Coral Mine: What it Is + How To Best Use it

March 6, 2017 · Leave a Comment

REVIEW + GUIDE: Coral Mine for calorie-free Calcium


No beauty product beats drinking water daily for better skin, hair, weight maintenance & health. But many bottled, tap, soft & hard waters lack necessary trace minerals. Using Coral Mine in your daily drinking water adds back natural elemental calcium in your daily water intake. Like Restorative Spa Waters, Coral Mine’s high mineral content supports optimal beauty & health with only your tap water. It also provides a no-calorie way to get more Calcium.

WHAT IS CORAL MINE?

Coral-Mine is a natural product made of deep-sea coral (scleractinias) collected in the Sea of Japan, near the islands of Okinawa and Tokunoshima.

Coral-Mine comes in sachets that are small enough to fit into your water bottle or daily water drinking container to infuse it with essential minerals such as Calcium and Magnesium.

WHAT DOES CORAL-MINE DO?

Coral-Mine contains Calcium and Magnesium amongst other trace minerals. These minerals are often lacking in treated drinking water.

Various spas offer restorative waters from local springs for drinking and bathing. These waters are beneficial because they contain high concentrations of various trace minerals.

Coral-Mine helps add minerals directly to your water.

Coral-Mine Supplement Information

Coral-Mine Supplement Information

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CORAL-MINE?

Easy to absorb Calcium, Magnesium, aided by the freshest form of Vitamin C, L.Ascorbic, support numerous body systems including:

  • skin
  • hair
  • nails
  • bones
  • brain

Calcium is necessary to keep bones healthy and maintain good posture.

ALKALINE BALANCE

Coral also normalizes the functions of all bodily organs and systems by regulating mineral balance in water to restore the alkaline balance within the body.

Alkaline is important within the body because most germs and inflammation function best in a high acidic environment, but when the alkaline and acid within the body are balanced, the body can better fight inflammation and maintain a healthy immune system.

CORAL-MINE EVIDENCE

What evidence is there of that deep-sea coral (scleractinias) has benefits?

Scientists studied why the life expectancy of people living near the Okinawa and Tokunoshima islands was much higher than the rest of Japan. Japan’s life expectancy is 82.

People living on the two islands lived 10-15 years longer than the rest of Japan with no discernable habits or pre-existing factors that were a variable from the rest of the population.

The only difference was the deep-sea coral content of their drinking water.

Coral-Mine uses this same coral in their sachets to infuse your water and get the same health and beauty benefits.

HOW TO BEST USE CORAL-MINE

  1. Add one sachet to up to 1.5 liters of water and allow it to absorb for five minutes.
  2. The process is very similar to how a tea bag infuses water to create a tea.
  3. Drink this water through the day.
  4. A sachet may also be added to a water bottle for on-the-go water drinking.
  5. Water with a Coral-Mine sachet in it can be consumed directly or it can be used for making tea or other water based beverages.
  6. Less water may be used for a higher mineral content, such as if you are recovering from a sports injury or attempting to reduce inflammation after exercise during a rigorous gym workout

The Experience

We found no difference in the waters’ taste, color or odor with a Coral-Mine sachet. .

The water pitcher we used is a 1.2-liter size, and that worked fine for us. There was no staining, white film, or water spots left on the glass container from using the Coral-Mine.

What are the benefits of CORAL-MINE?

Coral Mine for Easy to Swallow Calcium

Coral-Mine is easier to take than a Calcium supplement, and it doesn’t alter the taste of your water.

Coral supplements are often hard, chalky, big and difficult to swallow.

If you are unable to take Calcium or Coral supplements due to difficulty swallowing large pills, Coral-Mine may be an effective solution.

CORAL-MINE & THE DELICATE pH BALANCE OF OUR BODIES

Ph Balance relates to the levels of alkaline versus acidity in our bodies. Most people have too much acidic, which results in inflammation and irritation to the body.

The minerals in Coral-Mine balances out this delicate pH balance of acid and alkaline.

A balanced pH is necessary for all systems, including keeping our skin clean, healthy and hydrated.

