    Nirvana Water – Delicious Spring Water from Rare Phenomena in The Foothills of The Adirondack Wilderness

    Known for its delicious taste and now infused with transformative science, Nirvana brings clinically proven, life-enhancing benefits to everybody. Deep underground in the foothills of the Adirondacks are two ice age aquifers gushing with pure and delicious spring water. It flows underground like a river until it hits limestone bedrock, launching it toward the earth and forming natural springs. A natural force and the only source of Nirvana. Nirvana is immersed in the science of HMB and its benefits for Muscle Wellness. With the only patented water-soluble HMB, everybody will be staying strong drinking the best tasting water on Earth.

    Their still water comes fresh from the foothills of the Adirondack mountains making it the best tasting water on earth. They also make HMB-infused water to boost muscle performance, reduce muscle recovery time, and slow muscle degradation. Nirvana has two new productions coming soon such as sparkling water straight from the Adirondacks and spring water geared to aging wellness which is infused with HBM and vitamin D to increase vitamin D levels, boost muscle performance, reduce muscle recovery time, and slow muscle degradation.

    HMB (B-hydroxy B-methylbutyrate) is a natural substance in your body that supports muscle wellness. However, our natural HMB depletes during exercise and as we age. With the exclusive license in North America for water-soluble HMB, Nirvana’s new product line addresses muscle wellness head on and is clinically proven to:

    • Enhance Athletic Performance: Helps achieve optimal muscle health.
    • Boost Muscle Performance: Increases muscle capacity, and strength and gain from exercise.
    • Reduce Muscle Recovery Time: Improves recovery after exercise or injury.
    • Slow Muscle Degradation: Reduces muscle loss from aging. Improves mobility and comfort.
    • Improve COVID Recovery: Added to a rehabilitation regimen after Covid-19 can result in the arrest of muscle wasting.

    Nirvana’s HMB infused bottled spring water health claims are backed by extensive academic and medical research that earned the product a GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) designation in compliance with applicable FDA regulations. The extensive patent portfolio underlying Nirvana’s exclusive license bars all competition.

    At the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains are 1,700 acres of protected wilderness. Beyond the meadows and wildflowers, through thousands of pines, are five natural springs gushing with the best tasting water on Earth. Nirvana spring water. Nirvana is bottled exclusively from these springs, fed by two extraordinary ice age aquifers expanding for miles deep underground.

    Nirvana flows deep beneath the earth through two ice age aquifers. For millions of years, this natural force has fed the Black River. When the River has its fill, the water still flowing underneath, collides with limestone bedrock, launching it toward the earth and forming natural springs. This is where Nirvana is bottled. At its source, untouched by human hands.

    Every drop is bottled fresh from the springs, and at its natural 42° temperature. Nirvana is naturally high in calcium and low in sodium. It’s bromate-free with a remarkably low 40 TDS (Total Dissolved Solids). Delicious and healthy spring water.

    About Nirvana Water Sciences Corp.

    Nirvana Water Sciences Corp. has developed a line of proprietary infused bottled spring water products with clinically proven natural health and wellness benefits that will capitalize on the increasing demand for purpose-driven beverages.

    Southern Caramel – A tradition in creating the best caramel you have ever tasted

    Life is too short for bad caramels. When it comes to sweets, we need to eat something good, good for your kids, as well as for yourself. I am picky to any candies, chocolates and desserts. But if it’s good, I will enjoy it without hesitates. Health is important, while being happy somehow is more important.

    At Southern Caramel they make one thing and they make it well. Southern Caramel believes that the art of making handmade caramel is more than the mastery of blending ingredients together. In its simplest form, caramel is only three ingredients. But not all caramel is created equal.
    Southern Caramel has honed their recipe over time through a process that was admittedly a little tricky to perfect. Years were spent in the kitchen making recipe tweaks and adjustments until they arrived at what they felt was the BEST caramel on the market. Southern Caramel knows what caramel should look like, what caramel should smell like, and they know that caramel cooks a little differently in August than it does in January. Southern caramel is made without the aid of preservatives and still maintains a shelf life of four months unrefrigerated (up to a year when refrigerated).
    Southern caramels are made from scratch and by hand using pure ingredients, just like grandma used to make and with a whole lotta love. Each box is then packaged for each individual order. The fact that Southern caramels are made in small batches allows them to maintain a level of quality throughout their production process that results in exceptional taste and product consistency.
    Nothing compares to the taste of true caramel. So what makes Southern Caramel different from the other caramel manufacturers? The main thing that sets them apart from the rest of the pack is the flavor and the manner in which the caramel dissolves in your mouth without sticking to your teeth. Southern Caramel starts the process with pure cane sugar and then they caramelize it. This may seem like an obvious step, but many caramel manufacturers do not take the time to truly caramelize their sugar. The unfortunate result is a sugary, sweet, brown filling that lacks the depth of flavor that characterizes true caramel. Southern caramels do not contain any artificial flavors, artificial colors or preservatives and are naturally gluten-free. Southern Caramel feels pretty strongly about this, but they think your caramel should taste like… well, caramel.

