We’re all part of a fantastic intellectual and information economy, which thrives on ideas, creativity and intelligence. Keeping your mind sharp is sure to give you the edge over the competition, and more importantly lead to your own higher levels of happiness.</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>I’d like to share a few practices I’ve found are extremely beneficial in keeping my mind sharp and can help you as well:</i></span><br />
<a href="http://1fitnestipss.blogspot.in/2012/08/7-ways-to-keep-your-memory-sharp-at-any.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b> 1) Continue reading, absorbing knowledge and experiencing culture</b></span></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>Sorry to use a clichéd quote, but education is not preparation for life, education is life itself. It should be something pleasurable and done for intrinsic reasons above all else. Read blogs on subjects both within your field and in new fields you know nothing about; read books; watch lectures on fascinating new subjects; read about ancient societies; take in a new form of art you’ve never experienced; you get the idea. Challenge your mind to continually broaden your horizon and soak up new information like an infinite sponge (that’s pretty </i></span><i style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">much what it is, you should use it to do just that).</i><br />
<a href="http://1fitnestipss.blogspot.in/2012/08/7-ways-to-keep-your-memory-sharp-at-any.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><b><i>2<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">) Learn a skill or craft you’ve never tried before like playing an instrument, composing music, painting, building a model airplane, or even coding computer programs. </span></i></b></span></a><br />
<i style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">Engag</i><i style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">e your mind in learning a new skill. You’re never too old to do this, but this is definitely something you should start as young as you can. I started composing my own music at around 17, and in retrospect I wish I had started even younger. You’d be surprised how much learning a new skill will open up many new paths in your mind and help you become even better at whatever you are already an expert at. You’ll also open yourself up to tons of new connections and intellectual social circles by engaging yourself in a new hobby, form of art, or trade.</i><br />
<a href="http://1fitnestipss.blogspot.in/2012/08/7-ways-to-keep-your-memory-sharp-at-any.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b> 3) To improve memory don’t write everything down.</b></span></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>If you can, try this for a week: write down everything you need to do at the beginning of the week, as you normally would, but take your list and put it out of sight. Instead of keeping that list visible at your desk, internalize your projects and simply remember and know what needs to be done, prioritize it in your mind, and do it. Your brain is extremely powerful and you’ll find that, in time, you may not have to write anything down to remember everything (you can still keep a list for reference, but it’s great not to need it).</i></span><br />
<a href="http://1fitnestipss.blogspot.in/2012/08/7-ways-to-keep-your-memory-sharp-at-any.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b> 4) Give your mind time to assimilate knowledge</b></span></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>We live in a culture where we are constantly experiencing and learning new things and taking in new information. This is a great thing, I’m not going to go into the information overload spiel, I don’t really believe in that anyway (you are in total control over how much information you take in at once). But in your process of absorbing new skills, knowledge and life experiences; internal analysis of yourself, what you have learned and where you are going is vital to put everything in proper perspective. Some people do it well during running, others through listening to music, and some people through making art. Find your own place that allows you to assimilate all you have learned and frequent it often.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><u><b><br />
</b></u></span> <span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><u><b>5) Eat well, sleep well and exercise often</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>Giving your mind the proper rest and energy is essential to getting the best performance out of it. This one is pretty self explanatory, but people often forget that you need proper fuel and proper rest to function optimally. Also, putting your physical body through the paces is a surefire way to rejuvenate yourself mentally. If you’re ever feeling stressed, out of inspiration, or depressed, a few days of nutritious food, good sleep and vigorous exercise will put you back to your full self soon enough.</i></span></div>FITNESS&BEAUTYhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17948253670681991671noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982695310992228563.post-2205688383053728002012-08-11T08:00:00.000-07:002012-08-11T08:00:18.099-07:007 ways to keep your memory sharp at any age<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1193485983"><span style="color: orange;"><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">As we grow older, we all start to notice some changes in our ability to remember things.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Maybe you’ve gone into the kitchen and can’t remember why, or can’t recall a familiar name during a conversation. You may even miss an appointment because it slipped your mind. Memory lapses can occur at any age, but we tend to get more upset by them as we get older because we fear they’re a sign of dementia, or loss of intellectual function. The fact is, significant memory loss in older people isn’t a normal part of aging—but is due to organic disorders, brain injury, or neurological illness, with Alzheimer’s being among the most feared.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Most of the fleeting memory problems that we experience with age reflect normal changes in the structure and function of the brain. These changes can slow certain cognitive processes, making it a bit harder to learn new things quickly or screen out distractions that can interfere with memory and learning. Granted, these changes can be frustrating and may seem far from benign when we need to learn new skills or juggle myriad responsibilities. Thanks to decades of research, there are various strategies we can use to protect and sharpen our minds. Here are seven you might try.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span> <span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>1. Keep learning</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">A higher level of education is associated with better mental functioning in old age. Experts think that advanced education may help keep memory strong by getting a person into the habit of being mentally active. Challenging your brain with mental exercise is believed to activate processes that help maintain individual brain cells and stimulate communication among them. Many people have jobs that keep them mentally active, but pursuing a hobby or learning a new skill can function the same way. Read; join a book group; play chess or bridge; write your life story; do crossword or jigsaw puzzles; take a class; pursue music or art; design a new garden layout. At work, propose or volunteer for a project that involves a skill you don’t usually use. Building and preserving brain connections is an ongoing process, so make lifelong learning a priority.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span> <span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>2. Use all your senses</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">The more senses you use in learning something, the more of your <u><b><a href="http://1fitnestipss.blogspot.in/2012/07/5-top-tips-to-protect-your-brain.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">brain</span></a></b></u> will be involved in retaining the memory. In one study, adults were shown a series of emotionally neutral images, each presented along with a smell. They were not asked to remember what they saw. Later, they were shown a set of images, this time without odors, and asked to indicate which they’d seen before. They had excellent recall for all odor-paired pictures, and especially for those associated with pleasant smells. Brain imaging indicated that the piriform cortex, the main odor-processing region of the brain, became active when people saw objects originally paired with odors, even though the smells were no longer present and the subjects hadn’t tried to remember them. So challenge all your senses as you venture into the unfamiliar. For example, try to guess the ingredients as you smell and taste a new restaurant dish. Give sculpting or ceramics a try, noticing the feel and smell of the materials you’re using.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V7sgPEM_rHI/UCZzNqifleI/AAAAAAAAAzM/0VLxkLB0zRw/s1600/260840_100004056437709_420405433_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V7sgPEM_rHI/UCZzNqifleI/AAAAAAAAAzM/0VLxkLB0zRw/s400/260840_100004056437709_420405433_n.jpg" width="289" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Myths about aging can contribute to a failing memory. Middle-aged and older learners do worse on memory tasks when they’re exposed to negative stereotypes about aging and memory, and better when the messages are positive about memory preservation into old age. People who believe that they are not in control of their memory function are less likely to work at maintaining or improving their memory skills and therefore are more likely to experience cognitive decline. If you believe you can improve and you translate that belief into practice, you have a better chance of keeping your mind sharp.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">If you don’t need to use mental energy remembering where you laid your keys or the time of your granddaughter’s birthday party, you’ll be better able to concentrate on learning and remembering new and important things. Take advantage of calendars and planners, maps, shopping lists, file folders, and address books to keep routine information accessible. Designate a place at home for your glasses, purse, keys, and other items you use often. Remove clutter from your office or home to minimize distractions, so you can focus on new information that you want to remember.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">When you want to remember something you’ve just heard, read, or thought about, repeat it out loud or write it down. That way, you reinforce the memory or connection. For example, if you’ve just been told someone’s name, use it when you speak with him or her: “So, John, where did you meet Camille?” If you place one of your belongings somewhere other than its usual spot, tell yourself out loud what you’ve done. And don’t hesitate to ask for information to be repeated.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><u><b><br />
</b></u></span> <span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><u><b>6. Space it out</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Repetition is most potent as a learning tool when it’s properly timed. It’s best not to repeat something many times in a short period, as if you were cramming for an exam. Instead, re-study the essentials after increasingly longer periods of time — once an hour, then every few hours, then every day. Spacing out periods of study is particularly valuable when you are trying to master complicated information, such as the details of a new work assignment. Research shows that spaced rehearsal improves recall not only in healthy people but also in those with certain physically based cognitive problems, such as those associated with multiple sclerosis.</span><br />

