Whether to use butter or oil to cook with. Drinking hot water or cold water. When's the best time to drink water. Don't drink after meals dont drink before meals. blah. blah. blah
???? I can't process it!
it's the same with beauty care. like looking after your skin and hair and everything. Theres just way too much information to listen and process.
oh and preventing diseases. way to much information on what foods prevent disease and encourage it!!!!
Does anyone else feel like this!!!!???? I'm just so confused and in the end I just end up doing it all wrong and ignoring all the advice!
Is there a book or website which just tells you straight facts of what you have to do to be healthy and to look after your hair/skin etc!!!Anyone else OVERWHELMED by all the different advice about staying healthy!?
Unfortunately Not... All the information that is shoved down our throats is either miss-directed information or is there to get us to buy something.
The best areas for health issues are those that are none profit making, either medical or government supported agencies.
The other factor is down to the human body; each of us is different so what works for one person will not necessarily work for someone else.
When it comes down to it the cosmetic industry have the monopoly on confusion. Which they rely on to sell their products.
A dermatologist (Hospital) is the only person who can best advise you on the best skin care. He has no axe to grind, just sound medical advice.
Try these sites for straight forward advice:

One thing to remember is that if you eat healthly your skin will follow suit as will your hair.
I know exaclty how you feel I used to get the same questions day after day.Anyone else OVERWHELMED by all the different advice about staying healthy!?
Yes - and its all rubbish. We have all heard of health gurus who have died young and smoking drinking folk who wouldn't touch a carrot and have lived to ripe old age.
Best advice - do what you want to do AND enjoy every moment of it. If you like drinking 3 litres of water - do it, if you prefer a bottle of wine do it.
And always remember the beauty industry is big business - they will tell you a ginseng and plum facial cream will make you look younger because it makes sales. Soap and water is just as good.
Here is pretty much the simple process of losing weight.. Eat healthy, drink water ( water is water warm or cold!) and exercise.... None of the rest of it really matters! Good luck!
I can't speak to beauty care.
But, you're right, many books about health and wellness have an obvious bias, and many of them are filled with apocryphal testimonials about various health regimens and worthless nostrums.
This much you should know. Keep your weight under control. Exercise. Avoid excess saturated fats. Pay attention to the revised food pyramid. Get enough fiber in your diet. Find a good doctor and dentist, and go for periodic check-ups. Don't smoke. Practice safe sex, preferably with a faithful spouse. Consider a yearly flu shot.
I may have omitted a few things, but most of the rest is window dressing.
I read everything I can, but only pay attention if it makes sense to me. If I think it will help me and I can do it, I try it. but, yeah, eat a well balanced diet with proper portions, drink plenty of water, and get at least 30 minutes exercise every day.
thats coz warm water has its advantages...cold has its pros..warm same thing...
drinkin water before meal so u dont eat much...after meal to aid in digestion...u dont just read wht is healthy...u shd read Why is it healthy n then ull know why u hear different advises...

Science and medical information changes on a daily basis and it does make trying to get information confusing.
Basic tips:
Eat more fruits and vegetables and drink water
Don't smoke/drink in moderation
Wear sunscreen
Get a yearly psychical
Go to the dentist at least 2 a year
Try to get 30 minutes of exercise a day
Try to stay within your weight limit
You can also check www.webmd.com for other basic tips. Good luck remember you only live once so try and have some fun.
yes there is so much research being done,they are always changing their tune.
as people have said before,the only things that seems to stay consistant are -excercise
drink plenty water,get enough sleep
eat your fruit and veg.
It would be impossible to do everything they say,I used to bother about it all,I dont now.
these things are fads healthy people don't have masses of secret things they do to keep themselves healthy
