Opting for Optimus – Cognizin® Citicoline Featured in New Drinkable Nootropic Supplement


News Image

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.

Smiles by Hogan Restores Confidence in North Charleston, SC with Rejuvenating BOTOX® and Cosmetic Dentistry


Dr. Kevin Hogan, Dentist in North Charleston, SC

Dr. Kevin Hogan Enhances Youthfulness in North Charleston, SC with BOTOX®

The art of cosmetic dentistry can change a person’s life.

Those seeking a youthful makeover can receive the rejuvenating effects of BOTOX® from Dr. Kevin Hogan with or without a referral. Cosmetic dentistry treatments like BOTOX offer North Charleston, SC patients a more youthful appearance and a boost in self-esteem. The practice, Smiles by Hogan, offers a wide variety of cosmetic dentistry treatments to achieve patients’ smile goals.

“The art of cosmetic dentistry can change a person’s life. We’re able to take debilitated dentition and bring that back up to a beautiful smile that patients can use with confidence,” says Dr. Hogan. “Many times, we see patients who choose BOTOX to enhance the youthfulness of their face after receiving dental treatments. Now they have a beautiful smile and the facial aesthetics to match.”

BOTOX is essentially a muscle relaxer for the skin. Strategically injected into areas with fine lines and wrinkles, this neurotoxic protein temporarily paralyzes the muscles behind these wrinkles, relaxing and smoothing the skin. The treatment is minimally invasive and discreet, only requiring a simple injection into targeted areas of the face. BOTOX treatment often goes undetected by others, simply giving the patient a more youthful look right after the procedure. It is recommended that patients who choose BOTOX also receive follow up treatments to ensure a lasting firmness and reduction of lines.

Smiles by Hogan is a comprehensive dental practice that offers traditional and advanced dentistry along with modern cosmetic dentistry treatments. The practice takes pride in the fact that their modern treatments can drastically improve the appearance and self-esteem of a patient without looking like extensive surgical work has been performed. In addition to BOTOX, patients can benefit from multiple cosmetic solutions to improve the look of their smile and overall appearance. These additional treatments include:

  • Composite fillings
  • Orthodontics
  • Invisalign®
  • Porcelain veneers
  • Teeth whitening


Those interested in receiving BOTOX treatment or other cosmetic dentistry services are encouraged to call the practice at 843-216-0908 or visit the website at http://www.smilesbyhogan.com to schedule a personalized smile makeover consultation.

Teeth Whitener Product Outshines the Competition with Top 5-Star Rating from TopConsumerReviews.com


News Image

Because AuraGlow is easy on the budget while still delivering professional-quality results, we’re pleased to give it our highest ranking among Teeth Whiteners in 2019

TopConsumerReviews.com recently awarded their highest five-star rating to AuraGlow, an industry-leading product among Teeth Whiteners.

It’s been proven that a bright, white smile can make a huge difference in a first impression. For people looking to land a new job or hoping to attract a partner, removing years of coffee, cigarette or wine stains can become a top priority. In the past, lightening the shade of one’s teeth would require lengthy, extensive-and-expensive treatments at the dentist’s office or at the salon. But, over the last 10+ years, a wide array of at-home Teeth Whiteners have made it simple and affordable to get professional-level improvement without leaving the house. These Teeth Whitening systems range from thin strips that stick to the front surfaces of the teeth to gels and LED lights that treat the entire mouth – with varying degrees of effectiveness. Customers should carefully evaluate each Teeth Whitener to see which ones have had the most success for the most users.

“Is a brighter, whiter smile at the top of your self-improvement wish list? If so, you won’t find a Teeth Whitener that’s a better value for your money than AuraGlow,” according to Brian Dolezal of TopConsumerReviews.com, LLC. “This system uses a 35% carbamide peroxide gel in combination with a LED-lit mouth tray, which accelerates the effectiveness of the treatment. You can complete a full whitening session in just 30 minutes at home, while you go about your life as usual. We were extremely impressed by the before-and-after stories of actual customers: AuraGlow produces significant improvements in whiteness after just a few treatments. And, since the kit comes up with enough gel for 20 uses, you’ll have plenty left for any maintenance treatments you may want down the road. We also appreciate that AuraGlow’s support team is friendly and helpful when customers contact them for help with the system, for advice on how to avoid gum sensitivity, and any other needed recommendations for treatment. Because AuraGlow is easy on the budget while still delivering professional-quality results, we’re pleased to give it our highest ranking among Teeth Whiteners in 2019. ”

In Defense of the ACA, and Women and Family Healthcare Rights


“Women have more control over their healthcare journeys when they can access preventative services, and have opportunities to detect and treat adverse conditions early.”

Aeroflow Healthcare, a leading durable medical equipment (DME) provider and Inc. 5000 fastest growing company, and its executive leadership announced their continued support and public advocacy for female and mother/baby health rights via the Affordable Healthcare Act.

Aeroflow emphasizes the ACA’s purpose of protecting many groups, including women, and under it, making preventative health services accessible for women with no cost-sharing – meaning complete insurance coverage. These services include mammograms, cervical cancer screenings, prenatal care, and breastfeeding supplies, support and services, among many others.

It is Aeroflow Healthcare’s position that preventative healthcare is of utmost importance for the women in our lives, not only for their own livelihood, but for that of the children they bear and are often the primary caregiver and guardian of. U.S. healthcare is littered with statistics highlighting a much higher than expected infant mortality rate and an unacceptable number of complications and health scares both pre- and post-childbirth. The protection of the ACA should be reflective of the overwhelming support for legislature that provides preventative medicine and additional women’s and family rights, ultimately saving patients and providers money.

“Aeroflow stands in staunch support of the rights and welfare of expectant mothers, families, and women and men responsible for the guardianship of children,” said Amanda Baethke, Director of Corporate Development. “Women have more control over their healthcare journeys when they can access preventative services, and have opportunities to detect and treat adverse conditions early. As the ACA makes provisions for these services, we stand with the majority of American citizens who seek to protect it, and encourage the public to contact your representative in congress and tell them that the women in your life are far too important to lose healthcare options.

About Aeroflow Healthcare

Aeroflow Healthcare was founded Asheville, NC in 2001 as a home oxygen provider, and has since grown to become one of the leading durable medical equipment providers nationwide. For three consecutive years, Aeroflow has been ranked on Inc. Magazine’s List of 5000 Fastest Growing Companies. In 2017, Aeroflow was also awarded the HME Excellence Award for Best Home Medical Equipment Provider and has been recognized as a business offering top-notch benefits to employees with the Great Place to Work Award. Aeroflow is an accredited Medicare and Medicaid provider and accepts most commercial insurance.
