<p>I asked, &#8220;What did you have for breakfast this morning?&#8221; His response came slowly . . . &#8220;The usual, a double mocha latte. He quickly added, &#8221; I needed a pick-me-up,  but I was in a hurry.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/double mocha latte.jpg" alt="Double Mocha Latte . . . Mmmm!" width="186" height="126" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>Ummm . . . Scrumptious! </strong></em></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">
<p>I said, &#8221; So you let &#8216;if and but&#8217; get in the way of your body receiving proper nutrition. You start your conversation off with &#8216;If I eat a balanced meal&#8217; and ended with, &#8220;but I was in a hurry.&#8221;</p>
<p>I continued. &#8220;How many fish did you catch before breakfast? Did you tend your garden this morning?</p>
<p>Was that a &#8220;trap door closing&#8221; look on his face.</p>
<p>Tasting victory, I asked, &#8220;So that&#8217;s one meal missed. What do you do now, eat twice as much of the right food groups for lunch? You and I both know that&#8217;s not gonna happen.&#8221; He chuckled. I had him.</p>
<p>&#8220;Dude,&#8221; I said, &#8220;I was in a hurry as well, but I take one minute to sip an ounce of liquid multivitamin everyday and my body receives all of the essential nutrients it needs for that day. Takes less than a minute. It&#8217;s almost too easy.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="My GBG Affiliate Link" href="http://lliquidvitaminsonline.net" target="_blank"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/10 Formulas in One_1.jpg" alt="GBG Flyer 10 in One" width="470" height="335" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p>&#8220;Yeah, but your vitamin would cost me money every day!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Well you said you ordered the &#8216;usual.&#8217; What did that double mocha latte with a twist of whatever cost you? And not only in dollars and cents. What&#8217;s all that sugar doing to your system on a daily basis? Should I go on? I&#8217;ll choose the liquid vitamin every time.&#8221;</p>
<p>Clang! Went the trap door.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Consider My Case Rested</strong></span></p>
<p>We all could go without supplements if the foods we ate were whole, packed with nutrition, inexpensive, plentiful, easy to prepare and convenient.</p>
<p>But instead, the foods we consume are processed, fortified and sprayed with colorization. (why do you think that apple is so red?)</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Back to the study</strong></span></p>
<p>After eight weeks the participants in the study had their nutrient levels examined.</p>
<p>The participants who were given the multivitamin and not the placebo, including those who had indicated they were already eating folic fortified food, had much higher levels of many of our body&#8217;s  essential nutrients.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>So What&#8217;s My Conclusion? </strong></span></p>
<p>For us baby boomers, even if we strive to eat the best foods, the use of a daily multivitamin can only help us maintain optimal nutritional levels.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been taking a multivitamin daily for about two years now. Maybe it&#8217;s the vitamin or maybe it&#8217;s the fact that I feel pretty good all the time that people notice my energy level remains high.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m telling you, life is good if we let it be. If we feel good, it shows. People notice the difference. If our bodies receive the essential nutrients every day, we probably feel good.</p>

<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>As an Analogy: </strong></span></p>
<p>Why is the term &#8220;ran out of gas&#8221; applied to so many different situations where people come up short? Because everybody knows what that means. A marathoner runs 24.5 miles in a few hours and drops to the ground less than half a mile from the finish line. Why? He ran out of (essential nutrients) gas.</p>
<p>Why do some people need &#8220;pick me ups&#8221; in the middle of their work-day? Chocolate bar, energy drink of choice; Their body &#8220;ran out of gas.&#8221; They lacked proper nutrient levels.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/out of gas.jpg" alt="Whipped!" width="216" height="151" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>We Boomers  Need to &#8220;Get Back to Zero.&#8221;</strong></span></p>
<p>That&#8217;s my reference  to taking the right multivitamin and mineral supplement that will shore up our systems.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s simple. Our bodies need a finite amount of essential nutrients daily (like a car needs gas) to perform at optimal levels. Our daily activities drain what nutrients we have stored up.</p>
<p>With the foods we eat lacking in proper nutrition, we start off below zero and work our way down.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>In conclusion</strong></span></p>
<p>I say, &#8220;take a sip of a good multivitamin every day, and get yourself back to zero.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>

We&#8217;re now considered &#8220;older.&#8221; Can you believe it? Seems like just yesterday we were . . . 20, 30, 40, or was it 50? Hmmm, memory fades with age.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>But That Was Then</strong></span></p>
