Stay refreshed and get AWAKE™!

Here in North Carolina it has been getting hot! For me, the warm weather and longer days usually mean staying up later to enjoy them! Unfortunately, they also mean being a bit more tired and lethargic in the morning. Not being a coffee person, I turn to Awake each morning to get me started. Not only do I love the taste, I feel better knowing that I'm drinking a caffeine free beverage, powered by amino acids and vitamins. I also really love the convenience. Like most people, I tend to be rushed in the morning before work so I just keep a few packets in my desk at work and in my purse and mix it up whenever I have a minute. With its light, fruit flavors, Awake is the perfect way to boost your energy on a hot summer day.

Get Awake and get energized today!

Scientific Workshop Supports DRI for EPA+DHA.

In June 2008, the Technical Committee on Dietary Lipids of the International Life Sciences Institute North America sponsored a 2-day workshop to review research data on eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acids for heart benefits, cancer, and cognitive decline. Previously in 2002, the Institute of Medicine concluded there was insufficient evidence available to define Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) for EPA and DHA. Since then, significant research data has emerged meriting a reassessment for DRI recommendations. The workshop concluded “consistent evidence from multiple research paradigms demonstrates a clear, inverse relationship between EPA+DHA intake and risk of fatal (and possibly nonfatal) coronary heart disease, providing evidence that supports a nutritionally achievable DRI for EPA+DHA between 250 and 500 mg/d.”

Researchers also note that evidence of beneficial effects of EPA+DHA for cognitive health is emerging. Epidemiological data suggests positive benefits from eating one fish meal per week on neurodegenerative diseases.

Make every night date night

If you are like most women you wear many hats throughout the day. Maybe you are a mother, a co-worker, a wife, housekeeper, personal chef, sister, friend or chauffer. By the end of the day all you can think about is sleep. The activities, stress and emotion from the day can be overwhelming. For many women, the responsibilities of daily life impact their libido. Having too little sexual desire is the most common sexual issue among women, reported by 10 to 51 percent surveyed in various countries, and affecting an estimated 30 to 45 million women in the United States.
