My poor hair… was subjected to cheap drug store hairdryers for years. I never knew that a hair tool such as a hairdryer made a world of difference in my look.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There are 3 groups of hairdryers to consider:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Low End hairdryers - Price Range ($10-$50.00)</div>
<div>
Mid Range Hairdryers (Semi-Pro/Pro) - Price Range ($50-150.00)</div>
<div>
High End - Price Range $150 plus </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The basic Classic Hair Dryer - blasts heat from heat plates. Non protective but gets the job done in a longer period of time.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
NOW.. we have new technologies on the market. </div>

Beauty Engineers developed new technologies to help protect, provide shine (sealing the hair follicle) and boost drying times. Those are the fancy words you see that confuses most non-beauty educated consumers.</div>

Let's break it down:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Ceramic Technology: (Information Courtesy of www.modernsalon.com)</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div class="xmsonospacing" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 27px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
What is it? Ceramic is a composite material usually made of clay. It can be used in the body of a dryer, the heating element, or as a coating on internal parts. It creates a far infrared heat that penetrates the hair shaft, preserving hair's natural moisture and luster.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 27px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Good for the client and stylist? The benefit of ceramic is that it heats up quickly and evenly across its surface.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 27px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b style="font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6;">Ionic Technology </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 27px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 27px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6;">What is it? Ions refer to any particle with a negative or positive charge. Negative ions interact with wet hair by breaking up the water molecules, allowing the smaller droplets to penetrate the outer layer of the hair shaft. Ionic technology takes a natural occurring phenomenon when hair is wet and breaks up the water molecules, allowing the smaller droplets to penetrate the outer layer of the hair shaft.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 27px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Good for the client and stylist? Ionic technology reduces the hair's surface tension, leaving locks shiny and frizz-free.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 27px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b>TOURMALINE Technology</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 27px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
What is it? Tourmaline is a semi-precious mineral which generates only negative ions when heated. <em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: 17px; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">While some of the best ionic dryers are made with tourmaline, they are not all equally effective</em>. Internal parts of dryers may be molded of tourmaline, or some parts may just be coated with a mineral compound. Because tourmaline is a rare gemstone, the price of these hair dryers can get quite steep, depending on the quantity and the way it is incorporated into the dryer.</div>
<div class="xmsonospacing" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 27px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Tourmaline crystals have been crushed into a fine powder and transferred to the major components of the appliance. The tourmaline technology maximizes the negative ion output and closes the cuticle layer, creating smooth hair.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 27px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Good for the client and stylist? A Tourmaline blow dryer has been found to blow dry up to 40 percent more quickly than its non-tourmaline cousin. The speedy and productive results are good for the client and the stylist.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', helvetica, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 27px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">

The different heat levels should be adjusted to suit your hair texture and condition, according to Perez. He explains, "<strong style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The high heat is available for really thick or coarse hair</strong>, and to remove excessive moisture when the hair is really wet, but always remember to keep the dryer moving and never focus on one portion of the hair for too long. <strong style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The low setting is perfect for thin or fragile hair</strong>. If your hair is only damp instead of wet, it is important to use the low heat setting to prevent over-drying."</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia, Century, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility; vertical-align: baseline;">
As far as <strong style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">that mysterious "cool shot" button, it seals the hair cuticle</strong>, setting the final look for long-lasting hold and adds shine. Perez adds, "When your hair is about 80 percent dry, switch over to the cool shot. All your hair needs at this stage in drying is the finishing touches, and the cool shot adequately completes the drying and protects against overheating."</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia, Century, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility; vertical-align: baseline;">
Richman believes the "cool shot" is also great to lock in a curl, or if you set your hair in curlers, it works to cool down your hair and lock in the waves as desired.</div>

Look for a dryer with an ionic generator, enhanced with tourmaline and ceramic elements that deliver infrared heat. This combination will deliver the smoothest, frizz free results while preventing over drying or moisture loss. Additionally, a dryer with a nozzle attachment will let your focus the air output as you straighten with a brush and prepare your hair for a flat iron.</div>

