Dr. Oz, Bananas, Yogurt, and Honey Mask for Skin? Goupless Alternatives for Healthy Skin
As for me, I prefer to use ‘goopless’ skin products that are professionally formulated and keep my Banana, Yogurt, and Honey blend for a healthy snack instead of slathering it over my face for fifteen minutes. But then again…
Dr. Oz whipped up the bowl of plain yogurt, added too little honey, and tried to mash those bananas into the yogurt for a suitable spread. He could have used a blender or at least a Silver Bullet to make a more even mask. In order to release the nutrients and valuable components of these foods to nourish and moisturize the skin, you have to mash them better at home than the quick job he did in the studio on the set.
Sure this mixture works…and the nutritive ingredients are common in many professional products that have been formulated to accomplish the same result naturally for your healthy skin.
Personally, I would choose to scoop the banana blend right into my mouth with some lovely fresh organic strawberries and blueberries. The nutrients will be used by the body for the skin from within…
We have used professional natural skin care products for decades and you can trust that the skin will be nourished, replenished, and moisturized very nicely with regular use. You can do both! Many Spas and Resorts will offer the choice of food for your face, including avocado, cucumber, and a number of other great foods that nourish the skin.
If you want to further nourish and rejuvenate your skin from within, our most potent product is Pearl Powder.
When the topics of Cholesterol and the Colon were discussed by Dr. Oz, we noticed that there were very few ideas given for bringing back Balance using healthy products. Aloe Gel will soothe the Large Intestine and the transition to a healthy dietary regimen with whole grains, sea vegetables, and the vast array of organic whole foods will repair damage done to the Colon.
LifeSciences makes a fabulous pro-biotic formula called Nature’s Biotics which I have seen change the conditions in the Colon reversing signs of cancer, polyps, parasites, inflammation, and mucous. We know that Viva-Natural and other sea vegetables like wakame, kombu, and hiziki also improve the conditions in the Colon.
Our favorite alternative is a weekly serving of a fruit juice pudding with Kudzu Root powder slurry to thicken the juice. You can also make a savory gravy with vegetable broth using the Kudzu Root powder. This pudding and/or gravy is particularly soothing when you have had diarrhea or irritation in the bowels.
Fatty Metabolism is a huge topic. A Whole Foods program is at the heart of the matter and will turn it around. Onion, citrus like lemon, miso soup, dark leafy greens, root vegetables, beets, whole grains like brown rice, beans, and spices like cinnamon, cumin, and turmeric contribute to the natural mechanisms that will change the Cholesterol balance in the blood.
If you need to build blood, then that’s another story for another day. However, the suggestion of a daily vegetable soup FROM SCRATCH for the seven sisters is one way to ensure that the vegetables and herbs are in one’s daily diet. Root vegetables, celery, carrots, onions, green herbs like parsley, thyme, oregano, garlic cloves, leeks, potatoes, and other vegetables that are in season make a delicious broth and hearty soup that both satisfies and supplies nutrients for building blood and losing excess weight.
