Date: June 22, 2006 Folic Acid Fortification Linked to Lower Death Percentage The number of deaths from stroke in North America has dropped by five percent since the introduction of folic acid fortification, while figures in the non-fortifying UK have not changed. Mandatory fortification of certain food with folic acid was introduced in the US and Canada in 1998 with primary outcome designed to be a reduction of birth defects. The program has been successful in cutting the number of children born with neural tube defects by over 25 percent.

The process of building relationships can take on many forms, however. Let's take a moment to review some of the key areas which may help you build and maintain relationships within your organization.Your 30 Second Introduction Have you upgraded your 30 second introduction lately? If you haven't revised it in the past year chances are the impact may be stale. A new introduction can spark your own energy which will show when you introduce yourself. Consider the use of powerful action words such as create, design, compose, organize, generate, solve, produce, and supply. Deliver it in front of a mirror and see what others see. What do you have to give? We often think of what we want to get from relationships. Flip this over and consider what you are willing to give to your downline. Do you have information that your downline can use? Keep in mind that building relationships is a two way street, so to speak, that begins with you. Approaching these relationships in a giving, proactive mode is an excellent beginning. Follow up, Follow up The simple act of following up with your customers or business builders will make you stand out with them. Remember it is extremely important to create a contact information list or sheet in order to implement this step. You may start to see growth as you demonstrate an interest in relationship building with your downline members and additional growth as they in turn start to do the same. You might want to think of building relationships the same way as you would grow a garden. In order for the seeds to grow, they need water, Bloomin Minerals™, sunlight and of course time, and for relationships to continue to grow, you need to provide opportunities for your downline to get to know you better.
