Firstly it will help you soak up the alcohol then your body can process it a lot easier. Also it will stop you needing to go to the toilet after every drink.<br />Thirdly if the unthinkable happens and you do end up emptying your stomach it’s better to at least puke multi coloured peas and carrots than stomach bile.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Purchase your alcohol in adavance:</span><br />If you buy your alcohol then at least you know what you’re drinking.<br />Letting someone else supply you with alcohol removes a lot of control over how pissed you get. It seems like a silly pedantic issue but you can just imagine what that good looking guy is aiming for when he mixes those cocktails and sends you a wink.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Check your wallet:</span><br />Make sure your wallet contains: ID horrible course of events follow if you can’t produce it upon police requests, money for the taxi home because despite what you think now you WON’T feel like walking at 5am, a condom just in case, house keys (nothing worse than having to wake the rest of the house up as you try desperately to get someone to let you in, and of course Lip balm in preparation for that New Year’s kiss.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br />Know your limit:</span><br />Know how fast your BAC goes up and weigh the potential negative consequences of a high BAC.<br />You can enjoy alcohol without putting yourself at risk.<br />For maximum enjoyment and safety consider a BAC limit of .05-.06.<br />Stop drinking when you have reached your limit.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br /></span>Always have a designated driver.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">During:<br /><br />Count your drinks:<br /></span>This way at least you will realize when you go over the top how the heck you got so plastered. You will also realize you are unable to drive, and that you probably shouldn’t take on any sort of responsibility.<br />Best to be aware of your capabilities or incapacitaties as the case may be.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br />Don't mix:<br /></span>Stick with one kind of alcohol.<br />Nothing will make you flake faster than a cocktail of liqueurs swilling around in your stomach.<br />If you want to see the stroke of twelve then stay loyal to one beverage.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />In particular:<br /></span>Raise the percentage.<br />Don't drink beer after wine.<br />Wine after beer is fine.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Drink water:<br /></span>Drink water while drinking alcohol.<br />Use the water to quench your thirst, not the alcohol when you are thirsty, you drink faster, and alcohol only contributes to dehydration.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br />Drink slowly:<br /></span>Space your drinks.<br />Your body needs time to process alcohol.<br />You may want to alternate alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br />Watch out for your friends:<br /></span>Make sure you keep tabs on your mates.<br />Take their keys off them and mind they don’t got wandering on their own.<br />If they doze off make sure you keep an eye on them and check that they are breathing OK.<br />Also have them watch out for you. 90% of all college date and acquaintance rapes are alcohol related.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Avoid drinking games:<br /></span>Competitive drinking puts pressure on you to drink more than the right amount for you. Remember, BAC level per drink differs radically according to weight, gender and metabolic factors.<br />Maximize the quality of your experience.<br />Don’t try to match someone else.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br />Organize a place to stay:<br /></span>There is nothing worse than wandering the streets drunk, disorientated and with nowhere to go. Organize where you are staying in advance, even make your bed before hand.<br />It will make that 4am drop into deep, deep sleep that much sweeter.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Have some toast on marmite before you crash:<br /></span>As a trivial remedy a couple of pieces of marmite on toast before crashing out helos with the stomach vengeance the morning after.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />How to drink vodka and stay sober:<br /></span>Russians do everything to stay sober while drinking as much alcohol as possible.<br />Basic principles of vodka drinking for the unitiated:<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />One hour before the party:<br /></span>Eat a couple of boiled potatoes.<br />Drink one or two raw eggs.<br />Drink one or two table-spoons of olive oil.<br />Sunflower oil will also do.<br />Thus it’s guaranteed that at the Russian party you will stay sober for at least one bottle of vodka.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br />At the party:<br /></span>If you start drinking vodka drink only vodka.