6 Unique Health Products

Staying consistent with your fitness routines can be a daunting task. You know the importance of working out, burning those calories, and cutting down on the extra kilograms. However, it takes a lot of motivation and inspiration to follow through with your fitness routines consistently. 

Whether your fitness goals include drinking more water, building muscles, or reducing a sedentary lifestyle, there are many interesting products to get you started. These products can make workouts effective and an activity to look forward to rather than a time to dread. They offer some motivation and help you follow through with your routines.  

  1. Smart Water Bottles

Studies show that the recommended daily water intake for men is 3.7 liters and 2.7 liters for women based on varying conditions such as exercise and temperature. Regular water intake keeps body temperature normal, protects sensitive tissues, and keeps joints well lubricated. As obvious as this sounds, people still struggle to drink enough water. However, there are smart water bottles that have made this task more fun. 

People often forget to drink water because they are engrossed in work. There are smart bottles that track drinking activity and even glow to remind users to drink. The bottle is connected to an app through Bluetooth. It has sensors that monitor how much you drink and relay to your phone. 

Some bottles even calculate your hydration needs based on your activity level. Others have UV-C light technology that removes bacteria that remains after washing. Some smart bottles are powered by SPE/PEM technology that converts water to hydrogen water, which has better mineral absorption and aids muscle recovery. For your outdoor activities, some are fitted with Bluetooth speakers. 

  1. Balance Board

A balance board is a great product for improving balance and coordination. There are different boards to choose from: rocker boards, wobble boards, sphere-and-ring boards, among others. It helps in strengthening muscles, especially for recuperating athletes. It also comes in handy in building the core. 

It helps to improve the lower leg muscles and lower body stability. The board helps improve motor skills and reduces the chances of ankle injuries. A balance board is often used to train the tendons, muscles, and ligaments for better balance in the ankle region.  

  1. Shoe Lights

Research shows that night exercise helps improve sleep. It is also a good way to end the day and could serve as a form of meditation before you relax for the night. Some individuals prefer night running because of tight schedules, to improve their eating habits, or just to clear their heads. 

Whatever your reason is, you need to be careful and stay visible. Shoe lights help you stay visible at night and help cars and other road users see you on time. Shoe lights give you about 30 feet more visibility at night and come in handy for all weathers. Also, compared to early morning runs, where you rely heavily on your vision, night running involves your proprioceptive skills, helping increase blood flow to your legs. 

  1. Turmeric Snacks

Turmeric has amazing health benefits that make it a must-have superfood. Turmeric has anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties that help prevent arthritis and improve joints functioning. There are turmeric bars, crackers, and even gummy vitamins containing turmeric that make it easy to access these health benefits. 

It is often difficult to get all the nutrients the body needs from food, hence the need for supplements. Supplements cushion this effect and provide all the body needs by combining various foods and nutrients. Research also shows that curcumin, the medicinal ingredient in turmeric can also reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease. 

  1. Smart Scales

As you progress through your fitness journey, you will want to take measurements of your progress and record some key metrics. These include muscle mass, body mass index, body fat mass, and more. Smart scales help you do this, and even better, you can record all these on an app. 

It also compares your data against recommended level for your age and gender. Some allow you to track data for multiple users and can connect to other third-party apps. 

  1. Air Quality Monitor

This phone-like device makes it possible to track particles in the air. This can be very helpful for those with allergies, as they can quickly detect a polluted environment. It also has a weather sensor that monitors the temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure. For those with respiratory conditions, it helps to prepare for outdoor workouts sessions adequately.

New Approach, More Energy

In today’s age and time, workouts are easy to find and more engaging. There are a plethora of products and gadgets you can take advantage of to improve your health while still having fun. Rejuvenate your workout sessions with these products and enjoy more rewarding sessions.

6 Underrated Treatment Options For Persistent Acne

What Causes Acne Anyway?

Acne is caused by a combination of our environment, as well as our own bodily processes. Oils and dead skin cells from our skin combine with bacteria to clog pores, leading to the appearance of unsightly pimples.

