SOMETHING HEALTHY
I was feeling rather draggy and tired,
so on the advice of a friend I began using herb and
mineral supplements.
Something that helped to jump-start me in the mornings
was Chromium Picolinate. I can honestly tell the
difference between those days when I take it and those
days when I don't.
Another helpful mineral has been Zinc, which aids your
immune system in battling colds.
I have asthma and an herb which has helped improve my
breathing is Stinging Nettle. It is a natural histamine
blocker.
Be sure and eat a meal when you take any dietary
supplements. Your body will absorb them more readily.
