Genuine Health Launches New Supplement with Lion’s Mane Mushroom

The company has introduced a new natural daily solution for improved focus, stress resistance, and brain health support: Clear Focus with Lion’s Mane Mushroom.
Research from the University of California, Irvine found that the average office worker focuses on a single task for just three minutes. While shocking, improving attention span is possible even when inundated with modern distractions. Genuine Health’s Clear Focus provides natural support without a mid-day crash, unlike caffeine which is often used as a stimulant to aid in concentration.

“From professional endeavours to family matters, staying focused and present is incredibly important in so many facets of life. That is why we are excited to launch Clear Focus and provide daily support for concentration, stress management, and overall brain health,” said Genuine Health Holistic Nutritionist, Andrea Sarjeant. “Featuring the powerful Lion’s Mane Mushroom, this is a potent combination of natural ingredients that are studied and proven to improve cognitive performance.”

The newest addition to Genuine Health’s line of daily wellness supplements combines several ingredients that set Clear Focus apart from other supplements on the market.

Lion’s Mane Mushroom has been well studied and proven to support brain health and improve cognitive performance. Studies show that Lion’s Mane Mushroom can stimulate growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), two compounds that play an important role in brain plasticity, the production of new cells, and the strengthening of existing ones.

Green Tea extract and L-Theanine work synergistically to support calm focus, attention, and memory, while nootropic and adaptogen Red Ginseng improve learning, memory, focus and resistance to stress. The included B-Vitamin complex supports mitochondrial health while it helps break down homocysteine, a chemical amino acid known to cause brain degeneration.

Google New guidelines for Virtual & Delivery-Only Food Business

0

 

Google laid out new, more specific guidelines to help the virtual food brands and delivery-only businesses with their Business Profiles on Google. These guidelines are meant for food businesses that don’t really have a physical location in an area, but they do re-package and deliver food.

The guidelines can be found in Google’s Guidelines for representing your business on Google, under the section Guidelines for chains, departments & individual practitioners.

Here’s a look at what these new guidelines have to say:

Virtual food brands 

 Virtual food brands are permitted with conditions. 

 Co-located food brands offering pick-up

  • Food brands that are co-located each must have permanent separate signage. They should display their address only if they offer pick-up to all customers.
    • Delivery-only brands (no-pick up option) out of shared kitchens must hide their address and add service areas to that specific brand to avoid confusing their customers.

 Delivery-only food brands

  • Delivery-only brands (i.e. those operating out of virtual kitchens) are permitted if they have distinct branded packaging and a distinct website.
  • Multiple virtual brands operating out of one location are permitted, but are subject to additional verification steps.
  • Delivery-only brands must add their service areas and hide the address on their business profile to avoid confusing their customers.
  • If there is a partnership where a food brand has authorized the virtual kitchen as a verified provider of the food, the virtual kitchen may manage each authorized brand’s business profile once the authorization is confirmed.
  • The facility that houses the delivery-only brands, i.e. Doordash Kitchens, is permitted to have its own separate business profile. Only someone affiliated with the facility can claim and verify this profile.

If you are in the virtual food business, it is in your best interest to take a look at the new guidelines so that you can create a business profile on Google that isn’t suspended.

COSMAX NBT debuts Zeta Probiotics technology claiming 1,000× higher intestinal survival

0

 

COSMAX Group has succeeded in developing and commercializing a technology that dramatically increased the intestinal survival rate of lactic acid bacteria.

COSMAX NBT (CEO Yoon Won-il), one of affiliates for food supplement business in COSMAX Group, announced that it has developed and commercialized “Zeta ProbioticsTM” technology that increases probiotics’ intestinal survival rate and adhesion ability.

Zeta probiotics(TM) : Probiotics cell recovery

Zeta ProbioticsTM is the technology that improves the intestinal survival rate of probiotics by 1000 times compared to freeze-dried strains when passing the gastrointestinal tract.

Normally, probiotics products are distributed in freeze-dried conditions to increase the expiry date. Probiotics have damaged cell walls during freeze-drying. For this reason, consumers are taking probiotics which have lower vitality and survival rate.

In order for probiotics to function in the intestines such as immune control, the intestinal survival rate and adhesion ability must be high. A dietary supplement industry regards probiotics reactivation technology as the key to increase a survival rate.

Accordingly, COSMAX NBT has developed the technology that can reactivate probiotics in a short time. Zeta ProbioticsTM, developed by COSMAX NBT, is the technology that revitalizes freeze-dried lactic acid bacteria in a state similar to probiotics. Probiotics were added to water with reactivation substances to increase the intestinal survival and adhesion. The intestinal adhesion capacity increased 66.7% compared to the freeze-dried strains.

Yoon Won-il, CEO of COSMAX NBT, said, “In the health functional food market, probiotics are showing a rapid increase every year,” adding, “Aligned with the market growth, COSMAX NBT will steadily improve probiotics technology.”

Meanwhile, according to Mordor Intelligence, the U.S. probiotics market is expected to reach 13.5% by 2027 It is expected to record a growth rate (CAGR). In particular, after the COVID-19 pandemic, probiotics sales increased by 33% as consumers’ interest in health increased.

Dr. Bill Rawls Announces Launch of Cellular Wellness Conversation Series

Dr. Bill Rawls, the Medical Director for online holistic health company Vital Plan, announced today the launch of a conversation series that will count down to the June 21st release of his new book: The Cellular Wellness Solution: Tap Into Your Full Health Potential with the Science-Backed Power of Herbs.
“The sheer amount of conflicting health information that people are being bombarded with is overwhelming, but the key point is actually very simple: wellness starts at the cellular level,” said Dr. Rawls. “I wrote The Cellular Wellness Solution to highlight the critical role our cells play in supporting optimal health, and our need to emphasize maintaining our cellular wellness as long as we can to keep living healthy lives as we age.”

The first topic in the Cellular Wellness Solution Conversation Series: “A Sneak Peak at The Cellular Wellness Solution” will be offered at 8PM ET/ 5PM PT on Wednesday, June 15, 2022. This first event will feature Dr. Rawls in conversation with Tim Yarborough of Vital Plan and sign-up is free to all attendees. This webinar will:

• Demystify the science and explains in plain English how our cells function, age, and deteriorate;
• Explain how maintaining cellular wellness allows you to slow down the aging process – and increase your energy so you feel better, and even look younger;
Show how to get off the hamster wheel of health fads and harness the natural cleansing and restorative powers of your own cells;
• Help viewers understand the healing and restorative properties found in herbs – properties confirmed by the most up to date science and discoveries;
Provide easy-to-follow natural solutions and steps we can take to protect our own cells – and our health.

“Our entire healthcare system has gravitated towards prescribing drugs to treat and block underlying symptoms, while not giving people options to take control of their own health,” said Rawls. “While prescription drugs are not long-term solutions, the unique properties of herbs promote healing at the cellular level, giving them a unique power to reduce the incidence of all chronic illnesses, slow aging, and boost performance.”
