<p><i>Are you sick of fine lines and grey hairs?</i> Do you want to have the energy you had when you were younger? No matter why aging bothers you, there is something you can do to help. Read on to learn some of the best advice on dealing with the way age changes you.</p>
<p>Facial care products that you already use on your face work great on your hands as well. Hands go through pretty much the same conditions as your face does, especially harmful sun ray conditions over extended periods of time. Use these cremes, lotions and other products that you use on your face on your hands.</p>
<p>Eating a nutritious diet is an essential component in healthy aging. You want to eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grain and fiber; this type of diet will give your body the fuel it needs to allow you to do all the things that you want to do. You can even swap recipes or cook with your friends to make the process fun.</p>
<p>Aging gracefully is everyone’s goal in life. A great way to start on that path is adopt a healthy diet – and it’s never too late to start. By eating five fruits and vegetables, at least three servings of whole grains, and drinking five to eight glasses of eight ounce water a day, you will be giving your body the proper nutrients it needs to begin the aging process gracefully. There are many easy ways to get fruits and vegetables too – have you tried <b>juicing</b>?</p>
<p>Eat fresh food! Wanting to slow down the aging process? One of the simplest things you can do is to eat a variety of fruits and vegetables. As a person gets older, fewer calories are needed! In addition, the best type of foods to eat is foods rich in nutrients, such as fruits and vegetables.</p>
<p>Spend more time with cheerful people in your golden years. People who are depressed or complain all the time might dampen your spirits. You do not want to be pulled down by them. When you are around cheerful people, they can lift up your spirits and remind you that life is full of joy and love.</p>

Let These Tips Help Youhttps://www.theoraclemag.com/profiles/blogs/having-a-hard-time-dropping-weight-let-these-tips-help-you2016-09-11T07:00:00.000Z2016-09-11T07:00:00.000ZPrince Malachi The Firsthttps://www.theoraclemag.com/members/Malachi<div><h2 class="entry-title"><a href="http://woodlandsweightlossclinic.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/weight-loss-tips.jpg" target="_blank" style="font-size:13px;"><img src="http://woodlandsweightlossclinic.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/weight-loss-tips.jpg" class="align-center" alt="weight-loss-tips.jpg" /></a></h2>
<div class="entry"><h2>If you are like everyone else, then you have probably struggled with weight loss in some point in your life. Whether it is because of poor diet, lack of exercise or emotional instability, it is impertinent. Weight loss is manageable, but you have to be dedicated to the cause. This article will set you on that path.</h2>
<p> </p>
<p>It is important that you get enough sleep when you are trying to lose weight. Not getting enough sleep every night will decrease your energy throughout the day. When you don’t have enough energy, you body will want to make up for it by making you hungry. Getting enough sleep each night will help you continue your weight loss plan successfully.</p>
<p>Don’t compare yourself to others, everybody is different. It stands to reason that everybody will lose weight differently. The key is in finding your triggers. Keep your goal in sight, and do whatever you have to do to meet that goal. <i>When you start looking at someone else’s habits, you are only going to become discouraged and quit.</i></p>
<br />
<p><i>If you are searching for a quality snack to munch on when you have sugar cravings, try berries.</i>Strawberries, blueberries and blackberries, are outstanding fruits to have, as they contain a rich level of antioxidants to restore proper body function. They also contain very little fat and calories, aiding your weight loss program.</p>
<p>In order to help yourself stay focused on your weight loss goals, try setting weekly and monthly short-term goals as well as your final long term goal. This will keep you from getting frustrated and instead help you focus on the progress that you have been making all along.</p>
<p>To assist in staying motivated, consider stepping on that scale on a daily basis. In general, weighing yourself once a week is a good way to measure your weight-loss progress. However, a recent study has suggested that people who weigh themselves daily tend to be more successful at staying on track with their weight-loss plan.</p>
<p>Eat the whole fruit as a great alternative to drinking only the fruit juice. Fresh is always better, especially when it comes to fruit. Fresh fruits are filled with nutrients and vitamins that are lost or decreased in the juicing process, so if you want the most nutritious option, fresh fruit is a great juice replacement that is just as refreshing.</p>
<p>When you are beginning a healthy diet, be sure to look at all of your options. Try to find recipes for new, healthy food to eat. If you eat the same things over and over, you will get tired of them. </p>

