AddieUP brand Attention Support Dietary Supplement is now available online. AddieUP is a proprietary formulated supplement that assists primarily with attention support. The combination of three natural stimulants synergistically combined with nootropics, vitamins, and antioxidants has been the key to the effectiveness of AddieUPs formulation. Nootropics are substances known to provide calming and protective qualities for the brain. Also called cognitive or memory enhancers, nootropics have garnered attention from the media and health care providers in recent years.
The creator of AddieUP, Dr. Michael Baker, of Louisville, KY, says, AddieUP is a safe and natural supplement for attention and focus support. Like many, I have experienced problems and side effects with prescription medications for Attention Deficit. My approach to health care has always favored natural alternatives to help with various health issues. This product is a natural, safe, and effective supplement for those with focus and attention issues. Surprisingly AddieUP customers also report that it has been a better choice for them then energy shots and drinks because it provides a less expensive and longer lasting lift without an end of day crash. As a result, we are also helping students and adults have an edge in their lives naturally.”
ADD and ADHD, its diagnosis and treatment, have been considered controversial since the 1970s. Currently the shortage of amphetamines, the key ingredient used to treat ADD/ADHD, has created a crisis for patients, doctors, pharmacists in the U.S., for nearly a year and has no end in sight. Because expensive and side effect laden prescription drugs are increasingly more difficult to obtain, Dr. Baker feels the time is right for a natural alternative.
About AddieUP AddieUP is a dietary supplement which provides increased energy, focus, concentration, and attention support. The product contains no sugar, salt, carbohydrates, drugs or antihistamines and is natural and non-habit forming.

His national agency is committed through effective services, education, training, and advocacy to make a difference in the lives of fathers, mothers, children and communities.
Celebrating Fathers Day by sharing Little Girl with friends and supporters of AZFFC was only natural for the former DJ and music enthusiast. Maybe E and some of my friends in the business can collaborate and do a special concert out here, says Rodriguez. Weve got a major conference here in February and it would be great to pull in some sponsors to make that event special, too.
When I spoke with James and invited AZFFC to participate in the Fathers Day promotion the conversation went from discussing the lyrical content of the song to how music can impact peoples lives.????The body of the AZFFC membership is culturally diverse and its exciting to know that my song will be introduced to so many different types of celebrations.????Im looking forward to being to be part of the convention in Tucson next February. Ive spent a lot of time in Phoenix, but have never been to Tucson. Growing up in Cleveland I always heard about Tucson because the Cleveland Indians would have spring training out there, and Ive always wanted to visit that city.

Health and wellness industry leader MonaVie is making history again as it launches the next generation of the company called MonaVie 2.0. The latest phase of the companys long-term strategy was announced at a meeting for more than 3,000 MonaVie distributors in Dallas, Texas on January 13-14.

A new, universal business training solution to guide distributor success called MVP (MonaVie Values People) was also launched and will be the centerpiece of MonaVies continued global expansion.

We invite everyone to join with us, as we position ourselves to make history once again during 2012, he said.
MonaVie Nutritional Chemistry Providing Personalized Nutritional Support through MonaVie Elements
Todays consumers are looking for ways to personalize everything they buy, says MonaVie Chief Marketing Officer Jeff Cohen, and theres no more important area to offer customizable options than with products that provide optimal nutritional support. Thats the idea behind MonaVies revolutionary new product platform called MonaVie Nutritional Chemistry.
According to Cohen, MonaVie Nutritional Chemistry will make it easy for consumers to address their unique nutritional needs. Through its new proprietary online nutritional assessment tool, known as Health Match, MonaVie helps individuals identify specific needs in three easy steps and then delivers personalized product recommendations.
In tandem with the introduction of MonaVie Nutritional Chemistry comes the launch of MonaVie Elements, a product line that facilitates customized nutrition. Elements come in deliciously powerful powders which are delivered in convenient, easy-to-use packets that are formulated to provide essential health benefits supporting a multitude of age/gender specific needs. Elements may be added to 8 oz. of water or 2 oz. to one of MonaVies health juices or to a serving of a MonaVie RVL? shake.
These new Elements are produced using the latest technology and scientific research that boosts the bioavailability of each products vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Cohen says that this is called the MonaVie BioEssence promise.
MonaVie is introducing the following five Elements with the launch of Nutritional Chemistry, and plans to launch additional Elements in the near future.
????Mens Vitamins & Minerals
Featuring 24 essential vitamins and minerals (all at efficacious levels), MonaVie MN is a total body health Element that increases performance and vitality.

