<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
If you don’t have iron willpower, then hunger will cause you to give up on these plans quickly.</div>

1. Cut Back on Sugars and Starches</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
The most important part is to cut back on sugars and starches (carbs).</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
These are the foods that stimulate secretion of insulin the most. If you didn’t know already, insulin is the main fat storage hormone in the body.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
When insulin goes down, fat has an easier time getting out of the fat stores and the body starts burning fats instead of carbs.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
Another benefit of lowering insulin is that your kidneys shed excess sodium and water out of your body, which reduces bloat and unnecessary water weight.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
It is not uncommon to lose <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">up to 10 pounds</span> (sometimes more) in the first week of eating this way, both body fat and water weight.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">

The low-carb group is eating until fullness, while the low-fat group is <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">calorie restricted and hungry.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
High protein diets can also reduce obsessive thoughts about food by 60%, reduce desire for late-night snacking by half, and make you so full that you automatically eat 441 fewer calories per day… just by <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">adding</span> protein to your diet.</div>

Don’t be afraid of eating fat, trying to do both low-carb AND low-fat at the same time is a recipe for failure. It will make you feel <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">miserable</span> and abandon the plan.</div>

You don’t <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">need</em> to exercise to lose weight on this plan, but it is recommended.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
The best option is to go to the gym 3-4 times a week. Do a warm up, lift weights, then stretch.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
By lifting weights, you will burn a few calories and prevent your metabolism from slowing down, which is a common side effect of losing weight.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
Studies on low-carb diets show that you can even gain a bit of muscle while losing significant amounts of body fat.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
If lifting weights is not an option for you, then doing some easier cardio workouts like running, jogging, swimming or walking will suffice.</div>

<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Bottom Line:</span> It is best to do some sort of resistance training like weight lifting. If that is not an option, cardio workouts work too.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
You can take one day “off” per week where you eat more carbs. Many people prefer Saturday.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
It is important to try to stick to healthier carb sources like oats, rice, quinoa, potatoes, sweet potatoes, fruits, etc.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
But <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">only</span> this one higher carb day, if you start doing it more often than once per week then you’re not going to see much success on this plan.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
If you must have a cheat meal and eat something unhealthy, then do it on this day.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
Be aware that cheat meals or carb refeeds are NOT necessary, but they can up-regulate some fat burning hormones like leptin and thyroid hormones.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
You will gain some weight during your re-feed day, but most of it will be water weight and you will lose it again in the next 1-2 days.</div>
<blockquote style="background: rgb(248, 248, 248); border-bottom: 2px solid rgb(231, 232, 235); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 16px 30px 18px; position: relative;">
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Bottom Line:</span> Having one day of the week where you eat more carbs is perfectly acceptable, although not necessary.</div>

It is NOT necessary to count calories as long as you keep the carbs very low and stick to protein, fat and low-carb vegetables.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">

The main goal is to keep carbs under 20-50 grams per day and get the rest of your calories from protein <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">and</span> fat.</div>
<blockquote style="background: rgb(248, 248, 248); border-bottom: 2px solid rgb(231, 232, 235); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 16px 30px 18px; position: relative;">
<div style="box-sizing: border-box;">

<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Eat a high-protein breakfast.</span> Eating a high-protein breakfast has been shown to reduce cravings and calorie intake throughout the day.</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Avoid sugary drinks and fruit juice.</span> These are the most fattening things you can put into your body, and avoiding them can help you lose weight.</li>

<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Eat soluble fiber.</span> Studies show that soluble fibers may reduce fat, especially in the belly area. Fiber supplements like glucomannan can also help.</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Drink coffee or tea.</span> If you’re a coffee or a tea drinker, then drink as much as you want as the caffeine in them can boost your metabolism by 3-11%.</li>

<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Eat your food slowly.</span> Fast eaters gain more weight over time. Eating slowly makes you feel more full and boosts weight-reducing hormones.</li>
<li style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Use smaller plates.</span> Studies show that people automatically eat less when they use smaller plates. Strange, but it works.</li>

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
You can expect to lose 5-10 pounds of weight (sometimes more) in the first week, then consistent weight loss after that.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
I can personally lose 3-4 lbs per week for a few weeks when I do this strictly.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
If you’re new to dieting, then things will probably happen quickly. The more weight you have to lose, the faster you will lose it.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
For the first few days, you might feel a bit strange. Your body has been burning carbs for all these years, it can take time for it to get used to burning fat instead.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
It is called the “low carb flu” and is usually over within a few days. For me it takes 3. Adding some sodium to your diet can help with this, such as dissolving a bouillon cube in a cup of hot water and drinking it.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
After that, most people report feeling very good, positive and energetic. At this point you will officially have become a “fat burning beast.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
Despite the decades of anti-fat hysteria, the low-carb diet also improves your health in many other ways:</div>

You Don’t Need to Starve Yourself to Lose Weight</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
If you have a medical condition then talk to your doctor before making changes because this plan can reduce your need for medication.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
By reducing carbs and lowering insulin levels, you change the hormonal environment and make your body and brain “want” to lose weight.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
This leads to drastically reduced appetite and hunger, eliminating the main reason that most people fail with conventional weight loss methods.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
This is proven to make you lose about 2-3 times as much weight as a typical low-fat, calorie restricted diet.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
Another great benefit for the impatient folks is that the initial drop in water weight can lead to a big difference on the scale as early as the next morning.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #191919; font-family: "Open sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px;">

On this plan, you can eat <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">good</span> food until fullness and still lose a ton of fat. Welcome to paradise.</div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">By Ana Iliescu</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I hope we all agree that beauty starts with a <b>beautiful skin</b>. Personally, I believe that skin is our ultimate accessory: it allows us to display physical health, well-being and <b>utter beauty</b>. <i><u><b>Who needs make-up</b></u></i> when you have a gorgeous, radiant derma? Sadly, <b>some women tend to neglect skin care. Make-up, as exhilarating as it is, can't do its wonders unless it is applied on a clean surface.</b> Therefore, what do you need to do in order to have your skin reflect your inner beauty and send forth that beautiful shine we all long for?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1. Tend to your pores. This piece of advice is addressed especially to those of you who have oily skin. Pores can become dilated around your nose under the effect of heat, sunlight or excessive sebum. Also, <b>dilated pores usually come hand in hand with black spots</b>. Thus, make a weekly ritual out of eliminating black spots using a dark spot remover, and another one out of thoroughly cleaning your pores using a cleanser with salycilic acid. A home-made option would be a solution made out of vinegar and aspirin pills - astringent and anti-acne.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2. <b>Never go to bed without removing your make-up</b>. Leftover make-up can age the skin immensely over a period of time. Use make-up remover and cleanser, toner and moisturizer. If you feel you don't have time for the entire ritual, you can replace the toner and cleanser with thermal water. In combination with natural sebum, thermal water eliminates close to all skin impurities.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">3. Sleep and have a balanced diet. A minimum of 8 hours of sleep per day is required if you want your <b>skin to look great</b> ("beauty sleep"). If you can't seem to let go of watching late-night movies or chatting on Yahoo Messenger until 4 a.m think of the gorgeous dark circles you'll have around your eyes the next day. Speaking of eyes, always be extra-tender with the area surrounding them and apply some cucumber on it from time to time. Your diet should include vegetables rich in water (cucumber, spinach, broccoli) and fruits. Avoid saturated fats if you want to stay away from break-outs.</span><br />

