How to easily boost your daily well-being with oils and supplements
Our bodies are designed to be in balance, but in today's world, that balance is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain. Our diet contains far fewer nutrients than before, we receive an overload of stimuli daily, and chronic stress exhausts our system. The result? Less energy, a weaker immune system, and a greater need for support.
Fortunately, with simple adjustments, such as the use of essential oils and high-quality supplements, you can strengthen your well-being and support your body in a way that suits the challenges of this time.
Let's delve deeper into why this is necessary and how to integrate it into your daily routine in an effortless way.
Why extra support is needed: nutrition, stress, and stimuli
1. Our diet contains far fewer vitamins and minerals than before
You might think that a healthy diet provides enough nutrients, but research shows that fruits and vegetables have lost up to 75% of their nutritional value in recent decades.
According to research by the pharmaceutical company Geigy (1985-2002), the amount of essential minerals and vitamins in fruits and vegetables has dramatically decreased.
Some notable declines:
- Calcium in broccoli: -73%
- Magnesium in spinach: -76%
- Folic acid in broccoli: -62%
- Vitamin C in strawberries: -87%
Causes of this decline: soil depletion, air pollution, overly rapid crop growth, and prolonged storage and transport.
Even if you eat healthy, it can be difficult to get enough essential nutrients. This impacts energy, immune system, and mental resilience.
2. We receive an overload of stimuli
Our brains now process up to 74 gigabytes of information per day, according to a study in Science (2011). Our ancestors processed only a fraction of this.
What causes this mental overload?
- Constant screen time (phone, computer, TV)
- Continuous stream of messages and information
- Work pressure and multitasking
- Artificial light and lack of nature
According to research in Frontiers in Psychology (2020), this leads to:
- Faster mental fatigue (brain fog)
- Poorer focus and concentration
- Higher cortisol levels (stress hormone)
3. Chronic stress and an overloaded nervous system
Prolonged stress increases the production of cortisol. According to a study in Psychoneuroendocrinology (2020), chronically high cortisol levels can lead to:
✅ Less energy and concentration
✅ Disrupted hormone balance
✅ Reduced immunity
This is where essential oils and supplements can offer natural and effective support.
How essential oils boost your daily well-being
Essential oils act directly on the nervous system and the limbic system, which regulates emotions, stress, and relaxation. They can help to:
✅ Reduce stress and improve relaxation
✅ Improve focus and mental clarity
✅ Support the immune system
✅ Optimize sleep
Simple ways to use oils daily:
For more energy and focus:
- Diffuse peppermint and lemon in the morning
- Apply a drop of rosemary (diluted) to your wrists
For relaxation and stress reduction:
- Use lavender and frankincense in a roller on the temples
- Add a few drops of ylang ylang to a warm bath
For a stronger immune system:
- Diffuse eucalyptus and tea tree during autumn and winter
- Apply a blend of oregano, lemon, and coconut oil to the soles of your feet
These small rituals can naturally boost your daily well-being.
Why supplements are essential in this day and age
Due to the depletion of our food, it is harder to get all essential nutrients from food alone. Supplements can help to replenish deficiencies and thus support energy, immunity, and recovery.
3 essential supplements for daily well-being:
1. Magnesium – the ultimate anti-stress mineral
- Supports relaxation, muscle recovery, and sleep
- Helps with energy production
- Much less common in food (-76% in spinach!)
2. Super-B – for energy and hormone balance
- Essential role in cells/mitochondria
- Helps with mood swings and stress regulation
- Essential for many processes
3. Vitamin D – essential for immunity and respiratory health
- 60% of Dutch people have a deficiency in winter
- Supports the immune system and bone health
- Helps with mental resilience
Tip: Combine vitamin D with K2 for better absorption and effectiveness.

By adding small daily steps, you support your body naturally and build more energy, balance, and resilience.
