My name is Tara and I am the Public Relations Specialist for
Swanson Health Products (SHP). I have been with SHP for just under a year, but I have been a firm believer in the health benefits of vitamins and supplements since my son was diagnosed with a metabolic disorder four years ago.
I know that the supplements he takes has helped not only his health, but also his mental and physical development. I am grateful that his doctors “showed me the light” and I am excited to share the benefits of vitamins, supplements, eating healthy and other natural health happenings!
This week, I am traveling to Finca Luna Nueva eco-lodge located
in the beautiful rainforest of Costa Rica. To be more exact, I’m
going to an, "Eco tourism destination and rain forest lodge in
Costa Rica dedicated to sustainable living in a tropical rain
forest environment." Sounds and looks fantastic…doesn’t
it?
Besides the fact that this is the trip of a lifetime, why would
I be traveling all the way to spend five days in the middle of the
Costa Rican jungle? New Chapter, a national brand...

Shortly after I
started working at Swanson Health Products (SHP), my team
participated in an assessment that evaluated communication
tendencies based on personality. My results showed that I am a
“Visionary: People-Oriented with a Swift Pace.” (I completely
agreed with my results—I am a very social person and I love to be
on the go.)
When I was approached to write a post about why I love working
at SHP, I knew what my five reasons were immediately. After I put
my list together, I looked back at...

The product junkie in me has been on a rampage again, and this
time I focused on my face—well, the skin on my face to be
exact. I have found a microdermabrasion scrub that I
absolutely love! I’ve been using it for four weeks now and I love
it as much as I did after the first use!
In the past, I tried other facial scrubs but they were too
abrasive and irritated my skin (not to mention all of the chemicals
and parabens they contained). This microdermabrasion scrub
features a crystal blend system...

The United Blood Services’ Bloodmobile visited
Swanson Health Products’ headquarters this past Wednesday. We
had approximately 40 employees make a donation in the
eight hours the Bloodmobile was on our campus!
It was the third time this year that the Bloodmobile had been
parked in the Swanson Health Products (SHP) parking lot and when I
saw it, my first thought was, “How fortunate are SHP employees that
we don’t have to take a lot of time out of our day to give blood?
It’s so convenient—we are...
