Antidote - Cold Press Juice

“The only antidote to the magic of images is the magic of words.”
 - Camille Paglia

To think of it in the mildest terms, an antidote is a remedy that relieves. Well if you’ve had the good fortune to experience this Antidote, then you’ll know the remedy is good, delicious and refreshing! I was fortunate to get a taste of the Antidote line of cold pressed juices. I have to say that I was very impressed with the juices on all counts. Great well balanced ‘real’ taste, fresh, refreshing and so much variety!
Antidote is a new cold-pressed organic juice range based around "carefully calculated" nutrients,
and is positioned as a "cure" to an unhealthy lifestyle. Each juice has it's own core function.


I am a huge fan of cold pressed juices actually, and this market segment seems to be exploding. A virtual flood of cold pressed juices has hit the market of late, much to the delight of thirsty customers. Count me among them since I am eternally charmed by the concept. The concept of "all the goodness in a bottle" does tempt as days get very busy sometimes and one tends to neglect oneself. Also, if there are kids around, it feels good to offer them organic, clean, pesticide free ‘healthy’ juices. And if the juices are delicious to the last drop too, then you’re in business! 
Antidote seems to have nailed just that!

  As you can see, there are many varieties of juice cleanse and six pack to accommodate different people and purposes ..

Their six packs are designed for those who want to enjoy the benefits of raw, cold-pressed juices and nutmilks by having them as meal replacements or a supplement to their diets. Each pack serves a different purpose, helping you to achieve different goals.

I'd picked the weight loss pack!
As for people who know me are aware that i'd gave birth last december, so initially i am trying this pack to shed off my "kangaroo bag" and those fats i gained during my pregnancy, in order to resume back my original size and weight. #prayhard

Weight loss pack contains ..
Mont Eden - Body Detox . Victoria Fall - Skin Food . Mont Blanc - Anti-Inflammation .
Grand Canyon - Fat Burner . Mt Fuji - Skin Hydration . Mt Everest - Live Detox

No preservatives, no added sugars and only organic produce make them one of the popular choices in these days.
The cost might be high, but then organic produce does come with a hefty price tag. That doesn’t deter the brand from its ever growing loyalty base.
I can’t wait to try one of their plans after which maybe I can tell you if it worked it’s magic on me or not, but I can definitely sing praises of the quality, the product packaging, the label information, the seamless delivery and of course the fresh delicious taste. Even full veg type of cold pressed juice was good to the last drop.

  
While the jury will always be out as to whether cold pressed juices vs fruit eaten whole is the right way to go, I am no expert or nutritionist. I just know that I find cold pressed juices a good refreshing option!

IZUMIO

Hi! You, yes you! Reading this post? You're lucky!
Introducing this voted to be Japan's No.1 product - Izumio Hydrogen Water
You must read on to know how good it is ..

IZUMIO is a delicious tasting high quality natural water infused with hydrogen. Izumio contains water from the serene countryside of Japan, which is the source of hydrogen that provides antioxidant benefits. Izumio is basically water. But not just normal water. Izumio has the highest levels of hydrogen packed in a 4 layer vacuum packets of 200ml each.  Thoroughly researched by the head scientist Shigeo Ohta Ph.D, a co-author of one of the first studies published on the antioxidative benefits of hydrogen, Izomio has become a household name in hydrogenized water in the Japanese market.
Many calls them "water medicine" or "miracle water" because that's really what it is, because it can treat a lot of things. There are a lot of research done on how hydrogen can act as antioxidant and can help to prevent cell damage and inflammation.


"Hydrogen is the smallest atom in the world that can penetrate your cells at a mitochondrial level and has strong anti-oxidant properties, eliminating free radicals within your body at enormous rates."
 
What is Antioxidation?
As ironic as it sounds, oxygen is an essential element that is needed for sustaining all life, but just like anything else, too much of it can be a bad thing. Oxygen is one of the most damaging and deteriorating elements that cause free radicals to develop in the human body. Free radicals are the damaged tissues, cells, or molecules resulting from oxidation.
Rust is the deteriorating result of a chemical reaction in which iron bonds with oxygen through oxidation. Our bodies, with age, deteriorate and corrode just like any metal that is exposed too long to the elements.
The deterioration is due in part to the oxidation of substances or tissues in our bodies. Antioxidants help by taking the extra oxygen from our bodies, combining them with another element to be safely absorbed or taken out of our bodies entirely, and preventing more free radical “problematic” cells from developing..

