Anti - Aging Home Made Treatement

* 1/2 cup brown sugar
* 2 TBS safflower, sunflower, sweet almond or jojoba oils
* 1 TBS shredded glycerin soap or liquid glycerin (optional)
* 1/4 cup honey
* 1 teaspoon vitamin E oil
* 1 tsp teaspoon each of grapefruit, lime and orange juice or
* essential oils. (Note: if using these essential oils avoid exposing skin to direct sun for at least 24 hours)

(1) This simple recipe is a great anti-aging spa treatment for home! Use it 2-3 times weekly for smoothing and detoxifying rough skin! The natural acids in the sugar act as a gentle exfoliant and will reveal newer, younger skin cells. Honey is a natural humectant (and an excellent skin cleanser/makeup remover for all skin types!) and will help the skin retain moisture, and the salts and citrus help detoxify and balance oils. This is an invigorating scrub so rub gently! Works very well backs of on legs, feet, knees & elbows. Essential oils may be purchased from a reputable health or whole foods store or online. The other ingredients can be found in the grocery store.

(2) Mix all ingredients in a clean bowl.

(3) Spoon into a clean wide mouthed jar. Keep tightly covered & store in refrigerator for up to two weeks. Allow to come to room temperature before use. The oil will settle on the top, just stir together before using.

(4) To use, wet area to be scrubbed. Using 1-2 Tablespoons at a time, gently scrub the area in a circular motion. Rinse well and move to next area. Bath gloves or a thick washcloth work best for good exfoliation.

(5) When finished, pat skin dry with a towel. No moisturizer needed!

* Any essential oils of choice or preference may be substituted.
* If you are sensitive or allergic to citrus or citrus oil, you can substitute brewed green tea, chamomile tea or apple cider vinegar.
* Do not use before sun exposure. Exfoliation can cause skin sensitivity. Wait 24-48 hours before tanning.
* Not recommended for faces
* The oils will make the tub or shower very slippery. Please be careful when using!
* Please check for sensitivities before using any essential oils! If you are pregnant, please check with your physician or health care provider first.
* Please use essential oils, not fragrance oils as they can cause skin irritation.

Stay Energized All Day


Top 10 Tips to Stay Energized All Day

Getting through the day can feel like a marathon. Mile 1: Roll out of bed. Mile 2: Feed yourself and everyone else in your house. Mile 3: Get to work on time. It's like you've run 5K, and it's not even lunch yet! Nutritionist Monique Ryan, MS, RD, the author of Sports Nutrition for Endurance Athletes, knows the secrets to get through real marathons. I asked her to pass some advice down to us mortals who simply want to stay alert until sundown.

1. Start the day right. Yes, that means breakfast. Combine a whole grain with fruit, skim dairy, or soy milk, and even add some lean protein to the mix to sustain energy levels throughout the morning. Cooked oatmeal with yogurt and a banana or Lite Mueslix with soy milk and blueberries are good choices.

2. Have a mid-morning snack. Combine a protein and a carbohydrate. It is fine to be hungry mid-morning, so honor your hunger and give your body fuel when it is asking for it. Try yogurt with a peach, low fat string cheese with an apple, or cottage cheese and grapes.

3. Eat lunch on time. Don't push back lunch until you are ravenous. Instead, eat your mid-day fuel right on time to keep your blood glucose levels nice and steady.

4. Boost your mental energy. Nature's nutrition for the brain are omega-3 fatty acids. Add light tuna or salmon to your lunchtime food choices, in addition to walnuts, tofu, and canola oil. Healthy fat keep you feeling full for a longer period of time, so add small amounts to meals and snacks. Some good choices include avocado and almonds.

5. Start the day with moderate caffeine levels and keep caffeine intake modest. While it does increase mental energy, too much caffeine may lead to energy highs and then lows, and it can interferes with quality sleep.

6. Limit processed foods high in sugar. Avoid the office candy jar, treats, and vending machine whenever possible. Processed foods do not provide sustained energy and can result in low-energy moments during the day.

7. Consume foods high in folate. Higher levels of blood folate have been associated with faster and better thought processing. Good sources include lentils, chickpeas, black beans, asparagus, broccoli, avocado, and orange juice. Also important are vitamins B6, found in bananas and spinach, and B12, found in lean proteins and skim dairy products.

8. Have an afternoon snack. If dinner is late or if you have an evening workout scheduled, fruits, vegetables, and low-fat yogurt provide energizing carbohydrate.

9. Consume complex carbohydrates that contain fiber. The fiber allows the carbohydrates to be released more slowly, providing sustained energy. Opt for whole grain bread, whole wheat pasta, brown rice, and whole grain cereals.

10. Stay hydrated. About two-thirds of our body is water, and dehydration can contribute to reduced energy levels. About 80% of the fluid we consume comes from the fluids we drink, and the other 20% comes from foods. Always drink when you are thirsty, and have water available during the day to hydrate regularly.
