Veterans Day

I'd like to take a moment to say "thank you" to all our Veterans on this Veterans Day. Too many days of the year go by without acknowledging the people that have made this great country what it is today. People that put their lives on the line, those that made the ultimate sacrifice, and those that are still out there today fighting for our freedom and the rights and privileges that we have. I am an American, I am proud to be an American and I still think this nation is the greatest in the world, despite some of the issues that are going on now. Sooo, without getting up on a soap box, which I could real easy, I simply and sincerely from the bottom of my heart want to say thank you to all the Veterans. Happy Veterans Day!

Probiotic Revolution

Continuing on with our Fall Lecture Series, we have another great one coming up this Wednesday November 11th. It is being held from 12:00 to 1:00 in our conference rooms. The topic of discussion is the "Probiotic Revolution" presented by Elizabeth Alama, pharmacist. I have had a lot of people asking me, "what is probiotics?" and to be honest with you I really didn't know. I decided I needed to know at least a little of what I was talking about so I Googled it. Wow! I got more info than I could process, at least at 5:30 in the morning. Fortunately one of the nurses from the hospital came by so I asked her about it. Reader Digest version is as follows-it has to do with the microorganisms that naturally live in our large intestine and gut. We need to have a proper balance and so much of the foods that we eat, medications we take all contribute to getting us out of balance. So, you need to come to this lecture and find out what we can do to get our bodies back in balance, to help our immune systems and improve our general health.
