Do you suffer with skin disease?

Chinese medicine, as practiced in hospital settings around the world, can be a very effective and safe treatment for many skin ailments, Acne Psoriasis Eczema Rosacea & other skin issues

Exclusively focused on your skin.

Alternative medicine offers an interesting option for taking care of our health, and it can be complimentary to conventional medicine.

Considered mainly as a preventative health-care strategy, alternative medicine includes many different approaches based on historical and cultural traditions around the world.

You’ve surely heard of massage therapy, reiki, acupuncture, homeopathy or Chinese medicine.

These treatments, along with many others, fall into the realm of alternative medicine.

Many people believe these methods of caring for our bodies allow us to avoid health problems, largely because of the client-practitioner relationship.

Practitioners often spend much longer in consultation with a patient, and counsel on lifestyle changes that help reduce stress and anxiety, which are known to contribute to chronic illness.

The approach taken by alternative-medicine practitioners work to get us more in touch with our own bodies. We learn how to eat better, sleep better, eliminate toxins and take care of ourselves.

There are a multitude of alternative medicines, each with their own way of responding to an essential need within the body. A quick phone call to a practitioner will help you discover the benefits of that approach.

Eating healthy starts at the supermarket. Filling your grocery cart with nutritional foods is easy, when you know what to choose.

Before you go grocery shopping, make a list of all the food items you need.

Don’t go shopping on an empty stomach – you’re bound to be tempted by items of dubious nutritional value.

Once at the supermarket, try to focus on the fresh produce department. Fresh fruits and vegetables provide many of the necessary elements for good health.

Choose whole-grain products.

Whole grains that are found in breads, cereals, brown rice, quinoa, breakfast rusks and natural popcorn are good sources of fibre.

Choose food items whose ingredient lists starts with whole wheat flour, whole grain barley, whole grain rye, etc.

For dairy products and alternatives, choose skim milk or low-fat milk with a 1 or 2 per

cent fat content. Whole milk (3.25 per cent) is recommended for young children. Choose yogurts and cheeses with a minimum fat content as well.

Milk can also be replaced by enriched soy beverages, ideally unsweetened ones.

When shopping for meat and alternatives, choose the leanest cuts.

Even better is to limit your consumption of red meat, replacing it with two portions of fish per week and with white meats such as chicken and turkey.

Try tofu, a vegetable protein with no cholesterol and an ability to take on the flavour of whatever sauce it’s cooked in.

A healthy grocery basket will also contain proteins such as beans and lentils.

If you’re hesitating between two products, check the information in the nutrition facts table.

Choose the item that contains the least amount of sodium, sugar and trans fat.

choices in your

WHAT IS THE VALUE OF VISION

Our precious eyesight is often overworked in this age of computers and televisions, whose screens we often squint at for hours in poor light without any breaks.

Eye examinations with eyecare professionals at regular intervals are essential in order to correct computer-related eye strain and other vision problems.

Optometrists examine and evaluate the overall health of the eyes, taking into account any of the patient’s medical history that might influence his or her eye health. They then measure all of the physical aspects of the patient’s eye using instruments and standardized tests, taking steps to correct the failing sight with optical aids, such as glasses or contact lenses. They also detect diseases and other deformations that can lead to more serious consequences.

In the case of a pathology, such as glaucoma or a functional problem, the optometrist will refer the patient to the appropriate health-care professional.

It is recommended that people of all ages have vision checkups on a regular basis. Young children might not even notice a deterioration of their sight if it takes place over a long period of time.

Why is so much emphasis placed on tooth-brushing and flossing? Because oral health is directly linked to our general health and well-being.

Dental disease can take a heavy toll, both financially and socially.

Dental health involves all aspects of health and functioning of the mouth.

In addition to allowing us to talk and eat, our mouths must also fight against infections that cause tooth decay, inflammation of the gums, tooth loss and bad breath.

