Cytoplan food supplements

 

Looking for something to help buck you up over the next few months? There's a lot about. Apart from COVID there are the usual coughs, colds and sniffles. There are also some areas in the UK that have suffered what people are describing as "the cold from hell."

What can we do to help boost our own body's immune systems to make sure that our body is in fighting fit shape to battle off bugs and the like? Cytoplan, as its name implies, does have a plan. A plan that can help your body cope better.

There's the Cytoplan Omega 3 Vegan, which doesn't use seafood, but Marine Algae to produce capsules that are rich in DHA and EPA.

And it's not just vegans and vegetarians who will be able to benefit from Cytoplan Omega 3. Now people with a shellfish allergy can take Omega 3 and benefit from it without fear of it triggering their allergy.

Looking for something to offer your immune system some support? The Cytoplan Immunovite Immune Support is ideal. 

It contains Beta 1-3, 1-6 Glucan and Vitamin C, Selenium and Zinc, all of which are known to contribute to the normal and healthy operation of your body's immune system. It also helps protect cells from oxidation stress.

Looking for a general multivitamin and mineral supplement? Then Cytoplan Wholefood Multi Multivitamin and Mineral capsules are of great benefit.

There are a total of 23 different vitamins and minerals contained within these capsules, all primed to help your body and its immune system cope with what life hurls at you!

And it's good for vegans, too.

For those of you looking for a Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 supplement, then Cytoplan have got you covered, too.

Vitamin D is essential for ensuring your body's blood calcium levels are good and to assist in the maintenance of normal bones, plus normal teeth and normal muscle functioning, too. 

And it also helps make sure that the immune system is operating properly and also works to help cell division.

Vitamin K2 helps maintain a healthy heart and healthy bones, plus is thought to stop the deposits of calcium in parts of the body where it is not welcome, such as blood vessels, arteries and organs.

Cytoplan does remind people that this particular and rather special supplement is recommended for short-term use as it is of high potency. They also advise that if you are taking an anticoagulation medication like warfarin, that you must consult with your Doctor or specialist before you do so.

You can learn more about Cytoplan and their wide range of other products by visiting their website at https://www.cytoplan.co.uk/.

You can purchase Cytoplan products direct from them. 

Incidentally, Cytoplan is an acknowledged pioneering expert in the field of Wholefood and Food State supplements in the UK and has been for the 30 years.

They also supply some products aimed at helping keep your pet healthy, too.

Manifesto "Give the Gift of Beauty"

 

Manifesto has a slogan that fits perfectly well for our modern, bustling life: "Give the gift of beauty."

How does Manifesto help you to make sure this happens? They produce some extremely good gummies in the form of Hair, Skin and Nail Vitamin Gummies.

The gummies contain a wide range of very carefully selected ingredients, but the key ingredients are biotin and astaxanthin powder, as well as inulin, sodium selenite, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Vitamin A, purple carrot juice and acai berry extract.

What are they for? They are designed to help you with your nails, your hair and your skin.

Many of us have been through the mill this last couple of years. Long COVID has laid many of us low and the effects for many include weak nails and problems with hair and skin.

So what better than Manifesto's Hair, Skin and Nail Vitamin Gummies to help you to get your hair, skin and nails back to how you want them to be?

It is a specially targeted formula which,  Manifesto points out, is "super-charged" with all natural ingredients.

Mince meat pies with real meat?

Whilst doing some research I found a very interesting YouTube channel which has many interesting recipes on it. Including one with an original 18th Century mince meat pie recipe which contains real meat.

Yes. That's correct. Real meat. It's actually why mince meat pies are still called mince meat pies because they all originally had meat in their recipes!

 

The channel called Townsends and the video is titled "Christmas Mince Pie - 18th Century Cooking with Jas. Townsend and Son S3E5" and we see Ivy and Jon hard at work in the kitchen.

The channel is aimed at Children, but they welcome all foodies to sign up and join in the foodie fun!

Atomy Colorfood Vitamin C

One of the first scientists to deeply research the benefits of consuming Vitamin C was Nobel Prize winning chemist and biochemist Linus C. Pauling.

Vitamin C was first identified as being the cure for the potentially fatal disease call scurvy, caused by Vitamin C deficiency. 

It is also known to be important in helping the body to fight off infections and to treat infections once established in the human body. Unlike most animals humans  cannot manufacture Vitamin C, so humans rely entirely on their diet for Vitamin C, including Vitamin C supplements. 

However, it must be realised that Atomy Colorfood Vitamin C is not just a standard Vitamin C supplement. It is designed specifically to ensure that you are helped to follow the 5 a day guidelines that health experts are promoting as vital to our continued good health.

As well as containing vitamin C, Atomy Colorfood Vitamin C also contains concentrated mango powder, freeze dried strawberries, pumpkin extract powder, mandarin extract powder, pomegranate extract powder, collagen from fish, extract of chicory powder, Phellinus linteus powder (it's a type of mushroom), turmeric extract powder and CoQ10.

It provides people with (on average) 556% of their daily value for vitamin C.

Vitamin C is a highly valued antioxidant and it can neutralise harmful and potentially dangerous free radicals know for having the potential to cause damage to our cell walls.

Atomy Colorfood Vitamin C is available in a powderised form which can be mixed with water. It has a rather pleasant sweet and sour mango flavour and the recommended intake is one packet every day.

Price to members is £17.00 per box of 90.

You need to get Inside Out

Inside Out is a drink that tastes great but also has benefits, too.

Almost everyone has been there. A mission to just pop out for one, or maybe two drinks can turn into a marathon session and you are paying for it the next day with a monstrous hangover.

And we then feel guilty as we reach for painkillers and try to sort ourselves out by detoxing, promising never to be so silly ever again. But by then detoxing probably will not be of much help.

But this is where Inside Out can step in to be of assistance. 

Their Plant and Berry based drink is filled full of special antioxidants bespoke designed to help support a healthy liver. 

They describe it as their "drink before you drink" and point out that it will dramatically reduce your hangover.

Another plus point in this radical drink's favour is that it only has 29 calories per can. What are the ingredients? Water, hibiscus flower infusion, cranberry juice concentrate, natural goji extract, stevia, milk thistle, potassium sorbate and green tea extract.

How doe they taste? Absolutely delicious!

I'll have to confess when I tried them I wasn't expecting a hangover or even in the midst of one, but I was feeling below par. I was suffering from the aftereffects of long COVID and an unrelated sinus infection when I thought "In for a penny, in for a pound!" and tried Inside Out.

Did Inside Out help me? Yes, I think it did, as making sure your body is functioning as well as it can is a surefire way of helping it to detox which is, of course, a key way to get yourself feeling 100% again.

You can by them still or sparkling. Six 250ml cans cost £17.99 for still or sparkling. You can buy them direct at https://insideoutdrinks.co.uk/.

They are also looking for wholesale dealers or retailers to stock Inside Out, so if you would like bulk discounts, please get in touch with them.

Clear Lemon Meringue Pie

Probably everyone reading this post has made or at least eaten a lemon meringue pie.

However, I saw something on the Internet that intrigued me yesterday evening. A transparent lemon meringue pie.

I have done some research into the idea and have found that there are several websites and YouTube channels where people demonstrate their culinary skills and prowess by showing how transparent lemon meringue pies can be made.

I have decided to share several of these YouTube videos to see which one you like best.

I have every intention of having a go at this rather neat idea myself. What about you? Do you fancy having a bash at this yourself? It'll be a lot of fun!
