I could probably go on about this subject for hours, but who wants to hear my rants and personal story? Probably none of you. All I can say is that some of this was a big surprise, some of it not.

I was surprised at some of the numbers  like only 10-15% of women have never experience an orgasm- I would’ve guessed 25%. 90% of women say their orgasm is psychological more then physical - not surprised at that!  67% of women have faked orgasm’s! Are well all guilty of this?

Anyway, read more, add your input, thoughts… and even personal stories!PS is there even such thing as a g-spot?

I have a lot of hair, but my hair has been falling off  a lot lately. I’m not a fan of hair products, so I decided to do some research and take care of it on my own. I found the cause of hair loss and a few simple steps you can try from your own home!

These are the most common causes for hair loss: Stress, hormonal changes, hair products, poor diet, medicine,  & genes.

Facts:

-It’s normal to lose around 50 to 100 hairs per day.

-No product will make your hair grow or make it thicker.

-Hair loss begins around the ages of 12 to 40.

-Normal haircare doesn’t affect hair loss.

DO’s:

Rub Olive, Almond & Coconut oils into scalp. Repeat 3 times a week.

So Jennifer Love Hewitt started this craze with “vajazzling”, and now every company and spa is trying to get on it! So now you can dye your pubes pink, and vajazzle them all at the same time. For what purpose? I have no idea..but their are people who will get on it. What do you think?

Bryce Gruber of The Luxury Spot, www.theluxuryspot.com a widely read online lifestyle site, became the first member of the media to experience the latest in personal grooming, Vajazzling.

She was sent by Spa Week Daily, www.spaweekdaily.com, to cover one of the treatments that’ll be offered during Spa Week Spring 2010, April 12-18, when spa treatments are just $50 a piece at participating spas across the country. Gruber headed to Completely Bare on Bond Street (www.completelybare.com) to try their newest service, Vajazzling, which is the bedazzling of the area which gets waxed when getting a bikini wax (or more) by adding crystals and beads to the nether regions.

A play on bedazzling and a part of the female body, Vajazzling is the adornment of crystals and beads to the bikini area after waxing According to the Completely Bare website, “Accessorizing your privates is the hottest rage. From crystal flowers to customized favorites, you too can now decorate your own jewels. Whether it’s a special occasion or you just want to sparkle everywhere, you can choose from an assortment of real Swarovski crystal designs so you can shimmer and shine.”

Gruber stated: “I’m here to cover up my C section scar. I’m here to give the women of America options.”

Somewhere between summer ending and fall/winter beginning, and there on, I get deathly ill. For days and sometimes weeks at a time I am bed ridden, crawling on my hands and knees to get from the bed to the bathroom. It’s my own fault - I don’t keep myself in immune fighting mode. We all do things that make our immune systems weak. We drink alcohol, wear ourselves out with stress, and have poor diets.

What we eat plays a huge role in fighting off germs. The simple solution? Eat well. I’ve listed eight power foods to help you beat the bug.

1. Oranges!
Also known as the staple to any breakfast, one orange provides more than 100 percent of the daily value for vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that helps to strengthen the immune system. Vitamin C helps boost immunity by stimulating growth of antibodies that fight off infections. It is a part of the chemical reactions that allow our bodies to synthesize proteins needed for antibodies. It also acts as an antihistamine by lowering blood levels of the histamines released by the immune system that make stuffiness and congestion worse. SO the more vitamin C the better!

2. Blueberries
The powerhouse of antioxidants - blueberries get the most votes as the immunity food. These little guys are a good source of vitamins C and E and when these two work together they produce the greatest antioxidant effects. C works as the water soluble antioxidant and E works as the fat soluble.

As much as I would like to think that after being out of high school for so long that pimples don’t exist, they do. Every now and then I’ll get some bugger who puts a damper on my day. I know that we could go back and forth on whether or not the food we eat affects our skin in some way, and if you don’t think so I want to know what you’re eating!

Here are five healthy foods to help keep your skin free from drama!

1. Whole grains. When it comes to fighting acne-causing inflammation, fiber-packed whole grains work like a charm. They carry a lot of antioxidants and stabilize blood sugar and prevent insulin spikes. Make sure you check nutrition info to be sure it is high in fiber and low in sugar. Sometimes sneaky lingo on a loaf of bread can trick you into thinking you’ve got the right stuff.

2. Fish Yes, it is the source of omega-3 fatty acids but fish are loaded with anti-inflammatory eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The best fish for blemish free skin? Mackerel, salmon (!!!), and anchovies.

