It’s furniture that conforms to your body using special microbeads. The MAX stretches out to 7 feet and becomes a chair, recliner, sofa or bed. You can stand it up in the corner so it is out of the way or use it as a gamer chair, a couch for two, and a comfy place to study or just hang out with your friends. And as if that’s enough there’s also the Traybo. It’s the ultimate lap top tray made of the same special hi-grade beads and stretchy fabric used in the big Yogibo’s, with a bio-friendly bamboo top creating the perfect carry and go solution to study comfortably virtually anywhere. These are both practical and useful gifts for the graduate on your list. Yogibo Max is available in fifteen fabulous colors to choose from.

Chic, Stylish and Extremely Comfortable….it’s the Healthy Back Bag!

megamenu-women-2bags

I can tell you from the fun experience I had with it, the Healthy Back Bag will be my new travel companion. Not only will I use it for travel but I have worn it on bike rides, grocery shopping, and even carried it on me while doing yard work. The Healthy Back Bag is extremely versatile and comfortable all at the same time. The shape of the Healthy Back Bag makes for a perfect fit and spreads out over your body, you won’t even realize you are wearing it. The Healthy Back Bag literally molded to the shape of my body. You won’t even feel the weight of the bag on your body like you would with a regular back pack.  The shape of the Healthy Back Bag also allows it to be positioned in the front of your body (see below) and it can easily be concealed with a coat or light jacket. This was perfect for me when I traveled. I could keep my money in the bag close to my body and have it concealed when I wanted it to be. I loved that I could put many of my belonging in it and it still was easily concealed.

IMG_2615

I found uses with this bag out of the ordinary way of wearing it. Bike riding with the Healthy Back Bag was very successful. Forget fitting all of your biking necessities in the itty bitty bike case. With the Healthy Back Bag, I easily fit  a water bottle, tissue, cell phone, car keys, money, license, and an extra shirt just in case. Once on my back, I adjusted the strap and forgot it was there. It was so comfortable to wear.  Wear the Healthy Back Bag when going for a walk or doing yard work. Again, a water bottle, towel, cellphone  and ipod was easily kept clean without added weight on my back.  The Healthy Back Bag also expands allowing extra room inside for so much more. This bag would definitely make a perfect diaper bag for a few new moms that I know. Did I mention all of the compartments  is has to keep you organized?

IMG_2621

The Healthy Back Bag is made by Ameribag and comes in an array of fabrics like distressed nylon, leather Natural/eco and microfiber. The colors and patterns are too many to name but I am loving my “Very Berry”. The Healthy Back Bag will make a perfect gift for any member of the family.

You will find the complete line at www.ameribag.com

The following information you will find at their website: The Healthy Back Bag® was launched in the USA, the design was patented in 1994, and winged its way across the Atlantic in 2003. Since then the brand has gone from strength to strength and the Healthy Back Bag is now sold worldwide. So what has made these quirky bags so interesting to consumers and retailers alike? The answer to that is three-fold: The Healthy Back Bag is unique; in its shape, in its intelligent pocketing, in its extraordinary variety. Our customers are loyal, coming back time after time to add to their HBB collection. Every Healthy Back Bag is amazingly comfortable, combining in equal measure, versatility, practicality and style. The Healthy Back Bag came about as an answer to a question that still plagues women all over the world “where can I get a shoulder bag that isn’t going to kill my back?” Not everyone wants to wear a fitted backpack every day. And so The Healthy Back Bag was born and through the collaboration of a designer leather craftsman, a doctor and a chiropractor, men and women alike now have a fashionable functional alternative to a backpack or single strap bag.

How Seriously Do You Take Your Physical Health

th-2

Did you know that if a mother dies, her children also have a very low chance of surviving? Do you know that if children are not immunized, they’ll fall sick, miss school and the opportunity to better themselves? Health is part of everyday life and should be taken seriously. You should strive to remain in good physical health—your body to function as it is supposed to.

Physical health is affected by the following:

Lifestyle:

You have very little control over things that affect your body, but lifestyle is one factor that affects your health that you have greater control over. It includes the food that you take, emotional health, behaviors and the amount of physical activity you indulge in. Use of tobacco is a lifestyle problem that affects people’s health in a way that you cannot imagine. People struggle to quit but quitting it is a good and important change in behavior. It is one of the attributes you can change regarding your lifestyle to keep your body healthy.

Environment:

This is made up of the air we breathe, where we live, basically everything that surrounds us. You have an obligation to keep your environment clean; doing otherwise will leave you exposed to many health risks. Poor or dirty environment is a danger to our physical bodies.

Healthcare services:

How easily can you access your doctor? How affordable is it. Is the service you get at your healthcare facility good enough to prevent illness? How easy is it for them to detect and treat illnesses?

