Healthy Sleep: Rilax Zzz

With waking up for sahur and adjusting to new meal times, our usual sleep pattern may differ during the holy month. This temporary interruption to your usual sleep times may cause you to find it difficult to go to sleep at a new time, or even to get enough hours of sleep every night.

Besides adjusting your sleeping pattern by going to bed early so that you can wake up for sahur and still get an adequate amount of sleep, why not also try Rilax Zzz. With over 2 million capsules sold, Rilax Zzz is Malaysia’s award-winning, best-selling sleep supplement developed by LiveLife Bio Sciences AG, Switzerland. A safe product that doesn’t cause drowsiness and is non-habit forming, the two main relax-inducing ingredients in this all-natural supplement are Latium, an extract of milk; and L-theanine, a caffeine-free extract of green tea. By taking just 1-2 capsules an hour before bed, Rilax Zzz helps set the mood for you to get a more quality night of rest. With better sleep, you’ll have better energy in the day to carry on with daily activities even though you’re fasting!

Healthy Gut - TruDtox

It’s only normal during that when it’s finally time to break your fast, most of us tend to ‘go big’ with our meals, as a well-deserved reward at the end of the day. However, with reduced water intake throughout the day, the sudden consumption of big meals at iftar can be a shock to our stomachs, leading to gas, feeling bloated and constipation

By binging at iftar, your stomach may start to feel unbalanced. By consuming a hot-brewed cup of TruDtox tea, you can support your bowel health by flushing your natural detox functions to maintain a cleaner, healthier and lighter gut. With a comprehensive and proprietory blend of imported high-quality European herbs, floras and teas, TruDtox is a botanical tea free of harsh laxatives such as senna, and is classified by the Malaysian Ministry of Health as a food product. Be sure to also take a few sachets of TruDtox with you when you balik kampong for Raya, as it would do wonders in keeping your tummy feeling healthy while you feast yourself at various open houses!

Skin Saver - Marine Elements™

Is the reduced liquid intake during Ramadhan making your skin feel dry and itchy? When not drinking enough water, everything from washing and wiping yourself can cause dry skin and even other conditions such as parched cuticles around your fingernails. Keep your skin moisturized with the hypoallergenic Marine Elements™ Body Lotion that can help soften the skin’s surface, allowing moisture and nutrients to penetrate deep down. With the patented Zonase X™ active ingredient which contains natural proteins and enzymes, your skin’s moisture will be replenished, reducing any negative effects such as inflammation or itchiness.

Marine Elements™ is great for anyone with eczema and dry skin. Marine Elements™ products are suitable for all skin types and with a range of products that include Body Wash, Body Lotion and Intensive Cream.

Skin Saver - Novexpert Booster Serum with Hyaluronic Acid

The star product and bestseller of French skincare brand Novexpert from Paris, the Booster Serum with Hyaluronic Acid is your skin’s best friend. Lack of water intake when fasting can cause the skin on your face, lips and neck to dehydrate, which can lead to other skin conditions such as sagging skin and chapped lips. Try this Booster Serum with Hyaluronic Acid to help supplement your skin with what it’s missing from your daily diet. This product works on any skin type whether man or woman with dehydrated, sensitive, oily or tired skin and leaves your skin repulped, plumper and more moisturized.

What Does the Poop Say?

Let's analyze... stools. We know that it may not be your favorite topic but it is certainly worth taking the few seconds to learn about it and inspect your "goods". You'll be surprise as it can very well tell you about your health. Before you flush... 

 

 

No, you don't have to touch to analyze your stools, you'll just need to observe the color, texture, shape, size and maybe, a little sniff. All these are indicators of how well you're doing on the inside and there's really nothing... to be embarrassed about. 

 

Your stools are the end result of all your food and nutrient intake, what your body does not need, it eliminates. Your stool consist of mostly water, undigested food (fibre), bacteria and dead cells from your intestines. Taking a close look at your stools may help you to make the right choices to improve your digestive system and improve overall health. 

 

The Color
A normal stool is generally brown due to its composites.

 

Red stools might indicate bleeding (unless you ate beet root or any thing else of that sort). If your the color is bright red, it may mean that there may be a tear around the anus and passing out stools would usually be painful. If this is the case, it is highly suggested that you increase your fruits, vegetable and water intake to help to soften the stools. Darker red could be more of a concern as it may be a bleeding somewhere in your digestive system. You should consult a doctor immediately. 

