Acid-2-Alkaline Receives Prestigious USDA Organic Certification


San Antonio, TX (PRWEB) September 05, 2014

Max Koutny, president and founder of the nutritional product company Acid-2-Alkaline®, today announced that the company has received full USDA Organic Certification status. To be certified as organic, a manufacturer, grower or product handler must meet a set of stringent requirements under the USDA’s National Organic Program (NOP). Receiving the USDA Organic Certification Seal demonstrates a company’s ongoing commitment to a healthy planet and assures consumers and buyers that the company, products and individual ingredients meet the NOP guidelines in regard to the National List of Allowed and Prohibited Substances.

“Achieving USDA Organic Certified status means that our product has received the highest quality rating that an all – natural product line can achieve,” states Mr. Koutny. “Each of our ingredients meets the requirements of the USDA National Organic Program and its’ regulations inspected by an authorized certifying agent. We are proud to be a leader in the health supplements industry, particularly as it relates to keeping all of our products 100% natural and pure, free of chemicals, additives, fillers, and preservatives. We will continue to maintain outstanding quality in all of our products as we move forward.”

Acid-2-Alkaline helps support healthy pH body levels by providing a natural way to help alkalize the body. The alkaline supplements are 100% chemical free, vegan, cruelty free, and certified as Organic and Made with Organic. Originally introduced to the public in 1995, Acid-2-Alkaline has helped thousands of people to improve their low grade health and become healthier, more active individuals.

In the opinion of Acid-2-Alkaline, low grade health, which may include a wide range of health conditions and general discomfort around eating, is a common problem many people face. In addition to leading hectic, fast paced lifestyles, many people have a tendency to eat acid forming fast foods and other acidic forming processed foods, which contributes to the problem. With food being the very source of our sustenance and energy and the central point of many of our social activities, it is imperative to maintain a healthy alkaline diet in order to succeed in one’s day-to-day lives.

While many thousands of people currently use body alkalizing supplements, most manufacturers of body alkalizing supplements are not USDA Certified Organic. This means that those products could contain harmful additives, synthetic chemicals, dyes and by-products as fillers to cut down on their costs.

To find out if a product you are interested in consuming is certified as organic, look on the label. If it is certified organic, it will have a “USDA Organic Certified” seal on the front label or a “Made with Organic” statement. Along with the USDA seal or “Made with Organic” statement, it will say “Certified Organic By” and list the name of the agency under which it has been certified.

Any company that advertises as being organic in their online or printed advertising will also have an “Organic Certificate.” If a company cannot produce their certificate showing which of their products are certified as organic, they are probably not certified organic.

Restore and balance yourself from the inside out with a new supplement that’s not only good for your skin, but your entire body! It’s called Skin Balance by Elina Organics and it contains organic spirulina (blue and green algae), vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) and pharmaceutical MSM (organic sulfur). It’s beneficial for all complexions, especially those prone to acne and rosacea.

“For many years I encouraged my clients to take MSM, spirulina and vitamin B5 together because they compliment each other and work synergetically to benefit problem complexions,” says Elina Fedotova, CEO and formulator of Elina Organics. “For some reason they would take one or two, but rarely all of them on a daily basis. So they could easily take all three of these ingredients in in the most beneficial proportions, I formulated Skin Balance.”

More about the Ingredients in Skin Balance:


Spirulina is known for its nourishing amino acids, high beta carotene content and its detoxifying and alkalizing effects.

MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a source of organic sulfur and has proven anti-inflammatory effects on the skin.

Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) is a member of the B-complex of vitamins. It helps improve the skin’s metabolism and reduce acne.

“We have received so many wonderful testimonies. Clients with rosacea say taking Skin Balance has diminished skin redness and irritation in the morning. Clients with acne report fewer break outs and less irritation. They also feel more relaxed and energized.”