</u></b></span> <span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>7. Make a mnemonic</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This is a creative way to remember lists. Mnemonic devices can take the form of acronyms (such as RICE to remember first-aid advice for injured limbs: Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation) or sentences (such as the classic “Every good boy does fine” to remember the musical notes E, G, B, D, and F on the lines of the treble clef).</span></div>FITNESS&BEAUTYhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17948253670681991671noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982695310992228563.post-58778991772924408922012-08-07T23:51:00.000-07:002012-08-07T23:51:13.580-07:00Natural Beauty Tips for Girls<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><u>Natural Beauty Tips for Girls</u></b></span><br />

</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">1) Eat breakfast.</span></u></b> Breakfast sets your metabolism for the day. People who eat breakfast end up eating </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">less during the day than those who don’t. </span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">2) Take your breaks.</span></u></b> Breaks = peace of mind. And peace of mind = energy and focus. Energy and focus </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">productivity. Need I say more?</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">3) Pack your lunch </span></u></b>– and make it tasty – if you eat things that don’t taste good you won’t be satisfied </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">and you’ll end up searching for more…like for the cookie downstairs at your favourite coffee shop.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u><b><br />
</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u><b><span style="color: orange;">4) Eat lunch away from your desk</span></b></u>. When you eat your lunch while responding to your emails, you may </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">as well be eating your emails. While eating, it is best to focus on eating. In the end, you will better digest </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">your food. You will also remember eating your meal and will feel more satisfied from it. Once again, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">preventing the need for that cookie downstairs. </span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">5) Be careful with drinking more than 2 cups of coffee per day.</span></u></b> Trust me, you don’t notice how jittery </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">you have become until you cut down. </span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">6) Don’t heat your lunch in a plastic container in the microwave. </span></u></b>The plastics will get into your food and </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">increase your risk of developing cancer. Please. This is a simple one. If you really need to heat your food, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">ask your company to buy a hotplate.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u><b><span style="color: orange;">7) If possible, bike or walk to & from work. </span></b></u>There are so many benefits to this tip. You will arrive at </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">work with a healthy glow, fit in your exercise for the day, get that much needed fresh air before you sit </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">at your desk, avoid road rage, and often save time (bikers and walkers don’t have to deal with traffic –</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">they just ride or walk on by).</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">8) Drink greens.</span></u></b> At 3pm often drinking a greens drink, such as a chlorella or spirulina mixture, can give </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">you that boost you need to keep you going until the end of the day.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u><b><br />
</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u><b><span style="color: orange;">9) Nuts make great office snacks.</span></b></u> They are full of protein and fat. These two nutrients help sustain your </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">energy over a long period of time. When you’re energy is sustained, you’ll be able to focus and be more </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">productive. A high‐carbohydrate snack, like crackers, granola/breakfast bars, or muffins will often give </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">you a short burst of energy…and then the inevitable crash…hence the need for that third cup of coffee. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="color: orange;"><u><b>10) Fit your exercise in before you get home for the day.</b></u></span> Home is comfort. If you get home after a very </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">long day at the office, the comfort will lure you in. However, it is the exercise that will make you feel </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">better, not the couch. I’ll say this again – get your exercise in before you get home for the day. </span><br />

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>2. Use Natural Sesame Oil Conditioner</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">For dry hair, rub a small amount of organic sesame or olive oil on broken and split ends. Cover hair in a plastic bag or a shower cap and leave for at least 45 minutes, or up to overnight. Shampoo and rinse well.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">It’s important to have clean hair but over washing can leave hair brittle and void of natural lubricating oils. Wash hair every other day or every third day.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>4. Don’t Drink Beer – Rinse With It!</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Pre-shower, give your hair a rinse with 1/4 cup of flat organic, high-quality beer. Leave the beer in the hair for 15 minutes, then rinse with a natural shampoo as normal.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u><b><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Simply giving your hair a weekly baking soda rinse will help rid the hair of the layers of chemical gels and environmental pollutants that can attach to the hair throughout the week. It also gives the hair a vibrant glossy feeling and may even lighten it. Add 1 tablespoon of baking soda to your hair while doing your normal shampooing regime.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u><b><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Add 2 teaspoons of organic sandalwood powder to 3 tablespoons lime juice. An excellent cooling summer hair mask. You may also replace sandalwood with licorice powder, or combine both into a mix.</span><br />

