Introducing Sulinu

Sulinu

Sulinu, the trailblazing company transforming the approach to pre- and post-operative nutritional care, announces its official launch. Established by the highly regarded Clinical Dietitian, Kylie Bensley MS, RD, Sulinu introduces a paradigm shift with her comprehensive nutrition programs incorporating clinically-proven ingredients to enhance preparation for and recovery from elective procedures. As the first company of its kind, Sulinu is poised to make a profound impact on the cosmetic surgery industry, setting new standards for patient care and outcomes. Boasting over a decade of experience as a distinguished expert in nutrition, Bensley has dedicated her career to working with esteemed hospital post-surgical facilities in Cambridge and Boston, MA. Through this experience, she observed the challenges hindering proper healing and the consequent damage to the body resulting from insufficient nutrients for optimal repair. What makes Sulinu truly groundbreaking and a category innovator is that has created: The inaugural and most complete surgical recovery powder on the market and the ONLY medical-grade one available to consumers An All-IN-ONE powder that delivers vital bioavailable ingredients to the bloodstream for optimal recovery, including proteins, collagen, vitamins, enzymes, minerals and amino acids. A cleaner and more wholesome alternative to the enteral and oral nutritional supplements utilized in leading surgical facilities The ONLY powder of its kind to completely dissolve in liquid A once-daily, superblend scoop delivers immune-boosting, mind-calming and incision-healing properties for optimal nutrition and recovery Sulinu stands at the forefront of innovations in cosmetic surgery nutrition, ensuring that individuals can now navigate their surgical journeys with enhanced support and optimal well-being. By pioneering a program that underscores the importance of gut health in incision healing, Bensley simplifies and streamlines the dietary process for the body to bolster immunity, minimize swelling, alleviate bruising and fill nutrient gaps. "Nutrition is a fundamental yet often overlooked aspect of the cosmetic surgery journey,” says Bensley. “Sulinu was born out of the belief that individuals deserve inclusive, expert-guided nutrition plans to optimize their surgical experience, from preparation to recovery." The Sulinu program is designed with three key components that work collectively to combat the factors known to impair incision healing, increase infection risk, and delay overall downtime. 1. Before + After Vitals Dietary Powder Supplement*: An all-in-one gluten-free powder formulated with patented ingredients to deliver the essential and crucial nutrients needed before and after surgery. Bioenhanced Vitamin C – clinically proven to reduce inflammation and help grow and repair body tissue Proteolytic Enzymes - helps absorb protein and reduce the amount that’s excreted when combined with other proteins, increasing the absorption of total serum amino acids, which are essential for incision healing Hydrolyzed Collagen - stimulates skin cells to produce more collagen, essential to giving skin structure, strength and elasticity Biome Synbiotics – blend of both patented prebiotics and patented probiotics clinically proven to survive stomach acids and arrive alive in the gut to support a healthy microbiome. 2. Pre-Op Meal Guide. This extensive guide not only prepares the body to fast-track beautiful results, it also helps navigate dietary pitfalls that can contribute to experiencing dangerous complications. All recipes are carefully curated with ingredients that work together to turbocharge healing in efforts to avoid excessive bruising, swelling and slow-to-mend incisions. 3. Comprehensive 2-Week Post-Op Meal Plan. Tailored to specific cosmetic procedures (tummy, face, breast), each delicious, nutrient-rich, high-protein recipe is designed to alleviate nausea, pain, constipation, and optimize skin healing. Every ingredient serves a specific post-surgery recovery purpose (i.e. flax for fiber, bone broth for absorbable amino acids, turmeric for anti-inflammatory effects). Sulinu stemmed from Bensly’s frustrations in witnessing patients being prescribed multiple vitamins to augment protein powders. This not only proved costly for the patient, but ineffective because supplement dosages were incorrect and were not paired with ingredients that helped maximize absorption. This often disrupted the patient’s gut biome and hindered healing. Sulinu makes accessing the most effective and clinically proven nutrition available while also offering: Expert Guidance from a Registered Dietitian: With Kylie Bensley at the helm, Sulinu provides access to expert guidance from a registered dietitian with a wealth of knowledge in both nutrition and the specific requirements of cosmetic surgery patients. Pre-Operative Optimization: Sulinu emphasizes the importance of pre-operative nutrition to prepare the body for surgery. Through specialized dietary recommendations, clients can enhance their resilience and support their bodies in the lead-up to their cosmetic procedures. Post-Operative Recovery Support: Sulinu's post-operative nutrition plans are designed to accelerate recovery, reduce inflammation, and promote optimal healing. These plans address the unique nutritional needs that arise after cosmetic surgery, contributing to a smoother and more comfortable recovery process. Evidence-Based Approach: Sulinu is committed to an evidence-based approach, incorporating the latest research in nutrition science to guide its recommendations. This ensures that clients receive the most up-to-date and effective nutritional support throughout their cosmetic surgery journey. * Many supplements rely solely on third-party testing, which only states the presence of the vitamin. Sulinu also uses patented ingredients to ensure effectiveness at the clinically studied amounts. Recognized as safe by FDA (GRAS-affirmed): a much harder accreditation to achieve than those of standard supplement safety. Price and Availability: All-in-One Starter Kit: $297-$347 Before + After Vitals: $97 / 20 servings (1 pouch) Pre-Op Meal Guide: $97 Post-Op Meal Plan: $197-$294 Contacts: Find us: sulinu.com Follow us: LinkedIn · IG · TikTok · Facebook: # # # PR contacts: JJBPR Tara@jjbpr.com Jennifer@jjbpr.com Contact Details JJBPR Jennifer Bickerton +1 917-968-7763 jennifer@jjbpr.com JJBPR jennifer bickerton jennifer@jjbpr.com JJBPR Tara Watnik Tara@jjbpr.com Company Website https://www.sulinu.com

