A lot of them contain harsh chemicals like dyes, preservatives, and even UV brighteners. Those brighteners don't actually clean anything. They just coat fabric so your eyes think things look whiter or brighter. That's more chemicals I don't want on my family's sheets or skin. And if you've got sensitive skin or allergies around the house, this can be a big problem. That's what got my attention about Earth Breeze. It looks like a dryer sheet, but it's actually laundry detergent. You toss one in the washer and that's it. No pouring, no mess, and no heavy plastic jug. Their packaging is lightweight cardboard, which helps reduce plastic waste. And if you choose the fragrance free option, it's gentle, hypoallergenic, non irritating and non sensitizing. I really like how simple it is and how fresh and clean everything comes out without those unnecessary chemicals.

This is JJ Virgin, four time New York Times Best selling author, celebrity nutrition expert and Fitness hall of Famer. I've been on a lifelong quest for answers to the toughest health questions and now I'm sharing what I found with you. Welcome to Ask the Health Expert.

What a great question. What type of nutrition or supplements will help you keep your skin looking good on the outside? And again, this really comes down to figuring out what your specific physical constitution wants. And this really starts to now get into the body, mind, spirit, energy, because when all of those things are balanced, you're going to be your most beautiful and radiant version. This is just what I see time and time again with these lovely clients that I work with and I've worked with thousands since 2011. And there are a number of common threads and I'm really going to break it down for you guys. I do talk about this in my ebook, Unlocking your Vitality, which you guys can get your hand on. And it's kind of a guidebook that really lays this all out for you guys. Typically, I see women in their 60s sometimes for the first time. And you know, they've, they've come to me with me and they're, rachel, what can I do to make my skin better? And I take one look at them and they're just radiating. They're beautiful. They got that inner radiance happening for them. And I see that actually cultivated to a higher degree in women typically in their 50s and 60s than I see in young men and women in their 20s and 30s. So this is getting into some internal practices that I just see across the board, really working for people. So the other part of this question is what type of internal practices have I seen working for my patients? It's balancing that body, mind, spirit, energy. So let's just break this down for you guys. So with the body, I'm a firm believer in really balancing your exercise. So whether that's your cardiovascular, right, getting, getting your heart pumping, your cardiovascular training, really good for your lung and heart health. And then we have our strength training, lifting those weights, building that bone density up, and then flexibility and stability. Say, for example, with yoga or Pilates or other exercises like Tai chi, that or qigong, that are very grounding and balancing, but are also great for kind of bringing everything together. But it's absolutely marrying those three to really help your body be as strong as possible. Because, trust me, I spent six months just doing yoga every day. And then I went to the gym and I couldn't believe how weak I was. So it's really balancing that. And then another internal practice for the mind is to really start to do things that light you up. So these lovely, lovely people, men and women that I'm referring to in their 50s and 60s, that have really dialed in their practices and do things in their life that bring them joy, that really light them up on the inside. And it's keeping their mind strong, it's keeping their mind stimulated. And then for the spirit, some people will call the spirituality. Some people will call this religion. I also am. I just observe this all the time. That typically, these very vibrant people that I work with have some type of spiritual practice, whatever that may be, but they do have a spiritual practice. And then with our energy. So body, mind, spirit, and then adding the layer of energy. Energy is neither created or destroyed. It's merely transformed. We're always going through shifts in our life. Whether that's a loss of a loved one, a divorce, we're having a child, or the child's moved out of the house. There are always things that are happening in our lives that, yes, can impact our cortisol, which thus impacts our hormones, and whatever we can do to stabilize and keep our body in the highest degree of balance possible. That is really one of the key aspects to really helping your skin look good from the inside, because your whole essence is going to be better. So why I'm saying this is, if you haven't looked at the world in this way, this is going to blow your mind. We live in a world of duality. Light, dark, good, bad. Your hormones are, you know, too high in this spectrum or, or too low in this spectrum, things will be out of balance and equilibrium for you. Our bodies are always wanting to get to equilibrium. So the more options we have to. To let our body do that, the better it's going to function, the better your skin is going to look and reduce inflammation. And if you've never considered inflammation actually aging you, I want you to remember this word. It's called inflammaging. Inflammation causes things to change in our body. And when we reduce inflammation by even, say, taking some really great antioxidant supplements to help our body work as it wants to work by giving our body all of these great co factors so that it can function optimally. Things are just going to be better, right? So when you have your diet dialed in, you're taking some really great supplements, you're actually going to be giving your body a better chance at fighting off some of the free radical damage that occurs from our environment. Whether that's pollution, whether that's from blue light, whether that's from, you know, wi fi and cell phones and all of that. I really feel that we do have to hone in our, our internal practices now more than ever if we want to age well, because even our food isn't quite as nutrient dense as it used to be. So what type of nutrition and supplements will help you keep your skin looking good on the outside? I do recommend that you take some labs and get some some different gene testings to really analyze what's right for your constitution. Because for me, I don't do very well with eating rice, but my husband does. I don't do great with grains and I was actually only able to determine that with working with a nutritionist. So highly recommend that if you're wanting to maximize your lifestyle practices to actually meet with a professional and get some of these labs for yourself done so that you can start to just really give your body what it wants. And again, just a reiteration, what type of internal practices have I seen working for my most vibrant patients? It's really figuring out how to better align your body, mind, spirit and energy practices to allow your body to be as balanced as possible. And when we're talking about, okay, how can we be our most authentic version, that really will stem from when you are your most balanced version. You're going to be your happiest version, you're going to be your truest version. And that's going to allow you to interact with people, places and things and in a much more beautiful way. And you are going to have a higher level of radiance, I promise you.

Hello listeners, this is Anne Bogle, author, blogger and creator of the podcast what Should I Read next? Since 2016, I've been helping readers bring more joy and delight into their reading lives. Every week I tag all things books and reading with a guest and guide them in discovering their next read. They share three books they love, one book they don't, and what they've been reading lately, and I recommend three titles they may enjoy reading next. Guests have said our conversations are like therapy, troubleshooting issues that have plagued their reading lives for years, and possibly the rest of their lives as well. And, of course, recommending books that meet the moment. Whether they are looking for deep introspection to spur or encourage a life change or a frothy page turner to help them escape the stresses of work, school, everything, you'll learn something about yourself as a reader, and you'll definitely walk away confident to choose your next read, with a whole list of new books and authors to try.
