“Your rosy-cheeked complexion may not be a sign of good health. It could actually be a common skin disease called rosacea. Early treatment is important, so learn which is best for you… “

Rosacea is a skin condition that affects more than fourteen million people, especially those of Celtic ancestry. Rosacea is not the same as other forms of skin conditions, symptoms are  red, swollen, inflamed, dry itchy skin. The symptoms mainly appear on the face. Rosacea is a skin disease that predominantly affects the face of the sufferer, more common in women than men. Onset of Rosacea is typically in the patients 30’s, the bad news is there is no cure for Rosacea. People  mix up Rosacea symptoms with something else like sun burn, allergies or just being hot.

Symptoms can be irregular which can cause  flare ups and people do not often realize they are causing them.

Only eat moderate amounts of meats and dairy  because there are fatty acids in the protein that can stimulate the irritation that comes with rosacea. Fat-free dairy products contain less of this fatty acid and are better for you.
 
What to avoid:

- Avoid spicy foods
- Stop smoking
- Alcoholic drinks trigger flare-ups

What you need:

- Wear Sunscreen such as: Australian Gold spf lotions and Tea Time Green Tea 4oz Moisturizing Cream
- Niacinmide wich is a form of vitamin b3 also is used to treat symptoms
- Digestive enzymes help regulate the fat in your foods
- Aloe type products
- Rose hips

One of the best things you can do is to drink lots of filtered water every day. The water will help remove toxins in the body that can lead to infections or help reduce the bacteria that may cause rosacea to flare up.

Native American tribes in southeastern Canada and the northeastern U.S. are among the first to use the herb Goldenseal. It can act as an antibiotic to your mucous not by killing germs, but by increasing the flow of healthy mucous, which has its own antibiotics. Goldenseal is a plant that grows wild in parts of the United States but has become hard to find due to overharvesting. While  natural supplies are getting low, goldenseal is now grown commercially across the United States.

Goldenseal treatments:

- skin disorders/wounds,sores
- digestive problems
- liver conditions
- diarrhea
- its a natural antibiotic for sore  throats
- Goldenseal is often combined with echinacea in cold remedies

As stated earlier, Goldenseal has become hard to find, due to overharvesting. Wild Goldenseal is so rare that the herb is now in the Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES)  More than 60 million goldenseal plants are picked each year without being replaced. Since the demand of goldenseal has been on the rise due to how well it works they have started “farms” wear they are growing it commercially now to meet the supply and demand needs.

Creatine is the most researched  supplement of all time. Creatine is neither a vitamin, mineral, herb nor hormone. It is a naturally occurring amino acid that is found in our body and also by using creatine monohydrate you can raise your Igf-1/ Igf-2 levels as well, which is important for aging athletes.
We can’t get enough creatine in our system by just consuming foods such as meats, fish, dairy products, egg whites, nuts and seeds.

It is quite challenging to consume enough food to provide the same amount of creatine that using supplements will. Creatine’s main benefit is its ability to give you energy plus it causes muscle tears to repair themselves quicker. Creatine causes rapid replenishment of ATP that leads to an available energy  so that the muscle is able to recuperate its energy much quicker .
One clinical study found that people with congestive heart failure used creatine supplementation with their standard medication to help increase body weight and an improvement of muscle strength. 

People with these conditions all use creatine to help them with muscle/weight gain:

Heart disease

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Muscular dystrophy

Parkinson’s disease 

Women and Creatine:

Women have a hard time trying to gain muscle and strength. Creatine help’s women see results in strength much quicker. It is a well known fact that  more muscle causes the body to burn more calories. So women that use creatine will add some additional muscle to their frame that will help them burn more body fat throughout the day to.