So after a TERRIBLE mistake of cutting my bangs the other day, I basically look like  the guy from Dumb and Dumber. So, as a solution to my problem I’ve been doing about 3 days of research on how to grow them back. I know many of us have done this, whether it be our hairdresser cutting too much off when all you wanted was a 1 inch cut, or getting a terrible hair style. So while on the hunt, I found some great ways of growing your hair back. Growing your hair longer really is an internal thing, not something a shampoo or hair product can fix.

1) The obvious one, cut your hair every 4-6 weeks for it to grow, dead hair does not grow!

2) Brushing your hair daily. I learned this recently, it’s a bad idea to brush/comb your hair when it’s wet, it causes split ends. Circulation of the scalp enhances your hair to grow more.

3) Vitamins: Most woman’s vitamins have everything you need for healthy hair such as vitamin B complex, vitamin A E & C. The one that is really good for your hair is Biotin. Good food sources of biotin include  brown rice, bulgur, green peas, lentils, oats, soybeans, sunflower seeds, and walnuts. You can go to a GNC or any drug store and get biotin, or get a hair-nourishing vitamin like this one.Read more about vitamins here.

4) Eat healthy, these are foods that promote hair growth: - Yogurt and soy, Dark green vegetable, Whole grain products, Essential fatty acid, Nut and seed, Carrots, Fruits, Eggs, Spinach, Broccoli, Fish, Beans.

5) Hair Products: Although hair products cannot usually help the growth of your hair, try not to use drug store shampoo’s/conditioners such as Pantene or Herbal Essence, all they do is add build up and add alcohol to your hair, which slows down the process of the growth. Also, I heard Olive Oil and Coconut oil is good for your hair, it will make your hair a little oily for a couple days, but once you wash it out it will add shine and make your hair healthier. Also, if you have a problem hair loss ( you should be losing approx. 100 strands of hair a day), you could use Nioxin, which is good for hair loss.

If you have any other tips, or you’ve used any of these, let me know!!

Home remedies, those ones our mothers would tell us, and we never believed. Turns out many of them actually work! Here is a list of my favorite top 10 that actually work, and I co-sign that!

1)Depuff Eyes with raw potato slices which contain potassium to take away dark circles under the eye.

2) Never get chap lips again, Every time you brush your teeth brush your lips gentley with your toothbrush.

3)Forget the expensive toners. Models carry lemons in their bags to remove residue from their face and to refresh.

4) Drink 8 to 10 glasses of water a day to get amazing glowing skin within a week.

5) Need a quick glow to your skin and all over healthier look? Bend over at the waist, as far as you can possibly go, and hold to the count of thirty.

Chow down on antioxidant- and zinc-rich oysters, dark chocolate, and blueberries for a clear complexion. Here is a top 10 list which tells you what is good for growing hair, nails, good skin, and more. Enjoy! This is something I printed out and have in my room!

BEAUTY BITES
Lisa Drayer’s Top 10 Beauty Foods

1. Wild salmon: A primo source for omega-3 fatty acids, which reduce skin inflammation, preventing redness, wrinkles, and loss of firmness. It’s also potent in antioxidants and vitamins B and D.

2. Low-fat yogurt: In one word, calcium. Good for strong bones, nails, and teeth. One cup of plain low-fat yogurt has more calcium than a glass of skim milk.

3. Oysters: The best source of zinc, period. Zinc helps build collagen, which supports the structure of skin and speeds up renewal and repair.

4. Blueberries: Full of antioxidants and anti-inflammatories that prevent long-term cell damage.

5. Kiwifruit: Another good source of antioxidants, kiwis are also a great source of vitamin C and potassium, all which help prevent wrinkles.

I honestly hate diets.. I can’t do it! I love food too much. I honestly think the key thing is exercise and fruit and veggies, then you can eat whatever you want (minus the fastfood). I found out about Gwen’s diet secret on t.v, but I figured I’d share with our readers!

Gwyneth wrote on her website: “This programme allowed me to work and exercise regularly, some-thinI cannot do if I am on a liquidonly detox. I followed it to the letter and I feel pure and happy and much lighter.”

But the programme, devised by cardiologist and detox specialist Dr Alejandro Junger, is not everyone’s cup of herbal tea. Nutritionist Carina Norris warned: “When people start talking of detox diets, alarm bells ring in my head.

“It’s great to give your body a rest from too much processed foods and sugars but there’s no need to do something so drastic. “It can be low in calories so it would work but anything over a few days is not good for you.”
