Fresh from the vineyards of Napa Valley, California comes Davi, www.daviskin.com a revolutionary skincare line for men and women. Created by Carlo Mondavi, grandson to the modern American wine making icon Robert Mondavi. Davi is based upon the antioxidant health benefits found in the fermented grape extracts. A tribute to the Mondavi name, Davi products contain only “perfect” grapes, as set by the Mondavi standard of nine sets of eyes reviewing each grape before they are deemed suitable for inclusion. Carlo became intrigued by the concept of “freshly picked skincare,” focusing on the benefits of the pommace, a by-product of grape skins and seeds that result from the wine making process during fermentation. Through extensive research and collaboration with UC Davis, Carlo confirmed the immense health benefits of fermented grape extracts, pommace and the grape itself.
At the core of the products is a proprietary microencapsulated anti-aging antioxidant complex called Meritage. Created in close collaboration with laboratories in Lyon, France, Meritage is a unique blend of grape and fermented wine extracts, green tea, raspberry, black currant and bilberry extracts, rosemary and olive leaf extracts. Meritage is created through a unique double fermentation process and preserved in the formula until the moment it is applied to the skin. Because it is microencapsulated, the select high-level antioxidants of Meritage are able to remain active on the skin hours longer than conventionally created products. Meritage’s sustained time-release technology provides a slow infusion of antioxidant health benefits to the skin. A daily regimen of Davi skincare restores and rejuvenates, leaving your skin the picture of health young, radiant, and full of life.
Davi is a unique line of luxury skincare and specially formulated. Davi is extremely effective in the fight against aging, in addition to promoting the overall health and well being of your skin. Davi is created from the byproducts of the sacred winemaking process. During the fermentation of fine wine, a unique byproduct containing polyphenols, the world’s strongest known naturally occurring antioxidant is created.
Antioxidants are the best way to combat free radicals, the toxins generated by a variety of sources including sunlight, diet, smoke, and pollution that cause up to 80% of the visible signs of aging. These polyphenols, combined with other select natural ingredients are the basis for this revolutionary line of skincare products.
The comprehensive collection was developed around Le Grand Cru, Davi’s high- performance face cream. Grand Cru, or “great growth,” is the term bestowed to the top vineyards in France. True to its name, Le Grand Cru is formulated with only the finest ingredients, and of course, the exclusive Meritage anti-aging complex. Proven to have effective results, this premiere anti-aging cream moisturizes and rejuvenates, leaving skin fresh and full of youth. Serving as the centerpiece of the Davi collection, Le Grand Cru is the ultimate face cream. Davi includes unique and innovative skincare for both men and women. The clean, sleek packaging pays homage to the Mondavi family’s vineyard roots, with deep burgundy accents for the men’s products, and to the red grapes harvested, and a cool jade coloring for the women’s products, indicative of green grapes. Davi Skincare is proud to be featured as the in-room amenities collection for Peninsula Hotels around the world. Guests enjoy the antioxidant health benefits of Davi’s exclusive line of luxurious products including shower gel, bath bar, body lotion, shampoo and conditioner.
The entire Men’s and Women’s Collection available at www.daviskin.com.

Sugar, rum, and tobacco are commodities which are nowhere necessaries of life, which are become objects of almost universal consumption, and which are therefore extremely proper subjects of taxation.
— Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations, 1776
What it is:
A soda tax is a tax on sugar-sweetened beverages and those sweetened with caloric sweeteners.
Purpose:
To decrease the consumption of sugary beverages and to generate revenue for obesity-related medical costs.
(The following is far from being an exhaustive list of all who are for and against the tax.)
Who is for it:
Most recently, California Senate Majority Leader Dean Florez introduced his soda tax bill for California.
California Center for Public Health Advocacy helped Florez draft the bill.
The soda tax was first introduced in 1994 by Kelly D. Brownell, PhD., Director of the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale.
The current Director of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Thomas R. Frieden, and the above-mentioned Brownell argue for the taxation of sugary beverages in this 2009 New England Journal of Medicine article.
New York City Department of Health & Mental Hygiene
Dr. David A. Kessler, author of my personal favorite, The end of overeating.
The Center for Science in the Public Interest
Without coming right out and saying it, Dr. Nestle implies her interest in the tax with several related posts.
President Obama: “It’s an idea that we should be exploring,” the President said. “There’s no doubt that our kids drink way too much soda. And every study that’s been done about obesity shows that there is as high a correlation between increased soda consumption and obesity as just about anything else. Obviously there is resistance on Capitol Hill to those kinds of sin taxes,” he continued. “Legislators from certain states that produce sugar or corn syrup are sensitive to anything that might reduce demand for those products. And look, people’s attitude is that they don’t necessarily want Big Brother telling them what to eat or drink, and I understand that. It is true, though, that if you wanted to make a big impact on people’s health in this country, reducing things like soda consumption would be helpful.” — President Barack Obama to Men’s Health
Who is against it:
Beverage companies, and the American Beverage Association (ABA).
The ABA has this to say about the tax, “Families are still barely making it from paycheck to paycheck. Adding to their burden with a tax on their groceries should be the last way to tackle the state’s budget problems.” I think they need a heftier argument. Since when have sugary beverages become a staple of Americans’ groceries? They go on to say, “…this tax will threaten thousands of well-paying, New York jobs in the beverage and related industries.” Lack of jobs in New York? I can only hope that there would be a lack of jobs in the sugary beverage industry and other junk food industries!
Let’s see, who has our best interest in mind: doctors, professors, and directors of major health agencies……or beverage companies?
I can’t resist sharing this video:

Hemp-Based Skin And Hair Care products company Earthly Body announces its participation in HempCon 2010 at the Los Angeles Convention Center Friday, Saturday and Sunday February 19th, 20th and 21st. Visit Booth #428 to see Earthly Body’s most popular hemp skin and hair care products, including their new “Tattoo Tonic,” a hemp-based healing aftercare product. Also available will be their delicious, edible line-up of hemp massage candles, and hemp body lotions.
Kevin Wachs, president of Earthly Body, explains, “Our Tattoo Tonic heals with 100% natural ingredients, is petroleum-, paraben-, and lanolin-free, and will not fade a new tattoo. The Tattoo Tonic works as well on piercings as it does on new tattoos. After the peeling begins, we recommend continuing the healing with our Tattoo Tonic Miracle Lotion to help preserve the tattoo’s color and use as a moisturizer.”
HempCon began as a public forum to support medical marijuana and those who have benefited from its use. Due to the growing popularity of hemp and the acknowledgement of its many practical uses, HempCon is an opportunity for attendees to see and experience all the facets and applications of hemp, including Earthly Body’s skin and hair care.
Advocates of hemp approach it from many different perspectives – some wishing to legalize it as a drug, others to loosen the regulations on medical marijuana, and others, like Earthly Body, want to show yet another side of hemp – hemp oil as the perfect personal care ingredient.
Although hemp is still not legal to grow as a cash crop in the United States, many companies use industrial, drug-free hemp legally for its countless benefits in food, clothing, and like Earthly Body, for its almost miraculous results for skin and hair.
HempCon will take place Friday 4:00 PM - 9:00 p.m. Saturday 11:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m., and Sunday 11:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m., and Earthly Body will be there all 3 days. Visit them at Booth #428.
For more information go to www.earthlybody.com, and www.hempcon.com.
