Tribest Glastor Airtight Glass Storage Containers Review

Tribest Life is here to provide you with quality products that will energize your life! They believe that everyone should have the right and be empowered to make healthy living decisions. All of the products they carry help to make healthy living easy. They have carefully chosen all of the products that they carry to make sure that you have the latest innovations and best products to help maintain a healthy lifestyle.





I received the Glastor 4pc. Square Gift Set ($39.95), which allows me to store food and ingredients with ease and worry-free since the lids are free of BPA. I'm slowly, but surely getting away from using plastic storage containers since most contain a chemical compound called Bisphenol A, which is more commonly known as BPA. Exposure to this chemical can cause neurological problems, diabetes, cancer, and a plethora of other issues that makes the use of the products that contain it a DON'T.

Glastor Airtight Glass Storage Containers feature an airtight silicone seal and snap-to-lock lids that prevent air from entering the container during storage. This allows your food to stay fresher longer, putting a halt to drips from spilling, and odors from escaping. Therefore, storing food has never been easier. You can easily store soup, salads, fruits, aromatic ingredients, and poultry. When not in use, you can easily nest one container into another to save cupboard space.

Somnio Running Shoes Review

If you're a runner, customized running shoes might be ideal for you if you experience any kind of discomfort in your knees or feet. Poorly fitting running shoes or inadequate foot cushioning are often the culprit behind the discomfort. Customized running shoes from companies such as Somnio can also help alleviate symptoms due to anatomical abnormalities; such as unequal foot, spinal curvature, or limb size. However, it is always recommended to find out the underlying problem before shopping for customized running shoes.



I received a pair of Self Control running shoes ($160) from Somnio. This particular style is stable and cushioned. It is designed for a runner with low to medium arches and moderate to severe pronation. Exuding class and style, these are without question the most comfortable running shoes I have ever I owned. They are weightless, which makes them great for long runs!

I had them customized for my feet by using their Build My Shoe tab featured on their site. A video will come up that you can play and learn how to fit yourself. If you’re on trails a lot, they suggest trying the Westridge ($130) but if you’re more prone to running on the roads, they suggest the Pacemaker ($135). While the online tool is easy to use, it is recommended that you go to a retail dealer in your area to be even more properly fitted. I was unable do this since I don't have one in my area.

Functionally Engineered Adaptable Tricomponent System


- Interchangeable footbeds for a custom fit based on the runner’s arch height, providing more support and comfort.

- IndX cushioning inserts for long-lasting cushioning and customization based on weight and preferred running surface.

- Tunable Varus angulation for addressing each runner’s particular biomechanical needs – like having a custom orthotic made specifically for your shoe.

- Micro 2 Step dual density midsole for pronation control.

- ACT midfoot bridge provides extra support and gait alignment during the transition from heel to forefoot.

- Road Block tread rubber compound for durability.

- Stretch Mesh forefoot material allows the shoe to move with the foot and accommodates a wide variety of foot types.

- Lace Keeper keeps laces in place and tied.

Get a $150 Amazon.com Gift Card with the Purchase of an ASUS Bamboo Laptop


ASUS U43JC-X1 14-Inch Bamboo Laptop (10 Hours of Battery Life) $999 and Free Shipping


Drawing on the symbolism of bamboo as a durable renewable resource, the sophisticated U43Jc bamboo notebook with a 14-inch HD LED-backlit display combines distinguished aesthetics with premium technology. The stylish U43Jc-X1 bamboo shell reduces the use of plastic material by up to 15%, and enhances a brushed-aluminum interior. Sleek and user-friendly, this mobile phenom blends powerful yet energy-efficient technology to deliver an astounding 10 hours of battery life between charges.

Its power-saving ability is due to the system-optimizing ASUS Super Hybrid Engine, and to NVIDIA Optimus Technology that switches between powerful discrete graphics and efficient embedded graphics, providing sufficient power for the task at hand. The U43Jc-X1 complements its power with convenience by incorporating SuperSpeed USB 3.0, for up to 10 times faster transfer speeds compared to USB 2.0.

The U43Jc-X1 features the Intel Core i5 processor, 14-inch Slim-Type LED-backlit HD display, high-speed Wireless N connectivity, 4GB DDR3 system memory, 500GB hard drive, 2.0MP webcam with lens cover for added security, multi-touch trackpad, and Windows 7 Home Premium.

