I just love reading up on the benefits of new and natural products like Monavie Acai Juice. It is the size of a blueberry and is called the miracle berry. It could just be the m ost healthiest food on the earth but you can not always trust what you buy in stores or on all sites. Some of the products that they sell are low in the antioxidants…the whole point of getting this berry and juice! Here is what the Acai Berry benefits are: *Great for your libido *Helps give you beautiful and healthy skin and hair *Helps with insomnia *Great to boose your immune system *Helps with asthma - strong anti-inflammatory *Great anti-oxidant - helps with anti-aging! *Help reduce soreness and pain especially with your muscles Then there is Rhodiola Rosea which is a Russian herb. Here are some of the benefits: *Helps reduces your anxiety and limits your stress *Improves your mood *Helps with endurance and stamina - great if you are going to work out *Gives you mental clarity and helps with mental performance *Gives you a restful sleep And then there is Cordyceps Sinensis - I have already in previous blogs discussed these benefits. *It acts as a natural anti-inflammatory *Helps enhance your libido *Improves fertility *Super immunological restorative properties *Helps resist bodily infections because of adaptogen which helps promote homeostasis (the endocrine system balance) *Great for respiratory problems like allergies and bronchitis *Can assist athletic recovery and performance *Promotes vascular elasticity *Can improve your heart muscle strength *Act as a a powerful detoxifier. Just be sure to buy these products from reputable sources. Also remember even the natural things should be taken in moderation and you should consult your doctor before taking them.

I do not really like those mouthwashes that are anything other than peppermint however…in a case where I do not have mouthwash in the house I will use lemon juice. That is right - just take some lemon juice and swish it around for a bit. It is kinda gross but not more discusting than walking around all day with that foul smelling breath. And the people that you talk to will thank you for doing this also! Filed under: Health News and Fruits and Beauty/Health Tips Comments: 1 Comment |

I just tried a red banana and it is delicious. It is sweeter than a yellow banana and they have a slight raspberry flavor…very good. Here is the even better part of this banana…it has even more beta carotene and vitamin C than the regular banana. I love bananas and this one is a good one. It is considerably smaller than a yellow banana though but fills you up just the same because it is quite hearty surprisingly. Filed under: Fruits Comments: None |

When you have an apple be sure to eat the peel. Do not peel the apple because that is a really important and healthy part of the fruit! In fact the best concenration of the flavonoid quercertin is found in the peel. And when you eat it you are providing your body with a super defence against free radicals even more so that vitamin C! And this will help prevent dviruses and bacterial from forming and multiplying!! Filed under: Fruits and Beauty/Health Tips Comments: 3 Comments |

My very good friend has a urinary tract infection. Personally, I have always drank cranberry juice to help clear up this problem. It actually is a lot more effective in preventing it but it can help clear it up also. However, everything in moderation. She likes cranberry juice and drank an entire big bottle of it…yuck! I like cranberry juice too but as with anything you just really do not want to over do it. Use a little common sense when you are trying to clear up problems.. you do not want to cause other problems in the process!

Here is a great tip for you with fireplaces. Instead of useing or in addition to using newspapers for your kindling try dried orange, lemon and lime peels. They create less creosite. Not to mention that the flammable oils that are found inside them are going give you a flame that lasts a lot longer than the paper. Give it a try and it will smell nicer too.
