NATIONAL HOT FUDGE SUNDAE DAY




NATIONAL HOT FUDGE SUNDAE DAY
 Today is National Hot Fudge Sundae Day! A sundae is the perfect treat to enjoy on a summer night. The cold ice cream paired with a warm, chocolate topping is one of the most delicious combinations known to man. Add some nuts, whipped cream, and cherries on top and you’ve got yourself a world-famous dessert!
Annually celebrated on July 25, we honor this tasty treat that has been served to many since hot fudge was first introduced in 1906. The Guinness Book of World Records has documented several record-setting sundaes. For example, the most expensive sundae can be ordered at Serendipity 3 in New York City for the hefty sum of $1000. In 2009, the Kids Club in Brunswick, Georgia created the world’s longest sundae. It measured over 130 feet long!
 To celebrate National Hot Fudge Sundae Day, you don’t have to go to such great lengths. Just treat yourself to a scrumptious hot fudge sundae with all of your favorite toppings. Good luck beauties! ;)

Why Do Women Choose Lasik Eye Surgery Over Contact Lenses?



In the U.S. there are estimated to be 36 million contact lens wearers and two-thirds being female. If you happen to be one of these 36 million, you may be struggling with taking the proper daily steps for caring for your contact lenses. You know the drill: First, wash your hands with soap and water and thoroughly dry with a clean towel. Next, gently take the contact lens out of your eye, apply solution and gently clean the lenses with the pads of your fingers for 30 seconds. Open up your contact lens case, fill both sides with solution, and finally, lightly drop your contact lenses into the solution. Repeat this process every time you sleep, shower or swim. In order to properly care for your contacts, and to avoid any long term vision damage, all these steps should be taken accordingly.Women who wear contact lenses may have some trouble wearing makeup
For women who wear makeup, caring for contact lenses becomes a bit more complicated. Women should make sure to put contact lenses in before applying makeup, and should make sure to take them out before removing makeup. Even, if you are taking these proper steps, there are still other factors that can irritate, dry out or infect your contact lenses. How many women have been blinded by an eyelash that has been coated in their favorite, voluminous mascara? Or has had their favorite eye shadow fall into their eye, and under their contact lens, creating irritation and a cataract effect? If not treated properly, all these factors could lead to future vision damage. Want an easier solution to contact lenses? LASIK eye surgery may be just what you have been longing for!

LASIK: The Alternative to Contact Lenses

Forgetting, misplacing, rubbing, tearing, scratching, losing, itching, these are only a few words that could describe wearing contact lenses. Laser vision correction is a great alternative to wearing contact lenses. Could you imagine, never having to worry about irritating your eyes while applying makeup? Never having to constantly put in or take out a foreign object from your eyes on a daily basis? How about, waking up without stumbling to find your contact lenses in order to see your surroundings? Lasik eye surgery can provide all these positive, life changing opportunities plus more!
If you have any questions about laser vision correction surgery, call Global Laser Vision at 1-800-GET-LASIK or visit us at San Diego Lasik Center Global Laser Vision.

How to permanently change your eye color



Brown Eyes Turn Blue: The Laser Procedure that Permanently Changes Eye Color 



According to Strōma Medical Corporation's founder, many people would like to turn their brown eyes blue. Strōma Medical Corporation web

"We all have blue eyes."

So begins the website copy for Strōma Medical Corporation, located in shimmering Southern California. The site, which is positively littered with photographs of beautiful blue-eyed people, advertises a treatment that will permanently change brown eyes into blue.
"In the case of brown eyes, however, a thin layer of brown pigment covers the front surface of the iris (the colored part of the eye). The Strōma laser disrupts this layer of pigment, causing the body to initiate a natural and gradual tissue-removal process. Once the tissue is removed, the patient's natural blue eye is revealed."
As described by Strōma Medical, the ease of this new, non-invasive procedure, which takes just 20 seconds to complete, sounds positively futuristic.Actually, it is.


Dr. Homer - Inventor 
Patients will watch a short animated sequence while a computer-guided laser works its magic, The New York Daily News reported. "You won't feel anything," Homer told the paper. "Your eyes will get a little darker for the first week. Then in two to four weeks, they'll be completely changed."
After completing the treatment, which is expected to cost about $5,000, the brown pigment won't return, claimed Homer.
Homer expects his company will spend another year conducting research on the treatment to satisfy the requirements of multiple regulatory bodies. Still, he is confident the procedure doesn't cause tissue damage and, to date, no adverse events have been reported.The procedure has only undergone limited study inhumans; Strōma Medical will treat about 20 patients in an upcoming initial pilot clinical study. Upon successful completion of that pilot study, the company plans to treat about 100 patients in multiple countries and follow them for a predetermined length of time. In a poll of 2,000 patients, Homer told The Daily News that 17.5 percent said they would seek the treatment.

