Simple Rules For Personal Health And Hygiene

Personal Health
Have you been following a plan for your own personal hygiene, or do you get up in the morning, take a bath, brush and blow dry your hair, use the bathroom through the day, and go to bed at night? If you only do the latter, you need to put more planning and preparation into your personal care and grooming.

Problems such as dandruff are forgivable, but good looks are usually the result of great care and attention…

Does Health Really Matter If You’re Fit?

Fitness
Surprisingly, if you're anything like me, you really don't know. Why not? Well, it's likely because we get so caught up in trying to build the perfect body, we forget to measure our health.

Natural Therapy
While there are many common pharmaceutical treatments for high blood pressure including beta blockers and A.C.E. inhibitors there are some very effective alternatives including pomegranate juice, passion flower and physical exercise. There is evidence that pomegranate juice offers protection against cardiovascular disease.

It also kills beneficial bacteria and lowers the vitamin content of your milk. A better alternative? Raw milk is milk that hasn’t been pasteurized. Why raw milk?