????Childrens Vitamins & Minerals

Designed especially to meet the growing needs of kids, this deliciously fun formula provides the essential nutrients needed to strengthen the immune system, develop healthy bones and teeth, and correct nutritional deficiencies.
????Brain Health
This delicious nutritional Element called MonaVie BRsupports brain health by promoting focus and alertness. Featuring L-theanine and natural caffeine to support cognitive performance and B vitamins to maintain healthy brain function, MonaVie BR is a powerful supplement that supports optimal brain function.
????Glucose Support
MonaVie GL is a unique nutritional Element that promotes glucose metabolism to help maintain healthy blood sugar levels. A delicious and efficacious supplement, MonaVie GL features banaba leaf and green coffee bean extracts, as well as chromium. Known for their ability to promote healthy glucose levels, these powerful ingredients help the body naturally accept and convert glucose more efficiently.
All of these new Elements will be delivered in an attractive, self-dispensing box, providing easy access to an individuals daily nutritional needs. Initially, these MonaVie Elements will be available in the U.S., Puerto Rico and Canada. They will roll out to other international markets throughout 2012.
The new powdered Elements are competitively priced and retails as follows: the Mens, Womens and Childrens Vitamin & Mineral Elements retail for $ 59 UD for a box of 28 packets or $ 119 USD for two boxes of 56 packets. MonaVie Autoship distributors are eligible to purchase at a wholesale price of $ 56 USD for one box of 28 packets or $ 112 USD for two boxes with 56 packets.
The Brain Health and Glucose Support Elements retail for $ 29 USD for a box of 14 packets or $ 65 USD for two boxes with 28 packets. MonaVie Autoship distributors are eligible to purchase at a wholesale price of $ 29 USD for one box of 14 packets or $ 65 USD for two boxes with 28 packets.
TRIPLE YOUR HEALTH BENEFITS WITH MONAVIE MX
Another important part of the MonaVie 2.0 launch is the introduction of MonaVie MX. A new blend of MonaVies flagship health juice products, this 3-in-1 juice cocktail combines the health benefits of MonaVie Essential?, MonaVie Active? and MonaVie (M)mn? into one powerful, mouthwatering formula. Bursting with fruit flavonoids, this health and wellness drink offers a broader array of antioxidants than ever before with 19 fruits and 11 vegetables.
Formulated with MonaVie BioEssence for greater bioavailability and A?aVie, the purest, most potent form of a?ai available, this new juice blend also features glucosamine to increase joint mobility and flexibility, and Wellmune?, which has been clinically shown to strengthen the bodys immune defenses.
Cohen recommends that consumers use MX as a powerful daily nutritional to which MonaVie Elements are added to strengthen and customize the specific nutritional support each individual may need.
MX retails for $ 44 USD for one bottle, $ 79 USD for two bottles or $ 149 USD for a case of four. MonaVie Autoship distributors are eligible to purchase a monthly supply at a wholesale price of $ 39 USD for a bottle, $ 75 USD for 2 bottles or $ 149 USD for a case of four.
NEW UNIVERSAL TRAINING SYSTEM MVP TO UNIFY AND SUPPORT GLOBAL DISTRIBUTOR NETWORK
Another integral part of MonaVies transformation into MonaVie 2.0 is the launch of a new, universal training and education system to guide distributor success, known as MVP (MonaVie Values People).
Because MonaVie truly values people and wants to see them live up to their potential, it is committed to making sure that all of its distributors are trained and educated to maximize their chances for success. The beauty of MVP, says Cohen, is that it is a universal, all-in-one system created for distributors and designed by the most successful distributors in the direct sales industry today.
The program features a series of instructional brochures, booklet, CDs and DVDs that provide step-by-step directions on how to start a successful MonaVie business. In addition to the instructional materials, which will be available in both hard copy and online versions, MVP offers access to programs and other tools which are designed

