Hand Sanitizer and Sanitation

                                                                        Hey Earth’s Enrichers 

Sanitizer
Sanitizer

After dealing with allergies, blowing your nose, and sneezing…all things you can do that can incorporate your hands, we should probably talk about the most popular way to deal with the germs in the room. One popular solution for fighting bacteria and germs is hand sanitizer. We don’t know about you, but we noticed a sudden boom in hand sanitizer use within the past few years and wanted to make sure you know the facts.

For instance, hand sanitizers are great for dealing with small or minor cases of bacteria and germs. They are not helpful for grimy and visible situations. With that being said, the main and most effective ingredient in hand sanitizers is ethanol, more commonly known as alcohol. This ingredient in hand sanitizer is only effective at destroying bacteria and germs if the alcohol percentage is 60 or above. Any alcohol content lower than that in hand sanitizer is basically not as effective as should be.

Using hand sanitizer in tight or mobile situations can’t be helped but should not replace the tradition of hand washing. Washing your hands with soap and water is more effective and healthier for your skin. With the constant use of alcohol your skin can become dried out and crack. This leaves your hands rough and vulnerable to infection. The drier your skin, the greater the risk that cracking can cause minor open wounds vulnerable to the bacteria and germs you come in contact with.

We know you are desperate to get ahead of allergies and spreading/catching germs but make sure you keep in mind the repercussions of excessiveness. Just because something is said to be good for skin doesn’t always mean it’s good for your skin and good in excessive amounts.

The EE 411: General Hand Sanitizer Tips

When using or selecting hand sanitizer, please keep the following in mind:
• Make sure to choose hand sanitizers with an alcohol content of 60% or above.
• Never over or excessively use hand sanitizers—wash your hands with soap and water instead.
• Look for sanitizers that may incorporate a skin nourishment feature such as a moisturizer.
• When using hand sanitizers or washing your hands, keep hand lotion nearby and apply when needed to prevent cracks in your hands. This would be a perfect opportunity to try some of our body balms. They are cost effective, and a little at a time is all you need to rehydrate your skin. They are perfect to keep near the sink or on your desk in case of emergencies.
Remember to never just take our word for it. Though we do our research, we highly recommend you do yours! Always do what’s best for you, like we always say, you deserve it!

Spring Allergies

                                                                        Gesundheit Earth’s Enrichers 

Allergies
Allergies

Allergies! It’s the sneezing—ugh, excuse us, SEASON for sneezing, coughing, burning eyes, and irritation we’ve all come to loathe. Trust us when we say we understand your pain. You know what’s to blame for that? Pollen blowing through the air coming from trees, grass, and weeds! Once the pollen goes into the nose it can cause people to sneeze, cough, and, well, you know the rest.

This week we will focus on some brief reminders of ways to help relieve the effects of allergies. Do you remember the effects of aroma therapy? Pure mint is the end all be all for congestion. Using a neti pot or a bowl of hot, and we mean HOT, water pour a little mint extract or oil and inhale gently (keep your eyes closed). It can temporarily relieve the congestion. Ah, to breathe again.

It also wouldn’t hurt to soak in a little Calming Spa Seaweed (bath salts).  It contains rosemary mint which may also help with decongestion while you detox everything else. Speaking of salt, salt can help temporally relieve soreness in the limbs and throat. Take warm water, not HOT, mix it with salt, and gargle with it—we wouldn’t recommend swallowing. Don’t use tap water, you want to make sure the water or steam produced by water is clean to avoid any other risks.

Staying hydrated is important in any season or time of the year. Not to mention, those of you who get special eye drops or nasal sprays, etc. stay on top of your stock and keep in touch with your doctor. As always do what is best for you. Check expiration dates, use clean hot/warm water, and try to stay relaxed! Stress won’t help make your allergy symptoms any better.

The EE 411: Don’t Forget your Tea when it Comes to Allergies

Folks tend to forget the natural benefits of tea! Well, don’t. Tea has a refreshing warmth that helps quell the congestion and please the pallet. It’s also that cool crispness needed to revitalize you on a sunny, hot day. Nevertheless, we realize tea is an acquired taste but if you haven’t had the pleasure, now’s as good of a time as any.

Hair Dying Exclusive: Lead Acetate

                                                                        Hey Earth’s Enrichers 

Okay Earth’s Enrichers, it’s Easter this weekend—let’s talk about the dye! Not for your eggs this year but for your hair. That’s right, maybe this year you may swap out the eggs for the hair on your dome and still end up making beautiful masterpieces. And we mean masterpieces that are also safe and healthy for your hair.

You guys know the steps for dying your hair, don’tcha? Like say for instance you used an All You Need Deep Cleansing Shampoo bar to cleanse your hair before dying, right? *buzzer noise* Wrong! You actually want to dye your hair before washing it or getting it wet. It helps the color stick! Then rinse gently until excess color is gone. Then, when you are tired of the color, if it is temporary, you can wash it out with the All You Need hair care products.

