Christine Heathman, LMT, ME, Author, Industry Innovator, Educator, and CEO and Founder of GlyMed Plus Institute of Skin Science, today announced the launch of her Cell Science Stem Cell Power Serum which gives skin the long-term ability to protect the longevity of cells, combat chronological aging, and gives cells the ability to act younger.
According to Christine Heathman she says the concept is as simple as comparing apples to apples by putting a regular apple on the counter with the rare Uttwiler Spatlauber apple. A regular apple will decay but the rare apple will last months longer. Simply said, if you compare a plant cell with a human skin cell you will find that they are almost identical. Christine says that this means the ingredient in the rare apple has been proven to aid cell level repair in plants and in humans.

If “love is never having to say you’re sorry,” true love must be “never letting your sweetheart consume unhealthy fats.” So says nutritionist Sue Canonico, R.D. who offers some great tips for February, American Heart Month.
“About every 25 seconds, an American will have a coronary event,” notes Canonico. “Many of the heart attacks, the most common form of heart disease, will be among baby boomers, who dated when the movie ‘Love Story’ with its memorable line about love and being sorry was in the theaters. Fortunately, there are ways to avoid the heartbreak that comes with losing a loved one to coronary disease.
Some are just simple adjustments to daily recipes, such as substituting extra virgin olive oil for butter, margarine and less healthy cooking oils. Others are focusing on additional aspects of the Mediterranean Diet, such as eating fruits, vegetables and fish, and getting in some daily exercise.”

Despite the current economic times, Keola Lorenzo, 17, reached out to the plastic surgery community in hopes of finding a surgeon with a humanitarian spirit. He was looking for someone, who could not only correct his life-long concern of protruding ears, but also to consider his difficult economical situation.
Dr. Joseph Cruise, board certified plastic surgeon, Newport Beach, Calif., gave him the ultimate gift of confidence by performing his Otoplasty Surgery pro-bono. The surgery not only enhanced his self-esteem, but also restored his hope that even in a recession, there are those who are still willing to give back and help others.
The condition of protruding ears starts at birth and is due to a congenital lack of curvature of the cartilage within the ear. Otoplasty helps to reposition the ears so that they lay flat against the scalp in a natural fashion, without drawing unwanted attention.

It’s a common scenario. A pregnant woman, who has carefully examined her options for birth – capturing all her wishes and preferences in a birth plan – realizes that her healthcare provider is not accustomed to providing the kind of care she wants. Her birth plan does not match her provider’s practice style.
To help women avoid this frustrating situation, the American College of Nurse-Midwives (ACNM), with funding from the A.C.N.M. Foundation, Inc., has developed an interactive, online quiz, www.DeliverMyBaby.org, to help mothers-to-be take the first step toward choosing the best care provider that matches their needs.
DeliverMyBaby.org, asks women for general information about their health status, and helps them explore their preferences in maternity care. Each woman’s answers are then calculated to generate a recommended type of care provider to consider. Answers are not recorded and the quiz is anonymous, so women can explore their options in privacy.

Starting a diet and workout regimen to lose weight and get healthy is one of the most popular New Year’s resolutions and probably the shortest lived. Why? Because most diets focus on elimination and denial, when in reality, getting healthy is about including more of the foods that are good for you.
Mythbuster: Dieters mistakenly believe that they have to eliminate red meat to live a heart healthy lifestyle and lose weight. Resolution-makers rejoice: with less than 9 grams of fat per serving, AHA certified Laura’s Lean Beef makes biting into a juicy burger a gulit-free pleasure that’s actually good for you, according to dieticians and nutritionists.
With Laura’s Lean Beef, an averaged size burger contributes less than 10 percent of calories to a 2,000-calorie diet, yet it supplies more than 10 percent of the recommended Daily Value for protein, zinc, vitamin B12, selenium, phosphorous, niacin, vitamin B6, iron and riboflavin.

When a woman starts going through menopause, her entire life can change without warning. Menopause symptoms can cause undesirable reactions in the body that runs the gamut from hot flashes and weight gain to mood swings, sleeplessness and irritability. These menopause signs cause women to feel different as well as look different, since skin’s elasticity and overall vitality decrease dramatically with the onset of these menopause symptoms.
In lieu of taking hormone replacement therapies to treat menopause signs, more and more women are turning to natural menopause remedies for a safer solution that is just as effective.
Women who have tried Don’t Pause are gaining back their former vitality, energy, and physiques thanks to the natural menopause remedy’s key ingredients. Aside from pomegranate extract and green tea, Don’t Pause also contains selenium, Phytoestrogens, Black Cohosh and chromium Picolinate, all of which play tremendous roles in combating the effects of aging.
The Anti Aging Institute of California’s Dr. Ershadi stands behind Don’t Pause as one of the best natural menopause remedies available, and invites women suffering from symptoms like menopause weight gain and menopause hot flashes to give Don’t Pause a try. Without risky addition hormones, Don’t Pause can make life during menopause worth enjoying.