Joining with other major Internet sites, such as Wikipedia, Reddit, Boing Boing, and WordPress, CanadaDrugs.com and other members of the Canadian International Pharmacy Association on January 18th will participate in the Internet Blackout movement to protest Congress proposed anti-piracy legislation.
Canada Drugs wants to raise awareness amongst its online customers on the threat that The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and its Senate counterpart, the Protect IP Act (PIPA) pose to their freedom of choice. Over a million Americans who currently turn to licensed, legitimate online Canadian and International Pharmacies as an affordable alternative for their prescription drug purchases could see their choice limited or taken away by the vague and overly broad language that these acts are written in. They are designed to protect the interests of U.S. businesses and fight counterfeiting, but closer examination of the bills makes it clear that they reach too broadly and could seriously affect how tens of millions of Americans access and use the internet, as well as force the shutdown of legitimate websites such as CanadaDrugs.com and other CIPA members.
On January 18th, Canada Drugs homepage will display a splash banner that informs customers of the threat SOPA/PIPA pose to Americans ability to order safe, affordable prescription medications from Canadian pharmacies. SOPA/PIPA also raise fears of Internet Blacklists, increased censorship and the potential to stop innovation and dynamism of the Internet due to over regulation and government interference.
Of particular concern to CanadaDrugs.com and its customers is the vague and broadly written language that could threaten licensed, certified CIPA.com and PharmacyChecker.com websites with forced shutdown. Taking away the only source of safe, affordable medication for over a million American seniors, and others that use Canadian pharmacies. Canada Drugs also will alert its customers that SOPA inappropriately groups together legitimate pharmacy websites that sell safe brand name medication and require a prescription from each patients personal physician, with dangerous rogue pharmacies that dont adhere to CIPA and Pharmacy Checker guidelines on prescriptions and product safety.
These bills would cut off access to the legitimate Canadian pharmacies that hundreds of thousands of Americans rely on each year to access their needed medicines at an affordable price, said Brock Gunter-Smith, Chief Business Development Officer for Canada Drugs. If Congress makes it harder for their citizens to buy from pharmacies like Canada Drugs that adhere to safety guidelines, require prescriptions, and sell brand name and generic products, than in their search for affordable prescription drugs they will be more, not less likely to purchase from dangerous foreign rogues.
After the January 18th Internet Blackout, Canada Drugs and other CIPA members will continue to advocate along with senior citizens groups such as RxRights.com, to press for sensible solutions that allow Americans freedom of choice in purchasing safe, affordable prescription medication from reputable online sources.
It took decades of trend research to figure this one out, but it couldn’t have been more apparent all along. A good night’s sleep is credited for maintaining a healthy weight (and not solely because you have energy to exercise), avoiding disease, looking good, and feeling happy. To borrow a figure of speech from the world of fashion: Sleep is the “new black.”
But, for folks who suffer from Obstructive Sleep Apnea – or share a bed with someone who does – a good night’s sleep is something they think they can only dream about. What they probably don’t know is that their dentist might be able to help them realize their dream. Specially-trained dentists can make a custom-fitted oral appliance, not unlike a sports mouth-guard, for the apneic patient to wear at night. This appliance has been effective for some patients who cannot tolerate their CPAP (continuous positive air pressure) device, or who travel frequently and need a portable device.
“American society has never been so bombarded by editorial and advertising content related to quality sleep, and the reason is that Americans are sleep-deprived and desperate for solutions,” says Laurence Barsh, DMD, founder of Snoring Isn’t Sexy and Quietsleep. “Dentistry has stepped up to help patients who snore and have sleep apnea, by expanding the dental practice to include oral appliance therapy by well-qualified dentists,” says Barsh.
About Dr. Barsh
Dr. Barsh has been involved with dental sleep medicine since the early 1990s. He has lectured to the students at Harvard School of Dental Medicine and at dental meetings in the United States and abroad on dentistry’s role in the recognition and management of sleep breathing disorders and on oral appliance therapy. Dr. Barsh has published numerous articles in both trade and scientific journals on dental sleep medicine and is currently on the Editorial Board of the journal Sleep and Breathing. During his career, Dr. Barsh was Assistant Clinical Professor of Operative Dentistry and Assistant Clinical Professor of Oral Diagnosis and Radiology at Harvard School of Dental Medicine, published numerous scientific articles and lectured in the United States and abroad on various subjects in dentistry and authored a text entitled Dental Treatment Planning for the Adult Patient.
About Snoring Isn’t Sexy, LLC
Snoring Isn’t Sexy, LLC was founded in 2008 by Laurence I. Barsh, DMD, a dentist who has been involved with sleep medicine since 1992 and who now devotes full time to educating the public about dentistry’s role and responsibility in the recognition and management of snoring and sleep apnea. Dr. Barsh and the dentists associated with Snoring Isn’t Sexy, LLC feel strongly that management of sleep-breathing disorders is a shared responsibility of both the medical and dental professions.
Snoring Isn’t Sexy, LLC consists of independently owned and operated affiliated offices. Visit SnoringIsntSexy.com for a directory of all participating dentists.

