6 Steps for Healthy Holidays
I absolutely love this time of the year! But with holidays comes so much stress, overeating, traveling that depletes our bodies and weakens our immune systems.

There are thousands of supplements on the market today (30,000 to be exact) ranging from sports nutrition supplements, botanicals, minerals, vitamins, weight management products and the list goes on.
