HGH

What is HGH? Why does some people need it?

I had to research on this one because I bought my mom some medication for her joints which had hgh on the label. I never knew what it was until lately. I thought it was some kind of chemical compound added to medications to alleviate joint pain.

HGH is Human Growth Hormone which is secreted by the pituitary gland. It aids in reversing the effects of ageing, improves mental and physical health, and provides energy. It also aids metabolism and reduction of body fat.

Too Early for THAT!

Yes, I know. I just turned 38 few days ago and I am acting like a lunatic. Is it too soon for me to get depression treatment due to the fact that I am in my late 30s? Few years from now, I will be a certified member of the Over-the-hills Club. Later on, I will be filling up forms for "senior citizen" discount cards and memberships! What???

Okay, I am being a Drama Queen again which is my usual self most of the time. I just hope I won't lose my sanity when I turn 39 next year.

Beauty Tip 101 - Skip the Sunbed

I know, this is the perfect time to get that longed-for tan but words to the wise - skip the sunbeds!

Although a sunbed does not expose the body to UVB rays but it can cause burning and premature ageing. Why is that? It is because the UVA rays present in sunbeds are so strong. Skip the fake tan and opt for a natural tan under the sun. Make sure you slather your strongest sunscreen lotion. Take the early morning sun probably until 8 which is still bearable. Beyond that will just be too harsh.
