Looking to lose weight? Try eating a big breakfast. "Skipping breakfast puts your body into panic mode, making it hoard calories instead of burn them," explains John Acquaviva, Ph.D. Research suggests filling up on a healthy, hearty breakfast helps you lose about a pound a week. A hearty, healthy breakfast includes one that combines eggs (protein) with oatmeal, whole-grain pancakes or other healthy carbs. I never need an excuse to eat breakfast, it's my favorite meal of the day!

I am in the middle of reading this incredible book called MediSin by Dr. Scott Whitaker, ND & Jose Fleming, CN, MH. Today I don't have a recipe for a facial mask or health tip, I just want to share a powerful excerpt from the book.

"Instead of spending a few dollars a month on nutritional supplements that would prevent these chronic diseases and aggressive behaviors, we end up spending hundreds of billions of dollars a year on building new prisons and treating people with expensive prescriptions and mind-altering drugs. When it comes to children, for example, instead of giving them the good they need to be healthy, which prevents these disorders, we dose them on Ritalin, antidepressants and mind-altering drugs. This is good for the drug pushers (pharmaceutical companies), but it impairs the child's learning capability while at the same time increasing the child's risk of violent behavior and suicide." (MediSin, P. 249-250)

I highly recommend this book. It is very eye opening and explains why we need to get back to the way the Creator intended.

As if we need another reason not to work, here is one more... Researchers found that the stress triggered by 45 mins of computer work caused women to consume 230 more calories at their next meal, compared to women who simply relaxed. The RX to dodge excess pounds: take regular breaks while working. However, if you find that you are too busy to take that time out for yourself, I recommend shaklee's stress relief complex. The stress relief complex:
• Promotes a calm, relaxed state without causing drowsiness*
• Allows you to be more alert and able to concentrate during times of stress*
• Helps blunt cortisol, a stress-response hormone that can affect long-term health*
• Enhances the body’s ability to adapt to everyday stress*

Are you suffering from thinning hair? It could be due to stress, aging, or genetics. I recommend taking a vitamin B complex. The B complex will promote the growth of hair follicle cells and boots the production keratin and collagen, which are the building blocks of hair. Additionally, vitamin D3 promotes healthy hair metabolism, so I recommend getting more sunlight or supplementing with vitamins. Get our B complex and Vitamin D3 by clicking each one.

Do you want to smooth away half of  your cellulite?

A build up of toxins in your system can result in cellulite. The toxins cause the connective tissue to weaken and allows buoyant fat cells to rise to the surface. According to Dr. Laura Skellchock, dermatologist, "a daily massage increases the lymphatic drainage of toxins in trouble areas, which can reduce cellulite by up to 50%". The fix: Apply olive oil to your ankles and massage into your skin in long, deep strokes as you move up your leg.
