Amazing Health, Beauty and Weightloss Benefits of Peaches!
The nutrient that fends off summer colds. Sitting inside with the air conditioner buzzing is a recipe for sniffles. The frigid air can dry mucous membranes, making nasal passages more susceptible to bacteria. But a peach can keep you in the pink. It's rich in beta-carotene, which the body converts into vitamin A, says Mary Ellen Camire, Ph.D., professor of food science at the University of Maine at Orono. This nutrient fortifies membranes so they're more resistant to infection.
How about a Healthy Peach Smoothie to enhance your immune system.
The fruit acid that uncovers luminous skin. A mask made with fresh peaches delivers the skin-beautifying effects of a spa facial for just pennies. Peaches are rich in mallic acid, a key ingredient in many beauty products, says Ariel Ostad, M.D., a New York City dermatologist. This alpha hydroxy acid breaks down the molecules that bind damaged cells to the skin's surface so they can easily and gently be exfoliated.
Radiance-revealing mask. Blend 1 peach (pitted, skinned and sliced), 1 Tbs. honey and 1 packet instant plain oatmeal until smooth. Pat on face; let sit 15 minutes. Rinse with warm water. Refrigerate excess in airtight container for up to one week.
The scent that makes you skinny (effortlessly!) Simply smelling a peach can help you shed 24 pounds this month without dieting, report scientists at Chicago's Smell & Taste Treatment and Research Foundation. Sweet scents trick the brain into feeling full, so food intake drops, says study author Alan Hirsch, M.D. The effect is so powerful, subjects lost up to 6 pounds per week, says Hirsch.
Slimming steam bath. Place 3 drops of peach essence oil on your showerhead. Run hot water for 3 minutes to diffuse oil in steam. Inhale the aroma as you shower.
The color that renews and invigorates. For an instant dose of energy, take a glance at a golden peach. This color stimulates the pituitary gland to prompt the release of the energizing hormone adrenaline, says color expert Lisa Marie Coffey, coauthor of The Healthy Family Handbook (Tuttle Publishing). And since the eyes and brain process this bright hue faster than most colors, you won't have to wait long to feel revitalized.
