Nextra® NeoRetinol – Exceeding Expectations
Nextra® NeoRetinol Discovery – Better Than Retinol “I am in my 60’s and have been using Retinol for decades. By far, it is the best skincare product ever invented. I have purchased Retinol in tiny tubes for over $300 each for years, and it has been worth it until Nextra® NeoRetinol. When Bob Root researched and invented NeoRetinol, I was skeptical; how was it possible to recreate a Retinol that can be used every day, in the sun and without side effects. I started using Nextra NeorRetinol over a year ago, and I use it…

“Best Of” Are Fake News
Those full page "articles" in magazines and eZines showing products strewn about with the headline Best Of xxx. Many say "editors choice or editors pick." The one thing they all have in common is they are fake purchased advertising. They are not editor picks, they are bought positioning.

“Blue Babies” Therapy May Help!
Using a regulatory pathway that allows patients with life-threatening conditions to use unapproved therapies, the FDA has granted “emergency expanded access” to Bellerophon Therapeutics’ inhaled nitric oxide delivery system for treating the novel coronavirus. Also known as compassionate use, the agency’s policy is typically administered on a per-patient basis—at times when clinical trials are infeasible, the benefits are seen to outweigh the risks, and there are no available alternatives. According to Bellerophon, the FDA’s decision now opens up its INOpulse system for use at high-doses in ventilated COVID-19 patients, immediately.

Micelle Cleansers – Beware Petroleum Micelle’s
Micelle Cleansing Everywhere you read, people are introducing micellar water, micellar cleansers, and micellar tonics. Funny, when we launched our Island Rx Micellar cleanser 16 years ago, not many listened or cared. What did happen, though, is that it became one of our top selling products because of our vegan micellar structure. The reason for that is that micelle in the soap makes it clean deeper and leaves the skin not harmed like chemical-based detergent facial cleansers. Micelle is Not a Chemical Over the years, the general first question we get about Island Rx, MetaClean,…

Keto Plus – New Book by Keys, Bob Root
I decided to create my own version of Keto by combining the Keto Diet, Intermittent Fasting and giving up sugar. When I told friends, they said I should write about it. So, I took a few days off over the New Years break to write Keto Plus. It is a short book of more the why and how I did it versus justification. If you are looking for a way to drop pounds quickly, this $3.99 Kindle read might just help you understand the process. The references to the guru's I found are worth the…

Chemical Hormone Disrupters in Skincare
The Dirty Dozen have grown to the Dirty 100. Among these chemicals are parabens used as preservatives, phthalates used as fragrance enhancement, and fire retardants. All purported to disrupt hormones. Cancer is the big one, but phthalates in young men's fragrances are theoretically the cause for lack of sexual development at puberty and beyond. To my surprise, when I found out that BP-A might be a hormone disrupter to insulin, it got my real attention. Could BP-A or another chemical cause tpe 2 diabetes? The research is obscure, but staggering.

Keys Epigenetic Skincare Products – Functional Skin Health
There are many things that we can do in our lives to change our genetic processes. We have found that one of the significant enigmas as humans is inflammation. It is measurable, but at the same time, very distant and diverse. Inflammation is external chemical factors or internal changes like stress. Stress itself is unusual because anything the afflicts itself on our bodies is stress in a form. We have found that many chemicals used in skincare are often looked at as benign when viewed by itself and in micro quantities. However, when combined in…