If you have persistent acne you’ve probably tried a long list of expensive solutions and even medications. Whether they’re just too costly to be maintained in the long term, or they don’t work very well, listed below are 6 affordable (if not, free) treatment options for tackling your persistent acne:

 

Acne causes

 

Apple Cider Vinegar

ACV has been getting a lot of press lately because it is beneficial for so many things in the human body and that includes fighting acne. The acids in ACV help the fight by preventing inhibiting some strands of bacteria that grow in pores and cause acne.

Witch Hazel

Witch hazel water is a hydrosol that contain many of the benefits of witch hazel plant and is known as a great toner for a long list of skin conditions, including acne. It works by effectively clearing away the oil and dirt that usually leads to clogged pores, while also helping to soothe the face if redness is also a factor.

Retinol

Retinol is a skincare ingredient that has been used for reducing wrinkles and signs of aging for quite some time but it can also help with acne. Retinol is a by-product of vitamin A that increases skin cell turnover, reducing the chances clogged pores. It also helps to regulate sebum production, reduce inflammation and boost collagen production.

It’s easily attainable as a cream but it leaves your skin somewhat vulnerable so wear plenty of sunscreen in the day or only use Retinol at night.

Cleansing and Exfoliating Masks

Just like with ACV, witch hazel and retinol, the best goal is to reduce the chances of clogged pores and stop acne before it can gain a foothold. Masks are a great way to reduce the chance of acne and treat yourself to a little spa time. Different masks have different benefits, like exfoliating to get rid of dead skin cells and moisturizing to boost skin elasticity. There are also masks to remove excess oil and reduce the look of acne scars. Everyone is different so the key to a good skin regime is finding products that work for you and don’t irritate your skin.

Cleansing and exfoliating masques

Reducing Stress

Stress is a huge factor in how well the body works. In modern times, chronic stress has become a major obstacle in the health of millions of people in terms of chronic illness such as high blood pressure.

However, stress also affects the skin and how well it can defend itself from bacteria and excess waste like dead skin and oils. Reducing stress will have numerous health benefits and often clearer skin. That being said, reducing stress is not an easy task because there are so many things to be stressed about. However try finding a tactic that works for you whether it be yoga, meditation, a quiet cup of tea or your favorite video games. The key is to lessen the effects of chronic stressors.

Exercising More

Acne is sometimes caused by hormone imbalances, lifestyle choices and genetics which makes it harder to treat. Therefore, you want to get to the root of the problem and treat your skin from within.

Exercise is great for the whole body and works to promote blood circulation which usually results in less clogged pores because of the body’s ability to carry waste . It also reduces stress, helps to restore hormone imbalances and a more balanced lifestyle. This often results in clearer and higher functioning skin.

Don’t forget to shower and cleanse your face after exercising, otherwise all your efforts will go to waste.

6 Ways To Obtain And Keep A Healthy Mind

The mind is the most important muscle in the body and it is therefore vital we treat it as such. While we think about going to the gym and making sure we keep ourselves in good shape physically, how much thought do we put into ensuring we are in good working fashion mentally?

Not as much, which is pretty stupid really, as our minds are just as important as our bodies, if not more so. While the brain will change with age and mental decline happens to everyone, there are still several ways in which you can try to keep yours in good shape.

Here are six ways to keep your mind healthy.

Get mental stimulation

Scientists believe that brainy activities stimulate new connections between nerve cells and may even help the brain to generate nerve cells. What this means is that every time you read a book, take on a difficult crossword puzzle, paint, draw or carry out mental math, you’ll be helping to develop neurological plasticity and building up a reserve of cells that can help compensate for any future brain cell loss.

Improve your diet

Good nutrition doesn’t just help your body, but your mind as well. Of particular benefit to the brain is the Mediterranean Diet, a diet that is high in fruit, vegetables, fish, nuts, olive oils and plant sources of protein. It helps improve memory and can fight off cognitive impairment and dementia.

