Lucky Vitamin Presents: E3Live

Filed Under: Announcements & News,Supplements at 5:00 am | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

Lucky Vitamin is proud to present an exclusive brand of top quality supplements to our customers: E3Live.

E3Live offers natural organic health supplements created not only the best ingredients but also the best when it comes to harvesting, filtering, testing and formulating all products. In business since 1991, the company is specialized in AFA, Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae, harvested from the Klamath Lake.

E3Live wants to educate and share with as many people as possible the benefits of E3Live AFA nutritional algae, which can help nourishing and detoxifying the body more than any other food. As with any wild-grown food, you want to be sure that you are getting 100% safe and edible AFA, harvested by the most reputable of harvesters. E3Live harvests AFA which produces its own energy and food from sunlight and moist conditions through photosynthesis. As the first protein and most ancient food on Earth, it is so sustainable on its own that it is the first sign of life scientists look for on other planets.

E3Live harvesting and purity testing not only meet, but exceed quality and safety standards for harvesting processes, adhering to strict Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) in order to maintain the Certified Organic status and Kosher certification. Additionally, Klamath Lake supports such massive blooms, but E3Live only harvests a small fraction of this amount, creating little to no effect on the carbon footprint.

The results of this premium work have translated into awards. E3Live has received many awards including 2012 Best of Raw Awards for Best Liquid Supplement, 2011 Best of Raw Awards for Single Best Superfood and the 2011 VegHealth Award for Best Superfood.

Noni juice has been one of these popular, “hot supplements” for a few years now. The variety of health benefits, the wonderful antioxidants properties and the improved taste are good reasons to keep Noni juice products continuously on the top-selling list.

Vitamin D May Help Muscle Recovery

Filed Under: Exercise and Fitness,Vitamins and Minerals at 4:00 am | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

Vitamin D is already known for providing a variety of health benefits and, adding to the list, a new study shows that vitamin D may help muscle recovery. Researchers from the Orthopedic Specialty Hospital have found that vitamin D can help with faster muscle recovery after intense exercise and may even prevent muscle damage caused by the exercise.

Published in the journal, Nutrients, Vitamin D and Human Health, this particular study concluded that higher vitamin D levels aids in muscle recovery. “We wanted to study the relationship between vitamin levels and recovery following intense exercise and we found that those who had higher vitamin D levels had a faster rate recovery from muscle damage.” said researcher Tyler Barker, PhD, lead author of the study.

Participants performed intense exercise with one leg while the other leg acted as a control. Then, their strength was tested at day one, two, three and seven, following the initial intense exercise by pushing against a special force plate. By assessing the amount of strength the leg has with the force plate, researchers could assess the initial muscle damage and then the recovery time and concluded that those with higher levels of vitamin D in their blood were able to regain their strength back quicker.

Researchers also concluded that vitamin D may protect against muscular weakness caused by muscle damage as vitamin D helps regulate different things like calcium and protein synthesis within the muscle that ultimately help a muscle move.

AM/PM Menopause Formula

Filed Under: Women's Health at 6:07 pm | By: Kim McCorkell, Senior Editor

What is menopause?
The term “menopause” describes the phase of life each woman experiences when her body stops menstruating. This marks the end of her child-bearing years as her ovaries naturally stop releasing eggs and producing most of their estrogen.

When does menopause occur?
For most women, menopause happens around the age of 51. However, every woman’s body is different. Some stop menstruating in their mid-40s, while others continue well into their 50s.

What are the symptoms of menopause?
Most menopausal women experience the following symptoms as their bodies produce less estrogen:

  • Hot flashes and night sweats
  • Occasional sleeplessness
  • Energy and weight fluctuations
  • Mood swings and irritability

Natural relief with AM/PM Menopause Formula
Because many women are uncomfortable with Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) as a treatment for menopausal symptoms, Enzymatic Therapy® has developed a safe, natural, hormone-free solution that effectively provides 24-hour relief.*

AM/PM Menopause Formula is a unique dietary supplement that actually contains two different formulas inside the same box that separately address daytime (AM) and nighttime (PM) symptoms of menopause.*

  • AM Formula (white tablet): Taken in the morning, this formula contains Panax Ginseng root and Green Tea leaf extracts to provide daytime energy and support breast health.*
  • PM Formula (purple tablet): Taken before bedtime, this formula contains Valerian root and Hops flower extracts, plus L-Theanine, to help you fall asleep                        naturally with no morning grogginess.*

Both formulas also contain a clinical dose of Black Cohosh extract to provide natural support and relief from hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings and irritability.*

Lucky Vitamin is happy to introduce another top quality brand of aromatic home and personal care products to our customers: Maroma.

Maroma offers an incredible selection of products to soothe, heal and restore. You can choose from a unique line of natural home fragrance products that were born of a place that combines the time proven methodology of an ancient civilization with a singularly French predilection for composing perfectly balanced aromatics.

