Pretty Mommies Comments On Why Maternity Skin Care Isnt Just For Expecting Women

Jacksonville, NC (PRWEB) April 19, 2013

Along with the food industry, the personal care industry has seen huge market growth in natural products. Consumers are more aware than ever about the dangers of additives, preservatives and chemically altered food and this trend is certainly crossing over into skin care.

It may surprise some to know that numerous personal care products with household names contain ingredients that are on the Department of Healths known human carcinogen list. As of lately many other cosmetic ingredients have studies to support they cause neurotoxicity, organ toxicity, reproductive and developmental toxicity and pose many other health and safety concerns. Consumers should and are demanding safer products.

Pretty Mommies is a unique skin care line, in that it was developed for expecting women, says Gina Zeiger, President/Founder of Pretty Mommies Skin Care. We had to be overly cautious when formulating our products due to our demographic; and since physicians were carrying and recommending our line, we had to show measurable results. This meant we needed to use only high quality, study backed, natural ingredients that were clean and safe.

Our products are highly effective at helping to improve skin issues that many people, not just pregnant women, experienced; without the dangerous chemicals, continues Zeiger. For this reason some dermatologists, plastic surgeons and medical spas have been recommending Pretty Mommies to numerous patients that are not expecting.

Our clients and staff alike are thrilled to use all natural products that work; and the majority of us arent pregnant, says Juliana Norris, Director of Carolina Pines Med Spa. The simplicity and effectiveness of Pretty Mommies skin care regimen have converted many of us that were using multi-step systems and have surpassed expectations on how quickly a product can repair and transform our skin. Finally, a skin care line thats gentle, result driven, non-irritating and affordable.

Pretty Mommies products are All Natural, Safe, Vegan, Gluten Free, Cruelty Free and Made in the USA. Pretty Mommies is the #1 Physician Recommended Maternity Skin Care Line found in hundreds of physicians offices across the country.

Cosmetics Are Botanicals Just the Latest Ingredient Fad?

Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) May 01, 2013

Cosmetic products have always been infamous for their petroleum and polymer laced ingredients. According to an April 24, 2013 Fox News article, major cosmetics brands have recently been substituting botanicals for synthetic compounds. These natural products are reported to be effective in reducing cellulite and dark circles under the eyes. However, is the use of botanicals just a passing fad or is it here to stay? (Go to goo.gl/edD4V)

As the developer of my own line of skin care products, Im always interested in new ingredients, particularly those that can effectively substitute for petro-chemically derived products, says Dr. Simon Ourian, Medical Director of Epione Beverly Hills.

The report notes that from the consumer perspective, botanicals are exotic and luxurious. Plants that originate from Africa and the Amazon receive particular interest and have the potential to sell for hundreds of dollars. The names of the plants themselves, kangaroo paw flower or moonflower, for example, can invoke a feeling of luxury.

According to the Fox News article, the largest percentage of botanical ingredients is used in leave-on creams. While it may be fine to use strong chemicals for washing the skin, most people are not comfortable with leaving these products on their body for several hours. Botanical products have a reputation for safety, so buyers may be less concerned about the product damaging their skin in the long run.

The report states that botanical ingredients hold a large share of the market, but there are very few of them that have had sustained success. Like any other ingredient, botanicals are dependent on market interest. There haven't been any "breakthrough" results in botanical treatments, so for now consumers appear to be just buying them because it is a trendy thing to do.

Although botanicals may be considered to be a market fad, says Dr. Ourian, I believe that these ingredients are here to stay. With public health awareness continuing to grow, people are more concerned about eating healthy and using products that will not harm their bodies. As long as the emphasis on health and ecological awareness is sustained, we will continue to see natural ingredients in cosmetic products.

Dr. Ourian has been a pioneer in laser technology and non-invasive aesthetic procedures including Restylane, Juv

Dr. Marc Blatstein Explains Spa Health Safety Practices just in Time for Summer

(PRWEB) May 15, 2013

A little research can ensure a beautiful & safe pedicure, says Dr. Marc Bernstein. Finding medically supervised facilities, or identifying a salon that practices comparable sterilization techniques can safeguard you from unpleasant bacterial, viral, or fungal infection. These salons do exist as seen in Nails Magazine.

