[What is Kava?]

Kava, also known as piper methysticum, kava kava, and ‘awa, is a small shrub native to the islands in the South Pacific. The root and stems are made into a non-alcoholic, psychoactive beverage that has been used socially and ceremonially for hundreds of years in Hawaii, Fiji, and Tonga.

Kava is traditionally prepared by placing ground root and stem into a porous sack, submerging in water, and squeezing the juice into a large, carved, wooden bowl. Coconut half-shell cups are dipped and filled — punch bowl style. After drinking a cup or two a feeling of heightened attention combined with relaxation begins to come on. Although it is soothing, it is unlike alcohol in that thoughts remain clear. The flavor is largely inoffensive, but some find that it takes getting used to; it really depends on your preference for earthy flavors.

[Kava is Safe to Use]

The safe and effective benefits of kava to relieve symptoms of anxiety were also supported in a meta-analysis, a systematic statistical review of seven human clinical trials published in 2000 in the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology, and again in a similar critical review in 2001. The reviews did not find significant adverse effects related to liver toxicity.

In conclusion, the liver is affected by many substances, including prescription and non- prescription drugs, as well as alcohol, which is a major cause of liver damage. We must be aware that herbs are potent medicines, to be treated with the appropriate respect regarding potential interactions and toxicity, including to the liver. On the other hand, Kava kava’s margin of safety far surpasses that of it’s pharmaceutical equivalent.

[Function]

Kava’s can help offset a number of problems, most notably stress, anxiety, and disrupted sleep patterns. However, kava’s anxiolytic (anti-panic or anti-anxiety agent) and calming properties can offset many other stress and anxiety related ailments.

Hiya, I’m finding out what does Xalo Ageless taste like? Formulated to slow down the aging process. My philosophy on aging is to actually embrace it. Look forward to it and don’t fear it. I believe your body senses the way you feel about yourself and your thoughts vibrate throughout your body.

On a cellular level however, I believe we can really give ourselves an advantage by feeding our cells the best nutrients so that they can regenerate and protect them against free radicals which cause ageing..
I love learning about the power of plants. My health philosophy is that I believe using natural products are better for us. Natural products work in tune with your body’s natural processes and this promotes health and wellbeing.

Ok so how do we age? I think the best way to understand aging is to think of photocopying your favourite photo. First time you copy, it’s pretty good. Now take a photocopy of the photocopy, not perfect, but not bad. If you keep photocopying the copies, you’ll eventually have a fuzzy and imperfect picture. This is what happens with cell reproduction. Free radicals can damage the cell walls – which are then copied – more damage can happen – our cells are again copied – this is how we age – for example our skin cells can be damaged by the sun, pollution, smoking or lack of good nutrients and therefore we lose our elasticity over the years, which results in saggy skin. Yay.

In the cell regeneration blend, Xalo Ageless uses the amazing mangosteen fruit or Garcinia Mangostana – Mangosteen just has so many healthy benefits for your body – it’s crazy. It supports the immune, intestinal and respiratory systems as well as having powerful antioxidants to combat free radicals that damage our cells.

Another outstanding herbomineral used is Shilajit. I had never heard of Shilajit before – although I do like saying the word Shilajit haha – In Sanscrit the word Shilajit means “conqueror of mountains and destroyer of weakness” It’s naturally found growing in the Himalayas and has been used in traditional medicine. It’s super high in fulvic acid which helps restoring the cell energy balance and recent studies suggest this can help in the control of brain cognitive disorders associated with aging – like Alzheimer’s disease.

The rejuvenation blend uses L-Leucine which is an essential amino acid. Our bodies cannot produce this so we get it by eating protein like meat, dairy products, eggs, whey protein, or by taking it as a supplement. Most people consume protein shakes because they know protein helps with the muscle building process. Researcher have found that its the presence of L-Leucine that is the key to switching on the body’s muscle building process. As we age our muscles tend to deteriorate so any extra help to maintain muscle mass is great.

The other blend is the Cardiovascular blend which has Grape Seed & Grape Skin Extract which promotes healthy skin and eyes plus Beet Juice powder which aids blood circulation.

So the best time to take Xalo Ageless is about 1-2 hours before you go to bed. Because this is the body’s refresh and repair time. You can mix with about 250mls of water, then shake and drink immediately.

I believe the benefits of using the natural supplement will pay off in the long run. I’d rather take care of me now than pay for medical treatments in the future. You can Google Xalo Ageless and see some awesome videos and research on the natural ingredients used and they might explain it better than me!

Thanks for watching my Xalo Ageless review, I hope it’s been helpful. I’ll leave a link in the description for more information about Xalo Ageless where you can read the FAQ, or feel free just to contact me with any questions. Xalo Ageless is hard to get a hold of in NZ without a distributor, but I can help you out. Thanks again, See ya!
