As pioneers of seasonality, sustainability, and local sourcing, Le Manoir's new business relationship with RBW reflects its core business practices.

The hotel received two Michelin stars when it first opened in 1984 which it has maintained ever since and has trained 28 Michelin starred chefs. Surrounded by lawns, flower borders and orchards, Le Manoir's setting in the Oxfordshire countryside is considered picture-perfect. It is the hotel's pioneering approach to farm-to-table that provides the kitchen and the acclaimed Raymond Blanc Cookery School with ultra-fresh, organic produce that guarantees its restaurant remains at the cutting edge of culinary excellence.

In addition to its organic culinary practices, Le Manoir is an industry leader in sustainable initiatives, and its new business relationship with RBW EV Cars further showcases that commitment to accelerating its journey towards becoming net zero. The RBW Roadster was custom built for Le Manoir and is a classic British convertible which features a custom walnut dash, hand-stitched leather interior, bespoke alloy wheels and a soft top. Guests of Le Manoir can enjoy excursions and tours of the countryside which are built into the navigation system. This can be accompanied with a picnic from Le Manoir using local produce.

"We're honoured to be selected by the Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons, a Belmond Hotel, as a business partner whose EV classic sports cars embody both the luxurious quality and the sustainable business practices the hotel's world renowned reputation is known for," said Peter Swain, CEO of RBW EV Cars.

NEW YORK, July 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Eastside Golf furthered its commitment to supporting the next generation of athletes today by announcing the signing of superstar young golfer Kihei Akina to its Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) athlete roster. Akina, ranked No. 1 in the 2025 class by Golfweek, now accompanies Temple University freshman Matthew Vital on Eastside Golf's NIL roster as the apparel brand continues to expand its platform supporting and sponsoring talented young golfers.

"Kihei is not just one of our country's best young golfers, but also a standout athlete who represents the bright future of our sport both on and off the course. He's an incredible player from an amazing family with major ambitions who puts in immense effort to be the best version of himself and someone kids look up to. Eastside Golf is honored to have him on our team," said Earl Cooper, Eastside Golf's co-founder and CEO.

"I'm proud to welcome Kihei and his family into Eastside Golf where our NIL program will bring him the access, mentorship, opportunities and financial support he deserves as he strives to be the best golfer he can be. Earl and I understand the grueling journey that golf can be for a young athlete, and we are excited to work with Kihei to support him as he continues to excel in the game," said Olajuwon Ajanaku, Eastside Golf's co-founder and creative director.

Akina, a native of Kahuku, Hawaii, and rising senior at Lone Peak High School in Highland, U.T., was named the 2023 USA Today National Boys High School Golfer of the Year. He has secured a pair of top-5 finishes in Junior tournaments already this year, including 1st place at the Nike Junior Invitational, and setting the course and tournament record at the Terra Cotta Invitational at Naples Golf Club, shooting a 62. He also advanced to the final qualifying round for the U.S. Open this year after shooting the second-best score (-3) at a local qualifying event. The rising senior has already committed to Brigham Young University.

"As someone who has worn their gear for years, it's exciting to now represent Eastside Golf on the course, " said Kihei Akina. "I admire how Eastside Golf is all about bringing the community and culture together as one. Their values and how they want to bring opportunities to those who previously may not have had them closely align with my goals. I want to be a model to younger people and grow the game of golf, and I'm pumped to be able to do so alongside Earl, Olajuwon and their entire team. Plus, their gear is fire, both on and off the course."

"Eastside Golf shows that you can dress how you feel comfortable and be welcome in the golf world," said Alan Akina, Kihei's father. "Earl and Olajuwon are breaking down the barriers that too often exist in the sport. As a dad, that made me feel entirely comfortable with and excited about Kihei partnering with Eastside Golf. We love what they stand for and have a shared vision of how to push the game of golf forward."

