VEEN waters made its debut appearance in the German market last month at the premiere of the new action-comedy film, “Knight and Day” featuring Cameron Diaz and Tom Cruise. The star-studded event took place at the Gloria Movie theatre in Munich on 21 July 2010.

The 48-year-old actor signed autographs and met with fans who came to scope out their favourite stars. Cameron looked super chic in a Bottega Veneta dress and Pierre Hardy shoes! Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz enjoyed VEEN, in addition to all the guests who made it out to the Red Carpet on this warm summer evening in Munich. The event marked the first entry of the Finnish premium water brand into the German market where the brand will soon be available in key restaurants, bars and hotels.

Now sold in selected high-end restaurants and hotels around Europe and the Middle East, including being the house brand of Harrods Department Store in London, VEEN comes from a free-flowing spring in the natural wilderness of Finnish Lapland, one of the least populated areas of Europe. Spring water in this location is exceptionally low in nitrate levels and this low minerality in the Lappish soil creates a unique, smooth taste. In addition to the taste, the water is presented in an award winning designed bottle, which completes the package.

This month we had a chance to meet Michelin star chef, Vineet Bhatia at his flagship restaurant, Rasoi in London – Here’s an exclusive insight into how it all started…..

Stress is an indelible part of modern life. Our personal and professional environment increasingly calls for more multi-tasking, meeting tighter deadlines, longer travel, leaving less time for sleep and recovery, pushing us to the edge and to flirt with ruinous burnout. The proportion of modern society suffering from negative symptoms of stress is constantly growing, having doubled in the last 10 years in industrial countries. The health consequences of stress are numerous. Psychological problems of memory loss and lack of concentration, impatience and aggressiveness, guilt feelings and depression are compounded by physiological issues, such as weakening immune system, hormonal imbalance in women and premature aging. Sleep disorders, indigestion, headaches, hypertension and bulimia add up to the long list of issues.

Tranquilizers and sleeping pills are widely used but their side effects and dependency risk are a big downside. Phytotheraphy, as a totally natural way to tackle stress, is now gaining popularity but is mainly available in the form of herbal teas or dietary supplements. Purelosophy AG in Switzerland has developed a range of natural wellness drinks to cope with stresses of a modern life. Purelosophy Relax drink is designed to help relieve stress, anxiety and most importantly insomnia (problems with falling asleep). The relax formula contains a clinically proven lemon balm extract on top of hops, lavender, peppermint and chamomile. Comparative studies have shown that lemon balm has superior relaxing properties at lower dosages compared to valerian and passionflower, while having no diurnal drowsiness or other side effects. The lemon balm extract in Relax was tested in a randomised, placebo-controlled human study in Europe and two weeks of administration proved to

  • Significantly reduce stress manifestations by 32%
  • Reduce stress-associated symptoms by 72%
  • Reduce Insomnia by 60%

    Purelosophy Relax contains a recommended daily dosage of the clinically proven lemon balm in two 250ml cans and only 29 calories per 100ml that are gradually metabolised due to clinically proven low glycemic load of Relax.
