Floriana Abramovich the Founder of Cede Botanic, which is a brand that focuses on carefully selecting ingredients that promote healing, calming, regenerating and anti-inflammatory benefits joins eHealth Radio and the Health News and Skin Care Channels. Cede Botanic will help you on your journey to heal and repair your skin barrier, leaving you with healthy and nourished skin.
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels and guest Floriana Abramovich discuss the following:
Why is skincare so important to health?
What is a “fast acting” product in skincare?
What ingredients can help with inflammation of the skin?
How can internal stressors affect your skin?
What tip would you give to someone who is trying to improve their skin health? 
My name is Floriana Abramovich and I'm the founder of Cede Botanic. I have 3 beautiful daughters, an incredibly supportive husband and 3 dogs. The idea for Cede Botanic was born when I began a journey to heal my inflamed and irritated skin. In my 20’s, I began experiencing cystic acne, redness, inflammation and relied on acne-targeted ingredients to help. After years of experimenting with different solutions, my skin was on a downward spiral causing pigmentation, painful breakouts and a damaged skin barrier. It got so bad, I almost went on a strong drug to see if it would help…but I found out just a few days later that I was pregnant…so I had to turn to something else.
After having my daughters, I realized that my acne was a result of internal stressors, hormone disruptors and a result of harsh stripping ingredients that promoted irritation. Over the years, I switched over to topicals that required a bit of patience and dedication. Reducing the amount of actives and fast acting products…that claimed to help but in fact made things worse. I began my journey to heal my skin. Through changes in diet, trying to reduce stress levels and using nourishing ingredients, my body began to slowly shift. With gentle topical products, I began to point out how much I wished one product had something specific over another. A particular texture was present in another. I found herself on a quest in learning about raw ingredients that were providing my skin relief.
Ingredients like Cupuacu butter, Aloe, adaptogens, Hemp, Turmeric. Seeing, playing, smelling these incredible ingredients in their raw and natural state excited me. It ignited a passion I didn’t know existed. I began to create little jars of magic that I gave to my family. Until one day, my husband turned to me and said, “we have to share your passion with others, you can’t keep this to yourself” and so, uncompromising on quality, partnering with the right chemists that shares similar mindsets, values in sourcing and innovation…my journey is complete.
I created a brand that focuses on carefully selecting ingredients that promote healing, calming, regenerating and anti-inflammatory benefits. Actives used in their most effective way without causing further irritation. Cede Botanic will help you on your journey to heal and repair your skin barrier. Leaving you with healthy and nourished skin.

Andrea Nerep and Chelsea Rose Riggs of Petzbe which is a new social media platform joins eHealth Radio and the Animal Health & Health News Channels. Petzbe combines two things that most Americans love, their pets and social media.
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels and guests Andrea Nerep and Chelsea Rose Riggs discuss the following:
How did you come up with the idea for Petzbe?
Pets are so good for our health and well being. What are some ways in which our pets can help us with our health and wellness?
Through Petzbe we see the world through the voice of our beloved pets. Do you think that this site is sort of therapeutic for people in a world where most social media is political and often negatively emotional for many?
What is the “Vetbe" section of the App?
How does "Lend A Paw" work and what are some of the charities that have benefitted from “Lend A Paw”?
How do you download Petzbe?
Summary: Petzbe is one of the fasted growing social media platforms where the user opens an account on behalf of their beloved pets. All the photos, videos, opinions and messaging on Petzbe come from the perspective of your pets and takes on their persona. Studies have shown that pets can be very beneficial for our own physical and mental health well-being. The brain child of millennial, Andrea Nerep the site is available on your smart phone App Store and it is sure to be the “cutest community platform” available today.
What would your pets say if they could speak? What’s their voice like – sassy, cute, witty, grumpy, playful? PETZBE is the leading social media app connecting pet parents in a community where they share their pets’ lives from the perspective of the pet. PETZBE’S purpose is to provide a positive pet-centric social media experience for pet parents to form meaningful connections with each other and trusted companies in the pet industries.
Realizing that society is obsessed with social media and pets, PETZBE creator, Swedish-born and now New York based Andrea Nerep and her dog, Angus (a Brussels Griffon) partnered with Los Angeles based Chelsea Rose Riggs to create what they believe is “The cutest community on the planet.”
PETZBE is simple to use and easily downloadable on most smart phones when you find it in your smart phone app icon. (Note: Some versions of Android may have trouble downloading the app.) Designed using current state-of-the-art technology, this social media platform, although contributed to by humans, only allows pets to participate. With a soft-launch and ample time to test the PETZBE technology in 2018, PETZBE now has over to 800,000 furry, feathered, scaled, slithery and other diverse and loveable community members.
Just like human social media sites, each PETZBE member page showcases and highlights the life of your individual pet. You can connect with others while featuring your pet’s photos, videos, feelings, and thoughts (that you create for them). If you like another member’s content, give it a “Lick” (Like) or click on their “Sniff” (Follow) and voila, you are now “Sniffing” (Following) them.

