Eating for Beauty with Amazing Grass Organic Green SuperFoods

August 26, 2011 No Comments

‘Antioxidants’ is a hot beauty buzz word right now, and Amazing Grass has a new product that is right on target. Just one scoop of their new GREENSuperFood Antioxidant & Greens Powder has a whopping 15,000 ORAC units (compared to 900 per 3.5 ounce serving of broccoli or 210 per 3.5 ounce serving of carrots). Using a combination of five key antioxidant blends made from high quality fruits, vegetables and herbs, the new GREENSuperFood Antioxidant & Greens Powder helps the body defend against the effects of ‘evil’ free radicals and supports healthier skin and a strong immune system – key factors for optimizing beauty potential.
Free radicals are the by-products of a normal and necessary event – the burning of oxygen by cells in the body to produce energy. These by-products are damaged molecules that are missing an electron and want one badly enough to attack any nearby molecule to get it. If they take electrons from important components in the body, such as DNA (the body’s master plan for reproducing cells) or from protein or fat, they do damage to those cells and precipitate health problems including skin ailments. Free radicals can also be caused by environmental factors such as pollution, smoking and ultraviolet light.

Commercial LED Light Revolutionizing Energy Savings

August 26, 2011 No Comments

In Westchester’s very own Mt. Vernon, the story of Bridge Metal Industries, LLC exemplifies the growth of a clean energy economy, a priority that New York has identified as a potential solution to both economic and environmental concerns.
In 2007, The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) released a funding opportunity which aimed to support the growth of clean energy manufacturing in the state, including expansion of existing facilities to produce energy efficient end-use products. Bridge Metal, a financially secure but relatively traditional manufacturing company, took advantage of the opportunity to invest in a significant expansion and shift in operations, and now specializes in retail product display and illumination for retail stores using exceptionally efficient and durable light emitting diode (LED) technology.
