For many Americans, it is time to make a U-turn from a direction towards illness and treatment to a destination of prevention and good health by making some positive lifestyle changes.

Let us help you positively change the direction of where your health is headed. By taking baby steps and slowly making lifestyle changes, you can change the course of your health status. As the changes become permanent, you will be on your way to optimal health.

Let our team at The Highway 2 Health show you how!

Here are some suggestions where you can begin to make some healthy changes. A more complete daily checklist is available by contacting us.

Healthy Life Style Tips:

* Choose whole foods (fruits, vegetables, whole grains (gluten-free), raw nuts and seeds, and

other things found in nature that are not processed) over packaged foods.

* Try to eat certified organic foods whenever possible (especially produce and meats).

* Strive to eat a 90% plant-based diet, (of which, approximately 75% should be raw).

* Drink water as your primary beverage. (Take your body weight, and divide it by two. That is

how many ounces of water you should strive to drink each day...more if you are an athlete).

* Eliminate trans-fats completely. (No level is safe.)

* Implement a rigorous (you should break a sweat) 30-60 minute workout at least 5 days a

week. This should include stretching, cardio, and strength/resistance exercises.

* Get adequate sleep (approx. 7-8 hours for adults; children need even more).

* Try to neutralize stress (exercise, read a good book or Scriptures, pray, tend a garden, take a

bubble bath, get a massage, do deep breathing exercises, etc.)

* Get outside regularly for moderate amount of daily sunshine. (Get 10-15 minutes per day

with at least 40 % of your body exposed), when you can, to increase your vitamin D level, or

take a pharmaceutical grade vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) supplement daily. We can recommend

a couple of brands of high-quality, highly absorbable vitamin D3 drops. Just ask us!

* Practice good oral hygiene. Brush and floss at least two times each day to decrease risk of disease.

* Eat the recommended 9-13 servings of fruits and vegetables every day to reduce the risk

of degenerative disease.

* Incorporate Juice Plus in your daily regimen (whole food nutrition in a capsule or gummy for

men, women, and children of all ages) as a “nutritional safety net” for your family. This is a very

safe, convenient, affordable way to get the whole food nutrients from 30 fruits, vegetables,

berries, and gluten-free whole grains each and every day. This is NOT a vitamin. It has a

FOOD label, NOT a supplement label. Ask us what the difference is!
