The difference in 3 months – Redox Signaling Molecules…

Summary

Well, I have to say other than my annoying cough, which may be due to detoxing or maybe just because its that time of the year, but other than that I have nothing to complain about. I generally feel great, I have energy, I get out of bed (which hasn’t always been the case), my pain levels are significantly reduced and my skin, scars feel the best they have.

Over the last three months, I can honestly say, these molecules have made a significant difference in my life. I have my life back. Not to sound melodramatic but some days with my pain and energy levels I was not enjoying life at all.

I will in my next post do a comparison of how I use to feel verse now but for the time being, if you interested below is the details of the last two weeks… enjoy.

(as normal, if you want a quick summary just read the highlighted areas)

 


WEEK 11


Friday 25 May

I went to the physio today, he’s really pleased with my progress and asked am I still taking that stuff 😁
He says I seem to be definitely improving, my chronic pain in my elbow isn’t chronic and the ligaments in my shoulder don’t seem to be so unstable or ‘stretchy’!
I am Coughing still.

Sat 26/ Sun 27 May
What a wet weekend. ☔️
Showers all weekend. One thing I’ve noticed I’m not getting my general aches and pains from the damp weather!
  • Arm pain level 6
  • Still, have this annoying cough
Other than that I’ve not really got anything to complain about 😀
Does: 
4×60 ml
gel applied 2x day
———-
Monday 28 May
Happy Monday!
  • Arm level 4 😃
  • Coughing still
  • My shoulder seems to be a bit sore today, not sure if it’s after my physio treatment?
  • Energy I feel-good level 4
  • Skin feels really smooth and clear today.
Does: 
4×60 ml
gel applied 2x day

Tuesday 29 May
I didn’t sleep much to start with last night, this damn cough is still hanging around.
Arm was a little sore today at work, more aching this time but pain around 6.
Energy level good, I feel good (except cough).

Wednesday 29 May
Pretty much the same as yesterday. My arm pain, around level 6 at work especially using computer a lot the last 3 days.
Feel good except this damn cough. I dread to think how bad it would have been if I’d not taken my molecules.

Thursday 31 May
Wow hardly any pain today Woo Hoo in my arm, around level 2 I think so so happy
Slept ok, even though I was coughing to start with.
I Did wake up late today with a bad head, but I think that’s from not drinking enough water, had a little nap in the arvo and was fine. Now off to a speed networking charity event 🤗
Does taken all week: 
4×60 ml
gel applied 2x day

WEEK 12


Friday 1 June

Hardly any pain again today WOO HOO!
Feel good and have great energy, even though I was out last night at the networking event. I’m pumped to get my work done.

Had an amazing night at the speed networking, met a great guy Paul, who is swimming the English Chanel for charity. It’s for a young guy who had an accident when he was over here in Australia. We did get talking about these molecules about how they can help with his energy, stamina and recovery for the swim!

Screen Shot 2018-06-08 at 3.26.04 pm.png
Dose: 
3x 60ml
Gel 2x application

Sat  2 June
The arm was really really sore last night it actually woke me up from the pain!
I applied the gel 3x in 5 minutes to give it a boost and it did help take the edge off.
Upped my dosage tp 4x 60ml again.

Sun 3 June
Wow what a day, been on my feet all day I am tired but I’m surprised how I’ve lasted, to be honest.
The arm is a bit sore again today around level – 7
This damn cough is still there but its definitely going.
I found out some very interesting information today about the possible cause of this cough!…..
or is it just a cough?
detox-fb-post

 


Mon 4 June
I feel awesome today I should be sore and tired for being on my feet all day yesterday but I’m not!!! Woo hoo
Arm pain level 5
No other issues 💃 I feel like dancing, dancing, dddddd dancing💃
Went to an info night this evening delivered from Sally Dymond. She was such an awesome speaker about these molecules.