So how can you ensure good oral health for you and your familiy? The first step is to make sure that very young children do not get in the habit of having a bottle of milk, fruit juice or a sweet drink before going to bed.

These sugary drinks can stay coated on the teeth for long periods of time and can lead to tooth decay.

Brush your teeth at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and, if possible, floss them once a day. You should also visit your dentist once every six months for a cleaning and check-up.

Oral health professionals have an important part to play in maintaining dental health as well as treating and preventing associated problems.

Schools also have a role in raising children’s awareness of the importance of a healthy diet and good oral hygene.

Take care of your teeth and dazzle the world with your beautiful smile.

How do you re-energize yourself while burning off some calories? The answer is simple: get moving!

Playing a sport is a sure way of staying in shape, as it will burn fat reserves, increase the body’s metabolic rate and help to keep your body trim.

Regular exercise also helps to regulate appetite and contributes to general good health.

But if you’re not a fan of sports, there are many other activities that, at first glance, seem insignificant, but can make a big difference to your physical well-being. These include playing actively with your children, gardening, dancing and even shopping.

Not to mention the unavoidable task of housework. Boring? Not if you turn it into an intense workout.

By using your entire body, housecleaning activities can burn as many calories as going for a walk – as long as you put your heart into it.

If you find yourself having a hard time staying motivated to do something physical each day, try pairing up with a buddy who can help encourage you to keep working.

Lastly, to use your time efficiently, try to be active on a regular basis. By combining several different activities, you can help to develop different muscles in your body.

Perhaps most important is to find activities that you enjoy. Whether it’s hiking with your family, swimming lengths at your local pool or dancing up a storm in your living room, having fun is an important aspect of getting fit. You’re far less likely to embrace a fitness regime if you find it boring or repetitive.

Just as nature springs back to life after the long winter months, rejuvenate your skin after all the cold weather and start the summer with radiant beauty.

Start your pre-summer treatment with a good exfoliant. By helping to eliminate the layer of dead skin that accumulates on your epidermis, giving it a dull, pallid appearance, exfoliants will uncover a new layer of fresh, rejuvenated skin.

The new skin revealed by your exfoliant should, however, be well protected from dryness or irritation with the application of a good moisturizing cream.

Protection from harmful UV rays is recommended throughout the year, but it is especially important to protect yourself in the spring and summer months. The application of a good-quality sunscreen is therefore essential when the warmer weather returns.

As sandal season approaches, it’s time to give your feed some tenderloving care in preparation for slipping them into your favourite pair of open-toed shoes.

With the help of a pumice stone, you can eliminate corns and dead skin from your feet. Then moisturize them, spoil them and – as a finishing touch – apply a coat of varnish to your toenails in celebration of their return to the summer sun.

Healthy. Comfortable. Beautiful.

Many women are on an eternal quest to enhance their appearance, spending thousands of dollars each year on cosmetics and other beauty products.

While the use of highquality products can help to a certain extent, there are plenty of other simple ways to give yourself a natural beauty boost.

• Confidence: A woman who exudes confidence and security about how she looks may come off as more attractive. Walking with your head held high into a room can certainly have all eyes pointing in your direction for the right reasons.

• Good posture: Standing up straight can improve your health and your appearance. Simply standing tall can elongate the body, make it appear slender and help portray a younger appearance.

• Healthy hair: Hair sends a message to others about how much you care about your appearance, as it is one of the most visible aspects of your appearance. Dry, unmanageable hair may be the result of inadequate scalp stimulation. In such instance, the oils of the scalp need to be spread to the hair shaft to improve hair’s appearance and health.

• Lifestyle: Smoking not only affects your internal organs and increases your cancer risk, but it’s also affects your appearance. Smoking can discolor the skin and the hands. The blood vessels in the eyes can be compromised by a lack of oxygen due to smoking, and the chemicals in the smoke can lead to inflammation and irritation of the eyes.

Smoking also seems to age the skin more quickly, further enhancing the appearance of wrinkles.
