A New Life Free From Alcohol - A Story of Recovery

"What felt like such weakness was really my greatest moment of strength," says Alex Greer about recognizing his addiction to alcohol. Alex is a successful entrepreneur and owner of Funky Pickle Productions in the Atlantic City area. Alex had friends, a good family, a nice place to live, and a business and steady income; he was thriving and successful by most measures. Yet, alcohol had become a problem in his life. When he finally admitted it to himself and the people who loved him, he found the help he needed. Today, he is living a better, happier, and healthier life, free from alcohol. As he recovered, he created Funky Pickle Productions, which hosts fun and exciting philanthropic pickleball events. I met him at a fundraising event that provides treatment assistance for people with addiction. He spoke publicly for the first time about his problems with alcohol and how he found the courage to overcome this addiction. His willingness to share his journey made such an impact on me that I invited him to be a guest on my podcast. In this powerful episode, he shares an important message - it can happen to any one of us, yet recovery is possible. He is living proof, and this is his story.

Are Your Vitamins Really Working? Here’s What You Need To Know

Billions of dollars are spent annually on vitamins, supplements, and weight-loss products. So, are yours really working? Vitamins and nutrients are essential for the body to function correctly. While a healthy diet is the best way to get all the necessary vitamins and minerals, it is not always possible. Supplements can help fill the nutritional gaps. However, it is vital to read the label. Many products contain fillers and binders that can decrease the effectiveness of your supplements.
In some cases, only 10% of the vitamins are absorbed by your body. Health consultant Jane Santangelo discusses finding the right supplements and vitamins for your personal needs. She explains the importance of an effective delivery system and top-quality supplementation as part of a healthy lifestyle.
