More than half the hungry families who seek help from food pantries across the state are so poor they have to choose between paying for housing and buying food, a new report shows.

The new data come from a study done in cooperation with Feeding America, a national organization working to feed the hungry and raise awareness of hunger issues. In Utah, more than 400 people were interviewed, providing the Utah Food Bank with the most detailed data it has ever received.

“The study really reveals who is the face of hunger,” said Jessica Pugh, spokeswoman for the Utah Food Bank. “The findings are surprising.”

Among the details: 43 percent of households seeking help at food pantries have at least one adult employed. More than three-quarters of the households earned less than the federal poverty level, which is about $24,000 for a family of four in Utah.

An estimated 245,100 people use food from pantries across the state each year. Among the group surveyed, 58 percent must choose between food and utility bills or food and rent. About 47 percent must choose between food and medicine or medical care.

On a positive note, Pugh said Utahns who rely on food pantry help are happy with the community’s donations. The data show that 92 percent of adult clients were either “very satisfied” or “somewhat satisfied” with how much food they receive. About the same percentage were happy with the quality.

Orem f8 Blend Drinkers Losing Weight

 When I introduce people in Orem to f8 Blend health supplement and start explaining its benefits, they often stop me when I mention that its an Appetite Suppressant. It is not surprising that people of all ages are looking for a way to achieve and maintain a healthy weight.

The American lifestyle has a way of sabotaging our best efforts.

Consider this: it is far easier, quicker and cheaper to get a high-fat, high-sodium, low-fiber and nutritionally empty meal in Orem than a meal that would actually benefit our body. Think about the residential and commercial neighborhoods in Provo and Pleasant Grove. Are they designed to encourage walking or driving? How do we combat the environmental and biological factors that continually thwart our best intentions?

I drink f8 Blend every morning and have found it to be the best weight management aid I have ever used.

Blend contains Green Tea Extracts, Quercetin and Resveretrol. This mighty threesome suppresses appetite, speeds up metabolism, helps regulate glucose, inhibits fat absorption and increases energy.

I don’t expect you take my word for it. If you do some independent research, you will find mountains of evidence including over one hundred scientific studies confirming the individual health properties of Quercetin, Resveretrol and Green Tea Extracts. And don’t forget, Blend contains ALL THREE.

Hi, I’m Kellie Roring, an independent distributor of f8’s Blend. I hold short, educational f8 meetings for interested health-minded men and women. These gatherings are usually comprised of people who live in the Salt Lake City area, but I also get a lot of attendees from Provo and Draper. If you want to try something scientifically proven to help with weight management, call me at 801-369-5808 to find out the time and place of my next f8 meeting. If you prefer email, I can be reached at takenf8@gmail.com .

Quercetin, f8 Blend and Dr. Oz in Orem

I found a great video that demonstrates one of the ways f8 Blend is ahead of the pack when it comes to the most effective natural ingredients. The following video is from Dr. Mehmet Oz’s new show: “The Dr. Oz Show“.

f8 Blend has used quercetin from the beginning, before it was the “in” health booster. A serving of Blend contains the precise adult dosage of quercetin for steady all-day energy.

In the video, Dr. Oz mentions that apples and onions contain quercetin. While it is smart to consume as many fruits and veggies as possible, it is difficult to ingest enough quercetin every single day to keep your energy at peak levels. If you start your day with Blend, you won’t suffer as much from those busy days when most of your calories come from a Orem fast food drive-through window. (I know, none of us want to admit what we eat when we are too busy to prepare something sensible or sit down for an expensive meal at a Draper health food restaurant.)

If you are one of those disciplined Orem folks who exercise regularly and eat a balanced diet, you can still benefit from Blend. Add it to your daily regimen to experience total health and well-being.

Quercetin does much more than help with fatigue. It is also used in Salt Lake City to treat allergies, asthma, cataracts, heart disease and cancer. There are several clinical studies underway that will help Provo and Draper doctors and biologists better understand this natural plant component; I’ll post them here as they become available.

If you want to buy or sell f8 Blend in Orem, call me at 801-369-5808. There is a growing demand for f8 products in the Salt Lake City area and I could use some help. If you believe in healthy living and enjoy meeting new people in and around Draper, I would like to speak with you.