<p>Today I&#8217;m writing about nutritional needs for our ageing bodies. Younger generations could benefit from this information too. After all if you start young and maintain a healthy regimen, good habits alone will carry you for decades.</p>
<p>So check this out. There was a clinical study recently that observed Baby Boomers and older adults who had been given either a multivitamin or a placebo, daily, for a total of eight weeks.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/Placebo Please.jpg" alt="Placebo Please1" width="210" height="111" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Will the Real Multi-Vitamin Please Stand Up . . .</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p>The study was geared to determine the effects of multivitamins on the nutritional status of older adults. Baby Boomers come to mind, because I am one.</p>
<p>Many boomers feel that if we &#8220;eat right&#8221; we don&#8217;t really need to add the expense of a multivitamin or mineral to our diets. Been there, heard that.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>An Apple a Day</strong></span></p>
<p>I had the &#8220;Apple a Day . . .&#8221; debate with my very good, very skeptical friend last week. We debate a lot.</p>
<p>He has issues with network marketing companies, so every chance he gets he will corner me about my products.</p>
<p>During our conversation he mentioned several times how he felt too exhausted after work to study for exams, etc.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/Sleeping.jpg" alt="Chillin" width="158" height="109" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>Usually when I hear certain words it triggers memories, so when he said the word exhausted, I thought of the benefits of the multivitamin that I market and sell. Naturally I mentioned it.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s like he was baiting the trap for me to mention my product.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>He Leaped</strong></span></p>
<p>His premise was, &#8220;That&#8217;s what I&#8217;m talking about. I knew you were going to bring up your vitamin, but it&#8217;s like this. If at every meal, I eat a balanced diet of fruits, grains, vegetables, lean beef, and fish etc., I don&#8217;t need to spend my hard earned cash on your vitamin. I can grow my own vegetables, catch the fish myself, and so on.&#8221; His conversation was peppered with statistics and words like essential nutrients, folic acid, etc.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/fruits and vegetables.jpg" alt="Fruits and Veggies" width="222" height="131" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>He then leaned back in his chair, assured of a verbal victory. I was grinning, because he was absolutely right! It&#8217;s possible to eat the correct amount of nutritional sustenance, but man!, is it time consuming. And secondly, yes, I did bring up my vitamin.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #000080;"> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Cancer?</strong> Despite someone&#8217;s bed alarm going off at that precise moment, it got really quiet, an almost creepy calm. I was having a &#8220;not me&#8221; moment. &#8220;Ok, hold on a minute doc, you said cancer?&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">I was in shock. Thoughts were racing. He said the &#8220;C&#8221; word. I&#8217;d been healthy all of my life. I ate right. I worked out regularly. I had to tell my husband. I was frightened. What about my son? My mom? My business? What about . . .</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">I barely heard doc when he said, &#8220;We&#8217;ll set up an appointment for your endoscopy; it will be an outpatient procedure, and the results of that will show us how to proceed.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/Endoscopy.jpg" alt="Endoscopy" width="300" height="160" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">My husband. &#8220;Oh my God!&#8221; As I tried to tell him the results of the test, tears of fear started flowing. I was no longer in control. He was strong until later, when he thought no one was watching.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;What if’s&#8221; violated my mind. I couldn’t dismiss the thought that there might be a possibility of cancer. I had seen people who had cancer. I have known people who had cancer. It can’t happen to me. I won’t let it. I’ll be alright . . . I&#8217;m not in control.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>The Endoscopy Results and Other Stuff</strong></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">After the procedure I was taken to the recovery room. Once I was coherent, I was taken to the waiting room and . . . you guessed it, I waited.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Finally the doctor came in with my results. He was upbeat. His first words were, &#8220;There are no signs of cancer.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">My chest deflated. Until that moment I hadn&#8217;t realized I was holding my breath. He said, &#8220;Basically, we should be able to control your acid reflux with medication.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;Thank you Jesus.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Several years have passed</strong> since, and I am happy to report I still have no signs of erosion and with the help of my good doctor, we&#8217;ve been able to control the acid reflux with medication. I take a 25mg. Proton Pump Inhibitor once a day for the acid reflux.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="font-size: large;">:</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/proton pump.jpg" alt="Proton Pump" width="107" height="110" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>:</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>I also have had to:</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>avoid foods that contain acid like tomatoes, orange juice caffeinated coffee and beverages</li>
