    hey it's Kimberly and welcome back to my
  • 00:00:01
    channel I make videos on all things
  • 00:00:03
    Lifestyle on a budget and I don't want
  • 00:00:05
    to put up my light so I'm going to be
  • 00:00:07
    sitting on the floor in front of some
  • 00:00:09
    natural light and that is where the
  • 00:00:10
    video is going to be and if it looks
  • 00:00:12
    really good maybe this is my new little
  • 00:00:14
    setup today we're going to get right
  • 00:00:15
    into it I'm talking about the two most
  • 00:00:17
    advertised supplements that I've seen um
  • 00:00:20
    on Tick Tock the last couple of months
  • 00:00:22
    and I say advertise because this is
  • 00:00:24
    basically like most people are talking
  • 00:00:25
    about I don't think they're sponsored um
  • 00:00:27
    it hasn't been specific Brands it's just
  • 00:00:29
    the actual supplements themselves and so
  • 00:00:32
    I was like you know what I've been
  • 00:00:34
    working out a lot I started back in the
  • 00:00:37
    gym back in November was hitting it hard
  • 00:00:39
    for a really long time and I was like
  • 00:00:40
    maybe I need these things too to help
  • 00:00:42
    with my workouts to help with some
  • 00:00:44
    internal issues that I was having it's
  • 00:00:46
    been a couple months now and that's why
  • 00:00:48
    I'm gonna bring you an update on my
  • 00:00:50
    personal experience using these feel
  • 00:00:52
    free to share down below your personal
  • 00:00:54
    experience so far two supplements that
  • 00:00:56
    I'm going to be talking about in this
  • 00:00:57
    video that I have been taking personally
  • 00:00:58
    for the last couple of months
  • 00:01:00
    L-glutamine and magnesium glycinate and
  • 00:01:03
    now let me look up when I purchase these
  • 00:01:05
    on Amazon so I can give you exact dates
  • 00:01:08
    so you'll know that no I have not been
  • 00:01:10
    using this for only a week and here's my
  • 00:01:13
    results I've been using this for months
  • 00:01:16
    and I want to share with y'all so let me
  • 00:01:18
    just see real quickly when I actually
  • 00:01:20
    ordered both of these okay so I ordered
  • 00:01:23
    them February 13. today it is May 9th so
  • 00:01:26
    February March April May solid three
  • 00:01:28
    months of using these supplements and I
  • 00:01:30
    just want to say for both of them I
  • 00:01:32
    still have plenty left the L-glutamine
  • 00:01:34
    is 120 capsules it's a four month supply
  • 00:01:37
    and then the Magnesium glycine is
  • 00:01:39
    actually a six month supply so the good
  • 00:01:42
    thing about these is that they are
  • 00:01:43
    affordable and they will last you so you
  • 00:01:46
    can take it for the duration and
  • 00:01:48
    actually feel like you're getting like
  • 00:01:50
    the most bang for your buck for
  • 00:01:51
    L-glutamine I got it from the now
  • 00:01:52
    supplements brand this is 500 milligrams
  • 00:01:55
    these are veggie capsules I'm vegan so
  • 00:01:57
    it's important that I don't have any of
  • 00:01:58
    the gelatin or anything like that with
  • 00:02:00
    in the way that the capsule is made I
  • 00:02:02
    only spent 9.99 for the Magnesium
  • 00:02:04
    glycinate it's 400 milligrams 180
  • 00:02:06
    capsules like I said vegan as well and I
  • 00:02:09
    played I paid 11.95
  • 00:02:12
    let's dive into L-glutamine first I feel
  • 00:02:15
    like I have seen this the most uh the
  • 00:02:17
    information and it's one that I wasn't
  • 00:02:19
    familiar with so I want to do the most
  • 00:02:21
    research before buying it I'm just going
  • 00:02:23
    to show you what the pills look like so
  • 00:02:25
    you can see there's what one looks like
  • 00:02:26
    I'm trying not to touch it because I
  • 00:02:28
    already took mine today so I don't want
  • 00:02:29
    to just be digging my hands in for no
  • 00:02:31
    reason I'm going to be reading a lot of
  • 00:02:33
    information on so I can pass it on to
  • 00:02:34
    you so that you can make a decision on
  • 00:02:36
    your own whether this is worth it or not
  • 00:02:37
    so L-glutamine is the supplement form of
  • 00:02:40
    glutamine which is the most abundant
  • 00:02:42
    amino acid in our body already in your
  • 00:02:44
    body so you do already have this and L
  • 00:02:47
    glutamine meaning that it's just a
  • 00:02:48
    supplement form help to build muscle uh
  • 00:02:51
    bone and tissue helps with brain
  • 00:02:53
    digestion and your immunity system so
  • 00:02:55
    L-glutamine in general comes in a powder
  • 00:02:58
    form or a pillow form I just chose to do
  • 00:03:00
    the pill instead some of the benefits of
  • 00:03:02
    L-glutamine in general are wound healing
