5 Sneaky Causes of Low Sex Drive in Women

Posted on

Let’s get straight to the point – having a low or non-existent sex drive can suck big time.

It makes you irritable, can create relational issues and downright make you feel less of a woman. 

Scientists and medical experts agree that the code to cracking the female libido is complex. Of course, aging and relational issues are major players, but they have discovered other sneaky reasons why you can’t get in the mood.

To help you better understand what might be causing your low libido, we rounded up Five Sneaky Causes Of Low Sex Drive and how Inno Drive: For Her can help you get it back.

5 SNEAKY REASONS YOU DON’T WANT TO “GET IT ON”

Certain Medications/Medical Conditions: Antidepressants, statins and birth control are a few medications known to induce deficient levels of sex hormones, leading to a non-existent sex drive. There are also certain medical conditions like arthritis, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, coronary artery disease and neurological diseases that can impact your desire and satisfaction. 

Too Much or Too Little Exercise: Almost all of your sex hormones can benefit from regular exercise. But over-exercising can cause these same hormones to bottom out. You want to find a good balance, especially considering that many women feel insecure when they are even slightly overweight, leading to not being confident enough to be physically vulnerable with your partner. 

Stress: Never underestimate the impact stress has on all aspects of your life, sex drive included. When your adrenal glands become depleted due to chronic stress, this causes your testosterone levels to tank. Healthy testosterone levels are critical for a woman’s desire. 

Skimping On Sleep: If you are exhausted, of course, you won’t want to get it on! Studies have discovered that, for women, just one more hour of sleep was linked to a 14 percent increase in the odds a woman would engage in sexual activity with a partner. 

Your Hormones Are Imbalanced: Last but certainly not least, you could be doing all of the above and still have unbalanced sex hormones. While it’s more likely to happen to women over 40, hormone imbalances can occur at ANY age. This is probably the number one reason women lack sexual desire. If you want to see if you have some of the symptoms of hormone imbalance, check out this quick read. There are 5 tell-tell signs you might be overlooking! 

WHAT YOU CAN DO TO GET YOUR SEX DRIVE BACK

Addressing those first four causes of low sex drive is gonna be up to you to nail down. Here are some of our suggestions that might help….

  • Never stop taking medications prescribed by your doctor. Talk with them if you think you are taking any medications that could be damaging your “drive.”
  • If you have issues with sleep, try creating a bedtime routine, limiting caffeine intake and supplementing with a nighttime sleep aid like Inno Supps Night Shred or Night Shred Black.
  • If you struggle to get to the gym, a pre-workout like Storm Maker can be your best friend! We have several pre-workouts to choose from. Some are even stimulant-free– like Max Strength HCI.
  • If managing stress is an issue, incorporate at least 10 minutes each day to focus on your mental health. Exercise, sunlight, meditation, yoga and journaling are excellent ways to lower stress. You might also want to check your gut! If your microbiome isn’t healthy, researchers believe it can significantly impact stress response. The Complete Gut Health Stack can help revitalize your gut health quickly! 

We’ve got you fully covered when it comes to that last fundamental cause of low sex drive in women (unbalanced hormones)!

You probably don’t need costly injections or creams to create hormone balance; most women just need to add a few key vitamins, herbs and minerals into their daily supplement regime! 

Inno Drive: For Her can help with that!

WHAT MAKES INNO DRIVE: FOR HER UNIQUE

Taken consistently, Inno Drive: For Her helps balance the hormones that work together to get you in the mood to have sex, make sex more pleasurable, and then help end things with a bigger .. umm .. well .. bang. 

Here’s a quick breakdown of each ingredient and how it can help skyrocket your sex drive and satisfaction in the bedroom.

KSM-66® Ashwagandha: Research suggests that men and women who consume ashwagandha experience increased libido, lubrication and satisfaction.

