Vitamin C Part Of Your Everyday Life

 Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) has an irreplaceable role in safeguarding the health of people, longer life expectancy, slows the aging process and maintain the required level of the mental and physical condition.

  Therefore, it is necessary to constantly feed our body with Vitamin C every day.

  Unlike animals, humans are not able to synthesize ascorbic acid in the body, so we have to enter it through food. For a complete resorption of Vitamin C in the digestive tract also zinc has a major role. By providing a sufficient amount of vitamin C, many metabolic functions in which he is participating will run smoothly, and health will remain preserved. 

 He helps with colds in a way that helps in relieving the symptoms. With his strong antioxidant activity protects the cells from the devastating effects of free radicals.

  Vitamin C also prevents the formation of dangerous compounds, so called nitrosamines that occur in the stomach and intestines with decomposition of the food and their constant presence can lead to cancer.

  Significantly is the role that vitamin C along with zinc plays in the synthesis of collagen, which is an integral part of the skin, bones, tendons, cartilages, teeth and blood vessels. 

 

  Acts against high concentrations of cholesterol in the blood, and also enhance the efficiency of the immune system. Is effective in the prevention of various viral and bacterial infections. Helps relieve the effects of many substances that cause allergies.

  Should be entered at a dose sufficient to meet the daily needs and it is not necessary to import additional doses.It is important to emphasize that vitamin C does not need to be fed through supplements if you are healthy and have a healthy body, supplements will not hurt you, but it is completely useless. Vitamin C is best when the source that contains it is the fully natural...... therefore we recommend:

Take vitamin C through vegetables

Take vitamin C through fruits

 
Vitamin C does not tolerate high temperatures, so you don’t have to add it to hot dishes and drinks

 
Do not forget your daily dose, of natural source of course
 
Use nature to stay healthy

More about My Children's and Teen Yoga Classes

I am fortunate that I have been asked to teach children's yoga at a couple of local schools and now at the Central Library in downtown San Diego. If you are an elementary school, preschool, un-schooling group, home school group, daycare center, girl scout troupe, middle school, high school, or a family with children from 2-7, 8-13 or 14+, please call me to discuss how we can create a yoga class to suit their needs!

For younger children my style incorporates music, books, and crafts into yoga-oriented play, where I help them learn how to energize and calm with breath. We learn about the Big Three B's - body, brain and breathing - and how using them in unison creates YOGA. One of the favorite and most fun classes is where the children get the opportunity to "teach" demonstrating, vocalizing, and assisting their peers. I have seen them discover, to their own delight, how very capable, focused and good they are in this role, whatever their physical ability level. I believe the skills developed in practicing yoga can be translated into being a better a family member, classmate, student, sibling, athlete - whatever the child experiences!

For middle schools and high school young adults the focus is a little more like a conventional yoga class but scaled to suit the ability levels and limits/strengths of still growing bodies and minds. We do many grounding poses to help create a sense of stability and security, balance poses to improve coordination and stimulate brain development, twists and bends to strengthen and stretch and learn about complex body movements, and of course inversions because they are not only fun but help us to see the world from another perspective! I use props to bring poses within reach without strain and add support and security. Discussion of the eight limbs of yoga as they apply to secular living (health/cleanliness, non judging, non harming, continuing education and more) are blended with breathing exercises, uplifing music, and positive affirmations to round out the body/brain/breath experience. Whatever their ability level, from the more sedentary to the vigorous athlete, all teens can benefit from a yoga practice to help them also become more self aware and a better person.

Premature Skin Aging – The Main Causes

  What is certain is that most women literally will shudder when they hear the word " aging ". While we try with all kinds of cosmetic products to stop the appearance of wrinkles and keep our youthfulness, we don’t see that sometimes we ourselves are the main perpetrators for their occurrence. The main causes of premature aging of our skin are hidden in our daily bad habits.

Poor and inadequate nutrition

 

  Besides it’s a bad influence on our health, certainly affects the acceleration of the aging process of our skin. If we only eat unhealthy food, and under that is primarily related to the fatty, fried foods and sweets, we supply the body with harmful substances. By changing our eating habits, taking as many fruits, vegetables, grains, our skin regenerates and rejuvenates and slows down the aging process and the appearance of wrinkle.

Smoking

 

  I do not think only on active but also on passive smoking. Every inhaling of smoke in indoors is very harmful for the skin. Smoke from cigarettes enters the pores and not only causes wrinkles, but also dry out the skin. It also reduces the amount of vitamin C in the skin, which is very important for maintenance of the youthful skin look.

Lack of physical activity

  Physical activity is extremely important for the body. In this way, we establish proper circulation , which is necessary for the discharge of harmful substances from the body. This is essential if we want our skin to look healthy and fresh.

Improper application of creams 

 

  Believe it or not, if the face cream is applied with the wrong moves, you can provoke the emergence or intensification of wrinkles, dark circles and skin greasiness. 

 

Alcohol

  If you have a problem with redness of the skin or cracked capillaries, which are also signs of skin aging, think about how often you consume alcohol. When consuming alcohol comes increased blood flow that causes this unpleasant appearance of the skin.

Lack of sleep

  One of the major causes of aging. Nothing is more essential in the fight against aging of the skin and wrinkles like a nice, calm dream. On average, every adult person should sleep about eight hours a day. If you consistently not sleep enough, comes not only to fatigue, but also to the appearance of wrinkles and dark circles around your eyes. Many women try to sleep on their back, in order not to get wrinkles. Recent research has shown that it does not reflect the real basics.

Ceramides- They make up about 20 % of the entire extra cellular structure of the skin. They cling cells like glue and help the skin to retain its fresh look. When the skin is damaged by the sun, when is dry or irritated by care products, ceramides are reduced and the skin is then more sensitive and vulnerable. It is therefore necessary to replace ceramides because they protect the skin and help her to look younger.

Linoleic acid- These fatty acids keep the skin's appearance as they filled her inter-cellular space. It "speaks" to the skin cells how to function healthier. It helps in reducing inflammation and it is believed to be a key factor in how skin ages.
