10 Things Every Girl Should Know That School Won’t Teach You
1.) The importance of rest: I firmly believe in all of my subbies’ abilities to achieve their wildest dreams – but it’s important that you are leaving enough time in the day to give your body (and brain) some rest. We should all channel our inner Superwoman when it comes to pursuing our passions, but if you’re always doing a million things a day – even if they’re all enjoyable – eventually, you will burn out. A lot of people learn this the hard way, so take my advice now and give your body the break it deserves. Whether it’s a pampering day at the spa, a night in with the girlfriends or just an effort to actually get 8 hours of sleep (it’s harder than it sounds!), giving your body time to rest and recharge is what will help you keep doing what you love in the long run.
2.) Credit card checklist: A lot of people attribute post-college life with financial freedom. And with that financial freedom comes one very appealing perk: credit cards. But before you go dashing off to the nearest bank, make sure to ask yourself three questions (I call it the “credit card checklist”): 1.) Do I have a steady source of income? 2.) Have I been responsible with my money in the past? 3.) Will I be able to stay under the monthly credit limit? If you answered yes to all three of these questions, then you are set to apply for a credit card. A lot of banks will target new graduates, so make sure you are really ready for the responsibility!
3.) Know your needs: Know what makes you happy – then don’t be afraid to ask for it. Whether it’s in the workplace, in your relationships, or any other part of your life, standing up for yourself is something you should never be afraid to do. A lot of people may avoid it because they are afraid it will make them appear selfish or demanding, but in the end, you are in charge of your own happiness. Don’t be afraid to ask for what you deserve!
4.) Friendships take effort: Friendships can feel so easy in school; after all, you see each other in class everyday. Unfortunately, that isn’t the way it always is. As we grow up, our lives get filled with new things – and sometimes before we know it, those effortless friendships have faded into the background in the blink of an eye. If I’ve learned anything, it’s that even the best friendships require effort to keep the bond strong. And just because they take some work doesn’t mean they’re not worth holding onto! So don’t forget to call up your friends on the weekends or set up a weekly dinner date.
5.) Focus inwards, not outwards: One of the biggest pitfalls you can encounter in life is to constantly compare yourself to those around you. It’s okay – we all fall into that trap every once and awhile. The thing is, comparing yourself will never make you happy – and that’s a life lesson that it takes some people years to learn! Instead of focusing on those around you, turn the focus inwards. Find out what makes you happy and focus on doing that. Don’t be afraid to relish all of your own victories, from the big to the small.
6.) Take risks: Just because something scares you doesn’t mean it can’t be the best thing that’s ever happened to you. Taking risks in your life can have huge pay-offs. And even if they don’t always go the way you’d like, I’ve always believed that I would rather have experienced it than be left wondering “what if?” The next time an opportunity comes knocking, take it – some of the best things in life only happen when you leave what’s comfortable and take a leap of faith.
7.) Travel: Nothing opens your eyes and refreshes your spirit as much as travel. I don’t know if it’s the change of scenery or the ability to experience a different culture, but traveling always puts things in perspective. It makes you realize that the world is so much bigger than just you! I’m not saying that everyone has to go on an expensive trip to another continent; in fact, simply going on a weekend road trip to a different city can be a breath of fresh air. I highly recommend that everyone take at least one trip outside his or her city – it will forever change the way you view the world.
8.) Avoid gossip: Almost every girl has gossiped before – but that doesn’t mean it’s okay to keep doing it. Gossip may seem harmless and fun at first, but it can easily turn into an ugly tool that can hurt feelings, tear apart friends and ruin relationships. Don’t underestimate the power of words. Next time you feel the urge the gossip, picture how you would feel if you were the other person overhearing what you were about to say. If you can’t say it in front of the person you are talking about, don’t say it at all!
9.) Appreciate the little things: Sometimes we get so caught up in the crazy whirlwind of life that we lose sight of what’s important. I find that taking a step back and appreciating the little pleasures that often go unnoticed – from the smell of fresh coffee in the morning to the way the city glistens after a thunderstorm – always helps me refocus. Think of the way little kids get so excited about the simplest things that we usually take for granted. The world is a beautiful, exciting place – let’s spend more time focusing on that than worrying about things out of our control.
10.) You are stronger than you know: No matter what life throws your way, no matter how many times your heart gets broken, no matter how many disappointments you experience, know this: you are stronger than you know. Time heals all wounds, and no matter how down you may feel, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel. You will emerge from every low period in your life with a lesson learned and a better understanding of yourself. So let yourself cry – but after awhile, let yourself heal. You might be surprised at your own strength.
Yoga stretch for poor posture
This stretch is a combination of the backbend half moon and the forward fold good posture poses. Performing this daily will help correct any slouching or curving of the upper back, and be invigorating as well!
1 Start by standing with your feet hip width apart and perfectly parallel to each other (you may feel slightly pigeon-toed). Grab a towel in your hands with a comfortable distance between them. This is a bit of a dance with your breath, so each movement couples with a deep inhale or exhale.
2 Slowly inhaling, swing your straight arms above your head, keeping the towel taut and your shoulders down.
3 Exhale while you bend back as far as you can, arching your back and lifting your chin. Don’t crunch the back of your neck or your lower back, and keep your arms straight.
4 Inhale and come back upright, and bring your hands behind your buttocks, holding on to the towel and keeping your arms straight.
5 Exhale, bend forward, swinging your arms up perpendicular to your back. You can bend your knees slightly here, but keep your arms straight and the towel taut.
Come back to your initial standing position with an inhale. Take a breath and repeat 2 to 4 more times.

＜我是女人＞
1、女人再穷，也要去旅行！ 脑袋决定你的口袋。口袋里的自由，决定你一生的自由和幸福，决定你的心态和脸上的笑容。
2、女人，永远不要让任何一个男人成为你生命的全部，或主导你的人生。要懂得对男人投入越多，可能失去的越多的道理。
3、女人，不要为任何男人放弃自己的个性。其实，并不是你迁就他，就可以让他觉得你多好。恰恰相反，男人更喜欢有自己个性的女人。
4、女人，千万不可以为了爱情放弃自己的事业。很简单，选择爱情，一旦爱情没有了,你就什么都没有了。选择事业，即使爱情没有了，你还有本事赚钱养活自己，还有属于自己独立的生活。
5、女人，不要在你的爱情遭遇第三者时，一味地妥协、原谅。要知道，有些事，可以原谅，但有些事是绝对不能原谅！有些事，即使原谅也是一辈子的伤痕。
6、女人，不要在发现你的爱情已经没有爱了的时候，还固执的坚持。有时候，放手,不光是给他自由，也是给自己一条新的生路。
7、女人，不要认为谁离开谁，就活不下去。谁离开，照样活。要知道，你的生命来自父母，除他们之外，没有任何人值得你为其付出生命的代价。而你的父母，只会希望你快乐平安！
8、女人，不要把你所有的钱都投资在男人身上。女人，该对自己好点，要舍得为自己花钱，舍得为自己投资，舍得对自己好！
9、女人，不要为任何人打扮自己，或把自己搞得不修边幅。要每天都把自己装扮的干干净净，漂漂亮亮。美丽，只为自己！
10、女人，不要总是用眼泪去打动、去挽留男人。有时侯，你的眼泪恰恰适得其反。微笑，一定要自信地微笑，薇微笑着面对一切!
11、女人，不要看低自己。每个人都有自己的优秀，他不懂珍惜，就找懂珍惜你的；他不会欣赏，就找欣赏你的；错过这一站，只因为最好的那个在下一站等你。
12、女人～能靠谁呢？单身，靠父母；婚后，靠另一半！又或许谁都不可靠！因为，人心会随着时间、地点、条件而发生改变！ 所以，女人该懂得：靠山，山会倒；靠水，水会流；靠人，人会变；靠谁，也不如靠己！
为自己的青春买单、为自己的幸福买单！

How to Deal with Jealousy in a Relationship
#15 Remember They're With YOU
The difference between you and that person you’re jealous of? You get to be with your partner and the other person won’t! Remember that you have the advantage and enjoy your relationship instead of letting your day get spoiled.
#14 Make Feelings Known
If you’re feeling a little jealous, let your partner know. If you feel like a certain coworker or friend is getting way too close for comfort, talk it out with your partner in a calm way. Chances are they had no idea that person was even bothering you.

#14 Make Feelings Known
If you’re feeling a little jealous, let your partner know. If you feel like a certain coworker or friend is getting way too close for comfort, talk it out with your partner in a calm way. Chances are they had no idea that person was even bothering you.
#13 Don't Get Mad Jealousy and anger often go hand in hand. Unfortunately, a bad temper can really turn up the heat on jealous feelings and insecurity. It will cloud your mind and cause you to say or do things that you regret if you’re not careful.
#12 Channel it Into Something Positive
Jealousy is not necessarily a bad thing. It’s okay to care so much for someone that you want them to yourself. Just remember to channel it into something positive like a reminder that you are lucky to be with them instead of a threat.

Jealousy is not necessarily a bad thing. It’s okay to care so much for someone that you want them to yourself. Just remember to channel it into something positive like a reminder that you are lucky to be with them instead of a threat.
#11 Don't Get Possessive One of our natural instincts is to get possessive of the things (or in this case, people) that we love. This may work with an object but your partner is a living, breathing person with feelings of their own. They deserve your love and respect but being possessive and demanding of them is rude and painful.
#10 Understand How it Affects Others Any time a strong emotion is involved, it usually changes the way we behave. You may become more cynical or find yourself saying things you don’t mean. If you’ve noticed that you keep having a negative effect on other people (especially the ones who may be close to your partner) understand that your problem may need some fixing.
#9 Be Confident
One of the biggest causes of jealousy is fear that you’re not good enough. Don’t let your self-esteem change the way you approach your relationship. If you’re feeling insecure about your appearance then get active about taking better care of yourself and doing what you can to be the best you. However if it’s something deeper, this is an issue you may need to take more time to work through.
#8 Don't Make Comparisons You would never compare your partner to someone else in a negative light so why do it to yourself? There will always be someone better looking, stronger, smarter, faster, younger, richer or more talented than you but that does not discredit anything you have to offer the world. Our differences are what make us special and your partner is with you because they know just how special you really are.
#7 Don't Make Demands Sometimes this feeling can get the best of us and we say things that will only make it worse. It’s important to be open and honest with your partner but remember to do so in love and with patience. If your partner has been spending time with someone you’re not comfortable with, don’t demand that they end communication with the person. Work out respectful ways that will ease your fears and keep everyone happy.
#6 Understand the Consequences
There are consequences to jealousy in a relationship. Often times, it results in a lack of trust. Jealousy can damage a relationship beyond repair if you are not careful so make sure you’re not risking your relationship just because of your own doubts.

#5 Get Help to Let it Go You are not going to help your relationship any by letting this become an issue. It will not be easy to let go of these feelings, especially if they’ve been caused by problems in past relationships, but you must. Get the help of a friend or loved one to talk through your insecurities and learn when to let it go.
#4 See How They Feel
Your partner may be just as jealous of the way you are around other people. Talk to them and ask them if they are comfortable with everyone you choose to spend time with. Compromise and talk through the insecurities you both may be feeling. The result will be a healthier, happier relationship.
#3 Don't Spy or Snoop
Most couples willingly share most things, but you both still need to respect each other’s space. Don’t ever go through your partners things without their permission. They deserve your trust so if you find yourself wanting to snoop, you need to reevaluate why.
#2 Get Professional Help
If jealousy is becoming a serious issue in your relationship, you owe it to your partner and yourself to do something about it. Try to attend couples therapy if your partner is willing to. If not as a couple, at least try to see a therapist yourself so you can work through whatever it is that is preventing you from having a healthy relationship.
#1 Find the Roots
Did your last partner cheat on you? Maybe you have had your share of painful relationships in the past. Whatever it is that is making you so irrational, you owe it to yourself and your partner to figure out what is causing the jealousy and how to repair it.