I'm sure you know how alcohol can affect your body over an extended period of time - stay away from it. Smoking can create dark spots on the skin and because of the facial gesture associated with inhaling the smoke, premature wrinkles can appear around the mouth area. In addition to the damage it does to your general health, smoking also makes your skin have an unpleasant scent.</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Your feet</b> are two of the most abused often used parts of the body, what with all the walking and running that you do everyday. This being said, you should make sure to give <b>your feet</b> the attention and care they deserve every so often. Taking good care of <b>your feet</b> will prevent you from getting foot conditions such as Athlete's foot or other fungal infections. No matter what the season is, it is always important to <b>keep your feet and toenails in tip-top condition</b>. During the hotter months, for example, <b>your feet</b> are constantly visible due to footwear choices such as sandals and slippers, so it would be a good idea to keep them looking fabulous and presentable. But even during the winter months when <b>you feet</b> are bundled up in socks and boots, it would still be advisable to take extra measures in <b>keeping your feet</b> well-cared for. Some of these <b>feet and toenail care tips</b> are applicable not only to women, but to men as well. Don't overlook the advantages of having nice-looking and <b>cared-for feet</b></span></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>1)</b></span> Make sure to wash <b>your feet</b> daily. With all the running
about from place to place that most people do everyday, <b>the feet</b> would have
been exposed to a lot of dust and dirt by the end of the day. If you take
showers in the morning and not at night, at least make feet-washing a part of
your nightly routine when you get home. Lather up with soap, and pay extra
attention to the spaces in between the toes. Wipe the feet gently with a towel
afterward. Aside from being a mark of good hygiene, doing this would also
ensure that you do not step onto your bed with dirty feet, and thus prevent
from bringing dirt to your place of rest and relaxation.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>2)</b></span></span><span style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"> Give
<b>your feet</b> a pedicure every two weeks. Painting them does not necessarily have
to be part of every pedicure routine, but regular pedicures really make a
difference in <b>keeping your feet soft</b> and free from dry and rough skin, and <b>your
toenails</b> clean and neat. You don't need to spend a lot of cash to have your
pedicure professionally done in a salon, and with a few tools, you can do your
own pedicure right in the comforts of your own home. Here's how to do one:</span></span></div>

your feet</b> for about 5-10 minutes in a large bowl with lukewarm water. As an
added treat, you may also wish to infuse the water with a few drops of
essential oils or Dead Sea salts, to keep the feet smelling good and to soften
hard skin respectively. The soaking time indicated here is merely just a suggestion
-- you may choose to soak your feet for much longer if you want to relax, or if

your feet</b> with a foot scrub to slough off dry and dead skin, and to moisturize
your feet as well. Massage the scrub in circular motions, and rinse off
afterward. To exfoliate the hardened skin on the heels and bottom part of the
feet, use a foot file or a pumice stone. Make sure to use a gentle filing
motion, and to never rub too hard.</span></span></li>

<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">Before painting, clean the nail plates by wiping
over them with nail polish remover. This removes excess oils as well as old
polish from the nails, so your new colour will go on smoothly and last well.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">Use toe separators to keep your toes apart. This
makes the process of painting easier, and prevents a freshly painted toenail
from staining another toe.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Always use a </span><span style="line-height: 18px;">base-coat</span><span style="line-height: 115%;"> - a clear layer of polish
- under your colour to prevent staining and to ensure your polish goes on
smoothly.</span></span></li>

choice, apply the polish to <b>your toenails</b>. Try to follow the "three stroke
method", which consists of using one stroke on each side and a stroke in
the middle. This ensures that the polish is evenly applied on the whole nail.
Apply two coats of polish to <b>your toenails</b>.</span></span></span></li>

<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">For
fall, choose browns, oranges, and reds. Dark green also looks good.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">For
winter, try not to go too festive. For December, either go with red or dark
green, but not both. Other colours for winter include dark blue and white. You
can really use any colour though because <b>your feet</b> are not seen a lot.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">For
spring, bring out the pastel colours Soft greens, pinks, purples, and blues are
a great touch!</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">For
summer, use bright natural colours Other colours that work are light blue,
turquoise, yellow, and white. If you have naturally fair skin and like to tan,
coral accentuates it nicely.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">If
you can't decide on a colour, remember that a French polish (nude or pale pink
polish with white tips) suits everyone and goes with all colours of clothing and
skin. But feel free to be bold with toenail colours -- on the fingernails, some
colours can look garish and tacky, but on <b>the toenails</b>, pretty much anything
goes!</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<b>your feet</b> everyday. Put lotion or foot cream on as a part of your routine. One
way to achieve soft, moisturized feet is to rub on some lotion or petroleum
jelly before bed, and slip on some socks. When you wake up in the morning,
you'll find that <b>your feet are very soft</b> and are free from dryness! Just
remember to never let the area between toes become over-moisturized, as this
will cause fungus.</span><span style="line-height: 18px;"> </span></span></div>

</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Always use an acetone-free nail polish remover, as acetone can
dry the nails and the skin/cuticles.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you don't have toenail separators for when applying nail
polish, you may also use twisted tissue paper woven between the toes.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Use the tips of an orangewood stick wrapped in cotton and
soaked in nail polish remover to help clean up small spills and polish
"bleed" around the cuticle or on the skin around your toes.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">When your healthy, <b>glamorous feet are ready for the summer</b>,
show them off in some beautiful flip-flops, or cool sandals in a colour you
like.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You can learn a lot from the professionals, so treat yourself
to a pro pedicure when you 'need' it -- and ask questions and pay attention!</span></li>
</ul>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Warning</span></b></h3>

