Aloe vera gel also increases shininess of hair. Deeply moisturizing and soothing, it reduces scalp inflammation and nourishes each strand, resulting in bouncy and revitalized hair.

The Dark Side of Polyester: Health, Environmental, and Reproductive Concerns

I know most of us love that feeling of slipping into a smooth, wrinkle-free outfit, but what if the material in your favorite clothes are silently harming your health? As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized that it’s not just what we put in our bodies that make us sick, it’s also what we put on our body. You see, our skin is comparable to a sponge, soaking any and everything we put on it. That’s why it's imperative to be aware of the materials we are putting on our skin. Let's discuss why. Polyester is one of the world's most used fibers. It is found in our bras, underwear, leggings, and workout clothes, yet most consumers know nothing of how it's made. It’s essentially plastic.

The polyester fibers that cover our skin are synthetic, or man made, textile fibers formed by condensation polymeriz...

Using certain herbs, foods, supplements and homeopathic remedies can help you avoid catching a cold or flu and build your immune system. If you do catch a virus, they can help relieve the symptoms and shorten the duration and severity of the illness.

One teaspoon of sugar (soda has about 9-11 tbsp.) can weaken your immune system for 4 hours. I believe that this is why so many people are now having an extreme difficulty fighting illnesses. (Besides repeated antibiotic use). Try eating more vegetables, at least 4-5 servings a day! Along with eggs for ...
