Keys to a Healthy Winter!

It is inevitable this time of year....EVERYONE is sick! Kids are sick at school and passing it from one to another, your co-workers have that constant cough from the desk next to you, you suffer from a headache multiple times a week-if not everyday, stress levels are through the roof, you see Kleenex's and cold medicine scarce on the shelves in the stores, you fear touching anything in public places (like door handles, elevator buttons, shopping carts, and arm railings) for fear that you might catch the latest "bug," and you dread the awful F word...FLU! There I said it....anyone with me?

It is so sad to me that the most common "status update" that I have seen in the last week is something like this...."I am sick and tired of being SICK and TIRED!" Isn't this supposed to be "the most wonderful time of the year?" Then why is it that our kids get sick, then we get sick, then our kids get sick again, then the dog gets sick, and we get it again? It is the VICIOUS cycle of the SICK SEASON and it is upon us YET AGAIN! But, does it have to be this way? Are you ok with entering another "flu season" just HOPING for the best, and giving your doctor more money for every visit you will be taking? Or, are you ready to make some possible changes in keeping your family healthy this holiday season and beyond?

Let me give you a few facts:
*The average adult will have 2-4 colds/year, lasting for 3 weeks
*The average child will have 12 colds/year
*Daily: 220,000 see their doctors because of headaches
*1 in 2 Americans die of cancer
*65% of Americans are overweight
*23.6 Million Americans have Diabetes
*94% of hospitalizations are lifestyle induced
*By age 65: 85% of Americans are on 19.6 prescriptions
*Daily: $45.2 Million is spent on prescription drugs
*Of 42 countries, the US rates DEAD LAST in health, but spends more money on healthcare than the other 42 countries combined!

So what is the solution? We MUST learn how to keep our immune system healthy- NATURALLY! Let's face it, the prescriptions aren't fixing the problem, but rather putting a "band-aid" over the problem "...until next time." Let's stop letting ourselves get sick and start keeping ourselves healthy!

If you suffer from one or more of those top statistics, and you want to learn more about how to break that cycle, I invite you to join in on a recorded webinar that Nathan and Jenni Oates did about "Simple Steps to a Healthy Winter." This is an amazing couple, personal friends of ours, that struggled with EVERY kind of health issue, but now they are healthy, and have 3 amazing, healthy children that have NEVER been to the doctor! I invite you to listen in to what has worked for their family, for our family, and for millions of people around the country and world in keeping themselves healthy through these rough sickly months!

After you listen, I would love your feedback in what you heard that could make a difference for you and your family!!

Here's to a HAPPY and HEALTHY Holiday Season!