<li>lose weight (oh yes),</li>
<li>eat small, frequent meals (this one is hard, I’m not hungry all the time),</li>
<li>avoid lying down for 3 hours after a meal</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Believe me, this routine is not an easy task, being human, but I give it my best shot.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">When I backslide, and sometimes I do, I can expect the possibility that I will be awakened in the middle of the night with the worst pain in my chest.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Just in case, I keep a stash of antacid tablets by the bed for relief.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">So far, so good. By maintaining a strict regimen, I&#8217;ve been able to keep the reflux under control.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Now comes today</strong>. As I did a little research for this article, I learned something. I found out that stomach exercises can cause acid to back up in your stomach. Me, who just got finished with doing my daily sit-up routine. &#8220;What the . . . is next?&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>So what have I learned?</strong></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">It takes sitting in a waiting room for hours to make us realize, no one is really in control.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">We bounce from task to task doing the best we can with what we have. We eventually learn to control what we can and let God handle the rest.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">What&#8217;s going to pop up next? Who knows.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">What is a girl going to do? A girl is going to <em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Live!!!</span></em></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Thanks for taking the time to read my story. Hope it helps you or someone you care for.</p>

<p style="text-align: right;"><strong>.</strong></p>
<h1><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;">It Was My Turn . . . </span></span></h1>
<p>“See you when I get back,” I smiled and waved at my husband and mother-in-law as I walked through the door for the procedure. We all had on our game faces, although I was pretending not to be nervous, I failed miserably.</p>
<p>The procedure, surprisingly, wasn&#8217;t uncomfortable and didn’t seem to take too long. I don’t remember feeling a thing. After they wheeled me back to the recovery room, the nurse placed a weight on my incision area to keep pressure on it.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/hospital bed.jpg" alt="Hospital Bed" width="214" height="117" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ok,&#8221; I&#8217;m thinking, &#8220;I&#8217;m laying here in a hospital bed, with a heavy weight on an incision, on an empty stomach. How much more am I going to have to take? &#8221; Hospital visits tend to make some people irritable. I am normally in control of emotions but I was beginning to understand their rationale.</p>
<p>After about an hour, an orderly, or somebody, came in with some juice for me to drink and a light snack to munch on while I continued to wait for my results from the testing.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/hospital food.jpg" alt="Hospital Food" width="191" height="137" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000080;"><strong>Crunch time (so to speak)</strong></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>As I sat up in the bed eating every drop, the doctor came in and said, &#8220;We have the results and you&#8217;re fine in that area, we&#8217;re giving you a clean bill of health. You don&#8217;t have any blockages.&#8221;</p>
<p>Relief flooded through me. Yes! Thank you God!</p>
<p>Feelings of anxiety returned within a half hour.  Even with the news of no blockage, to lift my spirits, I was still having major chest pains before I arrived home that day. I had to find out what was causing them.</p>
<p>After scheduling the earliest appointment I could get, a week later I went to see my regular doctor. I didn&#8217;t sit down because it hurt too much to get back up. I said, &#8220;We have to find out what&#8217;s going on with me. I can&#8217;t take much more of this.&#8221;</p>
<p>He could tell right away something was wrong and scheduled me immediately for more x-rays. Off to the hospital I went.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>&lt;    :     &gt;</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/chest xray machine standing.jpg" alt="Standing xray" width="152" height="205" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>&lt;    :    &gt;</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Prognosis</strong></p>
<p>When Doc came into the waiting room, he was smiling. &#8220;Further testing has confirmed my suspicions, you have what is called a &#8220;Hiatal&#8221; hernia. &#8220;A what?&#8221; I asked.</p>
<p>Doc began to explain. Now this is not his exact explanation, but this is the gist of what he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;A Hiatal hernia is an anatomical abnormality, where part of your stomach protrudes through the diaphragm and up into your chest. Sometimes this condition causes acid reflux.&#8221;</p>
