Is Holistic Health Out of Your
Comfort Zone?
Are you willing to go out of your comfort zone and tweak what you are doing to maximize your quality of life?
My intent is to provide tactical athletes education resources to optimize their health holistically.
You got it on the tactical side, let's add in the holistic health part.
I hope this helps you improve your health holistically so, like a sun-kissed glow, you radiate a healthy, "tactical glow" on the inside and outside. Take care.

Medicinal Plant Introduction
Some foods may influence medications/medical conditions. Talk to your Primary Care Manager about the right fit for you.
We recommend whole foods over a supplement. Your body understands whole foods, not supplements. If you decide to take a supplement, check it beforehand. Supplements are not controlled by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
If you take the supplement, most absorb better with food. Also, many foods have numerous health benefits which is why we recommend whole foods plant based nutrition.
