Phytochemicals are natural compounds found in fruits and vegetables we consume daily. Phytochemicals work by helping plants to survive in hostile environments. Phytochemicals also help plants to survive against bacteria, fungi, viruses and cellular damage. Phytochemicals, when consumed, help your body fight against free radicals (which cause cellular damage) as well as ultraviolet light. Phytochemicals have been shown to kill surface bacteria and reduce inflammation of the skin.
Aging is thought to be caused in part by free radical damage from overexposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays. There are two ways by which free radicals cause skin reactions in the body to age the skin:

Healthy Grocery Lists and High Fructose Corn Syrup
As the country’s waist lines continue to expand, we have come out of the high Carb fad and are back to whole-grains and more wholesome grains and breads. American’s are watching our weight more and more and even exercising at a higher rate than the past five years. We are still gaining weight. Why? The answer lies in a secret hidden ingredient in almost all the food and beverage we consume daily – High Fructose Corn Syrup.
High Fructose Corn Syrup is a newer and sweeter form of corn syrup which is made from corn starch by using enzymes. This is a cheaper alternative to using Cane Sugar, because corn is cheaper and two times as sweet as can sugar. Through the production process, the fructose content can be increased to 55% which makes it sweeter than Sucrose (table sugar). Because it is so high in sugar content, some researches believe that this is the reason why so many Americans suffer from Obesity and Diabetes. High Fructose Corn Syrup can affect appetite by triggering overeating. When consuming High Fructose Corn Syrup, it does not send chemical messengers to the brain to signal that you are full. These people tend to overeat. Energy bars and “healthy” beverages have the most amount of High Fructose Corn Syrup. People consume large amounts of these “healthy” foods which is causing more harm to their bodies than they realize
Read labels and avoid any products that have sugar as one of the first ingredients on the Food Label. Some labels even state that they have High Fructose Corn Syrup, but most just list this as sugar. When shopping, avoid the center aisles and shop only the perimeter, which is where you find foods in their natural state. By eating a diet full of fruits and vegetables, lean meats, eggs, protein, beans, nuts, whole grain cereals and breads, you will be avoiding some of the most dangerous ingredients lurking in your pantry
Some women suffer from very large breasts that cause medical problems, such as back and neck pain, breathing, and indentations in the shoulders due to bra straps digging in the skin. This can cause most women with large breasts to become self-conscious. Breast Reduction surgery, also known as Reduction Mammaplasty, removes fat, glandular tissue, and extra skin from the breasts to make them smaller, lighter and firmer. Some women also suffer from enlarged areolas, which breast reduction surgery can also correct.
Breast Reduction surgery is mostly performed to aid in the relief from stiffness and pain rather than for Cosmetic purposes. Unfortunately, every surgery results in scarring which in this case, can be hidden by a bathing suit or bra. This surgery is not recommended for women who plan to become pregnant or nurse, because the ability to breast feed cannot be guaranteed.
After the surgery, most people experience swelling and bruising and may ache for a week or so. One of the first changes you will notice is the pain and soreness in the back and shoulders will dissipate almost immediately. You will be rid of large breasts, your body will be more proportioned and your clothes will fit better.