    Lime Salted Caramel

    Perfect for summertime, Southern Caramel original recipe caramel is sprinkled with house made lime salt. Just a hint of lime, this one reminds us of key lime pie with a caramel drizzle.

    Bourbon Caramel

    As with all the flavors, a recipe is only as good as the ingredients used to make it. That is why Southern Caramel uses top-shelf bourbon the Bourbon Caramels. There is nothing subtle about these Bourbon Caramel so if you enjoy a nice glass of bourbon, this caramel is perfect for you.

    Sampler Box

    Can’t decide on which taste-tempting caramel delight to choose? This Sampler Box contains four quarter-pound boxes of your favorite flavors! Excellent choice for weddings, showers, corporate gifts, closing gifts… always makes a wonderful heartfelt Thank You gift for friends, family and coworkers. Note: Only one premium flavor per Sampler Box, please.

    Meet the Cooling Cuff – The perfect solution to excessive body heat

    Humans are warm blooded. When you are hot, your blood gets warmer and heats up your skin. You sweat to cool down the skin and keep body temperature normal. The Cooling Cuff removes heat from the skin much faster than sweating. The wrist is the optimal place to cool the body due to specialized skin that releases a disproportionate amount of heat.

    The Cooling Cuff is a silicone band with a medical-grade cooling pack that rapidly lowers your body’s temperature. You will save energy during exercise, quickly cool down, and stop sweating. It even provides instant relief for heat induced discomfort or excessive sweating.

    Introducing the Cooling Cuff.

    Cooling Cuffs quickly cool you down so you are more comfortable and stop sweating.

    The Cooling Cuff is the solution to heat intolerance and to feel more comfortable in the heat.

    Cooling Cuffs are effective in:

    • Helping heat intolerance, which is discomfort due to heat.
    • Rapidly cooling you down after a workout so that you quickly stop sweating.
    • Maintain lower body temperatures during exercise.
    • Helping you manage hot flashes and discomforts due to high body temperature.

     

    How the Cooling Cuff cools you down.

    The Cooling Cuff works because it removes heat from your blood through the skin on your wrist. Humans are warm blooded. When you are hot, blood gets warmer and heats up your skin. We sweat to cool down the skin and keep body temperature normal. Cooling Cuffs accelerate the process by cooling the skin much faster than sweat. The wrist is the optimal place to cool the body because of specialized skin that releases a disproportionate amount of heat.

    Cooling Cuff Pack – Each Cooling Cuff pack contains:

    • Two bands, one for each wrist
    • Four cooling packs to replace as needed

    Ultimate Cinnamon Maple Pancake Breakfast to Impress the Family

    A new week starts, are you planning your weekdays’ breakfasts? Fry up a sausage patty and then pour over our Oat Milk Pancake batter to create these sweet and salty mind-blowers. Spoil yourself and your family during busy working days, Bushwick Kitchen‘s Oat Milk Pancake & Waffle Mix helps you to save time and make it fast and easy.

    Do you look for the silver linings in the state of things? That means mid-week waffle breakfasts. Other than pancakes, let’s change to waffle today.

     

    Original Recipe Oat Milk Pancake & Waffle Mix

    Who said classics couldn’t use an upgrade? Bushwick Kitchen has taken a pancake OG, Buttermilk, and flipped the hotcake world by creating a plant-based doppelgänger with their custom blend of whole grains and oat milk from TN to serve up the tastiest flap-jacks your taste buds can handle. We promise, even originals can elevate from classic to daring.

    Cinnamon Oat Milk Pancake & Waffle Mix

    Take comfort food by the mouthful. The warm spice of cinnamon is serving up the coziest vibes, and flavors, no matter the season. Grab your forks and your appetite, Bushwick Kitchen is flipping the script on standard pancakes. Their custom blend of whole grains and oat milk from TN has a dash of cinnamon and a sprinkling of rolled oats for a hot stack of goodness.

    Ultimate Cinnamon Maple Pancakes

    1 large egg, separated
    1 cup all-purpose our
    3 teaspoons baking powder
    1⁄4 teaspoon kosher salt
    3⁄4 cup whole milk
    1⁄4 cup Trees Knees Cinnamon Maple
    2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
    Vegetable oil for skillet

    Add egg white to a medium bowl and beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form, about 6-8 minutes.

    In a large bowl whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolk, milk, maple syrup, and butter. Stir in flour mixture until combined. Gently fold in egg whites with a spatula until incorporated.

    Place a skillet over medium-high heat and brush with vegetable oil. Use a measuring cup to ladle 1⁄4 cup of batter at a time. Cook until golden brown on one side, about 4 minutes, then flip and cook until other side is golden, about 2 minutes.

    A Tip on the Flip:

    Don’t be tempted to turn on the first sign of bubbles. Wait until the popped bubbles start leaving little air pockets. Then it’s time to turn. Pancakes can be kept warm in a 200°F oven while you finish or, preferably, stacked onto plates straight out of the pan.
