This is a guest article by https://www.bellacupcakecouture.com<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> You may have read and heard what Vitamin E can do to your skin countless times, as it is one of the most popular ingredients on skin-care products.  But Vitamin E isn't only found in skin support. It's naturally present in most foods.  You may have even taken it in a supplement form. Studies even show that it can help prevent certain diseases.  <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> But what is Vitamin E, and what benefits can you get from it?  Read on to know more. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> What Is Vitamin E? <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Yes, Vitamin E is a vitamin. But if we go into a little technical, the term refers to a compound group. It's a family of oil-soluble antioxidants and has about eight various types or forms. And the most common of all is the tocopherol acetate and tocopherol that are usually found in your skin-care products. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> But when you see "Vitamin E" in your skin-care packaging, it's almost always the "tocopherol" as this is the only form recognized to satisfy human essentials. So, whenever you see the term "tocopherol" on the skin-care ingredient list, it's vitamin E. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> What Can Vitamin E Do for You? <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Vitamin E is very helpful for skin repair and various skin disorders. It helps in cellular restoration from sun damage to healing for scars and burns. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> It can also help protect against disease mainly because Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant whose key role is to protect against cell damage. Antioxidants are essential in our body, topically and internally, as they help prevent oxidative damage to our body cells by removing free radicals (the bad guys). It also helps maintain a good and healthy immune system that can help you fight off certain diseases like cancer and heart disease.  <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> How Much Do You Need? <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> If you are 19 years old or older, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of Vitamin E to take 15 mg per day. This is also the same with pregnant women. But if you are lactating or breastfeeding, it is recommended that you take 19 mg per day and not exceed 1000 mg of Vitamin E per day. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> What Are the Sources of Vitamin E? <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Vitamin E can usually be found in food sources that contain fat like avocados, nuts, seeds, dark leafy greens, and fish. To be precise, you can get your dose of Vitamin E from fortified breakfast cereals, almonds, safflower, sunflower seeds, wheat germ oil, hazelnuts, and a lot more. You should remember that you have to control portion sizes if you watch your caloric intake. One serving of almonds is around 10 to 14 almonds, not half a cup. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Do You Need to Take Vitamin E Supplements? <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> The short answer is No. People usually get enough Vitamin E through food sources. Vitamin E is fat-soluble. This means that the body can store it in the liver to use for days when you might get less than usual. People who have health conditions like trouble getting enough Vitamin E or difficulty absorbing fat are usually recommended. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> As long as you take food sources rich in Vitamin E, you should be able to get enough per day. Thus, it is important to incorporate in your diet food sources, fruits, and vegetables rich in antioxidants every day. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Conclusion  <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> While it is important to have skin-care products with Vitamin E on it, it is also more important to take food sources rich in Vitamin E.  It isn't just for healthy skin and eyes, but Vitamin E is also essential for a healthy and strong immune system.  Thus, it is important to incorporate the recommended daily amount of Vitamin E in your everyday diet.<br /> <br /> <br /> Heather Earles full false 5:42 2506453 168极速赛车 The Thyroid: The Butterfly-Shaped Gland That Runs Your Metabolism https://heatherearles.com/the-thyroid/ https://heatherearles.com/the-thyroid/#respond Fri, 08 May 2020 01:46:14 +0000 https://heatherearles.com/?p=2505579 By: Dr. Terra L.

