How a Poor Diet Works Against Hair Growth: 
The American diet is full of meats, sugar, breads, and processed foods. Beverages are often over sized and full of artificial colorings and dozens of grams of sugar. Bottom line your body does not know what to do with fake foods. 
In order for your body to function properly your body needs nutrients. By in taking food without significant nutritional value then you are doing your body a disservice. 
Your hair and nails are the last part of your body that will receive nutrients. Your main vital organs will receive the bulk of the nutrients that your body has to offer. That is why that if you are suffering from hair loss then you need more vitamin rich food.

By having enough vitamin rich food you are ensuring that your hair gets enough nutrients. 

Vitamins for Hair Loss:
· Biotin
· Vitamin C
· Vitamin B

Biotin
Biotin is an awesome vitamin for hair loss. Biotin helps with the formation of hair. This vitamin produces keratin, which prevents hair loss and graying. You can get this component from a capsule form or in foods like carrots, almonds, or walnuts.

However, you want to ensure that you have a natural source of biotin if you choose to take the supplemental form. 

Vitamin C
Vitamin C is great for your immune system. The C vitamin also helps facilitate hair growth. This antioxidant helps to maintain healthy hair. Broccoli, oranges, kiwi all possesses substantial amounts of vitamins C.

Vitamin B

There are quite a few variations of the B vitamin. B3, B5, B6, and B12 all help with to prevent hair loss. B3 aids in scalp blood circulation. In cases where people are loosing hair a common factor is that many times they have poor blood circulation. You definitely want to reverse this problem by taking a Vitamin B complex. Vitamin B is common in plenty of common foods including milk, chicken, eggs, and organ meats. 

There are more vitamins that aid with hair growth. In some circumstances an increase in vitamin intake may not reverse the effects of hair loss. There may be another problem that you have. 
If you are on prescription drugs then that may be causing you to loose hair. Definitely check out the side effects of the drug that you are taking. If there are adverse side effects then you may want to look at a natural proven alternative. Consult your physician before you make changes.

Vitamins Are Beneficial, But Do We Really Need Them

As we all know, vitamins are important when it comes to correct functioning of the body. There are two ways to get these organic compounds: through foods and health supplements. The body cannot produce enough of them to keep it working properly. Vitamins are essential, but supplements alone are not enough.

Nutrition is the key to maintaining great health. It is also a rule of accomplishing significant weight loss. Fruits, vegetables and meats all have nutrients, on the other hand, some of us do not eat enough of the daily amount, and that is where supplements come in.

Types: 
There are 13 different vitamins that are known today: A, B1, B2, B5, B6, B7, B9, B12, C, D, E, and K. There are two types of vitamins: water-soluble and fat-soluble. The water-soluble vitamins are the B vitamins and vitamin C. These vitamins must be replenished daily because the body does not produce them. Fat-soluble vitamins are stored in the body: fat tissues and the liver. They do not need to be replenished daily. Fat-soluble vitamins include A, D, E and K.

The way they function: Each vitamin has its own unique function and specific purpose, sates The New York Times. They are responsible for the formation of cells, a healthy metabolism and a strong immune system. Vitamins A and C help keep the teeth and gums healthy while protecting mucus membranes and promote wound healing. Skin care is important and in order to have healthy skin, Vitamin E has to be in your beauty regimen. Vitamin E helps with the utilization of vitamin K and slows the body's aging process.
The B vitamin works together for adequate production of red blood cells as normal nerve function. Vitamin K prevents blood clotting while Vitamin D helps absorbs calcium for strong bones. All food groups are necessary for obtaining these nutrients.

Sources: 
Fruit and veggies contain these compounds, taking a supplement helps boost your daily value. Supplements should never take the place of a healthy diet. Eating healthy foods is very important in order for the body to keep going and block certain illness. Fruits and vegetables contain high amounts of Vitamin C, and K, while Vitamin E can be found in nuts and oils. Olive oil is an example of healthy oils. 

Vitamins D and B vitamins are potent in oysters, fortified dairy and fish. Lean fish is tuna and salmon. Catfish is a fatty fish, although all fish contain mercury, it should be consumed occasionally such as once or twice a week. More of the B vitamin and vitamin A can be found in animal products such as eggs and red and white meat.

