In addition to our new look, we are also adjusting the format a bit. No need to worry though, you will continue to receive first-rate information, tools, and resources. However, instead of the longer articles you are used to, we are creating smaller – and therefore quick to read and apply - pieces.

We hope you enjoy these changes and that they are helpful to you in your quest for excellent health – naturally!

Now, on to your tools first topic of the new year!

Natural Weight Loss Tools and Resources

We have mentioned Nature's Field in the past and continue to encourage our clients and customers to subscribe to this informative newsletter. Steven Horne shares some insights on weight loss in the January issue that you won't want to miss.

We have created a discussion group at Yahoo for everyone who would like support and to exchange ideas in their weight loss efforts. We would love to have you join us!

DiscoveryHealth has an 8 week challenge that may be just the jumpstart you need. There is no charge and you get a great perk – an 8 week (also no cost) membership at Bally Total Fitness. If you live near one, this is a really good way to 'get moving'. However even if you can't make use of their offer, there are many other benefits of joining the challenge. Check out their FAQ page.

Remember to download their Fitness and Nutrition Journal. Whether you join the challenge or not, this is an excellent tool.

Supplements to Help You on Your Weight Loss Journey

Keeping in mind that supplements are to be used when necessary to complement - not replace - your core weight loss program, here are a few options. It will depend, of course, on your own unique issues and challenges which supplement will be right for you.

• Low Thyroid
  Thyroid Support
  Thyroid Activator
  Liquid Dulse
  Black Walnut
  
• Toxicity and Inflammation
  Tiao He Cleanse
  Dieters Cleanse
  Psyllium Hulls Combination
  Fat Grabbers
  
• Stress
  Nature's Cortisol Adrenal Support
  (According to Steven Horne, Nature's Cortisol helps when adrenals are overactive and Adrenal Support when they are underactive.)
  
• Inflammation
  Thai Go
  
• Food Cravings
  Nature's Hoodia
  Garcinia Combination
  To control blood sugar levels and reduce cravings for sweets:
  Licorice Root

  Satisfy your sweet tooth without causing blood sugar to spike. Try xylitol sweetened sweets!

To learn how best to utilize the above supplements, or determine if you even need them, the first tool, Nature's Field, is the best guide. Please don't just assume. You are unique and what helps your friend, may not be right for your body.
