A Surprising Trick for Younger-Looking Skin

When we’re younger, we tend to have only a vague notion of getting older. We feel a bit invincible. We don’t really think about how our skin and our bodies are going to look in another decade or two.

But then one day you look in the mirror and it feels like someone else is looking back at you. Inside, you still feel young. But your face tells a different story. You start to see the signs of aging, such as fine lines or sagging skin. At that moment you realize you need to do something.

The cosmetic industry would have you slather on all types of beauty products, including their anti-aging creams. But the truth is, most of these miracle creams and serums don’t work. They might make your face feel good when you put them on, but all they’re doing is temporarily masking your skin problems. Worse yet, many of these creams and serums actually contain ingredients that will further damage your skin.

You’ll also see certain circles pushing for surgical enhancements. They’ll suggest injections, lifts and tucks to rid your face of the sagging and fine lines. But of course these are expensive, risky treatments.

If you’re like a lot of women, then what you’re looking for is something natural. You want a safe and effective way to prevent or reverse the signs of aging. So let me share with you one of the best-kept secrets in anti-aging circles: Shiatsu facial massage.

Shiatsu massage works by applying pressure to specific points on the face. This relaxes your facial muscles, which in turn helps prevent the fine lines that develop from stress-related furrowed eyebrows, frowning and so on.

The second thing the massage does is stimulate your lymphatic system. This stimulation, along with improving your blood circulation, helps your body carry away the toxins which are damaging your skin. This can improve the color of your skin, get rid of redness and puffiness, tighten your pores, and give your skin a healthy, radiant glow.

As mentioned, Shiatsu massage works by stimulating specific pressure points which are just underneath your skin. These points, which are intersections of your blood, lymph and nervous systems, are located all over your face and body. On your face you can find them just below your eyebrows, at the corner of your nose, at the corner of your mouth, and in a curved line just above your jaw line.

Stimulation is very simple. All you have to do is use the pad of your finger to apply gradually increasing pressure to one of these points for the count of three, then you slowly decrease the pressure for another count of three. There are over 30 pressure points on the face, so you’ll want to be sure your massage stimulates each of the important points.

5 Critical Keys to Kill Your Cellulite

One of our contributing experts recently put together a kick-butt article that is the “Do This – and DON’T Do That” rule-book when it comes to getting rid of unsightly cellulite dimples, shadows and ripples. It’s a quick read with some eye-opening tips and a helpful video that you’ll want to see while it’s still up.
———————————————————————————————————————-

-contributed by – Joey Atlas, Womens’ Body Enhancement Specialist — M.S., Exercise Physiology“
 
“Ask any woman on the street what the definition of “cellulite” is and you’ll get a confused variety of answers. From “toxic fat pockets caught in the skin” to “bands of fiber pulling down on the skin” and many odd things in between…”

Cellulite Gone – Bikini On

The truth is: most people really don’t know what “cellulite” actually is, or, what causes this odd appearance of the lower body trouble zones…”

This is no surprise as there actually is no such thing as ‘cellulite’… So how do we get rid of something which doesn’t exist?”

Here’s the answer:

“The word, “cellulite”, was cleverly made-up several decades ago, in a European beauty-spa, to DESCRIBE the bumpy, shadowy and dimpled appearance of skin in the lower body trouble zones of the female body. (butt, hips, thighs, legs)”

The beauty spas then started cashing-in and profiting big-time by marketing “beauty” services and products to get rid of “cellulite”. And if you’re like most women who’ve been challenged by this issue, then you probably already know all of those passive and superficial beauty treatments do not get rid of the dented shadows and mushy dimples on your buns, legs and thighs.”

In order to make your lower-body smooth, tight and attractive, there are 5 steps to follow.

Here they are:

5 Critical Keys to KILL Your Cellulite

1: You cannot get rid of the dimples and shadows (cellulite) by rubbing an odd gel, weird lotion or goopy cream on your trouble zones and problem spots.

So, stop using them – as some can actually make your cellulite worse.

Despite the fact that there are dozens of supposed ‘cellulite reduction creams’ on the market, there is no possible way for any one of them, no matter how expensive, to get rid of your cellulite. Cellulite is not a skin problem. Its an underlying structural issue, that can only be corrected by reversing the cause of atrophied muscle fibers directly beneath your “cellulite” trouble spots.”

