However, the acne that is very common to most patients is not the serious type; it is mild acne and can be treated using acne soap which is much more affordable.</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-R0d_egeD0rQ/UJXfwrq-8tI/AAAAAAAAFE8/rBBwWz9izFs/s1600-h/aaa%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="aaa" border="0" alt="aaa" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNGgf649dZf8N6sgThkFS-gNenUnsm6Z4sFhrCnWw_q4uSMJfZ0YpP6aX_xBLkXA1g9fNui5R9zNLOChexAIIyZHYnrc1-ew_upzwf9sVErVoADUhG2Mg1Ks0QuwtOsXUdu1oafv46m5Y/?imgmax=800" width="198" height="200" /></a></p> <p>As opposed to over the counter treatments, acne soap offers acne patients a bunch of advantages. It is simple because all an acne patient has to do is wash his or a body with this special soap and the condition will be gone in a very short time. As an acne patient, all you have to do is very simple; throw your regular bathing soap to the dustbin and in its place use the best acne soap. This soap is a natural way to treat your acne condition because it has no side effects as opposed to most over the counter drugs. The soap leaves no chemicals residues on your skin and this particularly helpful for those people who have sensitive skin.</p> <p>There are many people who think that acne soap is confined for the face only. This is a common misconception because this soap is not limited in its use. One can use it on other parts of the body like the chest, legs, back, shoulders, among others. Which other acne treatment covers all that? Unless you go for the most expensive chemical ointments and creams</p> <p>Medical soaps have been in use for quite a long time now. From the beginning, Glycerin was used as one of the most vital ingredient. It purported to cure acne condition through a dying process. Over time, minerals were added to all varieties of the soap to provide nourishment for the skin. Then Aloe Vera was introduced to acne soap and it became an instant hit for its soothing properties. Then there was the addition of perfumes, sodium peroxides, keratolytic agents, all these meant to differentiate soap brands and increase market share.</p> <p>Today, a new and more effective approach has been employed to treating acne condition with soap. Acne soaps are being made using a combination of natural fundamental oils that are known to be antibacterial. Thus they are devised to cure acne completely as it is a bacterial infection. Some of the modern soaps are being manufactured with a new component; the mild natural exfoliates that are very effective in removing dead skin. The new acne soaps are not just home prepared remedies. Their formulas are based on very extensive clinical research. Actually, these soaps provide a perfect combination of natural holistic healing and extensive scientific studies.</p> <p>Acne soaps have pioneered a new natural and effective approach to treating not only acne, but also other skin infections.</p> <p>- <em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Albert_Yuan_Chen">Albert Yuan Chen</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-73140171287605801712012-10-30T20:36:00.001-07:002012-10-30T20:36:43.543-07:00How Serious Are Alcohol Withdrawal Symptoms<p>Alcohol withdrawal symptoms happen when a person who is addicted to alcohol suddenly stops consuming it. Because the alcoholic's body has been dependent to alcohol, immediate withdrawal will give negative side effects to the person's body system. This is the reason why you will see alcoholics starting to shake and stutter once the alcohol content in their body goes down. And in order for them to be normal, they have to consume more alcohol to replace the substance that was lost.</p> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-xInezpo84CQ/UJCcvVoyXuI/AAAAAAAAFAg/AJT1zNco_yY/s1600-h/aac%25255B2%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="aac" border="0" alt="aac" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-7aEBQxT6hFk/UJCcx7cQCEI/AAAAAAAAFAo/DnvnQnpedkA/aac_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="417" height="320" /></a></p> <p>It has always been argued upon if withdrawal symptoms are life threatening or not. This to some degree has led some alcoholics to believe that quitting abruptly might cause severe side effects or even their death. Of course this is a fallacy and it is just being used as an excuse to protect their addiction. Some common symptoms are irritability (mood swings), confusion, depression, diarrhea, fear, hallucinations, headaches, heart palpitations, high blood pressure and insomnia to name a few.</p> <p>The symptoms mentioned above are just a few examples what a person will feel once he quits or abstains from alcohol. The seriousness on these symptoms will generally depend on how long has the person been addicted to alcohol. A person who has been drinking everyday for 5 years can cope much easily compared from a person who has been drinking everyday for the past 10 years. There are many factors to be considered and not all individuals will act the same if alcohol is removed from their body.</p> <p>I have known successful quitters who have been drinking almost all their life but they did not suffer severe side effects when they stopped. For them, their strong determination and commitment strengthened them to endure the symptoms they felt during their quitting period. Although from some articles I have read, some quitters succumb to massive heart attacks while others developed serious diseases that later on caused their eventual death. If this is the case then medical assistance is greatly advised especially if the quitter feels really bad during the first day of quitting.</p> <p>Now these stories should not be a hindrance if you have been drinking for a long period of time and would like to quit. Rather, be positive and never let go of your goal to become a non-alcoholic once more. You may discuss this to your health practitioner which in return will give you some medicine to help you cope up during your withdrawal stage. Don't be shy to open up your vice and addiction, you might need some medical help along the way.</p> <p>Don't lose focus in fighting your addiction to alcohol. Withdrawal symptoms no matter how severe they are will not last and should never be a hindrance in attaining your goal and objective. Try to regain back your respect and freedom and quit drinking today.</p> <p>-<em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Chris_Amorsolo">Chris Amorsolo</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-51958673556141588442012-10-29T06:02:00.001-07:002012-10-29T06:02:43.612-07:00Think Twice Before You Ask Your Doctor To Prescribe Antibiotics<p>Studies by health experts and reputed doctors have revealed that antibiotics cause more harm than good. By this, it does not mean that antibiotics do not do any good at all. They are good only if you take them when you are sick enough to need them. Of course, if you have undergone a surgery, you need antibiotics so as to ensure that no infection develops at the operated spot. Similarly, you need to take them when you have severe infections such as pneumonia or Pharyngitis due to Strep Throat. If you have common colds with cough, sneezing, etc., antibiotics are not necessary at all.</p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9Dr0YGm5aVqZ7sK_LDPcfujomtfFrAO8gL-qvoK7Ttbyw7WxmgKW2UT3zASsHcu-uVgiM0mWcdFPE8f1lERoUL4psS_LkHc_KdBqN012PnuCE4lXJXrK2dxLb3KYBM6qQgEcpkgXMGgw/s1600-h/an%25255B2%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="an" border="0" alt="an" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-McjjqyaQjw0/UI5-b8TlrhI/AAAAAAAAE6c/ps7oFAogYYE/an_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="417" height="320" /></a></p> <p>The problem is that there are many bacteria that are antibiotic-resistant also. They may survive the antibiotics you take and since they are quite strong, they may multiply more quickly than you expect.</p> <p>It is true that the common cold you may be suffering from is viral. But common cold is not bacteria. So, you can not treat it with antibiotics. Further, antibiotics are capable of killing all types of bacteria in your body and this means that they will kill both the bad bacteria and the good bacteria. The gut in your system is full of good bacteria and only with their help, you are able to get your food digested. The number of such good bacteria in your body is more than the number of cells in your body. These good bacteria that are otherwise known as "intestinal flora" bestow immense health benefits on you. If you study about them, you will come to know these intestinal flora can ferment the energy substrates that remain unused, they can train body's immune system, can keep the growth of species that are harmful at bay, can regulate the gut's development, produce vitamins like Biotin, Vitamin K, etc. and also the required hormones that direct the body in the process of proper storage of fats.</p> <p>By taking antibiotics when not needed, you will be killing these good bacteria. Instead, you should ask your doctor the ways to supply your body with probiotics. The best source of probiotics are fermented foods. Even fermented vegetables are good for improving the amount of good bacteria in your gut.</p> <p>Simply put, you should take antibiotics only if you suffer from life-threatening illnesses or if you have undergone a surgery. You should never forget the fact that antibiotics are not capable of killing viruses. If you eat the right types of foods including fermented foods and do your exercises regularly, you may not fall sick at all and so, you may never think of taking antibiotics. Of course, your fermented foods will keep supplying your body with probiotics that may help you to have a good amount of good bacteria in your gut.</p> <p> - <em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Raman_Kuppuswamy">Raman Kuppuswamy</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-65720649197334548612012-10-28T05:34:00.001-07:002012-10-28T05:34:08.183-07:00Ragi–King of Nutrition<p>Ragi, also called finger millet, is a cereal crop. India is a major cultivator of this crop, with the state of Karnataka being the largest producer of ragi in the country. Being a cheap crop, it is widely used by the poorer sections of the society.</p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgki8R4SVmjREE-GrDvuT56Fms1hvtwxPpkhj-OcRd31ZIRo95HCqxoDI3IwOxW_LM-DO0YcDkFoJ5jWHoZbuZbTVxifyaeDpjtaMkWD2t4ERL3vEHv5Lb1FXConf0GZoe2QM6rOwXaU58/s1600-h/rra%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="rra" border="0" alt="rra" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-KhJkdZAMywY/UI0mO3jNwII/AAAAAAAAE0o/96sgORsy28Q/rra_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="418" height="320" /></a></p> <h4><strong>The nutritional benefits of ragi</strong></h4> <p>Nutritionally, when ragi is used as a whole grain, it is higher in protein and minerals in comparison to rice.  Red millet is primarily a source of energy in the diet with each serving of ragi (20g) providing 66kcal. It is also rich in fibre and therefore suitable for people trying to lose weight. Ragi, unlike wheat does not contain gluten (a protein found in wheat), and can be easily consumed by people with wheat intolerance.</p> <p>Ragi is a wonder cereal grain as it has numerous health benefits:</p> <p><strong>Good source of calcium – </strong>Amongst cereals, ragi is particularly rich in calcium, a mineral essential for good bone health. It is a very good source of natural calcium for growing children and older adults, and helps improve bone strengthening.