BREAKING NEWS!!!!!

I’m PREGNANT.

Oh, wait, we already knew that…

Okay…

How about THIS for BREAKING NEWS then…

I’M A DRUG ADDICT. 

joey friends no really

Er, um, Well… NOT EXACTLY.

thank god iron man

In fact, NO, NOT EVEN A LITTLE BIT.

However, when people see me poppin’ 10 pills at a time, and then throwing back 10 more after swallowing the first batch, sometimes even without water, it always seems to leave those who witness this wondering if they should be concerned and/or planning an intervention for my “addiction”.

KERMIT THE FROG CONCERNED

But please, do let me explain before you start googling rehab centers in Los Angeles for me (although I have to admit, if you were thinking about doing that, I am pretty flattered that you’re truly concerned for me and my unborn child’s health).

You see, while you may be worried about my health (and perhaps the growing golfer’s health too)… After learning about my habitual pill poppin’ ways… Don’t be. Because honestly, I am concerned enough for the both of us, which is WHY I take all these capsules and Kratom pills. You may also Buy Ethnobotanicals In Canada if you want to try kratom products.

Prior to becoming implanted with my little alien (and now you’re all probably thinking my “drugs” are making me believe I was abducted by ETs)… I took a lot of supplements including, multivitamins, vitamin D, digestive enzymes, probiotics, etc. thanks to my auto-immune diseases, food allergies, and digestive issues. However, since learning about the imp growing in my uterus (yes, IMP, after all, he is Landon and my child…) I began taking even more, because well, mini Landon is greedy as FORK and needs all the nutrients he can get.

To further convince you that I am not hopped up on “apple jacks”… Watch the latest GiGi Eats where I explain exactly WHAT I am putting in my mouth while pregnant and why!

Now that we’ve cleared all of that up (and you’ve stopped googling rehab centers for me)… I am sure you all are way more curious now about who my “supplier” is because I know you want to get your hands on some of THE GOODS I throwback for me and my future bambino’s health.

Well, if you click up there on your browser to open another tab and type in iHerb.com you will be taken to MY SUPPLEMENT HAVEN! I’ve been using this site for YEARS.

I remember when I was younger, I used to do what girls who are obsessed with clothing/fashion/shopping do… I would fill up my cart with all the vitamins/minerals/supplements/food products I wanted and then… Leave the cart for a few days to think about if I actually wanted the products. But then I would come back and… OHHH NOOO!!! The cart would be empty, thus I would have to fill it again (and would wind up finding even more things I wanted) and BAM… CHECK OUT!

Oh but then… My mom would say that she saw the full cart and ordered all the supplements for me!

WHOOPS! 

oops-gif-12

Lately, though, I have been filling my cart over at iHerb.com with Nature’s Way products, and sadly, since my mom and I don’t share an account anymore, I don’t surprisingly come back to an empty cart, because well, it’s a brand I have been taking for a long time and trust to fill the nutrition gaps I may be lacking considering my diet is limited thanks to my autoimmune diseases and food allergies/intolerances (as mentioned earlier).

Speaking of filling the gaps… Below is a list of the products I highlight in my video where I discuss what supplements I am taking during pregnancy and why…

Prenatal Nature's Way

Natures Way Choline

Nature's Way probiotic

nature's way fish oil

Nature's Way Vitamin D

Natures Way Magnesium

Fruit Source Vitamin C Natures Way

I highly recommend you watch the video to hear WHY I am taking these specifically and consider these supplements for yourself (even if not pregnant)… Because we could all use a little BOOST, right?!
