Skin Tightener ST Skin Tightening Therapy: anti-aging, wellness, beauty, and health |
| 9/11/2008 4:33:03 AM |
The Skin Tightener ST is an innovative new technology for non-invasive skin remodeling and skin tightening therapy. The Skin Tightener works by stimulating the growth of collagen to reduce wrinkles and the affect of aging on skin. Collagen is the natural substance that gives human skin its soft, full, youthful appearance. The human body produces collagen from birth, producing less and less collagen until as we age until in the late 40's collagen production essentially stops in the body. The body also produces a natural enzyme known as collagenase, which breaks down collagen. This lack of collagen in later life leads to the start of lines, wrinkles, and generally tired, shagging looking skin that occurs during aging. Skin Tightener ST Therapy acts to cause new collagen production, helping to create a younger, more vital appearance to the skin.
Skin Tightener ST is the only current treatment of its kind claiming to produce immediate positive skin results followed by progressive improvement for up to six months. Since spurring collagen growth involves creating new substance by the skin cells, collagen stimulation can take several months to show obvious results. There is some immediate skin tightening and wrinkle reduction since Skin Tightener ST also reaches the deeper layers of the skin where it's affects show rapid improvement. Skin Tightening treatments have been shown by users to cause minimal discomfort, which are usually temporary. There is no reddening of the face, causing individuals reluctance to go out in public immediately after treatment. People using ST can resume their normal routine immediately after the skin treatment, and can even be combined with as other treatments.
Skin Tightener ST features a unique mixture of plant and marine ingredients, which is said to produce a tightening effect on the skin in around five minutes after application to the skin. The beneficial effects for the skin of ocean products like kelp have been known for ages. Skin Tightener ST includes both Natural Ocean and herbal ingredients that enhance the synthesis of collagen, tightening and rejuvenating the skin and reducing wrinkles. ST also contains Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide, an anti-inflammatory agent that helps heal aging damaged skin, and the ingredient Acetyl Hexapeptide-3, which reduces the skin sagging that contribute to wrinkles and lines on the face.

Arthritis Treatment for Health and Wellness |
| 9/10/2008 11:15:37 PM |
Suffering from the painful effects of arthritis is often so severe. The simplest movements can even cause anguish and tears. But, there are treatments to help arthritis.
Are there treatment or cure to arthritis?
First and foremost, let us have a brief overview of arthritis. Arthritis is an inflammation in the joints. There are many different types of arthritis. The causes of each will help to determine the treatment to be applied. The symptoms of any arthritis start with pain---particularly joint-pains.
Arthritis can strike any individual, not necessarily older people. If symptoms of pain are accompanied with fever, visit a doctor immediately as this can be an indication of the worse arthritis known as septic arthritis.
The problem in rheumatoid arthritis is that, in trying to deal with the inflammation, the immune system ends up attacking the cartilage in the joints. The end result is pain and lessened use of the effected joint. In order to stop this process, arthritis treatments can be anything from surgery to medications. There are some good notes about medications, but in the end, they can not resolve the entire problem, only mask the pain for a while. Surgery is invasive and costly. Physical treatment is available and has shown good progress in helping some patients.
There are also herbal remedies that have shown good signs of helping as well. There is one product that we would like to mention in a little more detail. What is so unique about this product, though, is that it is a natural treatment that can be taken. In the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in particular, collagen type II can be just as good as a cure to some individuals. This natural substance is actually a main component of cartilage itself. But, no injections are needed because this is an oral treatment. You will take a pill, in other words. There are many reasons why this medication works including the fact that it has an absorption rate of 70 to 90 percent. This means more of it is used and fewer doses are needed. There are other reasons why it works so well. For instance, the immune system has a component of cells in the intestine called the GALT. This is where proteins are recognized as food or “friend” and therefore not treated as allergies or sensitivities by the digestive system. When collagen type II is ingested, the GALT recognizes this amino acid as a friendly protein. This action switches off the immune system’s attack on collagen elsewhere in the body as in arthritic joints. Instead of the immune system fighting the inflammation and destroying the remaining good material, the Galt simply tells it to stop. And, probably the most important aspect of this natural arthritis treatment is that it can also help to rebuild the damaged and destroyed cartilage. The combination of these two factors can help to restore a normal way of life.

Are You Crazy? Using Charcoal as a Natural Remedy to Boils and Abscesses? |
| 9/9/2008 2:52:55 AM |
Am I Crazy writing this?
No, I am not. Yet I want to share with you this information I got using charcoal to treat boils and abscesses.
- All you need to do is to chop the charcoal or have it as a powder.
- Then wet it with water and wrap it in a handkerchief or a clean piece of cloth.
- apply directly to the wound as poultice twice a day.
Well, in case you are in doubt using this to yourself yet still remain curious of experimenting them. You can try this on your pets and see how charcoal makes wonders on your pets. Healing Wonders of Nature is something we cannot understand by just looking at the material or face value of a thing---for instance this charcoal. Who would expect a charcoal to be used as a remedy for boils?
I rather used charcoal for barbecue; and now this talk for charcoal is no longer becoming healthy. I guess let us just stick to charcoal as a remedy for boils making charcoal an agent for health and wellness. (hehehehe)