Overdose: 
Only take the recommended daily amount. This is very important there is no real risk of overdosing on vitamins with foods; however, some fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamin A can be toxic when taken in large amounts. Vitamins need energy in order to absorb. Do not take them on an empty stomach; it is better to take them with a meal. If taken before eating it can cause nausea and fatigue, you will not reap the benefits from them. 
The fact is vitamins are essential for a healthy life. Remember not to substitute them for foods. Get the most benefits from nutrition by consuming both.

How to Reduce Shaving Friction

Most men shave.
Some do so with a razor and others with an electric razor but most men use some kind of hair shaving item.

DISCOVER ELDAR KABIRI ON INSTAGRAM HERE.

Here are some helpful tips to reduce shaving friction:
Before shaving:
Gently scrub your face with a loofah or facial scrub lotion. This scrub helps remove dead skin, bring out ingrown hairs, and reduces razor burn rashes
Lighten Up: 
Let the shaver do the work. Shave with light, gentle strokes. Using too much pressure can cause redness, irritation, nicks and even damage to you shaver.
Trim First:
If you are going to shave an area with lots of hair, trim the hair down to a manageable length before shaving.

Direction of hair growth:
Shave in the direction of hair growth whenever possible. This prevents cutting the hair below your skin's surface and reduces skin irritation and friction. The University of Alabama, Birmingham cautions against making repeated strokes in the same area. Doing so increases skin irritation
Work clean:
Rinse your razor frequently during use to remove hair and skin flakes. Frequent rinsing will also prolong the life of your blade and prevent dullness. MayoClinic.com recommends rinsing your blade after every stroke to prevent ingrown hairs and shaving bumps
Blade Maintenance:
Dip the blade in rubbing alcohol after the final rinse. Blades last much longer than most people think. The apparent dulling of the blade is due to the formation of microscopic "teeth" on the edge, made up of mineral crystals from the water. These drag against the skin, causing the blade to grab and producing cuts and much of the razor burn. The alcohol will displace the water and the minerals in it, and evaporate without leaving residue. Store the razor with the blade edges upward.
After shaving:
Soothe your skin after shaving by applying a moisturizing ointment or baby oil. The Palo Alto Medical Foundation recommends aloe vera for sensitive skin and warns against using aftershave. MayoClinic.com states that cool compresses may also be beneficial.

Things We Didn't Use To Do

Once upon a time, all a man needed to do in order to be a man (in the sence of skin care) was: Brush his teeth, wash his face, shave in the morning. Those are all but a fond memorys.

In our day and age, good grooming and plenty of it is the order of the day for both sexes, proper skin care is essential for the present and the future. Skin is the body's first line of defense against sickness, germs, and diseases.
Additionally, as we age, our skin loses its elastic nature. Thus, we develop wrinkles and facial lines. For these reasons alone, proper skin care is important
Men should realize that proper skin care need not take copious amounts of time. A few minutes a day is all that is necessary.

So, men: what will you have to do in order to stay in style today?

First, figure out your skin type: normal skin, oily skin, dry skin, sensitive skin or combination skin (or ask the woman in your life),

Then, Exfoliate!

REAL men exfoliate,
Because:
Men would actually benefit more from exfoliating than women!
This is because it is already a known fact that men have thicker skin than women.
So exfoliation helps men reveal softer and even toned skin.
Remember: exfoliation wipes off all the dead skin on your face. Plus, if it's that good for our faces it can do the same for our body.

Shaving is always rough on your face, so do it right. If you use a blade, make sure that your face is coated with a thin stream of hot water before applying shaving cream. Give the cream a few minutes to settle in. Use a sharp razor that has a double blade attached to it. Take your time. Rinse with cold water, not hot. Applying after shave cream such as Afta works better than applying liquid. If you use an electric razor, apply pre-shave lotion to enable your whiskers to stand up and keeps your shaver gliding easily across your face. It will also lessen the irritation and burn that comes with electric shaving.

