The healthiest you…where to begin. Let’s not make that a question…it’s a statement. Begin being the healthiest you by making good choices. By being positive. By beginning to be the healthiest you possible. You got this. You aren’t alone. We’re in this together. For ourselves. For our futures. For our lives.
The healthiest you…where to begin
For me…I know digestive health is where I need to start. I know, because my IBS rules my life, and I need to balance that to begin. However, you might be wondering where your starting point lies…
- When it comes to starting a healthy lifestyle, 40 per cent of Canadians are overwhelmed and don’t know where to begin;
- 44 per cent of Canadians are unsure if they are taking the correct vitamins and supplements to suit their needs and a whopping 31 per cent do not take them at all for this reason
- 61 per cent of Canadians agreed that when it comes to taking supplement they wish someone would clearly identify what they needed to take
With the number of options and amount of information available, trying to select the right vitamins and supplements for a healthier lifestyle can be overwhelming. Jamieson Essentials™ makes it easy by identifying the four products that best meet the health needs of Canadians -> Omega-3, probiotic, vitamin D and a complete adult multivitamin (accessible at major drug/grocery stores and affordable for budgets).
Tweet it out loud: You deserve to be the healthiest you possible. You can do it! #JamiesonEssentials
Here is how I am working on being the healthiest me possible:
- I have a weekly walk date with a neighbour. It makes me accountable for being active. It is a regular activity (rain, snow, or shine). It gives me a chance to catch up with a good friend. And it reminds me to make my health a priority (sometimes hard to remember – especially for SAHM and WAHM people).
- I am taking those probiotics. Single. Day.
- I am shifting my mind from “fitness” to “feel well” – what makes me feel good about myself and the skin I’m in.
- I get up and walk around, run up the stairs, do a squat, stretch a bit…throughout the day.
- I am eating well.
- I sit down with my kids, every night, at dinner where we chat about all the things in our days.
- I sleep. OK – this I have down…I am GOOD at sleeping…send me to bed right now and I’ll show you 🙂

I love the idea of switching to “feel well” instead of “fitness.” I’m going to try that!
Hi Caroline, you have got your priorities absolutely right! Congratulations on taking these steps to a healthy you! In addition to probiotic capsules, you could also add probiotics like sauerkraut and fermented vegetables to your diet. Also Lot of vegetable/fruit juicing and /smoothies! I have been on a mission to control my autoimmune disease through diet since the past one year. Nice meeting up with you. You can find a lot of healthy paleo recipes on my blog.
I am trying to get healthy and this post can help SO much! Thank you! I need some probiotics to start with and I need a recipe book like that!
I’ve started taking probiotics every day too. They are really making a difference in how I feel.
Supplementation is the foundation for everything else. You need a strong base, and all your vitamins and minerals are that base.
I never miss my supplements. Ever since I started supplementing I’ve felt so good. I’ll have to give these a try.
I just started to take Omega-3’s and B vitamins. It is important to take the best care of yourself so you can take care of your family.
Omega-3’s and probiotics are two things I need to start taking. I will have to look for these when I do my shopping this week.
I love the idea of switching to feel well…..I’m going to check into taking some probiotics!
I would love to start taking probiotics. Maybe I wouldn’t get so sick so often. I always drink a lot of water, so no issues there. Sleep though is an issue for me. I don’t get much of it.
I love this post! It feel awesome when you are taking the right vitamins and living a healthy lifestyle. I’ll try all these tips. Thank you.
I need to start taking probiotics. I think it’s great that you are wanting to be the healthiest you can be.
I love the idea of walking dates with my neighbors. So fun! Great tips!
