Healthy foods are not always popular. However, you can make these foods taste great with little trouble. If you would rather eat fruit-flavored products instead of trying to force down real fruit, you should use this information to motivate yourself.

There are a lot of healthy foods that will prevent wrinkles and the other signs of aging. You an actually make yourself look younger and prolong your life by eating healthy. So next time you are in the mood for something salty, grab a handful of nuts instead of that peanut butter crunch bar. So this doesn’t sound as good? Maybe it will by the time you are finished reading this.

If you want to fight the effects age has on you, then add the following foods to your diet:

• Oranges and other types of citrus
Oranges and other citrus and extremely high in vitamin C. When it comes to healing wrinkles and cracks in your skin, vitamin C is one of the best healers. Topical vitamin C is widely used in anti-aging products. But you must be able to heal from within too and if you eat oranges you will get a huge dose of vitamin C.

• Walnuts
Walnuts are loaded with antioxidants. Which makes them good providers of cancer fighting compounds. Not only will they impede skin cancer from developing, but can fight other types of environmental weathering.

• Green tea
Green tea is yet another wonderful source for antioxidants.

• Almonds
Almonds are very well known for the amount of vitamin E they contain. When you apply vitamin E topically it can actually lighten scars and stretch marks. Age spots will disappear when using vitamin E topically. However, when taken internally vitamin E can help prevent the formation of these marks in the first place.

(Note: taking vitamin E can affect any surgeries you may have coming up, so ask your doctor what the appropriate amount to take would be. Sometimes people will bleed more when taking a lot of vitamin E, so you might want to stop taking it during this time)

These are just a few positives for healthy eating, there are many more. If you ever need the extra motivation, just reread this article and you might decide not skip out on the healthy foods.

This is going to be a warning about different types of vitamin c creams. They are a serious beauty product. Vitamin C creams are one of the most effective types of wrinkle repair creams available. Many can’t even get this without a prescription because there is some really hard hitting vitamin technology which must be supervised by a doctor.

So this type of hard-hitting treatment seems very attractive. Having a choice between using the same beauty products that may take up to two weeks to work and see results or using a vitamin C cream that will work much quicker, I would take the fast track. Vitamin C creams are not to be taken lightly. You must follow the directions to get the best effects possible from vitamin C creams.

Vitamin C cream is highly successful. However, it is so powerful, you need to know what you are doing. Here are a few ways to get the most out of your vitamin C cream treatments:

• Drink plenty of water
You should increase you daily water intake. Also, keep your skin hydrated. A few of these creams can actually make your skin peel or turn red. Applying a good moisturizer daily is extremely important.

• Monitor your reaction
Vitamin C creams can affect you differently than it affects other people. You could feel your skin actually tightening up. However, there are those that will run into inflammation and redness. After you apply vitamin C cream, you should keep careful watch over your face. However, if you run into serious problems contact the manufacturer quickly.

• Always follow the directions
You may be tempted to use more vitamin C cream than is recommended in order to get faster results. This can sometimes cause major inflammation of the skin. Follow the directions.

The researchers that are developing vitamin C creams are very serious about what they do. One of the best is actually the brainchild of a much-accoladed professor of chemistry who used her extra time in the lab to create one of the most effective skin care creams on the market. She knows what she is talking about. Just follow the directions for the best results!

If you have serious skin damage, then vitamin c is likely the answer. Just by following the directions on vitamin C creams, you will be able to enjoy the look and feel of your new skin rather quickly.

vitamin creams are often overlooked in beauty routines. These creams can dramatically improve the condition of your skin. Different vitamins will help with different types of skin issues.

You probably remember to take a general vitamin every day. The same idea goes with applying vitamin cream. You apply a vitamin cream topically. This means they go on your skin rather than in your mouth. The results of topical application differ greatly from oral vitamins.

There are four major players when it comes to topical vitamins. Pretty much all vitamins will benefit your skin. But these four play key roles in skin care.

Vitamin creams should be directly applied to problem areas. Depending on your skin problem, your cream should contain:

• Vitamin A to give tighter skin. Vitamin A helps with hydration. It also gives skin a more youthful look. Vitamin A is also called retinol. It might cause sun sensitivity. Use it with care.

• Vitamin E for scarring. Vitamin E helps heal tears and scars. This makes it a great treatment for deep wrinkles. Scars and stretch marks are often treated using vitamin E oil.

• Vitamin K dramatically adjusts discoloration. Vitamin K is a must for rosacea problems. Sun and age spots are also treated this way. But some types of vitamin K creams can create breakouts. Monitor your skin carefully to see if you get the results you want.

• Vitamin C if you want anti-aging action. Vitamin C has healing abilities internally and externally. Vitamin C can be use to heal up wrinkles. However, it might blister very sensitive skin. Monitor your skin carefully and use it sparingly.

Topically applied vitamins can definitely accelerate skin care results. Vitamin creams will amaze you –especially when paired with oral vitamins.

There are two stages of autism improvement or cure:

1.Finding and solving the “physical” portions of autism is the first stage. 

2.Behavior training and other education is the second stage and is much easier if the first stage is done right.

This article is devoted to the first stage.  That stage has three distinct and separate therapies involved:

1.    Finding and solving the cause of the “brain damage.

2.    Solving the nutritional puzzle(s).

3.    Solving the allergy problems.

The Brain Damage Problem

While mercury is a major cause of brain damage, there are other causes such as a birth or pre-birth accident, or even very poor nutrition by the mother during pregnance. Addicted mothers are often responsible as well.  

At present there is little that can be done for the actual physical damage other than increasing oxygen to the brain.  Neuroliminal Training does this by increasing brain blood flow by subliminal messaging during sleep..

