Self Care

Last year I mentioned that part of your self care also includes making sure you are attending your annual routine check-ups, whether that is with the dentist or your medical provider.

When it comes to your annual check up, If you don’t do it already I would encourage you to request a comprehensive panel of blood work to be done to check that everything is looking good.

Along with the panel of blood work you may also want to check with your provider about possible nutrient deficiencies which tend to be common:

* Vitamin D

* Magnesium

* Copper and Zinc (check for imbalance)

Knowing this information will also provide you an idea of whether or not you need to be taking certain supplements.

So go ahead, be proactive and schedule your annual check up and talk to your medical provider.
