Theres More Than One Way to Give Em What They Need Straight From the Heart: National Donor Day

A Healthy Heart Starts With a Healthy YOU

Your heart is the key to every aspect of wellness! The heart is a sophisticated pump that delivers everything your body needs to where it is needed (i.e., oxygen throughout the body, glucose to the brain, calcium to the bones, amino acids to the muscles). It also removes waste from the blood and drops it off as it circulates through the kidneys. Two ways to keep your heart in top shape include great nutrition and regular physical activity. Lets take a look and get you on the road to your happiest heart ever!

Nutrition
What you eat affects heart health in many ways. I f you eat foods high in cholesterol, plaque builds in your blood vessels, causing your heart to work harder. I f you eat too much food overall, you gain weight. That causes your heart to work harder just to keep performing basic functions. I f you dont eat oily sh at least two to three times per week, your heart may not get enough omega-3 fatty acids, known to keep arteries exible and smooth, as well as reduce triglycerides (bad cholesterol) in the blood. The best thing you can do for your heart through diet is to take good nutrition to heart and follow it! Thats easier said than done. Nutrilite has some new ways to tackle terric nutritional support by identifying the right supplements for YOUR total health picture. A special assessment to help nd out your needs. N  ew supplement packs that support overall nutrition Check out Product Focus (page 2) to learn more.

Physical Activity
Every time you take a walk, work out at the gym, jump rope, or even unload groceries, you are revving up your heart muscle with an aerobic (or anaerobic, if youre maxing out!) boost. Both types of activity offer benets to your heart. Aerobic means with oxygen and is also called cardio activity. Anaerobic, no surprise, means without oxygen. While both have benets, heart health primarily focuses on aerobic activity, which strengthens your heart. Your aerobic heart rate range can be anywhere from 50% to 85% of your maximum heart rate. Your maximum heart rate is determined by subtracting your current age from 220. The Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology also recommends that adults get at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity activity per week (up to 70% of your maximum heart rate) to get those benets.*

Nutrilite Heart Health: Be Mine!

The Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada agrees: Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for optimal heart health. What do they do? A lot more than we can discuss here, but just to get you started, its easy to see why theres a lot to love about NUTRILITE OCEAN ESSENTIALS Heart Health, now part of an exciting new way to support your heart. Introducing the new NUTRILITE Heart Health Pack. Featuring single-dose, grab-and-go packets for a.m. and p.m., the Heart Health Pack teams OCEAN ESSENTIALS Heart Health with CoEnzyme Q10 and NUTRILITE Cholesterol Health for a triple play on maximum heart health support. Omega-3 fatty acids help support healthy blood ow and lipid (fat) levels in the blood. They also are believed to help keep arteries exible and elastic. Research shows that maintaining this elasticity may help control blood pressure, which reduces health risks such as heart attack and stroke.1 OCEAN ESSENTIALS Heart Health and the NUTRILITE Heart Health Pack are a great way to take advantage of the many benets of omega-3 fatty acids. If you dont get the necessary servings of the right sh every week, this is the supplement for you.

Straight From the Heart: National Donor Day

While everyone knows February 14 as Valentines Day, in the United States the spotlight is shared with National Donor Day. The day honors donors and encourages everyone to donate of themselves, literally! Whether donating life-saving blood, bone marrow, organs, tissue, or platelets, it all can save lives. As a heart-transplant recipient himself, Amway co-founder Rich DeVos appreciates the magnitude of such life-saving gifts. Amway employees and Independent Business Owners generously participate in programs such as Easter Seals, United Way, and the Amway ONE BY ONE Campaign for Children. The contributions demonstrate their heartfelt concern for those in need.