We at EE inspire you to be creative while sharing with you important facts to do so safely. So, what’s lead acetate?

Lead acetate is a detrimental crystal-like compound that, when ingested, produces a sugary taste. It can be found in sweeteners that substitute sugar and cosmetics like hair dye/coloring. Some of the side effects that lead acetate can produce are below:
• Irritation to the eyes
• Respiratory tract issues
• Headache
• Nausea and vomiting
• Colic
• Constipation
• Dizziness
• Loss of consciousness
• Depression
…For more information go to CBS News.

There are some that have determined that if the FDA allowed it to be in certain cosmetics like hair dye on such a minor scale, that it may not be dangerous if used properly. If you concur with the skeptics, please take precaution. Only use the product on hair (externally) and make sure that it does not seep into your blood stream via scrape or open sore on the head. We don’t recommend using products with lead acetate—why take the risk?—it is important to play it safe and careful.

Needless to say, we recommend that you pay close attention when dying your “Easter Egg” (for some of you who didn’t get that we meant hair ^-^). Feel free to express yourself but do so by supporting products that care about your health or won’t risk it, use safe/organic/all-natural ingredients, and who don’t use skeptical ingredients.

The EE 411: The History of Lead Acetate

Lead acetate has actually played an interesting role in our history:
 Pope Clement II, who died in October 1047, was rumored to have been poisoned. Later, toxicology reports (mid-20th century) confirm this possible truth.
 Albert Christoph, a German painter, composer, and biographer; inadvertently swallowed a bit of lead acetate and never fully recovered.
 Another rumor, this time about the infamous Ludwig van Beethoven. Beethoven may have died from minute concentrations of lead acetate in contaminated wine—the mystery remains.

In all seriousness and history, lead acetate has played many roles in cosmetics, in mysterious deaths, and, even, medicine and industry. To better understand lead acetate, its history, and how to avoid it; we invite you to do scrupulous research.

As always, we here at EE want the best for you, your hair/skin care, and your health. You deserve the best without risk!

New Year, New Healthier You

Hey Earth’s Enrichers

Goals for 2017
Goals for 2017

Happy New Year! I hope you all had a good time bidding 2016 goodbye. It was filled with a lot of great memories, learning experiences, and moments that some of us would like to forget. Nevertheless, 2016 is now history and 2017 is here! Time for New Year’s Resolutions and a better, healthier you!

We are serious about healthier beginnings here at EE. We would like to personally welcome you to the New Year with a challenge. We challenge you to start this year off right with healthier decisions whether it’s better fitness, nutrition, skin care, financial health, and/or better stress management.

Health is a broad subject and doesn’t just limit itself to what is put on or in your body. Being healthy means finding a perfect balance between your soul, environment, mind, and body. So make sure you take the time you need for you! When your environment starts to get too overwhelming and your soul, mind and body can’t take it anymore, center yourself with meditation, music, a vacation, or treat yourself to a nice massage (*whispers* You deserve it).

On the other hand, what you put in and on your body is still very important, so EE also challenges you to read labels and look up ingredients you can’t pronounce. Research how those ingredients could affect your health. Start taking the all-natural and organic route because it can be the better option—or at least try it… it doesn’t hurt to try it. 

Last but not least, the most important we think, take the time to LAUGH! We said it, laugh. Humor can be the fix for almost any problem. Take a moment and listen to your favorite comedian, google some memes, read a comic strip or something. A good giggle is good for you, it’s practically science. Okay, maybe not science but it does help relieve stress and diffuse tense situations.

I think those are all the challenges we have for you today. Remember the gist—we challenge you to find a nice healthy balance between your mind, body, environment and soul. Take some you time if needed and sneak in some giggles daily to relieve stress. Also, try new things like all-natural and organic options, which can be better for you!!!

Share with Us: What are some of your New Year’s Resolutions?

“Ignorance is Not Bliss” – Chemicals in Cosmetics

Hey Earth’s Enrichers 

The organic and all-natural skin care community seems to have finally been heard! Just a few weeks ago CBS aired a segment about how important it is to know what you are using on your bodies in terms of skin care beauty products like hair products, make-up, soaps, and nail polish. Beware of the chemicals in cosmetics.  As mentioned by Dr. Elizabeth Tanzi in their CBS production, “Ignorance is not bliss.” What have we said every day since we began, Earth’s Enrichers? Skin care is not just important to your outer appearance but also your inner body– know your body and yourself by paying attention to the products you use.

As I mentioned before, we are being heard. Lawmakers are coming together to pass a law that allows the FDA to test whether the amounts of dangerous chemicals like formaldehyde are being used at safe levels. If levels are determined to be too high or dangerous, the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) would have the power to recall the items in question. However, it is our concern that with constant or everyday use of products with even small dosages of harmful chemicals, that it’s still not a healthy choice for your body.

