Swine flu - My way of dealing with it

With the swine flu spreading fast, it is even more important to boost our immune system and fight against any virus that might get close to it. I am reading a newspaper today and it advised people to stop drinking coffee, stop taking refined white sugar, stop feeling bad about yourself as if you're feeling harassed and anxious, it can manifest in a sore throat or a cold and etc..

I am sure there is a point on all those measures. But that is if you can change who you are and the way you live. I have always suffered from cold or flu which have been so bad that block my ears each single time, never mind the normal headache and sore throat.

I decided that I need to do something about it especially in the face of the fast-moving Swine flu pandemic. I start to get up early morning, do the walking and running for about 30 minutes before work. That is persistently every day. The miracle is that the more you see the appearance of glowing skin and your toned body, the more you feel good, confident and really enjoy what you are doing. It is this uplifting spirit and the naturally boosted fitness that truly make the defence. I still have a cold or flu here and there, but no way near as bad as before. Helped with a few drops of the organic Echinacea tincture, it normally goes away quickly.

 

Small little wonders - organic home remedy tips

 
Dr. Francesca Fusco, a Manhattan dermatologist and associate professor at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York, points out that a number of home remedies can work effectively in treating what troubles you.
 
 

i Tomato for burns
Fusco says the lycopene in a tomato helps decrease inflammation. In Israel, people are actually growing tomatoes with high lycopene content, she says. "Tomato on a burn works for burns that are first-degree or less. So if the skin is red or irritated, it might help." Once it blisters, you'll need antibiotic ointment.
Treatment: Place a slice of tomato on the burn.
 

ii A tea party for a cut
Tea bags cause blood vessels to constrict, which will help stop the bleeding of small cuts, Fusco says.
Treatment: Steep a tea bag in a cup for a couple of minutes. Make sure it's not hot, and then apply it directly to the wound.
 

iii Apple cider vinegar for dandruff
Dandruff is caused by an overgrowth of yeast on the scalp, Fusco says. Among the health benefits of apple cider vinegar: It inhibits the growth of the yeast.
Treatment: Shampoo hair, use conditioner and then rinse the scalp with apple cider vinegar, followed by a cold rinse.
 


 

Eczema and Hand Washing

 

"I've noticed about a 25 percent increase in the number of patients with hand eczema in the past year," said dermatologist Dr. Sherry Novick Ingraham on 8th July 2009 on CBS New York.

 

Hand eczema is normally characterized by red, swollen and dry, crusty skin. Studies show that hand eczema is the most common occupational disease, and accounts for up to 80 percent of all cases of skin inflammation. Every time we wash our hands we actually strip off our skin's protective barrier which leaves the hand exposed to bacteria and germs

 

 

 



 
 

NEW!

Chemicals from underarm deodorants and other cosmetics can build up inside the body" reported by BBC as "British Researchers discovered synthetic chemical parabens (a preservative) in tissue taken from women with breast cancer".

The fact that these synthetic products are appearing in our bodies - whether it actually causes cancer or not - is cause for concern.We already take many chemicals into our bodies from the environment. So it is best to use the natural and organic products where we can.

 

 

 

More and more people are choosing to use natural organic deodorants for health reasons. This organic Wildrose Deodorant Roll-on is a great natural deodorant for ladies. Lovely wildrose aroma.

Womens Environemtal Network - Get Lippy Article

The human desire to look, smell and feel good is one of our oldest and most ingrained. For centuries, people have used cosmetics* to enhance their appearance. But nowadays we are told that our body is no longer a temple, but
merely a wild animal which must be tamed, or a canvas on which to paint.

So to prevent it from developing hand eczema or deteriorating on its current condition, it is paramount to use a non-chemical cleanser or an eczema-friendly soap. Also keep a small pot of a non-chemical moisturizer with you wherever you go. Every time you wash your hands, re-apply the moisturizer