Bamboo Series notebooks juxtapose their natural bamboo exteriors with sleek, brushed aluminum for a striking combination of elemental beauty. The bamboo material was chosen after research identified it as a quickly-replenishing resource whose utilization has almost no impact on the environment as a whole. Mature Moso bamboo is harvested at roughly two years of age to align with its natural lifespan, and the manufacturing process uses less energy than traditional metal alloys that are refined from petrol.

The streamlined bamboo design reduces the use of plastic material by up to 15%. Even the notebooks’ product packaging is made of 100% natural, recyclable bamboo pulp and non-woven packing cloth. The U43Jc-X1 provides a more personal experience for users, as the bamboo material used in the palm rest and the touch pad has a natural touch and feel. ASUS also provides a free take-back service that helps you recycle their products.

And the U43Jc-X1 has user-enhancing comfort to ease you through day-to-day tasks. Scroll, click, and type with ease on a chiclet keyboard with concave keys that increase precision and decrease fatigue. With a multi-touch trackpad, the U43Jc-X1 is easy to navigate, so you can scroll and zoom effortlessly.

Back to School with Bach Kids



As most of us prepare our children for back to school, fun outings and summer nights are coming to an abrupt. This transition can be cumbersome for some children. Bach® Kids All-Natural Remedies can bring the the balance that your child needs to ease this transition. Whether they’re dealing with the anxiety of the new school year (RESCUE Remedy®), having difficulty focusing on the task at hand (Daydream Remedy), or lacking confidence to try new things (Confidence Remedy), Bach Kids can help.



 

NutraSea Kids Review



Most parents are either preparing their children for back-to-school or their children have already started school. In either case, NutraSea Kids by Ascenta is a must have since it eases the transition back to school. It is beneficial for concentration and behavior, improved mood and ADHD in children.

NutraSea Kids includes vitamin D and is rich in important EPA and DHA omega-3 essential fatty acids along with GLA omega-6 fatty acid which, when combined with EPA, can play a crucial role in early childhood development.



My son has ADHD and this one of the reasons why I'm home-schooling him this year. Right now, I don't believe in giving him medication for it since I was on medication for ADHD myself as a child, and I believe that it did more harm than good for me. In the past, I haven't had much luck at finding a natural alternative that actually works for my son, but I believe that this has been helping him somewhat. My son usually isn't keen on taking liquid supplements, but he seems to like this one since it has a very berry flavor. It can be taken alone or mixed in yogurt or smoothie. I know that it usually takes awhile for products like these to "kick" in their system. Therefore, I'll keep you updated as the weeks go by in case I see more improvement.

Parents should rest assured they are giving their children the most pure, contaminant-free product available: all of Ascenta’s products are third-party tested for quality, purity and label claims. The test results for each bottle are posted online with the Pure Check program and can be accessed using the lot number on the bottle, providing unique transparency that no other omega-3 supplement manufacturer offers and putting mothers’ minds at ease.

NutraSea Kids is available in high-quality health food stores across the country (store locator) including Vitamin Shoppes and Whole Foods and online at VitaminShoppe.com.

HPV Test Blog Tour



Starting at the age of 21, most women are encouraged to get an annual Pap smear for early detection and/or treatment for cervical cancer among other illnesses. Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women worldwide. This year in the U.S., 11,270 women will be diagnosed with cervical cancer and 4,070 will die from the disease.

As women, we must be our own health advocates by proactively asking our doctor about receiving the digene HPV test along with a Pap smear. The HPV vaccine is a new and powerful tool that is effective since it protects women from getting cervical cancer. You can learn more about it by going to http://www.thehpvtest.com. This web-site thoroughly covers information regarding HPV, the test, and cervical cancer prevention. It has enough educational materials that will help you reduce your risk of cervical cancer. It also includes information about insurance coverage.

You can join the Pearl of Wisdom™ Campaign to raise awareness of the new tools that are now available to prevent cervical cancer, advocate for making them available to girls and women everywhere, and encourage women to take full advantage of the protection they provide.

Optimum Pants from Elizabeth's Store Review



The Elizabeth's Store was founded in 2008, but actually got its start more than 12 years ago. It all began in New York City, when two aspiring actresses Eli, and Beth (Eli's business partner and best friend), met on the set of “Cosby”. No, not that Cosby Show...Bill did a second, let’s just say, slightly less popular show which was filmed in NYC.