Coral-Mine is:

  • Gluten-free
  • Wheat-free
  • Dairy-free
  • Soy-free

CORAL-MINE CONCLUSION

Daily water drinking is vital for health and beauty. Coral-Mine is a quick and easy way to compensate for the essential trace minerals often lacking in our drinking water.

A sachet of Coral-Mine in a pitcher of water does not add any:

  • color
  • odor
  • taste
  • texture

Water just tastes clean and fresh. Coral-Mine is an effective way to get the daily dose of Calcium your body needs to:

  • make longer stronger nails
  • healthy bones
  • good posture
  • keep our blood and brains in peak condition

Summary of Coral Mine: How To Get Calorie Free Calcium In Your Water

Many women lack Calcium within their diet, Coral-Mine is a healthy no-calorie was to get more Calcium. Coral-Mine is like a Restorative Spa Water you can drink anytime without traveling to a spa!

Claren Books: Fostering a Creative Community for Writers & Good Books for Readers

March 3, 2017 · 2 Comments

A leisurely soak in the tub or a rainy afternoon spent at a coffee house isn’t complete without a good book. On the lookout for your next literary find? Then check out Claren Books, Independent Publisher & a second-generation book company that fosters a creative community for writers.

Claren Books is not an ordinary publishing house. They are professional and detail-oriented, not cookie-cutter corporate. Friendly, but not folksy. My favorite part of this independent publishing company is that they foster a unique creative environment for authors, resulting in better books for their readers. The Claren Books creative community is open to all writers, not just their own.

As many of you are both avid readers and potential authors, we’d like to tell you about what Claren Books has to offer and give an overview of a few of their latest releases.

ABOUT CLAREN BOOKS

Claren Books publishes a select number of books a year. They are primarily fiction works, but some non-fiction as well. What can Claren Books offer you the reader? Or you the writer? Here’s a brief overview of both.

For Authors

Are you interested in writing novels or novellas? Claren Books is accepting submissions and has three unique benefits for writers. The first two are:

  1. Loads of advice, tantamount to a candid pre-submission how-to guide, to ensure that a manuscript is indeed ready for an editor to read.
  2. Claren Books gives frequent practical and constructive writing tips on the Claren Books Facebook and Twitter direct from their own Editor, Sarah Doebereiner (@SarahDoeberiner). Many lone authors fail without a mentor or peers. Many women have difficulty finding a mentor in their field. But with resources like these, you, aspiring solo authors, have the inspiration and indirect guidance needed to improve your writing.

MORE ABOUT CLAREN BOOKS PRE-SUBMISSION ADVICE

Read their concise, sound advice found within the FAQ and Submission sections of the Claren Books website that is tailored to potential authors who want to submit their work to be published.  Think your novel is finally ready? Well, maybe it is, maybe it isn’t. It probably isn’t.

The thing is, many enthusiastic writers are, in all likelihood, not ready to submit their work. It doesn’t always have to do with how intriguing a story they are capable of writing.  Claren Books points out many of the potential pitfalls that can entrap otherwise excellent authors-to-be.

For example:

  • Are there are basic formatting or technical issues within the document?
  • Has someone given a true critical proofing to the manuscript, or have only loved ones read the work?  Before considering an official submission, it must be read by an impartial,  knowledgeable third party, and then, once again, the author must endure the painful process of implementing edits and rewrites.
  • Is there a compelling cover page and synopsis?

As Claren Books points out, these are all necessary to the process. Once your work is submitted, it is too late to revise these make or break components, and an author must capture an editor’s interest quickly on that crucial first impression.

The reward for such strenuous pre-submission efforts is a good one. It is the third unique offering Claren Books has for their authors: a highly generous 50% payout on net receipts and a $1000 advance.

We respect that Claren Books, as a Publisher, freely offers these online resources to all authors in order help them to write well and they make sure their authors get paid fairly.

Claren Books is a second-generation book company and a member of the Independent Book Publisher’s Association. Publisher Bill Adler (@billadler) is an author himself and a former literary agent who’s represented numerous bestsellers.

