THIN AND SHEDDING HAIR

I PANICKED – I LOST SO MUCH HAIR Jeanne is 60 and has been active all her life, playing sports and walking in nature. After a surgery a few years ago, she lost a lot of hair.

t made me sad and somewhat desperate. I then came across an article about a lady, who was taking a supplement with hair nutrients, which help nourish, vitalize and strengthen the hair, so I got curious. I called my pharmacy to ask about the product, and since the pharmacist explained that customers were really happy with it, I chose to give it a try.

PEOPLE TELL ME I DON’T LOOK MY AGE ANYMORE I have been taking the Hair VolumeTM for a year now, and I am thrilled. My hair is healthy, full and looks nice again. The big difference was how the shedding decreased. Hair is so important to me and since it improved so much lately, people are starting to notice. The best thing is that they tell me I don’t look my age”, Jeanne says delighted.

Always read and follow instructions prior to use. Results may vary.

TEST YOURSELF:

YES NO

Is your hair looking dull and thin? Do you experience hair shedding?

THE VITAL HAIRNUTRIENTS FOR BEAUTIFUL HAIR Thanks to the hair roots, our hairs can draw nutrients from the bloodstream, and use them for growth, health and vitality.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 25 INTERNATIONAL RABBIT DAY

JOKE OF THE WEEK

Lost in translation A time traveler goes to ancient Rome and realizes he wore historically incorrect clothes for the trip, so he visits a toga shop to buy new clothes. He looks around the shop and doesn’t see any togas big enough to fit him, so he walks up to the counter and asks the clerk, “Do you have XL togas?” to which the clerk responds, “Well, yes. But why do you need so many?”

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 21 MINIATURE GOLF DAY

Have some fun! We asked Olivia Prokopova, four-time ProMiniGolf Association U.S. Open Champion and Hall of Fame inductee, how to make a trip to the mini-golf course even more fun! Her top tip? Try an approach known as “lagging your putt.” Instead of aiming for a hole in one, try to get the ball close to the hole so you can easily sink the ball on your second putt. “For many holes, a 2 is a good score,” she says. Then, when you make your second shot, go slow: “Often putts with the ball on the edge of the hole will fall in if the speed is slow.”

It’s no secret that watching videos of cute animals like bunnies is an easy way to lift your spirits, but researchers at the University of Leeds in England found that it can also fight stress! They showed volunteers a 30-minute montage featuring animal photos and videos and discovered that subjects’ anxiety decreased by 35%. Previous research has found that being around animals reduces the production of the stress hormone cortisol, and watching videos delivers similar perks! To view adorable bunny clips, visit YouTube and search The Pet Collective’s channel for “bunnies” or “rabbits.”

Dig into delish Today is the day to treat yourself to the ultimate comfort food: pot pie! When making your own, it all comes down to the crust, says Ken Haedrich, author of Dinner Pies. “The top crust has to be flaky and shatter into lovely little shards when you spoon into it.” Secrets to success: Let the filling cool to room temperature before spooning it into the crust. “If you put hot filling in an unbaked pie shell, that’s a recipe for a soggy crust,” says Haedrich. Also smart: “Make your own crust, even if you think you’re a total piecrust klutz. It will taste fabulous and everyone will think you’re a genius!”

SEPTEMBER 19–25 NATIONAL INDOOR PLANT WEEK

Cultivate happiness! For a lasting burst of joy, bring a new houseplant home this week! Researchers reporting in the journal Urban Forestry & Urban Greening surveyed 4,000 people and found that 74% of subjects said having houseplants improved their emotional well-being during the 2020 COVID-19 lockdown. They also experienced fewer negative emotions like sadness and fear than those without plants.

“Sounds really stressful to me. Have you ever tried knocking things off a table?”

Q Why did the cow cross

the road? A To get to the udder side!

