                           Eat More Grapes! 

"Modern Family", the monster ABC hit is now on in Reruns.

one episode.

is eating grapes at midnight.
What's so unusual about that?
She's following a custom from Spain, that says if you eat 12 grapes
at midnight, you'll have a healthy and prosperous New Year.
Why 12?
12 months of the year, of course.

That's it- and if you have a special dish from childhood or your homeland,
share it those around you, hey- it just might work.
And if you want more info on the foods that'll make 2014 a whole
lot better- go to Google.com and type in Good Luck Foods Rxs From

Bethenny's Rx For A Better Memory!

                        Drink Up Like Bethenny! 
Bethenny Frankel should have a great 2014. Why? 
Her talk show is doing well in the ratings, her daughter is 
growing up and she sold her line of "Skinny Girl" drinks
for a bank load of money.

If you want to be more like Bethenny, start with your memory. 
That's right- it's not only important to have good looks, but smarts
and a good memory as well. And one way to get the New Year off
with a bang and help develop a "super" memory is with Champagne.
Yes, the bubbly usually served on New Year's Eve is a delicious
(and expensive) way to improve memory. 

How does it work?
It keeps bad plaque from forming in and around your brain.
The type of plaque that causes memory loss and Alzheimer's.

But wait, there's more, if you want a little something to help usher
in the New Year, try this recipe:
A Pink Blush!
Ingredients:
1 oz. Creme de Framboise
4 oz. well-chilled Champagne
Fresh raspberries or grapes (optional)
Directions--
Pour the Creme de Framboise into frosted
Champagne flute and top off with Champagne.
Serve at once, if desired, float a few raspberries (or grapes)
in the drink.
And lastly, here are some tips concerning that btl. of Champagne.
*Open Champagne like a Pro.
Turn the bottle not cork. Remove the foil
and wine from the top of the bottle, then grip the cork
with a kitchen towel in one hand and slowly twist the bottle
back and forth with the other hand, making sure the btl. is pointed
away from you and your guests. Continue twisting slowly while gently
sliding the btl. and cork apart.
* Storing Champagne.
Store Champagne on its side in a cool dark place,
preferably in the refrigerator. Doing this means the btl will
be well chilled and ready to drink in a hurry.

That's it- And if need more great recipes for that btl of
Champagne, or brandy or Jack Daniels, look for a book
called "500 Cocktails" by Wendy Sweetser. Available at
Amazon.com/in the Kindle store.

Good Luck and A Happy New Year!

Madonna's Rx For All-Night Energy!

                            Party Like Madonna! 

Do you wonder how Madonna stays fit and trim at age 55?
Or are you curious how she's able to maintain a relationship
with a man 30 yrs. her junior?
Well, if you've been spending time wondering about these things,
wonder no more. 
It's been revealed that Madonna follows a strict diet, exercises almost
everyday, gets full body massages and drinks a beverage that's
gaining in world-wide popularity.
The Beverage:
Coconut water!

That's right- a number of people are praising the health benefits
of coconut water and a number of stars are among them.
Madonna not only drinks the stuff, she's invested some serious cash
in the coconut water business.

Why is it so beneficial?
Coconut water can help you hydrate, even more so than regular water,
plus it's packed with the healing potassium, as well as essential amino 
acids, minerals and enzymes your body needs.
And that's not all- it also helps boosts metabolism, repairs damaged cells 
and increases energy levels.
And one last benefit: One woman claimed her painful periods stopped after
she started drinking coconut water.
So, if you plan on partying this New Year's Eve and need more energy
or if you want to be as energetic as Madonna, start adding more
coconut water to your daily menu.

Good Luck!

Walt Disney's World Rxs For More Happiness-Pt. 2!

                           Boost Happiness Levels By Heading To Disneyland! 

As promised, here's the 2nd part of the post...Boosting Joy with a trip
to see Mickey and Minnie!
3) The Castles- 
Ever wonder why the castles are so tall? The architects designed
them to reach the skies, why?
When the adults and kids look up, they'll be inspired to reach for the Stars. 