  • 00:03:06
    gut health say you had IBS your immunity
  • 00:03:08
    for weight loss Muscle Recovery so where
  • 00:03:12
    I fit into that is that I wanted to use
  • 00:03:14
    it for the digestion I also wanted to
  • 00:03:16
    use it for Muscle Recovery because as I
  • 00:03:17
    mentioned from November on I've been
  • 00:03:20
    really extensive in the gym I was you
  • 00:03:23
    know hitting the gym I have a video on
  • 00:03:25
    the actual workout that I was doing
  • 00:03:27
    um I was really going hard and to be
  • 00:03:29
    consistent with that I wanted something
  • 00:03:30
    that would help with like my Muscle
  • 00:03:32
    Recovery let me also mention I should
  • 00:03:34
    mention this at the beginning but I'm
  • 00:03:37
    also a professional dancer so I think
  • 00:03:40
    that does play in with the athleticism
  • 00:03:42
    that I already have and how my body is
  • 00:03:44
    functioning that might be different from
  • 00:03:45
    someone that doesn't have exercise
  • 00:03:47
    regularly in their life doesn't
  • 00:03:50
    necessarily have the same chemical
  • 00:03:51
    makeup so they're using these products
  • 00:03:54
    it might have different results there
  • 00:03:55
    are some side effects to L-glutamine for
  • 00:03:58
    some people bloating nausea dizziness
  • 00:04:00
    stomach pains also you want to look up
  • 00:04:02
    on your own there are people that
  • 00:04:04
    shouldn't take this if they have certain
  • 00:04:05
    health conditions or disorders it's
  • 00:04:07
    highly beneficial to take L-glutamine on
  • 00:04:09
    an empty stomach or specifically without
  • 00:04:12
    high protein rich foods I feel like
  • 00:04:15
    that's not mentioned a lot and people do
  • 00:04:17
    say oh I have a stomach ache with it or
  • 00:04:19
    I felt really sick after again
  • 00:04:20
    L-glutamine amino acid building blocks
  • 00:04:23
    of life taking it with high protein rich
  • 00:04:25
    food is too much for your body to break
  • 00:04:27
    down so apparently El glutamine won't
  • 00:04:29
    absorb as well so it is recommended that
  • 00:04:32
    you take it on an empty stomach or
  • 00:04:34
    within an hour of eating that high
  • 00:04:35
    protein rich food so an hour before hour
  • 00:04:37
    after I found that really interesting
  • 00:04:39
    and so I was personally taking it when I
  • 00:04:41
    woke up on an empty stomach and I don't
  • 00:04:44
    feel any sort of way after now let's get
  • 00:04:46
    into my experience I'm definitely
  • 00:04:48
    regular which is great can I attribute
  • 00:04:50
    it to that was I regular before I would
  • 00:04:53
    say I was regular before but there'd be
  • 00:04:54
    some bloating days here and there that I
  • 00:04:56
    wasn't really sure where it was coming
  • 00:04:58
    from I don't feel that on um L-glutamine
  • 00:05:00
    I would say in the past three months or
  • 00:05:03
    so that I've been taking it
  • 00:05:05
    maybe I've been bloated less than five
  • 00:05:09
    times so to me that's really good Muscle
  • 00:05:12
    Recovery is a strong possibility I was
  • 00:05:15
    able to go about I'm able to go every
  • 00:05:18
    other day to the gym which is really
  • 00:05:20
    great is that contributed to the
  • 00:05:22
    L-glutamine or is that because my body
  • 00:05:24
    just got used to going to the gym
  • 00:05:26
    frequently over time
  • 00:05:28
    like I said also too I'm professional
  • 00:05:30
    dances so getting into that mode of
  • 00:05:31
    being Physically Active is not something
  • 00:05:34
    strange to me
  • 00:05:36
    um I'm used to it I just spent like the
  • 00:05:37
    last five minutes trying to articulate
  • 00:05:39
    what I was gonna say and I just had to
  • 00:05:40
    look it up this is one thing that I feel
  • 00:05:42
    like I missed by just saying like oh it
  • 00:05:44
    helps with weight loss so what I was
  • 00:05:47
    trying to say is that I felt like when I
  • 00:05:48
    have the L-glutamine in general I
  • 00:05:50
    noticed that I feel like Fuller longer
  • 00:05:52
    or more satisfied it says to put it
  • 00:05:55
    simply glutamine can help weight off by
  • 00:05:58
    reducing your food cravings and giving
  • 00:06:00
    your body more energy I think that
  • 00:06:02
    that's actually true I'm curious for an
  • 00:06:04
    update when I stop taking it to see if
  • 00:06:07
    there are massive changes because I
  • 00:06:08
    don't necessarily want to be on the
  • 00:06:09
    supplements like all my life alglutamine
  • 00:06:11
    I'm gonna say
  • 00:06:14
    it works it's not a miracle worker but I
  • 00:06:17
    think it's beneficial
  • 00:06:20
    now let's move on to magnesium glycinate
