As is most often the case, ‘necessity is the mother of invention’. I had reached a point in my life when I realised I needed to regain control of my health. I was stressed, I was unfit and I had developed asthma. I was a typical ‘victim’ of our modern stressful lifestyles here in the West.
I realised that many of my friends were beginning to feel the same. I began to exercise and eat more sensibly but it was clear that the ‘rot had set in’ and that I required more help than I first thought! I knew I couldn't change my lifestyle overnight! I had a job, a family and sometimes I just needed to unwind! I tried a few supplements but really didn’t know quite what I was looking for! It was all a little confusing!
It was then that Julie Silver, nutritional advisor to many corporations on employee health and wellbeing, talked me through the importance of raw, food-sourced nutrition. She began by making me focus on the lifestyle health areas I wanted to improve. The ones I could feel and understand. She prepared a series of formulations that answered my requirements and I immediately felt that I had taken back control of my health. First was my flagging energy levels, then we tackled my breathing. I felt empowered. Revitalised! We only used raw, food-sourced ingredients so the nutrients each delivered were quickly absorbed by my body, optimising the benefits while they were in my system.
The BetterYou™ range of 100% natural nutritional products was born that Spring and since then we have only ever used ingredients from a natural and easily absorbable source.
