A TOP NEW YEARS RESOLUTION FOR 2019
Health is always on the top of the list for New Year’s Resolutions. Health experts point out that most people do not drink enough water, which is critical for so many health issues. This year, make the New Year’s resolutions to drink more water. Commit to drinking cleaner, healthier, great-tasting water! It is easy, install the PUR Advanced Faucet Filtration System which is certified to reduce 99 percent of lead and over 70 other contaminants, more than any other brand.  It’s the superior solution for convenient, on demand filtered water, making it easy to fill up a reusable water bottle, make smoothies, wash fruits and vegetables and more. Plus, a year of PUR is more affordable than purchasing one month of a fancy gym membership. For more information, visit www.PUR.com

ANOTHER IMPORTANT RESOLUTION THAT CAN INSPIRE US IN THE NEW YEAR
It is about being good to the planet, which is why it is important for everyone to start the new year off right by recycling food and beverage cartons.  Whether it contains milk, juice, soup, or even wine, cartons. Food and beverage cartons can and should be recycled. Many of us do a great job recycling plastic bottles and cans, but I want to make sure you’re recycling your food and beverage cartons too! In addition to milk and juice cartons, now there are products like soup, waters, tomatoes, energy drinks, beans and even wine that come in carton packaging that can be recycled. Really, one easy goal anyone can start today is to RECYCLE. Everyone knows it is the right thing to do and it really is easy. Each day, the average American generates more than four pounds of trash. Let’s all strive to do better and we can start by recycling our cartons! Recycling cartons is as easy as 1,2 3. First, empty the container (no need to rinse). Put the caps back on, and if your juice box has a straw, just push it back into the carton so there’s no chance it blows away and ends up as litter. No need to crush the carton before putting it in your recycling cart, as cartons are best recycled in their original shape. That’s it. Once recycled, food and beverage cartons can be used to create new paper products, like tissues, paper towels and writing paper, as well as environmentally-friendly building materials like wall board and roof coverboard.

A RESOLUTION THAT MOST PEOPLE MIGHT NOT THINK OF FOR THE NEW YEAR
Personal hygiene is important and one recommendation is from LISTERINE, they are introducing a portable fresh breath option that can leave your whole mouth feeling as clean as brushing and rinsing at home, and there’s nothing else like it on the market! Tabs from Listerine are a game-changing new product that deliver fresh breath for up to four hours, on the go. They are simple to use, just chew for 10 seconds to transform from a solid to a liquid, swish for 30 seconds and swallow, and it’s totally safe! These are a great way to upgrade your wellness routine in the new year and ideal for any time you need a boost of fresh breath confidence like boarding a flight, meeting with your boss after lunch or before your first kiss. They’re available at many retail stores, under $3 for an 8-pack and $5 for a 16-pack. For more information, visit www.listerine.com
