Up Your Winter Hydration Game With @VitaCocoZA Natural #CoconutWater

Hi Guys,

Most of us are pretty diligent about staying hydrated in the hot summer months especially when we exercise and enjoy fun in the sun. But did you know that getting dehydrated in winter can happen just as quickly as in warmer weather? And more often than not winter is the time we let our guard down when it comes to hydration, as our bodies’ thirst response is reduced, fooling it into thinking that it’s properly hydrated.

One delicious hydration solution that will see you through colder winter months is Vita Coco 100% Natural Coconut Water. Based on one single ingredient – fresh, natural coconut water from young, green coconuts - Vita Coco is bursting with naturally occurring potassium and essential electrolytes.

Staying hydrated with coconut water during winter has many health and beauty benefits and can contribute towards helping the following:

Lowering blood pressure
Lower weather temperatures can often lead to hypertension, due to blood vessels narrowing, but thanks to its electrolyte content, coconut water can help in regulating blood pressure.

Decrease colds and flu

By preserving your body’s precious fluid levels, you can assist in keeping infection at bay. Winter is synonymous with drier air, which can quickly rob your body of fluids, making you feel tired, weak and more susceptible to sickness. By regularly hydrating with coconut water, your body is better able to fend off these illnesses.

Skin care solved
Your skin often bears the brunt of winter with hash winds robbing it of protective lipids and indoor heating drying it out. By failing to stay hydrated, your skin will look tired and those tell-tale signs of dark circles under your eyes can often appear. So to help counteract this, up your fluid intake to improve and maintain your body’s circulation of nutrients and oxygen to give your skin an irresistible radiance. Coconut water is a great skin hydration solution, as it moisturises it from the inside out.

Keep the winter kilograms at bay

Your body needs ample fluids to break down fats and convert it to energy. Added to this, if you don’t drink enough fluids in winter, your body will quickly hold on to every drop, retaining fluids and making the numbers on the scale go up a notch. Thanks to its zero fat content, coconut water won’t wreck your diet and will also eliminate unnecessary cravings by making you feel fuller after drinking it. Also, because coconut water is an isotonic drink, it provides a great pick-me-up before, during or after exercise - spelling success for your winter workout. Don’t forget to keep hydrated even during those winter months!

Vita Coco is available in Woolworths, Pick n Pay and Spar stores nationwide, as well as independent retailers, lifestyle and fitness centres. It retails from R24.95 for the 330ml and R54.95 for the 1 Litre.

#Kiwifruit Finds Amazing New Avatars To Enhance Your Fruit Bowl! @Zespri_ZA #BeatTheBestBox

Hi Guys, 

Zespri Kiwifruit are one of the most exciting fruit found on our shelves today and can be used in a variety of new and exciting ways from smoothies to wraps, salsa to sorbet. And because they are low in calories, they are perfect to eat as part of a meal or on their own.

“Traditionally kiwifruit were found lingering (?) At the bottom of the fruit bowl or on the top of a pavlova,” says Lianne Jones, Zespri’s Business Development Manager for Africa, Israel and Indian Islands, “but these days their versatility means they can be used in pretty much anything.”

In addition to this, they are one of the most nutrient-dense fruits around. Bite for bite they beat most other fruit on nutritional content and are full of vitamins, antioxidants, minerals and other essential elements. 

“Apart from their unique refreshing and tangy flavor,” continues Jones, “they are also a great source of potassium, are rich in fibre and can significantly slow down and reduce the uptake of sugar in your bloodstream meaning they are also a great low-GI food.”

Product Review - Jawbone Up24 @Jawbone #UP24 #SouthAfrica

Hi Guys,

Fitness bands have captured the markets worldwide and so many companies are now making them but the difference remains in terms of how good and intelligent are their smartphones apps which can process the data collected through the fitness band. 

I fell in love with Jawbone bands when they launched it a few years ago and always wanted to own the same. The time came when Takealot.com had a discounted scheme on one of the old version bands names Jawbone Up24 whereas UP3 was the latest one in the market. I bought the same and thought of trying the same out. 

