Turmeric Powder by Quiwi Foods

Holy healthy living. This is truly what I aspire to and I aspire to share healthy habits with my family as well. Quiwi Foods has made this endeavor that much easier with the Turmeric Powder they have so generously provided for this review.

First of all, this item is so affordable and the 1 lb package arrived flat and easier to store until you open it. It does have a resealable seal but you will want to store it in an air tight glass container once you open it as it so fresh and pungent. You will want to keep it that way as when you are ready to use it, you want it to be the same bright beautiful color as well so you will know you are getting the most antioxidant goodness you can get! Also, if you do not keep this item in an air tight container, it may affect other items next to it as it can affect the taste of other food items if not in an airtight container. It is that fresh and strong!

I bought a capsule maker machine awhile back and really do enjoy making my own ginger capsules and as well as kelp capsules. This was my first foray into combining ginger powder with turmeric powder. My goal is to cut down on my digestive enzymes during meals. Because this Turmeric Powder was so fine it was easy peasy to mix with ginger (which was the same grind) to make the capsules. The Turmeric Powder did become less powdery and a bit heavier in consistency as there is a high humidity in my South Florida kitchen when I made the capsules.

I have to be honest in that I do not like Turmeric Powder of any ilk in my food and I did not test this powder in my food either. I prefer to take the vegetable capsules which I make instead so I cannot tell you how it tasted in food.

I did not have any after burps with the capsules and I did not have any indigestion so I know this product was high grade and a very important item for my pantry!

Tumeric and curcumin have been shown to reduce inflammation, cure depression, increase serotonin levels in the brain, and prevent certain types of cancer. It is a distant "cousin" of the ginger plant. Why not? Make your own capsules today and save and enjoy holy health!

ClearVite by Apex From OVitaminPro.com

I could not wait to post this review because this is truly a product which I cannot stop singing its praises. My first adventure with this 21-day detox system was with the ClearVite chocolate flavor a year ago. This product is the same product but it is vanilla. The first time I used this product I have to say it was a challenge. There is a food guide which you need to adhere to. Also, the program is like a "ladder" meaning you increase the amount of scoops and then come back down with the amount of scoops as you near the 21-day mark.

I just finished my second go 'round with ClearVite a month ago. While the food program was so much easier (I had adopted the food plan in my daily life as I felt so much better eating the ClearVite way) this time, the vanilla was not as good as the chocolate. I know taste is preferential. I had an aftertaste with the vanilla. The chocolate was not sweet but it felt more like a milkshake even when mixed with the same amount of water.

For my program, my doctor again advised we deviate from the standard directions given with this product. As a result, I went through 1 1/2 containers as compared to just using 1 container. My protocol was:
Days 1-4,  one shake b4 breakfast.
Days 5-7, one shake b4 breakfast and one b4 dinner.
Days 8-14 one b4 breakfast lunch and dinner.
Days 15-17 one b4 breakfast one b4 dinner.
Day 18-21 one shake b4 breakfast.

One shake = 2 scoops.

I keep the containers as they are food safe and bright white (and I think beautiful!). I fill them with cookies at Christmastime and give as gifts. Why not?

The first 3 days of this detox I felt cranky as my body was eliminating toxins. Midway through I slept so good and I started having more energy. I had more time as well since no more coffee (decaf even) and no wine. I steamed veggies until I could steam no more and then during the no animal proteins I ate even more veggies and enjoyed quinoa as if it were caviar. Needless to say, I lost 8 lbs. and my skin and eyes were clearer (and still are).

ClearVite is a plan and not just a product. With the complexities of my health, I know this detox is a must do item every six months. I have learned that I do not drink enough water or take in enough fiber as during this plan I became constipated quite often (ewwww). I am a firm believer in disciplines in which we take a step back and slow down so that we can reset not only our bodies but our minds as well. And so the first 3 days were my reset days in which I realized that I often forget to take care of this temple God has given me.

I mean, we all get busy and stressed and forget to slow down. ClearVite is that "You Deserve It" product everyone should enjoy now and then. And you say, How can you enjoy a detox? Call me crazy but I do believe a detox is a discipline and in some way it is enjoyable after you are done. You look back at your hard work and realize you did something difficult and you did not give up.

Immuno PRP Spray by NuMedica from OVitaminPro.com

I recently reviewed Immuno PRP Powder by NuMedica. That product was a new find for me recommended by my doctor. Upon my recent wellness checkup, my doctor and I discussed me eliminating casein from my diet while I did the 21- day Clearvite Detox. I wondered if casein could be the culprit for some of my allergies such as runny nose in the morning (just after taking my Immuno PRP Powder. Immuno PRP Powder contains casein).