Founded in 2019 by former Morehouse College golf teammates Olajuwon Ajanaku and PGA of America Golf Professional Earl Cooper, Eastside Golf is transforming public perceptions of golf, actively reshaping the cultural dialogue surrounding the game to support more inclusivity and diversity, and creating more authentic opportunities to bring a broader audience into the game to grow the sport for generations to come. Eastside Golf is deeply committed to supporting and spotlighting HBCU golf through events and partnerships and has donated a cumulative $300,000 to support the Morehouse College golf team.

The organization's apparel has been embraced by golf professionals, former presidents, celebrities, fashion influencers and professional athletes alike, including NBA stars Chris Paul and Jayson Tatum, NFL great Victor Cruz, musician DJ Khaled, and former President Barack Obama. Its success is further underscored by notable relationships with global brands including seven collaborations with Jordan Brand, and strategic partnerships and licensing deals with major entities such as the NBA, MLB, and Mercedes Benz. Eastside Golf was profiled in Hulu's "Grails: When Sneakers Change the Game," a six-episode docuseries on how Ajanaku and Cooper are driving social and cultural change in golf.

Jackson's achievement places him alongside animation pioneers like Walt Disney ("Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs"), Mitsuyo Seo ("Momotaro: Sacred Sailors"), and John Lasseter ("Toy Story"). "DreadClub" tells the story of Betty Gray, a college student drawn into a doomed romance with a man on trial for being a vampire, blending romance, courtroom drama, and supernatural thrills.

"'DreadClub' isn't your typical vampire romance," Jackson asserts. "It's a raw, unfiltered exploration of truth versus lies, reality vs. fantasy. Betty is drawn to Duchamps just like we are drawn to A.I."

This landmark project showcases AI's potential to democratize filmmaking. Created entirely by Jackson, "DreadClub" comprises over 17,000 AI-generated images, with all video, performances, music and sound AI-generated. The film was produced for a mere $405—a fraction of the $1.5 to $2.5 million estimated budget for traditional production methods.

Despite its technological achievements, Jackson emphasizes "DreadClub" stands on its own merits. "Anyone can enjoy it without knowing it's AI," he says.

The film follows a group of college kids trapped on campus during summer break. When bodies start turning up, they get caught up in a vampire murder mystery.

"Protagonist Betty Gray grew up enamored with classic gothic love stories. She falls into a world of passion she thought was only possible in stories."

His favorite scene: "The vampire fashion show. The AI was giving me so many interesting costumes that I wanted to show them off all at once."

"DreadClub" builds upon Jackson's previous AI milestone, "Window Seat" (July 2023), the first fully AI feature film ever made, demonstrating remarkable technological progress in just one year. "People ridiculed 'Window Seat,' for its raw machine generated video, not realizing it was part of a larger vision," Jackson notes. "They are meant to serve as milestones showing the rapid evolution of AI filmmaking."

The film's release ignites crucial discussions about animation's future, AI's role in creative industries, and democratized film production. It challenges traditional studios to innovate beyond "sequels and reboots."

Jackson addresses industry concerns head-on: "When CGI streamlined technology in the '90s, entire professions became obsolete. There was no pity then. AI is simply another tool, like CGI software. We're not aiming to match Hollywood – but to inject much needed adrenaline into its creative stagnation."

Looking ahead, Jackson plans an even more ambitious project: a Pixar-style CG animated film using AI. "On both 'DreadClub' and 'Window Seat', I started production before they were possible, then part way in, I carved out a path. A fully CG animated film is the most ambitious challenge due to the technical complexity."

"DreadClub: Vampire's Verdict" premieres this July on major streaming platforms. For more information, visit its page on IMDB.

His portfolio includes the live-action feature "Aimy in a Cage" starring Crispin Glover, the novel "The Unweddable Chattaway Girls," and "Window Seat," the first fully AI-generated feature film.

Pompa Program

PARK CITY, Utah, July 19, 2024 (Newswire.com) - In his detailed blog titled "Which Food Ingredients To Avoid," Dr. Daniel Pompa, founder of the Pompa Program, the world leader in cellular detox and cellular healing, references studies on which food ingredients to avoid.

