Voxx HPT & Your Brain
Did you know that your brain controls all aspects of your being?
The brain is a complex organ that controls thought, memory, emotion, touch, motor skills, vision, breathing, temperature, hunger and every process that regulates our body. Together, the brain and spinal cord that extends from it make up the central nervous system.
When our neuroreceptors come in contact with the Voxx HPT pattern it triggers a response sending information to your central nervous system. That information activates commands for your peripheral nervous system to follow, from regulating pain to maintaining motor control and balance.
Look for Local at Sobeys
Rede-Made Noodles is proud to be a Manitoba-made, family-owned pasta production company located in Winkler. Rede-Made uses only the best ingredients sourced from Manitoba farms, proudly making noodles the way it’s been done for generations – by rolling out the dough, cutting it, and packaging small batches. The result is taste, texture, and quality that will take you back to the warmth and love of Grandma’s kitchen. Rede-Made noodles began as a small operation in 1998, by Pete and Eva Redekop. Now, Rede-Made Noodles continues to grow and currently employs eight women, most of whom are grandmothers themselves. Look for Manitoba-made Rede-Noodles the next time you do your grocery shopping at Sobeys.
