My favorite health magazine! I just renewed after a lapse and will be posting tips from it bi-monthly.
Prevention, May 2011
Momma Sheryl Crow is featured - Can you believe she's 49!!
She looks awesome!
Selected Health & Beauty Tips:
colorful lips are more attractive (I never used to wear lipstick, now I do, sometimes).
- naturally whiten your teeth with - an apple!
- after soaking up too much sun at the ballpark, drench a thin cloth in milk and lay it on your face for 5 minutes - to reduce redness and calm irritation! (whodathunk!)
- want that candlelight glow all day? dust shimmery powder just under your brows.
- lose something? don't get mad, get glad - apparently when you're amused you think clearer.
- eat more tomatoes, carrots and peaches for a healthy, attractive glow from the beta-carotene (just not too much, don't want to look like an oompa loompa)
- the riper the banana, the more sugar and less healthy it gets
- eat more berries! and tuna! (not necessarily together)
- drink more water, eat more fruits and veggies and less junk (1600 cal/day and every 4-5 hrs)
- exercise (cardio & strength training - alternating every other day)
- get more rest

Love the tips!
Great tips. I fell off the wagon a while ago and it's time to get back on for my health. Vegan's a good way to go, or a least once a week.
Wonderful tips! Spring is a great time to turn over a new leaf health-wise.
I didn't know that about the sugar content of bananas, no matter how much sugar was in it, I expect the banana I had with my afternoon tea was probably still a healthier choice than the chocolate cake with peanut butter icing that was calling my name. :-)
An apple, really? Haha, I just grabbed one. It's quite delicious---I really should think of eating one more often. Thanks for the tips. :)
Those are some great tips. Especially that one about dipping a cloth in milk. Never heard of that!
thanks, y'all!
Kris - I've been trying to get on the wagon for years...
C R - you made me LOL (and I hate writing that!)
Nicki - isn't that funny, I should too.
Karen - I'm going to try that milk one =) thanks for stopping by!
Yep, Sheryl Crow is gorgeous. I can't believe she's 49. Wow!!
These are really great tips, I'm definitely going to put some of those to use. Thanks for sharing.
