DRIVING SUN GLASSES. EAGLE EYE SUNGLASSES WITH NASA PST LENS. Conventional sunglasses can actually blur or even harm your vision by allowing harmful UV rays in, whilst indiscriminately blocking out the useful, vision-enhancing light rays so reducing visibility, clarity, definition and shadow perception especially when driving in bright sunlight. In addition, exposure of the eyes whilst driving into harmful glare and high intensity glints of sunlight can cause localised areas on the retina of the eye to receive dangerously high doses of light. EAGLE EYE SUNGLASSES are the most advanced sunglasses ever, incorporating the unique Polarised Selective Transmission lens, PST developed by the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratories based on studies of the physiology of eagle???s eyes. Most birds have keen eyesight but eagles and hawks are said to have the keenest eyesight of all. Eagles and hawks can sight their prey while soaring high in the air, capable of seeing fish in the water from several hundred feet above, while soaring, gliding, or in flapping flight or identify a rabbit moving almost a mile away! The filtering system of EAGLE EYE SUNGLASSES are designed along the same principles as an eagle or hawk???s eyes, which contain tiny droplets of oil that filter out all harmful radiation, reduce the scattering of light and transmit only those wavelengths of light that allow eagles and hawks to have their amazing visual clarity free of chromatic aberration (blue light haze) even in blinding sunlight! EAGLE EYES SUNGLASSES lenses incorporate a unique fluid, that simulates the retinal fluid of eagles??? and hawks??? eyes, not only blocking out 100% of the harmful UVA and UVB rays, but also 99% of blue and violet wavelengths to provide a protection, safety and visual acuity for drivers that???s second to none! Next time you go out driving when its bright and sunny, slip on a pair of stunningly designed EAGLE EYE SUNGLASSES and you will be amazed. Everything is more vivid and sharper. You???ll immediately notice that your eyes are more comfortable and relaxed and you???ll feel no need to squint, and even in dazzling and blinding sunlight the eyes remain safe and protected and vision sharp and glare and glint free.

SUN SNOW...AND YOUR SKIN. If you are chasing the sun and snow this winter, don't forget to cover up. Even though it feels cold in the ski resorts, the higher up that yo go the less atmosphere there is to filter the UV rays. In fact, UV intensity increases by 4-5% every 1000 feet so at the top os some snowcapped mountains, the suns rays are around 40-50% more intense than at sea level. Its easy to burn quickly in this environment especially around midday and snowboarders and kiers can easily get caught out and put themselves at risk of skin cancer. For best protection the SUNBRELLA JASON SUN CARE collection, a complete range of suncare products ranging from SPF 20 to SPF 46. that allows you to select the level of protection that is right for your skin.

THE IMPORTANCE OF HAND HYGIENE. FAST FACT! Before you settle into your mouth watering burger, kebab, ice cream, cream cake or crisps spare a thought as to what might be lurking on your hands. Just imagine someone with an infection using a door handle or a hanging strap on a bus or train, or even the office phone just before you! You cant isolate yourself from the rest of the world but you can take a simple precaution when handling food especially when no washroom facilities are available. Carry a small tube of natural ASSEPTGEL and whenever you are about to handle food squeeze a drop of the gel on to your hands and rub it in. ASSEPTGEL not only sanitises your hands leaving them hygienically clean, but leaves you hands feeling smooth and lightly fragranced and free of unwanted fishy, cigarette and other odours.

Take special care to protect children from the sun and keep babies out of it completely.

DRIVING SUN GLASSES. EAGLE EYE SUNGLASSES WITH PST LENSES. HOW WELL CAN YOU SEE TO DRIVE IN BRIGHT DAZZLING SUNLIGHT? An aspect of road safety that garners little attention is bright sunlight. Just imagine trying to pick out a cyclist when your windscreen is smeary and outside is an explosion of dazzling rays! Especially when you might be turning a corner to change direction or driving over the brow of a hill and you are suddenly confronted by penetrating, blinding sunlight momentarily obliterating vision. You find yourself driving blind, a situation just as deadly as driving in thick fog! Many terms are used to describe this, from disability glare, veiling glare, sun blindness or sun dazzle. The effect is the same, blinding the driver by ‘washing out' all images on the retina with a bright overwhelming spot of light! EAGLE EYE SUNGLASSES developed by NASA have a unique PST lens designed along the same principles as eagle or hawk's eyes, which contain tiny droplets of oil that filter out all harmful radiation, reduce the scattering of light and transmit only those wavelengths of light that allow eagles to have their amazing visual clarity free of chromatic aberration (blue light haze) and glare and glinting even in blinding sunlight! The PST lens developed by NASA scientists and engineers incorporates a special fluid, that simulates the retinal fluid of eagles and hawk, providing protection, safety and visual acuity that's second to none! The lens not only blocks out 100% of the harmful UVA and UVB rays but also 99% of blue and violet wavelengths as well as glare and the high intensity glints of sunlight which cause localised areas on the retina of the eye to receive dangerously high doses of light so that even in intense sunlight, with EAGLE EYE SUNGLASSES the eyes remain safe and protected and vision sharp, cutting out glare, enhancing contrast and throwing images into sharper focus.

