Quick tip of the day

Online translation is more powerful than ever. Just type what you want in one language and Google instantly translates it into another language for free.

But how do you know if the Google translation is really what you meant to say, especially for important notes? It's not smart to rely on Google Translate without taking one extra step:

  • After you translate what you wanted to say into another language, save the text. Open a new tab in your browser, paste the text and translate the foreign language text back into English. You might need to change a few words to get the translation just right.

🔍 Speaking of the tech giant, Google knows what you type, watch and say — unless you take these steps.

Two of these a day give me tons of energy

I do my best to stay healthy. I work out every day, eat well … but I have a few secrets, too. For a healthy heart and more energy, I love SuperBeets.

SuperBeets Heart Chews give you all the fabulous healthy heart benefits of eating beets, but without the hassle of juicing. They combine non-GMO beets with grapeseed extract, which is clinically shown to be twice as effective at supporting normal blood pressure as a healthy lifestyle alone. And better blood pressure means more energy — without the jittery caffeine or stimulants.

Do what I did and support your heart health with delicious SuperBeets chews!