I found thick creamy heat protectant lotions are wonderful for Thick hair.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I found the whole hairdryer selection completely overwhelming but after I researched and understood what to look for and the type of dryer I needed to help my thick, coarse, semi hormone curl hair…<br />
<br />
I went with the RUSK W8Less and couldn't be happier. We travel and the light weight design packs a powerful punch. My next splurge would be a T3 or a SEDU Revolution Ionic and Tourmaline.<br />
<br />
Let me know your thoughts!!! I want to hear what you love and hate!!!! <br />

<br />
Do you have a staple "GO to" piece that you stock up in in every color?<br />
<br />
I am one of those who finds a shirt that I loved and I will go back and buy in almost every color. Or I would find a pair of amazing ballet flats and buy in every shade of leather. <br />
<br />
Being a self conscious mom of 3… I find myself in comfort classy clothes most days.<br />
<br />
Long sweaters with leggings or Yoga pants with stylish LuluLemon sweatshirts or workout wear. <br />
<br />
A few years ago … I would stock up on pricey White House Black Market leggings. Over the past few years, the classic leggings have become more constrictive or tighter fit. I understand the movement of design however, the comfort has (in my opinion) fallen short. The new design is to conform to bodies that have not been through child birth or 9 months of stretch and reshapen mid sections. <br />
<br />
<br />

Women after child birth … have loose skin…. tummies that require some work. I discovered a line that is affordable and a classy form flattering design. <br />
<br />
If you have a problem tummy and need more support and shape in your mid section. The M. RENA Leggings are absolutely amazing!!!!! <br />
<br />
<br />
The material is quality and the fit is flattering on any size. The tummy shaper makes your stomach smooth and looks great under clothes.<br />

I recently purchased the M. RENA Side Diamond Sweater Leggings. I am in love with these. The top tummy tuck panel is in gray. These leggings are comfortable and warm. They can be worn with gray, black, cream or a fun pop of color. Very Cool Design.</div>

Type 3 will become the next big medical issue.DO you hear more and more stories about people developing diabetes earlier in life or children becoming Insulin Resistant and developing diabetes in their early years of life?<br />
<br />
Well, the sad news is.. our country has approximately 80 million people and researchers are finding that 1 in 4 has some form of diabetes. If you are a family of 4 …. at least one of you has a genetic component that could one day develop into diabetes. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://healthimpactnews.com/tag/type-3-diabetes/" target="_blank">Click here for statistical data on the rise of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. </a><br />
<br />
The steady rise in drug prescriptions given to adults over the age of 50 has dramatically increased. Many people are taking statins for cholestrol, various combinations of high blood pressure cocktails, daily pain medications for inflammation or arthritis. The ability to keep it all straight is alarming. <br />
<br />
One of the scariest piece of informaiton I have come across is the use of statins. They found that some statins that are used to treat elevated cholestrol have been linked to some cancers and alzheimers. <br />
<br />
People are trading one type of disease for another. It's a battle everyday. <br />
<br />
Diabetes has become one of the top 10 diseases of annual deaths world wide. Research has found that there is a new form of diabetes. TYPE 3 Diabetes or other wise known as ALZHEIMERS Disease.<br />

DO you know of someone who suffers from this disease? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had a grandmother who suffered from ALZHEIMERs. It was an awful thing to watch. She was a very intelligent talented woman and began to do silly things. She was a gifted pianist and we began to notice her forgetfulness of melodies or notes she had played time and time again. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was a preteen and I would stay with her to help on occasion. She would sometimes get dressed and forget how to dress. For example, my grandmother would put her bra on over her dress. To watch this as a child was quite funny. However, as an adult to watch another adult forget daily meaningless tasks was very heart wrenching. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Some Ecards and Your Ecard are uncovering a very big truth in a funny cynical way. The reality is people are becoming more depressed and anxious due to their daily fix of being on facebook.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
According to the Huffington Post… A series of articles have been written about the effects of facebook, a handbook on how to withdrawal from Facebook, and how facebook affects your work performance and interpersonal relationships.</div>