While artificial sweeteners are often marketed as a healthier alternative to sugar, their negative effects cannot be ignored. Studies have shown that these sweeteners contribute to health issues such as bladder problems, gut bacteria disruption, and increased cravings for sugary foods.

Colorants such as Tartrazine (E102), Carmine (E120), Sunset Yellow (E110), Titanium Dioxide (E171), and Allura Red (E129) are commonly used in processed foods but have negative effects on our health. Studies have linked these artificial and natural colorants to allergic reactions, hyperactivity in children, and negative impacts on the digestive and immune systems.

Processed meats, also known as preserved meats, are those that undergo preservation techniques to extend their shelf life. While these methods enhance flavor and longevity, they often contain high levels of preservatives like nitrates and nitrites which have been linked to health concerns. Additionally, processed meats are high in sodium and lack the nutrients found in fresh meat, increasing the risk of chronic diseases.

High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is a sweetener that is widely used in processed foods and beverages. It is derived from corn starch and undergoes a process to convert some of its glucose into fructose, making it sweeter than regular sugar. However, despite its origins from a natural source like corn, HFCS has been linked to various health concerns and should be avoided.

Avoiding vegetable oils is crucial for maintaining good health due to their high levels of omega-6 fatty acids, which lead to inflammation. Completely avoid using vegetable oils in your diet. Instead, opt for healthier alternatives such as olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil. 

Visit our blog for details and to read more about research studies on which food ingredients to avoid. Also, visit https://pompaprogram.com/ to find out more about the Pompa Program.

In 2020, Pompa Program was launched as a family-run business to transform lives by helping clients and others in our global community restore the extraordinary healing potential God gave to the human body.

WILLIAMSBURG, Va., June 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Jamestown Settlement, a museum of 17th-century Virginia, is embarking on a multiyear restoration of the Susan Constant, flagship of the official fleet of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

After 33 years of maritime education, the "floating classroom" will travel as early as June 15 to the Henry B. du Pont Preservation Shipyard at Mystic Seaport Museum in Connecticut to begin work over the next two years to preserve it for future generations. The $4.7 million undertaking to repair and restore the wooden, 120-ton cargo vessel, was approved this spring by the Virginia General Assembly, and a fundraising effort is underway to support maritime education while the ship is away.

Under the helm of Captain Eric Speth, longtime director of Maritime Operations for the Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation, a 15-member sailing crew will take the estimated 515-mile journey over a period of four to five days, weather permitting. Instead of sails, they will travel using diesel engines to reach their destination.

"Thanks to our highly dedicated and qualified paid and volunteer crew, Susan Constant was transformed from a museum exhibit to a fully operable ship ready for the trip to Mystic Seaport Museum where it will undergo restoration and be prepared for its next chapter of service teaching early Virginia history," Speth said.

Since its commissioning on April 25, 1991, the Susan Constant has welcomed an estimated 19 million visitors – schoolchildren, presidents and even royalty – over the past three decades to climb aboard the re-created merchant ship. From the main deck, 'tween deck and peering into its hold, guests learn about the 17th-century technology used to sail and navigate the square-rigged ship across the ocean during the 1607 voyage to Jamestown.

In Jamestown Settlement's 67-year history, there have been two generations of the Susan Constant, one built in Norfolk in 1957 and the other, built at Jamestown Settlement in 1990, is still in use today. The Susan Constant, along with re-creations of the Godspeed and the Discovery, were designated as the "official fleet of the Commonwealth" by the Virginia General Assembly in 2001.

Shipyard Selection for the Susan Constant

Mystic Seaport Museum's shipyard, which works exclusively on wooden ships, has been a leader in maritime preservation for more than half a century and is ideally suited for large wooden vessel restoration projects like Jamestown Settlement's Susan Constant.