Use a Coconut Oil Conditioner</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">For dry and brittle hair, increase moisture by giving yourself a coconut hot oil treatment. Massage a small amount of warm coconut oil (organic and cold-pressed if possible), into scalp and through ends. Cover and let sit for at least 30 minutes, and then shampoo and rinse as normal. You may need to wash twice to get out all of the oil.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>8. Use Essential Oil Remedies</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Avoid harsh chemical sprays. Rosemary essential oil is an excellent de-tangler. Rub a few drop into your palms and then through damp, tangled hair. You can also put a little rosemary oil on your hair brush for de-tangling action.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u><b><br />
</b></u></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u><b>9. Eat for Healthy Hair</b></u></span><br />

Avoid processed foods with chemicals and preservatives that strip body and hair of healthy, natural glow.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">For extra conditioning and healthier hair, add 2 teaspoons of castor oil to one egg white. Massage the oil-egg mixture into wet hair and scalp. Leave for at least 25 minutes before rinsing.</span><br />

You can still eat other foods but lower on the intake of fat, sugar, and calories. Some foods have empty calories. Avoid them as much as possible. Try not to eat too much junk food such as potato chips, pizza, cookies, cakes, etc.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="color: orange;"><u><b>2 Consume healthy liquids: </b></u></span>Make sure to take in plenty, i.e. 4-5 liters, of cool water (of course lessening the daily intake of alcohol is a huge help in getting that natural look). Water flushes away the toxins and gives your skin that natural glow. Avoid drinking caffeinated drinks.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">3 Exfoliate your skin to waken it up and give you a healthy glow.</span></u></b> Only exfoliate your skin once or twice a week, though. Over exfoliating can make you more prone to breakouts.</span><br />

Avoid drinking Pepsi,Coke etc.They stain your teeth giving your smile a yellow look.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">5 Moisturize your skin daily.</span></u></b> This will keep your skin soft and will also keep your skin beautiful as you get older.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">6 Skip the foundation unless you really,</span></u></b> really need it. Heavy makeup hides true beauty! Work on your skin instead, applying coconut oil to your face before you turn in for the night will smooth and clear your skin tone plus it treats acne. Add some pink blush to the apples of your cheeks (smile when you're putting it on). Swipe on chapstick to your lips to keep them lush looking.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">7 Wear clothes you feel good in,</span></u></b> and that define your features. Try to avoid wearing clothes that do not flatter your figure. You don't need to religiously stick to every single fashion tip you come across (most are quite boring anyway) but do take the time to learn how to bring out the beauty of your unique figure.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">8 Always keep your hair brushed.</span></u></b> To keep it in place during the day, spray on a little leave-in conditioner. Keep your hair neatly groomed. Use organic shampoo and conditioner, and avoid anything with sulfates in it. To get rid of residue, occasionally add a little baking soda to your shampoo. Always wash your hair with warm to lukewarm water, never hot. Hot water strips off all the natural oils. Depending on the season, style it so that you are comfortable and your hair is protected from environmental hazards.</span><br />

Look up some guides on how to pick the right eyebrows for your face shape first, and if you're still not sure then go to a beautician and ask their advice.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">10 Stand tall with great posture.</span></u></b> Roll your shoulders a few times to feel where they should be. Keep your chin up. Keep your head balanced atop your shoulders, avoiding "forward-head posture."</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">13 Have a healthy diet that includes fruit, vegetables, protein, and enough water.</span></u></b> Don't starve yourself or try to force your body to be thinner than it naturally is; it won't work in the long run and you could end up with serious health problems.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><span style="color: orange;">14 Sun protection.</span></u></b> When outside protect your skin with a sunscreen. make sure you apply the sun sunscreen at least 15 min before you step out into the sun</span><br />

Looking through someone else’s eyes </u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>We can never see our own mistakes in our home as we are always surrounded by them and it is easy to have the blinkers on. Get real and take the time to walk around the house as though seeing it for the first time. Even get a friend to walk through with you and get them to point out all the bad things they notice. You need to have a tough skin and accept what they say, as buyers will only tell you the truth by walking the other way. </i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>2. First impressions always count </u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>As cliché as it sounds, as soon as the buyer walks through the front door what they see will leave a lasting imprint as what to expect for the rest of the home. Bring up the standard of presentation at the entry and make sure the rest of the house lives up to the expectations you have created.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>3. De-clutter and storage</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>No one wants to see someone else’s mess, especially if you are walking into a place you want to see yourself living in. Put away unnecessary knick-knacks into boxes and clean out your cupboards. Yes, people will open the doors and they don’t want to catch what’s falling out of them! Take up short-term storage and pack away those extra boxes, bikes and furniture you don’t need. You want to give the illusion of more space, not how much you can cram into one area.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>4. Photos</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>I hate the word de-personalise, as we all know some one lives in the house and we want the feeling of a warm inviting home environment. Minimise the family photos, especially the blown wedding picture staring at you from the bedroom. That makes people uncomfortable and feel like they are invading. Keep a small section of family photos to one area of the house only and arrange nearby other decorator items such as vases and flowers to take the focus off just staring at the people who live there.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>5. Lighting </u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>There is nothing worse than walking into a dark house - it gives a negative feeling as though you are creeping around. It might be just a case of new paintwork but if it is more than that put a few lamps around and keep them on during the day for openings. It not only provides extra lighting but gives a special ambiance to the room.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>6. Paint</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Nothing freshens up like a brand new paint job. If unsure what scheme to chose neutrals are always the best way to go. Soft whites, stone and yellows are the easiest to blend and co-ordinate with. But if you feel a need for colour, paint a whole bedroom or study area a different colour from the main rooms as a break in the neutral scheme. Putting in bright feature walls just for the sake of adding colour can more often be off-putting if not done to co-ordinate with the rest of the house.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>7. Furniture Arrangement</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>We all know our own floor plan and how to move about the house, but bring strangers through in groups and they may be bumping into the furniture and only going away with bruises. You need to be aware of the walking traffic that will be going through your house on open days and move your furniture accordingly. Remove as many obstacles as possible from door entry/exits and be aware of large chunky furniture that may clutter up the room.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>8. Hire Furniture</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>You might like the cushiness of your couch and the five beanbags your friends sit on for movie nights but this doesn’t mean best presentation. Consider reducing the amount of your own furniture and investing in some hire furniture to finish the house off. New and well-presented furniture give a fresh sense of life to the interior.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>9. Maintenance</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Keep an eye on the small jobs around the house that you never got around to. People notice the dodgy light fitting, the door that doesn’t close properly and fraying edges of carpet. It is fair to say a lot of people only finish their house when they are selling but it is essential to get these jobs done as no-one will take on other people's unfinished business.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>10. Fragrance</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>We have all caught on to the fresh-baked bread and the coffee brewing to add a sense of ‘home’ to the interior but as smell is one of our heightened senses it still has a role to play. Fresh flowers not only give life and add a touch of romance to a place but scented flowers such as lilies and roses are subtle mood lifters when buyers walk by. It is easy to get accustomed to the smell of our beloved four-legged friends but buyers will smell the scent straight away. Have your carpets and rugs cleaned and ask them to put a scent in the cleaner. You may even consider to have the animals kept outside or away with friends for the duration of the campaign. This is a tough decision but the overwhelming smell of animals can be a major reason for the buyer to not consider your property</i></span><br />

