Enjoying Summer with Smart Stack

July 3, 2018 By in Lifestyle Tags: , , , , , , , , , 12 Comments

I have started paying more attention to my health and skincare since hitting the big thirties. Health is wealth, and being a busy mum of 2 very active toddlers means I have to be on top of my general health to keep up with them. I recently came across Smart Stack by Smart Nootropics and I have been taking it religiously everyday.

For those who have never heard of this food supplement, it is a complementary stack built to improve focus, memory, energy and concentration. It consists of Alpha GPC, L-Theanine, Rhodiola Rosea, Acetyl-L-Carnitine, Bacopa Monnieri, Guarana, Magnesium, Zinc, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12 and Black Pepper Extract. All ingredients have been carefully picked to help increase productivity and mental clarity.

 

The Benefits of Smart Stack

Smart Stack is a dietary supplement made in the UK. There are quite a number of benefits you could get from taking these supplements everyday. The benefits I am most interested in are –

 

Energy Levels

These supplements will improve my energy levels which is what I need the most. Summer means long days and short nights, and with this current heatwave, some days can be very hard. Juggling the home and work full-time is exhausting. But with the right diet, rest and food supplements like this Smart Stack, I can go about my day with sufficient energy levels. I am sure many mothers would find this supplement very handy.

 

Memory and Focus

As a work from home or from anywhere mum, I need to focus on quite a number of things to get my work done quickly and properly. Errors are expensive and time-consuming. So it is very important to get things done right first time. I also need to remember what needs to be done each day since everyday is different. And with the many school activities lined up for the kids in the next few weeks, I need to ensure my memory is sharp. There is nothing worse than forgetting your child’s school trip day or dental appointment.

Smart Stack helps improve memory and focus, so this supplement is now my new best friend. I will be taking it everyday.

Mental Clarity

Smart Stack also helps improve mental clarity which is a big one for me. I am easily stressed so I am pleased this food supplement would be able to help. Working from home alone comes with many issues. My busy schedules and few hours of sleep (on some nights) can affect my state of mind. So I am pleased to know that my mind will benefit from this dietary supplement.

A pack of Smart Stack contains 90 tablets. It currently retails at £21.59 as there is a discount going on. But the normal price is £23.99.

The brand recommend taking 3 capsules daily to gain the desired effects. Also, the capsules are not to be taken in the evening due to its caffeine content.

How Much Is Too Much?

There has been so much noise lately on how much is too much to spend on fashion. Some days ago, a top Nigerian gossip Blogger – Linda Ikeji, was slamed for showing off her expensive bag collection on Instagram, and there was this big argument on whether her handbags were fake or original. Which makes me wonder where we draw the line on how much to spend on looking fashionable. If my bank account was loaded with millions of pounds, would I spend so much money on a Birkin? Would it even cross my mind? I really don’t know because the reverse is the case, lol.

The lifestyle of the rich and famous is all about the flashy life alongside the heavy price tags. A parking space in central london could fetch £335,225 (this amount can buy a house in Cheshire), a Bugatti Veyron sports car could go for £1.8 million, so a Hermes handbag going for as much as £15,000 or more, would look like a reasonable purchase to the rich and famous.

The likes of Hermes can justify their crazy prices, all their bags are hand-woven and it takes 5 to 7 years to train the craftspeople making the leather handbags, and the prices reflect that investment. These huge prices from luxury designers also ensure the exclusivity of their products. The designers want to be sure ONLY certain people have access to their products, hence the heavy price tag. Imagine if we could grab a Hermes bag for £500, as expensive as that sounds to majority of us, many would still rob, steal or borrow to afford it, unlike the £15,ooo and above price tag which is above our reach.

Personally, I love handbags, they are one of my fashion weaknesses, but I see prices like Hermes as over the top. I am happy to spend below £500 on a handbag (less on shoes), so anything over £500 for a handbag is my too much. I like my Michael Kors, Karl Lagerfeld, Calvin Klein, Coach and the likes, but anything above that limit is a no-no for me. I won’t be able to afford it, and even if I could, I won’t be able to justify spending over £500 on a handbag to carry my junk.

Most of my bags are well below £500. I am also not into vintage, second-hand or counterfeit handbags, I only rock new and original bags, and everything I rock has to be new and original. I don’t do fakes, and it annoys me when I see people carrying fake bags and wearing fake shoes, and try to pass them off as original, and I see this a lot.

So there you have it, that is my ‘too much’ Is there a ceiling on how much you can spend on luxury purchases? Drop me a comment, lets chat.
