Thus instead of burning fat, your metabolism will run the steps to deal with emergency situations, namely to maintain your fat reserves


Dr.Robert Kushner, MD, director of Clinical nutrition and weight loss at the University of Chicago, said that lowering your calorie intake with excessive fasting can lowering basal metabolic rate (the minimum requirement of calories while resting) to 30%, this makes weight loss very difficult. Excessive fasting means when the intake of calories is less than 600 per day. Because our bodies mechanism feel to save you from the lack of fat, so another fuel source is chosen, namely the muscles. If it’s happen continuously, your muscles become weak. Thus, the most appropriate way to reduce tour weight is through exercise at least 30 minutes.

Imagine, you meet a cute guy but when he smiles, his teeth looks all yellow, ouch :P. It is no wonder, because your smile is the first thing that people look on you. Just like my hubby said when I asked him why he loves me :P Your wide bright smile can support your appearance. Probably you will ask why teeth’s color can change. Actually there are two things that make teeth color changes:

1. Intrinsic
It happens because of your genetic or hereditary, consuming drugs such as antibiotics excessively.

2. Extrinsic
Consuming foods or beverages that can change color like tea, coffee, red wine and smoking.

A very popular way to whiten the teeth is by using home bleaching gels. You can easily buy this product at the drugstore. Bleaching gels are external whitening that only works on the outer layer of teeth, so the result is less effective and did not last long. So, it’s better if you consulted to the dentist before you use tooth whitening products. It’s because the materials that commonly used as bleaches include hydrogen peroxide, sodium perborat, and karbamid have reactive peroxides. Some researches found that reaction from karbamid peroxide cause inflammation of the mouth mucosa. Several other studies also show that teeth whitening can stimulate absorption of pathological roots and increase the teeth fragility.

Naaah, if your teeth fragile, how can you eat your favorite ice cream without suffering? So you better go to experienced dentist. Your dentist will perform variety of safe procedures to make your teeth brighter. Your dentist can determine the kind of treatment in accordance with the conditions of each patient. Many dental cares can be done in office’s dentist, but the most favorite treatment today is laser bleaching because the result is instant and satisfying. But unfortunately, you have to spend more money to pay the costs. So prepare to save money, because the price for laser bleaching is about $ 1000 or more. But if you don’t have that much money, you can get tips on cheap and natural whitener teeth.

Natural Teeth Whitening Tips, It's Easy and Cheap

Natural Teeth Whitening tipsNatural Teeth Whitening tips. Why you have to go the dentist and pay much, if the materials of teeth whitener can be found around you. And I guarantee, the materials are very cheap and safe... and free to try :) If you are diligent in using it, the result will be satisfactory, so you do not have to pay around $ 1000 for the dentist.

1. Strawberries and baking soda
They are the most powerful secrets to brighten your smile. The way to use them is very easy. You only need to set up a ripe strawberries and ½ teaspoon of baking soda.
How to make:
1. Mash strawberries to a pulp then mix it with baking soda.
2. Then apply to your teeth with a toothbrush. Let stand for 5 minutes.
3. Clean the teeth with water, and then use dental floss to remove the seeds of a strawberry.
4. Apply it one a week, because if you use it excessively, it will damage the teeth enamel due to acid content in the strawberries.

2. Crunchy Vegetables
Brushing your teeth while eating? Uugh, that’s disgusting. But actually if you eat vegetables like celery, carrots, broccoli, and cucumbers will erode the stains on the teeth because of abrasive characteristic’s content on these vegetables.

Interesting huh. Here is another tips for natural teeth whitening : more importantly, you should avoid or minimize the consumption of food or drink that can left stain on your teeth.

Food and Beverages That Make Your Teeth Yellow

Have you ever imagine, that the food or beverages consumed for years can make your teeth yellow. Yes, the material leave stains on your teeth if it’s not cleaned immediately. Now let look at these guilty food and drink:

1. Dark colored drinks
Try to remember how many dark colored drinks that you like. You drink coke every day, drinking dark coffee or dark tea in the morning, or drinking wine in every occasion that you attended. Actually, these kinds of drink are dangerous for your teeth because leaves stains and phosphoric citric acid + sugar that cause tooth decay.

2. Hot food and acidic food
Hot food and acidic food can open the pores of the tooth so it can make your teeth become brittle and also leave stains on the teeth.

3. Cigarettes
I often notice that many smokers’ teeth are yellow. Nicotine is the substance of evil because it could leave a yellow stain on teeth and disturbing your heart and lungs. So you should begin to stop smoking :D

If you want to have bright teeth, besides doing medical or natural treatment, you should avoid foods and beverages that I mentioned above. But it doesn’t mean that you have to stop the consumption of point 1 and 2 (but, it’s very recommended to stop doing your habit on point 3. Because it is very dangerous for you and people around you).

If you still want to consume coffee, add milk or cream in it. Or better to drink green tea instead of dark tea. Furthermore, I suggest you to replace coke with plain water, because it’s healthier for your body and teeth. Don’t forget to brush your teeth after eating or drinking with a soft toothbrush. Choose toothpaste that suits you.

Does Skinny Women Attractive? (Skinny Women Photos)

Skinny women photosDoes skinny women attractive? If you a model, the answer might be definitely yes. They are required to maintain their weight (or become skinny), so it will look good when they wear designer clothes. If a little fat, a model may not be used, so that he/she lost of the competition among models. And being thin is not necessarily healthy. A model from Brazil Ana Carolina Reston (21 years old) is a model of Armani Catalog. She died because of bulimia and anorexia (she only ate tomatoes and apples). She had weight only 40 kg and being 1.72m tall. Can you imagine how skinny is she? Another sad story is Luisel Ramos (22 years old) an Uruguay model, she died of heart failure while she did her job on the catwalk. She just consumed lettuce and diet coke for 3 months.
In my opinion, being thin is not wrong. But if you are too thin, it will cause various diseases. Furthermore too thin is not good to see. Try to look at the photos of model below. Change your paradigm that thin = beautiful. Why should impose a dress to fit with our body. If not enough, please buy larger size. Don’t be so ridiculous to make your body look horrible like these skinny women models.