13、【山药红枣羹】
女人补气血必备~每个月的那几天还可以加些红糖哟。
①将山药洗净，晾干，然后去皮，切成小块。
②将红枣洗净,装碗备用。
③将山药、冰糖一起倒进锅里放入水，煮30分钟，如果喜欢吃绵软的可以多煮会。
④等到山药煮的差不多时把红枣放到锅里再煮上10--15分钟,就OK啦！
14、【月经后吃什么】
每次月经都会使血液的主要成份血浆蛋白、铁、钾、钙、镁等丢失。因此，在月经干净后1-5日内，应补充蛋白质、 矿物质及补血的食品。
选用既有美容又有补血作用的食品，如牛奶 、鸡蛋、鸽蛋、鹌鹑蛋、牛肉、羊肉、芡实、菠菜、桂圆肉、胡萝卜、苹果、荔枝肉、樱桃等。
15、女性来月经时，小肚子又凉又疼，说明腹部有寒，同时嘴里还长口疮，这叫【上火下寒】。
这时可以用到橘核（即橘子籽），橘核有理气、温胃、止痛的作用，既能驱寒，又能止痛。建议用橘核沏茶。
16、【女人不穿胸罩老得更快】
随着年龄的增加和雌激素分泌变化，乳房会变得更易摇晃，若不戴文胸来固定支撑，就会加速乳房的晃动，导致下垂。但如果文胸选用不当，效果就会适得其反。坚持佩戴文胸否则到了60岁，乳腺腺体几乎退化“消失”，乳房会像“皮囊”一样，即使再戴文胸，也很难支撑起来。
17、【保养乳房的5类营养食物】
①补充脂肪：鱼、肉和豆制品。
②补充水分：每天坚持饮用8杯水。
③补充胶原蛋白：肉皮（包括鸡、鸭、鹅皮）、蹄筋、鸡鸭爪、鸡翅及甲鱼。
④多吃鱼类和海产品：泥鳅、带鱼、鱿鱼、牡蛎及海带等。
⑤补充钙和维生素：卷心菜、粗粮、牛乳、牛肉。
18、【消除经前乳房胀痛的小技巧】
①改变饮食习惯。
②经常按摩乳房。
③穿稳固的胸罩。
④避免利尿剂。
⑤不吃咸。
⑥试用热敷。
⑦防止肥胖。
⑧用蓖麻油敷胸。
⑨摄取维生素。
⑩远离咖啡。
☆切忌滥用药。
19、【女性常穿高跟鞋或导致不孕】
女性穿高跟鞋的时候身体前倾，全身重量会过多地集中压在前脚掌上，可能造成平足症、痉挛性足痛或趾骨骨折；穿高跟鞋时，骨盆会随着身体倾斜而倾斜，久而久之会使骨盆腔位移，容易引起子宫位前倾，造成月经失调、性欲下降甚至不孕。
20、生姜红枣水冲鸡蛋绒，早上空腹喝，能驱寒暖胃、修复胃黏膜。受寒严重时三片生姜，不严重是2片，5.2如果是用来保健1片生姜就可以了，红枣同样是根据个头来6~10个。加水大火烧开后改小火15分钟，把鸡蛋放碗里搅拌均匀，用滚开的水去冲鸡蛋。
21、【能调阴阳又去斑的补血汤】
例假结束后的第一周期间服用。这个时间段重点是滋阴养血，因为例假期血损失较大。推荐食疗方：熟地6g，制首乌9g，当归3g，炒白芍3g，阿胶6g，龙眼肉3颗，羊腔骨1节。煲汤喝。少放盐少放调料。一周2－3次。
22、【尿路感染的特效穴】
出现尿路感染症状时，马上拇指按揉对侧足内踝尖与足跟尖连线中点处的水泉穴（两侧皆有），哪个刺痛就按揉哪个，大钟穴的位置在足内踝尖与跟腱连线的中点偏下方的骨头上缘。按揉痛点5分钟，当穴位的疼痛缓解时，尿路感染症状可减轻或消失。
23、【经期不宜食哪些寒凉食物？】
大家可能都知道冷饮不能吃，其实还有些寒性的食物也要注意哦：如黄瓜，丝瓜，茄子，冬瓜，蟹，田螺，海带，竹笋，梨子，柚子，西瓜等。可以多吃的：花生，核桃，大枣，桂圆，玫瑰花茶等。
24、【对女人有益的五种怪味食物】
①榴莲—缓解痛经（性热，活血散寒，改善腹部寒凉）。
②大蒜—亮泽秀发（强抗菌作用，抗乳腺癌、卵巢癌，乌发）。
③香菜—预防骨质疏松（保护骨骼，抗癌）。
④芥末—使面色红润（调解内分泌，刺激血液循环）。
⑤香椿—助孕（抗衰老，补阳滋阴，清热利湿）。
25、【女性肾虚症状】
①早上起床常有头发掉落。
②体重有明显的增加或下降。

④进食甚少。

26、【敷肚脐也能治痛经】
痛经的女生，月经前一周在肚脐上敷药，行经时就不会那么痛了。
配方：肉桂、小茴香、干姜、元胡、五灵脂、生蒲黄、没药、赤芍各6克，研细末，放密封瓶里。用时洗净肚脐，取适量药末，醋调敷，纱布覆盖，胶布固定。两天换药一次，经前用3次。这种方法最适合寒凝血瘀的痛经。
27、 【红糖食疗法】
红糖性温、味甘、入脾，具有益气补血、健脾暖胃、缓中止痛、活血化淤的作用。
①红糖煮荷包蛋，可以使鸡蛋和红糖的营养互补，令面色红润，有精神。
②红糖泡桂圆干，可改善睡眠。
③红糖泡人参，可调理气息，改善低血压。
④生姜红糖水：治疗风寒感冒，缓解寒淤血淤型的痛经。

7、【女性长期吃辣，喝冰饮，容易患上妇科肿瘤】
吃辣时不停地灌冰水危害更大，冰水下肚，血液马上会淤积在肠道和盆腔里，易致痛经、月经紊乱，子宫还会缩小、变硬，易形成腺肌症等妇科肿瘤，大大提高不孕的几率。重的是，盆腔淤血引起的不孕，做B超、妇科检查等发现不了，男士们请转给你的挚爱！
8、【让她远离乳腺增生】
①适时婚育哺乳。
②夫妻生活和睦、生活规律。
③心情舒畅（情绪不稳定会抑制排卵，雌激素增高）。
④避免使用含雌激素的面霜和药物。
⑤积极防治月经紊乱、附件炎等妇科疾病。
⑥每半年或1年做一次乳腺B超检查。
9、【来例假如何养生？】

12、【十种女人最易得乳腺癌】
①乳腺增生多年不愈。
②反复做人工流产手术，
③常用激素类药品或化妆品，
④有乳腺癌家族史，
⑤未哺乳或哺乳过长，
⑥肥胖或过多摄入脂肪，
⑦精神抑郁，经常生气，心情不好，
⑧反复长期接触各种放射线，
⑨独身未育或婚后不育，
⑩13岁前月经初潮或绝经晚。
13、【山药红枣羹】
女人补气血必备~每个月的那几天还可以加些红糖哟。
①将山药洗净，晾干，然后去皮，切成小块。
②将红枣洗净,装碗备用。
③将山药、冰糖一起倒进锅里放入水，煮30分钟，如果喜欢吃绵软的可以多煮会。
④等到山药煮的差不多时把红枣放到锅里再煮上10--15分钟,就OK啦！
14、【月经后吃什么】
每次月经都会使血液的主要成份血浆蛋白、铁、钾、钙、镁等丢失。因此，在月经干净后1-5日内，应补充蛋白质、 矿物质及补血的食品。
选用既有美容又有补血作用的食品，如牛奶 、鸡蛋、鸽蛋、鹌鹑蛋、牛肉、羊肉、芡实、菠菜、桂圆肉、胡萝卜、苹果、荔枝肉、樱桃等。
15、女性来月经时，小肚子又凉又疼，说明腹部有寒，同时嘴里还长口疮，这叫【上火下寒】。
这时可以用到橘核（即橘子籽），橘核有理气、温胃、止痛的作用，既能驱寒，又能止痛。建议用橘核沏茶。
16、【女人不穿胸罩老得更快】
随着年龄的增加和雌激素分泌变化，乳房会变得更易摇晃，若不戴文胸来固定支撑，就会加速乳房的晃动，导致下垂。但如果文胸选用不当，效果就会适得其反。坚持佩戴文胸否则到了60岁，乳腺腺体几乎退化“消失”，乳房会像“皮囊”一样，即使再戴文胸，也很难支撑起来。
17、【保养乳房的5类营养食物】
①补充脂肪：鱼、肉和豆制品。
②补充水分：每天坚持饮用8杯水。
③补充胶原蛋白：肉皮（包括鸡、鸭、鹅皮）、蹄筋、鸡鸭爪、鸡翅及甲鱼。

