The Golden Globes Beverage Rx For Younger Skin!

                        The Drink For Healhier Skin!

If  you're a fan of award shows, then last night was like almost
like the Super Bowl for you. Not quite the Super Bowl, but close.
And the award show that was held last night was "the Golden Globes!"
The show was entertaining and fun, thanks mostly to hosts Tina Fey and
Amy Poehler.

But the real excitement began when the show was over.
When the show was over? Yes, the after-party.
And if was like most after-parties, then that means drinking.
And if your choice of adult beverages is a martini, or a gin and tonic
or a white wine spritzer, you may want change it.
Change it? To what? A Bloody Mary!

And why a Bloody Mary you ask?
Because you the drinker can also get smoother skin as a result.
That's right, we always hear how women (especially Hollywood
women) are concerned abotut wrinkles, well this is a great way to
celebrate (movies, awards, whatever) and look a few yrs. younger to boot.

According to researchers, tomato juice in Blood Mary's  contains
 Lycopene, a compound that gives red grapefruit, peppers, watermelon
and tomatoes, their red color
also guards against free radical damage as well as the
Sun's UV rays.
But there' s a catch, the catch--too much alcohol can do serious damage
to your skin, so have one drink with vodka and the rest wth T.J.
and club soda.
Doing this helps your liver and helps you get radiant looking skin.
Plus, you won't have to worry about the Paparazi taking embarrassing
photos of you falling down drunk. It' a win-win for everyone.

That's it and you want some great recipes for other
adult beverages, head to Amazon.com/the Kindle store
and type Adult Beverages From Around The World in
the search bar. Download it and learn the recipes for over
40 drinks.

Good Luck!

GMA's Rx For Better Health!

                         Snack Like George! 

Did you catch this morning's "Good Morning America?" 

They did a cute segment where they brought in kids who 
looked like the hosts.
This morning, they had two lookalikes who resembled
Amy Robach and George Stephanopoulos. 

The kids were also tested on what they knew about the
hosts they resembled. 

The young man who resembled George, said "George eats
an apple everyday as soon as he goes off the air."
George, literally eats an Apple a Day.

If you're aware of the Apple a Day saying and aren't 

practicing it, you may want to do like George and start, why?
An apple a day can...

a) Boost heart health. 
Concerned about heart disease as you age? Don't fear it, 
have an apple a day, and block and repair damage you may
have already done.
b) Eat Less-
Concerned about your big appetite? Don't do like George,
just eat an apple or two before your 2 biggest meals.
Apples are considered "nature's best and safest diet pills.
It must work for George, he's been slim for 53 yrs. now.
c) A Better Memory-
Are you concerned you may not remember like you used to?
Build a super memory like George, and eat or even better, drink
some organic apple juice. 2 cups a day. Apples (and the juice)
raise neurotransmitters that are important to memory as you age.
d) Beautiful Skin For Life-
A woman started peeling an apple, slicing the apple, placing 

those slices in a saucepan, added a 1/4 cup of milk, heated both
the apple and milk up for a few minutes, turned off the pan, and
allowed it to cool a bit. Then, she reclined in a comfortable 

chair and placed the apples all over her face, neck and hands,
she did this for 15 to 20 minutes, and then removed the apples, 

rinsed off her face with warm water and applied her moisturizer.
She did this 2 to 3 times a week, starting in her late 30's and
today--she's 55, does it once a week and still remains wrinkle-free.
That's right- eating them or wearing them as a mask, will help you look 

yrs. younger. One tip: if you do eat them, make sure you eat the skin,
the fiber in the skin will benefit your health in a number of ways.

That's it- And for all those who wonder how George Stephanopoulos remains
so vibrant and youthful at age 53, wonder no more. It's the old Apple-A-Day trick.
And if you're wondering about Donald Trump's health secret: "The Donald" 

eats a cheeseburger every night (true story).

Good Luck!

The Golden Globe's Rx To Beat Dry Winter Hair!

                        Keep Hair Luxurious All Winter Long! 

Don't forget to watch the "Golden Globes" this weekend.
You especially want to watch the hosts--Tina Fey and Amy Poehler.
One thing you may not want to watch and especially avoid is the
commercial starring Tine Fey.
Why?
It's a hair care product from Garnier Nutrisse and it's called
"Nourishing Color Creme."
And why should you avoid it?
Because it's expensive and you can do-it-yourself for much less.

That's right- Nutrisse Garnier thinks that because it (the shampoo)
has some avocado in it, and Tina Fey is the star, they (the creators
can sell it to you at a high price.
But don't fall for it, you can do an home version for much less.
Consider it a "smoothie" for your hair, and with the brutal temperatures
in a lot of states, this "smoothie" can leave your hair luxurious and
stop the breakage.
Ingredients:
1 ripe avocado
2 tbsps. olive or coconut oil
Directions:
Mash the avocado with a big spoon, and then add
the oil,  mix until you get a creamy paste.
Sit in the tub or in an area that you won't mind getting dirty.
Dampen your hair, and place the avocado mask on your hair.
Comb the mixture through your hair, leave on for 20 minutes,
and finish up by shampooing and conditioning.

Use this treatment once a week and you'll have hair
that'll rival any movie stars.'

1 More tip for great Winter hair--
Limit your use of heat-styling tools (tools like curling irons)
which really leave your hair dry. Instead, try a no-heat styling trick,
Mist on a leave-in conditioner before going to bed and in the morning,
style your hair any way you want, waves, braids or a ponytail.

That's it--A hair care tip for this brutal and harsh Winter/

Good Luck!
