Introductions

My name is Ahri Evelyn and I’m sharing my knowledge of health and wellness because health and wellness is life. My life. Your life. Everyone’s lives. I’ve always wanted to help people and share my knowledge with others to help them be healthy and well.

My life of health and wellness started at age 2 when I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. From then on, my goal in life was to stay healthy and feel good. Even when I was that young, I would ask the adults in my life giving me food if it has “oogur” in it. Of course everyone thought it was adorable, but even at a young age, I was thinking of my own health and wellness.

Down the line, in high school, I was put on antidepressants due to anxiety and depression. A few years later, in my first year of college, I started working at a supplement store and began learning everything I could about anything I could get my hands on at the store. I learned about all the vitamins, minerals, several, if not all the other natural supplements the store carried, different functions of the body's many systems, how different components work together, and I began learning about the sports nutrition supplements as well. I was told by my manager there that I was the quickest learning pupil she has had in her 35 years in the supplement industry. I learned so much and absolutely loved educating the customers who came in. I got a rush every time someone came up to the counter with a question.

After I had been with my manager at this store for about a year and had been experimenting with several supplements on my own, I decided I needed to get off the antidepressants I was put on in high school and switch to something more natural like the supplements I educated customers about every day at work. After about two months of testing things out and going on and off the meds, I successfully left them behind me and learned about myself and my body in ways I never would have otherwise. 

This blog will serve as my tool to help other people and to this day, I am still learning. If you have any questions about anything, please feel free to ask. Leave your questions either in the comments section or submit it through the email below depending on your comfort on anonymity. You can even give me additional information on what I'm posting about. I welcome questions and new information with excitement, so please don't hesitate to ask!

I try my best to advise of any possible side effects of certain supplements, but everyone is different and everyone reacts to new or different supplements differently. I cannot foresee anyone in particular having a particular side effect. Please take my recommendations and apply them to your own life in a way you are most comfortable.
