(02:26):
sort of been working for our community in that area.
I'll be able to kind of point you in the
right direction.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Pat some great calls over the years, we'd love to

It's always a great opportunity to get on the air.

I'm starting to see first day of school photos. I
know my son goes back next week and a lot
(02:53):
of families getting prepared for that first day of school.
And you guys are speaking of doing cool things for
the folks. You guys in the healthy place are doing
something pretty cool you've got to You've got a back
school sale underway, don't you.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, so we've we've brought in a dozen new brands
in the last year. It's just about the recent months actually,
it's been pretty exciting in the kid's kind of arena,
the kids section, you know, whether we're talking about like
shampoo and you know, lotion topicals like that are part
of that EWG group, that environmental working group that sort
(03:28):
of guards from sustainable sourcing, you know, ingredient and packaging clean, contrusted,
and then you know, obviously supplements is our main stick
and Lama Naturals, Joy Spring Mary Ruth. Over the years,
there's been a consistent struggle in the supplement industry of
like kidster supplements having high nutrition and tasting good. So
(03:51):
you know, it was like June and Becky and I
are chat and like, man, we gotta we got to
really find some high quality brands that also take least
super good because you know, we have kids and we're
doing the same thing. We're trying to force them to
take this stuff. And it's like, so you got if
you're listening, you have kids twenty five percent off this
week on all of our kids lines. And I would
(04:15):
encourage you to check it out, like Lamin Naturals it is.
It's so good. They use real fruit, so no added sugar,
so you're not getting that glycemic kind of insulin spike.
Joy Spring Mary Ruth, Like these are very popular brands,
very high quality, and they taste like amazing, and I'm
sort of like really excited about that because again, you know,
(04:36):
over the years, you try to like educate a community
and like take this, take this, take this, and if
the kidstars don't like it, then it's constant pushback and
parents have a hard time sort of like continuing to
get that into their kids. So it's changed, you know,
come check us out. Checked out the Joy Spring lam
Naturals Mary Ruth. Multi item in probiotic omega threes are
(04:57):
like the three pillars. You know. Parents come in, they'll
be like, Okay, I got a couple of kids, Like
what are kind of like the most important things that
I can give them? And it's multi vitamin because we're
all nutritionally deficient in one way or another. That goes
for our kids. STIs as well. Omega threes because every
cell in the body is surrounded with essential fatty acids
(05:19):
so every system gets benefited. Your sees benefit from Omega's
brain development great for kids obviously, and mood sort of balancing,
which is very important you know in the schoolroom at home.
Omega threes. Tons of science behind that, very good science
reason to believe that Omega threes can help with those things.
(05:42):
And then the third one that's big is probiotics. You know,
you're good and bad bacteria are always in a race
for our kids too. You're good bacteria. You want to
give it a leg up, you know, going into coffin
cold season. Eighty percent of the immune system is controlled
in the gut. So those are sort of like the
three pillars, if you will, in the kid supplement universe.
(06:04):
And then you know, kind of side note for immune
system since you know, thinking of coffin cold season coming up.
The big ones are vitamin D and elderberry and so
all five of those I think every parent should sort
of have in their arsenal to sort of like strengthen
their kid kid kiddos. And all of those are in
(06:27):
very tasty like no sugar, low sugar, tasty, high nutritional
you know kind of ways and approaches to take that.
So yes, all week twenty five percent off our whole
kid all of our lines for kids, and it's obviously
a good week to take action there. And you know
again for my kids, we're starting school next week too,
So here we go.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Exciting times ahead and tim as we as we talk
about the reason as adults we need vitamins children same
same reasons, if not more. I remember reading sort of
a national geographic a couple of years ago, into headline
basic saying that fruits and vegetables less nutritious than they
used to be. And they talk about how, you know,
because of mass production agricultural practices that the fruits and vegetables.
(07:10):
I mean, as parents, you know, feeding your kid those
fruits and veggies because they're so important, but they're not
what we used to get when we are hit.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
From the nineteen fifties. This is shocking. Like a bowl
of salad in the nineteen fifties literally had twice the
amount of nutrients that it has now. Brown rice from
the nineteen seventies went down in calcium by forty percent.
