Water Therapy

We all know the extent to which water is essential for our body, so I won’t be dragging this topic here. Instead I’ll just mention the ideal time of having water. The three best times to have water are;

  • Early in the morning; before your breakfast: Taking in 2 glasses of water daily (single glass will work too, but it’s more effective to have 2 glasses), after you wake up helps clean the toxins from body, active your internal organs and increase metabolism rate.
    I can’t take 2 glasses of water at once, so I usually take one glass as soon as I wake up and the next when I am preparing my breakfast.
  • Before meals: Taking water  (15 minutes) before meals  helps improve the digestive system. Bring it in your routine for a healthy You.
    Make sure not to consume water soon after your food, it’s harmful for the body; destroys the digestive system. You can have a sip or two in-between the meal, but don’t take it after your last spoon.
  • Before bath: One glass of water before bath helps in reducing the blood pressure.

Simply just having a glass of water can do so much for you. With health, sufficient amount of water also enhance your beauty by keeping skin fresh, firm and glowing. Everyday intake of water can effectively reduce acne and prevent breakouts. Furthermore, it strengthens hair and allows growth. So in your busy routine, make sure to grab a glass of water now and then.

But how much to take? I believe trust your thirst; whenever you’re thirsty, go get some water for yourself. But make sure not to over consume, as it can also be detrimental for your health.

Stay Hydrated, Stay healthy.

Miracles of Olive Oil

Olive oil is the richest source of unsaturated fats and antioxidants and assist in fighting against cholesterol preventing from cardiovascular diseases. There are plenty other such health significance of consuming olive oil but there are some benefits which olive oil yields when used externally. Here are few of them, which helped me; Image

Dark Circles

Dark circles usually occur due to stress and lack of sleep but with use of olive oil it’s not difficult to get rid of them. A month back, I tried using olive oil on my dark circles as per my mother’s guidance and it actually turned out to be effective.

To apply, dip your ring finger’s tip in olive oil and massage under your eye for about a minute. Ring finger is generally used to massage under the eye area as it is a sensitive part and ring finger does not apply a greater force on it.

The way this worked out for me and for my sister too, I hope it will work for you as well.

Dandruff and hair fall

I either use mustard oil or olive oil for my hair care. Using one of these keeps hair healthy adding flair in them. But one substantial role that olive oil play is; it fights against the dandruff and moisturizes the dry scalp. If you face dandruff or hair loss problem, apply olive oil twice a week, it will help you get rid of it.

Works for Lips too

Olive oil is my winter’s best lip balm. With finger tip, apply a little amount of oil on lips daily, to prevent them from drying up in winters and keeping them soft.

Excellent Make-up Remover

Yes, so far olive oil is proved as an excellent makeup remover for me. It cleans all the makeup and the most optimal part; it will never clog the pores and cause pimples. So try it as a makeup remover and you will never buy any other.

Try to keep your skin away from harsh chemicals and use the natural products where you can to maintain a healthy looking skin.

Hope you find it helpful.