PREVENT TRAVELLERS DIARRHOEA. Travellers Diarrhoea has to be one of the most unpleasant holiday ailments which at best can be an inconvenience and at worst can completey ruin that well deserved holiday break. Partially cooked or prepared food, a change in drinking water, poor hygiene standards, bad, spoilt or especially spicy food can all have a profoundly disturbing effect on the intestines. But there are a number of things you can do to help prevent or alleviate Travellers Diarrhoea. Probiotics provide strains of beneficial bacteria which are often found in yogurt or in a more potent form in powders or capsules such as FERZYM PROBIOTIC and PREBIOTIC CAPSULES or LEPICOL POWDER SACHETS. These bacteria can help to destroy or control harmful organisms such as parasites and bad bacteria and can improve intestinal function. Taken two to four weeks before travelling and throughout the trip probiotics could help prevent anyone falling prey to this debilitating condition. If you are unlucky enough to be the victim of Travellers Diarrhoea then extract of Oregano OREGACYN P73 is one of the most potent anti microbial agents known to man. Oregano extract has been shown to kill many varieties of harmful bacteria, fungi and parasites without the risks or side effects associated with anti microbial drugs. It may be very useful as both prevention and treatment of Travellers Diarrhoea and combines particularly well with probiotics for this purpose. Or you could use CITROSEPT GRAPEFRUIT SEED EXTRACT LIQUID CONCENTRATE CAPSULES, a natural antibiotic, antiviral and antiparasitic treatment and preventative against cold and flu and infections and illness from contaminated water or food without disturbing or affecting the natural intestinal flora, necessary for health. Finally always ensure your hands are always hygienically clean when touching food wether it's a meal, ice cream or a snack. Carry a pocket size tube of ASSEPTEL HAND SANITISING GEL and squeeze a drop on your hands to neutralise 99.99% of food poisoning germs in as little as 15 seconds!

HERBAL REMEDIES FOR JET LAG. One of the most valid supplements in ameliorating jet lag and travel fatigue is Ginseng. Ginseng belongs to a category of plants known as adaptogens or agents that are known to improve human tolerance to various types of stressors. Ginseng has been shown to enhance the tolerance to physical, mental and environmental stress while reducing the associated mental and physical fatigue. Because travel and especially long haul travel involves all three categories of stress Ginseng is perhaps among the most useful of tools for travellers. Another useful herb is Rhodiola which is one of most powerful adaptogens ever researched. Like Ginseng, Rhodiola substantially improves tolerance to physical, mental and environmental stress and also increases the activity of the calming, mood elevating chemical messenger Serotonin in the brain. NEW CHAPTER SUPERCRITICAL STRESS ADVANTAGE is a blend of nine powerful adaptogens that include American Ginseng and Rhodiola as well as Curcuma Xanthorhiza and Turmeric to help you to master the stresses of travel and strengthen your cardiovascular, adrenal and immune system response to stress.

BETA CAROTENE LOWERS RISK OF SKIN SUN DAMAGE. For those who wish to enjoy the sun with less risk of skin damage and burning, but do wish to develop a tan, Beta Carotene is a valuable nutrient. As a natural pigment it gives colour to the fruits and vegetables in which it is found. This pigmentation combined with the potent antioxidant properties of Beta Carotene helps protect skin cells against damaging UV rays and promotes a natural looking tan. A German study has shown that Beta Carotene plus sunscreen was more effective at protecting against sunburn and skin damage from the sun than sunscreen alone following controlled sun exposure. ARKOPHARMA PHYTOBRONZ TANNING OPTIMISER SUPPLEMENT contains very powerful active ingredients. The antioxidants - Grape Seed Extract and Natural Vitamin E and Beta Carotene to neutralise damaging free radicals and damage to cells and tissues, stabilising Collagen for a more supple and stronger skin, Starflower Oil and Borage Oil to improve hydration of the epidermis and Carotenoids to increase skin colour tone and melanin production so your skin is better protected and you tan better and more evenly to leave your skin soft and glowing and looking beautifully sun kissed and healthy.