 

Black stools might indicate that there is severe internal bleeding, or may be because of heavy meat consumption or bismuth-containing compounds.

 

Light or grey stools are symptoms of liver disease and decreased bile output. Medications may have also caused the color to change.

 

If you have noticed a color change in your stools, evaluate what you have eaten and if it persists, consult your doctor immediately.

 

The Shape & Size
Good things don't necessarily come in small packages. Size does matter. The more, the merrier - when it comes to your poop!

 

Many doctors use the Bristol stool chart (Meyers scale) to classify stools. The shape and size of the stool is useful to measure transit time - how long it takes for your food to travel through your digestive tract. 

As seen in the Bristol Chart above, Type 1 & 2 indicate constipation and is straneous to pass as stools are usually dry and hard. You may be having bowel movements, lots of gas and bloating but the feeling of incomplete pooping still lingers. Your stools are pellet-like, hard and dry, this would indicate that there isn't enough fibre and water in your body. Certain medications can also cause constipation. By changing your diet, increasing your fruits, water and fibre intake and it might just help you pass with ease.

 

Type 3 & 4 are ideal stools and is softer, smoother and easy to pass. Every time you pass a type 4 stool, congratulate yourself and give yourself a pat on your shoulder. Continue to eat your fruits and drink lots of water.

 

Type 5 - 7 would indicate the severity of a diarrhoea. It could be a form of an infection or an intolerance towards certain kinds of food.

 

The Smell
Most of the time, it is just a smell of a byproduct but if is a foul smell, you may have to consult a doctor as it may be a symptom of an infection or a disorder.

 

 

Pooping makes you happy... when you know what you don't need is excreting out from your body. It's like a burden well-lifted and then you feel... light!

 

Constipation and bloating can cause you to be lethargic and so uneasy, pimples may start popping out too. Here are some tips on how you can avoid painful trips: 

 

1 Change your eating habits Make friends with fruits, vegetables and some oats. Have some yogurt for breakfast and maybe a smoothie for tea too, perhaps?

2 Fix a time every day A routine can help to regulate bowel movement.

3 Keep yourself hydrated Water helps your body to function well and helps to regulate bowel movements. Drink about 1.5 litres of water daily.

4 Abdominal exercises or sit ups One of the key risk of constipation is inactivity. Exercising can help to decrease the time it takes for food to travel through your intestines and helps your stools to move quickly.

5 Get natural help Herbs like ginger, lemongrass, peppermint, or chamomile are traditionally used to ease bloatedness or constipation. TruDtox works gently to cleanse and strengthen your body's digestive system. By taking TruDtox once or twice a week, you will soon feel cleaner and healthier.

Chinese New Year Waistline

Q

Question
What does Pineapple Tarts, Bak Gua, Love Letters, Nian Gao, Fortune Cookies,
Tapioca Flour Cookies, Honeycomb all have in common?

 

 

A

Answer
They make you fat and.......decrease your bowel movement!

 

All the goodies mentioned above makes our appetite and waistline increase, making not-snacking almost an impossible task! "Aiya, it's only once a year" or "久久一次" are often Malaysian's excuses for overindulging. Guilty as charged! Simply consuming a few pieces of the goodies can throw off your diet for the entire year (maybe a few years).

 

Remember this, consuming all those goodies is effortless and trying to shed it off is going to take 888% effort. What's more? Your body may feel bloated and indigestion and bowel irregularity may just be the start of many other problems that are yet to come.

 

Here are some charts we have gathered from different websites so you can take a closer look at those calories you're consuming. Well, at least you know and will hopefully think twice then probably ignore when you see all those goodies laying in front of you.

 

Chart 1

 

Fortune cookies will increase your fortune....sideways!

 

 

Chart 2

 

If you eat all those mentioned in Jade's Guide in one day, you have had 2 burgers, 4 slices of pizza, 2 chicken wings, 2 medium whipped potato and 2 cartons of medium fries! *shudders*

 

 

Chart 3

 

Her World Plus says: 5 Pineapple tarts equals to 2 bowls of rice. Wait, what??? 

 

 

WHY DO YOU FEEL BLOATED
Did you know that it takes about 8 to 10 hours of food to reach your colon? One bowel movement a per day isn't enough to flush everything you consume and your three days worth of meals are still lingering in your colon. Especially during this festive season, your digestive system has to work even harder to digest all the goodies you ate. In human terms, it's called abusing your digestive system.

 

Long intestinal transit time causes putrefying food in our intestines and colon to ferment, thus producing a lot of intestinal gas - a common source of discomfort for many people.