Immediately after the the attack. after eliminating these reasonable causes  and  finding them not be the cause of the problem, a Panic Disorder can be considered.
A Panic attack reachs maximum intensity within a minute or two once it begins. They die down slowly over the next half an hour or the next several hours. It is common for the first attack to cause a person to go to a hospital. Subsequent attacks occur several times a month and are often as severe as the initial attack.

  • raging heartbeat
  • difficulty breathing, feeling as though you 'can't get enough air
  • hot flashes, or sudden chills
  • dizziness, lightheadedness or nausea

Women are more susceptible to Panic Disorders. Panic Anxiety Disorder begins most often in the third decade of life. It is less often in teenagers or persons in their forties. It is rare that it appears in the elderly for the first time.





Home Remedies for Anxiety

Take a look at how our nervous system handles anxiety:
Essentially, anxiety is part of the "fight or flight" mechanism, That warning system is still necessary for today's emergencies The trouble is, we experience the manifestations of the "fight or flight" mechanism even when it's not really appropriate to our modern day stressors.
Unfortunately, although they're not real, anxiety attacks are very dangerous since when you are having one, it is virtually impossible to convince you that everything is going to be O.K.

How to make Alcohol at Home

Fundamentally making alcohol is simple. the yeast eats sugar and makes alcohol and CO2. All alcohol types starts out that way. 
In wine the grapes or other fruits natural sugars are eaten by yeast and alcohol and CO2 is made, beer's sugars derive from grain like barley, wheat, and others which, again, is eaten by yeast and converted to alcohol and CO2.

You can find more specific details the yeast can only eat so much sugar...too much to start with will harm it. Yeast can only survive so much alcohol...too much kills it.

Wine is simply grape (or other fruit) juice that has yeast added and it ferments. Fermentation is the term for the yeast eating the sugars. over time.
In the old days, the naturally occurring yeast in the air which would accumulate on the grape skins were enough to start the fermentation. The results were pretty random, sometimes it would be a good year, but in other times, not so good. today, winemakers destroy the wild yeasts and add their own so they get consistent and predictable uniform results.

Beer is similar to wine, however there's an extra step. It comes from grain, but grain doesn't have naturally occurring sugars in abundance. When grain (particularly barley and corn) begins to sprout, an enzyme develops. These enzymes convert starch to sugar. People learned to partially sprout and then halt the sprouting process to harness these enzymes, called "malting." The malted grain is then used to convert the starches into fermentable sugars. then yeast is added and fermentation process occurs.

Vodka and other spirits require one additional step. Distillation. Fermentation is the only way alcohol is MADE. Distillation doesn't make alcohol, it is simple a process that concentrates it. To make spirits, you have to first ferment a kind of alcoholic brew like beer or wine or similar (in distilling terms this is calld "wash"). Once the wash has been brewed, it is put into a still where the alcohol is concentrated. it boils into a vapor, the vapor is collected and condensed back into a liquid. that is how to make strong alcohol.

The brewing part hard work, whether you're making wine or beer. It is, however  perfectly legal to do it at home. You can either start from scratch or buy kits. Either way, you're allowed to make up to 100 gallons for every person of legal drinking age in your household, Maximum amount of 2 people. The same applies to wine and beer -100 gallons of each per person.
Distilling, (due to safety and tax reasons in the US) is illegal to do in the home and not legal to do it. it requires a permit. The exception to this is New Zealand, Greece, and a handful of other countries and nations.


Do a web search for home brewing supply stores in your area to get the supplies you will need and to talk to some one who has all the answers and will be very helpful for tips, recipes, and anything else you may want to know.

The Techniques Of Muay Thai

Most of the offensive techniques that are used in Muay Thai utilize a students hands, feet, elbows, and knees to strike an opponent. In order to bind the opponent both for defensive and offensive reasons, there is a small amount of grappling on the feet that is used - the clinch. 

DISCOVER ELDAR KABIRI ON INSTAGRAM HERE.

The clinch takes place when someone gets in your circle of radius, inside of your comfort zone. To execute knees and short kicks from the inside, the clinch can be very helpful. The Thai fighter makes great use of the clinch, tying up on opponent on the feet then pounding his stomach, ribs, knees, and legs with brutal knees. Knees are extremely popular techniques with Muay Thai, as Thai martial artists spend a lot of time training their strikes - especially knees and elbows. 
Although high kicks towards the opponents head looks amazing during the fights, experienced Thai fighters always say that knees and elbows have a lot more impact, and they do the most harm to the body. If a Thai fighter is very skilled and has sufficient power in his strikes, he can quickly and easily kill someone with his techniques.

