Polysaccharide Iron Complex for Anemic

As I look to my arms yesterday, I was shocked, surprised or whatever. Just the other day in the gym I feel so proud with my white skin, I even told my husband how my skin looks like because I am really so dark after our vacation in Bangladesh.So feeling confused I look at the mirror and I am really dark than the other day I didn’t go out aside from I bought an Iron supplements and its already late in the afternoon that time and there’ s no sun plus I didn’t take longer in the street.

So I asked Pookie bear too look at me and inspect my skin color and he also agreed I am little darker than the other day. After it I laughed, darn I thought I am already in white complexion and the whitening lotion really works but guess what I am just anemic, I am not really in white complexion I am just lack of blood.

Pookie bear laughed at me when he heard  my thoughts about using whitening lotion, he asked me if I really believed that my lotion will makes me white. I told him instead that the iron supplement works because I have blood now what I mean my blood is circulating well. As I inspect my hands too I was surprised that my palm is not that dark anymore like there’s bruises, he laughed again to me and asked me if what do I think the iron supplements I bought works like magic when I just took it for one day, I corrected him two days. He still laughed but I let him laugh at least I improved a little or I see improvements to myself.

For your own information Iron plays an important role in taking oxygen and transporting it to where it is needed in the body. Iron is taken into the red blood cells and made into hemoglobin. Hemoglobin actually carries the oxygen around in the body.

I have found out when you are taking iron supplements it really gives a tanning effect and when you are taking this supplement don’t take it with dairy products or antacids, last night I had a cup of coffee with milk and after few minutes I had a severe headache, I don’t know if it is related or not.

Anyway here are the side effects as listed below:

Minor:

  • heartburn
  • nausea
  • vomiting
  • constipation
  • diarrhea
  • black stools

Major:

  • stomach pain or cramping
  • bloody stools

This supplement must be taken under doctor’s supervision but I take it so I am a bit worried, Pookie bear says it is not harmful as long as I am not going to overdosed myself and it is just a supplement. For more information read more about this supplements here.

Anyway girls better check-out if you’re really having light complexion using whitening lotion or maybe you are already anemic without your knowing.

Fear over radioactive rain in South Korea

It is holiday today what I mean yesterday (Thursday) because of fear of radio active rain, rain that contained radioactive material from Japan’s stricken nuclear plant so dozens of South Korean schools cancelled classes including Pookie bear’s school. I have told him about the fear the other night but he don’t believed me, so he still went to school and went home afterwords. I told him the gym might be closed but I was wrong the gym is still open so even I feel weak due to I did not eat any rice again just the spaghetti I have cooked which is still carbohydrates by the way I still need to work out.

Anyway as quoted in yahoo news – the amount of radioactive material contained in the rainfall is too tiny to pose any health threat. So it is still healthy to shower in the rain.

Importance of Good Personal Hygiene

Image not Mine

Personal hygiene  is the first step to have a good health,  so if you want to be healthy and protected from several viruses you should take a bath regularly, trim your fingernails and toenails, brush your teeth and use deodorant everyday.  You have to know it can enhance your self-confidence and improve your chances of success in many areas of your life. Spraying perfumes is not enough to be presentable if you don’t take a bath regularly because no matter how you keep your body smell by using strong perfumes it won’t help you are just making it worst and you are just wasting your money all you need is a pail of water and soap.

If you don’t know yet your personal hygiene can affect other people and your social life. Nobody wants to stay and sit for a long time near the smelly garbage can, so as you.

Always remember too that a lack of personal hygiene can cause many health problems. People who do not bathe regularly are more susceptible to fungus infections such as jock itch, athlete’s feet or toenail fungus infections. A lack of oral hygiene can cause fungus infections such as oral thrush. Those who fail to wash their hands regularly are more prone to getting viruses or bacterial infections from others. Bed bugs are a common problem when good hygiene and regular cleaning are lacking.