A busy butterfly-shaped gland resides just below your Adam’s apple and is responsible for the regulation of your metabolism. The thyroid quietly goes about its business, By: Dr. Terra L. Provost, Naturopathic Doctor<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Where is the thyroid?<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> A busy butterfly-shaped gland resides just below your Adam’s apple and is responsible for the regulation of your metabolism. The thyroid quietly goes about its business, like a butterfly, without getting much attention unless your doctor checks it during a routine physical exam or runs a blood test during an annual check-up. Unless something unusual is found at that time (e.g., swelling around the throat, called a goiter) or symptoms manifest that indicate a problem, there won’t be much further conversation about your thyroid.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> What does the thyroid do?<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Let’s take a moment to find out what the thyroid does, how to know if there’s a problem, and how to keep your thyroid healthy.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> The thyroid is part of the complex endocrine system, which includes the pituitary gland, hypothalamus, thymus, pineal gland, testes, ovaries, adrenal glands, parathyroid, and pancreas. It makes hormones that travel through your bloodstream and regulate your metabolism, brain and heart function, and reproductive and menstrual cycles.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> When the thyroid is not functioning properly, a chain reaction of hormonal events can take place that involves many other glands/hormones of the endocrine system and the bodily systems they regulate. The end result is one of two primary types of health conditions: hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Hyperthyroidism results when the thyroid is overactive <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Think of hyperthyroidism like a butterfly that can’t stop fluttering its wings. Everything is on overdrive, including metabolism, frequency of bowels, emotions (anxiousness), increased sweating, and–for lady butterflies only–very light menstruation or cessation of the menstrual cycle. This butterfly often feels hot and can’t maintain a healthy weight. There are also bouts of exhaustion from trying to maintain this intense state of arousal.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Hypothyroidism results when the thyroid is underactive<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />  This butterfly just can’t get its wings to go. It’s gained weight, feels sluggish, and has brittle hair and nails. It feels cold and tired, is kind of depressed, and suffers from constipation. The lady butterflies usually have irregular, heavy menstruation.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> How to test your thyroid<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In order to test the thyroid, most doctors will run a thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) test. If that test number is out of range, then a diagnosis is made. There can be many variables to the testing of the thyroid. Taking the testing late in the day can show a lowered TSH, making it look in range, when in actuality, a morning test may have shown the numbers out of range. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> The TSH does not test the thyroid gland itself; it looks at what the pituitary is telling the thyroid to do. This is why looking at the Free T4, and Free T3 numbers are important, so you know how well the thyroid is making and converting hormone to be used by your cells to run your metabolism. If you are hypothyroid, testing the Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPO’s), will let your doctor know if your hypothyroidism is caused by the auto-immune component, Hashimoto’s Disease, or primary hypothyroidism. These results can affect how diet and treatment should be directed. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 5 Ways to Keep Your Thyroid Healthy<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Eat from the sea. The sea provides many natural sources of iodine, a building block of the thyroid hormone. Salt has a high concentration of iodine, but it can raise blood pressure. Instead, opt for healthy fish, such as Wild-caught Alaskan Salmon, or try seaweed in a salad.

One year is fixing to leave and another one looms over the horizon with the promise of a fresh start. We approach the date with anticipation hoping to achieve our dreams this time. That enthusiasm, however, it’s gone by January 31st and out with normal selves we go, until next December.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This post is going to give you the cutting-edge tools to achieve your goals this year. Let this be the year you achieve your dreams and the results you want. But for now, let’s clarify a few definitions and realities.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> First, dreaming is good but a dream will remain just a dream if we don’t set a realistic deadline to achieve it. A goal is a dream with a deadline. Remember that. Second, objectives are part of a larger goal, mini-steps if you would. Third, and final are the tasks. Tasks are the little actions you take to achieve your objectives.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Goal Characteristics:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Goals are written: A goal not written down is hope and hope it is not a strategy.Goals are concrete and specific. “I have better relationships with kids” is lofty and fluffy as a cloud dream. “I get home earlier so I can have dinner with my family and play with my kids”, it’s a much better objective.Goals are yours no one else’s: For example, You can’t have a goal for your husband to be more romantic. You can, however, drop hints with fireworks, neon signs, write it on a sign by the highway, leave him a detailed recording, a YouTube video… etc., etc. (you get my drift), for him to include it on his’Goals are realistic: Way too often we set out to achieve goals with unrealistic expectations and pat ourselves in the back when we achieve our self-fulfilling prophecy of gloom and doom. Nature follows an order. If you set out to lose 100 pounds in 15 days, it’s not only improbable but also dangerous.Goals have a deadline: “I pay off half of my credit card debt” is a great idea but not so much if it takes half of your lifetime.