prescription for great skin. The skin like other organs in the body needs proper nutrients. Because the skin is the last organ to receive nutrients, it is all the more important to eat a nutrient rich diet for skin health and repair. A healthy diet assists in healing acne and brings elasticity back to the skin thereby preventing or reducing wrinkles. A diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables is key. You need to eat some raw foods daily. Especially helpful are dark green leafy vegetables, such as spinach and kale. But, all fresh vegetables and fruits will improve skin appearance and health. The fresher the food the more nutrient rich it is.

Silica for Skin.

Silica is a mineral found in high concentration in babies after they are born. Some studies have shown the ratio of silica to calcium is an indicator for youthfulness. Aging and poor diet contribute to depletion of silica in the body. Collagen, which gives skin its youth look, consists mostly of silica. Collagen increases skin elasticity. Silica also helps with moisture retention. It improves skin texture and aids in healing acne. Foods rich in silica are cucumbers (especially the peel), bell peppers, tomatoes, green leafy vegetables, beets, Not That Old And Loving It!

oats, and radishes. Tap water in some areas also has silica in it.

Because silica supplementation can upset the balance of other minerals and vitamins in the body, silica supplements should be taken under the supervision of a healthcare practitioner. It is best to get silica from foods or water.

Cold Water Skin Sensation.

Legend has it that Paul Newman submerged his face in ice-cold water every morning for thirty seconds or more to keep his skin taut and smooth. It seems to have worked as he had great skin even into his later years.

Cold water is the best and least expensive toner you can use.

For those with acne, rinsing with cold water helps to reduce inflammation and inhibits the spread of bacteria. It is also a good idea never to wash your face with hot water. Tepid or cool water with a gentle cleanser is best. Some people like to submerge their face in cold water for several seconds. Here is another technique. Fill the sink with very cold water. Place a washcloth in the cup of both Not That Old And Loving It!

palms. Bend over the sink; fill the cupped washcloth with water by scooping it into the sink. Bring the washcloth your face. Do this several times until your face feels chilled. Apply moisturizer.

Omega 3’s Skin Importance.

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for body functions, however the body does not make them. This means omega-3’s must be had from foods. Omega 3’s helps the skin in many ways. They have anti-inflammatory properties, so they help to heal and repair skin damage. Omega-3’s reduce inflammation in skin conditions, such as acne, eczema, and psoriasis. The fatty acids in omega 3’s moisturize the skin from the inside out. Fish is high in omega 3’s, especially sardines and salmon. It can also be found in walnuts, flaxseed, brussels sprouts, chia seeds, dark green leafy vegetables, quinoa, and cauliflower. Omega 3’s are also available in supplemental form either as fish oil, flaxseed oil, or omega 3 oil.

Water the Skin.

The skin needs to be watered from the inside out. Drink water throughout the day. Water keeps the skin hydrated. Water also aids in the removal of toxins from the body and in the distribution of nutrients. When toxins build up, they can manifest on the Continued on pg. 8

Meditate for Healthy Skin.

Meditation helps by reducing stress. Stress is an emotional reaction that gets reflected Happy Holidays in the body. Everyone is familiar with pimple breakouts after a stressful period. Stress also causes skin to look haggard, drawn, and contributes to wrinkles. Meditating fifteen minutes twice a day helps to bring the body back into a homeostasis state. When the body

is stable, it functions optimally. Cells easily regenerate; toxins are efficiently removed, and nutrients get delivered throughout the entire body. If the body uses its available nutrients to combat stress, the skin suffers as a result.

This is a special concern for anyone with a skin condition or with skin damage. There are many links and videos online that teach how to meditate and some are guided meditations.

Exercise to Energize the Skin.

When you exercise, it brings fresh oxygenated blood to the skin. It energizes the skin by bringing nutrient rich blood to the cells for renewal and aids in the reduction of inflammation.

Vitamin C is one of the nutrients necessary for collagen production. It is vital for replenishing mature, dry, or compromised skin. Vitamin C reduces the onset of wrinkles, removes fine lines, age spots, offers UV protection, heals scars, and other damaged skin tissue, such as pimples. Citrus fruits are known as a good source for vitamin C, but so are papaya, pineapple, bell peppers, broccoli, and cantaloupe.

Not That Old And Loving It!

Stay Away from . . . for Skin Beauty.

So far the discussion has been on what actions to take to improve skin and to keep it healthy.

However, it is just as important to know what to stay away from in order to have great skin.