Chef Tommaso Iorio who is an Italian Born Chef located in Los Angeles who owns a catering company called Tuscany At Home with his wife Deana and is also a consultant for the Italian Charcuterie line of Rovagnati joins eHealth Radio and the Nutrition and Health News Channels.
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels and guest Chef Tommaso Iorio discuss the following:
Tell me about your background and how you came to be a chef and about your catering company and to work with Rovagnati Charcuterie meats?

Why do you think authentic Italian meats like Rovagnati meats are so appealing to Americans for health, flavor or all of that?
Where can people find and learn more about Rovagnati and your company Tuscany at Home?
Born in Chianti, Tommaso Iorio’s childhood was spent roaming the enchanting landscape of Tuscany. Famed for its lush green hills dotted with vineyards and olive trees, Chianti is also home to some of the finest cuisine in the world. Its rich agricultural and farming heritage, coupled with its production of premium olive oil, has made Chianti the favored source of prime ingredients that are fundamental to Tuscan dishes.
Following a serious accident at the age of five, Tommaso found refuge in his grandmothers’ kitchens in the small town of Panzano, situated atop a hill in the Chianti Classico wine zone. Enveloped by the intoxicating aromas and flavors of Italian cuisine, Tommaso soon found himself immersed in culinary traditions that would kindle the flames of his life-long passion for food.
Tommaso has embraced his passion as an adult, transforming his love for traditional cucina Toscana into a flourishing career. He graduated from the Isituto Technico Agrario di Firenze alle Cascine in Florence, the heart of Tuscany’s vibrant culinary scene, before pursuing various opportunities in the hospitality and wine industry. In 2013, he began working under fellow Panzano Tuscan and world-renowned artisanal butcher Dario Cecchini. A much beloved mentor, Dario taught Tommaso the intricacies of navigating a successful butcher shop, particularly when it comes to providing customers with exceptional service and authentic dining experiences. The two spirited Tuscans can be seen on an episode of Netflix’s Chef’s Table, dedicated to Dario’s illustrious career and the family legacy behind his popular butcher shop in Panzano.
Tommaso met his wife, Deana, while working at Dario’s shop. The couple soon married and moved to Los Angeles. Together, they launched Tuscany at Home, where they offer clients a truly immersive Tuscan dining experience from the comfort of their own homes. Guests watch Tommaso as he prepares food in a traditional Tuscan grill setting, exchanging anecdotes by the fire and sipping sun-kissed wine from the hills of Chianti.
Upholding his grandmothers’ traditions of taking fresh, organic produce and transforming simple ingredients into gourmet dishes, the couple has taken the SoCal private chef scene by storm. Since kickstarting their business over the last two years, they have served more than 250 events across Santa Barbara, Beverly Hills, Bel-Air, Pacific Palisades, Sonoma, and Encino. Their diverse clientele base includes A-list celebrities from both the United States and Italy, and they have auctioned off their services for local charity events.
Tommaso also offers cooking classes, where participants prepare classic Tuscan dishes such as Bistecca Alla Fiorentina, Pappa al Pomodoro Pici Toscani and many more. With Tommaso’s guidance, they acquire a finer appreciation of the scrumptious flavors and time-honored techniques that make Tuscan cuisine one of the most revered in the world.
Tuscany at Home embodies the spirit of its namesake, bringing to life the expression “Mangia bene, Ridi Spesso e Ama Molto.” Eat well, laugh often, love much.
