Okay. So here’s the deal. Take care of your body and your body will take care of you. Don’t, and it may lash back at you. THE END.
Oh, wait. There is more. Sorry. Exercise. Drink plenty of water. Get enough rest. And above all, you have to eat right. I know you know this. I know you’ve heard this a thousand times. But are you doing it all? A study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports just 14.6 percent of Americans are eating well and exercising regularly. Eating right can be the make or break point for your overall...

Everyone’s skin is different and delicate in its own way. As kids, we’ve all noticed acne treatments that seem to just make the problem worse by over-drying our skin or by simply becoming ineffective after a week of use. Commonly used steroid treatments for painful, irritating rashes including psoriasis, lichen sclerosus and dermatitis often have a similar counterproductive result.
‘Topical corticosteroids’, or “topical steroids” for short, are recommended and prescribed by physicians as a solution for many patients dealing with...

Think you’re the only one feeling chilly this winter?
When it gets cold, we bundle up, but what about plants? There are lots of plants that need to stay healthy even in the winter so they can go into the skin care products that keep you healthy.
Jojoba seed oil is extracted from the seeds of the jojoba plant. The oil is strikingly similar to the natural moisturizer our bodies produce from our sebaceous glands called sebum, which protects and waterproofs our skin and hair.

But these people are forced into a life of the modern day where prosperity seems unreachable and daily living is a constant battle. The government changeovers and modernizing of their cultures seem to only take things away and trigger endless heartache and pain for these families simply wanting to make...

According to a 2009 American Psychological Association (APA) survey, 42 percent of Americans report that their stress has increased since the previous year.
When we feel stressed, our bodies ultimately don’t see our skin as important. Have you noticed people around you, or yourself for that matter, who are stressed for long periods of time often appear pale or sick?

I hope you all take some time to appreciate the beauty that is music.

If only we could just lie around like those lazy plants and have everything we need brought straight to us. When a houseplant isn’t looking so hot, you rush to bring it more water and adjust its location for optimal sunlight. We rarely give our personal health that sort of attention. Our skin requires a bunch of different nutrients to be healthy and radiant. Sadly, we have to do a little more than plants to get all the nutrients our bodies and skin need. But, we don’t have to work as hard as you may think.
Here’s a list of some key...
