Sponsored ContentIs Your Immune System at Risk? - Sponsored content provided by Afexa Life Services Inc.
The immune system is our safety net and our body’s protector against disease and infection. For us to live the full and active lives we want, it needs to be strong. However, few people realize that our immune systems are under constant attack. Despite our best efforts to live healthy lifestyles, our immune systems become weakened by factors in our daily lives – Things that often go unnoticed or are out of our control. Fortunately there are some powerful ways to build the immune system and defend against these persistent daily stressors.

The Connection Between Belly Fat, Skin Tags, Facial Hair Growth and Diabetes - Sponsored content provided by Lorna Vanderhaeghe
The connection between belly fat, skin tags, facial hair growth in women and diabetes is elevated insulin. Insulin is a powerful hormone that, in excess, also causes an elevation in circulating male hormones (called androgens). Androgens cause facial hair growth in women and acne, and worsen polycystic ovarian syndrome. Thankfully, busting belly fat and normalizing insulin and male hormones just got easier. For the past 25 years, a nutrient called D-chiro-inositol has been involved in over 30 published studies at the Virginia Medical School. Sold as Chirositol™ in Canada, it mimics insulin activity, thereby helping to control blood glucose levels, glucose storage or disposal of glucose in the cell. And it will not cause low blood sugar in those with normal blood sugar levels. Look for Glucosmart with Chirositol™

Getting up too often in the night? - Sponsored content provided by A.Vogel
Gary M. wasn’t sleeping well at all. Every night he would have to get up six or seven times to go to the bathroom. Gary is not alone. The problem is caused by an enlarged prostate gland, a small gland that is part of the urinary system in men, below the bladder and surrounding the tube that allows urine to flow out of the bladder. The problem usually comes on gradually as men age and their prostate gland expands and constricts the urine outlet tube. Saw palmetto can help.
