Let Moderation Be Your Guide Beauty Health


Living in the Algarve, it’s sometimes hard to avoid having the odd drink or two, but, according to a recent survey by the British Department of Health, most of us don’t realise just how much alcohol we are actually consuming.

The survey of 1,429 drinkers in England found that more than a third of people do not know their recommended daily limit, which is, in fact, 2-3 units for women and 3-4 units for men. The survey coincided with a campaign by the government to increase alcohol awareness and to promote careful drinking.

Health Ministers are becoming increasingly concerned that people are unaware that increased glass sizes means that they are drinking a lot more than is recommended, and that also drinks are becoming stronger.

Over half of the people questioned -via the internet - Beauty Health believed that a large glass of wine equals two units of alcohol, when it actually equals three. The survey also discovered that those questioned were drinking at least two to three times a week.

In the Algarve, with such good wines available at such reasonable prices, most drinkers are probably consuming much more than that.

Beauty Health It can become increasingly confusing to know how much alcohol it is safe to consume. It seems that daily we are bombarded with information on how dangerous alcohol can be, yet the next day we are being told that one or two glasses a day is good for the heart or the blood. Well… Beauty Health is it good for us or not.

The key to healthy drinking seems to be with that one simple word… moderation. As with most things in life, we should not starve ourselves of what we fancy.

Danny Is Dogs' Best Friend And Lifesaver

Beauty Health A teen aiming to be a policeman may have a career as a police dog handler after saving five pups dumped in a Te Puke stream.


Danny Steer, 17, has been credited with saving the lives of at least two of the blue heeler-cross puppies, which he found yelping in Ohineangaanga Stream in the Bay of Plenty town on Monday.

The Te Puke High School year 12 pupil had finished a five-hour shift at Bayliss Packhouse just after 11pm when he heard the dogs.

"I ran over and saw these three puppies half out of the water," he said. "I pulled them out and put them on the grass and then saw two more trying to climb out."

Danny grabbed the two pups, which were "really frightened, and shivering because they were cold and wet".

He rang police, who arrived 40 minutes later and put the pups into a box to take to the SPCA.

"I was a bit worried about ringing the police because I didn't know if it was a real emergency."

He was not sure how long the two- to three-month-old pups had been in the water.

"I walked past the stream on the way to work around 5pm and they weren't there then, so whoever dumped them must have done it between 6 and 11pm.

"It's absolutely terrible for someone to do that to animals. Beauty Health It's really sad that they want to get rid of pups like that."

Danny said he would like to keep one of the pups, but that might be a problem.

"I have two cats so it may not work out and I live with my parents in a rented house, so the landlord might not approve."

The pups will be put up for adoption by the Tauranga SPCA if the owner has not claimed them within seven days.

Tauranga SPCA centre manager Matt Franklin said the pups were in reasonable health, though one had an injured hind leg.

"Danny did well to save them. Two of the pups in the water would have come a bit unstuck. He obviously cares for animals," Mr Franklin said, adding that the SPCA had clues to who the owner was. "It's a serious offence under the Animal Welfare Act to abandon animals and carries a fine of $25,000 or six months' jail."

Hospitals coping without striking doctors

Hospitals say they are coping well despite the loss of more than 2000 junior doctors who walked off the job for 48 hours yesterday.

Health Minister David Cunliffe said contingency plans were working and there were no patient safety problems, even though the hospitals were about 90 per cent full Beauty Health.

Hospitals prepare for the staff shortage by postponing thousands of surgical operations and discharging all patients who were able to go home.

Many hospitals had also taken out advertisements urging people to go to their GP rather than turning up to the emergency department if they did not have a real emergency.

The junior doctors say they want a 30 per cent pay rise over the next three years but their District Health Board (DHB) employers say the demands cannot be met.

The doctors say a base rate of $23 an hour is way too low for the job they do, while DHBs say it equates to a very adequate average annual wage well in excess of $80,000.

Yesterday the doctors' union New Zealand Resident Doctors Association (NZRDA) announced further strike action would follow, with doctors walking off the job again for two days on May 7.

The announcement was criticised by the senior doctors' union, the Association of Salaried Medical Specialists, who are due to ratify their own pay deal with the DHBs on May 8.

Union president Jeff Brown told The Dominion Post the timing of the junior doctors' second strike "may make it incredibly difficult to have that meeting".

Dr Brown said it would not be easy to postpone the meeting as it had come at the end of a two-year negotiation process.

He said they had been open about the date of the meeting and he could not understand why his colleagues chose it Beauty Health.

"I would hate to think it's a deliberate thing."

Marcia Walker from the NZRDA said the doctors were angry at the lack of headway being made in negotiations and their aggressive stance appeared to be the only way to tackle the situation.

