Woman Drinks 3 Litres Of Water Every Day And The Results Are Shocking!


42 year old, Sarah Smith is a British mother of two who was suffering from migraines. The suggested cure by her doctor, turned out to be the secret to her youth fountain. The doctor suggested she stops taking caffeine and increase her water intake. The picture on the left shows Sarah as an average 42 year old. During this time she was always sluggish and suffered from constant migraines. The picture on the right shows her as a woman in her low to mid thirties. The fountain of our youth is clearly right within our reach.

After four weeks: Sarah looks like a different woman


The amount of water she drank drastically made a change to her appearance. Her daily routine was normal during the photo on the left. “Usually I start my day with a cup of tea, then I might have a glass of water with my lunch and one with dinner - that's about a litre of liquid in 24 hours. It feels like plenty, but apparently it's not nearly enough.” She said in an article on Daily Mail.

What’s the Difference Between Tisane and Tea?

A tisane (or ptisan) is any herbal infusion other than from the leaves of the tea bush (Camellia sinensis). The English word “tisane” originated from the Greek word πτισάνη (ptisanē), a drink made from pearl barley.

 

Tisanes are made with fresh or dried flowers, leaves, stems, seeds or roots, generally by pouring hot (not boiling water) over the plant parts and letting them steep for about 10 minutes. Tough stems, seeds and roots must be boiled on a stove after being mashed. The tisane is then strained, sweetened if so desired, and served.
Some products labeled as “herbal teas” are true tisanes and some are not. Some “herbal teas” do not contain leaves from the tea bush and are therefore true tisanes. Why they are called “herbal teas” when they contain no tea I couldn’t say and is misleading. The only commonality tisanes and teas share is their preparation for drinking and this could be where the cross-over occurred. Other mixtures labeled as “herbal teas” do contain leaves from the tea bush and have been combined with herbal plant materials, hence the addition of “herbal” before the word “tea,” so be sure to check the ingredients. Real tea contains caffeine and if you are limiting your caffeine intake, knowing whether you are consuming a tisane or tea is important.
Many blends of real tea are prepared by adding other plants to an actual tea (black, oolong, green, or white tea); for example, the popular Earl Grey tea is black tea with bergamot added, Jasmine tea is Chinese tea with Jasmine included, and Genmaicha is green tea combined with roasted rice. Such preparations are varieties of tea, not tisanes.

Make Your Own Detox Drink

Watermelon/cucumber, lemon/lime, mint leaves, and water.


Watermelon (or cucumber): Watermelon helps the body flush out toxins because it contains the organic compound citrulline, which is an amino acid that has been shown to help the liver and kidneys filter and get rid of ammonia. 


Water: H2O is just plain good for us, but it’s thought that it helps flush nasty toxins and waste through our system, giving organs like the liver and kidney an easier time doing their job.


Lemon (or lime): Lemon or lime juice helps stimulate and regulate the digestive track (which is why it’s so helpful with constipation, heartburn and gas), stimulates bile production, and thins out bile, which allows it to flow more freely. 


Mint leaves: Mint leaves are a nice refreshing flavor to add to your drink. On top of that, it can help you digest more effectively, improving the flow of bile from the liver, to the gallbladder, to the small intestine, where it breaks down dietary fats. Mint also helps relax cramped up stomach muscles.

Things Every Woman Needs to Do for Her Skin:

Double Up on Fruits and Vegetables
Eating the right amount of fruits and vegetables can give you a healthy, vital glow. 
Either you eat them or make a Fruity Water with them. 






Do This Only Twice a Day
Most women wash their face three to four times a day, says Emmy Graber, MD
a dermatologist and assistant professor of dermatology at the Boston University School of Medicine, 
but studies show that twice a day is optimal. The more you wash, the more likely you are to 
strip your skin of natural oils. 




Totally Worry About Sunscreen...
...even when you think you're protected by clothing.





Choose the Least-Popular Sleep Position
Only 14 percent of Americans sleep on their back—even though it's the best way 
to prevent sleep wrinkles.
Sleeping on the side or on the stomach (done by 63 percent and 16 percent of us, respectively) 
has been shown to cause wrinkles on the parts of the face pressed into the pillow





Stay Hydrated ! 
When the temperatures rise, getting enough to drink is important 
whether you’re playing sports, traveling or just sitting in the sun.

What's a Raw Vegan Diet ?

