Let’s take a look at what we do everyday that makes us feel tired or go off that diet we’ve only been on a week, or not be that concerned about what vitamins we take or don’t take every day.

Most of us stop the diet because it can be so much trouble packing up that lunch bucket every day that never looks appealing at all, then we head off to work to see everyone else enjoying a burger or pizza or whatever they like. I don’t think so much of that is the big problem, but it’s that we’re not on the diet that suits us. Don’t you just love it when someone tells you oh hey, try this diet, I lost 25 lbs in just 3 weeks? Well maybe they did, but you can bet they were never so miserable in their lives, or maybe it actually did work for them. The secret to losing weight is to find the diet that works for you, one that has all the ingredients you like, the ones that appeal to you, and especially, it has to be something that is filling and most importantly, it has to taste good.

Then there are vitamins that can be so confusing, there are so many different ones to choose from and by the time you figure that out you’ve spent your entire paycheck. Yes, you can choose a multi-vitamin but again, which one is what and does it really have everything you need for a healthy daily intake?

What about your energy level? If you are tired half way through your day then maybe you want to consider an energy drink. Have you seen all the choices you have to choose from? That’s scary enough to make you walk away, how do you know what you are putting into your body? Most all of the energy drinks available to us today are full of sugar, caffeine, amino acids, glucose, drug addicting supplements and all kinds of ingredients you should completely avoid. Take a look for yourself.

So how do we stay healthy and live longer?

Take the time to look at what you are in need of that fits into your daily lifestyle.

Taking vitamins on a daily basis should not be an inconvenience and should be easy and rewarding. Dieting should be filled with the things you love and at the end of the diet your weight loss is your prize, and when looking for more energy simply choose all natural drinks that are refreshing and calming yet makes you feel alive and alert without all the dangerous side effects.

You owe it to yourself to Stay Healthy and Live Longer.
