A Healthier You in 2007

January is alway a time of reflection and setting goals for the New Year. Wayne Geilman, Ph.D., a nutrition and food consultant has created a list of seven simple steps for a healthier you in 2007.

• Eat seven or more servings of fruits and vegetables daily.
• Take the stairs and burn an extra 10 calories a minute.
• Stop and smell the roses to elevate your mood and relax.
• Get at least seven hours of sleep to replenish your body.
• Drink at least eight glasses of water daily and your coffee and sodas don't count!
• Take a daily vitamin supplement to make sure you have all of your required nutrients each day.
• Eat probiotics to support your digestive system and protect it against bad bacteria.

When you take care of yourself you are able to love and serve others in a healthier way. Maintain your balance of mind, body and spirit for a blessed 2007.

Until next week,

Gina
