Anti Wrinkle Cream And Oranges
Anti wrinkle cream can be a wonderful help in the fight against aging. However, based on my own experience and vast research – if taking care of your outer appearance by using a good anti wrinkle cream is all you do to stay young, you’re fighting a losing battle.
Hello, my name is Tommy. I have a wonderful secret I’d like to share with you. A very simple secret. So simple, in fact, that you may deem it too simple to work when I tell you what it is.
I just turned 40. I look 25. No eye-wrinkles, no sagging anything – I look like I did 15 years ago. No kidding. I can’t go anywhere without getting carded, and when people check my ID, they just about have a heart attack. That, and they ask me what my secret is.
Is it good genes? No it’s not. My two sisters are my age, and they look ten to fifteen years older than me.
…are you ready for the secret?
1. I take 1000-2000 mg of vitamin C (with bioflavonoids – important!) and large doses of vitamin B (Mega-stress, or B-50) every day. I also like eating oranges, which are abundant with vitamin C.
Google “Vitamin C anti aging”, and you’ll see plenty of information on the anti-aging benefits of vitamin C.
We know much less about the anti aging benefits of vitamin B. I learned that secret over ten years ago, when a ninety year old healer/chiropractor told me to take vitamin B with every single meal (I take half a vitamin B with each meal) to stay young. Vitamin B helps turn your food into energy. Energy is required for every single function in your body, including the regeneration of tissues like collagen, etc – tissues that keep you looking young.
Puffy Eyes: Home Remedies That Actually Work
Part 1 of 2 parts
Do you have puffy eyes because of aging, stress, smoking, drinking or just about anything else? Don’t despair – help is here and it’s free! The four easy home remedies below are free, as well as easy to do and will go a long way in reducing your puffy eyes.
1. Black or green tea. Caffeinated teas help to constrict blood vessels and reduce swelling (due to aging, smoking, stress, etc), while herb teas (especially chamomile) contain important anti-irritants that will soothe and reduce those puffy eyes of yours.
Directions: Steep two bags of your choice of tea in hot water for 3 to 5 minutes. Let cool until the tea bags feel comfortably warm to the touch. Lie down, close your eyes, and put a tea bag over each eye. Now cover them with a soft cloth. During hot summer months, put the boiled tea bags in the fridge and apply to eyes when you need a refreshing, de-puffing experience.
2. Spoons. If you’re in need of an ultra-quick reduction of your puffy eyes, tea spoons, believe it or not, work amazingly.
Directions: Place 4 to 6 spoons in the fridge. Lie down, close those eyes, and put one tea spoon on each eye. As the spoons warm, replace them with cold ones from the refrigerator (or if more convenient, keep them wrapped in an ice-pack).
3. Cucumber. This is perhaps the best-known remedy, known by supermodels as a sure-fire and super-quick way to reduce puffiness right before a photo-shoot. The cucumber’s contracting qualities cause your blood vessels to constrict, quickly and dramatically reducing puffy eyes.
Directions: Lie down, close your eyes and put a thin slice over each eye. Relax for 5 to 10 minutes while the cucumbers work their wonders.
