Even more reason to reduce your sugar intake.
Healthy Tip of the Day! - Salt gets all the bad rap. But sugar makes a bigger dent in blood pressure and high blood sugar counts. Eating less dessert and drinking less sweetened drinks can cut your blood pressure up to 70% in 3 months.

Skin Detox!
A healthy lymphatic system helps carry away waste in the skin and deliver nutrients. The minerals that one needs for a healthy, functioning lymphatic system are electrolytes! Calcium, magnesium, potassium and phosphate all help your body regulate the lymphatic system, which is the key to good health all over.
The lymphatic system regulates how puffy you are, it regulates how clean the skin is, and determines if you have a beautiful glow or dull, lifeless skin.
Eating a balanced diet year round feeds the body these essential minerals, but in summer, when you are sweating more, you are going to have to seek additional electrolyte supplementation.
Letting these minerals deplete is a huge mistake- your body will slowly shut down- you will feel tired, stressed, you will have break outs, you will feel bloated and you won't be able to work out to your fullest.
The solution is to seek out one coconut water a day to help get you back on track.
And visit The Bathery for a Manual Lymph Drainage session if you need a little extra help. You'll be glad you did.

Can't give up soda? Go healthy!
Hooked on soda pop? We know how bad it is, esp. the diet versions w/yucky aspartame. Can't kick the habit? Try changing the product. There are several easily-available, healthier alternatives to choose from.
Switching from cola, or Mt. Dew drinks, to Ginger Ales & Root Beers, is even more beneficial. The healthy alternatives use REAL ginger & herbs in their bevvies. The real stuff has actual beneficial properties.

Essential Fatty Acids
Essential Fatty Acids are the building blocks of our bodies’ fats and membranes. They were originally known as Vitamin F.
Your body cannot manufacture EFA’s on its own so they must be gotten from your diet and/or from supplements. Good dietary sources of EFA’s are fresh wild salmon, sardines, and walnuts. Eat them twice a week. Try adding ground flax seeds to your salads. Supplemental sources are fish oil, cod liver oil, salmon oil, and flax oil. Take 2 tbsp. daily.
EFA’s help reduce inflammation, improve eczema and psoriasis, ease depression and anxiety, keep us hydrated and supple, and make our skin youthful and glowing!
Lack of Essential Fatty Acids results in EFAD – Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency.
EFAD can cause several problems with your skin, most notably, excess keratinization or a build up of dead skin cells which causes your skin to look dull and flakey. Micro-comedones and hyperpigmentation can also result from EFAD.
Lack of essential fatty acids in your skin increases the amount of water that evaporates from your skin (trans-epidermal water loss – TEWL). Increased TEWL results in less water in the skin which impairs the enzyme activity needed to desquamate or exfoliate dead skin cells. And impaired desquamation means more dead skin cells stuck to the outer epidermal layer (keratinization), as well as dead skin cells getting stuck in the pores and follicles causing micro-comedones.
EFA’s contain Omega 3 which helps restore collagen and elastin in the dermis, and Omega 6 which helps restore parts of the epidermis.

Aging is Cellular - and we don't mean from your phone!
It is now known through direct clinical examination that the key to longevity, youth and health is found at the cellular level. Cellular research has demonstrated that aging is more than skin deep, it involves internal, external, and emotional factors.
So, eat well, live well, and be well.