Since the squishy dimples and shadows are a superficial symptom of a problem below the surface; it’s impossible for the creams, lotions or gels to have any physiological impact on the cause of the issue…”

2: Risky and expensive ‘medi-spa treatments’ can only reduce your bank account – not your cellulite problems. And there are many consumer reports about women being seriously scarred or injured as well.

Stay away from these as the FDA reports show women who’ve been scarred or injured for life.

Painful, dangerous and uncomfortable services ranging from endermologie to body-wrapping have been proven to be totally ineffective when it comes to treating cellulite. However, advertising and marketing loopholes allow these services to be cleverly marketed to desperate women who are at wits end with the unattractive dimples and shadows on the lower-body problem areas.”

3: The unattractive dimples, shadows and saggy ripples known as cellulite are not ‘genetic’ and you are NOT stuck with them forever if you have them.

Falsely believing this will prevent you from getting rid of your cellulite. So, don’t entertain this nonsense for 1 second.

These two ridiculous myths are often passed around by ‘neighborhood know-it-alls’ – and many women actually believe these 2 myths – especially if they haven’t found the right way to get rid of the cellulite. Whats even more alarming are the number of doctors who also believe in and foster these 2 demoralizing falsehoods.

Yes – it is common to see a mother and daughter, both with the lower-body “orange peel” look, BUT this doesn’t mean cellulite is genetic – it simply means both women have not found a way to lift, tone and firm the muscle layers under the dimpled, saggy skin.”

4: You can get rid of cellulite, regardless of your age – or when you began to notice it.“

Since cellulite is a structural issue (muscle) – it can be fixed with simple and unique body movements which target the cellulite areas.”

These types of moves can be followed by any woman, regardless of her age or fitness level. And it doesn’t matter if the cellulite started in the early teen years – or after pregnancy – or after menopause – it’s still a structural issue that results from soft, un-toned muscles underneath the saggy, dimpled, shadowy skin.”

5: The only proven way to permanently get rid of the dimples and shadows of cellulite is through a series of simple, yet specifically targeted lower-body movements“

These unique movements focus on lifting, shaping and toning the muscle layers so they gently push outward against the skin – to bring back the smooth, tight and sexy appearance, while burning off any excess flab, if there is any.”

This is how regular women reverse the cause of cellulite dimples and shadows… AND, if there happens to be any excess fat in those zones – it will be burned off as fuel by the muscles. This bonus of losing any unhealthy excess body-fat is nice because it reveals a great body and it works wonders for your health profile.“

BUT you won’t learn about these unique slow-tempo movements in the gym or your local health club.”

These body movements are NOT done with typical weights and machine type exercises.” “Most regular fitness instructors don’t even know about this type of targeted cellulite-killing method. (click to watch video)“

These muscle-stimulating movements can be done right at home, in total privacy.“

– The female lower-body has over 90 muscles…“

Picture those 90 muscles BENEATH your skin’s surface in your legs, butt, hips and thigh zones. That’s where the magic happens in regards to true removal of mushy dimples and saggy shadows in the trouble spots and problem areas…

Despite what most women have been led to believe, there is a critical difference between a ‘general workout program’ – and a laser-focused, cellulite removal method. The sweetest benefit of this is; you don’t need access to a health club or fitness center.” …”Just click PLAY on this video by Joey Atlas, (M.S., Ex.Phys.) and get it started now:” (it opens in a bigger screen so you don’t miss a thing)

These are simple, unique moves you can start doing today, right in the privacy of your own home. And if you start this type of targeted muscle stimulation method today – you will start feeling results within 2 weeks and seeing results within 3 to 4 weeks.“

So, watch the video above to avoid further frustration, disgust and anger. It’s your body so just do the right thing for it.“

Unfortunately (or, perhaps, fortunately!), you can’t smell your own bad breath. Even if you cup your hand over your mouth and nose, and take a sniff right after you breath out, you’re really only smelling your own hand, not your breath.

That’s because, despite the fact that bad breath contains all kinds of nasty stuff that would make you wretch if it came from someone else, the problem usually develops so slowly and so gradually that you simply become used to the smell from yourself. Your body becomes so acclimatized to the specific concentrations of nasty stuff in your bad breath, that you simply don’t notice it anymore!

