Chemical-Free Skin Health

Chemical-Free Skin Health Review

This is a perspective on the chemical world we live in and why I believe all of us should be concerned for our lives, the lives of our families, friends and the animals that share our lives. It is not intended to scare you, although it might. It is really to draw attention to what our lives have become and the chemicals, companies and products that rule it. Our skin is our largest and most vulnerable organ. Love it and it will love you. Protect it and it will protect you. Abuse it and it will shorten your life. There have been more chemicals developed in the last twenty years than in all of mankind. Of the thousands of chemicals in use in the cosmetic, personal care and household products industry, less than 1% have been tested for safety. A few years ago I read that more than 60% of Americans claim to have a skin disorder. Connection? Probably! There are no US Government regulations for cosmetics or skin care products

Written by a Westerner for the Western mind, here is the first book to explore in light of modern science the balanced and comprehensive system of health care used by Chinese physicians, martial artists, and meditators for over 5,000 years.

Drawing on original Chinese sources and years of personal experience, the author introduces the philosophy of Tao and gives detailed, practical information on:

• diet and nutrition, including sample menus
• food combining, and detoxifying the body
• specific foods and juices as treatments for a wide range of diseases (including such modern Western concerns as hypertension, cancer, infertility, herpes, and AIDS)
• fasting and excretion
• breathing exercises
• physical exercises for long life, total relaxation, and general health
• acupuncture and massage techniques
• Taoist birth control
• sex therapy
• bedroom arts and techniques to ensure complete satisfaction for both partners (considered essential for good health and long life)
• herbal aphrodisiacs and other sexual aids
• meditation -- turning essence into energy and energy into spirit

With many helpful charts and clear illustrations, The Tao of Health, Sex and Longevity makes the ancient "Way" easily accessible to those seeking the latest in New Age health care.

My Dog's Health (My Dog's Health Book 1)

My Dog's Health (My Dog's Health Book 1) Review

I have provided this information so that you can read, learn and use it to make the most of the very precious time you have as your dog goes through life and the changes that this brings... Sometimes illnesses in dogs and puppies are very minor and may not need medical treatment. You may have read or been advised about a home remedy that has been used by a friend to cure your dog's upset stomach or 24 hour stomach virus.

For that reason I have listed the odd home remedy & alternative treatments. But please remember, our number one concern is your dog or puppy, so please, if you have any concerns or medical questions, or just some advice to ease your worries take your dog or puppy to the vet.

Now sit back, relax and enjoy my book..
