| |
|
| Please tell me how to remove blackheads? |
|
| Himalaya Herbals' Acne-n-Pimple
Cream may be helpful for getting rid of pimples and blackheads. |
|
| |
|
| Do you have
anything called a Mud Pack and what is its advantage? |
|
| Clarifying Mud Pack is used for oily skin
and helps in tightening skin pores. It is launched along
with Refreshing Fruit Pack for dry skin. |
|
| |
|
| I have darkish,
patchy skin. Please advise? |
|
| Himalaya's Fairness
Cream evens skin tone, making skin soft, smooth & toned. |
|
| |
|
| Do you have
anything for pigmentation? |
|
| This occurs due
to uneven accumulation of melanin pigment in the epidermis. Sunlight
stimulates melanin production, which manifests as freckles on the
sun-exposed areas. Hyperpigmentation also occurs due to chronic inflammation,
especially following long-term acne and severe-grade acne.
Hyperpigmentation also occurs due to hormonal imbalance in the
reproductive age.
- The best approach to management would be to have a balanced
and high-protein diet with an adequate amount of Vit. A
- Keep the facial skin clean, avoid harsh soaps
- Treat acne lesions and take preventive measures. Clarina
plays a vital role in prophylaxis in severe acne
- Irregularities of menstrual cycles should be taken care with
appropriate gynecological advice
- Avoid over exposure to sun and heat
- Purim
is recommended in all the types of hyperpigmentation. Since Purim
improves metabolic functions of the liver, it is advisable to
take the same before or during meals
|
 |
| |
|
| Are there any
medicines for dark circles? |
|
| These may be just
due to lack of sleep, heavy work or exertion. Aging also produces
dark circles. Sluggish liver and chronic allergies also produce dark
circles.
Advise the following:
- Cold compresses regularly, at least once daily
- Use appropriate moisturizers or moisturizing lotions
- A high-fiber diet
- Anti-Wrinkle
Cream for older women
|
|
| |
|
| How can stubborn
acne be treated? |
|
|
This is a form of chronic and refractory disorder that requires
long-term treatment. It is most important to control infections
in acne lesions. Corynebacterium acne is a vulnerable microbe that
responds to antibiotics.
|
 |
| |
|
| Hair Care |
|
| |
|
| My hair is growing
gray. Can you help me? |
|
| Gray hair is a sign of aging,
and premature graying of hair is mostly caused by hereditary. The
reason that hair turns gray is that the hair follicle looses the ability
to pigment the hair with age. The age at which this occurs tends to
run in families. Amalaki
1 capsule twice a day, may help to delay the process of graying. Good
scalp massage with Revitalizing Hair
Oil also helps. |
 |
| |
|
| Weight Reduction |
|
| How do I lose
weight? |
|
| Loss of weight in terms of inches
as well as pounds will be observed depending on the amount of superficial
or deep-seated fat in the body. Each person's build varies and therefore
the responses also vary. Sustained weight loss can only be achieved
with a change in lifestyle. Any drastic weight loss is followed by
the body gaining it all back over a period of time. What is most effective
is to cut your food intake by 40 per cent, drink not less than eight
glasses of water a day and go for some form of exercise at least 5
days a week. A brisk walk is something most people are able to stick
to on a daily basis. Anything too strenuous is usually not advisable
since your body just gets plain worn out and you tend to quit. As
for the type of food, eat everything but with a 40 per cent reduction.
Denial of certain foods only leads to frustration and eventual lapsing.
If obesity is genetic, or due to metabolic disorders, the formulation
Ayurslim Capsules may not be helpful. |
 |
| |
|
| How does AyurSlim
help? |
|
| AyurSlim Capsules
helps you lose weight, burns excess fat, reduces cholesterol and triglyceride levels. It is natural
and completely safe. |
|
| |
|
| Rheumatic Disorders and Pain Control |
|
| I have chronic
backache. What do you advise? |
|
| Rumalaya
cream and Rumalaya
forte tablets may be helpful for this condition. Application of
Himalaya Herbals' Pain
Massage Oil with hot fomentation may also help relieve back pain. |
