This sounds like advice your mom would have given you doesn’t it?

It is true though. We are only as beautiful on the outside as we are on the inside. If we are healthy it shows on our faces, in our skin and other tell tale signs.

There are many ways you can get this inner beauty. Don’t sweat it, this is the easy stuff, promise! Here are 3 easy changes you can make today.

#1 – drink more water. Most people suffer from dehydration. Your skin suffers the worst. Dry, itchy skin is not attractive. Simple solution is to drink more water. Notice I didn’t say soda or coffee, but WATER. Water in it’s purest form is what you body needs.

#2 – take those extra steps. Instead of taking the elevator, take the stairs. Take those few moments and get exercise. You don’t have to go to the gym and get a workout, though that is an excellent idea. Just take the time to add more to your routine. Get up and move around.

#3 – get to sleep. Many people are so stressed and work centered that they never manage to get a good night sleep. Learn to tune out and get your 8 hours. Soothing music, an eye mask to block out the light, do what it takes to get yourself a good nights sleep.

Lately we have been trying different all natural toothpaste. Not as easy as it sounds. There are several on the market. We are even trying our own. Get the latest on this subject!

Everyone wants a bright, beautiful smile right? It is no wonder that toothpastes, toothbrushes, mouth rinses, and flavored dental floss have become a multi-million dollar industry. There are dental care products for designed specifically for children, seniors, and those who have dental health problems. There are toothpastes that are supposed to help soothe gums, whiten teeth, eliminate bad breath, and lessen cold and heat sensitivities. There is usually an entire isle devoted to dental products in the most grocery or drug stores. But does there popularity and accessibility make them the best choice?

A large portion of dental products contain fluoride. Basically fluoride is a mineral that is added to dental products to help prevent tooth decay. This action is based upon observances made in the early 1900s. Residents of the southwestern states were consuming high levels of fluoride in their water supply and despite the fact that the fluoride caused them to have stained yellow and brown teeth; they had an unusually low level of tooth decay. This lead many to believe that fluoride was responsible for preventing decay, despite the fact that other possible factors were not evaluated.

There are thousands of products and treatments available to help improve the quality of your skin, but only a small percentage of these are natural. Most beauty products contain harsh, damaging chemicals. Treatments, like chemical peels and botox, can be scary. On top of it all, we really have no idea what most of these treatments and chemicals will do to our skin 20 years down the road. If you want to have great looking skin without dangerous chemicals or procedures, there is a way.

Here are some great tips to keep your skin looking fabulous the natural way:

• Drink more water. All cells need water to function properly. If your skin cells aren?t properly hydrated, waste products build up in your cells and keep them from working right and looking their best. Also, if you don?t drink enough water, your cells will retain as much as they can and you?ll end up looking puffy and bloated.

• Change your diet. You?ve probably heard the phrase ?you are what you eat? a lot. If you think about it, this old saying is 100 percent true. Your body is made up of what you put into it. If you want it to work properly and look its best, you need to feed yourself the nutrients it needs and avoid foods that may damage it. For beautiful skin, you should try to get more fiber and ?good fats? in your diet and avoid foods with a lot of sugar. In other words leave the Twinkies alone.
