Yes he mentioned it at the very beginning of the Cinnamon product presentation.

Not a lot of hits on google for that (it's buried under the Burberry store stuff LOL).

I need to go out to the pub med site and look at the research on that to see what it's all about.

My order is set for delivery on Wednesday.  It said SurePost originally but it looks like UPS switched them all to regular ground.

They pushed those bottles out the door pretty darned fast!

Wow.  My orders are on the truck for delivery today.

I see a cup of green earl grey in my future!

Okay I have unpacked my haul.  Mercy!

First up, the 720 HHS&N + MC Bundle comes in a cute box.  The is the first bundle I've bought that came all packaged like that.  The other TS bundles I've purchased were just the separate bottles or possibly shrink wrapped together.  Fancy!  But I'm surprised he would waste packaging like that being the environmental conscious person that he is.

Anyway, I compared the old label I have (my original MC bottle from January of 30 servings) to the label on line and the label on the new bottle today and they are exactly the same.

However, the powder itself is definitely new.  It is much more finely milled than the previous version, it is the finest, lightest powder (like makeup, if not even lighter) AND it's not sticky.  I would get it on my fingers when digging into the bottle sometimes or pour some on the back of my hand when transferring it to the smaller bottle and I always had to wash it off because it was sticky.  I got some on my hands and I was able to just brush it off.

I'm not doing a taste test or anything, I'm still sticking with my lemon water.  It works for me.

I am going to take a shower and play with my new Origami shelves and I will be back to review the tea.

We will be having the Green Earl Grey tea this evening ;o)

The tea is quite  nice.  I've been curious about the green earl grey because that's my favorite tea.  He did a nice job.  You never forget that it's green tea, but he did a nice job mixing it to make it taste like early grey.  I'll definitely buy a box and alternate with my regular black earl grey.  I think this is nice at night, less caffeine.

I drink my tea with cream (like the Queen, with whom I also share a birthday), so it's a little gross to look at green milky tea, but it tastes great.

VaBelle, thanks for sharing how the old version of the MC compares with the new version.

I know how keen Andrew is on having supplements that look like powder for easier absorbtion and how when water needs to be added to a product he wants to make sure the products are easily mixed with water. Maybe that was the reason for the change of MC powder.

I've pretty much decided that I will cave in and order a large MC container when Andrew is back on this weekend... along with the Untlmate Friendly Flora and Cranberry Benefits, and some Iron because I'm running short. 

Thanks also for your review of his Earl Grey Green Tea. My favorite tea is Earl Grey which unfortunately has the smallest percentage of ECGC in it. I don't like green ea so what I do is add white tea to my Earl Grey because white tea has almost no taste to it. While white tea has the highest EGCG and other tea phenols in it, I don't know just how good my white tea is. It's probably just average but at least doing this boosts the overall tea phenol content. 

btw, did you know that EGCG helps to protect your body against the sky's damaging rays (I think in a manner similar to how zeaxanthin/lutein pretect the eyes) and the Pomagranate supplement does as well.  Lycopene also protects the skin but, in this case, it's much cheaper to supplement with cooked tomatoes than purchase supplements. -- Therere probably other veggies/fruits that help out as well but these are the three that I know about. -- Of course, I'm NOT saying that this should replace using sunscreen, it's just an additional way to shield your body from the sun's rays.

Yes I take the ECGC in various supplements of Andrews.  I have the Ultimate Eye and I think there is some in some of the others I take, like the Women's Ultimate Complete Max 100 (or whatever the packet of daily vitamins in called).

I was not a gree tea fan, but I love Mighty Leaf Tea brand Organic Spring Jasmine Green Tea.  It's very light and the jasmin kills the green tea.  I imagine Andrew's Jamsin Green will be similar.

I also drink Ito En Jasmine Green iced tea.  I order it by the case from Amazon, that's the cheapest anywhere.

VaBelle, thanks for sharing some of the green tea brands that you use. I'll have to see if I can get them at my grocery store. Unfortunately I don't like jasmine tea (thought I love jasmine soap... just not to drink *s*). I do want to check out the green mint tea because I might like that. 

btw Where do you purchase the Woman's Ultimate Complete Max, from the H? If so you should check out the Procaps Labs site because they offer four (used to be five) different multi-vitamin levels which are all cheaper that the more or less equivalent formulas at the H.

I ordered the HH&N/MC 720;  I've been using his HH&N for years and have seen the difference and so have other people and I brought his Marine Collagen to try the last time he was on and even though I haven't been taking it every day I definitely notice how it has spiked my HH&N regime no stiffness in the morning and my joints are cracking like firewood either.

I also restocked the Essential One vitamin and the Memory and Brain vitamins.
