Maria's Daily HealthCare Routine

Maria’s Daily Healthcare Routine for Real Life and Real Aging

In her recent masterclass, Maria shared her personal daily healthcare routine, revealing how she supports her body now that she is in her 60s. This was not about following a perfect plan or a strict diet. Instead, it focused on listening to your body, adjusting with age, and building simple daily habits for long-term health.

Understanding Health Through Life Stages

Maria emphasized that our health needs change at every stage of life:

• What worked in your 30s and 40s may not work the same in your 60s

• Energy, hormones, sleep, stress, and recovery all shift with age

• The goal is to work with your body, not against it

Maria’s Three Pillars of Health

Maria structures her life around three main pillars:

1. Relationship with God

   • Foundation for peace, purpose, and emotional stability

2. Lifestyle

   • Focuses on eating well, staying hydrated, moving her body, getting enough rest, and managing stress

   • No supplement can replace poor lifestyle habits

3. Implementation

   • Daily choices around products and supplements to fill nutritional gaps

Nutrition and Fasting

Maria does not follow a named diet. Her approach focuses on reducing inflammation and supporting energy.

Modified Fasting:

• Fast twice a week in a gentle way

• Sometimes only water, oils in water, and a small meal like an egg

• Adjust fasting according to age, stress, and hormone changes

Diet Focus:

Carbohydrates:

• Limited intake

• Mostly from root vegetables like sweet potatoes and potatoes

• Small amounts of rice or wraps occasionally

• Avoids pasta, pizza, and biscuits

Gluten:

• Avoided completely due to joint pain and inflammation

Protein:

• Eggs regularly, even on fast days

• Fish about once a week

• Focus on maintaining protein intake as she ages

Vegetables and Fruit:

• Large amounts of leafy greens, broccoli, bok choy, and salads

• Fruit limited to 1–2 servings per day due to sugar and inflammation

Immune System and Stress Connection

• Chronic stress weakens the immune system

• Stress affects hormones, sleep, and inflammation

• Managing stress is as important as diet

Aging Well in the 60s

Supplemental Support:

• Magnesium

• Protein

• Omega-3

• Vitamin B

• Sleep

Key Focus Areas:

• Slower recovery

• Greater impact of stress

• More inflammation if not properly supported

Sleep as a Priority

• Aims for 6–7 hours per night (typically 11 pm – 6 am)

• Lack of sleep raises cortisol

• Poor sleep accelerates aging and stresses adrenal glands

Hydration, Minerals, and Heat

Living in a hot climate requires extra attention to fluids and minerals:

• More fluid loss and faster mineral depletion

• Lower energy if not replenished

• Daily habits:

  • Drinks filtered water regularly

  • Adds lemon essential oil to water

  • Takes mineral supplements

  • Focuses on replenishing trace minerals, not just magnesium and calcium

Lymph Flow and Movement

• Lymph flow slows with age, increasing fluid retention and inflammation

• Daily walking helps move lymph

• Weight training remains important for bone strength

Hormones and Thyroid Support

• Hormone needs change in the 60s

• Supports thyroid and adrenal glands daily

• Uses regular saliva hormone testing

• Adjusts supplements and oils based on results

Key Message:

• Testing provides clarity

• Hormone balance impacts inflammation and long-term health risks

Daily Oils and Supplements

Used to support:

• Hormones

• Thyroid

• Adrenals

• Heart and circulation

• Stress response

• Immune system

• Muscles, bones, and joints

Main Principle:

• Consistency matters more than intensity

• Small daily actions lead to long-term results

Q & A Highlights

Topics covered included:

• High cortisol and stress

• Blood pressure support

• Reducing daily inflammation

• Detox reactions

• Joint and muscle support

• Adjusting support during stress or illness

Maria also addressed online health trends, reminding attendees that not all popular advice is helpful. Her approach remains simple, practical, and based on understanding your own body.