<br />No beer or wine.<br />No water or juice.<br />Carbonated drinks are taboo.<br />Drink vodka only in shots.<br />Never sip.<br />Eat immediately after taking a shot.<br />Russian zakuskis are often translated as appetizers.<br />That’s not quite correct.<br />Zakuskis are something you ‘zakusyvayesh’ with after taking a shot of vodka.<br />They are very important to neutralize alcohol.<br />That’s why they all contain two most important alcohol neutralizers acid and salt.<br />I recommend taking the following sequence:<br />immediately after taking a shot two slices of lemon;<br />then some salted cucumbers, pickles, marinated tomatoes or caviar.<br />then something with a lot of oil: herring traditionally with cold boiled potatoes and onion, sardines, or shproty small smoked sprats in olive oil;<br />then traditional Russian salads, like Oliviye or Herring with boiled beet and mayonnaise.<br />Almost all Russian salads come under heavy mayonnaise dressing. Remember – acid, salt, eggs and oil.<br />Ukrainians and Southern Russians prefer smoked lard with garlic but it’s a zakuska for professionals.<br />Only three first vodka shots at a Russian party are ‘obligatory’<br />Russian tradition explained<br />Zakuskis part of the party take about an hour or something like 200 grams (4 shots) of vodka. Then comes “goryacheye” hot dishes. Even though zakuskis could be very filling you should eat goryacheye if you want not be become drunk.<br />Actively participate in intellectual talks around the table.<br />Mental activity is probably the best method to keep you excited but sober.<br />Try, for example, to drink two pints of beer while reading a philosophical book and see the result.<br />At the end of the party come tea and cakes.<br />Don’t miss it too.<br />This way you show your hosts that you’re survived the party without dire consequences.<br />Now in the course of 4 or 5 hours you drunk a bottle of vodka (500 grams) and you’re only slightly tight.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />After the party:<br /></span>Keep a small bottle of beer in refrigerator. Wake up at about 5 in the morning, drink your beer and go back to bed.<br />It prevents hang-over in the morning.<br />If the early morning beer didn’t help (it usually does), drink a glass of brine from the jar you kept you pickles in.<br />Many Russians recommend taking a shot of vodka in the morning to fights hang-over.<br />Don’t do it.<br />It helps only alcoholics.<br />If you’re not, it will make things worse.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Prevent hangovers:<br /></span><span>To prevent hangovers, take two aspirin, a glass of water, and three shots of Jager before going to bed.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">After:<br /><br />Water, water, water:<br /></span>When you wake up and you feel like you’ve eaten a plate of sand and listened to a rock band full boar that will be your body screaming out for re hydration.<br />Drink a glass of water, and then another and then another.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br />Cure hangovers:<br /></span>A hangover is caused by a combination of the toxic by product of alcohol metabolism (acetaldehyde), dehydration, and Vitamin A, B (particularly B6) and C depletion caused by the chemical action of alcohol on your system.<br />The symptoms are usually a dry mouth, nausea, fatigue, dizziness and headache and are caused by a combination of these factors.<br />Some drinks give you worse hangovers than others due to the actions of impurities called Congeners. While it's the ethyl alcohol (ethanol) that gets you drunk, amyl alcohol, butyl alcohol, methyl alcohol, propyl alcohol, and isopropyl alcohol is also found in most drinks to varying degrees, and the concentration of these Congeners will go a long way to determining the severity of the hangover.<br />Vodka and gin (clear liquors) are generally lower in congeners than whisky, rum and bourbon, due to the filtering process involved, and hence usually give a less intense hangover. Unfortunately the congeners also give flavor, smell and appearance to alcohol.<br />Another contributor to the hangover is the "freshness" of the alcohol since the natural oxidation product of ethanol is also acetaldehyde.<br />Finishing off an already open bottle of red, or drinking beer that's been in the boot of your car for a week, will provide you with a ready made supply of acetaldehyde so you don't have to wait for your liver to make it in order to have a really good hangover.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Hangover cures:<br /></span>Most hangover "remedies" simply attend to one or more of the symptoms and don't really provide a cure as such. The hangover won't stop until the alcohol is out of your system:<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Berocca:</span><br />Puts the vitamin B back in, as well as the big glass of water it's mixed with. It's probably best to do this before you go out.