I reviewed Fitbit Charge HR and this was the moment to try out the other competitions in the fitness band market. I loved Fitbit Charge HR for it's abilities but then I fell in love with the Smart Coach which is a feature in Jawbone app for smartphones as it processes the data collected via the app and gives your personalized advises and motivational messages to carry on. 
Jawbone Up24 has a 2.5mm jack hidden underneath the Jawbone branded cover on one end of the band. The band can be worn simply by sliding on your wrist and is available in three sizes. The package contains the charging cable with a female jack and USB to charge it via your laptop etc. The battery life on UP24 was nearly 14 days which is the best part about this band as you have to charge it twice every month. 

Jawbone bands looks like a fashion band and no one will know that its measuring your steps, sleep and many other things. The data is synced automatically to the smartphone app as soon as you have internet and bluetooth both ON. The UP Coach will send some personalized notifications based on previous days data at the start of the day when you open the JawboneUP app on your smartphone. 

Jawbone UP24 is splash proof and can take a little bit of rain etc but can't be fully submerged in water as the main mechanism/technology hidden inside a thin sheet of rubber will rust. You do have to really take care of the band to not wet it. 
Being an old model, you have to press the power button to enable the sleep mode so as to track your sleep pattern. The app will then give you exact time when you slept and how many times you were awake along with light and sound sleep and many other splendid information about you. I missed the altimeter which can track as to how many stairs you have taken on this Jawbone UP24. 

Jawbone App can be linked to several other famous apps and also IFTTT has some recipes for the same to post your notifications across your social media channels. Using the app, you can also track several other features like food intake, water intake etc. 

Jawbone UP24 remained on my left hand for nearly 3 months, in which it gave me enough insights into my lifestyle. Though during that time, it developed an air bubble on the bottom part of the band and the only button it has fell off by itself. Considering those I had to ask for returns from Takealot and they gladly did the same.

But as I am using the other brand's fitness band, I am missing the "Smart Coach" which is simply the best across all the apps I have used or come across. It really makes it interesting and gives your real insights into your lifestyle. I would love to have a UP3 or UP4 to get the same insights and with several new features including Pay feature in latest band UP4.

Note: The images are taken from http://www.amazon.com/Jawbone-Activity-Tracker-Discontinued-Manufacturer/dp/B00GQB1JES as the images I took I am unable to find them at the moment.

@LGSouthAfrica Air Conditioners - Does Children Room Need One?

Hi Guys,

Ever contemplated if you should install an air-conditioning unit in your children’s room? LG Air conditioners offer you the ideal air-conditioning for energy efficiency, perfect health care with powerful cooling and heating solution, all while operating in complete silence.

Babies, particularly new-borns, can't adjust their body temperature as well as adults. This makes them vulnerable to overheating and heat-related illnesses such as heat rash, dehydration, heat exhaustion or heatstroke. Some experts say that a properly cooled and ventilated room helps your baby to sleep comfortably and reduces the risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).

The most comfortable airflow for the human body can be found in nature. After analysis, LG has applied the scientific Chaos theory to its air conditioners to effectively reproduce a natural breeze. The Chaos technology recreates the flow of natural air by controlling the angle speed and movement of the air vane. It also minimizes the temperature difference between high and low areas in the room, creating a more comfortably conditioned environment your family. The powerful plasma lonizer protects you from odors and harmful substances in the air with over 3 million ions to sterilize not only the air passing through the air conditioner, but also surrounding surfaces for a safer, cleaner environment. With all these wonderful features, there is nothing to worry about as LG Air-conditioning units is the perfect accessory for every modern household.
LG Artcool Inverter V AC - TheLife'sWay
With an extension on the warranty for its residential air conditioners’ (RACs) inverter compressor to a full 10 years. A respected leader in the global air conditioning market, LG has long prided itself on its innovative inverter compressor technology. The extension of the warranty reflects the confidence that LG has in the reliability of its top-of-the-line residential air conditioners.

