Good morning friends it is with a heavy heart that I am sending this post today, as of July 24,2019 our doors will be close for business. Paul, Marcia and myself have been in operation for over 13 years at Diabetic Connection with our name Health Connection. We will be closing due to a illness in our family and my time has to be focus on my family member. I lost my mother a few weeks ago and now have to focus on my father. I believe we have been on a journey that has been a great one. This has been one of my greatest accomplishments in this present life. I have met some of the greatest people that God has made. People who have and will remain in my heart for every. Please pray with me that the Lord will send someone to take the next journey of health for our community. I thank you all for your manys of support and may God bless and keep you. We may be closing but remember your health is your wealth.

The problem is, the amount of potassium in supplement pills is limited, for safety reasons, to just 99 mg; Studies demonstrating potassium benefits use 1000 to 2000 mg per day. Instead of swallowing numerous pills, consider that a banana delivers around 450 mg; fresh-squeezed orange juice around 475 mg; an avocado offers a lower carb alternative yielding 430 mg.check with your doctor first if you have impaired kidney function or are taking a medication that can cause you to retain potassium.

Potassium: When it comes to blood pressure, it’s not about how much sodium you consume; rather it’s your sodium to potassium ratio.Most people get too much sodium from processed foods and not enough potassium from fresh fruits and vegetables. Potassium supplementation has been shown to significantly lower blood pressure. Always try foods first over added supplements.

Magnesium:
Magnesium is vital to about 300 or more of your body functions, and most of us are short on this incredible nutrient. Magnesium helps to create ATP, which are the energy molecules in your body, it helps to make RNA and DNA, the heart of each of your cells, regulates your heart beat, helps you sleep and relax, creates healthy bones, lowers your blood pressure and keeps you regular. Since about 80% of the population is in need of more magnesium and if you are an athlete, drink alcohol, take blood pressure medicine, need help maintaining your blood sugar, you need even more.

2: tip for stress relief
Quiet Time
If you are prone to struggling with worry and anxiety one of the best ways to find peace is through a devotional or quiet time. These can be done at any time of the day, and any where you are. Having a quiet time has been practiced for thousands of years, and it helps improve well being and connection with other people. If you want proof? A study was done on the practice of “mindfulness”, and it scientifically proved that it helped reduce stress and anxiety in many people. Mental health plays a huge role in the overall health of your body. It affects your cognitive and your abilities to focus and pay attention, it can affect your eating habits, your quality of sleep and your weight. Try adding a quiet time to your daily routine for just 10-15 minutes a day.
