Sun burn solution and more from Dr. Oz
Yes, I know, it’s embarrassing I watch Dr. Oz. I just have the tv on in the background and he comes on! But, as I suffer through it, I pick up a lot of great tips. Yesterday, there were so many I couldn’t type fast enough to keep up. Here are the ones I thought would be most helpful for you:
1. Sun Burn Remedy
Slice a fresh potato in half or blend one up in water. Apply to the sunburn and then rise off. He says their phytochemicals will help ease your pain and heal the burn.
2. Split Ends.
Give yourself a beer rinse! Let your hair soak for 5 minutes and then rinse with shampoo and conditioner.
3. Weight Loss.
Dr. Oz referred viewers to the 7 day crash diet from Dr. Joel Fuhrman. The lady who they had give reactions to the rules of this diet seemed very uncomfortable with it (and giving up sugar on everything!), but it sounds reasonable to me. Eat 90% fruits and veggies and 10% meat and dairy. They advised lean breakfasts, belly-blasting bean lunches, and “skinny” shakes.  Try to include BOMs in your meals. That is, eat more berries, onions, and mushrooms to help shed pounds. Click the link for all the details.
4. Dog Care
There were a bunch of different topics regarding dogs. Most of his answers I already incorporate into Mason’s life, like mixing wet food and dry food to keep your dogs happy and their teeth clean. For more detailed tips, click here.
