Winter Hand Healing Tips

Try these simple tips to keep your hands looking down-right gorgeous year round!

1. Hydrate as you Lather. Washing often with antibacterial sanitizers that contain alcohol can dry out hands. In fact, even with soap, they can lose about 25% of their natural moisture with every rinse. To renew the suppleness of skin, use a milky, sulfate free soap instead or lock in moisture with a petrolatum rich lotion.

2. Cuticle Softness is Key. Heal ragged hangnails by massaging them with an oil based cream at morning and night to repair damage from dehydrating polish changes, filing and buffing. to neaten cuticles, gently push them back with an orangewood stick about once a week. trim away any stubborn remainders with a small nail clipper.

3. Bolster Nail Strength. Avoid polishes that have toluene, formaldehyde and dibutyl phthalate, which weaken nails. And take a mini vacay from lacquer about one week out of every month. by doing so, you will help restore moisture and help keep your nails strong and healthy.

4. Even Out Skin Tone. After years and years of sun exposure, your skin can show visible signs of skin damage all over your body, including brown sun spots on your hands. To prevent them, apply an spf 30 or higher sunscreen on daily. If you already see damage then apply a product with exfoliating glycolic acid for smooth, flawless hands in no time flat!

Reconsider Daily Aspirin Use

For most people a daily aspirin can clearly benefit people who have already had a heart attack or a stroke due to a blocked artery. But why shouldn’t everybody take a daily aspirin?

The problem is that even small doses of aspirin doubles the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.  It also increases the risk of a life-threatening hemorrhagic stroke from bleeding into the brain. So, the decision on whether a person with no evidence of heart disease should take regular aspirin daily depends upon the balance between the risk of bleeding and the likelihood of cardiovascular benefit.

In March of 2009, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force published their recommendations regarding aspirin use based on a review of research trials. These trials showed that aspirin reduced the risk of heart attacks in men with no symptoms of coronary heart disease (CHD) by about a third.  However, aspirin had no effect on the risk of heart attacks in similarly healthy women.

Given this new data, the Task Force made the following recommendations for men and women with no known CHD:

• Men less than age 45 should not take regular aspirin to prevent a heart attack or stroke.
• Women younger than 55 should not take aspirin to prevent a heart attack or stroke.
• Men between ages 45 and 79 should consider daily aspirin if the likelihood of lowering the risk of a heart attack exceeds the risk of bleeding.
• Women between ages 55 and 79 should not take aspirin to reduce their risk of a heart attack, but may consider using aspirin to lower their risk of stroke if this benefit outweighs the danger of possible bleeding.
• For men and women older than 80 there is insufficient evidence for or against the use of aspirin.

Please note that aspirin lowered the number of heart attacks and strokes but did not reduce either the number of deaths from these cardiovascular events or from all causes.

Natural Tips for Gray Hair

Scientists have noticed that the condition of your hair actually reveals a lot about the level of stress in your life over time. Chinese medicine often attributes many hair issues to a decline in your vital essence, brought on by stress, overwork, physical and emotional strain, and unhealthy lifestyle, as well as too much alcohol.  While stress reduction is at the forefront of most peoples minds, what else can you do if your hair woes are already showing?

Gray Hair:

Eat healthier for hair health – Black sesame seeds, black beans, and walnuts help reverse graying. For health and shiny hair, try eating foods everyday that are rich in essential fatty acids and omega-rich nutrients such as flaxseed oil, sesame oil, olive oil, virgin coconut oil, avocado, beans, nuts and seeds.

Color your hair naturally – If you want to dye your hair, use natural colorants such as henna. These natural shades can be used by both light and dark hair colors to help dye and cover unwanted gray hair.

Hair Loss:

Hair growth is affected by the hormonal system. It is quite normal to lose around 100 hairs every day, which are then replaced just days after. However, with age hormone levels fluctuate and start to often decline. This reduces the stimulus to the hair follicles, resulting in hair loss.

Ginger juice helps hair loss – Massage your scalp with fresh ginger juice. This will help stimulate the hair follicles on the affected part of your scalp and help stimulate healthy hair growth.

Scalp Issues/Dandruff:

It is normal for everyone to have some degree of dandruff on any given day. Your scalp undergoes regular regeneration and dead skin is shed to allow new skin growth. The flaking associated with dandruff can become worse when hormonal imbalances, stress, and improper diet come into play. Dandruff is at its worst during winter and fall when the air tends to be dry.

Apply aloe vera juice – Squeeze some aloe juice directly from the stem of the plant and massage into the scalp once a day, preferably before bedtime, for an entire month to help reduce dandruff or itchy scalp.

Baking soda head scrub – In the shower, wet your hands and scrub baking soda vigorously into your scalp.

Soak your scalp in green tea – Prepare a mild green tea and soak your scalp in it for 10-15 minutes, shampooing it out with olive oil, avocado oil or a hypoallergenic shampoo.

Find your own natural way to prevent gray hair, hair loss and scalp problems effectively. Reduce your stress, live a healthier lifestyle and try to go natural to nourish your hair back to health.

Supported Testing to be done on Studies of Testosterone Therapy in Older Men

Low serum testosterone may contribute to a number of problems affecting older men, indluding decreased ability to walk, loss of muscle mass and strength, decreased vitality, decreased sexual function, impaired cognition, cardiovascular disease and anemia. While testosterone normally decreases with age, in some men, low levels of testosterone may contribute to these debilitating conditions. A new national clinical trial will test whether these conditions can be favorably affected by testosterone therapy.

Researchers know that as men age, a significant proportion are unable to carry out activities of daily living and experience descreased physical and cognitive function and decreased independence. It is still being tested to see the extent to which low levels of testosterone may contribute to these conditions. The studies are aiming to answer certain questions by testing the effectiveness of testosterone therapy in older men with low testosterone levels and one one of the following conditions: impaired walking, low vitality, sexual or cognitive dysfunction. A key consideration is the use of testosterone as a therapy for certain conditions, rather than a preventive measure.  Researchers consider this study to be highly important because testosterone products have been marketed for several years as treatments of a variety of conditions. They also hope that this study will estabilish whether testosterone therapy results in clear benefits for older men.
