FOODS THAT WILL MAKE YOU LOOK OLDER

Looking young is one of the biggest desires of human kind. The beauty industry is a multi-billion dollar industry annually. We want smooth, supple skin. We want thick, shiny hair. We want bright, vibrant eyes. We want an image that attracts...everybody!

So don't mess it up!

Taking care of your health is a huge part of maintaining an attractive, polished image. Many of us spend thousands upon thousands of dollars buying products that "rewind time" and clothes that bring out our best, only to demolish those efforts with spoonfuls of unhealthiness.

 

THE SHOPPING FRIEND'S BEST NON-TOXIC ORGANIC DEODORANTS

As always, I like products that tend to be more organic and toxic-free because I believe the health of our bodies adds to our outer beauty. The deodorants listed here have minimal to no toxic chemicals with maximum effectiveness.

There is much debate about aluminum in antiperspirants. Antiperspirants rely on various forms of aluminum salts to block and dry out sweat. Since it’s known that aluminum is a potent neuro-toxin and has been linked in some studies to an increased risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease and breast cancer, I figure, better safe than sorry.

 

THE SHOPPING FRIEND'S BEST NON-TOXIC ORGANIC SHAMPOOS

Do we really need to be concerned about what's in our shampoo? It's on our heads for, like what? 2 minutes tops?

Okay. You’re thinking that it’s just hair. It’s dead. Who cares if there are some toxic ingredients in it? Hair can’t absorb it and we’re washing it out anyway.

It sounds like a logical argument. It's wrong. But it does sound logical.

This is not the area to be lax with your health awareness. Your hair isn’t the concern. It’s the wonderfully thirsty, porous, spongy layers of your scalp! They are the most sensitive and absorbent part of your body.
