No Carb Flavor Concentrates- A Unique Discovery For Dietician And Nutritionists

Friday, November 13th, 2009

Dieticians and Nutritionists recently conducted their annual conference and expo in Denver in October. Over 800 of these professionals were sampled with natural flavor concentrates that contain just a hint of stevia and 0 carbs. Their response was truly overwhelming. Not only did they think they delivered on flavor, but they loved the idea they contained no carbs.

The Dieticians and Nutritionists that were surveyed at the expo specialized in the areas of weight loss and diabetics. This group of practitioners understood the storyline that we’re drinking more calories than ever. About 450 calories a day, that’s a whopping 29 pounds annually consumers have to work off. Collectively, they saw the value in a 0 carb, 0 calorie flavor concentrate used to enhance the flavor of water while promoting proper hydration.

Dieticians and Nutritionists are challenged in the aid of weight loss and diabetes when it comes to drinks. Their clients are not able to drink high caloric beverages so they have very limited solutions for beverages and soft drinks. Natural flavor drops and concentrates with no carbs were a welcome recommendation for these professionals.

Benefits of Natural Skin Care

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

We have heard this many times, drinks lots of water and eat plenty of fruit and vegetables to maintain good health. While this is great for keeping health from the inside/out, what about from the outside/in of our bodies?

The skin is the largest organ of the body and takes up 15 – 20% of your actual total body weight. It literally holds us together. One of the most amazing qualities of the skin is its elasticity. But, as we grow older the skin starts to loose its elasticity. It is vitally important we look after our skin through out the changes in life to maintain the skins natural elasticity. Unfortunately people give skin little consideration.

Most skin care products that are sold in stores contain an array of harsh chemicals such as propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfates and petro-chemicals just to name a few. The average women applies more than 200 chemicals on her skin in one day and about 60% of these chemicals are absorbed into the bloodstream. What these chemicals do is strip away the natural oils from the skin leaving your skin more vulnerable to skin damage.