The use of natural plant extracts to blend fragrance is integral to the 5000 year old cultural tradition in the city of Auroville in India, home of Maroma. The neighboring city Pondicherry was formerly a French trading colony supplying European perfume makers. The area’s incense production is world renowned, and naturopathic herbal healing has been a way of life here for countless generations. Maroma has utilized all of this rich cultural background and combined it with a very contemporary commitment to Earth-friendly product content and environmentally responsible manufacturing practices. This has resulted in a truly superior and diverse range of aromatic products.

Maroma creates and develops fragrance items formulated with essential oils to elevate the ambience of a room by clearing and refreshing the air. The natural extracts in all personal care products such as soap, bath salts and perfume were blended to promote a soothing sense of well-being and inner balance.

Additionally, all Maroma products are formulated with care for the environment and concern for social development. They are all made with botanical extracts and contain no toxic or harmful ingredients. All ingredients used in the fabrication of products are recyclable and abundantly present in nature or taken from renewable resources.

Finding the Perfect Balance of Eating and Exercising

Filed Under: Exercise and Fitness,Nutritional Bars at 7:00 am | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

It can be difficult to find the ideal balance of eating and exercise but the right formula can be essential to maximize your athletic performance. What to eat and when to eat can be a challenge and there isn’t a perfect rule as everyone is different and reacts differently to food.

When and what you eat can affect how you feel when you exercise. You need to eat before exercising. Fueling exercise requires quality carbohydrates, lean protein, heart-healthy fats, and fluids. Your muscles rely on carbohydrate for energy source. Protein is needed to build and maintain muscles. However, you shouldn’t eat too much before you exercise as you may feel sluggish and may experience stomach cramps. Eating too little may not give you the energy to keep you feeling strong throughout your workout.

Overall digestion-time varies as some people can eat one hour before an intense activity but others need over two hours to fully digest their meals. Nutritional bars and snacks can be helpful, not too heavy on your stomach but providing enough nutrients.

If you exercise early in the morning you may face a common problem. If you don’t eat, you could feel weak when you exercise but eating a full breakfast may not allow you enough time to digest before your workout. A light breakfast such as cereals, bananas, or breakfast bars can be the solution.

If you exercise any other time of the day, you can control how much you eat before exercise using this simple general guideline: eat large meals at least three hours before exercising. Eat small meals two hours before exercising. You can eat snacks an hour before exercising. Of course, drink plenty of water or sports drinks two hours before exercise to stay hydrated.

Just remember that everyone has different physical activities and finding the perfect balance depends on your specific workout and diet.

New Fat Burner Supplements Powered by Raspberry Ketone

Filed Under: Diet & Weight Loss,Supplements at 12:00 pm | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

Are you looking for a product to help achieving your goal of a lean and fit body? Look no further. Lucky Vitamin is happy to announce the two latest additions to our diet and weight loss selection: the new Raspberry Ketone Boost Liquid and the Green Coffee Lean with Raspberry Ketone, both products made by Gold Star Nutrition.

Raspberry ketone has been one of the most popular ingredients in our diet and weight loss section for years. This revolutionary metabolism booster was featured on The Doctor Oz show in his “Fat Busting Metabolism Boosters” segment, and since then, many people have accomplished excellent weight loss results.

A potent fat burner, Raspberry Ketone is a natural phenolic compound found in red raspberries. Raspberry ketone increases the secretion of adiponectin, a protein hormone which modulates a number of metabolic processes, including glucose regulation and fatty acid catabolism. Simply talking, it works by slicing the fat up inside the cell, making it easier to be burned. Researchers concluded that Raspberry Ketone holds great promise as a fat-burning, health improving herbal supplement, a revolutionary metabolism booster to help with fat loss.

Now, the latest product, the Raspberry Ketone Boost Liquid, goes a step beyond other raspberry ketone products by adding other well-known fat loss agents such as African Mango, green tea, apple cider vinegar, kelp, and grapefruit powder. These added ingredients work synergistically to create a po­tent dietary supplement. You can achieve your weight loss goals by combining the use of Raspberry Ketone Boost Liquid with regular exercise and a well-balanced nutritional plan.

In business since 1995, Gold Star Nutrition offers top quality, scientifically formulated supplements to help you accomplish your weight loss goals.

Alive!® Calcium

Filed Under: Supplements at 5:44 pm | By: Kim McCorkell, Senior Editor

Alive!® Calcium is a complete bone health formula with 100% plant source calcium

Easy to Absorb & Utilize
While many supplements contain calcium from limestone rock, seashells or animal bones, Alive! Calcium provides 100% plant based calcium in a natural, whole food matrix that may be easier for the body to digest, absorb and utilize.

