Pregnancy Power Foods

These healthy choices have the nutrients that you and your growing baby need.

1.Broccoli

It's not only packed with nutrients that are necessary for a healthy pregnancy -- such as calcium and folate -- but broccoli is also rich in fiber and disease-fighting antioxidants. And since it contains plenty of vitamin C, this popular green vegetable will help your body absorb iron when it's eaten with an iron-rich food, such as whole wheat pasta or brown rice.

2.Fortified Breakfast Cereal

You knew folate was important before conception and during your first few weeks of pregnancy, but your needs for the B vitamin stay high the whole nine months. Experts advise getting 400 micrograms per day through vitamin supplements or fortified foods (breakfast cereal is an easy way to do it, since many brands contain 400 micrograms per bowl), and another 200 micrograms through foods that are naturally high in folate, such as asparagus and black-eyed peas.

3.Dried Beans & Lentils

All women need 10 extra grams of protein a day during pregnancy (for a total of at least 60 grams); beans and lentils are an excellent source, with about 15 grams per cup. They're also high in fiber, which helps to combat constipation. And 1 cup of cooked lentils meets half of your daily folate requirement. Add them to rice dishes and salads.

4.Nonfat Milk


Your body absorbs roughly twice as much calcium from foods while you're pregnant, so your daily needs remain the same. But since most of us get too little calcium to begin with, drinking more nonfat milk is a smart move. Each 8-ounce glass supplies about 30 percent of the recommended dietary allowance of 1,000 milligrams.

5.Bananas

Bananas are rich in potassium and offer quick energy to fight off pregnancy fatigue. "They're also easy on your stomach if you're nauseated," says O'Rourke. Slice them up into cereal or whip one into a breakfast smoothie with yogurt, berries, ice, and a splash of orange juice.

Natural Remedies

  1. A mixture of a teaspoon each of honey, milk powder and lemon juice plus 1/2 teaspoon of almond oil should be applied on the face. Leave it for 10-15 minutes before washing it off. This will make the skin lighter and make it shine.
  2. To get lighter skin, apply a paste of ground fresh mint leaves on the skin. Leave it for 20 minutes before washing it with cold water. Do this for 15 days.
  3. If you think you are starting to have wrinkles under the eyes, apply egg white on the skin under the eyes. Wash it after a few minutes.
  4. Eat slowly to digest the food better and to avoid eating more than your body needs.
  5. This is very basic yet many fail to do it. Drink 8 glasses of water a day to make you healthy and to help lose weight.

Head - To -Toe : Beauty Tip a Day # 1

  1. Chewing unripe guava or its leaves cures bad breath. Drinking vegetable and fruit juices also help treat bad breath.
  2.  A lot of people think that eating only twice a day can make them slimmer. Actually, it is better to have 4-5 mini meals a day with 2-3 hours intervals than have 2 big meals only.
  3.  Give Mud Therapy a Try! It detoxifies the joints in your body, releases stress, and revitalizes your skin.
  4.  Don't wash your hair immediately before you add colour because you'll strip away the natural oils that will keep your hair hydrated during the colouring process. 
  5.  Selecting the right toner can make pores appear smaller and ebb oil production in t-zone hot spots. Natural skin toners will balance your skin and leave it with a prickly feeling .
  6.  Green is very versatile and looks good on almost any redhead - the lighter the shade of your hair, the lighter the green you should go for. Warmer greens suit warmer omplexions.

How to choose the face creams/moisturizer that suits your skin

Everyone of one of us wants a super glowing and bright face,for which we try out different cleansers,creams,scrubs and toner.The basic daily care for skin involves the selection of a perfect face cream or moisturiser.Both face cream and moisturiser serves the same purpose but the difference between a face cream and a moisturizer. Face creams are thicker in texture than the moisturizers and contain more nourishing ingredients that repair and condition the skin. In other words face creams not only keep the skin well-hydrated but they also nourish and replenish it. Moisturizers also do a great work but their main aim is to moisturize the skin. Both moisturizers and face creams help retain moisture in the skin and boost its ability to protect itself from the environmental irritants.Here are a few tips to guide you to select the right cream for your face/skin.
  •  Never use heavy creams or moisturizers around the eyes as these could irritate your eyes.
  •  The better the quality of your cream the more protection from dryness it will give you.

Burt's Bees Radiance Body Lotion with Royal Jelly.

Burt's Bees Radiance Body Lotion with Royal Jelly is a nice body lotion with pleasant fragnance.The skin shimmers when lotion is applied because of the mica particles and we feel the cooling sensation of the royal jelly.The product states that it 99% natural which i find to be too good on sensitive skin and its cool.When exposed to the sun,skin shines brightly.Its also nice as a dialy facial moisturizer.It can be worn alone or with makeup it blends so evenly ,giving a fine shimmery finish.
Overall this product serves its purposes as moisturizing lotion and enhancing the skin tone but a bit shimmery which adds a grand look which is not suitable for normal wear .Just leave a comment if you have experienced this product.