YourFMO Helps Provide 3 Million Meals to Feeding America® in 2023

YourFMO

YourFMO, a national, non-governmental, independent marketing organization providing agents with valuable resources to help clients decide on Medicare options, announced that it has donated a milestone 3 million meals to Feeding America in 2023. YourFMO first partnered with Feeding America in 2019 with a shared goal: to help people get the food and resources they need to thrive. In service of this partnership, YourFMO donates the equivalent of 10 meals for every effective insurance enrollment that agents submit through the YourFMO Enrollment Center. Since the inception of this program in 2019, agent submissions via the YourFMO Enrollment Center, an essential agent resource, have grown significantly, resulting in an overall donation of the equivalent of 7.5 million meals to the Feeding America network of food banks, food pantries, and local meal programs. In 2023, YourFMO set an aggressive goal to donate the equivalent of 1 million meals. “We were thrilled to have reached 2 million meals this year, but to see us now passing the 3 million meal mark, we could not be more pleased” said Matthew Graham, senior vice president and YourFMO program leader. “We’re exceptionally grateful for the independent agents who use our enrollment center. Their support is the reason we reached this milestone in the battle against hunger.” Through its Feeding America partnership, the YourFMO team has gained new insights into the challenges faced by Americans experiencing food insecurity. Graham said the 2020 coronavirus pandemic and resulting economic downturn brought into clearer focus the important services Feeding America provides, especially within the senior population. According to Feeding America, 1 in 14 seniors, age 60 and older, was food insecure in 2021 and 7.1% of the senior population was food insecure. Every state is home to seniors and older adults who experience food insecurity. “YourFMO’s support of Feeding America has been outstanding,” said Lauren Biedron, senior vice president, Corporate Partnerships, Feeding America. “Through their generosity, they have helped to provide 7.5 million meals since 2019 to our neighbors facing hunger in the U.S. We are appreciative of YourFMO and thank them for their support." YourFMO’s support for Feeding America has inspired other efforts, including those with one of its closest partners. “The YourFMO team is relatively small, but they have motivated others across AmeriLife,” said Scotty Elliott, Chief Distribution Officer of Health for AmeriLife. “We’ve used YourFMO’s blueprint to organize other highly successful events with Feeding America throughout our company, and it’s uplifting to know that the food donations from our partners and employees have also helped so many in our community and across our nation.” YourFMO’s commitment to Feeding America will continue into the new year. “We’re so very grateful for the support from our independent agents and AmeriLife,” added Graham. “If we keep up this pace, YourFMO is certain to exceed an overall donation of 10 million meals in 2024.” Individuals wanting to support YourFMO’s efforts can visit its Team Feed Corporate donation page to make a financial contribution. ### About YourFMO YourFMO is a national non-government, independent marketing organization that is a one-stop shop for independent agents to grow their business.