Naples Plastic Surgeon Introduces Pain-free Fat Removal Technique


Naples, Florida (PRWEB) September 18, 2014

Dr. Andrea Basile, MD, one of the most respected plastic surgeons in the nation, has expanded his services at Basile Plastic Surgery to include Coolsculpting. This non-invasive technique is quickly becoming one of the most sought after treatments in the world for the removal of fat because of its lack of pain or strain.

According to Dr. Basile, Coolsculpting will greatly benefit those patients with body contouring concerns who do not wish to undergo a surgical procedure. He also said this procedure is ideal for people who are fit, but just need to address some “stubborn fat.”

“We have a lot of fans of the practice who are in good shape, but have one or two ‘trouble spots,’ and they have no time for surgery or the recovery that goes with it,” explained Dr. Basile. “Coolsculpting allows them to come in during their lunch hour for a treatment of the area, and weeks later that area has lost 25 percent of its volume.”

Coolsculpting reduces unwanted fat deposits by freezing the fat cells which patients have a difficult time removing through standard exercise and dieting. The fat is destroyed and eliminated naturally, leaving a more sculpted body contour. Fat cells are susceptible to freezing temperatures, and when they die, it does not affect the surrounding area. The body’s natural healing process then removes all of the dead cells. Dr. Basile said the best part for patients is Coolsculpting requires no needles, anesthesia, preparation or downtime for patients.

“We can finally help patients with one or more stubborn fat deposits. They can trim these areas without having to jump through the hurdles of surgery,” he said.

All treatments are done in the Basile Plastic Surgery office. Appointments are scheduled for an hour at a time and at the convenience of the patient. Because there is no downtime from the procedure, Dr. Basile said almost all of his Coolsculpting patients head back to work or back to other activities such as the gym following their treatments.

Basile Plastic Surgery is one of only three plastic surgery centers offering Coolsculpting in Collier County at this time, and is the first to offer treatments with the brand new Outer Thigh CoolSmooth Applicator.

“The best candidate for Coolsculpting is a healthy man or woman with a stubborn spot or two that is not responding to a healthy lifestyle…” said Dr. Basile. “…who doesn’t want the trouble of going to the operating room, but does want their pooch or love handle gone!”

With over 20 years of experience, Dr. Basile has focused his practice on the aesthetic rejuvenation of the face, breast and body. He has earned a national reputation for his exceptional skill, exceptional training and innate artistic eye. The New York City native is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, and dedicates a tremendous amount of time to expanding his skills on the latest plastic surgery trends and techniques, which is what led him to adding Coolsculpting to his practice. Dr. Basile said his goal for every patient is to achieve the most beautiful and natural looking results possible.

Basile Plastic Surgery is known for being on the forefront of cosmetic surgery. The mission of the practice is to “help you become more confident and empowered by increasing the satisfaction in your appearance.” Dr. Basile handpicked each member of the staff for their attention to detail, professionalism and desire to improve the quality of life of others.

Motives Cosmetics Reaches One Million Followers On Instagram In Just One Year


Greensboro, North Carolina (PRWEB) September 09, 2014

Motives Cosmetics, @motivescosmetics, reached a major milestone this past Friday achieving what L’Oreal, CoverGirl, Estée Lauder and Lancôme combined have not – surpassing one million followers on Instagram. What’s more impressive is that this feat was the result of a well-crafted plan created by Motives founder Loren Ridinger just one year ago.

“We couldn’t be happier crossing this monumental threshold of one million Instagram followers so quickly,” Loren Ridinger said enthusiastically. “My goal was to connect with women as well as beauty influencers who visualize Motives as an elite product and brand that is accessible to everyone.”

In celebration, for 12 hours this past Saturday, Motives Cosmetics gave away 12 top-selling products each hour to 12 loyal followers during its ‘Thanks-A-Million Flash Giveaway’. From noon to midnight on Instagram, these top-selling products were given away based upon gorgeous ‘million dollar looks.’

