Puritan’s Pride: Great Quality, Affordable Vitamins & Supplements

 

Disclosure: Items mentioned in this post were sent for review purposes only; all opinions are honest.

Puritan's Pride is a big nutritional supplement company that was founded over 50 years ago. Puritan’s Pride founder Arthur Rudolph realized that there was a huge demand for high quality supplements that were affordable and conveniently available.

Arthur Rudolph made his dream into a reality by using his extensive knowledge of the vitamin industry. He created the Puritan, a mail-order catalog company that allowed all residents of the United States to order safe & effective nutritional supplements without having to make a run to a vitamin store. They would be shipped right to their front door.

Working with consumers needs, Puritan's Pride made the transition from a mail-order catalog to a fully-featured website. Puritan's Pride maintains high customer support standards and offering one of the best return policies I’ve ever seen. You are able to return any product within a year of buying it- sealed or opened, for a complete refund.

 

Puritans Pride sent me 4 of their products; Ginger Root, Probiotic 10, Herbal Laxative, & Peppermint Tea.

No Artificial Color, Flavor or Sweetener, No Preservatives, No Sugar, No Starch, No Milk, No Lactose, No Soy, No Gluten, No Wheat, No Yeast, No Fish. Sodium Free.

Ginger Root (550 MG)

 

Ginger root is a popular, reputable remedy for a variety of illnesses and ailments. Some of those illnesses include; motion sickness, nausea, fever, indigestion, loss of appetite, and even chills, cold, and the flu. It helps with menstrual cramps, heartburn, boosting blood circulation, and even lowering blood pressure and cholesterol.

Ginger root is generally used for treating Dyspepsia, which is discomfort caused after eating. This discomfort includes gas, bloating, heartburn, and nausea. It is also amazing at preventing or relieving nausea from chemotherapy, pregnancy, motion sickness, and even surgery.

This is perfectly fine to take while pregnant, so you go ahead and relieve that terrible, horrible, no-good morning sickness. Instead of drinking ginger ale or eating candies that contain ginger- you can take this and avoid the extra calories and sugars.

Ginger is also a potent anti-inflammatory herb that helps relive pain associated with arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, headaches, and toothaches. So instead of taking pain relievers on a daily basis, Ginger is a natural way to relieve that pain.

The Puritan’s Pride Ginger Root supplement is a piece of cake to swallow, since it’s only about an inch long. It smells exceptional where vitamins are concerned, usually they smell like hay to me. This one doesn’t really have a smell, which I like.

The Puritan’s Pride Ginger Root is amazing because they are gelatin capsules. The capsule holds the pure milled ginger root powder inside. This is what keeps the smell and taste to a minimum. Which is great for people who don’t like the taste or smell of supplements. The capsule dissolves with no after-taste or side effects.

If you have problems swallowing and couldn’t possibly manage to swallow this, you can always use it in other ways that are just as beneficial. You can break open the capsule and use the powder to make it easier to consume. You can add it to a hot tea or even cook some pretty amazing stuff with it.

Ginger Tea, Ginger Honey Tea, Ginger Chicken Stir-Fry, Ginger Chicken Soup.. you name it, there’s probably a recipe that you’ll love.

Probiotic 10

For people concerned with their digestive health, Probiotic 10 is an amazing choice. It contains acidophilus and helps with the absorption of nutrients, encourages intestinal balance, and promotes healthy functioning of the intestinal system.

There are bacteria and other organisms that live normally in our bodies. These are the "Friendly" bacteria that help the break down of food while helping absorb more nutrients. You need these bacteria to keep you healthy and going strong.

Stress, disease, getting sick, poor diet, or medications such as antibiotics can weaken and reduce the amount of “friendly” bacteria in your body. If that happens your health won’t be balanced any longer; which  can result in bowel problems and even vaginal infections for women.

The “friendly” bacteria also help to fight "unfriendly" organisms that can cause diseases such as diarrhea. So keeping the amount of good bacteria inside your body balanced is definitely essential for your health.

Most people WANT to add a daily probiotic but couldn’t find an option that was high quality AND affordable. Puritan’s Pride is both. The Probiotic 10 contain 10 Probiotic Strains in one  easy to swallow capsule. That is over 20 Billion Live Probiotic Cultures to help keep you healthy.

