Some Tips On How I Create My Good Health


I try to get enough vitamins in my diet which I believe is key when it comes to staying healthy. I eat enough healthy grains, fruits and veggies, and lean protein to get all the vitamins, but sometimes everyday living doesn't make it too easy to do! Working long days and starting an online business at home takes up alot of my time, which makes planning and cooking a well balanced meal hard to do. Besides the fact that we sell them, supplements are a good way to boost your vitamin and mineral intake.

Here's a list of some of the supplements that I take on a regular basis.  I have invested in a good, complete multivitamin for women. Multivitamins usually have most of the basics but I also include  vitamin A, vitamin C ( I take chewables when they are available because I have a hard time with swallowing tablets), viatmin D, and vitamin B. You can often find these vitamins with the appropriate doses available for different age groups. An additional calcium supplement, especially for women, can support healthy bone structure. I also take a vitamin E supplement to help support my healthy heart.

I hope you liked learning little about how I try my best to stay healthy.  Stayed tuned for more tips later.  Thanks for reading - Lisa Booth of Good Living Products.

God vs. Satan - Good vs. Evil - Organic vs. Processed


This laugh brought to you by Good Living Products

In the beginning God covered the earth with broccoli, cauliflower, and spinach, green, yellow, and red vegetables of all kinds; so Man and Woman would live long and healthy lives.


Then using God's bountiful gifts, Satan created Ben and Jerry's and Krispy Kreme. And Satan said, "You want hot fudge with that?" And Man said, "Yes!" and Woman said, "I'll have another with sprinkles." And lo they gained 10 pounds.

And God created the healthful yogurt that Woman might keep the figure that Man found so fair.

And Satan brought forth white flour from the wheat, and sugar from the cane, and combined them. And Woman went from size 2 to size 10.

So God said, "Try my fresh green salad."

And Satan presented crumbled Bleu Cheese dressing and garlic toast on the side. And Man and Woman unfastened their belts following the repast.

God then said, "I have sent you heart healthy vegetables and olive oil in which to cook them."


And Satan brought forth deep fried coconut shrimp, butter dipped lobster chunks and chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own platter. And Man's cholesterol went through the roof.

God then brought forth running shoes so that his Children might lose those extra pounds.

And Satan came forth with a cable TV with remote control so Man would not have to toil changing the channels. And man and woman laughed and cried before the flickering light and started wearing stretch jogging suits.

Then God brought forth the potato, naturally low in fat and brimming with potassium and good nutrition.

Then Satan peeled off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy center into chips and deep-fried them in animal fats and added copious quantities of salt. And Man put on more pounds.


God then gave lean beef so that Man might consume fewer calories and still satisfy his appetite.

And Satan created McDonald's and the 99-cent double cheeseburger. Then Lucifer said, "You want fries with that?" and Man replied, "Yes! And super size' em!" And Satan said, "It is good." And Man went into cardiac arrest.

God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.

And Satan created HMOs.

Amen
