Vitamins and minerals are the building blocks of health. Our body makes no minerals and sadly the soil has been depleted of precious minerals from improper crop rotation, over-pesticide use and damaging UV rays from holes in the ozone layer.
The National Institute of Health has stated that every person needs DAILY supplements to maintain health and boost the immune system.
#1 side effect of malnutrition is obesity. WHY?
Because the brain keeps sending signals to eat to secure precious vitamins, minerals and water. What does the average American reach for when they are hungry? Do they reach for broccoli, Brussels sprouts or cabbage and a glass of water? NO - they reach for a carbohydrate (which turns to sugar in the body). Looks like a vicious cycle, don't you think?
WHY DO PEOPLE TAKE VITAMINS AND STILL NOT FEEL BETTER?
Because, in most cases, only 5 - 7% of the vitamins and minerals are absorbed into the cells. The Physician's Desk Reference Manual(PDR), which is the publication Doctor's refer readily to, states that cell absorption of vitamins and minerals absorb at 10% or less. (i.e.if a nutrient had 100 mgs, your body would only absorb 10 mgs or less).
Do you Oligo? Don't know what this means?
10 Times More Available for Absorption
Only Oligo binds minerals to organic compounds (amino acids and oligofructose) to mirror the way they are found in fruits, vegetables, and other whole foods to maximize solubility.
In fact, Oligo minerals are scientifically proven to be up to 10 times more available for absorption than the minerals in the leading brands.* Traditional mineral forms can crystallize in the intestines, making them difficult to absorb. Labels don’t indicate the rate of solubility, availability, or absorption or the nutrients inside.
Minerals in traditional supplements can trigger massive free radical activity during digestion. These free radicals can actually cancel out the benefits of antioxidants like vitamins C and E. Oligo minerals are different. Oligo protects these critical antioxidants up to 5 times better than the leading brands. As a result, your body gets more of the nutrition it needs most for more energy every day and a lifetime of better health.

To My Child
To My Child >>>>>>>>
Just for this morning, I am going to smile when I see your face and laugh when I feel like crying
Just for this morning, I will let you choose what you want to wear, and smile and say how perfect it is.
Just for this morning, I am going to step over the laundry, and pick you up and take you to the park to play.
Just for this morning, I will leave the dishes in the sink, and let you teach me how to put that puzzle of yours together.
Just for this afternoon, I will unplug the telephone and keep the computer off, and sit with you in the backyard and blow bubbles. Just for this afternoon, I will not yell once, not even a tiny grumble when you scream and whine for the ice cream truck, and I will buy you one if he comes by.
JUST for this afternoon, I won't worry about what you are going to be when you grow up, or second guess every decision I have made where you are concerned.
Just for this afternoon, I will let you help me bake cookies, and I won't stand over you trying to fix them.
Just for this afternoon, I will take us to McDonalds and buy us both a Happy Meal so you can have both toys.
Just for this evening, I will hold you in my arms and tell you a story about how you were born and how much I love you.
Just! For this evening, I will let you splash in the tub and not get angry.
Just for this evening, I will let you stay up late while we sit on the porch and count all the stars.
Just for this evening, I will snuggle beside you for hours, and miss my favorite TV shows.
Just for this evening when I run my finger through your hair as you pray, I will simply be grateful that God has given me the greatest gift ever given.I will think about the mothers and fathers who are searching for their missing children, the mothers and fathers who are visiting their children's graves instead of their bedrooms, and mothers and fathers who are in hospital rooms watching their children suffer senselessly, and screaming inside that they can't handle it anymore.And when I kiss you good night I will hold you a little tighter, a little longer. It is then, that I will thank God for you, and ask him for nothing, except one more day..............

My Story
I had been working in my nursing career for 8 years before I had my first child. I was able to take the whole first year of her life off work due to maternity leave. I saw her take her first step, say her first word, and be there for all her "firsts". We went to the park, swimming, etc and I enjoyed that immensely. As time approached for me to return to work, I began to dread the thought. Leaving her with someone else for the day made me anxious. How many things would I be missing? No daycare would take her part time as I worked shift work. My husband and I went through three different babysitters in 9 months. Christmas came and I had to work because it was my year and she was just getting at the age to get excited about presents and Santa. I suddenly realized that this was just the beginning of things I would miss for the rest of her life. My stomach turned and it was then that I began to realize that I needed to do something about that to change the course of the future.
I believe firmly in the "Law of Attraction". I purchased the DVD and began to send my positive thoughts about what I wanted out into the Universe. Then I found out I was pregnant with our second child. So excited that I now had another year off, I really focused on that "something" I needed to have and achieve but couldn't imagine what it would be. I desperately needed financial freedom and to stop living paycheck to paycheck. I did not want to miss all the things that my own mother had missed when I was a child. Shortly after I delivered my second child, I came across a flyer with a website on it that sparked my interest. I went to the website and clicked on "Get more info" and the next day received a call that would change my family's life. I began my journey with Internet Ceo Moms. I worked hard on my matt leave and was able to only return to work part time with much better hours. Now I work a couple of days per week in the Emergency room and it is only because I "want" to, not because I "have" to. My girls go for a play date once a week instead of to a sitter several times a week because that is what this has allowed.
What has it meant to my family??
For my husband--coming home to meals prepared, and more time together.
For my girls--having their Mommy home to take care of them, and spend time with them, to see all the things I would be missing, to be the one to dry their tears and to fix their scrapes and cuts.
For me--balance! I can go to the gym and take better care of "Me" so I can take better care of my family. I can contribute to our income while being at home with my kids.
I never thought anything would offer that, but this team does! And I don't even have to get out of my pajamas if I don't want to! And the best part is I get to give back and be the one to help someone else achieve their goals knowing how much it means to a family. "Teamwork makes the Dream work"
