ProRehab and the University Of Evansville Aces Men?s Soccer Team teamed up to address childhood health and wellness at the local level with the HEALTHY BODIES, HEALTHY MINDS program. The successful program ran from February 1, 2012 to April 15, 2012 and helped 489 students in the Evansville area complete goals in eating healthier foods, exercising, and reading.
The HEALTHY BODIES, HEALTHY MINDS program is a by-product of the successful reading program, Score With The Aces, which is also the result of a collaborative effort between ProRehab and the University of Evansville. The HEALTHY BODIES, HEALTHY MINDS program fits into school wellness programming and creates a user-friendly approach for teaching healthy lifestyle strategies to elementary school students.
During the three-month-long program, students were rewarded for reaching daily goals that related to diet, exercise, and reading. Meeting specific goals offered unique prizes: members of the Aces visited the classroom to discuss good lifestyle habits; students received HEALTHY BODIES, HEALTHY MINDS t-shirts; and students were able to participate in healthy lifestyle activities with Aces players and staff at their respective schools.
?The first HEALTHY BODIES, HEALTHY MINDS program was met with resounding success!? states Andrea Baumann, ProRehab Physical Therapist and co-owner. ?Students were energized by reaching goals and will now be able to make healthier decisions in the future. We hope to make this an annual event and include even more students next year to continue to spread wellness throughout Evansville and beyond.?

While most vending machine companies rent out their machines and leave their route operators to fend for themselves, Naturals2Go is a healthy vending machine company that proudly provides its machine owners and operators with ample tools for running a successful vending business, long term. As proof, Naturals2Go recently attended the Natural Products Expo West in search of the best healthy products that their route operators? can then place in their own vending machines.
The Natural Products Expo West in Anaheim, California is a tradeshow that features more than 2,000 natural product vendors and focuses largely on healthy food products. Although 65,000 people are in attendance, it is not open to the public ? rather, only official business representatives can attend.
Because of this limitation, Sandy Briggs, the Customer Service Manager for Naturals2Go, attended the expo as a proxy for the many independent route operators that could not attend on their own and she believes it?s an effort that will add to the arsenal.
?At Naturals2Go, we strive to help our route owners expand the vendible products they can offer through their machines,? says Sandy about her company?s communal mission. ?This is an invaluable service as we are able to really help route owners grow their business through growing their product offering; which is often something they are not able to dedicate their own efforts to.?
Upon returning from the expo, Naturals2Go prospects the many products and then connects their vending route owners with the various vendors to ultimately place the healthy food products in their independently placed machines. While it seems simple enough, Sandy and her team at Naturals2Gothis are proud to provide this service because it allows their independent route owners access to the most popular national brands, even as a start-up operator.
About Naturals2Go
Naturals2GO is dedicated to helping you achieve financial success as a vending machine business operator. With over 20 years of experience in the industry, they have the tools and the know-how to assist you. Their dedicated customer support team will educate you in all aspects of managing your own vending machine business, coaching you from start-up to success. They are there to make your vending business opportunity an enjoyable and prosperous experience.

Schools have the responsibility of keeping our children safe during the school day and parents have the right to be a partner in that effort. Parent Action for Healthy Kids has released these 10 important questions for parents to ask the principal to ensure a bully-free school.
1. Can parents view a copy of the district?s Anti-Bullying Policy?
Note: A critical section in an anti-bullying policy would cover the procedure for reporting bullying and how the report is investigated by the school.
2. Has the school completed a staff and student survey to assess the level of bullying and other aggressive behavior?
3. Does the school have a team identified to review the survey results and to look at evidence-based solutions that will be sustained long-term?
4. Who is on the team, and does it include a broad representation of parents?
5. Has all staff received training on bullying prevention? This includes every adult who interacts with the children (custodians, bus drivers, secretaries, food service, etc.)
6. Is the training focused on giving adults the skills necessary to intervene effectively with aggression and create a positive environment?
7. Has a behavioral chart (often called a rubric) been developed that lists the consequences earned for choosing aggressive or bullying behavior?
8. What formal instruction are the children receiving on how to behave? In other words, where, and how, is social-emotional skill development being taught? Note: This would generally occur through a comprehensive health education class using curricula such as the Michigan Model for Health

True Healthy Products, a nutritional and supplement company with a focus on obtaining health and fitness goals through natural supplementation and nutritional balance is now offering several new vitamins for 2012. Vitamins A, B and C are available for supplementation in a variety of ways from all natural and in some cases, organic sources.
Vitamin A, commonly used for vision, bone growth, reproduction and to boost the immune system, is available from the company in their wholefood multivitamin, ?9 a Day Plus,? as well as in the ?Whole 9? fruits and vegetables meal replacement shake, which can be viewed here: Delicious Whole Food Shake.
Vitamin B, an essential vitamin for the human body, is used for many things. In general it is used for hormone production, energy production, helps maintain nervous system and lowers cholesterol and triglycerides. It can now be found in the 9 A Day Plus natural multivitamin and the Whole 9 Meal Replacement Shake as well as in the company?s all natural energy booster, Pure Energy. The Pure Energy contains 500% of the recommended daily value of B12. B12 is very easily depleted by the body, and helps to regulate stress levels. According to True Healthy Products? formulator, Andrew Wood regarding the Pure Energy, it is made to wake you up, can be used as an all natural energy supplement, but should not ?give you jitters? like other energy supplements can.
Vitamin C oftentimes is used as a supplement that helps to build collagen, prevent cancer and heart disease, helps to detox the body, supports good bacteria but helps to kill bad bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites, maintains healthy arteries and destroys free radicals, among many other benefits. It can be found in the 9 a Day Plus Wholefood Multivitamin and the Whole 9 Fruits and Vegetables Meal Replacement Shake but is newly available as a stand alone supplement, ?100% Organic Vitamin C,? made from acerola cherry, Natural Vitamin C.
The company typically highlights better health and achieving fitness goals through natural supplements and nutritional balance, and cites reasons from several sources for natural supplementation over synthetics all throughout their website.