Tues 5 th June
After the info night last and something Sally said about how these molecules had helped smooth and reduce her keloid scars.
I instantly thought of mine, and inspected them.

I’m actually really surprised and because it has been gradual –  how smooth and soft they are feeling, they are certainly less raised in comparison to the one on my left hand that healed two years ago from the same accident! So yeah I’m pretty chuffed, I am hoping the next hospital vist to the burns unit will say I can take off this pressure bandage off for good ( 3years and 4 months later!)

I will pluck up the courage to do my before and after photos of my scar.

It’s been quite an emotional journey with the healing process of these scars over the last 3 and a bit years and has affected me significantly emotionally and mentally. I know there are a lot of people out there with a lot worse scars that don’t bother them, but for some reason, it has, even if they are insignificant in comparison to some people.

Wednesday 6th June
I started to get ear pain today whilst at work. Hurting when I swallowed.
I have just sprayed the liquid molecules into me ear pain for a few minutes, and the pain has gone already! – maybe that’s due to the liquid in the ear? Time will tell…
UPDATE
Well so far so good. Just stood up and no ear pain 🙌
Pain levels

  • Arm 6
  • Shoulder 4
  • Aches from cold 2-3 – It’s  raining cats and dogs today!
I’ve been doing some more research today.
When I first started to drink these molecules I found the taste, to be honest, quite yucky.
I’ve been doing a bit of research and this may be why…
img_e063a70e5ab9-1.jpeg
Which is great news, because now I hardly find there is any taste 🌸🌿 maybe my body is getting more in balance 🧐

Thursday 7th June
All is good.
I don’t really have too much pain at the moment, the odd niggle in my back, shoulder, and arm, which is such a difference on how I use to be, especially in these colder days, I would be normally miserable as anything, plus doing anything I could to hibernate. But I’m not. I feel great!
 


 


Don’t know what I’m talking about – check out this post to reveal all…
Redox Signaling Molecule update - week 8

How I’m feeling at week 8

pain-scaleSummary Week 7-8

Week 7 has been my new “normal”, which is great, generally okay with the main issue being my arm pain. The pain has generally been moderate increasing throughout the day with overuse. But the best thing is that I have not needed to wear my support brace on my elbow!

Having said that to the end of the week and beginning of week 8, I’ve started to feel a little sick,🤒 I think my body is fighting something or possibly going through a detox stage.


Week 7

Friday 27 April
Starting to feel a little better today, not so many aches and pains which is excellent.

  • Arm around 7
  • Aches joints 5
  • Jaw still out of whack, I can tell especially when chewing food

I have started to get a sore lump under my left armpit which suggests to me I am fighting something. It’s usually a sign of enlargement of the lymph nodes caused by an infection. When I was a child, I have applied lots of the gel under my arm this evening to see how it helps.

Dose:
Drank – 4x60ml
Gel  2x applications on arm, scar, neck face and legs.


28 April Saturday
Omg had an awful night sleep 💤 late night, poor Rosie (my dog) had an upset stomach, so she was asking to go out all the time, then either the kittens or Rosie had an accident in the night, so I was cleaning 💩 up all night! 😭 So I woke up feeling extremely tired.

Last night I discovered a lump in my armpit, which seems less painful after putting that gel on, so that’s a positive. My throat feels a little sore, and I feel like I’ve got an ulcer also, damp germys.👾

  • Arm about 7
  • Shoulder 4

update – 11:36pm
Arm not too bad at the moment about 5-6.

Thought I’d see if any of my food allergies were any better tonight, one is white fish. Feel very bloated and windy, so 👎

Exciting news, mom said last night. “ I had the best night I’ve slept last night in🛏 a very long time, I can’t remember the last time I slept through!– She’s using the gel 2xday for cosmetic reasons! Started 9 April.

Now, most people would say you can’t assume it’s the gel working, and you would be correct but its very coincidental that my mum hasn’t slept well in a long time ( in her opinion) and the only thing she’s doing differently is applying the gel that contains the redox molecule.

