    Does anyone have any advice about the supplements section? What are people doing? The supplement pack that Dr. Hyman has recommended is a little steep for my budget. Are you all using his packages? Have you found quality items elsewhere? Or are you skipping that part all together?

    • Some people are doing the plan without supplementation. Many people choose to take only certain supplements. I was already taking several of the supplements, so I added PGX, Alpha lipoic acid and BCAA. And ordered the Wellness essentials and magnesium (there are so many out there that I could not choose) from this site.
      I started the last 2 at the end of week 2. The rest I started in week 1.
      It is important that you do not let money hinder you from eating correctly and adopting a more healthy lifestyle. It will change your life for the better.
      Good Luck, Margaret

      • Thanks, Margaret! I completely agree that spending money on your health is the best way to spend it, but sometimes it just isn’t possible. I think I am going to ”step” into the supplements. Get the critical ones first and then move up from there.

        Thanks, Nicole

    • I bought my supplements online from a reputable source. I saved a lot! I trust this site but I am probably not allowed to give the name of it on here. My dog’s vet recommended the site to me when my dog needed to go on melatonin and flax lignans for atypical Cushings disease. I had some of the recommended things on hand but not all. There are cheaper alternatives out there.
