| Better Health & Beauty with Rose Hips - Associated Content Posted: 09 Sep 2010 08:09 AM PDT Not overlooked, but possibly underestimated, the noble rose in all it's varieties has served human health and beauty well throughout the centuries. Roses are common and lovely, they have a sweet Harvest and Preparation Gathering rose hips is said to be best just before or just after the first frost of the cold season. To prepare rose hips for making food, you need to be sure you remove the rose seeds themselves from the inside. (Each seed is covered with a lining that's said to be not so nice on your digestive system.) As long as you take care of the seeds, your rose hips can be eaten freshly harvested from the garden. You can cook, dry, or preserve them yourself as well. Rose hips are related to apples and plums, and their taste is similar to that of a crab apple mixed with the rose flower itself.

| You Docs: Keeping track of your health can be easier with the Internet - Oregonian Posted: 01 Sep 2010 04:58 AM PDT Published: Wednesday, September 01, 2010, 5:00 AMThe beauty of the Internet is that you never have to walk alone. It can hook you up not only with trackers and tools, but with a network of support buddies to push, prod and cheer you on. The same technologies that let you gawk at videos of dancing cats or reconnect with what's-his-name from second grade can give you a healthier body.Here are six proven ways to kick off your own e-health revolution: 1. Beep! Take that pill! Up to 45 percent of us don't take prescription drugs the way the doctor intended. That can put you at risk for nasty drug reactions and wild rides to the emergency room. Instead, download a clever iPhone app called Medsy. It stores schedules for multiple medications and sends you discreet take-me-now reminders with instructions. And no, it doesn't need cell-phone coverage to work.2. Stop counting calories in your head. If you're constantly running a mental calorie tab, these apps are for you. They track calories eaten/burned, portion sizes and food choices -- and tracking can boost your weight loss by up to 50 percent. Make it simple with DailyBurn.com, an online site plus iPhone app that logs calories in and calories out (how many you burn forking in another bite). A site called FatSecret.com has downloadable apps that track calories for Droid and Blackberry users. Another Droid download at CardioTrainer.com tracks your running or walking pace and calories burned. 6. Never feel alone. Find groups of sharing, caring people facing the same health issues at sites like PatientsLikeMe.com, or online communities at the websites of major health organizations, like the American Heart Association, the American Diabetes Association, the Arthritis Foundation and others. Computer support groups help people fighting everything from breast cancer to fibromyalgia boost well-being, ease depression, feel empowered -- and share a few much-needed laughs for stress relief.

| Are Gap Teeth the Next Big Beauty Feature? - Ethiopian Review Posted: 09 Sep 2010 02:00 PM PDT Remember when Angelina Jolie started the vogue for majorly pillowy pouts, practically launching the entire lip plumping industry? Well now, according to The Wall Street Journal, it looks like gap teeth could be the next big "It" facial feature. With young stars like Anna Paquin, Demi Lovato, and model Lara Stone wearing their diastema (the dental term for a gap) proudly, apparently some people like the look so much they're having a gap put in their teeth to add to their sex appeal. Putting aside the fact that declaring a part of someone's body to be "cool" or not is kind of absurd in the first place, do you think we'll all be wearing faux gaps in a few years' time, or will a gap-toothed smile remain a pretty, but relatively unique, feature? - BellaSugar.com This entry passed through the Full-Text RSS service — if this is your content and you're reading it on someone else's site, please read our FAQ page at fivefilters.org/content-only/faq.php This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
