Natural Health Happenings

Tara - PR

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!

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...
