Yes! 02:57 Okay, wow, so it's important to be aware of that. 02:58 I imagine, there are some companies out there that are not 03:03 in your well-being but are in it for the money. 03:05 So they will put whatever's hot on the market, the next 03:08 crave of this supplement, or this vitamin has this benefit. 03:12 They always put it right on the label, but it may not be 03:16 really inside the product. 03:17 Exactly, yeah! 03:18 Okay, well thank you so much. 03:20 Aaron I appreciate you time for talking to us. 03:22 Well, no problem! 03:23 The mall has great resources, you can work out, you can 03:28 check on your shoes, and you can find basically health 03:32 products here and a staff that are willing to help. 03:38 Now, wasn't that exciting? 03:39 The Mall, who would think the things 03:41 you can find in a Mall? 03:42 It is so important that vitamins 03:45 be a part of your supplements. 03:47 With me today I have a good friend and were going to do 03:50 a great workout and talk more about vitamins 03:52 during our workout. 03:53 Curtis, How are you doing my brother? 03:54 I'm doing fine, thank you for having me. 03:56 We're going have a great workout today. 03:58 Like we said let's talk about vitamins while we're doing 04:01 our workout with those at home to anchor more things in. 04:03 Now you may have seen Curtis before. 04:05 He is the co-director and has a ministry called 04:09 Abundant Life, correct? 04:10 Abundant living.