<div class="entry"><p>Most people think that high blood pressure is an integral part of getting older. But actually it is not 100 % true. Let me ask you: do you know that if the blood pressure becomes lower it reduces the risk of heart disease and stroke in half or even more. Besides, it is known that many people with high blood pressure still feel great. But actually high blood pressure is bad for your arteries. Under extra pressure, the plaque may rupture. On the other hand, if you have problems with kidneys, the latter may produce too many hormones that may tighten the blood vessels, constricting the arteries, and, as the result, increasing the pressure. The constriction of the blood vessels may also increase due to the stress.</p>
<p>So if you are looking for <a href="http://www.vitalfoodstore.com/high-blood-pressure-remedies-heart-remedies-s/29.htm" target="_blank">heart remedy</a> in order to reduce the pressure, firstly look through these tips. As you know, most of us consume more calories from fat. In order to lower the high blood pressure and get your cholesterol down, you will need to reduce the consumption of fats down to 10 percent of calories. This can be performed quite easily: all you need is to check the labels on the products. On most of them the fat content is mostly shown. The next step is to increase the physical activity. Even half an hour of activity a day will do much. However, it shouldn’t be too active: ride an exercise bicycle, just walk, work in the garden, or mow the lawn. This will also help you to reduce your weight as the overweight is the common reason for high blood pressure.</p>
<p>The next step will be to increase the disease-fighting antioxidants in your system. The thing is that free radicals block your body’s production of nitric oxide and prostacyclin. This is not good as they help to relax blood vessels to help keep <a href="http://www.vitalfoodstore.com/high-blood-pressure-remedies-heart-remedies-s/29.htm" target="_blank">high blood pressure</a> down. In order to get lacking antioxidants you will need to follow the diet consisting vitamins C and E and beta-carotene. To the latter belong broccoli, carrots, and sweet potatoes. On the other hand it is rather important to eat fresh fruit and vegetables, particularly bananas and potatoes as they are rich in potassium that is so important for blood pressure.</p>