WHAT DOES CLARENS BOOKS HAVE FOR READERS?

What about the reader? Claren Books offers fictional novels and novellas ranging from thrillers to a How-to book for telling a fairy tale to kids.

Not much of a reader these days? With all the streaming video content available, it’s easy to get out of the habit. Claren Books had the ingenious idea of “The Binge-Watching Cure”: an upcoming anthology of short stories of increasing length designed to get the reader to fall in love with reading once again.

Want to see specific examples of recent Claren Books offerings? For Read an eBook Week 2017, StyleChicks will be featuring a synopsis of several Claren Books from various genres; you’ll be sure to find your next good read!

Health: CBDPure 600 mg Organic Hemp Oil

February 27, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Hemp is becoming a popular ingredient in recipes and supplements. But it is crucial to get a quality formula like CBDPure 600 mg Organic Hemp Oil.

So let’s get one thing out of the way first: if you are considering taking any supplement, talk to your doctor. Also, don’t self-diagnose a problem, as it could be something more serious.

BENEFITS OF HEMP OIL

That said, a superior formula of Hemp Oil has many health benefits. Hemp Oil isn’t a psychotropic substance, and you won’t get high off of it. If you are a regular peruser of GOOP recipes, you know that Hemp Milk is quite popular, and contains many nutrients that promote health. The same holds true for Hemp Oil. It is high in Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. It is also high in Vitamins A, E, and D.

CBDPure’s website has several testimonials from people who found that aches and pains went away when they started using the product. While Hemp Oil is available without a prescription in the United States, many other countries recognize it as a medicine for pain, rather than a supplement, which is how it is recognized in the USA. It will be interesting to see if Hemp Oil achieves the same medicine status in the United States at some point.

MY EXPERIENCE WITH CBDPURE

TASTE:

CBDPure 600 mg Organic Hemp Oil has a slightly nutty flavor that kind of reminds me of walnuts.

HOW TO TAKE CDBPURE ORGANIC HEMP OIL:

The dosage per use is one mL (about 1/2 a dropper full). It is taken twice a day. It can be taken more as needed, but twice a day will meet your Omega needs, even if you do not otherwise consume fish or fish products.

You take it orally, putting it under the tongue and holding it there for about 60 seconds, and then swallowing it. The nutty flavor makes it extremely tolerable, a far tastier way to get nutrients than from Fish Oil! There is no unpleasant aftertaste.

Suggested use for CBDPure 600 mg Organic Hemp Oil

OUR TAKE

CBDPure 600 mg Organic Hemp Oil is a high-grade hemp oil that can offer benefits to body, hair, brain and skin. Ideal for those who may lack necessary the essential Omegas due to dietary choices or restrictions, Hemp Oil can meet this health supplement need in a tasty, easy to take form. Perfect for those who have difficulty swallowing pills, taking Hemp Oil under the tongue is easy and pleasant tasting with no aftertaste.

Talk to your doctor about this great supplement to see if it is the right way for you to get necessary nutrients to function optimally!

Show off Pearly White Teeth with a Sterline Sonic Power Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush

February 23, 2017 · 1 Comment

Outside of a dental office, nothing makes your teeth feel as clean or look as bright as an Electric Toothbrush. The Sterline Sonic Power Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush with UV Sanitizer has loads of features & bonuses for healthy gums & whiter teeth, and it’s today’s Lighting Deal at Amazon

WHAT MAKES THE STERLINE SONIC POWER ELECTRIC TOOTHBRUSH SPECIAL?

There are a few Electric toothbrushes on the market, but they do not come with the many features of the Sterline Sonic Power Electric Toothbrush or have the Sterline’s excellent price point. Even if a UV Sanitizer is available for some models, it is sold separately at a price often higher than this entire set, and these other sanitizer s are not conveniently included right within the charging base. This Sterline Toothbrush also comes with twelve toothbrush head refills. These two features alone make the regular price of $59 a great deal, and the Lighting Deal price of $39.99 is exceptional.