 

Especially more during this festive season, it's HIGHLY recommended that you undergo a total body detoxification with TruDtox only 2 or 3 times a week so you can cleanse your body and relieve your digestive system from abuse. Detoxification can be very beneficial to your health and can prevent the accumulation of toxins in your body.

 

TruDtox is natural, safe and gentle that works 8 - 10 hours after consumption. What we love about it is that we can plan when to sit on the water closet. Best drank before you sleep so you can wake up early in the morning and relieve your bowels, making you feeling light, clean and refreshed!

 

TruDtox comes in 2 different formulas:

TruDtox ThermoG is with added green tea to help you detox and at the same time reduce unsightly stubborn bulges. Together with a balanced diet and exercise plan, ThermoG can help speed up your Chinese New Year weight gain. 

 

Available in 2 different packs of five teabags and 17 teabags at pharmacies nationwide or on www.lazada.com.my and www.plincco.com.

Detox For Better Health

With stress, toxins in our food and the pollution in the environment that we continuously face, regular detoxification is a crucial step towards good health, youthfulness and vitality.

The body starts to re-tox as soon as we complete a detox programme, so we incorporate a regular detox routine two to three times a week.

It's only when toxins get recirculated in our blood stream that trouble starts - it eventually compromises our immune system and may explain symptoms like chronic fatigue and other degenerative diseases.

Frequent Detox

Says chief operating officer or Livelife, Aileen Chan, "We did not expect to win the Best Selling SKU Award as TruDtox was only launched in 2007. We have our customers to thank for their loyalty and support. We believe that a product's effectiveness is always its strongest testament."

The difference of TruDtox lies in its comprehensive fusion of organically-cultivated herbs, flora and teas which release a synergistic action that is both safe and gentle yet effectively purifies and cleans the body. Many consumers are delighted by results such as lighter, cleaner sensation, better fitting clothes and having higher energy levels throughout the day. 

Harnessing Full Herbal Synergy
TruDtox contains a special blend of organic herbs which together in precise amounts is a powerful synergistic detox and healing effect that goes beyond colon cleansing.

Fasting it Right!

During the month of Ramadan, changes happen in the eating pattern and choice of food for most people. It is so easy to indulge in meals that are high in carbohydrates and sweet foods, in the form of two large meals dawn and sunset. Keep in mind that fasting and breaking fast the right way can lead to good health.

Starving vs Fasting
Our body glucose, which is stored in the liver, is our first source of energy. During a fast, glucose is used first to provide energy but once glucose runs out, it causes the fat in the body to breakdown, becoming the next source of energy. When a fast is prolonged to several days or weeks (starvation), the body then uses the body’s protein for energy and this can be detrimental to health.

Ramadan fasting is not starving simply because fast is broken every dusk.

 

 

How to Break a Fast Without a Fuss?
Introduce your body to fruits and vegetables to break a fast. Foods that are easily digested can help you to avoid gastrointestinal problems. Introduce regular foods slowly and strategically will help you to break a fast safely. Overeating certain foods too quickly may cause indigestion or nausea.

Is Your Health Deteriorating Lately?

"Something is definitely amiss as these problems are not ‘normal’ aging problems, but rather the result of malfunctioning detoxification systems – an inability to cope with the body’s toxic load.”

~ Dr Frank Lipman, detoxification specialist and author of Total Renewal

‘These problems’ referred to cancers, chronic fatigue, aches, pains, chemical sensitivities, infertility and degenerative problems. With today’s unhealthy lifestyle, the incidence of toxicity diseases has become a much greater concern in this century than ever before.

A toxin is any substance that creates irritating and/or harmful effects in the body, undermining our health. We are exposed to toxins daily through the air, food, water and environmental conditions. Internally, our body produces toxins through its normal everyday functions.

Clearly, a normal functioning body can handle certain levels of toxins; the concern is with excess intake or production of toxins or a reduction in the processes of elimination. Through detoxification, we clear toxins and wastes from the body, thereby allowing our body to work on enhancing healthy functions and preventing further health problems.