Coconut oil contains lauric acid, which is a proven antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal agent and it is easily digested and absorbed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This is why it works well for conditions such as Crohn’s disease, irritable bowel syndrome and coeliac disease where digestion is a problem for many people.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The anti-fungal aspect of coconut oil helps to kill candida in the gut which is common problem for people with digestive issues.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The great benefit of coconut oil is that it helps the body eliminate toxins as well as improving digestion and assists with the absorption of beneficial nutrients from our food. When more nutrients are absorbed this aids the body at cellular level and supports the immune system.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Coconut oil is reported to enhance metabolism and for many people this helps them to achieve their ideal body weight in conjunction with regular exercise and a healthy diet. Because metabolism is enhanced, the thyroid gland which produces hormones that regulate metabolism, by using coconut oil, this can be helpful in treating Hypothyroidism an underactive thyroid.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jOD7k3uu9Lo/T_KUSDSJzzI/AAAAAAAAArg/oWkCt5N0ERk/s1600/coconut-oil-TIPS.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jOD7k3uu9Lo/T_KUSDSJzzI/AAAAAAAAArg/oWkCt5N0ERk/s400/coconut-oil-TIPS.jpg" title="IMRAN" width="400" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">There are a number of published studies about the effect of coconut oil on metabolism. Dr. Ray Peat, a biochemist and proponent of coconut oil for thyroid patients says;</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">“An important function of coconut oil is that it supports mitochondrial respiration, increasing energy production that has been blocked by the unsaturated fatty acids. Since the polyunsaturated fatty acids inhibit thyroid function at many levels, coconut oil can promote thyroid function simply by reducing those toxic effects. It allows normal mitochondrial oxidative metabolism, without producing the toxic lipid peroxidation that is promoted by unsaturated fats. Coconut oil added to the diet can increase the metabolic rate.”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The best coconut oil to buy is one that is cold or expeller-pressed and unrefined. It’s a safe oil to use it for cooking as it has a high burning point.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Coconut oil contains a high percentage of saturated fatty acids, more than 50 % of it is Lauric acid. This ingredient has a very positive effect for our health because it strengthens the immune system and enables the body to fight against all kinds of infections and viruses. Conventional fats only contain very little or none at all and are less beneficial for our well-being. But that's not all ! It can also help you to lose weight. The medium fatty acids in coconut oil are clearly better digestible which results in less fat deposit in the fat cells and it encreases the metabolism which burns off calories and let you lose weight. </i></span><br />

It was blamed to cause high colesterol levels in the blood, but research has proven the opposite. The regular use shows very positive results in the treatmejavascript:void(0)nt of diabetes because it reduces high blood sugar levels. And because it is free of long-chain fatty acids it does not collect in the bloodstream, which keeps the blood vessels free of deposits. Studys have also shown that the consumption of this tropical oil positively improved the condition of dementia patients, and it has a anti-viral effect on the HIV virus. </u></i></span><br />

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>1. Take B vitamins</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>All vitamins help keep the body running like a well-oiled machine, but your brain, in particular, benefits from Bs. New research highlights the importance of B vitamins in protecting seniors from stroke and dementia, two main causes of disability in the elderly. Specifically, B vitamins can help quench homocysteine, an amino acid that damages blood vessels. In 2002, a study published in Stroke: Journal of the American Heart Association found people with moderately high levels of homocysteine had a more than fivefold increased risk of stroke and a threefold increased risk for Alzheimer’s disease compared to those with low levels of the substance in their blood.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Vitamin B3 (niacin) also has been linked to brain health. Researchers at the Chicago-based Rush Institute for Healthy Aging found in 2004 that seniors with flagging levels of niacin were more likely to suffer from Alzheimer’s than those with niacin to spare. Although researchers have yet to pinpoint what’s going on, they suspect that B vitamins protect and nurture dendritic growth, a key component of the nervous system and brain health. “You’ve got to get in the habit of taking B vitamins every day,” Weiss says.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />

<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>2. Try ginkgo</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Extracted from the ancient ginkgo tree, ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba) is considered the best of all brain-boosting supplements on the shelf. Studies of people with Alzheimer’s disease show that ginkgo enhances blood flow to the brain and ameliorates memory recall. It also adds tone and spring to aging blood vessels. In addition, ginkgo is a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. “Ginkgo will be one of the most valuable herbs for the next 100 years,” Weiss says.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>For minor memory loss associated with aging, take 40 to 60 mg of ginkgo biloba extract (GBE) three times a day. For Alzheimer’s disease, up each dose to 80 to 120 mg three times per day. Ginkgo is generally safe for long-term use; however, the extract does thin the blood and can clash with some medications, especially blood thinners. So if you take prescription drugs, consult with your doctor before tossing ginkgo into the mix and make sure not to take it before a surgery.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>3. Watch inflammation</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Inflammation comes to the rescue when the body is hurt or ill, but the immune system’s Dr. Jekyll can morph into Mr. Hyde if the inflammation switch gets stuck in the “on” position.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Chronic inflammation, whether from an irritated bowel, inflamed gums or autoimmune disease, weakens arteries in both the heart and the head. Making the arteries more vulnerable to rupture, the damage opens the doorway to heart attack and stroke. The key to prevention is keeping an eye on the early warning signs. “Inflammation is cumulative. It may end up in the blood vessels, but that’s not where it starts,” Weiss says. “If you have inflamed joints, gums or gastrointestinal tract, your whole body is loaded, and the immune system will hype up heart disease progression.”</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>The good news is you can combat inflammation naturally by bulking up on specific foods, herbs and supplements. Start with omega-3-rich fish. People who eat two servings a week of coldwater fatty fish, such as mackerel, wild salmon and tuna, cut their risk of heart attack, stroke and Alzheimer’s disease, according to dozens of scientific studies. If you aren’t a fish fan, consider taking fish oil supplements ( between 1,000 and 2,000 mg daily). Other supplements to help douse the fire include turmeric (400 to 600 mg three times per day) and ginger (500 to 1,000 mg twice per day).</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>If you’re still concerned about inflammation, ask your doctor to test your C-reactive protein levels (CRP for short). A blood marker for inflammation, levels of CRP creep up as inflammation heats up. Although the CRP test is not yet considered standard fare, its use is becoming more mainstream. Two studies in the January 2005 issue of The New England Journal of Medicine indicate CRP may be as important as cholesterol in establishing cardiovascular risk. The CRP test is most useful for people with a moderate heart disease risk whose cholesterol levels are seemingly normal. As more doctors subscribe to the importance of uncovering inflammation, CRP tests may rival cholesterol tests as a diagnostic tool.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Another test to consider is one that measures levels of white blood cells (WBC). After studying the link between high levels of WBC and heart disease in the 72,000 participants of the Women’s Health Initiative, authors of a study published in the March issue of Archives of Internal Medicine concluded that unusually high levels of WBCs may be useful for detecting heart disease in otherwise healthy-looking people. (Food allergies, especially to wheat, gluten and dairy, also create inflammation in the body over time; so does over reliance on nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics.)</i></span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>4. Exercise your brain</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>You know exercise ensures muscular brawn, but it’s easy to forget the brain’s need for heavy lifting. The importance of performing mental gymnastics was first foretold by a 2002 study published in JAMA. For the research on mental acuity and aging, scientists at the Rush Alzheimer’s Disease Center recruited 801 Catholic nuns, priests and brothers from around the United States. All were at least 65 years old, and none had a clinical diagnosis of dementia. The seniors completed a survey designed to measure, among other things, how much time they devoted to seven different activities, ranging from watching television to playing card games. Over the next 4.5 years, the scientists periodically evaluated the seniors’ brainpower for signs of slippage. During the study, more than 111 participants were diagnosed with shades of Alzheimer’s. When researchers compared those struck by the disease with their activity level, they found that those who flexed their mental muscles the most were 47 percent less likely to develop Alzheimer’s than those who taxed their brains the least. Weiss wasn’t surprised by the results. “In the brain, there is a big, big difference between watching television and reading a book,” he says. “Your brain makes new neurons when you process information. I see lots of older folks who are readers stay sharp while those who watch TV melt into the couch.”</i></span><br />

</div><div><div><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>5. Get diabetes under control</u></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bnAduJb1-vg/T_HLB3TdxEI/AAAAAAAAAqw/nZuZBm_qFzQ/s1600/brain-teasers-boost-brain-power.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><i><img alt="" border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bnAduJb1-vg/T_HLB3TdxEI/AAAAAAAAAqw/nZuZBm_qFzQ/s400/brain-teasers-boost-brain-power.jpg" title="imran" width="400" /></i></a></div><div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>If you have diabetes, you have extra incentive to pamper your brain. Diabetes puts people at a higher risk of dementia. Experts know that diabetes is damaging to blood vessels, but they are just beginning to understand the relationship to dementia. A groundbreaking study published last March in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease confirmed not only that the brain makes insulin but also that people who die from Alzheimer’s disease lack insulin in key areas of their brains. “Some people think of Alzheimer’s disease as diabetes of the brain,” Whitmer says. “More and more evidence shows that insulin plays a direct role in the neurodegeneration seen with Alzheimer’s.”</i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>If there’s a final analysis to be made here, it might be that while eating right, exercising and taking vitamins and supplements might not be, as Weiss says, a rocket-science Rx for heart and brain health, it’s one each of us can follow with relatively little pain in exchange for considerable long-term gain.</i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>1.</b></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> We spend time removing dead skin from our body but we don't do the same for our lips. Use a dry toothbrush gently to brush the dead skin off your lips. Do this at least once a week.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>2.</b></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Use lip balm to add moisture to your lips and to get rid of dry lips. Avoid flavoured lip balms at all costs. You may constantly lick your lips which may cause chapping.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RwBu5Vy1mlM/T_F-BEzyqUI/AAAAAAAAAn0/sJYQ8Dj39A4/s1600/gft.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="261" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RwBu5Vy1mlM/T_F-BEzyqUI/AAAAAAAAAn0/sJYQ8Dj39A4/s400/gft.jpg" title="imran" width="400" /></a><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>3.</b></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> If you want to cause an illusion of larger lips apply a little gloss to the centre of your bottom lip. The gloss will reflect light giving the appearance of larger lips.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>4.</b></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Avoid darker coloured lipsticks if you have thinner lips. They will highlight your thin lips even more so avoid. Stick to more neutral colours instead.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;">5.</span></b><span style="font-size: large;"> If you have larger lips there will be plenty of women who envy you but large lips can sometimes play down the rest of your features</span></span><br />

While genetic factors certainly can not be avoided, adverse environmental factors can still be controlled so that the aging process could be slowed. Hostile environmental conditions, such as too hot, dry, full of pollution, the influence of the parasite, the noise, solar radiation, can cause the body is not stable, even damaged.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Unfortunately, modern man is increasingly frequent contacts with foreign chemical substances that can cause cell injury, immune disorders, and cancer. Contact with hazardous compounds can occur through the work environment, diet, lifestyle or other means. Surrounding environment, both inside and outside the room filled with many toxic gases given off by various furnishings. Sick building syndrome is one of the impact.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Sunlight, though very useful for humans, can sometimes be dangerous, especially the influence of ultraviolet radiation that is harmful to the body. Ultraviolet A ( UV - A, 320-400 nm ) fluorescent effect (the ability of certain substances to diffuse light ). UV - B ( 290-320 nm ) can cause erithema ( skin redness ) and can trigger skin cancer. UV - C ( 100-290 nm ) is very damaging so it can be used as a germ killer. At the equator, in a state of light is not cloudy, about 30 % of UV - B can reach the Earth. The farther from the equator decreases. However, ozone depletion that began and spread in the polar regions could provide a threat of UV radiation exposure.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">UV - B can have devastating effects on proteins and DNA that can cause skin cancer, eye cataracts, and decreased endurance. Therefore sunbathing habits that took many hours is definitely not a healthy hobby. Conversely, methods such as life returned to the wild life in the wild, camping, exploring nature, is the best way to reduce the physical stress caused by environmental stresses.</span><br />