Rapid Dissolving Tablets
Alive! Calcium tablets are designed to dissolve quickly in the digestive tract to ensure maximum levels of nutrients are available to be absorbed.

Complete Bone Formula
Alive! Calcium is a complete bone formula with nine essential vitamins & minerals needed to build and maintain stronger bones.* The formula includes:

  • Calcium (1,000 mg): Adequate calcium intake throughout life, as part of a well-balanced diet and regular exercise, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Taking Alive! Calcium provides 100% of the recommended daily intake of calcium.
  • Vitamin D3 (2,000 IU): Enhances your body’s ability to absorb and use calcium.*
  • Magnesium (500 mg) plus Vitamin C (60 mg): Helps your body maintain bone density.*
  • Vitamin K2 (100 mcg): Directs calcium to your bones where it is needed most, and away from your arteries.*
  • Boron (3 mg), Strontium (7 mg), Silica (5 mg) & Vanadium (101 mg): Important minerals that assist calcium in promoting healthy bones.*

Whole Food Plant Source
All of the calcium found in Alive! Calcium is derived from four of nature’s richest plant sources: Aquamin® lithothamnion, organic kale, organic spinach and organic collard greens.

All of the Vitamin C in the formula is also from 100% whole food, organic fruit sources: organic acerola, organic goji, organic kiwi and organic amla. About Aquamin Derived from Red Algae seaweed (Litho- thamnion sp.) found in the pristine waters off the coast of Iceland, Aquamin is rich in calcium, magnesium and 70+ other trace minerals including boron, silica, strontium and vanadium.

While in its growth phase, Lithothamnion absorbs minerals from the sea. Over time, it breaks down and settles on the sea floor where its calcified skeletal remains are harvested. Since only its calcified remains are harvested (not the young, living plants), Lithothamnion regenerates without interference— making it a naturally sustainable source of dietary calcium.

Alive! Calcium is gluten free and contains no sugar, yeast, wheat, dairy products, artificial flavors/colors or preservatives. Aquamin® is a registered trademark of Marigot Ltd.

Vitamin D for Babies

Filed Under: Announcements & News,Vitamins and Minerals at 12:00 pm | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

Recommendations of vitamin D supplements to babies were first established in the 1920s and a new study reinforces the importance of supplementation of the sunshine vitamin to breast-fed babies. The study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, shows that the current recommendations to babies, fully or partially breast-fed, is 400 IU per day “quite satisfactory,” said lead study author and registered dietitian Hope Weiler of McGill University in Canada. In 2011, the Institute of Medicine also recommended 400 IU of vitamin D as being beneficial to infants, from newborns to babies up to 12 months.

Vitamin D is essential for growing healthy bones because it helps the body absorb calcium, without enough calcium, bone production may suffer. The human body has the ability to produce vitamin D when the skin is directly exposed to the sun, which is not an option for infants as babies younger than six months should not have any type of sun exposure. Babies who are exclusively breast-fed or even partially breast-fed are unlikely to get enough vitamin D because their mothers may lack it. So, parents should give their babies vitamin D supplements, according to Dr. Steven Abrams, a professor of pediatrics at Baylor College of Medicine. He says only about 10 to 20% of babies who are breast-fed are also given vitamin D.

Flaxseeds Incredible Health Benefits

Filed Under: General Wellness & Wellbeing,Health Foods at 5:29 am | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

The benefits of flaxseeds have been known for many years but the even better news is that studies continue to discover new benefits from this wonderful tiny seed. Multiple studies have shown that flaxseeds may help reduce risks of cardiovascular disease, lung disease, and diabetes, and more recent research is investigating flaxseed’s ability to lower high cholesterol.

Flaxseeds contain three important components which are considered essential for optimal health: omega-3 fatty acids, lignans, and fiber. Many people like to sprinkle flaxseeds into their salads, sandwiches, or soups but if that doesn’t sound like a good option for you, no problem. Today, companies are adding flaxseeds to all sorts of foods, from breads to crackers, oatmeal to nutritional bars, giving you an extensive variety of options to obtain your daily dosage of flaxseeds from.

A recent study from Iowa State University’s Nutrition and Wellness Research Center (NWRC) shows a new potential benefit from flaxseeds as researchers discovered it may be able to lower high cholesterol in men, creating a more natural option than cholesterol-lowering drugs. The study examined the effects of flaxseed lignan in 90 people diagnosed with high cholesterol but no other underlying health conditions. The results showed that consuming at least 150 milligrams of flaxseed lignans per day decreased cholesterol in men by around 10 percent over the three months. The participants were divided into three groups and were randomly assigned to daily consume flaxseed lignans for 12 weeks. Interestingly enough, the study points out that flaxseeds had no cholesterol-lowering effect in women, as the flaxseed lignans did not produce a significant change in cholesterol levels in women.