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Coke:</span><br />Fizz for the nausea, liquid for the dehydration, and a caffeine and sugar hit to make you feel a bit more lively.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Coffee:</span><br />Same as Coke but without the bubbles to help ease the nausea.<br />Try it with honey instead of sugar since the fructose is absorbed quicker than the sucrose in normal sugar, and it's better for you.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Ginseng:</span><br />It's been noted that since caffeine is a diuretic like alcohol, it can actually make the dehydration worse, so try the herbal equivalent instead.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Vegemite On Toast</span>:<br />Something in your stomach is good, and salty is even better.<br />Plus you get a Vitamin B top up.<br />The same reasons also make peanut butter a good choice, but the oily nature might make some sensitive stomachs feel a bit yucky.<br />If you do try try this one, skip the butter and just have dry toast.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Cold Pizza:</span><br />Who knows, but it seems to work.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Asprin</span>:<br />Simply attends to the headache and does nothing for the level of alcohol in your system.<br />Don't take them before you go to bed.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Bananas:</span><br />Sugar in the form of fructose, and potassium, which is one of the things you lose lots of when you drink.<br />Bananas are also a natural antacid to help with the nausea, and are high in magnesium which can help relax those pounding blood vessels causing that hangover headache.<br />For a variety of reasons try a peanut butter, honey and banana sandwich on white bread.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Vitamin C:</span><br />Another thing the alcohol takes out that you're advised to put back in as soon as possible.<br />Orange juice, tomato, a 600mg Vitamin C tablet doesn't matter, just do it.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />A Hot Bath: </span><br />The heat will sweat out the toxins that are causing all the problems.<br />You'll feel a bit woozy at first but go with it and you'll feel better afterwards.<br />Drink a sports drink like Gatorade or Powerade.<br />Eat mineral rich food like pickles or canned fish.<br />Stay away from milk and other dairy products they may make you feel more queasy.<br />In Poland, drinking pickle juice is a common remedy.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">A few remedy cocktails that at least won't make you feel worse:</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Poor Man's Bloody Mary:</span><br

secs.<br />Add rest of jelly and a bit more hot water. Microwave for 1 minute.<br />Pour into cups.<br />Refigerate.<br />Serve with custard.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Place a call to one of your close companions and get a post analysis of the nights events:</span><br />Just in case you missed anything in between trips to the bathroom or after you fell asleep on the couch.<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Ring the bank:<br /></span>And brace yourself for how much you spent those rounds of New Years cheer never seem as expensive when you order them as they do the morning after.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br />Clean up:<br /></span>If tragedy struck and you lost your lunch somewhere in the course of the night then now’s the time to find it, and clean it up.<br /><br /></span></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKaLa1biFYaUm3FZ1gh-oqruO6yN5e8_ZpqU0d0Lk3CR9nzguuMrcsQvV5K3ZCb3Dz2zb7ZxP00yBiWikBfBwfaGvsUuA5wCVFv9jsgI7EPJujOOSvIzCWH1uvw83Ygo2bucXEmA32xOjW/s1600-h/Healthy-000.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Research studies and clinical tests have demonstrated that bee pollen has an immunizing effect, enhances vitality, and can counteract the effects of radiation and chemical toxins.<br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" ><br />Echinacea.<br /></span><span style="font-family:arial;">Herbalists consider Echinacea one of the best blood purifiers and an effective antibiotic.<br />It activates the body's immune system increasing the chances of fighting off any disease.<br />This popular herb has been used to help ward off the common cold and to relieve the symptoms of hay fever.<br />The Plains Indians used various species of echinacea to treat poisonous insect and snake bites, toothaches, sore throat, wounds, as well as mumps, smallpox, and measles.<br />The settlers quickly adopted the therapeutic use of the plant, and since that time it has become one of the top selling herbs in the United States.<br />Since the early 1900's hundreds of scientific articles have been written about echinacea.<br />Most of the research during the past 10 years has focused on the immunostimulant properties of the plant.