That’s not true for other people though! They absolutely notice it. Even if they have bad breath themselves, their body is only acclimatized to the specific concentrations of nasty smells they themselves emit – not the stuff you exude! In most cases, people only become aware of having a bad breath problem by the reactions of those around them. If you notice people suddenly stepping back when you come near, it’s a good indicator that something is wrong.

That’s a pretty embarrassing way to find out though. So, if you think you have bad breath, but don’t want to go around asking people if you can breathe on them to find out for sure, you might be interested in some simple bad breath tests you can do right now…

1. The Hand Test:

Probably the easiest and best-known way is to simply lick the back of your hand, and let it dry for 5 or 10 seconds. Then sniff it. This works because you’ve transferred some of the ‘stuff’ that makes your breath smell on to your hand, while removing your actual breath (which you can’t smell) from the equation.

2. The Gauze Test:

You could also wipe your tongue with a large piece of gauze or cotton wool, and let that dry in the same way as above. This works for the same reason (as licking your hand) but has the added advantage of allowing you to check for a yellowish stain on it. If you notice that, it’s a very strong indicator of a bad breath problem.

3. The Spoon Test:

Take a regular spoon from your kitchen, turn it upside down, and gently scrape it along the surface of your tongue. Again, let it dry and smell it. This also works for the same reason as above.

4. The Floss Test:

You can also take a piece of dental floss (or dental tape) and run it between some of your back teeth. Let that dry too, and then smell it. Although, in virtually all cases, the (bad breath) problem doesn’t actually originate from the teeth, there is still enough ‘stuff’ that produces the bad smell between them to give a good indication of a problem. This method will also give you an idea of what your bad breath smells like to other people.

5. The Mirror Test:

Look into a mirror, and stick your tongue out as far as you can. Does your tongue have a white coating on it? The intensity of this coating will give a reasonably good idea of the intensity of your bad breath. Also, in general, the farther back (towards your throat) that white coating extends, the worse the problem.

Also, another good indicator of a bad breath problem is if different foods and drinks (like dairy foods, alcohol, soda, and sugar) affect your taste. This includes alcohol-based mouthwash.

It’s possible to undergo a very accurate scientific test at a specialist bad breath clinic too. There, doctors will use special instruments, such as a ‘Halimeter’, to examine and classify the chemical compounds present in your breath. However, these will cost you several hundred (and, in some cases, several thousand) dollars, and are unlikely to be covered by any health or dental insurance plans. They also have other drawbacks too: Certain foods such as garlic and onions produce sulfur in the breath for as long as 48 hours and can result in false readings. The instruments are also very sensitive to alcoholic drinks, so much so that even using alcohol-bases mouthwashes will give inaccurate results. They also lose sensitivity over time anyway, and require periodic recalibration to remain accurate.

While all of the above are excellent ways to test for bad breath, the simple truth is, if you think you have bad breath, then you probably do: As mentioned earlier, most people become aware of the problem by the reaction of those around them. Humans are highly social animals and, as such, can detect a negative reaction in another person from a mile away (even if, as is the case with bad breath, that reaction is involuntary). If people turn away… step back… and cover their nose and mouth when you’re near them, then the above tests probably aren’t even necessary… you can make a pretty safe assumption that you do have a problem!

Nowadays the market abounds in almost any type of product. Brands after brands are released and made stronger just to sell the same products, with the same recipes and same purposes. Rarely a new and revolutionary product appears and when this happens, hundreds of similar products appear in the following weeks or months. With this entire confusion and with the struggle of having the best product ever, many costumers no longer know what product to purchase in order to satisfy their needs. If the choice is easier to make when it comes to food, clothes or useful objects around the house, when it comes to skin care products the choice becomes more and more difficult as you just see the product, but are not able to see if it will work for you or not. Thus, it is mainly a trial and error experience until they find the product that will satisfy all their needs.

Yet, in order to be on the right path towards finding the product, there are some things a customer must know and take into consideration when buying skin whitening products. The first, and probably the most obvious one, is the skin type and color. The skin whitening products are made up for different types of skin, ranging from dark skin to light or yellowish skin, thus in order to find a product to work for you, it must be necessarily made for your color of skin.

There are also 3 different skin types which are applicable to all skin colors. These types of skin are dry skin, oily skin and normal skin. According to your type of skin all skin care products should be chosen, including the skin whitening products.

