STAYING HEALTHY DURING TOUGH ECONOMIC TIMES

Many of us are feeling the economic crunch these days. Money is tight and the bills continue to arrive in our mailboxes. Stressful times such as these; demand resiliency on our part, particularly in terms of our exercise and diet habits. Interestingly, a mentally stressed state can promote inflammation throughout the body. Avoiding mental stressors is not likely to be easy during these times, so we must consider the importance of avoiding inflammation caused by other factors, such as a poor diet and lack of exercise.

When you hear the word inflammation, you probably think first about swelling, redness, pain, etc., that can occur following an acute injury, irritation or infection. In general, this is short-term, localized inflammation (confined to a certain area of the body). But inflammation can also occur without physical injury. This is general, body-wide (systemic) inflammation and it can cause subtle biochemical injuries to body tissues, increasing the risk of developing a number of serious diseases over time.

Lean meat, fish, chicken, fruits, vegetables and nuts form the foundation of a diet that limits a postprandial inflammatory response. This is referred to as an anti-inflammatory diet. Not surprisingly, this diet is recommended to help prevent the above-mentioned pro-inflammatory diseases, the treatment of which represents a massive drain on financial resources, both personally and for the businesses. A common argument is I cant afford to eat lots of fruits and vegetables or Healthy foods are expensive. Lets do a quick comparison. A cup of coffee and a doughnut can cost up to $5. A 20 oz. Bottle of soda costs more than a $1. In contrast, a 5-pound bag of frozen carrots, broccoli, and cauliflower costs $5 at Sams Club and a 1-pound container of pre-washed organic salad greens cost about $4. Both of these items can be consumed over several days by several people.

A large sweet potato that can be split between two meals cost about 75 cents. While certain nuts are very expensive (macadamias for example), many are very reasonable. Lean meats, fish and chicken are reasonably priced and can be added to the vegetables and sweet potatoes. Fresh fruit remains very reasonable and should be one of the snacks of choice. Dark chocolate is inexpensive and can be mixed with raw nuts and raisins for a great snack or desert.

It is not more expensive to eat healthy, anti-inflammatory foods, if one shops wisely. Certainly, preventing the expression of chronic disease will save countless dollars and heartaches associated with the accelerated morbidity and mortality associated with pro-inflammatory living. In short, we cannot afford to eat any other way but anti-inflammatory. Paying for expensive medical care will put most of us into debt even when economic times are good. So it makes no sense to pursue disease and expensive medical care with pro-inflammatory lifestyle when economic times are not so good. Talk to your doctor for more information.

Maybelline Dream liquid mousse foundation?

Does anyone know if they actually do sell shades 'Honey Beige' (med 4) or 'Caramel' (dark 2) in the UK?
On the American Maybelline NY website there are about 12 different shades for all skin colours, on the UK site there seems to be loads of light shades and just the one VERY dark shade and no medium shades for people in between very light and very dark (like me).
I really really want to buy this foundation but i can't if they don't have my shade!
Also, are the shades for Dream Matte Mousse the same colour as the shades for Maybelline Dream liquid mousse foundation? e.g. i wear 'Sun Beige' in Dream Matte Mousse but the Sun Beige shade in Maybelline Dream liquid mousse seems way too light!
Help!
Also... is the liquid foundation itself any good?
lol
=D

they sell all shades in england, so dont worry. the thing about the mousse is that it makes your skin look so flawless, you dont need powder either. the liquid makes your face shinier, but is a lot better for your skin. the mouse blocks up your pores, but its so good that it almost doesnt matter. try them both in boots or somewhere similar and see what you think, it depends on what you like.

i think the shades are meant to be the same, but ive noticed that theyr not, itll have to be trial and error for you good luck
