CBD

CBD or cannibidiol is a naturally occurring substance in the Cannabis family. CBD can be extracted from marijuana or hemp.  Zilis CBD is from the Hemp plant so it contains low or no THC (<0.3%) and cannot get you ‘high’ and you will not fail a drug test unless you are taking something else alongside.

Our bodies have an Endocannibinoid System (ECS) which was only fully discovered in 1988. It is the master of all the other systems we have in our body – digestive system, central nervous system etc, so when our ECS works well, then so do our other systems.

Our ECS has a series of receptors on our brain and throughout our organs. These receptors should work to help control sleep, mood, pain. However due to poor diet, lack of exercise, lack of sleep, stress and the environment they often don’t work well and so we rely on chemical pills to help our body, which can have secondary effects on our organs.

By supplementing our ECS with CBD which already occurs naturally in our body, we are helping to clean or detox these receptors so they work better and more efficiently, therefore helping homeostasis and to balance our sleep, mood and to relieve pain, but naturally.

Zilis Ultracell CBD oil is

  • Full Spectrum (with over 400 active compounds)
  •  Organic (no herbicides, pesticides, or heavy metals)
  • Low or no THC (less than 0.3%)
  • Clean CO2 extraction
  • Ultracell technology, allowing our CBD oil to mix with the water in your body – between 80-94% absorption, regular CBD oils have maximum 5-10% absorption, so you take less with greater effect in your body and it lasts 12 hours in the body, regular oils last 2-3 hours. As per Clinical Trials at the Mayo Clinic.
  • Each product has a QR code and Certificate of Analysis – every batch or product is tested and certified
  • Zilis has a full range of Hemp CBD products including Ultracell Full Spectrum Oil, Ultracell Topical gel, Lishé CBD skincare and CBG. Also non-hemp products – the Ultra range to help with sleep (UltraDream), focus (UltraEdge), fatburning (UltraBurn), and detox & homeostasis (UltraIce) and also Ultra Supplements.

MyMat – Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) device

MyMat – Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) device

MyMat – Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) device, reduces stress and pain symptoms, enhances sports and work performance, improves sleep, meditation, concentration and much more.

MyMat helps at the cellular level by charging magnetic fields surrounding cell membranes so channels open up for better nutrient penetration. Opening the channels also promotes easier waste elimination, efficiently restoring proper cell function. An efficient system of cells creates efficient tissue, which come together to make organs. Restoring proper function from the cellular level brings beneficial long-term effects to all related problems and improves overall well-being. Healthy cell function also diminishes the need for cell replacement, slowing down aging processes and energy waste.

Benefits of the PEMF Technology on the body

• Improving tissue healing
• Reducing pain
• Increasing energy
• Improving sleep
• Making soft tissue more flexible
• Meridian Stimulation
• Reducing blood pressure
• Improving clotting factors
• Reducing the ontake of arthritis
• Immune system stimulation
• Detox
• Helping nerve function
• Improving nutrient absorption
• Reducing muscle tension

I think MyMat is fantastic. The pain on my foot has disappeared completely. I had been suffering from it for a long time. I had it infiltrated with cortisone because only this drug gave me some relieve. I cannot believe how quick and efficient this device works.

Doc. Luis Carlos Mora, Costa Rica

MyMat is a wonderful healing device. As a holistic practitioner I frequently use it on myself, my family, and on clients. The diversity of settings and the ease of use make it both accessible and far-reaching in what it can do. I have found it both incredibly effective for energetic and physical imbalances and I am particularly impressed with how great it is for insomnia and overall foundational energy balancing.

Celina de Leon, San Francisco

I’m happy with the MyMat.  The peripheral neuropathy that was bothering me has improved considerably and I feel generally healthy.  I think the Mat has had an impact on both.  I use it consistently.  I notice that after a workout that gives me muscle soreness that using it makes that pass very quickly.

Carl H, USA

When I bought the MyMat I had been suffering from a pain in my left hip joint which used to flare up mostly at nights and disturbed my sleep.

After only one single 20-minute session I was free from this pain.

My husband has had a chronic problem with his feet, and was equally surprised to find that this program helped him.

Since then I have been experimenting with various settings, and found that “Relaxation” knocked me out; so I use it only at nights, and “Vitality” lives up to its name when used in the mornings.

I never expected something as simple as the MyMat to produce such dramatic results. Thanks to all who have worked so diligently to make this healing method available.