Do you know why cancer is so common now .. ?
Its because of all the free radicals in our bodies. We get them from stress, pollution, insufficient sleep (from watching too much tv or being on the computer too much due to work), nutritional insufficiency and just our way of life.


HOW HYDROGEN WORKS WITHIN THE BODY
1. Hydrogen is the smallest atom in the chemical chart making it perfect for accessing the deepest darkest parts of the body (mitochondrial cells) where others cannot reach. Every chromosome, amino acid and protein block in our bodies need Hydrogen to build good quality cells.
 2. Hydrogen is required by our bodies for organ function. We get it from the air, from water, from food. But less from food because when cooked, there is hardly any hydrogen left. Hydrogen from the air we breathe dissipates quickly. The body needs Hydrogen is ion form. Water is our best source of it.
 3. But now there is Hydrogen water - and Izumio has the HIGHEST Hydrogen levels in the world compared to any other Hydrogen product and the Miracle water from Lourdes, France, etc. It is proven that Hydrogen rich water is essential to building good, healthy cells and is also capable of balancing the pH within the body.
 4. Hydrogen is difficult to preserve within the body but without it, cells get weak and deteriorate, then high acidity is produced in your system. Thus Hydrogen has also a pH balancing effect on the body not turning acid into alkaline at all, but balancing the equilibrium of the body whilst flushing out acidic toxins through sweat and urine. In short, normal water has been helping us do this all our lives but Izumio is much, much stronger.
 5. Open Wounds - open wounds are acidic. When Hydrogen is applied onto them, it reverses the acidity slightly causing pain to lessen. It does not cure the wound but regenerates the new cells to a point of equilibrium.
 6. Back Pain and other Organs Pain - same concept where Hydrogen helps because our bone mass, body organs, muscles, they all need Hydrogen. It helps increase bone density too.
 7. Skin - Skin is made out of millions of cells but what ratio of cells do we have, good healthy cells or free radicals? Good cells produce smooth, supple skin. It all comes back to the theory of cellular structures and they all need Hydrogen
8. Cancer - Cancer is the result of too many free radicals in the body. Cells that have lost their electrons and gone around stealing goodness from other cells causing havoc and great imbalance within the body, a war of cells within. Hydrogen will strengthen the good army team and with sufficient Hydrogen, they will win the war.

How does Izumio benefit us?
Detoxification / Restore youthfulness / Ulcers & sores healing / Stronger & thicker hair / Reduction in blood pressure / Slows down free radical damage / Lower cholesterol levels / Improved allergies & asthma conditions / Better blood circulation / Lower saturated fat levels / Reduces cellulite & wrinkles / Improves memory in elderly / Boosts brain power / Improved constipation & diarrhea / Improved blood glucose 
 - -
A box of Izumio Hydrogen Water has 30 packets of 200 ml of highly concentrated hydrogen water at 2.6 mg/l or 2.6 ppm. You know the saying an apple a day keeps a doctor away? Well, today..you probably need to eat 10 or more apples to keep that doctor away! All the free radicals in our body is damaging it and we need to get rid of them as much as possible and this is what Izumio does. The high content of hydrogen does this. Like detox.

Lastly, Izumio is safe for babies, pregnant moms & adults.
 
How much is it?

I swear by this drink.
Yes it is expensive but there are ways to consume it cheaper.
Yes, not everyone can afford it but everyone should at least try to drink it and find ways to consume it I feel.
Like for me, for example, can I really afford to drink this?
Hello, I'm a SAHM with no fixed income. Obviously, I can't afford it.
But I want to drink it so much (because I know it is good for me and for my family)
I am willing to work for it, hence you see me sharing about it so much. So yes, you can do it too. Most important thing to note is that I don't share what is not right and what is not good. I am not going to harass you to try or buy this from me because I want to make some spare money. I am sharing because I know it is good for us to consume it, it will be good for our health why not? Sharing is caring! (:

Kippins x Charlisgram!

100% organic cotton has come a long way since I was a kid. 
There are lots of "Green" organic fiber options available now, for example, organic cotton, hemp, wool, alpaca, tencel and silk.  The reason these are considered "Green" is because they're not sprayed with harmful pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, and chemical fertilizers.  But today i would like to share about organic baby comforter. 

Oh well .. Charli sent me their popular organic baby comforter for my babygirl - Kippins!

 Design picked by Hermione's dad.

First, her dad's nickname - (monkey) so we got the Split Kippins!
Second, it's in striking yellow - which is good for my babygirl to look out for surroundings and her recognition!