I have had convos with friends and family who have decided that facebook was causing mild depression, sadness and self doubt. Many decided to either get off facebook all together or limit their exposure and amount of friends who have access to their facebook profile.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b><span style="font-size: large;">You (Facebooker) are comparing your everyday lows to the highs of someone else's day. </span></b></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For example, I have a friend who is unmarried, early 40's and is longing to have a child of her own. Everytime she pulls her facebook feed up she sees pictures of friend's newborn babies propped up on their tiny little arms fast a sleep. She sees the parents (her age) looking lovingly at their little bundle of joy. She begins to wonder "WILL it EVER HAPPEN FOR ME."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We are all human and it is easy to compare our lives. In addition, people have a tendency to focus on what we don't have versuses what we do have. </div>

FACEBOOK is actually causing DEPRESSION. Medical experts are treating and defining this condition as FACEBOOK DEPRESSION.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">CURES TO FACEBOOK DEPRESSION</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. <b><span style="font-size: large;"><i><u>QUIT FACEBOOK</u></i></span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Keep a journal to help you focus on what's important and positive in your life. They say actually writing down goals and putting them on paper makes them more tangible. In addition, daily affirmations help anyone who is going through a bought of depression or anxiety.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. Don't put too much into Facebook. LIMIT your time and the amount of feed or posts your read. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(I love facebook however, I limit my amount of feed and how many posts I read.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4. BLOCK posts from users that create feelings of doubt or depression. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(I know there is a lot of debate on "TO BLOCK, UNFRIEND or TO TOLERATE".. why tolerate abuse if you don't have to … or why bang your head against a wall if you have a headache… just end the pain and once you have a handle on what is bothering you… then decide if it's worth the request of online social friendship.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
5. Remember … facebook is a wonderful way to reach out to old friends.. how about actually using facebook as an opportunity to make connections and arrange opportunities to get together with old friends or new ones. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
6. DON'T post anything.. posting pics or status causes undue stress .. you are waiting or logging on to see who likes.. who didn't like… who needs all that pressure. JUST don't do it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
7. DON'T take facebook too seriously… life is not a popularity contest… manifest real relationships and enjoy what you have. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

CATBIRD jewelry is AMAZING!!Remember the trend that came upon us in the 80's where your small town high school girl headed to the local CLAIRE's to get multiple piercings in each ear. I remember thinking how cool I was having 3 piercings in one and 2 in the other. I stocked up on studs and small hoops. <br />

Jennifer Fisher is a brillant jewelry designer and has mastered the art of jewelry making. She has designed the coolest earrings and necklaces for famous celebrities and socialites. I would kill to have the earrings she creates at a fraction of the cost. I decided to seek out her stick chain earring design and had found a very simple pair similar to the Jennifer Fisher style at the LIMITED. I have sought all over the internet for the same length, gold plated and similar chain style to the ones I had … but no such luck. </div>

In order to rock my one stick chain earring … I decided pairing it with fun little nuggets and gold studs. </div>

Check out the sheen, the straight thick manageable locks that lay beautifully next to my melon. Can you believe I used to complain about how hard it was to take care of... or that I just wanted a cute short bob like the lead singer of Wilson Phillips back in the 80's. I pictured myself looking like BOZ from Some Kind of Wonderful .... short messy and multicolored. (Insert Child of the 80's) I laugh about it now... but .. WOW.. how I wish I could turn back time and slap myself in the face and say.....<br />

Weird random curl, fuzzy strands, breakage, dry brittle hair. It is amazing how hormones just reck havoc on hair, body and skin. <br />
<br />
I had seen all these late night infomercials about Chaz Dean and his Wen Products. I saw before and after results and I was desperate to try something to restore my old lifeless hair. <br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
NOW.... It took me a weeks worth of using to get used to the NON-Lathering of this shampoo. IT cleans despite clear evidence of a sudsy lather. TRY it for a week and you will notice how WONDERFUL this product actually is.</div>

