Dr. Tabor's Slim and Beautiful Diet Shakes

I've been trying to find a good protein shake for breakfast or snack time to help fill me up and keep me full.  But the protein shakes I've tried in the past are more like a thick drink, not really a meal replacement shake. Recently, I was doing some research and came across Dr. Aaron Tabor's Slim and Beatiful Diet Shakes on Facebook .  I thought what a great idea to combine the benefits of a healthy, delicious, shake that will improve your skin, hair and nails and can help you get or stay slim at the same time.  I contacted Dr. Tabor for a few samples of his Slim and Beautiful shakes.

Toxic Heavy Metals Found In Cosmetics

Think twice next time your shopping for your favorite make-up and skincare products at your local drug or department stores.  A  new study by Health Canada confirms that  popular cosmetics products contain toxic heavy metals, including lead, arsenic and cadmium and other heavy metals.  Of the 49 products tested for the study, all were found to be contaminated with heavy metals!  Some products contained levels of arsenic and lead that far exceed the limits recommended by health officials.  What's more shocking is none of the products listed the metals on label ingredient lists. Major loopholes in U.S. federal law allow the $50 billion cosmetics industry to put unlimited amounts of chemicals into personal care products with no required testing, no monitoring of health effects and inadequate labeling requirements. In fact, cosmetics are among the least-regulated products on the market.   Here are the results of the tests: 100 percent of the products...
