If anyone’s thinking of a Christmas gift for family or friends, a box (or three!) of Enduraderm is a great idea! The key bioactive ingredients are perfect as we head into Summer (for those in the Southern Hemisphere that is):

1. GliSODin helps protect skin cells from UV damage and addresses pigmentation, uneven skin tone, irritation and inflammation.
2. HKL-137 helps retain hyaluronic acid in the skin (no need for HA topicals, this does a far better job!), keeping the skin hydrated and plump.
3. Collagen peptides help to reduce wrinkling and dehydration in the skin, and promote strong, healthy hair and nails.

Plus natural food-derived ingredients from Camu Camu which is high in Vit C, Bamboo fibre for healthy gut function, and Carrot juice concentrate, rich in beta-carotene.

WE LOVE this product! 💥

US Researchers uncover that it's not just dietary fibre that helps prevent constipation. In a study that included 95,000 participants, the researchers found that a diet rich in plant foods and unprocessed sources of fat protected against constipation in ageing adults, independent of the effects of dietary fibre.

"Conclusion: Our findings suggest that dietary patterns emphasizing plant-based foods and healthy fats may protect against constipation, informing future dietary interventions and treatments for chronic constipation"

People "In the know" may not need more research to prove what they already know, but sometimes it helps to have a reminder :)

If you live in a hot climate or get outdoors to exercise or work, pay close attention, as staying hydrated is important for more than just muscle and kidney function according to authors of a recent study.

The researchers found a rather strong and surprising link between hydration status and stress hormone or cortisol levels. They found that those people who drank less than 1.5 litres of water daily, released 50% more cortisol, in response to stress, than those that had adequate water intake. The researchers noted that this contributed to feelings of anxiety for the participants.

It's not just about stress, as long term dehydration is correlated with poor health including a increased risk of developing kidney stones (ouch!).

So, if you want to look and feel your best, make sure to consume plenty of fresh, pure water. Your body and mind will thank you for it!

Not drinking enough water could intensify stress responses. Researchers found that under-hydrated individuals had cortisol levels more than 50% higher during stressful situations. Poor hydration didn’t make participants feel thirstier, but it did trigger biological signs of strain. Keeping a water...

If you have been led to believe that nuts are not a healthy food, think again!

Nuts are among the most nutrient-dense foods available. A 30-gram handful of cashews, for example, can provide the entire adult daily requirement for magnesium - in conjunction with a plethora of other nutrients. Magnesium is vital for optimal heart health, muscle and cognitive function.

Many of us avoid eating nuts, for fear that they are 'fattening'. The science tells us otherwise, of course, when consuming them in moderation. And they are very satisfying to the appetite.

If you've been avoiding them, maybe time to reconsider adding a handful of raw nuts daily!

Don't limit yourself to cashews. Hazelnuts, Brazils, Pecans, Walnuts, Almonds and Macadamia nuts are all good😃

Irritable bowel syndrome affects between 4% to 11% of all people. It can be debilitating and leads to a loss of quality of life.

A recent study from the University of Michigan provides evidence that supports the adoption of the Mediterranean Diet for IBS sufferers. In the randomised controlled trial, the Low FODMAP diet and Mediterranean diet were directly compared to see what offered the most symptom relief for suffers of IBS.

This study looked at the degree to which the diets reduced IBS induced abdominal pain intensity symptoms by 30%. This is an FDA standard endpoint.

They found that 81% of those on the FODMAP diet met this endpoint and 73% of those on the Mediterranean diet me this endpoint. Both diets worked very well, in this regard.

Whilst the FODMAP diet was more effective, it is restrictive and typically, quite hard to follow.

It is reassuring to know that the Mediterranean diet has a documented benefit to those with IBS, in addition to all of it's other well-documented benefits. So, eat like a Mediterranean and enjoy the flavours, conviviality and the better health that follows 😀

In a comparative pilot study, the Mediterranean diet and the low FODMAP diet both provided relief for patients with IBS.