<span style="color: yellow; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><u>Health, fitness and beauty are the most precious, amongst the uncountable blessings of God. Normally people take care for their health, fitness and beauty and spend a lot in trying to gain and maintain it. And try to avoid every thing which is harmful for their health, fitness and beauty. </u></i></span><br />
<span style="color: yellow; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><u><br />
</u></i></span><br />
<span style="color: yellow; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><u>I think the most harmful and terrible hazard not only for health beauty and fitness but even to the life as a whole is fire. Here are given some guidelines in order to prevent fire hazard;-</u></i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>Awareness of Fire Hazards</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The most important thing to avoid, fight and to escape from fire is the awareness. Each family member, even children should give awareness about fire hazards equally and should follow the all safety precaution regarding fire. Fire never excuses the mistake of any one.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>Avoid Carelessness about Fire</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Many cases of fire are result of carelessness for example smoking near petrol pumps is carelessness. So avoid any carelessness which may cause fire hazard.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The second cause of fire is negligence; for example ignoring small fire or ignoring burning cigarettes butts. Avoid negligence to prevent fire.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>Accidental Fire</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The third cause of fire, when there is no negligence and carelessness is called accidental fire. Short circuiting or electric wires is an example of accidental fire. Accidents can not be stopped but further guidelines may be derived from any accident as safety precautions.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>Installation of Fire alarms</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It is necessary to install fire alarms and smoke detectors in order to avoid any accidental fire. And keep the batteries of your alarm system serviceable with its regular replacements.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>Avoid Careless Smoking</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Most of the fire cases have been found the result of careless smoking. Smokers should be careful while smoking in covered area especially in bed rooms. Some smoker use to smoke before sleeping, they should avoid smoking; especially if they have drunk or feeling sleepy.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>Display Emergency Help Numbers.</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Emergency help numbers (police, fire brigade, Hospital, ambulance service or other related services) should be displayed near your telephone set and saved in mobile sets in order to avoid any delay to call the helpers. While calling for help, explain complete home/office address to the concerned staff so they can reach the destination immediately.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>Emergency Doors / Exit points</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">In every building emergency door and alternate exit points should be provided in order to escape the life during emergency. All the residents of the building should fully aware about the escaping plan during emergency without any confusion. </span></div>FITNESS&BEAUTYhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17948253670681991671noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982695310992228563.post-20202224919701364212012-06-28T23:01:00.000-07:002012-06-28T23:01:03.707-07:00Six Great Tips To Healthy Teeth<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="color: red; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><u>Six Great Tips To Healthy Teeth</u></b></span><br />

Strong, white teeth are an added feature that makes you look much better and increase your self confidence. It is for this reason that millions of people throughout the world spend billions of dollars every year in the search of dentistry options that will help them have and maintain beautiful, healthy teeth. There are numerous procedures, both natural and technological, that have been developed over the years specifically to satisfy this demand for good teeth and a good proportion of these procedures will cost you an arm and a leg to acquire. The good news is that you do not have to spend all that money and there are several simple processes that are very easy to execute, but which in the end will be able to help you achieve the same results as those of the expensive treatment, if not better results.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: yellow; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="color: yellow; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>The six tips listed below should help you to maintain healthy clean teeth at very little cost. It is worth mentioning here that all of the tips below require dedication in maintaining the stated routines and procedures since the results of the efforts only begin to manifest in the long run. These are not tips to help you get your teeth white and healthy in a single day.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;">1)</span><span style="font-size: large;"> Brush your teeth regularly- It is important to brush teeth following each and every meal that you take. This includes the snacks, which most people tend to overlook in the opinion that not much damage can come from snacks. In addition, brush your teeth every night before you go to sleep and every morning once you wake up.</span></i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;">2)</span><span style="font-size: large;"> Use dental floss every day- you should make an effort of flossing your teeth as many times as possible. The flossing should be limited to at least once every single day. Flossing teeth is important since the dental floss is able to reach deep places in between your teeth that the toothbrush cannot and to remove calculus from there.</span></i></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;">3)</span><span style="font-size: large;"> Brush or scrape your tongue- Many people brush only their teeth and forget about the tongue. Your tongue too harbors the same kind of food leftovers on which the bacteria and the teeth are in constant touch with the tongue so it makes good sense to brush both. You can alternatively use a tongue scraper to achieve even better results.</span></i></span><br />

<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><u><b><br />
</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Whether it's a fleeting case of morning breath or a lingering bout with halitosis, everyone has bad breath sometimes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Unfortunately, for as easy as it is to get bad breath, getting rid of it can be a lot more complicated. For some, employing a toothbrush, floss and mouthwash more frequently to remove plaque, the nearly invisible film of bacteria that contributes to bad breath, will do the trick. For others, a professional cleaning to remove stuck-on tartar, which is hardened plaque, will be necessary. Others still will discover that cavities and gum disease are at the root of their bad breath problems.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Occasionally, bad breath is due to something in the lungs or gastrointestinal tract, or to a systemic infection. Some health problems, such as sinus infections or diabetes, can also cause bad breath. And sometimes it just comes down to what you ate for dinner.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><u> 1: Brush and Floss</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<br />

In fact, there are probably more bacteria colonized in your mouth than there are cells in your entire body. Of the some 700 kinds of bacteria that thrive in the mouth, scientists have identified and studied fewer than half -- which makes it difficult to know exactly how to combat the odors that all those bacteria give off as a byproduct when they digest their food.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Regardless, there are a few things you can do to beat the bad breath caused by germs. Start by keeping your mouth clean: Your food supply is their food supply. Although you can try to kill bacteria with mouthwash, this is only a temporary solution. The bacteria will grow back over time. Your best defense is to brush your teeth thoroughly at least twice a day, and floss once a day. This will help remove the food trapped between your teeth, as well as the food trapped in the gum line. Otherwise, both of these areas would provide breeding grounds for bacteria. If food particles are left to linger, bad breath is imminent,</i></span><br />

