SLEEP APNEA 

by 

Tess Kimble 

Follow Us: 

Sleep apnea is a very unpleasant 

condition, causing discomfort, 

interrupted sleep, and other 

symptoms. Use these tips to create 

your treatment plan. 

Sleep apnea is frustrating and 

annoying, and it can also be 

fatal. Anyone who suspects 

they have sleep apnea needs 

to get it diagnosed, and those 

that have it need to consistently learn 

about it and follow up with all treatments 

for the sake of their health. By continuing 

to read the article below, you can begin 

the journey towards understanding your 

sleep apnea. 


Although gaps in memory and general forgetfulness can be extremely frustrating, you can work to overcome 

these annoyances. These tips will help.

1 

PLAY A WIND INSTRUMENT 

Learning how to play a wind instrument 

is something which can help ease the 

symptoms of your sleep apnea. Research in 

Germany has shown that playing an instrument 

called the didgeridoo can train the 

muscles in your upper airways and strengthen 

them. These particular muscles impact 

your airway dilation and control how stiff 

your airway walls get. Because weaknesses 

in these muscles can cause apnea, playing 

regularly may help you sleep better at night. 

Playing a wind instrument is helpful. You 

are going to have a good time with the 

music, and you get to give your mind a 

workout. However, you are also working 

out your throat muscles that regulate 

breathing. Working these muscles make 

them stronger, and help you control them, 

especially when you sleep; this will reduce 

your sleep apnea. 

2 

USE A FITTED MOUTH GUARD 

Fitted mouth guards were designed 

for people who suffer from sleep apnea. 

It’s a good way to get around having to use 

a CPAP machine and feels better to wear 

throughout the night. The soft tissues are 

given the support that they need to keep 

the airways open. 

3 

TAPE YOURSELF IN YOUR SLEEP 

If you don’t have someone to sleep 

next to you, it might be hard to tell if you 

suffer from sleep apnea. Try taping yourself 

at night to see if you do. Make sure 

you have audio on your video so you and 

your doctor can hear the noises you make 

in your sleep. 


9

4 

KEEP A SLEEP JOURNAL 

To help diagnose your sleep apnea, your doctor may ask you to keep a sleep log. 

You simply log the number of hours you’re sleeping each night and mention other symptoms, 

too. If your sleeping partner is telling you that you snore or jerk in your sleep, you 

may have sleep apnea. All these will assist your physician in making a formal diagnosis. 

5 

USE ANTI-SNORING DEVICES 

Try using a device made to eliminate 

snoring. Snoring is caused by your airways 

being blocked with minor airflow, and apnea 

involves them being shut completely 

with no airflow. One device can help with 

both. Anti-snoring devices help you reduce 

apnea as you sleep. 

6 

LOSE THE EXTRA POUNDS 

If you shed some weight, it will likely 

help with apnea. People who are overweight 

or have a larger than normal neck 

circumference may be prone to sleep 

apnea. Pressure on the neck is reduced 

with weight loss, making breathing easier 

while sleeping. 

7 

TRY SOME SELF-HELP TREATMENTS 

Always discuss your sleep apnea 

problem with your doctor, but also try 

some self-help treatments. It’s always a 

good idea to stop drinking and smoking 

and lose weight. It is doubly so if you have 

sleep apnea. You should stay away from 

alcohol, anything caffeinated, and even 

heavy meals within the hours leading up 

to bedtime. 


8 

DO NOT SLEEP ON YOUR BACK 

Try not to sleep on your back if you 

have sleep apnea. Most apnea sufferers 

are chronic back sleepers, and this position 

leads to a collapse of the soft tissue in 

the throat and blocks the air passage. Try 

using a pillow or some cushions to keep 

yourself propped on your side when you 

are in bed. 

9 

TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR 

Talk to your doctor before using a 

humidifier, mouth guard, or nasal strips in 

conjunction with your CPAP sleep mask. If 

the air you are taking in is moist and warm, 

you will have a better night’s sleep. Many 

of these machines now include humidifiers, 

and your doctor can probably prescribe 

one for you. 

DISCUSS SYMPTOMS WITH YOUR DOCTOR 

Make sure you remember that you aren’t going to always notice sleep apnea 

during the night. You need to let your doctor know if you have excessive daytime sleepiness, 

frequent exhaustion or episodes of falling asleep at the wheel. These symptoms may 

be indicative of sleep apnea, despite the fact that you don’t struggle to breathe at night. 

It is agreed upon that sleep apnea is a very unpleasant condition. Discomfort, interrupted 

sleep, and other symptoms make this condition hard to deal with. Use the tips in the 

article above to create your treatment plan.

12 Basic Tips For Maintaining 

STRONG AND 

HEALTHY TEETH 

by 


Follow Us: 

You may end up having some problems 

in the future if you don’t have great 

dental hygiene. Get into a healthy 

routine with this advice. 

It can sometimes be a challenge 

to take good care of a healthy 

smile. They can yellow or even 

decay if left uncared for. If you 

ignore your dental hygiene, 

you may end up in pain. There are things 

however that’ll prevent issues from happening. 

Continue reading to learn some 

helpful tips for dental care.

It is important to treat depression correctly if you wish to overcome it. Remember these tips so you can get rid 

of your depression. 

 


1 

LOOK FOR A DENTIST 

WHO SUITS YOUR BUDGET 

Try different sources to look for a dentist 

who is within your budget. When you don’t 

have insurance, it’s sometimes best to go 

with a college that offers discounted work. 

Visit your dentist two times a year to prevent 

any serious problems from occurring. 

2 

PRACTICE RELAXATION 

TECHNIQUES 

When visiting the dentist for a procedure, if 

you get anxious, learn relaxation methods, 

like deep breathing. When you’ve come up 

with a helpful method, practice it before 

your appointment, during it, and after it. 

It should make the visit go more smoothly. 

3 

VISIT YOUR DENTIST REGULARLY 

Visit your dentist every year. This will 

help you keep your teeth in good shape. It 

will also save money because issues can be 

caught and fixed before they become expensive. 

You can prevent small problems 

from developing into major ones if you 

take care of them while they’re still small. 

Fast treatment is important for your wallet 

and your mouth. 


4 

BRUSHING ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH 

For healthy teeth, you must do more 

than brush them. It’s also imperative to 

floss daily and use a suitable mouthwash, 

too. Mouthwash can get rid of the germs 

that you miss when brushing, and floss can 

get rid of food and plaque between teeth. 

Do all three of these things. 

5 

BRUSH WITH 

HYDROGEN PEROXIDE 

Hydrogen peroxide is often used as a tooth 

whitener. To help whiten your teeth, brush 

your teeth with hydrogen peroxide twice a 

week. Brush gently and do not get any hydrogen 

peroxide on your gums. After you 

are done brushing with the hydrogen peroxide, 

go ahead and brush with your regular 

toothpaste. 

6 CONSIDER 

RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY 

Your teeth can make you look old. But you 

can look to restorative dentistry to improve 

your smile. A bad smile can add years to 

your appearance. So to look younger, go to 

the dentist and fix those ugly teeth. 

7 

PEDIATRIC DENTIST FOR KIDS 

The dentist may be scary to children. 

To allay your child’s fears, explain that healthy 

teeth are very important and that the dentist 

only wants to help. Pick a pediatric dentist 

that has a friendly waiting room for kids to 

make them feel more comfortable. 

8 

USE FLUORIDE SUPPLEMENTS 

You can make your teeth stronger by 

using fluoride supplements. If you notice 

your teeth are losing their whiteness, or 

that your gums are giving you problems, 

you may have to take some fluoride. Yellow 

spots appear on teeth from too much 

fluoride. If you see this happening, discontinue 

the supplements and do away with 

things in your diet that contain fluoride. 


17

9 

CHOOSE THE RIGHT LIPSTICK SHADE 

Lipstick can be used to detract from the yellowness of teeth. Either a light red 

shade or medium coral lipstick helps to give the teeth a much whiter look than they 

might be. The opposite effect happens with a lighter lipstick. They can make your teeth 

seem yellow even if they are white! 

FLOSS AFTER BRUSHING 

You should floss at least once a 

day. Flossing does make a difference. Use 

the floss to dislodge leftover pieces of 

food that have become stuck in between 

your teeth. Use a motion that goes back 

and forth. The floss should be near the 

gum line, not under your gums. You want 

to ensure that the tooth’s back plus each 

side is cleaned carefully. 

