Editor's Letter
Sensuality and Wisdom
Don’t you just love this issues’ cover? I find owls sensually delightful and the idea of their wisdom intriguing. You may wonder what this has to do with health? Be wise in your lifestyle decisions, especially those that lead to sensual gratification. You know what I mean!
Everything in moderation. And that includes supplements. In this issue, nutritionist Ian Craig writes on taking care to balance the intake of our omega’s and Dr Brom gives advice on our supplement needs during all our ages and stages. But don’t let me give it all away here – read your magazine!
