Is it okay to use sunscreen past the expiration date? Well, that depends. The expiration date means that the manufacturer guarantees their product is safe and effective for use until a specified date. Most likely sunscreen will continue to be effective past the expiration date. But, if it smells unusually, has been exposed to extremely high temperatures or the liquid has separated from the cream it’s definitely time to ditch it and buy new. Remember to apply sunscreen 20 minutes before sun exposure and to reapply every 2 hours -- sooner if swimming or sweating.
Many diet plans restrict the consumption of alcohol. And that makes a lot of sense since according to Pamela, M. Peeke, M.D., author of The Hunger Fix, alcohol temporarily keeps your body from burning fat. However, middle-aged women who are moderate drinkers, defined as one drink a day, gained less weight over time and are less likely to become obese than those who never drink. Researchers believe that most likely women who drink moderately compensate by consuming fewer calories and exercising more. Good advice for those of us that want to enjoy an occasional glass of chardonnay.
Lose the panties ladies! When you go au naturel it gives your external
genitals a chance to dry and reduces the growth of bacteria that can cause a
UTI. Overnight is the best time to
go pantie-free but proceed with caution because it might look like an
invitation.
Make time to be good to you and do some spring cleaning. Just looking at clutter can elevate a
woman’s stress hormones and create anxiety. So throw out all those white shirts
with underarm stains, clear off your desk and trash those magazines and
catalogs you’re never going to read.
Happy Mother’s Day, Happy Spring and Good Health!