<p>I had heard of acid reflux.</p>
<p>&#8220;You see,&#8221; he continued, &#8220;your esophagus sits on top of your diaphragm. A Hiatal hernia is located <span style="text-decoration: underline;">between</span> your esophagus and your diaphragm.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/hiatal hernia 1.jpg" alt="Hiatal Hernia" width="235" height="165" /></p>
<p>.</p>
<p>Because of this, it causes acid to back up into the esophagus. Therefore you experience pain in the upper abdomen.</p>
<p>The pain can be in the form of heartburn, chest pain, regurgitation or nausea, some of the symptoms you were having.&#8221;</p>
<p>I&#8217;m a woman who likes to get to the point, so I said, &#8220;Ok, my question is, now that we know what&#8217;s causing the pain, how do we fix it?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We have to have an endoscopy done to see if there is any damage to your esophagus,&#8221; Doc went on to explain, &#8220;the acid could erode your stomach lining and cause cancer.&#8221;</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>&#8220;Cancer?&#8221;</strong></span></p>

<h1><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>(Guided By God)</strong></span></span></h1>
<p>Apologies up front if this article comes off &#8220;salesy,&#8221; (is that a word?). But here we go. I&#8217;m going to put it out there.</p>
<p>As you know by now, I am an internet network marketing Baby Boomer. My company of choice is GBG. The name derives from, &#8220;Guided by God.&#8221;</p>
<p>We don&#8217;t hype it, but that&#8217;s where the name comes from, and our founder, Stuart Finger, is sincere about his conviction. The reason I&#8217;m telling it now is because I have been asked often recently, &#8220;What do the letters GBG mean?&#8221;</p>
<p>Most in our community haven&#8217;t heard of GBG, but that&#8217;s going to change, with a quickness. I am so proud of my friends and family who have taken charge of the &#8216;direction&#8217; of their health. If I used such terminology, I&#8217;d say, &#8220;Kudos,&#8221; but I don&#8217;t.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>:</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/black hands apple.jpg" alt="Momma's Hands Apple" width="156" height="103" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">:</span></p>
<p>Boomers are becoming more aware everyday when it comes to our health. Due to that awareness we are getting our diets in check, exercising more, getting good rest and investigating healthy alternatives, and that is where GBG shines.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<h1><span style="color: #003366;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>GBG is Not New to Network Marketing</strong></span></span></h1>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>The company has been around for about fourteen years, and Stuart Finger, the CEO, has proven himself a man of his word when it comes to building a network marketing company with the reps in mind.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s built GBG with passion, patience, perseverance and vitality. From day one.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sure some of you are saying , “Yeah CK, I’ve heard it all before.” But, I say, while inserting a message, &#8220;Don&#8217;t mix apples and donuts.&#8221; Don&#8217;t compare GBG to any other network marketing company you&#8217;ve had the displeasure of working your butt off for.</p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t heard about this company and founder, you might want to investigate.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Jackee Joins GBG!" href="http://createvitality.com/blog/welcome-ms-jackee-harry-to-gbg/" target="_blank"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/jackee 227.jpg" alt="Jackee 227" width="155" height="174" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>Why do you think the beautiful <a title="Jackee Joins GBG!" href="http://createvitality.com/blog/welcome-ms-jackee-harry-to-gbg/" target="_blank">Ms. Jackee Harry joined our company</a> recently. She met with Stuart, saw his vision, (had already tried the product and gotten great results) and became our National Celebrity Spokesperson.</p>
<p>How often do we networkers go to meetings, conferences or listen to calls hosted by the &#8220;sincere, emotional, driven, believer of all things related to his or her company?&#8221; Only to find out in a short while that most of what they are selling is crap.</p>
<p>The last meeting I went to, the overly excited guy on stage kept yelling, &#8220;Don&#8217;t miss this boat!&#8221; Must have said it a hundred times.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<h1><span style="color: #000080;"><strong><span style="font-size: medium;">Well, that&#8217;s not GBG</span></strong></span></h1>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>I was the biggest skeptic when introduced to GBG by my good friend and associate, <a title="Sergio's Website" href="http://sergiorozzelle.com" target="_blank">Sergio Rozzelle</a>. Matter of fact, I want to pause and say, &#8220;Thank you man for insisting I take a look at this company, you&#8217;re a true friend. Don&#8217;t sweat the skeptics.&#8221; But thank goodness you were persistent. I owe you big time my brother. We&#8217;ve got this.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>GBG&#8217;s Direction</strong></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>Stuart Finger has masterfully guided his company through much turbulence and he did it with integrity, honesty and a tunnel vision most of us can only dream about.</p>