READ YOUR 

TOOTHPASTE LABELS 

Make sure you read all toothpaste labels 

before making a purchase. The toothpaste 

for you should contain a good 

amount of fluoride. Other ingredients will 

more than likely include abrasive agents 

to whiten your teeth. If your gums hurt 

when you brush your teeth, you should 

find a toothpaste that does not contain 

these abrasive ingredients. 

TRY FLAVORED TOOTHPASTE 

There are alternatives to mint 

toothpaste if you don’t like the taste. 

Toothpaste is available in lots of other flavors 

that kids and adults enjoy. Try different 

flavors until you find one your kids like. 

You can even find alternatives in a health 

food store or directly from your dentist. 

It’s not simple to perform correct dental 

care. You may end up having some problems 

in the future if you don’t have great 

dental hygiene. Get into a healthy routine 

with this advice. Be sure to follow this advice 

for healthy teeth.

11 Great Juicing Tips For Better 

nutrition 

by 

Tess Kimble 

Follow Us: 

Stop depriving yourself of 

essential nutrients. Check out 

how you can make juicing a part 

of your daily routine so you can 

achieve your maximum health. 

Many people do not like the 

taste of vegetables, so 

they just avoid them altogether. 

By juicing vegetables, 

you are still benefiting 

from their vitamins and minerals. 

Read the tips here to learn the ins 

and outs of juicing. There are 

a few things to consider. 


The key to being healthy and feeling good about yourself is getting in shape. Follow these tips and get the 

maximum results of your fitness program. 

 


1 

ADD MORE GREENS 

When juicing for health, you should 

use dark leafy green vegetables as your 

juice’s base. The juices should be 50 or 75% 

spinach, broccoli, chard, or other green for 

the best health benefits. The rest of your 

juice should be made up of fruits you like. 

2 

USE THE BEST APPLES 

Use ripe, sweet apples to make great 

tasting, fresh apple juice. If your apple is 

bruised, cut the bruise off. Rome, Gala, 

Red Delicious, and Fuji apples are the best 

to use due to their sweet juice. 

3 

ENJOY YOUR JUICE 

You should avoid chugging juice 

blends too quickly, no matter how delicious 

the recipe might be! Enjoy the taste, and savor 

the different flavors. Let saliva mix with 

your juice in order to begin digestion. 

4 

CONSIDER IT A COMPLETE MEAL 

Juice can be considered an entire 

meal. After you’ve been juicing for some 

time, this will come naturally to you, and 

you will soon realize just how much food 

is contained in one glass of juice. Drink 

the entire glass as if it is a meal, so the 

nutrients and vitamins reach your bloodstream 

more quickly. 

5 

JUICING FOR KIDS 

Juicing vegetables is another way 

for you to get your kids excited about 

healthy foods. As many parents know, 

children usually avoid vegetables. So 

instead of forcing the vegetables on 

them, you can juice some fruits as well 

as vegetables and combine the juices. 

They will enjoy drinking the juice 

and not even realize that they are 

consuming vegetables. 


23

6 

MIX AND MATCH 

Before you create any concoctions, do some research on your fresh produce. There 

are many differences in nutrients that are offered from the fruits and vegetables. Mix up 

the products that you use in your juicing routine so that your daily nutritional requirements 

are met. This will give you some interesting tastes as well as offer you a variety of 

different vitamins and nutrients. 

7 

FILTER THE PULP 

If you find pulp getting into your 

juice, you can use a coffee filter to remove 

it. Use this if you don’t like the pulp created 

by some juices. A coffee filter can get 

rid of most of the pulp. 

8 

ADD LEMON JUICE 

Juicing ahead of time to store in the 

refrigerator is always convenient, but too 

much time in there and your juice may become 

discolored. People are naturally going 

to assume that brown juice is bad. To 

prevent the mix from turning brown, add 

a few teaspoons of lemon juice. The juice 

will stay bright longer. The lemon juice will 

help the juice retain its bright color, and it 

will not significantly alter the flavor. 

9 

PICK YOUR JUICER CAREFULLY 

When you select a juicer, make sure 

that the one you choose can be quickly 

and easily dismantled and cleaned. Some 

juicers take over 25 minutes to assemble, 

disassemble, and clean. Add the 

time it takes to juice, and you may just 

want to buy juice instead. If you do not 

clean the juicer immediately after each 

use, the pulp may dry out and become 

difficult to clean. 


CHECK FOR ANY REACTION 

Notice the signs that the body gives off after drinking certain fruit and vegetable 

juices. Many people have trouble with some juices and can react badly. If you drink a 

new juice and feel queasy or experience stomach churning, check the ingredients list and 

see if there’s something you don’t drink often. Once you’ve determined this, use a small 

amount of the ingredient, and train your body to get used to it. 

PERK UP BY JUICING 

Feeling sluggish, possibly because 

of age? Try making juicing a part 

of your life to give you that extra pep you 

need. There are many nutrients in the 

juice that can keep the body in top shape 

by repairing any damage and giving you 

energy. Use the tips from the article you 

just read to help you get started in the 

nutritious world of juicing. By making 

juicing a part of your daily routine, you 

can stop depriving yourself of the essential 

nutrients you need to achieve maximum 

health. If you don’t like the taste of 

vegetables, juicing is an excellent 

option. Happy juicing!

10 POINTERS FOR CREATING AN EFFECTIVE 

Fitness 

Program 

by 


Follow Us: 

The key to being healthy and feeling 

good about yourself is getting in shape. 

Follow these tips and get the maximum 

results of your fitness program. 

Increasing the level of your fitness 

is a worthwhile goal. As 

daunting as this may seem, 

with some assistance, it is possible. 

The ideas and tips in the 

article below will set you on the road towards 

achieving your fitness goals. Your 

health will be better, and you are going to 

feel amazing! 


29

1 

FOCUS ON A GOAL 

The goal that you create for 

your fitness program can be a very effective 

tool in motivation. You become 

focused on beating obstacles, not how 

hard it will be. When you have a goal, 

it is much easier to stay motivated 

with fitness. 

Is snoring ruining your sleep? Then read on for some natural solutions that can help you get the uninterrupted 

sleep that you’ve always needed. 

 



2 

SPLIT YOUR EXERCISE ROUTINE 

Are you short on time for exercising? 

Make two smaller workouts by splitting 

your ordinary exercise routine. Instead 

of boosting the overall time you exercise, 

simply split your current minutes into 

parts. Instead of jogging for an hour, jog 

on 2 separate occasions for 30 minutes 

during the day. If you would rather not go 

to the gym twice in a day, try doing just 

one workout at the gym and then a later 

session outside or at home. 

3 

TIME YOUR WEIGHT 

LIFTING ROUTINE 

Complete your weight lifting routine in 

30 to 45 minutes. Plus, your muscles get 

too much wear and tear after an hour of 

working out. Therefore, keep an eye on 

the clock when you’re working out with 

weights, and limit your time to 60 minutes 

or less. 

4 

CRUNCHES ALONE DON’T WORK 

Don’t do crunches as your sole abdominal 

exercise. You only burn 1 pound 

of fat for every 250,000 crunches you do, 

according to a recent university study. 

It’s safe to say that crunches alone are 

sufficient to produce the desired results. 

Find other ways to exercise your 

abdominal muscles for the best results. 

Crunches aren’t going to give you a sixpack, 

no matter how many you do. You 

can use abdominal exercises to make 

muscles more strong, but the belly fat 

will remain. For six-pack abs, do lots of 

cardio, resistance training, and changing 

your diet. 


31

5 

WORKOUT WHILE WATCHING TV 

Working out while enjoying your favorite TV show can take your mind off the exercise 

and increase the number of calories you burn in a day. When the commercial comes 

on, stand up and do a few jumping jacks or a bit of stretching. It’s possible to perform 

many exercises without even leaving the sofa. Find any way that you can to keep moving 

while doing what usually is a sedentary activity. 

6 

SET YOUR BICYCLE SPEED 

You should aim for a bicycling speed 

between 80-110 rpm. You will increase 

your endurance when you do this and experience 

less strain. To determine your 

pace, count how often your right leg rises 

during a ten-second interval, and multiply 

that number by six. If your RPM is too low 

or high, adjust it. 

