diets for quick weight loss


Obesity is a growing problem in the United States. Two-thirds of Americans are either obese or overweight. Obesity is the number one health problem in America. The truth of the matter is it is very preventable with the right diet and regular exercise. Dropping weight can do wonders for you appearance and overall health. Let’s take a look at some diets for quick weight loss.

When you want to lose weight fast, you must create a large calorie deficit. You can do this by cutting back calories, burning calories through exercise, or both. One things diets for quick weight loss will have in common is that they will greatly restrict your calories. There are 3500 calories in a pound of fat. Most diets reduce your calories by about 500. This causes a theoretical weight loss of a pound a week. With diets for quick weight loss you may find you calories reduced to 1000 a day total or even less than that. This should cause weight loss of around 3 pounds a week.

Perhaps one of the best diets for quick weight loss would be a low-carb diet. In this diet you restrict carbohydrates to 50 grams a day or lower. You also reduce overall calories by as much as 1000 a day. By restricting carbohydrates you can control insulin. Insulin is a hormone that promotes fat gain and hinders fat loss. Lowering carb intake also will help you to shed water weight. You will feel less bloated.

When using low-carb diets for quick weight loss you will find you have a very fast initial weight loss. Some people report a weight loss of 10 pounds in the first few days. That is mostly water weight but it does a lot for appearance and motivation. For best results carbohydrates should be consumed by 6:00pm. Only one carbohydrate meal is needed and it should consist of complex carbohydrates.

Another one of the diets for quick weight loss is a crash diet where you basically just cut calories down to 1000 or below while paying no attention to the macronutrients. In this type of diet overall calories are more of a concern instead of carb or fat control. The thinking is that by severely cutting the calories, quick weight loss will follow. Though this method doesn’t produce the results of a low-carb, calorie-reduced diet, it can take off the weight quickly.

Diets for quick weight loss can have their results accelerated with exercise. By both reducing calories in dietary intake and burning them through exercise, you attack your weight problem two ways. This leads to even quicker results than dieting alone.

Dermal Fillers – Are They Really Effective?


Dermal fillers are substances used to restore volume, giving a more beautiful youthful appearance to the face. The dermal fillers are widely used to restore facial contours, reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, creases, to plump thin lips and to enhance hollow contours. What dermal filler can do is depending on the type of the used filler and the state of the skin.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF DERMAL FILLERS?
  • Restore volume and fullness in the face
  • Soften and restore facial lines
  • Reduce and improve the appearance of fine lines, creases and recessed scars
  • Enhance lip fullness
  • Add volume to the skin creating youthful appearance
  • Remove frown lines between the eyes
  • Treat and fill acne scars
  • Reduce crows? feet and wrinkles around the nose and mouth
  • Plump out hollow cheeks
  • Reshape nose tip or chin
  • Add shape and contour to the face
  • Replace soft tissue volume loss
WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF DERMAL FILLERS ?
As the dermal fillers have the property to return the dermis to its original youthful state, nowadays they are very popular amongst those women who want to stop the aging process and to remove the signs of aging. There are many types of fillers that restore and reshape the obvious signs of facial aging, delivering long lasting results. Today there are many types of dermal fillers, some based on natural substances derived from the human body, others are synthetic forms of these substances and some may contain synthetic, biocompatible compounds.

The dermal fillers can be divided into three main categories:
1 collagen based fillers
2 hyaluronic acid based fillers
3 calcium hydroxyl apetite fillers

Depending on the period of time the filler will be effective the fillers can be divided to:
  • 1 temporary fillers that substitute the natural tissues - they last for a period between 3 and 9 months
  • 2 temporary fillers that stimulate the formation of new tissues - they can last up to 1 year
  • 3 permanent fillers – most of the permanent fillers contain non-biodegradable particles which usually stay constantly in the injected place.
Hyaluronic acid -? It’s a natural substance found in the human body. Hyaluronic acid plays an important role in the way your skin looks, feels, and functions. Hyaluronic acid creates volume in the face, giving it a healthy, youthful appearance. Hyaluronic acid injections work by filling the space between collagen and elastin fibers within the skin, which replenishes the natural volume lost with aging. As hyaluronic acid is clinically produced the risk of allergies is very low. Nowadays the fillers containing hyaluronic acid are the most popular.

