  Letter from WON: Happy New Year, WONFamily!! 2017 seems like it should be a happy and healing year after what 2016 brought us. Around here, we accomplished some of our biggest goals, I mean to land on the cover of the Vitamin Retailer Magazine, a magazine you have read for 20-some years, is quite surreal. 2016 was an amazing and very hard year for World of Nutrition. Getting through the financial struggles from a move and renovation were difficult to say the least. This year has been hard fought and with that fight we accomplished some BIG things. Now that most of the hard work is behind us, it will be exciting to watch what happens next. We have some big hopes and dreams and thanks to our amazing customer's loyalty and testimonies we hope to accomplish many of those this year. Let's make it the healthiest and happiest year possible! Cheers to 2017! From all of us WON girls  WON.Edu: All About Hydrosols Hydrosols are the water coproduct produced during the distillation of essential oils. Every essential oil creates a hydrosol. A common misconception about hydrosols are that they are water with essential oils added to them. They are not, and have different properties than their essential oil counterparts. Hydrosols hydrate, tone and refresh your skin naturally, and who doesn't need that this time of year! Read more   So many sports supplements contain really junky ingredients, including synthetic amino acids, chemical vitamins produced industrially, artificial colors, flavors and sweeteners and dangerous stimulants often contaminated with banned substances. We believe that athletes, who treat their bodies as their temples, deserve much cleaner and better products. And who better to raise the bar than Garden of Life?

 Jarrow: MagMind, SAMe 400 25% off
  Letter from the Owners: Yoga, a daily resolution we kept and never regretted... It's hard to believe that four years ago this January we started a daily yoga practice at home. Armed with determination, a mat, straps, a block and a DVR full of Adrienne Reed, Power Yoga Mind and Body. We came up with a schedule based on the areas of focus that the episodes followed:
Hindsight tells us we should have understood what the "power" in Power Yoga Mind and Body meant, but that descriptor apparently was lost on us until we finished the first class. Being new to yoga we found ourselves asking the recording on tv, "isn't there another modification?" We kept notes about the episodes, notes like "this pose is currently impossible" (Crow, now mastered by Allison, ok maybe not mastered, but it at least it is now possible). Starting a daily yoga practice was a New Year's resolution we made and kept because it gave us so much in return for our effort. We gained strength and flexibility. It offered relief of back pain and tight muscles. We learned to take time to breathe and be mindful. We connected our mind with our body. If you have been thinking about starting a daily yoga practice, don't wait for the new year, start now! Watch a video or take a class. We are so passionate about yoga we have teamed up with Yoga430 to offer classes at World of Nutrition. So dust off your mat, use one of ours or buy one and get to class (in your home, in a studio or at World of Nutrition). Namaste, Kris & Allison Wear  WON EDU: Nature's Antibiotics Antibiotics do not fight viral infections like colds, flus, the majority of sore throats (only about 10% of sore throats end up being Strep Throat), bronchitis, and many sinus and ear infections. This is why it is more important than ever to provide you and your family with powerful, natural antibiotics that will effectively boost immune health and not destroy it.

  We are changing our hours... As of September 1st, we will be open Monday - Saturday 10AM - 7PM  Letter from the Owners: A Year in Downtown Nampa: What a year it has been since moving the store to its new home in downtown Nampa! When we reflect on the past year we like to look at photos. Photographs capture a moment that is gone forever, a memory. When we look back at photos, we remember and celebrate the high points and learn and grow from the low points. We had such a sense of pride to be able to open the doors of the store with the former building owners, Dave and Joan Lancaster. We suffered the loss and violation of being broken into, and we learned from this experience. We rooted ourselves, our dogs and the store in the downtown community. We offer weekly educational seminars and lectures where we were able to host pioneers in the natural products industry, Roslyn Rogers and Terry Lemerond. With our move to downtown we felt the store needed a fresh new brand, so we changed our logo once again! And to cap off a great first year in our new location we were named Vitamin Retailer Magazine’s 2016 Retailer of the Year. Recognized for our sales growth, focus on bulk, knowledgeable staff, and our decision to renovate a historic building in downtown Nampa. Sometimes we look back and wish we had taken a photo to capture a moment (or offloaded the images before your GoPro got stolen). If you are like most Americans, you are walking around with a mini computer in our back pocket or purse equipped with a camera. You have the ability to capture and remember every moment in life. You just have to snap the photo! Don’t miss a moment to capture a memory. Enjoy some of our memories from our first year in downtown Nampa.  World of Nutrition is please to announce we are now carrying 100% Organic Veriditas Essential Oils & Blends. We feel their products support our mission of providing the community with high quality products that offer therapeutic results made by people that share those same values.  From farm to home pharmacy, our relationships are the cornerstone of how and why we do business.