7 

GET STRONGER FASTER 

Exercise should be done daily. 

However, it does not have to take a long 

time. Doing extra things like taking the 

stairs can help you burn extra calories. 

You can get stronger faster by doing the 

same amount of exercising in ten percent 

less time. This will cause your muscles 

to work harder and will, at the same 

time, improve your endurance. For instance, 

if your full body workout normally 

takes 30 minutes, aim to finish in 

27 minutes instead. 

8 

SEE THE RESULTS 

OF YOUR EFFORTS 

It is perfectly normal to need to see the results 

of your dieting efforts in order to fuel 

your level of motivation. Instead of stepping 

on the scales, keep some tight-fitting 

clothes around. You will know how much 

you are changing if you make a habit of 

trying these clothes on from time to time. 


9 

INCREASE YOUR 

WORKOUT INTENSITY 

To speed up your weight loss, try increasing 

your workout density. The more exercises 

you can fit into a shorter time, the better 

your weight loss results will be. Complete 

a bunch of exercises in a short amount of 

time, and you should notice your endurance 

and metabolism build. You will see 

the effectiveness as the weight melts off. 

DO SOME BOX SQUATS 

To build some muscle in your 

quadriceps, try doing some simple box 

squats. If you want to have explosive power, 

try doing box squats. You will need to 

stand in front of a sturdy box. You perform 

the squat as you normally would, but you 

pause when you are seated on the box. 

Getting into shape and achieving your fitness 

goals is key to being healthy and feeling 

really good about yourself. It is possible 

to succeed, even if you are a former 

couch potato. Take the information you 

just learned and use it to help increase 

your level of fitness so you can be in the 

best possible shape.

11 HELPFUL TIPS 

TO BOOST YOUR MEMORY 

by 

Tess Kimble Follow Us: 

Although gaps in memory and general 

forgetfulness can be extremely 

frustrating, you can work to overcome 

these annoyances. These tips will help. 

A 

s 

you age, you will notice 

your memory skills are not 

as good as before. How can 

you keep your mind sharp 

as you age? Look to the tips 

in this article to improve your memory. 


37

1 

KEEP A JOURNAL 

Try writing things down to make it easier to remember. 

This exercise causes blood to flow to the area of the brain which 

is responsible for memory. You may significantly increase your 

ability to remember important things by making a habit of letter 

writing or journaling. 

Sleep apnea is a very unpleasant condition, causing discomfort, interrupted sleep, and other symptoms. Use 

these tips to create your treatment plan. 

 



2 

TAKE SHORT BREAKS 

Taking as little as a 5- to 15-minute 

break when studying or working at your 

desk allows your mind to refresh itself. Doing 

so will benefit your memory. This can 

also help your brain absorb information 

much better. 

3 

CHANGE YOUR STUDY LOCATIONS 

There is much to learn and then remember, 

so try studying the information 

in various locations. This prevents you 

from associating the information with one 

particular setting, which helps to instill it 

more deeply within you. Simply put, learning 

things in different locations makes 

it much easier for your brain to convert 

information into long-term memories. 

If you are studying, one way to improve 

your memory is by changing the 

environment in which you are studying. 

A change of environment refreshes the 

mind, and makes long-term memory more 

effective. Changing your routine stimulates 

your brain so that it is more alert 

and ready to absorb information. Your 

brain works more effectively after this kind 

of stimulation. 

4 

CLEAR YOUR MIND 

Paying attention is one of the best 

things you can do to improve memory. You 

may entertain yourself with ideas that you 

are paying adequate attention, when you 

are actually daydreaming. A wandering 

mind is not absorbing new information at 

optimal levels. Do the best you can to clear 

your mind so that you can focus on what’s 

being shown and said. Think hard about 

your subject and burn the information into 

your memory. 


39

5 

HAVE A POSITIVE OUTLOOK 

Stop focusing on the negatives, and your memory will become faster and clearer. 

People who suffer from depression are stressed out or have a negative outlook on life 

don’t remember things as well as people who are basically happy. Ask your doctor about 

ways to get rid of stress. 

6 

IMPROVE YOUR 

MEMORY WITH ASSOCIATIONS 

Association is one of the secrets to a 

great memory. If you’re trying to remember 

something, associate it with a 

funny image, song or phrase. A humorous 

association tagged onto someone’s 

name will help you remember it later on. 

To supplement memory, try rehearsing or 

relating the material you wish to remember 

with what you already know. For example, 

you can link information to a more familiar 

concept. Over time, this process will 

make it easier to store information in your 

long-term memory. 

7 

CONSIDER TAKING 

PRESCRIPTION DRUGS 

One especially scary aspect of aging is 

the loss of memory. Prescription medication 

is often used to help fight off signs of 

memory loss and dementia. Ask your doctor 

about prescription medications to 

boost your memory. 

8 

DON’T STOP 

LEARNING NEW THINGS 

Even if you’re not currently in college or 

school, take time to learn some new things. 

When you don’t try to learn new things, 

you aren’t exercising the area of your brain 

which controls memory. When you don’t 

stretch your memory on a regular basis, it 

is more likely that you will lose the ability. 

9 

GET PLENTY OF SLEEP 

Studies have shown that sleep is important 

to keep your memory in tip-top 

shape. A lack of concentration will lead to 

a great deal of difficulty in turning present 

happenings into permanent memories. Try 

to work on your sleep schedule so that you 

get more shuteye. 


SWITCH TO A HEALTHIER DIET 

Your memory, and your brain work best when you are receiving proper nutrition. 

One of the best ways to keep your mind sharp is to consume healthy fats. Get 

plenty of these healthy fats by eating foods such as fish and walnuts and using flax 

seed oil and olive oil instead of trans fat. 

LISTEN TO 

CLASSICAL MUSIC 

To improve your memory, try to put 

on classical music if you can. In general, 

music that is soothing will assist 

in bringing you to a more relaxed 

state, resulting in better memory.

STEPS TO 

PREVENTING 

AGING 

THE SMART WAY 

by 


Follow Us: 

The aging process 

doesn’t need to be a bad 

one. Take good care of 

your body and mind and 

you can still have an 

active and vibrant life! 

Everyone knows 

that people get 

older. But how 

quickly your 

body and mind 

show their age is partly up 

to you. By incorporating 

some new ideas, you can 

increase your longevity and 

have happy and healthy 

golden years. You will stay 

happier for many years to 

come by employing advice 

like that found below. 


45

Living healthily isn’t nearly as difficult as you may believe. Use this advice to become a happier and 

healthier person. 

 


1 

SPREAD PEACE AND JOY 

Whenever you can, spread peace and 

joy. If you can make someone else smile, 

you will smile yourself. A simple smile or 

a kind word is enough, and you should notice 

that other people treat you better. 

2 

ADD A PERSONAL 

TOUCH TO YOUR HOME 

As you get older, you may find that you 

are not living in the place that you once 

thought was going to be home for the 

rest of your days. Your new place will become 

familiar and home-like once you 

bring your own touches to it. Bring out the 

photographs or paintings, cushions, and 

decorations that gave your former home 

an air of comfort. They will make this new 

place feel like home too. 

3 

STOP WORRYING ABOUT NUMBERS 

If you are worried about aging, stop 

focusing on the numbers in your life. Focusing 

on numbers like height, weight, 

and age will distract you from what’s important. 

Let your doctor worry about the 

numbers, and they will tell you if you need 

to focus on anything; instead spend your 

time focusing on more important and 

fun things. 


4 

LOSE THE EXTRA POUNDS 

As metabolism slows down, many people gain weight with age. As you most likely 

know, there is a long list of diseases that are caused by excess weight. You can be a 

healthy weight if you keep moderately exercising and eating the right foods. 

5 

TAKE CARE OF YOUR EYESIGHT 

As you age, be careful with your eyes. 

Some minor loss of eye sight happens as 

you age, but make sure you regularly visit 

a doctor for eye exams to catch any more 

serious eye-related diseases to keep your 

eyes at their best. 

6 

LOOK AT THE BRIGHT SIDE 

See the bright side of aging. Age 

has its privileges, and you should focus 

on them rather than worrying about lost 

youth. Think of new and interesting ways 

to enjoy life, and be sure to take advantage 

of every opportunity that comes your way, 

living life to the fullest. 