Elumea is an Herbal Remedy for Boils and Abscesses |
| 9/9/2008 2:32:02 AM |
Elumea otherwise known as Ngaicamphor, Alimon, Sambong, and many other local names depending on country and region is an excellent remedy for boils and abscesses.
Its scientific name is Blumea Balsamifera.
This is another healing wonders of nature in the form of herb. Herbs are generally these days "PATOK" meaning "IN". Hope it will not just be a fad; all these herbs are wonders of God's loving concern for his people---US.
Herbs are created for humanity and the rest of the creatures to keep us healthy and well. Hence we should also nurture them and love them.
How do we use Elumea to treat boil and abscess?
- Chop five (5) fresh leaves
- Apply them directly as poultice on the wound and surrounding area.
- Apply this twice a day
This is as simple as that. In using herbs, we don't have a lot of rituals to do that. Herbs are supposed to help man needed and as needed. Herbs are not substitutes to modern medicince. They can be great supplements though.

Treat Boils and Abscesses with Jackfruit: Another Healing Wonders of Nature |
| 9/9/2008 2:16:54 AM |
What is a jackfruit?
Merriam-Webster defines the jackfruit as a large tropical Asian tree (Artocarpus heterophyllus)related to the breadfruit that yields a fine-grained yellow wood andimmense fruits which contain an edible pulp and nutritious seeds; also : its fruit.
A jackfruit is otherwise known as Langka or Nangka. It is very sweet and the seeds are also edible when boiled.
How is it use to treat boils and abscesses?
- get the milk juice from the trunk and mix it with a little vinegar. Natural vinegar is preferrable, not the synthetic vinegars.
- warm the mixture and use it for hot compress. Use a piece of clean cloth or gauze as compress.
- apply jackfruit as hot compress for 20 minutes.
That is all for the jackfruit aside from its sweet taste and smell. Healing using herbs is one of God's miracles and blessings to mankind and the world. We seldom acknowledge this not until we need the healing wonders of nature.
It is natural, safe, and effective.
This application for healing is not meant to substitute modern medicine. This is to supplement them to enhance health and wellness.

Healing Abscesses and Boils Using Herbs like Amarillo or Marigold |
| 9/9/2008 12:32:29 AM |
How do we use or apply this herb called Marigold or Amarillo to the boil or abscess?
Here is a very simple step in applying herbs to boils and abscesses. The herb we have in mind now is Marigold. I think many of us are familiar to it; Marigold is also called by many Asians especially Filipinos as Amarillo.
- First is to find your fresh Marigold leaves and flowers
- Second is to crush three (3) leaves and two (2) flowers of Marigold; wash them first with clean water before crushing just for a few seconds.
The purpose of crushing it is to make it a poultice. A poultice as defined by Merriam-Webster is a soft usually heated and sometimes medicated mass spread on cloth and applied to sores or other lesions. In our context, we don't heat the leaves and flowers.
- Third is to apply the Marigold poultice directly to the boil and abscess including its surrounding area. Do this twice a day until healing is completed.

Healing Abscesses and Boils Using Clean Water Treatment is Natural and Safe |
| 9/8/2008 11:42:51 PM |
Water Treatment is of nature's healing wonders. I do not suggest that you use this to substitute medicine especially when anti-biotic is needed for patient. However, I strongly suggest that you do this together with the medicine prescribed by the doctor.
Do a hot compress for 30 minutes on the boil or abscess. Do this two times a day until the abscess or boil is ripened.
Hot compress is a natural method to relieve pain and congestion . It increases local blood circulation on the area where hot compress is applied.
These are the things you need to prepare for the hot compress application:
- hot water in a basin around (104 f) or hotter as it can be tolerated
- face towel or any clean cloth
- you may use herbs with it like boiled guava leaves in case the wound is infected
Steps in doing the natural method of healing abscess and boils:
- boil an herb like guava for infected wounds
- wring compress from hot water on basin.
- apply compress directly on the area to be treated. Remember, do this without applying pressure on the area
- compress must be changed every three minutes. If wound is infected, use the compress only once/ Do not dip it again and again on hot water. Use several compress
- continue the application for 15 minutes
- apply ointment as prescribed by the doctor at the end of the hot compress application
- then keep it dry before applying the sterile dressing
This is it for now on how to heal boils and abscesses as natural and safe as possible using the healing wonders of nature in the form of water.
By the way, if boil is near the eye, use oil or cream before applying the compress.

Diet Patches, a way to cope with hunger during Ramadan. |
| 9/5/2008 8:40:48 AM |
| Controversial as it may be, many Muslims have found a way to cope with hunger during the Ramadan with diet patches. The use of diet patches or weight loss patches does not sit well with Saudi religious scholars. They state that there needs to be more research before there can be an Islamic stance on the issue. That research would include testing to see if in fact these... Read More |