<p>Yeah, maybe I sound like some of those guys I mentioned above, but I can prove what I say.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<h1><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Stuart Finger provides leadership</strong></span></span></h1>
<p style="text-align: right;"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;">.<strong><br />
</strong></span></span></p>
<p>GBG is a real network marketing company, run by a real network marketer, who is in the trenches with the rest of us. He makes his living doing what we do, selling GBG products, in addition to running his company. How cool is that?</p>
<p>A great company does not take advantage of its reps; it provides great leadership, products, training and compensation.</p>
<p>GBG, through Stuart Finger, does that in spades.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<h1><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #000080;">Q. Is GBG a Pyramid Scheme? </span></span></h1>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">A. No. We have products. Some, certified by the Glycemic Index.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Q. Are we required to purchase inferior products that get shoved to the back of the closet? </span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">A. No. We buy one bottle of GBG&#8217;s Ten in One™ Liquid Multi Formula for $29.95 plus shipping.</span></li>
</ul>
<h1><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>With that purchase we receive:</strong></span></span></h1>
<ol>
<li>A Free Business.</li>
<li>A Free Website.</li>
<li>Free Landing Pages.</li>
</ol>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><strong>&#8220;But I don&#8217;t want to run a business CK.&#8221;</strong></span></p>
<p>You don&#8217;t have to work the business in order to enjoy the benefits of the products. I just happened to (after decades of searching) find my passion, in advocating better health for boomers. Now I have a good product to assist me in that cause. I&#8217;m done searching! Man, I can&#8217;t express to you how good this feels.</p>
<p>Hah! I just this second realized something. I had to wait to become a boomer, to get passionate about helping boomers. How &#8217;bout it!</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>But I digress.</strong></span></span></p>
<p>No. We don&#8217;t have to work the business, but it&#8217;s there for the taking. And if you know 6 people who need supplements and they sign with you, the cost of your monthly bottle of GBG&#8217;s 10 In One™ Liquid Multi Formula is covered.</p>
<p>Do I chase friends and family members down and figuratively beat them over the head with our great products until they give up and buy in to the plan? No, because that&#8217;s not the way I&#8217;m building my business, but that&#8217;s another article. If you want to know how I am building my business, email me at <a title="Email CK Dillon" href="mailto:charles@createvitality.com" target="_blank">Charles@CreateVitality.Com</a></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Here&#8217;s a tip:</strong></span></span></p>
<p>If you are considering network marketing, don&#8217;t go for the hype and join the wrong company, with wrong training, wrong product, wrong leadership . . . should I go on?</p>
<p>At least do yourself the favor of clicking on my affiliate link to, <a title="My GBG Affiliate link" href="http://liquidvitaminsonline.net" target="_blank">give GBG a good look</a>.</p>
<p>This just might be the boat we didn&#8217;t miss. Thanks for reading. Got a little long-winded.</p>

<p style="text-align: right;"><strong>.</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>I‘m Thinking, “For what?” </strong></span></p>
<p>Still not knowing what was going on, I was beginning to become frightened. Scared to death is more like it.</p>
<p>My nature was, and still is sometimes, to keep things bottled up. As I sat patiently in the waiting room with my husband and mother-in-law, they didn’t have a clue.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/waiting room.jpg" alt="Waiting Room" width="231" height="129" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>I just prayed everything was going to be alright.</p>
<p>After what seemed like hours, they finally called me back into the office.  “Here it comes.”</p>
<p>The cardiologist said, “Because of the results of your tests, and your family history, we’re going to schedule a procedure next week.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;What kind of procedure?&#8221; I asked.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>“We’re going to have to insert an <span style="text-decoration: underline;">angiography catheter</span> to detect if there is blockage in your blood vessels.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/angio catheter.jpg" alt="Catheter" width="177" height="140" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>“OMG!” I&#8217;m thinking, &#8220;this is getting serious.&#8221;</p>
<p>So What&#8217;s Next?</p>
<p>On the day of the procedure I was told to arrive at the hospital by 7 a.m., with an empty stomach.</p>
<p>They had me sit in the cardiac outpatient wing, where I waited “patiently, so to speak” to be examined. When my name was called, I was escorted to the bed and given a hospital gown to put on.</p>