injure yourself to prevent the risk of any infection.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Our feet</b> are often the least pampered parts of our bodies. Here are some suggestions from ayurveda, the ancient science of healing from India, for taking <b><a href="http://healthsafetytips.blogspot.com/2012/10/how-to-care-for-your-feet-and-toenails.html" target="_blank">care of your feet</a></b> on a regular basis:</span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. During your pre-bath ayurvedic massage (abhyanga), pay special attention to <b>your feet</b>. <b>Massage the feet</b>, each toe, the ankles, the heels and the soles in turn with the warm oil, gently stretching <b>the feet</b> and toes as you massage them and using circular motions around your ankles and heels. (Pat excess oil off your soles with paper towels before you step into the bath or shower and watch your step because oil can be slippery). This daily foot massage enhances lubrication and circulation, and helps draw toxins to the surface for release. Using massage oil that has been fortified with nourishing ayurvedic herbs provides added support to help <b>keep your feet strong and flexible</b>.</span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. During your bath or shower, <b>let your feet enjoy</b> warm water for a few minutes, then cleanse with a gentle, non-irritating cleanser and a footbrush or washcloth, working between the toes and scrubbing the heels to slough off dead skin. Use a neem based cleanser to help <b>rid feet of</b> odor or bacteria. After your bath or shower, <b>pat your feet dry</b> and apply a moisturizing body lotion if you use one anyway, otherwise massage a little plain shea butter or coconut oil on <b>your feet</b> before slipping on a pair of cotton socks.</span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. Once a week, apply a natural exfoliating mixture on <b>your feet</b>, especially on the heels and soles, when you cleanse, to remove hardened dead skin. Make your own exfoliating mixture of 2 parts coarse oatmeal, 2 parts chickpea flour (available at Indian grocery stores) and 1 part rose water. Add warm water as needed to form a thick paste. <b>Apply on your feet</b> and scrub gently, then rinse off with warm water. Pat dry and follow with an application of coconut oil, shea butter or natural body lotion.</span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. Follow basic rules of comfort. Wear footwear that fits properly and is roomy enough so that no part of your foot feels pinched. Do not wear high heels except when you absolutely have to. Replace shoes before they wear out or become lopsided with use. Wear cotton socks indoors to <b>protect your feet</b> from the cold. When the temperature is comfortable and you are indoors, walk barefoot occasionally to allow <b>your feet</b> to breathe. Sit, stand and walk with an erect posture. If you work at a sedentary job, take breaks every hour or so and walk around a little. Use a footsie roller at your workstation.</span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5. A nightly foot and lower leg massage not only relaxes <b>the feet</b>, it also helps promote restful sleep. Use a light, non staining oil such as almond or jojoba, and if you like, you can add 4-5 drops of a relaxing essential oil such as lavender or sandalwood to every 2 oz. of base oil. Take a very small amount of oil, just enough to offer lubrication, in your palm and gently massage your lower legs and feet for 3-4 minutes each until the oil is absorbed by your skin. Use soothing strokes and breathe deeply as you massage. No need to wash the oil off--you can go to bed as soon as you are done.</span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6. For tired, <b>stressed feet</b>, try a foot soak. Either of the following two recipes will have you sighing, "Ah, this is bliss," as you soak the tension away.</span></div>