</p> <p><strong>Energy for weight watchers</strong> – Finger millet is a good source of energy for weight watchers, as it contains the amino acid tryptophan that reduces the appetite. Besides, being high in fibre, it provides a feeling of fullness when consumed, and keeps the urge to eat frequently under control.</p> <p><strong>Beats high sugar and cholesterol</strong> – Ragi is beneficial for diabetics as well as those with high cholesterol, as the high fibre content of Ragi makes it a food item with low glycaemic index. That is, it results in slow increase in blood sugar level.</p> <p><em></em></p> <p><strong>Good mix of amino acids – </strong>Due to a good amino acid mix in ragi, it is beneficial for tissue repair, relieving migraine, improving the metabolic rate of the body, optimal muscle coordination, and helps reduce the bad cholesterol (LDL-cholesterol). The amino acids lecithin and methionine eliminate excessive fat from the liver, and in turn reduce the cholesterol content of the body.</p> <p><strong>Source of iron – </strong>Being a good source of iron, it is beneficial of individuals with low haemoglobin level.</p> <p><strong>Excellent baby food – </strong>As ragi is low in fat, and is gluten free, it is easily digested. It is therefore, given as first foods to babies in the form of <em>Ragi Seri</em>. Being a good source of calcium in the diet, it is good for bone development in babies.</p> <p><strong>Also good for new moms – </strong>Besides, it is also given to new mother to improve the haemoglobin levels. Lactating mothers are made to eat green ragi, as it improves milk production.</p> <p>Ragi mudde is a common preparation of ragi eaten with sambar. Being high in fibre, ragi is incorporated in multi-grain biscuits and bread to enhance the fibre content of the product. Ragi can be used to make porridge, upma, cakes, biscuits, dosas and many other preparations.</p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-42496045842968386972012-10-26T20:35:00.001-07:002012-10-26T20:35:58.509-07:00Body Building - Is Your Workout Routine Good For Your Body Type?<p>You can garner many benefits when you follow a solid body building program. A few of those benefits are faster muscle growth and more efficient metabolism. And if you continue following a program, you will surely have a greater physical appearance.</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-BREQGXJi_Ug/UItWlTsNMXI/AAAAAAAAEyY/KxCbKbPij3o/s1600-h/bbod%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="bbod" border="0" alt="bbod" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0XckLbMPHB-2pqpu_ZhRHX81p5qdUIqvCFlUc_sTXq-_XDu4ayXlGPpOW9QvPfaH0Z-n6QGuSeSy4bXfKl-Ib93xVyIFFVd9TB2k_RU0uhV8Rr-iqJtVCneitEsPSjsopM55Tm9FUhvI/?imgmax=800" width="419" height="441" /></a></p> <p>However, for those people who recently started working out, they might think that following a program is difficult. Nevertheless, once they get the hang of it, bulking up might become more effective and easier for them. And for them to get the hang of it, they will need to follow the quick tips below.</p> <p>First, you must set a very realistic goal. Because you must face it, body building takes a lot of time and patience. And many people have given up hope just because they did not see any changes on their first week.</p> <p>The effective way to set a realistic goal is to write down the weight you would want for every three months. This will prevent you from expecting a lot every time that you look into the mirror.</p> <p>In your body building program, you will need to focus different parts of your body on different days of the week. For example, you will train your upper body every Monday and Wednesday, while you will train your lower body every Tuesday and Thursday. You must do this for the parts of your body to get some rest.</p> <p>The exercises you must that you must choose must target two or more muscle groups. If you do that, your muscles will have a solid foundation. In addition, doing that will reduce the time you need when you work out.</p> <p>On the other hand, you should do exercises that only target one muscle group when you need to. The times when you need to do that kind of exercises is when a certain muscle's size or shape is being left behind. For example, if your biceps do not appear proportioned to your shoulder muscles, you must tone and train your biceps alone to fix it.</p> <p>And here is another important tip, make sure that you master first the basic exercises before you move forward on doing the advanced variations of exercises. Always remember that performing the wrong form of your exercises might result into deformed muscle shapes.</p> <p>And that is all about it. Make sure that you incorporate all of those tips in your body building program. Rest assured that once you do that, you would have a great physique in the future.</p> <p>-<em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Jerry_Stanton">Jerry Stanton</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-13377513811908802912012-10-26T20:31:00.001-07:002012-10-26T20:31:41.224-07:00Natural Hair Tips<p>For all my men and women out there who are growing out their natural hair I commend you. Natural Hair IS NOT an easy task nor is it something you can do without knowledge of your hair. When transitioning there are a few things you need to keep in mind along the way. Listed below I have included a few tips and tricks of the trade that you should know.</p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZvdbp1rV17G3UJuDsiEtAq1AVkQsm2CWJ8hOhIfi1HIXZnQmj5dNFe1coV7kvqj2te1C5bZGRlDPRE4fTHhoIpGiLLK1HEQ-Ir29oiyvgeLO7H0fzYMX_BAzuV65SjtWZ6zWXc3vACLY/s1600-h/hhh%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="hhh" border="0" alt="hhh" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCScpJeP9PJiebxG8VyWXiOgec2NI9KtO1XW_sxYjuIzIeVu3kbaPhF4SoPP6o4Yr7eertnd31lPs6XK0E3_4fDCdWcvYvWazmM8YxFuUsRI7gtAUwx5h4iMHLZrjmyDd5kTfBdMnXZFY/?imgmax=800" width="345" height="481" /></a></p> <p><strong>Natural Hair Tips</strong></p> <p><strong>Pre Poo</strong></p> <p>This means to moisturize your hair before you actually shampoo. It doesn't strip your hair from its natural oils or take away moisture. You do not have to use any expensive products cheaper ones usually work just as fine. You can use Olive oil to pre poo or a rinse out conditioner. There is no need to measure out the exact amount you will use because everyone is different. Leave on for about 30 minutes then rinse out.</p> <p><strong>Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse</strong></p> <p>Apple cider vinegar clarifies and restores shine, removes buildup and environmental residue, locks in moisture and helps with detangling natural locks. It also kills the bacteria that cause dandruff. You can use this rinse before and after you shampoo. Massage in one part water and one part Organic Apple Cider into the scalp. (Make sure it is Organic) leave on for 30 minutes then rinse with cold water. Do not use more than once a week. Make sure to use small amounts and DILUTE! Too much of this will damage hair and contribute to dryness.</p> <p><strong>Deep Condition</strong></p> <p>Deep conditioning makes hair shine and allows you to wear natural styles for longer periods of time.</p> <p><strong>Clarify</strong></p> <p>Clarify your hair every 4-6 weeks or when necessary. Many Natural hair products are thick and creamy which can cause build up if used on a daily basis. Build up on the hair can make the hair look dull and cause breakage. A hydrating shampoo is recommended because it adds moisture to your hair.</p> <p><strong>Cold Water Rinse</strong></p> <p>Washing your hair with warm water opens the cuticle of the hair. When doing your final rinse using cold water is preferred, because it closes the cuticle and leaves a smooth and shiny finish.</p> <p><strong>NO Sulfates</strong></p> <p>Sulfates are harsh chemicals that can harm your hair. They can cause damage, breakage and dry hair. STAY AWAY from Shampoos that contain sulfates.</p> <p><strong>Combing</strong></p> <p>Comb through hair thoroughly with conditioners, and not just the outside perimeter of your hair. If you do not comb conditioners thoroughly through your hair, you can cause matting, tangling and knots which many times results in breakage.</p> <p><strong>Hair Styling</strong></p> <p>If you are wearing braids or extensions, avoid tension around the hairline. Unnecessary tugging and pulling around the edges cause breakage and bald spots.</p> <p>- <em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Sierra_C_Jones">Sierra C Jones</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-19221916541624968472012-10-23T20:16:00.001-07:002012-10-23T20:16:53.883-07:00Coping With Incontinence Through Adult Diapers<p>Incontinence is a bladder condition that causes involuntary leakage of urine. It is a common problem among older people. The most common consequence of having this embarrassing condition is to frequently wear dark clothes to hide urine stains. Incidentally, one practical way to cope with incontinence is to use adult diapers.</p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-5qCOADPFEEA/UIddnsQxKjI/AAAAAAAAEos/Lr4tukPP5J8/s1600-h/add%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="add" border="0" alt="add" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-h2zf9DfDFUQ/UIddo9lZdsI/AAAAAAAAEo0/pMfHTaq8YWg/add_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="304" height="233" /></a></p> <p>Many products are now available for incontinence care like drip collectors, pads and underwear, but the most appropriate and beneficial are adult diapers. Adult diapers may be reusable or disposable. The reusable type can be washed and dried for reuse while the disposable variety is thrown away after use. Reusable adult diapers are made up of cotton fibbers which are less absorbent, and come with a coat of plastic pants to prevent leakage. However, frequent use can cause rashes as the skin is directly in contact with ammonia. Disposable adult diapers, on the other hand, are multilayered and with high absorbent quality. Hence, it keeps the skin dry and prevents itching and rashes. The reusable type is more environment-friendly as it causes fewer hazards to the environment with its disposal as compared to the disposable type. The disposable variety, however, is more convenient and not as labor-intensive since no washing and drying is needed, just proper garbage disposal.</p> <p>Both varieties have their advantages and disadvantages, but the important thing is to use one which best suits your lifestyle and budgetary considerations. Reusable diapers are most suitable for those who are staying at home and are not inconvenienced by washing and drying, while disposable adult diapers are best for those who travel a lot. The reusable variety is slightly more expensive than the disposable type, but using it is more cost efficient in the long run because lesser packs are needed in a daily or weekly basis.</p> <p>Incontinence is common among the elderly and may be embarrassing to most sufferers, but it is not the end. It is a medical condition shared by many people, and there are many support groups and message boards available for you to share experiences and ideas on how to cope with it.</p> <p>The adult diaper is not solely for the elderly. Mothers suffering from stress incontinence also use it, as well as many young people with special medical conditions and circumstances. The adult diaper benefits a wide range of people who are seeking comfort and relief from incontinence. Fortunately, it is available for sale even online, so one doesn't have to leave the comforts of their home to purchase it.</p> <p>-<em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Jowett__V._Go">Jowett V.