18、【消除经前乳房胀痛的小技巧】
①改变饮食习惯。
②经常按摩乳房。
③穿稳固的胸罩。
④避免利尿剂。
⑤不吃咸。
⑥试用热敷。
⑦防止肥胖。
⑧用蓖麻油敷胸。
⑨摄取维生素。
⑩远离咖啡。
☆切忌滥用药。
19、【女性常穿高跟鞋或导致不孕】
女性穿高跟鞋的时候身体前倾，全身重量会过多地集中压在前脚掌上，可能造成平足症、痉挛性足痛或趾骨骨折；穿高跟鞋时，骨盆会随着身体倾斜而倾斜，久而久之会使骨盆腔位移，容易引起子宫位前倾，造成月经失调、性欲下降甚至不孕。
20、生姜红枣水冲鸡蛋绒，早上空腹喝，能驱寒暖胃、修复胃黏膜。受寒严重时三片生姜，不严重是2片，5.2如果是用来保健1片生姜就可以了，红枣同样是根据个头来6~10个。加水大火烧开后改小火15分钟，把鸡蛋放碗里搅拌均匀，用滚开的水去冲鸡蛋。
21、【能调阴阳又去斑的补血汤】
例假结束后的第一周期间服用。这个时间段重点是滋阴养血，因为例假期血损失较大。推荐食疗方：熟地6g，制首乌9g，当归3g，炒白芍3g，阿胶6g，龙眼肉3颗，羊腔骨1节。煲汤喝。少放盐少放调料。一周2－3次。
22、【尿路感染的特效穴】
出现尿路感染症状时，马上拇指按揉对侧足内踝尖与足跟尖连线中点处的水泉穴（两侧皆有），哪个刺痛就按揉哪个，大钟穴的位置在足内踝尖与跟腱连线的中点偏下方的骨头上缘。按揉痛点5分钟，当穴位的疼痛缓解时，尿路感染症状可减轻或消失。
23、【经期不宜食哪些寒凉食物？】
大家可能都知道冷饮不能吃，其实还有些寒性的食物也要注意哦：如黄瓜，丝瓜，茄子，冬瓜，蟹，田螺，海带，竹笋，梨子，柚子，西瓜等。可以多吃的：花生，核桃，大枣，桂圆，玫瑰花茶等。
24、【对女人有益的五种怪味食物】
①榴莲—缓解痛经（性热，活血散寒，改善腹部寒凉）。
②大蒜—亮泽秀发（强抗菌作用，抗乳腺癌、卵巢癌，乌发）。
③香菜—预防骨质疏松（保护骨骼，抗癌）。
④芥末—使面色红润（调解内分泌，刺激血液循环）。
⑤香椿—助孕（抗衰老，补阳滋阴，清热利湿）。
25、【女性肾虚症状】
①早上起床常有头发掉落。
②体重有明显的增加或下降。
③记忆力下降。
④进食甚少。
⑤晚上常睡不着。
⑥尿频现象。
⑦生理需求下降。
⑧工作情绪始终无法高涨。
⑨工作一小时后，身体怠倦。
⑩乳房松弛。
☆皮肤干燥，出现斑纹。
★月经不调。
26、【敷肚脐也能治痛经】
痛经的女生，月经前一周在肚脐上敷药，行经时就不会那么痛了。
配方：肉桂、小茴香、干姜、元胡、五灵脂、生蒲黄、没药、赤芍各6克，研细末，放密封瓶里。用时洗净肚脐，取适量药末，醋调敷，纱布覆盖，胶布固定。两天换药一次，经前用3次。这种方法最适合寒凝血瘀的痛经。
27、 【红糖食疗法】
红糖性温、味甘、入脾，具有益气补血、健脾暖胃、缓中止痛、活血化淤的作用。
①红糖煮荷包蛋，可以使鸡蛋和红糖的营养互补，令面色红润，有精神。
②红糖泡桂圆干，可改善睡眠。
③红糖泡人参，可调理气息，改善低血压。
④生姜红糖水：治疗风寒感冒，缓解寒淤血淤型的痛经。
28、 【艾叶生姜，治疗外阴瘙痒】
难言之隐，一洗了之。现在的所谓洗液，大多是清热利湿一'

健身運動後喝蜂蜜好處多多
以前的研究證實，在進行劇烈的負重訓練後，補充一些碳水化合物與蛋白質能夠增強肌肉恢復的效果。而最新的研究證明，在眾多的碳水化合物中，蜂蜜效果最佳。
專家指出，蜂蜜能在訓練後兩小時內，幫助人體維持高標準的血糖水平。
血糖是血液中所含的葡萄糖，它是人體主要的能量來源。血液中葡萄糖的濃度過低，便會出現低血糖反應，嚴重影響人體生命活動的正常進行。因此，訓練後維持較 高的血糖水平，對肌肉的恢復至為重要。但是在負重訓練後，身體會增加胰島素的分泌，以促進蛋白質的新陳代謝。而當體內胰島素的含量上升時，血糖就會隨之下 降、所以要想維持高血糖水平並不是件容易的事。
研究人員對運動員進行了實驗，他們都在劇烈的負重訓練後立即補充蛋白質及碳水化合物。同是碳水化合物，一些人補充糖，一些人補充麥芽糖糊精，另一些人則補 充蜂蜜。結果，只有喝蜂蜜的那組人在訓練後兩小時之內維持了理想的血糖含量，而且這些人的激素水平也證明，他們的肌肉處於理想的恢復狀態。

女性多吃烏骨雞湯 抗老化
現代營養學上一直有“紅肉”和“白肉”之分，前者指的是豬、牛、羊等肉類;後者指的是禽類和海鮮等，其營養價值要高於紅肉。辦公室一族養生就要多吃“白肉”，特別是雞肉。
雞肉就是白肉中的代表，其增強人體免疫力的作用主要體現在所含有的牛磺酸上。牛磺酸可以增強人的消化能力，起到抗氧化和一定的解毒作用。在改善 心腦功能、促進兒童智力發育方面，更是有較好的作用。尤其是烏雞的牛磺酸的含量更高，比普通雞肉的滋補作用更強。
由於雞肉具有很強的滋補作用，現代社會中天天忙忙碌碌，常處於亞健康狀態最好多吃一些，以增強免疫力，減少患病幾率。但也不是所有人都適合吃雞肉進補，雞肉中豐富的蛋白質會加重腎臟負擔，因此有腎病的人應儘量少吃，尤其是尿毒癥患者，應該禁食。

孕婦要保證適量的有氧運動
孕婦在運動前要做好合理的計劃，首先要與婦產科醫師討論。
孕婦如果有健康問題，運動會對孕婦或嬰兒造成傷害。
如果經醫生許可，孕婦可以先由較輕鬆的運動著手，不致於引起疼痛、呼吸困難或過度疲倦，然後慢慢地增加運動量。
如果感覺不舒服、呼吸困難或非常疲倦，請減少運動量。
如果懷孕前就有運動習慣，懷孕時保持運動會比較容易。
如果以前沒有運動習慣，則懷孕時要很緩慢地開始運動，不要操之過急。
許多婦女發現懷孕時，需要減少運動量。
對於孕婦來說，最舒服的運動，就是不會增加身體負擔額外重量的運動。
懷孕時，可以持續游泳與騎健身車，走路與低衝擊力的有氧運動也是可以接受的。
孕婦可以和婦產科醫生討論，以決定何種運動對母體與胎兒最好。
孕婦在運動時要做好安全措施，避免會增加跌倒或受傷風險的運動，例如肢體碰撞或激烈的運動。
孕婦腹部即使輕微的受傷，也可能造成嚴重的後果。

【小蘇打粉的妙用】
小蘇打化學名稱為重碳酸鈉，呈弱鹼性，也稱為「萬用寶」，除了用做糕餅烘痛的發粉（英文俗稱為bakingsoda）價格低廉！能自然分解、無毒性、不會污染環境，且不刺激皮膚。
★小蘇打粉有分：
食用小蘇打粉--價格適中，適用烹煮、個人清潔、美容、清洗食用杯碗盤用。
工業用小蘇打--價格便宜，適用拖地、洗衣、清潔家居用。
小蘇打粉購買處：購買時請問清楚是食用性或工業用小蘇打粉，也可到西藥房、超市、雜糧行、化工材料店、大賣場購買。我大部分都是到雜糧行買小包裝的食用小蘇打粉使用，適用烹煮、食用、烘培、清洗杯碗盤、刷牙、沐浴。
同樣小包裝蘇打粉約20-40元間的價格，請多比價，小蘇打粉價格很混亂，很多老闆都是自由心証亂賣。
★使用小蘇打粉注意事項：
1、使用時請分清楚是食用性或工業用小蘇打粉。
2、烘培食用、個人美容清潔，請注意勿過量。
加入過量的蘇打粉，除了使西點有上述破壞風味或導致鹼味太重的結果，食用後會使人有心悸、嘴唇發麻、短暫失去味覺等徵狀。
【小蘇打粉用法】
★沐浴用
a.8 oz（240g）加在大浴缸，洗後皮膚光滑不乾燥。
b.酌量加在水中，用手搓揉有滑滑的感覺便可。
c.夏日長痱子時，用小蘇打水浸泡，馬上消失。
d.皮膚過敏不能使用沐浴乳或肥皂時，用小蘇打水洗較不刺激。
★烹煮時：烹調時，可裝在牙籤罐上，利用罐上的小細孔，少量且均勻的在食材上撒小蘇打粉。
⊙肉類--在肉類上撒少許小蘇打粉，用手拌勻後再烹調，可使肉較軟嫩。
⊙海帶--煮海帶時撒少許小蘇打粉，可使海帶較容易煮軟。煮軟後的海帶再進行烹煮。
⊙乾魷魚--發泡時加入小蘇打粉，魷魚發後有彈性。
⊙青菜--炒綠色蔬菜時，撒上少許的小蘇打粉，也可以使青菜更加地翠綠。

★小蘇打粉泡水 除蔬果農藥
蔬果農藥殘留問題，朝陽科技大學陳耀寬博士發現一個極簡單的辦法那就是小蘇打粉。
小蘇打粉一湯匙泡水，水變成微黃顏色，再把水果蔬菜放進去浸泡個2～3分鐘就OK了。
2分鐘去掉農藥，它也會去除自來水中的氯。小蘇達粉這麼神奇，能除農藥又能除氯，專家說 其實這很簡單，小蘇達粉其實就是碳酸氫鈉粉，化學式是NaHCO3，NA是鈉帶正電，放到自來水裡面，會跟水中帶負電的氯結合變成氯化鈉，也就是鹽巴，這 解決了自來水氯毒的問題。再來就是Ｈ氫，氫帶正電加入水中會結合帶負電的水分子O2，變成OH弱鹼水，一般大部份的農藥都是酸性，因此弱鹼水中和酸性之 外，還能加速去除附著在蔬果上的農藥。
★居家清潔用：
沒有不能清洗的物品，家中的廚房、浴廁、洗衣機旁都會放置ㄧ罐小蘇打粉，方便取用。食用小蘇打粉價格適中，適用烹煮、個人清潔、美容、清洗食用杯碗盤用。
清洗杯碗盤(請用食用性)：使用小蘇打加水調成糊狀，超級好用，就像新的一樣摸起來揪揪揪，不像洗碗精洗後滑滑的。對於頑固的茶垢，浸泡ㄧ會再刷洗，閃閃發光如新的一般。
★清潔用可用廉價的工業性小蘇打粉
⊕洗衣服：
換季的衣服拿出後會發黃，用漂白劑越洗越黃嗎？洗衣機中浸泡髒衣物時，同時加入洗衣精+ 小蘇打粉，可保衣物潔白（浸泡時以溫熱水效果更佳），有漂白衣服的效果，顏色鮮豔不褪色。洗襪子時，浸泡洗衣粉+小蘇打粉，頑垢易掉還可除臭。洗衣除臭， 洗衣時加一大匙進洗衣機可除汗臭味；家有乳幼兒，亦可去除布尿片及衣服被單之尿臭，讓洗好的衣物有股清爽之氣味。
★流理台上、瓦斯爐架的陳年油垢
使用小蘇打加水調成糊狀，配合菜瓜布，ㄧ下子就清潔溜溜，根本不用買化學有毒的清潔劑來使用(314從不用買魔術靈...等相關產品)，好用又安全，經常使用小蘇打粉清洗流理台、水龍頭，常保閃亮潔淨。
使用小牙刷或菜瓜布沾小蘇打清洗水龍頭，就會閃閃動人！
★浴廁的馬桶
ㄧ般使用小蘇打粉就可以閃亮潔白，若是碰到超髒馬桶，請用小蘇打粉+白醋，簡直是清潔雄兵，無往不利！將一杯或250ml的白醋，再加上少許蘇打粉調勻倒在馬桶內，等候10～15分鐘，便用長柄刷擦去污漬，然後放水沖洗即可，清洗磁磚還有防霉作用！
★當除臭劑：
可裝好一小瓶小蘇打粉放置冰箱內、衣櫥內、廁所、鞋櫃內當除臭劑，ㄧ個月後更換新蘇打粉，舊的蘇打粉可用洗衣拖地、清潔爐頭、通水管去淤塞，不浪費喔！在垃圾筒底灑蘇打粉或是在冰箱放一包開封的蘇打粉可以去除臭味。

