We admit it: there is something you can’t do with cold-pressed and crystallized True Citrus. You need whole oranges (and try lemons too!) to make these pretty, light catching decorations for your tree or for garlands.
The recession has had a big impact on many, if not most Americans. Lots of us are out of work. The value of our houses and 401ks are down. And now the gift-giving season looms. Talk about a challenging time to not get the blues!
But let’s keep it real, or optimistic anyway. One good thing about being stymied in the pursuit of wealth is the chance to discover the things that truly give long-lasting happiness.
Stumped about what to give the person who has everything? Consider putting together a holiday gift basket full of good-for-you treats that can help them recover from a cold or stay healthy through the long winter months ahead.
The basket can be any container such as a bowl, large tin, pitcher, tote bag or even a flower pot. And the contents? We think True Lemon, True Orange and True Lime boxes or shakers are great to include because they help encourage water consumption, and because they give your loved ones' bodies a much-needed natural Vitamin C boost.
The Holidays are upon us! Too much to get done, too many places to go, too many people to see! Plus, its cold outside! So what’s the easiest thing to skip during the onslaught of family and festivities? Exercise! But exercise is probably the last thing we should give up. It’s one of the best defenses against holiday weight gain. And moderate to intense exercise, like heavy weight lifting or interval aerobics, boosts your endorphins, giving you long-lasting good feelings and making all those holiday must-do’s a lot more enjoyable. So
try to prioritize exercise this winter to reap the mental and physical rewards. Here are some winter stick-to-it-tips from True Citrus users:

Too much family and friends, not enough family and friends, overeating, over-drinking, over-shopping, over-scheduled, on top of the usual daily to do’s!

Keep a few of these holiday de-stressors in mind!
