When I came across Himalayan Products at an event last month , I immediately made it a point to share their story on the blog so I could provide you with some relevant information regarding cheese.

They are a rich source of protein and potassium helping lower the risks of blood pressure and aiding in building muscles and healthy bones.

The insights came pouring in all suggestive of a lifestyle that involves healthy food, physical activity , stress management ( I am talking about managing stress as it’s impossible to be stress free completely today ) and practising humility and kindness. However, one of the most common underlying reasons that came to me as a revelation was that I never really paid much attention to the amount of toxins the skin had been soaking up for years . To be honest , I had come across a few articles a couple of years ago that talked about toxins in beauty and skin products but it was six months ago that I realised the the skin absorbs a major amount of these toxins .
