What To Say To Your Kids About Drugs!!!

   
We all hope that our children understand when they are told drugs can be harmful. But do they really understand what drugs can mean to them personally and that they can destroy their dreams and hopes?

   
A little book of instructions comes with each new cell phone or other electronic equipment.

    However, we never received an instruction book to know how our liver works and what can cause it to crash. A zillion times more complex than a satellite space station, the liver is the body's internal power plant, converter, engine, and refinery performing thousands of complex functions non-stop 24/7 keeping us alive, alert and healthy. Researchers have just scratched the surface in understanding the remarkable complexities of this miraculous organ.

    The heart is a pump; the lungs are bellows; the brain is a computer... and they all depend on the liver to keep them going. Without your liver... there is no "you". 

    "Give Your Liver a Break", a new 10 minute DVD will help you and your kids understand why and how to take care of this internal miracle worker.

    Call HFI at 1-800-891-0707 to order your copy today. It could save your life and help your kids stay healthy.