<div class="entry"><p>The idea of fasting is still tied to the spiritual and religious practices. When many people first hear about fasting, they immediately relate the term to the Catholics who practice this during Lent or to Muslims during Ramadan. In ancient times when people fasted they believed that doing so would improve their clarity of thought, and bring spiritual enlightenment and inspiration. In fact fasting is one module of wellness and healing that has mental, spiritual, and physical benefits.</p>
<p>Many people do not fully comprehend the amazing benefit of fasting for health and wellness.</p>
<p>Although many have tried fasting but not everyone understands its concept and benefits, this series will take a look at fasting its importance and benefits for wellness and health, and specifically weight-loss.</p>
<p>As you read on, you will find a lot of information on the topic. Part 1 however just lays the foundation of why we need to fast. This helps us to understand the reasoning behind fasting for total wellness…spiritual, mental, and physical.</p>
<p>Take note however that results will vary with each person as each and every one of us response differently. Two people can be subjected to the same conditions and their reactions can be quite different.</p>
<p><em>“In my opinion, the greatest discovery by modern man is the power to rejuvenate himself physically, mentally, and spiritually with Rational Fasting.”</em> <strong><em>The Miracle of Fasting </em></strong><em>by Paul Bragg, ND, PhD</em></p>
<p><strong>The Body<br /></strong></p>
<p>The body is a physical structure of a living thing. It is made up of cells, tissues, organs and systems that work hand in hand. They form a complex system of relationship that the absence of one greatly cripples the entire body. The loss of an eye makes it hard for our other systems to grasp the events happening around and must rely to the remaining senses.</p>
<p>Our body is one wonderful machine, a wonder of science. The complexity of it and how it is able to perform so many things at a time often leads it to being called the “wonder machine”.</p>
<p>Consider that we frequently defy the laws set by the Creator, which we call natural laws, when failing to care for our body. And when our body seems to be slowing down, many simply revive it with caffeine or some similar stimulant time and again.</p>
<p>Many people eat like there is no tomorrow of the body’s remarkable ability to handle such a burden and keep ticking. The body will simply digest, absorb and excrete what we eat. Many drink and smoke because the body continues to function around the clock.</p>
<p>Yet do we also know that too much abuse of the body is also bad. Our body is just like any machine…in that once it reaches its limit, it breaks down. Too much alcohol, unhealthy food and lifestyle combined with stress is extremely harmful to our body. As we age, the maximum capacity of our body will only reach its peak once and will decrease over time. Because of the decrease, our body becomes prone to different ailments and sickness, we become weak over time and if we don’t heed the pleas of our aging body, it can actually cost us our lives.</p>
<p>It must be remembered that our body should be handled with care.</p>
<p><strong>Stress and the human body</strong></p>
<p>What is stress? It is said that stress is a condition that almost everyone can relate in an everyday sense. Stress is not new and we are no stranger to stress. Almost everything and every where there is stress, there is stress in the workplace, at home at school etc. However once stress reaches a level wherein it has a negative effect on the body it is more accurately defined as “distress”.</p>
<p>How people react to stress differs. Stress is caused by different factors and different people react diffrently. Our personality and emotions, not to mention or spirituality, will determine how much the effect of stress on our body will be. Some people handle stress well. These people are able to meet up with deadlines calmly and still give positive results.</p>
<p>Nevertheless the physical effects of stress on our body can be very to both damaging our emotional and physical health. While the effects are subtle, the long term effects of stress are deadly. It has become a mainstream reality to accept the fact that stress shortens our lives. Increased risk of heart disease, nervous breakdowns, stomach ulcers, tension headaches, and an increased susceptibility to infection are just a few of the things that stress can do to us. No single effect of stress is beneficial to us.</p>
<p>Although stress in the short run can have positive effects such as the ability to react to the situation quickly and resolve it as immediately as possible, it is never good in the long run.</p>
<p>Stress affects our health, body and mind to such great extent that we are crippled by its effects over time. Some of the signs of stress include short-temper, anxiety, impatience, low moral, temperature changes, blood pressure increase, and migraines and so on. Yet there are times when the stress is not so intense and that person has a higher threshold, the stress condition may actually be of beneficial results that will end shortly with complete relaxation.</p>
<p>Most often that not, insomnia and depression are the most common effects of stress on us. Because of the two, our mental and physical state is affected. Likewise, our eating habits are often affected which leads to low energy levels and thus making us unproductive.</p>
<p><strong>Fasting…has your lifestyle laid a toxic foundation?</strong></p>
<p>It is often emphasized that a healthy lifestyle is always the ideal, one especially today that health care costs are out of control.</p>
<p>With the fast paced life, we depend on processed food and fast foods. We have bombarded ourselves with medicines and drugs and this with less exercise.</p>

<p><i>If you want to juice while pregnant, ask your doctor about the fruit, vegetables, and other spices and additives you use to ensure they’re all healthy for your baby, too.</i> For example, there are some herbs that are often found in teas which can lead to spontaneous abortion! Double check to make sure that what you ingest is okay.</p>
<p>Getting into juicing can not only make you healthier, but can be a fun way to create delicious and nutritious drinks for you and your family. If you can get yourself a juicer, you can reap the benefits of a healthier way to drink juice. Plus, you’ll know it wasn’t made in a factory somewhere. Unless you have a juicer in a factory you work at!</p>
<p>If you want to juice leafy green vegetables, roll them together in a ball before placing them in the juicer chute. Follow with vegetables that are more firm. You should alternate between the leafy and firm vegetables if you are making a large quantity.</p>
<p>Prune juice is a great way to lose weight or add as a laxative. If you need to lose weight, or need a laxative, prune juice is great. If the juice is too thick it can be diluted with water or watermelon juice. The quinic and benzoic acids in the prunes are what make it such a great laxative.</p>
<p>The best time to fire up your juicer is a half hour before any meal. Drink the fresh juice on an empty stomach. Drinking juice on an empty stomach is helpful to absorb the most nutrients quickly and effectively. Fruit juices should be consumed in the mornings because digestive energy is the lowest in the mornings.</p>
<p>Cucumber is a great vegetable to use in your juices. They are high in silica, this is a mineral that is good for tendons, ligaments, cartilage, muscles and bones, it also strengthens connective tissue. It is important, though, that you keep the skin, because that is where the majority of the nutrients are.</p>