4) The Water Rides-
Just looking at water has an effect on you. In fact, Feng Shui experts say
looking at water fountains or putting a small water fountain inside your home
can boost happiness and luck.
There are many water themed features at Disneyland and their there for a reason,
yes, to make money, but to also help uplift your moods and make you happier
and alert.
To get the effect long after your trip is over, add a mini waterfall to your desk,
or decorate your computer desktop with a watery image and stare at it when you're
down. Or you can buy a CD of soothing ocean waves to help lower stress levels
and boost happiness levels.
5) Take In The Scents-
No, that isn't a misprint, taking in the scents of fried foods, decadent sweets
and the chocolate treats can really boost moods. Your sense of smell is the most
closely associated with warm feelings of days gone by.
And a closely guarded secret: The people who designed Disneyland, made it point
to build machines and vents that kick out the scents of certain foods,
They hope you take in the scents and spend more money of course,
but they also want to boost happiness levels.So, when you arrive home and still want the scent of those waffle cones
or chocolate delights, invest in some scented candles or look for vanilla,
almond or chocolate extracts at your local supermarket.
Pour a little of the choc. or almond extract on a cottonball, when
you feel stressed or overwhelmed and inhale deeply.
And the best thing about the extracts- they won't put on the pounds.

That's it- And if you thought Disneyland was just for the kids, you're 
wrong,  it can help you (the adults) boost moods, lower stress levels, 
and increase creativity. 

Good Luck!

Movie Food Rx For a Better Memory!

                                 Avoid This Food At Movie Theaters! 

Hey- who loves going to the movies and ordering a big tub of
popcorn with some ooey, gooey butter on top?
We sure do, but thanks to new research we may have to stop this practice.

Why?
According to the researchers, that yellow stuff movie theaters are
passing off as "real butter" may do you some harm.
In what way? It can cause plaque, and that plaque can settle on your brain
and around your heart.

That's right- the yellow faux butter contains a chemical called Diacetyl and
if you consume a lot of it over time, it can result in heart trouble and Alzheimer's.
Another fact, some wine makers are using it in their wine to give it
a longer shelf life.

So, what are the options?
Depending on how many times a month you go to the movies, you can
eat the popcorn plain, ask for a little of it (the phony butter) or you can
get a little plastic container, fill it with olive or coconut oil and add some onion,
garlic and cayenne and sneak it into the theater. 

That's it- Our tip for keeping you safe and healthy this Holiday season.
Enjoy the upcoming movies that are out or will be out and eat to protect
your health and sanity. 

Good Luck!

Parks and Recreation Rx For Beautiful Eyes!

                             Get Smoky Eyes Like Amy! 

Any fans out there of the quirky sitcom- "Parks and Recreation?"
It's a must-see show on Thursday nights, and a lot of success for the show
has to go to Amy Poehler. 

Ms. Poehler is not only starring in the show, she's also producing it.
Although Ms. Poehler is known for her comedic talent, she's also starting to
get recognized  for her good looks on the Red Carpet.
Why now? Ms. Poehler is starting to rock the soft smoky eye look more and more.
It's a look that really brings out her beautiful blue eyes and makes a lot of
people (men) take notice.

If you have a special event coming up and want the soft smoky eye look 
like Amy, do the following...
Get a Taupe pencil, and thickly line your entire eye, then smudge it, sweeping up
at the corners. In addition to the smoky eye look, you'll also help lift your eyes.
One taupe pencil to try- Clinique Quickliner Intense in Intense Truffle.
find it online at Sephora.com. Price--$16.00.

That's it- Although we can guarantee your eyes will look better,
we can't guarantee you'll be funnier than Ms. Poehler.

Good Luck!

Walt Disney's Worlds' Rxs For More Happiness!

                            Boost Happiness With A Trip To Disneyland! 

It's not called "The Happiest Place on Earth" for nothing. 
What place are we talking about? Disneyland, of course.