Experts say houseplants improve air quality, reducing carbon dioxide levels and increasing oxygen to ease stress and boost mood. Plus, caring for a plant helps us feel needed. To help your plants grow healthy: Dilute 1 gallon of water with 1 ⁄4 cup of ammonia and use it to water plants once a week. The ammonia infuses the soil with nitrogen, which helps plants grow.

Her love and canthousands of kittens! POW E R OF LOV E

In 2020 alone, the National Kitten Coalition saved more than 210,000 kittens

Heartbroken when she learned very young kittens were being euthanized at animal shelters because they need special care, Susan Spaulding began fostering the sweet little furballs. Her love spread, and today, she and a coalition of animal lovers have rescued hundreds of thousands of tiny kitties

“Kittens take a lot of time and specialized care, but it’s a labor of love,” says Coalition founder Susan Spaulding

usan Spaulding couldn’t believe her ears. A man had just come into the San Antonio thrift store where she was volunteering in 1994 and asked to drop off a box of 13 just-weeks-old kittens. An employee apologized, telling him they didn’t take animals, and directed him to the local shelter. As he left, Susan asked her friend when she thought the kittens would be ready for adoption because she and her husband were thinking about getting a cat. “Oh they won’t last the night,” her co-worker replied, explaining kittens that young were too much work. “They will probably be euthanized.” That’s not fair, Susan thought and raced after the man. “I’ll take the kittens!” she told him. But how do I care for them? Susan wondered and called a veterinarian, but he told her, “You can’t help them. They’re too young. They’re going to die.” No, that’s not going to happen, Susan thought. Following her heart and the minimal instructions the vet offered, she bottle-fed the kittens every few hours and did her best to keep them warm—and to her joy, they all survived and went on to loving homes. Susan was happy and proud of what she thought would be a one-time kitty rescue mission. But word got around, and soon people started calling her, saying, “I hear you help newborn kittens.” That’s when the “Kitten Mom” was born.

Heartfelt mission Susan began taking in kittens, just a few here and there. She contacted vets and veterinary schools to learn proper care on everything from how newborn kittens need to be fed to how to help them empty their tiny bladders. Despite the time and labor-intensive care, Susan couldn’t turn any kitten away. Just a few

Today, Susan, now 72 and living in Hickory, North Carolina, also fosters special-needs kittens for the nonprofit NC Paws Cat Rescue, saving even more lives. “To think I was told kittens couldn’t be saved. But like my husband said to me back then, ‘You don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something.’ And I hope no one else does either,” Susan says. “It’s truly amazing what’s possible when you follow your heart, and collaborate with other people who share your passion.” —Jen Reeder

3 easy ways to help at-risk infant animals!

Courtesy of NC Paws Cat Rescue (5); Getty (2)

Newborn shelter animals require 24/7 care and are more susceptible to sickness and injuries after being separated from their parents. Here, ways you can help!

Be a kitten masseuse!

Massage therapy has been shown to increase energy and heighten kittens’ immune function, say experts at Heal Animal Massage Therapy. Visit YouTube.com and search “kitten massage” to learn techniques that heal, then volunteer at a local shelter to try out your skills!

Offer puppies comfort!

Most shelters are in need of items specifically for newborn puppies—like soft foods, droppers for medications, potty pads and toys. Stop by a dollar store and pick up a few things to donate to a shelter near you. Want to help at no cost? Donate old heating pads, towels or blankets you no longer use.

Shop for baby birds!

Go to WildBirdFund.org, click “How to help” and then “Amazon Smile & Wish List.” Then click the Wish List and shop for items like rubber gloves, nuts and soap. Or shop through Smile.Amazon.com and for each purchase, Amazon Smile will donate .5% of the price to the Wild Bird Fund.

with blueberries

Diminish dark circles with tomato “Unique minerals in tomatoes boost circulation to move the pooled blood that makes dark circles more apparent,” says Jacqueline Schaffer, M.D., a holistic skin care expert and author of Irresistible You: Smart Solutions for Clear, Radiant, Youthful Skin. Plus, its antioxidant lycopene is a brightening agent that lightens any other discoloration under the eyes.

