Natural Fat Burners In Food

Many weight loss products have been popping up frequently in the market. Too many people are overweight because of the lifestyle they lead and the quality of food they eat. Because of our common orientation towards instant gratification, we always seek the fastest results that money can buy.

Amazingly, not many people know that there are natural fat burners in our body, and that there are certain kinds of foods that you can eat to help reduce. For example, the pectin in apples block absorption of fat and encourage water absorption, which helps get rid of fat through regular defecation. The antioxidants in the apple's skin also helps prevent metabolic syndrome, a medical condition that stores excess belly fat and marked by the apple body shape.

Capsaicin in chilies also help in burning calories, which increases your chances of losing weight. Another natural fat burner is Vitamin C, which can be absorbed through eating citrus fruits or through taking vitamin C supplements. The vitamin stimulates the amino acid, Carnitine, which speeds up the body’s fat-burning capacity.

Along with pectin, capsaicin and vitamin C, fiber-rich and protein-rich foods are also natural fat burners. In fact, fiber is a very important element in getting rid of fat. The less time that digested food stays in one's system, the less fat will be stored in the body. This also cleanses the body of harmful toxins that can upset the body's balance.

Skin Care Benefits of Using Sulfur Soap

Many people frequented these places because the hot water therapy soothed their aching muscles and the sulfur healed their skin problems, such as acne vulgaris, whiteheads, blackheads, eczema, rosacea, scabies, and seborrheic dermatitis. Now, sulfur's cleansing properties are packaged neatly in soap bars. The ten percent sulfur content in the soap has enough potency to effectively produce the same effective results as dipping your whole body in a pool of sulfur-rich hot water. Like in the ancient times, use sulfur soaps to reme...

How Do You Treat Scalp Acne and Scalp Dermatitis?

A case of Seborrhoeic Dermatitis on the back of the head (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) If you suffer from pimples on the scalp, then it's important to find a good scalp acne treatment. They're ugly, painful, and irritating. We can't see them ourselves so we pick them often by scratching our scalp before knowing they're there. Scalp wounds tend to bleed and this can make the spots visible, especially if your hair is thinning, fine or very short. Most acne on the scalp has the same cause as acne on the face, that is, overproduction of sebum leading to blockages of hair follicles, which often become infected. Inflammation can be caused by a condition called seborrheic dermatitis , and this, together with oily skin, is what you have to go along with scalp acne. What happens is the scalp will be red and itchy and the skin will flake off as dandruff. Associated with the condition of seborrheic dermatitis and more serious cases is yeast and it's someti...

A brief vacation

I have just got back from UP Diliman for a week of respite. I had training for trainers at UP SoLaIR (School of Labor and Industrial Relations). It was a working vacation. At least I had time to slow down and not think of work for a few days. It was good! Really felt good to be taken cared of by the University Hotel staff.