偶爾撒一層蘇打粉在鞋子裡，可以除鞋臭。將少量蘇打粉直接撤入長筒靴、運動鞋，或常穿而易有異味、溼氣的鞋中，在蘇打粉作用之下，它會吸收溼氣及異味，很快你就會有一雙乾爽的鞋子了。貓沙中加入少許小蘇打粉可以除臭。
★去淤塞：洗面盆或水管有輕微的淤塞現象，可用1/4杯蘇打粉及半杯白醋，加上熱水沖洗約3分鐘。
★除蟑劑：
糖和蘇打粉各半，混合一起，放置在蟑螂出沒地方，約3～14天後，蟑螂就會消失不見。因為蟑螂的胃是酸性的，不能接受糖和蘇打混合體的鹼性進入牠們胃內，會中毒死亡。

哪個星座的老婆最辛苦
★第五名：
對水瓶男老婆的箴言：
現在是女人頂起大半邊天的社會！
如果不想給自己找煩惱又需要一個極有主見的老公話還是和他們保持一定距離比較好，很多水瓶男是怕太太俱樂部的一員，把事情交給老婆，自己在一邊樂得其所，其實事實上水瓶男也不是沒主見他們只是怕麻煩，除非真的踩到他的自尊或者事關重大，否則他都寧可交給另一半去處理。
★第四名：
對天蠍男老婆的箴言：
做天蠍座的老婆要學會服從
天蠍座對於很多比較優柔寡斷的人來說不算什麼問題。天蠍座的人很喜歡掌控主導權，尤其是他有經驗的事情，他會覺得說不想讓另一半走冤枉路，所以他會告訴你、教你這件事那件事應該怎麼做，當然重點是你得照他的方式去做，否則天蠍男就會暴跳如雷。
★第三名：
對摩羯男老婆的箴言：
動口不如動手，當作是在減肥好了!
魔羯座除了是工作狂之外，也很討厭別人逼迫他，堅持又固執，偏偏衛生習慣又很成問題，因為對他來說只要省事就好，他的重心永遠在工作上。然而對倔強的摩羯男來說任何苦口婆心的思想教育都是沒用的。
★第二名：
對處女男老婆的箴言：
一定要透過現像看本質，防範於未然很重要。
以為能忍受處女男的龜毛就天下太平了嗎？其實處女座男生是披著羊皮的狼，事實上卻非常悶騷，而且有機會的話他是不排斥任何可能性，包括結婚以後，除非老婆非常的優秀又看得緊，否則他就會容易到處亂放電了。
★第一名：
對天秤男老婆的箴言：
心態，調整心態很重要。
天秤男不就是曖昧多點桃花多點而已，天秤男的所有的體貼溫柔都只會表現在不熟的朋友身上，會把女朋友當做自己人，不會講情話討好女友，而且永遠重朋友大過於愛情。

原来，老婆脾气越坏，丈夫就会越衰， 老婆越温柔如水，丈夫就会越旺，大家慎记哦！
净空法师谈＂旺夫＂
自古以来只有“旺夫”一词，没有“旺妇”一词，可见只有女人才能旺男人，而男人无法旺女人。
什么原因呢？面相学家根据面相找到旺夫相的女人，比如圆润，有光泽，柔和等等，都不是根本的原因，也做不到百分百的准确。
现在，我从佛法的角度跟大家谈谈根本的原因。
传统文化认为，女人是水做的，而水为财，是故，女人天生就是财命。
这里的女人，是指所有的女人，而不是个别的女人。
而男人的财，只是掩藏在五行水中，这个水，只是一小部分而已。
所以，对于男人来讲，有一句话叫“成家立业”。
只有成家了，才能立业，所以，男人需要一个女人来旺自己才可以立业。
一个成功的男人背后总有一个为之奉献的女人。
我们来看看水的特质是什么：
1、上善若水。
水往低处流，如水的女人在家庭关系中，一定肯就下，托起满家。
自以为妇女能顶半边天的女强人，失去了水的本分，跟男人争天，让男人没了空间，肯定克夫。
一般很容易离婚，即使有钱也享受不了。
2、抽刀断水水更流。
水是至柔的，水流经过的地方，遇到障碍，会自动拐弯，不会硬碰硬，水就永远不会受到伤害。
面对男人大发雷霆的时候，如水的女人善于以柔克刚，因为只有柔能克刚，刚不能克柔。
所以，如水的女人撒撒娇，发发嗲，耍耍赖，男人就没了脾气。
所以如水的女人永远是一家之主。
以刚性为主的女人喜欢跟男人对着干，这个叫“鸡蛋碰石头”，而且遍体鳞伤的永远是女人。
我曾经遇到一个硬碰硬的美女，她告诉我说，以前丈夫对自己百依百顺，结婚后不久丈夫就有了外遇，我告诉她，百依百顺，只能依你顺你有限的次数，不能依你顺你一辈子。
只有你做了真女人，男人才会对你全心全意一辈子。
3、水能滋润。
万物的成长不留痕迹，如水的女人，总能找到男人的好处，不动声色的夸奖男人，赞美男人，口吐莲花，让男人感觉自己是个英雄，充满了力量，下定决心一定要保护自己柔弱的妻子，如此两个人的关系才能亲密无间。
反之，女人经常挑男人的毛病，男人的心越来越凉，越来越没信心，觉得自己是个笨蛋，觉得自己是个废物，只能越来越走下坡路。
北京一个女人问我说，她丈夫找的小三，既没有她漂亮，也没有她学历高，钱也赚的没她多，她搞不懂自己的老公看上小三哪一点了?
我告诉她，你老公喜欢对方的温柔体贴爱语，她哑口无言。
4、未婚的女孩子，在家庭，社会，在公司，如果真能做如水的女子，口吐莲花，广结善缘，遇到他人发脾气，也能微笑面对，勇挑重担，吃苦乐受，必定得上司的赏识，步步高升。
今年10月，我在南宁佛友会期间来了一对夫妇，男人经常打女人。
我定心一观，就跟这个男人说，你的财运是一年60-100万，只可惜，你现在一年只有15万，而且都花掉了，现在是入不敷出。
男人睁大了眼睛问我：
师父，快给我说说原因吧。
我说：
很多时候，你在谈生意的时候，觉得非常有戏可以谈成，但到最后，却总是事与愿违，甚至最后的结果，让你欲哭无泪，该拿的钱你拿不到。
你知道是什么原因么？
男人全身一震，两眼放光，失声对我说：
师父，求您开示。的确如您所说，我的境遇一直是这样的。
这个时候，旁边一大群人都做了同样的动作，脖子伸的长长的，目不转睛地盯着我，生怕自己错失了每一个字。
我看了看他，开口说：
女人为水，水为财，你的妻子是你的家财，家财不安，外财莫入。
你想想，你是怎么对待你妻子的，你的妻子心安么？
你的妻子心不安，家财不安，外财怎么敢进你的家呢？
男人看看自己的妻子，看看自己。我说，还不赶紧跟你妻子忏悔认错？
男人一听我的话，立马跪下给自己的妻子磕了三个响头，口说：
老婆，我错了。
妻子看到丈夫给自己下跪，顿时委屈的哭了起来，这一哭，就哭了55分钟。
我吩咐众人，让她哭，不要安慰，让她把委屈哭出来。
旺夫的意义在于：
一个圆满的家庭，需要女人做好自己的本分，也需要男人做好自己的本分。
10月底的北京佛友会又遇到一对夫妇一同前来，男人是事业有成型的，跟我讨教如何进一步提升事业。
我定心一看，说：
你目前一年财运是800-1000万，但很可惜，你只拿到了300万，而且入不敷出。
男人的眼神像被什么吸引了一般，急促问我。
2、妻子是水，水为财，家财不安，外财莫入。我说，要对你的妻子好一点，早点把外缘断了。
3、女人为水，男人为刚，要有容乃大。
你有多大的肚量，就能盛多少财，你妻子不够的，外财会来补充，所以，作男人的，不能斤斤计较，要懂得慈悲喜舍。
有人天天求财神，注定了自己是个穷人。
有人经常慈悲喜舍，那么，在别人的眼里，他就是财神，财神没有钱，谁还能有钱呢！
男人立即表态，愿意赞助20个失学儿童，并且，生意好了，会赞助更多的失学儿童。
谈话中，他一直点头，并告诉我说：的确，去年跟妻子关系融洽的时候，订单都接不过来，后来，跟妻子关系不好以后，生意也不好了。
于是，我告诉他，怕老婆的家庭都很富裕，所谓怕，不是畏惧的意思，而是疼爱，珍惜，舍不得自己老婆受委屈。
请读者反省，自己是否是个如水的女人，自己是否是一个怕自己的女人受委屈的男人。
如果是，那么恭喜你，你一定富裕和乐美满。

