Best Home Remedies for Dandruff





DANDRUFF IS a common problem. All of us have suffered from the problem at one time or the other. In its mild form, dandruff consists of loose white flakes that fall off. At times, the flakes may be yellow in colour. Even mild dandruff causes itching.

What Causes Dandruff?

Dandruff is caused by naturally occurring processes within the body. As skin is naturally shed from the scalp, it occasionally becomes noticeable. Sufferers may notice flakes in their hair or on their clothing, and may cause the scalp to itch which is a condition known as seborrhea. Dandruff is typically caused by the overproduction of oil or sebum in the sebaceous glands of the scalp. These are the glands that make oil and that work to assist the body in shedding dead skin. When someone has dandruff, their sebaceous glands are overactive, and they tend to shed more skin than the typical person. Dandruff can also be caused by a naturally occurring yeast fungus known as pityrosporum ovale. While this yeast fungus is not uncommon, if an individual has an overabundance of this fungus within the body, dandruff can develop. The unsightly condition can also be caused by psoriasis or excessive dryness.

Ways To Keep Your Skin Healthy As we age, we begin to understand the importance of taking care of our bodies. The same goes for our skin. To care for our skin means to enhance its healthy appearance. Sun Isn’t As Healthy As You Think The biggest thing you can do is protecting yourself from the sun. Think about it-yes your skin is at the mercy of everyday elements, but the most inevitable is the sun.

Best Natural Remedies For a Flat Tummy                                                                               Works for Everyone People store most of their fat in two ways – one you can see and one you can't. The fat you can see is just under the skin in the thighs, hips, buttocks, and abdomen. That's called subcutaneous (under the skin) fat. The fat you can't see is deeper inside, around the vital organs (heart, lungs, digestive tract, liver, and so on) in the chest, abdomen, and pelvis. That's called "visceral" fat. Many people are self-conscious about the fat they can see. But actually, it's the hidden fat -- the visceral fat -- that may be a bigger problem, even for thin people.  But even if you're thin, you can still have too much visceral fat. It's partly about your genes. Some people have a genetic tendency to store visceral fat. It's also about physical activity. Visceral fat likes inactivity. A British st
