Foundation for Healthy Holidays

Hey, have another piece of cheesecake.” “Have you tried my Grandma’s Delightfully Decadent Double-chocolate Fudge?” “Say, could you be a greeter for the five special performances of ‘The Nutcracker’ next week?”
During the holidays, temptations to eat forbidden goodies and demands for our time abound. The combination—stress and lack of rest coupled with poor nutrition—can often be unhealthy, especially since the holidays come just when cold and flu seasons are in full swing.

Dynamic Duo to the Rescue

What can we do to stay healthy during the holidays? Try turning to AIM’s Dynamic Duo, AIM BarleyLife® and AIM Herbal Fiberblend®. Beginning your day with AIM BarleyLife® will provide you with the full spectrum of nutrients you may not have the time or the inclination to eat during the hectic holiday season. Ending your day with AIM Herbal Fiberblend® can help invigorate a sluggish and overworked digestive system as well as eliminate the buildup of toxins that can occur from the abundance of rich or preservative-laden foods that seem to find their way into our systems during this time of year.

AIM BarleyLife® for energy and resilience

The holidays can be challenging. Somehow, in an already hectic world, the pace of life picks up. Whenever our pace changes, our routines lose structure and important habits tend to slip. We may begin to skip breakfast, eat fast food more regularly, or reach for what is handy versus what is healthy. For a short time, our bodies can handle a diversion from excellent nutrition. However, since the holidays tend to begin in late October and continue through the end of the year, the wear on our bodies can be tremendous. It is good at such times to safeguard a few very key elements of your healthy lifestyle.
First, each morning, before the holiday frenzy captures your attention, begin your day with AIM BarleyLife®. AIM BarleyLife® will provide you with the antioxidants, such as lutonarin and SOD (Superoxide dimutase) to counteract those free radicals that tend to run rampant when our bodies are challenged by stress, foods we aren’t used to, and less rest than normal. The proteins, vitamins, and minerals in AIM BarleyLife® provide the energy you need to meet holiday demands. You may find it challenging to consume all the recommended fruits and vegetables. AIM BarleyLife® supplies two to three times more nutrients per serving than those found in a typical serving of green vegetables. With proper nourishment on board, you will not only experience greater energy, your body will be better able to fight off winter colds and flus. The more challenging your schedule is, the more you need your AIM BarleyLife®. So start each day with AIM BarleyLife®.

AIM Herbal Fiberblend® for regularity and vitality

The holidays deliver a one-two punch to our digestive systems. First, we tend to eat rich foods, fast foods, and unusual foods in quantities which may come as a shock to our bodies. Our digestive systems can go into a tailspin as a result. Second, we tend to be on-the-go more, often taking trips to visit family or for special vacations. Traveling tends to have a negative effect on our digestive systems for many reasons. We seldom drink all the water we need when traveling. We also change our sleeping and activity patterns which affects the efficiency of our digestive system, resulting in sluggish digestion and elimination. Simply put, holidays and constipation seem to go together. Here’s help—AIM Herbal Fiberblend®!
Ending each day with AIM Herbal Fiberblend® during the holidays will give your digestive system the extra boost it needs to function properly. Why do we recommend taking AIM Herbal Fiberblend® at the end of the day? Just before bedtime, life has calmed just a little, and you have the time to follow this simple routine. If you try to fit it into the middle of your day, it will often be forgotten in the holiday rush. It is also best to let AIM Herbal Fiberblend® work while you sleep.

Cascara sagrada for colon tone and regularity

Cascara sagrada is considered one of the safest laxatives that can be used to tone the colon. Clinical trials have proven its value as a thorough and gentle colon cleanser. It is also noted for its effectiveness in detoxification.
Combined with conventional measures to soften the stool, such as adding plenty of fiber to your diet, drinking sufficient water, and exercising, cascara sagrada is an excellent choice for relief from occasional constipation. It can also be useful in preventing the pain and pressure associated with hemorrhoids. Since cascara sagrada causes both quicker and gentler bowel movements, hemorrhoids are less likely to develop with its use.

Two AIM sources for cascara sagrada

AIM Herbal Fiberblend® includes cascara sagrada in its formulation. The combination of fiber, herbs, and the cascara sagrada provides for excellent colon care with AIM Herbal Fiberblend®.
In Canada, AIM Cascara Sagrada™ is available as a “stand alone” product, that is, each capsule contains 500 mg of cascara sagrada. For acute constipation, AIM Cascara Sagrada™ can get things moving again gently and effectively. Please note: if after 8 to 10 days of use, constipation persists, you may wish to consult a health care practitioner.
