For lifeless frizzy hair:

First of all, you need to moisturize your hair and nourish your scalp regularly in order to get back the lustre. Make sure to wash your hair every other day if you sweat a lot and work in pollution. Use a mild shampoo to wash your hair and always use a good hair oil to massage your scalp and the tips of your hair. You can either make your own hair massage hair oil at home. Check a natural homemade hair massage hair oil recipe here. This is completely natural and works fabulous on bringing back the lustre of your hair. If you have no time to prepare one, use Parachute Advanced Ayurvedic Hair Oil. It works great on any hair type to control hair fall and nourish hair roots. All you need to do is heat some oil and massage your hair and scalp with the heated warm oil one hour before your hair wash. This can be done twice to thrice a week for maximum benefits.

        If these processes don't work even after a month of usage, it might be some heath issue causing your hair thinning and lifeless hair. Consult with your physician immediately to prevent further hair loss.

Weight Gain Problem

It is actually not safe to follow any home treatments for weight loss without consulting your physician so please avoid that thought. You can follow some natural ideas to keep weight in control. Mild exercises and low calorie intake can help you but you shouldn't ever starve yourself. Include fresh fruits, veggies and greens in your daily diet. Drink lemon juice every morning in empty stomach, this not only helps keeping weight in control but it also helps clearing out your skin tone. Cut fat items, junk foods from your eating routine and jump to fruits and veg salads. Sometimes, genetics may be related with sudden weight gain, you need to talk to your physician for this. Consult with your physician and follow what he/she says, including with daily exercise and fruit intake.

Dry Skin & Fairness Remedy

Dry skin is caused due to extreme moisture loss. This happens in winters a lot. Make sure to moisturize your skin after every wash and before going to bed at night. If your body skin is rough and dry, a rich creamy body butter or body lotion is a must. Try massaging facial skin with milk cream every morning followed by a gentle face wash, this process nourishes dry facial skin with the milk nutrients to make it soft and supple. Heated olive oil massage is also very beneficial to achieve soft, supple skin.

Top Ten Tips to Lose Weight in 30 Days

If you want to reduce weight, but still want to keep your face fat, the only thing that can benefit you is WORKOUT. If you keep on starving yourself, you will probably lose your face fat first than losing your body weight. Today, I am gonna give you few effective home remedies to lose your weight without any side effects. A nurse practitioner can help you figure out the right weight loss strategy.

1. Minimize your calorie intake. Take not more than 1700 calories a day.

2. Stay away from full cream milk, diary products, flours, oily foods, junk food, mutton and beef. You can take chicken once in a week and EGG WHITES daily (They are good sources of protein) but you should totally AVOID EGG YOLKS if you want to lose weight. Egg yolks are full of cholesterol which is bad for weight loss.

3. Drink CORIANDER (leaves) Juice or soup twice daily, It can eliminate all the unwanted cholesterol from your body. This really works like a wonder.

4. Increase your water intake as much as you can. Water can flush out all the unwanted fat from your body. Water is a miracle liquid which can beautify your whole body.

HERE'S A TRICK

Drink 2 cups of water before every meal, thus you can reduce your calorie intake. Don't drink water as soon as you finish eating, drink after 15 minutes.

5. HORSE GRAM POWDER

This is what my aunt did to reduce her weight and she got great results. Fry horse gram in bare vessel (No oil). Powder it finely and store it in an air tight container. Every morning, in empty stomach eat two teaspoons of this powder followed by a glass of water. This will give you astonishing results fast.

6. Have your dinner 2 hours before going to bed. If you go to bed soon after you finish eating, your body might not able to burn the fat and It will be stored as cholesterol.

7. Go for a fast jogging 30 minutes everyday. This will eliminate excess fat in the form of sweat. It will also makes your skin glows as the toxins are removed. If you can't do this, you can do yoga at home. Do stretches everyday to shape your body and remove cholesterol from fatty areas of your body.

8. Climb stairs, never use lifts. Include fruits and vegetables to your diet. Eat oats every night. It is a good source of fiber which keeps your body fit and lean. Take more fibrous foods daily. Add two cups of salad before every meal, this will prevent you from eating more calories.

9. SAY GOODBYE TO SUGAR, USE JAGGERY INSTEAD. Sugar is a source of empty calories which makes you gain pounds. Add jaggery in coffee, tea and other stuffs for sweetness. JAGGERY IS A GOOD SOURCE OF IRON.

10.NEVER EVER SKIP YOUR BREAKFAST. THIS REALLY MAKES YOU GAIN WEIGHT.

Skipping breakfast slows down your metabolism and hence the process of burning extra fat gets slow. Replace your regular breakfast with SALADS, EGG WHITES and FRUIT JUICES.
