Methylated b vitamins

Methylated B vitamins can be especially helpful for those with methylation pathway issues.

Strong consensus

Strong consensus

“grass-fed beef insane but how they do the research they take 100 head they put 50 on grain leave 50 on on grass when the ones on grain get fat they kill them all guess what the ones that grass are not as fat or lean”

Water filtration

Filtering water is a simple way to reduce exposure to unwanted substances.

Strong consensus

“water needs to be filtered and remember in order to filter toxins like that out of the water we must use a reverse osmosis or a distillation type filter”
