Biotin helps my body convert carbs into the usable energy source of glucose.<\/p>\n<p>Biotin is easily depleted by antibiotic use, stress and digestive ailments.\u00a0 Recently when I had to take a very strong antibiotic for a post-surgical wound infection, I craved sweets badly.\u00a0 Biotin helps my body to use the carbs I eat more efficiently and therefore deters it from wanting more. I eat cooked eggs, nuts, beans and cauliflower to load up on this important nutrient.<\/p>\n<h4>A healthy diet.<\/h4>\n<p>A good diet for you might not be the same diet that is good for your family members or friends.<\/p>\n<p>I have struggled with chronic anemia most of my life, until recently.\u00a0 My husband learned how to cook a delicious recipe:\u00a0 liver and onions with peppers and mushrooms and bacon.\u00a0 I have been eating this every other day and now there is no evidence of anemia in my bloodwork.\u00a0 He does not need to eat liver and onions to maintain the iron in his body.\u00a0 <strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>***<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My last blood results were great!\u00a0 Everything was excellent, even my iron stores and iron levels for the first time that I can remember.\u00a0 I was happy to get these results, but not surprised.\u00a0 I have been working very hard to cause these test results.\u00a0 I strive to give my body a healthy bank account balance every day.<\/p>\n<p>Please try to maintain a healthy bank account for your body also, and for your children.\u00a0 A healthy child is much more likely to be a healthy and productive adult! If you or your child craves sweets, make sure you and your child get enough of the B vitamins.<\/p>\n<p>Maintain a healthy bank account for your body and soar like an eagle over life&#8217;s storms!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Let the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/us\/dictionary\/english\/encouraging\" slimstat=\"5\">encouraging words<\/a>\u00a0in these\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/us\/dictionary\/english\/river\" slimstat=\"5\">near\u00a0a\u00a0river<\/a>\u00a0posts help you<\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">soar like an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/us\/dictionary\/english\/eagle\" slimstat=\"5\">eagle<\/a>\u00a0above life\u2019s storms.<\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bobbiejrae.com\/nearariver\/replace-negativity-improve-health-near-river-bj-rae-eagle-encouraging-words\/\">Negativity affects your physical health, too&#8230;<\/a><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bobbiejrae.com\/nearariver\/category\/articles\/parenting-positive-near-river\/page\/3\/\">Looking for positive parenting tips?<\/a><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bobbiejrae.com\/nearariver\/having-a-bad-day-near-river-bj-rae-eagle-encouraging-words\/\">Having another bad day?<\/a><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Want a hug?<\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">If you enjoyed this post, remember that BJ writes\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dictionary.com\/browse\/children\" data-slimstat=\"5\">children\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dictionary.com\/browse\/book\" data-slimstat=\"5\">books<\/a>.<\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Her\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/us\/dictionary\/english\/encouraging\" slimstat=\"5\">encouraging<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dictionary.com\/browse\/children\" data-slimstat=\"5\">children\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/us\/dictionary\/english\/eagle\" slimstat=\"5\">eagle<\/a><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><u><a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/us\/dictionary\/english\/river\" slimstat=\"5\">near\u00a0a\u00a0river<\/a><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u>common core\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.collinsdictionary.com\/dictionary\/english\/reading-book\" data-slimstat=\"5\">reading book<\/a><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">is available on\u00a0Amazon.com\u00a0and\u00a0Barnesandnoble.com.<\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Buy BJ\u2019s\u00a0<u><a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/us\/dictionary\/english\/river\" slimstat=\"5\">near\u00a0a\u00a0river<\/a><\/u>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/us\/dictionary\/english\/encouraging\" slimstat=\"5\">encouraging\u00a0<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/us\/dictionary\/english\/eagle\" slimstat=\"5\">eagle\u00a0<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.collinsdictionary.com\/dictionary\/english\/reading-book\" data-slimstat=\"5\">reading book<\/a><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">for a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/us\/dictionary\/english\/child\" slimstat=\"5\">child<\/a>\u00a0you care about today!<\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Give your body a healthy bank account!
