Essential Oil Tips to Boost Metabolism

Fact. Rarely will you meet a super healthy, successful person that doesn't supplement.

Food is our most effective medicine, but eating right won't take us all the way to our health goals. Why?

Because we don't get everything we need from our food. Due to soil depletion, GMO's, the ability to ship long distances, & food being on the shelf longer … food today is not as nutrient dense as it was just a few short decades ago. This is a big reason why I'm finally working on planting a garden.🌱

So today we're going to dive into some ways to help you actually reach your weight goals by boosting your metabolism in healthy ways, & ADDING some important things to how you eat.

You know what's great about that? So much of what you hear about losing weight is geared toward cutting things OUT of your diet. But I've discovered that when you ADD the right things, it squeezes the yucky stuff out of your diet naturally. 

Let me give you an example.

 When I'm craving the homemade chocolate chip cookies my son made last night (and he makes the BEST cookies!😋), I tell myself I can eat them … but only after I've had my green smoothie & the veggies I cut up to eat that morning. I might still have that cookie, but if I do, I'll consume far less than if I was hungry & downed 5 of them. I might not even want the cookie because I'm full.

Are you getting the picture?

So, let's get into some key things to include every day, & also learn how essential oils can help support you reaching your goal weight.

Top Tips for Boosting Metabolism

MetaPWR Metabolic Assist:

You guys…this actually SLOWS the conversion of carbohydrates to glucose (blood sugar), so instead of a giant spike & drop in levels, you’ll experience more narrow changes or an optimal curve. 

You can confirm this yourself by wearing a continuous blood glucose monitor throughout the day. Many new users are doing this & seeing the incredible difference in lack of blood sugar spikes throughout the day. Experience it for yourself! 

Just take 1-2 capsules with your largest meal of each day. If you want to speed up results you could also take a capsule with each meal. Each capsule contains the MetaPWR blend, active competent Mulberry leaf extract, & Cinnamon Bark powder. MetaPWR Assist has been shown to release glucose more slowly & lead to lower blood glucose levels after a meal. This changes the game. MetaPWR Assist:

  • May decrease post meal glucose spikes

  • Reduces absorption of simple carbohydrates

  • Supports healthy blood sugar responses

  • Stabilizes energy levels throughout the day

MetaPWR Advantage Collagen + NMN:

MetaPWR Advantage Collagen + NMN has been clinically developed to strengthen metabolic health by addressing healthy aging with NAD+, NADH, & collagen. 

The first changes I noticed while taking this myself were in my skin, energy, & ability to focus. I noticed the energy pretty quickly. The skin changes were more noticeable after about 1 month. I'm loving what I see (& don't see)! My skin tone is evening out & my face just looks healthier. Lines are less noticeable & sagging is reduced. I love this product you guys! 

Aging markers begin to show up in your 20s. By the time you reach 50 years old, your NAD+ levels (a coenzyme found in every cell in your body that’s involved in hundreds of metabolic processes) steadily drop, therefore declining your metabolic function. 

Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body. We can lose collagen in our bodies due to UV light, tobacco use, aging, & sugar intake. 

MetaPWR Advantage is made up of Collagen & NMN (a NAD+ booster), & contains nine types (yes NINE!) of collagen tripeptides which clinical research has shown to boost skin appearance by promoting skin density, increasing firmness, decreasing wrinkles, & improving hydration. 

Get ready to:

  • Recover faster from workouts

  • Move better no matter your age

  • Regain new strength during your workouts

  • Optimize your metabolic function

  • Increase your mental clarity

It's packaged in a single serve packet, just add to water. I actually love combining this with the doTERRA Greens product each morning. I like the flavor more this way & increasing your greens intake will also help your nutrition & weight loss goals.

For cravings:

The MetaPWR essential oil blend is my favorite way to decrease cravings. You just add 2-3 drops to your water bottle each time you fill it up. It tastes great, helps you get your water in during the day, & keeps cravings at bay. It's a perfectly balanced ratio of Grapefruit, Lemon, Peppermint, Ginger, & Cinnamon Bark essential oils to help you curb cravings & support healthy metabolic function when ingested.

Lifelong Vitality Pack:

This is one of the #1 products doTERRA sells the most of. Once you try it you won't want to be without it. It's a staple for me. It's that good.

This is your foundation & a very important partner to the MetaPWR products above. The first video further down below is of Dr. David Hill explaining why Lifelong Vitality is so important to include with MetaPWR for your metabolism goals…

Greens & Fiber:

These two are extremely important for maintaining a healthy weight.

I eat a ton of vegetables every day, but it's hard for anyone to meet what our bodies need just by eating vegetables. I've had trouble finding a “greens” supplement that I loved, but I LOVE THESE TOGETHER. 

I simply add a scoop of each to 10 oz of ice water. Then use an electric whisk for a few seconds to combine. It tastes fruity & yummy & I get a ton of fiber + greens into my daily diet that way . . . & there's no yucky ingredients in it. All good things. 

This is a really great way to start your day. You can also sneak it into all kinds of things for your kids.

Protein:

Protein & fiber are both part of what help your body to feel full, keeping you from digging into those brownies or cookies your kids made. 😉 

I've started my day with a green protein shake for the last 6 years. I love how it helps me have energy & be full.

But protein powders are not all created equal. In fact, it's super hard to find one without a bunch of ingredients you don't recognize on the label. Doterra created a “clean” protein powder that actually tastes good.
