Golden Greens Organic – Organic Prebiotic Inulin Fibre

A little while ago here on The Amazing Blog, we wrote about one of our favourite supplements the Organic Golden Turmeric from Golden Greens and recently, we also featured their Expert Collagen Complex. We like to keep a watchful eye for new product launches from our friends at  Golden Greens as we particularly like their ethos, and as our regular readers will know, we also like to support SME brands. This organic company was founded by two individuals, who noticed the incredible benefits adding more super-foods to their diets had. Today we're happy to share another great product from Golden Greens range, their Golden Green’s Organic Prebiotic Inulin Fibre. This is a slightly sweet powder, that is rich in fibre and can be mixed into water/smoothies or sprinkled over food. The powder can help to add a lot of flavour and nutrients to your diet.

The Organic Prebiotic Inulin Fibre found it's way into our morning smoothies getting the day off to a good start! Fibre, the star ingredient in this powder, is known to improve digestive health. It also helps to prevent heart disease, diabetes, certain cancers, and weight gain. The Prebiotic Inulin Fibre is perfect for people of all dietary needs; as it is gluten-free, lactose-free, vegan, non-GMO, 100% natural, and certified organic by the Soil Association.

In addition, to adding the  Golden Green’s Organic Prebiotic Inulin Fibre to a morning smoothie it can also be taken before bedtime, to promote a healthier and more sound night's sleep. We suggest taking the fibre 90 minutes before you plan on going to sleep. You can simply add the powder to a glass of water or warm milk.  This Prebiotic Inulin Fibre is a fantastically easy and delicious way to make sure that you get your daily dose of fibre. Each packet contains 250g of powder or 50 servings. Golden Greens Organic Prebiotic Inulin Fibre is available here for £12.99.

White Glo – Charcoal Deep Stain Remover Toothpaste

Recently, we've seen charcoal being used in just about everything! We’ve seen charcoal in ice cream, face masks, and beverages etc. So when we heard about White Glo’s Charcoal Deep Stain Remover Toothpaste, we knew that we had to try it. Here at The Amazing Blog we're always looking for new ways to brighten our smile, and this toothpaste looked like a great solution. White Glo was founded in Australian in 1993 by Barros Laboratories Pty Ltd; they were the first brand to introduce consumer teeth whitening products into Australia. The brand prides itself on making highly effective products at an affordable price and this their Charcoal Deep Stain Remover Toothpaste is just one of many oral products that they market. 

As surprising as it may sound, putting black charcoal on your teeth actually helps to correct discolouration. One of the main ingredients used in the toothpaste is activated charcoal. Activated charcoal provides many benefits for the teeth; it is able to remove deep stains, prevent bad breath, and whiten tooth enamel. Stains and bacteria are drawn to the activated charcoal which removes them from the teeth and creates a whiter smile. This toothpaste has a low-abrasion formula that is a safe way to whiten teeth while still protecting against cavities and bad breath. We liked the fresh taste, this toothpaste left our mouths feeling clean, refreshed and our teeth looking brighter! 

A pack of White Glo Charcoal Deep Stain Remover Toothpaste also includes a toothbrush and a set of dental flosser toothpicks. We'd definitely recommend this product for not only performance but also the taste. You can buy a 150g tube of White Glo’s Charcoal Deep Stain Remover Toothpaste for yourself in person at Boots for £5 here or from ASDA or Tesco.

Kansha Alchemy - Good Hair Nutrient Complex

Here at The Amazing Blog, we are always looking for products that can really help make every day, a good hair day. So we were super excited to receive the Kansha Alchemy Good Hair Nutrient Complex. We were sent a 1 month supply of this special vitamin complex that helps to encourage the growth of thick, healthy hair. Kansha Alchemy was founded by Carol Harrison and Ann-Louise Holland. Ann-Louise noticed that her hair was thinning and Carol lost her hair due to treatment for breast cancer. These women spent a significant amount of time researching and working with trichologists and hair growth experts in order to create a product that promotes healthy hair, while also working to prevent thinning and shedding. We're inspired by their stories and are excited to see what comes next from Kansha Alchemy. 

The Good Hair Pills contain a unique blend of over 20 carefully selected essential vitamins, minerals and herbs such as selenium, silica, zinc and keratin building amino acids. These ingredients help to keep hair in the anagen phase of the hair growth cycle, meaning that there is far less hair shedding. The pills also contain DHT blockers that work to decrease your sensitivity to DHT (a key cause of balding). As we took the pills, they were easy on the stomach and didn't leave us feeling sickly like some hair supplements can.

With the 1 month supply at £32.99 we took 2 pills every day. However, we would recommend taking a 3 month supply at £88.99, so that you can really see the full benefits. Due to their popularity, the product is currently (10.04.2018) out of stock. However, Kansha Alchemy is working to bring it back in stock as soon as possible. For now, you can add your email to the wait list to get more information about when the product is back in stock. 

Drasanvi - Chia Seeds and Collmar-Cao

As we make our way further into 2018, it’s easy to forget those resolutions we made back in January. No matter what your goal for the year is, it’s never too late to add a health kick to your list, as it’s usually around this time of year when we need to give our body that little boost from Mother Nature. At The Amazing Blog, our secret to maintaining our health and keeping our energy levels up is the Drasanvi Chia Seeds and the chocolate drink Collmar-Cao. Drasanvi is a Spanish brand that has been producing high-quality food supplements for over 20 years and we already know we adore their Collmar Marine Collagen line, so we can say with certainty it's a brand we trust. Their teams are made up of biologists, chemists and nutritionists constantly researching to improve the formulas of their products or to find new ways of extracting natural active ingredients from plants, fruits and minerals.

Collmar-Cao is a food supplement made with pure cacao. This drink powder is enriched with vitamins C, B2, B6, B12 as well as magnesium, calcium, iron and marine collagen. Therefore it's not just super yummy but also benefits your whole body and well-being. The Collmar-Cao is also packed with proteins and minerals, which will boost your metabolism and combat fatigue. The chocolatey flavour makes it an ideal addition to your breakfast; just add to your milk of choice, hot or cold, stir, and enjoy. 

The Chia Seeds are a must have superfood for anyone looking for a quick and easy way to get in some much needed nutrients. Chia Seeds are naturally packed with vitamins, Omega 3, 6, 9 and minerals including iron and magnesium. In addition to being a great source of fibre and protein, these seeds have a delightfully subtle nutty flavour that goes well with a wide range of recipes. Simply add them to your daily oatmeal, smoothie, and even juices or soak them and watch as they expand into a gel that is perfect for baking. The seeds are free from sugar, preservatives and colouring and have earned their superfood title for a reason.

We all know breakfast is the most important meal of the day and getting it in is key to leading a healthy lifestyle, which is why we adore how easy both of these supplements make it for us to achieve our goals. You can purchase the Chia Seeds here for £9.95 and the Collmar-Cao here for £14.95.
