Vitamin C - The Beauty Vitamin

The Beauty of Vitamin C - Eat Your Way to Healthy Skin

Vitamin C is one of those amazing “beauty vitamins.”  Vitamin C helps to support healthy skin by building protein used in the skin’s fibers.  By strengthening the skins natural fibers, called collagen, fine lines and wrinkles may become less apparent.     

The wonderful antioxidants that you hear about all the time are abundant in Vitamin C.  These antioxidants minimize the damaging effects of the sun on your delicate skin by trapping free radicals.  

Vitamin C is also reported to minimize the appearance of acne and shrink pore size.  Improvements in skin texture have also been reported with increased intake of Vitamin C.

So reach for your citrus fruits like oranges and grapefruit.  You will not know but you also get a nice dose of Vitamin C from spinach, tomatoes, peppers and potatoes.

Do your best to get Vitamin C directly from food sources instead of supplements.  That way you will get the “real” thing plus dozens of other essential vitamins and minerals.

Eating your way to beauty - good for your skin and good for your overall health - it’s a win-win for you!

New Store

There's a new store coming you way. I am switching over to a new platform so look for an all new and updated website in about one week!

Are you on a runaway boat?

Where are you going on your summer vacation? What will you do with your time off?

Are you aware that while you are away, your life is rushing forward like a runaway boat with no one in the driver's seat?

Do you realize that you are living by default? If you deal with problems as they arise then you are merely reacting to your world - not shaping it.

If you change your routine only when some factor beyond your control forces you to change it then you are again, not the one who is in control of your life.

Take control this 4th of July weekend

Fourth of July weekend

What will you do with it?

• yard work
  
• go see fireworks
  
• go to a picnic

I challenge you to stop living “by default” and make a plan this weekend for how you are going to reach the lifestyle you dream about.  I will give you a free “fill in the blank” plan that will get you started in just 5 minutes.


I was reading an article this morning and the writer mentioned that Hallmark was holding an event to unveil this year’s Christmas ornament in a few days.  I thought, holy cow!  I just threw out my receipts from last Christmas the other day.  What do you mean stores are already gearing up for another season?


Where has this year gone?  It is already half over!
