Kurt Kitayama, Bob's Watches Brand Ambassador

Bob's Watches, the premier online retailer of luxury timepieces, is thrilled to announce professional golfer Kurt Kitayama as its Brand Ambassador. Kitayama earned his first PGA TOUR victory in March 2023 at the prestigious Arnold Palmer Invitational, a feat that also earned him a spot in the 2023 Masters Tournament at Augusta.  

Kitayama, a distinguished name in the PGA tour, is known for his precision, style, and relentless pursuit of excellence — qualities that align seamlessly with Bob's Watches and its commitment to providing the highest-quality luxury watches to its clientele. The 30-year-old California native turned professional in 2015 upon his graduation from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas with a degree in Finance, where he played on the Academic All-MW team for three consecutive years. Kitayama has enjoyed increasing success since earning his PGA TOUR card in 2021 — with multiple top-10 finishes before his breakthrough win earlier this year. He is currently ranked 20th in the FedEx Cup standings and 24th in the Official World Golf Rankings (OWGR). 

"Kurt Kitayama has distinguished himself as an exceptional golfer on the PGA tour. His dedication, poise, and sportsmanship mirror our values at Bob's Watches. We are proud to sponsor him and look forward to a fruitful partnership," said Paul Altieri, CEO of Bob's Watches.  

With an exceptional collection that includes esteemed brands such as Rolex, Omega, and more, Bob's Watches continues to redefine the luxury timepiece industry. This new partnership with Kitayama amplifies the company's presence within the sports world, illustrating the symbiosis between the precision of golf and the craftsmanship of the watches Bob's offers. "As a professional golfer, my life is all about timing, whether it be on the golf course or making my connection flights to my next global tournament," said Kitayama. "I am thrilled to join with Bob's Watches as we share the values of quality, precision and performance at the highest level." 

In the coming months, customers and fans can expect to see Kitayama representing Bob's Watches at PGA tour events, promotional campaigns, and across various media platforms. The sponsorship with Kitayama kicks off Bob's Watches initiatives into sports marketing as the first online luxury watch retailer involved with professional athletes.

B&W Quality Growers Shares the Nutritional Benefits of Watercress

World's Most Nutrient-Dense Food

B&W Quality Growers Shares the Nutritional Benefits of Watercress
Key Nutrients of Watercress

Watercress Nutrients

Watercress continues to top the charts, packed with over 50 essential nutrients and recognized as the only food to receive a perfect score from ANDI and the CDC. This healthy, flavorful leafy green delivers a potent portion of health benefits. Watercress is a superfood with a distinctive taste that stands out from the muted flavors of other leafy greens. With so many nutrients being recognized in this one leafy green, we want to focus our attention on some of the critical nutrients.

Vitamin A supports the immune system, eye health reproduction, and growth and development. Vitamin A helps your heart, lungs, and other organs work properly. In addition, studies show that people whose diet is high in Vitamin A or beta-carotene can have a lower risk of certain kinds of cancer.

Vitamin C shields the body against free radicals and supports the normal function of blood vessels. Vitamin C has also been shown to aid in the healing of wounds and assist in iron absorption and neurological function. 

B Vitamins are a family of vitamins that uniquely keep our bodies healthy and energized. B Vitamins help convert energy from carbohydrates to fuel, assist fat cells in breaking down amino acids, and aid in transporting oxygen and energy-containing nutrients around the body.

Vitamin K supports blood clotting and is necessary for calcium absorption to strengthen bones. Vitamin K is also shown to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and could be a key component in preventing Alzheimer's disease.

Vitamin E is a nutrient critical to vision, reproduction, and your blood, brain, and skin health. Vitamin E also has antioxidant properties. Antioxidants may protect your cells from free radicals and can play a role in heart disease, cancer, and other diseases.

Zinc is an essential micronutrient for total health and a robust immune system, and it supports keeping infections at bay. Research shows that zinc aids every step of the immune process, from the growth and development of immune cells to their fight against upsetting agents, including bacteria, viruses, and parasites.