  I (Kris) have spent most of my life interacting with people about their health. During that time I’ve had the opportunity to ask a lot of questions about how people live their lives. Allison and I both have read countless blogs on the X number of things ______ (successful, healthy, happy, etc) people do everyday. Here is our list of ingredients that we think make up a recipe for a healthy life:
We try to do most, if not all of these things each day. We enjoy several walks each day with our dogs, and on Sunday, we like to make time for a beautiful walk on the Nampa Greenbelt. Come join us in accomplishing #13 on the list, Sunday, August 7th @ 9AM. It is a chance to learn more about what we do each day for our health and the health of our dogs. We meet at 1436 S. Edgewater, Nampa. Choose your speed and distance. Walking not only gets you out of the house, but research shows it can get you out of mental ruts and into terrific physical shape!

 Three years ago I told Allison that someday I was going to be on the cover of Vitamin Retailer magazine as their Retailer of the Year. She laughed at me, not because she didn’t think it could be done, but because she understood what a truly big deal it would be to win. Vitamin Retailer magazine has one of the highest circulations among all of the business publications serving the health and natural products industry. At present, VR has a total circulation of over 15,000 recipients, including over 12,000 retailers and distributors of natural products, and more than 500 pharmacies. This is a national publication, and the award is not based on store size or corporate vs. locally owned. We are beyond excited to announce that World of Nutrition is the 2016 Retailer of The Year! It is a huge dream come true and we couldn't have accomplished it without being surrounded by some amazing people.

 Three years ago, when business was really bad I had a sales rep contact me about a new product. He told me to trust him and to bring it in. That it worked and it could help a lot of people with pain. I trusted that sales rep and trusted Curamin. It has saved many people from pain and it saved WON from a very painful bottom line. In case you ever wondered, Curamin is THE top selling product at WON! Terry Lemerond, creator of Curamin has 45 years of experience in the health food industry as an owner of several health food stores and dietary supplement manufacturing companies. He has researched and developed over 400 nutritional and botanical formulations that continue to be top selling products on the market today. I have followed Terry for as long as I can remember and he has been a true inspiration to me. I am grateful to Terry everyday for that. I have had firsthand experience in how Terry's products can change lives. He is a true innovator in the natural products industry. And he is coming to WORLD OF NUTRITION!! The entire WON Staff, Allison and I are beyond thrilled to have Terry visit our store and host his free educational lecture on Tuesday, June 7th from 6-8PM.

 Happy May, WON Family! Before we moved the store to downtown Nampa we had several goals. We wanted to become part of the community, to get out, walk around and visit other businesses; and to encourage the citizens of Nampa to be healthy. We encouraged all of you to re-discover downtown Nampa when you come to World of Nutrition. We asked you to visit our fellow downtown businesses and make a day out of coming to our historic downtown (Flying M, Messenger Pizza, Canyon County Co-op, PreFunk, Blue Belle Java & Juicery to list a few of our favorites). Of course, those were just a few of our goals. It seems that we are constantly working on some sort of change or some exciting new project and this month is proving to be no different! Last month we unveiled our new, fresh logo, which has been fun and exciting! Now we are on to our next venture that we are so thrilled and proud of...getting WON aka Kris and Allison approved food on a menu right here in downtown Nampa! A brand new restaurant has opened in downtown Nampa called Destination 112, located at 112 13th Ave So (just around the corner from WON). Destination 112 has two WON approved salads, a soup and currently one entrée on their menu. All WON approved items use organic vegetables, grass fed beef, and organic fed, free-range chicken. In addition to the WON approved menu items, some of their meals can be made gluten and grain free including some of their dressings and sauces. This is LIFE CHANGING for us! Destination 112 is currently open for dinner and will begin serving lunch on May 3rd. We hope the next time you are in downtown Nampa shopping at World of Nutrition you make plans to have lunch or dinner at Destination 112 to try out some of meals with the WON stamp of approval! ~Allison & Kris Wear
