Sol Brah’s Treasure

I am asked every day about what Sol products and items I personally use in my quest to be the most vital form of myself. So, I decided to collate all of these into the one place so you too can elevate your health and enjoyment of life across every level.

See the following for the most elite products out there and what they will do for you - AND where to get them.

The bolded text at the start of the paragraph contains a link to what I recommend.

Ra Optics Blue Light Blocking Glasses - Blue light is a scourge on the health of us in the modern world. Primarily affecting your sleep, but impacting your hormones as well as even your metabolism and the amount of fat we store on the body! When we work on computers and mobile phones throughout the day as well, that artificial light contributes to eye strain. For a full breakdown, read my thread here.

Many people think they are ‘night owls’, when really this is just a response to artificial light exposure confusing your body about when to wake and go to sleep.

The best course of action is to eliminate it entirely (turn all lights off in your house once the sun goes down, use candlelights and dimmed salt lamps) - but when we cannot do that, blue light blocking glasses from Ra Optics will protect your eyes and circadian rhythm, making you feel more tired at night and increasing the quality of your sleep. I use the Daytime yellow glasses when working at my PC and when the sun goes down, the red lenses. Order with the Discount code: SOLBRAH.

Vital Red Light Panels - What does Red Light Therapy do? It improves cellular health, gives you clearer and better skin, increases hair growth and gives thicker hair, benefits muscle recovery, increases your vascularity and helps ALL of our mitochondria work better overall. I even ‘sun my balls’ with it as it has a similar effect to some of the light spectrum from sunlight. For the full explanantion, read here. Vital Red Light is what I use and really recommend them for use daily, to wake up in the morning or wind down in the evening. I strongly advise you use this if you are in an area with low or no sunlight, or in winter time. Order with the Discount code: SOLBRAH.

Greco Gum - Sculpt your jaw muscles - improve teeth, gum and gut health, NATURALLY with the ancient resin of a greek bush: used as a chewing gum with ZERO garbage in it. Mastic gum contains antioxidants and has been clinically shown to relieve digestive and gastrointestinal issues due to its antimicrobial, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. I chew it after meals to ‘clean’ the teeth and before to promote saliva production.

Van Man’s Beef Tallow Balm and Health Products (Moisturiser, Toothpaste, Lip Balm, Mouthwash) - Sol Brah, what moisturiser do you use? Nothing else will touch my skin other than Van Man’s tallow balm. With all natural ingredients, your skin will love it. Many people report skin issues such as acne and eczema clearing up after using this balm for the first time. I am also partial to the Eggshell based tooth powder, a great alternative to mass produced, toxic fluoride-containing toothpastes. Check out the site for all their products.

Clothing - Most people don’t realise the polyester-based clothing is affecting their hormones as endocrine disruptors just like plastic does. Read more about this toxic influence here. What we want our clothing to be made of is natural materials such as cotton, linen, hemp, wool, fur, leather and silk. You should look at the tag to see what your clothes are made of - its likely you have some synthetic, petroleum based fibres hiding. Natural fibers are water absorbents and are better at wicking away sweat and heat; so are much comfier and more hygienic anyway. Of course, my brand Sol Apparel features clothes and items that will always ONLY be natural fibre-based, and are stylish as well. Check them out 100% cotton clothes from Sol Apparel.

Water Filter - The core of our life and health, drinking high quality water is imperative to get onto in order to live a healthy life. I recommend a water filter such as a Berkey or a glass bottomed filter from Zazen. Other options include drinking natural spring water from glass bottles - as plastic will leech chemicals into the water you drink. You can also get large glass bottles and refill them from filter stations (often outside of stores like Whole Foods) or a local alkaline water store.

The Best Shower Filter - Most people know that tap water is toxic to drink, full of chlorine, fluoride and who knows what else that is leaked into the water supply but isn’t filtered out through conventional water treatment. But that tap water is the same water that you shower in multiple times a day. In the average shower your skin is absorbing litres of tap water, poisoning you slowly. Some people have eczema or flaky scalp because of the quality of their shower water being terrible. For this reason, I filter my shower filter using the only filter I’ve found that helps take out fluoride as well. When you shower in filtered water, your skin is less dry, your hair more hydrated and you feel better.

Desk chair - Recently I have been doing a deep dive into natural resting movement patterns, as you are probably aware our sitting posture that we spend hours in each day is contributing to these back or hip pains we may have. As I do spend hours a day at my computer, I wanted to find a chair option that supports better resting postures, so I was recommended to get this desk chair. It takes a bit to get used to, but once you are there the natural resting posture is optimal
