HONEY for my CANKER SORE

July 29, 2012 19 Comments
I cannot eat properly I am having a canker sore for 5 days now and it is a big problem to me.


Canker sores are reddish, painful and shallow lesions that develop in the mouth. They are also referred to as mouth ulcers. The common areas for the occurrence of canker sores are inside of lips, back of tongue, base of the gums and inside of the cheeks. At times, the lesions are covered with a whitish surface. 


Mouth Sore - July 25

Canker sores are NOT contagious.  Sores that last 3 weeks or longer.  


The cause of canker sores is not clear, but may be related to:
  • A weakness in your immune system (for example, from the cold or flu)
  • Hormone changes
  • Stress
  • Lack of certain vitamins and minerals in the diet, including vitamin B12 or folate

My mom advised me to put honey to my sore as a remedy. 


Usage of honey for treatment of canker sores has been followed for a long time. 


Apply honey over the sores 2-3 times daily by using a cotton swab, in order to combat pain.






Honey...yes honey from a bee! 


There are several easy remedies you can use at home to take care of and cure canker sores. However, it is important for you to know that if you have been suffering from canker sores for more than a month, it is wiser to get them checked out by a doctor. This is because you do not want to end up with complications that will worsen your situation. In order to cleanse your sores out of any infectious fluids, you can rinse out your mouth with a mix of equal parts of hydrogen peroxide and water. This will also sanitize your mouth. One of the easiest ways to get rid of canker sores is to put a teaspoon of honey and run it all around each and every corner and crevice of your mouth. Honey is an extremely soothing substance; especially for skin that has become sore. It also has healing properties that can actually help you out. Alternatively, you can also do the same thing with glycerin. The only thing is that you would have to spit the glycerin out after a point, whereas you swallow the honey. You can also make a paste of turmeric powder and rose water and apply this to any particular sore. This will help to heal it and will also provide cooling relief, which will be brought on by the rose water. You must also make it a point to have hot milk to which half a teaspoon of turmeric powder has been added every night. This will also help your body to heal from within. Milk cream in which a few strands of saffron have been soaked overnight can also be applied to your sore. This will help to heal it as well. Used and chilled tea bags are also considered to be particularly useful in taking care of canker sores.
While you are suffering from canker sores, there are some foods you must avoid. This is particularly important if you are suffering from open sores. You may irritate your sores and worsen your situation otherwise. Try not to have excessively hot fluids or food. Avoid spicy food and substances that are rich in caffeine. Try not to eat hard foods as well. Eat less salt, which will be of great help with any burning you may be experiencing. Try to eat more of ice creams and yogurt. The yogurt has live bacteria which will help to fight off your infection.

STEM CELL TECHNOLOGY: Vanity or Cure

July 22, 2012 2 Comments
Last night I watched THE BOTTOMLINE by Boy Abunda.  Very interesting topic STEM CELL TECHNOLOGY: Vanity or Cure?


The Bottomline by BOY ABUNDA



What used to be science fiction is now science fact, and stem cell technology is making it happen.  Imagine replacing a damaged or diseased heart with one that has been fashioned out of human tissue and custom-fitted according to specifications.


According to Dr. Samuel Bernal, head of the IPMM, said “stems cells are those cells that are the origin of all the other cells in the body” and “normally provide the repair mechanism of injury.”  Oh well, that is why others are using it for vanity to help rejuvenate their old cells and to have young and youthful skin.


“If your kidney got damaged, you can get stem cells to form kidney tissues,”


It is important, however, that these treatments which are fast evolving should have a firm scientific basis, in order to ensure safety and gives the most effective outcomes so that people will know, THE COMMON TAO well know that it is not purely for VANITY but to help CURE what is being damaged.


Our Government should do something about this because Stem cell technology is complex and requires specialized personnel and equipment and others are doing it just to gain money.  As I saw last night on the show even small SARI-SARI Store sells STEM CELL Products because we still don't have a law prohibiting them to do such act.


This new discovery we have now will ease the burden of people who are suffering from kidney and cancer victims.  Hope we will use it to cure and not for vanity.

Makeup Tricks: Making Your Face Look Slimmer

July 06, 2012 0 Comments

Some people envy those who seem to have a defined jaw line and a thin-looking face. However, there’s no need to be jealous, because you can create the illusion of a slimmer face with the right makeup application technique. By following the tips outlined below, you can effectively use makeup to thin out the appearance of your face.

Creating a shadow under your chin and jaw line can give the rest of your face definition and a slimmer appearance. Professional photographers commonly use a shadow to define certain facial features and to hide features that are not so appealing. Makeup works pretty much the same way in that if you have a double chin or an undefined jaw line, creating a shadow will make your double chin seem to disappear and your jaw line to look more prominent.
You may think that blush is only to be used on your cheeks, but you can also enhance your jaw line by creating a shadow with a light dusting of blush just below your jaw and underneath your chin. This technique, by itself, will make your face look thinner. It is important to note that you should blend the blush in well and not apply any blush to your neck area. Cream blush works much better than powder blush, but either will do the trick.

If you’d like to make your face appear thinner but don’t have any blush on hand, then use lipstick instead. You need only apply a hint of lipstick under your jaw to create a shadowed look that minimizes the shape of your face.

Your face will also look thinner and less puffy if you get enough sleep each night. In order to avoid a bloated appearance, you should try to get at least seven to eight hours of sleep each night.

Also, you can slim your face down by consuming plenty of water each day.

This can flush out all of the bad toxins from your body and help to reduce any facial puffiness that you may notice.

Another useful tip for slimming your face is to shape your eyebrows so that they are neat and natural in appearance.
Just follow instructions here on how to shape and shaping your eyebrows

If you have a full, round face, then grooming your eyebrows properly will help to balance your face out and make it appear thinner. Eyebrows that are either too heavy and bushy or plucked out and drawn on with a liner pencil only serve to emphasize the natural roundness of your face.
I follow these steps and I love it!

From this


Shaving
These days is optional, a lot of ladies love men who have a five oclock shadow, but if your facial hair is unkempt you would be better to take the razor to it and be clean shaven for your night out.
Nails
Manicured nails look great on anyone, but you don't have to break the bank to get yourself a good manicure, your mother and your sister, if you have one, have been doing their own nails for years and I am sure that they will gladly help you and offer you advice on nail care,ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ASK.
To enhance your well manicured nails a spot of clear nail polish or varnish will help them to stand out.
SKIN
Anti-aging creams work just as well on men as they do on women but they can leave your face with an unmasculine shine if you use these creams you should also purchase a couple of cosmetics to take the shine from your face a concealer and or a light foundation powder or cream.
Skin Cleansing
Cleaning your face with an apricot scrub gets rid of dead skin particles and leaves your facial skin feeling smoother and looking great it can also help prevent black heads and white heads.
Cosmetics
Choose any cosmetics carefully, although in reality there is no reason for a man to wear lipsticks, eye shadow, blushers or any of the many different cosmetics available, they can be used to enhance your best facial features, the best way to go about applying cosmetics is to seek out an expert who will show you how. If applied correctly Cosmetics can enhance your appearance but applied incorrectly they can leave you with an efeminate appearance which sends out the wrong signals.

Regardless of your hair type, it is important to use a shampoo that is gentle on your hair. Ingredients such as vitamin E are great for naturally strengthening and conditioning the hair follicles. Don't be fooled by super fragrant shampoos, either. Be sure to read the labels, as these types of products can contain artificial ingredients that don't do much for your hair.
Hot oil treatments also leave your hair with a great natural looking shine.