Get physical exercise

By exercising regularly, we increase the number of tiny blood vessels that bring oxygen-rich blood to the area of the brain that is responsible for thought. Exercise can also help lead to the creation of new cells and improves the connections between existing brain cells. All that translates to healthier minds as a result of improved neurological performance. You can find out more about neurons and their importance to our mental healthy by reading about Dendrites Psychology.

Avoid drugs and substance abuse

Drugs, smoking and alcohol are all bad for the mind. Both drugs and tobacco should be avoided in all forms, while for alcohol its recommended that you do not exceed the recommended daily amount of alcohol which currently stands at up to one drink per day for women and up to two drinks per day for men.

Care for your emotions and make sure you sleep well

It’s important you look after your mental health in order to maintain a healthy mind. Do all that you can to avoid stress, as that can lead to anxiety and depression which are extremely harmful to the brain. Tiredness is another factor behind poor mental health, so make sure you are getting the recommended daily amount of sleep, between seven to nine hours a night.

Protect your head

The head is the area of the body most susceptible to unseen damage. While you can see clearly if you’ve broken a finger of sprained an ankle in an accident, it is nigh on impossible to see any injuries to your brain without a scan. Always protect your head as best you can in order to preserve a healthy mind and if you suspect something is wrong, seek expert medical advice as soon as possible.

 Use these 5 Tactics to stay Healthy & Happy

Exercise is considered the best way to stay happy, healthy and being fit. Exercise will boost your mood, energy and helps you to sleep better and increases your self-esteem. Not only does exercise feel good and healthy and even dancing is a way to stay fit and healthy for people of all ages because dancing isn’t just fun- it’s really good for your health. A few things that boost your mood are:

Eating your favorite food and putting good food in your stomach. Whatever, you are putting into your body could impact your mood. Find peace of mind, the most important thing is don’t ever compare yourself to others because if you do so, you will never feel happy and healthier. Wear your favorite clothes which makes you feel good and happy because the way we dress makes an impact on our confidence and the attitude about our day.

  •    Look at the positive side of every situation

As we all have heard it before  “Stay positive, look on the brighter side – Don’t let things that get you down”. So, you need to train yourself to be more positive. Negative thinking will lead to dangerous and bad things. The problem with negative thinking is that this type of mindset and outlook on life can harmfully affect our health.

Basically, staying positive not only make us happier but it actively is helping to keep us healthy. There are many ways which help you stay positive and look on the bright side. You can control yourself of negative thinkers, share positive thoughts with others, search for the silver lining, separate fact from fiction, choose a positive thought, eat healthy and tasty foods etc.

  •    Join a gym or group workout class

A gym motivates you to do a balanced program which includes both aerobic and strength training exercises. These exercises promote heart health and weight loss, it helps to prevent osteoporosis and also improve muscle strength, balance, and flexibility. Nothing feels as good as being fit. Group exercises have many benefits, it’s challenging, they are motivational, it provides structure, group exercise classes will make us more regular and they are fun too, group classes are social because you can have an instant connection with them, again it teaches you to manage your time as well.

  •    Don’t forget your beauty sleep

Sleep makes you feel better. Enough sleep is a key part of healthy lifestyle and it benefits your heart, weight, mind etc. If we did not get enough sleep that can lead to serious health effects. On the other hand, if we get enough sleep then it is good for everything ranging from weight to mood and for the immune system. Stop worrying so much while sleeping.

Good sleep is vital for having a healthy mind and allows you to enjoy life more, getting enough sleep will keep you active for the whole day. As it is correctly said, “Early to bed, early to rising makes a human healthy, wise and wealthy”. Water helps your skin clear, leaving you feeling happier and better about your body.

  •    Practice inner calming techniques like yoga or martial arts

Basically, yoga is likely to keep your body more healthy and than many other forms of exercise. Even Martial arts can also do few of this but they don’t focus on the same level of flexibility and balance as yoga does. Yoga gives you a sense of calm, peace and balance which impact both the emotional well-being as well as overall health. Meditation is a natural anti-depressant remedy which boosts the mental health. Like meditation, martial arts focuses on movements and being present with awareness, embodiment, and precision.