S7®: A combination of seven plant-based superfoods that has been clinically shown to effectively help the body increase its own nitric oxide production by up to 230% (essential for both energy and circulation where it matters most).

Epimedium: Also known as horny goat weed, epimedium is a known aphrodisiac.

Tribulus – A botanical known to naturally increase sexual desire, arousal and satisfaction in women. 

American Ginseng Root Powder – Studies show that ginger supports balanced hormone levels to help improve sexual health in women and increase sexual drive. 

Damiana Leaf Powder – A sexual stimulant and aphrodisiac that may  improve female sexual enjoyment. 

Ginger Root Powder – A stimulant that helps increase blood flow, which may help enhance libido and sexual arousal. 

Maca Root Extract – Maca has historically been used to boost fertility and sexual desire. Some studies even show that maca has the potential to treat sexual dysfunction in women. 

Shatavari Root Extract – A well-known aphrodisiac for women, this natural herb helps stimulate female libido and supercharge female sexual health. 

Niacin (B3) – An essential vitamin that supports healthy hormone levels –– it also acts as a vasodilator to increase blood vessel size, which improves blood flow and helps with sexual dysfunction. 

More B Vitamins (B1, B2, B6, B12) – B vitamins play a vital role in hormone function and support. They help nurture the nervous system, improve mood and restore your drive leading to increased sexual desire.

Zinc – Helps  improve bone density (especially in post-menopausal women), plus it supports healthy immune system function, wound healing and a healthy metabolism.

Inno Drive: For Her is formulated JUST FOR WOMEN, and we believe there is nothing else like it on the market!

Sure, there are other female libido boosters out there that have one or two of the ingredients in Inno Drive: For Her, but in our research, we found that even the “most popular” ones don’t have a crucial ingredient that is in Inno Drive: For Her – the second one on the list above – S7®.

Considering poor blood flow to the vagina affects a woman’s ability to even become aroused and have sexual intercourse, and what science says S7® can do to improve circulation and blood flow– we don’t believe a female libido booster is complete without it! 

We are so confident this supplement will help you see a marked improvement in your sex game that we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee.

But don’t just take our word for it. 

Besides the reviews pouring in from our female customers and even males who are thrilled their lady has her drive back, Inno Drive: For Her is also endorsed by an actual doctor!

“Proper circulation and balanced hormones are vital for females to achieve peak sexual health and satisfaction. And Inno Drive: For Her contains the correct, clinically proven dosage of certain ingredients, which is why the women who take it report seeing incredible results, and why I highly recommend it.”  Cedars-Sinai Cardiologist, Dr. David Filsoof.

Tons of holiday feasts and treats with loved ones!

As a result, it can be hard to stay consistent with your fitness and nutrition…

So we put together a survival guide to help you stay on target with your health goals this season:

1. Practice portion control
One of the biggest mistakes people make is binge-eating during holiday gatherings.

Instead of immediately going back for seconds, eat a smaller portion and wait a bit…

Chances are you won’t feel as hungry and you’ll save yourself hundreds of extra calories.

2. Stay active during traveling Exercising while traveling is one of the best ways to stay in shape during the holiday season.

Ask a friend or family member to tag along to keep you accountable! It’s always motivating and enjoyable to have a partner supporting you through workouts even when you don’t feel like it.

So make sure you’re getting at least 7-9 hours of sleep every night.

5. Stay hydratedMany times when we crave a snack because we’re ‘hungry’?

Our bodies are actually just thirsty!

So instead of reaching for the cookie jar, drink a glass of water first. 

It’ll keep your metabolism active and also reduce your caloric intake!

Winter Bulk: 3 Supplements You Need For Gains Season

Posted on

‘Tis the season for making gains!! While you don’t have to time “bulking” with the seasons, many people prefer to bulk in the winter months.

With sweaters replacing swimsuits and so many high-calorie gatherings during the holidays, winter is a great time of year to increase your food intake and dedicate time to building as much lean muscle mass as possible. 

