wishful thinking!

DGH — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 05:09:18 +0000

Yeah, I’m still deep into my preparation for our most-awaited trip back to my beloved and much-missed home country, and I can’t help but notice how I’ve “filled in” since I have last gone home. Naturally, as I have to go through the clothes I have to bring with me, and this means I have to include only the ones that fit me. I have then to plan how to be back to my previous figure, as I don’t want everybody back home to comment that I’ve “bloated”, though in a sense it’s true!

I’m sure there are many others like me who would want an instant weight loss result. Well, I bet they’re choosing over a lot of diet and weight loss options, reading apidexin reviews or asking recommendations from friends and even licensed physicians or trainors. As for me, maybe I could just do exercise? Hmmm… Wishful thinking again! Tee hee.

want to look like an action star?

So many drugs and food supplements are being introduced to the market to help boost energy. In the net, I have found out one that would help build fast muscle growth, at the same time burns fats and increases stamina and energy, a good testosterone booster. This would appeal to those who want to look like a hunk or one of their favorite Hollywood action stars. The website however has a disclaimer that it does not intend to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease, but that one will try if it suits his physical build, as one person varies from another in terms of what is right for his body or not. It claims however to be side-effect free.

choose wisely for your health

With so many available vitamins and food supplements in the market today, one who is serious about being in good physical condition has to research which supplement is in harmony with his body system. We have to remember that no two bodies are the same in their metabolism and in their response to whatever it is that the body takes in, be it pills or food. For instance, one pill could work effectively with a certain individual but may cause some harmful side effects to another.

And when it comes to diet pills, it’s important therefore for one to take time to read through diet pill reviews. One should always take into consideration his/her medical background, this is one factor that should be the basis in choosing a diet pill.

right diet for wellness

We commonly hear now of people dying because of various types of cancer. A prominent one who suffered from this was a popular and well-loved former president of the Philippines. With such cases brought into the limelight, many are now aware of having the right diet as a precautionary measure to avoid the disease. These days, more and more people are becoming health-conscious and determined to live a healthier life.

Some would also consider searching for the best colon cleansers, complete multivitamins or herbal food products to add to their daily intake of food supplements. It’s also best to regularly include fruits and vegetables in our diet as they contain fiber and nutrients which will serve as cleaning agents of our stomach. I imagine them sweeping away the toxins and unhealthy substances that would stick to our digestive system.

going back to the basics

A lot of high-end spending has been put on hold since the US economic crisis. But nowadays, the wealthy are spending again although cautiously this time, examining the best deals and value for their money. According to an article I’ve just read, high-end spending on luxury hotels, private jets, luxury sailboats and powerboats or precious jewelry are slowly coming back. I think the wealthy have now learned from the financial crisis and have become wiser about their purchases particularly with overspending.

Along with the basic goods, consumers are now spending their hard-earned salary mostly on beauty, health and wellness, from anti-aging creams to diet pills and food supplements. People are being careful with spending this time, focusing more on healthy living and having a stress-free lifestyle without breaking their bank accounts.

still looking good beyond 60

One of the people I admire is my Auntie L who’s still active and looking good even at 70 plus. Last year she visited the Philippines and met my Mom and sister and stayed with them in Manila.

If you observe Auntie L’s face, it’s so smooth and wrinkle-free but according to her, she doesn’t use any soap, she just washes her face with… water! Yup, that’s right. She’s also including lots and lots of nutrient-rich papaya in her diet. Her favorite hot drink is rice coffee which she prepares herself by roasting rice grains in a pot. Rice coffee is caffeine-free and a healthy alternative to the regular coffee most people consume and it has that native coffee taste.

My auntie is still very much physically active compared to other people her age who already need natural arthritis treatments and other prescribed medications to maintain their health. Keep it up Auntie L!

sweet tooth

My little girl is fond of lollipops these days, even my sis noticed that most of her pics has her licking a lollipop. My sis is just concerned that too much sweets can be bad for my little girl’s teeth. Well, she’s not like those who crave for Swisher Sweets, and I’m sure it could be just a “sweet tooth” phase she’s going through. She’s not a choosy eater and can appreciate healthy food such as veggies and fruits, but I’ll be monitoring her sweets intake for sure.

no prenatal vitamins and yet…

DGH — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 20:07:12 +0000

Having experienced being pregnant twice here in Prague, I have noticed that my doctor didn’t prescribe prenatal vitamins to me. It was only after some tests that showed I lacked iron that he recommended me to take iron tablets, other than that, he didn’t tell me to take other supplements. I had to ask him if it was okay to take calcium as I know I will be needing it coz according to my mom, a woman loses calcium when giving birth. He gave me the go-signal telling me that its an over-the-counter-drug.

Anyway, it was fine with me even if I didn’t have special prenatal vitamins coz I am not really fond of taking medicines. When I am sick, I would usually resort to home remedies first, rather than take medicines. So far, both my pregnancies were alright. I was in good health and there were no problems with my deliveries.

running barefooted

DGH — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 21:16:30 +0000

I haven’t been on the go lately, after giving birth few months ago. Thus, I’d sometimes wish I could have the time to be up on my feet and do some jogging or running around the park. Anyway, I’ve just read an article about running and it discussed that running without any shoes on, i.e. barefooted, is actually much better for the feet. Yup! The article says most runners with shoes land on their heels, this results to the weight not evenly distributed across the foot, thus causing stress injuries.

This reminds me of my sporty cousin who usually participates in marathons. I might as well convince her to be different and try running barefooted instead of wearing her trusted shoes. She usually rides her motorbike to work. Hmmm…can she run her way barefooted to work as well? LOL. Maybe, that would take her mind off from car insurance expenses or getting stuck in the traffic.
