Cool Savings with 10% Off Hyperwear Products Through August 1st

Great news!!  Just got the following email from the folks at Hyperwear:

We could not be more thrilled to announce the television debut of Hyper Vest PRO!  The Oxygen Network is home to a reality competition series that combines Dancing with the Stars and the Biggest Loser called Dance Your A** Off.  Competitors are paired with a professional dancer in hopes of impressing judges and the viewing audience. However, each of the twelve contestants are also hoping to lose weight during the process.

In the episode airing Monday (July 26th), competitors are reminded of how far they've come.  For a one-mile run, they have to wear a Hyper Vest PRO loaded with the amount of weight they have lost so far on their journey.  The amount of weight ranges from 30 to more than 50 pounds, so it promises to be a grueling workout and make for some great TV!

So, check it out! 
Monday, 9 pm central time on the Oxygen Network! 
To celebrate this milestone, we're offering

Madre Labs Products on iHerb.com

Who likes getting free samples?  I sure do.  I don't know why though.  I guess it is just nice to get something for free for a change.  Whenever I place an order at iHerb.com I click on their "Free" link which at the top of their main page in the center and they have a whole bunch of free samples to try.  Even if you don't order any free items, they will add free samples to your shipment anyway.

On my most recent order  I received three powdered mixes from Madre Labs - Acai Heart, Madre-C, and Immune Punch.  These mixes are supposed to have some positive health benefits and have the latest "hot" ingredients like resveratrol, acai, and some exotic mushroom extracts but  I never notice any difference when I take this stuff so it is either great marketing or the effects are too subtle for me to notice.

I have tried all three of these mixes before and mixed them each with water and they were terrible.  The instructions recommend mixing with water, juice, or smoothie so  this time around I mixed them in a fruit smoothie (fresh squeezed orange juice, organic strawberries and frozen red grapes).  This worked much better.  It didn't make the flavor worse like it did with the water and if anything it may have enhanced the flavor of the smoothie. 

So overall, I would recommend giving these mixes a try in your smoothies but do not mix with plain water.  Btw, if you are looking to make a purchase on iHerb.com - they have great prices and a huge selection of natural products and supplements - be sure to use the coupon code KEN707 to save $5 on your first order.  Click here for a link to the free samples.