If you're planning on going to Disneyland next month or in 6 months,
then make sure you really get your money's worth and boost not
only your kids happiness, but yours as well.
Going on the rides, eating sweet treats and buying souvenirs are great,
but make sure to take advantage of all the attractions, like...
1) Walk This Way-
Did you know that the designers who built this incredible park
made a lot of walkways user-friendly.
In other words, you may walk on cement for a short while and then walk 
on rubber-like material. 
This was designed to give your feet a variety of textures and those different textures
can stimulate certain pressure points on your feet. The very pressure points
that boost happiness and reduce stress levels.
So, if you're not too squeamish or frightened of germs, kick off your shoes
and take advantage of the carpeting and rubber tiles.
2) Boost Creativity-
We know, you want to relax. That's okay, you can still relax and work your mind
as well, how? By looking at and memorizing some of the round shapes you saw.
Round shapes? Yes, from Mickey's ears to the round shapes of some of the buildings,
the designers wanted every curve to flow into the next, just like the soft shape of
a human being. Round circles help put you at ease, and when you come home from
walking, eating high-calorie foods and riding on kiddie rides,  draw some circles. 
Doodling (especially circles) makes you feel more relaxed and it even increases your 
creativity. Tracing circles or squares causes a meditation-like state and helps you 
relax. It's also a great exercise for kids.

That's it for now, and at a later date, we'll tell you why watching the water rides
and taking in the scent of all of that decadent food can also boost your happiness.

Good Luck!

Homeland's Rx For Tired Feet!

                      Chocolate Sugar Scrub For Your Feet! 

If you're into pop culture, then you may know all about the
rabid fans of actress Claire Danes.
No- these aren't fans of her acting or her good looks, these
fans are obsessed with her feet.
That's right- ever since the movie "Boomerang" (with Eddie
Murphy and Halle Berry) came out, men have revealed that their
desire for beautiful feet are just as important to them as a nice pair
of legs or a big bust.

And if you have feet that'll give Claire Danes a run for her money,
and you want to keep them that way, try this at-home (inexpensive)
pedicure.
The Ingredients:
3 tbsps. sugar (white or brown) 
2 drops almond oil
1 tsp. cocoa powder
2 tsps. honey
4 drops choc. extract (find it in the baking aisle)
or use Vanilla extract.

Directions:
place all the ingredients in a large bowl.
Mix well with a spoon or your hands. 
Sit on the edge of the tub, put a little water on
your feet (not too much) and then massage the
cocoa scrub on the bottom and tops of your feet.
Be sure to really scrub the rough spots
like the heels. And  finish up by running
warm water over your feet, pat dry, apply some of your
favorite moisturizer and put on a nice pair of socks.

That's it- a simple do-it-yourself pedicure to help
get your feet ready for the Springtime.

American Hustle's Rx For A Happier Marriage!

                        A Marriage Secret From Jennifer Lawrence! 

The upcoming movie- "American Hustle" has budding superstar Jennifer Lawrence 
in it. And if you keep up with entertainment culture, then you know that Ms. Lawrence 
is the biggest movie star (under 25) in the World. 
Ms. Lawrence does a lot of press regarding her movies, and sometimes the questions
aren't about movies, but her personal life. 
Ms. Lawrence was asked about marriage and maintaining a relationship while
working as an actress.
Her reply: " I hope to be married someday and I hope it's like my mom's and dad's!"

What's so special about her parents' marriage?
Ms. Lawrence, says she's never seen them fight, and her bedroom was across the
hall from theirs and they were always laughing and joking with one another.
If you're buying self-help books or tuning into Steve Harvey everyday-hoping to
get information on how to stay married, take it from a 23 yr. old, unmarried superstar
and start telling jokes.

Couples who have a good sense of humor can resolve conflicts better and they feel more 
connected to each other.
So, if you plan on getting married or are married, start a new tradition, what is it?
Create a laugh journal and write down funny moments or jokes you may have heard.
These things will strengthen family ties and help you understand each other better.

Another fun fact: Actress Jennifer Garner,  who was working on a movie and single
at the time, said she couldn't think of anything other than Ben Affleck,
while shooting the movie, why? When they worked together,
he kept her laughing all of the time.
That's it- Remember guys, it's not a big bank account, a big car, big tattoos, or a
a big D*&-, but a big sense of humor that'll help win and keep her heart.

Good Luck!

The Hangover's Rx For Hangovers!

                       Drink This To End A Hangover! 

Are you a fan of the movie-"The Hangover?"
You remember,  4 buddies travel to Las Vegas to attend a
friend's upcoming marriage, but prior to the wedding they
have a bachelor party, drink to excess, and the next morning,
they have the mother of all hangovers.