That said, there is a right and wrong way to go about it. 

The goal of bulking is to go hard in the gym and pack on as much muscle as possible without gaining excess body fat. 

It’s not difficult, but doing so effectively does require a specific strategy….. 

Lift Heavy + Less Cardio + Extra Sleep  + Eat More + Proper Supplementation 

The first three are pretty self-explanatory; it’s those last two where many people get bulking wrong. We’re here to show you how to bulk up the RIGHT way!! 

Eat More Protein

Protein will always be king for muscle growth. Your muscles need protein to grow. Choking down pounds of chicken breast gets old… fast. Not to mention, your muscles need a more fast-acting protein source following a strenuous workout. 

Inno Supps Clean Vegan Protein offers 24g of pea protein isolate, the most bioavailable and superior form of plant-based protein; it also contains an organic greens blend, antioxidant blend and digestive enzymes for clean whole body nutrition in every serving. 

And unlike other vegan proteins on the market, Clean Vegan Protein tastes amazing and is naturally sweetened with Monk Fruit, not chemicals or artificial sugar. 

Supplement With Creatine

Creatine is arguably the most research-tested and proven supplement available for strength and lean muscle gains. It is also crucial for faster recovery, which is needed when lifting heavy during a bulk. 

There are many forms of creatine on the market. One of the most popular is a super-concentrated form of creatine called creatine HCI. 

Inno Supps Max Strength HCl contains 2,000mg of creatine HCI, plus science-backed ingredients that amplify pumps and supercharge circulation. Max Strength HCI is the perfect supplement to add during bulking to help accelerate your muscle-building power and optimize your recovery so you can max every workout!

Amplify Your Lifts With A Pump + Endurance + Focus Formulated Pre-Workout

You must make the most of every lift during a bulking season. To achieve that, you need a quality pre-workout!

Storm Maker contains a unique blend of natural ingredients that will amplify your workouts by giving you clean, hard-hitting energy (without that horrible post-workout crash), increased blood flow for skin-tearing pumps, laser-focused mental drive for stamina and mind-muscle connection, and more strength and endurance so you can burst through plateaus and crank out reps beyond your previous limits!

If your goal with this off-season bulk is to maximize muscle gain while minimizing fat gain, make sure you’re adding Clean Vegan Protein, Max Strength HCI and Storm Maker to your supplement stack!

We hope you found this winter gains guide helpful! Happy bulking season!

3 Research-Backed Tips for Deep, Quality Sleep

Posted on

Did you know that over 40% of Americans are sleep-deprived? Not prioritizing sleep is detrimental to your health. It can cause:

Weight gain…

Cognitive problems…

A weak immune system…

Skin issues like fine lines and wrinkles…

Risk for diabetes, stroke, heart attacks and high blood pressure.

If you’re someone who can’t seem to stay asleep for longer than a few hours or constantly wake up multiple times throughout the night, follow these 3 research-backed tips to instantly improve your sleep quality:

1. Avoid screens (blue light) before bed

Blue light from our phones, computers and TVs ‘trick’ our brain into thinking it’s daytime. It sends out hormones to keep you wide awake.

Try finding other ways to wind down for bed like meditation, lighting candles or even reading a book. 

2. Optimize your sleep environment

Set up your bedroom for sleep success— ideally cool, dark and comfortable. Investing in a quality mattress and pillows that fit your comfort needs can also go a long way. 

3. Avoid caffeine and alcohol after 4PM

Caffeine and alcohol can take over 10 hours to fully exit your body causing issues falling and staying asleep. Avoid the nightcap and try a soothing drink instead like chamomile tea or warm milk.

But if you’ve tried them all and still have trouble sleeping?

==> Check out Night Shred— our best-selling nighttime sleep aid and fat burner. 

