Even pretzels are being touted as low-fat as if there was a time when they were not.And while our modified-fat food choices continue to expand, so do our waistlines.

How to Tune Up Your Marketing Efforts for Better Results and More Profits
Published:04/01/2012 06:55pm
One of the most important elements of profitable marketing is often the most difficult for solo service professionals to maintain. That is sharing your solutions consistently. To keep your pipeline filled with ideal clients who happily and readily pay for your solutions, you MUST market your business regularly (meaning EVERY week...YES, that often).I find though, that many service professionals feel that they don't have time to do so.

What type of messages do you think are going on inside your child's mind?

What You Don't Know About Diabetes CAN Hurt You
Published:03/24/2012 10:37pm
I often hear people refer to Type 1 Diabetes as "the really bad diabetes" because people have to take insulin with type 1 diabetes. However, did you know that with Type 2 diabetes blood sugars start to go higher than normal up to 10 years before you are diagnosed?This means that for up to 10 years blood sugars higher than normal can start to do damage to the body and by the time someone is diagnosed they can already have permanent damage to nerves and blood vessels.

What is Inflammation?Inflammation is the body's reaction to infection or injury. Classic signs of inflammation are redness, swelling and pain.