You see these molecules, even applied to certain parts of your body, can still go to different parts of the body as it’s at the cellular level, it’s understood that the body uses them wherever it’s most needed. Just because you apply them to your face for example, if something more pressing is happening within the body they will go and fight that fight.


Sunday 29 April
Well, the lump under my arm has gone, 😃 I have a small ulcer in my mouth – defiantly have toxins coming out of me!

  • The arm is good today about 5
  • Shoulder 1
  • Generally feel ok 5
  • Energy good 4

Monday 30 April
Slept ok last night, I’m still waking up tired but once I’m up in good. I have the energy for the day and get on with things.

  • Tongue white?
  • My Arm – I didn’t wear brace again today, pain level around 5 this morning, up to about 6 in the evening.  I’m definitely noticed a difference it’s not hurting when I pick up my glass of water!💧
  • The enlarged Lymph node under my arm has gone
  • Skin a little dry again- noticed some flaking
  • Mum saw I had bruises on my leg Sunday. I’ve been applying the gel to them topically – I’m amazed how significantly the bruise had reduced in such a short time! (Bruise’s typically hung around for weeks on me)

I watched a video tonight by Dr Gary Samuelson, about the redox molecules and how this supplement is helping athletes and their endurance and recovery. It was quite surprising, especially when he worked with a 72 year old who couldn’t work-out for more than an hour at a time. Now she’s doing a 22 hours workout a week and enters Iron Man competitions and has won first in her age group!!!

Anyway, the point was they mentioned how much water we should drink, and it’s based on your weight, I’ll put the working below, but it’s primarily, for me, 2 litres of water. I think I drink more than that most days.

Workings
You need to drink 1/2 your weight in oz, plus 10%
So if you are 55kg:
55 kg x 2.2 = 121  lbs.
121 /2 = 60.5
+10%
= 66.55
2oz =60ml
30×66.55 = 1,996 litres


Tuesday, 1 May
Wow slept through my alarm this morning! It must have neem a deep sleep.

  • imageArm about 6 – throughout the day niggles but no way near as bad as it’s usually!!
  • Wow, (gross alert) I had a decent 💩 haven’t had one like that for a very long time ☺️
  • 😯😜Skin dry againBruise from Sunday almost gone!

 


Wednesday, May 2  

  • A headache all day today
  • I’m not wearing my brace anymore. I mean there is still a little pain but not enough for me to want or need my brace or pain relief – so excited 😆 👏image-1

I had the best compliment at work. You just look less “ puffy” I know exactly what she means. It’s as though my inflammation all in my body is reduced 😆


Thursday, May 3  

  • I woke up feeling sick this morning.😢
  • Pins and needles in my left arm, which usually means I have some nerve issues again. The neck feels stiff and can tell nerves are weird. Think I must have slept funny.
  • Arm level 5
  • A headache all day – gel helps on my neck and temples
  • Told I look very tired. I feel tired.
Update:
Wow, borderline migraine – gel relieves it a little bit at this rate I feel like it needs the whole tube and bottle!
One thing with these molecules they definitely get to work quick so hears hoping it’s gone tomorrow.


Week 8

Friday 4 Mayhead-pain
Well, I did get my wish, head and neck are still causing me some problems. Did rub the gel on my neck a few times in the night which relived the pain a little, but I have a feeling I would need to apply it constantly at the moment. I do wonder where the molecules are being used, although saying that my arm I have hardly noticed any pain. It’s at the moment about 3-4 has been around 6 earlier.

Overall I feel tired and very heavy, pretty much how I use to feel.

Wishing the manic molecules work tomorrow 😊


Saturday 5 May
And she’s back…
OMG, what a difference, in how I feel.  I’ve got my energy back I feel happy my😃 brain🧠 is active my arm is not too bad, I feel alive again.image-2

Update: Been doing a little work on my computer tonight, so the arm is now around 7.


