Trying to Conceive? Take Folic Acid

Nope, taking folic acid doesn’t help you to conceive but I’ve read that if you take folic acid even before pregnancy, then it will prevent brain defects for your future baby. That’s why when we were already planning to have a baby, I was already consuming about 400 micrograms (400 mcg or 0.4 mg) of folic acid daily.  Then when I got pregnant, my folic acid dosage was increased and is already included in my prenatal vitamins. And true enough, my baby came out very healthy and strong.

Sleep!

I tried Oil of Olay. I tried Clearasil. I tried the Renow D Cream. But to no avail, my pimples are back with a vengance! LOL!  So, what’s the best acne treatment? I still don’t have an answer. But I think these breakouts are caused by my late nights doing my online work. So, I better sleep now to prevent further breakouts and skin problems. Good night!

We still have the Virgin Coconut Oil that my Mom gave me the last time she came here. This oil has been proven very effective in hair treatment. I remember applying this oil to my hair before and it indeed lessen my hair fall. My mom in law also used this before and she told me that her white hair has also lessened. I wonder if this oil is also effective as hair loss products for women . Anyways, I’ve heard of a lot of uses for VCO and they even say that it can also make you lose weight.