Investors Dogpile Into Dogecoin and Galaxy Fox for End-of-Year Crypto Surge

RoundHouse Media

Investors Dogpile Into Dogecoin and Galaxy Fox for End-of-Year Crypto Surge As 2023 comes to an end, investors are piling into $DOGE and $GFOX for a massive end-of-year crypto surge. So, why these two? The upcoming DOGE-1 moon mission, a SpaceX project fully funded by $DOGE, drives the excitement surrounding Dogecoin. Meanwhile, Galaxy Fox ($GFOX), a more recent arrival on the market, gained major interest after raising over $400k in a few short weeks. These remarkable achievements have not gone unnoticed, and investors have started to look at these two as the best meme coins to buy now. What Makes $GFOX the Best ICO Crypto of 2023? Galaxy Fox is quickly becoming very popular on the market with its rewarding and exciting platform that blends gaming, DeFi, staking, and NFTs. This new ERC20 coin powers a Web3 running game where users can compete with each other and gain tangible rewards. Each gaming season, which will be held weekly and monthly, the top 20% of players will receive a share of the prize pool. This pool, raised with the in-game purchases, also funds the treasury and supports long-term project growth. An essential component of the Galaxy Fox ecosystem is staking. This program is powered by 2% of all transaction fees, which are collected in the Galaxy Fox Stargate reward pool. This setup, which rewards investors who lock up their $GFOX tokens, supports long-term holding and gives $GFOX a great competitive edge among the best meme coins to buy now. A clever tax structure supports the further sustainability of the token. Besides the mentioned 2% staking pool fee, another 4% is deducted from each $GFOX sale/purchase, supporting liquidity pool and treasury. This approach guarantees a steady stream of capital for future expansion and discourages investors from selling. One of the most notable aspects of Galaxy Fox is its presale, whose phased approach indicates a guaranteed 450% growth by the end. The presale will include ten separate stages, each will start at a higher price and, in the end, will reward the earliest backers with the highest rewards. Apart from this, the whole ICO phase will be packed with bonuses and giveaways, so the chances to profit with $GFOX are truly massive. The project has just entered the second presale phase, but many expect quick sellouts, considering the intensive buying pressure and adoption rate. So, ensure you join in early and benefit from all these opportunities. Is $DOGE Rebounding? In May 2021, SpaceX founder Elon Musk, in collaboration with Geometric Energy Corporation, first announced the DOGE-1 mission, which aims to broadcast advertisements from space. The plan was to integrate it into an Intuitive Machines ridesharing mission. According to the latest news, NTIA has finally approved the project’s X-Band frequency. This development, considering the DOGE-1 Satellite being fully funded by $DOGE, has already positively impacted the cryptocurrency's performance. It's important to keep an open mind on Dogecoin, though. While such events can cause some short price boosts, $DOGE’s long-term growth is always a topic of debate. This is because $DOGE is inflationary and lacks in-house developments, which have always been, and most likely will be, the main reasons for its volatility and sharp declines. Summary Finding the best meme coins to buy now is a tricky task. Yet, looking at the market direction and trends can help a lot. $DOGE seems to rebound finally, but the hype might be short-lived. Meanwhile, Galaxy Fox is becoming a fascinating new player, with an ecosystem built for long-term success and consistent financial returns. So don’t miss out on this exciting newcomer with insane profit potential. Check out their presale today to cash in on the biggest rewards.

Asia University Taiwan International Student Design