</div>
<div id="fb-root">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wrap the ingredients in a cheesecloth and tie with a string. Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil. Drop the herb sachet in and turn off the heat. Let steep for 15-20 minutes. Combine the herbed water with enough comfortably warm water to immerse <b>your feet up to your ankles</b>, and soak <b>your feet</b> for about 15 minutes.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">(ARA) - With winter just a few weeks away many people are starting to feel the itchy effects of dry skin, but for people with diabetes, dry skin is not simply a minor annoyance -- it may lead to more serious complications if not properly treated.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
Severe dry skin may result in deep and painful cracks in the skin's surface, <b>especially in the feet</b>.</div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
Approximately 60 percent of people with diabetes suffer from a complication called neuropathy, or nerve damage, and may not be able to feel those painful cracks on the soles of <b>their feet</b>. Left untreated, wounds may become infected and create greater complications.</div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
More than 16 million Americans have diabetes, and each year more than 86,000 of them have amputations resulting from foot ulcers or chronic wounds, many of which begin as a small cut or blister.</div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
Doctors estimate that nearly 50 percent of amputations may have been prevented through a combination of awareness, prevention and intervention.</div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
"People with diabetes have the opportunity to significantly improve their condition by taking proactive measures to care for themselves," says Dr. Maria G. Dill, regional medical director for Curative Health Services and medical director at the Valley Baptist Wound Care Center in Harlingen, Texas. "Simple steps can be taken to prevent complications from arising."</div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
The following preventive measures may help people avoid or minimize the severity of injuries, sores and <b>infections to their feet</b>:</div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Never walk barefoot.</b></div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Check feet every day for injury.</b></div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<b>Wash feet daily in warm, soapy water.</b></div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Moisturize the soles of feet with unscented lotion immediately after bathing.</b></div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Avoid scented lotions, as they contain alcohol that may dry the feet.</b></div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Check shoes to make sure they are free of stones and sharp or lumpy objects, like a child's toy.</b></div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Wear loose socks in bed if feet are cold -- do not use hot water or heating pads to warm cold feet.</b></div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Make regular visits to a podiatrist.</b></div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
Without proper treatment, injuries caused by neuropathy may become serious wound problems, resulting in chronic infections, gangrene and possibly amputation. More than 6 million people in the United States suffer from chronic wounds, which are commonly defined as wounds that show little or no improvement after four weeks of best practices, or do not progress toward healing in eight weeks. Curative Health Services (Nasdaq: CURE) operates a national network of more than 100 Wound Care Centers(R), which follow an interdisciplinary approach when treating patients suffering from chronic wounds. Nutrition, wound prevention, and education play key roles in all treatment plans. The program has healed more patients with chronic wounds than any other wound specialty program, and consistently averages a 90 percent patient satisfaction rate throughout the nation.</div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
If non-healing foot ulcers occur, consult with a physician. For more information about foot care tips for people with diabetes or treatment for non-healing wounds, call the nearest Wound Care Center at (800) 991-HEAL (4325).</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Pain in the knee can be extremely distressing. The structure of the knee is such that many areas of the joint are susceptible to severe pain as they readjust or wear away. <b>Knee pain</b> could be caused by accidents, sports related injuries, and slips and falls. If neglected, it could result in many problems in the knees such as cartilage or ligament tears, inflammation, sprains, tendonitis, dislocation, joint infection, ligament injury, bone bruises, edema, sub-articular stress fracture or collection of fluid in the joint.</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Knee pain</b> can interfere with your daily activities and make your life difficult. You must ensure that you do not neglect it because lack of medical attention might further worsen the condition.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are many ways of treating <b>knee pain</b>, and most of these aim at breaking the inflammatory cycle. If the pain has just begun, you could try some home remedies such as over-the-counter anti-inflammatory pain medication, protection with knee pads, rest, ice packs, compression with a wrap or brace, and elevation. But if the pain does not respond to these remedies within a week, you would need to consult a physician or an orthopaedic specialist for further evaluation of your condition and the recommendation of the ideal treatment option. Only then would you be able to get effective and lasting relief.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A proper treatment plan is designed only after your physician diagnoses the root cause for the pain. An x-ray or MRI of the knee is required in most cases.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is essential to mobilize and strengthen the muscles surrounding the knee during treatment. Therefore, the entire program of physical therapy is designed in such a manner that the pain can be reduced and at the same time, greater flexibility can be brought about.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A guy named Dr. Stephen Blair (University of South Carolina) conducted an extended survey to study the effectiveness of <i><b>swimming for fitness</b></i>. What he found was remarkable. The study was conducted over a period of years, and measured the health benefits of more than forty thousand study participants, ranging in ages from twenty-nine to ninety. His conclusion was that <b>swimming</b> is hands down the best form of exercise you can undertake, beating out perennial favorites jogging and walking. In fact, the study concludes that if you incorporate <b>swimming</b> as the major form of exercise, you're a staggering fifty percent less likely to die.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Fifty percent. That's huge, and the implications of the study are equally enormous, which of course means that if you don't have, or have access to an exercise poor or <b>swimming</b> spa, then you should seriously consider it, if you're interested in optimal health.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In a series of different studies done, it has also been found that <b>swimming</b> is one of the better forms of exercise you can undertake if you suffer from Fibromyalgia which is a fairly common condition in which a person suffers from pain and tenderness in muscles, tendons and joints, and has been linked to chronic headaches, sleep problems, and general fatigue. It has also been shown that for women who are trying to get pregnant, regular moderate exercise can actually increase the chances of conception (though the same study notes that intense exercise, say, marathon training or the like, can actually decrease the chances of conception, so moderation is very definitely the key word here).</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Swim spas can be hugely expensive (some of the high end models can run upwards of forty thousand bucks, before counting installation fees, possible landscaping changes to your property, and ongoing maintenance), and as such, getting one may be out of reach for many people, however, given the health benefits mentioned above, if it's something you can afford, then it really is an excellent option, not only in that it helps foster better health and a longer life, but also in that it's an excellent addition to your home, that will enhance the value of your property long term, so if you decide to sell your place at some point, you'll find that your home fetches a premium for the addition of the swim spa.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So I'm up at 12 or 1 in the morning and I'm watching t.v, you know just flicking through channels. And I stumble upon these <b>fitness</b> infomercials where you see Insanity workouts and P90X, and I'm sitting here thinking two things to myself. 1. How did they get this much money to do what they do and 2. who was it that gave these guys they're certification to teach people how to get in shape. The reason I say this is because there is no way that people should be doing these types of workouts this immediately. And you really can't fault the people because it's not like they know any better, they are however the blame for not doing their research before starting a workout plan and nutritional diet. But no worries because I'm here to set the record straight about how the average unlearned run of the mill <b>fitness</b> client should prepare himself when it comes to getting himself in shape for whatever the reason may be.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For the average person, it's more economical for them to buy a hundred dollars worth of workout video information. To pay a <b>personal trainer</b> an average of fifty dollars per session seems a bit steep nowadays with the financial state of this country. Most people, are seeing <b>personal fitness trainers</b> as a luxury rather than a necessity, I respectfully disagree with them. Consider for a moment... consider that well over 30% of this country's inhabitants are overweight and that's not even counting adults that's just counting high school on down. For adults, the numbers are 3x's as bad. I think that definitely makes personal training a necessity rather than a luxury. And if the <b>personal trainer</b> is as good as advertised then it's money well spent to get this country back in shape.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now, lets just say the average person described in the paragraph above is slopping away on the couch in the middle of the night. He sees a way to get in shape without putting too much of a strain on his pockets. The infomercial does its job by making the workout look hard but fun. They entice the slopper by telling him he can get in shape quick without paying a <b>personal trainer</b> and without paying a gym membership fee. The <b>advertiser/personal trainer</b> tells you everything you want to hear but not what you NEED to hear.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Before you get involved with working out there are steps that need to be taken that are imperative to you not only getting in shape, but doing so without hurting yourself in the process. I'll cover those steps in the next article.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Any health care</b> environment big or small poses an ever present risk of <b>infection</b> often referred to as hospital acquired <b>infection</b> (HAI). And even an otherwise simple ailment can get serious in such a set up. That is why <b>infection control</b> is an integral part of a <b>health care</b> facility. It adopts a combination of measures like surveillance, investigation, management and also the use of practices including wearing the proper gear, maintaining cleanliness, <b>disinfection</b> and safe disposal. All these steps help to prevent the spread of <b>infection</b>, and contain it when necessary.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">However there is another <b>infection control</b> measure that is always stressed on and finds place in any kind of instruction to effectively reduce the chances of an <b>infection</b> breakout; that measure is <b>hand washing</b>.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The following 3 points will tell you more about this extremely vital safety measure.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>1</u>. <u>When to Use Hand Washing procedures</u></span></b></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">• Ideally you must wash your hands before any treatment but especially when conducting an invasive medical procedure like surgery or use of any invasive equipment. Furthermore hands must be washed before treating patients who are particularly vulnerable to any <b>infection</b> due to their medical condition or even when dealing with newborns. Finally hygiene must be maintained when attending to any wound that has resulted in broken skin, which makes for an easy entry point for <b>infections</b>.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">• Besides this hands must be washed thoroughly after any procedure in which you have made contact with blood, any kind of bodily fluids, mucus membrane and also any contaminated instruments, surfaces and materials like gauze. While you must wash your hands between attending to different patients soon after you remove the gloves, you may also be required to wash hands when performing different procedures on the same patient to avoid issues of cross-contamination.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>2</u>. <u>Using Effective Cleaning Agents</u></span></b></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">• Using plain soap in any of the available forms like liquid and bar, and then rubbing your hands vigorously to form lather helps to loosen and suspend any dangerous micro-organisms which can then be rinsed under running water. However remember that the bar should be kept on racks that allow it to dry off and the liquids must be replaced entirely without adding new liquid to the older one.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">• Using an antimicrobial cleaning agent on the other hand not only kills any harmful organisms but also prevents their growth. This kind of 'chemical' <b>hand washing</b> must be employed when working with high risk patients or in such units.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">

</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">• It is very important for every health care facility to have sufficient <b>hand washing</b> facilities complete with soap and running water set up at convenient locations. Such facilities must also be available adjoining rooms that perform invasive procedures or diagnostics.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today there are several modern personal equipments and cleaning and disposal systems available to assist in <b>infection control</b>. However a simple procedure like <b>hand washing</b> still remains extremely vital and is in fact one of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of <b>infection</b>, and thus must be followed at all times without fail.</span></div>