Another thing which should be known when purchasing skin whitening products is that some of them may contain irritant substances or even substances which may have serious side effects for people with sensitive skin or for pregnant women. A very good example in this direction is the hydroquinone, a substance which is reported to cause fetal malformations and even affect the pregnant woman. Thus, you should look carefully on the ingredients contained by that product and see whether you are allergic to one of them or if the product is safe for you.

Also, the date of production, the date of expiration as well as the number of days in which the product should be used after is opened should be written on the bottle or package of the product. This is highly important as some substances may change their properties after a certain period and if applied on skin may further increase the problems.
Skin whitening products can be found anywhere on the market. Yet, purchase your sample from a reputable pharmacy, where specialized personnel will be able to answer all your questions and give you all the information you need in order to choose well.

Resource box:
Not all the skin whitening products have side effects and cost lots of money. Try the recipes gathered in this e-book and you will see how you can get rid of brown spots in a matter of weeks, in a simple, cheap and safe way. You will never need anything else for your skin!

Discover Something to Motivate You to Exercise

Even though most people are aware of how significant exercise is to weight reduction, many have trouble making themselves do it. There are others who never can seem to find the time. Reality is that developing an exercise routine can be difficult when you are starting out. The key is developing a lifestyle that is accommodating to an exercise routine.

One thing is for sure: you need to get involved with an exercise plan that will keep your attention. In other words, I want you to be involved in exercises that you enjoy. This will make it natural to get into the daily routine since you want to do it.

You can even stay home and exercise. For many people this is key because the time and effort it takes to go to a gym often precludes participation in an exercise program. I use a spare bedroom, but I don’t have fancy equipment as you might expect. I don’t need it and neither do you. What you do need is a balance ball and weights that can be adjusted. A mat helps as well as a stationary bicycle. That’s it. You don’t need a lot to get a fat loss program going. By having a way to exercise at home, you will find that it is easy to work out when you don’t have to go across town. The truth is that many people don’t exercise because they don’t like where they exercise.

What I want you to think about is what might make your exercise time more fun. Whatever you do, you will find that building it on the foundation of activities you enjoy is the key to developing a lifetime of fitness.

You can begin your fitness program together with a good diet. You can find tips for both in the Fat Loss Factor.

Most women have have lost faith in their ability to slim down the stubborn fat on their thighs, hips, butt or the backs of their arms…
Maybe you’ve felt this before too?… You go on a “diet” and lose a bunch of weight, yet when you look in the mirror your “trouble spots” actually look WORSE…
And there’s no way you’re fitting back into the “skinny jeans” waiting for you in the closet.

Truth is, you may have actually stored MORE fat on your troublesome fat zones, even as you lost weight from other parts of your body! Sounds crazy right?…
There’s even a name for it… Female-Pattern Fat Storage.
And it’s caused by something called “adrenorecptors” on your fat cells. You’ve got two kinds…
Your Beta receptors are the good guys — they trigger fat burning…
Your Alpha receptors are naughty — they trigger fat storage!…

Now the bad news…
It’s now clear that women have 9X more Alpha receptors on their stubborn fat!…

Worse…
Common nutrition advice and excessive exercise can actually trigger your Alpha receptors and suppress your Beta receptors — causing you to strip fat from your easy-to-lose areas and re-store it on your trouble spots. Uh oh!…

My good friend and Australian body transformation specialist Sue Heintze battled with this for years…
In fact, when she was in her teens, her mom and sister used to tease her: “Sue, you’re bum is getting big…”
That lead to decades of battling body image issues, and lead her to become a fitness competitor and one of the most sought after female fatloss experts in the world…
Yet she still battled with stubborn bum and thigh fat until she stumbled on some hidden research that revealed the connection between your Beta receptors and the solution to trouble spot fat…
Since then, she has tested and perfected it on herself and thousands of women via her books and programs. You can meet some of those women on this page.
Now, she is finally ready to release the full system!

It’s called The Beta Switch.

And it’s the only complete weight loss lifestyle for women that specifically targets your female-pattern fat by switching on the fat-burning power of your Beta receptors, without restricting your favorite foods or doing excessive exercise.