As 2011 came to a close, the health care industry remained one of the most robust sources of jobs in the U.S., adding 315,000 over the past twelve months. Twenty-three thousand alone were added in December. The U.S. unemployment rate also continued its downward trend, ending December at 8.5 percent nationally. Meanwhile, outplacement research firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas reported that just under 42,000 planned job cuts were announced in December — the lowest monthly total since June.
????”Our team saw relatively few job cuts in health care and pharmaceuticals in December,” said John Burkhardt, Managing Director of MedZilla.com, the internet’s most established source for healthcare, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology employment information. “In December 2010, the same thing happened — probably because it looks bad for a company to announce firings around the holidays.” In fact, other than a few small workforce reductions, CG&C reported only two major layoff announcements. The first came from Siemens, who plans to cut 1,600 jobs in its health care division (bloomberg.com, 12/21/11); the other was a 225-person cut made by Tucson, Ariz.-based Carondelet Health Network (azstarnet.com, 12/13/11).
????Meanwhile, several new job initiatives made the news in December. Many were relatively small — such as the 25 in Duluth, MN. (wdio.com, 12/14/11) — but three major announcements increased optimism among job-seekers that more like it might someday be coming to their towns. They include 600 openings at OptumRx’s facility in Kansas (marketwatch.com, 12/21/11), 400 at WVU Healthcare in West Virginia (wboy.com, 12/16/11), and 250 in Ohio from a combination of Philips Healthcare (cleveland.com, 12/19/11) and CareSource (areadevelopment.com, 12/13/11).
????Companies seeking qualified candidates were most active last month in Illinois, according to MedZilla statistics, increasing their search activities by 11 percent. California companies were up seven percent, North Carolina by 5.7, and three other states by about 1.5. The biggest slowdowns were in New Jersey — down 5.2 percent — and both Massachusetts and Florida — down 2.4 percent apiece. Most increases came in management (8.8 percent). However, as per usual, changes in the number of job postings did not correspond with candidate searches — with only two exceptions (both swinging less than two percent in either direction), companies did not significantly increase or decrease their job postings in December. Job searches by candidates themselves also remained flat, except in California and New Jersey, where job seekers backed off their search activities by between one and 1.5 percent.
????”Because December is a holiday month, people who already have jobs are unlikely to try and make a change,” said Del Johnston, MedZilla’s Manager of Client Relations. “The holiday season can be pretty stressful even without a job change. As for people without jobs, many fear that the people who can hire them won’t be in the office and their resumes will get stuck at the bottom of the stack when managers get back from vacation.” Additionally, job seekers may fall prey to new rules that were not in place when their resumes were sent in. For example, Pennsylvania healthcare provider Geisinger has become one of a growing number of companies to declare they will not hire smokers, testing potential candidates for nicotine as well as the standard slate of illegal substances (wjactv.com, 12/28/11). “The new year may not be the best time to make a resolution,” said Johnston, citing a MeYou Health report stating that 85 percent of New Year’s Resolutions fail (njuice.com, 12/28/11), “but if you’ve been planning to quit smoking and you happen to be in the job market, sooner is better than later.
????Another interesting bit of news released in December indicated that the future for nurses may actually be better than that of doctors, at least when it comes to compensation. According to Forbes columnist Merrill Matthews (forbes.com, 12/21/11), nursing salaries rose by six percent from 2009 to 2010 (up to about $ 67,000), while nurse practitioners and physician assistants made between $ 90,000 and $ 105,000 in 2010. Matthews then revealed that most family physicians only made between $ 100,000 and $ 175,000 that year despite their additional schooling, authority, and possible student loans.
????”Generally when people think ‘get a job in health care’, they think ‘I’ll have to go to school and become a doctor’,” Burkhardt said. “However, there are many jobs available in health care, from nursing to occupational therapy to pharmacist — someone’s got to work at the drugstores on every corner — and job seekers looking to make a change in the new year should remember that it doesn’t take an M.D. to make a good living in the field.”
Established in mid-1994, MedZilla is the original and leading web site to serve career and hiring needs for professionals and employers in biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, medicine, science and healthcare. The MedZilla jobs database contains about 7,500 open positions. The resume database currently contains over 295,000 resumes with 26,500 less than three months old. These resources have been characterized as the largest, most comprehensive databases of their kind on the web in the industries served.