7 

MAINTAIN HEALTHY 

BONE DENSITY 

Take care and wear well-supported shoes 

to avoid falling down. Seniors, whose 

bones are fragile, are most susceptible to 

serious injury from a fall. If you take 30 

minutes to walk about 3 times a week, you 

will help your balance and also maintain 

mental and physical fitness. Other strategies 

to maintain healthy bone density and 

avoid fractures include vitamin D and calcium 

supplements along with some basic 

strength training. 


47

8 

EAT MORE FISH 

Eat less red meat and more fish to 

prevent heart disease! Meat can clog your 

arteries, along with contributing to heart 

disease and other ailments. Fish, on the 

other hand, breaks up the cholesterol, so 

it is a great addition to your diet. 

9 

MAKE NEW FRIENDS 

A true, lifelong friendship offers energy, 

love and emotional sustenance to 

live happily. You are never too old to create 

new friendships. Take any opportunity 

to go out and make new friends, and you 

will enjoy life to the fullest. 

CHECK YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE REGULARLY 

The silent killer refers to high blood pressure because many people have no 

symptoms to alert them to this dangerous condition. As your cardiovascular systems 

deteriorate over time, it is of the utmost importance that you monitor your blood pressure. 

You will have an easy time noticing a problem when you are monitoring your blood 

pressure and will be able to address it quickly. 


TAKE UP AN OLD HOBBY 

After you retire or after the kids 

have left home, take up an old, beloved 

hobby again as a way to enjoy one of the 

benefits of the aging process. Now that you 

finally have plenty of time to focus on yourself, 

it is important to renew your interest 

in the things you once enjoyed. Hobbies not 

only keep you active but also fill those times 

when you may feel lonely or overwhelmed 

with what to do with yourself. 

CONSIDER SETTING GOALS 

Take time to enjoy living. Set goals 

for yourself. This way you will feel like you 

have risen. 

In conclusion, the aging process doesn’t 

need to be a bad one. You can still have 

an active and vibrant life provided that 

you take good care of your body and 

mind. Find ways to fit these tips into your 

daily life.

10 Surprisingly Easy Ways To 

Manage Snoring 

by 

Tess Kimble 

Is snoring ruining your sleep? 

Then read on for some natural 

solutions that can help you get the 

uninterrupted sleep that you’ve 

always needed. 

Follow Us: 

Tired of snoring? Just about everyone 

snores now and then, 

but snoring that interrupts 

sleep, damages life quality. 

The advice in the following article 

will help you minimize or even eliminate 

your snoring issues. 


53

1 

SLEEP ON YOUR SIDE 

Try to sleep in a different 

position. Most people 

snore when they are lying on 

their backs because gravity 

forces their head down, and 

your throat may slightly close 

up. If you sleep on your side, 

it will be easier to breathe; 

this also places less strain 

on the muscles of your neck. 

To reduce your snoring, try 

sleeping on the left side of your 

body. Hours and hours of snoring 

is enough to push your bed 

mate over the edge. Sleeping 

on the left hasn’t been proven 

scientifically to be better 

than sleeping on your right. 

Anecdotal evidence does exist 

to support side-sleeping and 

its ability to open airways and 

minimize snoring. 

The key to being healthy and feeling good about yourself is getting in shape. Follow these tips and get the 

maximum results of your fitness program. 

 



2 

KICK YOUR SMOKING HABIT 

Smoking can be a factor in your snoring 

levels. Quitting can ease this. Smoking 

causes the tissues in your throat to become 

irritated, which in turn causes your throat to 

swell. Swelling of the throat is the main contributor 

to the reasons that snoring occurs. 

Smoking can exacerbate snoring; therefore, 

it is important to quit smoking. If you 

find it impossible to stop smoking, then at 

least cut it off in the hours that precede 

sleep. Smoking causes your throat to swell 

up and your air passages to get much narrower. 

Narrow air passages mean you will 

snore more. Not smoking before bed will 

mean that your airways stay more open. 

3 

SKIP THE SLEEPING PILLS 

Sleeping pills can contribute to snoring, 

so you might get a better night’s sleep 

if you avoid them. Sleeping pills work by 

helping your muscles relax. As the muscles 

holding your nasal passages open relax, 

the passages narrow. This leads to snoring, 

not the result you were looking for! 

4 

UNCLOG YOUR NASAL PASSAGES 

If you wish to prevent snoring, you should ensure that your nasal passages are 

open. A nose that is clogged or constricted may be one of the causes of snoring. If you 

catch a cold try and unclog your nose by using vapor rubs, humidifiers, or steam showers. 

Nasal strips may also be tried as they help to lift open the nose, which allows more 

air to flow through. 


55

5 

CONSIDER USING NASAL STRIPS 

Nasal strips can help limit snoring. 

These strips resemble bandage strips. 

Their function is quite different from a 

Band-Aid, though. These strips open your 

nasal airways automatically. This can make 

it simpler to breathe through your nose, 

which can prevent snoring. 

6 

BUILD UP YOUR THROAT MUSCLES 

Some doctors believe that building 

up the muscles in your upper throat can 

end snoring problems. One doctor has suggested 

that singing can help reduce snoring 

because singing builds muscle in the throat 

and soft palate. A good muscle tone means 

your nasal pathways will not get narrower 

when you sleep and cause you to snore. 

You have the ability to improve snoring 

though implementing exercises. Try exercising 

your throat muscles for up to a half 

hour a day to strengthen the muscles and 

prevent nighttime collapses. Weak muscles 

can be strengthened by vocal and tongue 

exercises, thereby improving the capacity 

of upper portions of your respiratory system 

to develop. 

7 

DO NOT EXERCISE 

SOON BEFORE SLEEPING 

Avoid exercising during the last hour before 

bedtime. Physical exercise can take 

your breath away when you lie down. This 

will lead to constricted airways and excess 

snoring throughout the night. 

8 

WATCH WHAT YOU EAT AND DRINK 

Think about what you’re eating and 

drinking right before going to bed. Some 

foods and beverages can make you snore. 

Alcohol, muscle relaxants, and other medicines 

can cause your throat muscles to 

weaken. As these muscles become relaxed, 

they compromise your airway. As a result, 

you snore loudly. Drinking water is the best 

way to keep yourself properly hydrated as 

you sleep. 


9 

SHED THE EXTRA POUNDS 

You probably get tired of hearing 

this, but getting thin will probably make 

you snore less. Excess weight will accumulate 

all over the body, and this includes the 

neck area. By putting pressure on the airway, 

it can lead to snoring. 

GET ENOUGH SLEEP 

The proper amount of sleep can help 

to reduce your snoring. Having a consistent 

sleep schedule will also play a key role in 

the quality of your sleep. You should head 

for bed at the same time every night and 

get up around the same time each morning. 

There is a lot that you can do to reduce 

your snoring. Try a few of the tips offered 

here, and you might find that your snoring 

habit disappears. Stop snoring from 

ruining your sleep, and allow both you and 

your partner to get a better night’s sleep.

CHIROPRACTIC TIPS AND TRICKS 


9by 


Follow Us: 

People who suffer from back pain 

may seek relief from chiropractic 

care. Read on to learn how to 

maximize the healing benefits of the 

chiropractic process. 

Chiropractic care is extremely 

beneficial to back pain. Do you 

know anything about chiropractors? 

If you’d like to learn 

more to get help, read on. 

You’ll find tips that will help you through 

the chiropractic process. 


61

Living a better life may not be as difficult as you may think. Read on for some personal development tips that 

you can use to better yourself! 

 


1 

PAY ATTENTION TO 

THE WAY YOU SLEEP 

When you’re having chiropractic issues, 

be sure you’re focusing on sleeping in 

the right position. A cervical pillow placed 

under your neck as you sleep can help. 

These will let your head lay even as opposed 

to being pushed up by a pillow. 

Making adjustments to your sleeping position 

can help your back. Consider positioning 

a pillow beneath your head and shoulders. 

Next, place rolled-up towels beneath 

your neck and your knees. Doing this helps 

to stabilize the main areas of your body 

that curve. Also, if your mattress is old, 

you may want to replace it. 

2 

CHIROPRACTORS AREN’T 

MIRACLE WORKERS 

You surely might get some relief immediately 

after a session, but you can only 

heal after extended care. If your chiropractor 

says you need to follow a certain 

regimen, then you need to follow that 

advice to see good results. If you don’t 

follow the regimen, you may not like the 

results of your treatment. 


