Bumps on your eyelids??

Do you have trouble applying eyeshadow because of little yellowish bumps on your eyelids?

This could be a sign that you have higher levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol and blood triglycerides.

And lower levels of HDL (good) cholesterol

People with these bumps are 48% more likely to have a heart attack within the next 30 years than those without.

Even if your blood tests come back normal, you could still be at risk.

Its a sign that your body deposits cholesterol where you don't want it - i.e. in your blood vessels. 

So if you have those bumps, talk to you doctor!

Fight the Flu Part 4

Sick of hot water with lemon?

Drink hot water with 1-2 Tbsp of Brewers Yeast

It might be pretty gross and bitter BUT it can help fight off the flu, diarrhea, and respiratory illness.

It is packed full of B vitamins - B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B5 (pantothenic acid), B6 (pyridoxine), B9 (folic acid), and H or B7 (biotin).  (but no Vit.B12 -which is found in meat products)

It can also help support the nervous system, help maintain the muscles used for digestion, and keep skin, hair,(it may even prevent the graying of hair) eyes, mouth, and liver healthy.

If you are taking any medications though, make sure to talk to your doctor before you start taking brewers yeast because it can interact with a lot of medications.

It also has not been tested on children - so maybe still with the hot lemon for the kids!