我告诉她，你老公喜欢对方的温柔体贴爱语，她哑口无言。
4、未婚的女孩子，在家庭，社会，在公司，如果真能做如水的女子，口吐莲花，广结善缘，遇到他人发脾气，也能微笑面对，勇挑重担，吃苦乐受，必定得上司的赏识，步步高升。
今年10月，我在南宁佛友会期间来了一对夫妇，男人经常打女人。
我定心一观，就跟这个男人说，你的财运是一年60-100万，只可惜，你现在一年只有15万，而且都花掉了，现在是入不敷出。
男人睁大了眼睛问我：
师父，快给我说说原因吧。
我说：
很多时候，你在谈生意的时候，觉得非常有戏可以谈成，但到最后，却总是事与愿违，甚至最后的结果，让你欲哭无泪，该拿的钱你拿不到。
你知道是什么原因么？
男人全身一震，两眼放光，失声对我说：
师父，求您开示。的确如您所说，我的境遇一直是这样的。
这个时候，旁边一大群人都做了同样的动作，脖子伸的长长的，目不转睛地盯着我，生怕自己错失了每一个字。
我看了看他，开口说：
女人为水，水为财，你的妻子是你的家财，家财不安，外财莫入。
你想想，你是怎么对待你妻子的，你的妻子心安么？
你的妻子心不安，家财不安，外财怎么敢进你的家呢？
男人看看自己的妻子，看看自己。我说，还不赶紧跟你妻子忏悔认错？
男人一听我的话，立马跪下给自己的妻子磕了三个响头，口说：
老婆，我错了。
妻子看到丈夫给自己下跪，顿时委屈的哭了起来，这一哭，就哭了55分钟。
我吩咐众人，让她哭，不要安慰，让她把委屈哭出来。
旺夫的意义在于：
一个圆满的家庭，需要女人做好自己的本分，也需要男人做好自己的本分。
10月底的北京佛友会又遇到一对夫妇一同前来，男人是事业有成型的，跟我讨教如何进一步提升事业。
我定心一看，说：
你目前一年财运是800-1000万，但很可惜，你只拿到了300万，而且入不敷出。
男人的眼神像被什么吸引了一般，急促问我。
2、妻子是水，水为财，家财不安，外财莫入。我说，要对你的妻子好一点，早点把外缘断了。
3、女人为水，男人为刚，要有容乃大。
你有多大的肚量，就能盛多少财，你妻子不够的，外财会来补充，所以，作男人的，不能斤斤计较，要懂得慈悲喜舍。
有人天天求财神，注定了自己是个穷人。
有人经常慈悲喜舍，那么，在别人的眼里，他就是财神，财神没有钱，谁还能有钱呢！
男人立即表态，愿意赞助20个失学儿童，并且，生意好了，会赞助更多的失学儿童。
谈话中，他一直点头，并告诉我说：的确，去年跟妻子关系融洽的时候，订单都接不过来，后来，跟妻子关系不好以后，生意也不好了。
于是，我告诉他，怕老婆的家庭都很富裕，所谓怕，不是畏惧的意思，而是疼爱，珍惜，舍不得自己老婆受委屈。
请读者反省，自己是否是个如水的女人，自己是否是一个怕自己的女人受委屈的男人。
如果是，那么恭喜你，你一定富裕和乐美满。
How to Make Your Woman Swoon
#15 Tell Her She's Beautiful
Women love compliments but none as much as those that come from the one they love. There should never be any doubt in her mind that you find her attractive. Tell her every time.#14 Reassure Her
Be the guy that's always in her corner, giving her sincere reassurance. If she's worried about that big interview, tell her how smart she is and what a great employee she'll be. If she's nervous about her new haircut, tell her how hot she looks. Whatever it is, just reassure her.#13 Treat Her Like a Real Lady
It doesn't matter if she drives monster trucks for a living and hasn't worn a dress since childhood, every woman loves it when a man treats her like a lady. Bring her flowers, make her candlelight dinners, leave her love notes. Do all of those little "cheesy" things you might feel silly doing because they will make her feel like she is loved.#12 Talk Her Up to Others
People don't like it when others talk about them behind their back unless something good is being said. When someone asks about your girl, tell them how amazing she is. It will eventually get back to her and when it does, she will love you for it.#11 Be Helpful and Understanding
This is especially huge if she gets into some kind of trouble or is under a lot of stress. Be understanding of her situation and try to help her however you can.#10 Listen To Her
Remember that you can hear someone without actually listening to them. When you listen to her, take a genuine interest in the things she has to say and respond by consoling her. This isn't a time to give her advice (unless she asks for it), she probably just wants to know you care.#9 Just A Kiss
Don't be the kind of guy that only kisses when it can turn into something more. Show her you love to kiss her any time, not just when it could lead to a make-out session or sex.#8 Tell Her When You Miss Her
You may think that being in love sort of automatically implies that you'd miss each other when there is distance between you, but it doesn't mean she doesn't still want to hear it.#7 Embrace Her Quirks
Maybe she knows more about the world of comics than you and loves to knit or make crafts. Embrace all of those "odd" little things that make her who she is. In fact, those are probably all of the little things you adore about her.#6 Admit When You're Wrong
It's like the old saying goes "do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?" Say you're sorry, it's worth it.#5 Watch Her Favorite Film
So she watches The Vow too much, you're probably sick of hearing it but if you watch it with her voluntarily, you just might find yourself in one of those romantic situations she's always watching in the movies.#4 Go The Extra Mile
There are a bunch of little things you can do each day to show her how much you care. Walk her home or surprise her with lunch at work. Do little things every day that go above what she was expecting and she'll be completely swept off her feet.#3 Whisper Sweet Nothings
Lean in close and whisper something sweet to her. Tell her how beautiful she is or how much you love her. She'll love the intimate moment between you two.#2 Smile At Her
One of the quickest ways to grab her attention is by making eye contact and smiling. Extra points if you wink like Ryan here (of course, if you happen to look anything like Ryan Gosling, you probably don't need to do anything more)#1 Let Her Know You're Smitten
Women want to know their wanted and that their man is always eager to see her. You will make her happy by showing her that she is your every happiness.12星座情緒失控表現方式

4 Secrets To Great Kissing
Kissing tips are essential if you want to deliver a really excellent kiss. Here are the secrets you might be missing when it comes to kissing!
Get this. For the ladies, kissing is enough. While guys tend to see kisses as prelude to hot sex, women have no qualms seeing it as an end unto itself. For them, a kiss need not lead to anything, it doesn’t have to be foreplay. It can be a stand-alone, pleasurable, loving act unto itself.
Now, tell that to a horndog and he’ll bitch about how women are a bunch of tease. The XY brain has difficulty processing how women stay happy with simple lip locks when it knows that sex is up for grabs. “Let’s use the bed for goodnessakes!” When one already knows the ruckus of intercourse, kissing, by comparison, becomes lame.
Go kiss, but don’t expect clothes to come afalling every time. Relish the lip action, relax your jaws, lips & tongue, and don’t think of anything else. Avoid thoughts of sex. This alone already makes you a better kisser. When you’re not wondering where that last condom is, you do better.
And guess what, women read something into good kissers – that they’re also studs between the sheets. When she thinks this, you’re making it easier for her to go va-voom with your flow. So read up on some kissing tips and don’t be shy about it!
There are several ways to achieve this. You can for example gently caress her cheeks, chin, lips or hair before the kiss. Or look longingly into her eyes and survey her face. Lean in as if to kiss her, then stop a few centimeters before your lips touch, breathe deeply and give her a sigh. Or prelude it by rubbing noses. With eyes closed, you can also nuzzle around the cheekbone, neck and below the ear zone. Set the kiss right so she’ll appreciate it when you finally let her have it.Again, this entails teasing, you have to make her want it.
1. Women Love To Kiss
Certainly not the first time blokes heard of that one, women are nagging for it. But in spite of the flood of headlines for lip action, the response has come in short supply. Either that, or women just can’t get enough no matter what.Get this. For the ladies, kissing is enough. While guys tend to see kisses as prelude to hot sex, women have no qualms seeing it as an end unto itself. For them, a kiss need not lead to anything, it doesn’t have to be foreplay.

2. Let Kissing Be Enough For You
But here’s the thing: To become a great kisser, accept the real possibility that tongue action may be all you’re getting in a given night.Go kiss, but don’t expect clothes to come afalling every time. Relish the lip action, relax your jaws, lips & tongue, and don’t think of anything else. Avoid thoughts of sex. This alone already makes you a better kisser. When you’re not wondering where that last condom is, you do better.
3. Learn To Get Good If You Aren’t Already
To be a good kisser is an imperative, there is no other resort. When it comes to liplocks, a woman never excuses the lame ones. She believes she can find out everything just from the way a guy smooches. It’s crazy! She thinks she has this lip-guided intuition – and sloppy kissers always go down the drain. A terrible smooch can change her perception of you.And guess what, women read something into good kissers – that they’re also studs between the sheets. When she thinks this, you’re making it easier for her to go va-voom with your flow. So read up on some kissing tips and don’t be shy about it!
4. Create Sexual Tension
Now, the secret to a great kiss is the psychological set-up. There has to be some sort of sexual tension‘ before your lips touch. Only dive when there’s enough tension.There are several ways to achieve this. You can for example gently caress her cheeks, chin, lips or hair before the kiss. Or look longingly into her eyes and survey her face. Lean in as if to kiss her, then stop a few centimeters before your lips touch, breathe deeply and give her a sigh. Or prelude it by rubbing noses.

