Ever wonder why woman had age spots on their face? I was told by my beautician that aging spot is caused by the UV from sun and also florescent light.  To avoid aging spots from forming, apply sun block lotion on the face preferable somewhere near +SPF 30 onwards.  Another reason was told.  Aging spot could be caused from birth control pills.  On the safe side, I am taking both the advise.  Can’t afford to take the risk!

Why does it take this long for people to realised that Shisha smoking is equivalent dangerous to cigaratte or cigar?  No matter what it is, they all uses tobacco and is deadly in any form.  Shisha or sometime known as hookah is a  flavoured tobacco and contained opium or hashish which can get addictive. Smoking Shisha for hours is like smoking 400 cigarettes and to make it worst, by sharing the pipe, contagious diseases is passing from one to another.  So if you wanna die young, might as well make it luxury like smoking a hoya de monterrey.

In Yoga, we have all types of various poses that help fighting toward aging.  Like the headstand.  If you want to look younger than your age, do the headstand for 15minutes per day.  I also read of hgh releasers (human growth hormone) that does the same trick. Beware of bogus stuff.  Not only they are ineffective, it might be dangerous too.  IF you are serious about taking HGH, check the ingredients and google for review.

I can’t tell you the answer as I have not taken any diet pills before.  But I do heard from friends and even some celebrities claimed diet pills that actually work.  My type of dieting is exercises and watch what you eat. You are what you eat.  What is the point when you spent a large sum of money eating one heap mountain of food and the next minute spending another heap of money buying diet pills?  So if you want to loose some weight, first and foremost, reduce your food intake.

For flabby tummy, it is always to my general knowledge that after you lose belly fat you need to firmed it up.  But can the firming of skin done thru exercises?  Well, it can but the result is very minimal only.  Usually exercises is to burn to fats but they never work as firming the flabby skin.  Massaging firming lotion come in handy in this case.  Just so you know, there are always a time for pampering after you work like pig.

Sometimes, it is practical to have a basic gym equipment at home like the treadmills, ellipticals or spinner for people like me that have to juggle between kids, home, work and exercise.  Having a bicycle (real ones) is not a bad idea, but getting injuries from cycling is high especially with the traffic and crime rates. I rather use the spinner at the comfort of home while babysitting.  Not bad of killing two birds with a stone huh.

There is this shop I frequented called GNC Live Well who sell vitamins.  I was always curious and wonder what is the purpose of all those big and gigantic bottles of supplements that looks like milk powder or health drink that labeled like super pump 250.  Found out finally that they are for body builders who wants to boost up their muscle.  I wonder how effective it is?

Remember a while ago I blogged about Kenko Diet Plum that is good to ease constipation?  Well, I forgot to mentioned that (or maybe I did) the plum is not suitable for pregnant ladies.  There’s really nothing much to help except to eat high fibre food and avoid sitting on the toilet bowl for long period to avoid hemorrhoid or better known as piles too.  To ease the discomfort, hemorrhoid cream is the solution.

There are a few factors that contribute to one having cholesterol like genetically, eating high fat food, smoking or high blood pressure.  Sometimes, controlling our diet and exercising is not enough.  There are supplements which can help to lower down the cholesterol. I wonder is there any traditional ways to do it?  I was told, eating an apple a day in the morning on empty stomach, keeps the doctor away.  A cup of oat is helpful too.  Care to share your method of cholesterol treatment?

Went for my half yearly followup on the fibroid and it seems that the size has shrink from 33mm to 25mm.  Yay!  And that many, many, cyst has disappear altogether.  Double yay!

When I first found out I have fibroid, I was advise by friends to consume less red meat, and I did.  I was a Flexitarian for almost a year now. If all these diet  is effective, it sure help to stagnant or slow down the growth of the fibroid.  Another food that you should avoid is the ‘Bak Foong Yuen’ mainly consumed by Chinese female after their menses. Some believe it will help the fibroid growth by two fold which is not a good thing.

It is so common nowadays to hear people die of diseases or sickness.  For example the new disease called Swine Flu or the uncommon cancer like mesothelioma.  Now you know why it is so important to eat healthy and live happy.