However, Mercury poisoning from the huge increase in infant and child vaccines combined with more and more in our environmnt. 

Big Pharma, the FDA, and the Bush government knew a long time ago that the mercury (used as a preservative to lengthen shelf life) was causing brain damage in infants.  The huge increase of cases from 1 in 10,000 to the present 1 in 150 or so corresponds to the use of mercury and the increase of “required” infant vaccines, that loads so much mercury in this mix that the liver simply cannot take it all out of the bloodstream, and the brain blood barrier cannot stop it from the brain circulation, and it does this physical damage killing brain cells.

(Adding insult to injury, the FDA (controlled entirely by Big Pharma) spent a lot of money trying to make any drugs approved by the FDA, not subject to lawsuits.  How’s that for a “double play”?)

Here’s another little known fact about mercury poisoning.The toxins stored in the liver cannot be gotten out of the liver unless there is some way available to “neutralize it, and then excreting the combination out of the body.

Blood testing has been used by Big Pharma to “prove” that mercury “wasn’t” the source.  They are well aware that if no chelating material is in the blood, there will be little or no mercury present either.  A false proof indeed!)

This brings us to the first step in finding out how much mercury or other mineral toxins are stored.  Start at least a week prior to any blood or urine tests, and two months prior to any hair analysis.  Load the person with about 1000 mg (1 gram) of plain old vitamin C for every 10 pounds of person to be tested.The good thing about vitamin C is that the only effect of overdosing is diarrea.  Split doses in two or three or more doses per day.

Now, be sure to take the sample of blood or urine within 2-4 hours after taking the Vitamin C. 

The next step is chelating (means grab onto) the mercury (and all other minerals), render it non-toxic in combination, and water soluble so that it is filtered by the kidneys and taken out of the body.  

There are many other chelators, some very expensive, and somewhat faster than Vitamin C , but I prefer it because it also confers protection against viruses and bacteria in these large doses, and it’s cheap. 

FYI, the cheapest Ascorbic Acid works just as well as the most expensive form, however, if the person is allergic to corn, then you may want to use Calcium Ascorbate, which is unlikely to cause allergic symptoms.   (Most of the people who think they are allergic to vitamins are only corn sensitivity -switch to CA!)

Autistic infants are virtually always low in another “natural” chelator called Glutathione.  This is part of the autism picture.However, research shows that is difficult and expensive to get it and keep it in the bloodstream.Vitamin C is easier.

Unless the mercury stored in the liver and other locations is taken down to very safe low level,  the brain damage may continue.It becomes pretty obvious that the above is a critical first step in solving the autism puzzle.  Without solving it, the rest of the puzzle is much more difficult. 

The Nutritional Problems

There is a huge amount of stress involved with just the toxic minerals.This additional stress (you guessed it) requires even more nutrition.  The “normal” digestive tract contains bacteria that may be deadly if it gets into the bloodstream.The design of the digestive system is designed so that shouldn’t ever happen.  It breaks down food into basic molecules, sugars, fatty acids, and amino acids in particular. 

Protein is a mix of different amino acids – the building blocks of all animals as well as bacteria and viruses.  The system breaks these down to only a very few amino acids in what is called a peptide string.By digesting down to this small size assures that bacteria and virus cells cannot get thru in a “normal” system as they have many more amino acids in peptide strings.

With this stress, the brain realizes that it MUST get more nutrition, so it opts for increasing the input all from the gut.  This means that larger and larger peptide strings are able to pass into the bloodstream.  We now have what’s called a “Leaky Gut Syndrome”.

Some of these larger peptide strings might resemble a virus or bacteria, and the brain puts up a “danger signal”.Now a food allergy is developed (or technically food sensitivity).(The “usual” first (Usual initial foods for infants are milk and bread products, thus the casein free, gluten free diets often improve some autistic symptoms.)

Yet another important problem is caused by the Leaky Gut Syndrome.  It often allows the natural bacteria colonies that help digestion to become overrun with yeast.  The overuse of antibacterial drugs contributes as most are made from fungus/yeast.  The “healthy gut” has a balance of bacteria and yeast. 

So, we now have a vicious downward spiral.  This is a common story with autistic children. 

The first step is obviously to start getting enough nutrition so that the Leaky Gut Syndrome is no longer needed.  This means starting a vitamin mineral program and cutting out high carb sugary foods, replacing those with good home cooked meals, high in protein, and fiber along with those vitamins and minerals.

It’s hard to get away from “junk foods”, but it’s necessary if you want to really help an autistic child.Better health for the whole family is a good result.  You know what to eat – good meat, fresh fruits and vegetables.

Clearing up the food allergies

As mentioned earlier, mineral toxicity causes huge stress on the brain and body.  The various allergies that are born in, as well as the allergies created by the Leaky Gut Syndrome are also huge stressors, and also require more nutrition to just handle.  Anything that lessens this stress is valuable indeed..

Most of these so-called “brain allergies” are unsuspected by the person with them.Environmental allergies are easily diagnosed as they cause visible signs like hay fever or asthma, or hives, etc, but these “brain allergies just mental problems.  I may surprise you to find that any allergy can be responsible for anything from insomnia to schizophrenia and bipolar depression.  For a lot more information http://drbate.com/Ref/allergy.html .

There are several ways to solve allergy problems, ranging from the very expensive Neurofeedback clinics, the slightly less expensive allergy clinics, all the way to many “alternate” therapies, including Neuroliminal Training (NT), one of the most effective, yet affordable therapies available.  It’s extremely simple, done at home, and consists of “sleep therapy using a special CD that actually does the same thing as the expensive NFB clinics – name raise one special brain wave that seemingly changes the affect on the brain by allergens.