My doctor recommended this handy 5 oz. spray as it does not contain casein. I could not sing its praises more! My symptoms went away during my 21 day detox. However, I did eliminate all dairy products and whey also during those 21 days, so I knew I had to re-introduce casein after the 21 Day detox to see if casein was ever really an issue.

Immuno PRP Spray would give me some immune help but not as much as the powder. For this reason my doctor advised that if I began to have an autoimmune flareup I would need to not just take 4 sprays in the morning and at night, but also take 4 sprays in the afternoon until I felt better (I did have a flareup of a cold just after starting the spray, but I took my doctor's advise and felt much better in just two days time.)

I find the spray convenient and much easier to spray than scoop powder into water and mix. 

I am grateful to www.ovitaminpro.com as I did not realize I was supposed to spray into my mouth and wait 30 seconds before swallowing. Not sure of the benefit of doing this, but I will now wait 30 seconds before swallowing! 

I realized after comparing these two seemingly similar products that even with my doctor's help advising what I need and when, I still need to be educated about what I am putting into my body. Having the knowledge about the product allows me to question and learn more so that I can become an active participant with my doctor to achieve my best health ever.

I did contact NuMedica prior to posting this entry because I wanted to be accurate about my comparison of the powder and the spray. Unfortunately, I cannot say that the manufacturer was excited to inform me about the difference of both products. However, Mary from www.OVitaminPro.com put a call in to the manufacturer. I was quite comforted by this as www.OVitaminPro.com is my go to and a safe place for me to get accurate product information. They care! NuMedica is a cutting edge company and I am not knocking them at all, just a disappointed customer of their brand because I did not get the answers I had been seeking from them.

Mary and Dan are willing to go the long haul with the customer. Being a part of their organization as a customer and guest blogging for them makes me feel part of an exciting family of health conscious, forward thinking minds. I am so happy to be a part of an organization which has the passion and expertise to come alongside me in my wellness journey! I know I can go to them with any questions first before going to the manufacturer. I also know I will get my questions answered thoroughly. This is priceless!

NuMedica ImmunoG PRP from OvitaminPro.com

Perfect timing to review this truly wonderful product! Since flu season has officially arrived, I can confidently state that I have been empowered to stay healthy this winter thanks to my doctor! I was just diagnosed with autoimmune deficiency symptoms. I had been advised to take one scoop of NuMedica ImmunoG PRP in the morning with my breakfast and one in the evening with dinner. This is a product I will enjoy for life. It is as essential to my well being as clean water.

I had been getting Bronchitis every year and did not know why until now. My condition allows my body to get sick quickly because my body does not have a strong immune defense against stressors whether it be germs or environmental stressors.

When I asked my doctor about flu season, he smiled and said, "Take a scoop of ImmunoG PRP at lunch too until you feel the tiredness, sore throat and/or runny nose is gone!" No drugs or cough syrup for me! I can happily announce that this year I have not gotten Bronchitis or been home sick even one time.

In laywoman's terms, the reason this product is essential in my daily health regime is because my body needed (and always will since I have autoimmune deficiency symptoms) enhancement of immune activity which is achieved by promoting the production of cytokines. If you google IgG and cytokines you will get a better understanding of the value of this product for an autoimmune deficiency challenged person.

This product can be mixed into a smoothie or mixed in filtered water. I actually enjoy the taste of it now because I know I am taking good care of the body God gave me every time I drink it. I started to feel what my husband and I refer to as "the grip" a few weeks ago. I upped the ImmunoG PRP at lunch for 3 days and soon felt wonderful again!

This canister of  bulk powder comes with a scoop and you can add more or less depending on what your doctor advises. Of course because I am allergic to gluten, I had to have a gluten free product. ImmunoG PRP is pure bovine colostrum and contains milk. It is also hormone, antibiotic, and rBST free. It is low heat processed which means it is filled with goodness. 

Two ingredients I wish this manufacturer would lose are sugar and cholesterol. But, of course I do not know the scientific necessity of having sugar and cholesterol in this essential immune and cytokine system support so this fact does not factor into my review.

I saved the best for last! I enjoy a reward from www.OvitaminPro.com and save each month when I have 2 of these essential items shipped to me every month! I smile when I see the email from OvitaminPro arrive in my Inbox each month which says You've Been Rewarded!

The cost from OvitaminPro.com is the best I have found online and OvitaminPro.com picks up the tab for shipping. Icing on the gluten free cake is that this item usually ships within 1 business day. Convenience and savings I do not take for granted these days. 

I am blessed to have the guidance of my doctor but if you are currently not sure if this product is the best fit for your health regime, you can Ask Dr. Dan! Just click on the tab which says Ask Dr. Dan. Then click Ask A Question. How easy is that?! Happy Flu Season everyone!