Monday 7th May

Feeling tired this morning, but it has started to get cold in the morning, its time to go into hibernation me thinks.

image-5

  • Arm around level 6
  • Tired 💤
  • Upset stomach (from Sunday) all ok now

 

4:20pm – update
– the arm pain down to around level 4 💃🏻

Tuesday 8th May
I still want to hibernate, but that’s because it’s so cold in the mornings. Funny because from where I’m from (UK) they all think 18-20 is hot!

Arm pain is pretty low in the mornings still then over the day gets a little worse. But also started to noticed my nails are looking really good, and white and strong ( what’s the betting I break one now!) 🤪


Wednesday 9 May
Slightly confused🤷‍♀️ about where the molecules going to and what they are doing right now.

I feel like I’m still not 100% recovered since I discovering the enlarged lymph node under my arm, and I am starting to feel the signs of feeling sick. Nothing has eventuated, but I just don’t feel my good self that I have become used to since replenishing these molecules into my body… so what are they doing.

I’ve even noticed my bruises aren’t healing as well as they have been. Very strange. My arm started to hurt more last night and this morning is at level 7.

Week 5-6 On Redox Signaling Molecules

pain-scale

Summary

Hello and welcome to my next two weekly installments on the Redox Signalling molecules (beverage and gel).

Over the last two weeks, I have definitely noticed a variation in the pain of my tennis elbow injury. From how it was a constant pain to some days very minor that I don’t notice it.  My energy level is awesome and my brain is very clear and focused.

I have had a few days that I felt very sore, and it seems to be in conjunction with my monthly cycles?? maybe the molecules are helping in that area, I do wonder how much my body needs at this time, I did up my does which I think helped but it is hard to tell if I would have naturally felt better or if its the molecules.

Overall I am very very happy with my progress, especially as I’m only 6 weeks into the 3-6 months expected timeframe.

 


 

Week 5

Thursday 12 April
Started to feel a bit better again today

  • Arm 6
  • Shoulder 3
  • Bowls ok
Started to get ovulation pain wonder🤕 if that’s why I was feeling bad last week?

Friday 13  April
Observations for today:

  • Arm level 6
  • Feel more energy back again
  • Ovulation pain 4
  • Started to need the toilet a lot yesterday?
  • Shoulder level 2

15 April Sunday

I forgot to write something yesterday which is interesting, am I not in so much pain so I forgetting??
My arm pain is definitely varying and not a constant anymore, at the moment it’s around 6 in morning to about 8 at night.
  • shoulder 2
  • energy 4
Notice: Bruises seem to be healing quicker. I bruise really easily and normally they take 2 weeks or so to heel, I’ve defiantly noticed them healing in a week!

 Wednesday 18 April 
Arm pain is quite minimal this morning yay, around 3!!! 😮

I’ve started to notice a change in my skin. My forehead feels very dry and a bit sensitive maybe need to back off the gel a bit on my face, I had this when I started using my Arbonne products that had active ingredients, it was just my skin getting used to it, so I’m not worried.
Update:
Regarding my Skin being very dry. I’ve spoken to Eniko (a natural path) and said to stop using the gel for a few days as it sounds like my skin is detoxing.  I’ll back off and slowly introduce it again
woo-yeah.pngWoo hoo just realised its the first day without my arm brace, didn’t even realise until now!! 10:00pm

 

Week 6

Thursday 19 April
Skin really dry still and has become a little sensitive. I”ve had to back off putting some of my skincare on as it’s stinging! I’m not putting the gel on my face either.

Skin feels itchy on arms. Maybe this is a detoxing or healing?