Hydroxyl apatite is heavy dermal filler. Hydroxylapatite is used mainly to treat deep creases, frown lines as well as to enhance the fullness of the cheeks. It is a mineral like compound that is naturally found in human bodies.

RADIESSE
Radiesse /previously known as Radiance/ is popular dermal filler that delivers immediate, long lasting result. It’s a form of hydroxyl apatite and is completely biocompatible. It is made of a synthetic substance containing microspheres of calcium hydroxylapetite. As it is very “heavy” Radiesse is mainly used to fill deeper creases, to enhance fullness of the cheeks and other facial contours. Radiesse is injected into the skin through a simple and minimally invasive procedure giving immediate, visible improvement of folds and wrinkles, and providing long-lasting and beautiful results. This filler not only fills in wrinkles, but it stimulates the body to produce new collagen which is essential for a healthy and young-looking skin. Because Radiesse is strong facial filler, it can last up to two years or more.

RESTYLANE
Restylane - based on hyaluronic acid. It’s crystal-clear, non-animal, biodegradable gels. An anti-wrinkle treatment with Restylane is not permanent but a long-lasting. It can be effective for up to 1 year or more after the treatment of wrinkles. Restylane works great to plump thin lips and fill in facial creases, it’s also appropriate for surface wrinkles and concave scars. Restylane is FDA approved and is widely used for soft tissue augmentation. As it is not animal based the risk of allergic reaction is very low and it’s safe to use instantly without pre-testing. Restylane is very popular as it adds volume to the skin without affecting the natural expressions for example like the treatment with Botox. The filler is the most popular dermal filler in the world that is used to contour the face and to enhance the beauty of the face instantly.

JUVEDERM
Juvederm – Dermal filler used to restore a smoother, younger look. It is from the group of the hyaluronic acid fillers. Juvederm is a great choice for those who want to enhance the lips’ size, to correct deep wrinkles and to remove facial lines. Juvederm can also be used to contour cheeks areas and chin. It is injected under the skin to instantly restore the skin’s volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds. Juvederm is the first FDA-approved hyaluronic acid dermal filler that is proven to be safe and effective, the result may last for up to 7/ 8 months.

ARTECOLL
Artecoll /also known as ArteFill /is another very popular dermal filler in Europe but unfortunately it is still not FDA approved in the USA. It is used as an injectable micro-implant for long-lasting subdermal augmentation, which includes the correction of wrinkles and of other defects in the connective tissue – Artecoll is mainly used for correction of small subdermal and osseous defects. This filler is made of polymethylmethacrylate microspheres that are suspended in bovine collagen and as it is collagen based, the patients should be tested for allergy to bovine collagen prior to the treatment.

HYLAFORM
Hylaform is another very popular and widely used dermal filler made from a highly purified form of hyaluronic acid that mimics the effects of natural hyaluronic acid. When injected just below the surface of the skin, Hylaform adds volume to the skin, smoothing unwanted lines and wrinkles. When Hylaform gel is injected into an area on the face, it naturally replaces the hyaluronic acid in the skin which is lost with time. The results with this filler are immediate and long lasting.

EVOLENCE
Evolence is collagen based soft tissue filler that restores a natural, youthful appearance by replenishing the lost collagen, adding volume and smoothing wrinkles and folds. Evolence is injected just below the skin’s surface, where it replaces lost collagen and adds support to your skin’s own remaining collagen network. The results are long-lasting and the risk of allergic reaction is low.

ISOLAGEN
Isolagen is very popular filler used to fill in deep wrinkles, fine lines, deep folds and scars. Isolagen is derived from the patient’s own tissue and cannot be rejected by the human immune system.

