NEW YORK (PRWEB)
December 13, 2019

Nootropic supplement brand Nustait enters the market with its first product launch Optimus, a non-GMO, vegan, gluten-free drinkable nootropic supplement curated with research-backed ingredients for cognitive support, available in a lemon tea flavor.

Optimus, designed to be fast-acting and long-lasting, is a potent nootropic containing the equivalent of eleven capsules packed into one single serving, a move that amounted from co-founder Eduardo Casado’s research on nootropics and his desire to combine the hefty eleven capsules he would take per day into one highly effective nootropic formula.

“Knowing that the nootropic field is growing fast, and that there’s a lot of junk out there, people want and need a quality supplement, which is why we decided to create Optimus,” comments Jesse Casado, co-founder of Nustait, ”One serving contains the equivalent of 11 pills, which means less money while still receiving high quality, high potency, researched-backed ingredients.”

Optimus’ unique formulation consists of popular nootropic ingredients such as ashwagandha and l-theanine, along with Kyowa Hakko’s patented form of citicoline, Cognizin® Citicoline.

Tested in human clinical trials and developed using an innovative fermentation process, Cognizin® Citicoline is a pure, allergen-free ingredient with GRAS status that’s stable and effective*. Cognizin® Citicoline supports mental energy, focus and attention*, helping to keep the brain’s energy centers firing.*

Kyowa Hakko Bio, health ingredient manufacturer of Cognizin® Citicoline and global leaders in the development, manufacturing and marketing of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and food products, is “thrilled to have Cognizin® Citicoline featured as a key component of Nustait’s groundbreaking new product,” remarks Elyse Lovett, Senior Marketing Manager, Kyowa Hakko USA. “Kyowa Hakko is always striving for advancement and innovation within the dietary supplement industry, and Cognizin® Citicoline’s addition into this drinkable nootropic product helps to further this mission,” she adds.

Optimus is available for purchase online at http://www.nustait.com. Media interested in setting up an interview with a representative from Kyowa Hakko USA please contact Sara White at sara@adinnyc.com or 212-693-2150.

“With all the innate work and home pressures of the holiday season, our team of experts is here to support other women.”

NEW YORK (PRWEB)
December 12, 2019

TONE Networks, the expert-driven, online microlearning platform for women, has queried their large roster of experts and put together top tips for thriving as busy, working professionals this holiday season.

“As an enterprise solution enabling companies to offer development to all levels of women in an organization, we empower working women to learn, grow and achieve their fullest potential,” said Tone Networks CEO Gemma Toner. “With all the innate work and home pressures of the holiday season, our team of experts is here to support other women.”

While the season can certainly be demanding, TONE’s experts believe it can be a special time with colleagues, clients, friends and family. In order to manage the stress that accompanies the end-of-year pressures, TONE Networks offers the following to advice to keep in mind in the weeks leading up to the holidays:

• 
  TONE’s own relationship realist, Dr. Ramani Durvasula, recommends remembering what the holidays are about and suggests giving back and volunteering, and reaching out to old friends you don’t often see. In the madness of trying to make sure every “I” is dotted and “T” crossed, it’s easy to lose sight of the spirit of goodwill the holidays let us cultivate.
• With the holidays prompting a detour from bedtime routines, TONE’s sleep expert Nancy Rothstein has a few tips for staying awake during the holidays – and enjoying those waking hours! She suggests power naps in the afternoon so you are refreshed for any evening activities, not drinking holiday drinks too close to bedtime so you can sleep soundly, and taking a warm shower before bedtime to wind down and transition to sleep in peace.
• Diet Scientist Traci Fields practices yoga and meditation and encourages others to do so, especially during times of stress. This will help center the mind and body to stay focused in the bustle of the season.
• Transformational psychologist Dr. Debi Silber suggests taking a few minutes each day to reflect on the true meaning of the season and what is important. This helps to put things into perspective and makes some of the things on the worry list seem just a little more manageable. For some, it can also be a painful time of year so she also recommends using this time to create a new experience to bring a new meaning to the holidays. Doing something just for you that brings joy and fulfillment can be the beginning of a new way to celebrate and ring in the New Year.