<p><em>Editor’s note: It’s always good to stay hydrated, but it’s absolutely essential in the hot weather, where you can become thirsty without even realizing it. Here, from the experts at Go4Life, a division of the National Institute on Aging, offer background information, as well as some tips, to help you make sure you’re drinking enough healthy liquids:</em></p>
<p>Water helps you digest your food, absorb nutrients, and then get rid of the unused waste.But as we age, some people may lose their sense of thirst. To further complicate matters, some medicines might make it even more important to have plenty of fluids.</p>
<p>Drinking enough fluids every day also is essential if you exercise regularly. Check with your doctor, however, if you’ve been told to limit how much you drink.</p>
<p>Here are some strategies for staying hydrated:</p>
<p>Try to add liquids throughout the day.</p>
<p>Take sips from a glass of water, milk, or juice between bites during meals.</p>
<p>Have a cup of low-fat soup as an afternoon snack.</p>
<p>Drink a full glass of water if you need to take a pill.</p>
<p>Have a glass of water before you exercise or go outside to garden or walk, especially on a hot day.</p>
<p>Remember, water is a good way to add fluids to your daily routine without adding calories.</p>
<p>Drink fat-free or low-fat milk, or other drinks without added sugars.</p>

<p>If you came here looking for advice on how you can benefit from the power of juicing, then you have come to the right spot. <i>This article is packed full of great ideas and suggestions, as well as information on how juicing at home can benefit you and your health.</i></p>
<p>If you are <b>juicing</b> for nutrition instead of weight loss, consider adding a source of healthy fat with the vegetables for a hearty juice. Some great raw fat options are coconut butter, cream, avocado and flax seeds. Also consider consuming all or most of the pulp for a filling and satisfying snack.</p>
<p>If you don’t feel you’re getting an adequate amount of a vitamin in your diet, don’t bother buying a supplement! Instead, buy a juicer and do your research to find out which fruit and vegetable are rich in that vitamin. For example, if you’re low in calcium you should juice dark green vegetables like kale.</p>
<p>When storing the juice you’ve made, make sure the container is opaque. Sunlight and even indoor light, can cause the nutrients in the juice to convert or break down, so having it in an air-tight container that permits very little light to enter will ensure peak freshness when you drink it.</p>
<p>When concocting juices intended for children, it is a good idea to keep in mind that children will more eagerly consume the juice if it is in the form of a smoothie. They will also generally enjoy juices that taste sweeter. One fantastic mixture that many children will love is a strawberry and apple smoothie.</p>
<p>It is is better to use vegetables when you are juicing than fruits. Although the juices from a fruit are easier to ingest and go down easier, they also contain more sugar than vegetables do. Also, fruits are able to better cleanse than body when they are eaten in whole form.</p>
<p>One of the great advantages to drinking natural juiced drinks daily is that it helps cure a variety of different ailments. For example, cabbage juice helps heal different types of ulcers. For this, it is necessary to consult a medical professional first.</p>
<p>To get the best out of your juicer and to guarantee the tastiest juice, be sure to buy the freshest produce available. Always use the vegetables or fruit within three to four days to get the best flavor. Also, make sure to clean the produce thoroughly.</p>