  • 00:06:23
    let me just say I absolutely love so the
  • 00:06:26
    first thing to know about magnesium is
  • 00:06:27
    that that there are multiple types it's
  • 00:06:29
    an essential micronutrient kind of like
  • 00:06:31
    vitamin D many of us have a magnesium
  • 00:06:33
    deficiency and we just don't know about
  • 00:06:35
    it magnesium glycinate benefits lowers
  • 00:06:38
    blood pressure it can reduce stroke it
  • 00:06:40
    prevents migraines reduces PMS that's a
  • 00:06:43
    big one helps with sleep reduces pain
  • 00:06:45
    amplifies your exercise relieves anxiety
  • 00:06:48
    there are natural sources of magnesium
  • 00:06:50
    I'll put a photo up so you can see seems
  • 00:06:52
    to me like the most beneficial thing is
  • 00:06:54
    just constantly have dark leafy greens
  • 00:06:55
    that seems across the board to be like a
  • 00:06:58
    win for everyone but anyway there are
  • 00:07:00
    side effects to magnesium glycinate
  • 00:07:02
    watery diarrhea yuck and upset stomach I
  • 00:07:06
    hopped on this train out of curiosity of
  • 00:07:08
    the idea that many people have a
  • 00:07:10
    magnesium deficiency I did see something
  • 00:07:12
    interesting online that talked about how
  • 00:07:15
    uh indication an indication of a
  • 00:07:18
    magnesium deficiency would be like the
  • 00:07:19
    dark circles under your eyes I had
  • 00:07:21
    mentioned to y'all before that that's
  • 00:07:23
    something that kind of popped up
  • 00:07:24
    recently or I started noticing and I was
  • 00:07:26
    using things to brighten it the only
  • 00:07:27
    thing with that is that I still kind of
  • 00:07:29
    have them so maybe it's not so
  • 00:07:31
    interconnected another symptom would be
  • 00:07:33
    eye twitching I've had that
  • 00:07:36
    sporadically throughout my life and I
  • 00:07:39
    was sort of restrained it's like your
  • 00:07:40
    eye would just be like
  • 00:07:42
    I definitely haven't had an eye twitch
  • 00:07:44
    on here so I feel like that is a true
  • 00:07:47
    thing uh maybe I did have a deficiency
  • 00:07:49
    at some point and now it's no longer in
  • 00:07:52
    general I've always been a really good
  • 00:07:54
    sleeper except when I was mentioning to
  • 00:07:56
    y'all that certain vitamins I take I'm
  • 00:07:58
    still standing by this I haven't figured
  • 00:08:00
    out why but there's certain vitamins
  • 00:08:02
    that I would take that suddenly my sleep
  • 00:08:04
    would be disrupted certain supplements
  • 00:08:06
    as well turmeric I'm looking at you I
  • 00:08:08
    was taking turmeric again recently for
  • 00:08:11
    just to see if it would help with
  • 00:08:12
    inflammation on something and I
  • 00:08:14
    immediately noticed my sleep was
  • 00:08:15
    disrupted regardless of the fact that I
  • 00:08:18
    was taking magnesium and I was like
  • 00:08:19
    you're out of there forget you so it
  • 00:08:22
    makes me wonder is it the pill
  • 00:08:24
    construction that's causing issues or
  • 00:08:27
    something else because different types
  • 00:08:30
    of vitamins throughout my life
  • 00:08:32
    immediately affect how I sleep back to
  • 00:08:35
    magnesium even though I I'm a good
  • 00:08:37
    sleeper I have noticed a massive
  • 00:08:38
    difference in how I sleep on magnesium
  • 00:08:40
    it's just always a deep sleep it's just
  • 00:08:43
    always very relaxing when I wake up I
  • 00:08:45
    wake up refreshed I might mentally be
  • 00:08:48
    like I'm tired but physically I'm
  • 00:08:50
    actually not this is just gonna you know
  • 00:08:52
    Carry Me lovingly and I'll wake up
  • 00:08:55
    feeling good now in regards to the PMS
  • 00:08:57
    usually for me I have like a a rough-ish
  • 00:09:01
    first day and I use that lightly I would
  • 00:09:04
    say if my pain is like a six and I know
  • 00:09:07
    that there are other people out there
  • 00:09:08
    that like they have a pain and a 10 so I
  • 00:09:10
    want to go with the six because it'll be
  • 00:09:12
    like Oh I'm uncomfortable but like I'm
  • 00:09:15
    not gonna take anything for it so on
  • 00:09:18
    with magnesium I've noticed the same
  • 00:09:20
    thing it's like my period is like a blip
  • 00:09:22
    on the radar for me I would just give
  • 00:09:24
    magnesium glycinate a 10 out of 10.
  • 00:09:25
    we'll continue to use it I love that I
  • 00:09:27
    have a six month supply yeah I take this
  • 00:09:30
    at night before I go to bed that's it I
  • 00:09:33
    don't need to take more than one so
  • 00:09:34
    that's my review on what I consider the
  • 00:09:36
    two most popular supplements that I've
  • 00:09:38
    seen online right now that people are
  • 00:09:39
