Look Younger in 20 Minutes!
The Korwitts Chiropractic Center is happy to offer an exciting facial
treatment called Lumiere. Lumiere is a non-lasar, non-thermal,
non-invasive skin care therapy that is likely to leave you looking so
radiant, friends, family and co-workers might start thinking you've
found the Fountain of Youth. Combining the healing power of
633-nanometer red light waves with topical skincare products, Lumiere
promotes skin rejuvenation, reversing the effects of sun damage and
chronological aging. Problematic skin affected by acne and cosmetic
imperfections can also benefit. Call the clinic to find out more
information.... or schedule a complimentary treatment. This skincare
regimen for facial rejuvenation is available for a fraction of the cost
of other "soft surgery" procedures offered by dermatologists.
Rough Winter Hands?
Try a natural solution of yogurt and lemon. Mix the juice of 1/2 lemon
with 6 oz. of plain yogurt. Apply to hands and let sit for 10 minutes.
Then rinse off. The yogurt is full of gentle AHAs to boost the skin's
health and softness.

Ulcer News If you are one of 25 million Americans suffering
from an ulcer, you may be interested to learn that a recent review of
over 35 years of studies is showing you may be able to eat, drink and
still be ulcer free. In other words, spicy foods, coffee and alcohol
will not cause ulcers. The review also suggests that while milk may
seem to soothe an ulcer's burn, it may long-term, cause irritation that
can worsen symptoms. What can you do to help mend an ulcer? In a new
Polish study, antioxidant-rich GSE (Grapefruit Seed Extract) decreased
gastric acid production, which helped reduce the size of stomach ulcers
by 50% in 6 days. GSE is available in health food stores. Follow
package instructions, And if you are a smoker, you can also quit the
habit! A National Institute of Health's report indicates that ulcers
occur much more frequently in smokers. Finally, according to the
American Journal of Gastroenterology, ulcers occur 17% less often in
those who drink a glass of red wine a day. (And yes, the Journal does
specify "a glass" and not "a bottle"!)
Walk or Dance off those Calories! With spring fast
approaching, let go of those extra winter pounds by walking or dancing!
Exercise not only burns calories, it builds metabolism-building muscle
and helps lower insulin levels. Kirstie Alley on Oprah swears she
danced off 55 pounds. Oh, and don't feel you need a partner to dance
those calories away. Consider using a fun video for inspiration. Check
at www.amazon.com for any number of great choices like "Crunch Cardio
Salsa" or "NYC Ballet Workout."
