I enjoy watching Rachel Ray's show. When I get out of class early and got the time, I'll lay out on the couch and watch her shows. My favorite segment... her human labs.

Check out this video and learn some secrets from her human lab segment for anti-aging:

Fountain of Youth in Wine? Oh I Hope So!

In the past twenty or thirty years, there has been scientific studies of red wine, and it all began with the French. Despite a high fat diet and high consumption of alcohol, only a small number of these people suffer heart diseases compared to Americans.

The theory, red wine! Which has been undergoing through a variety of scientific tests from health and disease related issues, and now to the skin! It's been suggested that red wine contains the chemical resveratol that promotes anti-aging, allowing those to take it, look younger.

Experiments have been done on monkeys and researchers have noticed that the monkeys who are coming near to the end of their average lifespan of 27 year, and who have taken resveratol consistently look much younger, healthier, their coat is more shinier than the controlled monkeys which have not taken resveratol. In fact, fewer of the monkeys that took reservatol suffered arthritis.

So I might go to GNC and try it out!

The Obvious.. H2O!

You guessed it! The free stuff that comes out of your foucet helps prevent anti-aging. Doctors and nutritionist, and fitness gurus aren't kidding when they tell you to drink lots of water. And we all know the average.. its about 8 to 10 cups a day! I think I average out on two and at more five, but I'm working on it.

Now I'm sure there are a lot of you that are thinking, water? How much can that help with age prevention? Well after talking to a lot of women who are in their fifties and sixties at bars, grocery stores, malls, doctor offices, etc etc; who look like they're still in their twenties, thirties, and forties, their secret is water. And it shows!

So drink up! To read more about the benefits of drinking water, click here.

I Believe in Isotonix

Here is the number one product I use to mainly focus on age prevention, Isotonix OPC-3 Beauty Blend. It is my best kept secret (well not anymore) to keep my skin glowing. Even though I am in my twenties, but I can tell a difference. While my friends are also in their mid twenties or older, I can see their skin starting to lose its luster. Even some of them have begun to form wrinkles but don't even realize it. With Isotnix OPC, my skin feels as soft and smooth before I had acne.

Think of Isotonix OPC-3 as a vitamin pill designated to solely prevent you from aging but in liquid form. Everyone in my family uses it, even the males in my family. Some use it for acne, others like me use it to keep my skin looking young, and I am seeing results. Not just on me, but on my whole entire family. Most of the males in my family tend to have severe acne even well into their adulthood, and after three months I don't see a single zit on their face. My aunts who are well into their forties and fifties now look like they're in their twenties and thirties. It is miraculous how healthier our skin looks.

Isotonix is really like a vitamin pill, but it comes in powder form and all you have to do is mix it with a very small amount of water. Unlike regular vitamin pills, your body will completely absorb all of the Isotonix mixture where as regular vitamin pills you may only absorb 30% of what you actually swallow, the rest of it is flushed down the toilet. So to put it really simple, if your taking the regular vitamin pills whether it's for health, bones, heart, etc, you are not taking all that vitamin daily value, only just a small percentage of it.

So what's in Isotonix? Isotonix OPC-3 Beauty Blend contains a high concentration of vegetable extracts such as grape seed extract, red wine extract, bilberry extract, citrus bioflavanoids and it is completely natural. No extra lab chemical added. What makes these ingredients effective is that they are free-radical scavengers, preventing cellular damage from pollution such as smog.

You can't find this product in stores, well at least I haven't seen them around here. I get my supply from a nutritionist in Canada! However you can find it online, but they usually run at $60-$70 a bottle which seems expensive, but a bottle should last you for three to four months. If you would like to try OPC but for a cheaper price, just feel free to send me an email found in my profile, and I will connect you to my nutritionist.

Aloe Vera, Not Just Something You Put On After a Sunburn.

Aloe Vera has always been known to be a great topical ointment on the skin to help with sunburns or other skin irritants. However, have you ever considered the benefits of taking it internally? Believe it or not Aloe Vera has many long term health benefits! This is one of the closest things you will find youth in a bottle, Aloe Vera juice!

