Our face reflects our health

Deepika PadukoneOur face is our fortune and the mirror of our soul. It reflects our moods, thoughts and general health. We knew about this all along and it’s so true. This interesting article from DailyMail elaborates just on that and is worth a read.

Excerpts:

* Your skin produces extra oil during daytime to protect it from temperature changes, dirt and micro-organisms, as well as oxidation caused by UV light and pollutants; while at night your skin 'breathes' to rid itself of waste as well as repair any damage.

Your face also reveals the state of the internal organs.

* A red, bulbous, greasy nose, possibly with prominent veins, may indicate high blood pressure, heart and liver disorders or excess alcohol consumption.

* Yellow skin can indicate disorders of the liver, spleen,

* A pale face may mean weak glands, congested and inactive liver and/or anaemia.

* Cracks at the corner of the mouth can show Vitamin B2 deficiency and digestive disorders.

    Stress, junk food and lack of sunlight will more then likely cause a break out, which isn’t going to boost your confidence. Take control, and use a cleansing mask as well as keeping up your usual skin care routine. Looking radiant will make you feel much better then being pale and pasty!

Aspirin for acne-prone skin

Aspirin , or acetylsalicylic acid is a salicylate drug, often used as an analgesic to relieve minor aches and pains , as an antipyretic to reduce fever , and as an anti-inflammatory medication. Aspirin's greatest benefit is reducing cardiovascular events including heart attacks and strokes. According to the American Heart Assoc. virtually all women are at risk of heart disease and doctors should more strongly consider prescribing a daily aspirin for their female patients.

When given to someone immediately after a heart attack, aspirin decreases death by 25%.