Before the treatment with dermal filler you should:
  • Make sure that the surgeon is a licensed physician and has completed extensive training and examinations in plastic surgery
  • Make sure you inform your physician for your state of health, lifestyle and desires
  • Make sure you discuss the outcome of the soft tissue augmentation and any risk or potential complications
  • Make sure you that you have informed your doctor about any past treatments with injectable fillers, Botox or previous plastic surgeries.
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT DURING THE TREATMENT?
First your physician will carefully evaluate your facial appearance and skin tone, he/ she will examine the areas of your face to be augmented with injectable filler.
Depending on the type of the filler that will be injected, a numbing cream or a local anesthetic may be needed, even though that some fillers contain an anesthetic agent.
The surgeon will inject the filler under the skin into the previously marked areas.
The filler will remains in the skin where it binds water to produce a lift and firmness to the treated areas.
You may experience some discomfort for a few seconds.
After the treatment you may experience minimal discomfort like: mild swelling, bruising, redness or temporary numbness.

HOW LONG DOES THE RESULT LAST?
The length of the time that the dermal filler will last depends mainly on the type of the filler used and the area injected. Most of the facial fillers last up to eight months. The continued aging of the face and variables in the absorption of fillers will affect how long the result will last. If you are not happy with the result you shouldn’t repeat the treatment and your appearance will return to its original condition. Unlike the permanent implants or the general plastic surgeries, the dermal fillers can leave you a choice when the effect of the treatment has worn off.

REMEMBER:
  • You can combine dermal fillers with other anti-aging procedures like chemical peel or dermabrasion only after consultation with a physician.
  • Keep in mind that collagen fillers posses a high risk of allergies because collagen is a protein with animal origin.
  • After treatment with dermal filler you may experience slight redness, swelling and bruising but is usually settles by the following day.
  • Always ask your physician for the advantages and the disadvantages of every type of dermal filler, depending on the result you want to achieve.
  • Keep in mind that each filler has its own risk profile.

Cosmetic Oils – The New Powerful Remedy For Your Skin


A few drops of aromatic bath oil can change your mood immediately. The cosmetic industry began to pay more attention to the essential oils since they have discovered their true properties. Until recently the cosmetic oils were used only for a body massage but nowadays there is a huge variety of oils that contain many nourishing and therapeutic ingredients used for different purposes – to regulate oily skin, to shrink large pores, to nourish and moisturize the skin, to repair sun damage, to relief dry skin etc. Nowadays these oils aren’t as oily as they used to be and you can find them at any drugstore or cosmetic counter. The cosmetic oils are appropriate for every age and for every skin type. They can be beneficial for both dry and oily skin as they not only moisturize the skin but they also repair and nourish it.

Maybe your have noticed that the newest face creams, moisturizers, cleansers, body lotions and even the makeup products contain different essential oils due to their properties, smell and benefits.

FACE OILS
The face oils contain a cocktail of essential (vegetable) oils that are “ essential“ for a healthy and beautiful skin. One big misconception is that these oils are appropriate only for dry skin, and that of course isn’t true. For example the teat tree oil or eucalyptus oil have antibacterial properties that regulate the oil production, shrink large pores and repair the skin. If your skin is hypersensitive chamomile oil, olive oil or almond oil will be your best choice as these oils calm and soothe the skin immediately after application. Many of the biggest cosmetic companies began to produce makeup removers in which oil is a main ingredient as it removes any makeup thoroughly without damaging the skin.

How to use and apply face oils?
Apply a small amount of the oil over your entire face and neck and rub the oil very gently to spread it evenly. Leave the oil on your skin for approximately 10/ 15 minutes and then use a tissue to remove the excess. You had better apply the oil in the evening if the product is too oily and you don’t feel comfortable with it. You can also use the oil to massage your skin in order to improve the blood circulation and to “tone“ your skin. Apply the oil with soft, circular motions for about 10 minutes and then remove the excess.