  •    Eat healthy food

We all love to have delicious and tasty food, however, it is important that whether the tasty food is keeping us healthy, fit and weather will have a long life, no this food will not make us feel happy or keep fit. Some tips for good health is: Avoid eating long stored food, shall avoid junk food eating, the highly processed and convenience food. We should all follow a ‘Custom Meal Plan’ to stay healthy, happier and fit. So choose a good and healthy food that leads to happiness and live long.

Beauty in you’re Golden age

At this stage of our lives we figured out beauty is subjective. We all have an ideal of what beauty is to you because beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  However, there are a few things that we all can agree on that is beautiful. We can agree that being healthy is beautiful, being able to walk along the beach hand and hand with the person you love at a ripe old age is beautiful.  Having stamina, showing strength and endurance is beautiful especially at an age when so many people are frail, weak and feeble.   Let’s go into our golden age standing tall, walking straight and embracing our age.  It is not too late to embrace living a healthy lifestyle.  According to Dr. OZ there is a simple test you can do to see what is your body’s true age.   If you are in your 30’s you should be able to do 13 push ups, 40’s – 11, 50-7 and 60-5 (girl push-up counts).  If you are able to hit your number great!  Let’s make sure you will always be able to do so.  Living a long beautiful healthy lifestyle in not difficult it is just knowing the formula to fighting father time.  It takes stamina, strength, eating well and resting well to be able to grow old gracefully.  I’ll break it down for you in easy steps that you can start doing today.

In order to increase your stamina you must get physical.  You can start by doing regular exercise 3 times a week for at least 30mins, once you conquered this you can up it to 60min 3 times a week.   You can bike, dance, swim, run or even speed walking.  Chose a activity that you enjoy bring a friend, the more the merrier.   Working out doesn’t have to be a bad thing that you dread.  Have fun with it, if you enjoy it you are more than likely to stick with it and will less likely skip it. Laughter and sweat is good combination.  Doing these types of activities can truly surge your stamina.

Lifting weights can help to prevent being frail and feeble the older you get.   How many of us see that sweet old lady that is hunched over in the grocery store and wonder “Is that going to be me?”  Incorporating  strength training into your world will change more than you think.  Ladies look, I know there is a fear of getting to bulky and looking like a man is out there but let’s put that to bed once and for all.  You are a women period and you can lift till the cows come home (yes I am country) but you will not look like a man unless you start taking supplements that pump up your testosterone levels.  So in oder to avoid lifting weight your gym trip my look something like this.  You go to the gym and do the stair master for 30 minutes then get on the treadmill for another 15/20 minutes and close it out with 20 minutes on the bike.  You are done you leave the gym feeling great.  As you should, cardio will increase your endurance but lifting weights will strengthen those muscles and help you burn more calories through out the day.  Even while you are eating, working or surprisedly while you are  sleeping.  Resistance training is a excellent way to combat loss of bone mass and it decrease the risk of osteoporosis.  Incorporate strength training at least twice a week you will feel stronger, more confident, and stand taller.  You are setting yourself up for stronger bones in your golden age.

When you are thinking of a long term plan of living healthy you must incorporate rest.  Yes, I know I struggle with this because it is difficult for me to sleep more than 6 hours a night.  Studies show that the average person needs to have 6-9 hours of sleep  so that they can be refreshed, energized, and focused.  In order to be successful with this set a certain bed time so you can go to bed each night at the same time.   Set an alarm to wake you up at the same time everyday yes, even on the weekend. You will not only feel more rested and rejuvenated but you will have less puffinesses under your eyes, and we know that, that alone will make you look more youthful.

Healthy Eating is key to living a long beautiful life.  In order to stay on track with your eating it is best to plan out your meals.  Make a menu for the week, prep your food so that it will be easier for you to prepare your meals.  Having a menu will help you in many ways, it will keep you from panicking when you are hungry and foraging for food in all the wrong places.  Even if you are going out to eat with friends you should still plan out your meals in advance.  Most restaurants have their menus  online, so all you have to do is look up the menu and select your meal without the added stress.  It takes so much pressure  out of the choosing your meal without the waiter standing over you with pen in hand patting her foot and your friends staring, waiting on you to make up your mind.  You can order with confidence and clarity because you planed ahead.  Keep in mind,  you don’t have feel deprived when it comes to eating, if there is something you are craving go ahead and eat it in smaller quantities of course.