If you plan on attending a Christmas or New Year's Eve
party, drink more than you should and then have a hangover
that makes you feel like your life is about the end, try the new
beverage cure that's winning raves.

We're sure a lot of you out there already have a top-notch
remedy for ending the headaches, the bodyaches and the queasiness,
but give this a try and see if works better than your own natural cure.
So, what's the beverage cure that'll have you feeling better than you
felt before drinking? 
It's Sprite!
Sprite the soda? Yes, sipping a glass of the lemon-lime combo,
the morning after is going to be your new go-to Rx to end that
dreaded hangover. 
Scientists tested almost 2 dozen beverages (coffee, Gatorade,
green tea) but it was the Sprite that came out on top.
The researchers think it's the sugar in the Sprite that helps your body 
process alcohol more efficiently, so you feel better faster.

That's it- a new go-to cure for the day after you overindulge.
And if you're concerned about weight, the researchers didn't
test sugar-free Sprite. But, if you want to try it, go ahead and
see if it works like regular Sprite.

The X-Factor's Rx For Healthier Kids!

                 Overcome Hardships Like Demi! 

Did you catch Demi Lovato on the T.V. show- "Hollywood Access" 
this past week?
She's promoting her new book, "Staying Strong, 365 Days A Year!"
In the book, Ms. Lovato reveals everything- her struggles with
drugs and eating disorders.

If you're a mom of a young girl or boy, you may want to listen to the 
new advice that may help keep your child off drugs,  help them
become smarter and may even help them avoid the difficulties and
heartaches of eating disorders.

What type of therapy is this?
It's Hugging!
That's right- Hug Therapy has been around for yrs.
and thanks to new research, it's gaining in popularity here in the U.S.
You may already know about the health benefits of
eating dinner together, playing board games and attending 
religious services to help kids stay out of trouble and do well 
in school, but hugging?

Yes, your hugs, kisses and encouragement shows your child you
really care for them, and  it improves signaling between your child's brain
and body, which in turn, enhances her body image and lowers her risk
of ever developing an eating disorder.
As for more brainpower:
Kids who have nurturing moms (and dads) have a 15% bigger hippocampus,
(an area of the brain involved in learning) and this helps them learn faster,
remember more and perform better in school.

That's it- A simple, painless and inexpensive way to help your kids become
happier, healthier and more successful.
And one more thing, although the research mentioned moms as the
nurturers, let's not forget the importance of kind, loving and nurturing dads.

Hollywood's Rx For A Successful Date Night!

                     Win The Man Of Your Dreams! 

Ladies, if you're a fan of romantic movies and hope to
fall in love like a character from a certain romantic movie,
then take the advice listed below.
What is it?
The old adage--when you meet a man and
exchange numbers or e-mail addresses, wait 3 days to
return his call or send back an e-mail.
Well, that was then, this is now.
What's now?
Don't wait  2 days or 3 days to respond back, according to
new research, 3 days can seem like an eternity to a man,
making him think "you're just not into him."
So, if you were taking advice from feminist writers
or Steve Harvey (author of Act like a lady, think like a man),
stop listening and call or e-mail the next day.

That's it- and if start taking numbers or e-mails now, you 
could meet that special someone by Valentine's day.

Good Luck!

The Crazy One's Rxs For Saving Money This Christmas!

                       Saving Big This Christmas! 

Who's the most frugal star in Hollywood?
Some say it's Jay Leno. Then there are those who
say it's Tyra Banks. And then some say no, it has to
be to be Sarah Michelle Gellar.
She's costarring with Robin Williams in the new CBS hit-
"The Crazy Ones" and even though she's making good money, 
Ms. Gellar hates to pay full price.