This method is called Invisalign. <br /><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-GEhafaO-itQ/UH1juZtxogI/AAAAAAAAElA/D3SuPqiF7nI/s1600-h/in6%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="in6" border="0" alt="in6" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv-ewX7DRboCTj8pAStoktn0QP5PtCr5koYiYaHRm-M5V0iA8xElTdenXV9iuKYzOFETcOPQowVqg87jLReqmhQZTmw6dz3FI2PG7y0-kNlahz-ti6XAmtbS_lkdzF87kVQYG8rQ7LbPE/?imgmax=800" width="428" height="253" /></a></p> <p>So what does Invisalign have to offer? First, it grants safety and efficient results which permits you to undergo a process that straightens your teeth without others noticing it. Just like what the usual braces do, you can get tons of benefit from this kind of treatment too. However, it differs from braces because Invasilign is way better and very much hassle-free.</p> <p>For those people who are opting to have their teeth straightened via this type of orthodontic treatment, let's take a look at its benefits, how it works and other important details.</p> <p>How does Invisalign work?</p> <p>Basically, it uses a 3D computer imaging system that illustrates the full treatment that the patient needs, beginning with the primary placing of the teeth towards the best position possible. It is made up of aligners that make the teeth move incrementally in about 2weeks. After that time period, a replacement of the aligner is being done until the whole series is finished and the final outcome is accomplished.</p> <p>Another great feature about it is that the aligners look almost invisible. The word Invisalign actually came from the term invisible aligners that are made up of well-built, plain medical grade plastic. These aligners are custom-made for every individual.</p> <p>Advantages</p> <p>One of the most apparent benefits of this dental treatment has something to do with cosmetic. Aligners are entirely translucent which make it hard to identify compared to the regular wiry braces. This thing is very much favorable especially for the adults who want to have their teeth straightened without worrying about the appearance of the good old metal braces which are common to young kids and adolescents. Additionally, invisalignis known to bring more comfort because this dental device can be removed and you can eat your meal without any inconvenience.</p> <p>Costing</p> <p>The price usually varies, depending on the fee that is required by your dentist or orthodontist. The price is normally based upon the intricacy of the treatment and it's time duration.</p> <p>Treatment</p> <p>The process begins when the dentist or orthodontist conducts dental impressions, taking x-rays and photographic images of the teeth. A CT scan is being used in this method. Attachments, also termed as buttons,are occasionally connected to teeth that need to be moved more than the other one.</p> <p>Every time there is a replacement of new aligner, there may be a momentary pain while the teeth change to their new placing. This is part of the normal process which is also a healthy sign that the treatment is really working.</p> <p>Invisalign can be utilized to treat a wide range of dental problems particularly with exceedingly crowded teeth, distant teeth, even cross bite, overbite and under bite. With these invisible aligners, healthy and beautiful smile is always possible!</p> <p>- <em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Kathy_Frazar">Kathy Frazar</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-35674167685740709792012-10-16T06:34:00.001-07:002012-10-16T06:34:23.206-07:00Kali Phos–The best remedy for depression & Sleeplessness<p><strong>Kali Phos is a nerve nutrient.</strong> <br />Nervous exhaustion, nervous indigestion, nervous headaches, skin problems brought on by anxiety, and the many other ailments that can be associated with stress are all indications that may be relieved by Kali Phos.  Symptoms are generally worse from mental & physical exertion and cold, and better with rest and warmth.</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-9Fr0er107qo/UH1iU34tbrI/AAAAAAAAEkw/tuX6wl_c410/s1600-h/kali%25255B4%25255D.png"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="kali" border="0" alt="kali" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-4JEeiq-BnT8/UH1iW-KRFcI/AAAAAAAAEk4/NzBqDQLXgok/kali_thumb%25255B2%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="229" height="350" /></a> <br /><strong>Indications:</strong> <br /><strong>Simple Nervous Tension:</strong>  Kali Phos is the principal nerve tissue remedy; the nerve nutrient and revitaliser which should be given in ailments of nervous character.  It is the remedy when the nerves are said to be "on edge."  <br /><strong>Occasional Sleeplessness:</strong>  Kali Phos is the principle remedy relief of symptoms of occasional sleeplessness from nervous causes or due to overexcitement. </p> <p>One of the greatest nerve remedies. <i>Prostration</i>.

It is one of the oldest cultivated plants. They are native to tropical South and Southeast Asia, and are likely to have been first domesticated in Papua New Guinea. Today, they are cultivated throughout the tropics. They are grown in at least 107 countries, primarily for their fruit, and to a lesser extent to make fiber, banana wine and as ornamental plants. Its fruits, rich in starch, grow in clusters hanging from the top of the plant. They come in a variety of sizes and colors when ripe, including yellow, purple, and red.</p> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-J27U6O9shaQ/UHgLpcDeXzI/AAAAAAAAEWk/C9Rplek8wvQ/s1600-h/red%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="red" border="0" alt="red" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-4dmbtmqP2oc/UHgLsACYqOI/AAAAAAAAEWs/Q5jkSkNkKng/red_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="368" height="299" /></a></p> <p>Because of their impressive potassium content, bananas are highly recommended by doctors for patients whose potassium is low. One large banana, about 9 inches in length, packs 602 mg of potassium and only carries 140 calories. That same large banana even has 2 grams of protein and 4 grams of fiber. No wonder the banana was considered an important food to boost the health of malnourished children! Those reducing sodium in their diets can't go wrong with a banana with its mere 2 mgs of sodium. For the carbohydrate counters there are 36 grams of carbs in a large banana.</p> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/--blOBsnnNv8/UHgLu-OgSAI/AAAAAAAAEW0/d2vfOh3WSmo/s1600-h/yel%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="yel" border="0" alt="yel" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-EO6mji_I1qo/UHgLwO_KtzI/AAAAAAAAEW8/MvUwJObXLeY/yel_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="415" height="315" /></a> <br />Vitamins and minerals are abundant in the banana, offering 123 I.U. of vitamin A for the large size. A full range of B vitamins are present with .07 mg of Thiamine, .15 mg of Riboflavin, .82 mg Niacin, .88 mg vitamin B6, and 29 mcg of Folic Acid. There are even 13.8 mg of vitamin C. On the mineral scale Calcium counts in at 9.2 mg, Magnesium 44.1 mg, with trace amounts of iron and zinc.</p> <p>Putting all of the nutritional figures together clearly shows the banana is among the healthiest of fruits. The plantain, when cooked, rates slightly higher on the nutritional scale in vitamins and minerals but similar to the banana in protein and fiber content.</p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-32636544046764393422012-10-10T02:45:00.001-07:002012-10-10T02:45:43.580-07:005 Most Common Workout Mistakes<p>Working out is one of the best things you can do for your body. You can lose weight, increase your flexibility, strength, and stamina, and do wonders for your overall wellbeing. However, if you're not mindful of the things you do, you might end up doing more harm than good to your body.</p> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-KUaWpJnMn68/UHVDvM2mv_I/AAAAAAAAEP4/WUdrSVZhk6s/s1600-h/rre%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="rre" border="0" alt="rre" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-AWX6ip1AxVM/UHVDxFO4yJI/AAAAAAAAEQA/x2iKabNWWhM/rre_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="423" height="301" /></a></p> <p>You need to make educated choices when it comes to fitness. You want to be able to reap all the benefits and stay away from unwanted consequences. Personal Trainers Singapore can help you select the right options and make sure that you get fit and healthy the correct way.</p> <p>Listed below are the 5 most common workout mistakes:</p> <p>1. Not eating properly <br />Hopping on the latest diet craze might seem like a tempting option when you're trying to lose weight. Don't do it. Going on the latest faddish diet will rob your body of necessary nutrients, thus causing you to feel wearier and hungrier than normal.</p> <p>2. Focusing too much on one aspect <br />If you want washboard abs, it doesn't mean that you can achieve them by performing only crunches every single day. You need to first lose excess weight and fat and cardiovascular exercises, such as running and swimming, are the best. Specific muscle toning can be incorporated a few times in your weekly routine, but make sure proper execution is followed to avoid injury.</p> <p>3. Not getting enough rest <br />Your body needs enough time to recover and replenish its energy in order to perform at its optimum level day after day. Pulling an all-nighter and rigorously working out the following day will increase the chances of possibly harming your body. You want to build your body, not destroy it. Make sure you give yourself adequate time for sleep and relaxation.