The sweet berries are rich in resveratrol, a compound that stimulates collagen production to firm skin and fill in lines. Plus, blueberries contain antioxidants, which protect skin from free radicals and prevent the collagen breakdown that causes wrinkles to form in the first place, says Dr. Schaffer. To boost the skin-smoothing benefits, mix with aloe (it promotes moisture retention to plump skin). ■ TRY IT! Puree 1 ⁄4 cup of blueberries and combine with 1 ⁄4 cup of aloe vera gel. Apply to areas with wrinkly skin; let sit for 15 minutes, then rinse.

Reverse hair thinning with pumpkin Pumpkins are chock-full of vitamins and minerals that encourage hair growth and prevent fallout. Use with hydrating olive oil, which “swells” strands for thicker-looking hair fast.

■ TRY IT! Blend 1 tomato, then strain the juice. Soak 2 cotton pads in the juice and place on top of eyes for 10 minutes; remove and rinse skin.

■ TRY IT! Mix 1 Tbs. of pumpkin puree and 1 ⁄2 Tbs. of olive oil. Massage onto the scalp for 1 minute, then let sit 10 minutes before rinsing.

Nat ural wa ys to Quick cures for mental tiredness Crisp air, vivid colors, cool breezes—fall can be so invigorating! But if your brainpower isn’t as brisk as the season, you’re not alone: Up to 82% of women over 50 have bouts of fogginess on a regular basis, and hectic schedules can make brain drain more likely. To clear the cobwebs and restore mental clarity, just…

Dial up your handwashing Sure, you wash your hands, but do you include your wrists? Doing so—and using cold water—boosts your brainpower! A National Institutes of Health study found stimulating pulse points in the wrists with cold water for 60 seconds releases hormones that enhance the brain’s ability to retain information and complete mental tasks by 31%, an effect that lasts up to 30 minutes.

The drug-free way to END BACK PAIN No need to reach for painkillers the next time a backache flares. Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh found that when people with back, neck or other joint pain took 1,200 mg. of fish oil daily for 75 days, 60% of them reported significant pain relief—enough to decrease or discontinue their use of pain medications. That’s because the fish oil’s omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) block pain-triggering inflammation. Note: Talk to your doctor before supplementing if you take warfarin or other blood thinners. courtesy of Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D. To receive 3 free Wellness Guides, order her new book, Radical Longevity, at RadicalLongevityBook.com

Mint’s crisp scent has proven brain-perking powers: British research reveals that inhaling aromatic compounds in peppermint boosts the production of stimulating beta brain waves, increasing mental energy by 50% in 2 minutes. To get the benefit, saturate a cotton ball with peppermint essential oil and seal it in a zip-top bag so you can sniff on the go. Also smart: popping that cotton ball into one of your car’s air vents so it keeps you alert while driving.

Munch on an apple Or a radish or even gum! Just 2 minutes of chewing enhances mental performance by 41%, Italian scientists say. And the benefits last for at least a half hour. Turns out chewing boosts the delivery of energizing oxygen to the brain while stimulating regions that govern memory and mental processing.

Sweeten water Staying hydrated drops off our radar in cooler weather, but mild dehydration causes brain fog. The fix: Sip a cup of water mixed with a scoop of d-ribose. In a study in The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, folks who did so three times daily increased their mental clarity by 30% and their allday energy by 45% in three weeks. D-ribose is a simple sugar that enhances cells’ ability to generate ATP, the “energy currency” for body and brain. Try: Life Extension D-Ribose Powder (LifeExtension.com/ww). —Melissa Gotthardt

