There are so many different products that are currently available that look to decrease wrinkles and the other ravages of time. The price range that one can conceivably pay is considerable, and for many products, there is no promise that the product will actually work. We were able to receive the Murad Resurgence Age-Diffusing Firming Mask for review and test it over the course of a month. We are…
There are a number of different holistic health web sites that are currently active. However, the information that is provided on these websites is a little shaky. We were lucky enough to find a Health Blog that has all of their information up to date. This will allow an individual to increase their overall level of health and get the information that they need to live a long and healthy…
It seems that pretty much any food product or supplement that can have probiotics does. It has been a buzzword for the last year, but the amounts of probiotics that are present in these goods just do not seem to be enough to assist digestion. Swanson Probiotics has released their Dr. Stephen Langer’s Ultimate 15 Strain Probiotic with FOS for $14.99 (a current offer provides purchasers with two bottles…
Another of our reviewers was able to review Heelys a few months back. We were able to procure a sample of the male version of the shoes. Call it fate or just good marketing, but we received a pair that had the Kent State (blue / yellow) colors. I was able to test the shoes out and can report that they are incredibly versatile. The comfort level of the…
Platinum Model 520 – Women’s Lifting Gloves / http://www.schiek.com / We have been able to test out Schiek’s Platinum Model 520 for a number of months. We are pleased to report that they can take any sort of beating. This means that whether it be gripping the bar for a squat, powering through chest presses, or doing deadlifts or dumb bell work, the Schiek gloves are able to provide substantial…
There is a lot of stress to be had on a daily basis. For many of us, there is no way to calm down and just let the world pass us by for a moment. Cool Focus is a supplement that allows that to happen – its blend of different herbs like Passion Flower Extract, L-Theanine and PharmaGABA (Gamma Amino Butyric Acid) allows individuals to put worry and concern behind…
One can supplement with a bevy of products and not get anywhere. This is because the different supplements, be they a pre-workout, protein, vitamin, or the like – cannot heavily impact the bloodstream. The Black Betas product released by Eight Ball Nutrition is one of the first products that we have reviewed that looks to do that. I believe that those that want to push their workouts to the…
There are many creatine-containing products on the market. However, the C-AKG powder produced by Olympian Labs is one that is head and shoulders above the pack. There are no other additions in this product, just Creatine-Alpha-Ketoglutarate. This ensures a certain purity to the product that is unheard of; one will be able to work in a scoopful of C-AKG Powder to the workout regimen, no matter what products one already…
We have received a number of different omega-containing compounds as of late. Many of them fade into the masses, but we were very excited to receive and review Nordic Naturals’ latest, their Omega-3 Effervescent. This product has a delightful orange flavor that is more moderate than the average, and will remind individuals of an orange creamsicle. Just mix a packet with 4 to 6 ounces of water and one will…
Rebuild (Protein) / GX Supplements / http://www.go-gx.com The quality of proteins have increased considerably in the time since we started working out. GX Supplements’ Rebuild is a perfect example of this. This product does Rebuild, but it also builds considerable amounts of muscle mass. This is due to the inclusion of a wide array of protein sources, including whey protein, casein, and Waxy Maize. The inclusion of a 4:3 protein…
Labrada HICA-Max Muscle Growth Stimulator / Labrada Nutrition / http://www.labrada.com / http://www.labrada.com/moreinfo_hica.shtml It seems that there are only a few general classes of supplements that are used by those who bodybuild. I believe that Labrada’s HICA-Max is the first effort in making a new “must-have” for individuals that want to be the most jacked they can be. HICA-Max contains Leucic Acid, which is the way in which amateur and aspiring…
Body Form: High Energy Thermogenic / Better Body Sports / http://www.betterbodysports.com Body Form comes in three flavors – Cherry Limeade, Pineapple Breeze, and Orange Blast. The energy that Body Form provides to those that take it is based off of Green Tea extract, Guarana, Synephrine and Octopamine. Octopamine is structurally related to norephinephrine, and works alongside the aforementioned compounds to grant individuals with long-lasting energy. Body Form is more desirable than…
Swole Turbo Shred / Thermogenic Energy Formula / http://www.swolesports.com The sheer amount of energy that is provided by the Turbo Shred far outstrips other products in the category; I believe that this is due to Swole’s unique formulation of the product. Beginning with Chromium, which keeps blood sugar levels steady, the SHRED energy matrix will keep individuals energized through the next 4-6 hours. Rather than immediately fall off, the Turbo…
There are a number of different fish oils on the market. Few of them are able to provide a high quality source for the different types of oils that one needs, but the Axis Labs Citrus Omega is able to do just that. There is no fishy flavor to this supplement, and one will be pleasantly surprised at the mild Citrus flavor that the pills do have. The softgels are…
This effort by VPX may just be the best protein that we have reviewed for NeuFutur. The chocolate flavoring tastes like a liquefied chocolate bar, while its overall miscibility is unparalleled. While one typically will have to deal with protein chunks in their shaker, each drink made with VPX Protein Rush! is silky smooth. One will be able to pound these in work, at the gym, or any time that…
There has been indisputable evidence that EFA (essential fatty acids) should be added to the diet of anyone that is in the least concerned about their overall health. Max Muscle has an EFA-containing product in their Max EFA. This supplement contains Flaxseed, Wheat Germ, CLA, EPO, and Borage Seed Oils; each bottle of the Max EFA will give individuals a month’s work of supplementation. There is nothing in the…
Sthenos is the first company that we have reviewed that has been able to make a hoodie that has fit our female health and fitness reviewer. Most products are cheap and use traditional sorts of measurements to determine their sizes. As she is a powerlifter, the overall muscle mass that she possesses makes it physically impossible for her to get a hoodie on. The Sthenos Driven hoodie has extra…
We reviewed PreSurge Unleashed last year, but were provided with a bottle of their Citrus Ice. I believe that this allows us to have a better appreciation for what this pre-workout can do, especially since we have covered a number of similar products in the interim. The amount of energy that is provided by the PreSurge Unleashed is substantial, but at no point does this energy transfer into jitteriness…
It is hard for an individual to move from the all-in-one vitamins to the supplements that they actually need; a company like Paradise Herbs has tens of different products in stock. For those uninitiated, L-Carnosine is a neuropeptide that both decreases the amount of oxidative stress as well as protects the body from aging. There is also early evidence that properly supplementing with L-Carnosine will decrease some of the…
Physique Enhancing Science is a newer supplement company, and this means that they are able to benefit more directly from current research than firms that have been around. This is particularly present in their Alpha-T2, a fat burning supplement. Alpha-T2 is not your average fat burner; the 1-2-3 punch of Higenamine, Rauwolscine HCl, and 3,3′-diiodo-l-thyronine is unmatched in the rest of the supplement world. Rauwolscine is a compound that…