</p> <p>4. Wanting to do it all at once <br />When you hit the gym, you can be barraged with overwhelming gym equipment choices. You might think that using all of them and not stopping until you are exhausted is the fastest way to achieve your fitness goals, but it is not. You need to learn the proper usage of the equipment to avoid harm and get ideal results.</p> <p>5. Not asking for help <br />Getting help is priceless, especially when you are trying to achieve your goal in fitness. Whether it is regarding the use of gym equipment or proper execution of exercises, having someone you can rely on will definitely increase your productivity.</p> <p>- <em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Bruce_Choy_Marjorie">Bruce Choy Marjorie</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-4490675742074860142012-10-07T01:28:00.001-07:002012-10-07T01:28:45.733-07:00Healthy Eating: The Surprising Benefits of Calcium<p>Calcium is essential for your overall health, but most people are not getting enough. Increasing calcium intake can be difficult, especially for those who do not like or do not tolerate dairy products. This natural compound is lost daily through skin, hair, nails, urine, and sweat. If the calcium lost is not replaced, your body will take it from the bones. Researchers have found that calcium plays a key role in muscle contraction, blood clotting, bone and tooth formation, and nerve impulse transmission. The body also needs calcium to produce hormones and enzymes.</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-zXyC4UuR2lg/UHE9MKmscnI/AAAAAAAAEDg/1aWI7AoKZlg/s1600-h/cal%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="cal" border="0" alt="cal" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-ErKOLC2Nho0/UHE9Noy2LeI/AAAAAAAAEDo/dCnJ0eMc8K4/cal_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="402" height="436" /></a></p> <p>What Is Calcium?</p> <p>The most abundant mineral in the human body is required for nerve transmission, muscle function, hormonal secretion, vascular contraction and other critical metabolic functions. This mineral is found in a wide range of foods, from vegetables and fruits to fish and meat. Over 99 percent of calcium is stored in teeth and bones. The remaining one percent is found in muscles, blood, and interstitial fluid.</p> <p>In order to absorb enough calcium, the human body needs vitamin D, which can be found in eggs, liver, fatty fish, fortified milk, butter, and sunflower seeds. For this reason most dietary supplements containing calcium are fortified with vitamin D. The best way to get calcium is from food.</p> <p>Calcium Health Benefits</p> <p>Adequate amounts of this mineral slow the rate of bone loss that naturally occurs with age and help build optimum bone mass during childhood. It's not only your bones that benefit from calcium. Research shows that this natural compound lowers blood pressure, supports weight loss, reduces symptoms of premenstrual syndrome, and promotes strong bones. Individuals who eat foods rich calcium face a lower risk of colon cancer.</p> <p>This mineral helps in maintaining an optimum body weight in both men and women. It also protects your heart muscles, prevents kidney stones, and helps maintain a healthy pH level. For overweight or obese people, three or more servings of dairy products a day will boost the metabolism and accelerate weight loss. Studies suggest that regular consumption of foods rich in calcium leads to a decreased risk of insulin resistance and diabetes.</p> <p>Sources of Calcium</p> <p>Calcium is widely available in green leafy vegetables, dairy products, beans, greens broccoli, orange juice, kale, and Swiss chard. It can also be found in some types of fish, including sardines and salmon. Cheese, milk, and yogurt are rich in calcium. For children, low fat or fat free ice cream are calcium rich treats. If this mineral can not be obtained through diet, calcium supplements are a viable option.</p> <p>Healthy eating is important for the well-being of your mind and body. Eating foods rich in calcium, iron, magnesium, fatty acids and other essential nutrients is the key to proper health.</p> <p>- <em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Dominic_H_Milner">Dominic H Milner</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-38871510743465437012012-10-07T01:24:00.001-07:002012-10-07T01:24:51.153-07:00Why Peach Juice Can Give You Diarrhea<p>Peaches are undoubtedly one of the most sumptuous fruits in the whole entire word. They ooze flavor and have a soft, and delicate texture that can send your taste buds wild. One amazing thing that derives from this delicious fruit is peach juice. This is one of the most popular fruit juices around, behind the obvious candidates such as apple, orange and cranberry juices. Like the fruit itself, peach juice has a wealth of nutritional benefits, that make it well worth considering when it comes to making healthy dietary choices. However, one thing small drawback that can often cause a slight amount of bother is that peach juice can cause diarrhea.</p> <p><b><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVXaqzAEEigGumd0O4AIc_z3UjpgOP1nnKOA-cp-s8CdCjLRGZOaTZohmhyphenhyphenuR9i3E-pfjqLEaxtsfvjgQ0v_OSQh1B-ZWb9D4xGKdUiMXA4LZVQByzN_Oz8iJFL2AlnDoAM7FdZDZlTk0/s1600-h/peach%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="peach" border="0" alt="peach" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-0BUbCRA_4yw/UHE8UFTbUWI/AAAAAAAAEDY/MLi_EY1-5tQ/peach_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="429" height="329" /></a></b></p> <p><b>Why do fruit juices cause diarrhea?</b></p> <p>Peach juice is not alone in causing what is a notoriously frustrating condition, in fact many fruit juices if drank in larger quantities can change the dynamics of your stools. The reason for this is due to something that fruit juices contain, the culprit's name being sorbitol.</p> <p>So what is sorbitol?</p> <p>Sorbitol is a sugar that the body cannot digest. If you are drinking a lot of peach juice, or even other fruit juices such as apple and prune juice, your body will react by trying to dilute the sugar. This is endeavored by using water from the bloodstream and sending it to the intestine. This extra water is therefore responsible for changing the constitution of the stools, making them looser.</p> <p>This is the same for people of all ages, however with babies the problem may be more troublesome as their bodies are so small. May this be a warning to anyone who feeds their infants a lot of fruit juice, the consequences could be messy!</p> <p><b>Peach juice nutritional benefits</b></p> <p>It you are an adult who likes to drink peach juice, don't let this put you off, as this is really only likely to occur if you drink excessive amounts. I am not trying to put you off drinking fruit juices, quite to the contrary as they are loaded with the nutrients that your body needs. They are a much better alternative to other soft drinks such as fizzy pop.</p> <p>Just to be clear here I will highlight some of the peach juice benefits that are well worth taking note of.</p> <p>* Peach juice is loaded with vitamin C, in fact from a regular 500 g serving of peach juice you can get over a fifth of the total vitamin C needed in an entire day.</p> <p>* You get a very healthy amount of dietary fiber from peach juice, from a 500 g serving you can obtain around 14% of the total fiber your diet requires in a day.</p> <p>* You can get just over 10% of the total vitamin A needed in a day with a 500 g cup of peach juice.</p> <p><b>One drawback - Calories</b></p> <p>Calories are one thing that we all look out for in our diet, and due to the sugar that is found in peach juice, it is something that is not exactly low in them. There are approximately 330 calories in a 500 g serving of peach juice. This is quite a lot considering if you were to go for the fruit on it's own, you would be eating considerably less. In a medium sized peach weighing around 100 g there are just 38 calories.</p> <p>In comparison to other fruits, and more so to the majority of foods we all include in our diets, the calories found in peaches are hardly anything to worry even the most avid calorie counter.</p> <p>There is always an alternative of course, and that could be to dilute the juice with water. Of course it is not going to reduce the calories in the peach juice, but making a 500 g serving one part water and one part peach is going to halve the calories in that serving.</p> <p><b>More information</b></p> <p>So there you have it, drinking a lot of fruit juices can cause an upset stomach and diarrhea due to the sorbitol that they contain. One thing to bear in mind is that it is actually from the fruit itself, not some sort of added ingredient when making a fruit juice. However, due to the concentrate of the fruit that goes into making the juice, it is more likely to cause you problems than just by eating a portion of the fruit itself.</p> <p>Eating the fruit itself is not only going to reduce the chances of an upset stomach, but is also going to ensure you take on less calories. So perhaps a peach and a glass of water could be less problematic than a nice refreshing glass of peach juice. The decision is yours and down to how your body reacts to the juice, and also how concerned you are as to peach calories, or those found in the juice.</p> <p>-<em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Steve_D_Wright">Steve D Wright</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-3240511400719120562012-10-07T01:21:00.001-07:002012-10-07T01:21:54.137-07:00Top 5 Little-Known Remedies for Abdominal Bloating<p>If your stomach feels full and tight all the time, and you also experience the present of gas in your stomach, then most probably you are suffering from abdominal bloating (or distension)! Abdominal bloating can be caused by a number of factors, notably, constipation, overeating, lactose intolerance, difficulty in passing bowels; irritable bowel syndrome, etc. In this article I will discuss some of the most effective remedies for stomach bloating!