S LI M M I N G SUCCESS

Keto right for What if there was a way to personalize the keto diet just for your body, ensuring you’d speed off spare pounds and transform your health as quickly and easily as possible? Well, that’s what a new mash-up between keto and the approach from Eat Right 4 Your Type is all about…

ith more than 7 million copies in print, Eat Right 4 Your Type has been a bestseller for over two decades. Devotees insist the book’s strategies—with a diet customized for each blood type—work absolute magic. In large polls, a whopping 85% to 90% report being delighted by their results. “That’s true across all four blood types,” shares natural-health expert and researcher Peter D’Adamo, N.D., who helped pioneer the famous approach. So why mess with a good thing? “People were constantly asking if my plan works with keto,” he says. The answer: “It can actually personalize the one-size-fits-all diet and make it significantly better!” As proof, he created special keto guidelines. Folks using them report turbocharged losses of up to 3 pounds every day.

Debbie lost 115 lbs!

IT WORKS!

“I’ve tried diet pills, soup fasts, even lap-band surgery—but I never felt healthy and I gained back everything I lost,” recalls Debbie Kasadine, 61. Dealing with high blood pressure and knee pain, the Missouri grandma thought traditional keto might help. “It made me lethargic.” Then she discovered Eat Right 4 Your Type guidelines. As a type O, she ate standard keto fare, but this time, skipped dairy and allowed herself more carbs from fruit. She was soon losing more than a pound a day as her energy surged. Now 115 pounds lighter with normal blood pressure, Debbie is spreading the word: “If you want to BEFORE feel great and live your best life, try this!”

Keto—upgraded Basic keto cuts carbs to about 40 grams a day, slashing the production of blood sugar. “Your body must switch from burning sugar as fuel to burning ketones, a type of fuel it makes from stored fat,” explains Dr. D’Adamo. This increases fat burn. Yet some get a bigger boost than others. Why? Complicated science boils down to this: There are compounds in food that only some of us digest well. Eat too much stuff you can’t digest, and it causes a domino effect—“inflammation, bloat, suppressed metabolism

and many health problems,” notes the doc. To pinpoint keto foods that’ll block or boost your success, “your blood type is the key to unlock the mystery.” Turns out, each blood type developed at a specific point in human history and reveals clues about the diet that helped your ancient ancestors survive and thrive. Many studies now link blood type and certain health conditions—for example, type O is least likely to get IBS and most likely to have a slow thyroid. Dr. D’Adamo helped conduct tests to link each blood type to an ideal diet, then melded in keto principles. “In a short time, you see the astonishing difference that comes with eating right for your type!” Real-world wow Cutting carbs did little for Danielle Dungen, 49, until she discovered Dr. D’Adamo’s approach. Using type O’s lowcarb tricks, “I instantly had more energy, my GI issues went away and I lost 20 pounds in a month!” says the San Antonio grandmother. Soon down 82 pounds, she became a personal trainer who uses blood-type secrets to amp up results for her keto-loving clients. “Some are skeptical at first, but within a week, realize how amazing it is!” Want to see for yourself? On the following pages, there’s a keto guide for each blood type. Use the customized advice for your type—and prepare to be transformed!

TYPE O: Simple twists slim fast

ype O traces back 60,000 years to the very first humans. “They were formidable hunters who ate meat as their main fuel,” says Dr. D’Adamo. Fossils suggest their keto-like eating habits “made them quite tall and healthy for their time,” he adds. Today, about 45% of us carry their hardy blood type. Studies show O’s are resistant to many diseases and have the lowest heart-disease risk of the four types.