While Virginia has a rich history in shipbuilding and repair, existing shipyards in the state capable of accommodating a project the size of the Susan Constant have shifted their workforce to focus on modern naval and commercial metal vessels, Speth explained.

The Susan Constant is inspected annually by the U.S. Coast Guard and routinely maintained by staff shipwrights, mechanics and volunteers, with a thorough dry-dock inspection every five years. Work last spring entailed stabilizing the wood and painting the ship's hull. Dry-dock inspections found the ship needs a comprehensive restoration to repair its hull planking, upper framing, mast and rigging components, and other pivotal hull structures. Fortunately, wooden ships are constructed in a way that allows cost-effective removal and renewal of deteriorated parts, Speth said. 

During restoration of Mystic Seaport Museum's ship, the Charles W. Morgan, now 183 years old, shipwrights found evidence of prior "re-toppings," where planking above the waterline and some of the structure's hull were replaced. The Susan Constant will similarly be "re-topped" to extend the ship's useful service life for at least another 20-30 years.

Speth explained that restoring a wooden ship in this manner is far less costly than replacement, which could total three to four times the estimated cost of the Susan Constant's restoration. 

The Susan Constant is moored at the Jamestown Settlement ships' pier, alongside re-creations of the Godspeed and Discovery. Until its departure, visitors can see the ship from the pier as the crew prepare the ship for its next journey. While the Susan Constant is away, the Godspeed and Discovery will allow guests to explore 17th-century maritime history.

Located on Route 31 south of Williamsburg along the James River, the expansive museum features immersive gallery exhibits, artifacts, films and interactives that explore the convergence of Virginia Indians, English and West Central African cultures in the 1600s and living-history experiences in outdoor re-creations of a Paspahegh town, English fort and, at the ships' pier, re-creations of the Godspeed and Discovery.

• Party Hosts: Every Posh Party LIVE is led by ten hand-picked Party Hosts who embrace their personal style and perspective to curate live shows and listings. Party Hosts guide the LIVE party by selecting Host Picks, which are displayed prominently, and by hosting live Posh Shows where they auction trending listings and spotlight other sellers.

Pompa Program

PARK CITY, Utah, July 3, 2024 (Newswire.com) - In his detailed blog titled "Heavy Metals Cause Brain Fog - Think Clearly Again By Removing Heavy Metals From The Brain", Dr. Daniel Pompa, founder of the Pompa Program, the world leader in cellular detox and cellular healing, references studies on how heavy metals cause brain fog.

Heavy metals, a group of toxic substances including lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury, and aluminum, pose serious threats to the health of the central nervous system. These hazardous elements have a strong tendency to bind with proteins in the brain, causing disruption to their normal functioning. Numerous studies have linked exposure to heavy metals with a wide range of neurological symptoms. This includes fatigue, irritability, depression, anxiety, and difficulties with concentration and focus commonly known as brain fog.

Studies have indicated that mercury is one of the most harmful neurotoxins. One of the reasons why mercury has such a detrimental impact on our bodies is because of its ability to bind with important molecules in our cells. This disruption in cellular functions has a cascading effect on the body, leading to a range of neurological symptoms such as brain fog. 

Aluminum, long considered safe, is commonly used in many consumer goods and personal care products. Disturbing new research indicates there is a link between high levels of aluminum in the body and cognitive impairment. 

One study found that glyphosate increases the permeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which is responsible for protecting our brain from harmful substances. Glyphosate allows even more toxic heavy metals to enter the brain, leading to further neurodegeneration.

Dr. Pompa developed his 5Rs technique for removing toxic heavy metals from the brain. Removing these neurotoxins is the key to reversing brain fog and other neurodegenerative conditions.

In 2020, Pompa Program was launched as a family-run business to transform lives by helping clients and others in our global community restore the extraordinary healing potential God gave to the human body.

He said, "Design acts as a brand's promise, embodying the brand's unity and serving as a conduit for cross-border exchanges and enhancing the brand's value. It facilitates international communication, underscoring the pivotal role of design in branding. Design is not just aesthetics; it is culture, and branding is fundamentally about communication."