If you're similar in values and common sense like Sarah and hate to
spend full price for anything, look below and learn how to spend less on 
electronics, restaurants and clothing.
a) Restaurants-
Have you signed up for a free app from Foursquare.com?
Well, you'd better get to it, why? Doing so will tell you the local 
restaurants that are part of their network.
Then, when you go to these places, "check-in" with your smartphones to
earn badges and your mayorship to win free food. 
Another tip:
Go online to make reservations. Go online to OpenTable.com to set up 
reservations and earn reward points for every reservation, which you
can redeem for $20, $50 or $100 gift certificates to use at your favorite
eateries.
b) Electronics-
Don't think you can ask for discounts on electronic goods?
Think again, stores like Best Buy may not do as well as they
expected and that means a lot of inventory sitting around.
So, if you need or want that big screen T.V. or Ipad,
wait until after Christmas and head into that Best Buy
and negotiate.
c) Save On Shipping-
Do you enjoy shopping online? But, you probably hate paying the
shipping fees. To avoid this, ask if you can pick up your items 
at a nearby store branch.
d) Clothing-
Saving money on clothes is on a lot of peoples' wish list and
if you want to keep your money in your pocket, shop on Wednesday.
Why Wednesday?
Most weekend sales start on Wednesday or Thursday.
Don't believe it?
Macy's Friends and Family weekend sale always starts the Wednesday
before. So even though a store may be advertising a weekend sale, check their
website to discover the actual start date. You'll not only find amazing
steals and deals, but you'll also get a chance to look over a lot of selections.
Another Insider tip:
Shop here first. Where?
The Customer Service Desk!
Many stores, like...Target, Macy's and JCPenney,
have special coupons available almost every day that
you can use to save 20% or more and sadly, a lot of customers
miss out simply because they haven't been told about the coupons
at The Customer Service Desk. 

That's it- Helping you to save money this Holiday season,
and best of all...you don't need to make a top Hollywood salary
to take advantage of these deals.
And if you need more info--Go online to TheFrugalista.com and learn
how to save even more.

Good Luck!

do you happen to catch it? Neither did we.
With the holidays in full swing, a lot of us will be attending
parties and events that require us to dress to impress.
If you're carrying a little extra weight and weren't blessed
with the looks of a Victoria Secrets model, don't despair,
you can still look your absolute best, how?
By using clothes to hide your flaws.

That's right- a top stylist who worked with models for over 20 yrs.
knows how to make any woman look good, just by doing things like...
a) Hiding The Bust-
Victoria Secrets models want you to see them, but some of us
may not want our busts so prominently displayed, so to downplay them-
Choose a V-neck or scoop -neck top that shows off a little skin.
Doing this instantly shrinks the bust line, and unlike a turtleneck that wraps
you in a large bunch of fabric,  lower necklines break up the area, making
it appear smaller.
b) A Smaller Caboose-
This doesn't apply to Nicki Minaj or Kim K, but if you want your backside
smaller...choose a pair of pants with pockets.
You may think No back pockets are the way to go, but you're wrong.
In fact, the no pockets look makes your backside look bigger.
That's because it leaves you with an expanse of fabric and nothing at
all to break it up. Instead, you're better off choosing bottoms with
medium-sized pockets ( oh- about 4 inches wide) that are higher up.
Too small or too big pockets will make your bottom appear bigger
and wider. And the lower they are, the droopier the seat of your pants
will look.
That's it for now, due to time constraints, we not able to give you
the info on clothes that make your stomach and arm look smaller.
But if you want that info, plus info on choosing the right dress, 

the right color of the dress and even jewelry to make you look
thinner, head to Amazon.com/the kindle store and download a copy

Pop Diva's Rx For Looking Younger!

                   Forever Young Like Britney! 

Do you remember the Rod Stewart hit--"Forever Young?"
Well, Britney Spears knows it and she doesn't just know the
song, she's trying to achieve it.
Say what?

Ms. Spears admitted in an interview that she goes to a doctor
to get injections, pills and advice on looking younger.
Ms. Spears is only 32 yrs. old and getting shots in and around the face,
only increases your risk of looking like an exotic cat in a few yrs.
If you're 22, 32 or 42, why not allow your Supermarket to help 
keep you young.
The supermarket?

