Why you should eat citrus regularly

From legendary antioxidant properties to fresh breath, citrus fruits have a variety of flavors and health benefits.  

Here are a few of the benefits of eating citrus fruits!

Oranges:  Oranges are packed with vitamin C, the detox vitamin, and flavanoids which remove free radicals and help reduce the risk of developing heart disease.

Grapefruit:  Grapefruit lowers cholesterol, helps lose excess weight, and helps prevent certain types of cancer.

Mandarins:  Hesperidin, a flavanoid present in mandarin oranges, works together with vitamin C to produce collagen making it a valuable snack for the beauty conscious.

Limes:  Lime juice can be used to help become more alkaline.  Limes have more vitamin C then lemons and are also helpful with constipation.  Limes are good for the skin and can be used as a natural deodorant.

Pomelos:  Pomelos help with digestion, fight cancer, and are potassium rich which also contributes to heart health.

Lemons:  Lemons detox your body, help prevent viral infections, and can help the body increase healthy LDL cholesterol.  Drinking water with lemon helps to balance out the body's PH.

Deodorant contains dangerous ingredients: MAKE YOUR OWN

Your favorite deodorant might contain dangerous ingredients that can cause cancer, brain damage, and even liver abnormalities. 

Just a couple simple ingredients is all you need for your All-Natural Deodorant:

1/4 Cup of Baking Soda (neutralizes odor)
 1/4 Cup of Arrowroot starch (absorbs moisture)
 4 Tb Coconut Oil (anti-bacterial and moisturizing) 1/4 tsp Tea Tree Oil (anti-bacterial)

Mix all ingredients together to form a paste/cream... and that's it!

WHY SHOULD YOU MAKE YOUR OWN OR NOT USE ANY?

3 of the worst deodorant ingredients are:

Parabens: (On the label* methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben or isobutylparaben) These are used in many skin care and cosmetic products. They act as a preservative to discourage bacteria and fungus. Research shows that parabens from lotions and deodorants can absorb into the body and weakly mimic estrogen causing damage to the endocrine system.
Aluminum: One of the main ingredients in many deodorants and antiperspirants is aluminum, which actually blocks the body from producing sweat. Aluminum has been known to cause neurological damage and contribute to diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Aluminum has been found to be able to enter and remain in a human bloodstream for up to two weeks after just one application of deodorant or antiperspirant.
Propelene Glycol:  is often used in deodorants and is also an ingredient in antifreeze. Factory workers who are exposed are warned of the danger of kidney, brain, and liver damage through skin contact.