But what is also particularly notable about this set is the toothbrush features itself including four cleansing modes and whitening brush heads.

The Sterline Sonic Toothbrush with UV Sanitizer charging base. How clever!

The Sterline Sonic Power Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush comes with a UV Sanitizer in the charging base. How clever!

THE STERLINE TOOTHBRUSH

The Sterline Sonic Power Electric Toothbrush works at 40,000 sonic power brush strokes per minute, removing twice the plaque that a traditional toothbrush can. Teeth feel SO smooth and clean! This level of brush strokes per minute is ideal: enough to tackle plaque and gingivitis, but it doesn’t vibrate so fast that it hurts sensitive teeth or wears away at tooth enamel.

FOUR CLEANSING MODES
Select from 4 brushing modes: clean, soft, whiten, and massage. These four mode choices are a feature I particularly like since many electric toothbrushes do not address sensitive teeth or gum needs. The modes are:

  • Clean is for regular, twice a day cleaning of your teeth
  • Soft is intended for cleaning sensitive teeth and gums
  • Whiten cleanses teeth while polishing and whitening
  • Massage is a pulsating mode that gently stimulates the gums. I like this feature since most electric toothbrushes do not adequately address gum care, an essential part of your overall dental health.

2-MINUTE AUTO TIMER: The built-in timer indicates the start of four 30-second intervals to know when it is time to brush the next section of teeth for optimal, even brushing. This feature is important, as the American Dental Association recommends brushing for two minutes, but surveys indicate the average brushing time of most people remains below this recommendation.

THE BRUSH HEADS

The brush heads are made of Dupont Bristles which gently polish off surface stains. As a coffee and tea drinker, I like this feature. The heads are designed to conform to the contours of teeth to best reach the tiny crevices and contours that a traditional toothbrush cannot.

I like that this set comes with twelve heads since the replacement head costs can be a sneaky hidden cost often forgotten about when selecting an electric toothbrush, making it a more expensive investment than expected. That is not the case with this toothbrush set.

toothbrushheads

The Sterline Sonic Toothbrush, UV Sanitizer Charging Base and 12 Replacement Brush Heads comes with a two-year warranty. Get it for $39.99

UV Sanitizer Charging Base

Since a Sonic Toothbrush lasts much longer than conventional toothbrushes, the UV sanitizer in the charging base is an important feature to keep the toothbrush free of germs and bacteria. The UV sanitizer is proven 99.9% effective against:

  • E.Coli
  • Candida Albicans
  • Salmonella
  • H. Simplex

It’s also 96.8% effective against H1N1.

The charging base helps reduce the spread of germs in your home, a superior feature to traditional toothbrushes that can harbor germs. The built-in UV sanitizer sanitizes the brush heads in only ten 10 minutes.

HOW TO USE THE UV SANITIZER

1. Shake off any excess water from the toothbrush.
2. Place the toothbrush heads on the sanitizer stand with the bristles facing the UV lamp.
3. Close the cover; the UV Sanitizer will glow blue
4. When the sanitizing is done, the Sanitizer will turn itself off

PACKAGE CONTENTS

  • Sonic Power Toothbrush Handle (with battery)
  • UV Sanitizer Charging Base
  • 12 Replacement Brush Heads in a variety of colors
  • User Manual
  • 2-Year Warranty with Customer Service for any questions or issues

USE

Charge the toothbrush for 24 hours before the first use. One charge will last for about ten days. This feature is useful for being able to charge the toothbrush before traveling and not having to worry about packing the charger base.

CONCLUSION

This toothbrush system is loaded with product features often associated with more expensive electric toothbrush system sets. It also has several bonus features. The Sterline Sonic Power Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush with UV Sanitizer Charging Station can significantly improve the appearance of your smile and the health of your teeth, as well as reduce germs and viruses that can contaminate traditional toothbrushes.

Find The Sterline Sonic Power Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush with UV Sanitizer Charging Station, here https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M3X7WGA.

It is usually a $59.99 product, but now it is the Amazon lightning deal of $39.99!