<p>The same nurse from before, the one who had snatched me off the treadmill, said, “We’re going to place you under a local anesthesia, &#8220;hon,&#8221; do you want to watch the monitors during the testing?”</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/heart monitor.jpg" alt="Heart Monitor" width="382" height="93" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">.</p>
<p>My husband, who has a notoriously weak stomach, looked at me and laughed out loud saying, &#8220;She don&#8217;t know who she&#8217;s talking to,&#8221; because he knew. He is always teasing me about how I like to watch medical procedures on television, (while he leaves the room) so he knew the answer was a definite, &#8220;yes.&#8221;</p>
<p>Once the nurse got me hooked up to an IV, the waiting began. I was allowed to sit up and watch TV while waiting for my turn in the operating room.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/iv drip.jpg" alt="IV Drip" width="201" height="139" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>Now I understand why they call it the &#8220;waiting&#8221; room. My wait went on for seven hours due to the fact that a few people who were having procedures had heart attacks, while on the table, during their operations. Those were emergencies. Mine was not that serious.</p>
<p>Believe me, listening to all the commotion outside my room did not set well. The stress started to creep in. I don’t know if stress causes hunger but boy, let me tell you, I was ready to eat and even worse, I hadn&#8217;t been able to drink anything. Way off my routine.</p>
<p>Finally in the late afternoon, my stomach was in the midst of an exceptionally loud  growl when the nurse came to the door and said, &#8220;Time to go &#8220;hon.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><span style="color: #000080;">The Stress Caught Me Off Guard</span></strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">When the pain hit, it hit hard.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I felt like I was about to leave this place. I got in touch with my doctor to set up an appointment for a check-up, to determine why I was in such pain.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">He performed an EKG on the spot, right there in his office, but could find no indication of a problem.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/ekg.jpg" alt="ekg" width="137" height="103" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">It figures. Some times when you go to the doctor your symptoms seem to stay at home, waiting for your return.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Doc prescribed a medication for me to take in case of more pain, until I could see a cardiologist that he was going to refer me to.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">In March, I walked into the cardiologist’s office not knowing what to expect. He had set me up with an echo and stress test that took pretty much all day.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>The Morning Session: </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Was spent on a machine that took pictures of my chest and heart area<strong>. </strong>A solution of Dye<strong> </strong>was injected to highlight the areas of interest. This was the easy part.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/chest xray machine.jpg" alt="xray mach" width="211" height="161" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Just lay there and listen to the sounds and movements of the machine.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>Then came the afternoon and the Treadmill: </strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">It began as an easy, slow paced walk with gradual buildup. I thought, “ piece of cake,” because I loved to walk. After all I walked the hills of my neighborhood everyday for exercise. &#8220;This is what I do!&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Things were going smoothly. I was walking, had a good rhythm, not much pain, in control, I thought.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>&#8220;Get her off of there!” </strong>Someone shouted.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/treadmill.jpg" alt="treadmill" width="180" height="122" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">The nurse rushed over, hurriedly turned off the treadmill and quickly unhooked me. She told me to, &#8220;Sit down right here,&#8221; as she pointed to the closest chair, &#8220;put your head between your knees, relax and breathe deeply.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;m thinking, &#8220;relax?&#8221; I was shaking. I looked up at her and asked several times, “What’s wrong?”</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;It&#8217;s ok &#8220;hon,&#8221; she repeated, &#8220;just put your head between your knees, relax and breathe deeply, you&#8217;ll be ok.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/head and knees.jpg" alt="head between knees" width="109" height="103" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">I was frustrated. I knew that I&#8217;d be ok. She didn&#8217;t have to tell me that. I didn’t feel any differently as I sat there, I wasn&#8217;t sick, just a little chest pain, nothing intense. But as it turns out, the heart monitor&#8217;s read-out offered a different conclusion.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">After my vitals returned to normal, doc said, “I need you to go out and have a seat in the waiting room, I’m going to set you up with another specialist.”</p>

<p>Watched any TV lately?</p>
<p>Heck, I used to be one of those people who proudly bragged to anyone who would listen; &#8220;I don&#8217;t watch TV.&#8221;</p>
