The Anti-Aging Chronicle - Anti-Aging News, Product Reviews, and More!

When searching for the best oil free anti-aging facial moisturizer, you will want to pay attention to the ingredients on the label. The reason is that not all oils are bad for your skin, but many commonly used ingredients are. You will want a product that is non pore-clogging, or "non-comedogenic", as it is called. Certain natural oils are actually wonderful for your face as a moisturizer, even if you are looking for something that is oil free because you are battling acne, rosacea, or oily skin in general. In fact, just because you suffer from one of these conditions doesn’t mean you don’t need some of the anti aging and anti inflammatory properties of a good moisturizer product. You just have to understand what to look for.

First of all, you will want to avoid any oil that is petroleum based. Mineral oil or lanolin, for example, are known to cause breakouts in some people. Mineral oil is a common ingredient in many products because it is inexpensive, but it actually isn’t good for you. There are many superior natural moisturizers and emollients, especially for those looking for an oil free product.

One thing to look for is Babassu oil or wax, a very lightweight ingredient that is easily absorbed into the skin, without any pore-clogging activity. It comes from the Babassu palm from the Brazilian Amazon, and it has been used for centuries to soothe skin. It works great on oily complexions as a gentle moisturizer. This all natural ingredient has many wonderful benefits.

An excellent emollient is Maracuja passion fruit extract. It contains a natural essential fatty acid that revitalizes and restores a velvety soft complexion. It’s also known to regulate the production of oil or sebum. This is a great choice for an oil free product.

When it comes to anti aging moisturizers, you will also need some ingredients that both protect from further damage, as well as boost the growth of new collagen and elastin. These are the two proteins that are important for a youthful complexion, with firmer texture. Antioxidants battle free radical damage, which are responsible for wrinkles, age spots, and cellular damage that causes aging signs to appear. One of the best ingredients for regeneration of collagen and elastin is Cynergy TK, and one of the best potent natural antioxidant ingredients is Phytessence Wakame. For a dramatic anti wrinkle ingredient, look for Nano-Lipobelle H EQ10. All of these anti-aging moisturizer ingredients have been proven in scientific studies to reduce or reverse common signs of aging.

The next time you are shopping for an oil free anti-aging facial moisturizer, just read the label carefully. I prefer using all natural ingredients that are safe. Don’t avoid moisturizers and oils just because you have acne or oily skin, just be sure to get the right ingredients that will work for you.

The skin is the largest organ on the human body. It functions and has needs like any other organ in the body. The being on the outside of the body has other issues that need to be dealt with.

Some are like soap and suds up to clean off the face. Others are like an astringent and are wiped on the face to give a quick cleansing. These two can be used together to keep the face as clean as it can be.

Cleansers and soaps are used for skin care and for basic hygiene. Soap is used all over the body to make sure the body is clean and sanitary. Soap will wash off all of the dirt and bacteria that is on the body. Cleansers are used on the face for the same purpose as face. They have additives to help clean the face, to moisturize the skin and to clean out the pores to fight any acne that may be there.

Facial masks and peels are used on the face as another way to clean the face and to keep the skin healthy. The mask is applied all over the face. It is then left on the face for 10-15 minutes to harden. Once the time is up and the mask is dry, it is removed. In removing the mask all of the dead skin and bacteria will come off the face as well leaving the skin clean and fresh.

Each week CDC analyzes information about influenza disease activity in the United States and publishes findings of key flu indicators in a report called FluView. During the week of January 24-30, 2010, most key flu indicators remained about the same as during the previous week. Below is a summary of the most recent key indicators:

• Visits to doctors for influenza-like illness (ILI) nationally are low.  ILI is also looked at by Region. Of 10 regions in the United States, ILI declined or remained about the same, except for in one region of the country. In Region 10 (Arkansas, Oregon, Idaho and Washington), ILI activity increased, but still remains low overall.

• Overall cumulative hospitalization rates for the 2009-10 influenza season have leveled off in all age groups and very few 2009 H1N1-laboratory confirmed hospitalizations were reported by states during the week ending January 3o.

• The proportion of deaths attributed to pneumonia and influenza (P&I) based on the 122 Cities Report decreased slightly over the previous week, but is still higher than expected for this time of year.

• No states reported widespread influenza activity. Six states reported regional influenza activity. They are: Alabama, Georgia, Maine, New Jersey, New Mexico and Virginia. Almost all of the influenza viruses identified so far continue to be 2009 H1N1 influenza A viruses.

Texas State University and Orizon Research Institute announced the signing of an agreement today that will permit University Researchers to continue efforts through in vivo testing to further determine the potential and effectiveness of ALKA-V6, a compound which has shown remarkable ability to kill cancer cells and inhibit the HIV virus in laboratory experiments.

