Kim Kardashian's Rx For Avoiding Colds

                               The Soles Of Kim Kardashian!
With the holiday season in full swing, we still have to remember it's cold season.
And that's the point of this post. To remind you take special care and not get sick.

The old ways to avoid colds...Wash your hands a few times a day, eat some plain
yogurt (probiotics) sing out loud each day or add some garlic to your daily menus
are great tips, but there's one more...
The tip: Watch your shoes, more specifically-the soles.

That's right- Kim Kardashian who not only loves to buy them, but sell them
as well, can help keep you cold-free this Winter. How?
The soles of your shoes can harbor over a hundred thousand germs, germs that
can put your health at serious risk.

So, how do avoid this?
Kick off your shoes at the door, especially if you have rugs,
and wash the bottom of your shoes with a disinfecting agent
or some bleach and water, once a week.

And one more tip: Keep slippers at the door, (for all family members)
and really reduce your risk of infections.

That's it- a tip to stay cold and flu-free. And feel free to pass this tip onto
Kim Kardashian, but with her recent problems, (marital issues)
she may not be too concerned about the soles of her shoes.

Good Luck!

Sheryl Crow's Rx For Thinning Hair!

                                    Sheryl Crow and Thinning Hair!
Sheryl Crow, grammy award winning singer and songwriter
was faced with a problem that's happening to a lot of women today,
the problem: Thinning Hair!

Why does it happen?
Exposure to the Sun, free radicals and pollution
break down the collagen and elastin in the skin on the scalp.
This ages and shrinks hair follicles, so hair comes in thinner and thinner.
And don't forget that other female problem: Hormones.
This can cause women to lose about 10% of their hair every few years.
This results in droopy and thinning locks which can make you
look a little older than your actual age.
And don't forget, Ms. Crow fought a battle with breast cancer, and
that also contributes to thinning hair.

So, if you're fighting the thinning hair battle, perhaps a change
in conditioners is all you need to remedy it.
Try a conditioner that has a "negative charge."

Why this type of conditioner?
Hair is made up of negative ions, and most of the conditioners
are infused with positive ions so the product is attracted to the
strands- but a conditioner with too many positive ions
can weigh hair down. But products labeled "volumizing"
are formulated with negative ions that repel from strands,
leaving a lighter coating, so you hair appears bouncier and
thicker. 

A conditioner to make the hair look fuller:
Nexxus Sublime Volume Conditioner- 13.5 oz, price- $15,
and find it online at-Drugstore.com.

One more fun fact: Rain also contains negative ions,
so if live in city where it rains a lot, (Seattle and Portland)
walk around without a head covering or an umbrella,
once in a while.

Good Luck!

J Lo's Rx For Younger Looking Hair!

                             Get J Lo's Hair Color!
Jennifer Lopez is like most women... she really cares about her hair.
With a new boyfriend who's some 18 yrs younger than she is,
Ms. Lopez wants her hair to match her face, body and attitude.
And one way to do that: Keep your hair in tip-top shape.
Ms. Lopez,  was concerned about the gray hair
that seemed to appear overnight.

Why does it (gray hair) happen?
Hair follicles produce enzymes that break down hydrogen peroxide
molecules that naturally occur in the skin. But getting older, hormones and
stress, these enzymes slowly decrease. allowing hydrogen peroxide
to build up and strip the hair of it's natural color.

As a result- the hair gets gray, dry and wiry.
Yes, we know- gray hair is a sign of aging and we should "just live
with it." But, who wants to look older, when you're face and body
still look good?

So, to get younger looking hair, to go with your face and body,
do the following...

Pick up a paintbrush with 1and 1/2"-wide nylon bristles (about $2)
The point of using a brush--The bristles ruffle up the grays's compact cuticle
so the color pigments can be better absorbed.
To do this...Pour the dye of your choice into a bowl and use a brush
to apply the color to the roots. Then gently scrub the brush back
and forth across the strands.

That's it- Your Rx to looking younger, we can't guarantee you'll look like
J Lo or snag a younger man, but it'll make you look younger and feel better
about yourself.

Good Luck!

Beyonce's Rx For Losing The Baby Weight!