We digress, if Congress is starting to pay attention to the bigger issue, then kudos to us and them for making a stand to change! Stand fast in your home remedies and organic solutions because you, Earth’s Enrichers, are making a difference and taking care of your health from the inside out!

The EE 411: Numbers and Chemicals in Cosmetics

According to “Dangerous chemicals in cosmetics spur action by lawmakers,” Europe bans over 1,000 chemicals from their personal care product formulations. We checked the facts on this one: Page 18 of “the Council Directive” begins the list of chemicals banned from Europe. The U.S., on the other hand, according to CBS only bans 11 of these same chemicals, and this is supported by the FDA’s website.

So again, we urge you to look out for possibly harmful chemicals in your products while paying close attention to hair care, straighteners that may use formaldehyde or hair dye that may use propylparaben (lead acetate); and newer nail polish that lasts more than a week, which may also contain formaldehyde.

Earth’s Enrichers, we are not trying to scare you but we are trying to inform you. Harmful chemicals in skin care products is nothing new, and it has been around since the dawn of skin care products. Awareness is key to making a positive change and it also allows you to explore your options. We make USDA certified organic and all-natural skin care and hair care options because we care about you and you deserve the best. And for you, all-natural, non-GMO, organic, and chemical and paraben- free IS the best!

This extra expression of your love will make this year’s gift very special!

The EE 411: Keeping her Health in Mind

When we were kids, mommas would take care of our every need. They would feed us, dress us, hug us and kiss us.  They would also bathed us and made sure our skin was properly cared for. This meant that they would check the products they used to make sure they were right for their baby’s skin.

Health and Living – The Many Phases of Migraines

 

Migraine and headache people - Doctor stressed. Woman Nurse / doHey Earth’s Enrichers 

Migraines are a common problem for many individuals and can become major hindrances in everyday tasks. One of the first questions is: what is the difference between a normal headache and a migraine.

Headaches tend to be rather easy to get rid of and can be dealt with minor pain meds or reduction of stress.  Migraines, on the other, are a lot more difficult to get rid of as the pain becomes more severe. The best way to stop a migraine is to catch it before it becomes too severe, but how do you know when you have a migraine? Once you get it, how can you stop it?

Migraines can come with the following symptoms:

  • Blurred vision
  • Loss of appetite
  • Nausea or vomiting , abdominal pain or upset stomach
  • Paleness
  • Sensitivity to light, noises
  • Sensitivity to odor or scents
  • Dizziness
  • Seeing spots or slight distortions
  • Fatigue
  • Fever

A lot of the symptoms vary depending on the individual; not all people with migraines will have light sensitivity or a fever. It’s best if you feel these symptoms coming about to get yourself in a safe place and relax to determine the severity of the oncoming migraine.

Dealing with a migraine can come in many fashions. Some individuals can rest and sleep off the pain. This option may not be plausible for individuals who are always on the go and can’t just stop to rest. There are over the counter pain relievers that are known to help relieve the pain. If they do not work or if you are unsure, it is best to see your doctor or a professional who can give you the best advice on how to deal with the pain.

If you have never experienced a migraine before and suddenly find yourself in a predicament where you can’t relieve the pain, try to pace your breathing. Whatever you do, do not cry because you will put unnecessary tension in the area of the pain and cause it to worsen. Find a friend, family member or coworker to drive you to a hospital or a care facility. It is best to get yourself to a place where professionals can help you ease the pain safely with your health in mind.

The EE 411: The Four Phases

There are four phases to a migraine that help you identify what it is and when it is coming.

The first phase is Prodrome. This can happen one to two days before a migraine and tends to cause small changes in behavior or habits. This can include cravings for certain foods, constipation, depression, hyperactivity, irritability, uncontrollable yawning, and neck stiffness.

The second phase is called Aura. This can happen either before or during a migraine. This can include visual phenomenon (seeing spots, bright spots, or varying shapes), vision loss, pins and needle sensations in the arms and legs, or loss of speech/language function (aphasia). 

The third phase is called Attack and this is when the migraine sets in. This can include pain on one or both sides of the head, painful throbbing or pulsating, sensitivity to light and sound or smells, blurred vision, nausea and vomiting, and light headedness.

The fourth phase is called the Postdrome and it occurs after the migraine is over. It is associated with extreme exhaustion or feeling drained. Sometimes people feel mild euphoria.

We hope this information helps you and that it has informed you of the severity of migraines. They are not meant to be taken lightly and anyone who has them should be considered with the utmost care. Please continue to do more research on your own time and remember to do what is best for your body.

