5 Warning Signs for a Stroke

Symptoms of a Stroke

I like to publish these lists because I think it is important that everyone be aware. So here are the five warning signs of a stroke:

Your speech has become slurred or you’re having trouble speaking or understanding what others are saying.

You experience sudden weakness or numbness on one side of the body.

You suddenly lose vision in one eye or both eyes.

You have a severe and sudden headache.

You lose your balance, becoming unstable.

Portion Control We Can Relate To

Food Portion Serving Size

I am a firm believer in portion control. The trick is though to know what the right portion is. Once a friend who was on Weight Watchers showed what the portion was for cereal. I was stunned when I realized what I thought was one serving was really about three. So when I came across this great chart in Woman’s Day magazine that had the appropriate serving in terms of common everyday items that you can relate to, I wanted to share it with readers.

Natural Skin Care

Homemade Body Scrub

If you haven’t got time to run out and buy one or just want to save money, here is a quick and easy way to make a homemade body scrub.

Body Scrub

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup olive oil
10 drops essential oil

Combine ingredients and gently rub over your body. Concentrate on areas that are prone to dry rough skin. Rinse off and pat dry.

Essential oils can be found at health food stores, health sections of grocery stores or you can order online. Lavender is a great one for relaxation, grapefruit is energizing and orange blossom for relieving anxiety (see our post at Curepure.com on Cure Depression with Orange Blossom)
