Lasting Eyes?




Have you thought about supplementing specifically for the eyes? I have had years of constant eye problems until I chose to increase some additional nutrients that could be helpful. Some of these were a good source of antioxidants and are great for your skin and over all health. Having a hard time getting your antioxidants from foods. Here are some great supplements.


Bilberry
Acetyl-L-Carnitine - I had never used this in the past & purchased for fat loss. Wow great overall benefits
CoQ10 or Ubiquinol - Another great item I added to my list of supplements. This is also great topically and is in some professional skincare products.
Ginkgo Biloba
Lutein
Zeaxanthin or Asthaxanthin
Zinc
Carotenoids - These are great for everything.
Berry Extracts
E,C, Selenium, Zinc
Lets not forget our Omega-3 fatty so many benefits for the whole body
All of these are great and have benefits for the whole body. We don’t have sunscreen for the eye but we can block it with a fabulous pair of sunglasses. Just like your topical sun protection ensure your sunglasses block UVA & UVB Rays.

Does Milk Cause Acne?


Milk doesn't necessarily cause acne, but can contribute to it in those that are prone to acne.  It tends to be the first question asked depending on the type of acne.

Milk contains a protein called Casein that causes similar effects as gluten.  These cause inflammation in the body. Plus many people can’t digest them.  Not to mention the amount of hormones that are in regular milk.  If your acne is hormonal to begin with this doesn‘t help at all.  It also seems many people that drink milk and have acne, tend to drink milk very often.  There are various flora and bacteria in the body and an overgrowth will show up on the skin as inflammation or bacterial.

Not all acne is created equal.  So it may not be from what you are ingesting, but from what your not ingesting.  For example green foods, and other vegetables plus water.  If your acne shows signs that it may be caused by something you are ingesting, it would help to test your skin and do a temporary switch.  Some alternate options are Almond Milk - I prefer Blue Diamond, unsweetened vanilla or Rice Milk.  There are a few others I have never tried like Hemp and Hazelnut.  See your professional there are usually signs and symptoms that show that will trigger them asking "Do you drink milk often?"
