At some point in their lives every woman envisionsrepparttar quintessential beauty enhancers ---clear skin and an attractive body. Unfortunately nature did not equip all of us with this envious duo, so we're left to create our own destiny. Not surprisingly, that is easier said than done.

But before you go out and purchaserepparttar 115077 latest diet pills, or spend $50 on a regime that promises a flawless complexion but delivers more blotches instead, readrepparttar 115078 following article which promises clearer skin and a weight loss of 8-12 pounds in 30 days if followed fastidiously.

Mirror, Mirror On The Wall

Clear skin is defined as a flawless complexion void of marks, blemishes and other defects. According to dermatologists, all of us have it at some point in our lives. Then adolescence sets in, and our skin turns into Frankenstein on steroids.

But like other quirks of nature, our skin enters a new phase as we reach our 20s. The oil glands become less active and once again we experiencerepparttar 115079 joys of a clear complexion. But despite this transition, some women still find themselves stuck with skin that is not to their liking.

Beautiful skin begins onrepparttar 115080 inside, and is wholly dependant onrepparttar 115081 foods you eat. A diet high in fruit, vegetables and chicken will result in a complexion with few problems. While a diet high in fried, sugary and greasy food will producerepparttar 115082 opposite effect.

This formula which I have used for 20 years will work, if followed thoroughly. Any attempt to deviate, will not producerepparttar 115083 desired results. And to reiterate,repparttar 115084 key to this recipe, is FOLLOWING THE REGIME FOR 30 DAYS.

The Tibetan and Chinese health Secret: If you read one health report a year, this should be it!

Written by Paul Brelin


It seems as ifrepparttar health of America is failing. One million Americans will die of circulatory disease this year. Six hundred thousand lives will be cut short by cancer as well. How did we get in such a mess? I’m not sure. But there is a way out that is starting to generate a real buzz! Since CNN andrepparttar 115076 gang won’t talk about it I decided to write is article.

Dear readers, I want to introduce you torepparttar 115077 most nutrient dense food onrepparttar 115078 earth; wolfberries, or more specifically Lycium Barbarum.

The western scientific community have verified what Chinese and Tibetan health practitioners have known for thousands of years. Wolfberries arerepparttar 115079 healthiest known food on our planet.

In this report I will be talking specifically about wolfberries. In my research onrepparttar 115080 subject I found that not all wolfberries are created equal. The three most potent berries inrepparttar 115081 wolfberry family are Tibetan Goji berries, Chinese Xinjiang wolfberries and Chinese Ningxia wolfberries which all belong torepparttar 115082 Lycium genus.

Wolfberries, a national treasure in China, have been used in traditional Chinese folk medicine for over 5,000 years. Ancient Chinese medical texts celebrated wolfberries for their wide range of health benefits including strengtheningrepparttar 115083 ‘chi” or life force ofrepparttar 115084 body. The people who consumed this fruit apparently lived free of common diseases like arthritis, cancer and diabetes. Moreover, their life expectancy has reached over 100 years!

In 1988,repparttar 115085 Beijing Nutrition Research Institute conducted detailed chemical analysis and nutritional composition studies ofrepparttar 115086 dried wolfberry fruit. Hold on to your socks, this is what they discovered.

In addition to being packed with vitamins B1 and B6 (which is needed byrepparttar 115087 body to convert food into energy), and vitamin E (which has never been found in fruit before), wolfberries contain more protein then whole wheat, 18 amino acids (8 of them essential for life), 21 trace minerals (including significant amounts of zinc, iron, copper, calcium, selenium, phosphorus and germanium; a very rare anti-cancer agent almost never found in food), more beta carotene than carrots, 500 times more vitamin C by weight than oranges, essential fatty acids (required forrepparttar 115088 production of hormones and smooth functioning ofrepparttar 115089 brain and nervous system) and isrepparttar 115090 richest source of carotenoids (natural fat-soluble pigments that play a critical role in vitamin A activity in humans) of any food onrepparttar 115091 planet.

That’s not all.

Here is a short list of other health promoting compounds found in Lycium Barbarum:

Beta Sitosterol: An anti-inflammatory agent found to lower cholesterol, and used to treat sexual impotence and prostrate enlargement.

Zeaxanthin and Lutine: Valued for their role in protectingrepparttar 115092 eyes.

Betaine: Used byrepparttar 115093 liver to produce Choline which assists detoxification reactions inrepparttar 115094 liver. Betaine is known to protect DNA, enhance memory, promote muscle growth and protects us from fatty liver disease.

Cyperone: A sesquiterpene used in treatment of cervical cancer. It is also known to benefit heart and blood pressure problems as well as menstruation problems.

Solavetivone: A powerful anti-fungal and anti-bacterial agent.

Physalin: A natural compound that boostsrepparttar 115095 immune system. Found to be effective in treating leukaemia, hepatitis B and cancer.

A laboratory procedure was recently developed to measurerepparttar 115096 amount of antioxidantsrepparttar 115097 foods we eat contain. The procedure known as ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) was developed by Dr. Guohua Cao at USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University, USA. ORAC is one ofrepparttar 115098 most sensitive and reliable methods for measuringrepparttar 115099 ability of antioxidants to absorb free radicals. It isrepparttar 115100 only test to combine both time and degree of inhibition of free radicals.
