	Walk for Better Emotional Health

What if someone told you there was a free, easy and relaxing way to increase your energy and self-esteem as well as elevate your mood? Well, there is, and it’s simpler than you think. Walking as little as 30 minutes, three times a week can accomplish all of these things and more. Numerous studies have shown that walking correlates with increased energy, better moods, health and nutrition and increased self-esteem. In fact, Dr. James Blumenthal, Ph.D of Duke University, says that walking can be just as effective in relieving the symptoms of depression as standard treatments of anti-depressant drugs.

Despite these known health benefits, many people have trouble finding the time and/or motivation to start a walking program. Here are some tips to make your new program an easy reality:

1. Start slow. Even if you can only walk a few minutes at a time before you need to rest remember: it’s not where you start from, it’s where you’re going that’s important. Make sure to do some easy stretching beforehand and start your program gradually.
2. Make it a routine. Research shows that it takes 21 days to establish a habit; the first three weeks are very important. Work walking into your schedule and stick with it!
3. Make it easy enough to maintain. Some people’s reluctance to start an exercise program stems from previous attempts where they started and failed to continue. This is usually due to high expectations and energy in the beginning of the program, followed by a “burnout” period. Start with simple, easily reachable and sustainable goals so you can keep the habit in the years to come.
4. Incorporate walking into your daily schedule. You don’t always have to walk specifically for exercise. Kill two birds with one stone by walking to the post office or grocery store for example. Give your kids some exercise as well by walking to school to pick them up. If you take public transportation to work, try getting off one stop earlier and walk the rest of the way and make an effort to take the stairs instead of the elevator.
5. Use walking as a way to meet with people. Instead of meeting at a coffee shop or lunch, ask your friend to go on a walk with you. You can enjoy each other’s company and get in on the latest gossip at the same time.

If walking is already part of your daily routine and you want to spice things up a bit try intermixing a light jog or faster pace at intervals throughout your walk. Or, if you want to see some new scenery, look up local hikes for your area and walk new paths.

Consistently doing things to improve our health such as walking or taking a vitamin-mineral supplement such as ALL ONE is sometimes hard to stick to. But if you have the dedication to make it a habit, and work to integrate your healthy choices into your normal schedule, you will benefit from an overall healthier, happier you.

Q & A

Question: Why does the ALL ONE Totally Fiber Complex only have 3g of dietary fiber?

Answer: The answer to this question is somewhat complex. First, the Totally Fiber Complex has more fiber than it seems. The current method of testing fiber content is done in a lab by using an alcohol suspension. This "pulls out" clumps of fiber from a solution and then measures the quantity. This method often disregards many types of soluble fiber, creating a deflated number for those products that get fiber from a variety of sources. The second reason is that ALL ONE Totally Fiber Complex is meant to be a nutritive, everyday supplement to compliment a healthy diet. Many fiber supplements out there simply pack in large amounts of insoluble fiber from a single source. This usually causes a laxative effect and is often draining on the system. Eating large amounts of insoluble fiber in a single dose can cause dehydration and will sap the body of essential nutrients. ALL ONE Totally Fiber Complex is not simply a fiber supplement, it is a wholesome blend of nutritive fiber, essential fatty acids, minerals and herbs to give your body the gentle, everyday cleansing it needs.

Testimonials

"I have never taken vitamins because I never noticed that they helped. Because I trust Doug Kaufmann I decided to give ALL ONE a try and bought the Green Phyto Base and Fruit Antioxidant Formulas. I have been on the products for 4 days. Maybe it is too soon to give ALL ONE the credit, but I have noticed some changes in myself. I have not had heartburn (something I really struggle with). I normally wake up tired and get more fatigued as the day wears on and when I get home from work I'm tired and cranky. I have noticed that about an hour after taking my ALL ONE I perk up and have energy throughout the day. The last and most important change...I'm almost afraid to talk about it for fear of it not being real...but my mood has changed. I am normally a very angry person with no patience for people or my small children. This anger has been a serious issue in my marriage and my life. For the past 2 days I have not felt this anger and I have actually been talking with kindness and love to my family. I know it has only been 2 days but these are noticeable changes. I honestly don't have words to express how I feel right now. Thank you ALL ONE and I'll send an update in 2 months when my Green Phyto Base and Fruit Antioxidant are gone."

Healthy Tip

Change Your Diet To Elevate Your Mood & Health

What you eat affects not only your physical health, but also your mental and emotional steadiness. Vitamins, minerals and amino acids play an important role in directly determining our mood. When they are depleted, or out of balance, what we call "pseudo-emotions" can result. If you are feeling down or low on energy, take a look at your diet and make sure you are receiving these essential nutrients:

•Vitamin B1 - Relieves fatigue; supports a healthy mood; involved in energy promotion; minimizes the effects of stress; promotes a healthy nervous system and proper brain function.
•Vitamin B2 - Crucial for production of energy; supports healthy brain function; has potential to reduce frequency/severity of headaches; promotes mental clarity.
•Vitamin B6 - Critical for healthy mood and mental function; enhances immune function; can help reduce homocysteine levels to support healthy heart function; may help with depression and allergies.
•Vitamin D - The essential mood-boosting component of sunlight; promotes healthy bones and arteries.
•Calcium - Has a relaxing quality; strengthens bones.
•Folic Acid - Essential for the production of important brain chemicals that promote a healthy mood; can help reduce homocysteine levels to support healthy heart function; promotes healthy bones.
•Magnesium – Activates B Vitamins for energy; relaxes muscles.
•Selenium - Promotes energy; can reduce anxiety; boosts immune system; supports cardiovascular health; has anti-aging antioxidant properties.
•Tryptophan – Supports better mood and controls anxiety; relaxes the body; may help with hyper-activity.
•Tyrosine – Evens out mood swings; aids in the function of the adrenal and pituitary glands.

ALL ONE’s blend of vitamins, minerals and amino acids contains all of these nutrients and more.
