Image
VITAMIN-A AND VITAMIN-D  In this article, I’m going to describe vitamins D and A, two of the fat-soluble vitamins, and some  of the very different functions that each one has.  Now, vitamins D and A, are fat-soluble vitamins. They are important in the case of vitamin A for vision. In the case of vitamin D, for calcium metabolism. But that’s not the only thing that these vitamins do. Vitamin A is also important for gene expression and differentiation that occurs within the organism during development. Vitamin D is also important for controlling gene expression and essential for a healthy immune system. As we will also see, it has some anticancer properties as well. Now, one of the things to be careful about with vitamins A and D is that because they’re fat-soluble, excessive amounts of either one of them could be harmful because they get stored in fat tissue and can be released over a long period of time.

Image
  YOGA AS AN ANTI-AGING AGENT. DOES IT REALLY WORKS? There is a lot of talks nowadays about the anti-aging benefits of yoga, especially as our culture becomes more focused on health and wellness, and ways to look younger. I personally have practiced yoga for the last 8 years and it’s become a huge part of my life, especially for anti-aging. I believe that this has helped me with anti-aging and I would have to say yoga is definitely one of the contributing factors in this. Yoga helps to moves energy around the body and make the body feel more alive and energized. It also helps to fight depression and stabilize emotions, increase oxygen intake through our breathing, and therefore, our mind is calmer. Cortisol and stress levels are also reduced when practicing yoga, which helps your body to maintain less body fat and improve blood circulation to all our body parts adding to that glowing skin factor, which contributes to anti-aging. I believe in the saying ‘if you don’t use it, you los...