3 

DO YOUR RESEARCH 

Before seeing a chiropractor, do as 

much research on them as you can. There 

are lots of sincere chiropractors, but there 

are some who try to sell you all kinds of 

non-chiropractic merchandise. Always 

search online for reviews and references. 

When you are researching potential chiropractors, 

be sure to ask what types of conditions 

they treat. Chiropractors that are 

treating things other than back discomforts 

or other musculoskeletal problems 

are going outside of what will be seen as 

effective. Practitioners who just stick to 

the basic areas are more reliable. 

4 

KEEP YOUR WALLET 

IN YOUR FRONT POCKET 

You shouldn’t use your back pocket to carry 

a wallet. Carrying a wallet in your back pocket 

can negatively affect your lower back. 

It will cause pressure in your lower back, 

colon, and bladder. To ease this pressure, 

the wallet should be kept in the front pocket. 

If you carry a wallet, try to avoid putting 

it in your back pocket. Surprisingly 

enough, this is a source of lower back 

pain. This puts pressure on your lower 

back and the nerves that are connected to 

your colon, reproductive organs, bladder, 

and back of legs. Put your wallet in front 

pockets instead. 

5 

SEE YOUR PHYSICIAN FIRST 

Always see your regular doctor before 

you see a chiropractor. It’s a good 

idea to get a doctor to try and figure out 

what kind of issue you’re dealing with. This 

also allows your chiropractor to better understand 

how your particular issue should 

be handled. It is entirely possible that a 

chiropractor won’t offer the type of treatment 

that you need. There may be other, 

better alternatives. 


63

6 

SLEEP ON YOUR BACK 

If your back causes your problems, avoid sleeping on your stomach. When you 

sleep this way, it can cause your spine to slip out of the position it should be in. Instead, 

you should be sleeping on your back, and you should place pillows under the shoulders 

and knees. Also, put a rolled-up towel behind your neck. These strategies protect the 

primary spine curves. 

7 

SET UP A CONSULTATION 

MEETING BEFOREHAND 

When selecting a chiropractor, set up a 

meeting with them before you schedule 

an appointment. Visiting a chiropractor 

can dramatically improve your life. However, 

a bad chiropractor can make your 

life miserable. Trust is key, especially with 

your chiropractor. Always have a consultation 

before you begin any treatment 

or manipulations. 

8 

STANDING MAY 

STRAIN YOUR BACK 

Your back may become strained if you 

stand for too long. Putting a foot on a little 

stool, a low shelf, or a bar installed for this 

purpose can provide relief of stress to the 

lower back. If this is impossible, try to frequently 

shift your body’s weight. 

9 

STRETCH BEFORE GETTING UP 

If you have back issues, allow 

your back to wake up on its own schedule 

in the mornings. Stretch your body 

gently before getting up slowly. Do this 

while supporting your body with your 

arms as you swing your legs to the floor. 

Now that you know about the benefits of 

proper chiropractic care, you are ready to 

experience it for the first time. This article 

should have answered some questions 

that you may have had. You’re going to notice 

all kinds of changes; it is definitely a 

healing experience.

A 13-PART WALKTHROUGH ON 

HEALTHY EATING

difficult as you may believe. Use 

this advice to become a happier and 

healthier person.

some attention to proper 

nutrition. You may want to 

be more healthy, but do you

healthily isn’t nearly as difficult as you 

may believe. Use this advice to become a 

happier and healthier person. 


The aging process doesn’t need to be a bad one. Take good care of your body and mind and you can still have 

an active and vibrant life! 

 


1 

INCLUDE GARLIC IN YOUR DIET 

Add a garlic supplement to your daily 

diet, about 600-900mg per day. Garlic is 

a powerhouse antioxidant that has proven 

to be an effective tool in the fight against 

cancer, diabetes and heart disease. Garlic 

also has anti-fungal and antibacterial effects 

to help your organs. Try using cloves 

or garlic extracts in your food each day. 

2 

SNEAK SOME NUTRITION 

INTO YOUR NORMAL FOOD 

The stealthy way is by putting more nutritious 

items when cooking your normal 

food. This trick is often used on picky eating 

children, but you can use it to your own 

benefit, as well. Some things you could do 

would be to fortify blended concoctions 

with dry milk or to insert about one-half 

cup of white beans when you’re mixing 

something to bake. Everyone in your house 

will get some extra nutrition, and they will 

not even know about it. 

3 

AVOID FOOD WITH 

HIGH TRANS FAT CONTENT 

You should stay away from foods which 

contain a high amount of trans fat, like 

highly processed foods. You could be risking 

heart disease if your diet contains 

too many foods that are rich in trans fat. 

You need the kind of cholesterol referred 

to as HDL. Eating trans fat lowers the 

amount of HDL. 

4 

TAKE DAILY MULTIVITAMINS 

Eat a daily multivitamin to supplement 

your nutrition. This gives you an insurance 

policy in terms of your daily nutritional 

requirements. It is important to take 

multivitamins just in case your diet is lacking 

in something. 


69

5 

DO NOT SKIP BREAKFAST 

When constructing a healthy diet 

plan, make sure that a good breakfast is 

part of the plan. Breakfast begins your day. 

Breakfast also starts up your metabolism 

after sleeping all night. 

6 

WHIP UP A FRUIT SMOOTHIE 

Few things are as healthy and delicious 

as a fruit smoothie. There is an 

easy way to make your average smoothie 

even more tasty and nutritious. A good 

addition to any smoothie is cocoa powder 

because it is rich in antioxidants. 

Also, consider adding flax seed oils full 

of omega-3 acids. These can give you the 

nutrients that you need while providing 

antioxidants as well. 

7 

DO NOT SLEEP 

SOON AFTER EATING 

If you have trouble sleeping, your diet could 

be a factor. There are many foods with contrasting 

effects, from calming to energizing. 

It makes sense to allow the body to rest 

from eating before going to sleep. 

8 

OPT FOR NATURAL FOODS 

One good rule is that if it has to be 

microwaved, then it is probably not very 

nutritious. Skip microwaveable food if you 

would like to lose weight and improve your 

appearance. Eat natural foods as much 

as possible. 

9 

GO EASY ON POTATOES 

These days, potato foods, like french fries, are considered satisfying. We usually 

add a simple starch to every meal. Dropping potatoes and having vegetables instead 

could mean you are eating a lot less calories than you were. 


STOCK UP ON 

FROZEN VEGETABLES 

Always keep a good supply of frozen vegetables 

in your freezer so you will always 

have some to use. They are great for making 

quick, nutritional meals, when you 

don’t have time to prepare fresh produce. 

Freezing them prevents them from spoiling 

before you can use them. 

SWITCH TO FRESH BEETS 

While canned beets aren’t the 

healthiest of foods, fresh beets are very 

good for you. Fresh beets contain a ton 

of fiber and minerals, but the canned 

variety contains lots of salt. Steam the 

greens from the beets and add the beetroot 

to a salad. 

EXPLORE NEW FLAVORS 

To keep yourself interested 

and engaged in healthy eating habits, 

make an effort to explore new recipes 

and flavors. The challenge and novelty 

of mastering new dishes encourage 

healthy variety and keeps a diet from 

becoming repetitive and unappealing. 

It is also a way to make healthy eating 

fun and adventurous rather than boring 

and obligatory. 


71

KNOW YOUR SALAD 

Understanding salad is a good way 

to improve the diet you have. There is more 

to a salad than just dressing and lettuce. 

You can have a fruit salad or a grain salad. 

Be creative. Salads can easily be the main 

course, both cold and hot, without you 

feeling dissatisfied or hungry. Yes, salads 

can be a bit bland even when using your 

favorite dressing. This is why it’s a good 

idea to change up your flavors a bit and try 

new ones or create your own. Try adding 

some new fixings to your salads, such as 

dried fruit, napa cabbage, peanut butter, 

ginger, fresh herbs, berries, nuts, tahini, 

and more for a lively and nutritious meal. 

As you can see, being healthy is an easy 

lifestyle that is possible for anyone. Proper 

nutrition is vital to good health, and the 

food you eat is sure to have a huge impact 

on your overall sense of health. Using 

these nutrition tips, you can remake yourself 

into a vibrant, healthy person.