<br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" ><br />Garlic.<br /></span><span style="font-family:arial;">Is a member of the onion family and is nature's most versatile medicinal plant.<br />Modern scientists in numerous clinical trials have concluded that Garlic lowers cholesterol, lowers blood pressure, thins the blood (which reduces your risk of heart attack and stroke) and fights bacteria like an antibiotic.<br />One medium clove of Garlic can equal the antibacterial action equivalent to 1% penicillin. Although Garlic directly attacks bacteria and viruses, it also stimulates the body's natural defenses against foreign invaders.<br />Garlic increases the activity of white blood cells and T-helper cells (natural killer cells), the cells that are central to the activity of the entire immune system.<br />Garlic is reported to be more effective than penicillin against typhus disease, and works well against strep, staph bacteria, and the organisms responsible for cholera, dysentery and enteritis.<br />It is generally regarded as a preventative measure for colds, flu and other infectious diseases. Furthermore, scientific studies have shown that garlic stimulates the production of the liver's own detoxifying enzymes which neutralize carcinogens and other environmental toxins.<br />It has also been used to rid the body of intestinal parasites and to treat digestive infections. Garlic also seems to prevent cells from turning cancerous by enhancing the body's mechanisms for removing toxic substances.<br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" ><br />Spirulina.<br /></span><span style="font-family:arial;">Is a fresh water blue green algae and contains concentrations of nutrients unlike any other single grain, herb, or plant.<br />It has the essential fatty acids gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), linoleic and arachidonic acids; is virtually the only vegetarian source of vitamin B12, which is (needed for healthy red blood cells; and contains significant amounts of iron, protein (60 to 70 percent), essential amino acids, the nucleic acids RNA and DNA, and chlorophyll.<br />Spirulina is a naturally digestible food that helps to protect the immune system, reduce blood cholesterol levels, and boost the absorption of necessary minerals.<br />Taking spirulina in supplement form is beneficial while fasting, as it supplies the nutrients needed to cleanse and heal, while also curbing the appetite.<br />If you have hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), you may benefit from using this food supplement. Animal studies repeatedly show that spirulina hinders the growth of oral cancer.<br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" ><br />Tea tree oil.<br /></span><span style="font-family:arial;">The essential oils of this native Australian tree is steam distilled from the leaves and twigs.<br />Used extensively by Australian aboriginals for medicinal purposes and named for its usage as tea.<br />Especially beneficial topically, and gentle enough to be used internally.<br />Tea Tree oil is thought to have antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal properties.<br />It is also a powerful immuno-stimulant, helping the body respond better to these organisms.<br />Tea tree oil is widely used in skin care products because it is thought to be beneficial in treating so many different skin care conditions from rash to acne.<br /><br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgl9LTZQKqrxzFsMm1HeIpntMMui4vjeEx-XGFEMfqywwhbJo7s2kFd7-mXHqA0d3VV8hA1p2fFuCglV3b0l7-pmfgsgKpeMZiILQ7s7btaWQ8G_J8hlpli-ooliBGWEp7FpRXp2mN7fD-y/s1600-h/Healthy-000.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 225px; height: 226px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgl9LTZQKqrxzFsMm1HeIpntMMui4vjeEx-XGFEMfqywwhbJo7s2kFd7-mXHqA0d3VV8hA1p2fFuCglV3b0l7-pmfgsgKpeMZiILQ7s7btaWQ8G_J8hlpli-ooliBGWEp7FpRXp2mN7fD-y/s400/Healthy-000.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5282325341695434434" border="0" /></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1742195143767818247.post-77359048673797317092008-12-19T13:02:00.000-08:002008-12-23T01:34:15.234-08:00Babycare tips<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">Babies, despite starting so small, are Big consumers, but there is lots of potential for them to be consumers.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">Baby magazines provide long lists of everything a newborn baby needs:</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">Cots, prams, changing tables, high chairs and nursery furniture; lots of small items of clothing, and bedding and blankets just the right size to fit the cot and the pram; baby shampoo, oil, soap, cleansers; bottles and bottle sterilising kit; baby milks and baby food; not to mention packets and packets of nappies.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">All these and much more are now available, from a growing number of suppliers, in greener, more environmentally-friendly versions.
