Our Family Favorites
Many people don't realize how damaging some products can have on our bodies. Beauty products, for example - there are loads of harmful chemicals used that have been linked to cancer, disease, inflammation, infertility and more. It's so important to know what you are using, where it came from and how it interacts with your body! These products that I will share with you come with complete trust - I'm grateful to be working with so many wonderful companies who make quality and efficacy important.
Where Do I Start?
Don't let yourself be overwhelmed - the best way to start is by starting.

Beauty + Self Care
I use essential oils combined with clean grassfed Tallow every day as a moisturizer and LOVE it! My skin soaks it up and it revitalizes it in ways typical products never did. I like to gently rub a few drops of Frankincense and then a few drops of Balance all over my face. Then I mixx a little tallow and Yarrow Pom in my palm and cover my face with that mixture. So simple, smells divine and works so well! *I prefer Lamb Tallow for my face because it's so gentle with a very mild scent, if any.
My favorites are:
Last, but not least dry brushing before a shower and sauna work is so helpful for our lymphatic system! It only takes 5 minutes and will change the entire way your body works that way. It opens up your drainage pathways so your body can filter and detox properly. I like to rub Zendocrine and DDR Prime all over my body before dry brushing or getting into a sauna to help with detox. Be sure to read my Lymphatic Support Guide!
Supplements
-
Iodine Drops - we have had the absolute most beneficial experience since starting on this! We also eat 2 brazil nuts daily for selenium and it's partner work with iodine. HERE is a great book to read more on the necessity of Iodine!
-
Cell salts daily when needed. HERE is a great resource for learning about cell salts and dosage. Our bodies are made up primarily of Cell Salts & Trace Minerals - we need to be actively replenishing this as our bodies need.
-
Drink Magnesium Bicarbonate regularly to help repair and strengthen our cells, which also aids in proper distribution of vitamins and nutrients, including Vitamin (hormone) D! If you are taking a VitD supp, but not feeling like you should, your body could probably use Magnesium Bicarbonate. Grab your MagBicarb powder and make your own! SO easy and cheap to do! This is a daily drink for us.
-
Cod liver oil
-
NAD - helps retain youthfulness within cells, which of course then aids in youthfulness outwardly. As we age, go through times of stress or illness, our body's NAD production decreases. It is imperative to support our body's NAD!
-
Vitamin K - this is helpful in properly distributing correct calcium (not ground rocks that is added to food) and hormone D (not "vitamin") to our bodies.
-
Elk Antler - SUPER support for men's testosterone! We like and use from here and here.
-
Pine Pollen - Great testosterone support for both men and women.
-
TRS sprays for maintenance now after a few months of heavy metal removal.
Food Sources
-
Bakercreek Seed Co. is our favorite place to order seeds! High quality and great customer service.
-
Azure Standard has great raw items as well as grassfed and finished dairy products and meat! We get most of our food that we don't raise/grow ourselves from here, including our grains.
-
Mountain Rose Herbs is where we buy all of our dried herbs for teas and tinctures.

Laundry Room
Our skin is our biggest organ - it matters how we wash our clothes because what we put on our skin gets absorbed!
-
We use wool dryer balls NOT dryer sheets😝 Dryer sheet companies aren't required to list all of their chemical ingredients - SUPER TOXIC!
-
We add essential oils to our dryer balls for a added fresh scent. These are some of my favorites.
-
We use vinegar in the wash as well as make our own soap. If we don't have some made or are traveling, we use Onguard Laundry Soap - smells amazing and leaves the clothes and machine clean!
Cleaning Supplies
Have little kids in the house? Do you walk barefoot? Do your pets go inside? If you answered yes to any of these questions - please use non toxic floor cleaners!
-
We use a lot of Onguard in our home - it's the best countertop cleaner because of it's effectiveness!
-
Because you eat off your dishes, it's important to use non toxic dish cleaner! You can use Abode concentrate or Onguard soap for hand washing and the Abode Dishpods for the dishwasher.
-
For Mopping- We add drops of Onguard or Lemon to our mop water or spray mop attachments.
