Quod Me Nutrit Me Destruit. Not.

Borba Confections

Your body called.

Seems you haven’t been such a good listener.

Apparently, every time it asks for Borba candies, you file the request under “J,” in a mental folder marked “Junk to Be Avoided at All Costs.”

That’s not a very nice thing to do, considering your body is trying to help you out.

Would you say no to the little voice inside your temple if it asked for acai and green tea? No. What about biogenic vitamin C? Didn’t think so.

Well, those are just some of the healthy ingredients in Borba Skin Balance Confections. The candy is actually good for you. The makers of Nutraceutical Skin Balance Water used crystalline technology to create organic, fat-free gummy bears and jelly beans that deliver vitamins and minerals to your epidermis. The bio-vitamin complex inside each and every nibble supposedly aids the skin in regeneration and helps removes the toxins that are in the way of your clear complexion.

Even though they taste super sweet, they contain no artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors, so Borba cravings are not such a bad sign.

So put them at the top of your file pile.

From now on, they’re going under A for “Awesome.”
