INNER CIRCLE: 5 Minutes With Maria Adam

Founder and owner of Biovitality reveals how she unwinds, her essential wellbeing saviors, plus how she achieves some blissful balance amongst it all 

Location: NYC

Hometown: I was born in Denmark Hillerod, and am half Danish, half French, and Persian! I speak many different languages and am fluent in Danish, English, Persian, and French.

My path into Naturopathy, nutrition, homeopathy and integrative medicine started for two reasons. My own experience having grown up with different infections and recurring tonsillitis saw that I was always on antibiotics leaving me with low energy, digestive issues, and some health concerns that wouldn’t come right. I wanted to improve my health more naturally. Secondly, making a difference in my patient’s lives is so rewarding - when a patient tells me, “I don’t feel alone going through my cancer treatments, as your remedies help me with side effects of chemotherapy and help me to stay calm,” it reaffirms that this is my journey. I feel blessed about what I do.

I spend my downtime and release tension by getting massages and hopping into an Infrared Sauna. I take care of myself nutritionally by drinking my green smoothie filled with spinach, Kale, Spirulina, bananas, coconut water, and other goodies that give my body a boost. I firmly believe that taking care of yourself is not only a luxury; its a must!

The secret to my success is that I try to work with my conscience and with honesty and integrity. I genuinely care about helping people. I look at a patient’s fundamental constitution, to really understand the cause of imbalances and determine how to remedy it.

My natural health saviors are making sure I eat a variety of colorful foods packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber to support a healthy gut, which I feel is essential for a healthy immune system. These ‘rainbow’ foods are also great natural anti-aging tools!

My current skin saviors are 100 percent organic Rosehip oil - I have sensitive skin, and if I don't use the right product, my skin breaks out. I love Ilia foundation, and make sure I always apply Sunscreen before - The Organic Pharmacy’s Cellular Protection Sun Cream SPF 50 works for me. For a natural glowing touch to my skin, I use some RMS Beauty’s Luminzer and contour with their Buriti Bronzer.

My nighttime routine consists of winding down by using my diffuser with a preferred essential oil while moisturizing my body with an oil or a cream. I either read a book or reflect on my day to see where and how I can improve and grow in my businesses, followed by reviewing my to-do list in my diary for the next morning to feel prepared. I also take my evening homeopathic remedies regularly for my body to feel balanced.

I get my mojo back by spending quality time with my family, and I love reading books, and doing exercise (in any form, swim, skiing and pilates are my favorite. I take functional supplements and homeopathic remedies regularly and drink my superfood smoothie or green juice, depending on what my body needs for the day.

My go-to daily’s to feel my ultimate best are probiotics, vitamins C & D for immune support, I also use Raw Organic chocolate powder in foods and use BV MAG complete.
