The Ideal Protein Protocol

Data shows that 70% of Americans and 54% of Canadians are overweight or obese. These individuals are at increased risk for a host of health complications associated with excess weight, including heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, osteoarthritis and reproductive problems in women. The Ideal Protein Protocol is a four-phase, low carbohydrate, moderate protein, ketogenic weight management solution. Dr. Rothrock, Ideal Protein Chief Medical Officer, is passionate about the Ideal Protein Protocol. “This appointment affords me an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of millions affected by the epidemic,” he says. “It’s the science and education behind it that makes it different. It has been found that the Protocol is an effective intervention to help people manage their weight and potentially avoid serious health complications related to obesity.” Healthcare practitioners offer the Protocol to their patients to help them lose weight and, as a result, reverse metabolic syndrome. www.successweightloss.ca Success Weight Loss

Fall back in love with food!

Most Canadians suffer from some sort of digestive complaint on a regular basis. These digestive issues include gas, bloating, indigestion, heartburn and tiredness after eating. These symptoms can all be related to other health issues however if they occur after eating, then chances are they are digestion related and enzymes can help! Renew Life offers 3 main digestive enzyme formulas for varying degrees of digestive distress. •          DigestMORE is the ideal choice for anyone looking for a daily digestive enzyme to manage occasional digestive issues. •   DigestMORE ULTRA is the ideal choice for anyone who has chronic digestive problems that may include gas, bloating, regurgitation, and tiredness after eating. • DigestMORE HCl is the ideal choice to help combat heartburn and acid reflux caused by low stomach acid. Taking digestive enzymes is one of the most effective ways to change the way your body responds to the foods you eat. Whether you take them every day or just when you need them, digestive enzymes should be part of your digestive care toolkit!

Put a Little Life into Your Wig

The secret for maintaining your Synthetic wigs looking great is not to over wash them.   The wig can be washed between 4 to 5 weeks of wear and not every week or two weeks. Keeping your scalp clean on a daily basis should work well.  Keep away from direct heat, opening oven doors, steaming veggies on the stove, BBQ’s, Fireplaces, Fire pits, Saunas and hot tubs. Do not use curling irons and Hair blowers on heat.. Heat from the sun will not make it frizz.

Also available are Heat resistant Fibre wigs usually safe up to 350 degrees F. Some have human hair mixed with heat resistant fibres, these look and feel like natural hair. You could cook with these type of wigs but you still don’t want really high heat on the fibers. You can use curling irons at low to medium settings.There are definitely a lot more styles and colors available to from with High-Tech synthetic fibers……The prices for the Heat resistant wigs are approximately half the price of Human Hair wigs.Human Hair wigs are very close to your own natural hair…Exposed to the sun the color will eventually change /oxidize and you will need your stylist to put the color in to revive it.Basically Human hair is more expensive because it is natural hair. Sometimes more difficult to find the exact color and style that you are looking for…You have to look beyond what you are seeing in the mirror as nearly all wigs whether Synthetic or Human Hair will need some thinning, cutting or shaping just for you. Wearing wigs instead of hairpieces will give your own hair a chance to perhaps restore and get healthier.

Extra tip for tax time……When purchasing a wig for medical reasons you are exempt from paying 8% PST with a prescription from you doctor. You can then submit your invoice to Revenue Canada if you don’t have any personal insurance.

Confidently Beautiful,
