Our Next Challenge: “Fill Your Plate”

Hello Everyone!

Wanting to Lose Weight? Wanting to Have More Energy? Hoping to Stay Healthy This Fall and Winter?
Our next challenge is to help you to get water based foods such as fruits and vegetables into your diet.

Starting October 22nd and running through Thanksgiving, we will be encouraging all participants to increase their daily intake of fruits and vegetables. We will be opening this challenge at our Health Talk on Tuesday, October 22, 2013 at 7:15. This challenge will be called “Fill Your Plate”.

The average person consumes less than 10 percent of fruits and vegetables with each meal. The goal for the first week of the challenge, October 22nd, is to become aware of the percentage of fruits and vegetables on your plate. Is it 10%, 20% or more? Each week we will be challenging you to gradually add more water containing foods to your plate and less of the other stuff. The ultimate goal is 50% of your plate being water containing foods = fruits and vegetables for benefits like stronger immune systems, weight loss, disease prevention, and more energy.

We hope you will join us for this next fun challenge!!

Red Wine and Your Gut?
“You’ve probably heard that red wine can be a very healthy drink option, but you most likely only heard about generic benefits of the antioxidants and resveratrol in red wine.”

Trace Amounts of Copper Linked to Alzheimer’s Disease
“Copper is an example of a heavy metal that’s a nutrient at low concentrations but extremely toxic at higher levels. Your body uses copper for bone growth, nerve conduction, hormone secretion and more; yet in excess, and especially in non-organically bound form, it’s been linked to oxidative stress and brain damage that may lead to cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease.”

Do Vaccines Cause Autism?
“Share this video with everyone you know. Why? Because it explains the real story of how the vaccine industry is damaging countless children while getting away with murder through a special vaccine court that screws parents and favors the interests of Big Pharma and the government.”