<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>A heart disease diet</b> should not be thought of as a temporary solution to get you over a difficult time. If you have had a heart bypass, a stent or heart attack or been diagnosed with Coronary <b>Heart Disease</b> then there are lots of things about your lifestyle that the hospital's cardiac rehab team will have talked to you about. One of those recommended changes will have been to change your eating pattern to a healthy <b>heart disease diet</b>.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ideally your lifestyle should have been assessed and recommendations been made as to the best way forward for you. Switching to <b>a heart disease diet</b> will make a big difference not just too how you feel in the coming months but in the years to come to your quality of life and health.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's important to remember that there is no rush. Small steps that are taken every day will overtime add up. You may have been told to make lots of different changes not just to what you eat but also to how much you drink and the activity you do. You do not want to change everything at once! If you rush into changing everything you will find it hard to maintain and after a few months be back to square one. Don't think of it as a change in your <b>diet</b> which is a temporary measure and has an end point. <b>A heart disease diet</b> should be thought of as a lifelong commitment to healthy eating.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>A heart disease diet</b> plays an important part in your recovery, which once you see and feel the benefits will also affect how you feel in yourself. How you are thinking will affect how you feel and how you feel will affect what you do. Therefore it is important to think about <b>a heart disease diet</b> as a new way of eating for the rest of your life.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">How you think and feel about food is often neglected when going on a <b>diet</b> or changing the way you eat. How you were brought up will have an impact on not just your food choices but on how you feel in yourself.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Were you ever rewarded with food? I expect you can remember being told "if you are good you can have some sweets." We all have an emotional attachment with food as it makes us feel good.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cut out all processed foods and reduce the amount of salt you have. Consider the way you cook your meals, steaming or grilling your food would be a good place to start. Reducing the amount of calories you eat each day is a good place to start and you can do that simply by buying a smaller dinner plate.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The reality is that it only takes a tiny imbalance to make a huge difference. Eating just one extra chocolate biscuit (100 calories) each day, could lead to a weight gain of 5kg (just over 10lb) in a year! Therefore by adding a physical activity program as well as switching to <b>a heart disease diet</b> lines you up for success.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">Prescription drug abuse and addiction is a severe and growing problem in the United States. Abuse of prescription drugs has surpassed that of cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine, leading to new drug addictions for millions of Americans each year. The most critical problem is that users are generally under the impression that such drugs are "safe" because they are medically approved for use. However, most of these drugs are made from dangerous and addictive substances such as opiates, and even under supervised medical care addiction can occur. But while there may be drug addiction treatment centers readily available in every state, the best defense against prescription drug addiction is a good offense in the form of education.</span></div>
<div id="article-content" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The demographics of people who abuse and become addicted to prescribed drugs are surprisingly diverse. Affluent people, the very poor, the educated and uneducated, professionals and laborers alike all fall victim to this disease. According to 2004 research by the US Office of National Drug Control Policy, an estimated 20% of adult Americans have abused these drugs at some point in their life. In fact, abuse of painkillers and sedatives is highest among the elderly, who are prescribed more of these drugs than any other age group. Even under a physician's care it is possible to become addicted to such medications and many elderly may not even realize they have become addicted.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The second largest age group of prescription substance abusers - and the fastest growing - is among teens. Prescribed drugs are easy for most teens to obtain and are often marketed under the guise that these drugs are safe alternatives to other drugs such as marijuana, cocaine and heroin. In fact, this popularity of prescription drug use among teens has helped push prescription drugs to become the 2nd most widely abused drugs in the country behind marijuana. Painkiller abuse by teens is especially dangerous considering that the human brain is still developing and can be profoundly and permanently affected by even moderate drug use.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The mental and physical health risks associated with prescription drug addiction are substantial. For example, a 2004 study on deaths caused by poisoning in the United States indicated that nearly all were caused by drugs, and most were specifically related to prescription drug abuse. (According to theantidrug.com, a US-Government-backed website dedicated to eradicating illicit drug use.) This is attributed to the fact that these drugs are highly addictive, cause tolerance and dependence to develop rapidly, and have severe physiological consequences such as heart failure, pulmonary disorders, seizures, stroke, suicidal or homicidal tendencies and psychotic episodes.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Despite the severity of most prescription drug addiction problems, treatment is easy to obtain and can be very effective. Severe problems can be addressed in an inpatient treatment center, while less severe problems or recent relapses can be treated in an outpatient treatment program. While each might have varying levels of treatment, both make use of individual and group therapies as part of a lifelong strategy of Relapse Prevention to address denial management and the treatment of Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome or PAWS.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">Do you want a clean environment? Let's take it as a big yes!!!</span></div>
<div id="article-content" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our environment is our home, people dream, people talk big, people fight & and make new plans every night but its leads us nowhere but we need to think, what does it takes to live and create a peaceful environment. Let's move our spirited souls and take an oath!!!</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We are what we are and we represent our nation and when it comes to us we are the best. When a kid grows up the first thing taught is how to hold a pencil. To make anything right we need to fix the roots first and start it from the scratch.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We can begin by taking the first step by using eco-friendly pencils which is an environmentally responsible choice to make. Most of us does not have a clue of the production process involved in making pencils, they leads to a great social cost, trees are felled in order to acquire wood which leads to deforestation.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Eco-friendly pencils are very useful as they are environment sensitive and are entirely produced from recycled waste materials. Unlike wood pencils, we have no wood slates to grind, no trees to chop, and no hexagonal figure to cut by crushing wood.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In fact it will prevent environment degradation every time you use it, they are much softer than the wood pencils, they do not contain chemical means that are harmful for the body, and due to the absorption properties of the paper pencil slippage caused by hand perspiration is much less as compared to the wood pencil. It has so many benefits, and no quality difference it gives you the same quality that you get from a wood pencil.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Eco-friendly pencils are not only cost-effective but are durable and have light weight, which gives a good grip and handling of the pencil while writing. It is easy to erase and can give a better presentation of work.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Deforestation is a contributor to Global warming. We can save hundreds and thousands of trees every year by promoting their use that would extract the carbon dioxide from the environment and release oxygen. Give a thought to what's going on and ask how you can take action and how you can hold this problem and make it a vital part of your life.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Avoid products that require trees to be cut down just for one product. Join hands to make a better and peaceful place to live.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The fine news is, while you're only one person, there is millions of one person out there, just like you, looking for ways to create a eco-friendly environment and the best way to start is by using eco-friendly pencils.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">Nosocomial infections are those that typically manifest themselves in a hospital setup. Such kinds of infection can spread in many different ways. That is where infection control comes in which is responsible to put in place various procedures and safeguards to minimize the risk of spreading diseases. Such controls have to work on several fronts, and though in the center of it all are patients, environmental management too is important.</span></div>
</div>
<div id="article-content" style="line-height: normal;">
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The 5 ways mentioned below revolve around managing the hospital environment to check infection.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">• Proper Ventilation: Suitable ventilation systems are of utmost importance whether it is a general area or a surgery room. The higher risk areas of a facility for transplants, operation and critical care must have filtration units for providing clean or ultra air depending on the room and the criticality of the procedures involved. If the patients' room or any general area is air-conditioned then the filters must be cleaned regularly. If instead of air-conditioning there are fans then its flow should be directed towards the nearest window and never towards other rooms or corridors. Also the use of fans must be avoided where the risk of airborne pathogens is high. A hospital's ventilation should be such that reduces the possibility of contamination and all the systems must be checked and maintained on a regular basis by the relevant personnel.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">• Safe Water: Drinking water must be boiled or dispensed through purifiers. Also the dispensers for storing water must be completely sealed off against any kind of contact with hands or other materials, also the glasses must be disposable. In addition the tanks containing water for washing should be cleaned and monitored to keep any kind of contamination at bay.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">• Maintaining Cleanliness: Cleanliness of the hospital is a fairly basic but important measure for infection control. While administrative sections of the facility can be cleaned like your house, the areas consisting of patients should be cleaned not by sweeping but with a mop soaked in a solution of hot water and detergent. A disinfectant may be added for certain specialized areas. Also any spills of body or fluids must be cleaned off immediately.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">• Managing Waste: Waste generated by the hospital can literally be a reservoir for infection and must be handled accordingly. Such waste must be carefully segregated and stored in the proper container or bags which should be suitably marked. Their storage areas must have sufficient warning signs too. From here the waste can be sent to the incinerator and transported as per the requirements. Also remember that the personnel handling such waste must wear protective gear at all times.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">• Laundry Services: Used laundry must be deposited in bags marked for the purpose, especially those that are contaminated by body fluids. Such laundry must be carefully transported with minimum agitation and ideally washed in washers with detergent and water at high temperatures, and then dried off in heavy duty driers.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A proper management of various environmental factors can be very effective for infection control in a health care facility.</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">Did you know that when we feel understood by our doctor we do get better faster? In fact, the relationship between the doctor and the patient can stimulate...or hinder the efficacy of the treatment. Research has shown that people, who feel cared for with attention, not only reported a higher satisfaction, but also better results with their care. Let's discover why the exchange between the physician and the patient is so important, and why we should seek a doctor who is ready to listen to us.</span></div>
<div id="article-content" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">