"Our patients are being negatively affected now and the situation is getting worse by the day, so we can't really wait any longer, we need to get some action happening now," Ms Walker said.

"We've been in negotiations for nearly 12 months now with absolutely no movement and we just can't let it slip any longer."

DHBs spokesman David Meates said the threat of more strikes "beggared belief".

"This union should be more concerned about finding a way to solve the dispute rather than trying to prolong it."

Meanwhile, hospitals in Southland, Palmerston North, Wanganui and Waitemata have denied they are in danger of closing because of the staff shortages.

NZRDA general secretary Deborah Powell said the pay rise was needed to stem staff shortages which threatened to close regional hospitals, many of which had one junior doctor doing the work of five.

Senior clinicians at Palmerston North and Southland hospitals said while there could be problems getting staff at times, there was no truth in the statement that the hospitals were in danger of closure.

National leader John Key told Breakfast TV that junior doctors should not be given a 30 per cent pay rise but they had to get a "better deal" because New Zealand could not afford to keep losing them to Australia and the rest of the world.

Asked whether junior doctors should get a 30 to 40 per cent hike, he said "no".

Doctors earned "quite a lot" and whether they earned enough to keep them in New Zealand was a different story but under National's tax cut plan, they would "do pretty well", Mr Key said.

Aging population puts burden on ailing health care system

A private forum held Tuesday morning at Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital in Newport focused on a very public concern: the nation's ailing health care system and how to remedy it.

U.S. Sen. Gordon Smith checked into the hospital for a 40-minute informal exchange of ideas about rural health care issues with Samaritan administrators, board and foundation members, and representatives from other health-related organizations in Lincoln County. "If you don't have health care, you don't have quality of life," said Smith, succinctly summarizing a main concern echoed by most of the folks gathered in the hospital's education conference room. Health care, he added, is necessary "to keep body and soul together.'

Dona Lethbridge RN, director of Oregon Coast Community College's (OCCC) fledgling nursing program, led off the forum with an overview of the program and the need for it on the central Oregon coast.
The two-year program leads to an Associate of Applied Science Degree in nursing. Students who successfully complete the first year are eligible to take the standardized National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) to become a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN). Those who successfully complete both years can take the NCLEX, which the Oregon State Board of Nursing uses "to determine whether or not a candidate is prepared for entry-level nursing practice." Graduates who pass the exam are licensed as Registered Nurses (RNs).

The first OCCC class is set to graduate in June. The local need for nurses, said Lethbridge, is acute.

"Lincoln County is economically disadvantaged, and with our elderly demographics, we have many health problems to deal with," she noted.

The nursing pool itself is aging. About 75 to 80 percent of practicing nurses are 55 or older, and Lethbridge said most of them commonly retire at age 54. That fact underscores the growing health care crisis across a nation with an aging population.

Community support is abundant, and OCCC has forged a clinical partnership with the hospital. Financially, though, Lethbridge said it's been a struggle, both individually for the program participants and for the program itself, which currently operates out of an old beauty school building. While OCCC is on the verge of constructing a new facility, state and federal funding for education-related endeavors is always at a premium, often becoming as scarce as qualified nurses and other health care professionals in rural areas.

Pacific Communities Hospital chief administrator David Bigelow said the partnership with OCCC is one they sought, and have since valued and nurtured. The main reason is the difficulty they face enticing qualified health professionals - nurses, doctors, pharmacists, physical therapists, and others - to set up practice in rural areas.

"We're reaching out to education institutions to support the kind of grow-your-own methodology of building a workforce," he said.

Such partnerships still require sources of funding at the local, state, and federal levels, and long-time legislators like Smith can step in and help provide some salve to ease the financial pain, sometimes by earmarking funds for specific purposes,health clubv including education and recruitment programs. Smith referred to working with New York senator and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to obtain authorization for a bill that provides funding for, among other things, nursing programs like the one at OCCC.

"America as a society is aging, and most health care dollars are spent when we're older," Smith noted.

Those demographics, combined with shrinking resources, will make health care "one of those issues that will come into sharper and sharper focus until we reach a resolution," he said. Smith opposes President George W. Bush's proposal for Medicare reductions, noting they must keep the program "afloat and healthy to keep people healthy."

Those words provided a dose of comfort to Bigelow Beauty Health, who had Medicare and Medicaid high on his list of concerns.

But the overarching issue for him is health care reform, revamping a skewed system that leaves too many folks without health care. "Our system based on entitlement is imbalanced and unfair," Bigelow declared, referring to the American system based on ability to pay. "You're entitled only if you're old enough, poor enough, or work for the right employer. That has to change."