Friday 20 April
 I woke up this morning, now feeling awful again, what I call back to my normal state (which is a huge change to what I’ve felt of the last 6 weeks). My mood is ok, as my head is clear, but my aches and pains and tiredness and not good again – overall feel a level 8
  • Arm level last night around 8, I applied the 3x in 5 Mins, it gave me relief before bed, pain to about 5, but when I woke it was worse again.
  • Shoulder /  neck – level 4
  • no other noticeable pains

Noticed: other than week 4, after the accident I haven’t taken any pain medication 😲

 

Saturday  21st April
My skin is a lot better today and doesn’t feel so dry. I’ve managed to use my genius pads this evening (before they were stinging)

  • OUCH – Knocked my knee ( basically Knee butted the wall). Applied Gel straight away to see if I get a bruise???

yay.png

(Update: Bruise did develop but really really faintly, normally I bruise really bad)

  • Have headaches

  • Energy good
  • Happy
  • Arm pain has varied today. Definitely not noticing it as much. Right now 12:46 (technical tomorrow) pain 4 woo hoo

 

Sunday 22 April
10:30 am – Did not want to get out of bed this morning, feeling very tired and a bit aching/sore / stiff. The weather is☔️🌧 – which is no incentive. First full wet morning for a while. This is normal for me when it’s wet and cold. Actually, I’m usually worse in damp conditions!

raining.png
  • Arm level 6
  • Shoulder 2
By end of the day I’ve started to feel a bit crappy (only took 3x dosages – is that significant?
  • My skin around neck itchy
  •  Also noticed on a scratch from one of the kittens on my finger is itchy a lot and has healed really quickly!

Monday 23 April 

Woo hoo, my arm pain is between 0-1 again in the shower and I suddenly thought oh wow I have not felt pain so I moved my arm and nothing!
As I’ve begun to get myself ready starting to feel it so around 1-2 now 7:35am

cockadoodledoo.png

Also, I’m not tasting the beverage anymore. When I first started it I had to hold my nose gulp as I couldn’t stand it. Now it’s like drinking 🥛 milk 😆
  • Shoulder and joints 3 – considering it’s still 🌧 our their I’m happy 😃
  • Energy and feel happy. People at work said wow you are chirpy

Had to take some pain meds. But disappeared as soon as I did, normally need to take Buscapan too!
6:12pm. Just realised my arm pain down to 4

period-pain.png

24 April Tuesday
Woke up feeling good, considering I’m on my period. Not had to take any more pain meds which is an improvement! My skin had been feeling great but starting to get pimps around my mouth. I’ve not had this before – I wonder if this is another mini detox??

My Arm is feeling good. The pain has varied today but I haven’t had to wear my arm brace again. Pain from 4-5 to about 7 atm.

Definitely noticing big variations. Last 2-3 days especially.

feelin-fine.png

 

happydays-e1524813819450.pngFeeing happy and full of energy. Which is weird since I’m on my period. Defiantly still craved chocolate for the last few days which is normally. Not had to take any more pain meds for period paid Woop woop, bloating haven’t noticed anything!!! 😊😆👍🏼 Very unusual.

Excited what else these molecules will do

 

Wednesday 25th April
I woke up late – it’s a public holiday. But I have a headache and feel very very tired. I didn’t put any gel on last night, not sure if 🤔 that has anything to do with it?

  • Arm back to- level 7-8
  • Aching body- level6
  • Headache – level 6
  • Still on my period (but no pain!)
Wow, feel like I use to on a bad day back ribs shoulders all ache. Arm hurts I feel tired and have a headache.🤕 Forgotten how this feels

OMG these molecules are starting to work, I am so happy!

pain-scale

I’ve just had to share how I’m feeling today, I’m in shock. Below is a text I sent to my dear friend who introduced me to redox signalling molecules!

