Pure Marine Collagen Grade AA

Collagen is simply an amazing food supplement
that helps the body's repair & renewal systems to work more effectively.

Collagen to Fight Ageing

Collagen is a powerful long-term anti-ageing protein. It improves the skin's elasticity and suppleness, reducing lines and wrinkles. Taken in its almost natural and original form, collagen produces a firmer, more even toned skin and helps to achieve a glowing radiant & more youthful complexion.
Without enough collagen only life maintaining repairs can take place. Less essential repairs are not done. As we become older even essential repairs have to be neglected. This is the disease we call ageing.

Your skin should feel smoother over the first few weeks, gradually becoming firmer. The lines & wrinkles in the eye area will begin to diminish and the lip border area start to fill out.

Without enough collagen your skin & body is old, whatever your age! No Anti-Ageing system can be effective without an adequate supply of body collagen.
Your body does not get collagen from food, it has to make it. By ingesting collagen (not digesting as food), your body lifts its own collagen production to that of a younger person.

Weight Loss & Reducing Body Fat

Collagen, taken orally, can help the body metabolise fat, it therefore has a roll to play in both weight management and the production of lean body mass in both sports and body-building.

Collagen is used in protein synthesis with the body's energy source, fat, to produce the necessary proteins that the body needs to repair muscles, ligaments, tendons etc.
Taking collagen orally, you can stimulate your body's own collagen production. Almost all the body's renewal and repair takes place during the first two hours of sleep. The overall effect of the increased fat metabolisation due to the increased renewal & repair activity is a decrease in body fat.

Anti-Inflammatory, Pain Relief, Joint Health

Collagen has been shown to reduce damage to joints and stimulate significant reductions in joint pain, tenderness and swelling.
A Harvard Medical School study on the effects of orally administered collagen for reducing inflammation and relieving pain (Dr C Searling, Fresco CA.) proved conclusively that almost 90% of those taking part had remarkable results - resulting in a changed life-style for many.
Collagen can reduce oxidative damage to joints and stimulate reductions in joint-pain, tenderness and swelling.
Collagen naturally stabilizes the body's immune system and helps neutralize the production of abnormal molecular structures known to be a major cause of joint misery and stiffness, especially in rheumatoid arthritis.
Collagen naturally consists of 15% glucosamine and 15% chondroitin sulphate - two substances renowned for their beneficial anti-inflammatory properties.
It functions as a chondro-protective agent and protects cartilage and synovial fluid against deterioration.
Collagen can bring real relief from pain by directly combating ageing tissue and arthritis by aiding normal repair of ligaments, tendons joints and bones while improving the connective tissue of the skin.

How Collagen Works

Previously collagen could not be produced in a form that could pass directly through the intestine wall and into the blood-stream intact and the only way was by injection. The problem with collagen injections is that they are only effective locally around the site of the injection, just plumping up the skin, and are very expensive.

Now that collagen has been produced in a form that can pass directly into the blood-stream intact, a whole new anti-ageing system has become available to everyone.

Once we pass our late 20's our body's have less collagen than they could use and a slow decline starts, but by ingesting Collagen such as Pure Marine Collagen  into the blood-stream, we are changing that situation.

Suprisingly, the presence of the collagen that you have ingested also stimulates the body's own collagen production.

What Happens

During the first few hours of sleep we go into what is called the Alpha Sleep phase of the brains sleep cycle. During this cycle the brain's pituitary gland (a vital part of the endocrine system) releases hormones into the blood-stream and we go into the rejuvenate, repair & replace mode (the collagen being the essential part of protein synthesis).

Having the correct hormones and Collagen available, the body can synthesize all the protein it needs, not only to do the "essential to staying alive" repair & renewal work, but also less essential repair & renewal like re-building the skin, strengthening ligaments, cartilage and bone, normalizing the immune system.

In other words, the body begins to try and do all of the things that took place when we were a young and growing person!

Collagen is simply an amazing food supplement that helps the body's repair & renewal systems to work more effectively.

Today, I have a special request for 'meehoon soto' from dear Mr Mama (hubby le tuh...)

Hmmm....never in my life I cook meehoon let alone 'meehoon soto', so I've googled up some 'meehoon soto' recipes and came across a blog with I think quite a simple recipe of 'meehoon soto'. Seems quite tidious and a handful lots of things and process to go through....so I think I'm gonna keep it simple though...hehehe [oh, it's so me to simplified things **with rolling eyes**]

I think I might skip the 'begedil' thing. Too high tech for me...hahaha...So I think I'm gonna replace the 'begedil' with some oversized meatballs that I can find at the groceries later on.

So guys, here is the recipe that I got from the blog.

Before, during & after Ramadhan - before & after Raya Aidilfitri...

Salam Lebaran semua,

It's beeennnnnn aggggesssss since I last visited my own blog and write something...gosh, lazy me. Just plain lazy (as though I have other reliable reason to create...)

Hmmm....it was a splendid Ramadhan....had a few 'majlis berbuka' here and there...yg jadi dan yg kensel...experienced it all.

Raya had joined in about a week ago...and I think I still breath ketupat & rendang in the air. Had a few good moment with family during the festive season, 'balik kampung' (it's THE MOST important thing to do during raya), went to my nenek's grave on raya (hmmm....that's the only day yg people make it important to go to cemetery...) lawat saudara mara dan bersalam2an...

It was really hot during raya in Malacca, but still it was fun & enjoyable!!! Well... what else can u expect when u reached everybody's home with raya dishes such as 'ketupat', 'rendang', 'nasi impit', 'kuah kacang', 'masak lodeh'....and so on....all are scrumptious & yummy....10/10....

 Today, with the kids going to school after so long a holidays of 9 days...I intend to do myself some goodness and clean the house inside out....it's been topsy curvy when the kids were at home 24/7!!!

Well, selamat hari raya Aidilfitri to all friends and readers. Semoga kita dipanjangkan usia dan dikurniakan Ramadhan sekali lagi....

Thanks for reading

I'm being lazy coz it's too hot!!

Hmmm....

Simply an understatement and an excuse you see...that I'm being lazy in updating my blog coz it's too hot!!! WTH...or am just being plain stupid with no idea to babble about....  ;(

Anyhow... the school holidays were terrific (or in my case terrifying...huhu) cos the house is full of children for a solid 2 weeks...14 days...336 hours...20160 minutes...1209600 seconds... Ha ha ha... as though 3 kids are a hand full!! Selfish me...he he he....

Yelorrr...the kids conquered almost everything!!!

- the main tv with a satellite subscription to you-know-what-company
- they conquered the lappy and desktops too
- not to mention mendling with ipad!!!

So, what's left for me??? Lots and lots and lots of house chores and laundry to be done...phuhh

Oh, did I ever mentioned that a close friend of mine is going on Umra' with his beloved hubby and her in-laws for a fortnite? Hmmm...I even managed to make her promised me to send me a copy of her journal during her Umra' so that I can write on it for my blog...how selfish of me...hehehe...sorry friend, you just have to bear with me on this  ;)

So, being a good friend she is and in keeping her "forced promise" that I made her to sworn, initially she emailed me yesterday 18 emails about her journey to meet her Maker...Gosh, you gotta be kidding me...18 EMAILS, really??? And now I have 18 emails to look into and write something on it...hmm...me and my big mouth!!
 Say, I wont be that fast in drafting and editing and publishing it in my blog, and I have to email her the draft first as she would need to approved it ...hmm...so, bear with me in my new post, ok?

Bye for now and thanks for reading...cheers  :)
