A Plant-Based Egg Substitute with The Same Great Eggy Taste

They say you can’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs. Whoever came up with the saying never heard of the Vegg, everything you’d want from an egg without all the bad stuff. In fact, the Vegg is 100% plant-based ingredients with the same delicious eggy taste.

“We saw a dramatic spike in sales when the pandemic hit because people wanted something that would last and was healthy, too,” said Harold A. Bollaci, C.E.O. of the Vegg New York, purveyors and distributors of the world’s healthiest 100% plant-based egg substitute. “When stay at home orders were lifted, sales didn’t slow. People realize how great the Vegg is and they are continuing to buy it.”

The Vegg offers four products that are all 100% plant-based egg substitutes.

-Vegg Yolk Mix is the company’s signature product. Add water and it replicates the taste and texture of an egg yolk.
-The Vegg Scramble Mix, packed with protein, is meant to replace a regular egg and is a stand-alone product.
-The Vegg Baking Mix, which sold out during the early part of the shutdown, is used as a binding agent in baking.
– The Vegg French Toast Mix, makes the fluffiest French Toast with fat-free and cholesterol-free plant-based egg substitute that is high in Vitamin A and B12.

There’s even a Vegg cookbook packed with 80 pages of great-tasting vegan recipes.

Although the Vegg was originally created for the vegan market, it appeals to a broad range of customers, is great for health-conscious consumers as well as those with egg allergies. It is distributed worldwide.

Japanese Myoshi Kitchen Knives Crafted to Inspire

Myoshi Knives was created by Eyal Azerad, a world renown sword-maker and founder of Darksword Armory Inc. For the past 23 years, Eyal Azerad has been manufacturing high-end European swords and armors for private collectors and important movie and gaming productions. Most notably, Eyal Azerad has worked closely with Ubisoft during the making of Assassin’s Creed II and the weapons for the Lord of the Rings theater adaptation, both of which have been brought to fruition in Darksword Armory’s forge in Montreal, Canada.
By travelling to museums and private collections in Europe and Japan, Eyal was able to carefully examine blades from all over the world from a standpoint of design, functionality and metallurgical composition. This affords him with a unique perspective on what makes a blade effective and elegant in both form and function.

Myoshi decided to create two distinct premium knife sets, one fitted with VG10 Titanium coated Premium Japanese steel (The Hisashi Collection) and the other set with AUS10, 67 layer folded Japanese steel (The Shogun Collection). While natural elegance is at the core of our project, we made sure to produce both knife sets with unrivaled quality and edge sharpness and retention. We honored the traditional Japanese 16 degree sharpened edge, making the blades extremely sharp for the most delicate cuts. Myoshi is live on Indiegogo. Early birds can pre-order one starting at $72.

Burning Desire, by M.L. Stark

Author M. L. Stark, through a fictionalized account of her personal life, tells her story of abuse while dating a psychopathic man in “Burning Desire: The Psychopath and the Girl in Black Prada Shoes Part I.” This book is the first in an adult fiction series that raises awareness of the intense, destructive nature of a relationship with a psychopathic man.
“Burning Desire” follows the main charter, Mary, and her toxic relationship with a man named Drake. Mary, who was in an unfulfilling marriage with an unfaithful man, fell prey to the allure of Drake, who was her doctor. Utilizing his role as Mary’s doctor to his own perverse advantage, Drake made his way into Mary’s psyche and wielded power and fear to attract her. This novel showcases how Drake, a psychopathic man, manipulates Mary for money and to maintain a sense of power over a vulnerable human being.
Stark wishes to share tell-tale signs of a toxic relationship so that women can learn to identify psychopathic and manipulative behavior and take the necessary precautions during courtship to protect themselves. This book can also help male readers, who are in relationships with women who have dated a psychopathic man, understand their partner and treat them with the love, respect and patience that they need. With “Burning Desire,” Stark hopes to reach both women and men who are navigating romantic relationships and encourage them to find healthy, supportive relationships with one another.

Condom sales slump – how to get over your lockdown ‘sex fright’

Top tips for getting your sex life back on track

By Stephanie Taylor, Managing Director of Kegel8

Lockdown has meant months of either forced proximity or forced separation for couples. Combined with the stresses of health worries, job insecurity and being stuck in our homes, relationships and intimacy have (unsurprisingly) suffered.

Whether you’ve been with each other 24/7 or are reconnecting after months apart, Stephanie Taylor, intimate health expert and Managing Director of pelvic healthcare company Kegel8, gives her top tips for getting your sex life back on track…

Be honest

There’s no shame in feeling a little out of practice if you haven’t been intimate with your partner in a while. Or if you’ve spent lockdown together you may have fallen into a sexual routine that is boring or unsatisfying.

If you want to reignite that spark in your relationship, be honest about how you feel and what you want. Laying everything out on the table will mean there’s no awkwardly side-stepping an issue which can lead to tension.

This is the perfect time to explore, reconnect and find new things you both like.

Practice selfcare

Low self-esteem is one of the biggest libido killers and during lockdown, with no important social plans, you may have let yourself go. Who hasn’t!?

Looking good is all about feeling good, so take time out to focus on you. Take a long relaxing bath rather than a shower, invest in some at-home beauty treatments while the salons are still closed, and slip into your favourite lingerie set.

Sweat it out

Exercise is one of the best libido boosters. A regular fitness routine can give you the benefit of higher energy levels and increased stamina, making you more physically engaged in sex.

Aerobic exercise, like running, cycling and swimming, can also improve blood circulation around the body, including to your intimate area. Better blood flow can increase your chances of reaching climax and when you do, it will feel more intense.

Exercise can also give your mental wellbeing a real boost. When you work out, your body releases endorphins and lowers your levels of cortisol. Cortisol is also known as “the stress hormone” and this is a real libido killer. Now that’s a reason to get moving!

Go solo

Sex isn’t all about being performative and pleasing the other person, it’s also for yourself.

If you’ve been locked down alone or have gone through a dry patch in 2020, it can help to get back to basics. Masturbation can help you re-familiarise yourself with all the things you personally like and give you your sexual confidence back.

Experimenting with self-pleasure can also increase your stamina in the bedroom, giving both you and your partner more time to enjoy sex.

Cut it out

Having an unhealthy lifestyle can be seriously damaging to your libido.

It’s easy to turn to vices in stressful times but eating a diet high in saturated fat and refined sugar, smoking and heavy drinking can all affect your sex drive.

Libido-boosting foods are commonly called aphrodisiacs, after Aphrodite, the ancient Greek goddess of love. If you’re not into oysters, a diet rich in grains, pulses, avocados, leafy greens, fresh fruit and nuts should do the trick. Opt for low alcohol alternatives to your favourite tipple too.

Don’t suffer in silence

Sexual dysfunction is more common than you might think. For millions of women, pain or discomfort during sex is a reality. In fact, researchers estimate at least 1 in 13 British women experience it.

There’s a long list of things which can cause sex to be painful or uncomfortable for both partners, from Pelvic Organ Prolapse, Vaginal Atrophy (dryness), to Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) and STIs.

Don’t suffer in silence, your GP or gynecologist can discuss this with you and provide the right recommendations and treatments.