<p><i><br />If you are looking for a way to make a powerful difference in how you feel and look, then look no further than juicing.</i> Making your own juice blends at home, gives you the control over what goes into your body and how it tastes. Keep reading for tips on how you can get started.</p>
<p>If you are going to be <b>juicing</b> do some research first. Certain combinations of fruits and vegetables when mixed together in a juice are phenomenal, which can be seen with the V8 companies’ success. On the other hand, certain combinations are so bad they will make you gag, so make sure to read up on what you are mixing.</p>
<p>Wheat-grass has many health benefits such as cleansing the lymph system, and removing toxic metals from your cells. You can only ingest wheat-grass through juice, so juicing can be extremely beneficial. Be careful because wheat-grass does have a very strong taste. It is best to start out a little at a time. Each time you juice, just gradually add a little more.</p>
<p>In regards to juicing, it is important to consider the fact that while this will provide many benefits to your health and overall well being, it is not the only solution. This is critical because if you are not taking care of your body in other ways, you may diminish or eliminate the effects you are receiving from consuming your home made juices.</p>
<p>A good tip to help maintain your juicer is to remove the pits from various fruits. Apple pits can ruin your juice if you forget to remove them. Other fruits such as plums and peaches have pits that should be removed as well in order to protect the juicer.</p>
<p>Stick with fruits that have higher water contents. Fruits that have low-water content are much harder to juice; they clog up your juicer and require many more pieces of fruit to make even a small serving of juice. If you insist on using fruits such as avocados or bananas, make sure to blend them first in a blender, and then add them to your juicer with other fruits with a higher water content.</p>
<p>When tying to develop a juice that tastes great and has the health benefits you are looking for, consider the sugar content of the vegetables you are using. Vegetables that grow underneath the ground are higher in sugar than those that grow above ground. This is a good fact to remember when trying to adjust the sweetness of vegetable juices.</p>

<p>Looking for a way to get a lot more fruits and vegetables into your diet, but not a big fan of either one? Consider juicing as an option. <i>You can cover up the flavors that you don’t really like and still get all the health benefits from it.</i> Use the ideas here, for getting started.</p>
<p>Stick with fruits that have higher water contents. Fruits that have low-water content are much harder to juice; they clog up your juicer and require many more pieces of fruit to make even a small serving of juice. If you insist on using fruits such as avocados or bananas, make sure to blend them first in a blender, and then add them to your juicer with other fruits with a higher water content.</p>
<p>When you’re <b>juicing</b>, don’t try to remove every bit of pulp from your juice. Pulp adds fiber, vitamins, and minerals to your diet. Leaving some in your juice also adds to the flavor and texture of what you are drinking. You can always add a little water if the pulp is too much.</p>
<p>By juicing fruits and vegetables you are basically pre-digesting it so that your stomach will have a far easier time passing the nutrients directly from the juice itself to your cells. This will provide an almost immediate boost to your energy levels, your health, and your overall sense of well being.</p>
<p>If you’d like to sweeten vegetable juice, reach to beets or apples. Apples sweeten everything without adding a strong flavor that can turn you off. Beets are a great sweetener as they ARE vegetables, making them healthy and lower in calories than their fruit counterparts. Carrots are another lower-calorie option, and they keep blood sugar levels balanced, too!</p>
<p>Make sure to let your juicer rest and clean out extra pulp if you are making a large batch of juice, especially when you are using harder fruits. Juicers tend to be expensive, and you do not want to burn your juicer out by overworking it or clogging the juicer.</p>

<div class="entryBody" title=""><div class="content"><h2>Drinking juice is one of the easiest ways to get your daily requirement of fruits and vegetables. Store bought juice can be expensive and is often made with preservatives that make it less healthy. This article has tips on how you can make your own juice from fresh fruits and vegetables.</h2>
<p></p>
<p>When preparing for a juice diet, make sure to stock a LOT of fresh fruits and vegetables! On average, it takes 4.4 pounds of raw fruits and vegetables to make just a single quart of juice, so you’ll need lots. Also make sure to get a large variety of ingredients so that you don’t get bored with the same old juice.</p>
<p>Look for your favorite fruits and vegetables on sale to keep down your cost. A pound of produce only produces about a cup of juice so, unfortunately, taking care of your health can get expensive. Check out farmers’ markets, and shop the sales at your major grocery stores.</p>
<p>Juicing is a great way to drink all the nutrients you need for the day, but you also have to be conscious of the amount of sugars you’re taking in. If you’re having a drink with a lot of fruit or high-glycemic vegetables, drink less than you would if it were mostly low-glycemic items.</p>
<p>Instead of pulling out your juicer every time you want fresh juice, make extra and store it. In order to properly store juice you will want to put it in a opaque, airtight container and make sure that there is no extra air space in that container. Try using distilled water to make up the extra space.</p>
<p>Use your juicing as part of a weight loss plan to see big results. Fresh juice made from your fruits and veggies alone tends to be low in calories. It can be a very helpful addition to your weight loss plans. The fibrous nature of most veggies will help you fill up without adding in too many extra calories.</p>
<p>If you’re going to start a juicing diet, it may be helpful to start with a few days of eating primarily fruits and vegetables before going over to all-juice. This helps reduce dependence on sugar, flour, and other common diet staples that can make a juice diet difficult to swallow.</p>

