A Multivitamin for Me? Really? YES!

A multivitamin? Who needs that? Likely most of us in New Roads.

Does this scenario sound familiar...?

"Sam has to be picked up at 4 and to practice by 4:15. Mark has to be picked up at 3:45 and dropped at the New Roads pool at 4. Sam is done at 5:30 and Mark is done at 5. What about dinner before the meeting at 7:30 and Sam has to be at the game at 8. I'll just grab something for us to eat in the car." … Whew!

Our lives are packed with so much to do that life In New Roads tends to be busy indeed! We are running and multi-tasking like crazy. If we have a second to consider the food we are feeding ourselves with, let alone our family members, we may feel a bit guilty, knowing that we should eat more wisely.