What makes this achievement more significant is that Motives is the first company to achieve this status on an organic level without the help of a media or branding agency. Socially connecting to people through beauty influencers like Naomi Giannopoulos, @Vegas_Nay; Maryam Maquillage, @maryamnyc; Elizabeth Marino, @elymarino; Ellarie Noel, @ellarie; Denise Sanchez, @makeupbydenise; and Teni Panosian, @tenipanosian as well as hundreds more allows everyone to experience the glamorous yet practical nature of Motives by seeing pictorials and videos created by these beauty icons.

“I call this team of beauty influencers the Motives Mavens through whom, along with hundreds of other beauty authorities, we are exponentially connecting with more than 10 million beauty lovers.”

It’s not just Motives’ followers that have increased. As a result of Ridinger’s social media prowess, Motives Cosmetics’ social sales have increased dramatically as well. This is consistent with a recent report released by research firm L2, http://www.l2thinktank.com/research/instagram-2014 wherein Instagram boasts the highest conversion rate from browser to shopper.

“We consider ourselves pioneers of social selling and no one does it better than Motives Cosmetics,” said JR Ridinger, President & CEO of Motives’ parent company, Market America | SHOP.COM. “Having surpassed industry giants in terms of social following and customer engagement, Motives will soon pass them in terms of revenue through ongoing social commerce initiatives that only Loren can envision and execute. She turned selfies into sales – can’t wait to see what’s next.”

La La Anthony, actress and entrepreneur, is also thrilled with the achievement as she and Loren created Motives for La La to address the cosmetics needs of women of all skin tones. Now, with over one million followers, their goal of making everyone feel beautiful is clearly becoming a reality.

“Less than a year ago, Motives Cosmetics had less than 2,000 Instagram followers and now we have over one million,” said La La Anthony. “We are so thankful to all those who have fallen in love with the versatile color palettes and rich formulas of Motives and who have helped us hit this amazing accomplishment!”

Loren and La La personally thanked their followers and posted video messages on Instagram within moments of hitting the one million mark:

NutriGold Supports the FDA’s Call for an Updated Nutrition Facts Label


Orem, Utah (PRWEB) August 31, 2014

The FDA has recently proposed updates to the 20-year-old Nutrition Facts label. If adopted, the proposed changes would include more current nutrition values and serving sizes, the addition of “added sugars” on the label, and a new design. This change has the sugar industry fighting to keep “added sugars” off the label. NutriGold fully supports the new changes and believes they will help consumers make healthier food choices. “After 20 years, it’s time for a change,” said Priya Khan, Director of R&D at NutriGold Inc.

This past January, the USDA released a study showing an increase from 2007 to 2010 among consumers using the Nutrition Facts panel to make food choices. Specifically, “42% of working age adults [up from 34%] and 57% of older adults [up from 51%] reported using the Nutrition Facts panel most or all of the time when making food choices. When asked about nutrition information in restaurants, 76% of working-age adults reported that they would use the information if it were available.”

The scientific case for limiting added sugars grows stronger with time. Several scientific and health organizations have recommended cutting back and limiting our sugar consumption including the World Health Organization, the American Heart Association, and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. “Added sugars exert deleterious health effects beyond empty calories,” said Frank Hu, a researcher at Harvard Medical School. The American Diabetes Association stated, “There is great confusion in the general public between sugars added to food during processing and naturally occurring sugars…While it is true that naturally occurring sugars and added sugars have the same physiological impact, the difference is significant when considering dietary quality. Knowing how much added sugar a food or beverage contains is key in ensuring individuals are able to make dietary decisions to reduce their consumption.”

Despite this, the sugar industry asserts that including “added sugar” to the food label has no basis. A representative for the American Frozen Food Institute said, “certain aspects of the proposal lack some merit, particularly the addition of added sugar.” Andrew Briscoe, the president of the Sugar Association boldly stated, “There is no preponderance of evidence to justify an added sugar label.”

