Shower Tips

I hoard up tips to share in my readers.
Here is another one:

Shower Tips:

1.Don't let shampoo sit too long in your scalp.The detergent in the soapy suds can actually dry and irritate your crown.

2.Pick a mild shampoo to keep strands squeaky clean everyday.Once a week,get rid of styling debris with a clarifying shampoo

3.Use conditioner diligently,but make sure to rinse it out well.Concentrate on the tips rather than roots to help prevent split end and a greasy mane.

If you have pretty feet you're lucky than me because I have rough and flaky feet. I started treating my feet to look nice.

Here is what I have done:

3.To smoothen bumpy peds, I gently slough them with a foot file
4.After that, I massage a rich,creamy moisturizer from toes to heels

I do this everyday and it really works!

Deodorant or Anti -Perspirant?

I have read a clip regarding deodorant and anti perspirant.Did you check your deodorant?Some product is combine deodorant and antiperspirant.right?Deodorant is fine but antiperspirant is not!why? From the word itself means it prevent you from perspiring.Don't you know that human body purge toxins. Like arms pit,behind the knees,groin area,behind the ears.The toxins in the body parts are purge by means of perspiration.So, if we use antiperspirant our armpits will not be perspire thereby inhibiting from purging toxins below the armpit.This will lead a cause of breast cancer.

Chewing Gum

I cannot eat chewing gum because of my denture.Don't you know that eating chewing gum is good for the health too?Most of gum chewers spent less time in the hospital. Chewing gum do not relieve dry mouth only or aid digestion only.This is also good especially those who have colons.Patients who totally or partially remove colons to recover intestinal function is advise to chew sugarless chewing gum for 5 to 45 minutes three times a day after surgery.It was found to pass gas 0.66 day earlier than those who did not chew.Gum chewing also stimulate nerves in our digestive system.

Constipation signify an underlying medical problem like irritable bowel syndrome.This is mainly a result of unhealthy habit or sudden lifestyle change.I have experienced once and I do not like to happen it again.I feel sweat every time I discharge my bowel.It is really difficult.I go to my doctor and she give me medication and some simple tips.Here it is:
