**Required Daily Values (for life at this pace)

This morning I drank a big cup of coffee to wake up.

I took a 5HTP to lift my mood.

I took a multivitamin to meet my nutritional needs.

I took three Super Lysine+ to boost my immune system and prevent cold sores (and yes it really works).

Then I drank a Brain Toniq to increase my focus.

It strikes me occasionally that my life moves at an unnatural pace. I know I'm not alone here.

Sometimes though, I wish that instead:

1. When I am tired I could stay in bed.
2. When I'm sad I had time to sit with it.
3. When I'm hungry I could stop and have a healthy meal.
4. When I'm sick I could stay home.
5. When I can't focus I could stop what I'm doing.

Each of these products when examined individually make me think - WOW! I'm so glad that there is something out there that can get me over the hump. But this morning, when I realized how many different things I was putting in my body to cope with my day - well...

It's a little distressing.