This natural sleep aid is clinically-shown to:

✓ Significantly enhance deep quality sleep

✓ Help you sleep faster and longer

✓ Wake up refreshed and full of energy

✓ Reduces stress and improves mental well-being

✓ Burns stubborn fat and boosts metabolism while at rest 

Happy snoozing!

3 Vegetables that Are Damaging Your Gut

Posted on

Are these 2 gut-harming “anti-nutrients” hiding out in your favorite veggies?

  1. Lectins – This “anti-nutrient” interferes with the absorption of nutrients, disrupts good gut bacteria and can even lead to leaky gut!
  2. Oxalates – This compound makes it harder for your body to absorb critical minerals and can even cause kidney stones in certain people!

It might seem easy to catch these 2 culprits on product labels and keep them out of your diet… 

But the truth is, even the healthiest vegetables contain these two compounds…

And in the right amount, they could be damaging your gut from the inside out!

Here are 3 of the healthiest veggies that are also high in harmful “anti-nutrients”

  1. Spinach – Leafy greens like spinach contain many vitamins and minerals, but just a half-cup of cooked spinach contains up 755 milligrams of oxalates!
  2. Beets – Beets are an excellent source of nutrients and research shows their nitric oxide content helps lower your blood pressure, but they’re also one of the vegetables highest in oxalates at 152 milligrams per cup. 
  3. Tomatoes – They may be high in vitamin c and fiber, but these members of the nightshade family also contain lectins that may trigger digestive issues in people with sensitive stomachs!

You might be tempted to cut these 3 vegetables out of your diet, but researchers suggest that the nutrients you receive from vegetables like these make them simply irreplaceable… 

So how do you protect your gut from the dangers of “anti-nutrients” without sacrificing healthy veggies?

We’ve made it easier than ever to protect your digestive tract with our simple “gut-health optimization process”…

We call it the Complete Gut Health Stack!

Here’s how it works:

  1. CLEANSE your system to flush out lingering lectins, oxalates and other toxins that may be hiding out in your digestive tract.
  2. RESTORE your gut microbiome by flooding it with good bacteria and digestive enzymes.
  3. REPAIR your gut lining from the inside out with powerful postbiotics.

The 3 products in the Complete Gut Health Stack are carefully created with powerful, natural ingredients to completely revitalize you digestive health!

5 Foods to Boost Your Libido

Posted on

You’ve probably heard people say, “you are what you eat.” We can say without a doubt that statement is true. But what about when it comes to your sex drive!? Is it really true that some foods can increase your libido and make sex more pleasurable?

There is no question that when you eat healthy whole foods, you feel better and have more energy, which has a domino effect on whether or not you want to “get it on.” 

Plenty of foods also promote circulation, which is essential to get ample blood flow to all the right places at the right time! 

But what about specific foods… like aphrodisiacs?

It seems that the science is still up in the air on whether or not these foods get you in the mood and promote pleasurable sex. But many researchers suspect the theory has some truth, mainly because of an increase in feel-good transmitters like dopamine and serotonin.

It can’t hurt to try, right? 

We did some digging and found the top 5 foods that you might want to pile on your plate daily for a bedroom boost! 

1. Raw Oysters – Oysters have been considered a natural aphrodisiac for hundreds of years. In addition to boosting dopamine, oysters contain zinc, which some research suggests can raise testosterone levels. Testosterone isn’t only important for the male sex drive. Women also need healthy levels of test for a robust sex drive. 

2. Dark Chocolate – Another aphrodisiac that claims to boost desire is cocoa, which is found in high levels in some dark chocolate. Additionally, an antioxidant in cocoa (known as flavanols) can help increase blood flow and relax blood vessels. Dark chocolate is also said to help increase serotonin and dopamine levels in the brain.

3. Beets – This root veggie contains a lot of nitrates, which convert to nitric oxide and may be beneficial for blood flow. Healthy blood flow is ESSENTIAL for making sex pleasurable. They only have 13 carbs per cup and are packed with fiber, so it’s certainly worth adding them to your grocery list.