Smith agreed, but cautioned that government should not become the health care provider, instead working to make it affordable and accessible for everyone. "There are many different ideas on how best to accomplish this," he added health club, referring specifically to the Healthy Americans Act put forth by U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and proposals by former Oregon governor John Kitzhaber.

The complexity of the issue prevents it from ever being resolved to everyone's satisfaction, Smith said, noting that all health care is rationed since demand always exceeds supply. With the Oregon Health Plan, the rationing takes place up front. Those covered by the state plan know what they can and can't have in terms of medical procedures from the get-go.

"There is a growing recognition that we need to provide the mechanism for access to health care, with a certain minimum," Smith said, noting that health care is the nation's most urgent domestic issue, one that will only become more prominent until it's resolved.

"However, if health care is a right, it's also responsibility," he concluded. "We all have to be engaged in a responsible way Beauty Health."

Forever Young's kitchen raids for beauty aids


CHANCES are your kitchen is not the first place you turn for beauty products or for tips to enhance your looks. Beauty Health But for entrepreneur Elaine Hayden, the food items in her kitchen have blossomed into a natural ingredient beauty care business.

"I started out making natural products at home for my daughter who could not use regular lotions and shampoos. She had extreme allergies and eczema health club. I would give some to my friends and family and eventually I decided to make it a business," said Hayden, who will be talking about home- made beauty aids at the Forever Young: A Health, Nutrition and Rejuvenation Expo being held at the Jamaica Pegasus hotel on March 29 and 30.

Her presentation will focus on masks for normal, dry and oily skins and will provide a hands-on experience for attendees. Volunteers will mix the 'preparations' and apply to other volunteers from the audience. At the expo, she will also be displaying her line of products including lotions, shampoos, body butters and shower gels. "Most of my products are 98 - 100 per cent natural," said Hayden, who still comes up with many of her creations while working in her kitchen.

She says that strawberry or any fruit with antioxidant properties is good for use on the face, cautioning that the fruit should be applied to a small section of the skin to see whether there are any allergies before general use.
Cucumbers are good for reducing puffiness around the eyes. Teabags are also a good alternative, she added.

As well as picking up some good tips about at-home beauty aids, Forever Young attendees will also learn how to feed their sex drives from Dr Heather Little-White, a nutritionist who last year delighted her audience with her presentation on how to be Fifty, Sixty, Healthy and Sexy. Forever Young offers its audience some 10 seminars in health, nutrition and rejuvenation matters each year.

Some of Hayden's top recommendations are:
1.Oatmeal and Honey facial - grind the oatmeal to the consistency that you desire. Heat the honey to get it a little thinner. Combine both and apply to the face for 15 minuteshealth club. Rinse with warm water. This helps to give the skin a smooth tone and a radiant glow.

2. Cornmeal and coconut oil scrub - Beauty Health mix the cornmeal with the coconut oil (or avocado, soyabean, almond or any other essential oil that you have) and apply for 15 minutes. Use warm water to rinse and then apply a moisturiser. Cornmeal is known for its cleansing abilities while the coconut oil gives it a healthy glow.
3. Egg white and aloe vera facial - beat the egg whites, combine with the aloe vera and apply to face for 15 minutes. This is great for rejuvenating the skin. The egg whites can also be used without the aloe vera.

Researchers Study The Potential Health Benefits Of Ginger

With the increase in the popularity of alternative and natural health solutions, many of the time-honored medical traditions of the east, such as the use of ginger root, are exciting the interest of clinical researchers. Ginger has a long history of medicinal use, particularly in traditional Chinese medicine and the Ayurvedic healing traditions of India. In recent years, a great deal of clinical research has been done on the potential health benefits of ginger.

Used for thousands of years to ease digestive complaints and nausea, among numerous other ailments, ginger has attracted the attention of numerous researchers throughout the world - including those seeking a means of easing the side effects of some cancer and Hepatitis C treatments. The University of Michigan Cancer Center participated in a recent study, along with the National Institute for Cancer and the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine. This particular study, formally titled as a “Phase II Trial Of Encapsulized Ginger As A Treatment For Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting,” was a placebo control, double blind, and randomized.

Preliminary studies, according to the Maryland Medical Center, indicate that ginger may also benefit health by helping to lower cholesterol and serving to help prevent clotting of the blood. Studies have also indicated that, in a lab setting, “components in ginger may have anti-cancer activity.” These early study results do look promising, but further clinical research is needed to determine how ginger can be useful in helping to treat heart disease and certain types of cancer.