</p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuV4M-3OCQO0lknjuulsWgsPXLIUL301z9VQ4lZ2iTgrD6-ufXlUtVhFM5gwTL3zjZ-NjFFXNvbP_G0KY_eBUW2THmzR6BDo_bwKIAIUavnN91y35HanmKo6Qmkn4ykuBeLeH_tVstJoA/s1600-h/bloat%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="bloat" border="0" alt="bloat" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-IRGmJnFVpbA/UHE7n92BMRI/AAAAAAAAEDI/AsCflX5-Zh0/bloat_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="305" height="465" /></a></p> <p>Those who suffer from bloating go through terrible stomach pains after eating a decent-sized meal. As a matter of fact, usually it is women who suffer more from bloating and stomach pain than men; a lot of women attribute this to their menstrual cycles.</p> <p>So can you do in order to get immediate relief from abdominal bloating?</p> <p>1. <strong>Pass Gas</strong>: I admit that this is not something you can do in public, but let us say that you are suffering from a severe stomach pain while working in your office, in which case, you could take a short break, go to the restroom, and pass gas there. Personally, I have achieved great relief from this "bad" habit!</p> <p>2. <strong>Take Probiotics</strong>: Bloating is often the result of the destruction of good bacteria by antibiotics. Antibiotics are administered to kill the "bad" bacteria, but a lot of 'friendly' bacteria too get killed in the process; since these 'friendly' bacteria are responsible for the proper digestion of food in our body, it is no wonder that in their absence, our digestive system gets messy, and we suffer from an increased amount of acidity and pain in your stomach. While there are a lot of probiotic supplements available over-the-counter, I personally prefer the good old natural yogurt!</p> <p>3. <strong>Acupuncture</strong>: You would probably think that I am crazy; after all, acupuncture would be the last thing one would undergo for stomach pain relief - who in their right mind wants to bear the additional pain of needles, right? RELAX! The days of the 'traditional method' of acupuncture are over! You can now enjoy all the benefits of acupuncture right at home, thanks to the invention of Energy Point Stimulators, a series of tiny handheld devices that let one undergo acupuncture right within the comfort of their home - without the use of dangerous needles or having to go through a twelve-week long treatment!</p> <p>Traditionally, acupuncture has been used for treating different kinds of stomach problems; even to this day, people undergo acupuncture in order to relieve themselves of belly bloating, abdominal bloating, distention, etc.</p> <p>4. <strong>Go on a Raw-food Diet</strong>: Believe it or not, one of the root causes behind a bloated stomach is the fact that we cook our food, instead of eating it raw. Unlike raw food which is digested very easily by our body, cooked food is not only devoid of all the essential nutrients and enzymes required by the body, they also take a long time to digest. When your digestion process gets slow, the process of formation and passing of bowels becomes slower (with a raw food diet, not only you would be able to pass bowels faster, your bowels should also be devoid of the typical foul odor). Future bowel absorption would take an even longer time, making the condition worse for you!</p> <p>If you are a non-vegetarian, it is no wonder that you suffer from stomach bloating; after all, meat is one of the hardest things to digest, and cooked meat takes even longer to digest!</p> <p>I know that the mention of 'raw food' makes you yuck; however, I am not asking you to go "raw" permanently! How about following the raw food diet for just a month? If you don't feel like it, you can always go back to your regular meal (deep inside my heart, I know that you will be relieved from your abdominal problems to such an extent that you would refuse to eat anything other than raw food)!</p> <p>The second thing you can do, especially if your abdominal bloating is often followed by gas and rumbling in stomach, is to get help from homeopathy. Lycopodium is one of the medicines frequently recommended for relief from bloating! As a matter of fact, Lycopodium works great even for those who have very large appetites (so that they wake up in the middle of their sleep and start binge-eating) or extremely small appetites (those who suffer from irritable bowel syndrome no matter how little they eat)!</p> <p>5. <strong>Herbal Tea</strong>: Many people believe that flatulence is characterized by breaking the wind or 'farting' as it is most commonly called. First off, you cannot fart in public without being the butt of others' jokes (which is why I suggested doing it in an isolated area); secondly, even if you fart or go to the toilet frequently, you can still be unable to get rid of the non-stop, irritating abdominal pain that keep increasing at every intake of food you have and seems to be immune to almost any kind of remedy you throw at it! In fact, abdominal pain can be so distressful that it may be impossible for you to eat or even sleep properly!</p> <p>One remedy that works wonders for temporary relief from stomach pain is a cup of warm, herbal tea. The warmth of the tea offers you a soothing and comfortable feeling, something that you can also achieve by compressing warm water around the 'painful' area of your stomach!</p> <p>- <em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Dick_Domes">Dick Domes</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-33226392977157813212012-10-07T01:17:00.001-07:002012-10-07T01:17:51.077-07:00Does Eating Oatmeal Benefit Your Health?<p>Simply put, oatmeal is awesome!</p> <p>As long as you know which type to buy.</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-1hF_ZK3Z3xE/UHE6nzlVNZI/AAAAAAAAECw/jE31fem5v9I/s1600-h/oats%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="oats" border="0" alt="oats" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgffHmwHCnRJgKwBV_tYAE-P2lKD8POMRzUW8TBhxsCxxsBw3vGTwLH9KQizMTLisvMkejRabK_fqMa-hXQAKjtCq1hqaLgEh2HtnU7E81Zziqree0wgoYd6F0QUv7r4x7BctT6NBxXXYo/?imgmax=800" width="427" height="434" /></a></p> <p>That's because not all brands of oatmeal are created equal, and many of the ones you can buy in your store will be jam-packed with sugar. This isn't necessarily bad, however if you are diabetic or if your body does not respond well to insulin spikes, you should avoid any type of oatmeal that are advertised as containing "brown sugar", "raspberry sauce", "apple cinnamon", or anything else that sounds sweet.</p> <p>The oatmeal which will benefit your health the most are the old-fashioned "rough" type - not the "instant" oatmeal which you just pour some hot water over and get yourself a delicious sweet dish in a few seconds. Just go for the plain oatmeal, and if you need to add some extra taste to it, you can always do so in your own kitchen - berries, nuts and dried fruit are all great additions that I personally enjoy. As long as we are on the subject of taste, you might want to cook your oatmeal in low-fat milk instead of water - the result will be a far creamier dish that will be more pleasant to your senses, I guarantee it.</p> <p>As far as health benefits go, oatmeal has an extremely high fiber content - roughly 7 grams per 1/3 of a cup! In case you aren't sure - yes, that's a lot. The reason you want to have this much fiber in your diet is because it makes you feel full for longer, and also does wonders for your entire digestive tract; this in turn results in better absorption of vitamins and micronutrients from everything else you eat, leading to an avalanche of additional non-direct benefits.</p> <p>You'll also like oatmeal for it's high complex carbohydrates content. When I say "complex", I mean that they take a longer time to be digested, which again makes you feel satiated for longer, and also reduces insulin spikes which are common for simple carbs. As I said before, this will be of particular interest to diabetics, and everyone who finds themselves sleepy or tired an hour or two after eating simple carbs (such as sugar for example).</p> <p>If you are gluten intolerant or suffer from celiac disease, you'll be happy to know that oatmeal does not contain many of the proteins which cause reactions in gluten-sensitive people. However, you should make sure to check the label anyway, as certain brands of oatmeal may contain trace amounts of whey. Though if you have no gluten intolerance, then this is a moot point for you.</p> <p>Oatmeal will also likely benefit your heart, due to the plant lignans they contain, which your intestinal flora will convert into mammalian lignans. Some of these are suspected to have positive effects on our cardiovascular system and may also protect you against certain types of cancer, although this is still up for debate.</p> <p>You will also get a large dose of multivitamins and minerals from even the smallest serving of oatmeal. They are particularly rich in thiamin and iron, which will do wonders for your heart, as well as help your body convert carbohydrates into energy more readily.</p> <p>Still wondering whether you should go for it?</p> <p>-<em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Jehad_Nazzal">Jehad Nazzal</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-32507693308461827992012-10-07T01:14:00.001-07:002012-10-07T01:14:07.090-07:00Improving Your Memory - How to Memorize Things for an Exam<p>Getting a strong memory always added benefits us in every way in our life.

If you do exercise daily, your brain tissue are served with more oxygen along with the other cells of your body. It simply reduces the chances of memory disorder or memory loss. This is a way to keep it healthy. But there is another way you can work out your brain and that is playing chess. This is actually a very good and a common way of brain workout.