As a company pushing for accountability in the supplement industry, NutriGold is raising the bar when it comes to label transparency. For this reason, NutriGold welcomes any new improvements to the Nutrition Facts label that will assist consumers in making smarter buying decisions for their health.

Dr. Kyle Choe Receives Top Doctor Status


Virginia Beach, Virginia (PRWEB) September 09, 2014

Dr. Kyle S. Choe is excited to share the news that he just been named one of RealSelf’s top doctors; a title reserved for only 10% of participating physicians. The coveted distinction goes out to a small group of aesthetic surgeons who have made a significant impact on the online cosmetic surgery community. Dr. Choe is the only physician in his area to ever receive this honor.

Established in 2006, RealSelf serves as the largest online community for plastic and cosmetic surgery information. On the site, which expects 1.8 million visitors this year, patients can review over 250 procedures. They can also have their questions answered the more than 12,000 participating Board Certified physicians.

To be chosen as top doctor for RealSelf, a physician must make an exceptional effort to disseminate accurate information to the public. Physicians earn the honor based on the quantity and quality of their answers to patient questions posted on the social media site. Dr. Choe was noted for his responses regarding the facelift, blepharoplasty (eyelid lift), and rhinoplasty procedures, although his participation included a broad range of topics.

Dr. Choe remains keenly aware that the sheer volume of information on the Internet can be both intimidating and confusing. As the founder of the Choe Clinic for Facial Plastic Surgery, he sees it as essential to disseminate accurate information to the public. He goes on to share, “We (the Choe Center) will continue to be at the forefront of patient education so they can make informed decision about facial cosmetic procedures.”

Dr. Choe is Board Certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic Surgery. Originally from Tacoma, Washington, Dr. Choe has served the Hampton Roads community for more than ten years. He is active with a variety of local organizations, and annually serves as part of a medical mission team, providing pro-bono medical services to the underserved in Central and South America, Asia and Europe.

“The Time Machine Procedure℠ is a new, non-surgical treatment that’s helping men and women look years younger, and it’s now available for the first time in Oklahoma City” says Ron Nerad, CEO of Vitality Medical & Cosmetic Center, which is introducing the breakthrough procedure to the public at the “Introduction To The Time Machine” event on Thursday, Sept. 4 from 12:00 to 8:00 p.m. Greeting the attendees will be an exact replica of the iconic DeLorean “Time Machine” car from the “Back To The Future” movies, to emphasize how the new treatment can take a person’s appearance “back in time” 5 to 10 years and beyond. Vitality’s staff will follow the “time travel” theme, dressed in the styles of different decades. For more information on the event click here: http://www.vitalitymcc.com/time-machine-procedure

“An extraordinary combination of leading edge technologies and techniques merged with many years of perfecting, the Time Machine Procedure℠ takes on age-related issues including skin deterioration, sun damage, wrinkles, sagging, and loss of volume, as well as hyperactivity of muscles for facial expression,” says Dr. Mauricio. “Offering complete rejuvenation and natural looking results, this customizable process helps patients appear like they have traveled back in time, emerging how they looked 5 to 10 years ago or more after only a few treatments.”

One component of the treatment is a new micro fractional radio frequency technology, which is designed for simpered tone, texture and tightening of the skin. The skin’s natural reaction is to generate new collagen which results in improved volume and younger looking skin. The procedure is quick and down time is minimal, with amazing results and without having to go under the knife. It can be used in combination with specially selected technologies and skin care products to aid in healing and maximize results.

“The beauty of the Time Machine Procedure℠ is that it’s completely customized to the needs of each patient, taking into account his or her age and skin condition instead of a ‘one treatment fits all’ approach.”

Dr. Mauricio says The Time Machine Procedure℠ is the preferred anti-aging treatment for international celebrities such as Marla Maples, Black Eyed Peas’ Apl de Ap, Hilda Koronel, and Gabby Concepcion among others.
