Summer Tips: SUNBLOCK
Sunblock protects your skin by absorbing and/or reflecting UVA and UVB radiation. All sunblocks have a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) rating. The SPF rating indicates how long a sunscreen remains effective on the skin. A user can determine how long their sunblock will be effective by multiplying the SPF factor by the length of time it takes for him or her to suffer a burn without sunscreen.
For instance, if you normally develop a sunburn in 10 minutes without wearing a sunscreen, a sunscreen with an SPF of 15 will protect you for 150 minutes (10 minutes multiplied by the SPF of 15). Although sunscreen use helps minimize sun damage, no sunscreen completely blocks all wavelengths of UV light. Wearing sun protective clothing and avoiding sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. will also help protect your skin from overexposure and minimize sun damage.
The American Association of Dermatology (AAD) recommends that a "broad spectrum" sunblock with an SPF of at least 15 that is applied daily to all sun exposed areas, then reapplied every two hours. However, in some recent clinical trials, sunblocks with SPF 30 provided significantly better protection than sunblocks with SPF15. Therefore at UCSF, we recommend sunblocks with SPF of at least 30 with frequent reapplication.
What is the best type of sunblock to purchase?
The best sunblock varies from individual to individual. We recommend broad spectrum sunblock with UVA and UVB protection, a SPF rating of at least 30, in a form that is gentle enough for daily use.
Active ingredients of sunblock vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and can be divided into chemical versus physical agents. Chemical sunblocks work by absorbing the energy of UV radiation before it affects your skin. Physical sunblocks reflect or scatter UV radiation before it reaches your skin. Some sunblocks combine both chemical and physical sunblocks.
The two types of physical sunblocks that are available are zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. Both provide broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and are gentle enough for everyday use. Because these are physical blocking agents and not chemicals, they are especially useful for individuals with sensitive skin, as they rarely cause skin irritation.
Most chemical sunblocks are composed of several active ingredients. This is because no single chemical ingredient blocks the entire UV spectrum (unlike physical sunblocks). Instead, most chemicals only block a narrow region of the UV spectrum. Therefore, by combining several chemicals,with each one blocking a different region of UV light, one can produce a sunblock that provides broad spectrum protection. The majority of chemical agents used in sunblock work in the UVB region. Only a few chemicals block the UVA region. Since UVA can also cause long-term skin injury, dermatologists at UCSF routinely recommends sunblocks that contain either a physical blocking agent (e.g. titanium dioxide or zinc oxide) or Avobenzone (also known as Parsol 1789).
Sunblocks comes in a variety of forms. Lotions, oils, sticks, gels, sprays and creams can all be effective sunscreens. However, sunblocks are only effective if they are used. We encourage you to try several types and find the one which works and feels the best to you. All sunscreens should be applied 15-20 minutes before sun exposure to allow a protective film to develop, then reapplied after water contact and sweating. Some sunblocks can lose effectiveness after two hours, so reapply frequently.
In general, spray lotions and gels are the least oily but also the ones that wash off more easily and need to be reapplied more frequently. If you develop a rash or other type of allergic response to a sunscreen, try a different brand or form (lotion vs. oil, for example) to see if you can better tolerate it. The most common allergic reactions occur with sunscreens that contain PABA-based chemicals. If you develop a rash to a sunblock, check the label to see if PABA is an ingredient. If so, consider avoiding sunblocks that contains this in the future. Alternatively, try a titanium dioxide or zinc oxide containing sunblock as they rarely cause skin irritation and provide very good broad spectrum UV protection.
Water resistant sunblocks are available for active individuals or those involved in water sports. It's important to check the label to ensure they say "water-resistant" or "very water-resistant."
* Water-Resistant sunblock maintains the SPF level after 40 minutes of water immersion
* Very Water-Resistant sunblock maintains the SPF level after 80 minutes of water immersion

