Time to BOOST that immune system!

The flu is hitting hard this year- it is all over the news.
The flu vaccine is only effective in about half of people who take it, and even if you have the vaccine, you can get varying levels of the flu, or different strains of it.
You can boost your own immune system to give yourself (and your family) a fighting chance. And even if you do get the flu, you can significantly lower its toll.

I am not a fan of hand sanitizers, but this time of the year I do make an exception, you can find the non-alcoholic safer versions at your local drug store. Use it every time you touch things in public that other people touch. Especially pay attention to those little child hands that touch everything!

Get plenty of fresh air and exercise-stay away from indoor gyms, playgrounds, and hit the park instead!

Eat a rainbow! Every day, eat all colors of fruits and vegetables!

Take your vitamins! Make sure the whole family is taking good quality highly researched natural vitamins! Such as fabulous Shaklee vitamins!

Here's to a happy, HEALTHY new year!!!

Let it snow let it snow let it snow

Yes, it has snowed, in October :) I'm pretty happy about it, and so are the kids! It was a heavy, heavy snow and a lot of tree branches fell- the leaves still hanging on makes the snow stick better.
Beautiful none the less!





Our neighborhood is heavily treed (Denver standards) making for beautiful changes of seasons (and lots of downed tree limbs).
After lots of play in the snow we decided to come in for some hot cocoa! Some runny noses followed, but it was so worth it. Now we are hoping for lots more of the cold white stuff. Did I mention fall is my favorite season?! I think winter might be too!

Dogs, kids and snow equals the best combination ever!

FYI, I just got a tip from a colleague at Shaklee, she puts Nutriferon in her children's hot cocoa to help boost their immunity during cold/flu season!