Living Health – Foods that Boost Your Energy

 

Living Healthy - Foods that Boost Your EnergyHey Earth’s Enrichers 

Last week we talked about caffeine and how too much could possibly be detrimental to your health. Since we alerted you about caffeine risks, we thought we should give you some other options and means to boost your energy throughout the day. So, just for trivia, what is the most natural way to boost energy?

The answer: Eat! The body usually builds energy from sustenance. Carbohydrates help produce fuel for your body. Eating the right things throughout the day can help your body maintain energy. Perhaps, you may not have to turn to caffeine if you find out what foods provide you with the appropriate amount of energy.

Carbohydrates are meant to be burned off since one of their major purposes is to fuel your body. This is an important aspect to keep in mind when you are eating foods that contain them. It may be counterproductive to overeat the needed amount just as it is counterproductive to under eat. Make sure you don’t skip meals and snack regularly. Not eating properly is a perfect way to zap energy and cause you to turn to not-so-healthy immediate options.

Foods, drinks, or snacks with a lot of sugar will give you a rapid fire of energy, but only for a moment. This can also result in negative health effects and crashing. Trust us, there is nothing worse than a sugar crash when you need to keep moving.

Remember, there are plenty of opportunities throughout the day to sneak in nutrition. It is up to you to determine which of those are the best opportunities. When you are working at your desk starting to feel tired and your stomach growls– pull out an apple or trail mix. It will help keep you stimulated throughout the day.

The EE 411: Foods that Boost Your Energy

To keep you on your toes at work and give you a bit of variety, here are some selections that can help keep you energized throughout the day:

  • Eggs- consist of proteins that help repair your body’s energy after sleeping and boosts you for the day.
  • Brown Rice- has proteins and carbs that help produce energy
  • Fruits- natural sugars, glucose, that your body is better at metabolizing

o   Apples- fiber! A nice sweet way to keep your energy alive without crashing.

o   Oranges- with vitamin C, folate, potassium, fiber, this fruit will give you ongoing doses of energy with each orangy little piece.

o   Bananas- fiber, glucose, fructose, etc. that will help boost energy.

o   Blueberries- consist of energy improving carbs, plus they taste good.

  • Greek Yogurt- why not?!
  • Nuts
  • Beans- a great source of proteins and carbs.
  • Oats- fiber, reduce the risk of CVD.
  • Fish- fatty acids, B6 vitamins, riboflavin, etc. It can lower cholesterol and reduces CVD. 
  • Sweet Potatoes- Vitamin A, C, and Carbs to help increase energy.
  • Spinach- A top choice for iron that aids in producing energy.

Health and Living – Caffeine: Behind the Scene

 

Coffee to goHey Earth’s Enrichers 

Why is it that the thing you love the most can be the thing most detrimental to you? We know that there are a few of you that would love a cup of coffee. It may not even be for a pick-me-up, but because it’s just so delicious. You can get it in as many different flavors as you would like such as pumpkin spice, caramel, hazelnut, French vanilla, mocha, Irish cream, etc.  The same goes for teas like green, black, Earl Grey, jasmine, etc. The same also applies to some popular sodas. What do all these things have in common besides good taste? Caffeine!

Caffeine is the world’s universal pick-me-up! Whenever we feel we aren’t going to make it through the day, we either go for a soda or a cup of coffee. Not to mention a possible energy drink, but energy drinks hardly taste that great. The problem with caffeine is that it is the most heedlessly consumed drug for energy boosts. Some individuals tend to consume it recklessly without thinking about the possible consequences of consuming too much.  

Caffeine can be great and all, but you must be careful how much you consume. It can have adverse health effects that can cause discomfort. Just like any drug, it can be addictive. If you are used to consuming large amounts of caffeine and then suddenly decide to quit cold-turkey, it can cause headaches, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, and anxiety. In small and controlled doses, caffeine can be helpful. It can help give you the boost you need to complete the day, help reduce the discomfort of headaches and migraines, and it can improve memory functions.

The truth is that not everything you love has to be detrimental to your health. The trick is in playing your cards right. Balance the intake of your favorite things like coffee or soda. It can help benefit your health and increase your performance instead of taking away from it. Enjoy!

The EE 411:  Caffeine – Coffee’s Dark Side

What too much caffeine can do to you:

  • Make you anxious
  • Give you headaches
  • Create mood swings
  • Increase discomfort of menstrual cramps
  • Create an addiction
  • Cause insomnia
  • Produce Chest pains
  • Increase CVD problems and raise heart rate

Even though in excess it can have some adverse health effects, coffee can still benefit you.   Just remember to use it in moderation and look for natural options to keep you motivated throughout the day.

Share with Us: How do you keep yourself energized throughout the day?

P.S If you like coffee you may want to consider trying our USDA Certified Organic Bar Soap Fresh Ground Java.  This organic soap is enriched with hazelnut coffee and Tahitian vanilla.  Give your skin the wakeup call it deserves!
