Your skin is your largest organ so it is important what you put on it. I am very careful about what I eat. I do not eat processed foods. I do not eat sugar. I eat a lot of organics and fruits and vegetables are a large part of my daily diet. Because I try so hard to take good care of myself on the inside, I have recently decided to make it a priority to find skin care products that are of the same quality as the foods I eat myself and I feed my family.

iDerma offers scientifically advanced skin care products that include anti-aging products, moisturizing creams, cleansers, sunscreens, mineral makeup, and much more.

Definitely worth a look…the founder of iDerma, Dr. Gregory Nikolaidis, has made this product line an exceptional one.

Tip #9: Get into nature

Wherever you end up…be sure to find a park, beach, lake, or forest where you can relax and soak up some nature. Getting outside and breathing the fresh air can make a big difference in your stress level.  Make a point to get into nature wherever you go.

Also, open your hotel room curtains before you go to sleep so that the morning light comes through and resets your circadian rhythm.  This makes sure that you are in sync with the local time. This is a therapeutic use of light and is key to getting your body in sync with reality. If your hotel room is pitch dark your brain will never get the signal that it’s time to produce those “wake me up hormones!”

Tip #8: Stay active!

Staying active is key to staying healthy on any trip — and not for the reasons you may suspect. One of the best advantages of exercise while away from home is that your body sweats out toxins. This will eliminate toxic chemicals through your sweat glands.

The key here is not necessarily to work your heart or muscles, but to sweat as much as possible while you replenish your body with healthy fluids.

Of course, exercise also reduces stress and enhances your mood.  That tends to make your travel a lot more enjoyable.

A new breakthrough patent pending active ingredient has been discovered that boosts the production of human skin stem cells, protects human skin stem cells from stress, and decreasing wrinkles thereby producing younger, fresher looking skin.

Sound interesting? I thought so!

It’s called Emerge Skin Care Swiss Apple Stem Cell Serum and it promises to be the breakthrough that will win the war against aging.

It is created from a rare Swiss apple, paraben free, and never tested on animals.

Scientific Breakthrough! Plant Stem Cells Protect Skin Stem Cells!

Emerge Labs fights age with science with their new Swiss Apple Stem Cell Serum

Emerge Labs presents a revolutionary technology that protects skin stem cells and combats chronological aging. The breakthrough patent pending active ingredient, PhytoCellTec Malus Domsestica, boosts the production of human skin stem cells, protects human skin stem cells from stress, thus decreasing wrinkles and producing younger, fresher looking skin.

Using a novel, patent-pending plant cell culture technology, Emerge Labs introduces PhytoCellTec - dedifferentiated callus cells from a rare Swiss apple that studies show protect skin stem cells thus promoting self-renewal capacity of the skin. Apple stem cells are rich in epigenetic factors and metabolites that assure the longevity of skin cells. The application of plant cell cultures to maintain the function of skin stem cells is a breakthrough in anti-aging.

Emerge Labs is the brainchild of skincare guru, Cleo Londono, the director of Metamorphosis Day Spa in New York City.

Tip #7: Seek out the healthiest food you can find

Once you arrive at your destination, don’t run to the local all-you-can-eat processed food bar.  Find a Whole Foods or even just a regular grocery store so you can buy some fresh produce. Even if you can’t find organic, just get something fresh. Non-organic produce is still better than anything processed.

Even without a refrigerator,  you can still load up on oranges, melons and a few fresh items that will last a day or two without refrigeration. For those times when I’m completely out of fresh produce options, I like to buy almond milk and puffed kamut cereal, then I stir some SunWarrior protein into a bowl of kamut to make a high-protein cereal snack. It isn’t raw, and it’s not fresh, but it’s not bad for food on the road. It certainly beats the $15 scrambled eggs offered by your hotel’s room service menu (which are probably scrambled on Teflon pans, by the way…)