To keep your health in check;

  • Keep your emotions positive, it goes hand in hand with good physical health. Maintain a balance in your life, doing everything in moderation.
  • Get as much rest as possible, and enough sleep. It gives your body a chance to recover after a hard day’s work.
  • Eat healthy; food is to the body what fuel is to the car. Eat regularly too as you watch what you eat. Avoid fatty foods and sugar too. Keep watch on salt intake too.
  • Take your time each day to exercise. At least two hours. Our bodies are made to be active physically. Drink more water, as hydration is important and the weight of the water bottle will strengthen your arm while you are at it.
  • Hygiene is of paramount importance. Keep your body and your environment clean. It will keep you away from infections and illnesses.
  • Regular check-ups are important. Get a doctor that will monitor the behavior of your body regularly so that they can monitor the changes and inform or advise appropriately.

Regular checkups help with detection of treponema pallidum igg igm type antibodies. The earlier they are detected, the better.

Keep yourself informed on illnesses and their symptoms because regardless of how good we think we are taking care of our health, we still fall sick and get injuries. The important thing is to know how to respond and the steps to take in order to heal. Part of healing is natural.

Bio:

James McFadden is a renowned doctor with vast knowledge in the health field. He is a regular contributor in different health magazines and newspapers. To know more about treponema pallidum igg igm, visit his blog today!

How to Look Slim In Indian Outfits?

 

34041_0n

Generally, every woman will desire to flaunt a slimmer figure. As everyone is not naturally blessed with a slim body, you are required to take some efforts for looking slim. You may hit the gym or maintain a proper diet, but sometimes all your efforts may go to vain. But, you should not worry! Here are some simple tricks that will make you appear slimmer in the Indian outfits.

Look Glamorous In Sarees: You must be careful of the drape and the fabric while flaunting your saree. Try to avoid heavy fabrics like cotton, silk, organza etc. which can add more volume in your body. For creating an illusion of a slimmer body, you can go for georgette, crepe, chiffon etc. If you possess some extra flab around your stomach and waist, you should not go on tucking a large number of pleats at your navel. Try to spread and adjust them all along the waist so that the fabric volume will not focus at a single place.

Careful with Blouses: After you have gathered some knowledge about what sarees will suit you best, you must take care of the blouses. To hide a heavy bust area, you can go for printed blouse instead of embellished or embroidered ones. The lightweight logic can be applied here as well. If you possess heavy arms, try to avoid sleeveless blouses and go for quarter sleeved blouses. When you plan for a lehenga choli, try to keep all the same factors in mind. Make sure that the choli is long enough for covering your waist.

Play with Salwar: Try playing with your bottom wear. Here the fitting logic is slightly different. You should go for slim fit bottoms instead of the loose ones. The long anarkali salwar kameez will surely look glamorous if you choose the bottom properly. You can really create a magic by choosing narrow Salwar and it will surely make your waist appear smaller than your actual one. Sometimes, it may provide a look of a stylish trouser and can even be flaunted with a shirt. But you should be careful about the fabric when you are opting for churidaar. It should never be a body hugging fabric. Instead you can go for the fabric that never stretches. Cigarette pants can also be one of the trendy alternatives for you. These are simply loose trousers which are made up of lightweight fabric. You can flaunt those pants with long kurtas and look stylish and elegant.

Have Fun With Kurtas: You should avoid the body hugging kurtas as they will put more emphasis on your heavy body. You can go for a bit loose ones. Be sure that the material of the loose kurtas is not very clingy in nature. The best option of the fabric can be the cotton ones. When your thighs and hips are heavy, make sure that the long kurtas are hiding those parts of your body as well. You should always flaunt slightly loose kurtas instead of very loose ones.

Color and Accessories: Ensure that you are choosing the right color and the accessories for a slimmer look with Indian outfits. Even if you are not actually slim, the dark colors create illusion and can easily hide your problem areas. Among the accessories, sleek bangles and bracelet watches will make you look slimmer. Try to avoid heavy neckpieces and flaunt your earrings with style!

When you are looking glamorous with Indian outfit, add the right footwear and style your hair properly to complete the look. If you want a slim effect, let your hair be loose instead of tying them up.

BELLY BLOATING BUSTERS: Avoiding Foods That Make You Look & Feel Fat for Every Life Occasion

DrCalapai

Dr. Christopher Calapai, D.O.

When we want to look our best for a special occasion we typically think, hair, make-up, a great outfit and some killer shoes. What we forget to add to the mix is being mindful of food intake. Eating the wrong foods before an event can sabotage your beauty plan. Certain foods can give your gut an instant bloat that looks and feels awful. Luckily there are belly bloating busters offered Dr. Christopher Calapai, D.O.; Osteopathic Physician board certified in family medicine and anti-aging medicine.

For a girl’s night out: Don’t be afraid to have a large meal beforehand. If you are planning for an active night, whether dancing, bowling or party hopping, you will need the fuel and protein is key.

Dr. Calapai has created the perfect meal for a pre girls night out:
– 1 grilled chicken breast (approx 4 oz)
– 1/2 cup cooked brown rice and lentils
– 1 cup steamed string beans
This combo will fill you up without weighing you down, and will give you the energy you need to dance the night away!

For a dinner- date: Don’t “just have a salad.” All the vegetables in the salad will actually cause your stomach to bloat more.