Type O keto basics Modern O’s have inherited abundant stomach acid and digestive enzymes needed to

thrive on a traditional keto diet. O’s can round out highfat, meat-heavy meals with keto staples like fish, eggs, greens, berries and nuts. For best results, go for high-quality protein (like grass-fed meat) and keep carbs to 40 grams a day. Your top success secrets ✓ Hold the cheese! There were no milk cows when type O evolved, and O’s are often short on enzymes that digest dairy. Dr. D’Adamo says cheese typically blocks weight loss for O’s on a standard keto plan. Other keto foods O’s don’t digest well: pork, cauliflower, cashews, peanuts,

pistachios, sunflower seeds, avocado and coconut. ✓ Watch out for gluten. The wheat protein, often used to improve taste in packaged foods, slows metabolic rate in type O’s, warns Dr. D’Adamo. So check labels on things like broth and roasted nuts. ✓ Shake on iodized salt. Dr. D’Adamo explains that daily doses of iodine are crucial to keep the thyroid and metabolism of O’s humming.

lood type B emerged around 10,000 bc, as rugged folks pushed into harsh climates of Asia and Europe, relying heavily on domesticated animals for food. In modern times, roughly one in 10 people carries the blood of these ancient herders. “A healthy type B tends to have the fewest disease risk factors of all blood types,” notes Dr. D’Adamo. Type B keto basics The ancestors of B’s enjoyed a diet fairly similar to a standard keto diet. So you’ll fill up on meat, dairy, fish, eggs, healthy fat, low-starch veggies,

AB’s also have brainpower: Studies show they’re more likely to be geniuses than any other type!

AB’s do need to opt for turkey over chicken and lamb over beef or pork. They also want to steer clear of cured meat, avocado, radishes and cassava-based keto products. For best results, aim to keep carbs under 60 grams daily. Your top success secrets ✓ Be starch smart. AB’s can handle extra carbs like type A’s and extra protein like type B’s as long as they keep their

WISE WORDS

“Never stop Duchess of York, philanthropist and author, Sarah ‘Fergie’ Ferguson, 61, is known around the world for her flaming red hair, genuine spirit and giving heart. But having been thrust into the public eye in her 20s, her journey often came with doubt and low self-worth. Here, the Duchess opens up about how discovering gratitude, self-acceptance and joy in unexpected places led her to true happiness By Diane Nichols

earing many hats is something that Sarah Ferguson thrives on. The iconic Duchess of York is, after all, not only a mother and grandmother but the author of dozens of children’s books, a memoir and a new romance novel. Add to that her vast charitable works, and one might assume that her life of accomplishment has made it easy for the Duchess to love and feel proud of herself. But after a lifetime of struggling with her weight and criticism after her public split from Prince Andrew, Queen Elizabeth’s second son, Sarah confesses that her biggest battle has been just that: to love and accept herself. “No matter how old I get or what I’ve gone through or accomplished, I can tell you that I’m still a work in progress,” Sarah shares with Woman’s World. “I’ve gone through many days where I’ve felt unworthy. But

eventually, you have to sit down, put your arm around yourself like you’re hugging someone and say, ‘How do you feel? Are you really as worthless as you think?’ Then you’ll realize you’re doing better than you think.” Self-compassion is only one half of the equation, however. The other half, the 61-year-old says, is borne of a piece of advice given to her by her grandmother. “When I was 12 years old, she told me to stop thinking about myself and give to others,” Sarah says. “I took that literally, reaching out to help those in need when I was feeling at my worst. That led me to follow my heart and help others through my charity, Sarah’s Trust. Giving makes such a difference in times of trouble, and helping others allowed me to conquer my fears and to make a difference.” Here, the Duchess shares her tips and tricks for embracing and loving your true self, finding strength in weakness and fearlessly chasing abundant joy.

In her debut historical romance novel, Her Heart for a Compass (on sale now!), Sarah shares a part of her own personal journey. “I’m deeply excited because this book parallels my life in many ways and proves that anything is possible.” Set in the Victorian era, the book shares a message about following your heart, even when the odds are against you. “I want to encourage women to pursue their dreams and never give up—you’ll surprise yourself in the end!”

believing in you!” 1

Adventure is all around you “I have a vibrant imagination,” Sarah says with a smile. “Something as simple as walking with the dogs can turn into an adventure if you look at things from a different angle. For example, sometimes I would take the camera and go underneath a beautiful big pile of clover to see life from that perspective. A big clover leaf would be like an umbrella on a beach if you were an ant! We all need a little adventure in life—and small shifts in perspective help us find it.”

