Tip 1: Cutting 250 calories from your daily diet can help you lose up to half a pound a week. Add a 30-minute brisk walk four days a week and you can almost double your rate of weight loss.
Tip 2: Control your blood sugar for several days before a routine eye exam. This can help you get a proper prescription for eyeglasses.
Tip 3: instead of using salt to enhance food flavor, try using garlic, fresh ginger, citrus zest or juices, or flavored vinegars.
Tip 4: For safety's sake, never mix any cleaning products. For example, if you mix a product containing chlorine beach with one containing ammonia, you can produce toxic fumes.
Tip 5: Use only oil-free skin care and hair care products if you suffer from acne. Look for products labeled "oil-free," "nonacnegenic" or "noncomedogenic." They won't clog pores and cause breakouts like oily products can
