Puritan's Pride

It’s that time of year where the seasons are changing, families are gathering, and germs are spreading. Even down here in Texas we’ve been having some colder temperatures. At the first sign of the sniffles we get bombarded with questions about taking vitamin C or echinacea, or just taking our vitamins in general! Although we’re a homeschooling family we are definitely not secluded from the risk of being exposed to germs. In fact, many times we’re out and about – right where the germs are! This year, though, I’m going into cold and flu season prepared thanks to Puritan’s Pride.

Immortal Energy {Review}

November 18, 2013 by Emilee Evans


Disclosure: I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers. All opinions are 100% mine.

Immortal Energy

With a name like Immortal Energy you have to be curious, right? I know I was! Having chronic fatigue anything that can boost my energy piques my interest. Unfortunately, ingredients aren’t always ideal, and the effects aren’t exactly what I need. Drinks or pills meant to increase energy quickly that give that burst of energy can cause me to crash hard after. What I need is that extra push to keep me going and help me focus. I need something without side effects.
For my review I received 12 pills which typically lasts 3-4 days. It is recommended to take 3-4 capsules as needed or as directed by a health care professional. If you’re not a fan of swallowing capsules, they can also be dissolved in warm water as a tea or added to a smoothie. I took them as as-is, though. Because my energy has been particularly low I opted to take 4 capsules the first day to get the most out of them (and because I always fear because of my chronic fatigue I will need the maximum recommended amount), and I was pleasantly surprised! I didn’t feel hyped up or jittery, but I did feel more alert and awake. I was better able to focus and get more done!
Immortal Energy consists of natural ingredients: deer antler, astragalus, ginseng, gogi, and schizandra and are in a Vegetarian capsule. Want to know a little more about these ingredients?
DEER ANTLER (LU RONG)
Deer antler is widely used in Asia (and now throughout the world) to strengthen adrenal, reproductive and brain functions. It is mainly used as a rejuvenating agent. Short term use is believed to quickly build strength and power, while consistent long-term use is believed to re-build deep life force, preserve youthfulness and to enhance longevity.
Deer antler extract provides minerals, amino acids, and other nutrients including the insulin-like growth factor IGF-1.
Clinical trials have shown that IGF-1 may:
Enhance immune functions
Increase muscular strength and endurance
Possess anti-inflammatory properties
Possess growth-stimulating properties
Help regulate low and high blood pressure
Help promote sounder, more refreshing sleep
Improve eyesight, including night vision
Help reduce cholesterol and triglycerides
IGF-1 is also an important supplement for people interested in reducing the signs of aging and for those people interested in living the longest, healthiest, and most active life possible.
ASTRAGALUS (HUANG QI)
For centuries people have used astragalus root to enhance strength and regulate metabolism. The herb has only recently gained popularity among herbalists and practitioners of alternative medicine in the West. Chinese medicine uses astragalus root to enhance the body’s energy, known as “qi.” Astragalus root is a mild diuretic, and it can help to reduce perspiration as well. In traditional Chinese Medicine, all of these uses are attributed to the ability of astragalus root to replenish “qi,” so a person who is ill can regain strength and immunity. Astragalus root has also been shown to protect the adrenal cortex, the gland that produces hormones related to stress. It may also help allergy sufferers by strengthening the immune system’s response to allergens in the environment.
GINSENG (REN SHEN)
Ginseng is used for improving thinking, concentration, memory, work efficiency, physical stamina, and athletic endurance which have a significant impact on our energy levels.
GOJI (GOU QI ZI)
The nutritional and medicinal benefits of goji berries are legendary. Goji berries are very high in antioxidants and have great anti-inflammatory properties.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine goji is used as a blood and immune system tonic. It supports vision, is a mood elevator, and is known as “the happy fruit.” One of the most famous herbs in Asia to promote beautiful skin. It can improve memory and increase libido.
SCHIZANDRA (WU WEI ZI)
Schizandra is known as the five-flavor fruit; it has each of the five flavors (sweet, spicy, sour, salty, and acidic). It’s one of the most famous herbs used in Chinese medicine. This herb is considered to be one of the premium mind tonics of herbalism. It is used to sharpen concentration, improve memory, and increase alertness. Yet, unlike caffeine-like stimulants, schizandra does not produce nervousness when increasing energy. In fact, some people consider schizandra mildly “calming” while producing wakefulness and improved focus.
How is that for an effective line-up? For me, everything that Immortal Energy offers is important. It contains natural ingredients, doesn’t contain the side-effects of caffeinated energy drinks and pills, and it offers a combination of various herbs with multiple benefits. As this is a busy season, I need to be on top of things and be able to push through my fatigue without feeling jittery and crashing afterwards! Immortal Energy is definitely a good fit for my needs!

Symbiotics Colostrum Plus Review

September 16, 2013 by Emilee Evans


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
imageI was very intrigued by Symbiotics Colostrum Plus. Colostrum Plus helps support your immune system naturally. I personally knew the benefit of colostrum for babies but had no idea this kind of supplement was available!
I have also been learning more and more about the importance of the digestion system when it comes to immunity. It’s really important to keep things in check not only for a better overall well being but for your immunity as well.
I could definitely use more support on both accounts, so I was ready to give it a try. I appreciate that they use natural ingredients. It’s not uncommon to feel good about trying a new supplement just to find out it has synthetic ingredients. So I could enjoy the nice wild cherry taste of the chewables I received without worry! The kids like them, too!
I have been using the Colostrum Plus Chewables for a few weeks and have noticed a difference in my digestion system health for sure. I overall have just been feeling better as well. So it is definitely something I could continue as part of my daily routine! Just chew two tablets twice a day on an empty stomach. I take them when I first woke up and before I go to sleep.
Overall, I’m really happy with Symbiotics Colostrum Plus Chewables. I would recommend them for everyone because everybody can benefit from a boost in their immunity and healthy digestive system.

Joey’s Antler Velvet Review

BuckPower sent a bottle of Deer Antler Velvet for my husband Joey to review. As you may know, he is a 2x cancer survivor and has a few health issues related to the chemotherapy. Not only was the strength and recovery appealing, but the many other benefits as well! One of the notes that was most intriguing is that it has been used in Chinese Medicine to strengthen your immune system and for cardiovascular health and function. Those are two areas that have been affected as well as his joints, strength, and ability to recover after workouts.
Here is what Joey had to say after using BuckPower Antler Velvet for 2 weeks:
When I first started taking BuckPower Antler Velvet, I started noticing a change around day 4. After my workout at 6:30am I still had energy and I wasn’t sore. That alone is a big deal for me being that I had cancer twice and have a “resume” of medical issues. I also noticed a difference in my joint recovery. You see, I have to have nerve blocks and they do them in my elbows. I just had my fourth one, and I expected a few week recovery. The nerve block didn’t go to well, and I had a lot of pain afterwards. Yet, I recovered faster than any other ones that I have had done. Overall, the biggest difference is the energy I have in the mornings.
BuckPower is giving 10 bucks off to try their product and find out what pro athletes already know – deer antler velvet can keep you in the game longer. They are also continuing the savings by offering free shipping! The coupon code for the $10 off is “UNSCAMME” which will need to be applied at check-out. This is valid only for U.S. domestic orders. Order now!
