Beauty Breakthrough: Supplement for healthy and sexy legs

MANILA, Philippines - On a highly revolutionized and fast paced society, keeping your legs on top shape is essential to beat the hustles and bustles of an extremely-demanding lifestyle.  With the help of antistax, a special line of leg vein supplement, keeping your legs healthy and sexy while carrying out your daily errands from here to there is just a pill and gel away.

On June 3, “Tea Time With Tweetie and Ellie” was held at the Chi Spa Shangri-la Hotel to campaign for leg-care consciousness. The event was lead by antistax ambassadress Tweetie de Leon-Gonzales, a remarkable supermodel, TV personality, entrepreneur, wife, and mother and Gelli Victor, a licensed and AIM-certified body jam instructor.

Antistax is a developed by one of the world’s leading pharmaceutical companies, Boehringer Ingelheim, to avoid tired heavy legs. Antistax turns to the power of nature and science in making legs look and feel their best, leaving them refreshed and revived, in going through the catwalks of life.

The product is available in two forms: topical cooling leg gel and oral supplement. The cooling gel contains bioactive flaven, a type of flavanoid deried from a special variety of grape leaves, and the calming and cooling properties of peppermint oil and menthol, offering immediate relaxation. On the other hand, the tablet offers a 360mg of the same falavanoid, which may help improve the blood flow in the legs and fight tired, heavy legs.

One of the leg problems among women is the Chronic Venous Insufficiency, which results from an abnormal blood flow among the leg veins and results to tiredness and heaviness of legs, cramp, pain, swelling, and fatigue, and for most, the formation of spider and varicose veins.

Chronic Varicose Insufficiency is further explained by imagining how it would be like to have an elephant’s trunk tugging at the lower limbs, making each step sore and weighty; thus, explaining who Ellie is in every woman’s life.

On the event, Tweetie de Leon confessed how “Ellie” the elephant, a metaphor for leg cramps, has always been slowing her down. According to her, with her multifaceted lifestyle, leg cramps is a hard enemy to beat.

“I use my legs a lot for the various things I do in my life – sports, work, errands, and my social duties too. I need my legs to perform whenever and however they are needed. And since they are overworked, I make sure to take good care and pamper them regularly,” notes Tweetie.

But by staying active through running lapses and playing squash, watching what she eats through eating healthy food, and using antistax products, keeping Ellie from dragging her down becomes an easy task.

Gelli on the other hand, demonstrated some workouts we could do while at the office or during our free time to keep the blood flowing in our legs.

According to Boehringer Ingelheim Philippines Medical Manager for Consumer Health Care, Dr. Melvin Pasay, Boehringer Ingeheim Philippines Group Brand Manager, Chronic Varicose Insufficiency is common in every woman and is hereditary, but it can be prevented by eating right and balanced diet, keeping an active lifestyle, and by using the product.

The interactive event was attended by multi-labeled personality such as Nikki Valdez, Gelli de Belen, Agot Isidro, Mylene Dizon, and Regine Tolentino, who happily tried the free leg screening through a Plethysmograph and venous duplex scan. Attendees were also treated to leg and foot massages, where we were able to try the Antistax Cooling Leg Gel firsthand.

Now there is no excuse to not take care of your legs. With undemanding exercises, uncomplicated health habits and regimens, and of course, the regular use of antistax products, keeping your legs healthy and sexy is easy.

Antistax is available in all Mercury Drug Stores around the metro. Visit their website for more information about the products.
