Take it easy with the diet

During your diet don't choose for the crash version. Such a diet only makes you tired and it is also very damaging to the quality of your breast. So take a look in advance how many calories you daily burn. Do you have mostly a sedentary job? Then your calorie consumption must lie around 1800 calories daily.

Try to respect always your minimum amount of sleep, because the more tired you are, the more you will feel an urge to have a snack.

Massage without essential oils

Choose a massage to get your muscles back into shape, and certainly do not use essential oils. These are an absolute disaster while you are breastfeeding.

We need five daily servings of fruits and vegetables, but often we don't reach it. Moreover, it seems that our familiar fruits and vegetables contain less beneficial nutrients than exotic varieties.

During the study the researchers looked at the fytonutrient content. This is important for the health of our eyes, bones, heart, brain and the immune system. These substances help to reduce the chances of a heart attack or stroke significantly. The test results show that, for example carrots include half of beta-carotene compared to sweet potatoes, papaya contains 15 times more beta-croptoxanthine than an orange so these two exotic fruits and vegetables protect much better against the flu.

Fur From Rats The New Trend?

More and more designers refuse the use the old fur. Besides the familiar faux, fur from rats seem increasingly popular.

The coypu was already very popular in the mid 70s, but gave way to the fur of minks. Thus, the population of coypus is getting bigger which in turn led to a destruction of the surrounding vegetation. In 2010 this might change, however, thanks to the resurgence of the possum's skin. Designers such as Billy Reid and Oscar de la Renta go fully for the skins of possums.

Animal rights activists call to ensure this trend quickly disappears. According to them, no animals are to be skinned for a coat, even though there is an overpopulation of the species concerned.
