Did you blink and miss September? It was so warm here it seemed to still be summer! But now this week it feels like Fall has finally hit and the trees are turning colors at last.
I have been hearing LOTS of complaints about allergies this Fall. People affected with lots of congestion and vertigo as well as itchy eyes. So I will remind you of a few tips when dealing with this.
Silver Shield liquid can be dropped in itchy eyes and squirted up congested nose to inhibit infections. HistaBlock inhibits histamine production so is a great antihistamine with none of the side effects of drugs. High Potency Garlic is a decongestant and coated with chlorophyll so it opens in intestine and does not cause digestive upset or garlic breath.
Sinus Support is another decongestant formula
DO rub on essential oils- Tea tree or Tie fu on the sinus areas- above the eyebrows, below the cheekbones (and behind the ears if dizzy)Take lots of Vitamin C as it is also an antihistamine.
And its a good reason to look forward to winter when all the pollen and mold is out of the way!

How can I afford to commit to a health program?
Many times people would really like to improve their health but complain that it is too expensive or hard to keep on a program. It is important to commit to 3 - 6 months of taking your supplements and making changes in your lifestyle to get an improvement that you can base a decision on. To add them into your budget write down all that you spend your money on in a month- coffee, magazines, what? There is more spent on unnecessary things then you think. But even if you really don't think you can cut any fluff from your budget then consider the following option.
The Sunshine Rewards Autoship program comes every month and lets you buy at the cheapest price! Order at least $100 of product every month, pay NO shipping AND earn bonus credit to spend on your future orders.(change delivery time and items as you want) So I hear you saying "But I dont need $100 of supplements each month!” but stop and look at household things you buy somewhere else. Sunshine toothpaste, Sunshine Concentrate liquid cleaner, Nature’s Fresh spray, healthy gum and mints, Pau d'Arco tea or Herbal beverage for a coffee replacement, Very Berry drink punch Sea salt and Red pepper in shakers, Solstic energy drink paks, flax oil for salad dressing (add to fresh lemon), Stock up on first aid items like Vitamin C powder, Probiotics, Tea tree oil, Peppermint oil, Lavender oil, kids Chewable vitamins, hand sanitizer (use Silver Shield gel to kill virus up to 4 hours), lip balm, face wash and much more!
Turn your friends or family onto the great way you feel and see if they want you to buy them a bottle of something to feel as good as you. Read about all these on my website.
People appreciate hearing about YOUR solutions to the problems in today’s world- how to have more energy, sleep better, lose weight, keep you and your family healthy all winter, (try Seasonal Defense or the Elderberry formulas). Share how to take care of small first aid issues yourself and to clean the house safely without toxic products. Try sharing your good results and offering to help them get some of what you used.