Smoking, alcohol, sugar, fast foods, processed food, carbonated beverages, and excessive caffeine all have detrimental affects on the skin. These items have little or no nutrient value. And worse, the body uses its resources to fight against their carcinogenic effect. Resources it could use to keep skin healthy or to heal skin.

The secret to beautiful skin is having a healthy lifestyle. It includes a nutrient rich diet, staying hydrated, proper cleansing through exfoliation, exercise, stress reduction, and proper sleep. Great skin also takes the reduction or elimination of substances that offer no benefit to the body. + Not That Old And Loving It!

Auto Insurance Home Improvement & Lifestyle Shopping Tips for Seniors Simply Savers Feedback

If you’re like many senior citizens, your auto insurance bill can eat up a large chunk of your monthly budget. But with recent studies showing auto accident and death rates f Events among senior citizens dropping by over 40% Calendar Of Events between 1997 and 2012, being an older driver no longer holds the stigma it once did. This means it pays to shop around and find the Remembering best deal on auto insurance for your Nevada needs.

Here are some tips and tricks for finding car insurance with the right amount of coverage-without breaking the bank. Happy Holidays

Shop Around

Many seniors stick with the same auto insurance carrier for years, simply to avoid the time and hassle of comparison shopping.

But the reality is, shopping around can actually save you hundreds of dollars over the course of a single year. Luckily, the Internet has made the process of comparison shopping much easier. Jot down your current information and hit the Web to see if you can get equal or better coverage for less than what you’re currently paying.

Ask About Discounts

Not every auto insurance website will have a complete list of all the discounts they offer.

10 Simply55+ July

2018

Depending on the carrier and the state or country you live, senior drivers can often see discounts of as much as 5 or 10%. What’s more, if you are a member of a retirement community, senior club, driving club, collectors club, or many other organizations, (or if you’re a retired member of the military) you may be entitled to even more discounts. Don’t hesitate to call up different auto insurance companies and ask about whether you are eligible for any other discounts or special rates and services.

Reevaluate Your Car and Mileage

If you’ve had the same insurance for years, you may be paying for mileage you don’t use anymore. If you are no longer commuting to work every day, or if your kids no longer need you to shuffle them to school and practice, contact your auto insurance and adjust your monthly estimated mileage rates.

It’s also worth reevaluating your coverage if your car has gotten older and isn’t worth what it once was. Insurance companies most often will not pay more than your car’s worth in repairs. Which means those driving a car Not That Old And Loving It!

only worth a couple thousand dollars should adjust their coverage accordingly.

Stay Claim Free

Of course, the best way to keep your car insurance rates as low as possible is to maintain a claim-free record. Drive carefully, wear your seatbelt at all times, take a defensive driver course, and keep all eyewear and hearing aids up to date. Avoid distractions like cell phones when driving, and stay within safe driving speeds to minimize your chances of an auto accident, and then contact your insurance about good driver discounts.

You might be surprised at just how much taking these simple steps can save you in the long run. You’ve racked up a lot of experience over the years. Why shouldn’t that add up to savings whenever possible? +

Once you visit Santa Barbara, you never want to leave. As a native of Texas, I found this out the hard way. Acknowledged as “the trap” by locals, it’s not difficult to understand why this utopia of natural beauty and year-round sunshine lures people in to stay. The truth is, Santa Barbara contradicts itself in the best ways possible. It’s luxurious without being pompous; it’s relaxed, yet elegant. Taking a stroll in downtown Santa Barbara, you can feel the vibrancy of a big city, but also a certain small town charm. Beauty aside, this balance is what makes Santa Barbara so unique. It’s not just another quaint coastal town that’s nice to look at—it’s a genuine, friendly city with a lot to offer.

Red tile roofs, palm trees, and Spanish colonial

architecture make up the iconic Santa Barbara style and create a scenic downtown area with a peaceful atmosphere. Downtown consists of the lower half of State Street, a seven-mile stretch of fine dining and shopping that is the vein of the city around which everything is clustered. In fact, State Street eventually runs all the way out into the ocean via Stearns Wharf—a pier featuring seafood restaurants, shops, and the Ty Warner Sea Center, where touch tanks allow the rare opportunity to pet actual sharks.

If you’d rather eat seafood than mingle with live sea predators, luckily there are plenty of delicious options mere steps away. Brophy Bros provides an unbeatable view of the Harbor and Santa Ynez mountains coupled Continued on pg. 14

For French flair, Bouchon is an intimate downtown pick that won’t disappoint. A short but calculated seasonal menu ensures only the highest quality ingredients make the cut.