To celebrate the release, TODAY you will also be receiving Sue’s popular 9 Day Drop A Jeans Size Diet absolutely FREE as a thank you for taking action…

Best Way to Stop Hair Loss

There are many ways that you will be able to use to stop hair loss, but not all of them will work for your benefit. Of course you will still be able to take the conventional route and use medically formulated products to prevent your hair from falling off, but take note, you might experience side effects in using them – some of which can be surprisingly enough, hair loss. So, what is the best way to stop hair loss? Here are some of them:

Drink Plenty of Water:
There are many problems that can arise from dehydration. Constipation, eczema, thick dandruff, wrinkled skin, foul breath, thick dandruff and hair loss. Remember that your body is 98% water so you need to make sure that optimal levels are kept all of the time. One easy way to quickly establish enough water inside your body is to routinely drink at least about eight ounces of water immediately after heading for the restroom.

Eat Biotin rich foods:
Biotin is a B vitamin that’s needs needed by the body to form fatty acids and glucose, which are essential for the production of energy and preventing various disorders, including hair loss. It also helps with metabolizing carbohydrates, fats and proteins. The good news is that you really don’t have to search very far to get your daily dose of biotins as they are found naturally in food. Good dietary sources of biotins include; brewer’s yeast, egg yolk, sardines, legumes, mushrooms, salmon, carrots.

Natural supplements:
There are many natural supplements you can take which will prove beneficial for not only your hair but your body as well.

Some of these natural supplements include:

Ginseng: Ginseng is an ancient herbal remedy used by many to restore hormonal function and balance – a detail you might want to pay closer attention to especially when the hair loss problem you are is caused by hormonal imbalance.

Nettle: Is another rich source of silica and is a great conditioner for your nail, having the very same effect as equisetum. These products can be readily found in health foods stores and have also been guaranteed for safety and effectiveness.

Aside from the methods mentioned above, there are many other approaches that you can take in order to keep your hair always in tip top shape and prevent further damage from hair loss. If you are looking for a definitive guide on the best way to stop hair loss however, totalhairregrowth.com will have all the additional information that you need.

Best Natural Hair Loss Treatment

But if you are really looking for options that can produce real results then you might want to dig a little deeper into the products available as not all of them will work effectively in your case.

But before we take a look at the possible candidates of products and the companies that carry them, it might be a good idea to learn more about the causes of your particular condition first. This will make your approach to stop hair loss more effective and targeted. So, without further ado, here are some of the best natural hair loss medications and treatments out there in the market today:

Thicker Fuller Hair: Is one company which carries many natural hair protection and restoring products like shampoos, gels, sprays and conditioners, all of which work great. Currently they’ve made a few changes to their formula which most agree have improved it.

Best Hair Loss Treatment for Men

Looking for the best hair loss treatment for men? Then don’t be surprised to find that there are actually not that many. The reason is very simple – each individual will have his own idea on what is considered to be the best treatment due to varying reasons and factors. For some, it might be the use of conventionally developed creams; others find medicated shampoos to be the solution, while others still think that there is no better treatment aside from hair transplant.

Sure, hair transplants are indeed effective, but not many can afford the cost and conventional medications might bring about various side effects as well. Men generally play a hit or miss game where hair loss is concerned, heading for the next biggest fad in hair loss prevention and hoping that they themselves will get the solution that they have been hoping for.

But what most men tend to miss is the fact that sometimes the best solution for their problem is already within their reach, they only fail to realize it due to the growing concern that they have regarding their problem. One of the most underestimated methods in treating hair would be the natural route. Many men do not even start considering using natural products until they have exhausted what is available in terms of conventional treatments and medications.

Hair supplements like Ginseng, Horsetail, Nettle, Valerian, Zinc, Saw Palmetto, Black Currant Oil, Capsicum, Red Sage and others can be effectively used along with natural shampoos, creams, and gels to create an effective and highly individualized treatment that any individual will be able to benefit from. The best part about all of this is the fact that they will generally cost a lot lesser as compared to conventional treatments and are devoid of any side effects.

Diet adjustment and sufficient water intake are two other methods that not many pay attention to, because they may seem distant from the problem. But if you really think about it, your hair also utilizes some of the nutrients that go into your body, and the lack of vitamins in your food will also equate to problems with your hair, the same goes for water.

So what is the best hair loss treatment for men? There are many and it is your job to find out which particular one will work well for you. If you however would like to know more about the options available, one site that will be able to give you more facts and useful information would be, totalhairregrowth.com, so do check it out and start working on your best hair treatment approach today!