                  Slimming Secret From Beyonce!
Beyonce just revealed that her choice of snacks isn't brownies,
a dozen oatmeal cookies or endless pieces of chocolate.
No, her favorite snack: Sugar-free Jello!

That's right, and to make it more flavorful, she uses  diet 
lemon-lime soda instead of water.
Although Ms. Knowles still has cookies and brownies,
she says the Jello helps her eat less.

How? Low sugar foods helps satify you, plus they help prevent
the blood sugar swings that can trigger cravings.

So, are you ready to adopt Ms. Knowles slimming secret?
If you are, I'd advise against drinking too much diet soda,
an occasional glass is okay, drinking it on a regular basis,
can cause bone loss, damage hearing and raise blood pressure.
Have an apple before one or two of your biggest meals,
or a salad, or a bowl of broth-based soup before a meal.
All 3 are great ways to curb appetite and aid in weight loss.

Good Luck!

Tim Tebow's Rxs For A Healthier Christmas!

                                           Healthy Tips From The Bible!
Tim Tebow the enigmatic quarterback of the Denver Broncos is
quite the polarizing figure. Never has there been a sports figure
more celebrated, not just for his play on the field, but his love of God
as well.

Mr. Tebow isn't the quaterback that John Elway or Troy Aikmann were
at age 23, but his dedication to hard work, will surely win over a lot fans.
And his dedication to working hard and believing in himself, will certainly
help the people of Colorado relive the winning ways of yesteryear and
his dedication to the bible will help the fans of the other 49 states.

That's right- Just as football can help heal, so can the bible.
If you're familiar with the bible, then you're aware of the number of
times...healing with Olive oil is mentioned.
But did you also know that there are nearly 40 herbs mentioned in the
"Good Book?"
And with Christmas five weeks away, why not share the gift
of the five herbs that make up the story of the "Three Wise Men".
You remember the story of the 3 wise men bringing myrrh and
frankincense to Mary and Joseph, but have you ever wondered
what myrrh and frankincense were?
Wonder no more, you'll find the answers below...
1) Myrrh-
Ease pain with myrrh. It's a tree resin that has natural anesthetic
properties that numb pain signals in the brain. Myrrh can dampen
the perceptions of pain by a whopping 25%.
Where do you find myrrh in 2011? Look for myrrh gum capsules
at health-food stores.
Important tip: Always talk to your Dr. before trying any new
alternative treatment.
2) Hyssop-
Mentioned in both the Old and New testaments-this herb was used
as an antiseptic and disinfectant-to treat respiratory problems.
Phytochemicals in hyssop can break up congestion, loosen phelgm,
ease swelling and reduce inflammation allowing you to breathe more
easily. Look for hyssop as a tea or buy the essential oil at health-food
stores. Drink the tea or apply a few drops of essential oil to a warm
compress and apply to your chest or head.
3) Cumin-
Used as a seasoning thousands of years ago, it was also used as currency.
Cumin has 2 uses: To soothe an upset stomach and to boost energy.
It contains more than 100 chemicals that work on gas and bloating,
as well as boosting oxygen levels to help you become more energized.
Find cumin at Supermarkets in the Spice aisle, or get it in capsule
or tea form at your health-food store.
Sprinkle on soups. salads, or chillis. Or add a tsp. to a cup of hot water,
let it sit for a few mins. stir and drink as a tea.
4) Frankincense-
Concerned about all of the running around you'll have to do this
holiday season? Reduce the fears and quell anxiety with frankincense.
It activates "feel-good" receptors in your brain, easing anxiety and
mild depression. Look for frankincense as an incense or candles at
health-food stores. Light them up whenever you feel stressed or tense.
5) Saffron-
Need to beat depression this coming holiday season? A little stronger
than frankincense, this herb is said to be the safer and cheaper-Prozac.
And another benefit of Saffron--Women who suffer from irregular
periods, can regulate them and return them to normal with Saffron.
Find saffron at health-food stores, take it as a tea or as dried extract. 

So, whether you like or dislike Tim Tebow, you can't dispute
the valuable health information we can learn from the Bible.

Good Luck!
