Your Skin and Mud

Now, what I’m about to tell you is not groundbreaking but mud can be your skin’s best friend. Yes, there are plenty of mud masks on the market, but there is no greater mud than the mud from the Dead Sea. If you haven’t heard about the Dead Sea, all you need to know is that it’s a very salty body of water in Israel that has healing properties. It can help most skin disorders.

It can treat blackheads, pimples, vitiligo, rosacea, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, and acne. Don’t believe me? Spend one morning sitting by the dead sea covered in the mud, you’ll quickly change your mind. The mud masks that are typically found in drug stores and cosmetic stores are artificial. The mud that comes from the Dead Sea contains minerals, salts, and antioxidants.

Since it’s from the Dead Sea, you can bet it gets rid of all your dead skin cells. This helps make your skin glow and look all around beautiful. Over time, our skin absorbs a lot of dirt, oils, and terrible toxins from the air. It’s not always easy to remove these toxins, but Dead Sea mud has the ability to do that. The minerals that are found in the mud are silicon dioxide, aluminum, sulfur, titanium, phosphorus pentoxide, bromide, chloride, calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, and sodium.

You may think that your problems are solved after cleaning out your pores but now your pores are exposed and vulnerable. Dead sea mud doesn’t just clean out your pores, it also minimizes them. It increases skin’s elasticity and hydration. The mud can be used on your entire body. It doesn’t only need to be used as a mask. It can be an ingredient in shaving cream, face wash, shampoo. When used in shampoo, dead sea mud may be able to slow down the loss of hair.

One of the cooler things about this mud is its ability to combat cellulite. It’s able to do this by improving your metabolism and circulation. Cellulite is caused by our body fluids that accumulate in our tissue. Rubbing dead sea mud directly onto your cellulite will work like magic! The same goes for stretch marks. Stretch marks are normal and happen to everyone so you shouldn’t be ashamed of them but if you want to make them less noticeable, dead sea mud is the answer.

Dead Sea Mud can also reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, so while everyone’s age is showing, you can hide your age with mud from the dead sea. Your skin will look as smooth as a baby’s bottom. While you’re smoothing out your skin, the mud will also balance out your pH levels. Balanced pH levels reduce the risk of diseases and keep all the bad toxins out.

If you ever get your hands on some Dead Sea mud or get a chance to go there, take advantage of it. The mud is priceless. You’ll never want to live without it once you’ve tried it.

Health Benefits of Blueberries

With so many people looking for ways to hype up their diet and give their bodies the true nourishment they deserve, berries have turned into somewhat of a superfood – and for good reason too. Let’s take a closer look at why berries are alongside some of the healthiest foods that you can eat.

Antioxidant-rich

Berries are significantly high in antioxidants which partly contribute to their superfood status. Antioxidants work to keep free radicals under control, which are the molecules that contribute to cell damage. Not only are antioxidants good for your skin health but they can also help to mitigate your risk of a wide array of diseases. Numerous studies have repealed that berries work to reduce oxidative stress thanks to their antioxidant content.

High in Fiber

Berries are a good source of fiber which is crucial for digestive health. Beyond their digestive benefits, they also help to control weight as they reduce hunger and increase feelings of satiation. So, if you feel full for longer, you’re likely to eat less. And your digestive system gets healthier – so it’s a win-win for weight loss.

Provide Nutrients 

Berries are not only rich in antioxidants. They also provide your body with a multitude of vitamins and minerals that are essential for overall health. Specifically, berries are rich in vitamin C and manganese which are both essential nutrients necessary for optimal body functioning. If you’re looking for a fun and easy way to get more vitamins and minerals in your diet, berries could be your way forward!

Fight Inflammation

An alarming number of health issues stem from the underlying issue of inflammation in the body. With this in mind, increasing your intake of anti-inflammatory foods in your diet can be beneficial for many. Berries contain powerful anti-inflammatory properties that reduce your risk of diabetes, obesity, and heart disease. They help to decrease certain inflammatory markers.

Skin Health

One of the key components of skin health is an intake of antioxidants. This combined with the aforementioned benefits of berries, including fighting inflammation and high vitamin C content, makes it a powerful food to ensure your skin is healthy and youthful. Many people turn to conventional treatments or makeup to ensure that their skin looks good, but the truth is that increasing your intake of berries could also help! Changing your diet can often be the first step to better skin health.

So, these are just a snapshot of some of the many health benefits of berries. If you ask me, one of the best things about berries is that they’re delicious and easy to incorporate into your summer diet. Besides the health benefits above, eating seasonal fruits can also help the environment. A food that helps both my body and the environment is definitely one to put on the list. The bottom line is that you can definitely put me down for adding some more berries into my diet!

SAD

If you are experiencing symptoms of depression during this time of the year, the long winter months, know that you are not alone. During this period many people have trouble, and there is even a name for this type of thing. It is called seasonal affect disorder, or SAD (pretty fitting, no?) for short. When you’ve got SAD, you’re likely to feel sad. But it’s not just a basic sadness. The sadness can be unprompted by other things and events occurring in your life. You might not understand why suddenly you are feeling this way and having these thoughts. Well, what’s going on is that your body is having a hard time adjusting to the lack of sunlight that it is so used to getting during the summer and springtime. The sunlight makes us happy, putting us in a better mood and lifting our spirits. Conversely, when we have a lack of sun we feel sad and depressed. We might have a lack of appetite or eat too much. We might have trouble falling asleep, or the very opposite problem of having trouble getting out of bed. You might experience mood swings. Your condition might also impact your daily level of functioning. It’s especially concerning if someone you know is suffering from SAD and is having trouble making it to work, taking care of family responsibilities, caring for themselves, etc.

So, can anything be done about SAD? Well, the good thing about it is that it is usually temporary. Oftentimes it will slowly disappear as the winter fades and the spring begins. However, you probably don’t want to wait that long to start getting better. So, there are a few things you can try to speed up the recovery process. Firstly, you can get a special lamp which you can sit in front of for a specific amount of time each day. This light mimics natural sunlight, tricking your body into thinking that it’s no longer winter. The truth is, this is one of the most recommended treatment options for SAD patients and it really does help. But there are other tools to use in unison with this. First, do not underestimate the power of friendship. Having someone to lean on and support you in your time of need can go a long way. So rather than isolating yourself during this difficult period, reach out to people who will be there for you when the rain starts to pour. Also consider talk therapy. Having a designated place to get out some of your feelings can make all the difference while you’re trying to feel better. And don’t forget to care for yourself. While it’s easy to forget about showering or eating when you’re in a depression, doing this is counterproductive to your overall health. So give yourself that extra push to really care about yourself, even when it’s hardest to do.
