Sis Got A Problem

This is quite personal but I just want to share it to you because I think it might help. This happened to my sister in the Philippines last December 2009. She was having a constipation that time. For some consequences, it resulted to hemorrhoid. She was very afraid as it happened and immediately consulted the doctor. If you have the same problem right now, you better click here to learn more about it and its treatment. Be sure to also consult the doctor like what my sister did. She was given an immediate prescription for medicine and used a special cream to cure it. Before I go back here in Europe, she told that everything is fine now. We have to take care of our body to avoid sickness and diseases.

Shopping in Mall of Asia in Manila

I am here again. I need to share a picture during our 4 days Manila trip. I did not really expect to visit the capital city of the Philippines but since I found a cheap ticket on the same day as my sister flew to Manila last January 12, 2009 for her flight to the US the next day, I decided to accompany her. One of the sights we visited was Mall of Asia in Manila. We also did some shopping but I forgot to look for anti aging product. Am I really getting old or I just need to on diet to lose weight and look slimmer. How I wish to bring back my younger days..wink! I wish to share more pictures next time. Have a great afternoon especially to all friends from the Philippines.

Having Sleepless Nights

Have you experience having sleepless nights when you are away from your home or love ones? Have you experience having sleepless nights when some things are bothering you like problems? Most of the times experiencing sleepless nights can be very dangerous to our health. I just found out that there is a so-called best over the counter sleep aid to help us fall asleep during the night. I also want to advice that you better consult your doctor first before taking any medicine. I need to go to our doctor once I am back in Europe next month. I always wish all of you a peaceful sleep. Stay happy and worry-free all the time!

Strength of a Man, Beauty of a Woman

It's afternoon now in our place. I am finally sitting in front of my computer. I was very busy this morning during some errands. I have to go the bank for some transaction, dropped a mail in the post office, started cleaning my car to get ready for the inspection of the renewal of its registration on Friday. I am still not done cleaning it because the rain start dropping. I decided to go inside the house and cook for lunch. I am happy because I had eaten my simple but delicious lunch.

As I opened my mailbox, I read about the forwarded email of my sister from Las Vegas. I decided to post it in this site to share this beautiful words about the true beauty of a man and woman..seems interesting but these are truly wonderful words...here it is!
I hope that we are trying to keep the real beauty in us! I always try! Have a wonderful day to all!

Strength of a Man

The strength of a man isn't seen in the width of his shoulders.
It is seen in the width of his arms that encircle you.
The strength of a man isn't in the deep tone of his voice.
It is in the gentle words he whispers..
The strength of a man isn't how many buddies he has.
It is how good a buddy he is with his kids.
The strength of a man isn't in how respected he is at work.
It is in how respected he is at home.
The strength of a man isn't in how hard he hits..
It is in how tender he touches.
The strength of a man isn't how many women he's Loved by.
It is in can he be true to one woman.
The strength of a man isn't in the weight he can lift.
It is in the burdens he can understand and overcome.

Beauty of a Woman

The beauty of a woman
Is not in the clothes she wears,
The figure she carries,
Or the way she combs her hair.
The beauty of a woman
Must be seen from her eyes,
Because that is the doorway to her heart,
The place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman
Is not in a facial mole,
But true beauty in a woman
Is reflected in her soul.
It is the caring that she lovingly gives,
The passion that she shows,
The beauty of a woman
With passing years-only grows.

Lucky is the man who is the first love of a woman,
but luckier is the woman who is the last love of a man.

What Really happened Last Thursday

Another morning is almost breaking! How was your weekend guys? I hope you had a great one! So far weekend for me was very better and quite relaxing! and what really happened last Thursday? I had a terrible migraine attack again! It started around early afternoon. It became worst around late afternoon that I vomited a lot and lost most of my energy. I took some pain relievers but it didn't help. I just felt so very very tired that time. Around in the evening last Thursday, after some sleep I felt better again. I was so hungry after vomiting in the afternoon. I told my husband to drive me in the nearest fast food restaurant because I want to taste and eat some food. We drove to Parsberg then. I was praying that the pain will subside and totally gone when I wake up the next day.

Friday morning, around seven, I felt very bad again. My head was so heavy and pounding with pain. I said to myself, this is not good anymore. I guess I need an injection that time. Our house doctor is still not open that time and nobody will drive me to the doctor. I can't drive also with such terrible pain in my head. I took this time a migraine tablet and went back to sleep. I just ate a banana to have something in my stomach before I took the migraine tablet. After I took the tablet, I felt weak that my arms and legs can't move anymore. It was truly a bad feeling. I don't know what happened then because I fall asleep already.