It may come with expertise and some mental efforts. It will undoubtedly help if you try to discover some new languages or play any instrument. however, it won't help if you do something that you are good at, and you do that. Try to do something that you are not familiar with, and take you out of comfort zone.</p> <p>In today's life, we are so busy that we don't get enough time to sleep. But it is totally wrong. Overtime working is a big reason of dull memory, because less sleep is a reason of drained brain tissue. And if we don't have the expected sleeping time, our brain cell doesn't work appropriately. It is researched and proved that less sleep is a cause of poor overall performance and also reduces the ability of solving any problems quickly. Our brain performs at the stage when we are sleeping.</p> <p>Stress is one of the biggest enemies of memory. Stress destroys brain tissues. There is a region in our brain called hippocampus. It aids to remove the old memories n exchange it new ones. chronic stress damages this region. So it causes bad memory power.</p> <p>When it comes to nourishment, your brain also needs some healthy foods as your body. having right diet really assists. Polyphenols can be found in green tea. It is a strong antioxidant that protects your brain from free radicals which is a cause of damaged brain tissues. possessing inexperienced tea regularly enhances memory. it also slows getting older of your brain. eating more many fruits serves more antioxidants to your brain. green vegetables are also helpful in this case. possessing a good amount of complex carbohydrates is good for your brain.</p> <p>These are just some tips or tricks to enhance your memory. right after all a healthy brain is all we need to have a good life.</p> <p><em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Glen_M_Gould">Glen M Gould</a></em></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-36559712589732378432012-10-05T20:13:00.001-07:002012-10-05T20:14:33.056-07:00Kegel Exercise For Better Sex<h6>Terrance Lile (Uncle Terry)-</h6> <p>Do you get winded by simply walking up a flight of stairs? Are you straining to pick up a gallon of milk? Do you crawl into bed shortly after arriving home from work? If so, you shouldn't expect to have the energy for a sexual marathon. But with proper exercise, one can get on the right track to feeling young and energetic in bed again.</p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgo7sdNEziv9t73VUB47hsqzKYVykErH5NNqAKLD7CFiu3KYwuAonBnDT2_SCOXHkI0PiopVw1zSzi9YspNKG6Fk4Cug2BGEehMgsesZ19S6fCO8q3XcoIeSedyiZe8KRXCNqKQ8eWaQPo/s1600-h/kre%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="kre" border="0" alt="kre" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2AA_CM9GXJITe3TVbCyBfYWn7gi47rFNH91wUnKDdkhUWqggN3eOtoshyOwpdVdRVNToSecmzfolm3eT30RyjApvnNB92yNwbp6xIRewZJE5zwPrQFlNGgXZBbHVnRr-9rvM_EbSqwwM/?imgmax=800" width="386" height="386" /></a> <br />At Ask UncleTerry.com we regularly have people emailing us - asking how they can improve their sexual stamina, get better aroused, last longer in bed and enjoy better enjoy sex. One of the best ways to achieve all of these desires and a whole lot more is exercise. Unless you're a cold fish, there's a great deal of body movement during sex. Together as a couple, go running or bike riding. This is a great way to spend quality time together while building physical endurance. Having healthier arteries will allow the blood to flow better to the genitals. With a healthier blood flow, men will develop a harder erection, and women will be more easily aroused.</p> <p> <br />With a conditioned body, one is able to last longer in bed and have sex numerous times. After climaxing once, break the habit of falling asleep afterward. Pleasure your mate for a while, instead. When the blood gets flowing again, "round two" can commence. This will keep both of you interested, and make your mate go wild with anticipation during intermission. <br />With endless positions to choose from during intercourse such as those found at AskUncleTerry.com, don't stick to the same routine. If you work your upper body, it will be easier to grab your mate with authority and try a new position. Different positions will keep the spark alive. </p> <p>Use each muscle. Guys, this doesn't mean you should just lay back and let the woman do all the work. You need to be engaged, as well. Sexual energy will increase exponentially if both bodies thrust towards one another. Exercising your legs, arms and chest is great, but working the hidden muscles will help build stamina, as well.</p> <p> <br />Kegel exercises work for both men, and women. This exercise will thoroughly help each partner to gain control of his or her body. To do Kegel exercises, participants must tighten the muscle as if they are holding back urine. This is not about squeezing your stomach, or rear end. Next time you are going the bathroom, try holding back the stream. This should give you a feel of where that muscle is. Once you have found it, try working the muscle with reps of about 10 to 30 times. Then try repeating this at least 50 times a day. Once you are able to do 50, step it up to 30 reps at 200 times a day.</p> <p> It may seem like a lot of work, but you can do these while reading the paper or typing on the computer. If you are faithful to the routine, you should feel results within a month. A woman who does Kegel exercises can control and tighten her vagina. To help stimulate the male, she can use this muscle to get a firmer grab on the penis. Men who are going to climax should tighten their pubococcygeal (PC) muscle and release as desired. This will help them develop a skill to control ejaculation. Every time you hold back an orgasm, try to last a little longer than the previous one. Remember, practice makes perfect and the ladies love a man who can hold his own.</p> <p> <br />Climb the stairs to your bedroom without feeling exhausted. Pick up that gallon of milk after a glorious morning of sex. After work, you should plan on another sexual marathon. Sex is a great stress reliever and an amazing way to show the teamwork of a couple. Although exercising may seem hard at times, your body and your spouse will thank you.</p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-246506947344122452012-10-05T04:41:00.001-07:002012-10-05T04:41:32.371-07:00PMS And Back Pain<h6>by: Jesse Cannone, CFT, CPRS</h6> <p>It's no secret that many women suffer through their monthly periods, experiencing cramps, bloating, and lower back pain, to name just a few. But a large number of them estimated at anywhere from 30 to 90 percent also endure the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Most women feel some discomfort before their periods. But if you have PMS, you may feel so anxious, depressed, or uncomfortable that you can't cope at home or at work. <br /><b><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNzTkRcq2FBX5FC-F7PjS056qjd-ah7Lc9F8Lv8ykPlXIp5wHIqahXZrwxbZEEBpnqlXHTKxj526RWsxrQ232X_NVzOYSzr3ATMemP556WUK-3CwL2j_tP63TPHa3Uud4UHvhDjDVSCOk/s1600-h/112%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="112" border="0" alt="112" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-Y98mJtutpzc/UG7HaL-U61I/AAAAAAAAD_Q/88FK0jGCQpk/112_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="390" height="332" /></a></b></p> <p><b>What causes PMS?</b> <br />No one know for sure what causes PMS or why some months are worse than others, but PMS is often linked to the changes in hormone levels that happen during a woman's menstrual cycle. PMS is not caused by stress or psychological problems, though these may make the symptoms worse. <br />"We probably don't get nearly enough magnesium from out diet," says Dr. Carolyn Dean, who specializes in managing and healing commonly misdiagnosed and chronic conditions such as hormone imbalance, and mood swings. "The Recommended Daily Allowance for magnesium is 350-400 milligrams (mg) per day, but for optimal health you may need twice as much."</p> <p> <br />Dean, who serves on the medical advisory board of the Healthy Back Institute, suggests taking magnesium supplements to prevent or ease PMS symptoms, including back pain due to water retention. She recommends magnesium citrate and taurate, as well as spraying on magnesium oil that is absorbed through your skin. <br />Some researchers have found that calcium levels are lower in women with PMS and that calcium supplementation may reduce the severity of symptoms. One study, for instance, reported that 300 mg of calcium carbonate four times a day significantly reduced bloating, depression, pain, and mood swings.</p> <p> <br /><b>How is PMS diagnosed?</b> <br />There is no single test to diagnose PMS, but because thyroid disease is common in women of childbearing age, and because some of the symptoms of PMS such as weight gain are similar to symptoms of thyroid disease, your doctor may do a thyroid test. This can help rule out a thyroid problem as the cause of your symptoms. Often, a doctor will suggest that you keep a diary to track your symptoms for a few months.</p> <p> <br /><b>How is PMS usually treated?</b> <br />Medicines that are commonly prescribed include diuretics to help the body rid itself of extra sodium and fluid, which can ease bloating, weight gain, breast pain, abdominal pain, and back pain. Antidepressants can help with the severe irritability, depression, and anxiety that some women have with PMS. Doctors often prescribe birth control pills to help reduce some PMS symptoms by evening out hormone levels during your cycle. <br />Experts also suggest making some simple diet and lifestyle changes. These include eating more complex carbohydrates (such as whole grain breads, pasta and cereals), more fiber and protein, and more foods rich in potassium (such as fish, beans, and broccoli). Other things you can do: cut back on sugar and fat; avoid iodine salt (to reduce bloating and fluid retention) try sea salts, eliminate or cut back on caffeine and alcohol, get at least eight hours of sleep each night, and get regular aerobic exercise even a short walk every day can help. In fact, research has shown that frequency rather than intensity of exercise can decrease PMS symptoms.</p> <p> <br /><b>Are there alternative treatments?</b> <br />According to a 2004 study in Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, a drugless intervention that may provide relief from PMS is something called "external qigong." First, a little background: Human qi comes from two primary sources: one, your parents; and, two, essential substances in nature such as air, water, and food. Both of these qi sources inherited and acquired vital energies are refined and transformed by our organs.</p> <p> <br />By eating a healthy diet and breathing fresh air, the theory goes, the body extracts their most valuable essences and uses them to help form the vital energy. Following these simple principles are the first steps towards creating a healthy balance in the body. <br />In external qigong, a trained practitioner directs his or her own qi outward, with the intention of helping patients' clear blockages, remove negative qi, and balance the flow of qi in the body, thus relieving pain and helping the body to rid itself of certain diseases. Scientists in South Korea report that qigong can improve many of the symptoms associated with PMS, and that it may work as well as more traditional methods of relief.</p> <p> <br />Other techniques such as breathing exercises, meditation, aromatherapy, and yoga focus on reducing stress and promoting relaxation. It this regard, it is also advisable (where practical) to schedule events you expect will be stressful that big family reunion, for example for the week after your period. And because many women seem to be more sensitive in the weeks before their menstrual period, relaxation experts suggest setting aside personal time to unwind, let out pent-up emotions, and focus on things that will nourish your spirit.</p> <p> <br />You may also want to try evening primrose oil, a plant oil that contains gamma-linolenic acid, which is an omega-6 essential fatty acid. Gamma-linolenic acid is involved in the metabolism of hormone-like substances called prostaglandins that regulate pain and inflammation in the body. Other natural remedies commonly used for PMS: ginkgo, vitamin E, royal jelly, dandelion, wild yam, oligomeric proanthocyanidins(OPCs), uva ursi, St. John's wort, progesterone cream as well as Proteolytic Systemic Enzymes.