Would you like to look your chronological age?

This week, Joan bought a new Omron BMI machine that also can give you your biological age. So last thursday, a few of us tested to see if our bodies were younger or older than our biological age.

For some like me and Michelle, we were 6 years younger than our biological age, but for others who didn't take their anti-oxidants, some were up to 10 years older.

Same with your skin, if you nourish well from the inside, it will only show on the outside. So to have good skin, make sure you drink enough water and take your anti-oxidants everyday.

Some of the excellent anti-oxidants to keep your skin young and smooth include:-

Bio-C - 4 different forms of natural vitamin C
Daily Produce 24 - plant chemicals from 24 colourful fruits and vegetables
SuperChlorophyll - chlorophyllin from Alfalfa - the king of herbs
Salmon Omega 3 oil - keeps your skin smooth and shinning.

Yes you can get the cheap alternatives from the pharmacy or supermarket, but those are sold based on price and not quality. Just remember this simple logic, what is cheap is seldom good and what is good is seldom cheap, for quality is rememberred, long after price is forgotten.

And if your cheap supplements don't help, better save your money for the botox and face lifts and expensive cosmetic surgery, peeling and skin treatments when you reach your mid 40's to 50's.

Yes, everyone can have smooth, problem-free, flawless, even skin tones, firm and tightened skin, from your face, neck and all the body parts that defy gravity with age.

Beautiful skin begins within

Most ladies buy their skincare based on celebrity appeal or the free lipstick or gift. What a terrible reason to buy a particular brand, dont you think?

Over the last 8 years, I've been suprised as ladies keep changing their skincare brands every 2 years. Don't they realise by now, that unless they take care of within, it cannot show up on their skin.

Your skin is the largest organ of your body and the condition of your skin, depends very much on your how clean your blood is and how alkaline your blood is. With a regular detox and acid alkaline balance, you can enjoy softer, smoother, clearer and problem free skin, everyday.

Red Clover Plus - blood and liver cleanser
SuperChlorophyll - alkaline balancer

The Basics of Acne Break-outs

After receiving so many questions related to ACNE, it is with pleasure that I highlight the basics of breakouts in this brief, yet informative article.

Acne is a disease and arguably one of the most complex diseases to treat. It is physically and emotionally devastating. There is no single disease that I can think of that causes more emotional damage or more insecurity and feelings of inferiority. Ultimately, hormones are usually to blame.

Increased production of sex hormones is the primary stimulus, especially testosterone. These androgens enter the blood stream and affect the sebaceous glands in the follicles of the skin. The sebaceous glands secrete sebum, which softens and lubricates the skin, however, the overproduction of these androgens stimulate the glands to produce more sebum. Ultimately, this sebum moves toward the skins surface and this is where the complications occur.

The follicle starts to get "plugged" with hair, sebum, bacteria, dead skin cells and other debris. The plug swells as the material accumulates and is pushed out to the surface of the skin resulting in a whitehead. When this whitehead reaches the surfaces and oxidizes, in conjunction with the presence of melanin, we have a blackhead.

A microorganism, such as P. Acnes, consumes the sebum and release enzymes, which break down the fatty acids further irritating the skin. The tissue reddens, becomes inflamed and papules appear. The body goes into overdrive trying to defend itself with white blood cells and as these white blood cells die, pimples and nodules start to develop.

Beneficial treatments I recommend are 2 prong - Nutritional and Skincare.

Nutritional:-

Do an internal cleansing using Nature's Tea, Red Clover Plus, Paraway Plus and SuperChlorophyll for 30 days.

After cleansing, drink Superchlorophyll and LifAloe daily, to balance the high acidity levels.

Skincare:-

Day time - cleanse face using a mild Creamy Cleanser, Hydrating Refiner and apply Dr Berman's Aboriginal Gold Skin Comforting creme.

Night Time - cleanse face using a mild Creamy Cleanser, Hydrating Refiner and apply the Anti-bacterial, Anti-septic Green Tea Oil.

Twice weekly - apply Dr Berman's Mineral Mask to draw out the toxins from the face.

You will stop the acne break-outs and will smoothen the skin, reduce the pores and lighten the scars with this simple skincare regime.

What about pimples around the chin area?

I've been asked many times about pimples appearing around the chin area, long after the teenage years!.

I see lots of ladies with this similar problem area, and my advice is this - wash your mouth and chin area after each meal, and make sure your partner washes his beard before kissing. hehehe.

Seriously now, the main reason pimples appear around the chin area is due to a toxic liver. So if you drink alcohol, or take lots of panadol or anti-boitics in your younger years. it's time to do a liver cleanse.

There are 2 supplements from USA that do a safe and effective job to cleanse your liver and you should consider it seriously.

SuperChlorophyll is chlorophyllin from Alfalfa and Red Clover Plus is a combination of 14 different herbs, to nourish and cleanse the liver.

I've written a blog on the 17 reasons you should drink Superchlorophyll - go read it here.

You can say goodbye to your pimples around your chin area permanently!