4 Sarah’s dad, Ronald, (shown with her in 1968) taught her gratitude

Try to keep a thankful heart “My father brought me up to be grateful,” Sarah shares. “He always said, ‘Remember that the kitchen is more important than the dining room table and the drive is more important than the party.’ I always go back and thank people. When you do that with a pure and grateful heart, life is more beautiful.”

Always choose joy “It can be so easy to look at the negative side of things in life,” Sarah admits. “It’s taken me a long time to work earnestly to keep enjoying life. We may complain one week about the rain and then turn around and say it’s too hot once the sun comes out, instead of realizing that it is actually a lovely day! These days, I can look at life in a joyous way—including seeing people who are struggling and finding joy in helping them feel at ease. It’s a real gift!”

Sarah’s daughters, Princess Eugenie (left) and Princess Beatrice (right), give her strength

Lean on the ones you love most “When I’m needing strength, I always find it in the smiles of children,” Sarah says. “My grandson, August, is 5 months old, and when he smiles at me, I know he is genuinely happy to see me. It makes me overflow with joy and forget about whatever is troubling me. I’m also fortunate to have amazing friends and family. My children are my best friends, and I’m so grateful.”

Unwind with simple pleasures “My favorite way to defeat stress is by doing simple things,” Sarah shares. “Things like taking long walks with my dogs and exercising are best. I also love watching Netflix—I’m binge-watching Never Have I Ever, which has been great. Of course, working to learn something new is great too. Learning about different worlds and people excites and soothes me.”

Sarah’s Trust helps children in need

Find peace in giving back “My charity, Sarah’s Trust, raises money for charities I love,” Sarah says. “It allows me the freedom to follow my heart and help. In 1992, we helped move children hospitalized in a heavily polluted area of Poland to the mountains. It saved their lives and taught me that to give a child a smile is fine, but to give them clean air is to give them a chance at the world.”

Diabetes Freedom Worth Buying? Reviews – Can George Reilly & James Freeman’s Main Manual control your blood sugar level naturally?

Diabetes Freedom – What is it all about? A large amount of the population today suffers from the deadly disease called diabetes; especially Type-2 diabetes is becoming a common problem among the population. A large number of diabetic patients get their legs amputated. Many times, diabetic patients are left helpless because there seems to be no cure for their condition. They can only survive if they take their medications on time. Their bodies get so used to the support from these tablets that the body’s ability to function on its own is diminished. For years people have been dealing with type-2 diabetes, but no permanent cure still exists for the condition. Or is the world being fooled by all the big drug companies and manufacturers? There are natural ways through which one can bring under control one’s blood sugar level.

Nature has a solution and a cure for all of our problems. Taking guidance from mother nature, a manual has been created that helps cure Type-2 diabetes in a completely natural way, and its name is Diabetes Freedom. All one has to do is follow everything step by step from the Diabetes Freedom manual. Diabetes Freedom is available in e-form and can be downloaded on any of your devices. There will be no need to follow any exercise or diet plans; just through changes in diet patterns, one can avail of benefits.

Readers share little reminders of how much goodness there is in the world “THEIR GESTURES OF LOVE SAVED ME!” I have been going through an incredibly challenging time during the past seven years. There were many times when I did not know where my help would come from. I had no job, no car or even a place to live at times. Many family members, friends and even strangers would extend a helping hand. Specifically, my friend Pastor Florine stuck with me and never said a discouraging word. There would be times she would send me financial gifts when I did not expect it, and it was always needed. She will never know how much confidence her gesture of love gave me. I’ll always appreciate her and thank God for all who helped me! —LaFaye Brown, Atlanta