BEND, Ore., July 3, 2024 (Newswire.com) - The veterinarians at the Veterinary Referral Center of Central Oregon have received advanced training in a range of different specialties, however, one particular subject may come as a surprise. A group of veterinarians recently completed a course to receive their Oregon alcohol servers permit in order to tend bar at Ponch’s Place, VRCCO’s beer and food truck pavilion. 

You may be wondering why this hospital or these veterinarians have a desire to serve beer. You can find the answer straight from the company’s core values: personalized experience, beyond expectations, one team, compassion and education. Interestingly, their participation at Ponch’s Place connects to each one of these values. 

Ponch’s Place and VRCCO plan to hold "meet the vet" nights:Doctor Rounds at Ponch's Place throughout the year to benefit their Care Fund. Proceeds of the beer poured will go toward providing medical services to Central Oregon’s pets that are in need of financial support. VRCCO started this fund from a place of compassion. Using their one team mentality, their staff is determined to help this initiative succeed. The more awareness and support they can achieve, the more animals will benefit from their work.

Ponch’s Place provides VRCCO the opportunity to educate the public about their philanthropic efforts. Additionally, "meet the vet" nights will offer educational opportunities and a chance for pet parents to ask questions about the hospital and the services their organization provides. 

VRCCO understands that the relationship between a parent and a veterinarian is often made through stressful experiences with their pets. Ponch’s Place gives VRCCO the ability to create these experiences that hopefully exceed expectations, eliminate stress, and allow pet parents to enjoy some time (over a beer) with their veterinarian.

Ponch’s Place was also created as a space for their team and the community to gather and connect. Doctor Rounds at Ponch's Place is a way to strengthen this connection and provide more personalized experiences with VRCCO. The Veterinary Referral Center feels fortunate to have the ability to create these unique events that will foster the relationships they hope to build in Central Oregon. 

VRCCO hopes that you will come out to “meet the vet” for the next Doctor Rounds at Ponch's Place on Thursday, July 18, 2024, from 6 p.m. - 8 p.m. during trivia night with QuizHead Games.

TheVeterinary Referral Center of Central Oregonoffers the most advanced emergency and specialty care options to members of the Central Oregon community and beyond. The VRCCO Care Fund uses 100% of its funds to provide financial assistance to pet parents facing financial hardship in their community. The funds raised will provide medical services to the neglected, abused and financially constrained animals with otherwise good prognoses that find their way into the VRCCO Emergency and Specialty Hospital. To learn more about this initiative, to donate or attend VRCCO’s annual gala, please visit: www.vrcvet.com/donations.

SYDNEY, July 20, 2024 (Newswire.com) - Zaki Ameer, Founder of DDP Property, says that the "role of buyer agents in real estate transactions is critical, providing expertise, negotiation skills, and an unbiased perspective for buyers." While the concept is well-established in the United States, Australia needs to catch up in both the prevalence of buyers agents and the overall structure of the real estate market. This disparity highlights the need for Australia to reform its real estate market to serve its consumers better.

The Prevalence of Buyers Agents in the United States

In the United States, buyer agents are a standard real estate transaction process component. They represent the buyer's interests, ensuring that they secure the best possible deal. According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), there are over 1.5 million real estate agents in the U.S., with a significant portion working as buyers agents. This widespread availability of buyers agents offers several advantages:

1. Expertise and Market Knowledge: Buyers agents have in-depth knowledge of local markets, helping clients navigate the complexities of property purchasing.
2. Negotiation Skills: They possess strong negotiation skills, often securing better client deals and terms.
3. Time-Saving: Buyers agents handle finding and vetting properties, saving buyers considerable time and effort.
4. Objective Advice: Buyer's agents provide unbiased advice because they do not have a vested interest in selling a particular property.

