You committed to health and happiness. You placed your Plexus® order. You stalked the mailman. The order arrived! You tear open the box, and now you’ve got a lovely stash of health and happiness products sitting there on your counter, just waiting to change your life.
And then the questions come.
“Can I take this right now?”
“Can I take this before bed?”
“Do I have to take this with food?”
“What do I mix this in?”
“I love this stuff! Can I take more right away?”

“Do I have to take this with food?”
“What do I mix this in?”

We know that it’s always a little bit overwhelming to get started on a new supplement or dietary routine (which is why you should always talk to your doctor before doing so). And of course, you should always follow suggested use guidelines from the product labels.
But if you’d like just a little more help navigating your new health and happiness regimen, you’re in the right place. We’re going to take an up-close, in-depth look at how and when to take your Plexus products to make sure they’re giving you the results you’re looking for.
Because as good as they look on your counter, they won’t do you any good just sitting there.
