Diet Supplements

I was looking at diet supplements when I came across this article which is worth sharing

Vitamin Supplements and Cancer

A review of 14 studies involving 170,000 participants suggests that vitamin supplements do not protect against cancer of the throat, stomach, liver, intestines, and pancreas. According to the medical magazine Deutsches Ärzteblatt, the antioxidant supplements beta carotene and vitamins A, C, and E not only have no beneficial effect but could even slightly increase the cancer risk. Dr. Richard Sullivan of Cancer Research UK explains: “There are no shortcuts to prevent bowel cancer. If you’re taking vitamins to protect yourself against the disease, you’re wasting your money.” He adds: “The best way to lower the risk is to eat a healthy diet and not smoke.”

Ate and bunso. Do we look alike? Some people don’t think so. I think there are similarities like our cheekbones and baby hairs. :)

Summer Idea

Summer is really the time to lounge outdoors. How refreshing it is to go outside and feel the breeze with the heat creeping in inside our houses. For those with gardens and lounge chairs, the perfect accents are outdoor cushions. I love that it comes with vibrant summer colors. What’s more is that it is currently on SALE. Regular price is $90 but it is now selling for only $45. 50% off! What’s more is that it comes with free shipping too.

This is what we call a great bargain. :)

My Busiest Month of the Year

April is my busiest month so far. I am pioneering so I have to spend at least 50 hours in the ministry. As of yesterday, I already have 31 hours. Not bad huh? I need to be on track as next week, my youngest sister will be graduating. Mom and Dad will be here so that means less time for me to engage in the ministry on that weekend. They will be here starting Friday and will be leaving on Sunday night. We are planning to have a family picture during that week. I am so excited because we bought similar shirts for this. Girls will be wearing a read striped polo while the guys will be in white.

On the office front, we are starting to get busier and busier. We’re kick starting our team expansion and there are a lot of things to plan and implement so that we can deliver the milestones in the desired timeline. At the moment, my outlook calendar is already packed to the full. I hope I can handle all of these with grace.

The Price of Beauty

We were watching the celebrity news last night and I noticed that more and more celebrities are going out in the open to admit that they’ve undergone surgery just to look good. It’s no wonder that Belo and Calayan’s business are booming these days. The trend is that if you are a celebrity who banks on good looks for their career, it is imperative that you spend to go to these beauty medical groups.

For those who don’t have much to spend, they try different diet pills. I have a friend who has been trying these products for quite some time now. Recently she has been researching and reading about Lipofuze reviews. I was relived that she was researching and reading reviews before taking anything. Sometimes these pills and procedures have not so good effects.

Perfect Hamper

I was sorting the laundry yesterday and I noticed that our current hampers are now insufficient to hold all our dirty clothes for the week. I figured out that we needed new ones to keep the clothes from overflowing. The current state looks so messy and disorganized.

I saw the perfect laundry hamper yesterday. It is both a hamper and laundry cart with pop-up handle, 4-inch wheels, and durable water resistant construction. It is perfect for city dwellers like us who rely on laundry shops. Since we have to bring our dirty clothes there, this hamper will make it easier because it has built-in wheels. All we have to do is fill it, zip and roll it to the laundry shops.

Want to see how it looks like? Click the link. :)