The Australian Real Estate Landscape

Ameer says, "In contrast, Australia has a relatively low number of buyers agents. While the exact number is hard to pinpoint, it is clear that the role is not as entrenched in the real estate market as it is in the United States." Several factors contribute to this situation:

1. Lack of Awareness: Many Australian buyers need to be made aware of the existence or benefits of buyers agents.
2. Cost Concerns: The additional cost of hiring a buyers agent can deter potential clients, even though the long-term savings and advantages often outweigh the initial expense.
3. Market Structure: The Australian real estate market is more seller-centric, with most agents working to secure the best deal for sellers.

DDP Property aims to resolve the above disadvantages by offering its services to everyday Australians to ensure they are well represented when purchasing one of the most significant financial decisions a buyer may make.

Matthew Cappucci, MyRadar

ORLANDO, Fla., July 18, 2024 (Newswire.com) - As anticipation builds for tomorrow's theater release of “Twisters,” MyRadar offers the exclusive opportunity for weather enthusiasts to live out their storm-chasing fantasy. The Ultimate Storm-Chasing Adventure contest promises one lucky winner an adrenaline-pumping experience to chase storms alongside an expert MyRadar storm chaser. 

The timing of this contest aligns perfectly with the release of “Twisters,” the highly anticipated sequel to the 1996 blockbuster. As movie-goers prepare to be thrilled by Hollywood’s depiction of storm chasing, MyRadar provides a real-life adventure with a grand prize that includes a trip for two to chase tornadoes with MyRadar’s senior meteorologist, Matthew Cappucci, a renowned storm chaser and correspondent of The Washington Post’s Capital Weather Gang. 

"If you've ever seen a viral tornado video and wondered what being up close might be like, this is your shot," said Cappucci. "The winner will experience the thrill of the chase in nature's biggest classroom — the atmosphere. This once-in-a-liftime opportunity will provide the chance to encounter wild supercells, mega hail and possibly a strategic tornado intercept."

The contest’s prize package includes the following:

• Round-trip airfare for two within the United States (up to $600 per person). 
• Hotel accommodations to live like a storm chaser for up to five nights. 
• Up to five days riding alongside a MyRadar designated storm chaser. The specific dates and locations will be arranged with the winner to ensure the most spectacular weather events. 

The sweepstakes run from now through Dec. 15. U.S. residents 18 and older can enter once weekly by filling out the entry form on MyRadar’s website. The winner will be randomly selected on or about Dec. 16. 

The trip will be tailored to conducive weather conditions and will last a minimum of three days during the April-June 2025 severe weather season. The MyRadar team, led by experienced professionals like Cappucci, prioritizes safe and responsible storm-chasing practices and educational opportunities throughout the experience.

“It's nature, so there are no guarantees on what exactly you'll see, but odds are you'll see something pretty cool,” Cappucci added. “Plus, you’ll be learning every step of the way — about safe positioning, forecasting, navigating and what it's like to be a storm chaser.”

MyRadar will also host an educational webinar titled “Tornado Movies: Fact or Fiction,” which will explore the accuracy of tornado portrayals in popular films and separate sensationalized Hollywood myths from scientific facts on Friday, Aug. 2, at 3 p.m. EDT. Led by Cappucci, the informative webinar will break down iconic tornado scenes, discussing what moviemakers got right and where they missed the mark.

New Parenting Course App and Original Preschool Animated Series 'Zip and the Tiny Sprouts' Launched

NEW YORK, July 18, 2024 (Newswire.com) - Tiny Souls Media Inc., a start-up specializing in children’s media and educational resources for caregivers, launched its first episodes of an original preschool animated series entitled Zip and the Tiny Sprouts last month on YouTube. The series is written and directed by K Love You Bye’s Peter Johnston and Kyle Logan with Chris Bennett (Bluey) as animation director. Zip and the Tiny Sprouts aims to entertain young audiences while supporting their learning and social-emotional development. The series will feature 26 seven-minute episodes set in the whimsical Harmony Hollow, released every other weekend on YouTube and the YouTube Kids app. Additional content such as sing-alongs and craft videos are also featured on the channel to help families learn and grow together.

