Not long ago, I was asked what it is that makes the USANAEssentials™ so neat. I love the Essentials. I take them every day and they’re fantastic. I almost love them more than I love Ritz Crackers and Taylor Lautner — and that’s sayin’ something.
And now, without further delay, why I believe the Essentials are truly, well, essential:
Think of the Essentials as He-Man and She-Ra. The Mega Antioxidant (He-Man), as a stand-alone product, fights oxidative stress (Skeletor), the cell-damaging process that results from environmental pollutants and natural aging. The Chelated Mineral (He-Man’s twin sister, She-Ra) assists in the conversion of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into energy.
While both products are formidable forces in their own right, they can’t defend Eternia (your body) all on their own. But when their powers combine with the might of Grayskull (your cells, and the key to exceptional health), they form a fearsome partnership that delivers a one-two punch that provides maximum benefits. And maximum benefits make you feel fantastic. Kind of like that one time when you took a ride on He-Man’s mighty Battle Cat, aka Cringer.
So there you have it. If you are looking to take control of your health in 2011, the Essentials are an ESSENTIAL first step. Even if you're not in to super heroes!
Well, now the holidays are over, and we've got a long stretch of winter in front of us. So, now what?
First off: how about no New Year's Resolutions. I understand the reasons for resolutions, but realistically, how long do we stick to them? According to some articles I have read online, only 12% of people stick with their resolutions all year. I say, let's start the year on a positive note and not get frustrated right out of the gate.
Second: let's work on transformation, not on quick fixes. We can all find small ways to transform our day-to-day lifestyle. Make healthier choices like USANA's Nutrimeal Shakes (Chocolate Whey,Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry) and Nutrition Bars (Chocolate Fusion, Oatmeal Raisin, & Peanut Butter). Take the stairs. Keep yourself active to help fight seasonal mood disorders. Transform can last the entire year, maybe even a lifetime, which is a positive choice.
Third: simplify. After the holiday hustle and bustle, why not sit back and enjoy the silence. My tendency is to get back to my mile-long to do list. This year I am not going to do that. Instead, I am going to break my list into smaller pieces, to allow time for me to have fun and enjoy life.
Fourth: let's continue our holiday trend of treating others with respect. There is no reason we cannot be kind and courteous all year long. It will go a long was to help someone else have a good day, too.
For 2011, besides getting caught up on my huge stack of reading material, I will be focusing on (not resolving to) eating healthier and maintaining a healthier lifestyle. I am usually pretty good, but I want to recommit and be more focused. I will start by doing a RESET 5 Day High Fibre Cleanse in January, then will create a healthy eating plan and fun fitness schedule to help me make a lifestyle transformation, one that is realistic and that I can maintain. Will you join me?
Here's to a great 2011, I'm glad you'll be along for the ride.
