Confusing warnings on cosmetics package

- "For Professional Use Only"
By using this phrase, companies do not have to include some chemicals, which should be included in the formula.

- "Hypo-allergenic"
Neither the FDA or any other organization regulates the use this word on packages, which means that if the company thinks this is hypo-allergenic, the word can be on the package.

In summary, it is important for you to know the facts and evaluate products yourself! 

Don't wash your face with hot water.

Facial skin is very thin and sensitive and hot water damages the skin easily by rinsing away necessary natural oils.
Without natural oils, your skin becomes dry and more sensitive.  The oil on your skin is very important and protects your skin.
Also, hot water evaporates faster than room temperature water. To make it worse, the hot water evaporates WITH your skin's moisture too.

When you wash face, try to use water which is almost the same temperate as your body.

Japanese pizza

Okonomiyaki

The name for Japanese Pizza means, "As you like it!" which sounds perfect for me.



Japanese pizza is a healthy dish.

Ingredients are cabbage, egg whites, flour and I added fresh seafood. That's it! Very delicious!

I choose healthy toppings and avoid mayonaise based sauces.

Ecology Humidifier

I use this Japanese humidifier, which is made from special antibacterial paper!!! 

Place the decorative shaped filter into a shallow dish and add water, or you may add water based aromas.  Thats it!

Perfect for any room, office or cubicle.

     *The special paper absorbs water much faster. 

     *No electricity

     *No noise

     *Just pour water! 

Decreases dry skin, dry eyes and sore throats

Anti osteoporosis

One of the menopausal symptoms is osteoporosis, because estrogen is supposed to inhibit breaking down bones. In other words, the less estrogen, the more bones are broken down.

KAATSU training in Japan is known that it works to create more bone density. According to the Katatsu data, 15 minuites KAATSU training 2 times per day X 6 days per week X 3 weeks made 5 times more stronger bones than before.

Kaatsu training

One of the popular trainings in Japan is KAATSU training! KAATSU means adding pressure.

While adding some pressure on arms or legs to reduce blood circulation, you do light muscle training. This condition allows you to gain a lot of result just from light simple muscle training, because this equals hard muscle training.

During KAATSU training, blood circulation does not stop. It is just reduced.

When the belt is released, blood circulates amazingly fast. a lot of lactic acid is produced. This gives you a lot of growth hormone.  The KAATSU organization in Japan says KAATSU training gives you 290 times more growth hormone than regular movement!!!

90% of aged skin causes is UV!

Japanese love UV block. UV is one of the worst enemies for the skin. We use hats, umbrellas and sun glasses as well as lotions to prevent the dangerous UV rays.  UV can attack you from the ground up too. Concrete roads reflect UV at 10%, water at 10-20% and snow at a shocking 80%!

I know Vitamin D is produced by UV, but you should protect face, hands and neck from UV, and expose other areas to UV, for example arms or legs.