</p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-42914924786652601032012-10-05T04:33:00.001-07:002012-10-05T04:33:32.014-07:00Candida yeast<p>Candida yeast also named as Candida Albicans is a fungal organism that is present in everyone’s intestinal tract. Candida is normally kept under control by the immune system and by beneficial intestinal bacteria.</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-3go_AGPk4OM/UG7FfNRHvZI/AAAAAAAAD-4/usc8yOHFy_8/s1600-h/can%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="can" border="0" alt="can" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-D1E8w6XiNvw/UG7Fh2mnp5I/AAAAAAAAD_A/yurkGhwPtHE/can_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="333" height="337" /></a> <br />Candida Albicans, is opportunistic yeast that normally inhabits the mouth, throat, intestines and genitourinary tract of most humans and is usually considered to be a normal part of the bowel flora (the organisms that coexist with us in our lower digestive tract).Candida job is to recognize and destroy harmful bacteria. Without Candida Albicans in our intestines we would be defenseless against many pathogen bacteria. In a healthy person, Candida Albicans is numbered in millions.</p> <p> Candida is controlled by a properly functioning immune system and "friendly" bacteria. However, if the number of friendly bacteria is decreased (antibiotics), the immune systems is weakened or other conditions for yeast proliferation occur fro e.g. diet high in sugar, improper pH in the digestive system, Candida Albicans will shift from yeast to mycelial fungal form and start to invade the body. In the yeast state Candida is a non-invasive, sugar-fermenting organism, while in fungal state Candida is invasive and can produce very long root-like structures called Rhizoids.</p> <p> Rhizoids are fingerlike protrusions that the fungal yeast uses to gather food (i.e. sugar). The Candida uses these rhizoids to attach to our intestinal wall. Over time they actually can burrow directly through our intestinal wall causing a condition called "Leaky Gut Syndrome". This condition causes our intestines to become porous which allows partially digested food and Candida yeast into our bloodstream where they become toxins. </p> <p>The toxins that the Candida yeast puts into our system are responsible for the varying conditions that each individual experiences. We also develop food sensitivities to the undigested food particles in our blood stream. When this condition occurs, you have system wide or systemic yeast and the overgrowth is called "Candidiasis".</p> <p> <br />When a substance is in a mycelial form it means that it puts out filaments, when the conditions in the gut are good forCandida Albicans to begin to grow and multiple it grows in a mycelial form because it is a fungus. The filaments of Candida Albicans grow into and onto the bowel wall, as it grows it penetrates the bowel wall just like mould or fungus does on a piece of old food. As the Candida Albicans grows and penetrates the bowel wall it damages it, making it permeable which then lets pieces of undigested foodstuff through into the blood stream which then eventually enters the liver. </p> <p>The exposure of the liver and immune system to incomplete molecules create many allergy problems. As the Candida yeast grows in the bowel it creates fermented gas called acetaldehyde which turns sugar and starch into alcohol. It can show up as a variety of symptoms affecting any body systems, these symptoms range from abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhoea, wind, bloating, indigestion, heartburn, rectal itching to recurrent vaginal yeast infection, nasal congestion, bad breath, skin rashes, allergies, chemical sensitivities, depression, headaches, dizziness, muscle aches, and sinus problems. The worst thing about Candidais that most people do not find out that they have it until they are very ill.</p> <p> <br />Candida is tough! If it has taken up residence in your body, it will fight to stay there. Candida is difficult to remove but not impossible because each Candida yeast cell is contained in a capsule that the white blood cells, our front line defense, cannot engulf and kill. Your body must rely on the immune system to kill Candida yeast cells. But, Candida Albicans can put out factors that suppress the response of the immune system to itself. So you need your immune system to neutralize Candida, but the Candida can suppress your immune system from killing it. Candida also has a rather unique ability to change its receptors or "appearance” so that the immune system can not find it to kill it. So Candida is essentially a chameleon, constantly changing its colors; a moving target which makes it exceptionally difficult to eliminate. You need a product that specifically targets Candida- one that Candida cannot fool. <br /></p> <p>What can be done to rid the body of Candida? <br />Avoid the use of antibiotics unless absolutely necessary because they mostly kill friendly bacteria and promote Candida yeast growth. <br />Supplementation that includes anti-fungal ingredients, probiotics, and vitamins such as B-3, B-5 and B-6 to boost the immune system and help diminish overabundant Candida yeast. <br />A nutritious diet with fresh raw vegetables. Avoiding refined, processed foods, tobacco, alcohol, caffeine, sugar, artificial sweeteners, hydrogenated fats and vinegar as they help in growth of Candida. <br />Exercise regularly. Exercise strengthens the immune system and increased breathing will give you more energy to fight against Candida. <br />Proper pH will help the body fight yeast overgrowth. Candida yeast grows in a mildly acidic environment; therefore, getting the body's pH in proper balance will help to get rid of Candida.</p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-2530910701991308002012-10-05T04:28:00.001-07:002012-10-05T04:28:58.158-07:00Amenorrhea, No Menstrual Periods Treatment, Causes and Symptoms<h6>Dr Easton Patrick</h6> <p>Amenorrhea is a medical condition that refers to the absence of menstrual period in women of reproductive age. It can either be primary or secondary amenorrhea. The first one refers to the fact that menstrual period hasn't yet occurred in women aged 16 or more. The secondary amenorrhea is defined as absence of the menstrual period for three or more consecutive moths. A woman does not have period at puberty age, at menopause and while she is pregnant and breast feeding. Each amenorrhea case should start with eliminating the possibility of being pregnant. If this is not the cause, it means that other problems have triggered lack of menstrual cycles.</p> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-EsTn0ZasooQ/UG7EbUZEghI/AAAAAAAAD-o/OqjYU9dn3GM/s1600-h/wem%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 4px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="wem" border="0" alt="wem" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-KsEREaXG8G0/UG7Edoq8zII/AAAAAAAAD-w/2e2ZzZS0lAU/wem_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="160" /></a> <br />Amenorrhea causes are multiple and range between ovary problems and anorexia. Anovulation is a main cause of amenorrhea as well as other problems like tumors, cysts or fibroids. Endocrinal problems are also very frequent causes of amenorrhea. These problems can be of a multitude of types. </p> <p>Lack of menstrual periods can also be determined by problems like bulimia, anorexia, excessively low body weight, anxiety, depression, stress. Women who practice sports or who have constant intense physical activity might suffer of amenorrhea. There can be many other factors that determine amenorrhea, but the bottom line is that absence of menstrual period is not a disease in itself, but a signal that something else is wrong in the body. Once the real cause of amenorrhea is discovered and solved, the menstrual periods will become regular again.</p> <p> <br />Sometimes amenorrhea requires treatment and other times all it takes is to eliminate the cause. In women who suffer of bulimia or anorexia, menstrual periods will come to normal once these problems are solved. In many cases patients might need counseling in order to overcome such problems.</p> <p> Women who practice sports can get back to normal if they slow down for a while and so on. Endocrinal and ovarian problems need to be diagnosed by a doctor and need to be addressed. Treating them implicitly ends amenorrhea also. There are prescribed pills that cause disorders in the occurrence of menstrual cycle and once the woman stops taking them, everything gets back to normal.</p> <p> <br />It is difficult to establish the correct treatment in amenorrhea cases because it depends on correctly identifying the root causes. Nevertheless, a healthy life style and a proper diet provide a bunch of different benefits, including normalization of the menstrual periods. Regular exercise and avoidance of nicotine, caffeine and alcohol are also helpful.</p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-91269914637382135762012-10-03T20:49:00.001-07:002012-10-03T20:49:06.621-07:00Diets That Work For Women - Tips to Lose Weight Easily<p>There is no doubt that diet is a very important way to lose weight but there is no consensus on what are the best diets that work for women. If you wish to lose weight then you certainly need to find the most suitable diet for you. Since dieting is unfortunately very difficult you need to make sure that the one program you select is easy to follow and is also very effective.</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-s7xU7vgLXyw/UG0HKkGO7FI/AAAAAAAAD7w/JDzZQkRUHfs/s1600-h/slim%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="slim" border="0" alt="slim" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-LTTGdbReUF4/UG0HL5Wrs2I/AAAAAAAAD74/obtNwC2DQws/slim_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="329" height="456" /></a></p> <p>There are many different diets that work for women. These include South Beach Diet, Atkins Diet, Mayo Clinic Diet, Weight Watchers Diet and Fertility Diet, just to name a few.</p> <p>You need to select the right diet after considering various factors such as your lifestyle, current health status as well as your dietary preferences. Only if you are very comfortable with the diet will you be able to stick to it for the duration necessary to lose weight. For instance, there is no point going on a vegetarian diet if you really hate the taste of vegetables. The following tips have been found to be very helpful for a lot of women trying to lose weight:</p> <p>1. Count calories at all times: An online calorie counter is a great resource for a woman who is trying to lose weight. If you input every single meal that you eat then you will be able to exercise proper control over what you are eating. You will be able to control one meal, supper for instance, if your calorie counter tells you that you have eaten too much at lunch.</p> <p>2. Plan your shopping well: This ensures that you always have healthy ingredients at hand. If not, you might end up eating snacks or ordering unhealthy (and expensive) takeaway.</p> <p>3. Sign up for a diet food delivery service: If you are at a complete loss regarding how to prepare healthy and low-calorie food then you should consider signing up for a tailored food package program. The company will deliver healthy meals and snacks to you based upon your dietary preferences; you won't have to struggle with recipe books any more.</p> <p>All the diets that work for women require a certain amount of self-control from the dieter. However, it is a big mistake to agonize over your inability to follow a particular diet plan. If you cheat on the diet occasionally you should not feel very bad about it. You will be a lot more successful if you have a positive attitude towards dieting and weight loss.</p> <p>Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/7312830</p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-61357041220932954922012-10-01T21:11:00.001-07:002012-10-01T21:11:29.177-07:00Taking Control of Migraines<h3> </h3> <p> For people who suffer from migraines, the number one goal is to get the overwhelming pain under control. Even when minor, headaches of this type make it difficult to concentrate, make decisions, study in school, work, and sleep, among other things. However, when a migraine headache is at its worst, an individual would have a difficult time functioning on any level.