Stay active well into your golden years and enjoy an active, beautiful, lively life. Living a long healthy life and aging gracefully is something we all agree is beautiful.

Benefits of Weight lifting for Women

Back in the 80’s Jane Fonda, Richard Simmons and Denise Austin ruled with their aerobic workouts and women were moving.  We started buying matching leg warmers and head bands and kicking and screaming like the rest of the women. It was a movement that got us moving for sure, however we are now in the 21st century and we need to build on that aerobic phase.  While we are doing all those aerobic exercises we are burning fat and muscle but let me tell you what you can do that will burn almost only fat (even around that belly) lifting weights.  Yes, ladies it time to pick up some dumbbells and lift.  Here are just a few benefits to lifting weights.

  1. You burn more calories – while you burn calories doing aerobics once you stop exercising you stop burning calories.  However, when you are done lifting weights your body will continue to burn calories.  Do you hear me?  You can be reading this blog and burning calories.  You can be watching TV and burning calories.  You can be eating and burning calories.  I think you get it.  If you lift weights your body will burn more calories.
  1. Stronger bones – Lifting weights will make your bones stronger more dense.  The more you lift you are decreasing your risk of osteoporosis.  You can also improve muscle mass and balance. You don’t want to be the lady in the commercial “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up”.
  2. Mood Stabilizer – When you lift weights your body releases endorphins which I call natures happy pill.  Endorphins can enhance your mood, fight depression, reduce stress and anxiety.  Lifting weight can put you in a better mood and help you get your happy back.

Like in the 80’s the aerobic movement was big, let’s make lifting weights the big thing in the 21st century for women.  Go ahead run to the store and buy yourself a matching set of dumbbells.

Donna’s Beauty Check List

I am a mature woman and have dealt with many of the things that can make one appear less beautiful and older if they are not addressed. That being said, I put together a list of beauty items that can help a woman look both youthful and healthy, no matter her age.  In my next articles I will address how to achieve the below list in detail.

Donna Spangler actress/ Producer

  • Donna’s Beauty Checklist
    Face
    How is your skin? Examine it. Is it smooth? Acne? Hydrated? Evenly toned? Dry? Flaky? Sun damage? If your skin is heavily damaged, you might want to consider a light chemical peel.
    How are your eyes? Red? Clear? Puffy? Circles?
    How are your brows? Are they bushy or trimmed well? Coloring?
    Are your lips plump and even? Chapped?
    Any facial hair? A simple laser treatment will take care of this evil.  Also, plucking or buying an inexpensive facial hair remover is an option as there are many on the market today.
    Lashes – Are they lush and healthy or sparse and short?
    Makeup – wearing too much can be extremely off-putting. Learn the perfect amount to highlight your face. Enlist the help of a friend or professional if you need guidance. There are also some great makeup videos on YouTube.
    Hair
    Is your hair healthy? Thick? Well-groomed?
    Is the color rich and flattering to your complexion? Do you have roots?
    Is the style up-to-date and becoming? Split ends? Frizz?
    Is it shiny or dull?

    Thick healthy hair or the appearance of is important

    This is my body at 54 years old! I am quite prod as I work out 3 to 4 days a week for about 1 hour in the morning!

Body
Is your body fit? Too heavy or too thin?
Is your muscle tone lacking?
Is your body skin sagging?
Do you have discolorations on your body?
Are your fingernails and toe nails groomed?
Are you in proportion? Top and bottom?
Skin color – way too tan/pale?
Is your skin dry and flaky?
Body hair?

Hygiene
Are your teeth clean, brushed and smelling good?

Are your teeth yellow? Missing? Stained? In need of orthodontics? Teeth are crucial to a beautiful face.
Have you showered?
Is your hair clean, groomed well?
Are your clothes pressed, well thought out and appropriate for where you will be going?
Next take a look at your overall package. Look at yourself honestly and write down the things you like and the things that you would like to work on. This may be painful as no one wants to face their flaws, but in order to change something you don’t like, it is essential to address it first.

