Low Glycemic Index Diet Recipes
Not all carbohydrates affect our bodies in the same way, so the glycemic index, which was first developed by Dr. David Jenkins at the University in Toronto in 1981, ranks carbohydrates according to how they affect blood glucose levels. Low glycemic carbohydrate foods produce small changes in insulin and blood glucose levels, and they aid in reducing heart disease and diabetes. A diet low in glycemic index carbohydrates is part of an effective, sustainable weight loss program.
How to Use Homemade Skin Treatments
Many homemade beauty recipes are quick and easy to prepare. You can make them yourself in your own kitchen. The best part is that they cost less than commercial skin care products. In addition to saving money, there are numerous benefits to using natural ingredients, many of which you probably already have in your pantry. But be sure not to use any ingredients that you might be allergic to, especially if you have sensitive skin.
How to Make Baby Shower Centerpieces
The baby shower centerpiece can serve a dual purpose at the party. The centerpiece will add color and life to the table setting, and it can also be used to feed guests, as a place to put small gifts for the expecting mom, or as a place to store party favors for the guests. Centerpieces that can be shared by the guests, rather than taken home by one guest at the end of the party (unless it’s the guest of honor) are best. The centerpieces can match any theme or color scheme.
Herbal Face Mask Recipes
Throughout history, women have used face masks to revitalize their complexions and produce a natural glow. Fortunately, you probably already own many of the ingredients that are the basis for making an all-natural, homemade face mask. Your concoction has the added benefit of being free of the additives, fillers, fragrances, artificial colors and chemicals that many drugstore and designer brands of face masks contain, all of which can irritate rather than soothe skin. For best results, use a face mask once a week in addition to vitamin E for moisturizing or witch hazel for toning.