It’s easy to be overfed in Santa Barbara, but surprisingly there are as many activities as there are delicious restaurants. Golf aficionados should not miss playing a round at Santa Barbara’s own Pebble Beach—also known as Sandpiper Golf Club. It might be hard to focus on alignment, however, as deer gracefully bob in and out of trees, waves crash into bluffs below, and you are perpetually tempted to observe the unobstructed view of the glistening Pacific ahead. As the sun begins to set a fiery orange and royal purple hue, good luck tearing your eyes away.

After an afternoon of sightseeing and activities, visiting such places as the beautiful Santa Barbara Mission, the SB County Courthouse, the Zoo, or renting a bike and riding along an oceanside trail—a glass of wine might be in the cards. Santa Barbara wine country may have first gained notoriety in the film Sideways, but it continues to succeed today as a bountiful winemaking region. Take a tour of one of the many vineyards just outside Santa Barbara proper, and experience the breathtaking scenery that is golden, rolling hills of microclimates—each vineyard fostering a myriad of grapes to grow to their full potential under the Central Coast sunshine.

If time is limited, there is no need to sacrifice wine tasting from a tight schedule. The Santa Barbara Urban Wine Trail offers just what the name suggests: tasting rooms downtown.

Benefits of Professional AC Repair

Calendar Of Events

Calendar Of Events The heating and cooling equipment in your home is a highly sophisticated system of parts Remembering Nevada that have to work together to safely and efficiently cool your home. A system that is not functioning properly will:

Happy Holidays

• Cost you money in wasted energy and higher utility bills.

• Quickly wear out much more expensive parts.

• Be a hazard to your home and family.

There are many tasks that the average doit-yourself homeowner can tackle on their own, but AC repair isn’t one of them. Making a mistake on AC repair, or delaying a needed repair because you didn’t know what you were looking at or hearing can lead to costly problems later on.

Using a certified HVAC expert to handle your AC repairs and maintenance has the benefit of having someone knowledgeable and qualified to work on your specific system and problem. Let’s face it, most people don’t call for an AC repair until something goes wrong. And when that happens, you need someone who will replace the right parts quickly and stand behind their work.

22 Simply55+ July

2018

Something as simple as a clogged filter can quickly wear out your fan motor which is an expensive repair.

Your AC system consists of several different pieces of equipment that have to work together properly to cool your home, including: • The compressor and condenser, which is the large unit outside your home which draws hot air outside your home, pressurizes the refrigerant, and sends the refrigerant up to the inside unit.

• The evaporator, coils and fan is the unit that sits in your attic, basement or closet, which cools the air and blows it through your ducts.

• The ducts are the system of pipes that carry the cold air through your home and pull warm air back into the system.

Not That Old And Loving It!

Sound complicated? It is, and that is why AC repair is not something you want to tackle on your own.

Another advantage of using a professional is they are familiar with not only the latest technology, but the latest safety and zoning rules and regulations. Both the indoor and outdoor units of your AC system contain electric and possible gas components that can be hazardous if not worked on with the proper knowledge and tools. In addition, you don’t want to make an alteration that conflicts with local zoning and licensing ordinances. You may get away with it now, but it will become a big problem if you try to sell your home.

Once you hire a professional to perform your AC repair, another advantage will be employing them to perform regular maintenance, cleaning and systems checks on your equipment. This is a relatively minor charge that will ensure that your system is working at full capacity and efficiency and avoid further repairs down the road. During a regular maintenance appointment, your certified HVAC expert will be responsible for: • • • •

• Dirty and dusty coils reduce cooling capacity.

• A clogged filter will burn out your fan.

• A clogged condensation drain pipe can cause expensive water damage, especially with a unit installed inside your home or attic.

Of course, you can and should change your own filters to keep your AC running at top efficiency and remove harmful dust and other microbes from your home. But this is an easy thing to forget and doing so can create health problems for your family and expensive repairs to your air conditioner. Having this as part of an annual maintenance plan by your professional HVAC contractor will make sure that this simple task gets done at least twice a year, although once every three months is advised.

If your air conditioner just isn’t keeping your house as cool as it used to, or any part of the system is making a noise you haven’t heard before, don’t wait until it’s too late. Call a professional, licensed and qualified AC repair company today and get the job done right the first time. +

Checking and replacing your coolant.

Cleaning the coils.

Making sure drain lines are clear.

Checking and replacing the filters.

These are simple tasks the professional AC repair person can perform, all of which will save you money later.

How much dirt and dust is in your attic or basement where your AC fan is installed? If you don’t like going in there and breathing all that dust, think how your AC unit feels. Ignoring this can lead to other problems: Not That Old And Loving It!