The advanced inverter compressor allows LG’s air conditioners to provide consumers with a highly energy efficient, powerful cooling performance all while operating at near complete silence. The advanced inverter compressor has the ability to control cooling output, allowing the air conditioner to reduce household electricity usage. LG’s inverter compressor makes it easy for consumers to cut their monthly energy bills.

LG offers innovative residential air conditioners that are reliable, stylish and easy to operate. Explore all of LG’s home Air-conditioning and enjoy a comfortable space, even during the hottest days of the year. Check out www.facebook.com/LGSouthAfrica

United We Walk - @JacarandaFM Spring Walk 2015 @Discovery_SA

Hi Guys,

A record number of people took to the Pretoria National Botanical Gardens for the Discovery Jacaranda FM Spring Walk 2015. Pretoria’s favourite family walk saw many smiling faces in their Jacaranda FM colours complete their 5, 8 and 15km walk. It's always great to walk and enjoy it with your friends and families. 
Growing from 10000 walkers at the inaugural Discovery Jacaranda FM Spring Walk in 2012 to the 15000 participants this 2015 event hosted with aplomb.
Jacaranda FM General Manager, Kevin Fine, elated by the success of Saturday’s event said “Seeing the Discovery Jacaranda FM Spring Walk grow to what it is today is testament to the Jacaranda FM listener’s enthusiasm to be a part of the Jacaranda family and we are grateful to the public for making the event the resounding success it was.”
The theme for this year’s walk was ‘United We Walk’ and walkers came out in large numbers to enjoy the serenity of the Pretoria National Botanical Gardens. The day concluded with one of South Africa’s favourites, Kurt Darren, who kept the crowd entertained as everyone soaked up the last bits Spring Walk 2015 and Jacaranda City had to offer.
Keep Walking daily to have a great health and buy a fitness band if you want to track the steps and calories burnt. This will help you to keep you motivated as well as a reminder to carry on walking. 

Cheers!!!

NutriBullet helps you Implement your Resolutions


Hi Guys,

January is already over and so is the holiday season. It’s a complete full three months of work before you can look out for Easter eggs. You’ve set out your New Year’s resolutions earlier before the start of the year; you’ve made your plans – now you need to implement them. Look no further than the revolutionary new NutriBullet, which is taking nutrition to a whole new level and helping people world-wide commit to healthy living. With over 14 million units sold globally, the NutriBullet is the must-have superfood nutrition extractor that’s super-easy to use and super-easy to clean. But best of all, unlike ordinary juicers and blenders that trap all the beneficial fruit and veggie fibre in their blades, the NutriBullet liquifies everything – meaning your NutriBlast superdrink is packed with nutrients.
There are no complicated recipes to follow – the basis of the NutriBlast smoothie is ½ greens, ½ fruits and 2-4 tablespoons of ‘booster food’ such as nuts or seeds. You can switch and swap ingredients, depending on the results you want from your NutriBlast – whether it’s a good night’s sleep, lower cholesterol, an energy boost, a youthful blast, or stronger bones.
This legendary gadget is not just a tool that saves you time in the kitchen when preparing nutritious meals. As we get older, we don’t chew our food well enough to derive all the benefits. We also have fewer digestive enzymes, meaning we aren’t getting the best from our food – even if we are eating healthily.

With the NutriBullet, you can make super-smoothies that pulverise all the most beneficial parts of your favourite fruits and vegetables, without making your digestive system work too hard to absorb all the goodness. If your goal is to follow a healthy, balanced diet this year, make sure to include a daily NutriBlast in your eating plan.

Here are a few favourite recipes to get you started:

The Beauty Blast
Reclaim your youthful glow with this delicious blend.
·         2 handfuls swiss chard
·         ½ cup pineapple
·         ½ cup strawberries
·         1 tbs goji berries
·         12 cashews
Fill to the max line with spring water.
Extract and enjoy!!

 

The Skinny Blast

Looking to shed some weight?  Try this tasty treat for breakfast-on-the-go!
·         2 handfuls spinach
·         1 banana
·         1/8 cup pumpkin seeds
·         1 orange (peeled)
·         1 carrot
·         1-2 tbsp hemp seeds
Fill to the max line with water or almond milk.
Extract and enjoy!!