OMG 😲 I just woke up and was in the shower for a few seconds and I burst out crying, my pain level in my arm is down to a 1!! (normally 8-9 when I wake up) I have not had this relief for months, especially after how Painful it was last night at a 9.
I received my products yesterday so slathered the gel over my arm before I went to bed. I’m not expecting it to stay at level 1 as I use my arm throughout the day, but wow. And my scar is looking less red, woo hoo. Oscars eyes are looking better. I’m actually in a bit of a shock. Thank you for sharing 🙏

Check out my next post, I will put some before and after pictures of Oscar and my scar! 😊

UPDATED: 6 APRIL – JUST ADDED NEW POST ABOUT OSCAR!

First weeks results on using the Redox signalling Molecules

I’ve kept a daily record of how I feel while taking this molecule beverage, hopefully, over the next few months, I can see any differences in my wellbeing. I’m not expecting much straight away, any significant changes I’ve been informed can take between 3-6 months. If you haven’t read my previous introduction post, see here >

Summary – update for the first week

“I’ve been taking the Redox signalling Molecule beverage twice a day (60ml x2) for a week now and randomly putting gel on areas of the body. Overall I’ve not felt any difference in any significant pain levels change. However other things have started to turn – I feel like I’ve been through a mini detox, and have a change in my mental alertness, although still feeling tired my brain seems wired.”

Here is a list of issues and pains that I have before taking the molecule beverage. Pain level rated between 0-10,  10 being the highest level pain.

pain-scale

My Pain descriptions and general health status, on a day to day basis – before taking the beverage

  • Tennis Elbow – Level 8/9 – had for over 6 months with no improvements, plus general aching as the day goes on
  • General aches and pains most of my life and inflammation in joints
  • Slight Scoliosis in my spine (Chiro treatment monthly)
  • Digestive issues; stomach cramps and bowel issues especially on some food types (diagnosed with a DNA test)
  • Subluxation in the shoulder, causing pain (weekly physio treatment)
  • Eyesight started to deteriorate over last few years

Daily Record

Thursday 15 March 2018 – introduced to Asea
( please see my initial post)

  • Given a sample tube of  the redox gel which is more potent than the beverage
  • Applied 3x in 5 minutes, Initially had instant relief in my elbow after the third application. Although it didn’t last.
  • Applied 3x in 5 minutes, on back

Started to take 30 ml of the beverage this evening ( half dosage, to make sure my digestion is okay).


Friday 16 March

Drank 30ml molecules AM

  • Feeling very tired upon waking and arm hurts – pain level 8
  • Back not as bad – level 6

60ml molecules PM

  • I’m not feeling hungry (eat late lunch, maybe the reason?)
  • Didn’t have dinner.

  • Applied to face (taken before photos).

30ml molecules AM

how-do-redox-molecules


Saturday 17 March 2018

Had to get up relatively early today, feel very tired, kept snoozing.

Body feels;

  • heavy
  • ribs hurt
  • Elbox – level 8
  • very emotional
  • back – level 3
  • the brain seems alert, which is weird because I feel tired.

Dosage: 60ml x2

After 2nd does

  • Elbow pain seems a little less when I picked up a jug of water – level 6, but straightening still at level8
  • Lips feel tingling – applied gell 3x 5 mins
  • Applied to my scar
  • Applied to my cat’s eyes ( see below)

Decided to try molecules on Oscar (my, cat)…

Oscar has had an eye issue for a few months now. The vet doesn’t know what’s wrong, maybe a virus, but the symptoms haven’t got worse or better, and after reading a post on facebook of a testimonial of a Guinie pig that the vet said to put to sleep, instead the owners gave this molecule and he is still alive!  I thought what the heck!

I soaked a cotton wool ball in the solution and applied to Oscar’s eyes, and tried to wash them out with it too as much as I could (cat + liquid= angry cat) – See photo.