A raw foods diet consists of unprocessed raw vegan foods that have not been heated above 115 degrees Fahrenheit (46 degrees Celsius). "Raw foodists" believe that foods cooked above this temperature have lost their enzymes and thus a significant amount of their nutritional value and are harmful to the body, whereas uncooked foods provide living enzymes and proper nutrition. Proponents of a raw food diet claim that there are many benefits to eating raw foods, including weight loss, more energy, clear skin, improved digestion and improved overall health. Many people clarify that they eat a "high raw" or a certain percentage of raw foods in their diet, such as "75% raw diet" or a "90% raw diet".

21 Days To Make A Habit.




No one is entirely sure where the 21-day rule originates, but it seems to have first been set forth in a book called "Psycho-Cybernetics." It's a self-help book first published in the 1970s, and in it, you find out you can create or break a habit in just 21 days. In 1983, for instance, a woman chronicled her efforts to start flossing and stop criticizing in a piece for "Reader's Digest." The article was called "Three Weeks to a Better Me."

But does it really work for everyone, or are these just the experiences of a couple of individuals?
The reality is, habits are easier to make than they are to break. If you repeat a behavior often enough, those synaptic pathways are going to get worn in. The human brain is a very adaptive piece of machinery. But does that take 21 days? Who knows? Everyone's brain is different, and habit formation also relies on aspects of experience and personality.
Give it a try, try making a habit to drink water, here is a printable form for you to make it easier:




5 EASY WAYS TO WAKE UP HAPPY



1. WAKE UP TO SUNSHINE

When you wake up to sun pouring through your windows, your body is signaled to stop its flow 

of melatonin, a hormone that makes you sleepy.


2. DON’T SNOOZE

Apparently, our brains know all about the snooze button, so when you are in your morning tussle with your alarm, your brain won’t put you back in a deep, restful sleep — it knows that you will have to get up in a few minutes.


3. PUT ON MUSIC

Putting on good music will put you in a good mood in the mornings for obvious reasons, and if it’s upbeat, it will help you stay awake. Be careful about setting your favorite song as your alarm though — you might end up hating it. 


4. DRINK WATER

Drinking water when you get up is a great way to provide energy by making up for the fluids your body lost while you were asleep. Because everything your body does requires water, when your body is dehydrated it has to work harder, which can make you feel even more tired.


5. POWER DOWN BEFORE BED

Turn all of your screens off an hour before bed. Because TVs, computers, and iPads are all stimulators, it can be hard for your brain to wind down for sleep right after you use them. You’ll have to decide for yourself if the benefit of this outweighs the joys of falling asleep watching Netflix.

Is it cleaner? Sometimes, sometimes not: in many ways, bottled water is less regulated than tap


  Is it tastier? In taste tests across the country, people consistently choose tap over bottled water.



THE STORY OF BOTTLED WATER





kitchen? Bottled water costs about 2000 times more than tap water.
Can you imagine paying 2000 times the price of anything else? How about a $10,000 sandwich? Yet people in the U.S. buy more than half a billion bottles of water every week. That’s enough to circle the globe more than 5 times. How did this come to be? Well it all goes back to how our materials economy works and one of its key drivers which is known as manufactured demand.

If companies want to keep growing, they have to keep selling more and more stuff. In the 1970's giant soft drink companies got worried as their growth projections started to level off.
There’s only so much soda a person can drink. Plus it wouldn’t be long before people began realizing that soda is not that healthy and turned back to drinking tap water. 
Well, the companies found their next big idea in a silly designer product that most people laughed at as a passing yuppie fad. Water is free, people said back then, what will they sell us next, air? So how do you get people to buy this fringe product? Simple: You manufacture demand. How do you do that? Well, imagine you’re in charge of a bottled water company. 
Since people aren’t lining up to trade their hard earned money for your unnecessary product, you make them feel scared and insecure if they don’t have it. And that’s exactly what the bottled water industry did. One of their first marketing tactics was to scare people about tap water, with ads like Fiji’s Cleveland campaign. They’re trashing the environment all along the product’s life cycle. Exactly how is that environmentally responsible? 
The problems start here with extraction and production where oil is used to make water bottles. 

Each year, making the plastic water bottles used in the U.S. takes enough oil and energy to fuel a million cars.
All that energy spent to make the bottle even more to ship it around the planet and then we drink it in about 2 minutes? That brings us to the big problem at the other end of the life cycle – disposal.  




It’s time we took back the tap. 


That starts with making a personal commitment to not buy or drink bottled water unless the water in your community is truly unhealthy. Yes, it takes a bit of foresight to grab a reusable bottle on the way out, but I think we can handle it.  We know better now. 




Protect your wallet, protect your health, protect your planet.