<p>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/tv.jpg" alt="tv" width="129" height="102" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p>After one such announcement I was stunned when this woman said to me, &#8220;Hmmph, so you one of them smug bastards who too gooooood to watch tv.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Huh?&#8221; I questioned, caught off guard, &#8220;Well, um, yeah.&#8221;</p>
<p>Had a ton of reasons not to watch, all patterned to fit the situation of the moment. &#8220;I&#8217;m too busy.&#8221; &#8220;It&#8217;s mind-numbing drivel.&#8221; &#8220;Has nothing to do with my &#8216;getting ahead.&#8217;&#8221; &#8220;Personally . . . (pause for effect, while simultaneously rubbing chin) . . . I pursue more intellectual pursuits, per se.&#8221;</p>
<p>Your turn to say, &#8220;Huh?&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Well, that was then</strong></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;">.<strong><br />
</strong></span></span></p>
<p>Television has come a long way since she pounced. We now have multiple choices and thousand inch screens that bathe us in whatever information we choose to wallow in.</p>
<p>Ever notice that even though we have 500 channels to choose from, we still watch the same 5 or 6 channels religiously? Hmmm.</p>
<p>And even though I&#8217;ve beaten around the proverbial bush, this is a health related article.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>Today&#8217;s article is about, The Doctor Oz Show. <img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/Doc Oz Alone.jpg" alt="Doc Oz" width="85" height="117" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>My mom brought up yet again how I&#8217;ve shared my stuff with others most of my life, beginning with when I traded my new snow boots to Melvin Lee. I was in grammar school, probably third grade.</p>
<p>It was late 50&#8217;s. Mid-winter, lower Michigan, 3 feet of snow.</p>
<p>He only had one left boot and a sob-story. I bought into it. We traded for my two new boots, and for some reason I assumed mom would just run out and buy me another pair.</p>
<p>Imagine my surprise when I proudly announced, while displaying the lone left boot, &#8220;Melvin only had one boot, so I traded him for mine.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>&#8220;You did What!&#8221; she said, as I witnessed a 360º neck spin way before <img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/exorcist.jpg" alt="Exorcist" width="116" height="116" />.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>Who knew moms didn&#8217;t just &#8220;run out&#8221; and re-spend money on things they&#8217;d already bought. To his credit, Melvin brought me another left boot after mom called his mom. Seems he lost mine too.</p>
<p>Fast forward (tv term), fifty-plus years later, and I still have the trait. I love to share, and here&#8217;s my latest contribution to the cause.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Tip:</strong></span></span></p>
<p>Presbyopia = older eyes. (I have two of those) That&#8217;s not the original tip, but Doctor Oz just taught it, and I   caught it.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>The Dr. Oz show comes on in my area at 11pm every weeknight. I&#8217;m on the East Coast.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re at all concerned about your health, or know anyone who may need the information, (we all do) you really should take an hour and watch his show. Only one challenge. It can become addicting.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Information: The Drug of Choice</span></strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>The Dr. Oz show is informative to a fault and entertaining to . . . boot. His laid back manner of teaching us about our health is great. That&#8217;s the only way I can say it. I learn something every night I watch his show.</p>
<p>If you are not watching Dr. Oz, you are doing yourself a disservice. But hey, if you do watch it and decide it&#8217;s not for you I&#8217;ll bet you know someone who watches TV; someone who needs the information.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Couch Potatoes Untie! er . . . Unite!</strong></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>So let&#8217;s all share. Give someone a gift of health. Watching the Dr. Oz show is like being in an accelerated health and wellness class. You learn, you laugh, you get healthier, just by watching tv.</p>
<p>How easy is that?</p>

<p>On April 2, 2010, GBG,  my network marketing company of choice, proudly announced, the addition of Ms. Jackée Harry, Star of  television sitcoms, film and theatre, as the new National Spokeswoman for GBG.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>&#8220;Say What!&#8221; <img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/Jackee.jpg" alt="Jackee" width="89" height="118" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>That&#8217;s right, I said it. </strong></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>On her website, Ms. Harry states she had already decided it was time to take better care of herself health-wise. &#8220;That&#8217;s why, when a loved one approached me some time ago, with a liquid  vitamin called 10-in-One (by GBG), not only was I in need of such a  product&#8230;I was actually in search of one.  Every single person on the  planet, no matter who you are, should be consuming nutrients of the  highest quality, DAILY! And if you ask me, GBG&#8217;s 10-in-One provides  those much needed vitamins and nutrients.&#8221;</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>Ms. Harry has starred in a number of TV shows like 227,  <img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/jackee 227.jpg" alt="Jackee 227" width="107" height="121" /> Another World, The Women of Brewster Place, Everybody Hates Chris, etc., but has never endorsed a product such as ours.</p>