Watercress's highly absorbable iron is one of the best ways to incorporate iron and help your body carry oxygen to cells, playing a significant part in the immune system process. The iron in Watercrcress helps maintain your energy levels, impacting how your body feels. In addition, iron builds up your immune cells, allowing them to reach full maturity and optimally perform.

Magnesium is crucial in muscle function, your nervous system, and energy production. Magnesium is also a critical stabilizing nutrient for blood sugar and blood pressure and helps your body rest and recover.

Your body needs calcium to build and maintain strong bones and muscles. Additionally, calcium supports your heart and nervous system.

Potassium helps maintain normal fluid levels inside our cells. Potassium also helps muscles to contract and supports normal blood pressure.

PEITC (Phenethyl isothiocyanate) is a naturally occurring isothiocyanate whose precursor, is gluconasturtiin. PEITC has been shown to have chemo-preventive effects in cell and animal studies of cancer.

Protein is a critical part of the processes to fuel your energy and carry oxygen throughout your body in your blood. In addition, protein helps make antibodies that fight off infections and illnesses, keep cells healthy, and creates new ones.

Amino Acids are the building blocks of protein. Break down food, grow and repair tissue, make hormone and brain chemicals, create an energy source, maintain healthy skin, hair, and nails, build muscle, boost your immune system, and sustain a regular digestive system.

Cheech and Chong Light Up ‘Cannabis-Free’ States With Hemp Derived THC

The iconic duo are going all-in on their Cruise Chews hemp THC gummies and the response is sweet.

Legendary cannabis icons Cheech and Chong are proudly embracing hemp-derived Delta-9 THC with the launch of their new hemp gummy, Cruise Chews. Their mission: to make the incredible benefits of the plant accessible to as many people as possible, promoting safe and responsible consumption.

"The Farm Bill did us a real favor, man," said Tommy Chong. "With regulated cannabis popping up state by state, we're able to reach some people. But with federally legal Delta-9 THC from Hemp, we can get Cruise Chews to EVERYONE who needs them across America. So we're sharing the love, one chew at a time!"

Cheech and Chong's Cruise Chews are revolutionizing the cannabis experience by offering micro-dosed chews that provide unparalleled access to the benefits of hemp. With 3mg of Delta-9 THC in every chew, Cruise Chews promise a fun, relaxing, mellow time. The addition of 33mg of CBD works to dampen the "darker side" of THC some people experience, such as "munchies" or anxious thoughts.

Cruise Chews' precision dosing enables users to dip their toe into the cannabis world with confidence, providing a reliable and controlled experience. By offering a mild and mellow journey, Cruise Chews allow individuals to unlock the potential of CBD and THC without overwhelming effects, ensuring a smooth ride for both the body and mind.

"The benefits of cannabis or hemp should be accessible to everyone, and Cruise Chews is our way of breaking down barriers," said Cheech Marin. "That precise dose of  3mg THC and 33mg CBD in each gummy, helps guarantee a fun, relaxing, mellow time. And you don't end up emptying out your snack cupboard or spend the afternoon wondering why the dog is looking at you like that."

Cheech and Chong's Global Holding Company's commitment to quality is evident in Cruise Chews. These chews are formulated using 100% naturally occurring CBD and THC from hemp, completely free of synthetic chemicals. The Delta-9 THC, derived naturally from non-GMO, U.S. grown hemp plants, undergoes a gentle extraction process. Each batch of hemp is rigorously tested at harvest to guarantee its purity, ensuring the absence of pesticides, heavy metals, and other toxins. 

"The natural part is important to us," adds Tommy Chong, "That's why we won't touch any of these 'new' cannabinoids, like Delta-8 or HHC or any of the others. Nothing against them, but those all have to be synthesized in a lab. They don't grow in nature. We want our products to be as natural and beneficial as the hemp plant itself."

Careful filtration ensures that the valuable terpenes and phytocannabinoids are preserved, resulting in a product of exceptional quality and taste.

What sets Cruise Chews apart, aside from their breakthrough formula, is their accessibility. Thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, Cruise Chews are legal to purchase online and can be shipped directly to customers in a discreet and legal manner through USPS. Experience the relaxing and mellow journey of Cruise Chews by visiting cheechandchong.com, where they are available for purchase now.
