Optimizing Your Health In The Best Way


Self-care is essential in this life, because if we fail to practice it, then sooner or later we’ll feel the effects. The good thing is that self-care need not be an overly expensive or overly tiring process. If anything, making room for it helps nourish you. It’s life-affirming and can help you feel like a happier, more content person.

That said, better optimizing your health does require some primary knowledge and the willingness to test what works for you best. Just like exercise, not everything works for everyone. Someone may love a morning swim, others may enjoy taking their dog for a walk, while others powerlift in the gym, four days a week without fail. Better optimizing your health in the best way, then, must conform to the most official principles, but must also work for you.

How can you decide what works for you, and what should you try and test first? It’s worth asking these questions, because when it comes to your health, being on top of things is worth working towards.

So - how on earth are you supposed to get started? Let’s consider:

Read Into The Products


Reading into the products that you use can help you ensure more confidence when taking them. For instance, you might find that taking Vitamin D supplements helps you (especially in the winter), but how much Vitamin D does that supplement actually provide? Is it low strength, or as high strength as it states? What is the daily recommended allowance, and what happens if you go over that? Read into your products, and take pride in knowing how they impact on you. That can help you in the long run. This tip applies to most of the products that you use, especially those that you eat or drink and use on your face, body, and hair. For example, applying sunscreen is an essential part of your skin-care routine. Sunscreens protect your skin from sun damage and skin diseases and stave off signs of aging. Therefore, you want to make sure that your sunscreen truly offers the protection it promises and contains no harmful ingredients for people, animals, and the environment. Unfortunately, there are so many no-good brands in the market today, so be discerning about the products you buy and use.

Understand The Brand & History


Understanding the brand and history of whatever product you’re using can be important. In the best instances, brands will be all too happy to show you who they are, and their philosophy behind their business operations. Harvest HOC place can be defined in this way, as their intent to provide the best of nature permeates everything they do. When you do your research in this context, you can more easily understand the standards that help you trust a particular institution more. That in itself can help you follow the best health path.

Speak To Your Doctor


Of course, more than anything it’s important to speak to your doctor before taking anything, and before undergoing any radical transformation of your diet or supplementation. This is often recommended yet few people do it. However, if you have specific medical needs, or you’re choosing something that you may not be familiar with, it can be a good idea to ask your Doctor if this is a good idea or not. Only they know your medical necessities, and so it’s important to keep that in mind. This will help you optimize your health going forward, safe in the knowledge you’re on the right direction.

With this advice, we hope you can more easily optimize your health in the best sense.

Holiday Gifts for the Foodie

December 7, 2020

We are so excited to share with y'all our picks for this Holiday Season! The Elves at Wrapped Up N U have been working hard to find the best of the best items for everyone on your holiday list!

These posting may contain affiliate linking if you make a purchase I will make a fee from this but it does NOT change the pricing. Items on our guide may have been gifts to us in exchange for sharing, regardless all opinions are our own.

The Christmas Collection is available Dec. 1st through 25th


You’ll think Savor Patisserie’s macarons are too beautiful to eat -- until you’ve experienced their melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness! Made by hand, these yummy Instagram-worthy treats taste like they’re straight from Paris but are made in the heart of Texas by a woman-owned bakery. Just in time for the holidays is the Christmas Collection, with green Christmas Cookies, Mexican Hot Chocolate, Gingerbread, Candy Cane, and Eggnog! Or make your own box. Either way, know that they’re all made from a perfect mix of almond flour, egg white, and sugar surrounding a filling of ganache, buttercream, or jam -- but less than 100 calories each and gluten-free!



Established in 1979, The Vermont Maple Farm has three generations of our family currently involved in the production of our Certified Organic 100% Pure Vermont Maple Syrup. We started with 3,000 taps in 1979 and have grown to over 10,500 taps today. 