10 Fat Fighting Foods to Eat

10 Fat Fighting Foods to Eat


When you’re trying to lose weight, it can be demoralizing to constantly be reminded of all the foods you should not be eating. But some foods are ideal for weight control. Dubbed “fast foods” or “edible amphetamines”, some foods help speed up the metabolism and break down fat.
Others nurture the liver or keep you full for longer. But there are no “zero-kilojoule” foods, says Laura Sutherland, dietitian and spokesperson for the Dietitians Association of Australia.
“Foods can play a part in minimising our build-up of fat storage, but the real key is energy in versus energy out – not taking in too many extra kilojoules and burning off a little extra.” Here are the ten best foods to reach for.

1. Lean meat

Why you can eat up: Researchers in Denmark found boosting the lean protein in your diet may help you burn five per cent more kilojoules a day, perhaps because it takes more energy to digest protein than carbohydrates or fat. Sutherland says lean meat’s benefit is satiety. “A meal with lean protein makes you feel satisfied, which helps to avoid overeating later.”
How to eat: Opt for lean pork, chicken or turkey and remove any skin beforehand.

2. Low-fat milk, cheese, yoghurt

Why you can eat up: A US study found consuming about 1300 milligrams of calcium a day helped people lose almost twice as much weight. Another study found post-menopausal women who consumed calcium with vitamin D supplements put on less weight than those who didn’t. It is thought calcium may break down fat cells and suppress the growth of new ones.
How to eat: Eat low-fat yoghurt and add reduced-fat or cottage cheese to a sandwich.

3. Berries and citrus fruits

Why you can eat up: Vitamin C-rich foods contain flavones, compounds that increase metabolism, control cholesterol levels and help dilute fats. A US study found women with a high-flavone diet gained less body fat over 14 years than those not on the diet. Another study found eating strawberries and raspberries before exercise helped burn up to 30 per cent more fat.
How to eat: Try fresh orange juice, a fruit smoothie or a handful of berries before gym.

4. Soybeans, chickpeas, lentils
Why you can eat up: “Legumes, lentils, soybeans and chickpeas are a mix of protein and carbohydrate,” says Sutherland. They’re low in fat, high in fibre and have a low glycaemic index (GI). Soybeans also contain choline, a component of lecithin which helps to move fat from the liver.
How to eat: Add to soups, curries or stir-fries.

5. Salmon, avocado, nuts, ground flaxseed

Why you can eat up: Oily fish and plant-based fats contain essential fatty acids that help burn fat. Research shows adding a handful of walnuts or almonds to a low-fat diet daily helps to reduce weight, body fat and insulin levels. Fish has also been found to lower women’s levels of leptin, a hormone linked to a slower metabolism and obesity.
How to eat: Eat a handful of unsalted, unroasted nuts, add flaxseed to cereal or yoghurt, eat avocado and salmon sandwiches.

6. Cinnamon

Why you can eat up: US Agricultural scientists found adding just a quarter teaspoon of cinnamon to your diet can boost your sugar metabolism, lower blood sugar levels and help you store less fat.
How to eat: Add to yoghurt or smoothies.

7. Sweet potatoes, oats, wholegrain cereal

Why you can eat up: The high soluble fibre content and low GI keep you full for longer. “This helps regulate blood glucose levels [so] you don’t want to snack,” says Sutherland.
How to eat: Eat porridge, wholegrain sandwiches, lean meat and sweet potatoes.

8. Chilli, cayenne pepper

Why you can eat up: Studies show that people who eat spicy foods consume less kilojoules and carbohydrates than those with milder tastebuds. Scientists believe it’s thanks to the chemical capsaicin, which can trigger a thermodynamic burn that speeds up heart rate and boosts metabolism by as much as 25 per cent. “You sweat more, so the body’s working harder,” says Sutherland.
How to eat: Pair with lean protein to help process fat through the body.

9. Mustard, Indian curries

Why you can eat up: While more human testing is needed, a US study found that turmeric, the spice that adds colour to mustard and Indian curries, slows down the spread of fat tissue in animals and lowers blood glucose, triglyceride, fatty acid and cholesterol.
How to eat: Add turmeric to curry or casseroles. Try mustard on sandwiches instead of butter or mayonnaise.

10. Ginger and garlic

Why you can eat up: Ginger and garlic are vasodilators, expanding your blood vessels and boosting body heat. In turn, your metabolism speeds up a little (some animal studies found ginger increased metabolism by as much as 20 per cent).
How to eat: Add ground or fresh to curries and stir-fries. Add ginger to tea and fresh juice and garlic to salad dressings.