4. Pomegranates – Research shows that eating pomegranates daily significantly increases testosterone levels. They are also high in antioxidants that can help to enhance blood flow, thereby improving your libido. 

5. Watermelon – This juicy fruit is packed with B vitamins that are said to help with stress management, sexual endurance and energy production. Watermelon is also a vasodilator, meaning it has the potential to be a “natural” Viagra. 

It certainly can’t hurt to add some, or all, of these foods to your diet regularly to see if you experience an increase in libido. But if you want a 5 foods to boost your libido to give your body natural herbs scientifically shown to increase desire and ensure your sex hormones are balanced, check out Inno Drive: For Her or T-Drive.

4 Habits to Break When Losing Weight

Posted on

Most people believe that diet and exercise are the most important factors of successful weight loss. No doubt, those are both crucial pieces of the weight loss puzzle. 

But there is more… 

You can’t ONLY be in a calorie deficit, do cardio and lift weights if you want to be healthy, lose weight and keep it off. 

There are 4 unhealthy habits you must break…

Bad Habit #1: Not Prioritizing Sleep 

Lack of sleep has repeatedly been linked to a higher body mass index and weight gain. That’s because sleep deprivation negatively affects the stress hormone cortisol and hunger hormones like leptin and ghrelin. Lack of sleep also robs us of the energy and motivation needed to exercise. 

Poor sleep quality is also a risk factor for weight gain. Eight hours of bad sleep isn’t any better than four hours of solid sleep. You must prioritize both sleep quantity and quality if you want to reach your weight loss goals. 

If you want to get the best sleep of your life, check out this best-selling thermogenic sleep aid. The natural herbs in this unique formula help you wind down, get into deep sleep faster, allow you to stay asleep longer and prime your body to accelerate the fat-burning process. 

Bad Habit #2: Ignoring Gut Health

When it comes to weight loss, your gut microbiome matters. Studies show a direct correlation between weight gain and low microbial diversity.

An unhealthy gut can alter the production of hunger hormones and is also said to increase inflammation, which may lead to weight gain and metabolic disease.  

The first step in creating healthy microbiome diversity is to cleanse your gut of toxic waste. This is our favorite natural cleanse that will get things moving and gently rid your body of POUNDS of build-up within 24-48 hours!

Bad Habit #3: Not Getting Enough Fruits + Veggies 

All foods, even healthy ones, have calories. But all calories are not equal. You must fuel your body with fiber, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants if you want to be healthy enough to lose weight and keep it off.

The best way to achieve this is to consume numerous servings of a wide variety of fruits and vegetables daily. This can be difficult if you don’t like vegetables and tend to lean toward only a handful of fruits. Fresh produce can also be costly, and if you are in a calorie deficit can be challenging to fit into your macro allowance. 

That’s where a quality greens powder can fill the gaps! One scoop of Inno Greens provides a daily dose of greens, nutritional fruit and veggie extracts, digestive enzymes and probiotics. Plus, they taste amazing! You will WANT to drink them!!

Bad Habit #4: Not Listening To Hunger Cues 

Certain circumstances can make recognizing and trusting our hunger and fullness cues challenging. Emotions, dieting, boredom, distractions, dehydration, and even some of the things we touched on above, like lack of sleep and poor digestion, can all impact hunger cues. 

You must learn to evaluate your hunger level and know the difference between TRUE hunger and other outside circumstances that merely make you THINK you are hungry. 

If you want some help with this, check out our favorite natural thermogenic + nootropic blend that is formulated to not only help suppress your appetite leading you to be more in tune with your hunger cues but also help you reach peak concentration and stimulate the fat-burning process!

Place just as much emphasis on breaking these four bad weight loss habits as you do calories and exercise, and we guarantee you will reach your fitness goals much faster and easier! 

Bulking vs. Shredding: What’s the Difference + What do I take?

