Take Care Of Skin And Hair

A day spent in the hot sun can cause some real damage to your hair and your skin; extended exposure can cause flaky skin and split ends in hair. Omega-3 fatty acids can keep both skin and hair hydrated.

Try The One Plate Rule

When buffet breakfasts and barbecue dinners are the order of the day, you can get carried away by casual conversations and eat too much without realizing it. The one plate rule is simple: you eat as much as you can fit on a single plate.

It’s not a hard-and-fast rule, but it helps you stay aware and avoid overeating without meaning to.
