Soleo Organics Sunscreen Rated Number 1 by EWG

Posted by admin | Natural Sunscreen | Thursday 4 February 2010 3:21 pm
It’s no surprise that Soleo Organics Sunscreen has once again been rated the safest most effective sunscreen by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), and awarded the 2009 Product Merit Award by the Nutrition Business Journal.

The Soleo Sunscreen has come a long way. In 1999, creator ‘Leo Fung’ began searching for a safe chemical free sunscreen for his mother which was being treated with skin cancer. The scorching Australian sun is not kind to one’s fragile skin.

Leo looked long and hard but failed in his quest to find a sunscreen that was natural and organic in the market. He decided if he can’t find one, with his expertise and knowledge in naturopathy, he can surely develop his own natural organic sunscreen. Along with the help of Distributing Company ‘Skin Elements’, Soleo Organics finally saw the light of day in the  Australian market in 2003.

Why Am I Always So Sleepy?

Posted by admin | Skin Care Tips & Secrets | Tuesday 26 January 2010 5:23 pm
Why Am I Always So Sleepy?

You’re healthy, you average 8 - 10 hours sleep, life is not stressful, work is not hectic, you exercise, you eat healthy, you go to sleep early, you are not sick, you take multi-vitamins, you don’t drink coffee, you have a suitable bed and pillow, blood iron levels are normal, you’re not on medication, you don’t party late, and you’re not pregnant, but you still feel sleepy and lethargic all the time.

If that’s the case, then you better go see a doctor (eastern and western) and get yourself checked out immediately. You may be suffering from an undiagnosed medical illness that needs to be addressed such as a thyroid issue, a sleeping problem or blood sugar problem.

If you’ve had medical tests done and there are no underlying medical issues dragging you down, then you may be suffering from a very common lifestyle condition called the “lazy bone syndrome”.
