Aim to make half your grains whole, eating at least 3 daily servings, or about 48 grams of whole grains per day. Tip: Look for the yellow Whole Grain Stamp on the label to ensure whole-grain content.What’s in a name?When shopping, look for the word whole as the first item on the ingredients list, or for the words 100% whole grain on the product label. Terms such as brown, nine-grain, mixed grain and multi-grain don’t guarantee the product is whole-grain. |

How to Choose the Best Sunscreen
Borrowed from: Lisa Fayed | |
Choosing the Right SPF in Sunscreen | |
SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. The higher the SPF number, the better protection against the sun's harmful UVB rays. The SPF number lets you know how much longer you can stay out of the sun without burning. For example, if it takes 15 minutes for a person to burn, an SPF 15 will allow them to stay out in the sun 15 times longer without burning. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends wearing an SPF of 15 or higher for maximum protection. SPF is available in levels from 2 to 60. Does highest mean the best protection? Not necessarily. An SPF of 50 only provides 1% to 2% more protection than an SPF 30. | |
UVA vs. UVB Protection | |
The label of the sunscreen will indicate whether it has UVA or UVB protection. Choose a product that states, "UVA/UVB," protection or has "broad spectrum" protectant.
| |
Waterproof or Water Resistant | |
If you are looking for a sunscreen to use while in the water, choose a sunscreen that is "waterproof" or "water resistant." "Waterproof" sunscreen should provide protection in the water for 80 minutes, while "water resistant" provides only 40 minutes of protection. | |
OMNI 4® is America's Best Liquid Vitamin!Why, you say?Omnitrition® uses a specially patented micellization process that enables vitamins and minerals to become water-soluble so your body absorbs what it needs and flushes the rest.