HAIR (SCALP) OILS
Your hair, just as your skin, also needs nourishing and extra TLC. There are different nourishing oils for hair that protect your hair and repair any damage. The active ingredients that these oils contain penetrate deeply into the scalp. They nourish the hair and improve blood circulation. There are oils that regulate the excess sebum production (the biggest problem for those with oily hair), oils that moisturize the hair (for those with dry hair), oils that nourish and repair hair damage (for those with chemically treated hair). There are even hair oils that prevent and “heal“ split ends or frizzy hair. Some scalp oils can even encourage faster hair growth in people with alopecia areata (excessive hair loss) as they nourish and condition the hair deeply.

How to use and apply hair oil?
Hair oils should be applied on dry hair, before washing. To apply the oil evenly you should separate your hair into a few sections. Apply the oil only to the roots and to the ends of the hair, depending on the product, with the aid of your fingers or with a brush. Massage your scalp gently with your fingertips and wrap your head into a towel. Leave the oil on your scalp for approximately 30 minutes, unless the instruction says otherwise. To remove the oil you should use hot or lukewarm water to rinse your hair and a mild shampoo. You can use any hair (scalp) oil once a week to keep your hair and scalp healthy, beautiful and shiny.

BODY OILS
Body oil is a must for those with dry or sensitive skin. The body oils are also known as “dry“ oils because they are absorbed quickly into the skin without leaving any oily patches. The body oils usually come in a spray form and the application is very easy (usually takes 1/ 2 minutes). These oils have a big concentration of moisturizing and nourishing ingredients – essential oils that repair the upper layer of the skin. These oils erase any feeling of dryness or tightness and keep the skin well-moisturized all day long.

How to use and apply body oils?
You shouldn’t use body oil for a massage purposes, as most of them absorb quickly into the skin. Apply the oil on wet skin, straight after a bath as the oil will lock 10 times more moisture than many body lotions or creams.

NAIL AND CUTICLE OILS
Nail and cuticle oils are the best “remedy“ for brittle, weak nails and dry cuticles. The nourishing ingredients soften the cuticles, straighten the nails and prevent the appearance of dry cuticles.

How to use and apply nail and cuticle oil?
Apply the oil daily by gently rubbing it into the cuticles. Massage in to help increase circulation to the nail bed and stimulate new nail growth. Reapply as often as desired.

1. Lavender oil

Common Skin Care Mistakes


Skin care Mistake 1. You think you can hydrate your skin simply with water.
It may seem simply but actually water contains large amounts of salt which may easily settle on the surface of your skin leading to the opposite effect – to dry the skin. If you want to hydrate your skin you should use thermal sprays as they have the best hydrating action. Thermal water contains minerals and elements which are useful for your skin - it moisturizes and soothes the skin, preventing it from feeling tight and dry. Recent clinical research show that the mineral-rich water fortifies the skin, restores the pH balance and protects the skin against external aggressors like pollutionn for example. Applying thermal water in the form of a spray is easy and simple – spray it on the skin and after a minute wipe your skin dry.

Skin care Mistake 2. You think you can use your friend’s or mother’s skin care products. Yes, you can use these products but only if they are appropriate for your skin type. Using the wrong skin care products is the most common skin care mistake. A recent research show that 64 percent of the women do not know what exactly is their skin type as well as that 37 percent of the teenagers use the wrong skincare and makeup products. For example if your skin feels tight and dry in the morning and during the day it simply means that your skin is dry; if you are prone to sudden rashes and burns it means your skin might be sensitive; if your skin appears too oily and greasy your skin may be mixed or oily.

Skin care Mistake 3. You think you can nourish your skin by applying Vitamin E ampoule.
It is true that vitamin E has excellent nourishing and moisturizing properties but when it is applied in the form of oil solution it may seriously irritate your skin and cause the appearance of rashes and small dark spots. Vitamin E added to lotions, creams, and other skin care products, as well as taken orally, plays a role in the anti-aging of skin. It helps skin look younger by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, reduce the risk of sun damage to cells as well as reduce the production of cancer-causing cells but you should remember that the concentration of the ampoule should not be more than 5 % otherwise it may cause serious side effects.