The only way to fully eradicate infectious organisms is through a very technical process called, autoclaving. Autoclaves, machines that have FDA clearance for sterilization purposes, are now available for salon use to help mitigate dangerous infections like HIV/AIDS or MRSA, the flesh-eating bacteria. The methods used to autoclave instruments in medical offices and hospitals nationwide are regulated by the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and involve an intense heat and pressure treatment for up to 45 minutes at 272

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diets & Weight Loss Plans Provides Patients With an Answer to the How to Stop Eating After Just One Potato Chip Phenomenon

New York, NY (PRWEB) April 22, 2013

In an interesting study just reported on by Medical News Today, researchers tackle the all too common how to stop eating after eating just one potato chip phenomenon and consider the science behind it. Research demonstrates that potato chip fat and carbohydrate content alone is not responsible for problems associated with how to stop eating after a few potato chips and scientists are still searching for the exact cause. Fortunately, Diet Doc weight loss plans can help patients change their lifestyle from one consistent with overeating out of boredom, loneliness or self-medication to a lifelong maintenance lifestyle approach where patients learn how to stop eating for pleasure. Choosing to embrace Diet Docs effective hCG weight loss plans can lead to a new, healthier body and lifestyle.

Each Diet Doc patient receives not only a prescription hCG diet plan, but the necessary long term support and dietary education needed to maintain a lifetime of healthy eating habits. The company now focuses attention on habit changing assistance closely based on studies showing that poor eating habits can be counteracted. Hedonic Hyperphagia is the scientific term for the often-experienced binge eating associated with pleasure instead of hunger. Many patients eat out of depression or boredom and, overtime, develop harmful deeply ingrained habits leaving patients wondering how to stop eating. The habitual version of hedonic hyperhagia is concerning to researchers and is considered a key component of the current obesity epidemic. Over the past three decades, obesity has increased at a staggering rate, making weight loss plans more important than ever. A different study performed by Dr. Youfa Wang with the Center for Human Nutrition focused on the obesity epidemic confronting the United States according to time trends, gender, age, socioeconomic status and varying geographic regions across the United States. In the study, Wang determined that obesity among adults is steadily increasing and predicted that 75% of adults would be obese by the year 2015.

Dr. Tobias Hoch, Ph.D. and his team at FAU Erlangen-Nuremberg, in Erlangen, Germany, used laboratory rats feeding on potato chips and rat food with a similar fat and carbohydrate content to determine how the brain reacts when potato chips are ingested. Scientists used magnetic resonance imaging to map the rats brains and compare any differences in the brain after ingesting potato chips versus the brains that had consumed simple rat food. They found that stimulation occurring in the reward centers of the brain were more significant in rats that had ingested potato chips. This information leads researchers to believe that the attraction to potato chips is not the fat and carbohydrate content alone and they plan to identify, at a molecular level, what part of the potato chip triggers this stimulation. Once the ingredient is isolated, scientists hope to add it to healthful foods contained in many weight loss plans to encourage eating those types of foods and teach patients how to stop eating foods high in fat.

In a recent survey, an overwhelming majority of patients who embraced Diet Doc weight loss plans reported safe and fast weight loss without complications or excessive hunger. Clients receive individualized treatment, including unlimited physician consultations and personalized nutrition plans, which teach patients how to stop eating and how to start losing weight fast. Currently, Diet Doc offers leading weight loss plans by providing the support needed to guide patients toward a lifetime of healthy living.

Dr. Atul Madan Explains The Difficulties of Losing Weight Just by Diet and Exercise

Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) May 12, 2013

Diet and exercise is good and necessary many health professionals agree on that. There have been many good articles written, such as the April 10, 2013 Fox News report on How to Keep Weight Off (foxnews.com/health/2013/04/10/how-to-keep-weight-off/) that have offered tips, advice, and guidance on keeping pounds from creeping up. However, Dr. Madan specialist in bariatric surgery says that many of these helpful guidelines are only helpful to those who don't already have 50 to 100 pounds of extra weight. He points to an October 27, 2011 article by Time magazine, Why Dieters Can't Keep the Weight Off, as an indication that extra weight causes extra biological problems with cravings that lead to weight regain.