<p>Personal health is something that has always been extremely important to you. You are always looking for new ways to improve yourself and live a healthier life. <i>Use the information in this article to give yourself a good background on juicing and see if it is a good option for you.</i></p>
<p>Beware the efficiency of calorie intake from <b>juicing</b>! When you mash up foods like fruit and vegetables, they become much easier to digest. This means that everything they contain, from vitamins and nutrients to sugar and calories, will be taken into your body in full. Watch how many calories the items you juice contain to make sure you don’t stop your weight loss.</p>
<p>Ask your friends and family if they’d like to go in on purchases in bulk at local farms with you so you can buy more and get larger discounts. Apple farms, for example, will sell you bushel after bushel for decreasing costs per pound. Take a few cars up, load the back with apples, and share with everyone! They don’t have to be juicers to enjoy fresh produce.</p>
<p>Store all your fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator, especially in the summertime. Juicing depends on fresh produce and leaving them out starts the process of decay more quickly. Keep your produce nice and cool until you eat it so that you can preserve as many vitamins as you can.</p>
<p>You should try to drink your vegetable juice at room temperature. This means you should take your vegetables out of the fridge and place on the counter for a few hours before juicing. Ideally and if you can, leave your vegetables out overnight to ensure they are at room temperature.</p>
<p>If storing your juice, use only air tight containers to avoid the damage from oxidation. Refrigerate your juice and as a little helper, add in just a little bit of lemon juice to help keep your juice as fresh as possible. Following these steps should lead you to still have tasty, healthy juice even hours after you did the juicing.</p>

<h2>Are you having trouble knowing how to properly juice, or good methods used in juicing? One thing you have to note about juicing is that it’s something where the more you know the more you can apply. If you want to make sure you’re doing juicing to the best of your ability gather tips than can help you in the process, tips like those in this article.</h2>
<p></p>
<p>A great juicing tip is to be adventurous with the ingredients you decide to put in your juicer. Try adding in fruits or vegetables that you’re too afraid to eat on their own. The great thing about juicing is that it’s very easy to mask bad taste by adding another ingredient.</p>
<p>For heavy and dark vegetable juices, use apple and carrots as the sweetener and avoid other fruits. Other fruits do not go along with dark greens very well. Carrots contain a lot of sugar and apple juice will complement the vegetables instead of clashing with them. Apples and carrots are the perfect base for mixed fruit and vegetable juices also.</p>
<p>Change the juices you make every day to make sure you’re getting all the nutrients possible. You’re also more likely to get bored of the juice you’re drinking if you have the same taste over and over again, so mix it up! Go online to look up tried-and-true recipes, or ask family and friends for their advice.</p>
<p>Use a variety of fruits and vegetables in your juices. Not only will this keep the tastes exciting, but you will be able to get a wider range of vitamins and minerals from your juices. Try one new ingredient a week and if you have an allergic reaction, you’ll know which ingredient caused it.</p>
<p>Keep things SIMPLE when starting to juice! <i>Trying to dive in head first can leave you frustrated, so start with a few items you know you already like and move up from there.</i> Add one new item to your repertoire every few days, like kale or beetroot. When you feel you have a handle on things, move up to spices and other additives like wheat grass or ginger!</p>
<p>If you’re looking for something sweet and healthy to add to your juice, try adding some coconut. Coconut will sweeten your juice by giving it a tasty flavor, and it can also be a great source of fat. You can add whole coconut or you can shred it.</p>