<p>GBG, a renowned health and wellness company, shares its owner&#8217;s vision with all of its representatives, now including Ms. Harry.</p>
<p>As the new GBG national spokeswoman, Ms. Harry shares in the vision of GBG&#8217;s founder Stuart Finger. He will readily share, with anyone who will listen, his passion for helping others around the globe, live their best and healthiest of lives.</p>
<p>Ms. Harry, who won an Emmy for her role as Sandra Clark on the hit TV series, 227, has teamed up with GBG, to promote improved health and wealth across America.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/GBG.jpg" alt="GBG LOGO" width="117" height="68" /></p>
<p>Something I seldom say because it is so overused in network marketing is, &#8220;I&#8217;m excited.&#8221;</p>
<p>She is not only a great spokeswoman with a reputation of integrity, she is passionate about our product, GBG&#8217;s Ten In One™ Liquid Multi Formula.</p>
<p>Jackée says on her website, &#8220;it truly is the most amazing product I&#8217;ve ever consumed! Not to mention, it&#8217;s pleasant tasting and entersyour system in around 3 minutes following consumption.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><img class="alignright" src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/super foods.jpg" alt="super foods" width="146" height="157" /></p>
<p>.</p>
<p>I find that it even curtails my cravings for unhealthy foods, which has allowed me to manage my weight, while providing me with previously untapped energy.&#8221;</p>
<p>Having been a fan of Jackée Harry for many years, I find it difficult to imagine her without an abundance of energy. She always seems so full of life, when we are fortunate enough to catch her performances, live or on screen.</p>
<p>She goes on to say on her site, &#8220;In fact, I love the product (GBG&#8217;s Liquid Multi Formula) so much, I decided to align with the company, in</p>
<p>an effort to get the word out about what I feel is truly a super formula. No false claims. No gimmicks. No gotchas. I have NEVER been in the business of endorsing anything I don&#8217;t believe in.”</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/gbg flyer.jpg" alt="gbg flyer" width="185" height="164" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">
<p>But now she is endorsing our company, GBG, and our main product, a liquid multi formula supplement that contains 10 separate formulas.</p>
<p>So I say loudly, &#8220;Welcome, Ms. Harry, to GBG and thank you for recognizing the value of our products. &#8220;How Bout it!&#8221;</p>

<p>April 07, 2010©</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>Hi. My name is Kathy D, and I am a woman who believes in controlling those things we can control. The rest, I try to leave up to God.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>The Beginning:</strong></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>The year was 2003. I was pretty active so I always had a few pains here and there. Nothing to concern myself with. Just deal with it.</p>
<p>After about a week of dealing with it, I realized the constant pain in my chest was not going away, as I had assumed it would. Not only was it not going away, it was becoming more severe.</p>
<p>The pain was lodged dead center, in my upper abdomen. <img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/Chest Pain Woman.jpg" alt="Chest Pain In Women" width="116" height="116" />For some odd reason I just kept assuming it would go away. Sometimes we self diagnose. And we are wrong.</p>
<p>I had gone through so much in such a short time from June 2002 through early 2003. I&#8217;d lost my father in late June and had to travel across country to attend his funeral. After which I had to help settle family business with my mom and brother.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000080;"><strong>Stress is Raising its Head. But I can Handle It </strong></span></span></p>
<p>With only a week to spare, after my return home, we had to pack and load a moving van to transport our household belongings to another state. We had sold our house right before my dad’s unexpected death.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p>My stressful journey continued with the hassles of  moving to a new state,</p>
<p><img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/big rig.jpg" alt="Movers" width="96" height="93" />building a new home, living with in-laws, and making sure my mom got settled into her new home. You see, in the midst of being in control of things, I had convinced mom to move from her home state to be near my brother and I.</p>
<p>Generally, I was a little fatigued, but didn’t pay it much attention. Never for a moment did I believe these added stresses could cause health problems, but evidently I had a lot to learn.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #000080;"><strong>My Symptoms</strong></span></span></p>
<p>One day in early 2003, I began to have serious chest pains. My first thought was I was having heart problems, since heart disease ran in the family, <img src="http://createvitality.com/blog/uploaded/Heart Attack Stopper.jpg" alt="Heart attack Stopped" width="96" height="93" />and my father had passed from heart complications.</p>