12 Foods With Super-Healing Powers - Part 2
Onions
Onions get a bad rap for their effect on breath, but that's not the only part of the body where they pack a wallop. Onions contain potent cancer-fighting enzymes; onion consumption has been shown to help lower the risk of prostate and esophageal cancers and has also been linked to reduced mortality from coronary heart disease. Research suggests that they may help protect against stomach cancer. Onions contain sulfides that help lower blood pressure and cholesterol, as well as a peptide that may help prevent bone loss by inhibiting the loss of calcium and other bone minerals.Onions have super antioxidant power. They contain quercetin, a natural antihistamine that reduces airway inflammation and helps relieve symptoms of allergies and hay fever. Onions also boast high levels of vitamin C, which, along with the quercetin, battles cold and flu symptoms. Onions' anti-inflammatory properties help fight the pain and swelling associated with osteo- and rheumatoid arthritis. Onions are also extremely rich in sulfur and they have antibiotic and antiviral properties, making them excellent for people who consume a diet high in protein, fat, or sugar, as they help cleanse the arteries and impede the growth of viruses, yeasts, and other disease-causing agents, which can build up in an imbalanced diet.
How much: For all the health benefits onions provide, it would be ideal to eat one a day. However, if that's not doable for you, add a few onions to your weekly grocery list and try to eat a little bit every day. All varieties are extremely good for you, but shallots and yellow onions lead the pack in antioxidant activity. Raw onions provide the best nutrition, but they're still great for you when they're lightly cooked. And cooking meat at high temperatures (such as on a grill) with onions can help reduce or counteract carcinogens produced by the meat.
Tip:
- Onions should be stored at room temperature, but if they bother your eyes when you cut them, try refrigerating them for an hour beforehand.
Carrots
Carrots are a great source of the potent antioxidants known as carotenoids. Diets high in carotenoids have been tied to a decreased risk in postmenopausal breast cancer as well as cancers of the bladder, cervix, prostate, colon, larynx, and esophagus. Conversely, diets low in carotenoids have been associated with chronic disease, including heart disease and various cancers. Research suggests that just one carrot per day could reduce your risk of lung cancer by half. Carrots may also reduce your risk of kidney and ovarian cancers. In addition to fighting cancer, the nutrients in carrots inhibit cardiovascular disease, stimulate the immune system, promote colon health, and support ear and eye health.Carrots contain calcium, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, fiber, vitamin C, and an incredible amount of vitamin A. The alpha-carotene in carrots has shown promise in inhibiting tumor growth. Carrots also contain the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin, which work together to promote eye health and prevent macular degeneration and cataracts. In Chinese medicine, carrots are used to treat rheumatism, kidney stones, tumors, indigestion, diarrhea, night blindness, ear infections, earaches, deafness, skin lesions, urinary tract infections, coughs, and constipation.
How much: Eat a serving of carrots each day if you can, and enjoy them year-round. Carrots are good for you whether they're raw or lightly cooked; cooking helps break down the tough fiber, making some of the nutrients more easily absorbed. For the best nutrition, go for whole carrots that are firm and fresh-looking. Precut baby carrots are made from whole carrots and, although they're convenient, they tend to lose important nutrients during processing.
Tips:
- Remove carrot tops before storing them in the fridge, as the tops drain moisture from the roots and will cause the carrots to wilt.
- Buy organic; conventionally grown carrots frequently show high pesticide residues.
Cabbage
Cabbage is a powerhouse source of vitamins K and C. Just one cup supplies 91 percent of the recommended daily amount for vitamin K, 50 percent of vitamin C, good amounts of fiber, and decent scores of manganese, vitamin B6, folate, and more -- and it'll only cost you about 33 calories. Calorie for calorie, cabbage offers 11 percent more vitamin C than oranges.Cabbage contains high levels of antioxidant sulforaphanes that not only fight free radicals before they damage DNA but also stimulate enzymes that detoxify carcinogens in the body. Researchers believe this one-two approach may contribute to the apparent ability of cruciferous vegetables to reduce the risk of cancer more effectively than any other plant food group. Numerous studies point to a strong association between diets high in cruciferous vegetables and a low incidence of lung, colon, breast, ovarian, and bladder cancers.
Cabbage builds strong bones, dampens allergic reactions, reduces inflammation, and promotes gastrointestinal health. Cabbage is routinely juiced as a natural remedy for healing peptic ulcers due to its high glutamine content. It also provides significant cardiovascular benefit by preventing plaque formation in the blood vessels. In Chinese medicine, cabbage is used to treat constipation, the common cold, whooping cough, depression and irritability, and stomach ulcers. When eaten and used as a poultice, as a dual treatment, cabbage is helpful for healing bedsores, varicose veins, and arthritis.
How much: The more cabbage you can include in your diet, the better. A study of Polish women found that those who ate at least four servings of cabbage per week as adolescents were 72 percent less likely to develop breast cancer later in life than their peers who consumed only one weekly serving or less.
Tips:
- Try raw sauerkraut. It has all the health properties of cabbage, plus some potent probiotics, which are excellent for digestive health.
- Use the whole cabbage; the outer leaves contain a third more calcium than the inner leaves.
- Both are nutritional stars, but red cabbages are far superior to the white variety, with about seven times more vitamin C and more than four times the polyphenols, which protect cells from oxidative stress and cancer.
Broccoli
You'll find it difficult to locate another single food source with as much naturally occurring health-promoting properties as broccoli. A single cup of steamed broccoli provides more than 200 percent of the RDA for vitamin C (more than oranges), nearly as much of vitamin K, and about half of the daily allowance for vitamin A, along with plentiful folate, fiber, sulfur, iron, B vitamins, and a whole host of other important nutrients. Calorie for calorie, broccoli contains about twice the amount of protein as steak -- and a lot more protective phytonutrients.Broccoli's phytochemicals fight cancer by neutralizing carcinogens and accelerating their elimination from the body, in addition to inhibiting tumors caused by chemical carcinogens. Studies show evidence that these substances help prevent lung and esophageal cancers and may play a role in lowering the risk of other cancers, including gastrointestinal cancer.
Phytonutrients called indoles found in broccoli help protect against prostate, gastric, skin, breast, and cervical cancers. Some research suggests that indoles also protect the structure of DNA and may reduce the risk of prostate cancer. Extensive studies have linked broccoli to a 20 percent reduction in heart disease risk. In Chinese medicine, broccoli is used to treat eye inflammation.
How much: If you can eat a little broccoli every day, your body will thank you for it. If you can't swing it, aim for eating it as regularly as possible. Like many other vegetables, broccoli provides fantastic nutrition both in its raw form and when it's properly cooked. Cooking reduces some of broccoli's anticancer components, but lightly steaming it will preserve most of the nutrients. Broccoli is available fresh year-round in most areas, but if you can't find it where you live, frozen broccoli is a good substitute.
Tip:
- Steaming or cooking broccoli lightly releases the maximum amount of the antioxidant sulforaphane.
Kale
Kale is highly nutritious, has powerful antioxidant properties, and is anti-inflammatory. One cup of cooked kale contains an astounding 1,328 percent of the RDA for vitamin K, 192 percent of the RDA for vitamin A, and 89 percent of the RDA for vitamin C. It's also a good source of calcium and iron.Kale is in the same plant family as broccoli and cabbage, and, like its cruciferous cousins, it contains high levels of the cancer-fighting compound sulforaphane, which guards against prostate, gastric, skin, and breast cancers by boosting the body's detoxification enzymes and fighting free radicals in the body. The indoles in kale have been shown to protect against breast, cervical, and colon cancers. The vitamin K in kale promotes blood clotting, protects the heart, and helps build strong bones by anchoring calcium to the bone. It also has more antioxidant power than spinach, protecting against free-radical damage. Kale is extra rich in beta-carotene (containing seven times as much as does broccoli), lutein, and zeaxanthin (ten times the amount in broccoli). In Chinese medicine, kale is used to help ease lung congestion.
How much: Like cabbage, the more kale you can eat, the better. A daily serving is ideal. Eat it as much as you can, as long as you can find it fresh at your local grocery or farmer's market. In some areas, it's available all year; in others, it only makes an appearance during summer and fall.
Tips:
- Kale's growing season extends nearly year-round; the only time it's out of season is summer, when plenty of other leafy greens are abundant.
- Steam or saute kale on its own, or add it to soups and stews. Cooking helps tenderize the leaves.
- Kale is also a great addition when it's blended in fruit smoothies or juiced with other vegetables.
Dandelion
The same pesky weed known for ruining lawns has a long history of being used as a healing herb in cultures around the globe. One cup of raw dandelion greens provides 535 percent of the RDA of vitamin K and 112 percent of the RDA for vitamin A. Dandelion greens are also a good source of vitamin C, calcium, iron, fiber, and potassium. Among all foods, it's one of the richest sources of vitamin A; among all green vegetables, it's one of the best sources of beta-carotene.Dandelion has been used for centuries to treat hepatitis, kidney, and liver disorders such as kidney stones, jaundice, and cirrhosis. It's routinely prescribed as a natural treatment for hepatitis C, anemia, and liver detoxification (poor liver function has been linked to numerous conditions, from indigestion and hepatitis to irritability and depression). As a natural diuretic, dandelion supports the entire digestive system and increases urine output, helping flush toxins and excess salt from the kidneys. The naturally occurring potassium in dandelions helps prevent the loss of potassium that can occur with pharmaceutical diuretics.
Dandelion promotes digestive health by stimulating bile production, resulting in a gentle laxative effect. Inulin, a naturally occurring soluble fiber in dandelion, further aids digestion by feeding the healthy probiotic bacteria in the intestines; it also increases calcium absorption and has a beneficial effect on blood sugar levels, therefore being useful in treating diabetes. Both the dandelion leaves and root are used to treat heartburn and indigestion. The pectin in dandelion relieves constipation and, in combination with vitamin C, reduces cholesterol. Dandelion is excellent for reducing edema, bloating, and water retention; it can also help reduce high blood pressure. On top of all that, dandelion contains multiple antidiarrheal and antibacterial properties.
In Chinese medicine, dandelion is used in combination with other herbs to treat hepatitis and upper respiratory tract infections such as bronchitis and pneumonia. The sap from the stem and root is a topical remedy for warts. Imagine -- all this from a lowly weed!
How much: How much dandelion to incorporate into your diet boils down to two factors: availability and personal preference. Dandelion greens are considered a specialty item in some areas and therefore can be difficult to find. They also have a pungent taste, and people tend to love or hate the flavor. If you can find fresh dandelion greens and you enjoy the taste, make them a regular part of your diet.
Tip:
- Use the root in soups or saute it on its own.
- If the raw leaves are too bitter for you, try them lightly steamed or sauteed.
12 Foods With Super-Healing Powers
As part of a healthy diet, whole foods play a significant role in helping our bodies function at their best. There are hundreds of extremely nutritious whole foods, but the dozen on this list do more than contribute healthy nutrients -- they help you heal. In fact, every food on this list boasts multiple healing effects, from fighting cancer to reducing cholesterol, guarding against heart disease, and more. Eat these super-healing picks and start feeling pretty super yourself.
Kiwifruit is often recommended as part of an anticancer and heart-healthy diet, and in Chinese medicine it's used to accelerate the healing of wounds and sores.
How much: Aim to eat one to two kiwifruit a day while they're in season, for the best taste and nutrition. California-grown kiwifruit are in season from October through May, and New Zealand kiwifruit are available between April and November.
Tips:
Anthocyanin, another compound in cherries, is credited with lowering the uric acid levels in the blood, thereby reducing a common cause of gout. Researchers believe anthocyanins may also reduce your risk of colon cancer. Further, these compounds work like a natural form of ibuprofen, reducing inflammation and curbing pain. Regular consumption may help lower risk of heart attack and stroke.
In Chinese medicine, cherries are routinely used as a remedy for gout, arthritis, and rheumatism (as well as anemia, due to their high iron content). Plus they're delicious.
How much: Aim for a daily serving while they're in season locally. And keep a bag of frozen cherries in your freezer the rest of the year; frozen cherries retain 100 percent of their nutritional value and make a great addition to smoothies, yogurt, and oatmeal.
The nutrients in watercress protect against cancer and macular degeneration, help build the immune system, and support bone health. The iron helps red blood cells carry oxygen to your body's tissues for energy. The phytochemicals in watercress battle cancer in three ways: killing cancer cells, blocking carcinogens, and protecting healthy cells from carcinogens. They've also been linked to lower risk for lung and esophageal cancer and can help lower your risk for other cancers.
In Chinese medicine, watercress is thought to help reduce tumors, improve night vision, and stimulate bile production (improving digestion and settling intestinal gas). It's used as a remedy for jaundice, urinary difficulty, sore throat, mumps, and bad breath.
How much: Eat watercress daily if you can. In some regions, it's more widely available during the spring and summer, when it's cultivated outdoors. But since it can also be grown hydroponically in greenhouses, you can find it year-round in many grocery stores and at your local farmer's market.
Tip:
A carotenoid found in spinach not only kills prostate cancer cells, it also prevents them from multiplying. Folate promotes vascular health by lowering homocysteine, an amino acid that, at high levels, raises the risk of dementia and cardiovascular disease, including heart disease and stroke. Folate has also been shown to reduce the risk of developing colorectal, ovarian, and breast cancers and to help stop uncontrolled cell growth, one of the primary characteristics of all cancers. The vitamin C and beta-carotene in spinach protect against colon cancer in addition to fighting inflammation, making them key components of brain health, particularly in older adults.
Spinach is loaded with vitamin K (one cup of cooked spinach provides 1,111 percent of the recommended daily amount!), which builds strong bones by helping calcium adhere to the bone. Spinach is also rich in lutein, which protects against age-related macular degeneration, and it may help prevent heart attacks by keeping artery walls clear of cholesterol buildup.
How much: Fresh spinach should be a daily staple in your diet. It's available in practically every grocery store, no matter where you live, it's easy to find year-round, and you'd be hard pressed to find a more nutritionally sound, versatile green. So do yourself a healthy favor and aim for a few ounces -- raw, sauteed, or lightly steamed, every day.
Tips:
Kiwifruit
This tiny, nutrient-dense fruit packs an amazing amount of vitamin C (double the amount found in oranges), has more fiber than apples, and beats bananas as a high-potassium food. The unique blend of phytonutrients, vitamins, and minerals found in kiwifruit helps protect against heart disease, stroke, cancer, and respiratory disease. Kiwifruit's natural blood-thinning properties work without the side effects of aspirin and support vascular health by reducing the formation of spontaneous blood clots, lowering LDL cholesterol, and reducing blood pressure. Multiple studies have shown that kiwifruit not only reduces oxidative stress and damage to DNA but also prompts damaged cells to repair themselves.Kiwifruit is often recommended as part of an anticancer and heart-healthy diet, and in Chinese medicine it's used to accelerate the healing of wounds and sores.
How much: Aim to eat one to two kiwifruit a day while they're in season, for the best taste and nutrition. California-grown kiwifruit are in season from October through May, and New Zealand kiwifruit are available between April and November.