Each episode features meaningful stories and original music on themes like patience, perseverance and gratitude, and is grounded in established curriculum frameworks and developmental psychology research. Lacey Mason (Sesame Workshop, Dodo Kids), Head of Development and Production at Tiny Souls Media, shared, “Each episode of Zip and the Tiny Sprouts is thoughtfully crafted with humor and heart. We have an extremely talented art and animation team making the Sprouts and their world come to life in fantastic, endearing and relatable ways.”

“We are thrilled to launch this unique animated series alongside a robust offering of resources and activities that empower caregivers and educators of young children to learn about important themes that can create a solid foundation for their well-being,” said Shadi Toloui-Wallace, founder and Chief Creative Officer of Tiny Souls Media. 

The show has already become a YouTube sensation with the first five episodes garnering over 1.5 million views within the first month of its release. “The reception to it has been just wonderful. But there’s no time to rest. Our journey is just getting started and we’ve got lots of funny, heartfelt and thoughtful stories to share,” said Animation Director and writer Chris Bennett.

SPRINGFIELD, Ohio, July 18, 2024 (Newswire.com) - All-In Nutritionals LLC, creators of highly effective and potent natural supplements, such as Ancient Energy, Bitter Apricot Kernels, EZ Plant Protein, and Magnesium Glycinate Plus, announced today the addition of another groundbreaking product. They have stepped into the Hydrogen Water arena and have launched their portable, rechargeable hydrogen water generator.  

Hydrogen Water has become quite popular on social networks and in the media. It has also created a significant amount of chatter in the advanced circles of natural health enthusiasts. So much so that, earlier this year, PubMed published an article titled, “Hydrogen Water: Extra Healthy or a Hoax?” This article highlighted a systematic review that was conducted to determine if believed health benefits, such as its antioxidant properties, are valid. Although further research is needed, the findings of this review were very favorable.  

Lindsey Duncan, CEO of All-In Nutritionals, agrees with the favorable findings. “Pure and/or alkaline water is great for you and has many benefits, but it’s still deficient in some very important areas. Hydrogen water is a revolutionary way to stay hydrated and feel great. I personally have been drinking hydrogen water for a couple of years now and am proud to say that All-In Nutritionals is current with the most recent natural wellness innovative science. Our new Hydro Bottle + is a perfect example of this.”  

What exactly is Hydrogen Water?  Simply put, hydrogen water is water that has been infused with molecular hydrogen. This is also known as H2 gas, which is completely natural. By adding hydrogen to water, it may help to increase the health benefits by its potential antioxidant properties, among other promising benefits. In addition, hydrogen molecules are extremely small, which makes them more easily absorbed into the body’s cells and tissues.  

Duncan states that while the science of hydrogen water is progressive, the process is quite simple. “This is an electron process where the water is split into hydrogen and water gases. Hydrogen can potentially act as an antioxidant by neutralizing harmful free radicals in our bodies. Free radicals cause oxidative stress which is linked to premature aging and a whole host of health issues. Molecular hydrogen may potentially target the most harmful free radicals selectively and therefore reduce oxidative stress.”

Due to the increased popularity and awareness of hydrogen water, many options for obtaining this water are currently on the market, such as dissolvable hydrogen tablets, drops, and various hydrogen generators.

Duncan explained why All-In Nutritionals Hydro Bottle + is a standout product as it relates to competitors’ products.

“There are a lot of hydrogen water products on the market right now. Many of these are making all kinds of health claims and are extremely expensive. I’ve seen a single hydrogen generator for as much as $400. Several reports also suggest that some hydrogen generator brands may generate chlorine. We have worked hard for over a year to create a pure and clean hydrogen generator that is extremely effective, simple to use, portable, budget-friendly, and produces quality hydrogen water.”

Duncan went on to explain how the efficacy of the Hydro Bottle + can be assessed and guaranteed.  

