Height Matters

fitness advice, health information, mental fitness No Comments »

When I was young, I always used to be sitting in front of the class because the little kids get to stay in front so bigger kids won’t block their view. This worried my mom a little. All of my other siblings had average height, and I was exceptionally puny.

She reserved a wall in our house to measure my height, she would make me lean onto it every two months or so, and note down how much I grew and what date it was. It acted pretty much like a stadiometer.

It was cute, I randomly passed by that wall when I was 16, and seeing how much I’ve grown in all those years gave me goosebumps. I actually didn’t think I’d be this tall, I got used to being in front of the class and looking up when I talk to someone. Haha!

My mom actually bought me growth enhancing medicine, and it seems like they worked, ’cause now I’m one of the tallest people in my university block. Thank god for awesome moms, right!?

So if you’re small like me, there’s still hope!

Help me out, please?

I recently have been doing a little research regarding various acne treatment systems.

If you have information regarding the said topic, please feel free to comment on this area, I will make sure to write your name down in my references when I publish my article. It will also most likely be posted in this blog as well.

There has been a lot of ways to treat acne, and I can say most of us are afraid to try each and every one of them, since there is no guarantee that the product actually works and are worth every penny we spent in them for, and that’s what made me want to write an article about them.

I would like to get interviews with people who have tried various acne treatment systems and know the effects that it produced on their skin.

If you know anyone with firsthand experience, please direct them to me! It would be greatly appreciated.

Guys just do not learn

Today is the start of a new fiscal year for our company. Unfortunately, most employees are either absent or absent minded today. Most of them have hangovers from drinking too much from last night’s beer bash. We do this every year – the beer bash. This is our way of ending the fiscal year.

I also experienced this two years ago. Too much Vodka and Cuba Libre made my acidity reach its peak. I was even rushed to the hospital then because I thought I was having a heart attack, which turned out to be heartburn from acidity. I remembered the doctor telling me that I had reached almost the lethal level of alcohol in the blood so I was given alcohol detox to clean my blood. From then on I learned my lesson. Never again did I take alcoholic drinks with greater than 6% alcohol content.

For the other guys however, this is not the case. They seem to enjoy the overnight vomiting and the next day hangovers. They experience the same feeling every year yet they still continue to drink too much.  Oh well, they will never learn I guess.

Safety with health insurance quotes

fitness advice, health & society, health information, tips & tricks No Comments »

Your neighbor had an accident that almost got him, his wife and children their lives. Concerned about the safety of your family, you decided to get you and your family insured. The only problem is – where do you start?

Get health insurance quotes.

Collecting and reviewing health insurance quotes is one way to make sure that you are selected the best care that you can give you and your family. Of course, you don’t settle for the first insurance quote your friend will give you. You need to make sure that the health insurance you’re getting gives you the protection that you need and worth your money.

Before getting insurance quotes, review your and your family’s medical histories. Remember that the coverage and the cost of insurance depend on these. You don’t want having an insurance that doesn’t cover a specific treatment because you weren’t sure if your wife or your child had an ailment declared in your insurance.

Next, try to get as many insurance quotes as you can. Having three to four options would be ideal. This way, you get to compare and contrast the quotes and see what really best fits your family needs. Comparing and contrasting costs follow.

Care and safety – these are just two of the many aspects that compose the family. Make sure that you get these from your insurance!

Everything on us decrease as we increase our number of years of existence – we lose things that we value as we age. Like younger looking skin, energy level, sexual ability – name it. As we grow older, the way we look and feel go along with the number. However, many have been convinced of one solution: human growth hormones. In spray form.

Human growth hormones spray and pills increase your HGH levels, and who wouldn’t want that? However, HGH spray is said to show more effective results than HGH pills. According to resources, it increases HGH levels naturally.

Oral HGH spray is just like your regular breath freshener, only that the spray of course contains growth hormones. – You get to absorb the hormones faster, thus making the method more effective. You don’t need to worry yourself too much about waiting for the ingredients to be digested and circulated in your blood, with some ingredients being wasted on the process.

Some benefits are that HGH spray does not need prescription, so you can get yours without seeing a doctor, and that it is not as expensive as true artificial injectable HGH. Plus, it doesn’t contain harsh ingredients – it only boosts your body to produce more HGH.

Ready to look and feel younger? Spray on!

Still Mumbling About Pills

I heard a friend of mine mumble about lipozene. I actually found it amusing that she has time to find products like this on the internet. All I ever do here is blog and check my facebook account, sometimes look for decent artists whose CDs I could buy. I guess I live a pretty boring life! Hahahaha.

Being good is okay, but what matters to me is what’s within one’s self. I believe that if you’re a good person it’ll reflect outside, as well. :)

On a very unrelated side note: You should listen to Death Cab for Cutie! It soothes me. Such an amazing band… really. It calms me down whenever I’ve had a bad day, I hope it does the same to you.

As i have said before, always consult the physician whenever taking pills. My friend took my advice for granted, now she ended up in a hospital. I couldn’t really blame her for being so eager to lose weight. there just is so much pressure now because of the upcoming summer outing.Yesterday evening, she was rushed to the ER because she felt her heart palpitating. the doctors believe the palpitation was caused by diet pill side effects. she was worried about her condition herself, and she expressed her regret when i talked to her earlier.I was so sorry for her. She is a very good friend of mine and I wouldnt want anything to happen to her. her doctor said that she’ll be okay in a few weeks once the diet pill effect wear off but she still needs to be monitored every few weeks. I hope you readers may learn from my friend’s experience.

Helping to ADHD awareness

health & society, health information No Comments »

Everyone seems to be in a very enthusiastic mood. Christmas break is up so were back to work again, not that we really stopped working in the holidays right? Fortunately, the boss is still out, on vacation leave, and there are no tasks to do. So today is just a free day at the office: watching movies, wasting bandwidth an oh, chit-chat to catch up with colleagues.

Earlier me and my office friends went to have an early lunch in a nearby cafe. While we were eating, a young lady approached us wanting share some information regarding ADHD. I became curious, for I thought it was another of those “save the earth movement” by Greenpeace. We asked: “what is adhd ? The young lady gave us a leaflet about it. ADHD stands for Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, a psychiatric disorder affecting 3 to 5 percent of children all over the world. One of the main symptoms is hyperactivity which occurs when the child is alone. This case is similar to autism, although this is considered easier to manage.

We gave some cash donation to the young lady to help in their drive promoting awareness to ADHD. It’s the season of giving anyway so we fortunate peeps should share our blessings with others. After lunch, we went back to the office and shared the leaflets to others so they can take part in sharing the info to others.

On dark circles around the eyes

When I woke up this morning, I noticed that my eyebags looked a little larger than usual. I worried that I might be having allergies again from last night’s dinner. I get allergic reactions to some seafood causing my face and eyebags to swell but that is on rare occasions only.  To be sure, I went to my doctor for a checkup. Well my doctor said I don’t have to worry about allergies this time. She suspects that I am dehydrated because of the dark circles around my eyes. My eyebags just look swollen because of the dark outline around it. She suggested that lots of fluids, preferably natural fruit juices.

Dark circles around the eyes  can be caused by so many factors. Most common is hereditary of course, meaning you cannot do much about them (just blame your parents). Some other factors are dehydration, lack of sleep and long hours of PC work. Dark circles can also be symptoms of much more serious health problems like poor circulation, iron deficiency, anemia, or kidney problems. Some of the less serious causes can be remedied naturally by taking more fluids, and getting enough sleep. For the other factors, I suggest seeking medical advice.