After some hours of sleep, I woke-up around 10:30 am. I was thankful that I felt better already. I even went to the bank to pick-up some money. I was not feeling totally fine last Friday afternoon but very better compared to Thursday. Yesterday, I felt very very better that I did update some of my blogs. Today I had a great day with my husband as we went walking for some kilometers in our place. I just always hope and pray that migraine will never attack me anymore. I guess, that's all for now! Time to go to bed! have a blessed week ahead! take care everyone! wish to share some pictures tomorrow from our walking today!

Make That Face Look More Beautiful

Here is a health and beauty tip especially for women. Do you usually wear make-up when you go out from your home? Do you know how to wear the right make-up for the right occasion? Here is a beauty tip on how to make look your face more beautiful!

"When applying makeup, draw attention to one part of your face: either your eyes or your lips. Wearing large amounts of lipstick and eyeshadow at the same time divides the focus and isn't very flattering. Pick one to accentuate and tone down the other."

Another tip for today, if you want to lose extra pounds, take a look at liporexall review, it might help. See you again tomorrow!

How About a Beauty Tip This Weekend

I guess most women have problem fixing their hair especially if they are in a hurry. I got the same problem sometimes. I have a very long hair until below my waist line. What I do sometimes is to pull my chop sticks and twist and clip it...very easy! here's a weekend beauty tip of what what you can do more with your hair..

Quick Hair Tip

If you can't get your hair to "do its thing" in the morning, invest in some hair clips and decorative sticks. It only takes a minute to twist your hair back and clip it into place, and the right hair accessories can still make your 'do look sophisticated. Use a bit of hairspray if you're worried about fly-aways.

Absence in the Blogosphere due to Migraine

Do you have a Migraine? if none, never ever dream from this kind of sickness. It is a terrible one, I tell you. I had again a Migraine last Thursday night until yesterday. I am feeling better last night. Thanks goodness! Now I am kickin' again in the blogosphere..not that much but I am happy to see you here again. Last Friday my migraine went worst because I vomited three times and I felt so tired the whole day. It was really terrible that I want to stay all the time in a dark room with my eyes closed and I don't want to hear any noise even talking to my husband. I want completely a noise-free and light-free environment.

When migraine attacks me, the pain is always in the left side of my head including my left eye. When it is very bad, I always feel that my left eye want to come out. Sometimes after I vomit, I felt better..sometimes not. When it is not too bad, I am only taking pain killers like Ibuprofen before it get worst. Sometimes it works sometimes not. When this happened, I am forced to take migraine tablets but sometimes it also doesn't work. The best remedy when I am totally run out of energy is to have an injection in our house doctor.

I can't give you an exact cause for a migraine, my doctor can't even explained it to me. I had already undergone CT scan twice and I am happy that they found nothing in it. Is it because of hormonal problems, changing of weather? I can tell you sometimes when I smell cigarette smokes, my migraine triggers or when I have my monthly visitor. To give you some information about migraine, I consulted my dear friend online, Wikipedia...so have fun reading! Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

What is Migraine?

Migraine is a neurological syndrome characterized by altered bodily perceptions, headaches, and nausea. Physiologically, the migraine headache is a neurological condition more common to women than to men. Etymologically, the French word migraine derives from the Greek hemicrania (half skull) and the Old English megrim (severe headache).

The typical migraine headache is unilateral and pulsating, lasting from 4 to 72 hours; symptoms include nausea, vomiting, photophobia (increased sensitivity to bright light), and hyperacusis (increased sensitivity to noise); approximately one third of people who suffer migraine headache perceive an aura — visual, olfactory — announcing the headache.

(featuring Initial treatment is with analgesics for the head-ache, an anti-emetic for the nausea, and the avoidance of triggering conditions. The cause of migraine headache is unknown; the accepted theory is a disorder of the serotonergic control system, as PET scan has demonstrated the aura coincides with diffusion of cortical depression consequent to increased blood flow (up to 300% greater than baseline). There are migraine headache variants, some originate in the brainstemintercellular transport dysfunction of calcium and potassium ions) and some are genetically disposed. Studies of twins indicate a 60 to 65 per cent genetic influence upon their developing propensity to migraine headache. Moreover, fluctuating hormone levels indicate a migraine relation: 75 percent of adult patients are women, although migraine affects approximately equal numbers of prepubescent boys and girls; propensity to migraine headache is known to disappear during pregnancy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Migraine

Are You Wasting Money on Multivitamins?