Sunday 18 March 2018

Here are today’s notes:

  • Bowel movements  – seem healthy, I actually had a proper 💩 😲 ( sorry for the detail) – this is not normal for me!
  • Elbow – pain level still high – 8
  • Back around 4
  • Tired but I had broken sleep and couldn’t switch off my brain! I seem very wired, not sure if this is the molecules – maybe it’s just me learning about these molecules?
  • I feel like I smell, as though something coming out of my pores, and have a weird metal taste in the mouth
  • Applied to an area of skin on my body, where I have had an acne issue – Photo was taken

Monday 19 March 2018

  • Feel very tired again but have mental alertness – things seem clear
  • no improvement in the elbow
  • Still, have weird taste in the mouth
  • My the tongue is white

Tuesday 20 March 2018

  • Didn’t sleep well at all
  • my body feels very heavy, sore body (maybe from cleaning on Sunday for my rent inspection)
  • Arm 7 then later back to 8 in evening
  • Shoulder 6 up to 7 throughout the day
  • Bought a spray bottle for Oscar’s eyes – he hates it, I think I’ll go back to cotton wool pads.

Wednesday 21 March 2018

  • Arm around 6 this morning, maybe I just had a good sleep? However after using my phone pain back up to 8
  • On initially waking, feel tired, but the mind is awake.
  • I had trouble getting to sleep last night, mind racing, and interruption with the animals, but once asleep was a great night sleep – didn’t snooze my alarm which is unusual.
  • Eat rice last night and for lunch ( food I’m not supposed to eat) normal reaction – note to myself stop eating rice!
  • Oscars’ eyes seem to be slightly improved. Hard to tell will have to check the photos
  • Drinking lots of water (typical for me)

Thursday 22 March 2018

  • Ribs body still hurting when I wake up from my nights’ sleep
  • Arm same
  • Mind awake got up straight away and started chores in the house!
  • Running out of Gel, so I’m not consistently using it – hopefully, my order will arrive soon. I’m thinking of doubling my does
  • The evening had the beginnings of a migraine, used what was left of the gel on temples back of the neck – seemed to release it a little. Went to bed.

So there you have it, I feel like my mental alertness has increased in the first week.

Have a great day 🌻

First week on redox signalling molecules

4 days ago a close friend of mine asked me to go to a presentation about a new health product that she thought I would benefit from.

I was a little intrigued but the main reason I went was that she was a friend and I’m so glad I did.

After hearing the testimonials of others that had been taking these molecules my level of curiosity heightened, I was actually moved by the stories I was hearing and just thought wow if this works how many people I could share it with and help with their daily suffering, and mine too.

I have suffered pain almost all my life since I was a young kid, I’ve been prodded and poked and roughly diagnosed with all sorts of issues, but nothing really that was fixable. My symptoms change from year to year and as I’m getting older other issues have crept in too. I suffer from what I think a lot of people do, symptoms involving digestive issues, inflammation, joint pain and general wear and tear, so on hearing about how this product had changed peoples lives, I could not say no, I have nothing to lose from it!

I’m mainly writing this for my future self to remember where I am at with my pain levels and to track the effects of these molecules I’m taking. I am a little skeptical but time will tell, and I just keep reading some many testimonials that I want to see it for myself.  I haven’t decided if I should do daily or weekly posts but watch this space for my report on how hopefully this will change my health…

I need to share this…helps itchy lumps and bites

I really am chuffed with the SeaSource body Gelee and rejuvenating cream.

At the beginning of the summer heat, each year I get these annoying itchy hard lumps on my hands, especially on my knuckles. Every year I try all different kind of creams and I must say this combo has worked the best…

Apply a small amount of the Gelee cream, every time it starts to itch, keep re-applying 2-3 times until it stops. Then at night applied the rejuvenating cream which helps to heal the skin.

Works on mosquito bites too!

Weight Management Program – Evolution

Day one of my weight management program… and I’ve already been asked on Facebook why am I doing this?

Well it’s not just over weight people that need to manage their diet, these products aren’t really for a diet as such but to manage your diet. They contain some amazing ingredients which helps support your digestion and metabolism, and gives a more natural energy boost rather than replying in in healthy sugar or caffein spikes.