Cholesterol Crusher Blast

Reduce cholesterol the natural way with this tasty concoction!
·         2 handfuls kale
·         1 cup blueberries
·         ½ banana
·         1/3 cup cooked oatmeal
·         10 almonds
·         2 tbs raw cacao
Fill to the max line with spring or coconut water.
Extract and enjoy!!

@FrysFamily Vegetarian Event @ Capsicum Culinary Studio, Johannesburg

Hi Guys,

Recently, I was invited to experience something I always wanted to learn. It was an introduction session to cooking Fry's Family products by Chef Candice-Lee Clark. The evening included an interactive cooking session instructed by the Chef along with enjoying the scrumptious vegetarian meals, we prepared using Fry's range of products.
Here is the amazing Veg Chicken-Style Burgers served to all the invitees. They tasted amazingly good with a slice of pineapple over a bun and Fry's Meat Free Burgers.
The venue for this event was Capsicum Culinary Studio in Johannesburg which is also in 5 other locations namely Durban, Cape Town, Pretoria and others.Follow them on twitter, facebook & instagram.
The Chef Candice-Lee taking all of us through some of the best cooking sessions and lessons for life. We were all given the same amount of ingredients and instructions to cook and present our dishes.
Here is my first dish made using Fry's Cruspy Prawns cooked in Coconut curry, Chick peas along with some rice and wrap.
The second round was to make salad using all the veggies available along with Fry's Chicken Style Strips. I used avocado to make the DOME and won a party for me and my 9 friends fully sponsored by the Fry's at my own house. They also gifted us with amazing range of Fry's products to make them at home along with a Fry's recipe book.

I really loved the amazing session and learnt a lot to cook Fry's food in the fastest possible time. Follow them on instagram, twitter, facebook, Pinterest, and website.

Hi Guys,

It’s summer time which means healthy living, outdoor activities and easy meals.

NutriBullet extractor has just won a coveted Fairlady Consumer Award because of its revolutionary, easy-to-use and ultra-effective design along with being a great kitchen appliance which is changing the way health-conscious people eat.

The prestigious Fairlady Consumer Awards recognize the best household goods of the year – and serve as a valuable guide to consumers who want more bang for their buck. Ranked according to both efficacy and price, the products are rigorously tested by a panel of respected judges. NutriBullet emerged as the clear winner in the Best Small Electrical Appliance (Handheld and Countertop) category.

Local A-List celebrities such as style maven Bonang ‘B’ Matheba, radio personality Poppy Ntshongwana and rugby stars Pierre Spies and Jan Serfontein, have also discovered the winning NutriBullet revolution.

Perhaps it’s time you do too… After all, being healthy doesn’t mean being boring! You can choose from hundreds of innovative and simple recipes, including energy drinks, breakfast smoothies, snacks, daily diets and even morning remedies after a big night out. The list of easy blends grows daily as converts submit their tasty creations online. Find them at www.NutriBullet.co.za/recipes.
With its 600-watt electric motor, the NutriBullet makes it super-quick to boost your nutrition intake. The patented stainless steel blades and unique cyclonic blending action shred, crack, grind and break down tough seeds, stems and skins from unprocessed food. The end result is a raw, smooth, health-packed superdrink that offers you the vitamins and nutrients the way nature intended. It’s so simple to use.

Maximise healthy summer days by purchasing your NutriBullet online for R 1995 incl. vat and free delivery at www.NutriBullet.co.za or call 0861 777 997. Check their interactive Facebook community for weekly special offers, recipes, competitions, promotions and special offers here: www.facebook.com/NutriBulletSouthAfrica Follow them on Twitter: @NutribulletSA

It looks costly at first thought when you compare it with your hand blenders from thousands of other brands but the price is right if you care about getting the highest level of nutrition from your food. It is indeed a revolutionary product which you can carry on your trips this summer and stay healthy. 

Cheers!!!
