The Creamer of
Your Coffee Dreams
Step aside, coconut creamer. There’s a new
kid in town. Elmhurst Hemp Creamers, the
first hemp creamer on the domestic market,
are made from real hemp cream and have
350 mg of plant omega-3s per serving.
They’re crafted through a HydroRelease
method that uses just water to separate the
components, which are then reassembled.
The result is a rich emulsion that pairs well
with iced and hot coffee or tea. With six or
fewer ingredients, the creamers have zero
added gums, oils, or emulsifiers. Choose
from Original (unsweetened), French
Vanilla, Hazelnut, and Golden-Milk.
Freedom From
Inflammation
Inflammation is thought to be at the root of
most health problems, including joint and
muscle pain. To help tame it, we like Health
Thru Nutrition Freedom Softgels. This
formula boasts a proprietary blend of eight
ingredients clinically substantiated to combat
inflammation: curcumin, fish oil, gamma
linolenic acid (an anti-inflammatory omega-6
fat), vitamins D and E, hydroxytyrosol
(the main phenolic component of olive oil),
astaxanthin (a powerful antioxidant and
anti-inflammatory), and organic hemp seed oil.
You’ll Believe It
When You “C” It
Be on the lookout for two great new products
from Derma E: Vitamin C No Dark Circles
Perfecting Eye Cream and Vitamin C Gentle
Daily Cleansing Paste. Ever-so-slightly tinted,
the eye cream helps color correct dark circles
and laugh lines. Vitamin C helps tone skin,
while turmeric and mica visibly brighten
the eye area. Caffeine helps depuff for a
well-rested look. The cleansing paste gently
exfoliates for softer, clearer skin, thanks to a
trio of active ingredients: vitamin C, golden
turmeric, and non-abrasive ancient rice.

Sweet on Elderberry
A natural antiviral remedy, elderberry is one
of the best herbs to have on hand during the
cold and flu season. Pukka Herbs Organic
Elderberry Syrup is a delicious organic
blend that includes immune-bolstering
ginger, Manuka honey, and thyme. The
wild elderberries come from southern
Hungary, where there is a thriving industry
of wild herb collection. There are no added
sugars, dairy, gluten, or soy.

Energize With Charcoal
If you’ve been feeling exhausted from the
moment you wake up, you may have a
toxin build-up dragging you down. Yerba
Prima Activated Coconut Charcoal helps
cleanse your body of unwanted substances.
In addition to its detoxifying benefits,
this formula is designed to help alleviate
hangovers and gas and bloating. It may
also help rid the body of mold and lower
high cholesterol. There are no fillers or
additives—just 100 percent coconut shells.
