Jim Geike, Gaia Herbs CEO, joined 'Stretching Your Dollar' to talk about staying healthy this winter and how Gaia can help customers save money in the process.

"Herbs like turmeric and things like that really do have an effect on complimenting other parts of your regiment and making it easier to move."