Skin care Mistake 4. You think all of the essential oils are harmful for oily skin.
Absolutely wrong. Only the mineral oils may clog the pores and cause irritation to the skin. Almost 78 percent of the skin care products contain essential oils which have different field of acting – one hydrate the skin; others nourish the skin making it look younger and cleaner. For example jojoba oil, olive oil, aloe vera are recommended for those women with combination or oily skin.

Skin care Mistake 5. You thing that the scrub with natural particles is better than the ones with synthetic granules.
Just the opposite. The edges of the synthetic particles have been processed and they won’t cause trauma to your skin. Limit the usage of sea salt only form your knees, heels, elbows but never exfoliate your skin or neck with sea salt.

Choose Your Cosmetics According To Your Age


Under the age of 12
Most of the biggest cosmetic companies have a special range of makeup products for children. But that doesn’t mean that a child should use makeup. Even a lipstick in a pinky shade won’t look nice on child’s lips. You can buy your daughter a children’s shampoo, children’s toothpaste that contain special ingredients that won’t cause any problems. A colorless lip balm with propolis, Vaseline, honey or fruity taste will protect your child’s lips without looking unnatural. After taking a shower you may apply an oily baby oil or cream such as Johnson&Johnson Baby, Baby Oil.

Teen’s years
During puberty your skin has many problems – pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, excessive oil production. Most of the girls begin using heavy foundations and powders to hide these imperfections but that often aggravate the condition.

The most important thing is to keep your skin clean. There are thousands of anti-bacterial cleansing gels, foams, creams that are suitable for the sensitive teenager’s skin. Form a habit of cleansing your face every day with appropriate products – cleansers, toners and use face creams containing natural ingredients. Gradually you will understand what exactly works best for you.В The hydrating cleansing milk and lotions are great choice for every teenager. Do an exfoliating mask once or twice a week to remove the dead skin cells. Don’t panic is a pimple appears before an important event – you are not the first nor the last person that has pimples. Don’t forget to use a sunscreen to prevent the appearance of brown spots. Enjoy your youth.

At the age of 19 to 26
This is the time when your skin needs less care. A good hydrating cream and daily facial cleansing should be all that’s needed to keep your skin healthy looking. It is still early to start using anti-aging creams with collagen, Retinol or an eye cream. Your skin is still elastic and fresh and there is no need to “nourish“ it with additional rejuvenating ingredients. The most important thing is to wear a sunscreen with SPF higher than 15. You know that the sun is the biggest enemy of the youthful skin. The undesired skin imperfections such as acne, comedones, pimples on the back and shoulders can be avoided with regular cleaning of the skin and a proper diet that includes fresh vegetables and fruits. Limit the consumption of greasy foods, chocolate, alcohol, cigarette smoke.

At the age of 26 to 35
The women in this age should be careful for the harmful influences on their skin. Insufficient sleep, smoking, stress, hormonal changes reflect to your skin. At that age you should begin using a combination of night and day cream as well as an eye cream. Again continue using a sunscreen to prevent premature aging due to the sun’s harmful rays. At the age of 30 you can see the first signs of aging – fine lines around the eyes and around the mouth, brown spots. Most of the cosmetic companies have special ranges for the different age groups.

Over 35
At the age of 35 you should start using anti-aging skincare products. You should use day and night anti-aging serums, creams and the usage of an anti-aging eye cream is crucial. Keep your skin clean and don’t apply too much makeup. Look for a light reflecting foundations and powders, with anti-aging ingredients. Avoid using too bright colors for your makeup as they can make you appear older. Using nourishing masks and nourishing lotions is essential in order to keep your skin healthy and glowing.