8 PRACTICAL OPTIONS FOR 

MANAGING TINNITUS 

by 


Follow Us: 

The constant ringing in your ears 

can affect your everyday activities. 

Here are some tips on how to manage 

tinnitus and gain control over your 

life again. 

Tinnitus can be difficult to deal 

with. The constant sounds in 

your head can severely limit 

your everyday activities. However, 

there is hope for relief. In 

this article, you will be provided with some 

good advice that can help you. 


There’s no need for discolored, yellow or stained teeth these days when there are whitening solutions available. 

Here are a few of those solutions. 

 


1 

LISTEN TO WHITE NOISE 

Turn on a machine that creates background 

noise, such as a radio or fan, when 

your tinnitus flares up. The background 

noise will help decrease the amount you 

notice the tinnitus. If the only noise you 

hear is tinnitus, it’s easy to fixate on the 

sound and become more aggravated by it. 

Do not deal with the suffering of tinnitus 

while you are at home. Turn on the fan 

from the cooling and heating system in 

your home as this provides a white noise 

effect. Other options are a little space fan 

or a gentle meditation fountain in each 

room. If you have background noise in 

every room of your house, you’ll only have 

to worry about tinnitus when you’re away 

from it. Wherever you’re going, there will 

probably be plenty of distracting noise. 

2 

TRY GOING TO BEHAVIOR THERAPY 

Ultimately, your goal will be to find 

ways to avoid fixating on the ringing or 

buzzing. Professional therapy can help 

you work through issues that may exasperate 

your tinnitus symptoms. Doing this 

means you are better able to cope with 

and manage your affliction. If you allow 

your tinnitus dominance over your life, 

finding happiness is going to prove a hard 

task to accomplish. 


77

3 

KEEP STRESS AT BAY 

Tinnitus can be exacerbated 

by stress, so maintaining an organized, 

low-stress lifestyle is important. 

Seek work you can do in a non-stressful 

manner. Also, make sure to relax 

an ample amount with those you love. 

Get rid of anything stressful in your life to 

help treat your tinnitus. Become aware of 

the stress you are experiencing, and learn 

to understand how it will affect any of 

your ailments, including your tinnitus. As 

your stress level increases, you will find it 

more difficult to deal with the discomfort 

of your tinnitus symptoms. You can better 

deal with tinnitus if you aren’t so stressed 

out about other problems. 

4 

ADD ANTI-INFLAMMATORY 

FOODS TO YOUR DIET 

There is scientific data suggesting that 

tinnitus may be linked to inflammation. It 

makes more sense to have an anti-inflammatory 

diet for controlling your tinnitus. 

This means you have to eat more fruits 

and vegetables, more salmon, as well as 

flaxseed oil. 

5 

KEEP VOLUMES AT SENSIBLE LEVELS 

Keep the volume reasonable when you watch television and listen to music. Loud 

music may sound good, but continued exposure to loud noises can cause hearing loss, 

as well as putting you at risk for developing or worsening tinnitus. Always carry earplugs 

when you will be participating in activities with an excessive noise level, and keep the 

volume at a sensible level on the listening devices you use. 


6 

JOIN A SUPPORT GROUP 

Try finding other people with tinnitus. Joining a support group or two can help you 

deal with negative emotions associated with your tinnitus. You are definitely not alone 

in the struggle with this condition, and by talking to other people who are dealing with it, 

you can learn a lot of potential treatments to try out on your own case. 

7 

GO EASY ON THE BOOZE 

It is common practice to drink alcohol 

when celebrating something or just to 

calm one’s nerves. The dilation of blood 

vessels, which results in a more forceful 

blood flow, is something you should keep 

in mind. This can create the noise that you 

hear all the time in your ears. So, try your 

best to reduce the amount you drink to 

help alleviate any tinnitus symptoms you 

may be experiencing. 

8 

GO FOR A WALK 

Walking outdoors can help relieve tinnitus 

symptoms. You might get some relief 

from fresh air, and you can relax if you stay 

active. During your walks, pay attention 

to how the world around you affects your 

tinnitus. Certain loud sounds may worsen 

your tinnitus. It may help to list sounds that 

aggravate your tinnitus. That way you can 

be sure and try to avoid them in the future. 

What you’ve read should have provided you 

with some of the answers you were seeking, 

along with some tips you wouldn’t have 

even known you should be looking for. No 

one has to let that constant ringing ruin 

their life. See which of these tips can assist 

you in gaining control of your tinnitus.

If you are depressed, you should remember that you are not the only one suffering 

from depression. When you feel all alone and like no one can understand what you are 

going through, this will make your depression worse, even if it is not true. Somebody out 

there is either dealing with the same thing or will help you manage your issues.

FIND A SUPPORT GROUP 

Online forums can offer you support. 

The anonymity surrounding online discussion 

forums can help you open up. Many 

different sites have groups available. 

UNDERSTAND YOUR DEPRES- 

SION 

Try to know what your depression is about. 

Depression can manifest itself in both physical 

and psychological ways. When stressed 

for long periods of time, your brain ends up 

producing lower amounts of serotonin. A 

reduction in seratonin can cause your feelings 

of depression to increase dramatically. 

A doctor may prescribe antidepressants as 

part of your treatment plan; many of these 

medications work by stimulating your brain 

to produce more serotonin. There are other 

natural ways to make your serotonin levels 

higher. Minimize your use of caffeine and 

alcohol, be sure to get plenty of sleep, exercise 

regularly, and eat a proper diet. 



When battling depression, it is 

important to keep stress in check. Feeling 

stressed out can intensify the feelings of 

depression. Examine what is happening 

in your life, and then determine what it is 

that is causing you stress. Once you have 

identified your stress triggers, you can 

create a plan for avoiding them. 

SWITCH TO ORGANIC FOODS 

Try treating your depression by 

going green. Today’s foods carry many 

toxic additives. These can have a negative 

effect on both mind and body chemistry. 

Eating organic foods is one great 

tip to helping you cope with depression. 

You can find organic products all over 

the place. 

IDENTIFY YOUR DEPRESSION TRIGGERS 

One basic strategy that can help you manage depression is to attack 

the individual problems that are triggering your depressed feelings. Knowing 

what your triggers are will make it easier to determine what is causing your depression. 

When you spot a trigger, do what you can to get rid of it or change it. 

There are many ways to treat depressions of all kinds. It is important to treat depression 

correctly if you wish to overcome it. Remember these tips so you can get rid of 

your depression.

OPTIONS TO FEEL 

GOOD ABOUT 

Follow Us: 

by

yellow or stained teeth these 

days when there are whitening 

solutions available. Here are a 

few of those solutions. 

It is time to start smiling 

more! You will not have 

to hide your stained 

teeth anymore. You are 

lucky because today 

there are a lot of treatments available 

that will give you a nice white 

smile. Whether you want professional 

treatments, or a do-it-yourself 

home kit, you can choose from 

several different options to get a 

beautiful smile.

The constant ringing in your ears can affect your everyday activities. Here are some tips on how to manage 

tinnitus and gain control over your life again. 

 


1 

CONSIDER CROWNS 

OR OTHER DENTAL WORK 

When deciding whether or not to have your 

teeth whitened, consider whether or not 

you have crowns or other dental work. Natural 

surfaces are affected to a much greater 

degree by the whitening process than are 

synthetic surfaces. These products are not 

effective at whitening artificial teeth surfaces. 

This includes veneers, fillings, crowns, 

or any dental implant. If you have artificial 

surfaces in your mouth and attempt teeth 

whitening, the natural teeth will whiten, 

while the other surfaces will not. 


2 

WHITENING PRODUCTS 

MAY CAUSE SENSITIVITY 

It is possible for teeth to become sensitive 

to whitening products. The sensitivity will 

be temporary, but you will have a lot of 

discomfort. If this occurs, make sure you 

set an appointment with your dentist. They 

could possibly give you alternative products 

that won’t have such poor side effects. 

While you are using a teeth whitening product, 

if you feel your teeth getting sensitive, 

stop the treatment immediately. Continuing 

to use the product can damage your 

teeth, and you should get the advice of a 

medical professional. Visit your dentist to 

find the best options available. 

3 

KEEP A TOOTHBRUSH WITH YOU 

A toothbrush will come in handy 

when you enjoy a sticky sweet treat; such 

foods are bad for the teeth, likely to cause 

stains, and, worst of all, sticky enough to 

hang around for a while. After you eat the 

sweet treat, brush your teeth for two minutes. 