<strong style="line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">An interaction between 2 persons</strong></div>
</span><br />
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">When a patient meets a doctor, he meets another human being who is going to convey a general impression, which will affect the patient and his condition. That interaction was, up to the 18th century, the essential component of the medical care. In an article on the history of medicine, Ivan Illich (1) notes that the 'ars medendi' (medical art) was mainly verbal. The doctor not only listened with attention, he adapted his voice inflexion and the choice of his words to the patient. He used an elaborate body language to express his understanding of the patient's condition. That mimetic diagnosis was considered as having a major therapeutic function. Today, neuroscience helps us better understand how the doctor/patient relationship affects the physiology of the patient. Let's take a closer look at a significant discovery in neurophysiology: Mirror neurons</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mirror neurons: we neurologically mimic what others do</span></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">Mirror Neurons were discovered in 1995 by an Italian team of researchers in psycho-neurology. The discovery happened, as major discoveries often do, by chance. They were studying the brain function of a monkey. During their lunchtime, as they started to eat a pizza, they noticed that the scanner to which the monkey was hooked started to ring. The animal was nonetheless seating quietly looking at the researchers who were eating. As Professor Giacomo Rizzolatti, the lead researcher, looked closer at the scanner, he noticed that the monkey, when he saw the men reaching for the pizza, was firing the same neurons he would have to move his right arm. That initial discovery was further studied over the following decade, and major research centre like the </span><em style="line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">Center for Brain and Cognition</em><span style="line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;"> at the University of California, confirmed the mimetic function of neurons. What they found was that whenever we would look at another person act, we would fire the same neurons in our brain as the ones used by the other person's brain. And the more similarities we would have with that person the more mirror neurons would fire. That understanding of human neurology explains how children can assimilate their cultural environment. It is through their nervous system's natural ability to reproduce the acts of their parents. Now, if we look at the doctor/patient relationship through this new perspective, we will better understand how the feelings of the doctor can affect the body of the patient. Let's take a closer look at the concept of empathy and its effect on health.</span></span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Empathy: I know and feel what you are going through</span></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">A patient comes in the doctor's office. The doctor welcomes him warmly and listens to his condition with attention. The patient feels understood and he feels a sense of proximity with the doctor. The neurons mirrors are now in a condition to be activated. After the doctor has understood the patient's situation, he poses his diagnosis and shares the best way to manage it. He does it in a confident and calm way. The serenity the doctor conveys, will immediately be mirrored by the patient who would feel reassured about his condition. That shift in the patient's perspective on his condition will drastically help the healing process. A study published in the Journal of General Internal Medicine (2), and involving 100 primary care physicians and 4,746 patients revealed that when the physician expressed empathy it was associated with higher patient ratings of interpersonal aspects of care (satisfaction) and a stronger sense of reassurance. Knowing that the faith a patient puts into his treatment does play a major role in its efficacy; we now better understand the importance of finding a doctor that emanates confidence and empathy.</span></div>