Yes, foods that'll help keep you looking younger than your
actual yrs. The foods: 
1) Orange Foods- 
Often left out of the discussion on maintaining and turning
back the clock are foods like...Carrots, Butternut and Acorn squash,
apricots and sweet potatoes. These foods are rich in vitamin A and
beta-carotene, nutrients that are important to keeping skin smooth
an firm. Sweet potatoes and carrots also help protect your skin
from the Sun's harmful rays. 
2) Citrus Fruits-
Popular this time of yr. oranges, clementines, tangerines
and grapefruit can help stimulate collagen levels, preventing
the skin from sagging and losing moisture.
3) Oily Fish-
Fish like sardines, salmon, trout, bass, mackerel and tuna
may be the no. 1 food fighter against early aging.
How important is fish? Fish can not only keep your skin
as tight and firm as a snare drum, it can also help
keep it firm in other places like...arms (no Bat wings)
the thighs and the hard to lose spot called the Stomach. 
In fact, in some parts of Spain, women use sardines as a facial 
mask, that's right- remove them from the can and let them sit
on their faces. There's no need to do that, eating them will 
do just fine. Also look for books written by Nicholas Perricone.
M.D. he writes about aging, especially the importance of eating fish.
4) Make A Mask-
A woman heard about apples and youthful skin and then came up 
with a mask. The mask: Peel an apple, rinse it off and then slice
it up and place the slices in a small saucepan. Cover the
apples with milk, heat the apples for a few minutes.
Remove from the heat, let the slices cool and place in a bowl. 
Grab a comfortable chair, lie back and place the apple slices
on your face and neck, leave on for 15 to 20 mins.
Finish up by removing the apple slices and then rinsing your
face off with warm water.
And yes, it's still a good idea to eat apples.
They're "Natural Diet Pills!"
And the women who recommended this tip- she still looks 10 to 15 
yrs. younger than her real age of 70.
Avocados also work, but are more expensive and make a big mess.
5) Eggs-
People are still frightened of eggs, but wearing them works as well
as eating them, if staying young is a goal. Reread the post--Deborah Norville's
Rx To Staying Young!"

That's it- 5 great tips to help you save money, stay out of the cosmetic
surgeon's office and look younger than your real age.
Please do us a favor and pass this info on to Ms. Britney.
Someone has to save her.

Good Luck!

can get, depending on what you ask for, you can get a drink to help
lower blood pressure, to boost heart health, to help your immunity
levels or even lower certain types of cancer. 
Still, not convinced?
Okay, look below for a recipe for a martini that'll help you boost
heart health, keep skin youthful and keep colds away. 
The drink:
A Pomegranate Margarita!
This drink is sweet, tart and salty.
Directions: 
Rub the rim of 2 margarita glasses with a lime wedge,
then swirl in coarse salt, in an ice-filled shaker,

unsweetened pomegranate juice.

a few drops of club soda.

Jessica Alba's Honesty Rx For Women!

                  Go Green Like Jessica! 

Are you aware that a lot of stars lend their names to products
that they're not that passionate about.
You know, they may do a car commercial or a beverage commercial,
for the money or just to keep their face in the public eye.
But there's one star who was so concerned about the harmful chemicals 
in cleaning products and food, she decided to do something about it.
That star is Jessica Alba and what she did is create a company that's
dedicated to using only natural products in cleaning products.

And why is this important?
According to new research, using that can of Lysol, Mr. Clean or
Easy Off Oven cleaning products can harm your health, more specifically-
your thyroid health.
That's right- the harsh chemicals can prevent thyroid hormones from working 
properly.

So, if you're still using air freshners, oven cleaning products or furniture
polish, you may want to look into buying natural cleaning products like...
something from Jessica Alba's Honest line, or make your own. 
Go online to Google.com and type--how to make your own cleaning products. 
Need more info on keeping your thyroid healthy? 
Head online to supermarketRxs@typepad.com and look for
Rachael Ray's Cookware Rx For Women.
Believe it or not, using old cookware also raises your risk of developing 
thyroid problems.

The Housewives of Atlanta Rxs Just For Women!

                       Getting Rid of Fibroids! 

Housewife of Atlanta, Cynthia Bailey, the tall, ex model, modeling agency
owner and less drama-filled member of the show recently announced she
has Fibroids.