I guess this is a good start for the week. I just got this post in the Bulletin Board Posted by one of my friends in friendsters. Thanks a lot Merz for sharing this. This only serves as General Information. ...Continue to read if you want to know more. Who knows this might cause you to save some money and avoiding the side effects of taking vitamins...Have a great day to all!!

Subject: Multivitamins....a waste??? Important , pls. read...
Message: Are You Wasting Money on Multivitamins?

Advertisements with tantalizing promises of improved health, prevention of cancer and heart disease, and greater energy have lured millions of Americans to spend billions of dollars on the purchase of multivitamins.

An article in the February 9 issue of Archives of Internal Medicine reported that multivitamin use did not protect the 161,808 postmenopausal women enrolled in the Women's Health Initiative Study from common forms of cancer, heart attacks, or strokes. And the numbers of deaths during the 8 years of the study were the same in vitamin users as in non-users. Still, it is important to recognize that this was an observational study, not a more meaningful clinical trial. Although these findings apply only to women, other studies have failed to show benefits of multivitamins in older men.

These results are not at all surprising for several reasons. No large study has shown that multivitamins significantly benefit healthy men and women. In addition, for some years physicians prescribed folic acid and vitamins B12 and B6 in the hopes of preventing heart attacks and strokes by lowering blood levels of homocysteine. (High blood levels of homocysteine are associated with an increased risk of coronary and other vascular diseases.) A number of recent studies, however, have shown that, while these vitamins do lower homocysteine levels, they do not prevent heart attacks or strokes.

Many doctors have also prescribed the antioxidants vitamin E and beta-carotene to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Alas, studies have now proven that these supplements are not protective--and may even be harmful.

No one denies that an adequate intake of vitamins is essential; however, vitamins can and should be obtained from eating enough healthy foods rather than from swallowing vitamin supplements.
Then what about vitamins being a great source of energy? Some multivitamin ads do indeed claim that their supplements boost energy; and some professional athletes gobble handfuls of vitamin pills to increase their energy and strength. But researchers proved long ago that energy comes from calories, not vitamins. The highly touted cholesterol-lowering effects of substances added to some multivitamin supplements? Still unproven.

All this is not to say that specific vitamins supplements are never desirable. Vitamins can be valuable in certain situations:

* Folic acid supplements in women who are pregnant or plan to become pregnant can help to prevent serious neural-tube defects that affect the baby's brain and spine.
* Supplements that contain more vitamin D and calcium than is present in regular multivitamin pills can help older men, and especially women, avoid osteoporosis and bone fractures.
* Supplements of vitamins C and E, beta-carotene, zinc, and copper may slow the progression of vision loss in people with early macular degeneration.
And multivitamins are beneficial for some entire groups of people:
* those on a very-low-calorie weight-loss diet
* strict vegetarians
* heavy alcohol drinkers
* individuals who are not getting an adequate diet because they are too sick or too poor--or live by themselves and are unable to prepare proper meals for themselves
I also agree with a comment made by one of the coauthors of the Archives of Internal Medicine article about postmenopausal women mentioned above. An 8-year follow-up period may not be long enough to show that multivitamins protect against cancers that take many years to develop.
All the same, the results of the studies on vitamins so far point to one conclusion: Healthy people who eat enough calories from a varied diet do not benefit from multivitamin supplements.

Avoid Static Cling

Are you having a static cling? I am having this all the times. I remember when I was in Las Vegas last year wherein I always got static clings. I don't know if it is because I always walked on carpeted floors in the hotels there. I even feel bad about it sometimes especially when I draw near to metals and I feel like having an electric shock!! shocking huh!! see this tip below..hope this will help!!

To fight off static cling, keep a dryer sheet in your purse and rub it on the underside of your skirt or pantyhose.

Where's My Sunglass

I am back! I got another busy day today. I am finally finished with my sewing. I also went extra grocery shopping for New Year's party. Actually I am already done with grocery shopping last Saturday but since another gathering will be held, I have to go again to buy some stuffs. Today was a sunny but very freezing cold winter day. The sun was really shining so brightly. On my way to Parsberg, where I normally go grocery shopping every week, I was blinded by the rays of the sun. It was really painful to the eyes. Thanks goodness that I always have sunglasses in my car. In fact, I have three sunglasses inside my car. See how sunglasses or eyeglasses can truly help you!

