The supplement industry bombards consumers like yourself with a multitude of different products, each claiming to be indispensable. It can be overwhelming and stressful navigating all the options and determining which ones you actually need.
Here at Bowmar Nutrition, we do things differently. We understand that not everyone's needs are the same – suggesting that would be unrealistic. That’s why we’ve simplified things for you. Below we’ve laid out the basics, the products that every individual can benefit from incorporating into their diet.
Do you consume AT LEAST 2 servings of fatty fish every week? Be honest. No? Figured. And that’s okay because full transparency, neither do we! This is where Fish Oils come in.
Our Fish Oil softgels are concentrated omega-3 pills. Omega-3s are fatty acids that are essential for the human body to function properly and cannot be produced by the body. This means we need to get them through one of two ways: either by consuming fatty fish or by supplementing with a high quality omega-3 supplement.
Taking Fish Oil ensures you are getting the omega-3 fatty acids you need!
Collagen Peptides:
Another question for you, are you aging, getting older, celebrating birthdays? Yes? Then you need to be taking a collagen supplement!
Collagen’s primary job is to protect, strengthen, and repair the integrity of our body’s different connective tissues! Our bodies naturally produce collagen, but as we age we produce less and less, which can lead to some pretty unfavorable health issues such as: weak bones and muscles, achy joints, brittle hair and nails, and wrinkly, dull skin.
Did we mention that lifestyle habits such as chronic stress, smoking, sun exposure, and poor diet can also affect collagen production? Well they can!
Using a high quality collagen supplement like our Collagen Peptides can improve your collagen production while simultaneously reinforcing healthy joints, restoring youthful skin, hair, and nails, and revitalizing your body from the inside out!
Get this – a SHOCKING 90% of adults do NOT consume enough fruits and veggies everyday. Yup, 90%! It’s crucial that you have a variety of green colored fruit and vegetable sources in your diet.
In comes Greens, making it easier and more affordable to consume your fruits and veggies. They bridge the gap between the fruits and veggies you SHOULD eat vs. what you ACTUALLY eat. Our superfood formula is loaded with the vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants necessary to improve digestion, boost the immune system, promote overall health and wellness, and fill those nutritional gaps.
We just talked about the importance of consuming ample amounts of fruits and vegetables. What we didn’t mention was how different colors offer varying amounts of essential micronutrients as well as unique forms of phytonutrients that the body needs. Your diet should include a variety of colorful fruit and vegetable sources.
Greens are an excellent option for ensuring you consume green-pigmented fruits and veggies; however, Reds + Purples provide a distinct micronutrient profile, along with digestive enzymes. They specifically focus on increasing natural energy levels, improving digestive health + nutrient absorption, supporting the metabolism, and fighting off daily environmental stressors.
Both enhance overall health and well-being, but their primary focus and nutrient profiles differ based on the colors of the ingredients they contain! That’s why we have both of these products on this list.
Regularity – it may not be the prettiest topic, but it's certainly an important one. If things aren’t moving as smoothly as they should (irregular bowel movements), odds are you're not consuming enough fiber. Ideally, for every 1,000 calories consumed, you should also aim for 14g of fiber. That means on average one should be consuming at least 25-30g of fiber every day.
Our Fiber supplement provides 30% of your daily fiber requirement in a single serving! A high fiber diet will help normalize bowel movements, reduce unwanted bloating, and improve overall gut health by removing toxins from your colon.
While a balanced diet should provide enough fiber, many fall short. Our supplement fills this gap for those who may not consume adequate amounts.
Another fun fact for you! More than 70% of your health is housed in your gut. When your gut is out of whack, it can leave you feeling sick, fatigued, and/or bloated constantly. By keeping your gut in check, you can improve your mood, reduce bloating, and relieve other painful gut symptoms!
Probiotics are an essential supplement for gut health. They are live, friendly bacteria that help rid your intestines of the bad bacteria that can overpopulate due to stress and other gastrointestinal disturbances. Maintaining healthy gut bacteria contributes to over well-being by improving painful gut symptoms, promoting the repair of digestive tissues, supporting immune function, and improving mood and energy levels.
Beef Liver Capsules are what we would call a security blanket for your health! They provide a concentrated source of essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients crucial for your body’s well-being. Think of them as being “nature’s multivitamin.”
Every adult can and will benefit from taking them regularly, especially those that don’t like eating organ meat. These capsules affect all aspects of health, such as hormone regulation, immune health, gut function, cardiovascular well-being, skin health, and MORE.
Immunity Support:
Do you like being sick? No, that's not a trick question. We all answered “no” though, right?
In today’s world, there’s a lot of “ick” right now as far as sicknesses and illnesses go. That combined with stress, lack of sleep, poor nutrition, and other lifestyle factors can leave us with a weakened immune system, making us more susceptible to getting sick.
Maintaining a healthy immune system is essential for overall health and well-being. This is where Immunity Support comes in. It keeps your immune system in fighting shape with Vitamin C, Zinc, Magnesium, and other vital antioxidants. A daily dose of Bowmar Immunity will help you fight off colds and keep your body’s immune defenses in check!
One final question for you! Are you using protection.. during screen time?
If not, you need to be. Time spent on screens continues to increase, this means so does our exposure to blue light. Excessive exposure to blue light can cause short and long term issues such as headaches, dry eyes, eye fatigue + strain, and retinal damage.
Lutein+ is the blue light blocker you don’t have to wear. It fortifies your eyes from the harmful effects of blue light. Plus, it’s safe for EVERYONE — pregnant women, infants, children, young adults, adults, and seniors can benefit from taking it!
Conclusion:
From immune support to gut health and blue light protection, the supplements we just listed can benefit EVERYONE. We hope this helped you get an idea of where to start with nutritional supplements!