Whats charli?
They are a small local start-up selling organic baby clothing for ages 0-4 years old, as well as toys and accessories.
They carry products from all across the globe and most of the brands you see are not available in other e-commerce or brick-and-mortar stores in Singapore!
Eg: Kippins, Maud N Lil, Sapling Child, Ollie Jones Clothing etc..

 Here's the 6 designs for the Kippins Organic Baby Comforter
Splits / Bam / Billie / Kitty / Coco / River / Dash

What's Kippins?  
Kippins modern organic cotton baby and toddler comforters are a tribe of best buds for cool babes, made for squeezing, hugging and good times - perfect for sleep and play.

They’re gentle on new skin and planet friendly, made from 100% organic cotton and hand printed using organic ink. Spots, dots and cracks are part of the fun and no two Kippins are exactly alike!

Inspired by nature, storybooks and a wild imagination, each Kippin has been designed with simple, graphic prints - a high contrast pattern that babies love!
 

Here's Maud n Lil's super adorable organic soft toys which many are looking for!
The special thing of the toy is, it's hand has a dummy clip, could hold up a pacifier of your child's - so you've no worries about them dropping off from their mouth! How amazing isn't it? .. And still, they do have comforters and rattle sticks available on site too!

 You may be wondering why organic cotton?
Simply because organic cotton is the grown without the use of toxic pesticides or fertilizers. This means that your babies will be protected from the harmful toxins, you don't have to be afraid that their skin will develop rashes or allergies. Not only does it protect the health of your babies (it is luxuriously soft and easy on sensitive skin), it also helps the environment.

The reasons why parents choose to go "green" when it comes to baby's clothing and toys.

  1. For the health of their baby.
  2. To support environmental changes. 
For the Health of their baby.  These parents feel that it's important to choose organic and natural products that come into direct contact with their baby skin. After all, clothing is next to their skin all night and day.  The fact is, much of what we place on our skin is absorbed into our bloodstream. Parents need to remember that babies put everything in their mouths to chew and suck therefore swallowing.  So whatever is in and on the material goes into their system.
The good news is that the skin acts a barrier and is able to metabolize chemicals that pass through the outer its layer.  However, that doesn’t mean that all chemicals are neutralized and some will undoubtedly make it into yours and your baby's bloodstream. Premature and low-birth-weight babies have a poorly developed stratum corneum (the very outer layer of skin), but they develop a competent barrier within 4 weeks after birth.  Some studies show as we age this barrier becomes better at filtering.  But we just don't know 100% how age comes into play when it comes to absorption rates.  And that's why I like to play it safe when it comes to babies and children because pound for pound they are most vulnerable to environmental toxins.  Plus like I said before... babies put everything in their mouths to chew or suck on.

Reasons to buy Organic Cotton Clothing, Bedding, and Toys for your Baby 
  
- Certified Organic Cotton uses only low-impact dyes, which contain no heavy metals and use less water in the dyeing process.
- Chemicals used in Conventional Cotton Crops contaminate groundwater systems. Growing Organic Cotton eliminates this type of contamination, therefore protecting and improving the quality of our water.
- Organic Cotton field workers are NOT exposed to toxic chemicals that endanger their health. (or the health of their children
- Organic Cotton Clothing is often associated with FAIR LABOR and/or FAIR TRADE practices. This ensures that all workers are paid a fair wage for their labor. No sweatshop clothing for our babies!
- Clothing made from Organic Cotton is softer and free of Formaldehyde, which is a chemical commonly used in the garment manufacturing industry.
- Babies are more vulnerable to toxic agents that come in contact with their skin and respiratory system. Therefore Organic Cotton Clothing is gentler on the skin and healthier for baby.
- No more worrying when babies play with organic cotton toys or chew on organic cotton teethers. They are not toxic!
- Supporting the Organic Cotton Industry helps to protect our children's future by reducing the levels of pollution on our planet.

 & yes, it became her bestfriend for now!
Especially it's the period where she always place her mittens into her mouth, and i've no worries for her to place that comforter into her mouth, because it's machine washable, safely-tested, & lastly, organic!

Some said “whether you are expecting your first child or starting from scratch, I believe a small, simple and considered capsule of clothing can be cost effective and long –lasting”. I couldn’t agree more, which is why i try to focus on only the essentials i need, made of pure organic goodness.  

Behind the scenes ..
 (it's really not easy to take good and proper photos of babies, thank god i manage to snap some.
You need tons of time & patience. Well done Hermione!)

 The peace of mind and good feeling of knowing that your baby is getting the best of the best and knowing that you are making the right choices to protect our environment too!
 After all, we just want the best for our child right? So, choose kippins!
