Children's Sun Safety 101 - The Summer Essentials
As adults, we all know that too much exposure to the sun can not only be painful and irritating on your skin, but can lead to permanent skin damage, premature aging, and worse of all, skin cancer. While these may seem like intense consequences to burden a child with, as a parent, you can bear this responsibility on their behalf until they are more better able to understand such consequences.

Should I brush my teeth when I wake up?
Brush your teeth before or after breakfast? You've certainly run into someone who didn't have the same habit as you do about it. If you prefer to brush your teeth after coffee, for example, you may have heard that you are swallowing bacteria from your mouth. But does that really happen?

Staying Active & Healthy
Dreaded heat that makes your blood boil. Hot days where you just want to live in a pool. In the state of the world where everyone is isolated by many & shelter inside, our everyday routine is altered. Rushing for air we walk along the streets to see what would seem normal but the aftermath of what is still dormant. Feeling so slow & sluggish it is difficult to not just find the motivation to work out & be active but the find the confidence & thrive to keep going.

Health, fitness and nutrition
Let's just start with the fact that for a lot of people, weight is a personal choice. I've seen a lot of criticism recently towards people who take health and fitness seriously. Namely towards people who train numerous hours per week and watch what and how much they eat, all in order to feel and look a certain way. A way that makes them happy, a way that they wish to look like. They make daily choices that take them closer to their goals and they don't compromise on their priorities. They don't make up excuses...they find ways how to accomplish their goals because it's important for them. Yet, a lot of people are criticizing them for promoting this certain lifestyle because it 'shames fat people' or is 'fat-phobic' or some other bullshit excuse why fitness people are bad and toxic. Well, I've had enough of these whiny lazy people who try drag others down just because they don't have the willpower or discipline to put in the hard work necessary to lose weight and improve one's body. And I'm not saying that everyone should be into fitness and health or that everyone should lose weight and eat less or anything like that. But then those people should not criticize those who do wish to eat and look a certain way.

My Experience with the Chemical Diet
Not many people have heard of the Chemical Diet, where you can lose weight fast. I hadn't heard of it myself until I read about it on James Duncan's blog site. I was sure it was a scam until I tried it and lost weight fast! So, I looked into it and couldn't find much about it except for it being mentioned on the Netmums website, and I read the comments from people who have tried the Chemical Diet, who claimed to have lost weight fast within the first week. At first, I thought it wasn't something that would work, but I was wrong!
