Cyn's Supplements Pick

I'm a pro dietary supplements and I believe the right supplementation programme can enhance your well being.

A while ago I posted an entry about supplement HERE.

So what supplements am I personally taking?

A lot. Sampai housemate saya cakap

"kau kan banyak ubat."

And another friend lamented

"peti ais orang lain penuh dengan makanan, peti ais you penuh supplement."

Eh harus lah. Weols kan nak sehat, cantik gojes mojes meletop kebabommmm.

Most of my supplements are anti-oxidants. Benefits of anti-oxidants you ask me?

Many. I take it for anti-aging benefits.

Antioxidants is a group of nutrients that fight against free radicals in the body (usually resulted from normal physiological process such as breathing and exercise or external factors such as smoking or stress).

These free radicals attack healthy cells.

So simply put, antioxidants protect against cell damage caused by free radicals. As diseases are often caused by damaged cells, antioxidants protect against diseases (heart, brain, eyes, including cancer).

I take Vitamin C, Grape Seed Extract, Alpha Lipoic Acid and Placenta/Stem cells. So there goes my how-I-stay-young secret.

I will not elaborate so much on Vitamin C because it is a well known vitamin and a potent water-soluble anti-oxidant.

1. Grape seed extract - Click HERE to read about it.

2. Alpha Lipoic Acid - Click HERE. The coolest thing about ALA is it is both water and fat soluble anti-oxidant and can cross your blood-brain barrier to exert it's effect on brain cells. In Europe, ALA is used to treat diabetes to improve insulin sensitivity and reduces it's complications. It is also used in treatment of stroke and improve the prognosis.

3. Placenta/Stem cells - I take sheep placenta and you might go "ewwww" but hey, it works for me and many others. Placenta is a source of growth factor and stem cells or baby cells. It's for renewal, regeneration and rejuvenating. The difference I noticed? My skin is glowing and I looked radiant. Your skin is an indicator of your internal system. When you are healthy inside, it shows on your skin first.

Can you overdose on anti-oxidants?

You are exposed to free-radicals everyday and safe to say you need anti-oxidants everyday.

Some expect miracles and want to see result right away. It does not work like that.

Anti-oxidants or supplements in general need time to work. You might not see it now but 5-10 years down the line, you'll be thankful that you take anti-oxidants or supplements.

You'll have better immune system, better energy and you'll look better than people who are not taking anything.

How has it worked for me so far?

I would say that in the past year, I don't get fever and even if I get cough, cold, flu or sore throat (which is very rare), I recover within 3 days. The only MC i took last year was to extract my wisdom tooth.

And i don't look my age. *fliphair

It's all synthetic and artificial you say and has lots of side effects?

Then tell me why you don't think twice about smoking, shisha or chug down beer and alcohol like nobody's business? Or drink soda, eat junk food like your life depended on it?

With supplements, you have to do some trial and error because each and everyone of us is unique.

Our body works differently. You have to understand your body well to find out what works best for you.

Porn Puaka Di Gym

Tajuk mengundang kontroversi Sis ni bukan apa rajin pergi gym, selain nak bersenam, iols juga suka mencuci mata. Bukan setakat mencuci mata dengan jantan helok (I'm still hoping sebab gym iols pegi tu SENDUU), sis juga suka melihat gegadis yang fefeeling gedik dengan bermacam fesyen di gym tu. Biasanya gegadis newbie ni macam cendawan. Muncul sekejap di kala azam baru masih utuh yakni di awal tahun atau selepas perayaan di mana memasing nak kurus.

Otot Lagi Berat Daripada Lemak?

Otot Lagi Berat Daripada Lemak? Pernah tak korang hadapi situasi macam ni. Bersenam dah all out, membanting tulang dan tenaga di gym. Dalam semangat nak lose weight tu, timbang diri setiap jam, setiap hari! Disebabkan dah berabis workout dan mengamalkan diet rumput rumpai, korang pun expect berat turun kan? Tiba-tiba bila naik atas penimbang tu, berat tak turun pun. Maintain je. Kadang-kadang lagi teruk. BERAT NAIK PULAK!! Bila terjadi perkara macam ni, korang pun berjalan perlahan-lahan ke sudut bilik, dan mengerekot di dalam bilik yang gelap sambil mengenang nasib. Sangat mematahkan semangat, berkecamuk jiwa dan raga. I know. I've been there. CPPS pun pernah mengalami perkara yang sama Workout dah betul, diet pula calorie deficit. You have done everything right but your weight INCREASED! Rasa nak putus asa dan minum racun rumpai. Kemudian ahli keluarga, PT atau kakak cleaner gym dengan penuh rasa kasihan cuba memujuk.

In case you have not read the part 1, click HERE . So on the 3rd day we went island hopping to Phi Phi Island where the movie "The Beach" featuring Leonardo Dicaprio was filmed. Bought the package while wandering around Patong Beach but you can get these island hopping packages anywhere in Phuket. Like many other things in Phuket, you have to bargain. We got our package for 1050 Baht/pax which included transport to and fro hotel, lunch and refreshments, snorkeling equipment and covers Maya Bay (where the filming was), Loh Samah Bay, Pileh Lagoon, Viking Cave, Monkey Beach and Khai Nok Island. We only stop and got down the boat at Maya Bay, another lagoon i don't know what's the name for snorkeling, Phi Phi Don for lunch and Khai Nok Island. They picked us up at 7.45am from the hotel and all of us gathered in a place for a briefing. There were 3 boats that day for all of us, then departed to the jetty which was about 1...

Guide To First Dates For Dummies

Guide To First Dates For Dummies While I'm not exactly an expert in relationships, first dates, and stuff, I've had a few learning experiences and a panel of consultants. I feel the need to share with you, especially guys, a few do's and don'ts of a first date. Basically to give you some idea of what girls expect on a first date and to save you from embarrassment and disappointments from not securing a second date. 1. Dress To Impress DO NOT underestimate the power of dressing. You only have one chance at making a good first impression. You don't have to wear something expensive or trendy. Just something tidy, presentable, smart, or casual. Something you are comfortable in. Jeans, a nice shirt and shoes would be fine. No short pants, slippers, and ratty t-shirts. If you want to wear shorts, wear them with a shirt (with collar) and shoes instead. Hair should be presentable, facial hairs trimmed and tidy, no bad breath or body odour. Use cologn...
