Natural Remedies to Make Your Hair Grow
Fortunately for consumers, federal regulatory agencies such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Federal Trade Commission make it their job to take off the market “natural” hair growth treatments that make impossible claims. There’s no special potion or natural herbal supplement to make your existing hair grow faster or thicker. But, if you give your hair some special attention, and treat it gently, healthier, happier tresses can be yours — naturally.
The Best Exercise During Pregnancy to Boost Energy
Exercise during pregnancy won’t just give you extra energy — it can put you in a better mood, keep your muscles nicely toned, help you sleep better and make it easier on your body during your delivery and post-pregnancy recovery, says the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, or ACOG. The best exercise program for you includes activities that are effective and safe, and that can be performed with minimal discomfort.
Hair Regrowth Products With Guaranteed Results
Hair loss affects both men and women. Andogenetic alopecia, also known as pattern baldness or hereditary hair loss, makes up almost 95 percent of all cases of hair loss. Infomercials, print ads and Internet marketers offer topical serums, supplements and laser combs “guaranteed” to give you results. Take a second look at these hair regrowth products, and you’ll find that you have no assurance of their safety or efficacy, as defined by the FDA.
Good Personal Hygiene Habits for Preteens
As your child enters her preteen years, a brand new flood of hormones cause physical changes, as well as a whole new set of problems — body odor, oily hair and acne, to name a few. Good personal hygiene is essential for the tween who’s socially engaged and self-assured. Personal hygiene isn’t simply about cleanliness or physical attractiveness; the tween who makes it a habit to bathe every day and use antiperspirant shows consideration for others who share the same space.
Food for a Vomiting Child
Nausea and vomiting aren’t conditions — they’re symptoms suggesting that something is afoot in your child’s gastrointestinal tract. A vomiting child likely won’t be able to summon up a healthy appetite soon after he throws up, but getting him back on solids is essential for good health. The American Academy of Pediatrics, or AAP, advises you to withhold solid foods while your child is still vomiting — however, make sure he continues to receive fluids to prevent dehydration.