Dr. Calapai suggests ordering fish with one side of grilled vegetables. “Wild Salmon is jam-packed with heart healthy vitamins and omega 3 fatty acids. If Salmon is not an option, mackerel, sea bass and lemon sole are all good options as well. As for the veggies, try to steer clear of cauliflower or broccoli which may cause bloating. Opt for grilled zucchini, asparagus, or carrots which will keep your tummy tamed!”

For a day at the beach: If you’re going to the beach you need a healthy, energizing meal to get you through the morning but you don’t want it to show in your stomach. You’re probably thinking that the easiest thing to eat before you head out is some Special K with skim milk. It’s low in calories after all, right? It doesn’t matter how low-cal it is, the dairy and multi-grains will expand in your intestines, causing your gut to stick out.

Instead of cereal, Dr. Calapai has a belly bloat busting recipe for oatmeal pancakes. Take 1/2 cup raw oats, 3 egg whites, 1/2 apple, and a dash of cinnamon and throw in a blender to create the pancake mix. This high fiber non-fat breakfast choice offers whole grain fiber plus additional fiber from the apple, and protein from the egg whites. It’s a great filling way to start the day, and will not create any abdominal gas or bloating, so you can go bikini-bare with ease!

For an afternoon luncheon: Eating a well-balanced lunch is essential for boosting energy and productivity; giving you power over that mid-day slump and keeping your metabolism active. Oftentimes people want to skip lunch in hopes of losing weight and grab an energy drink to keep them going. This is so bad! The carbonation from an energy drink will make you more bloated then a light lunch. Dr. Calapai says, “For a mid-day luncheon, your best bet is a salad chock-full of fresh vegetables and greens, topped with a piece of grilled fish, low-fat tuna salad, or fresh turkey breast slices. Throw a few walnuts or almonds on top and dress with a low fat/low sugar dressing, to finish off your delicious salad creation!”

For traveling days: These days airports are getting bigger and so are the food courts. It’s tempting to give in to the convenience of fast travel food, but the combination of a high-sodium smorgasbord and air travel equals a very bloated body from head to toe. There are better options. Eat before you leave for the airport. Dr. Calapai suggests packing your carry-on with fruits, vegetables, and granola bars. These bloat busting options are usually available at airport kiosks. Also, avoid the beverage service on board. Stick to water, you will have a happier flight and feel revived upon arriving at your destination!

About the doctor…

Dr. Christopher Calapai, D.O. is an Osteopathic Physician board certified in family medicine, anti-aging medicine and chelation therapy. Named the “The Stem Cell Guru” by the New York Daily News, Dr. Calapai is a leader in the field of stem cell therapy in the U.S.

“Start Your Day Sunny Side Up!” with Heliocare

unnamed-4

A Message from the Pros: Generally, the way you start your morning helps set the tone for your entire day. If you roll out of bed chipper and happy, that’s a plus. But, if you’re not “a morning person,” it may take a little extra effort. There are simple steps you can take, however, to help start your day Sunny Side Up.

· Ease into the day: Upon waking up take a moment for yourself; whether you set an intention, repeat an affirmation, visualize your day, meditate or slowly open your eyes – own a calm moment before you spring into action.

· Prioritize your skin’s health: When starting your day Sunny Side Up, remember the key word – sun! At the top of your checklist should be dermatologist-recommended Heliocare® Daily Use Antioxidant Formula, which is backed by over 30 years of study. Heliocare®, distributed and marketed by Ferndale Healthcare®, Inc., is an oral dietary supplement with antioxidant properties that helps preserve the skin’s ability to protect itself against sun-related effects and aging.1 The antioxidant aids in eliminating free radicals produced by sun exposure. A reduction in these free radicals helps to maintain younger-looking, more resilient skin.1

· Sip a large glass of warm water: It can be challenging to drink half your bodyweight in fluid ounces of water, as recommended by Ruopeng An, Ph.D., lead study author of Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, and an assistant professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.2 Why not start your day with a big glass to ensure you’re on track before you even leave the house?

· Prepare the night before: It may seem that no matter how early you wake up, you don’t have enough time to choose an outfit or find the back of your new earring. To set yourself up for success, make these decisions the night before and plan your outfit (including earrings!).

· Filter your news: Information overload can be stressful. Setup news alerts and subscribe to industry newsletters to ensure you have the information you need at your fingertips as you head out the door.

Morning person or not, starting your day Sunny Side Up doesn’t have to be a challenge. Make small changes to your routine and you’ll not only brighten up your morning, but your whole day too!

About HELIOCARE®:
The powerful antioxidant formula in each capsule of HELIOCARE® is derived from the extract of Polypodium leucotomos (PLE), a fern native to Central and South America that has been used for centuries as a remedy for skin related conditions. This fern, which was once an aquatic plant, adapted to life on land and created its own protection from exposure to harsh UV rays. By utilizing the extract of this organically grown plant, HELIOCARE® delivers antioxidants that help the skin protect itself from the first day of use*.