Toothpaste is not necessary in this 

instance, just scrub well and rinse with a 

lot of water. 

4 

SKIP THE WHITENING STRIPS 

Whitening strips are popular among 

those who want a brighter smile. However, 

some whitening strips are only as effective 

as the leading whitening toothpaste. Ask 

your dentist if he or she sees better results 

with a particular brand of toothpaste. 

5 

DON’T FORGET TO DRINK WATER 

To keep your teeth white, drink water 

after consuming beverages that can stain 

your teeth. By drinking water after drinking 

dark liquids like tea or coffee could 

help stop your teeth from being stained by 

pigments. Another option is to drink these 

through a straw or use non-skim milk with 

your coffee. 


93

6 

ASK FOR A WHITENING HOME GEL 

Ask your dentist if he offers an at 

home gel that will whiten teeth. The dentist 

will give you a mouthpiece that is filled 

with gel, so you should wear it each night 

for a few hours for approximately two or 

three weeks. A whitening gel can improve 

the whiteness of your teeth by up to eight 

shades. 

7 

VISIT YOUR DENTIST REGULARLY 

Routine dental visits are a great way 

to improve the whiteness of your teeth. 

Regular dental cleanings are one of the 

easiest and best ways to whiten teeth. You 

should visit your dentist at least twice a 

year for cleanings. 

8 

USE BAKING SODA AS A WHITENER 

Combine baking soda and water to 

create a paste which will help to whiten 

your teeth. Although baking soda is an 

abrasive, it is very gentle and can effectively 

remove stains, leaving your teeth clean 

and bright. Dip your toothbrush in water 

and then in baking soda so that the powder 

will stick to it. 

9 

BRUSH YOUR TEETH OFTEN 

To get white teeth, you ought to brush your teeth as soon as you wake up each 

morning. You should also brush your teeth before you go to bed at night. Dry mouth occurs 

at night because this is when bacteria and plaque grow. 


INVEST IN AN 

ELECTRIC TOOTHBRUSH 

An electric toothbrush is a great investment 

if you want to whiten your teeth. 

These brushes are ideal for removing 

tartar and plaque from the teeth. This will 

help to rid your teeth of yellow staining. 

Keep your expectations realistic 

when you whiten 

your teeth, whatever 

method you 

use. If you expect 

a lot when whitening 

your teeth, you 

might feel let down 

if you can’t get them as 

white as you hoped. There 

are many variables that affect 

the color of your teeth, and 

they play a big role in any whitening 

methods used. Speak to your dentist 

before doing any whitening so 

you will know what you can expect. 

There’s no need for discolored, yellow 

or stained teeth these days when there 

are whitening solutions available. All of 

the different solutions that exist, like 

whitening toothpaste, home kits, and 

dental treatments, make whitening 

teeth easy. Many of the products are 

affordable and only take a short time 

before you see results.

11 Skin Care Keys For 

Smoother 

Skin 

Without 

Acne 

by 

Tess Kimble 

Follow Us: 

Acne isn’t just a problem experienced by 

teenagers. By using these tips, you will 

be knowledgeable enough to control 

your acne and minimize the impact. 

Acne is often seen as a teenage 

problem, but many adults may 

suffer from the effects of acne 

as well. In this article, you will 

learn how to identify the cause 

of your acne to resolve it. By educating 

yourself about the causes and treatments 

of acne, you will suffer less from its effects. 


99

1 

AVOID TEETH 

WHITENING PRODUCTS 

Consider temporarily avoiding products 

that are made to whiten teeth. If 

you have frequent breakouts near your 

mouth, the situation may be related 

to products used on your teeth. Tooth 

whitening products of all descriptions 

can cause acne problems. Your lips and 

the surrounding skin is a sensitive area 

prone to breakouts. 

2 


Avoiding stressful situations is 

the best way to manage the stress in 

your life. Stress doesn’t cause acne 

by itself. However, it can exacerbate 

existing acne. 

3 

GET SOME SUN 

Getting more sunshine might be 

just the trick if you want to get fewer 

blemishes. Exposing skin to the harsh 

heat of the sun will cause your skin to 

dry up. This can worsen your acne at 

first because it will all come to the surface. 

Within a few weeks, you should 

experience clearer skin. 

Deciding to quit smoking might be a very difficult one, but it is an ultimately rewarding decision that you will 

never regret. Use these suggestions. 

 



4 

SWITCH TO NATURAL 

SKIN CARE PRODUCTS 

If you are experiencing a hard time ridding 

yourself of acne, try some skin care products 

that are made with natural products. 

Sometimes the complex chemical ingredients 

in many products can aggravate your 

skin and worsen an acne condition. This can 

block your pores and increase your acne. 

Natural products can help your skin heal because 

they contain antibacterial products. 

Only use all-natural skin products if you have 

acne. Many other products have chemicals 

in them that can cause your skin to become 

irritated. If you are using a product which 

contains these harsh chemicals, it’s likely 

that they will absorb too much oil from your 

face, leaving it dry and stiff. Your skin will react 

by trying to replace the oil, which throws 

it out of balance and can increase acne. 

5 

KEEP YOUR PHONE 

AWAY FROM YOUR FACE 

Did you know that talking on your cell 

phone might be the cause of a breakout? 

Cell phones collect oil from your face and 

hair and then puts it back on your face. 

Clean your phone gently with an alcohol 

wipe to remove facial oil buildup. To keep 

the oil from getting back on your skin, 

don’t put your phone right next to your 

face while using it. 

6 

NEVER POP YOUR PIMPLES 

One should avoid popping pimples 

and touching their face if they plan to 

improve their acne. Touching your face 

transfers oil and debris from your hands, 

which is a major trigger for breakouts. Additionally, 

popping blemishes is risky and 

can sometimes result in pain, infections, 

and scarring. 


101

7 

USE PRODUCTS WITH SALICYLIC ACID 

Skin care products containing salicylic acid work best to treat acne. In fact, salicylic 

acid is one of the most commonly seen ingredients on the labels of acne treatment 

products. When salicylic acid is combined with beta hydroxyl acids, the cells of skin 

shed quickly. 

8 

AVOID TOUCHING YOUR FACE 

You might want to scratch or touch 

your face. However, the hands have dirt and 

oils on them that will go on your face. The 

dirt becomes trapped in the pores causing 

inflammation that can lead to breakouts. 

Do not touch the areas that are breaking 

out. Touching your face can only make your 

acne worse by spreading the dirt and oil 

that is causing it. Make an attempt to keep 

your hands away from your face. Gestures 

like propping up on your hands and rubbing 

your nose can worsen acne problems. 

9 

DO NOT USE OIL-BASED MAKEUP 

If at all possible, refrain from applying 

oil-based makeup. Oil-based makeup 

tends to clog the pores and cause acne 

breakouts. Oil-based makeup is the main 

cause of various acne problems. Even 

though some products claim they are oilfree, 

they may not be. These products contain 

chemicals that cause breakouts. 


KEEP YOURSELF HYDRATED 

If you stay hydrated you will be 

more prone to get rid of your acne. Make 

sure you drink adequate water daily. 6 

to 8 glasses per day is recommended. 

The dead skin can cause blockage of 

your pores and lead to more acne. 

WIPE AWAY YOUR SWEAT 

When trying to prevent acne, 

it is vital not to let sweat stay on your 

body for too long. The longer your body 

has sweat on it, the greater the chance 

your pores will get clogged, which can 

lead to acne. If you sweat a lot then 

you should take a brief warm shower. 

As stated, acne isn’t just a problem experienced 

by teenagers. It can continue 

well into the adult lives of many individuals. 

By utilizing the information provided 

here, you will be knowledgeable 

enough to be able to control your acne 

and minimize the impact.

10 PERSONAL 

DEVELOPMENT HINTS TO 

IMPROVE YOUR LIFE 

by 


Follow Us: 

Living a better life may not be 

as difficult as you may think. 

Read on for some personal 

development tips that you can 

use to better yourself! 

Personal development can 

help you live a better life. 

Is living a better life something 

that you would like to 

accomplish? Follow the tips 

below on how to better yourself. 


107

1 

READ A BOOK ON 

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT 

Always read from multiple sources on personal 

development. A good personal development 

book can give you great advice 

and ideas that can change your life. Pick 

out a book that has gotten good reviews 

because there are some books about personal 

development that are not written 

very well. 