Posted on

One of the most asked questions floating around the fitness space is people wondering if it’s possible to put on muscle and lose body fat at the same time. 

The answer isn’t black and white. Sometimes it’s possible to bulk and shred simultaneously, such as when someone has a significant amount of body fat to lose. But typically, it’s recommended to separate the two. 

To help you understand why, let’s break down the difference between bulking and shredding…

What is shredding?

Shredding (or cutting) is when you try to shred the excess fat that covers your muscles without losing muscle mass. This usually requires a slightly different training style, cardio and eating in a calorie deficit.

What is bulking?

Bulking is when you try to put on a good amount of muscle mass/ This typically requires a pretty hardcore training protocol and eating in a caloric surplus.

Knowing the difference between the two, you can see how logically bulking and cutting simultaneously isn’t probable.

That’s because….

  1. You can’t be in both a calorie deficit and surplus at the same time.
  2. You can’t be underfed and overdo it with cardio and endurance training without eating into some of your hard-earned muscle.

That said, there are a few diet hacks and supplements that can prevent you from gaining excess fat during a bulk and others that can help prevent muscle loss (and possibly even promote a little muscle gain) during a shredding season! 

Best Supplement Strategy For Shredding

1. Improve Your Metabolism – Diet and exercise will only take you so far if you are trying to drop body fat. Your metabolism has to be in tip-top shape! The best way to improve your metabolism is to eat plenty of protein, drink lots of water, lift heavy, incorporate HIIT intervals, get plenty of quality sleep and supplement with specific natural herbs designed to boost your metabolism! 

The Thermo Shred Stack is designed with your metabolism in mind! Each product works together to rev up your metabolism, hit fat cells from every angle and amplify fat burn (even while you sleep.) 

2. Tap Into Your Hunger Cues –  The most challenging part of a “cutting” phase is being in a calorie deficit. That is why it’s crucial that you understand your body and become in tune with your hunger cues. Plan your larger meals for times of the day when you know you will be hungriest, drink plenty of water and consider adding in natural herbs that can help suppress your appetite and enhance focus.  

This appetite-suppressing, carb-blocking, intensity and focus blend of natural herbs and nootropics can help with both – and is finally back in stock! Hurry and grab yours before it sells out again! 

Best Supplement Strategy For Bulking

1. Eat Plenty Of Protein – Your muscles are made of protein and require adequate amounts in your diet to grow and repair muscle tissue! Aim to consume between 1.2-2.0 grams per pound of body weight each day, with one serving always being a fast-acting, easy-to-digest protein immediately after lifts. 

Advanced Iso Protein is a quick, easy and delicious way to reach your protein goals any time of day, especially post workout. If you prefer a fast-acting non-dairy protein, this is the cleanest and best tasting vegan friendly protein on the market! 

2. Supplement with Creatine + A Pump Enhancer – Creatine is undoubtedly the most studied supplement in the industry and has been shown over and over to be an effective and safe supplement to help you build stronger and bigger muscles. Add a “pump enhancer” that will increase blood flow during your lifts, and you have a winning combo for muscle gain! 

One scoop of this pre-workout not only contains 5 g of Creapure®, the purest and most studied form of creatine, it is also formulated with Agmatine Sulfate, Betaine, HMB, L-Citrulline, Grape Seed Extract and more for skin tearing pumps, explosive strength and enhanced recovery!

WHAT IF YOU WANT TO BULK AND SHRED SIMULTANEOUSLY?

If you are going to attempt this, use caution. You will be training hard on limited calories, which could lead your body to start using muscle for energy. 

One way to offset this is to ensure you are consuming enough lean protein at every meal and supplementing with creatine (this is the purest form on the market) and essential amino acids like these natural BCAAs, to help ensure your body is burning fat instead of muscle tissue!  

Whether you are hoping to bulk, shred or attempt both, we hope these tips are helpful!
