Koko FitClub Not Your Typical Gym An open letter to our community written by Koko FitClub Lakewood Ranch owners, Dr. Josette Grice and Doug Grice.

Fitness is a very personal choice. We all want to be fit and healthy, but how we choose to do it, or not, becomes very individual for every person We started Koko Fitclub here in Lakewood Ranch because we believe there was something missing for people (us included) for whom big mainstream gyms simply don’t work.

As a physician, I believe being healthy is one of the most important responsibilities I have to myself, my family and my patients. Plus, I like how I feel when I am in better shape. So, giving up wasn’t an option. I also knew a lot of my patients were struggling just like me, so I decided to do something about it. I became determined to find a gym that would provide everything a typical person in the real world needed to get on – and stay on – a healthy path. (Dr. Josette Grice) Traditional gyms have never provided me with the support and guidance that I needed to get the results I hoped for. Dating back to being a college athlete I have always had the motivation, but I have never had a program that kept me engaged for very long, either mentally or physically. And as my life has gotten busier, my gym became less and less a part of my life- other than when it was time to pay the monthly bill. (Doug Grice) That’s why we decided to bring Koko FitClub to Lakewood Ranch.

At Koko FitClub, we exist for one reason and one reason only: to change lives in our community.

We specialize in helping people who just don’t fit into the typical gym scene get results.

Our job is to guide you, motivate you and support your personal fitness journey. Koko is a one-of-a-kind, proven approach to fitness, based

Nutri Lifescience Launches Nutri Maqui

A Delicious, Super Antioxidant Superfruits Blend!

Fresh on the heels of its successful debut product launch, Bergamonte, Nutri Lifescience has launched Nutri Maqui, a delicious super antioxidant superfruits blend, featuring the benefits of maqui berry blended with several other key high-antioxidant fruits. The supplement, available in an eye-catching 32-oz. bottle, is formulated to support healthy immune response, healthy cholesterol management and healthy blood sugar management.

“American health-conscious consumers really love to drink their nutraceuticals,” says Jessica Eng, Nutri Lifescience founder and president. “When formulating this product, we wanted to provide consumers with solutions to their most common health goals - to address healthy immunity, and to support healthy management of blood sugar and cholesterol in tandem with a nutritious diet and healthy lifestyle. Consumers also are very aware that antioxidants help maintain vitality, well-being and health, and they are known to favor any product that enhances their overall daily antioxidant intake. Thus, we formulated Nutri Maqui to help fulfill those goals.”

The ingredients in this tasty blend are: Maqui berry: Maqui berry is the key botanical ingredient in Nutri Maqui for cellular rejuvenation, healthy immune response and healthy aging. Maqui berry is an excellent source of vitamins A and C, and minerals calcium, iron and potassium. Maqui contains very high levels of bioflavanoid antioxidants such as anthocyanins and polyphenols - the anthocyanins and polyphenols in maqui is among the highest of all fruits and vegetables. Anthocyanins can protect cells from free radical damage and can act as an anti-inflammatory which benefits heart health.

Acai: his antioxidant-rich berry is extremely high in anthocyanins, which research has shown to have a healthy protective affect on cardiovascular health. Acai berries are excellent amounts of iron, calcium, fiber and vitamin A. Elderberry: For centuries Europeans have relied on the immune-strengthening properties of elderberry, and research has found that elderberries have more potent antiviral effect than echinacea. Elderberry is an excellent

source of vitamins A, B and C, as well as bioflavonoids and anthocyanins, which positively influence cell function.

Research has shown that anthocyanins in black elderberry boost the production of cytokines, the proteins that act as messengers within the immune system, promoting healthy immune response.

Blackberry: Blackberry is known to contain anthocyanins and polyphenol antioxidants, which have been shown to up-regulate certain beneficial metabolic processes in mammals. Blackberries are high in Vitamins C, gallic and ellagic acids and rutin, which give this berry known anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties. Blackberries have one of the highest antioxidant levels of fruits regularly tested. Research has also shown that blackberries exhibit anti-inflammatory properties.

Raspberry: Raspberries are jam-packed with polyphenols and anthocyanins, and are a rich source of vitamin C, dietary fiber, B vitamins, folic acid, magnesium, copper and iron. Raspberries rank near the top of all fruits for antioxidant strength, particularly due to their dense contents of ellagic acid, quercetin, gallic acid, anthocyanins, cyanidins, pelargonidins, catechins, kaempferol and salicylic acid. All these are polyphenolic antioxidants are contributing to the antioxidant capacity.

Pomegranate: Pomegranate contains a variety of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals that help to support healthy immunity and cardiovascular function. It also contains high amounts of vitamin K that helps to support bone health and vitamin B5 that helps the body metabolize protein, carbohydrates and fats. Pomegranate also contains a significant amount of calcium, vitamin C, niacin, thiamin and riboflavin. A compound found only in pomegranates - punicalagin - is shown to benefit the heart and blood vessels.

Each bottle of Nutri Maqui provides 32 one-ounce servings; consumers may take one to two doses daily.

We invite health and wellness centers, healthcare practitioners and retailers to participate in this business opportunity.
