Update on fat busters

  • Pine Nuts
    – need enough to fill a shot glass daily
    – at any time of the day
    – help control cravings
    – hunger supressing hormones
    – can be eaten raw, ground up or can drizzle pine nut oil in soups or salads!

  • Garcinia Cambogia
    – found in India and south Asia, this is an extract compound found in the rind of the fruit.
    – for convenience, you can buy these in capsules. Make sure: GCE (extract content) is 50% or more, it is better absorbed with potassium and calcium.
    – you should take this 30mins-1hour before eating your meal, 1500mg-3000mgs a day
    – it converts fat /sugar intake into energy
    – suppresses cravings
    – burns fat cells you already have (especially around the stomach) and recomposits into muscle.
    – although they say you do not need to exercise and look after your diet – I suggest you still continue these

Autumn

Happy new week!

Another week beginning and its time for the weekly suggestions update:

This week is all about your skin care routine!

Start small.

Make sure of 2 things at least:

1. Cleanse

2. Moisturize

Morning and night please ladies!

The dirt from the day and oils from the night will create bacteria and this is why it is so important.

Intermediate:

1. Cleanse

2. Tone

3. Moisturize

4. Sun protection

5. Exfoliate once a week

Why>>

  • Toning closes pores after washing and takes off any extra/excess dirt from the skin
  • Sun protection delays aging and skin pigmentation
  • exfoliating helps with skin cell turnover, blood circulation and helps get rid of skin imperfections (acne, blemishes, scarring, blackheads)

Experts:

1. Cleanse

2. Tone

3. Moisturize

4. Sun protection

5. Exfoliate once a week

6. Mask once a month

>> as well as this, some may like microdermabrasions (great for clearing scars, blemishes and creates an amazing natural glow to your skin)

Which stage are you on?