If you are currently taking a liquid probiotic, put it down RIGHT now. You don’t have to taste that vile mess- (eeck). Why subject yourself to that if you don’t have to? These tiny white gel capsules contain absolutely no taste and are super easy to take. If it’s easier to take, don’t you think you’d WANT to take it?

Each bottle contains 120 pills and you take 2 at a time, so that ends up being 60 servings (60 days/ 2 months) per bottle. Buying Puritan’s Pride 3 bottles for the price of 1- will put each pill at only .12 each!

FYI: You can store the unopened container at room temperature. After the bottle is opened it HAS to be kept inside your refrigerator for the bacteria to be “live” when you take it.

Herbal Laxative

Herbal Laxative Tablets are used for the relief of the occasional constipation. Puritan’s Pride Herbal Laxatives consists of no harsh synthetics, so you can be absolutely certain of gentle, yet efficient relief.

Constipation can be caused by a variety of things; not drinking enough water, poor eating habits, not getting enough exercise, and consuming too many dairy products. There are even medications that cause constipation, so read your bottles carefully.

This product works the way nature intended. It does not cause excess gas or abdominal pains like other laxatives tend to do. I wish I’d had these after having both my kids. I had C-sections and they wouldn’t let me leave the hospital until I had a bowel movement. That was torture right there just taking those laxatives.

Health Review: Omega Infusion Water

I don’t know why but I drink WAY too much coffee. I like the taste, the warmth, and the energy. Having two kids under 6 and a 9 year old step son makes me want to be ON the go all the time.
It all caught up with me too quickly though. I actually FELT my body begging for more water. PLEASE it said.. enough with the caffeine- WE are dehydrated.. both YOU and I.
I was getting frequent headaches and was tired no matter HOW much coffee I was consuming. I was drinking water, but not enough to actually MEAN something to my body.
To top it off, I have a very high metabolism. So running around doing errands, running after kids, and keeping the house in order as well as working was leaving me exhausted as well. JUST water wasn’t helping put those essential nutrients back into my body that I was losing.
As a mom, I felt like it was my duty not only to drink more water to keep me healthy—but to SHOW my kids the right way to be. Adisyn loves water, but Aidan didn’t care for it.

So when I got a chance to review Omega Infusion Water I was all for it. Omega-3’s are VERY essential to the body, but the body doesn’t produce them. They are shown to reduce heart problems!! They can be found in fish or krill oils, but why not drink some water to go with it?
Omega Infusion Water is available in four flavors (citrus, fruit punch, berry and orange) and all of them are calorie FREE! YES—absolutely NO calories!

I really liked all of these waters, the yellow one WAS a bit tangy—but I can deal with it. I thought at first they might taste a little weird because one of the ingredients IS fish oil.. but I couldn’t detect anything like fish at all.

They ARE one of the most delicious flavored waters I have EVER tried. There’s only one other that I like—the others taste VERY bad. They taste like watered down fruit juice, but these didn’t.

They also sent me an Infusion Shot. This of course is a straight shot of Omega 3’s. With the water there is more liquid.. this is straight up. ach small 2 ounce bottle is 1 serving and has 250mg of Omega-3s EPA/DHA. I did find it a bit tangy, but again.. I can definitely take the tanginess.
If you’ve ever taken a 5 hour energy shot—this compares in taste to it. Instead of downing a shot of TONS of chemicals though, this is all natural.

Health Review: NeoCell Hyaluronic Acid Blueberry Liquid

Natural

• Skin Viscoelasticity

• Eye Health

Hyaluronic Acid (HA), is an important disaccharide found in every tissue or the body, in particular as an essential lubricant of healthy joints, skin, and eyes. 

• Firm your skin, reduce fine lines, smooth wrinkles, and improve skin disorders

• It lubricates joints to keep a spring in your step. It improves vision and dry eyes
• Pure hyaluronic acid carefully sourced from external tissue, rooster comb

Contains no starch, yeast, wheat, corn, cholesterol, or dairy products.

My Review

Researchers found that the NeoCell Hyaluronic Blueberry Acid can firm your skin, reduce fine lines, smooth wrinkles, and improve skin disorders. Although I’m not on the peak of “AGING” just yet, I try to take supplements and vitamins to keep the aging process at bay.