In all Muay Thai techniques, two in particular have grown to be very popular with other styles of martial arts.

The roundhouse kick
The roundhouse Thai kick is definitely a helpful technique for both self defense and competitions, proving to be really useful when it is executed properly. Thai stylists execute the roundhouse kick by way of a straight leg and also the entire body rotating out from the hip. The hip is locked shortly prior to thrown leg makes impact with the adversary. If executed properly, the roundhouse kick can easily render an individual unconscious. 

The low kick
The low kick is a very common Muay Thai attack, which involves a round movement from the stylistís body to kick the opponent in his upper shin area. If the low kick isnít blocked or guarded, it can rapidly lead to fight being ended. After a few well placed low kicks, the opponent will be unable to put pressure on his legs due to the bruising, and will eventually crumble.

With other martial arts, such as Tae Kwon Do, stylists use snapping kicks that are indeed faster to execute, although they have less power. Muay Thai on the other hand, teaches stylists to follow through with kicks, while using shin instead of the foot. Nearly all of the techniques involved with Muay Thai focus on motion with the entire body, which means rotating the hip each time the stylist kicks, punches, or blocks. The techniques are slower, even though they are far more powerful that techniques found in Tae Kwon Do and also Karate.

As many people already know, the training and conditioning training found in Muay Thai is nothing less than legendary for the intensity and rigorous training. The training in Muay Thai aims to harden the weapons used in the martial art to a high degree. Students who have been training in Muay Thai for many years can absorb a beating, yet if they land a shin kick it will feel as if you have just been hit with a sledgehammer.
On the whole, Muay Thai is a very risky martial art that teaches punishing blows with very little grappling. Thai stylists are physical strong, able to take an opponent out with just one able strike. Muay Thai is also one of the most well known and most popular styles in the world today - which is why you shouldnít hesitate to study.

An Overview of Belts

In most types of martial arts, the color of the belt that you wear will signify your rank within your specific style of martial arts.  The belts that are used with martial arts signify your rank within that style, although they have no international means or ranking within the martial arts world.  More or less, they tell others how much you know about your specific martial art.

DISCOVER ELDAR KABIRI ON INSTAGRAM HERE.

The use of colord belts in martial arts is an old practice, dating back centuries.  Belts and their use in martial arts all started by a man called Jigoro Kano, who created the style known as Kodokan Judo.  Kano started out by using only white and black belts to signify rank within his style of martial arts.  His reason for using belts, was to specify which students could compete in different activities.  As an example, those with white belts could not compete in the same activities as those that had black belts.
Not long after Kano introduced his idea of using belts, other belt colors were introduced in the world of martial arts.  Over the years, it became a excellent way of telling what experience a student had in his style - simply by looking at his belt.  Other styles including Karate and Taekwondo began to use this system as well over the years, as well as several others.

The only problem with using belts to signify ranking, is the fact that one school of martial arts may have different requirements from another school.  Although they both may teach the same style of martial arts, their ranking system and requirements to get a certain ranking may be completely different.  This can result in confusion in ranks, especially if a black belt from one school isnít as versed in the style as a black belt from another school.  Although most schools stick to the same ranking system, there are schools that choose to combine their own unique style as well.

Although most martial arts styles use belts to signify rank and, there are some martial arts out there such as Shootfighting that donít use belts at all.  The styles that choose not to use belts donít go by rankings either, as they are, in any case, for self defense purposes.  Pitfighting is another style that do not use belts either. These styles are great to learn for protecting one's own self - although they differ from the traditional sense of martial arts.
All things aside, belts are an innovation to martial arts.  They give students something to aim for and a purpose , and a reason to keep practicing.  Most students that study martial arts aim for getting the black belt, which is the most prestige belt in martial arts.  A black belt takes years of practice to obtain, as the student will move through many lower ranked belts before getting the opportunity to try and earn the black belt.
