Ancient Clay Soaps offer a unique alternative to natural body care products with ingredients that are well known to improve skin quality.

Throughout history, clay medicine has been widely used to treat a variety of internal ailments and skin disorders. Aboriginal medicine men used a similar type of nutrient rich clay to draw toxins out of the body, and Native Americans used special types of clay to prevent the spread of infection and stimulate healing.

With its highly adsorbent nature, Kanwa clay has been scientifically tested by Arizona State University researchers to have the ability to magnetically bind fine-grained particles and remove toxins. Ancient Clay Soaps creatively use Kanwa clay to absorb skin pollutants, detoxify pores and enhance skin tone. Ancient Clay Soaps are known to balance skin pH and stimulate skin cell turnover. Kanwa clay is also nutrient rich and offers more than 60 trace minerals that is a popular remedy for firming and hydrating dry skin.

Zion Health Announces Vegan-Friendly Line of Ancient Clay Organic Soaps and Healing Native Remedies; Now Available at Veggie Monster in Woodside, NY.

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) May 06, 2013

Zion Health is proud to announce that local Queens neighborhood natural grocer Veggiemonster will now carry Zion's Ancient Clay Soaps and native remedies containing a unique high grade edible clay called calcium montmorillonite (Kanwa) clay. These natural soaps are formulated to nourish and cleanse the skin without causing irritation.

Over the past three years, Veggiemonster has grown to carry essential lines of organic groceries, vegetarian vitamins and natural body care products. The most recent addition includes Zion Health's healing clay soaps and native clay remedies.

Kanwa clay is a well-known folk medicine remedy for numerous health and skin disorders. According to Michel Abhesera, author of The Healing Clay, bentonite clay was called Ee-Wah-Kee, meaning The Mud That Heals, by Native Americans and applied by native cultures on skin to clear acne, eczema and infected wounds. More recently, Kanwa clay was discovered to hold a negative charge and attract positively charged toxins, viruses and bacteria. MIT scientist Dr. Robert T. Martin notes that calcium bentonite clay has a large surface area that enhances its adsorption and in turn, its ability to attract positively charged particles. Zion Health's clay products harness the detoxifying action of Kanwa clay in their organic soaps and full product line to absorb environmental pollutants on the skin, including heavy metals and harmful bacteria.

As a supporter of natural, vegan and cruelty-free body care products, Zion Health natural soaps are plant based and not tested on animals. The organic clay soaps are also nutrient rich, as kanwa clay provides more than 60 trace minerals.

DietAssist responds to news that TV soaps encourage bad eating habits

(PRWEB UK) 29 May 2013

More than 830 scenes of the UKs four most popular soaps - Coronation Street, EastEnders, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks - were analysed over a two-week period to provide an in-depth character examination.

The study, published by Liverpool John Moores University Business School, finds that the UKs favourite soap stars are portraying irresponsible lifestyles on prime-time TV with high levels of unhealthy eating and alcohol consumption, and a total lack of exercise.

Viewers are exposed to nearly 10 times the amount of alcohol compared to healthy drinks, and 72 per cent of all the food consumed on screen is unhealthy.

The results revealed unhealthy eating habits, potentially dangerous amounts of alcohol drinking and alarmingly low levels of physical activity.

Of all the drinks consumed by characters, 57 per cent were either alcoholic or sugary, compared to just 6 per cent which were considered healthy, while copious amounts of tea and coffee were also drunk.

The study is intended to raise awareness of the importance of a healthy, balanced diet.

Rob Woodgate, co-creator of the DietAssist programme, said: 'Human beings are social by nature, and so we are all influenced by the people, culture and society we are exposed to.'

'Like it or not, television has become a key part of many people's lifestyle, and television soaps expose us to a particularly unhealthy subset of society. Children and young people are influenced the most, as they are learning how to fit into the society they are being exposed to, including the things they see on TV'.

'At DietAssist, we help people to recognise when they are under society influences, so that they can take back control of their behaviour and lose weight more easily. In effect, we teach them how to become immune to the influence of TV and the programmes they choose to watch.'

Julie, who lost over 2 stone and dropped 2 dress sizes using DietAssist, said, 'Before starting DietAssist, I did everything to excess: chocolate, takeaways, alcohol. I didnt really think about it and if I fancied a pizza, a donut at work, or going out for a few drinks or a curry, Id think, yeah why not? But now, I find it so much easier to make healthy choices and I naturally go for a smaller portions too'

The DietAssist programme is the result of over 20 years experience of helping people to lose weight effectively, and uses the latest psychological techniques to avoid the self sabotage and demotivation that dieters commonly experience.

The DietAssist programme helps dieters strengthen their motivation and resolve, and creates the optimum psychological state for success. It is designed to work alongside any weight loss programme or sensible eating plan.
