HEALTHY LIVING TIPS

Sun Protection - While enjoying the sun and outdoors, protect yourself from overexposure to sunlight by wearing a hat and using natural sunscreens without excessive chemicals. Carry Aloe Vera gel for overexposure and have an aloe plant growing in your home for any kind of burn. The cooling and healing gel inside the leaves will soothe any sunburn.

Opt for Herbs - Fill a windowsill with herbs to brighten up your kitchen, meals and taste buds. A sprinkling of that amazing superfood, parsley, might even delay the onset of breast cancer, according to a study conducted last year.
