Prevents constipation

Oranges are a very good source of soluble and insoluble fiber, which helps keep your stomach and intestines healthy by preventing problems like irritable bowel syndrome. The fiber content in them adds bulk to the digested food and reduces the transit time of feces, preventing constipation and straining.

post186

Skin

Vitamin C also helps keep skin looking beautiful by helping fight against skin damage caused by the sun and pollution. It is vital to collagen production and may help reduce wrinkles and improve the skin’s overall texture. There’s a reason why oranges are popularly used in the beauty industry. Beauty products including face packs, masks, serums, and creams that are available contain orange extract as a key ingredient. That’s because vitamin C present in oranges also helps prevent skin damage by eliminating free radicals.

Cholesterol

All the fiber in oranges may help lower cholesterol levels because it picks up excess cholesterol compounds in the gut and pushes them out in the elimination process.

Heart

Oranges contain vitamin C, fiber, potassium and choline, which are all good for your heart.

How Organic Food Is Good For Your Health

post187

Human beings are a natural part of what happens every day on the planet. By doing things responsibly we create and maintain a beautiful and rich place to live.

When people think of living organic they think of food. This means that you buy foods that are free of fertilizers and pesticides. Eating organic and unrefined food is good for your health and well being.

Living organically means paying attention to consumerists messages and rejecting them if it’s not good for you and your loved ones’ health.

Organic food is expensive

Organic foods may be more expensive but there are hidden costs in conventional food – the cost to our health and environment and much more.

post112

Artificial chemical

An incredible amount of artificial chemicals end up on conventional food. Avoid these fruit and vegetables: peaches, apples, nectarines, strawberries, cherries, pears, imported grapes, spinach, lettuce, potatoes, sweet bell peppers, and celery.

Children are four times more susceptible than adults to the pesticides that reside in our foods so feed them organic food because the pesticides in our conventional food can harm them.

post115

Farmers should work with each other to find ways, fund research and share their information on how to produce natural or organic food without using pesticides.

Environmental Safe crops are rotated so the soil will not be stripped of natural nutrients. To keep the vegetable garden healthy, avoid repeating the same planting plan in the same spot. Crop rotation is really important to prevent crop-specific pests and diseases from building up and carrying over from one season to the next in the soil.

Organic food is much richer in vitamins, minerals, and fiber and retains the levels of nutrients for longer.

Switching to organic food will enable your body to be more resistant to disease as it will have higher levels of the essential nutrients it needs to fight off infection.

Organic foods, especially raw or non-processed, contain higher levels of beta-carotene, vitamins C, D and E, health-promoting polyphenols, cancer-fighting antioxidants and bioflavonoids that help ward off heart disease.

On the average, organic food is 25% more nutritious in terms of vitamins and minerals than products derived from industrial agriculture. Since on the average, organic food’s shelf price is only 20% higher than chemical food, this makes it actually cheaper, gram for gram than the chemical food of industrial food production. Levels of antioxidants in milk from organic cattle are between 50% and 80% higher than normal milk. Organic wheat, tomatoes, potatoes, cabbage, onions, and lettuce have between 20% and 40% more nutrients than non-organic foods.

Organic food contains qualitatively higher levels of essential minerals (such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and chromium), that are severely depleted in chemical foods grown on pesticide and nitrate fertilizer-abused soil. UK and US government statistics indicate that levels of trace minerals in (non-organic) fruit and vegetables fell by up to 76% between 1940 and 1991.                                                                               

If you have not decided whether an organic food and lifestyle is something you would benefit from, consider this, you will not only improve your health but also enhance your energy and help yourself to feel young.

  • Grow organic vegetables, herbs, fruits, and
  • Drink water or make your own juice.
  • Prepare food in a way that doesn’t “kill” the food.
  • Eat to live, don’t live to eat.
  • Spend more time outside, and live in harmony with nature.
  • Use natural organic remedies alternatives to medicines when possible.

Some people think that organic food is expensive. You can eat organic, healthier food and can save money at the same time. Here are some tips:

Do a search about your local organic food

You may have a lot more choices for organic food in your community than you realize. All it takes is a little research to find out. Organic associations and organizations in your area are good places to start. Just type the name of your area and the word “organic” into a search engine and see what pops up.

post188 

Offordable Organic Food

Local farmers’ markets are great sources of offordable organic fresh local produce. A just-picked tomato from a local farm tastes better than a tomato that’s travelled thousands of miles before reaching a supermarket shelf. If you don’t see a sign saying the produce is organic, be sure to ask. Some farmers may be making the transition to organic farming, however, have not got the full certified approval yet. The key to landing good deals at farmers’ markets is to ask lots of questions. Ask about misshapen produce that you may be able to buy at a discount, ask about discounts for buying in bulk and always ask what tastes the best. They know, they’ll tell you. Buying at farmers’ markets is actually one of the best-kept secrets to buying affordable, organic food. Top chefs in both Europe and America’s have been doing it for years!

