Pro Vital – It's As Easy As One, Two, Three

Pro Vital – It's As Easy As One, Two, Three

CNP Professional launches reformulated Pro Vital – an all-in-one performance boosting supplement.

(Vocus) February 24, 2009 -- For serious athletes there are a myriad of nutritional supplements that boost performance levels and aid recovery. Getting the right balance can be confusing, and remembering to take the right combination at the right time is an extra burden to an already busy training schedule. For non-professionals trying to fit everything in around work commitments it's hard to find the time to train let alone select and devise an effective supplement programme.

CNP Professional (http://www.cnpprofessional.co.uk/) is a sports nutrition company set up by athletes for athletes. Kerry Kayes, its founder, is a former champion body builder and currently a nutritional and training adviser to top sports people. Now CNP has launched a reformulated Pro Vital (http://www.cnpprofessional.co.uk/provital-advanced-multi-vitamin-and-mineral-supplement-with-p-159.html?osCsid=e6af096a547e9f722c318ec3b1b1c334), an advanced multi-vitamin and mineral supplement with anti-oxidants, which is comprised of three tablets taken at the same time.

"The idea is to make it as simple as possible for athletes at all levels to get the supplements they need," explains Kerry Kayes. “The government recommends five fruit and veg per day and apart from fibre this does give us all our vitamins and minerals. But a hard training athlete needs more like five to eight per day which is a lot of fruit and vegetables to munch through! Pro Vital supplies all the essential micro-nutrients for an athlete in a convenient format.”

Pro Vital’s three tablets contain a carefully devised combination of vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants that play a significant role in promoting optimum health and recovery during training and competition. Endurance athletes such as runners, cyclists and triathletes, as well as power athletes such as boxers and rugby players, will all benefit from adding Pro Vital into their dietary regime.

For convenience one of each of the three tablets are packaged into a single daily-dose sachet. The three can be taken together each morning with food – there is no need to stagger the dose. Previously the Pro Vital tablets had to be split into a morning and evening dose as some nutrients adversely affected the other's absorption rates. But the new formulation uses a time-release coating on the ZMA tablet so that all the three tablets can be taken in one go.

The contents of each sachet are split into three 'vital' components: anti-oxidants, the patented time-release ZMA (zinc monomethionine and magnesium aspartate) and a high strength vitamin and mineral combination.

Pro Vital can play a significant role in maintaining overall health and fitness. Zinc is critical for muscle growth and tissue repair after injury and magnesium is important for cardiovascular, metabolic and bone health. Together they enhance muscle mass and general well-being. The vitamins and minerals included in Pro Vital play a significant role in promoting optimum health and recovery while the anti-oxidant pro-cardio formula supports optimal liver function.

Pro Vital is available online at www.cnpprofessional.co.uk and the prices have been held at the old price of £27.39.

Go Fresh Introduces the Reusable Fresh Snack Pack

Go Fresh Introduces the Reusable Fresh Snack Pack

Trade in a box of disposable lunch baggies for just one of these reusable sandwich and snack bags. This environmentally friendly option is the newest thing to hit the lunchbox.

San Francisco (PRWEB) February 24, 2009 -- Trade in a box of disposable lunch baggies for just one of these reusable sandwich and snack bags. This environmentally friendly option is the newest thing to hit the lunchbox.

The lunchbox is the same but the contents are fresh and new. Replacing the junk food and single use disposables are reusable sandwich and snack bags that can be filled with nutritious food.

"As parents we are the gateway to good habits and healthy eating," says Fresh Snack Pack inventor and mother of three, Crystal Figlietti. "The message that we send our children by using reusable bags is that we care about the environment. Packing fresh food says that we care about them." (www.freshsnackpack.com Snack size $4.50 and Sandwich size $5.50)

The Fresh Snack Pack is easily cleaned by hand washing. The top flap on the sandwich and the snack sizes open out to present a built-in placemat. The top flap can also wrap around a stroller, shopping cart or tricycle handlebar. The bags have an easy-to-open Velcro closure, unlike some plastic containers which are hard to open. The packaging is minimal and completely recyclable.

The original concept and design was created in 2004 and received an award from The National Parenting Center in that same year. Improvements were made and the sandwich size was added. The new product is PVC free plastic, non-toxic, durable and free of any ink printing. The bags have an original design embossed on them featuring planet earth.

As a former fabric designer it may have seemed natural for Figlietti to have chosen fabric as a material of choice for these reusable bags but she says, "I have seen the fabric industry from the inside, having been to print plants in the USA and overseas, and I realized that the inks, dyes and finishes used on fabric are not tested for food safety. That was a concern for me. The Fresh Snack Pack that you see today was very consciously created."

With about 180 school days in a year and multiple disposable bags in each lunchbox everyday, this reusable alternative saves hundreds of bags per child every year from going to the landfill. "We passed the 100th day of school recently and we've been using and reusing the same sandwich bag all year," says Figlietti. "They are that durable."
