Health Tips and Surggestions

Most of these  I found through Women’s Health magazine and similar sites, so credit to them.. However I've compiled the key points here for you all as well as some additional Information. 

Part One: General Tips

• Power naps are Great, but for no more than 30 Mins.
• Protect your ears, wear earplugs at concerts, around lawn mowers and similar equipment and at fireworks. 
• Dont waste your money on just tinted sunglasses. They provided nowhere near the amount of UV and Glare protection that Polaroids do. Find a good pair of a polaroids and they'll treat your eyes well. 
• Eat Yogurt.. Why?  It Reduces Breast Cancer, Boosts immunity, and protects against yeast infections. 
• Drink OJ. 100 % Juice varieties. It helps reduce the risk of strokes by 20%. 
• Drink Green tea It is the most potent anti cancer compounds.. EVER. 
• Have more sex. If not just for fun, but also because it leads to fewer colds, and reduced PMS for us girls. 
• Eat a spoon of peanut butter 20 mins before eating meals. It makes you feel fuller for longer and able to absorb Vitamins A, D, E and K. 
• Eat foods high in Iron. It helps reduce fatigue and boosts immunity.
• Eat Salmon, this smart fish boost brain power, prevents depression and coronary artery Disease.
• Try to reduce eating foods with less than 3gms of fibre or more than 10gms of sugar per serving. 
• Don’t eat foods that contain sugar, sucrose and fructose in the first 3 ingredients. ( That’s right the order of ingredients on the back or sides of packages is actually in order the first items being the ones with larger contents )  
• Last of all Floss your Teeth ! 

Part Two - Taking care of your Skin. 

 

#1 Avoid expensive cleanses, My Fav! : Neutrogena Facial Cleansing Bar.. its only $3. 

#2 Use a UV Lip Protectant whenever you’re out.  My Fav: Sunsense Lip balm SPF 30+  or check out these

#3 Use a anti-ager containing retinoid. My Fav: L'Oreal Dermo-Expertise RevitaLift Day Cream is one of the cheaper products out there.

#4 use a shaver with moisture strips, and don’t shave 2 to 3 days before a pedicure. 

#5 cooked Tomatoes reduce UV Sun Damage. 

#6 Have a skin check once a year to get those spots and moles checked. Keep an eye out in particular for ones that have uneven colouring. They should be a smooth brown to be safe. Don’t know where to go for a skin check. Try Solarderm ( Bulk Billing Available).