This is this is I mean, this is shocking to me.
Like broccoli from nineteen oh I'm losing the dates from
(07:39):
nineteen seventy five something like that. Ninety five went down
in vitamin C by twenty five percent. And on top
of that deficiency, there's been more chemicals pestides, orbicides, fungicides
put on our foods more so than ever before in history.
So with those couple of things combined, it's like people
(07:59):
have a very honest question for me. Often they're like,
you know, one hundred years ago, tim this stuff didn't exist,
like these supplements didn't exist, Like why now, And it's
like it's such an honest and real question, and it's
like rewind a hundred years ago, the food that people
ate was like exponentially more nutritious, you know, the amount
(08:20):
of chemicals, Like there's something like seventy thousand chemicals that
we use here in the United States, and something like
forty thousand of those chemicals are totally illegal in Europe
because they're so bad for the human body. So we're
just living in this sort of like Petrie dish. You know,
we're driving behind cars that belt line traffic, like you know,
(08:40):
breathing in exhaust from the car in front of us,
like oxidative stress. You take a bite o of an
apple turns brown like that's that's happening to our bodies,
our organs, Like it's in a very different world than
it was a hundred years ago. So I love that
point and I kind of get excited about it because
that's why I got into the supplement industry. It's like
these two main categories, like people are suffering, you know,
(09:01):
chronic pain, stress, anxiety, depression, sleep issues, adjust of issues,
and that's category one. And supplements can help natural alternatives work.
It's good for people to know about them so that
they can be the CEO of their own health and
make decisions around their health, you know. And then the
second group of people is like, man, I want to
live a better or I want to live a good
(09:23):
quality of life. And we all have these deficiencies. We
all have our good and bad bacteria in e race.
We all sort of battle inflammation, which leads to chronic pain,
and you know, every form of disease. You talk about
quality of life. Epigenetics is something I like to kind
of geek out on a little bit. Genetics is sort
of like what you're born with, and it was believed
(09:44):
for a long time, like, hey, you know any you
know disease, it's all connected to genetics, there's nothing you
can do to sort of change or prevent or treat.
And so now the world has kind of flipped a
little bit where it's like epigenetics, which means above genetics
is that which you can control nutrition, which includes supplements.
So like, my goodness, all that you know a lot
(10:04):
of science coming out that many diseases are preventable, which
is sort of mind blowing because that creates like this
sense of urgency to get that word out again. Why
Becky and I started the company in twenty ten and
doctor A jail Gouls, one of my heroes, works out
of the Baylor University down in Texas. He was trying
(10:25):
to cure cancer for like a decade in his career,
and the ground that he was making with his team
was so small, and he stumbled across like epigenetics. He
kept seeing the power of prevention, and so then he moved.
The last fifteen twenty years he's been working on prevention
and the science that's coming out around. You know, inflammations
(10:46):
a part of almost all diseases, and so if you
can clean your body of inflammation every day with nutrients
like percumin, like, there's some good science supporting. Hey, the
whole topic of prevention. So making action is what I
love to talk about. So if you have you know,
been in our stores, I thank you. And if you haven't,
(11:06):
like come check us out. And if not us, like
get somebody on your team that can sort of be
a guide in the supplement space because there's so many
voices and it's nice to know, like what can I
do to sort of take action in this area or
that area. And our team, Becky and I are kind
of strategic in not wanting our team to sort of
(11:28):
have commission like as at like G and C or
you know, Vitamin Shop. Like there's just commission as a
part of the story and that isn't bad. I'm not
saying it's bad. It's just a distraction. Like we want
to be able to do like souls before sales, Like
we want to be able to you know, sort of
extend that care to the community, add that value, and
then sales sort of take care of themselves. The more
we add value. So if you have questions like hey,
(11:51):
quality of life or hey I'm suffering or loved one suffering,
like what natural alternatives can work, Like, we want you
to become the CEO of your Own Health. That's like
our whole purpose of being in Madison here.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
You mentioned taking action. It's today is a great day
to do that. It always starts that kind of tim
that first step and encouraging people to take that first step.