The American Cancer Society, while acknowledging the potential health benefits of ginger, advises those that are using blood thinning agents to be sure to consult with their health care provider before using ginger medicinally. That is because some clinical studies indicate that ginger can potentially act as a blood thinning agent. This could prolong bleeding by reducing blood clotting abilities when combined with standard blood thinning or clot prevention medicines. It is because of this that some health care professionals advise pregnant women, especially those with indications of placental or other types of bleeding, to avoid using ginger during their pregnancies.

Further clinical trials and other research will study the potentials that ginger has to benefit health. As with any supplement or alternative medicine option, it is always best to seek the advice of a health care professional, especially when taking other medications or undergoing treatment for serious health conditions.

The group’s pharmacy operation also performed well, with dispensing volumes up by 5.2%.

Local Woman Recipient Of Beauty Health

Meet Lori Roper, a 36-year-old nurse and single mother of three.

In many ways, Roper represents the everyday American woman, juggling the responsibilities of a full-time career with the never-ending demands of a busy family life. Roper, like so many others, spends much of her time doing for others and rarely doing anything for herself.

But there’s something different about Lori lately. The new year has brought her an opportunity to gain a new lease on life. Roper has been chosen to be the recipient of a new community project: “The Bartlesville Health & Beauty Makeover.”

The effort was initiated by local dentist Dr. Ron Hart who recruited a group of Bartlesville Health & Beauty professionals to donate their expertise to the project in the areas of fitness, nutrition, skin care, hair design and fashion. Together they comprise the “Bartlesville Health & Beauty Team.”

According to Hart, Roper was a great choice to help the group launch their inaugural makeover project.

“To showcase the talents that we have in Bartlesville, we thought it would be exciting to provide a makeover for a local individual,” Hart says. “It didn’t take long to find a deserving person. We selected Lori because of her potential and because she had unselfishly put others before herself.”

Beauty Health And Beauty Non Allergy Milk

ASK Shirley Buckley what her favourite animal is and she'll likely pick a goat over the more popular cat or dog. That's because as far as the 60-year-old is concerned the goat has helped dramatically improve her standard of life Beauty Health. Now, as a thank you, Shirley of Greetland, Halifax, is singing the goat's praises in a national publicity campaign to coincide with Food Intolerance Week which starts today and runs until Friday.

Food intolerance and food allergies are a growing concern in the UK with an estimated 20 to 30 per cent of UK adults and children now claiming to suffer from food sensitivity. The most common childhood food allergy Beauty Health, according to the experts, is an intolerance to cows milk, which contributes to conditions such as eczema and asthma.
Shirley who lives with husband Paul and has three children and four grandchildren, suffers from osteoarthritis and last year her daughter bought her a health book which recommended she remove diary products and other foods from her diet.She originally tried soya milk but couldn't stomach it so she switched to goats milk and contacted the UK's leader supplier of goats milk products, St Helen's Farm for a recipe book.

When the company discovered how goats milk had helped make a big difference to her health, they asked her to take part in a campaign called `Thank Goodness For Goats'. In addition to fronting the campaign, Shirley's story is feature on its website Beauty Health. According to St Helen's Farm 70-per-cent of adults and children who have opted for goats milk instead of traditional diary products, to combat health problems, have noticed an improvement to conditions such as eczema, asthma, arthritis, digestion problems and catarrh.

Shirley, who has osteoarthritis in her hips and spine says: "Cutting out diary products and using goats milk has made a huge difference. I can get around a lot easier and have less pain. I now use lots of products from the range and incorporate them into my favourite recipes Beauty Health."

Do sperm have health benefits

MEN, often in an attempt at being cunning, boast about how precious their ejaculate is, some even going to lengths to preach the health benefits of it.

Beauty Health And while it's universally agreed that without the 'precious' ejaculate procreation as we know it would end, more and more, women have taken these other messages as fact, advocating its use for everything from facials - it has been said to be effective in tightening the pores - to boosting the metabolism.

While many women use smarts to determine that this is just male tactics used to get them into bed, the issue has sparked enough debate to warrant answers from a gynaecologist. This week we put the questions to gynaecologist Dr Horace Fletcher.
Is semen a natural source of proteins, vitamins, minerals or the like?

Does semen help at all in any beauty regimen. "Semen is good for one thing and one thing only and that is to impregnate the woman. Beauty Health I will agree that the semen is made up of a lot of proteins but that is to nourish the sperm itself," Dr Fletcher said. "A woman would have to drink a glassful to get the protein from it. Where would she get that? A man's ejaculate amounts to about one teaspoon unless he had been deprived of sex for a long time."

That said,Beauty Health Dr Fletcher also quashed the idea that semen can remove acne and give clear healthy skin if used in facials. "Men probably say this because they want to dominate the woman but those things are not true," the doctor said
