Gotta Love Going Green, Feeling Better & Looking Younger!

Tuesday, 31 August 2010 07:48 by NaturesKnockout

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if a “fountain of youth” really existed? Well maybe it does. In fact, many people are looking and feeling younger than they have in years, just by making changes they may have never dreamed of before.




Did you know that “going green” could be the best anti-aging regime you could invest in? Most traditional skin, hair, and personal care products are loaded with suspected toxic ingredients that have been linked to everything from weight gain, nausea, dizziness, eczema, to headaches and more, but are also believed to act as endocrine disruptors, neurotoxins and even carcinogens.

Not only that, but many of the anti-aging creams people slather on their skin every day have powerful active ingredients that pull those toxins deeper into the tissue, which can cause much more damage.

But don’t panic, there’s a simple solution: buy organic!

That’s right. Organic products not only eliminate those dangerous ingredients, they also naturally add at least 40% more antioxidants to formulations. If you want to look younger, adding more antioxidants is the place to start, as they will work internally and externally to repair damage to the cells, which can otherwise cause you to age faster.

The same goes for the foods you eat. When you eat chemicals, your body is bound to experience side effects. Just read a label on a can of pesticide. Do the warnings sound yummy? Hardly.




Next time you hope for the fountain of youth, just remember, it’s closer than you think. It’s about eliminating the toxins and increasing the nutrients, inside and out! That’s it! Going green makes sense.

Brought to you by Laurie & Tiffany of Nature’s Knockout, a mother/daughter, celebrity make-up & hair team, passionate about empowering others to go green. At age 23, Tiffany was diagnosed with a crippling autoimmune disease, which led them to intense research to find answers. Through it, they realized the power of living green. Encouraged by amazing results, and overwhelmed by the epidemic of autoimmune disease, diabetes and cancer, they had to get the word out, and thus, Nature’s Knockout was launched. A passion with a purpose. http://www.naturesknockout.com/