And I think one of the great things too, I've
learned from you in talking with you over the years
is you should notice the difference I think sometimes with
people with supplement some of things like I just take
this vitamin multivitamin every single day. Do you know anything, well, no, Well,
you should see a difference and quality and and sourcing
(12:28):
these things, they're all super important. And of course when
it comes to chatting with a wellness consultant at the
Healthy Place, they can get you up to speed on
all of that stuff. It's a great day to get
on in. Whether it's the West side of Madison, Sun
Prairie location or Fitchburg Will Tim will be hanging out

He'll be out there from Tim this morning till five pm.
Stop out, say hello, tell them how much you love
the show, and yeah, I know, I know, Tim, you
do really appreciate seeing folks and one of the things too,
folks can do when they stomp in. I know, we're
(14:03):
all very busy. We've all got a bunch of different
things going on, and sometimes that leads to maybe not
the best choices when it comes to snags, and sometimes
not the best choices when it comes to other grab
and go type items. You guys at the Healthy Place
are doing something really really cool when it comes to
some grab and go items at the Healthy Places.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Thank you so much, man. Yeah, so, Becky and I
mentioned kind of the new brands that we've been bringing in,
specifically like kids brands like this fall are going to
be bringing in a number of new like beauty personal
care brands. And the third sort of category that we've
sort of been bringing in a bunch of new brands
is the grab and go category. So that would be
like ready to drink protein drinks, you know, electrolyte drinks,
(14:50):
organic sort of clean low sugar or energy drinks, and
all of your snacks and sort of like your grab
and go healthy organic clean sna ax bars for kids
for adults, you know that family unit and a part
of this strategy as we've been sort of looking through
or reading book called Playing to Win, like we really
(15:11):
want to, you know, we set out in twenty ten
it's like, Okay, we want to move the needle on
people's health. We want to you know, we sort of
have been distilling, like what's our goal, Like we want
to move the needle on life expectancy and like total
pharmaceutical drug intake, and like we want to end suffering
and increase quality life, et cetera. So we have our
sort of like winning aspiration in madisone, and like out
(15:31):
of that flowed like, man, okay, this snack grab and
go category has it's really tough because the stuff is
so darn expensive. It's often expensive for us to buy it,
and then we need a margin typically on that as
a business, right, so then it makes it even more
expensive for the consumer for our community. And so we're like, okay,
what if we made our entire grab and go category
(15:55):
be at our cost? Like what if we did that?
And you know, how can we do it for six months,
a year, two years? Like I honestly don't know yet,
but like what I what we did decide is how
freaking cool would that be if we put all of
our grab and go category at costs. So for like
you know, just throwing some brand names out there, like
Element is an electrolyte that's like very popular. It's like
(16:18):
very good quality. It's super hot outside, like people should
be getting their electrites in like chomps uh. You know,
Aloha Bars, Go Macro Bars, which is a local company,
Scout Bars. These are very delicious, like very good foods,
all at our costs. Like drinks. You know, Jocko Willink
(16:40):
is one of my favorite humans, like navy former neighbor's
Navy CEO officer, and he has a cool brand like
his his whole like grab and go category, his his
energy drinks, you know, like it's all at cost. I'm
so pumped about this, dude, because like I know, my
family right, it's it's expensive. It just all adds up.
So you can count on us at the healthy place
(17:02):
to have our grab and go category like at cost
for the foreseeable future, like we're saying at least the
next six months. Check it out, stock up. It's truly
at our cost. And the whole idea is, you know, hey,
we're selling this like at our cost because we want
to add value. Part of that playing to win strategy
that we're going through is like, how do we add
(17:22):
so much value to our community that we really move
the needle. And you know, foot traffic is going to
help us. So it's like not like it's a negative
for somebody to come in buy it at costs, Like
foot traffic is always good for a retail store. So
we're winning. The community is winning. And I wanted to
throw that out there because it's like meaningful to me
and it's tasty, so come check it out.
Speaker 3 (17:44):

best reason is to say hello though, so just great