What a wonderful article that details such a fabulous store in Morton and Peoria Heights!<br />
I had the priviledge of learning how to use Annie Sloan Chalk Paint from Cindy Davis (owner of Second Betty). She has two locations and offers various workshops and classes to learn how to use this paint. <br />
<br />
In recent posts, I have posted my experiences with using Annie Sloan Chalk Paint. The paint can be applied to a number of surfaces and can be used to create numerous types of finishes. <br />
<br />
It is a great time to stop in and learn how to use this paint due to the influx of garage sales and the start of Second Sunday in Bloomington/Normal. You can find some great wood pieces and create a completely new piece of furniture with this paint. Check her store out and ALSO check out their featured article in Arts & Society (<a href="http://www.peoriamagazines.com/as/2014/may-jun/save-it-rainy-day" target="_blank">Second Betty's Cover Story in May - June edition</a>). <br />

Have interesting ideas, topics to discuss, and great experiences? Do you think your voice won't be heard or there will be no interest? THINK again! <br />
<br />
I started this blog about 2 years ago and my goal was to share my ideas and experiences on products related to motherhood and to help new parents on their journey. I always said that I needed a manuel from those experienced moms who knew how to navigate through the ups and downs of parenting. <br />
<br />
2 Years later.... and some interesting stats on viewership and emails from individuals all around the world .. led me to believe my voice does matter. This blog was recently featured in the InterBusiness Issues Magazine (<a href="http://www.peoriamagazines.com/ibi/about" target="_blank">IBI Magazine Publication</a>). The RHoTC blog had a featured article from February in the April's edition of IBI. <br />
<br />
Check it out: <a href="http://therealhousewifeoftazewellcounty.blogspot.com/2014/02/5-healthy-alternatives-to-everyday.html" target="_blank">http://therealhousewifeoftazewellcounty.blogspot.com/2014/02/5-healthy-alternatives-to-everyday.html</a><br />
<br />
I was sooo excited to see that what I had written was noteworthy and published in a very prominent magazine in Central Illinois. <br />
<br />
SOOO with that being said... I encourage you to take the leap of faith and create a blog!!! I love it and would love to hear from you!!!! Post your blog here and I will do my best to promote and create a platform to be heard!!! <br />

A list Of Everyday Hygiene Products and Ingredients to Consider When Purchasing.Have you ever took a shower and looked at the ingredients on the back of your shampoo, conditioner or body wash bottles? Do you know what these ingredients are or where they are derived from:<br />
<br />
Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Tetrasodium EDTA, Methylisothiazolinone, Etidronic Acid<br />
<br />
or how about...<br />
<br />
Cyclopentasiloxane, stearyl alcohol, phenyl trimethicone, or cyclodextrin<br />
<br />

Which I found these ingredients on the back of my Secret PH balanced Antiperspirant/deodorant. <br />
<br />
What about the very vague ingredients list on the back of your everyday Crest 3D White toothpaste tube ... which lists ONLY the active ingredient (Sodium Fluoride 0.243%). What makes up the other 99% NON-Active ingredients?<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Consumers are becoming more aware of the dangerous chemicals and GMO's that are being injected into our everyday foods and are opting for more organic produce, less preservatives, and more hormone free meats and dairy products. BUT... are they considering what dangerous chemicals they are putting on their skin, teeth, hair, and/or nails? I think not!! <br />
<br />
Proctor and Gamble which is a key player in producing America's favorite hygiene products has showed no sign of loss when evaluating their stock recently. At $80.79 per share with a Share Volume of over 13,000,000 .. people are buying chemically enhanced toothpaste, shampoos, conditioner and deodorant. <br />

