Give the Gift of Wellness with AKALO
Americans spend an average of $36 billion on vitamins every year. Even more shocking is the number of pills we swallow each year: A whopping 150 billion.
The problem with such supplements, however, is twofold: Vitamins are always purchased with the best of intentions, but how often do we miss days, forget to take them, and then toss a half full bottle of expired vitamins in the trash? Worse, nearly 95% of the nutrients in oral vitamins never make it to the bloodstream, the only place vitamins are effective. Or as a doctor once so eloquently told me, "All you're doing is making your pee expensive."
Enter AKALO, a revolutionary lifestyle wellness brand devoted to creating innovative products to improve people's everyday lives. They do this through topical vitamin delivery and, as such, are bringing to life a completely new method to support a healthy and balanced lifestyle.
AKALO achieves this through vitamin patches which can deliver nutrients to the body continuously over the course of wear, bypassing the hostile digestive system and efficiently delivering vitamins to the skin. It's easy, discreet, and allows users to slap on a layer of vitamins and forget about it until the next day. Currently, AKALO is available in two varieties: Vitamin B1 Hangover Patches, and Vitamin D3 Immune Health Patches.
Vitamin B1 Hangover Patches
Capable of addressing hangovers, jet lag, and metabolism issues, these patches contain thiamine, also known as vitamin B1, an essential component in the metabolism of carbohydrates. When alcohol enters our body, it's treated as a carbohydrate and requires B1 to effectively process it. The body's stores of B1 are quickly used up after a few drinks, so it's important to constantly replenish our body with these nutrients to mitigate the next day symptoms of drinking.
That could also mean a productivity hack for those needing to head back to work the day after the office holiday party (the CDC estimates that hangover-related hindered productivity costs the American economy billions every year!).
Vitamin D3 Immune Health Patches
When the body is exposed to sunlight, it naturally makes vitamin D. As such, not enough sun means not enough vitamin D. It's no wonder, then, that many people are deficient in this vital nutrient, which supports bone health, mood, immune health, and cardiovascular health. In general, there is broad agreement that vitamin D has a positive effect on the human body. It's possible to increase one's vitamin D from catching some rays or eating certain foods, but if your doctor has ever told you to add a vitamin D supplement to your regimen, this D3 patch is an innovative, effective solution.
Maybe you know someone who could benefit from these patches, or maybe you're looking forward to toasting the holidays and new year without the horrible next-day effects of alcohol. Either way, AKALO has got you covered.