Even if anti-aging isn't your thing, I still would recommend Aloe Vera juice just for the taste! It is absolutely delicious! Anyway back to the benefits:

• Body-Building Blocks: Amino acids are our body's building blocks. Drinking Aloe Vera Juice on a regular basis allows you to help maintain your health by replenishing your body naturally with these essential amino acids. An analysis of the aloe vera plant shows that it comes closer than any other known plant to the duplication of essential amino acids.


• Daily Dose of Vitamins: Aloe Vera Gel includes Vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, B12, C and E, Folic Acid and Niacin. The human body simply cannot store some of these vitamins; therefore we need to supplement them regularly through our diets.
  
• Daily Dose of Minerals: Some of the minerals found in aloe vera juice include calcium, sodium, iron, potassium, chromium, magnesium, manganese, copper, and zinc. We all know that adding foods to our diets with naturally occurring vitamins and minerals is recommended for overall health. Drinking Aloe Vera Gel is a natural and healthful way to replenish the body's supply.
  
• Diabetes Prevention: After undergoing research, aloe extract has been proven to decrease blood glucose levels. Research claims that aloe can prevent or at least slow down the development of diabetes. Medications given to diabetics also contain significant amounts of aloe. The plant is clearly the herbalist's method to control the deadly disease.
  
• Aids in Healthy Digestion: A healthy digestive tract ensures that nutrients from the foods we eat are absorbed into the blood stream. Aloe Vera Juice has natural, detoxifying abilities. Drinking Aloe Vera Juice made from the pure aloe gel regularly may improve bowel regularity and increase protein absorption, while at the same time decrease unfriendly bacteria and yeast.
  
• Immune Support and Function: Aloe Vera juice provides natural support for the immune system. Since the immune system works around the clock protecting the body, aloe vera, with its natural immune enhancers, gives the body a continual arsenal from which to draw.
  
• Regulates Weight and Energy Levels: Aloe Vera Gel naturally, and with regular use, allows the body to cleanse the digestive system. Our diets include many unwanted substances which can cause lethargy and exhaustion. Taken regularly, Aloe Vera Juice from the pure aloe gel ensures a greater feeling of well-being, allowing energy levels to increase and helping to maintain a healthy body weight.
  
• Heartburn Prevention: Heartburn may not be life-threatening but it can certainly cause discomfort. Instead of waiting for the condition to subside, you can ingest oral aloe or aloe extract to speed up the healing process. Aloe is pretty bitter, so you better take it with water.
  
• Dental Health and Hygiene: Aloe Vera juice is extremely healthful for your mouth and gums. Because aloe vera is safe to be taken internally, it can be used to treat injuries that occurred on soft tissue, such as mouth ulcers, canker sores, fever blisters and other lesions. It has also been used effectively to treat bleeding gums and to soothe pain and discomfort after oral surgery or extensive dental treatment.

One of the reasons why I drink Aloe Vera juice is mainly because I love the taste. The fact that it's good for your skin is a bonus. Also I've noticed that it makes me feel better even when I'm sick.

My aunt has been drinking Aloe Vera is replace of water and her skin is pure perfection. She's in a mid forties but she still looks like she is in her late twenties. So hopefully, if I keep drinking this I'll look like I'm in my twenties while I'm in my forties! :)

Get J. Lo's Glow!... And I Don't Mean Her Perfume

Ever wonder how J. Lo always has that beautiful bronze glowing skin? Her secret?.... Salmon!


That's right, fish! As seen on VH1 one of Jennifer Lopez's secret to having that beautiful glowing skin is in her diet. Almost everyday she has salmon for either lunch or dinner.


So what is in this salmon that gives her that glow? Well salmon is one of the richest concentrations of omega-3 fatty acids. These healthy fats nourish the skin by reducing the body's production of inflammatory substances, decreasing clogged pores, and averting fine lines and wrinkles. Thus this fish adds luster and softness to your complexion.


So if you're not a big fan of seafood, it's time to step out of the box and order salmon for dinner. Besides, it's delicious and healthy! Great benefits if you're on a diet! So might as well get skinny and a more beautiful you!