Tips:
- Kiwifruit contains enzymes that activate once you cut the fruit, causing the flesh to tenderize. So if you're making a fruit salad, cut the kiwifruit last.
- The riper the kiwifruit, the greater the antioxidant power, so let them ripen before you dig in.
Cherries
Cherries boast a laundry list of healing powers. For starters, they pack a powerful nutritional punch for a relatively low calorie count. They're also packed with substances that help fight inflammation and cancer. As if that weren't enough, in lab studies, quercetin and ellagic acid, two compounds contained in cherries, have been shown to inhibit the growth of tumors and even cause cancer cells to commit suicide -- without damaging healthy cells. Cherries also have antiviral and antibacterial properties.Anthocyanin, another compound in cherries, is credited with lowering the uric acid levels in the blood, thereby reducing a common cause of gout. Researchers believe anthocyanins may also reduce your risk of colon cancer. Further, these compounds work like a natural form of ibuprofen, reducing inflammation and curbing pain. Regular consumption may help lower risk of heart attack and stroke.
In Chinese medicine, cherries are routinely used as a remedy for gout, arthritis, and rheumatism (as well as anemia, due to their high iron content). Plus they're delicious.
How much: Aim for a daily serving while they're in season locally. And keep a bag of frozen cherries in your freezer the rest of the year; frozen cherries retain 100 percent of their nutritional value and make a great addition to smoothies, yogurt, and oatmeal.
Tip:
Lycopene protects our healthy cells from free radicals that can cause all kinds of damage, including blocked arteries, joint degeneration, nervous system problems, and even cancer. Although the findings are mixed, lycopene consumption has been associated with lower rates of prostate cancer in some studies. In addition, men with prostate tumors who consumed lycopene supplements showed significant improvements, such as smaller tumors and decreased malignancy, in some studies. Lycopene has also been found to inhibit the growth of breast cancer cells, and research suggests that this antioxidant may also help protect against coronary heart disease.
This strange-looking little fruit is also packed with vitamin C and other antioxidants. Serving for serving, guava offers more than 60 percent more potassium than a banana, which can help protect against heart disease and stroke. In fact, the nutrients found in guavas have been shown to lower LDL and boost HDL cholesterol, reduce triglycerides, and lower blood pressure.
How much: Aim to eat fresh guavas as often as you can when you can find them in stores. They're not commonly available in the freezer section; and most guava juices are processed and sweetened, so they don't provide the same superior nutrition that the whole, fresh fruit does. One to two guavas a day is a good goal.
Tip:
An assortment of phytochemicals found in beans has been shown to protect cells from cancerous activity by inhibiting cancer cells from reproducing, slowing tumor growth. Researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health reported that women who consumed beans at least twice a week were 24 percent less likely to develop breast cancer, and multiple studies have tied beans to a reduced risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and breast and colon cancers.
Beans deliver a whopping amount of antioxidants, which help prevent and fight oxidative damage. In fact, the USDA's ranking of foods by antioxidant capacity places three varieties of beans (red beans, red kidney beans, and pinto beans) in the top four -- and that's among all food groups. Beans are a great source of dietary fiber, protein, and iron. They also contain the amino acid tryptophan; foods with high amounts of tryptophan can help regulate your appetite, aid in sleep, and improve your mood. Many are also rich in folate, which plays a significant role in heart health. And depending on the type of bean you choose, you'll also get decent amounts of potassium, magnesium, vitamin B1 and B2, and vitamin K. Soybeans are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids.
In Chinese medicine, various types of beans have been used to treat alcoholism, food poisoning, edema (particularly in the legs), high blood pressure, diarrhea, laryngitis, kidney stones, rheumatism, and dozens of other conditions.
How much: Aim for a minimum of two servings of beans per week.
Tip:
- Buy organic or wash thoroughly, since conventionally grown cherries can be high in pesticides.
Guavas
Guavas are a small tropical fruit that can be round, oval, or pear-shaped. They're not all that common, so they might be hard to find, depending on where you live. But if you can track them down, it's more than worth it. Guavas contain more of the cancer-fighting antioxidant lycopene than any other fruit or vegetable, and nearly 20 percent more than tomatoes. Our bodies can't process much of the lycopene in tomatoes until they're cooked; the processing helps break down tough cell walls. However, guavas' cell structure allows the antioxidant to be absorbed whether the fruit is raw or cooked, and the whole fruit offers the nutrition without the added sodium of processed tomato products.Lycopene protects our healthy cells from free radicals that can cause all kinds of damage, including blocked arteries, joint degeneration, nervous system problems, and even cancer. Although the findings are mixed, lycopene consumption has been associated with lower rates of prostate cancer in some studies. In addition, men with prostate tumors who consumed lycopene supplements showed significant improvements, such as smaller tumors and decreased malignancy, in some studies. Lycopene has also been found to inhibit the growth of breast cancer cells, and research suggests that this antioxidant may also help protect against coronary heart disease.
This strange-looking little fruit is also packed with vitamin C and other antioxidants. Serving for serving, guava offers more than 60 percent more potassium than a banana, which can help protect against heart disease and stroke. In fact, the nutrients found in guavas have been shown to lower LDL and boost HDL cholesterol, reduce triglycerides, and lower blood pressure.
How much: Aim to eat fresh guavas as often as you can when you can find them in stores. They're not commonly available in the freezer section; and most guava juices are processed and sweetened, so they don't provide the same superior nutrition that the whole, fresh fruit does. One to two guavas a day is a good goal.
Tip:
- Opt for the red-fleshed variety if you can; both are loaded with antioxidants, but the red type has more than the white-fleshed apple guava.
Beans
Beans are a miracle food. They lower cholesterol, regulate blood sugar and insulin production, promote digestive health, and protect against cancer. If you think of fiber, protein, and antioxidants and immediately think whole grains, meat, and fruit, think again -- beans offer all three in a single package.An assortment of phytochemicals found in beans has been shown to protect cells from cancerous activity by inhibiting cancer cells from reproducing, slowing tumor growth. Researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health reported that women who consumed beans at least twice a week were 24 percent less likely to develop breast cancer, and multiple studies have tied beans to a reduced risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and breast and colon cancers.
Beans deliver a whopping amount of antioxidants, which help prevent and fight oxidative damage. In fact, the USDA's ranking of foods by antioxidant capacity places three varieties of beans (red beans, red kidney beans, and pinto beans) in the top four -- and that's among all food groups. Beans are a great source of dietary fiber, protein, and iron. They also contain the amino acid tryptophan; foods with high amounts of tryptophan can help regulate your appetite, aid in sleep, and improve your mood. Many are also rich in folate, which plays a significant role in heart health. And depending on the type of bean you choose, you'll also get decent amounts of potassium, magnesium, vitamin B1 and B2, and vitamin K. Soybeans are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids.
In Chinese medicine, various types of beans have been used to treat alcoholism, food poisoning, edema (particularly in the legs), high blood pressure, diarrhea, laryngitis, kidney stones, rheumatism, and dozens of other conditions.
How much: Aim for a minimum of two servings of beans per week.
Tip:
- Adzuki and mung beans are among the most easily digested; pinto, kidney, navy, garbanzo, lima, and black beans are more difficult to digest.
Watercress
Not only is watercress extremely nutritious, it's about as close as you can get to a calorie-free food. Calorie for calorie, it provides four times the calcium of 2 percent milk. Ounce for ounce, it offers as much vitamin C as an orange and more iron than spinach. It's packed with vitamin A and has lots of vitamin K, along with multiple antioxidant carotenoids and protective phytochemicals.The nutrients in watercress protect against cancer and macular degeneration, help build the immune system, and support bone health. The iron helps red blood cells carry oxygen to your body's tissues for energy. The phytochemicals in watercress battle cancer in three ways: killing cancer cells, blocking carcinogens, and protecting healthy cells from carcinogens. They've also been linked to lower risk for lung and esophageal cancer and can help lower your risk for other cancers.
In Chinese medicine, watercress is thought to help reduce tumors, improve night vision, and stimulate bile production (improving digestion and settling intestinal gas). It's used as a remedy for jaundice, urinary difficulty, sore throat, mumps, and bad breath.
How much: Eat watercress daily if you can. In some regions, it's more widely available during the spring and summer, when it's cultivated outdoors. But since it can also be grown hydroponically in greenhouses, you can find it year-round in many grocery stores and at your local farmer's market.
Tip:
- You can cook it, but watercress is better for you when you eat it raw. Tuck it into a sandwich in place of lettuce.
- Toss it with your favorite vegetables and eat it in a salad.
- Watercress is great in pesto -- just replace the basil with watercress -- and soups.
- Use watercress as a wonderfully detoxifying ingredient in a juice or smoothie.
Spinach
You already knew spinach was good for you, but did you know just how good? Spinach protects against eye disease and vision loss; it's good for brain function; it guards against colon, prostate, and breast cancers; it protects against heart disease, stroke, and dementia; it lowers blood pressure; it's anti-inflammatory; and it's great for bone health. Spinach has an amazing array of nutrients, including high amounts of vitamin K, calcium, vitamin A, vitamin C, folate, magnesium, and iron.A carotenoid found in spinach not only kills prostate cancer cells, it also prevents them from multiplying. Folate promotes vascular health by lowering homocysteine, an amino acid that, at high levels, raises the risk of dementia and cardiovascular disease, including heart disease and stroke. Folate has also been shown to reduce the risk of developing colorectal, ovarian, and breast cancers and to help stop uncontrolled cell growth, one of the primary characteristics of all cancers. The vitamin C and beta-carotene in spinach protect against colon cancer in addition to fighting inflammation, making them key components of brain health, particularly in older adults.
Spinach is loaded with vitamin K (one cup of cooked spinach provides 1,111 percent of the recommended daily amount!), which builds strong bones by helping calcium adhere to the bone. Spinach is also rich in lutein, which protects against age-related macular degeneration, and it may help prevent heart attacks by keeping artery walls clear of cholesterol buildup.
How much: Fresh spinach should be a daily staple in your diet. It's available in practically every grocery store, no matter where you live, it's easy to find year-round, and you'd be hard pressed to find a more nutritionally sound, versatile green. So do yourself a healthy favor and aim for a few ounces -- raw, sauteed, or lightly steamed, every day.
Tips:
- Add a handful of fresh spinach to your next fruit smoothie. It'll change the color but not the taste.
- Conventionally grown spinach is susceptible to pesticide residue; stick to organic.
Don't Let Fibromyalgia Ruin Your Sex Life
For women with fibromyalgia, aching joints and chronic fatigue can dampen romance. But you don’t have to live without sex and intimacy. Here’s how to get your love life back…
If you have fibromyalgia, one of the first things to suffer may be your sex life. After all, it’s hard to feel sexy when you’re tired and in pain.
And drugs that help manage the condition – including antidepressants and painkillers – can further dampen sex drive by affecting the production of brain chemicals that influence libido.
“Your brain is the biggest, strongest, most sensitive sex organ,” says Randy A. Fink, M.D., medical director of the Miami Center of Excellence for Obstetrics and Gynecology. “When it’s focused on pain, it can’t handle the task of igniting desire.”
Even if you want sex, fibromyalgia can sensitize nerves so much that even a graze of skin produces pain rather than pleasure.
“Women often find they’re in the mood mentally, and may even feel aroused,” Fink says. “But since the slightest touch can be painful, their body says ‘not tonight.'"
Meanwhile, that lack of sex can isolate you and your partner.
“Not being able to enjoy normal, healthy physical exchanges can be demoralizing,” says Sylvia Gearing, Ph.D., a psychologist in Plano, Texas.
Luckily, there are ways to keep the fire burning. Try these expert tips to stop fibromyalgia from stealing your love life.
Watch a romantic movie, read a racy book together, or share sexy fantasies. Talk about your sex life and the things you both enjoy.
Or try soaking in a hot tub or giving each other massages.
“There are emotional benefits to fantasizing and exercising the sensual part of the imagination,” Fink says.
“Placing pillows under a sore hip or arm while trying out different positions can help significantly,” Fink suggests.
Open the conversation with, “I know I’ve been dealing with pain, and I want to talk about ways we can still feel close to each other,” suggests clinical psychologist Sheela Raja, Ph.D., an assistant professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago.Emphasize that “what’s holding you back is fibromyalgia, not your feelings about him or your sex life,” Raja says.
If your partner is reluctant to talk about it, tell him that your purpose is to have more sex, better sex and deeper erotic bonds between you. Ask him to join you in solving the problem.
“No one wins if you try to hide your pain or symptoms,” Gearing says. “And it’s something your partner wouldn’t want either.”
But don’t pick bedtime to discuss this touchy subject. In fact, it’s best to have the “sex talk” outside of an intimate situation, Raja says.
“Wait for a quiet time when kids, work or buzzing cell phones won’t compete for attention,” she suggests.
Try scheduling a date to discuss the problem, either at home or someplace where it’s easy to talk, at a time when you’re relatively pain-free.
In fact, just starting a dialogue about how your health affects your sex drive may boost desire.
“It can feel freeing to share concerns, frustrations and fears,” Raja says.
Starting a new relationship? Before getting intimate, ask your new partner how much he knows about fibromyalgia, Raja suggests. That could open the door to conversation.
“Relaxation methods can calm pain, or reduce it enough so you can be intimate,” Fink says.
Experiment with techniques such as yoga, meditation and guided imagery to relieve sensitivity, as well as the anxiety that often accompanies fibromyalgia, he suggests.
A 2010 study at Oregon Health & Science University found that yoga significantly reduced pain, fatigue and depression in women with serious fibromyalgia symptoms.
Gentle aerobic exercise (such as swimming or brisk walking) can also help boost energy for sex, notes Lifescript women’s-health expert Janet Horn, M.D., co-author of The Smart Woman’s Guide to Midlife and Beyond (New Harbinger). Work up to 30 minutes a day, or as much as you can handle.
Some women find that certain foods and additives also spark flare-ups that make sex uncomfortable, Horn says.
Try eliminating monosodium glutamate (MSG) and nitrates (the preservatives in hot dogs and luncheon meats), aspartame (NutraSweet), caffeinated drinks and sugar.
Focus on pleasure rather than frequency. You don’t have to be a sexual Olympian to have a great time in bed. Even if you don’t have sex as often as you used to – or for as long as you used to – it can be just as amazing.
Stay in touch with your body. Keep track of times when you feel great. It might be first thing in the morning, after a relaxing bath, or an hour or so after you take a pain reliever or other medication. Those are the best moments to enjoy intimacy.
Think of it as therapy. Remind yourself that sex is nurturing for you and your partner. And it boosts endorphins, your body’s own natural painkillers. The more you have, the better.
Stay positive. Don’t beat yourself up because sex isn’t what it used to be. It’s hard to create physical pleasure when you’re in a negative mood.
Instead, concentrate on the fact that you’re still interested in sex – and that it’s still possible for you to have a great love life.