I was excited to try the NeoCell products because I’d seen them at GNC before, and I’ve seen tons of reviews from blogger friends who swear by them! They absolutely love them, and see quick results!

To drink, you can take one tablespoon daily, alone or mixed with six ounces of water, fruit juice or herbal tea. I’ve been mixing a tablespoon of this with juice on a daily basis, and can’t taste anything but the juice.

My skin, nails & hair have never looked & felt more amazing. I dye my hair on a monthly basis. I try to keep it dark, but after dying it I can tell it becomes a bit damaged and tends to get frizzy and unmanageable. Since I’ve been taking this (even with dying my hair twice since I’ve been using it).. NO damage!

My nails before this would peel and chip off from doing so many loads of dishes on a daily basis. Since I’ve been adding this supplement into my diet, I’ve noticed that my nails aren’t peeling or chipping at all! YAY!

I have a ton of back pain and even though I take my medicine, I was still experiencing pain. Since I’ve been drinking ONE juice glass with this added into it—the pain isn’t so strong!

 

About Neocell

Neocell was started in 1998 by founder and fearless leader Al Quadri, after an extraordinary personal experience. Al, a lifelong scientist and inventor, had just had major heart bypass surgery and was having a difficult time recovering. His time spent in the hospital had atrophied his muscles and his overall vitality was diminished. Al, being a scientist at heart, began researching Eastern alternative therapies to help him his recovery process. Al decided to incorporate collagen protein into his regimen after learning the integral role collagen plays in strengthening and rebuilding loss muscle mass and improving connective tissues.

Within just a few weeks, Al began to rapidly recover and regain his lost energy and vitality. Along with Al's recovery came a great inspiration, to start a company in the hopes that others could be helped by collagen supplementation, just as he had been. His goal was to create products that allowed people to live younger, longer. And so Neocell was born, as a small, research grounded, family-owned business with the idea of introducing the world to a premium quality, naturally-sourced, collagen based supplement line.

Review: Lady Soma Cranberry Concentrate with Vitamin C

If you've ever had a urinary tract infection, you know how irritating and painful it can be. There was nothing that I wanted more than relief from the pain. UTI’s are caused by bacteria and the bladder and urethra are most likely to become infected. Click here to see more causes of UTI’s.

How do you know if you have an UTI? Here are the signs and symptoms

Signs and Symptoms

• Frequent or painful urination
• Pain or pressure when urinating
• Not completing urination
• Cloudy/ Foul Smelling urine
• Blood present in urine
• Leaking urine
• Fever
• Pain or pressure in your lower abdomen (stomach).

Before I learned of the Lady Soma Cranberry Concentrate with Vitamin C, I would always have to go and get a round of antibiotics. When you don’t really have the money to go to the doctor and then pay for the antibiotics- because it can be pricey, Lady Soma is the best thing for treatment.

Just one pill a day can give you relief. The best thing about it is that 60 softgels of the Cranberry concentrate is under $13. That is WAY worth it. No more $50 co-pays for the doctor and $40-50 more for the antibiotics.

Taking one pill a day can also banish the bacteria that MAY be growing so that you don’t even have to bother with the pain. So if you feel it coming it on- just take one pill a day with a glass of water (OR one pill in the morning and one at night with a glass of water for intense treatment).

AND you’ll be feeling better in no time.

ABOUT THE LADY SOMA CRANBERRY CONCENTRATE WITH VITAMIN C

Each soft gel capsule is made with a 12:1 concentrate, which is equivalent to 5,050 milligrams of fresh cranberries.  Fortified with Vitamin C and Natural E.  Cranberries prevent bacteria from attaching to the bladder wall, promoting a healthy urinary tract.  May be taken as daily supplement.

Key Benefits

• Healthy Urinary Tract
• Inhibits bacteria
• Treats and prevents bacterial infections
• Promoting kidney health

Directions:

• For regular use: take one capsule daily.
• For intensive use: Take two capsules daily, in morning & night.
• For best results, all usage should be taken with an eight ounce glass of water.

BUY IT: You can buy the Lady Soma Cranberry Concentrate with Vitamin C for $12.74