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Goal Achieving Process:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Don’t write down 100 things: but a few (no more than five) in each functional area of your life (i.e. spirituality, relationships, finances, health, etc.)Establish a tracking/planning system: I highly recommend the Franklyn Covey Planners, (Online version available) and or this little App I found a few years back called Life Ticker. At the heart of this system is the breakdown of goals into manageable units.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> For Example:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> I want to lose 20 pounds by June 2017 (a concrete and realistic goal):<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Objective 1: I read at least two books on nutrition and fitness<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Task 1: I visit the library, download books or visit the bookstore by January 7th.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Task 2: Using this information I create a nutrition and workout plan.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Objective 2: I join a gym or fitness club (if you are more of an extrovert).<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Task 1. I look for signing up deals and offers<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Task 2: I read reviews of my local fitness trainers<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Objective 3: I set aside and schedule a time for working out and make it a priority<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Task 1:  I commit myself to set aside time for working out. I put it on my planners and make an appointment with myself.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Task 2: I recruit and/or get the buy-in from my friends and family for moral support allowing me to take time for myself to do this.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Objective 4: Get going, measure and record my progress. I adjust and change the things that aren’t working.<br /> <br /> Heather Earles full false 16:25 1209 168极速赛车 July 2nd, The Real Day Of Independence https://heatherearles.com/independence-day/ https://heatherearles.com/independence-day/#respond Thu, 04 Jul 2019 05:41:51 +0000 https://heatherearles.com/?p=2004320 July 2nd is actually America’s #IndependenceDay Our Independence was not the product of the Declaration of Independence, signed by John Hancock on July 4, 1776.

Are you looking for ways to make your vision sharper? Look no further than your kitchen. A good diet helps you get a healthy vision. In this article, we will look at foods rich in different vitamins and nutrients that will lead to better vision. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Sharper Vision With ‘ACE’<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> When it comes to vision care, just remember the word ‘ACE’. It is an abbreviation for Vitamin A, C, and E. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Vitamin A<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Vitamin A plays an essential role in improving vision. It is a component of a protein known as rhodopsin. This helps the retina absorb light. Without enough rhodopsin, you will have trouble seeing well at night time. Vitamin A also protects against dry eyes and night blindness. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Foods Rich in Vitamin A: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> CarrotsDairy ProductsLeafy green vegetables such as spinach and kaleEgg yolk<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Vitamin C<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Vitamin C, as the powerhouse for better eye health. This vitamin is rich in antioxidants that fight various eye problems. It can also slow cataracts and provide the necessary eye vitamins to prevent macular degeneration. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Lemons are rich in Vitamin C<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Foods Rich in Vitamin C<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Citrus fruits like oranges, lemon, grapefruit, and kiwi Vegetables include mustard green, peppers, broccoli, potatoesLeafy greens such as collards, spinach, and kaleEggs<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Vitamin E<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This vitamin serves as a great antioxidant and agent against age-related eye diseases like cataracts and macular degeneration. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Foods Rich in Vitamin E: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Nuts like peanuts, almonds and pine nutsDried apricots Sunflower seedsEggsVegetable oilsLegumes and Whole Grains Sweet potato<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Other Important Nutrients<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Apart from the above-mentioned vitamins, consume foods that are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, zinc, and lutein to ensure better vision. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Zinc: This helps Vitamin A create a pigment called melanin which protects the eye. It also helps in delaying age-related vision loss. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Present in:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Dairy and whole grains help with your vision.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Lean beefPoultryWhole grainsDairy productsFish<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Omega-3 helps in protecting against dry eyes, cataracts, and macular degeneration. It also helps in proper drainage of intraocular fluid from the eye. This decreases the risk of high eye pressure and glaucoma. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Present in:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Oily fish such as tuna, salmon, mackerel, trout, and herringNuts and legumes like walnuts, cashews, and lentilsSeeds like chia, hemp and flax seeds<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Lutein: This is a nutrient present in your retinas, thus making it important for healthy vision. Carotenoids like lutein provide great antioxidants and help fight against age-related eye problems. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Present in:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Leafy greens like kale, spinach, and parsleyVegetables such as broccoli, peas, red peppers, squashFruits like honeydew melon, grapes, and kiwis Egg yolk<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Following a healthy diet is essential to maintaining healthy eyes. There are many tasty ways to incorporate these nutrients into your diet.

