Teaching With Fibromyalgia

Did you know that a high number of teachers are suffering from autoimmune diseases?  Think about it....stress....kids with runny noses......testing...stress.....you get the idea!  We are a glutton for punishment.  This is what one article on Education World reported:

This study was done just 14 years ago....I wonder what the follow up statistics would be now?

Because of my fibromyalgia and GERD, I go to the chiropractor as much as possible.  I typically go a lot in the summer and not so much in the fall because like most teachers/mothers I have to take care of everyone else.  Knowing this, my chiropractor gave me a couple of bottles of a superfood.  I didn't even know what a superfood was!  I have to be honest--I thought she was wanting me to go all "granola" and become a tree hugger and all, but when I looked at the label and saw all of the vitamins listed I figured it couldn't hurt.  That was 28 months ago.

I have now lost 4 dress sizes and about 20 pounds. I no longer have to take medication for my hiatul hernia! And, I have more energy to make it through the day.

I tried taking a picture of the label so that you could see what all is in it.  If you would like to read about the Zeal for Life vitamin drink, just go click on the pic below.  I am enjoying life so much that I decided to become a distributor in the hopes that I can help some of you out there that are struggling with the same issues.  If you have any questions or would like to try some samples, just email me and let me know!  Best of all, if Zeal doesn't work for you or you don't like it, you can send it back for a refund!

I have been drinking one of these each morning and/or maybe for lunch for all this time and I have to tell you that I have SO MUCH MORE energy.  I am feeling better and I am able to 'manage' all of my 'jobs'--wife, mom, daughter-in-law, blogger, curriculum developer, store owner, etc. and I keep trucking on.

And, the good thing is that it has guarana in it and I am starting to loose the flabby stuff in my middle.  =)  My chiropractor says that she has lost 20 pounds from just drinking her Zeal with no other life changes.  The drink has kept me from being sick as much.  I normally have chronic sinus infections and bronchitis.  I am doing SO MUCH BETTER!

The funniest thing to me is that my kids even recognize that Zeal Wellness Drink helps me! I am very open with my kids and tell them that math is not my favorite subject nor my favorite thing to teach.  The other day one of my kids asked me if I needed my vitamins to help me think through a word problem.  Out of the mouths of babes!

Want to try some?  Just let me know!