<br />
<b><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><u>2: Clean Your Tongue</u></span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Scientists suspect that some bacteria, particularly bacteria located on the top of your tongue closest to your throat, actually protect against foul-smelling breath. Other types of bacteria, however, produce a pungent odor as they multiply. What does this research mean for you? The type of bacteria most prevalent on your tongue could mean the difference between good and bad breath. Unfortunately, researchers don't yet know how to tip the bacterial balance so that you'll always have naturally sweet-smelling breath.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>There is one simple thing you can do to help, though: Clean your tongue. The rough surface of the tongue is home to a potentially foul-smelling combination of dead cells, food debris, bacteria and the byproducts of bacterial digestion -- factors that all contribute to less-than-fresh breath. Be sure to brush your tongue with your toothbrush after you brush your teeth. Or, for a more effective scrubbing, use a tongue cleaner. This handheld device is designed to scrape the surface of the tongue and remove odor-causing debris from its surface.</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>You've had a good night's sleep, a treasure topped only by the chance to awaken leisurely as the morning sun streams in through your bedroom window. As you stretch your arms and legs and decide finally to roll out of bed, you relish this perfect morning -- until you get a whiff of your own breath, that is.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Why is morning breath so awful? When you sleep, you produce less saliva than when you're awake (and therefore eating, drinking and speaking). Saliva contains oxygen, and oxygen deters the growth of bacteria</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><i>Unfortunately, "morning breath" is a misnomer. Your mouth can become dry during the day, too. And a dry mouth -- whether it's at midnight or noon -- can quickly cause bad breath. You need plenty of saliva because it helps clean your mouth; it's naturally antibacterial, and it washes away food particles. Banish morning breath by brushing your teeth, cleaning your tongue and rinsing with mouthwash. To keep your saliva flowing throughout the day, stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water.</i></span> </span><br />

</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Relying on a mint to mask bad breath works about as well as using cologne to cover up body odor. It may work for a little while, but eventually the smell will break through. A mint or piece of chewing gum simply won't kill the bacteria that cause mouth odor. Plus, if the mint or gum contains sugar, it will act as a buffet for the bacteria your mouth. They will continue to rapidly reproduce and release the byproducts, such as volatile sulfur compounds, that cause bad breath</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>It's also possible that your bad breath is caused by a medical condition, not just the bacteria in your mouth, and a mint definitely won't replace a visit to the doctor. Although mouth odor is often associated with gum disease or tooth decay, it can occasionally signal health problems such as respiratory or sinus infections, bronchitis, diabetes or malfunctions of the liver or kidney </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>If checkups with your dentist and physician don't reveal an undiagnosed medical condition, and if you're cleaning your teeth and tongue on a regular basis, the culprit could be as close as your dinner plate. We'll explore some common foods that cause bad breath in the next section.</i></span><br />

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><u>5: Know the Culinary Culprits</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>The foods you eat can exert a lot of influence on the way your breath smells. So, if you're one of the 90 million people in America who have bad breath, it's time to examine your dinner plate.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>You probably expect some foods to give you bad breath, such as garlic or onions. But some bad-breath culprits may surprise you. Take meat, for example. Meat particles are known for sticking around, even after you've swallowed your bite of steak and washed it down with a gulp of water. These meat particles collect at the gumline, get stuck between teeth, and sometimes work their way under fillings or crowns -- and are especially attractive to reproducing bacteria.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>High-protein and low-carb diets, while a possible boon to your waist size, aren't great for your breath. Eating fewer than 100 grams of carbohydrates a day triggers a condition known as ketosis, a metabolic state that causes your body to burn fat instead of sugar. Ketosis is notorious for causing bad breath</i></span><br />

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><u>6: Rinse After Eating and Drinking</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>What you drink can cause bad breath, too. Consuming an acidic beverage, including soda pop, coffee or alcohol, will release compounds into your bloodstream that will, in turn, release odors through your breath. Plus, acidic drinks lower the pH level in your mouth: A lower pH level allows bacteria to flourish and release volatile sulfur compounds, which smell similar to a rotten egg.</i></span><br />

</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Even if you don't want to avoid your morning latte, you can still freshen your breath by doing one simple thing: Rinse your mouth with plain water after drinking it. This will help rebalance your mouth's pH levels. Rinsing with water also works after meals -- no matter what you've eaten. Swishing the water around may help remove some of the food particles left in the mouth after a meal and prevent bad breath from setting in,</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>If you're serious about combating bad breath, chase your meal with green tea or sip it throughout the day. Green tea helps keep your breath fresh because it has antibacterial compounds that fight the germs in your mouth. Up the ante by using a cinnamon stick to stir your tea; cinnamon has essential oils that fight stinky breath, too </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Mint, parsley, basil, cilantro and dill temporarily mask offending oral odors because they release scented essential oils when chewed or crushed. While these herbs offer a quick solution to rancid breath, they also contain high levels of chlorophyll that can provide long-term benefits.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Chlorophyll is the green pigment that allows plants to photosynthesize energy from light. It can also help neutralize internal body odors, thereby reducing the smells that emanate from the body -- including bad breath [source: Duke]. If you aren't interested in chewing on fresh herbs or steeping them to make a tea, you can ingest concentrated chlorophyll either as tablets or sublingual drops (which are drops placed under the tongue for absorption).</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>There are certain foods that smell good -- and that make your breath smell good, too. Take fruits high in vitamin C, for example. Melons, berries and citrus fruits such as oranges are packed with vitamin C, something that doesn't sit well with the bacteria in your mouth. Instead of continuing to reproduce, the bacteria will begin to die. And the more C-laden fruits you eat, the more oral germs you'll kill.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Other foods that help quell rancid breath include raw, crunchy fruits and vegetables. Celery, carrots and apples are all good options to munch after a meal because these fiber-packed foods will help remove any food that's stuck in your teeth. These foods also stimulate saliva, which is detrimental to bacteria [source: Gazziniga].</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>If you're one of the 46.6 million Americans who still smoked cigarettes as of 2011, you've probably battled off-putting breath, too. Not only do cigarettes release a cocktail of chemicals into the mouth, but they also cause a host of other problems.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>People who smoke cigarettes are more likely to experience oral infections and disease. In addition, they often have a plaque buildup on their teeth, and plaque is an ideal place to harbor odor-causing bacteria. Plus, smoking tends to dry out the mouth. A dry mouth is an oxygen-depleted mouth, which provides the perfect environment for anaerobic bacteria to thrive. Although they don't typically inhale smoke into their lungs, pipe and cigar enthusiasts face similar risks</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>You haven't eaten garlic in six months, you've given up acidic drinks and you end each meal by eating a raw apple instead of a sugary dessert.