People who suffer from back pain may seek relief from chiropractic care. Read on to learn how to maximize the 

healing benefits of the chiropractic process. 

 



2 

GET SOME EXERCISE 

Exercise can benefit almost anyone, 

even those who are not trying to shed excess 

weight. There are many reasons you 

should do physical exercise. Exercise stimulates 

the production of substances in 

your body that help calm you. 

3 

LEARN TO COMPLIMENT 

Give others compliments. Try to replace 

any negative comments with positive 

ones, and see if this helps you become 

more positive as an individual. Instead of 

boasting about trophies, awards, and medals, 

try asking others about their achievements. 

You will then find out things what 

others have done to accomplish their 

goals, and you will get some insight. 

4 

SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP 

Whereas trying to fix your problems 

yourself is always a great idea, sometimes 

you might have to seek out professional 

help. Sometimes it takes a professional, 

outside perspective to identify the 

real source of a problem and this cannot 

be found in self-help books. Sometimes, 

success happens by simply talking 

problems through. Books can’t talk back 

like a trained professional, after all. 

Arrange a meeting to speak with a counselor 

or clergy member. Spiritual and secular 

counselors are licensed, trained and 

experienced in dealing with a number of 

different issues. You will find that they 

are eager to hear what you have to say 

and assess your situation in such a way 

that will further your personal growth. 

Talking out your problems with a professional 

can make you much happier 

and healthier. 


109

5 

SWITCH TO A HEALTHIER DIET 

When dealing with depression issues, altering your diet to include a greater intake 

of complex carbohydrate may help. Serotonin can be depleted without enough complex 

carbs in your diet. Raw vegetables along with fresh fruits, whole grains and nuts are good 

sources of complex carbohydrates. 

6 

WATCH A MOVIE WITH A FRIEND 

A great self-help tip to deal with anxiety 

is to accompany a friend to the movies. 

Movies are wonderful ways to socialize without 

feeling like you have to carry on a conversation. 

You will also begin to get comfortable 

being around large groups of people. 

7 

ORGANIZE YOUR LIFE 

Don’t be disorganized anywhere in 

your life. If you can get your life organized 

and keep it that way, you will see a real 

boost to your self-confidence. Better yet, 

you will no longer worry about finding necessary 

things or dealing with the stress 

that comes with living in a cluttered environment. 

The knowledge that everything is 

located in its proper place is calming. 

8 

LEAD A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE 

The way that you feel mentally 

has a large effect on how you feel physically. 

Develop a regular fitness routine 

and follow a nutritious, satisfying 

diet plan. If you wish to have a body 

and mind that are healthy, you need to 

know that they depend on each other. 

You will be healthier and you will go 

further than you ever thought possible. 

Everyone feels better when they are 

healthy. Your mind is less cloudy, and 

you can even gain more free time and 

cut down on expenses because you won’t 

need to visit the doctor as frequently. 

Make better choices, dedicate yourself 

to it. 


9 

LOOK FOR NEW WAYS TO 

CHALLENGE YOURSELF 

New challenges can create many possibilities. 

You may learn new things and learn 

new skills. You may even want to achieve 

something that has never been done before. 

Rather than following in other people’s 

footsteps, try doing your own thing 

and forging your own path. 

LEARN TO LISTEN 

Someone might have told you 

that listening skills are just as essential 

as speaking skills. This rule is equally important 

to personal development. When 

your situation is telling you that you need 

to do something, listen and make the 

necessary changes. Listening to what you 

tell yourself will help you know what you 

need and how to best improve yourself. 

In conclusion, living a better life may not 

be as difficult as you might think. Take 

the bull by the horns and put some effort 

into changing things about your life that 

need to be more desirable. You will soon 

see that the rewards will be too numerous 

to mention.

rewarding decision that you will never

or that they lack the willpower

Each time you resist a craving 

to puff, you’re one step closer 

to stopping cigarette use for good. The tips 

and techniques from the following article 

will help you take that crucial first step to 

a smoke-free life. 


115

Acne isn’t just a problem experienced by teenagers. By using these tips, you will be knowledgeable enough to 

control your acne and minimize the impact. 

 


1 

CONSIDER GETTING A HYPNOSIS 

Might hypnosis work for you? Seeing 

a licensed hypnotist can be effective 

and has proven successful for many people. 

After you are placed in a deep trance, 

the hypnotist will offer you positive affirmations 

that remain embedded in your 

memory. After the trance is broken, you 

may find that cigarettes hold little appeal, 

which puts you even closer to your 

goal of quitting. 

2 

TAKE EACH DAY AS IT COMES 

Giving up nicotine is a slow process. 

Don’t waste your time thinking about next 

year, next month, or even next week. Today 

is all you should be worrying about, 

so make sure you’re not smoking right 

now, and your todays will start adding up 

to forever. 

3 

EXERCISE ON A REGULAR BASIS 

Commit your free time and energy 

to exercising more, both as a means of 

improving your health and as a means of 

avoiding cigarettes. Exercise can also act 

as a stress reliever. Do not let your lack of 

exercise impede you. Start small and move 

forward from there. Make sure to discuss 

any exercise routine with your doctor before 

beginning it. 

4 

TRY NICOTINE 

REPLACEMENT THERAPY 

Some people don’t like the idea of quitting 

cold turkey, so they give nicotine replacement 

therapy a try. These over-the-counter 

medications supply your body with nicotine 

while you work to break the habit. 

This helps you stave off the worst of the 

physical withdrawal symptoms. 


5 

STAY AWAY FROM TRIGGERS 

As you work on quitting, steer clear of the things that you mentally link with 

smoking. Consider alternate activities during the times you normally would have had 

a cigarette. Look for a positive alternative to fill the time and distract your mind. 

Stay away from trigger activities or symptoms in which you would normally smoke. For 

example, it may be necessary to switch up your daily routine, especially if your routine 

includes dedicated smoking times. If you don’t go to happy hour, you may be able to 

avoid the cravings. 

6 

STAY COMMITTED TO YOUR GOAL 

Before starting to quit smoking, be 

able to stay committed to quitting for good. 

Most people who quit do so because of a 

lack of willpower. You can strengthen your 

resolve by reminding yourself constantly 

of the many reasons that make it important 

for you to quit. 

7 

PROTECT YOUR FAMILY’S HEALTH 

People exposed to secondhand 

smoke are at higher risk of developing some 

different cancers and other conditions. By 

quitting, you not only improve your health, 

but you are also helping the people around 

you as well. This means that not only will 

quitting make you healthier, but it will also 

make your loved ones healthier, too. 

8 

INFORM YOUR 

FAMILY AND FRIENDS 

Let your loved ones know that you want to 

stop smoking. They will push you to continue 

with your quitting journey. A support 

system of family and friends is the best 

thing for you. This will boost your chances 

of finally being smoke-free for life. 

9 

THOROUGHLY CLEAN YOUR HOUSE 

If your home smells of smoke, thoroughly 

clean it. Get your carpet and upholstery 

professionally cleaned, remove residue 

from the walls, and run your drapes 

and curtains through the wash. This will 

make it so you aren’t reminded of smoking 

each time you come into your home because 

it will have a clean, fresh smell. 


117

FIND A SUPPORT GROUP 

Find support by joining online forums 

or communities for those who are trying 

to quit. There are quite a few websites 

entirely focused on helping smokers give 

up their habit. It might help you to compare 

quitting strategies and coping mechanisms 

with others. Furthermore, people 

who are quitting alongside you will understand 

the unique emotional struggles that 

accompany this journey. 

LEARN TO SAY NO TO EVEN ONE 

PUFF 

Make your goal to smoke not even one 

puff. It is easy to tell yourself that one 

cigarette will be fine, but it may undo all 

of your dedication and hard work, and 

it isn’t worth it in the long run. One puff 

will lead to one cigarette, one pack, one 

carton; one puff is one puff too many! 

Deciding to quit smoking might be a very difficult 

one, but it is an ultimately rewarding 

decision that you will never regret. That’s not 

to say it’s impossible, however. Of course, it 

is a process that requires time, perseverance 

and commitment. The more knowledgeable 

you are, the better equipped you will be to 

attain your goal. Use the suggestions outlined 

above, and being smoke-free could be 

right around the corner for you.
