Even the holistic esthetes amongst us have too much of something not good for us- during the Thanksgiving-New Year’s onslaught.
Coupled with NO TIME, we were game to try idiot proof, immune boosting aids…that are sugar- carb-calorie-and caffeine-free.
One genius, tasty way to this healthier life was presented in the cozy confines of NY’s Cornell Club last week by Pure Inventions™…a collection of good for you liquid extracts now available online. Simply put, one or two droppers of these delectable enhancements added to plain old water, doused on an AM’s bowl of cereal (or like us, late night munchies) or added to a festive cocktail…can provide a load of healing ingredients that sure beats gulping down a handful of supplements any day.
Completely free of anything that adds the weight but naturally sweet, and flavor packed with anti-oxidants, Pure Inventions concentrates are available in:
Green Tea: scientifically shown to work wonders with each standardized ‘dose’ worth 100mg without the caffeine-and now in palatable fruit flavors (raspberry, pineapple-coconut)
Pomengrate with Acia Berry: the new “it” free radical buster
Cranberry with Elderberry Extract: boosting immunity and calming an overworked digestive system
Blueberry with White Tea: A proven anti-aging antioxidant
Chocoholics can even indulge in the brand new line of COCOA extracts that are PROMISE- sugar and caffeine free. A dropper of this addictive essence in some warm frothy non-fat milk is as satisfyingly delicious as those calorie loaded numbers we usually sip.
We also feel the soon to launch (March 2008), tropical energy extract will become the choice of athletic water bottles, replacing that nasty tasting, calorie packed sugary stuff. Plus the thrifty ease of these extracts…. each 4oz bottle provides 60 servings- are guaranteed to be real deal/full strength, standardized nutritional additions unlike the vitamins seemingly peddled everywhere.
We really must congratulate founders Lori Mulligan and Lynn Gerhards, two clinical nutritionists- who pioneered these yummy therapeutic essences.
