			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://funblogspot.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/akina.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-146" title="akina" src="http://funblogspot.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/akina-300x300.jpg" alt="akina" width="300" height="300" /></a>For most women, part of their morning and evening routines involve a skincare regiment of applying cremes, moisturizers, tonics, lotions, and the like. Why do women put themselves through this? To combat the signs of aging, and to maintain youthful looks and beautiful skin! However, how many women consider what is in the products they are using?</p>
<p>Some women probably do not realize that what they are putting on their skin may actually be undermining what they are trying to prevent to begin with. In fact, the average woman puts twelve products on her skin daily, most of which contain harmful chemical preservatives. Dr. Myron Wentz, founder and chairperson of USANA Health Sciences has this to say about beauty in the June/July 2005 issue of the &#8220;USANA Health Sciences&#8221; magazine: &#8220;Some say that beauty is only skin deep. Nonsense! I believe that true beauty is a reflection of true health, and true health begins deep inside each and every cell in the body. But true health and true beauty have an outer component, which is why we require protection from environmental insults such as solar radiation, pollutants in our environment and the drying effects of air. . . The fact is, you simply cannot contain a healthy body if your skin isn&#8217;t healthy. And your skin can&#8217;t be healthy if your are subjecting it to toxic substances that are ultimately absorbed into your body.&#8221;</p>
<p>So, what can women do? How can they combat environmental pollutants, the affect of solar radiation, and the drying effects of air? How can they be sure they are using the very best products on their skin so they can be healthy inside and out? Here are 7 tips to assist in this process:</p>
<ol>
<li>Be very aware of what is in skincare products. Use products that are all natural as much as possible.</li>
<li>Look for products that contain Dermal Surface Renewal Technology. DSR smoothes away existing signs of aging such as laugh lines, crows feet, and dullness.</li>
<li>Use products that have regenisomes. Regenisomes penetrate the skin to speed cell renewal after sun exposure. They also use the light of photosomes to undo sun damage, and have ultrasomes to renew skin while sleeping.</li>
<li>Find products with Proteo-C and Proflavonol-T. These two vitamins protect the skin from premature aging caused by the sun, pollution, and other environmental factors. They also provide advanced nutrition to the skin to keep it appearing smooth and firm.</li>
<li>If possible, use products that are paraben free. Parabens are synthetic chemical preservatives that are widely used in personal care products such as shampoos, conditioners, hair styling products, make-up, facial masks, skin lotions and creams, and deodorants. They also are typically found in baby lotions, shampoos, and other personal care products for infants and children. In addition, parabens are in many foods and pharmaceutical products. Researchers are beginning to find parabens in benign and malignant human breast tumors. While some studies have challenged their toxicity in many products and question their long term affect on humans, using products that are paraben free can eliminate the risk of exposure to this harmful chemical.</li>
<li>Drink plenty of water! Water hydrates skin and hair as well as flushes toxins out of the body.</li>
<li>Limit stress or learn to manage it effectively. Stress is harmful both emotionally and physically. Find that stress reliever activity that works best and use it on a daily basis!</li>
</ol>
<p>Follow the above 7 tips to true beauty and health.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://funblogspot.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/stomach.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-68" title="stomach" src="http://funblogspot.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/stomach.jpg" alt="stomach" width="263" height="244" /></a>Acid reflux can happen to anyone. That means babies are not immune to this disease. We all know that acid reflux brings discomfort in those who suffer from it. Acid reflux in infants, for one thing, is a painful disease because infants have weak bodies and their defensive mechanisms are not developed yet.</p>
<p>Acid reflux in infants happen when the baby is full, and when he coughs and cries after being fed. These factors create that added pressure in the upper stomach, which moves the stomach contents to the throat.</p>
<p>Common signs of infants with acid reflux include dramatic loss of weight, continual vomiting, recurrent choking episodes, too much drooling, problems in swallowing, hoarseness, food aversion and chronic ear infection.</p>
<p>While there are noticeable symptoms of acid reflux, some infants may not show signs such as throwing up. It&#8217;s because their tendency is to swallow up the acids instead. This could still cause irritation and, eventually, damage to the esophagus. If you&#8217;d like to see if your baby has silent acid reflux, detect it by using pH probe.</p>
<p>You can make use of certain tests to detect acid reflux in infants. One of which is the barium test wherein the infant has to swallow a little amount of barium. Through this, the physician can see the passage of food outlined by the chemical. However, the doctor will only detect your baby&#8217;s condition successfully in the moment that the child is undergoing acid reflux while being tested. Aside from barium, a radioactive solution could also be made to swallow before an x-ray to see the frequency of acid reflux. An endoscope views the infant&#8217;s mouth, esophagus and the tract of food in the stomach. You should stop acid reflux in infants by making sure he&#8217;s in an upright position when you feed him. The same case is true when changing the diaper, and more especially when he just ate his meal, just when he is still full. Feed him in small meals at short time intervals.</p>
<p>Breastfeeding will also serve as a great help to decrease the vomiting and the symptoms of his acid reflux. Breast milk has been always a great food source for infants, with so many nutrients and value to boost his health. However, the pediatrician can prescribe other medications to give relief to the infant in times of discomfort. The parents must take note of the critical administration of the drug. In case that the particular formula prescribed does not work or results to graver side effects, it is advised to shift to a new one.</p>
