Why we shouldn’t fear eating egg (3 of 3)

Dry skin mask. One raw egg yolk, scrambled. Add a few drops of fresh milk, apply on the face, avoiding the eye area. Leave on until dry. Rinse with cool water.

Oil control/facelift mask. Get one beaten egg white and add three drops of lemon. Apply on freshly washed face. Leave on until it dries up and tightens skin. Acts like a natural facelift treatment. Rinse with cool water.

Basically, I am a happy person. So why do I get depressed?

Do you know that mental illness has a relation to a nutritionally deficient diet? Biochemical causes create mental disturbances. Research has shown that a mental and emotional affliction like depression is linked to a deficiency in vitamin B complex or vitamin C.

Normal people with a cheerful disposition can be victims of the “blues” if they lack niacin or folic acid. Remember, if you are depressed, alcohol or drugs are not the answer. Alcohol is a depressant and will bring you to lower levels of sadness. And never combine a sedative with alcohol, it’s a deadly combination.

Look into the possible causes of your depression: oral contraceptives, penicillin, estrogens, antihistamines, beta-blockers, laxatives, prednisone, potassium supplements, diuretics. Know that an overstressed mental and emotional state causes severe bouts of depression and anxiety. So try to control your stress.