Breast Cancer myths


1. Breast cancer only affects older women.
No, that’s not true. While it’s true that the risk of breast cancer increases as we grow older, breast cancer can occur at any age. There are registered cases when a 13 year old girl was diagnosed with breast cancer.

2. If you have a risk factor for breast cancer, you’re likely to get the disease.
No, that’s not true. Getting breast cancer is not a certainty, even if you have one of the stronger risk factors, like a breast cancer gene abnormality. Of women with a inherited genetic abnormality, will develop breast cancer over their lifetime, 20 – 60% won’t. All other risk factors are associated with a much lower probability of being diagnosed with breast cancer.

3. If breast cancer doesn’t run in your family, you won’t get it.
No, that’s not true. Every woman has some risk of breast cancer. About 70% of women who get breast cancer have no known family history of the disease. Increasing age – just the wear and tear of living is the biggest single risk factor for breast cancer. For those women who do have a family history of breast cancer, your risk may be elevated a little, a lot, or not at all. If you are concerned, discuss your family history with your GP or a genetic counselor.

4. Only your mother’s family history of breast cancer can affect your risk.
No, that’s not true. A history of breast cancer in your mother’s or your father’s family will influence your risk equally. That’s because half of your genes come from your mother, half from your father. But a man with a breast cancer gene abnormality is less likely to develop breast cancer than a woman with a similar gene. So, if you want to learn more about your father’s family history, you have to look mainly at the women on your father’s side, not just the men.

Rata Penuh5. Using antiperspirants causes breast cancer.
No, that’s not true. There is no evidence that the active ingredient in antiperspirants, or reducing perspiration from the underarm area, influences breast cancer risk. The supposed link between breast cancer and antiperspirants is based on misinformation about anatomy and a misunderstanding of breast cancer.

6. Birth control pills cause breast cancer.
No, that’s not true. Modern day birth control pills contain a low dose of the hormones estrogen and progesterone. Many research studies show no association between birth control pills and an increased risk of breast cancer. However, one study that combined the results of many different studies did show an association between birth control pills and a very small increase in risk. The study also showed that this slight increase in risk decreased over time.

7. Eating high-fat foods causes breast cancer
No, that’s not true. Several large studies have not been able to demonstrate a clear connection between eating high-fat foods and a higher risk of breast cancer. Ongoing studies are attempting to clarify this issue further. Excess body weight, is a risk factor for breast cancer, because the extra fat increases the production of estrogen outside the ovaries and adds to the overall level of estrogen in the body. If you are already overweight, or have a tendency to gain weight easily, avoiding high-fat foods is a good idea.

8. A monthly breast self-exam is the best way to diagnose breast cancer. Yes, at some point. High quality, film-screen mammography is the most reliable way to find breast cancer as early as possible, when it is most curable. By the time a breast cancer can be felt, it is usually bigger than the average size of a cancer first found on mammography. Breast examination by you or your healthcare provider is still very important. About 25% of breast cancers are found only on breast examination (not on the mammogram), about 35% are found on mammography alone, and 40% are found by both physical exam and mammography. Keep both bases covered.

9. I’m at high risk for breast cancer and there’s nothing I can do about it. No, that’s not true. There are several effective ways to reduce,but not eliminate the risk of breast cancer in women at high risk. Options include lifestyle changes (minimize alcohol consumption, stop smoking, exercise regularly), medication (tamoxifen); and in cases of very high risk, surgery may be offered (prophylactic mastectomies, and for some women, prophylactic ovary removal). Be sure that you have consulted with a physician or genetic counselor before you make assumptions about your level of risk.

10. A breast cancer diagnosis is an automatic death sentence
No, that’s not true. Fully 80% of women diagnosed with breast cancer have no signs of metastases (no cancer has spread beyond the breast and nearby lymph nodes). Furthermore, 80% of these women live at least five years, most longer, and many live much longer. Even women with signs of cancer metastases can live a long time. Plus promising treatment breakthroughs are becoming available each day.