<b>There are a list of harmful ingredients in Deodorant that you should consider when purchasing.</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Look at labels and avoid the following ingredients in your deodorant:</b><br />
<b> </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>***Avoid Aluminum</i> - it has been linked to some cancers and early stages of Alzheimer's Disease</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>***Avoid Parabens</i> - Parabens have been linked to BIRTH DEFECTS and ORGAN TOXICITY in CHILDREN. In addition Parabens have been linked to EARLY Puberty in Children and Hormonal Cancers. </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Avoid Propylene Glycol </i>- This makes the deodorant slick or petroleum like consistency. It has been linked to damage in Central nervous system, liver and heart.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Avoid Phthalates -</i> Using this chemical during pregnancy has caused birth defects.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Avoid Triclosan - </i>It helps kills odor caused by the body and it has been labeled by the FDA as a pesticide and the EPA listed it as a probable carcinogen. You will find Triclosan in many soaps, hand wipes and gels. </b></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>When purchasing Toothpaste please consider avoiding these ingredients listed:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Avoid Sodium Fluoride </i>- According to many studies .. it is the same ingredient in Rat Poisoning. Minimal Ingestion of Sodium Fluoride would cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and gastric pain. Larger doses of sodium fluoride ingested will cause paralysis, respiratory and cardiac failure. </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Avoid FD &C Blue Dyes 1 & 2 </i>- the dyes that tint the toothpaste blue have been linked to asthma, headaches, nausea, behavioral changes, anxiety and some cancer. </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Avoid Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)</i> - it is the agent that causes the bubbling or foaming when scrubbing. <i><u>IT is has been found in many mascaras and several top names acne medicines. THIS AGENT IS ALSO FOUND IN "NO More TEARS" Soap for Children. </u></i> It can cause problems with eye development, hair growth issues, and is a skin irritant. If found in eyes it can cause early cataract in adults. </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Avoid Tricolsan- IT is a pesticide and you are ingesting that in your mouth. </i>It has been found to be stored in body fat which in turn causes toxicity in your circulatory system. </b></div>

<br />
<br />
I am a mom of three and recently was diagnosed with Essential Hypertension. What does that mean.. well.. it means that I am genetically pre-disposed to hypertension, heart disease and stroke. My uncle had passed from a massive heart attack, my sister had a congential heart defect that was related to her passing, and have a family history of high blood pressure. I mostly likely had high blood pressure in my teens and 20's and did not treat this condition. The longer I left my high blood pressure untreated the greater risk I am for stroke, heart attack or major organ damage. Now, I am very serious about treatment and life style changes.<br />
<br />
First signs of understanding this condition, was when I was pregnant with my first born. I developed pre-clampsia during the mid of my pregnancy. My blood pressure increased rapidly to numbers over 150/90-100. It was very scary because it put me and the baby at risk for kidney failure, stroke or a coronary event. Hospitalized and being monitored allowed for me to see to the risk involved with high blood pressure.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-491230/Victims-pre-eclampsia-twice-likely-develop-heart-disease-later-life.html" target="_blank">Here is an article that explains PreClampsia Patients are 2x likely to have Heart Related Diseases down the road.</a><br />
<br />
If you are a mom or dad that has had a history of hypertension or preeclampsia while pregnant, I strongly urge you to check and keep track of your blood pressure and consult with a doctor. I recently took the pledge through the American Heart Association to better understand my numbers and what I need to do to prevent heart disease and future heart related problems. <br />
<br />
HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE is not just a problem that many develop later in life. It can start earlier in life and it must be managed appropriately and as soon as possible!!!<br />
<br />
For some people (like myself), diet, excerise alone is not enough to lower blood pressure. You may need to get on blood pressure lowering agents to help better control your blood pressure. <br />

With that being said... I am super excited to announce our first RHoTC Giveaway!!!! Since this month is American Heart Awareness Month - I thought that I would giveaway something heart related and get others inspired to make the commitment to get heart healthy!!<br />