<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<em style="line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Jake_A_Rath" rel="author" target="_blank" title="EzineArticles Expert Author Jake A Rath">Jake A Rath</a></span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">The canker sore, also known as an apthous ulcer, or apthous stomatitis, is a widespread oral condition, experienced by 10% of the world's population. It is very easy to detect a cold sore in the mouth. Usually, the pain alone is a convincing indicator, and the ordeal of eating, drinking and talking with a mouth ulcer is known to many people.</span></div>
<div id="article-content" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Firstly, canker sores are open sores that tend to appear in the soft tissues of the inside of the mouth. These tissues usually belong to the base of the gums, the tongue, the roof of the mouth, and the inner surfaces of the lips. A canker is identified by small tears in the mucous membranes of these tissues. The swelling of these tissues is also a common symptom. A cankers contact with food or fluids often results in painful stinging and burning sensations.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cankers are usually solitary, although it is possible for small clusters to also develop. On sight, they appear as shallow open wounds, yellow or white in color. They are often surrounded by a border, or "halo" of swollen, red, irritated flesh.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Some extreme cases of apthous ulcers are preceded by specific symptoms. For instance, should they develop on the gums, swelling in the lymph glands below the jaw may prevail. Other symptoms, such as sensitive teeth or toothache-type sensations, can be precursors to a canker sore outbreak. Even fevers are possible indicators of bad canker afflictions.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These sores are usually caused by trauma to the mouth, originating from orthodontic equipment, accidental biting, and sports accidents. However, vitamin deficiencies, SLS toothpastes, hormonal fluctuations, and even quitting smoking have all been linked to the formation of canker sores.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The good news is that they do not last for too long. Two weeks is the maximum amount of time in the development and healing of a canker sore, and the duration period is subjective to the individual's health. It is, therefore, possible to simply "deal" with the pain without seeking treatment.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If the experience proves too painful to bear, there are many treatments available to accelerate the healing process, as well as to curb the pain of the open sore. Most people use remedies found in pharmacies, such as anesthetic creams and gels. Alternatively, many home remedies have proven to be just as effective. Salt water solutions, and hydrogen peroxide solutions, for example, soothe the canker sore and also protect it from other secondary bacterial infections.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is important to note the differences between a canker and a cold sore. Often, people tend to confuse the two. In asking the question "are canker sores contagious?" they've assisted in generating the myth that cankers actually are contagious. They are not. Cold sores, which are viral infections, are contagious and must be treated accordingly. Apthous Ulcers, however painful, remain isolated to the person suffering them. One way to easily distinguish a canker core from a cold sore is the location of the sore itself. Cankers only affect the internal tissues of the mouth. Cold sores, on the other hand, appear on the surface tissues of the mouth, and can even infect the skin near the chin and nose. <a href="http://howtogetridofsores.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_new">Mouth sores</a> are very painful but with some patience and the proper remedies they can be overcome.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">Growing up as a child there was a statement that was spoken to me that cannot be forgotten. When you live in the solutions, your problems will go away. You all kill me when you go to a doctor for a type of remedy or benefit. That event is the height of arrogance and hypocrisy, or maybe extreme ignorance. Perhaps you simply are brain washed from too many commercials and fake shows depicting that venue as one of health.</span></div>
<div id="article-content" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There was a great article recently published by Dr. Mercola sharing the exploits of Dr. Robert Rowen. Dr. Rowen is a graduate of one of the finest medical schools on the planet. He is more so known for introducing through legislation the first ever laws that protect a physician for using natural remedies. These are my words and paraphrased so may not be exactly correct and will link his article and video recently done down in the author box. His take on the drug companies is strict. When they knew that one of their drugs was dangerous and kept it on the market anyway, is called murder.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What is so very amazing to me is the absence of common sense when seeing a physician. When you see them come into the office you have been waiting and the nurse has likely already done most of the work checking you for symptoms. Now here comes the doctor with questions, not answers. They ask you what your symptoms are. Do they find out anything at all about you or your life? Are you ever asked about nutrition and diet and how much water you drink daily? How about what kind of water do you drink? Is it live or dead or worse, distilled? If your doctor asks you to try a new drug, you are being asked to promote unproven drugs with zero science behind it practices. Are you crazy?</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The three or four minute office visit quickly wrapped up with a decision to write a prescription for a petrochemical pill called medicine that will repress your symptoms, not cure your problem is given and on to the next person. Dr. Rowen has spoken in front of thousands of medical doctors and each time pulls out a one hundred dollar bill and offers it to the audience to the first physician who can prove that drugs and medications of any kind can resolve any health issue. He still maintains possession of those original hundred bucks.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The three building blocks of health according to Dr. Rowen are nutrition, elimination of toxins, and stress. Many of you reading this may be living in a state of malnutrition. One of our kids success is they have never eaten fast food of any kind. We don't own or ever eat any food that has been in a microwave oven. The best was to think of that is eating radiated food. Does that even make sense to you? If you are the person who grabs a pastry with coffee and eats fast food then consumes a microwave dinner or goes out to eat, you are someone who needs help now. So may your kids. They are not fat and obese due to hereditary reasons; genetics do not work that way. Your <b>children</b> are obese because they eat at the same table or food you do.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Most Americans who are obese and fat are actually toxic. Your body is craving nutrients and since you are not giving it any, your body is storing everything you foolishly put into it. One step you can take now is starting to eat live food. Eating a vine ripened fruit or vegetable that is organic is the best place to start. Maybe it is time to go to your local farmers market. Start one if there isn't any nearby. Sadly I can say most Americans have never drunk live water. Non chlorinated water is a great start. There is a world wide website called find a spring you may use to locate this vital resource near you for free.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Many of you may not know that when you dump toxins often you feel worse before you feel better. Your body has been storing your toxins in your fat cells and when it begins to release these dangers, you feel the effects. Not to worry, your body that already has repaired itself many times knows how much of the toxins it can dump at a time. My suggestion is to remember how long it takes you to walk into the woods, is usually the same amount of time it takes to walk back out. If you have microwave mentality you are in for some challenges.</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">A lot of people who want to lose weight want to find an easy way to do it.

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sweat some</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">

I am aware that not too many people actually like this one, but if you do want to have lasting results, you have got to include this in your daily routine. Make it a habit to sweat some. Do not let a day pass without jogging for some time or going to the gym.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Exercise is one of the best fat burners you burn your calories very effectively. Also, this is one of the ways by which your muscles and your skin can be tightened. Dieting is not enough. If you want to have a tight and firm body, you need to get up out of the couch and exercise. However, you also should not push yourself too hard when you do this. Take it slow and gradually build momentum to avoid any unpleasant experiences like fainting while exercising or feeling dizzy.</span></div>

