AloeVera Toothpaste vs Normal Toothpaste

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

The guys at AloeDent have brought out an amazing product which breaks through the science of oral hygiene.

The guys there have looked closely at normal toothpaste, which contains a percentage of water with no beneficial function and replaced it with soothing Aloe Vera juice, which is combined with a powerful blend of carefully selected natural, active ingredients creating a truly exceptional natual toothpaste.

regular brushing with AloeDent gives you front line support in the fight against gum disease and dental decay … naturally … and still leaves your mouth feeling tinglingly fresh.

it’s also our number 1 selling product.

Green Tea & Weight Loss

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

 
Green tea may also help you lose weight acording to ealry tests done on lab mice.
the overweight mice were given a trail run of green tea as part of their diet.

early results showed:

  • Less weight and fat gain
  • Less fat in the liver.
  • Lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

A healthy liver isn’t fatty. But obesity - in mice or in people - can lead to fatty buildup in the liver and cause nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

The University of Connecticut’s Richard Bruno, PhD, RD, and colleagues report their findings in February’s edition of The Journal of Nutrition.

Vitamin D good for you?

Vitamin D 

At last a US study has shown that a low level of vitamin D is linked to a in increased risk of heart disease! Which is great news for anyone who suffers from stress and high blood pressure.

A lack of vitamin D is already known to cause weakened bones and has also been linked to multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Vitamin D mostly comes from being outside in the sunshine, which if you live in the UK means you might not get that much.
