You Can Be Like Any Fit and Healthy Celebrity!
Celebrities like Khloe Kardashian and others, have proven that hard work at the gym and setting goals can get you on the fit lane.
You sit there, reading all those celeb stories and scrolling through countless social media celeb feeds, reading about their fitness regimens and saying to yourself, “yeah, I should do that!”… but have you?
Globally, health is a matter of tremendous concern and of course, albeit with the social state of mind we’ve all developed, one would be crazy not to take note of the celebs and how they’re hitting the gym and eating right to show off their perfect bods to the millions that take in their profile pics daily. Then again, you could just do it for YOU! That seems like a better plan.
Now, we totally understand the challenge being fit poses to many of you hard working career people out there. It’s tough. When you’ve got kids, housework, a career and meetings… who’s got time to exercise and prepare well balanced meals right? Well most recently, a company that calls itself Anatomie, reissued its call to Caribbean people, from its base in T&T, to get fit and use its online resources to their advantage. A couple Saturdays ago, Anatomie launched its website- www.anatomiett.com, and by the look of it, they’re committed to helping West Indians get fit, eat healthy and live longer.

The online resource offers, “a comfortable, convenient, accurate, variated, and simple solution to your wellness goals,” according to company spokesperson, Derron Roberts. He told EBUZZTT the Anatomie website is home to a wide range of articles, locally produced exercise videos, features, promotions, and a state of the art Nutrition System that recommends local and Caribbean cuisine through its menu planning. “The nutrition system calculates and managers individual’s required calories and macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, fats) on an individual goal(s) and activity level basis,” Roberts told us.
Now, if you think that’s it. Think again! Anatomie is becoming well known for Smoothies… yes, delicious, healthy smoothies. With it’s roving caravan, Anatomie smoothies moves from corporate functions or events to sports and family days, wellness events and leisure activities. They’ve got over 20 originally developed recipes that are made from real fruits and other liquids and ingredients.
A number of Caribbean celebrities have, in recent time, been motivating their fans to get fit and eat healthy. Trinidad and Tobago’s Nadia Batson, Destra Garcia, Patrice Roberts, Fay Ann Lyons, model and former Miss World representative, Athaliah Samuel are just a few. According to Batson, who recently joined forces with Nestle’s Orchard Calorie Conscious, its all about becoming the healthiest person she can become, for herself. The sex appeal just happens to be a bonus! Nestle too, has been pushing wellness and health, launching the calorie conscious orchard product in November 2015, and assuring that the new orange juice drink assists with weight management and overall health and wellness.

“Straighten out De Ting.” Sizzla to T&T Artistes at Redemption.
Comparing Redemption 9 with the 2023 edition of the concert would be a grave mistake. In fact, organisers themselves have made it abundantly clear that the aim is never to outdo the previous year’s lineup, but rather, to present artistes who deliver on consciousness and positivity, annually.
At the Queen’s Park Savannah in Port of Spain, Trinidad on Saturday, Sizzla Kalonji and Steel Pulse were the two artistes chosen to deliver conscious music. Christopher Martin and Collie Buddz, engaged patrons with sensuality and that laid back vibe, while Super Cat, older now, tied up the visiting cast with songs reminiscent of the good ole 90’s. Trinidad and Tobago reggae hit makers, Jamelody and Mr. King delivered their energy between the sets of Collie Buddz and Sizzla Kalonji, exciting local fans equally.
Redemption 9 made good on its effort to provide patrons with ease this year, adjusting bar staff issues and catering to the complaints of long lines in that area. Additionally, parking for VIP and VVIP patrons, was fulfilled as advertised and as per usual, the Savannah grass offered General admission patrons free access to park safely. Undoubtedly one of the Caribbean’s most credible concert brands, Redemption, after nine years of promoting positive music and artistes, stood proudly amid concerns that another concert brand would directly compete for patron support. It would go without saying however that true fans of conscious reggae music would stand firm, choosing Sizzla and Steel Pulse on Saturday, June 1st.
After an early stage show by Steel Pulse – now enjoying 49 years of performance, both Collie Buddz and Christopher Martin offered their performances, but most would agree that the night belonged to Sizzla – the artiste who has led with humility and positivity for over two decades.