Symptoms of Toxicity:

• Headaches, fatigue, weakness, muscle/joint aches and pains
• Brain fog, poor concentration, irritability, depression, mood swings
• Allergies, stuffy nose, coughing
• Rashes, itching, hives, skin problems
• Digestive symptoms / Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) / gastrointestinal upset
• Sensitivities to chemicals, foods, drugs

Toxicity May Cause:

• Cancer, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, autoimmune diseases
• Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS), infertility
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS),
• Chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia
• Psoriasis, eczema, acne

No-Fuss Ways to Detoxify :

• Eat plenty of fiber, including brown rice and organically-grown fresh fruits and vegetables.
• Drink at least eight glasses of water daily.
• Breathe deeply to allow more complete circulation of oxygen through your system.
• Take control of stress and stay positive.
• Sweat it out through exercise like yoga and qi-gong.
• Be proactive and choose TruDtox^® to complement your detoxification efforts.

Unlike other cleansing formulas, TruDtox^® is a special blend of organic herbs that create a powerful synergistic detox and healing effect, yet is a natural and traditional as it gets, thanks to its naturally-grown ingredients. Take a daily serving of warm, soothing TruDtox^® botanical tea to start noticing good changes in your body.

Lax Face the Facts

Abuse of Laxatives
Doctors tend to prescribe laxatives either to solve a medical symptom or to prepare for a medical exam such as a colonoscopy. It is not meant to solve the root cause of a medical problem.

Laxatives, while being able to provide quick relief, should be avoided because they are counter productive to establishing regularity, can be habit forming and they have undesirable side effects.

1. Laxatives Constipate & Promote Dependency
Over use of laxatives can damage the colon, cause constipation, and promote dependency especially when used long term. Laxatives can also cause imbalances in bodily fluids, lead to complications in other parts of the body, and interfere with the therapeutic action of other medications or intensify toxic effects. Laxatives can mask the signs and symptoms of other medical conditions that may require attention. This is why laxative use is generally not recommended.

2. Laxatives Weaken Colon Muscles
The purgative action of stimulant laxatives interferes and weakens normal colonic muscular actions which play a part in fluid absorption, particle cohesion, stool formation, stool transit, and stool passage (defecation). If these muscles become weak, stool transit is slowed.

3. Harmful Side Effects
In a short period of time, over use of laxatives can dry out the colon lining, weaken colon muscles, and damage colon nerves. The colon can become insensitive, instestinal motility can slow, normal processes fail, and, as a result, chronic constipation can develop.

Excessive use in the long run may cause abdominal pain, low energy, thirst, dry eyes, headaches, dehydration, weight loss and even damage to other organs. The side effects reported include confusion, irregular heartbeat, muscle cramps, skin rash, unusual tiredness or weakness, belching, cramping, diarrhea and nausea.

The Need for Regularity
Myths about constipation and the preoccupation with achieving daily bowel movement have led to a serious abuse of stimulant laxatives. Let's find out how regularity is defined.

Healthy regularity is the comfortable passage (without straining) of well formed stools (neither too hard, nor too soft) once every day or every two to three days without the use of laxatives, or other interventions. Bowel function is uniqe and varies from individual to individual.

3 Regularity Tips
Here are 3 effective ways you can achieve your own regularity safely and naturally!

1. Get Moving
Movements such as stretching or walking stimulate bowel activity and promote regularity as well as good health.

2. Respond when Nature Calls
Respond promptly when nature "calls". If you are no longer getting the urge, try toileting 45 minutes every meal. Gently massage your abdomen with your palm in a circular motion.

3. Daily Servings
A daily serving of TruDtox^® botanical tea blend will help improve stool transit time and promote regularity by rejuvenating your natural detoxification organs.

Just one serving of TruDtox^® per day can help you get going... NATURALLY!

The BETTER Alternative to Laxatives...
TruDtox^® is a laxative alternative that is not addictive. It contains no chemicals, no stimulants, not even senna. Just an organic blend of botanicals to help you achieve regularly naturally. There is nothing to make you run to the bathroom and nothing that will interfere with medications. And, unlike laxatives that can damage the colon, TruDtox^® works with the body gently, naturally and gradually, over time to help heal and rejuvenate your colon and other detoxification organs, without promoting dependency.

Gentle even for Daily Use
Individuals with a wide variety of temporary and chronic disorders have benefited from healthy bowel benefits of TruDtox^®. A light and aromatic tea, award-wining and best-selling TruDtox^® optimizes digestion and supports all the digestive organ functions such as the GI tract, liver, kidneys, blood and intestines. Used daily, TruDtox^® can help to maintain results after a cleanse or for overall digestive support.

Body Cleansing Herbs

One of the buzzwords that you may frequently come across these days is the term "detox". Commonly spoken by the lips of health conscious people, it is a short form of the world detoxification and quite simply means removing toxic elements from the body. It has become an increasingly important thing to do nowadays, what more with the existence of more and more pollution in the environment as well as many processed foods containing substances that actually do much harm to the body.