What it can do is it can lessen your fat intake so that you would not need to burn so much. How can this be done? It is very simple. You do not even need to sweat this part and it will not cost so much as a dime. All you have to do is drink up a glass of water every before you eat your meal. This will help you feel full already so your food craving would decrease and you would not eat so much. Also, drinking a lot of water can cleanse you body of toxins and other wastes so that you are always refreshed. Because of its cleansing properties, it can do wonders for your skin too. A lot of people who are trying to lose weight are too concerned about becoming thin that they forget that how their skin looks like matters as well.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">The </span><b style="line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;">shoulder</b><span style="line-height: 1.5em; text-align: -webkit-auto;"> is a very beneficial part of the body. Not only does it work as a middle-man to the neck and back, but it also has other benefits. One of the most noted is the fact that it allows people to move their arms. This part of the body is what gives everyone the ability to do certain exercises, brush their hair, participate in boxing matches and a myriad of other tasks that seem mundane. Because this body part is so important in everyday life, procedures such as shoulder surgery should not be neglected, when they are necessary of course.</span></span></div>
<div id="article-content" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are many ways you can damage this area, such as playing sports. Some sports-related activities, like kickball and even soccer, don't put the same amount of stress on the shoulder as much as others do. Take baseball or softball, for example. Whether you are batting the ball, catching the ball in the outfield or serving as the pitcher, you are actively using your arms. The pitcher in particular, has a good chance of causing a great deal of damage if they are not careful.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Another possible cause for shoulder surgery would be if someone was involved in an accident. Not only could a bad car accident cause injury, falling off of a bike the wrong way could do just as much damage. For example, if someone is riding their bike down the street and they spot a dog. If their first feeling is fear, their first inclination would be to get away as fast as possible. Therefore, they wouldn't be paying as much attention as they should, causing them to ride right into a pothole. When this happens, they begin to hit the ground along with the bike. In an attempt to save themselves, they put their arm out. They come down hard on their arm and cause great damage to their shoulder area.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sports and bike accidents aren't the only causes for the need for a shoulder surgery procedure. The regular wear and tear that comes with the aging process is another culprit. As people age, their joints and bones become weaker and more brittle. When this happens to body parts such as the shoulder, they are more prone to injury and pain.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">All of the aforementioned occurrences are good examples of why procedures such as shoulder surgery are so important. The arms and shoulder work together to give people the freedom to do many activities. Without them, there would be do hugging, ability to hold babies or ability to reach up for a good stretch. Therefore, people should take all necessary precautions when it comes to preserving and treating this part of the body. If not, they could allow even more damage to be caused by their neglect.</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Let's face it. No one really wants to go through surgery. Skipping out on or neglecting the importance of a procedure such as shoulder surgery, however, could cause horrible consequences.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For instance, take a lady who had been feeling pain in her shoulder area. Because she feared the worst, she tried to ignore it. So, instead of going in to see a specialist, she continued to deal with the issue as long as possible. However, it made her life extremely difficult. She could no longer use her arms as much as she used to. It started to become a hassle. She wasn't able to do her daily exercises or play with her grandchildren without experiencing great pain.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, one day she decided that the pain was too much to bear, so she finally went in to see a physician. Before, she went in; however, she told herself she would not get shoulder surgery. She had heard so many horror stories about operation procedures from some of her friends, that she decided it would be too risky. Surely, there was another way, she thought.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As she sat in the waiting room she couldn't help but to hear the conversation going on at the receptionist's desk.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"So, Ms. Johnson how has that shoulder been doing," asked the receptionist.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"Oh, it is doing much better after that shoulder surgery," she said. "I was scared at first, but I'm glad I went through with it. I just hated the recovery process."</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The receptionist looked up at Ms. Johnson compassionately.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"What do you mean?" she asked. "Was it painful?"</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"Oh just a little, but it was all worth it."</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The lady who was listening to the conversation, sat back in her seat and mumbled under her breath.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"See, she said it was painful," she mumbled. "I'm not getting that operation no matter what they say. There has to be another way."</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When she finally made it in to see the doctor, he took x-rays and examined her shoulder area. Then, it seemed as if time stopped as she heard those 8 dreaded words.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"It looks like you will need shoulder surgery," said the doctor.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As a parent and breadwinner it is one of your first duties to both you and your family to stay physically healthy and avoid the long and ugly list of chronic illness that you could fall victim to, including cancer, heart attacks, organ failure, strokes etc.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Medical aids, life insurance and chronic illness cover might provide you with the financial protection you need but you will never be able to protect your family from the emotional and psychological trauma of a serious illness. I could share the terrifying true life experiences of affected families or list a string of statistics about how likely you are to suffer from some horrible disease before you turn 60. But I am not going to, because this article is about the positive. It is about the 10 simple things that you can do to stay healthy. For you, and your family.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. Quit smoking and limit your alcohol intake</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. Exercise for at least 20 minutes three times a week</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. Drink lots of water and do not drink diet drinks or any other soft drinks except diluted, pure fruit juice</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. Avoid processed foods - eat your foods as close to their original state as possible. For example eat a bowl of oats for breakfast and not a sugar-laden breakfast cereal</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5. Avoid saturated fats - these are the fats found mainly in animal products: meat, dairy and eggs</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6. Eat a variety of fruit and vegetable every day - preferably organic and only lightly cooked</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">7. Avoid red meat, rather eat lean chicken and fish</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">8. Avoid sugar and limit your intake of salt</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">9. Eat a lot of nuts, pulses, legumes and grains</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">10. Never skip breakfast and eat small regular meals.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Remember the food you eat can be your poison or your medicine - the choice is yours. With the right food choices good health is within your reach.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Good health is not about reaching your goal weight or building muscles at the gym. Good health is a way of life that we should teach our children by example. It is about giving our body the fuel it needs and then using that body, actively, every day. Good health is about being able to prevent illness. Good health supports an active mind, good focus and concentration. And lastly, a healthy body equals a happy mind, with the link between health, a sensible diet and good mood well documented.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In this modern day to truly be healthy it requires more than just exercising and eating right. <b>The new kid on the block that is harmful to you is EMFs</b>. Electromagnetic fields (<b>EMFs</b>) come from electricity lines, electricity wires, wireless devises such as cell (mobile) phones, cordless phones, and broadband. They have been linked to many different health issues such as leukemia, Alzheimer's disease and other degenerative diseases. When combined with a toxic metal it is thought to be linked with autism. The international agency for cancer research (of WHO) has classified <b>EMFs</b> as a possible carcinogen (cancer-causing agent). In the UK the government (SAGE) has advised that power lines are linked to childhood leukemia and that power lines should be placed underground not near houses. Electrical lines around a house reduce the effect of the electrical <b>EMFs</b> from power lines however glass windows don't. Therefore wire-mesh frames can be placed on the outside of the window and they should be earthed. However the magnetic fields of the <b>EMFs</b> can penetrate through any material.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Stay on the cutting edge of beauty by following 2012's most popular trends, as described below.</span></div>
<div id="article-body">
<div id="article-content">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>1. Lips: Matte and Bold</b></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Extremely
bright lips in fire engine red, acid green, and even blue were a big
hit with Mary designers Katrantzou and Jason Wu. Donna Karan chose a
wine-lover's palette; her models sported two tones of burgundy on their
lips. This year, lips should make a statement - go for juicy colors or
classic bright tones. To nourish and show off your lips, choose Jenna
Kidd Makeup School's Ultimate Lipstick Duo in Scarlett. One end of this
stick is balm, while the other is rich lipstick. To achieve two-toned
merlot lips, select a chocolate shade for the inner lips. Creamy Lips in
L104 and L102 from ELLIS FAAS would be an ideal product for creating
this look.</span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>2. Eyes go Retro with 1950s-Style Eyeliner</b></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cat
eyes triumphed in last year's fashion shows, and they're not going
anywhere soon. Louis Vuitton, Armani, and Dolce & Gabbana models all
wore 1950s-style cat eyes at the spring fashion shows. Drawing a smooth
cat eye is challenging, but it's easier with a little practice - and an
excellent product, such as Ellis Fass eyeliner. This exceptional liner
goes on as a liquid but transforms into a matte powder for staying
power.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At this year's spring shows, some models, including Derek
Lam's, wore extremely bright shades of eyeliner. This is a modern update
of the classic 1950s look. Crushed Jewel Gel liner from Jenna Kidd
Makeup School contains eye-catching glitter, and is available in onyx,
diamond, and azure tones.</span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>3. The Zen Look: Going Minimalist</b></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In
stark contrast to the designers mentioned above, the Givenchy and
Stella McCartney shows chose a minimalist approach, with lip conditioner
rather than lipstick, totally natural eyes, and just a touch of powder,
concealer and blush. To pull off this look, one must have radiant skin.
Get yours ready with Rejuvenating Primer from BECCA Cosmetics.
Moisture-rich coconut oil, vitamins A and E, and age-defying flower
extract combine in this BECCA Cosmetics wonder to create a glowing
countenance.</span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>4. Achieve a Sun-Kissed Look with Color Contouring</b></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Alexander
McQueen's models looked like they just stepped off the beach, thanks to
color contouring. Likewise, Michael Koors' makeup artists used caramel
tones to highlight models' foreheads, noses, and cheekbones. Color
contouring can make any woman seem bronzed by the sun - and this
approach also accents your face's best features. The hardest part is
choosing a shade of bronzer that's just slightly darker than your skin
tone. We suggest starting out with an illuminating moisturizer, like
Shimmering Skin Perfector from BECCA Cosmetics. Then, apply Bronze
Perfection Natural Skin from Jemma Kidd Makeup School to your nose,
cheekbones, and forehead. This Jemma Kidd Makeup School product is
subtle enough to use over foundation.</span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>5. Metallic Tones</b></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Fendi's
models had gold and silver leaf across their entire eyelids, while
Rodarte's models wore sported gold eyelashes and lipstick. Follow suit
by adding a touch of shine with Eye Lights from ELLIS FAAS. This product
begins as a liquid, and while it still looks moist to observers, it
actually shifts to a smooth, dry finish. This adds a glamorous look.
ELLIS FAAS has created this eye tint in lilac, green-gold, holographic
Bordeaux, and warm silver, so there's sure to be a color that matches
your personality.</span></div>