A USDA study in 2002 found that about 40 percent of farmers’ market farmers don’t charge a premium. Cities now list their local farmers’ markets online, so simply search for the one closest to you.

Buy big in-season

The best time to buy an organic fruit or vegetable is at the peak of its growing season and also it’s the best time to buy big. Load up on all your favorite organic fruits and veggies at dirt-cheap prices. This is also a great time to bargain at a local farmers’ market. You may be able to nudge prices down even further by buying in bulk from a local farmer. It never hurts to ask. If they have to move produce that day, you might get bulk orders at a discount. You can either share your bounty with friends and family or keep it all and freeze your leftovers.

Save for your future

Remember spending a little more now on organic will mean saving more on healthcare later. Don’t forget the deep impact living organic has on your long-term health. It’s preventive medicine.

Long, silky, healthy hair is every girl’s dream, but most of us end up hating our dull and dry hair. Owing to our hectic, modern lifestyle, which includes everyday stress and pollution, long hair can be difficult to achieve.

Maintaining long and lustrous hair is not a one day task. It requires a proper and dedicated hair care regimen that is easy to follow. If you’re dreaming of long hair, here are a few tips you must follow

  • Don’t shampoo every time you shower
  • Do a cold-water rinse at the end of each shower
  • Apply an oil or mask treatment weekly
  • Consider trying hair-boosting supplements
  • Ditch your cotton pillowcase
  • Distribute your hair’s natural oil
  • Keep your scalp healthy
  • Eating the right foods

Food for faster hair growth

It’s very important to pay attention to your diet because each strand is made up of cells that contain a tough protein called keratin and they need to be constantly nourished with minerals and vitamins to make your hair long and strong so you need to eat specific foods to make your hair grow faster.

Eggs Provide Protein

Your hair is made up of protein so it’s really important to ensure that you have enough protein in your diet. Protein is the building block of hair. Eggs are one of the richest natural sources of protein.

Spinach and Other Dark Leafy Greens Provide Iron

Iron is an essential mineral that your hair cells require. In fact, a deficiency of iron in the body may cause hair loss. When your body is running low on iron, oxygen, and nutrients are not getting transported to the hair roots and follicles adequately which can inhibit growth and make your strands weak.

Citrus Fruits to Get Your Dose of Vitamin C

Your body requires Vitamin C for iron absorption, therefore; you need to add citrus fruits to your diet. Nutritionists recommend that one lime per day is enough to get your daily dose of Vitamin C. You should also need to eat oranges as well. Vitamin C is also required for the production of collagen that makes capillaries that connect to the hair shafts strong thus, ensuring regular supply of nutrients for quick hair growth.

Nuts and Seeds of Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Omega-3 fatty acids nourish the hair and support thickening. Since your body cannot produce these healthy fats, you need to derive them from your diet. Almonds, walnuts, flax seeds are really high in Omega-3 fatty acids, while also supplying the essential fats to your hair.

Whole Grains to Obtain Biotin

Whole grains are rich in biotin along with iron, zinc and B vitamins. Biotin is required for cell proliferation and plays an important part in producing amino acids (protein) which are required for your hair to grow.

If you want to have beautiful long hair you need to remember that you can achieve that only with a good diet and a proper hair care regime.

Good Health And Wellbeing Starts With Positive Thinking
We experience that pleasant and happy feelings always brings brightness to the eyes, more energy, and happiness in our life.

Our health is affected in a beneficial way. We walk tall, our voice is more powerful, and our body language shows the way we feel.

Negative thoughts, words, and attitude create negative effects on our feelings, moods, and behavior.

When the mind is negative, poisons are released into the blood, which causes more unhappiness and negativity. This is the way to failure, frustration, and disappointment.

post99

Positive thinking is much more than just being happy or displaying an upbeat attitude.

Positive thoughts can actually create real value in your life and help you build skills that last much longer than a smile.

The impact of positive thinking on your work, your health, and your life is tremendous.

post98

Be grateful for what you have in your life

Thinking of what you are grateful for consciously brings positive thoughts to your mind and stops you from over-focusing on the bad. It can pick you up, it really can. I learned this truth for myself. By being thankful for what you have you can use the feeling to power yourself through any problems and be kind to everyone.
