4 Steps to Better Health



4 Steps to Better Health


Let's get started...


Step 1: Nutritional Supplements


It's possible to learn HOW to better your health in only 4 steps and this article will show you how. Each step is a bite-sized nugget of healthy living information you can actually use.

Let's get started...


Step 1: Nutritional Supplements


In my opinion, they are very necessary and very beneficial- especially when combined with healthy eating habits. It's very difficult to get all the nutrients your body needs through food alone, but combining proper nutrition with nutritional supplements is very powerful.


That being said, the one supplement everyone should be taking is a good multi vitamin/mineral. Look at it as added insurance- eating well is crucial, but now that you're also taking a multi, you can rest assured you're getting the nutrients your body needs.


Step 2: Nutrition


Good nutrition is SO important. You are what you eat...remember that. Make a conscious effort to gradually improve your eating habits, eating more of the good foods (nuts, berries, peanut butter, olive oil, greens, chicken, whole grains, etc.) and less of the bad foods (fried food, saturated fat, fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, etc.). Reading the label of what you're eating will tell you a lot.


You may think you lack the needed will power, but you'll be amazed at what happens when you start to gradually improve your eating habits.


Step 3: Exercise


Exercise is the missing piece of the puzzle when it comes to better health. There are so many benefits of exercising, including stronger bones and improved libido- it's a no brainer to start doing it. Your goal should be to exercise 3-5 times a week with a combination of cardio exercises and strength training (but no more than 1 hour per workout session).


It's been measured that if you add 3 pounds of muscle to your body, this added muscle will burn as many calories as if you ran 1 mile. Muscle burns calories!


Step 4: Stress Management and Sleep


Stress management and getting good sleep each night round out your path to better health. Until you find a way to manage your stress, it will continue to do damage to your body. Two tips you might want to implement include prioritizing your day each morning and practicing deep breathing exercises (yes, you probably already knew this, but have you tried it?).


Getting enough sleep each night is equally important when you consider your body uses this time to repair itself. You should aim for 7-9 hours each night. Two tips you might want to implement include exercising and avoiding late night eating.


Now that you have the basics, expand on this information. Step 1 research more about Nutritional Supplements, Step 2 research more about Nutrition and so on. I guarantee after the 4 steps you'll feel more confident about reaching your health & fitness goals.

Anyone Can Claim to Be Therapeutic Grade.

Anyone Can Claim to Be Therapeutic Grade.

Only Young Living Can Claim Young Living Therapeutic Grade.

The process Young Living uses when planting, cultivating, harvesting, and distilling a batch of oil is crucial
to retaining its vital compounds. Without the exact blend of naturally-occurring plant chemicals, an essential
oil can lose its beneficial properties and fail to produce the desired effect.

Young Living Therapeutic Grade (YLTG) means that every essential oil Young Living distills or sources has the
optimal naturally-occurring blend of constituents to maximize the desired effect. Young Living is able to make
this assertion because of our strict cultivation process—illustrated by the Four Ps—that guarantees the optimal
potency of every Young Living essential oil.

Plants

An oil's potency can be affected not only by selecting the proper plant to cultivate, but also by where the plant
is grown, the quality of soil in which the seed is planted, and even the time of day it's harvested.

Young Living has extensive experience selecting the correct species of plant for desired oil potency, planting under
optimal conditions, using ideal soil and natural methods to encourage growth, and knowing the precise time to harvest
each crop. Only those plants that produce the most active and widest array of therapeutic compounds are selected.
Preparation

Once the optimal soil, plant, cultivation, and harvesting conditions have been adhered to, the plants must be
distilled properly in order to meet Young Living Therapeutic Grade standards. Young Living uses a gentle,
proprietary technique for steam-extracting the most potent essential oils, which remains unmatched throughout
the essential oils industry.

To meet Young Living Therapeutic Grade distillation standards proper temperature must be maintained throughout
the distillation process, and pressure, length of time, equipment, and batch size are strictly monitored.
Purity

Young Living Therapeutic Grade standards prohibit the acceptance of any diluted, cut or adulterated oils.
Every product Young Living produces—essential oils, essential oils, nutritional supplements, or personal care—meets
strict purity standards.

Every batch of essential oils is subjected to rigorous, state-of-the-art analysis at the Young Living
chemistry lab. Using some of the most advanced equipment in the world, our scientists subject every
batch of essential oils to Gas Chromatograph and Mass Spectrometer testing, and heavy metals analysis.
Oils that exhibit even the slightest hint of possible adulteration or tampering are rejected
.
Potency

The culmination of the preceding three stages, Potency means that the naturally occurring
compounds contained in each essential oil product are of the highest and most consistent
bioactive levels. Without strict adherence to the Young Living Therapeutic Grade standard
in the Plant, Preparation, and Purity phases, the final product would not have the
necessary potency to create the desired effect.
