There was a new wrinkle
In the morning you look in the mirror and think: "God, yesterday it was not!" The appearance of a new fold on the face is not necessarily caused by age changes. Sometimes this is the result of an improper diet the day before, excessive dragging of alcohol, fluid retention and the appearance of a puffiness. Perhaps, it is not too late to repair the damage, and the skin will be smoothed out a little. If in the morning you suddenly found a new wrinkle on your face, then quickly eat a piece of black bread, sprinkled with olive oil or half an avocado. As research proves, people, whose diet includes olive oil, have fewer wrinkles than those who adhere to butter. The reason lies in the monounsaturated fats, abundant in olive oil. Avocados have the same monounsaturated fats as in olive oil, plus fiber and very useful B vitamins.
PMS makes you dangerous to others
Put a pinch of saffron in food: this exotic spice successfully removes aggressiveness in this difficult period for a woman, increasing serotonin levels and reducing fatigue and irritability. With the onset of PMS, increase the intake of carbohydrates, especially complex ones (such as oatmeal, buckwheat, brown rice). Complex carbohydrates maintain a stable level of sugar in the blood, which ensures a long satiety, create a good mood and reduce the desire to eat sweet at night. But with acute manifestations of premenstrual syndrome it is permissible to eat between basic meals and a little sweet (simple carbohydrates) - honey, flour products - they also raise the level of serotonin, and very quickly, relieving depression and irritability.
Your belly groans
Get rid of flatulence, if you do not have drugs at your fingertips or you prefer alternative drugs, you can by eating a pinch of fennel seeds. A glass of yogurt or natural unsweetened yogurt will also help.
You do not sleep at home and you have nothing to brush your teeth
Eat a piece of cheese or drink a glass of yogurt. The mouth after this does not need to rinse for an hour. Useful bacteria of unsweetened sour-milk products will protect your teeth from caries, providing you with the right level of acidity in the oral cavity, and the calcium contained in them will strengthen the tooth enamel.