“Every dawn seemed to promise fresh miracles” —Anna Godbersen

“A STRANGER WENT OUT OF HIS WAY!” My cousin from Florida came to visit me in New Jersey, where he grew up. He wanted to go to the cemetery where his parents are buried. Both of us forgot the name of the cemetery but thought we would easily find it. Because of many changes in the area, we had difficulty locating it. Finally, we saw a man standing by the road, and we stopped and asked for his help. He told us that he would lead us there, and we could follow him. But we realized that it wasn’t the cemetery we were looking for. When we told him it wasn’t the right one, he proceeded to lead us to another cemetery, which was the correct one. We thanked him over and over! We were so touched that a stranger was so kind to go out of his way and take time to help us! —Paulette Feintuch, Parsippany, NJ “SHE APPEARED IN MY TIME OF NEED!” My office at work was on the second floor, and one day, I fell down the entire flight of stairs from the top to the bottom. When I hit the ground, I knew I was in trouble. For a second, I didn’t know how I would get up. No sooner had I hit the ground than a woman appeared and told me not to move and that she was calling 911. She told me she was a nurse and helped me stay calm while waiting for the ambulance to arrive. Her kind and reassuring words were like a bandage to an arm that the doctor confirmed was broken and might need surgery. I felt so grateful for this woman who just happened to appear in my time of need! —Sandra Waserman, Vancouver, British Columbia

She had created a vision of him as her foe, but he wasn’t funny in that vision…and he certainly didn’t look at her the way he was looking at her now. “You have a bit of dirt…just here.” Eddie reached out a tanned hand and brushed his thumb gently across her cheekbone. Kathleen tried to remain still as her heartbeat quickened. “There. All better.” “Thanks,” she said, glancing around for an excuse to escape. Eddie’s proximity was giving her unexpected, albeit not unwelcome, butterflies. Still, she was so caught off guard that she felt an urge to get away.

He stuffed his hands in his pockets, drawing her attention back to his forearms. “The one over at Penn Square. Do you?” “I do the one at Wickery Park.” “Wow, Wickery Park.” Eddie whistled. “Big spenders in that neighborhood.” Kathleen smiled. “I can’t complain.” “I’m sure they will more than make up for the lack of squash profit today.” Kathleen glanced over her shoulder for Kevin and the truck, expecting Eddie to return to his own boxes. “Well, I should really…” “Listen,” he interrupted. “I’ve been standing over there week after week, watching you. Every week, I tell myself I’m going to come over and talk to you, and every week I chicken out. So today, I’m not leaving until I know if you’ll have dinner with me.” Kathleen stared at him, trying to process what was happening. Eddie Perez, her arch nemesis, was asking her out. Eddie Perez, the man she saw customers giggling about every week. He wanted to take her to dinner, and if she listened to the warm feeling in her belly, she really wanted to let him. “I, um, I would love to,” she said. “Great!” He smiled again, his bright white teeth shining at her, making her feel giddy and courageous. “Just lettuce know when you’re free.” Eddie’s belly shook with laughter as he took her hand and gave it a squeeze. “I will.

It’s a condensed version of the core guide that contains the 3week schedule, shopping lists, prep guide, and smoothie recipes. This is a fast track “to do” list that will help you start enjoying the benefits of the program from the very first instant you download it.

“LOSE WEIGHT AND FEEL BETTER THAN YOU HAVE IN YEARS... OR IT’S ON ME!” You're covered for a full 60 Days. If for any reason you decide that this program is not for you, simply drop me an email and let me know and I'll give you a refund...every penny, without questions, without hassles. This is a completely risk-free offer.

STILL HAVE QUESTIONS? I'VE GOT YOU COVERED!  I NEED TO LOSE MORE WEIGHT, HOW DO I CONTINUE AFTER THE 21 DAYS? The best part of The Smoothie Diet is that you can use it for as long as you need, to lose as much weight as you want. I make it super simple to continue using everything you learn in the first 3 weeks to extend the program for the next few weeks or even months. And each additional week will be just as enjoyable as the first three! My goal is to give you all the tools you need to continue losing weight and getting healthy for as long as you need to.

