HOLI KHELE NANDLAL


Hiranyakashipu’s sister, in huge bonfires at night. It is called Kama dahanam in Andhra Pradesh. On the second day, known as Dhulheti, people spend the day throwing coloured powder and water at each other. The spring season, during which the weather changes, is believed to cause viral fever and cold. Thus, the playful throwing of the coloured powders has a medicinal significance: the colours are traditionally made of Neem, Kumkmedicinal herbsa, and other medicinal herbs prescribed by Āyurvedic doctors. A special drink called thandai is prepared, sometimes containing bhang (Cannabis sativa). Rangapanchami occurs a few days later on a Panchami (fifth day of the full moon), marking the end of festivities involving colours. Holi takes place over two days in the later part of February or March. As per the Hindu calendar, it falls on the Phalgun Purnima (or Pooranmashi, Full Moon), which occurred on March 22 in 2008. (In 2007, Holi was celebrated on 3 March; the burning of Holika was on 4 Marchand the Dhuleti on 5 March.) www.shemaroo.com

Medical Herbs For Skin Demystified – A “Beauty Preserver” Ingredient That Never Fails

herbal remedies have been used since ages and people have been benefiting from amazing medicinal herbs for skin since times immemorial. Cutting edge herbal skin care products of today combine the best of both worlds – science and nature.

One of such amazing medicinal herbs for skin is Phytessence Wakame. It is a powerful antioxidant that has been derived from Japanese sea algae. It is one of the best kept “Beauty Preserver” secrets of Japan.

It is a variety of kelp, which is native to the Japanese sea. It is extensively cultivated and consumed both in fresh and dried form in Japanese diet, due to its health giving properties and its extraordinary ability to make the skin look young, smooth and beautiful.

Some of its amazing capabilities that make it one of the best medicinal herbs for skin health are –

1) It is rich in iron, sodium, potassium and calcium (it has 15 times more calcium than milk). These are the minerals that are essential to maintain the skin’s moisture balance and to keep it looking firm, supple and healthy.

2) It has amazing properties in soothing skin inflammation. It also helps to heal irritated and dry skin.

3) It significantly improves skin moisture retention and elasticity. It gives the skin a new rejuvenation and makes it soft and supple.

4) It contains a lot of antioxidants which help in combating free radical damage and oxidative stress. As you know, free radical damage is one of the biggest causes of premature skin aging.

Phytessence Wakame plays a unique role by inhibiting the activity of hyaluronidase. It is an enzyme that breaks down the vital hyaluronic acid in the skin.

Hyaluronic acid is essential to maintain the elasticity, smoothness and the tone of our skin. It works together with collagen and elastin and works as a glue to bind the fibers together. Its loss in skin leads to loss of youthful appearance and gives dark eye circles.

It is prized by the Japanese people for its unique ability to keep the skin looking youthful. It also helps to prevent the harm caused to skin due to the effects of pollution and UV radiation. That is the reason why it is the number one choice in medicinal herbs for skin used in best herbal skin care products.

A good combination of medicinal herbs for skin in herbal skin care products can give the best protection, nourishment and natural youth for your skin. This is not something that substandard skin care products made up of synthetic chemicals can give.
