Health And Beauty Tip - Don't Starve Your Skin! |

To win the battle against the effects of time and the
environment, we need to do more than just apply lotions and
creams to our faces. No matter how sophisticated the ingredients
grow, those anti aging creams only improve the appearance of the
dead layers of skin on the surface. To reach the deeper, living
cells, we need to nourish ourselves from within.
Juices are an great way to get vital antioxidants,
phytonutrients, and vitamins in fruits and vegetables we
normally would not eat regularly. For example, pomegranate juice
has been found to prevent the thickening of the arteries if
drunk daily, as well as slow down the oxidation of cholesterol.
And new research indicates it may have a much stronger
antioxidant effect than red wine and green tea. Beauty foods

make these delicious fruits part of a regular diet. If you can't
get fresh berries, or they're too expensive, try frozen berries
as they still retain their nutritional value.

his approach to the body, suggests these juices for good skin
health:
* Carrot, celery and lemon juice
* Cucumber, lettuce, and pineapple juice
* Half a glass of cucumber juice with half a glass of water
TCM sees healthy skin function in relation to how well the other
organs of elimination function. The skin is considered an organ
of elimination as it excretes about one quarter of the body's
wastes through perspiration. The other organs of elimination are
the kidneys, the lungs, the liver and the bowels. The rationale
behind considering the excretory organs as a whole when
addressing skin health, is that if one of the organs is
overloaded, or not doing its job properly, it |

Global warming, decreasing ozone layer, exposure to multiple chemicals and cosmetics, faulty lifestyles and wrong eating habits, invasive fashions and the changing human behavioural patterns has lead to multiple skin problems from minor to those of major life threatening ones.
We've all wished for a magic potion to make acne disappear. The unfortunately reality is that there is no single proven method of curing acne. There are several underlying factors that contribute to an acne breakout.
Everyone is susceptible to developing zits, thus the market for acne products is definitely huge. There will never be a lack in interested buyers who are willing to try on new products like creams, ointments, and lotions, among others.