 WON'T I JUST GAIN ALL THE WEIGHT BACK? Unlike other diets, this is not a “quick-fix”. 21 days is only the beginning to a lifetime of better health and a slimmer body. The #1 comment I get on The Smoothie Diet is that after a few weeks, the cravings for sweets and junk foods have essentially disappeared. This makes it very easy to keep the weight off. I also show you exactly how to transition back into your regular eating patterns after the 21 days while still incorporating smoothies into your diet to keep the weight off. In fact, most people love the smoothies so much they don’t want to give them up after the 21 days! As some of my clients have said, this is a complete life-transformation program .

 I HAVE TYPE-2 DIABETES, WILL THIS WORK FOR ME? Fresh, whole fruits, as well as blended green smoothies not only provide a healthy way for diabetics to get more fruits and vegetables in their diet, green smoothies also may help reverse some of the diet and lifestyle problems that exacerbate diabetes, or contributes to its progression. The great

thing about the Smoothie Diet is that it kicks off a chain-reaction of lifestyle changes that reduce or eliminate the factors that exacerbate the disease, and reverses the condition in some individuals. Please note that while I am a nutrition expert, I am not a doctor. If you have diabetes or ANY other health condition, you should always consults with your doctor first before making any dietary changes.

 I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF TIME IN THE DAY, IS THIS HARD TO FOLLOW? If you don’t have a lot of time in the day, then this program is PERFECT for you . My ideal customer is a busy mom who works, goes to school, has errands to run, kids to drop off/pick up, etc. I designed this program to be super simple and take minutes a day. I even provide tips on how to cut corners to shave some valuable extra minutes off your smoothie prep. The recipes are quick to make and you can either enjoy them right after you make them or take them with you. You’ll always have a delicious, filling meal with you. And if you can press one button on your blender then you can follow this program :)

 DO I NEED AN EXPENSIVE BLENDER OR ARE THE INGREDIENTS HARD TO FIND? With the increased popularity of smoothies, blender prices have gotten very competitive. The most important thing is to have a blender with a strong motor. While the bender you have now will probably work just fine, If you are serious about making a big change in your health, then I show you some of the top-of-the-line blenders. But I also show you cheaper models that will work just fine and are under $50. The ingredients are not hard to find and if they are, I provide a full “Swap List” that shows you easy substitutes to use if you can’t find something.

 IS THERE ANYTHING THAT COMES IN THE MAIL? This is a fully digital product. You will not receive anything in the mail. The great thing about this is that you will have access to it in minutes. You don't have to wait for anything to arrive on your doorstep. I want to harness the excitement you're feeling right now and get you started right away. You can even do your week 1 shopping today and start tomorrow…or start today! The files are in PDF format. After you checkout, you will automatically be taken to a page where you can download and view everything on your computer, tablet, or smartphone. For those of you who would prefer a printed book, the Quickstart Bonus is designed for this. It is a 20-page shortened version of the main guide that can be printed out and followed just like a printed book.

 WHAT IF IT DOESN'T WORK FOR ME? If for some reason this program does not work for you even though you have followed it exactly as I have laid out, I have no problem giving you a full refund. I'll even cover you for a full 60 days so if you are unhappy for any reason over the next 2 months, you get your money back. If you are not happy with the program, then I don’t want you to have to pay for it. I believe in building relationships with my customers and your satisfaction is my #1 priority.

Yes Drew, I’m sick and tired of being overweight, having no energy, and worrying about my health. I’m ready to make a change! I understand that my order is fully guaranteed for 60 days and I will have instant access to the program after ordering so I can start burning fat as soon as today!

For years, the Texas native had worked at her family’s Round Top café, known for its delicious pies.

And as she got her business going, Tara realized she had another dream in her heart: to share that opportunity for a fresh start with employees coming from a tough place in life like she had.
