October: A Season for Awareness
- Oct 1, 2013

It's October! What a great time of year. The Fall season has definitely arrived; leaves are falling, sweaters are everywhere, and pumpkin-spiced everything is all around.
October also brings us a season of awareness. For example, we are very aware that icky cold and flu season is just around the corner! Washing your hands and avoiding those who have already caught the bug can definitely help, but sometimes you just can't avoid it.
This October, our Health Buzz will focus on using nutrition to navigate cold and flu season, supporting your respiratory system and sinuses, and maintaining a healthy (and germ-free!) home environment.
October is also Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we won't miss the opportunity to discuss this very important subject as well.
Are there any seasonal awareness topics you are interested in talking about? Do you have a story to share with us? Leave me a comment!
In Health and Happiness,