And for those in search of the perfect holiday gift for the hardworking corporate woman, a full year subscription to TONE Networks – including interactive online coaching sessions, unlimited microlearning content and exclusive livestreaming events – can be gifted for $49.90.

About TONE Networks: TONE Networks is a scalable video-based learning and development platform that empowers female employees through expert content, live coaching and a vibrant online community.

the indigenous Damiana helps alleviate symptoms from medical conditions such as anxiety, chronic headaches, depression, more

CABO SAN LUCAS, Mexico (PRWEB)
December 11, 2019

A new Damiana Massage employs the therapeutic effects of the native plant at the award-winning SE Spa at the AAA Five Diamond Grand Velas Los Cabos. The treatment (80 min; $410 USD) includes:

• 
  a body scrub to remove dead skin cells, preparing the skin to absorb the calming, restorative effects of the Damiana plant;
• a massage with Damiana-infused lotion performed by a spa therapist;
• an acupressure facial and head massage, which aims to strengthen muscles, release tension, and relieve sinus congestion;
• and a cup of Damiana-infused hot tea at the end of the treatment, further incorporating the plant into the spa experience.

It is believed that the indigenous Damiana helps alleviate symptoms from the various medical conditions including anxiety, chronic headaches, depression, and more.

Included in any treatment of 50 minutes or more, a seven step water journey features a eucalyptus-scented steam room with chromotherapy, polar pool, aromatherapy sensory shower, sauna, Jacuzzi and multi-sensory pool. The central pool features several hydro elements such as powerful massaging faucets for neck and back and bubble beds, carved-stone chaises with jets set just underneath the surface of the water on which guests recline. A spa valet provides shots of Tea Forte teas and healthy snacks for additional health benefits as well as personalized direction to make sure guests get the most out of the truly relaxing hydrotherapy experience — such as how to alternate the various hot and cold rooms and pools, and how long to linger in them. Upon completion of the journey, guests recline on heated loungers with warm neck pillows, cool scented towels and cucumbers on the eyes to ensure the body is fully relaxed for a treatment.

Rates at Grand Velas Los Cabos’ all-inclusive resort start at $616 per person per night in double occupancy and include luxury suite accommodations, gourmet meals, premium branded beverages, 24-hour in-suite service, nightly entertainment, taxes, gratuity, and more.

Cannabis users can now legally consume hemp flower and enjoy the benefits of CBD without becoming intoxicated.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
December 11, 2019

Cheef Botanicals, a leading CBD manufacturer, today announced a new line of Premium CBD Hemp Flower, which includes popular strains such as Lifter and Hawaiian Haze. The line of hemp flower fills a gap in the manufacturer’s offering that meets growing consumer demand. The popularity of CBD flower has been growing year over year, as consumers are learning about legal forms of the cannabis plant.

“To this day, there is confusion about the cannabis flower and the difference between hemp and marijuana. Per the 2018 Farm Bill, hemp flower is now federally legal and contains high levels of CBD, with extremely low amounts of THC. Because of this, cannabis users can now legally consume hemp flower and enjoy the benefits of CBD without becoming intoxicated,” says Dareh Zadoorian, Owner of Cheef Botanicals. “After months of careful research, we have partnered with premium hemp farms in Oregon that cultivate plants using strict growing standards.”

The premium CBD hemp flower is currently available in two strains and two sizes, based on consumer preference:

• CBD Hemp Flower, Lifter – 4g; MSRP $24.95
• CBD Hemp Flower, Hawaiian Haze – 4g; MSRP $24.95
• CBD Hemp Flower, Lifter – 7g; MSRP $39.95
• CBD Hemp Flower, Hawaiian Haze – 7g; MSRP $39.95

The CBD flowers are currently available on the Cheef Botanicals website, CheefBotanicals.com, and will begin shipping to retailers this month. The new line expands Cheef Botanicals’ offering of CBD products to also include flower. All products are lab tested by a third party to ensure that purity and quality standards are met, and THC levels are under 0.3%. For more information on CBD hemp flower, visit Cheef Botanicals.