Being actresses in NYC, you run around a lot (auditions, the gym, interviews for jobs that will actually pay the rent, dates, etc.), and let’s face it, they love New York, but it can be a bit dirty. Plus, who has time to change between appointments. So, you find you are always on the look-out for the perfect pair of black pants, you know something that goes with everything, are easy to care for, and won’t break the budget, but which ensures you are “camera ready” at all times.



Fast forward to today, Beth is still a jet setter and an entrepreneur whom you are equally likely to run into at a Hollywood party, a Georgetown Business Association meeting, or engaging in her favorite pastime shopping in the cutest boutiques. Eli is married with three kids and you will most likely see her in the grocery store, at the playground, or on a date night with her husband. But despite their different lifestyles, they are still best friends. And now they’re also business partners because they have finally found the perfect pant.

So follow them as they introduce them to the world. They can promise you that, if nothing else, it won't be boring and you WILL have a pair of the most amazing pants at an affordable price.



The Optimum Pants ($34.95) from Elizabeth's Store are simplistic in design, but are chic and comfortable enough to wear to the gym, a date, out and about or to lounge around at home. The pants are available in basic black, which enables you to wear just about anything with it. Plus, the black also makes you look leaner and taller if stand at an average height. I'm 5'3" and a half and these pants call for shoes that have a heel so the bottom of the pants will not go through wear and tear. I don't mind this at all since I love wearing heels, especially with pants! The pants run a bit small. Therefore, I suggest going up another size to ensure comfort and a great fit. They feature an eye-catching, attractive, and couture-like logo on the front, but it will not downplay or overplay your outfit.

The Optimum Pants were made to follow the contours of your body, while highlighting your best features. Designed to look 5 pounds lighter, you can be assured that you will be looking your best with these pants! It raises your rear, slims your waistline, and smoothes your figure.

Elizabeth's Store doesn't just offer pants to help you look your best, but they also offer tops for women....and men to look their best as well! The Men's Fitted Tee Shirt ($24.99) and Ladie's Cap Sleeve Tee Shirt ($24.99) are great for the hot and humid weather that we're experiencing now! The Light Weight Long Sleeve Thermal ($34.99) would be great for cooler weather that is around the corner.

ViCera Cutlery Review and Giveaway



Prize: One winner will receive a Chef's Knife ($79.98) from ViCera.

Sign the Google Spreadsheet above.

Entry Limit: Daily

Note: You can list bonus entries separately or all in one entry - your choice!



In Japanese, the kanji character for beauty is and can be read as "vi". The word for ceramics can be shortened to "cera", and writen as . Combined, the name ViCera™ (pronounced "vee-say-rah') means beautiful ceramics. At ViCera™ , they take great pride in their products as highly functional works of art. From beginning to end, their master craftsmen give careful attention to each and every blade to consistently produce unparalleled sharpness that lasts far longer than steel. The naturally brilliant, white blades are made using only pure Japanese zirconia ceramic and embody the traditional Japanese aesthetic of purity.



The primary difference between ViCera™ and other ceramic knife manufacturers is the size of the zirconium oxide particles in the finished blade. Using advanced technology, the zirconium oxide particles in ViCera™ blades are reduced to one fifth of their original size. They are then pressed using 500 tons of pressure (compared to the 200 tons used by other ceramic producers). The end result is a stronger, denser blade with substantially longer edge retention.

Because ViCera™ knives are forged to such exacting standards, there is no need to polish the entire blade before final presentation, which other manufacturers must do. When applied to the entire blade, polishing can create tiny, almost invisible cracks, compromising quality and making the knife more susceptible to breakage. ViCera™ blades are only polished on the cutting edge revealing a brilliant, dense, white blade that naturally resists staining.



I received the Chef's Knife ($79.98), which does a fantastic job at cutting fruit and vegetables just like a stainless steel knife would, but much better! I was a bit afraid of chipping the knife by it being ceramic, but I haven't had any problems so far. While it takes a bit more time with a stainless steel knife, this knife gets the job done within no time. By it being lighweight, there is no need to put weight to it like I would with any other knife. It cuts the fruit and vegetables evenly, which makes the food turn out better when cooking. I never thought anything would beat a stainless knife, but this company certainly knew what they were doing when they thought of ViCera!

Other products from the ViCera line include the Santoku Knife ($69.98), Paring Knife ($39.98), and the Utility Knife ($59.98).