What are they?
Benign tumors of muscular and fibrous tissues, and they typically develop
in the walls of the uterus. Fibroids cause serious period problems,
they're now the number 1 cause of hysterectomies and if you or a loved 
one is concerned with developing  this serious health issue and you want to 
prevent it naturally, look below for some natural preventative Rxs.
a) Eat More Legumes-
You know legumes, navy beans, black beans and lentils.
These types of food can cut your risk of developing fibroids
by 20%. Legumes are loaded with minerals that help your liver
flush out excess estrogen, a proven fibroid developer.
Another food that works as well: Turnips!
Also important: Make sure to prepare the turnips and beans in
a way that are health. No beans made into a chili with beef and
sausage or frying up the turnips in bacon fat. Fatty foods, 
white processed carbs, trans fat and sugary beverages increase
your risk of developing fibroids by 75%.
b) Leafy Greens and Tomatoes-
Combining dark greens with tomatoes can cut your risk
by 40%. Combining leafy greens with tomatoes give your
system the vitamins and minerals needed to stop fibroids
from ever developing. 
c) Exercise- 
Do you hate to exercise? Well, if you want to cut your risk
of fibroids by 60%, then you must take up some form of exercise. 
Aerobic exercise especially, helps boost circulation to the pelvic
area, flushing away damaging estrogen. And the exercise
doesn't have to running, walking 20 to 30 mins. a day 
will do the trick.
d) Get Some Sun-
This may be difficult if you live in a place that doesn't get
Sun in the Winter months, and if that's the case you need to take
vitamin D supplements. Vitamin D shuts down the abnormal cells
that turn into fibroids while leaving healthy cells alone.
Take a minimum of 2,000 IUs a day. 

There you have  it, 4 natural solutions to preventing a serious
health issue, far too many women may help to deal with.
And lastly, if you experience abdominal pain, long-lasting bloating
or heavy, painful periods head to your local healthcare provider
immediately.

Good Luck!

The Kardashian's Rx For Preventing Winter Weight Gain!

                          Stay Slim This Christmas! 

In less than 3 weeks another Christmas will be here,
and for many that means weight gain.
With the rich and fattening foods everywhere you look,
it's almost impossible not to gain weight this year.
If you're one of the millions that will gain between 3 to 15 lbs.
this Holiday season, do something the Kardashian women do
and prevent it.
What is it? 
They wear Jeans.

Yes Jeans, you may think of them in designer dresses most of the
time, but at home relaxing, they love their jeans.
And new research says that a good pair of jeans may help women
and (men) stay slim and trim.
How?

Most of us have gotten used to the loose and comfy pair of sweats
and that may cause some of us to overdo it... at the dinner table.
Cooking, cleaning and even eating in sweats can contribute to
weight gain, because they don't give you any warning that you've had
enough. And a pair of jeans will do the opposite.
They (the jeans) will act like a pair of Spanx, and when you start to get
comfortable at the table and overdo it, the waistband on the jeans
will let you know.

So, if this is your favorite time of year, make sure to prevent the
weight gain that comes with it and wear a pair of Jeans.

And if you like this tip, head to Amazon.com/the kindle store
and pick up a copy of The Thin Girl's Guide To Preventing Winter
Weight Gain!
Order it and you'll learn some modeling tips on how
to stay slim and trim, no dieting required.

Low-Cost Facial Rx For Worn Out Winter Skin!

                            Low Cost Mask For The Winter! 
Tis the season for fatty foods, salty foods, lack of sleep
and concerns about finances. All of these things combined will 
you worn out physically and mentally, they'll also leave your face
looking dried out and puffy.

There's a spa secret that'll help you rejuvenate your that dry, dull skin, 
but only a select few (like movie and music stars) can afford spa
treatments.
But wait, we looked around and asked some of the best alternative healers
out there if they had any suggestions, (low-cost suggestions, and here's
what they came up with...
In a blender, place 4 slices of cucumbers, and a 1/2 cup of plain
yogurt, blend until smooth. Lie back and place the cuke/yogurt mixture
over your clean, dry face and leave on for 15 mins. Rinse off with
warm water. 
The cucumber and yogurt help reduce the inflammation (from the lack of
sleep and the holiday snacking).

So, if you find that your face is the worse for wear, remember the 2 food
combo facial mask.
Another tip--you also have to get adequate amounts of sleep, stop obsessing 
over finding the perfect gifts and limit the heavy, carb-laden foods you put
into your mouth.

Good Luck!
