The code to order capsules is: CCAN. Candidiasis is an infection caused by strains of the yeast, Candida, the most common being Candida Albicans . Candida is normally present in the digestive tract and the vagina. During certain favorable conditions such as warm, humid weather or when an individual's immune system is impaired, the yeast can infect the skin. Mucous membranes in the mouth and vagina are commonly infected. In rare instances, Candida can invade blood and deeper tissues, causing life-threatening infection.

Aromatic Mud Body Mask...Page 312, Aromatherapy, Valerie Gennari Cooksley
Honey 2 teaspoons
Yogurt 2 tablespoons
Vegetable oil 1 teaspoon
Mineral or Floral water 1/2 cup
Clay (powdered form) 1/3 cup
Essential Oils 10 drops total
Mix honey, yogurt, and vegetable oil together. Add clay to this mixture, adding small amounts of water at a time until it becomes a smooth, creamy and thick paste. When it is the right consistency, add the essential oils. Mix well.
Start with your hands and arms, then feet and legs, working always toward the body center and heart. Massage lightly as you spread this on, spending 1 to 2 minutes on each body section. Take your time, leaving a thick layer of clay on the skin. You can relax in a full bathtub of warm water for 15 to 20 minutes. You will still get the clay benefits even though the water dilutes and washes some of the clay off. Shower with warm water after, forgoing the soap. Rest.

A/B Hydroxy Acid Rejuvenator is specifically for treating existing wrinkles. A high concentration of Alpha and Beta Hydroxy Acids rejuvenate skin without irritation. This is accomplished by time-releasing the acids in a mixture of anti-irritant Polyprepolymer-2 and by encapsulating them in Liposomes for complete delivery into the deeper skin layers. This slower diffusion creates much less irritation and better penetration of the acids. Powerful anti-oxidants help protect from further ageing and rich plant-derived Ceramides replace lost skin lipids for smoother, more moist skin.

STRESS-FREE WITH TEA (and other words of wisdom):We strongly recommend you sit down with a cup of SereniTea which contains herbs traditionally used to promote calmness. While sipping your tea, pull the plug on the rest of your pressure. Exercise, MOVE, "schedule" daydreaming time, eliminate some of your material things and live within your means; sit up straight (even if at the computer): squeeze the Eggsercizers in times of stress to release your body from the fight-or-flight response; save some bubble pack and pop a bubble or save your plastic liter soda bottle. Take the empty, rinsed-out bottle and throw it or "strangle" it. Find something wholesome to laugh at (and don't take life too seriously). DON'T WATCH THE NIGHTLY NEWS. And keep the noise down. Drive home without the radio - no talk, no music. (Convince your fellow car-poolers that silence is healthy!)
What Magazines Are Really Telling Us... excerpted from Age Erasers for Women (Prevention Magazine)
"Women's magazines love perfection. They tell us we can have perfect hair, perfect lips, perfect legs, perfect sex. So how does all this perfection make us feel? Perfectly rotten, says Debbie Then, Ph.D., a social psychologist in Stanford, California, who studies the effects of media on body image and conducts seminars on the topic. "
"Most women who look at those magazines know that they don't look like the models and never will," Dr. Then says. "Yet if you're constantly bombarded with those images, you might begin to consider yourself unattractive when in fact you're actually very good-looking." Some women said they were motivated to improve their appearance, but nearly 70 percent said the images in the magazines lowered their self-esteem and made them feel worse about their looks. "I feel like every woman is at least 20 pounds lighter and four inches taller than I am," one woman wrote. "It really depresses me." "It is impossible to look like the models unless I have a $5 million wardrobe, a personal airbrusher and a makeup artist and I go on (a liquid diet) for ten years," said another.
WHAT TO DO? Well, a few women found what they considered the PERFECT solution: They stopped reading the magazines."
