The best thing I can advise is to keep a journal and learn from what you're taking in and how much of it you took. But that requires that the provider has the information. So it's all about being an educated consumer, really paying attention to your body, and always understanding that that variability is always going to be there, but you can work with it and kind of roll with the punches.” - Anita Sommers“You can never say, ‘Always’ in biology. That's why I have continuing education credits that I have to complete every three years to maintain the ability to diagnose infectious diseases in the microbiology department because everything is constantly evolving.” - Anita SommersSPONSORSHIP is brought to you by Restart CBD.
