Foods that are high in antioxidants are what you are looking for. Fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and beans all contain antioxidants and are easy to eat daily.

It won’t make you look younger, but should at least reduce the effects of aging since oxidants damage your cells.

Shirley Allen answers:

Just a bad diet (and you should know if your diet is bad), can age you. Here is a link to some anti aging foods- http://www.womenfitness.net/anti_aging_food.htm

Find out YOGA THERAPY in your country, or visit websites regarding YOGA. No medications, no hazzles. Only they teach you how and when to consume more oxygen than you usually do. It is simple. The origin of Yoga therapy is India. If you may continue exercises throughout your life, at the age of 90 you may look like 50 year old.

Any foods that are high in anti oxidents,

A vegetarian diet is very beneficial. Many animals and birds are given a diet of anti-biotics and their feed has many undesirable additives, etc, to fatten them or make them more marketable. What they ingest meat eaters ingest and constantly eaten they can only harm health and prematurely age. It’s no mystery why we now see so much obesity resulting in much bad health, cancers, etc. And shortened lives. Raw foods are excellent. I switched to being a vegetarian and eat many raw. Salads, fruits, nuts, grains, natural oils, etc.( preferably organic i.e. Not treated with pesticides, and other harmful preservatives, etc ) are beneficial. Fresh squeezed fruit and vegetable juices are powerful anti-agers. They almost immediately benefited my health, appearance and energy levels. I get many comments “You look younger, healthier, fitter and your skin glows”.

Shirley Allen answers:

You don’t really need your own website to promote affiliate products. And yes, you can do it with blogs. A free blog. Like one with Blogger, is even better than having your own self-hosted site if you are just starting out. Blogger blogs get indexed faster.

You will eventually need your own website, even a free one, if you are ready to build your contact list and/or resell products. Building a list is the common advise. However, if you check out the “make money online” keyword, you will find a free Blogger blog at #1, and the owner does not need to bother with list-building.

If you are a sales people or business owner who is reading this article and you do not already have a strong online presence, you need to immediately start learning more about building trust before selling your product or service through the internet.

Building trust before selling your product or service is an actual problem for business owner or sales people. In fact, people will only buy something if they trust that it will help them. So your job as a business owner or an affiliate is to build up that expectation before sending a visitor to the actual sales page itself.

The training courses by Shoemoney and Yaro Starrak are a couple that generate quite a large return. However, speaking from experience, I’d first join Warrior Forum (a free membership) read up on Clickbank tips then move on to Clickbank and select products/services you’d like to get behind.

I do list several of my own money makers over the last 12 years on my website too – feel free to check it out. If you have any questions at all – I’m happy to answer.

Good luck

Shirley Allen answers:

For your age and skin type I would recommend Arbonne Intelligence 5 Step system for face. It is a natural, botanically based, swiss-formulated skin care system. It is ideal for young skin (from about age 16-36). The moisturizer is self-adjusting, so that you get the amount your skin needs, without being over-moisturized. The eye cream is FANTASTIC! The cleanser and pH balancing Toner are a must. And there is also a facial scrub to use twice a week for that ‘deep cleaning and exfoliating’. These Arbonne products contain no mineral oil, no petroleum products, no animal or animal by-products and no chemical fragrances.
Most over the counter products actually have ingredients in them that will ultimately harm your skin. One ingredient, mineral oil, is in 98% of all cosmetics and moisturizers, but has been found to be the second leading cause of premature aging of the skin. The molecules in mineral oil are too large to penetrate the skin (which is what the manufacturers had wanted it to do to moisturize), so they sit on top of your skin like a film of plastic wrap…this ‘seals’ the pores, so that your skin cannot breathe, and toxins cannot be released.
You are very lucky to have been blessed with great skin, so take care of it and don’t ruin it by using damaging products. You may have to pay a little bit more, but isn’t your skin and your health worth it? Feel free to email me if you have any other questions.

Shirley Allen answers:

Yes that would be mostly ok, I would really use a face lotion however. Hand and body lotion can be just a bit too hard for the sensitive skin on your face. Also make sure your cleanser and moisturizer are of the same brand so they work with each other instead of against. When you rinse your face be sure to wipe off with a warm wash cloth and not just water, a simple rinse leaves a residue on your face that can clog your pores no matter what cleanser you use.

For regular zits, proactiv is great. Try it and see if it helps your blackheads, but in the meantime…
When I was in high school I used this Mint Julep Mask by Queen Helene. I think you can get it at rite aid and walgreens. It is a thick clay mask that sucks the oil from your pores. It worked great. It dries on your face and you can see spots where it has sucked the oil from your pores!
Great stuff, it’s an old fashioned product (my mom used to use it back in her day) but it’s still around for a reason!
The crest whitestrips work good for your teeth.

Well i have just got another dog myself and i needed:
Water and food bowl considering its size
Dog collar and lead considering its size
Some toys because i believe that all dogs should have toys to play with for entertainment
Lots of treats for training
A bed so that when it is had enough it can calm down there (also dont send it on there if being naughty because it will see it for being a place for naughty dogs.)
You can also get a cage for your dog, it might sound mean but i have a Labrador that is 13 months now but i wouldn’t have coped without it, plus when you go out it is safe for the dog so it doesn’t chew anything dangerous and it will not be in danger from things.
You might need some newspaper also so you can toilet train him.
Dog shampoo for when he gets dirty.
For the first months you get puppy food ( if you read the back of the pack it will tell you about how many months you do that for).

I am only 15 but i have had two dogs in this last year and i have learned so must about them, also i have had 5 different dogs in my life time so i know different breeds, so if you would like to email me for tips i am happy to help you.
Plus i would love to work with dogs when i am older and i love helping people with their dogs.

The ball used to be an inflated pig’s bladder. This was in the English private schools, where the sport was developed. The bladder was then put in a leather casing, and was played with like that.

Shirley Allen answers:

What type of photography do you do are are interested in doing?

Studio lights are useless for someone doing sports or landscapes.
Macro lenses are useless for people doing fashion.
A super telephoto is useless to someone who does portraits.

I like doing portraiture so what changed it for me was my 50mm f1.8 and my first shoe mount flash. I now have a 24-70 f2.8 and a small portable (flash based) lighting kit I put together. In my case, the flash REALLY made a difference, but even more so when I started to understand how to REALLY use it.

Ideal Home Recording Studio Set-up

.: Basic Recording Studio

Building a home studio is preferred. This way, you can work from home and record at your convenience. You can set your own hours and also have the flexibility to record custom auditions for clients. Although purchasing a home studio is a considerable financial investment, it is better in the long-term and will save you time, resources, and money, particularly when you have to record revisions for a client.

.: PC Computers

Minimum recording requirements for PC

Personal Computer
*Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent Processor
*Windows 2000 / Windows XP
*iTunes 4.9 for PC
*1 GB of available disk space
*512 MB of RAM
*Audio Line In and Audio Line Out

.: Microphones

Whether you are using a Mac or PC, you will need a microphone to record your voice into your computer. One option is to purchase a microphone ( or you may already have one ) with a 1/8th inch jack. This is the size of the jack or audio line in port on your personal computer.