In actual fact, your body already has the mechanism for performing detoxification activities within itself by means of the kidney and liver. However, considering the amount of toxins that enter an average individual's body, it would even greatly improve the performance of your immune system if you had a regular detox routine for yourself as well.

The best way to detox is by the use of natural elements. Here are some example of herbs that are known to have cleansing and detox organ strengthening purposes:

Besides that, it helps to keep morning and motion sickness at bay.
03 Rose Hips This refers to the pods that grow at the base of a rose and they are left behind after the bloom has died. They are rich in vitamins C, A, D, E and K as well as flavinoids (anti-oxidants). From a medicinal viewpoint, it provides relief for headaches and dizziness, besides also preventing bladder infections.	04 Chamomile A very well known and widely used herb, it has many uses and benefits. Among other things, it acts as a good sleep aid, as it helps you to relax. It can also be used a mild painkiller and improves the body's digestive processes.

How To Restore Healthy Weight & Vibrant Health

Ever heard of this? Think about what it means! According to Carrel, cells do not deteriorate or grow old if the elimination of wastes and proper nutrients are maintained.

The 7 secrets to total health is all about 'immortalising your cells' so that you can live a long, healthy, prosperous life!

1. Deal with Causes Rather Than Symptoms!
Take the necessary steps to reverse the underlying causes leading to illness versus just treating and suppressing symptoms.

2. Learn What To Eat and what NOT To Eat
Choose to eat foods that contain live enzymes, life force and nutrients. "Foods" that lack these elements form acids, causing toxins and mucous that congest the intestinal tract. Years on an acidic diet results in a hardened layer of plaque over your entire digestive tract called mucoid fecal plaque. This contributes towards more than 90% of the obstacles to optimal health.

3. Get Your Body Alkaline
Most people today have and over acid body, primarily from a diet of acid-forming foods and stress. It's difficult to be acid free and totally healthy. Becoming acidic is one of the first steps toward illness. Stress alone may create the over acidity which leads to mucoid plaque. And stress often prompts deviation from a good diet as the person seeks comfort or quick energy through acid-forming foods.

4. Eliminate Congestion Anywhere & Everywhere From The Body
Let it be known that there is no single part of the body that is not affected by the whole. So, all congestion and toxins must be removed, and it must begin with cleansing of the bowel.

Why Cleanse the Bowel?
Bowel movements are the basis of your health. If you don't have daily bowel movements, you are likely making your toward ill-health with a fertile breeding ground for serious diseases. A good health regime should always begin by removing the waste in your colon, the last stage in your food processing chain. The longer your body is exposed to putrefying food in your intestines, the greater the risk of developing disease.

5. Remove the Mucoid Plaque From the Digestive System
Even a thin layer of mucoid plaque weakens the body. Nature intended mucoid plaque to be sloughed off. But due to stress and diet, most of us have many hardened layers of mucoid plaque.

6. Establish Friendly Intestinal Bacteria
Good bacteria help you digest your food. A normal bowel movement consists of about 40 percent bacteria. Bad bacteria can cause indigestion, gas and breakdown of the digestive process. Proper bacteria are essential to a strong immune system as well as digestion. They help:

• Regulate blood cholesterol
• Create balanced pH in the intestines
• Maintain a strong immune system
• Creates Vitamin B-12 in your body
• Increase calcium assimilation

To establish friendly bacteria, proper supplementation is crucial. Be sure to look out for supplements such as probiotic to help maintain a healthy balance of beneficial bacteria for better digestion and immune health.

7. Develop Balanced, Healthy, Uplifting Thoughts and Emotions
Science has already proven the importance of the mind/body connection. Handling the thoughts and emotions first is essential. It's probably the most important thing you can do. I know it's easier said than done... partly because it's difficult to feel good when your body is toxic.

Once you get your body pure and happy, your thoughts and emotions follow because the mind and body are connected. What you can do to stay emotionally positive is to regulate your daily stress levels. These days, stress features more persistently in our lifestyles - it's more to do with managing relationships and emotional dynamics like thoughts and feelings rather than physical life-threatening scenarios.

Why Proper Nutrition & Detoxification Will Restore Healthy Weight & Dramatically Improve Your Health!

• More energy, strength, endurance
• better health/stronger immunity
• improved digestion
• weight stabilization
• Freedom from negative thoughts and feelings
