phones, they can take a picture of your credit card, which gives them your name,

Cold Hard Facts
Cold winter air and dry indoor heat often lead to dry, itchy,
irritated skin. If dryness leads to cracking, splitting or
bleeding, there is an increased chance of infection. To combat
dry winter skin, switch to alcohol-free vegetable-based soaps.
Perfumed and deodorant soaps contain alcohol, which further
aggravates dry skin. Apply moisturizer such as body oil, lotion
or cream immediately after bathing or showering, while your skin
is still warm and moist. This helps to trap the water in the
skin before it evaporates, lessening dryness and itching. For
extremely dry skin areas, use Watkins Petro Carbo Salve
to protect skin from cracking. Watkins has a variety of products
to help keep skin and lips moist and smooth all winter,

This will shake you up! If you're a salt watcher,
here's some good news that you shouldn't just take with a grain of salt! A
new study reported at a meeting of the American Heart Association found that
people who consumed more calcium, magnesium and other minerals tended to have
lower blood pressure than those who ate less of these

minerals.
In this study, when calcium, magnesium and other minerals were readily
consumed, salt had much less impact on raising blood pressure than expected.
When intake of these minerals was low, salt intake drove blood pressure up. It
appears that high intake of certain minerals can help to counteract the
effects of salt on blood pressure. Calcium, magnesium and other minerals are
found in a variety of foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and
dairy products. Watkins Superfood Multiple (Super Multi) contains these
minerals and many more to help keep salt from "a-salting" you!
