Vitamin Routine Tips: 6 Easy Ways to Incorporate Supplements Into Your Daily Life
Kylie · March 16, 2022
You’ve already taken the first step towards optimal health by investing in Manna’s liposomal supplements. In order to get the most out of your new vitamins and maximize your results, you’ll need to take your supplements regularly or as directed on the packaging. The best way to do this is by incorporating your vitamins into your daily routine. We understand that adjusting to this can take some practice, so we’ve put together our top 6 vitamin routine tips on how to successfully incorporate your supplements into your everyday routine!
Pair Them Up - Combine Taking Your Vitamins With Another Routine
One of the simplest and most effective vitamin routine tips is to combine taking them with another routine task. For example, if you always brush your teeth first thing in the morning, you could keep your Manna supplements next to your toothbrush and take them right after brushing your teeth. Or, if you usually have a glass of water before bed, you could take your vitamins then.
By attaching your supplements to another existing routine, you’re less likely to forget and more likely to make it a habit. Soon, you’ll start to do it without thinking. It takes, on average, 66 days for a new behavior to become automatic, and attaching it to something else you do on a regular basis only works to speed up the process, so stick with it and you’ll be on your way to better health in no time [1]!
Incorporating your vitamins into your daily living space will also help you to associate good health with the sight of your vitamins. Remember that leaving your vitamins in the sun for a while can affect their quality, so do your best to keep them shaded, especially when you’re on the go.
To be on the safe side, if you have animals or small children in the house, you may want to consider keeping your supplements in a place that’s easily visible to you but not accessible by your children or four-legged friends.
Schedule Them In - Pick A Time Of Day To Take Your Supplements
If you’re finding it difficult to remember to take your vitamins regularly, another way to make sure you get them in is to pick a specific time of day to take them. This can be any time that’s convenient for you, as long as it’s a time you can stick to.
By setting a specific time for taking your supplements, you’re more likely to make it a habit. Once you’ve been taking them at the same time every day for a while, it will become second nature and you won’t even have to think about it.
Most of our supplements can be taken when it’s convenient for you. It’s still a good idea to brush up on the specifics of each supplement you’re taking. For example, some prefer taking curcumin with a meal to prevent an upset stomach. Ultimately, your Manna supplements are here to work for you, so pick a time that fits your routine and stick with it!
Show Them Off - Leave Your Supplements Where You Can See Them
A great way to make sure you take your vitamins regularly is to leave them where you can see them. This could be on your kitchen counter, front and center in your fridge (for those that need to be refrigerated), or somewhere else in a central location where you will see them every day. By keeping your supplements in a visible place, you’re more likely to remember to take them.
A bonus is that, if you see that you’re running low on your Manna supplements, you’ll be more likely to reorder them promptly. Or if you’re like me and just can’t seem to get the timing right with each new order, utilize a subscription service. An automatic shipment will be sent directly to your door every 30-90 days depending on your specific needs.
Set The Tone - Set An Alarm Or Reminder On Your Phone
In our tech-savvy world, setting an alarm or reminder on your phone is perhaps the most easy and efficient way of remembering to take your supplements regularly. There are also some brilliant mobile apps that can remind you when it’s time to take your vitamins, and can even help you keep track of your progress. If everyone in your family takes their supplements at a different time, you could also set up a family reminder system using a shared calendar app. This will send reminders to each person when it’s time to take their supplements.
Tracking your progress in an app or even in your notes on your phone can also be extremely rewarding. You might not notice a difference day-to-day, but when you look back you’ll be able to see the positive effects that taking your supplements regularly has on your health.
Stick It Up - Leave A Note For Yourself
Writing a note for yourself with brightly colored sticky notes might sound strange but it can actually be one of the more effective vitamin routine tips. You could write something like “Don’t forget to take your Manna vitamins!” or “It’s time for your daily dose of good health!” and stick it somewhere that you’ll see it every day. If you have a hard time remembering to take your vitamins on an empty stomach, you could also write a reminder like “Take with food” or “Don’t forget to eat!” on one of your notes and put it somewhere that you won’t miss it.
Pairing your reminder notes with an affirmation of health can also help to increase your motivation for taking your supplements regularly. Something as simple as “I am healthy, and I deserve to feel my best!” can be enough to give you the extra push you need to take your supplements every day.
Make It Easy - Give Yourself the Best Shot at Health
Introducing a new daily or weekly habit into your routine can take some time to get used to, especially when you have a million other things on your mind. Making it as simple as possible to prioritize your health is essential if you want to form long-term habits that will optimize your wellbeing.
Using liposomal technology gives you the added benefit of significantly better absorption, especially when compared to the traditional tablet and powdered supplements.
You’re on Your Way to Optimal Living!
When it comes to incorporating new habits into your routine, it’s important to start slow and not overwhelm yourself.