How to treat a wasp sting. Wasps possess stings which can be quite painful and sometimes dangerous and unlike bees can sting you over and over. The wasp sting is housed in the abdomen of the insect. It consists of a poison sac attached to a set of barbed lancets and stylus protected within the abdomen casing. When the wasp goes to sting its victim, the two halves of the abdomen casing open slightly to allow the shaft and lancets and stylet to penetrate the skin. As the lancets move rapidly backwards and forwards in a sawing action, the venom is pumped through the shaft tip into the wound. And all this takes just milliseconds! Wasp stings are always very painful, red, and swollen up to twelve inches around the sting site. This is called a local reaction. In sensitive individuals however, a systemic or "whole body" reaction occurs, with redness, hives (itchy raised skin lumps), and swelling far away from the sting site. Any systemic reaction can be life threatening and should be seen by a doctor immediately. This includes hives, swelling in the face, shortness of breath or wheezing, difficulty swallowing, and light-headedness or fainting. These usually occur within minutes to an hour after the sting. Local reactions generally don't require professional care. However, if your local reaction causes enough swelling or pain to distract you from your normal activities or keep you awake despite basic treatment, you should see a doctor. And if the redness or swelling worsens after 24 hours, see your doctor. A local reaction is accompanied by swelling, redness, pain, severe itchiness and possible infection. To treat a localized reaction to a wasp sting try to first draw out or destroy the protein based venom with a baking soda or natural white vinegar compress. An alternative is to scrape the skin with the dull side of a table knife to try to draw out the venom without driving it further in. If the pain is excessive take a proprietary anti inflammatory. Use a proprietary hydrocortisone cream to help reduce swelling, redness and itching but it does take time to take effect. Meanwhile in order to treat the persistent and often unbearable itching that results from a wasp sting that can last for days, MAGICOOL is an amazing self cooling fine mist water spray that provides a soothing natural treatment for any skin itchiness in seconds! Controlling the desperate urge to scratch is vital because that's when wasp stings can become seriously infected. Completely safe, non-steroidal and non-creamy, not only does MAGICOOL abolish itching within seconds but the cool spray resists the further urge to scratch and helps break the vicious itch scratch cycle. Non-steroidal and sterile, MAGICOOL is suitable for applying on broken skin. Finally to prevent further infection apply TETRASIL natural ionic silver antibacterial topical cream.

Jetlag and coping with travel through time zones. The adjustment and recovery from the physical and mental stresses and the disruption to your body clock caused by travel through time zones for example from say from London to Auckland New Zealand can take days and even up to a week or more in many cases! Your 'body clock' is controlled by a small cluster of brain cells that affects the timing of biological functions (circadian rhythms), including when you eat and sleep and is designed for a regular rhythm of daylight and darkness. Your body clock is thrown out of sync when it experiences daylight and darkness at the 'wrong' times in a new time zone. SUNRISE ALARM CLOCKS can help smooth the adjustment to changing time zones and altered sleep wake patterns by quickly resetting your body clocks to the new time zone of your destination or the old time zone on your return home. So instead of taking a week or more to adjust to an intercontinental journey, you can become fully adapted to the changing time zones in just one or two days.

Deep vein thrombosis and oral contraceptives. The link. The oral contraceptive pill does increase the risk of a potentially fatal blood clot in the legs or DVT. It is thought that active agents in the pill affect the way a women's blood clots making it more likely for her to develop DVT. That said the risk in most cases is still very low increasing from about 5 cases per 100,000 women per year to around 25 cases per 100,000 women per year but the risks and susceptibility to DVT are further increased when there are added risk factors such as a family history of blood clots or circulation problems, obesity and women who are especially tall or especially short. The risks of DVT apply not only to airline travel but also to long coach and car journeys where movement is restricted and where travellers may be seated for very long periods of time. So if you do take an oral contraceptive and are concerned about the risks of DVT on long haul flights or long car or coach journeys, you can take ZINOPIN a natural clinically tested Travel Supplement based on a unique synergistic blend of two active constituents - Pycnogenol and Ginger developed by Dr John Scurr a leading UK vascular surgeon and DVT expert. Pycnogenol – extract of Maritime Pine Bark with its anti oxidant procyandins and bioflavonoids exhibit numerous heart and circulation and anti thrombosis benefits without the risk of internal gastro-intestinal bleeding characteristic of aspirins. Pycnogenol helps lower LDL cholesterol, reduce platelet activity and capillary permeability, relaxes artery constriction and improves circulation – promoting improved blood flow and reducing the ability of the blood to clot after long periods of immobility. Clinical studies also show that apart from its Anti DVT properties Pycnogenol also reduces uncomfortable and sometimes painful ankle and lower leg swelling, calf cramps, heaviness of the legs and ‘pins and needles' due to sluggish circulation. Ginger Root Extract (SGRE) has not only shown to have anti platelet aggregation and anti inflammatory activity but have long been shown to reduce air travel and sea sickness, cold sweating, nausea, ‘queasiness' and motion sickness without causing drowsiness common to other anti nausea and travel sickness medications.

Divers benefit from vitamins. Scuba Divers may benefit from supplements of vitamins C and E. A recent study reveals that scuba divers may benefit from supplements of vitamins C and E. Scientists from Croatia and Norway found that vitamins stopped the ill-effects of diving on the cells lining blood vessels, which can lead to high blood pressure and other health problems. The researchers studied professional divers before a 30 minute, 30 metre dive. They performed two dives 24 hours apart with doses of vitamins C and E administered two hours before the second dive. The results showed that the supplements prevented endothelial dysfunction – a process which can lead to high blood pressure.
