Dark circles aren’t usually caused by a medical problem. It’s usually something simple. I take it as a sign that I’m not getting enough rest.
When you don’t sleep enough, it causes a chain reaction of stress in your body. It can affect your adrenal glands and the way you absorb vitamins. A simple solution is aim for 7 to 9 hours of sleep a night. Give yourself a couple weeks to see improvement.
Straining your eyes can also cause dark circles. If you find yourself staring at a computer for the better part of the day, make sure you take a break every 10 minutes or so. Look away from the computer and focus on something far away. This will help to relax your eyes.
If these suggestions don’t help, you may have an allergy. Allergies are one of the most common causes of dark circles. Whether it’s indoor, outdoor, or food allergies, your best bet is to avoid whatever is causing the symptoms or treat it.
Many times, it’s a matter of removing as many possible allergens from your home as possible. For instance, you may be allergic to chemicals in cleaning supplies or air fresheners. Try using environmentally friendly products and toss out your plug-ins. Many people see a difference within a week.
One way to treat allergies is to increase your levels of vitamins, minerals, and enzymes. Eat a diet that includes fresh, raw fruits and vegetables to improve your symptoms and make dark circles disappear.
And don’t forget probiotics. I use Kifer and also capsules. You get some probiotics when you eat yogurt. But I recommend you take a supplement. Take 10 to 20 billion CFU’s. You can buy them at a store that carries vitamins. When you take probiotics, you stimulate your immune system so your body can resist an allergic response.
Here’s a simple treatment you can try. Wrap a bag of frozen peas in a soft cloth or chill a couple teaspoons and place them on your eyes. Or you can try a cooled, used teabag or cucumber slices.

Ageless Life
Today, our lives are filled with countless comforts and quick fixes.
From the latest I-Pod to genetically enhanced vegetables, nearly
every aspect of our lives is changing at the speed of light.
Recently, the German agricultural giant, Bayer, admitted that
genetic modifications of food products and seeds are getting
out of hand. In fact, the bio-engineering of food is quickly
enslaving the earth's population. This high-tech food production
has not managed to increase the quality and nutritional value of food,
rather the opposite.
Diseases and disorders are on the rise and many can be linked to
deficiencies in vitamins and essential minerals.
In order to simplify one`s lifestyle, one must identify the sources
of stress, anxiety and fatigue.
Then, one must embrace the simplicity of being satisfied with enough
and eliminate the excess.
Do this and you will have an uncomplicated, peaceful AGELESS life.
Take Charge...Take time to Identify your stressors and
Take a good Mulit-Vitamin/Mineral product!