So far I’ve been using the following Arbonne Healthy living products:

The Pea Protein Shakes, (also see previous blogs) but I love the vanilla flavour. Combined with two small bananas its really tasty and it is a great breakfast alternative for me as I use to skip it having no time in the mornings. Arbonne have recently changed the ingredients (slightly) so they can officially be called meal replacement shake ( they have also taken out fructose, which is apparently a known carcinogenic!). To make my shake even more beneficial I’ve include the “greens balance” and “thermobooster” tablets to my diet.

The Green balance – to start with I had it on its own. Wow the taste is something I will have to TRY and get use to. However in the meantime i think I will try adding it to my shake to see if it’s more palatable!

Thermoboist tablets. After taking these I have become so much more alert than I have for a while. Normally I get a massive lag around 3pm but I’m still going which is a great sign (although I think I will not have them after lunch anymore as I am still wide awake and its gone after midnight!)

Will see what tomorrow brings…

The world wide web is filled with controversial ingredient information?

Unfortunately the world wide web is filled with controversial information; not all sources of information are reliable and not all studies are conclusive, especially when using major search engines as primary sources of research.

It seems so many people are quick to judge and form inconclusive opinions when researching products. One can easy to get caught up in the ingredient details so it is important you have confidence not only in the products but also in the company that produces them.

There is a lot of negativity out their about certain ingredients and in some of the Arbonne products in particular. However it seems to be more of peoples “options” rather than actual facts, maybe from competitors?

Being new to this industry I was a little skeptical myself, but I now truly believe in what Arbonne stand for and trust in their products, mainly due to their response when I asked them straight out…

“At Arbonne we have 30 + researchers developed constantly looking into the safety of all their products and wil take immediate action if anything is unsafe! Arbonne evaluates the science and safety of all ingredients in an open and unbiased, and expert manner”

It is important to use reputable sources. Below are two sites that were recommended to me to use as a authoritative source of ingredient information.

Cosmetic ingredient review board
The CIRB was established in 1976 with the support of the US food and Drug administration and the consumer Federation of America

Personal Care Projects Council
The PCPC is the leading national trade association for the cosmetic and personal-care Industry.

In one of Arbonne products there is an ingredient they use called Butylene Glycol, a client asked why since it seems to have a bit of negative press. My answer was as follows, this is a reliable piece of information, so judge for your self….

Butylene Glycol, Hexylene Glycol, Ethoxydiglycol and Dipropylene Glycol are clear, practically colorless, liquids.

In cosmetics and personal care products, these ingredients are used in the formulation of hair and bath products, eye and facial makeup, fragrances, personal cleanliness products, and shaving and skin care products.

Butylene Glycol, Hexylene Glycol, Ethoxydiglycol and Dipropylene Glycol are used as solvents and viscosity decreasing agents in cosmetics and personal care products.

The safety of Butylene Glycol and related ingredients has been assessed by the (CIR) Expert Panel. The CIR Expert Panel evaluated the scientific data and concluded that Butylene Glycol, Hexylene Glycol, Ethoxydiglycol and Dipropylene Glycol are safe for use in cosmetics and personal care products. In 2004, the CIR Expert Panel considered available new data on Butylene Glycol and the related ingredients and reaffirmed the above conclusion. There were no reactions indicative of skin sensitization to these glycols in any skin sensitization assays and no suggestions of phototoxicity or photosensitization.

“Arbonne will take immediate action on any ingredient that is unsafe in any of its formulations when guided by the FDA, the CTFA and the CIR. In our normal course of business, we continue to research and develop the pure, safe, and beneficial products our Independent Consultants and Clients have enjoyed for more than 30 years.”

I hope this has helped any skeptics out there, enjoy researching and I highly recommend the Arbonne products, my skin has never been this good….maybe when I pluck up the courage I will share my before and after photos 🙂
