WHERE TO SHOP

Below you will find places to shop that support a healthy lifestyle - many of which I personally have found useful over the years.

FOOD/BEVERAGE & HEALTH/BEAUTY

SUPPLEMENTS & HERBS

Before you purchase any supplements, please read My Supplement Philosophy and be sure to contact your favorite FNTP (that's me!) or another trusted health care provider for guidance.

PHARMACEUTICALS

LABS

Did you know you can order certain labs for yourself? This is an especially helpful tool when insurance is an issue (e.g.: no health insurance, high deductible, or limited coverage), those seeking elective procedures, private payers seeking confidential results, or when your primary health care provider(s) will not write an order for you.

This type of service empowers individuals to take control of health care and associated costs while monitoring their overall wellbeing. Select states have varying regulations, and therefore some restrictions may apply, but by and large, there are many tests you can purchase yourself. If you are having difficulties finding a particular test, contact me as I may be able to help.

SHOES

It's important to take care of our feet. If you've ever noticed your dogs barking, that means they aren't happy and the rest of you won't be either. The more comfortable and supported they are, the more likely you'll be to get out and get moving. And if they're stylish to boot, you'll also have an extra pep in your step as you show them off!

SLEEP

Getting a great night's sleep is paramount to health and there are lots of ways to promote it. Having the just the right accoutrements will make the experience as easy as 1...2...Zzzzz!!!

SMOKING TOBACCO, HERBS, NICOTINE, VAPING, & ACCESSORIES

TOOLS

Whether it is something for your kitchen, a project around the home, a device to support health, or a supply for a hobby, having the right tools can take the stress out of routine chores, make maintaining a healthy lifestyle even easier, and make favored past times even more enjoyable.

EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES

FUN STUFF

The below is the epitome of retail therapy! What is more fun or relaxing than strolling (or in this case, scrolling) through stores that have the most clever, thoughtful, whimsical, artful, but somehow still very useful items? You don't even have to "like" shopping or be a "mall rat" as even the polar opposite of shopaholics appreciate this kind of activity from time to time. It's kind of like going to an art museum packed with useful conversation pieces, and is a great way to de-stress while appreciating creativity and craftsmanship. Who knows, you may even find something for that one person on your list that is just about impossible to buy for! Bonus!!!

HOBBIES & RECREATION

How many of you wish your hobby was your day job? Many do. It can be difficult to find time to do the things we truly enjoy but doing so keeps us grounded, wards off stress, gives us a way to express ourselves and boosts creativity, exercises our minds or bodies (or both!), nurtures relationships, and affords opportunities to grow and share. It's not hard to appreciate that health benefits go hand in hand with these wonderful attributes including lowered blood pressure and cortisol, enhanced mood, and relaxation. Whether it is wood working, music, learning a new language, dancing, the arts, tinkering on an antique car, bird watching, playing pickle ball, or making a craft, all hobbies can be valuable contributors to the vitality of the body, mind, and spirit.

BUSINESS BUILDING

Whether starting, maintaining, or growing a business, reliable resources with competitive pricing is critical to success. Here are some excellent places to shop for your needs.

A little retail therapy is a good thing!
