The Juicy Benefits
Scientific studies have shown that certain juices can indeed offer protective health benefits. But that doesn’t mean, however, that drinking more juice will make you healthier. As with most things in life, moderation is the key. Fruit and vegetable juices are fantastic thirst quenchers and the best alternative to pure drinking water. So skip the carbonated sugar-loaded packet drinks and do your body a favor.
Pomegranate Juice
Pomegranate juice has received a great deal of attention in recent years for its health benefits. it is a rich source of antioxidants and has been shown to lower LDL cholesterol-the bad, artery-clogging cholesterol. It may also slow the development of prostate cancer in men. Another study found that pomegranate juice may increase blood flow to the heart in people with some forms of heart disease.
Orange Juice
The iconic breakfast drink may help prevent recurrences of painful kidney stones. A study has found that a daily glass of orange juice can reduce the incidence of kidney stones better than other citrus drinks, such as lemonade.
Grapefruit Juice
Grapefruit doesn’t only contain vitamin C, which is commonly known to be protective against colds or flu. It is not just one nutrient that helps prevent a certain disease, but rather the combination of several ingredients in it that does the trick. This juicy fruit contains citric acid, natural sugars, essential oils like limonene, pinene and citral. It has high amounts or vitamin C, and smaller amounts of vitamin A, B complex, E and K.
Apple Juice
Apples have always being considered part of a healthy diet. They also contain important antioxidants that help protect the body from injury, including the injuries caused by eating fat in your diet. The antioxidants work by preventing the oxidation of low density lipoproteins (LDL), or bad cholesterol, and guard your body against chronic heart disease.

Lips Care and Protection
plus exercises to get fuller and sexier
PROTECT YOUR LIPS
Lips have only three to five layers of skin cells compared to 15 over rest of the body. So you need to take care of your lips and protect them, much more than you do for the rest of your body. Essentially, protect your lips against the environment just like you would protect your skin, with moisturizers, sunscreen at all. It might be a good idea, however, to avoid regular usage of lip-balms that are petroleum-based, as these are addictive. So look for balms that are non-petroleum based.
Here is an exercise that will give your mouth a younger, firmer and fuller look altogether! The Lips get enlarged and the lines above the upper lip smoothen. You can do it while sitting up or lying down.
Exercises:
- Hold your lips together, without clenching your teeth.
- Put the tip of your index finger in between your upper and lower lips.
- Press lips together and visualize your finger as a stick that is being crushed.
- Gradually, pull out your finger from between the lips, while seeing the stick.
- Draw the energy point out and lengthen your imaginary stick until you feel the burn.
- Pulse your finger up and down quickly for a count of 30.
Note:
Do the pout exercise twice daily to plump up thin lips