Paglingon sa Yapak
Sa bawat hakbang ng iyong mga paa ay may mga bakas na kailan man hindi na mabubura. Iyan ang tinatawag nateng nakaraan. Mga yapak sa bawat hakbang. Mga marka sa ating dinaanan. Mga pangyayareng ating tinatanaw-tanaw sa bawat paglipas ng araw. Mga alaalang pilit nateng binabalik-balikan para namnamin ang mga masasaya at malulungkot na eksena sa ating buhay. Mga yapak ng ating paa na ating nililingon sa bawat pag-usad ng panahon.
Dalawampu't isang taon at mahigit sa tatlongbuwan na rin ang lumipas mula ng ako'y ipinanganak sa mundong ito. Siyam na taon na ang nagdaan ng matapos ako sa elementarya. Limang taon naman na ang nakaraan ng ako'y makatapos sa sekondarya. At magtatatlong taon na rin ng pumanaw ang aking ina. Noong nakaraang taon naman ang may pinakamaraming lalake na aking nakadaupang palad sa kama. At, noong nakaraang Sabado lang naman nang ako ay muling nakipageyeball sa isang di-kakilala.
Ilan lamang yan sa mga yapak ng aking buhay na aking tinatanaw-tanaw sa mga oras na ito. Naalala ko nga noong ako ay nasa Grade 2 at ako'y nahulog sa puno at muntik ng nalagot ang hininga ko. Salamat sa Diyos at nilikha niya akong masamang damo. Isa rin sa mga hindi ko makakalimutang pangyayare sa buhay ko noong makilala ko ang boypren ko. Nadaan sa konting usapan, napadalas ng napadalas, nakuha sa txt at tawagan, hanggang sa kami nga ay naging magkasintahan. Naalala ko pa noong ako'y kanyang nililigawan, araw-araw busy sa cellphone na pinaglumaan. Marami ring mga tinapay, cake at tsokolate. Araw-araw, gabi-gabi inaantay ang matamis kong OO at halik sa kanyang mapupulang labi.
Mga panahong iyon ay nakaraan na. Mga oras na iyon kailanma'y di na maibabalik pa. Mga eksenang ganun kailanma'y di na mauulit pa. Mga oras sa ating buhay na ating pinagsisisihan, pilit bumabalik at kinukulot ang ating isipan. Mga oras na ganun kailanma'y mas di malilimutan. Kaya payo ko sa mga kapwa ko kabataan, sa pagtahak sa inyong daan huwag lingon ng lingon sa daan bagkus deretso lang ang tingin sa patutunguhan. Panahong ika'y malulugmok di na mababago pa, panahong ng pagtamasa tiyak ika'y matutuwa. Marapat sanang bukas mata nating arukin ang lawak at lalim ng daang ating tinatahak para sa masusing pagbubunyi sa paparating na mga pagsubok sa buhay.

Banana
A professor at CCNY for a physiological psych class told his class
about bananas. He said the expression 'going bananas' is
from the effects of bananas on the brain. Read on ....
Never, put your banana in the refrigerator !!!
This is interesting.??After reading this, you'll never look at a
banana in the same way again.? Bananas contain three
natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose
combined with fiber.
A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.
Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy
for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the
number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.
But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit.?It can also
help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and
conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.
Depression:?According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND
amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better
after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain
tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts
into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve
your mood and generally make you feel happier.
PMS:?Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains
regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.
Anemia:?High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of
hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.
Blood Pressure:?This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in
potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood
pressure. So much so, the?US?Food and Drug
Administration has just allowed the banana
industry to make official claims for the
fruit's ability to reduce the risk of
blood pressure and stroke.
Brain Power:?200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school
( England ) were helped through their exams this year by eating
bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost
their brain power. Research has shown that the
potassium-packed fruit can assist learning
by making pupils more alert.
Constipation:?High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help
restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem
without resorting to laxatives.
Hangovers:?One of the quickest?ways of curing a hangover is to
make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana
calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up
depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and
re-hydrates your system.
Heartburn:?Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body,
so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana
for soothing relief.
Morning Sickness:?Snacking on bananas between meals helps
to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.
Mosquito bites:?Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try
rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many
people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling
and irritation.
Nerves:?Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the
nervous system.
Overweight?and at work? Studies at the?Institute?of?Psychology?in
Austria ?found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like
chocolate and chips. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients,
researchers found the most obese were more likely to
be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that,
to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to
control our blood sugar levels by snacking on
high carbohydrate foods every two hours
to keep levels steady..
Ulcers:?The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal
disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the
only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in
over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes
over-acidity and reduces irritation by
coating the lining of the stomach.
Temperature control:?Many other cultures see bananas as a
'cooling' fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional
temperature of expectant mothers. In? Thailand , for
example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure
their baby is born with a cool temperature.
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD):?Bananas can help
SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood
enhancer tryptophan.
Smoking & Tobacco Use:?Bananas can also help people trying
to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the
potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body
recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.
Stress:?Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the
heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's
water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate
rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These
can be rebalanced with the help of a
high-potassium banana snack.
Strokes:?According to research in The New England Journal of
Medicine, eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the
risk of death by strokes by as much as 40?percent.
Warts:?Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want
to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the
wart, with the yellow side out.. Carefully hold the skin in place
with a plaster or surgical tape!
So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare
it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate,
three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and
twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium
and is one of the best value foods around. So maybe its time to
change that well-known phrase so that we say, 'A banana a
day keeps the doctor away!'
PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so happy all the time!
I will add one more?here; want a quick shine on our shoes?? Take
the INSIDE of the banana skin, and rub directly on the shoe ...
polish with dry cloth. Amazing fruit?!!!

Mahal ko
Salamat sa lahat!
Dahil kung hindi ka dumating sa buhay ko,
Hindi ko malalaman kung bakit,
Ikaw ang nagdadala ng bituin sa mga mata ko,
At ang ligayang kailan man hindi ko mahahanap sa tanang buhay ko,