Located at an elevation of 1800 ft. in the heart of the "Green Mountains" of Vermont, lies our gorgeous maple sugarbush. Boiling season is a short period starting around March 1st and ending around April 15th, depending on the number of freezing nights and thawing days we have during this time. Before any boiling can commence you will find many of our, ever generous, family and friends, helping us with our long days in the woods, trekking through deep snow and navigating over brooks. We need to prep all of our sap lines that run from tree to tree and then eventually all lead back to the sugarhouse. We need to make sure that all lines are run correctly with no damage, trees tend to fall and take them out on the way down. They need to be high enough off the ground so they don't get buried by the snow. We also need to ensure there are no leaks or damage to any of the lines, those curious red squirrels like to nibble on them. After this is complete we tap the trees. This is done by drilling a 5/16th" hole in the maple tree and then gently insert a clear plastic tap into the tree. The tap is attached to, what we call a drop line, which is attached to a lateral line, which is attached to a main line, which finally runs all the way to our sugarhouse. The sap has a little help getting there, as we run a vacuum pump. This allows the sap to get to the sugarhouse as quickly as possible. That means we start boiling sooner! On average it takes 44 gallons of sweet sap of the maple tree to get one gallon of our delicious "Certified Organic 100% Pure Vermont Maple Syrup."


These delectable treats are sure to put a smile in your day! Made to order with our Certified Organic 100% Pure Maple Syrup!
Available in a Single Large Maple Leaf, Small Leaves - 4 pieces, 8 pieces, or 12 pieces.


This deliciously delectable spread is great on toast, bagels, English muffins, oatmeal, yogurt, ice cream, and the list goes on. Let your imagination be your guide.
It is 100% Pure Certified Organic Maple Syrup, nothing added! The process in which it is made creates a cream that is spreadable. You may also know it as Maple Butter. No dairy products added. It has 54 ANTIOXIDANTS, 4 of its very own, along with other VITAMINS, MINERALS & ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS. Enjoy!


Our Certified Organic 100% Pure Vermont Maple Sugar has 54 ANTIOXIDANTS, 4 of its very own, along with other VITAMINS, MINERALS & ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS. 
Enjoy this sweet treat on toast, waffles, french toast, in your coffee, on your ice cream, yogurt, oatmeal, sprinkle on apples, or whatever your hearts desire.

Sprinkle this sweet & savory on just about anything! Put it on steaks, fish, burgers, eggs, salads, corn on the cob, popcorn, even bacon! If you can't decide on just one, try our gift set!

Holiday Gifts for Pets

A home is not a home without a pet. No matter if your pet is big or small we want to pamper them and make them feel loved. So who doesn't buy them a little something to put under the tree? We are so excited to share with y'all our picks for this Holiday Season! The Elves at Wrapped Up N U have been working hard to find the best of the best items for everyone on your holiday list!

Kitty Cardboard is a small, women-owned, bootstrapped business, founded in 2017. After being set back by Hurricane Irma, they launched to the public in the fall of 2018!

They sell a cat’s most favorite item – a box! The idea was born when our CEO, Liene, noticed that, even though, her rescue kitty, Bella, had all of the kitten toys imaginable, cat tree, cat tower, cat bed, even outdoor cat house, at the end of the day, the only thing that Bella seemed to care about was the Amazon Prime box on the living room floor.


Why do cats like boxes? They make them feel safe, provide comfort, help deal with stress, and are a PURR-fect place for playing, hiding, of course, napping! So, she simply thought “Why not create a fun “meowbox”, designed specifically for cats, that would give my princess exactly what she wants, keep her healthy and active, while, at the same time, compliment my household interior?” Kitty Cardboard was born!

By frequently releasing new colorful designs, we let our feline friends celebrate the seasons and travel the world, or even explore MEOW-ter space, while their crazy cat lady takes PAW-some photos for their Instagram profiles!


Their mission is to raise brand awareness while creating a community of cat lovers around it. As their business grows, so does their main goal of helping cats-in-need find their FUR-ever homes and spread joy in their lives!
