Living with the Book Segment #4

By now some of you may have purchased the 2nd issue of Better Magazine, which was created by Dr. Jen Ashton. In Segment #3, on this blog, I commented on her first issue of the magazine, which you can read about at this link https://hairblues.me/2023/06/19/living-with-the-book-segment-3/.
I always have news you can use 🙂

I assure you this is a magazine you want in your reading pile. The topics provide guidelines on how to live your best healthful life.

Have you thought about Plastic Surgery? Well, if your answer is yes, you will want to read what her “Core Expert” has to say about things you should consider. It is an article you can trust because Dr. Ashton reveals that her brother is a “renowned reconstructive plastic surgeon“…
Do you want advice on how to get more sleep, or what foods you should have in your diet? Do you want to look younger at any age? What is “Exercise Snacking“? These are just some of the topics that you can look forward to reading. And there is a lot more.

In addition, I hear Dr. Jen Ashton is coming out with a 3rd issue of her Better Magazine in May 2024.