We decided to give away a beautiful heart charm and $$ towards additional Origami Jewelry!!!<br />
<br />
Just a little background on Origami Owl... this jewerly company has the sweetest little back story. It is ran by a 16 year old girl who had a dream of running her own business and creating a multimillion dollar mark on the jewerly industry. I love her fierce fiery drive and ambition!! I strongly encourage young women to pursue their dreams and create an amazing product that the rest of us can enjoy!!!<br />

Ok... so now that I have given you everything for my health history. I also want to make a note that the doctors I had visited are wonderful and are some of the best doctors in the area. In addition, I went to Mayo Clinic in Rochester to further inquire about my health. It wasn't until I spoke with my OBGYN .. I realized that the way I am feeling is all very normal and falls in line with women in their 30's who are starting to have hormonal changes. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
When your body stops producing babies.. it goes through some major changes that results in Perimenopause. Which by definition is the "BEFORE" stages of Meniopause (Or also known as the "CHANGE")</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If any of this sounds like you..... please please don't go into denial!!! That was me.... accept and do something to help yourself. Go to your OBGYN and explain what you feel like and ask for hormone testing. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
NOW.. there is some great debate about HORMONES.. and whether they work or cause more problems. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
ALL I know is there are some great reads out there that will help put everything in perspective. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I began a very holistic approach to combating these awful symptoms...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For ONE... I needed to control my High Blood Pressure and Have a goal of getting off meds completely...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My blood Pressure ran....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
150-160/90-105</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was on Lisinopril 20mg per day and No significant changes while taking and on old diet.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I began a very strict GLUTEN Free, Vegan Based (Oil Free, No Meat, No Dairy) Diet.... my Blood Pressures dropped to an average of</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
104-123/69-82</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I switched to a CCB at 30mg per day and have gradually began weaning off..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have increased my supplement intake to CoQ10, Increase in Vitamin C, B's, Fish Oil, Arginine, Neuro 5-Htp, L-theanine for the days of unrest and anxiety, Increase in Folate and Vitamin D - many of which I get from my Vegan (Veggie enriched Diet)... Gluten Free helps with itchy skin and digestive issues, feeling bloated and overrall inflammation. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ONCE I elminated Dairy and Gluten from my diet ... I noticed my clothes were less tight, my skin is clearing up, feeling bloated and overrall sluggish began to lessen. My brain fog seems to come and go but I learned it is due to my depleting estrogen levels. Something which I am learning how to combat naturally ... ANY SUGGESTIONS???</div>

I have learned all it takes is simple changes in everyday foods. (Stay tuned to my personal story and how cleaner eating has changed my life)<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a list of 5 Things you can do to add additional nutrients to you and your child's diet</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">1. SWITCH to ORGANIC SALTED OR UNSALTED BUTTER</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Organic Butter is free from hormones and chemicals. Regular Butter stores much of the chemicals that animal was exposed to. Organic Butter has nutrients rich in Vitamin A, E & K which are vital for Adrenal and Thyroid Function. Organic Butter contains Linoleic Acid vital for bone growth, immunity and good bacteria.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">2. Replace Table Salt with Unrefined Sea Salt</span></b></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Table Salt is bleached, refined and stripped of all nutrients.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sea Salt has Alkaline agents for cancer prevention, helps with asthma, eczema, healthier for the heart in moderation, and builds immunity</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Replace All Wheat Enriched Breads, Pastas and Cereals with Certified Gluten Free Products. (SO readily available and at many Grocery Stores).

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There are so many reasons to go Gluten Free. There are so many resources out there that explains why you should go gluten free. A great read is the Yeast Connection Book.</div>

The first thing they tell cancer patients is to eliminate sugar. Cancer feeds off of sugars. Begin to switch to healthier alternatives to help with immunity. Molasses has Vitamin B 6 and has 20% of Iron. Raw Cane Sugar has calcium, magnesium and riboflavin. Use Molasses to help with kidney function, helps reduce fevers and boost protein levels.</div>
