For centuries in traditional chinese medicine goji has played an important part in its health promoting properties and as a powerful anti-aging food. The goji berries, also known as wolfberries, grow on vines that are native to the Himalayas. They also can be grown in other areas if the climate is right. The goji was discovered by early Himalayan healers who in legends were praised for the good health and longer life that was provided to those who ate the fruit daily.

Some years ago, FreeLife & Dr. Earl Mindell teamed up to create a goji juice that could have all the benefits of the fruit by using an extraction process for a standardized form of the plant. There has been much controversy about their Himalayan Goji Juice as to how significant the health benefits may be. Dr. Mindell’s passionate claims of anti-aging properties to curing of cancer and other diseases, produced a confrontational CBC television documentary with the intent to stamp out most of these claims by emphasizing that the main purpose was to take advantage of sick patients monetarily by hyping a “miracle cure” through pyramid marketing.

The Freelife Goji Juice also is not made from goji berries grown in the Himalayas. Dr. Mindell stated that the unique polysaccharides in his product has the same exact nutrient profile as the Himalayan kind and that only his juice has the master molecules that help smooth functioning of the cells in the body.

Whether the Himalayan Goji Juice has substantial health benefits, the company believes it does and stands behind their claims.

A person who suffered from Acne all his adolescence and early adulthood life, discovered the “Regimen” about 10 years ago in a desperate desire to get rid of the devastating acne. He used the Regimen for Acne Treatment and it was proven to be successful and satisfying. Thus, he wanted to share the Regimen for those who suffer the same dilemma with acne.

The Regimen is actually a process with three easy-to-follow steps, making use of low-cost products bought over the counter. It should be regularly done twice daily, preferably with 12 hours interval to achieve the best possible results.

Step 1. Gentle Washing of Face

Splatter your neck, face, and other affected areas with lukewarm water from the shower or sink. Using a mild cleansing soap, make a lather in your hands and gently wash affected areas for a few seconds. Avoid using a washcloth because it may be too irritating. This facial washing prepares the area for the application of Benzoyl Peroxide. After gently washing the face with soap and water, rinse mildly and pat dry instead of rubbing. Wait for about 5 to 15 minutes to allow the skin to completely dry.

Step 2. Generous Application of 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide

Wash your hands and dry them after. If you are still a novice when it comes to using the Regimen, start using a lesser amount of Benzoyl Peroxide to avoid irritation. After 2 to 4 weeks, the amount can be gradually increased until full amount is reached. Squeeze out enough Benzoyl Peroxide and gently spread it on the skin using your fingers. Avoid rubbing, let your fingers move smoothly instead, use cautiously on the affected areas near your eyes. Stratum corneum, which is the most superficial skin layer near your eyes, is about 0.9% thinner than the rest of the facial skin, and is thus extremely sensitive. When a cream is used, it should be applied to smaller skin areas to avoid drying out of the cream before it is absorbed. Benzoyl Peroxide in gel form can be safely applied to the whole face at the same time. Benzoyl Peroxide can result to itchiness and redness thus it is important to start with minimal amount. Redness or itchiness are normal side effects and will subside but crusting and swelling are signs of an allergic reaction, which prompts the need for medical consultation and immediate stoppage of the application.

Step 3. Application of a Good Moisturizer

Wash your hands again and dry them before you start applying moisturizers. Moisturizer helps mask the flaky effects of the Benzoyl Peroxide, allowing you to go outside the house with your skin looking normal. If you still have flaky skin, applying additional moisturizer is necessary. Start moisturizing once daily. Carefully avoid applying moisturizer near the eyes because it can gather up some Benzoyl Peroxide underneath and may cause irritation to the sensitive areas.

The Regimen, when followed and practiced appropriately, is really effective in treating acne, The secret behind its effectiveness is actually the generous application of 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide, which helps oxygenate the skin and prevents bacterial growth.

Pregnancy signs in women usually appear during the first few weeks of conception. Some of the signs include a missed or abnormal menstrual period, nausea, vomiting, breast tenderness, weight gain, breast enlargement and frequent urination.

In order to initially diagnose if a woman is pregnant, a pregnancy test would need to be taken to determine if there is presence of the hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) hormone in the urine or blood. A pregnancy test kit, which tests the urine for the hCG hormone, can readily be purchased at a drug store.  Pregnancy information and diagnosis can also be obtained from a visit to the health clinic.

Once pregnancy has been confirmed it is necessary to find a local obgyn who will provide health care for the duration of the pregnancy. The doctor will monitor the progress of the pregnancy and treat any conditions or complications that may arise.  The obstetrician/gynecologist also assists in the birth of the baby.

Pregnancy can be both a sensitive and exciting time for a woman as she anticipates and prepares for the birth of her child.