It has a history that spans several thousand years and its origins are from Central Asia and Iran.     Garlic (scientific name Allium Sativum) is a species in the onion genus Allium, which includes onion, leeks, chives, shallots, and Chinese onions. It has a history that spans several thousand years and its origins are from Central Asia and Iran. It’s grown in nearly every corner of the earth and its use is wide-spread due to its strong smell and delicious flavor. However, the primary use of garlic throughout ancient history was not culinary but for its health and medicinal properties. These medicinal properties were known and their usage is well documented by all major ancient civilizations including the Egyptians, Babylonians, Greeks, Romans, and Chinese.<br /> Hippocrates the ancient Greek physician often called the father of modern western medicine had a famous quote, “Let food be thy medicine, and medicine be thy food”.  Hippocrates actually prescribed garlic to treat a variety of medical conditions. Modern medicine and medical studies have confirmed many of the beneficial health effects.<br />      When eaten raw, it has a powerful, pungent flavor to match it's truly mighty medicinal benefits. Garlic is particularly high in certain sulfur compounds that are responsible for its scent and taste, as well as its very positive effects on human health. This compound is known as Allicin. We know that Allicin is released when the garlic clove is chopped, crushed, or chewed. A 1 ounce (28 grams) serving of garlic contains:<br /> Manganese:    23% of the RDA<br /> <br /> Vitamin B6:     17% of the RDA<br /> <br /> Vitamin C:       15% of the RDA<br /> <br /> Selenium:          6% of the RDA<br /> <br /> Fiber:               .06% of the RDA<br /> <br /> Garlic also contains trace amounts of various other nutrients such as copper, potassium, phosphorus, calcium iron and vitamin B1. In fact, it contains a little bit of almost everything we need. This, at 42 calories, with 1.8 grams of protein and 9 grams of carbs.<br /> <br /> The entire head of the garlic plant is called the bulb, while each segment is called a clove. There are 10-20 cloves per bulb.  Garlic is low in calories and very rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin B6, and Manganese. It also has trace amounts of various other nutrients.   Calorie for calorie, garlic is incredibly nutritious.<br /> <br /> Garlic benefits rank second only to turmeric benefits in the amount of research backing this superfood. To date, there have been over 5100 peer-reviewed articles that evaluate garlic's ability to prevent and improve a wide array of diseases. Let's now look at some of the major medicinal benefits of garlic.<br /> <br />  <br /> <br /> <br /> Garlic for Heart Disease<br /> <br /> <br /> According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, heart disease is the No. 1 killer in the United States, followed by cancer. Garlic has been widely recognized as both a preventative agent and treatment of many cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. This includes atherosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, thrombosis, hypertension, and diabetes. A scientific review of experimental and clinical studies of garlic benefits found that, overall, consumption has significant cardioprotective effects in both animal and human studies. The most amazing characteristic is that it’s been shown to reverse early heart disease by reversing plaque buildup in arteries.<br />  <br /> <br /> <br /> Garlic for Cancer<br /> <br /> <br /> Allium vegetables, especially garlic and onions, and their bioactive sulfur compounds are believed to have effects at each stage of cancer formation and affect many biological processes that modify cancer risk. In the words of the NIH National Cancer Institute, “Several population studies show an association between increased intake of garlic and reduced risk of certain cancers. This includes cancers of the stomach, colon, esophagus, pancreas, and breast.”<br />  <br /> <br /> <br /> Garlic for High Blood Pressure<br /> <br /> <br /> Heather Earles full false 16:07 1731