</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Unfortunately, one of the most common causes of persistent bad breath is also one of the most overlooked: a lack of regularly scheduled visits to your dentist. The American Dental Association recommends that children and adults have a professional cleaning regularly. For most, twice a year should suffice. For others who experience tartar buildup more quickly, four times a year may be necessary.</i></span><br />

<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>With about 2 square yards (1.7 meters squared) of exposed skin to care for, it makes sense that many people's medicine cabinets are crammed with skin-care products [source: iVillage]. But for most of us, using more than two or three of those products on a daily basis is unnecessary -- and may even be doing more harm than good.</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: lime; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><u>1: Cleansing</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Cleansing is the most basic element of any skin-care routine. It not only removes excess dirt, pollutants and pore-clogging oil from the epidermis so it can remain blemish-free, but it also preps the skin for any subsequent products you'll be using, so active ingredients (like vitamins or sunscreen) can penetrate and be most effective.</i></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kNuqTdKnWWQ/T-0sBm3SNOI/AAAAAAAAAjM/z4stcsfpSGE/s1600/rose_1_bg_030703.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kNuqTdKnWWQ/T-0sBm3SNOI/AAAAAAAAAjM/z4stcsfpSGE/s320/rose_1_bg_030703.jpg" title="imran" width="239" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>But not all cleansers are the same. First, a facial cleanser should always be soap-free; the soap products you use on the rest of your body are typically too harsh for the face. And, as with most skin-care products, you need to pick one that suits your skin type. For very dry skin, you might want to go with a creamy cleanser. Dry and/or sensitive skin should always go alcohol-free, whether creamy or not. An oily epidermis can benefit from an acidic cleanser, like an alpha-hydroxy product, which does a better job of breaking up sebum -- the skin's oily secretion that can lead to clogged pores.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Whichever cleanser is right for you, be sure to massage it into your face for at least 20 seconds so it has a chance to do its job</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Cleansing is all about the surface of the skin. Up next, going a bit deeper…</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />

<br />
<span style="color: lime; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><u>2: Water</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>The human body is full of water -- it's 55 percent to 75 percent of what we are [source: ASA]. Water flushes toxins out of the body, allows our cells to absorb nutrients, and keeps our digestive processes moving smoothly.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />

The most basic bodily processes, like breathing and sweating, remove that water from our cells. So for our cells to function properly, we need to consume lots of water to replace what we lose.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>The skin is no different from the rest of the body when it comes to needing hydration. Water helps to remove impurities from the skin that can lead to pimples, and it hydrates to keep the skin looking plump and smooth.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>To keep the skin hydrated, you should drink at least half a gallon (2 liters) of water each day</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: lime; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><u>3: Essential Fatty Acids</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Essential fatty acids, or EFAs, are an important component of any healthy diet. They help to build up the lipid-based cell membranes that hold in water and nutrients. In the case of the skin, those lipids also form an oil barrier that protects the skin from UV damage and pollutants.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />

The skin ends up overly exposed, dehydrated and prone to produce a more harmful type of sebum, leaving it dry, inflamed and blemished </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>The EFAs you need to keep your skin looking great are primarily omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Omega-6 is found in tons of foods, including poultry, grains and cooking oils, so you're probably getting plenty of that. Omega-3s are somewhat harder to come by; you'll find those in cold-water fish, like salmon and sardines, along with flaxseed and safflower oils, kidney beans, walnuts and spinach. Some skin experts also recommend another EFA, gamma linolenic acid (GLA), for its anti-inflammatory effects. GLA is founds mostly in plant oils.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>You might find it helpful to take an omega-3 or GLA supplement to improve your skin health. You'll find those in most grocery stores, and definitely any natural-foods store.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />

<br />
<span style="color: lime; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><u>4: Sun Protection</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>When you use sunscreen, you're not just helping to protect yourself from diseases like skin cancer; you're also helping to prevent the signs of skin aging that come from sun exposure. Skin that's left naked in the sun ends up more discolored and wrinkled and less elastic than skin that has been steadily shielded from UV radiation.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>In fact, what most of us think of as "aged skin" is, more specifically, sun-damaged skin.</i></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-sNDv_uy7QzQ/T-0uN_knQWI/AAAAAAAAAjs/OlfnDdVLVzk/s1600/mask.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-sNDv_uy7QzQ/T-0uN_knQWI/AAAAAAAAAjs/OlfnDdVLVzk/s320/mask.jpg" title="imran" width="260" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>To protect your skin from the effects of the sun, you can choose either a chemical sunscreen, like avobenzone or oxybenzone, or a physical one, like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Either way, look for one with a sun-protection factor (SPF) greater than 15, and apply it at least 20 minutes before you're going to be in the sun [source: Mayo Clinic]. That way, the active ingredients have time to take effect before the UV exposure begins.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>If you go swimming or have occasion to sweat a lot, be sure to reapply afterward.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: lime; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><u>5: Antioxidants</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Antioxidants are widely believed to be beneficial for both cardiovascular health and cancer prevention. They're found in all sorts of foods, including fruits, vegetables, seafood and oils. Antioxidants' free-radical-fighting activities destroy molecules that can damage healthy cells (see How Antioxidants Work to learn more), and as it turns out, they're as great for skin cells as they are for every other cell in the body.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>While many different antioxidants can be beneficial to the skin, two in particular get lots of attention:</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Vitamin C -- Builds collagen for plump, tight skin. Find it in whole grains, apples and citrus fruits. Aim for 75 milligrams a day</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>Vitamin E -- Protects cell membranes and "boosts" skin-based nutrients that fight off UV damage. Find it in wheat germ oil, almonds, and peanut butter. Aim for 15 milligrams a day.</i></span><br />
