Nikocado Avocado Woke up 250lbs Lighter! Vegan Again?!

Image
The Mukbang king, Nikocado Avocado, broke his 7 month silence after uploading a video to his channel last night.   He first appeared in the video wearing a big Panda head mask.  Beyond that gigantic panda mask, there was something noticeably different about Nick!   There was a super thin body under the mask!  Could this be a clone of Nikocado?  Is this really the same person who would down several cheeseburgers, nuggets, stuffed tacos and huge plates of noodles in one sitting?  Nikocado is the self proclaimed mukbang king of the internet and with that title came loads of weight gain. It was a real shock to see him slimmer than what he used to be as a vegan.  At the beginning of the video, he stated how he was "two steps ahead."  He went on to say that he had been a part of one of the greatest social experiments of his entire life and likened himself to being a villain of a story where he was able to have significant influence over his followers while remaining two steps ahead

Poosh Wellness Festival 2020

Poosh’s 1st Wellness Festival took place yesterday! This self-care retreat was an experience with 12 virtual sessions on topics such as DIY flower arrangement and skin care, detoxing your shower routine, and more. The virtual festival kicked off with a matcha opening ceremony and a quick interview between Kourtney Kardashian and her best friend Sarah. Kourtney elaborated on the reason she started Poosh:





“When I started Poosh, I really loved the most—the idea of sharing a lifestyle and of sharing information with people in a non judgmental, just really accessible way.”
Kourtney also said that she would receive questions about the foods she was eating or about her lifestyle and from there, the idea for Poosh developed. As for this wellness festival, she mentioned that she wanted to dedicate a day to bringing a live wellness experience to people.
Standout Sessions
I thought all of the sessions were informative. It was a nice peek into the natural health and wellness lifestyle for those who are newbies to it. There were a few standouts that I enjoyed most at POOSH Wellness Festival! They were:
1.) Glutes Workout and Post Workout Smoothie with Courtney King (Courtney had such amazing energy and put together a glutes workout that is sure to get results)! It was leg day on steroids! I put my own spin on the smoothie which I’ll share in another post : )

2.) Lymphatic Drainage Facial with Camila Perez with Adrienne as a lively subject (Camilla spilled her prized secrets to giving a spectacular lymphatic drainage facial. This is a wellness activity that can be useful for folks who take self-care seriously, especially considering the lack of access to wellness retreats and centers at the moment).

3.) DIY Body scrub with Nyakio Kamoche Grieko (The one key ingredient in Nyakio’s scrub was coffee but not just any ole coffee…East African Kenyan coffee which is said to have notes of citrus in the flavor.) Though I’m not a fan of caffeine, I will acknowledge that it has benefits for the skin. It was nice hearing Nyakio’s story about her grandparents who passed on body care recipes to her.

4.) Guided Meditation with Ryan Haddon (Ryan offered self affirmations that were empowering and soul-elevating).

5.) How to Take the Perfect Selfie with Malika Haqq and Roxy Rodriguez (For some, taking the perfect selfie can be a mood lifter (haha)! There was a phone featured in this session that wowed the techie in me. The phone was foldable and seems perfectly designed for taking selfies. Turns out, it is called, the Samsung Galaxy Z flip. That’s a really cool phone!

After the festival, participants were given a virtual gift bag with promos for products from sponsoring brands. My only gripe about the festival is that I thought the event was going to be live streamed. Sessions were pre-recorded. I can see this being a really amazing retreat-style in-person event once life normalizes again.
Well—that’s a wrap Ms. Kourtney and a good wrap at that--so klaps to you for following your primary purpose of pooshing people into health and wellness.
Would you like to experience Poosh’s Wellness Festival for yourself? The sessions will be up for viewing until Oct 31st! Purchase your all access ticket here: Get tickets

Image
Apple premiered their yearly Apple Event introducing the new Apple Series 9 Apple Watch and the iPhone 15 standard, plus and pro models.  During the event, a commercial was premiered featuring Octavia Spencer, Tim Cook (CEO of Apple), Lisa Jackson (VP of Environment, Policy and Social Initiatives.  This funny commercial saw Octavia present herself as “Mother Nature,” a stern yet comical corporate responsibility officer.  Before Octavia entered the scene, all the officers and workers at the meeting were shuffling around looking nervous and anxious while drinks shook on the table.   We even saw Tim Cook rehearsing the lines that he would repeat to Mother Nature when she entered.   After Mother Nature arrives, Tim Cook, asks her “how was the weather getting in?” Mother Nature then says, “the weather was however I wanted it to be!”   Mother nature reminds Mr. Cook of his promise in 2020—which is to bring Apple’s carbon footprint to zero by 2030. As the commercial ensued, the viewer learns

Leave the Sea Turtles Alone: Nine Die from Consuming Marine Turtle Meat

Image
Nine individuals passed away from consumption of endangered marine turtles in Pemba Island, Zanzibar last month.  A total of eight children and one adult died due to chelonitoxism or food poisoning from the contaminated turtle meat.  Death from chelonitoxication is thought to be a rare happening and is mostly associated with consuming marine turtles such as Green sea turtle, Hawksbill turtle, Olive Ridley and Leatherback turtles.    Consumption of sea turtles is considered a delicacy in remote places and African countries such as Tanzania and Madagascar, French Polynesia and Indo-Pacific regions.  The sea meat is usually consumed at celebratory gatherings.  The individuals who cook and consume marine turtles are unable to decipher if the meat is toxic because the marine turtles appear healthy and do not display any symptoms.  The chelonitoxins cannot be destroyed through heat or cooking.  The chelonitoxism that occurs in marine turtles are due to environmental factors which may include