</p> <p>In fact, at this point most people use a quiet and dark room as an escape. While conventional medicine plays an important role in getting migraines under control, chiropractic care has been proven to help prevent these headaches but also lessen the effects.</p> <p><strong>Understanding Migraines</strong></p> <p>Before addressing the way that chiropractic care can benefit someone with migraines, it is important to understand more about headaches of this kind. Although considered common, the person who struggles with these headaches finds the pain and other symptoms to be anything but common. Keep in mind that there is some uniqueness on a person-to-person basis but overall, symptoms are the same for everyone.</p> <p>For starters, there are two main types of migraines to include migraines with aura and migraines without aura. While the most prevalent, there are other types. A diagnosis as to actual type would be based on the symptoms presented. Regardless of the type of headache, symptoms typically include pain on just one side of the head, hypersensitivity to smells, sound, and light, depression, nausea and/or vomiting, sleep disturbances, and visual problems.</p> <p><strong>Types of Migraines</strong></p> <p>As mentioned, there are two main types of migraines but several others as well. Below is a brief description for each:</p> <ul> <li>Migraines with Aura - This involves a neurological phenomenon occurs in which a person would see wavy lines similar to a mirage of water in the middle of a dessert. Along with this, vision is blocked in the center portion of the eye while peripheral vision remains intact. However, when visual disturbances are not involved, other symptoms would appear to include change in language or speech, vertigo or dizziness, and a tingling/numbness of the face, tongue, arms, and legs. Usually, these symptoms appear between 15 and 30 minutes prior to the beginning of a migraine headache.</li> <li>Migraines without Aura - Of all migraines, this is the most common. In this case, pain develops on both sides of the head. Typical symptoms include light sensitivity, nausea, and/or vomiting. Unlike migraines with aura, this type causes fatigue and mood change the day before.</li> </ul> <p>Although there are several additional types of migraines, we listed just a few as examples:</p> <ul> <li>Abdominal Migraine - Although the name sounds strange, this is a type of migraine experienced by children. Symptoms include abdominal pain, pale or flushed skin, and vomiting. This type of headache can last up to four days and children often begin having migraines without aura as adults.</li> <li>Headache-Free Migraine - In this case, a person would experience the wavy lines and blocked out center vision of aura but without actually having other symptoms of a migraine to include pain.</li> <li>Ophthalmoplegic Migraine - Interestingly, pain would start in the left eye, coupled with bouts of vomiting. However, as time passes, nerves that allow eye movement become paralyzed for days or weeks, causing the left eye to droop.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Effective Treatment</strong></p> <p>Before any treatment could be started, the exact type of migraine and cause would need to be determined. With a medical examination, other health issues could be ruled out. With a diagnosis made, various treatments would be discussed. While some people choose conventional treatments, others are interested in natural treatments. With growing interest in alternative medicine, a tremendous amount of attention has been placed on the benefits of chiropractic care for all types of migraines.</p> <p>Instead of getting limited relief and being subjected to side effects of prescription medication, chiropractic care is a natural way of eliminating pain but also other symptoms. In addition to getting migraines under control, chiropractic care can be used to prevent the onset of headaches.</p> <p><strong>Hands-On Approach</strong></p> <p>To start, a chiropractor would gather the patient and family's medical history specific to headaches and other health-related issues, as well as prescription medications. Then, a physical examination would be performed to gain insight into the person's musculoskeletal system, with the primary focus on neck muscles and joints. Although different treatment options are available, one of the main objectives would be to increase limited neck motion.</p> <p>Another treatment is spinal adjusting that uses direct but gentle pressure and motions applied to the spinal area to realign vertebrae that have moved from their original position. This allows nerve signals to reach every part of the body, thereby promoting overall wellness. Spinal adjustments provide relief from pain and other migraine symptoms but best of all people get immediate relief with long-lasting results.</p> <p>A chiropractor would also advise a patient to avoid known triggers such as eyestrain, strong odors, bright lights, changes in sleep patterns, caffeine, alcohol, and certain food items, among others. Chiropractic care used to treat migraines would also consist of recommendations being made specific to lifestyle choices. For instance, a person would be encouraged to get adequate sleep, exercise daily, eat well-balanced meals, and avoid things like alcohol, tobacco products, and illicit drugs. All these things combined allow someone with migraines to take control.</p> <p> </p> <p><em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Rick_Galla">Rick Galla</a></em> </p> <p><a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Rick_Galla"><img title="EzineArticles Expert Author Rick Galla" alt="Expert Author Rick Galla" src="http://ezinearticles.com/members/mem_pics/Rick-Galla_1323511.jpg" /></a></p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-91095700655173884612012-10-01T04:40:00.001-07:002012-10-01T04:40:56.969-07:00Best Ways to Get Rid of Blackheads by: Mixzy Witz<p>Blackheads are often very much disturbing to you specially when it appears in your face, foreheads or chin.

Colon cleansing goes by a number of different names, but its primary purpose is to get rid of toxins and excess waste that is in your intestinal system.</p> <p>When you first learn about this procedure, you might also think that it could be uncomfortable or even painful, but when you do it the right way, colon cleansing is actually a great way to regain some of your energy and health and requires very little effort on your part.</p> <p><b>How Does It Work?</b></p> <p>Experts like to think of your intestinal system as one big pipe and over the years, that pipe starts to get clogged in almost everyone. This is due in part to our diet, but also because few of us get the amount of exercise or sleep that our body needs and aging also takes its toll. With regular colon cleansing, you can lose weight and keep your intestines clean, too.</p> <p>The key to colon cleansing products is usually in a natural laxative ingredient combined with some kind of fiber. These two ingredients, combined with a lot of water, will help you to essentially "flush" out all the materials that are weighing you down and taking up room in your intestinal system.</p> <p><b>What Are the Benefits?</b></p> <p>There are actually many benefits to colon cleansing. Some people choose to do this as a way to lose weight, and yes, it does work. Others do it to lessen the toxic load on their organs, which is especially important if you eat a lot of processed foods or take medications.</p> <p>In addition to feeling better, you will be much lighter, and you will have more energy than ever before. People who do cleansing regularly will usually tell you that the first day or two can be a little hard, but after that, there is a major increase in energy.</p> <p><b>Is There a Downside?</b></p> <p>Ask anyone about colon cleansing and they will tell you that you should expect to spend a lot of time in the bathroom, at least for the first few days. That can be the case with some products, but when you choose a product like Bowtrol, that is not the case at all. This is much easier on your system, and although you will definitely go to the bathroom more than normal, it won't be something that will negatively affect your life.</p> <p><b>Is This Something You Should Do?</b></p> <p>Whether you are someone who wants to lose weight, or you just want to live a healthier life, using natural colon cleansing products can help you to feel better without having to go through some of the more harsh side effects that you get from non-natural products. High quality natural products will make your colon cleansing a more positive and healthy experience for you.</p> <p>For more information on colon cleansing and how to use natural ingredients to help you lose weight, then please visit <a href="http://www.lose-fat-now.net/">http://www.lose-fat-now.net</a> where you will learn about some of the safe and effective products that can help you, too.</p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340129494883848996.post-75630846840723423662012-10-01T04:24:00.001-07:002012-10-01T04:24:41.346-07:00Smile Your Cancer Away!<p><em>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Dr._Wu_Dhi">Dr. Wu Dhi</a></em></p> <p><a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Dr._Wu_Dhi"><img title="EzineArticles Expert Author Dr. Wu Dhi" alt="Expert Author Dr. Wu Dhi" src="http://ezinearticles.com/members/mem_pics/Dr.-Wu-Dhi_634839.jpg" /></a></p> <p>A few weeks ago I got together with a group of doctors in South Florida to share information and go over some of our difficult patients together.</p> <p>Dr. Alex who is an Oncologist told me this story and I high tailed home as quick as I could to write it down and share with you because it directly relates to what I teach and practice.</p> <p>Dr. Alex told me of a patient that is 94 years old who came to see him. As it turned out she tested positive for a nasty form of cancer.</p> <p>Being that she was 94 at the time she didn't panic, she had already lived an incredibly rich life and had lots to be grateful for.</p> <p>She calmly asked the Doctor, what to do. Being trained as an M.D., he suggested the standard protocol which includes chemotherapy, radiation and the possibility of surgery.</p> <p>She didn't want to have chemo and I wouldn't choose that either. It's not likely at her age that it would have done her much good anyway. She knew her days were numbered.</p> <p>Here's the interesting part of the story.</p> <p>What she decided to do instead of getting chemo was to get all her teeth capped, you know, like all the movie stars do.</p> <p>At first, the doctor thought that was the strangest thing he ever heard and she was losing it mentally.</p> <p>Later when asked why-- she responded:</p> <p>"I am 94 years old and I know I'll probably die soon but I want to die with a beautiful smile."</p> <p>This, I would point out, is evidence of a highly developed if not "enlightened" person. The instant she was facing certain death she chose how she wanted to live the rest of her life - "SMILING".</p> <p>Smiling back to the world and smiling back to death.</p> <p>And to that end she wanted to get the biggest and brightest smile she possibly could.</p> <p>So she went to the cosmetic dentist and she spent Ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) to get her teeth fixed and walked out with a perfect smile. Both her daughter and son were thinking that their mother of 94 years old had flipped out and considered the Ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) spent at the dentist a loss to their inheritance.</p> <p>Well, as it turned out, the old lady really looked good with her new set of pearly whites. She had a great smile and wasn't shy about sharing it.</p> <p>The more she showed off her new smile the better she felt. She felt so good about herself that the next time she came to the office about three months later, the doctor re-ran all her tests and she was completely Cancer Free.</p> <p>When you are feeling good about yourself, and you feel that you look good, you have such a strong vibration that you throw diseases out of your body.</p> <p>I always take the time to teach all of my cancer patients the smile meditation. It's a wonderful way to smile away your blues.</p> <p>3 years later that same woman is now 97 years old and she's still showing that smile to everyone she meets. I guess the kids will have to wait a little longer for that inheritance.</p> <p>Wishing you Health, Wealth and Happiness, <br />Dr. Wu Dhi</p> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13017048087805223717noreply@blogger.com0