1. Share fantasies.
“Sex is a very important part of a healthy adult relationship. But intercourse isn’t the only way to be intimate,” Gearing notes.Even when you’re not ready to get together physically, there are other ways to build a connection.Watch a romantic movie, read a racy book together, or share sexy fantasies. Talk about your sex life and the things you both enjoy.
Or try soaking in a hot tub or giving each other massages.
“There are emotional benefits to fantasizing and exercising the sensual part of the imagination,” Fink says.
2. Get comfortable.
If you can make love, experiment with different sexual positions that minimize pain. Talk to your partner about the most sensitive or sore places on your body, and discuss new moves – or modifications of your favorites – that don’t put pressure on those spots.“Placing pillows under a sore hip or arm while trying out different positions can help significantly,” Fink suggests.
3. Speak your mind.
When you talk to your partner about your sexual relationship, be honest and direct.Open the conversation with, “I know I’ve been dealing with pain, and I want to talk about ways we can still feel close to each other,” suggests clinical psychologist Sheela Raja, Ph.D., an assistant professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago.Emphasize that “what’s holding you back is fibromyalgia, not your feelings about him or your sex life,” Raja says.

4. Take care of your symptoms.
You don’t have to tolerate pain that prevents sex.“Relaxation methods can calm pain, or reduce it enough so you can be intimate,” Fink says.
Experiment with techniques such as yoga, meditation and guided imagery to relieve sensitivity, as well as the anxiety that often accompanies fibromyalgia, he suggests.

5. Make the best of the situation.
Once your heart, head and body are in the mood, try Gearing’s strategies to help remain engaged in sexual activities:Focus on pleasure rather than frequency. You don’t have to be a sexual Olympian to have a great time in bed. Even if you don’t have sex as often as you used to – or for as long as you used to – it can be just as amazing.

Sex in Your 20s and 30s
Sex, sex, sex… it’s a primary focus of our 20s and 30s. Hormones are pumping, exploration is in full gear and body image is slowly but surely improving. However, sex for the younger set is far from worry-free. Here’s how to overcome some common hurdles and glide toward sexual satisfaction…
The landmark 1997 Body Image Survey by Psychology Today found that 57% of women in their 20s were dissatisfied with their bodies. If you’re singing the body image blues, you may shy away from sex, not enjoy it fully or be so convinced your partner can’t possibly like you that you focus only on his pleasure.
How can you sing a different tune?
“Women must resist the overwhelming media message that how you look is the measure of who you are as a person,” says Patricia Barthalow Koch, Ph.D., president of the Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality.
Koch, a professor of biobehavioral health, women’s studies and human sexuality at Penn State University, suggests launching a full-scale personal offensive against the airbrushed ads and stick-thin body ideals that spoil real-life sex:
Think of your body for what it does rather than how it looks (i.e. walks to work, makes breakfast, hugs your partner, or comforts a friend).
Put a positive spin on something you consider negative by celebrating it as a unique “stamp” passed down through the generations of women in your family line, whether it’s big hips or a flat chest.

“It’s a rampant misconception that most women achieve orgasm during intercourse,” says Searah Deysach, owner of Chicago’s Early to Bed, a female-friendly erotica shop. “Women’s bodies simply aren’t designed to climax from penetration.”
In fact, studies show that only about one-third of women regularly orgasm during intercourse. Another third need additional stimulation or prefer a different activity altogether and the final third rarely, if ever, get there.
If you’re suffering in silence and not coming – with him, with yourself or both – it’s time to become a detective in the case of the missing orgasm.
Most women are far more orgasmic from clitoral stimulation than from penetration, and 50% say they’ve faked an orgasm, so you’re not alone if you’re one of them. However, if you’re putting on an Academy Award-worthy performance every time you hit the sheets, it’s time to stop.
Sex therapists like Ian Kerner, Ph.D., author She Comes First (Regan Books, 2004), recommend that you don’t tell your partner you’ve been faking. Instead, make a fresh start. Tell him you want to try something new. Use Kerner’s book as a conversation starter, or just happen to leave a copy on the coffee table so he picks it up without you having to ask him to.
If you want to try for an intercourse orgasm, Deysach suggests using a small vibrator to help yourself along. “Vibrating cock rings are best for this,” she says. “It’s a flexible ring a guy wears on his penis during intercourse to provide hands-free stimulation to the clitoris.”
If he’s not sold on the idea of wearing one, try stimulating the clitoris with your (or his) fingers. Experiment with intercourse positions that cause his penis to rub up against your clitoris, like you on top or rear entry while you’re lying down.
Orgasm troubles are often the result of inhibition and shame from societal double standards, well-intentioned parents, less-than-well-intentioned parents, or abuse. Some women may not even recognize an orgasm, since the big O isn’t always the screaming Sharon Stone variety.
You’ve heard it before, but masturbation holds the key to a surprising number of our sexual woes. “The number one reason a woman can’t let go and enjoy sex with a partner is because she hasn’t masturbated,” Deysach says. “It’s much harder to relax and reach orgasm if you haven’t already brought yourself down that path.”
A couple of how-to books can help: Dr. Sadie Allison’s Tickle Your Fancy (Tickle Kitty Press, 2001) and the newly released I Love Female Orgasm (Marlowe & Company, 2007) by Dorian Solot and Marshall Miller.
Or shut the shades and try a vibrator. Remember, the average woman takes 20-30 minutes to reach orgasm. Deysach suggests a simple bullet shape for adjustable, direct stimulation that keeps going and going… and going.
Lexy Zissu, co-author of The Complete Organic Pregnancy (Collins, 2006) and a new mom herself, says new parents need to lower their expectations and simply carve out time together to maintain intimacy. “Instead of focusing on sex and the overwhelming pressure [to perform], just set aside time to hang out and talk. Nap the baby in the carrier and take a walk while he or she is sleeping. Or lay in bed and just look at each other.”
Once you’ve recovered from the delivery and breastfeeding is no longer your baby’s only source of nutrition, you’ll start to feel your body coming back to life. Encourage it by having sex.
However, don’t expect your lovemaking to be like it used to be, Zissu warns. “Sex becomes a different, shorter experience,” she says. Often foreplay is minimal and “there are no more long nights of kissing and wine and romance. You do it and hope [the baby doesn’t] wake up!”
But no matter how time-crunched and tired you are, it’s important to stay focused on sex and the connection between you and your partner. Find a dependable babysitter or grandparent to fill the breach long enough for you and your hubby to take a night off now and then. Check into a hotel or at least enjoy a romantic dinner for two.
And don’t worry about the sorry state of your sex life; it’s temporary. The older your kids get, the more time you’ll have together to rediscover all the old pleasures that made sex great – like romance and foreplay.
Body Image Blues
While a 20-something woman’s body might be primed to take her to the heights of orgasmic bliss, her mind is often stuck repeating the same, self-deprecating track: I hate my thighs… If only I weighed 20 pounds less… I bet his ex had perfect abs.The landmark 1997 Body Image Survey by Psychology Today found that 57% of women in their 20s were dissatisfied with their bodies. If you’re singing the body image blues, you may shy away from sex, not enjoy it fully or be so convinced your partner can’t possibly like you that you focus only on his pleasure.

The Case of the Missing Orgasm
Maybe body-image blues aren’t the main source of frustration or insecurity in your sex life. The inability to orgasm is the primary sex issue for many women (and the men who love them).“It’s a rampant misconception that most women achieve orgasm during intercourse,” says Searah Deysach, owner of Chicago’s Early to Bed, a female-friendly erotica shop. “Women’s bodies simply aren’t designed to climax from penetration.”
In fact, studies show that only about one-third of women regularly orgasm during intercourse. Another third need additional stimulation or prefer a different activity altogether and the final third rarely, if ever, get there.

The Good Girl
If you haven’t had an orgasm in a while or aren’t sure if you’ve ever experienced one, it’s time to get in touch with your own body.Orgasm troubles are often the result of inhibition and shame from societal double standards, well-intentioned parents, less-than-well-intentioned parents, or abuse. Some women may not even recognize an orgasm, since the big O isn’t always the screaming Sharon Stone variety.

Oh, Baby!
Motherhood is tough on your siren status. Immediately after you have a baby, sex-friendly hormones plummet and the nurturing hormone oxytocin spikes, which makes you want to nest, not get frisky. Lack of sleep and adjusting to a new lifestyle don’t exactly pave the way to sexual bliss either.Lexy Zissu, co-author of The Complete Organic Pregnancy (Collins, 2006) and a new mom herself, says new parents need to lower their expectations and simply carve out time together to maintain intimacy. “Instead of focusing on sex and the overwhelming pressure [to perform], just set aside time to hang out and talk.

Body Image: Do You Need A Boost?
Many women – young and old – struggle with body image, a key part of enjoying sex. While weight worries may tempt you to dim the lights, dissatisfaction with your body shouldn't distract you from having a great time in bed. It's about what your body can do, not just how it looks. Once you love your shape as much as your partner likely does, sexual satisfaction is sure to take on a whole new meaning. Take our body image quiz to find out if yours could use a boost.
