Long Lengths

What is it about women and long nails? We adore them! Strong, healthy, long nails (well longer than our partners anyway!)

Well I'm going to share with you a tip that I've learnt, not intentionally - just by careful observation when I noticed my nails were growing particularly fast....

Cornflakes!! ...... Yes that's right, 2/3 bowls of cornflakes a day has a huge impact on the condition of your nails - I'm talking Growth Spurt...

I don't tend to eat cornflakes everyday in fact I go months without eating them and when my craving cycle comes back for wanting it, I notice this added benefit and it scores super highly in the natural beauty tips because of it!


Enjoy the Glorious Day ahead Beauties,
It's Good Friday - So be Good!

Feed Me Healthy

After reading 'Stylist' Magazine's article yesterday about junk food being significantly linked to the blues (as highly as 51%) - it prompted me to share this info with you also...

Some think the mind is a separate entity to the body, but in fact it's the exact opposite. As well as the thoughts or mind frame we adopt, the food we consume also affects our body. Research has shown that what we eat determines our mood and if you or someone around you doesn't feel their best a lot of the time or is suffering from depression a good long critical look at their/your diet is a must.

Lack of & Deficiencies in the following vitamins and nutrients have all been linked to depression or mental health:-

* Vitamin C - Depression
* B6 - Depression, poor memory, stress, irritability
* B3 - Depression, stress
* B12 Poor memory, confusion
* Folic Acid - Anxiety, depression
* Magnesium - Anxiety, depression, irritability, stress, insomnia
* Omega3 - Depression, poor memory

So let's have a look at the foods that eliminate the problem and can provide optimal health ;- 

*Oranges and Strawberries - Provides vitamin C
*Chicken, Salmon, Tuna - Provides B12 & Omega 3
*Natural yogurts, Eggs - Proves B12
*Spinach - Provides Folic Acid
*Peppers - Provides B6, B3, vitamin C and Magnesium
*Broccoli - Provides B3, B6 & Magnesium
*Porridge - Provides B3 & B6
*Brown Rice - Provides B3 & B6

So next time we are at the supermarket, let's really think about what we are putting into our trolley, not only those who may be a little blue, all of us ... fatty foods and processed foods are danger signs for our body. Nutrition is the way forward - Fabulous minds and fabulous bodies ;-)
