Got Jetlag
Use Melatonin. Taking 1-3mg of melatonin 30 minutes prior to bedtime will help reset your clock much faster. The sublingual tablets appear to work better than tablets and capsules. Your dose can vary depending on your specific needs. Melatonin use should start 3-5 days prior to your trip and continue for the same number of days upon your return.

Children need to take a good broad spectrum multivitamin and mineral everyday. Science has shown that prolonged nutrient depletion can lead to more serious health challenges over time.

Take Care of Your Kids!
Omega-3's from fish, Grandma always said "eat your fish it will make you smarter". Omega-3's benefit our children's: brain development, eye development, joints, mental clarity, heart health, and general health and development. In conversation with parents they are having success treating their children's ADD and ADHD with Omega-3's with a high DHA to EPA ratio, similar to the ratio's found in breast milk. (please consult you doctor first before administering Omega-3's to your child as a treatment for ADD or ADHD)

The Truth About Belly Fat
There is no magic pill for belly fat. There are supplements that help, like CLA and L-Carnitine. But a combination of things might help, for example: controlling stress, getting 8 hours a sleep, drinking a minimum of 8 glasses of water, eating 6 small meals a day, and doing a combination of cardiovascular exercise and weight training. You can not get that six pack by targeting. Just doing abs is not going to cut it.You have to work the entire body.

You'll find that you will look forward to this time of your day. Remember you are the most important person.

Give Your Body a Break
For one day a week try all liquids. Your digestive system, kidneys, and liver is always working, and depending on what your eating they're working overtime. Don't worry you're not going to starve to death. Believe it or not, we tend to eat to much. By giving your organs a chance to recharge, you will have more energy and more focus than ever before.
