Our products often get recommended for the reduction or removal of cellulite by some very prominent publications.  With the possible link between caffeine and cellulite reduction, we can understand why.  Our products are formulated with coffee, coffee extracts, coffee oils, antioxidants, and natural ingredients that are all meant to nourish the skin and hair.  While we love to see our products shown in Cosmopolitan, Bon Appetit and many others, what we really care about is what you think.  Our latest poll is asking for your secret to reducing or removing cellulite so we want to hear what you’ve found.  If our one lump or two body scrubs do the trick for you, we’d love to hear about it in the poll and/or in the comments.  If you have another secret or other ideas, let’s hear those too!

Our poll can be found on the left side of our blog home page so let us know what you think.

Did I Forget to Tell You…

According to MedicineNet.com and an article soon to be published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease,“…drinking three cups of coffee per day may help turn the tide against Alzheimer’s disease among older adults who are already showing signs of memory problems, a new study shows.”

People older than 65 who had higher blood levels of caffeine developed Alzheimer’s disease two to four years later than their counterparts with lower caffeine levels.

There may even be a reason to start for people in their late 30s and up, says Chuanhai Cao, PhD., a neuroscientist at the University of South Florida’s College of Pharmacy and Byrd Alzheimer’s Institute in Tampa.  “Aim for an average of three, 8-ounce cups of coffee per day in the morning after eating breakfast.”

Sam Gandy, MD, PhD, reviewed the new findings for WebMD. He is the Mount Sinai chair in Alzheimer’s disease research at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City. “There are basic science studies from our lab and from other labs showing that a substance called cyclic AMP can reduce formation of amyloid, and it is well known that caffeine elevates cyclic AMP levels.”

Dr. Gandy states,”…attention is a key component of memory, and it is well established that caffeine increases attention. Thus, it is conceivable that caffeine improves memory by virtue of its effects on memory.”
