Multi-Vitamins May Boost Baby’s Birth Weight
Supplementation with multi-vitamins during pregnancy may boost the birth weight of newborns, and should be considered for all expectant mothers in developing countries, according to a new major clinical trial.
“In light of the these benefits and the low cost of the supplements, multi-vitamins should be considered for all pregnant women,” wrote lead author Wafaie Fawzi in the New England Journal of Medicine.
This research is of particular importance since an estimated 20 million children worldwide are born with low birth weight, defined as less than 5.5 pounds, with 95 per cent of these in developing countries.
Low Birth Weight has been linked to higher risks of negative health outcomes, including neonatal and infant mortality, poor growth and cognitive development and higher risks of chronic diseases later in life, like diabetes and heart disease.
The new Study, by researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health and Muhimbili University College of Health Sciences in Dar Es Slaam, Tanzania involved 8,468 pregnant women.
Until Next Week,
Best Wishes for Ultimate Health and Majestic Dreams!!!

Ideas for Success
Here are some ideas to help set your business up for success.
First of all, try to stand out from the masses. Make the benefits of doing business with you so powerful, that your potential customers and recruits will see you clearly as the best choice for their sponsor. This is especially important if you want to successfully recruit people long-distance where you may not have the advantage of being able to speak to them face-to-face. You need to have a strong offer that really will convince them that YOU are the person they should do business with.
One thing you have probably experienced over and over, is receiving those
information packs in the mail from a company or distributor who may not think
that it is important to tell you, who they are and why they are sending this
information. They do not include a letter or note introducing themselves. They
just throw a bunch of company sales literature in an envelope, stick their name
and phone number on the back and expect that to do the trick. What a waste! With
no personal letter or note and no information as to why they should consider you
as a potential sponsor, how can they make an informed decision about whether
this is a great opportunity? What happens if you don't follow-up with a phone
call, letter, or e-mail (This happens 95% of the time)? Most likely they will
toss that expensive package of sales literature and keep looking for something
better!
Always send out a personalized letter with your information packages. Tell them your story. This will help make you more "real" to your prospects and customers and help them get to know you. People like to do business with people they know and like do everything you can to make an emotional contact with them.
A common difficulty, for people building businesses, is learning how to market their business effectively. Getting the company literature and becoming familiar with the products is just the beginning. You need to really spend some time crafting a dynamic marketing system that gets results. You could start by targeting one or two niche markets. Develop a marketing campaign designed to get their attention. What's a good niche? Here are some ideas to get you started - stay at home moms, downsized middle managers, women, men, practitioners, baby boomers, seniors. You may want to pick a niche that you are a part of. This may make it easier for you to figure out what that group's needs and wants are.
Think service! Put yourself in your prospect's shoes and think of all the ways you can help them succeed in their business and then do them! If you help your people succeed and reach their goals, then you will be successful too.
