Did you know our bodies are 86% water?  And yet, most of us don’t know how to hydrate it properly.  It’s not enough to just drink water, it needs to be the right water.  Ground water can leave your body too acidic, as it’s treated with chemicals, has a lot of fluoride and often contains parasites.  Bottled water can be better, but can be high in bacteria and contaminants and has no trace minerals.

So what to drink to hydrate ourselves in the healthiest way?  Try Kangen Water!  This new product contains NO chemicals, NO Acidity, and NO bacteria, plus it’s high in minerals, alkalinity, antioxidants and can detox your system safely.

Developed in Japan, Kangen Water claims to promote more energy, healthy skin and weight loss.  Dr. Yoshinski Matsuo, PhD, Vice President of the Water Institute in Japan, believes that reactive oxygen species (ROS) (free radicals that contain the oxygen atom) cause many types of damage to biomolecules and cellular structure; this in turn can cause the development of certain pathological states such as diabetes, cancer and aging.  He encourages people to drink electrolyzed-reduced water, which is hydrogen-rich and can scavenge those ROS and improve your hydration and health.  In fact, Kangen water devices are certified medical devices by the Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare for use in hospitals.

If you would like to try Kangen Water, and see how you can see an increase in your hydration and overall well-being, contact Colleen Iles at 513-335-5594 or ilescolleen1@gmail.com.  She’s an independent representative for Enagic, who makes Kangen Water.  There is a free 2 week trial option available, so now is the perfect time to call!

Buying a car can be stressful, and going through a dealership can often end up being more expensive and less satisfying than you want.  If you know exactly what you’re looking for, skip the dealerships and call Luxury Motorsports instead.

With Luxury Motorsports, all you need to do is tell them exactly what you are looking for, and then they do all the work.  They go through their databases of reputable, reliable auction sites and find that vehicle your heart is set on, whether it’s a car, boat, ATV or SUV.  A broker like Luxury Motorsports has the expertise you need when what you want isn’t on the local lot.

Luxury Motorsports will get you photos and ratings on the vehicle they find for you, and then when you give them the go-ahead, they bid on it for you and get it shipped in without you having to worry about a thing.  They also negotiate their fee with you up front, so there are no surprises at purchase time.  It’s the best, most hassle-free way to buy a car.

But that’s not all they do.  If you have an exotic car you want to sell, bring it to Luxury Motorsports and they can market it for you.  Let them do all the leg work, field the calls, negotiate the sale…you just relax and wait to hear it’s been sold.

Cut out the middle man, and call Bill Elam at 513-200-3236 or Tim McGee at 513-383-1586 at Luxury Motorsports.  You’ll get the car of your dreams with the service of your dreams!

A gorgeous hotel in a prime location, perfect for both leisure and business travel…and burgers! You may not think of The Cincinnatian as your go-to place for a top-of-the-line hamburger, but trust us – you should!

As part of Burger Week, July 20-26, The Cincinnatian’s Cricket Lounge will again be serving their signature Cricket Burger. Burgers at participating locations are just $5, and this one is definitely the real deal. Sink your teeth into this classic American dish with bacon, American cheese, crispy onions, house-cut fries and fry sauce any day during Burger Week. This is a 4-diamond burger with a pub food feel, and it’s one they make all year ‘round, so you’re getting exactly the burger you expect.

You can also enjoy The Cricket Lounge’s other delicious menu items, if you aren’t a burger fanatic. From soups and salads to pastas and entrees such as short ribs, seared salmon and roasted pork loin, there’s something for every taste. You can also drop by The Palace, The Cincinnatian’s main restaurant. They will be launching a fresh, new summer menu on July 1^st, featuring farm-to-table offerings and 3 to 5 course tasting menus. They also will be planning some fabulous events focused on wine and bourbon pairings.

And then there’s the hotel itself. A stunning “Grand Hotel,” built in 1882, The Cincinnatian was the tallest building in Cincinnati at the time (at 8 stories) and designed by the same architect as Music Hall and City Hall. It was the finest hotel of its time – and that hasn’t changed. With 146 rooms, including 7 suites, the old world charm and sumptuous luxury still shines amidst the modern day amenities such as high-speed internet.   All guest rooms were recently renovated with a modern, contemporary flair, offering an elegant, classic feel that’s a joy to come back to after a day of sightseeing or business meetings.

The Cincinnatian is a hotel destination not to be missed when in town. And of course, don’t forget about the Cricket Burger during Burger Week!
