..."keeps the doctor away," the old saying goes. Of course, this statement primarily implies that apples keep you healthy by strengthening your immune system (thanks to Vitamin C) to avoid sickness. However, did you know that an apple a day can also help you lose weight, accumulate good cholesterol, clean your teeth, and prevent illnesses like Alzheimer's, heart disease, and cancer? In short, the apple's low caloric content make a scrumptious means for calorie deduction that leads to weight loss, flavonoids keep the heart happy, phenols lower bad cholesterol and higher good cholesterol, and finally - the juices zap away 80% of bacteria in teeth. Who knew a healthy lifestyle could ever be this sweet?

"LOOK/FEEL GOOD" TIP OF THE DAY - SAY "OLIVE OIL"

The stereotypical Italian meal may be structured as an overload of refined pasta, bread, cheese, veal, sauce, and cannolis. However, what many people don't know is that the Mediterranean diet (which also consists of Italian food) is considered to be one of the healthiest eating regimens. In other words, there is nutritious Italian food - Italian food, other than heavy gnocchi and greasy pizza. The Mediterranean diet contains delicious but nutritious items like heart-loving red wine, good-fattening extra virgin olive oil, fibre-filled whole grain pasta, protein-supplementing grilled fish, and iron-rich non-starch vegetables.     

"LOOK/FEEL GOOD" TIP OF THE DAY - FIGHT CELLULITE

Over 90% of women - thin or thick - complain about having cellulite. And while some of those women may exercise and eat right, their dimpled monsters still remain. Why? Well, when cellulite can be produced by unstoppable factors such as stress, genetics, and aging, it's difficult or even impossible to reverse the traces of time. However, even though there is no universal cure, medication, or treatment to completely eliminate cellulite for everyone, certain ingredients can temporarily but expeditiously improve its appearance. Spa treatments often include sources like algae, pure aloe, and caffeine, which assist in detoxifying and tightening up skin, while building collagen and firming appearance. So, does that mean drinking coffee can get rid of cellulite, too?

"LOOK/FEEL GOOD" TIP OF THE DAY - (WALK) YOUR WAY TO HEALTH!

Even though it may be something we do everyday and take for granted, we shouldn't underestimate the power of walking. A mere 10-15 minute brisk stroll daily can reap major benefits, like reducing stress and the risks of cancer or heart problems. Wanna melt that stomach pooch? Grab a pedometer, and calculate 8,000 steps a day to earn your weight loss goals, in addition to a flatter tummy. Can you handle a challenge? Up your heart rate and cardiovascular endurance by pressing more incline on the treadmill or adding hills to your routine.  

"LOOK/FEEL GOOD" TIP OF THE DAY - TOOTHPASTE GOOD FOR MORE THAN JUST YOUR TEETH?

Here's a classic tip I got from teen magazines back in the day (well, in Grade 7). Apparently, applying toothpaste onto your skin overnight can help zits disappear more quickly. Toothpaste supposedly dries the oil-iness that factors in with acne. This one time at camp (seriously), I saw one roommate attempt this tip. I can't recall the results, yet I still wonder - does this really work?

"LOOK/FEEL GOOD" TIP OF THE DAY - CROSS IT WITH A "V"

Whether a sweet, subtle cut or a dangerously plunging neckline, the v-neck promises "vertical" attention that eludes body symmetry and thinness. It also creates and flaunts luscious cleavage!