“Our hydrogen generator does not generate chlorine and every single bottle can be tested out with a basic ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential) meter.

Pompa Program

PARK CITY, Utah, July 18, 2024 (Newswire.com) - In his detailed blog titled "What Causes Acne - Hormone Dysregulation And Epigenetics," Dr. Daniel Pompa, founder of the Pompa Program, the world leader in cellular detox and cellular healing, references studies on what causes acne on the core level.

Genetic factors play a significant role in the development and severity of acne. Recent research has shown that certain genetic variations affect the production and sensitivity of hormones responsible for triggering acne. Specifically, genes related to immune system regulation and hormone production have been found to be closely linked with acne occurrence. In short, acne is an immune and endocrine system dysfunction.

Recent research has revealed a strong connection between epigenetic changes and the function of sebaceous glands. Epigenetic modifications disrupt these glands, leading to the overproduction of sebum.

One particular study found that individuals with severe acne had higher levels of DNA methylation in their skin cells compared to those with clear skin. This means that certain genes involved in regulating sebum production were turned off or suppressed in those with acne, causing an imbalance in sebum production and leading to breakouts.

Research has shown that certain EDCs, such as phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA),  disrupt the production of sebum and trigger inflammation in the skin. This combination drives acne symptoms because they trigger hormone dysfunction and epigenetic changes.

Studies have also shown that exposure to pesticides has been linked to a weakened immune system, contributing to excessive sebum production. It's important to be aware of the harm that pesticides cause and strive for organic and pesticide-free options whenever possible.

Zahra Marwan, And the angel squeezed all of the doubts out of him

SANTA FE, N.M., June 27, 2024 (Newswire.com) - Zahra Marwan’s dreamlike watercolors have always had a close relationship with the written word: the origin of her paintings is often a sparse yet evocative line of text. Born in Kuwait, Marwan is the author of Where Butterflies Fill the Sky (Bloomsbury Publishing NYC, 2022), which chronicles her family’s journey from Kuwait to Albuquerque, NM when she was a child, escaping discrimination in Kuwait where she and much of her family were considered stateless and were subject to open discrimination and discriminatory laws.

In her show at Hecho a Mano, Marwan’s skill for marrying language and art is evident in watercolor paintings centering roses and Arab poetry. Drawn from the seven Mu’allaqat—the ancient Suspended Odes that were hung in the Kaaba in Mecca and were so dear to the Arabs that they were written in gold—Marwan’s paintings evoke a feeling of awe and longing. 

Marwan describes the paintings’ mood as akin to Saadi Shirazi's Gulistān, or Rose Garden, a work composed of short prose in chapters. She was inspired, too, by an image from the medieval romantic epic The Romance of the Rose, in which the character Amant falls asleep and wakes up in the garden from his dream. Her paintings suggest the greater historical Andalusian influences and connection to Arabic poetry written on the Iberian Peninsula.

The show’s title comes from Gertrude Stein’s 1913 poem, “Sacred Emily,” which was inspired by Stein’s search for a new language in collaboration with Picasso. Marwan says she read the poem in Paris in October: “Fragmented and repetitive, it kept reappearing starkly in my life,” she says.  

Marwan has received several book awards and recognitions, including the New York Times/New York Public Library’s Best Illustrated Children’s Books of 2022. “Receiving news that my work was in the New York Times Ten Best Illustrated Books was really an absolute dream,” Marwan says, explaining that during the first few years she was sharing her work, she was told by publishers that it wasn’t a good fit for picture books, and by the fine art world that it wasn’t a good fit for galleries. “To see it be uplifted felt almost miraculous after so many eloquent rejections,” Marwan says. 

She also received the United Nations Human Rights Commission Art Award for creating art that uplifts statelessness in 2022. “We are handed down ancient poems, suspended odes in gold, our lives like a rose garden in chapters,” Marwan says. 

A Rose is a Rose is a Rose opens July 5, and is on view through July 29.
