The main problem that I see with protein bars is that a great many of them are chock full of sugar; this alone makes it problematic for individuals that have diabetes to actually get the sort of additional protein or vitamins and minerals that they may need. Promax has just released a protein bar that has a low amount of sugar, so that individuals that have cut out sugar from…
Fans of TV sci-fi series are a tough bunch: if they don’t like your show you know about quickly through online rants and snarky tweets. But if they like it, they love it and will go to great lengths to let the rest of the world know that they should embrace it as well. Sanctuary, the Canadian series currently taking up residence on the Syfy Channel, falls into the latter…
The quality of the footage on this Blu-Ray set is impressive, giving viewers the chance to watch each episode of Fringe in a way that (for me, at least) goes beyond even the original airing of the shows. This is due to the fact that viewers are provided with the HD airing of each episode without being forced to watch (or skip over) the numerous commercials that are omnipresent. Furthermore,…
The type of pre-workout that one uses really determines the type of workout that one can do. The better pre-workouts will stick with a user longer after the workout closes up, while there are some products that are on the market that peter out in the middle of even a light intensity workout. The way in which All-American EFX creates their Cell Rush is smart – it links together Kre-Alkalyn…
Olivia: Princess for a Day contains eight episodes of the show; the double-length episode that lends its name to the DVD is where viewers will most often find themselves. Beyond that, episodes like Tip Top Tapper and Olivia Becomes A Chef are humorous, informative, and will keep the attention of any child that may be watching them. I found myself to be a fan of Olivia Goes International, which has…
The amount of different companies that are actively creating and promoting amino acid-containing products is high, but the level of quality for many of them is low. It seems that it is cheaper just to have a product that contains the base level of amino acids, and to push the hell out of it. However, Healthy ‘N Fit Nutritionals is concerned about the overall quality of the product, and that…
There is no reason why a fan of bourbon should not search out Basil Hayden’s 8 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon. The spirit is available at pretty much any liquor store that has more than a bare selection, and the quality of the bourbon is such that is immediately surpasses anything else that it can be immediately compared to. While there is the same bright burn that is typically present…
This is Wolf’s debut recording, but listeners will not be able to tell that with the caliber of tracks that are present. The album begins with 427 Mass Ave, a track that immediately introduces all to where Wolf is from and where ey wishes to take you with the rest of the album. Natural Beauties immediately follows up 427 Mass Ave, and showcases the storytelling skill of Wolf more than…
Clotilde is the first track on Minor World, and it immediately solidifies City of Ships space in with some of the darkest and most intense metal bands currently creating music. The act is able to create some tremendously emotional tracks on the album, all while moderating them with intense guitars and fulfilling drum work. The band is able to blend together equal parts indie rock, metal, and even alternative into…
It is always interesting to hear a band take on a different sound than what individuals may associate with them. Sometimes, it fails (Lil Wayne), but I can say that Not So Loud is a certifiable hit for The Bottle Rockets. Where there was a more punk and rock sound that would issue forth on previous recordings, the acoustic side of this recording ensures that fans of folk-punk and even…
A great number of the reviews that we at NeuFutur do for the health and fitness section focus on the workout supplement side of things. However, there are a number of supplements that are intended to work well if individuals have a more sedentary or light-workout based lifestyle. Natrol’s Slenderite is a perfect example of one of these supplements; it has been formulated to work well regardless of how intense…
Despite the gradual acceptance of larger sizes in a number of different stores as well as a larger number of malls containing plus size-based stores, the simple fact is that there is still only a small fraction of the clothes available for the slightly larger set. IGIGI, by Yuliya Raquel is a company that is attempting to make bleeding-edge fashion available to women of all sizes. The Tribeca Top that…
The organization Doctors Without Borders does a tremendous amount of good, ensuring that those that do not have ready access to health care will be provided for. However, I do not believe that many individuals have any semblance of the sheer work that these doctors have to go through, and that is precisely why a documentary like Living In Emergency had to be created. This is a gritty, grim documentary…
We are one of the lucky few magazines that have been granted access to the new Celine Dion fragrance, Signature. I believe that it will be one of the best sellers in the fragrance area through the holiday season and well into next year. While Celine Dion may not be a strong force in current popular music, there is no denying that ey is one of the biggest musicians that…
Lubriderm has created a new lotion that is incredibly versatile. This fragrance free lotion will be perfect for anyone that looks to get away from the strong smells of Axe and other products aimed at the younger set, while containing a quality typically only found with a much higher priced lotion. The only thing that we were not completely on board with with the lotion was exactly how much work…
I am not the biggest fan of a number of the different types of trail mixes that are available for purchase. I feel that it typically is a way for individuals to get by with the cheapest possible formulations. However, I feel that Aurora Products is a company that tries to make the best possible mixes, and nowhere is this found as well as in their Crunchy Asian product. We…
Pretty much any company has a fat burner or other metabolic-based energy pill on the market. There is a substantial amount of variation to be had with the supplements, both in terms of composition and of quality. We were able to review MRM’s Reload a few months back, and the quality of that product gave us high hopes for their Meta-Burn XTP. The product starts out with a decent chunk…
I think that training with ankle weights is something that is largely ignored by individuals interested in fitness. However, there are some serious benefits to be had when it comes to using weights on one’s extremities. The 20 pound weight of these ankle weights is just enough to create some serious resistance and allow individuals to gain muscle mass on the aforementioned part, as well as on the calf and…
Mark of Love is a movie that has came out of nowhere. The film is based around a similarly unknown British play (I love you!…And you…and you) and features a cast of unknown (but still impressive) actors to push forward the storyline. Mark is the lead character and is played by Bryan Price; Mark has a tremendously hard time staying in relationships. When ey is shot down yet again, Mark…
Everyone is familiar with the plain Crocs shoes. However, I do not know if these same individuals are familiar with the other offerings that Crocs provides. There are some pretty functional shoes to be had here, and our favorite would have to be the Patricia. The Patricia is a muted sandal that is available in a number of different color options, but has little more to it besides a few…