I love sunglasses. I am just thankful that I still have very good eyes. But sometimes, it is aching especially when I stay too long in front of my pc. I don't know exactly what kind of eyeglasses I need. I am planning to visit my eye doctor next year again. Talking about eyeglasses, I found very nice and trendy ones online. Zenni Optical simply have amazing designs and styles. I love one of their Holiday frames especially the Full rim Frame with Sparkling Crystal. The best thing with this, is that you can have it for as low as $8.00. This is the cheapest one that I saw online. With the aching economy and financial crisis now, why would you have the expensive one when you can have it for a very low and affordable price. Not only that, you can have a variety of styles and designs to choose from. I know you also want the stylish and modern ones......just like me!! get one now before New year comes!! I wish you a happy and safe new year too!! have fun!!

Look Beautiful During A Christmas Party

As we all know there are a lot of parties going on on or before Christmas. It might be a Christmas party with your colleagues, family, friends, groups or simply a party in your home. Last night I should attend a Filipino Party in Neumarkt but due to some sort of migraine attack, I chose to stay home. I don't want to drive with migraine anyway. This topic now is especially for women...sorry guys! Do you always look beautiful when you go to a party? Are you using Natural Skin Care products when applying make-ups?

After I talked to a friend yesterday, she told me not to stay too much in front of the mirror doing my make-up. I told her I will try but I just want to always look at least presentable when going to a party. I thought my migraine will be gone in the afternoon so that I can attend the party. Pity for me! I always wanted to use Natural Skin Care Products to always keep my face and skin healthy, natural and of course beautiful..like the picture in my header...wink! Oh yes, that was me!

I always tried to look for Organic Skin Care Products. I already know that this kind of products are really good. The problem is that I don't know the exact brand. I finally found it now. Astara Skin Care are also use by famous individuals like Liv Tyler, Daniel Craig, Karolina Kurkova, Mel Gibson and a lot more. I don't mean that I want to be like them. I just wanted to maintain my healthy and beautiful skin as possible. I have to visit again this site for more details. Lastly, I should look beautiful and presentable in the Christmas party on Thursday!! I am quite excited already!! Merry Christmas and stay always beautiful girls!!

Cool News from Italy

This is quite cool. How about women from different countries? would you do the same? I don't have problem with this one because my husband don't burn money with fireworks. Think about it now!! Do you think it is the best solution? happy New year in advance!!

Women's ultimatum: Sex or fireworks


NAPLES, Italy (UPI) -- A group of more than 40 women in Naples, Italy, said they will withhold sex if their husbands or boyfriends set off fireworks during the holiday season.

Dr. Vincenzo Sorrentino said the idea for the committee of women pledging to withhold sex came after years of injuries and deaths resulting from Christmastime fireworks, ANSA reported Friday.

"We've tried everything to stop the mayhem caused by fireworks but we've never reached the results we hoped for," Sorrentino said. "We decided to get women involved because they are more convincing and they always achieve their goals."

Carolina Staiano, 42, the head of the women's committee, said her own father was seriously injured years ago by exploding fireworks.

"So far we've had more than 30 women join up and we're hoping for more," she said Friday. "We're fed up with these stupid annual massacres. This time they're just going to have to choose: sex or fireworks."

Genetic basis for some birth defects found

I guess, this is a good info for all women out there especially to all Mother!! keep reading to find it out!! have a great day!!

Genetic basis for some birth defects found

Copyright 2008 by United Press International
arcamax.com


CLEVELAND (UPI) -- U.S. medical researchers report they have determined the genetic basis for some birth defects that affect the development of the heart and head.

A multidisciplinary team led by Case Western Reserve University Professor Gary Landreth discovered a common genetic pathway for a number of birth defects such as abnormal development of the jaw, palate and brain.

The researchers said they developed a mouse model of the disorders by removing a gene, ERK2, responsible for the pathway. The scientists, in collaboration with Dr. William Snider at the University of North Carolina, discovered the mice missing the gene for ERK2 in neural crest cells had developmental defects resembling those of human patients with a deletion that includes that gene.

Landreth, with Case Western Associate Professor Michiko Watanabe, found the mouse hearts had characteristic defects resembling those seen in the patients with ERK2 deletions.

"Given Dr. Watanabe's findings, we determined that we had in fact developed animal models that mimicked the human deletion syndrome," said Landreth. "This work sheds light on how these developmental errors occur."

The research that included Dr. Sulagna Saitta at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia appears in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science.