The research will evaluate the effects of ALKA-V6 on animal organisms, and will be highly replicated with the goal of moving knowledge about the compound toward eventual FDA approval.

Dr. Troy Chesnut, Managing Member of Orizon Research Institute, stated, “We are excited to move our research from artificial laboratory systems to animal organisms. These next 18 months of research should confirm previous studies and provide more answers about this promising product.”

The prelude from the Texas State University research proposal addresses the reasons for optimism about the product.  “ALKA-V6 is a modified value-added silicon compound……This product has been imputed to have several health benefits including anti-microbial activity, bone remodeling and joint health promoting functions as well as chemotherapeutic benefits against cancer and viral infections….In response to numerous testimonials/case studies, empirical evidence and written personal and contractual statements about the putative cancer reducing and alleviation in symptoms associated with several viral diseases, we previously evaluated the anticancer and anti-HIV effects in in vitro models.

Our results largely corroborated the empirical observations and many in vitro model systems.  ALKA-V6 proved highly effective in mitigating causative factors and conditions that promote cancer and HIV infections.  ALKA-V6 was extremely effective in preventing sodium azide induced mutations, cancer cell survival, and cancer cell adhesion.  In addition, at very low concentrations, ALKA-V6 was also very effective in promoting apoptosis, preventing free radical mediated DNA damage, activating free radical neutralizing systems such as glutathione, superoxide dismutase and catalase.

ALKA-V6 was also very effective in its antiviral activities, and at very low doses it was highly effective in inhibiting viral transcription and replication.  In addition, it was also very effective in reducing viral cell attachment and ability of the virus to evade the immune system.
In spite of these scientifically proven effects, most of these studies have been conducted in in vitro systems…..

…Systematic studies need to be conducted in in vivo systems to decipher the genetic and physiological mechanism of action, determine the effective dosages for health promoting activity…..End point measurements as related to modulation of genetic and metabolic pathways relevant to anti-metastatic and anti-retroviral effects are imperative to completely establish the functionality of ALKA-V6 in promoting homeostasis….

The results from this phase of testing may also result in scientific acceptance of the product as an effective alternative/complementary tool for management and prevention of different diseases.”

Orizon Research Institute of Odessa, Texas is the international distributor of ALKA V-6. Orizon remains committed to providing the ALKA-V6 compound to the general public as an affordably priced nutritional supplement that can be purchased directly from the company web site. The phase 1 ALKA-V6 research study conducted at Texas State is also available on the Orizon Research web site at www.orizonresearch.com.

Many women want to know what is the best wrinkle cream to use. However, you have to ask yourself a few things first. How much are you looking to spend on this wrinkle cream? Do you want a certain brand of product? Are you a person who likes to try many different options and find the best solution yourself? Because you have a ton of products out there to look at.

Also it depends a lot of the times on who you ask to what answer you will get to that question too. Some people may have a favorite brand name that they like to stick with, so they will obviously be picking that choice. Finding an unbiased review is your best answer when it comes to finding the best cream to help with wrinkles.

Not all products that are rated top of the list on one persons list will work for all people. So you need to read and look and try out several of these products. Comparing them for yourselves and deciding just how much you want to pay on one of them. Because the prices can be very expensive on some of these items.

Another choice of creams that you have would be Dermitage. With two ingredients that are said to help fight off the start of wrinkles. Those two ingredients would be rejuvaline, and microcollagen. Again this is a very expensive item for many to be able to afford. Some of the chemicals that are used it this product may end up causing problems with allergic reactions in some.

But they do have a thirty day free trial that you can try out, and it has been test and proven to work. A very simple system to use for people and does work well in help with those who are worried about aging.

Still going up again in price you find the option of Prototype #37-C. One of the products out there that has 99 percent peptides in the ingredients. That is said to be one of the best ingredients when it comes to fighting wrinkles. But there haven’t really been test done that have show just how effective this product is.

Finally, a choice that will be well within reach of many people’s budgets is Princess Livia Bee Pollen and Nectar Cream. This uses that power that has been shown in that of nature’s own bee pollen. In testing it did help people achieve smoother skin, but those deeper wrinkles were not helped out.

Many other choices are out there to consider, all in different price ranges too. One is Dermajuv, but since its application process is done in three steps it isn’t necessarily a favorite of many. Also an offer of a product produced by Made from Earth that has a very decent price .

In closing, really the best way to find the wrinkle cream that is the best out on the market is to try some of them. Find out by using them yourself to see that you don’t have any allergic reactions to them.