After your candid evaluation, you need to make a list of your goals and objectives both physically and mentally. Set realistic goals, and give yourself a timeframe. I like to make both short and long-term goals and reward myself for each accomplishment as I make it. Great satisfaction comes from achieving these goals and you will feel so much better about yourself as progress is made.

Tips on what to do when Sidelined by Injury

When you are unable to do your normal routine, you may tend to feel discombobulated, I know I do.  Recently, I was sidelined from an injury and had to stay home for two weeks, those two weeks’ seemed like a life sentence. When you have an injury, and is sidelined you may be biting at the bit to get back to work and to hit the gym but instead of focusing on what you can’t do, lets focus on the things you can do. So here are some suggestions that may be helpful to you when you are sidelined from an injury.

  1. Meal planning: While sitting at home all day, I just want to eat, eat and sleep.  Which is okay but I must make sure I have the healthy choices to choose from.  Now that you have time on your hands you can sit back and plan a menu.  What a luxury, you can sit back and create a menu that you have total control over.  When creating that menu make sure you have breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner and snack for the whole week. While you are at it, try a new healthy recipe.   Once you get your menu complete make your grocery list.  In many cases, if you are home bound, you are not likely able to drive to the store; but don’t’ fret, there are services that you can use that will shop for you and deliver right to your door.
  2. Learn something new:  I figure if you can’t work on your body why not work on your mind.  There are so many quick online classes you can do to better your career or just something you have always been interested in but never had the time.  If not an online class, try reading that book you bought several months ago, but never got around to reading it. Now’s the time to relax with a good book.
  3. At home projects:  We all have that list of things we want to get done around the house but we just don’t have the time.  Now you have time.  Go ahead and tackle something on your list.  For me, it’s organizing my closets.  Everyone has their own rule of thumb when it comes to cleaning out their closets. What works best for me is, if I haven’t worn it in the last two years I need to just let it go. You can get cash for clothes.  It’s simple all you do is find your local re-sale clothing store, take in your clothes, and they pay you cash or you can trade for a whole new wardrobe.  There are also many organizations that you can donate your clothes to as well.  The bottom line is, you have no reason to hold on to those jeans you wore in high school. So, look at your check list and pick which one you are ready to tackle.

We all hope that we don’t have to use these tips for sitting at home from an injury, but hey, life happens and you know the old saying, when life gives you lemons make lemonade.

Why Exercise? I’m Not talking about the obvious reasons

Believe it or not, some people in this day and age still don’t exercise.  I know it’s hard to believe, with all the promoting of good health and a gym on just about every corner. However, people still walk pass them to get to the fast food spot next door.  I am going to jump on the band wagon and tell you how important exercise is to you.  When you exercise, you change your body, mind, attitude and mood.  Let me start with how it changes your body.  I am not going to state the obvious like weight loss, tone and build muscle.   I am going to tell you about the things you may not notice.

Exercise can boost your sex drive. If you want to rev up your sex life get into the gym.  Not only will you be more flexible, you will also have more stamina in bed.  Exercise causes the brain to produce endorphins that stimulate the release of sex hormones and when men lift weight it increases testosterone.  Work out together and double the effects.

Exercise can improve your skin. When you exercise, you work up a sweat and that sweat is pushing all the built-up toxins out of your system.  So, make sure you wash your face when you are done with your workout.  Exercise increases your blood flow which carries oxygen and nutrients to your skin and increases skins production of collagen.  Exercise can help you fight off wrinkles and have that healthy glow.

Confidence booster – When you exercise on a regular basis you tend to stand a little taller.  You feel stronger, your energy level increases and just by sticking to an exercise plan gives you a sense of accomplishment.

Go ahead and visit your local gym you can make several changes in your life.  We know the obvious changes that occur are weight loss, tone and building muscles, but now you know you are doing far more than that.  Boost your sex life, make that skin radiant and push that chest out in pride you deserve it.
