Sheep, Deer or Human Placenta?

Sheep and deer protein and placenta are more popularity chosen because of its bio-compatibility with humans and is known to provoke no allergic reactions. Fetal stem cells have also not yet developed antigenicity.

Sheep and deer placenta is preferably sourced from New Zealand rather than Europe where outbreaks of diseases such as Foot & Mouth Disease, Scrapie and Mad Cow Disease are a serious concern. These diseases can affect sheep and deer.

New Zealand is free from Foot & Mouth Disease, Scrapie and BSE (Mad Cow's Disease). Countries like Switzerland and China are not free of these diseases. These two countries are not an isolated country and infected cattle, birds and sheep can cross borders unlike in New Zealand where the country is isolated.

There are preparations of human placenta. But wisdom questions the source? Have the human placenta been tested for Hepatitis, HIV and other viruses? Are these placenta gotten by illegal means from third world countries?? Would you yourself sell your own placenta once you had given birth to a manufacturer to make placenta products? I believe these are important questions to ask, and that it is best to avoid human placenta until satisfactory answers can be given regarding the source of human placenta.

Girls' Paradise: World Top 10 Shopping Streets

1 | FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK
While it may have been recently invaded by suburban mall favorites likes the Disney Store, Abercrombie & Fitch and H&M, Fifth Avenue remains New York's (and one of the world's) best shopping street. It's still home to landmark department stores, designer boutiques, and spectacular window displays, especially around Christmas times.

2 | BOND STREET, LONDON
Bond Street is a major shopping street in the West End of London that runs north-south through Mayfair between Oxford Street and Piccadilly. Extending from Picadilly to Oxford Street, this is probably Europe's busiest boulevard. It's home to the most expensive shops in the continent, but even if you can't afford any of them, you can always dream as you window shop. About a mile away, is the equally posh Sloane Street.

3 | AVENUE MONTAIGNE, PARIS
Home to the most luxurious boutiques in Paris, this avenue lined with elegant buildings is where those who can afford it splurge on high fashion and jewellery. It's also where you confirm that the French capital really is the epicentre of sophistication and style.

4 | BAHNHOFSTRASSE, ZURICH
This is one of the most exclusive addresses of the world, a tree-lined avenue with top fashion designer boutiques and, of course, the famous Swiss watches. Very pedestrian-friendly, it ends with a world-famous luxury confectionary, the Confiserie Sprungli.

5 | VIA MONTENAPOLEONE, MILAN
This fashion paradise is the main street of a fabulous shopping neighbourhood in one of the world's greatest style cities. All of the top Italian (and non-Italian) designers are here, together with less-exclusive ready-to-wear and jewellery shops. Many of the world's top fashion brands also have their headquarters and offices on this street.

6 | RODEO DRIVE, BEVERLY HILLS (L.A.)
Perhaps the world's glitziest and most glamurous shopping area, this is where the rich and the famous get their haute couture fashions to show off on Hollywood's red carpets. 

7 | GINZA, TOKYO
Not exactly a street, but an entire district comprised of eight blocks, this is where Tokyo's fashion victims model their latest acquisitions. It's known for its big up-scale department stores, luxury retailers, and elaborate window displays. 

8 | P.C. HOOFTSTRAAT, AMSTERDAM
Being such a pedestrian-friendly city, Amsterdam offers some of the most pleasant shopping experiences in the world. Its best shops are found on this small street, not far from the city's top museums. It's also home to some of the most expensive apartments in the country, and the international luxury brands target those well-heeled locals. 

9 | STROGET, COPENHAGEN
This is one of the urban wonders of the world, Europe's longest pedestrian shopping area. While there are many famous luxury shops, you'll also find the popular chain stores everyone can afford. What further makes this one of the most enjoyable places to shop in the world is the fact that it's closed to traffic and you can always take a break for a drink at a café outside. 

10 | CALLE SERRANO, MADRID
This is arguably the least famous of the world's great shopping streets. Found in Madrid's wealthiest neighbourhood, it is (together with Calle Preciados also in the capital), one of Spain's (and Europe's) most expensive streets. Naturally, most of the great international brands and designers are found here, attracting the poshest madrileños to see and be seen.

10 Tricks To Reverse Ageing~


Whether cosmetic or emblematic of a deeper health issue, signs of premature aging of the skin, hair, brain or body may add decades to your chronological age. ForbesWoman spoke to dieticians, neurologists and dermatologists to find the 10 best tricks to turn back the clock and reverse premature aging symptoms.

1) Store Up Calcium in Your 20's

Elizabeth Somer, dietician and author of Age-Proof Your Body, says you build up most of your bone density prior to your 30s, so you’d be wise to store up on calcium beforehand. Then continue to follow a high-calcium diet--calcium is better absorbed from milk than a supplement—to keep bones strong. Women rapidly lose bone mass after menopause, and without a bone scan, Somer warns that the only symptom of bone loss will be a fracture or break.

2) Shield Your Face from Sun While Driving

Dermatologist surgeon Eric Bernstein sees what he calls “car windrow syndrome” in the majority of his patients. They have significantly more skin damage on the left side of their faces due to increased exposure to sunlight while driving. Always be diligent about sunscreen, and remember to shield your face while driving.

3) Eat Spinach and Mangoes to Reverse Sun Damage

Sun damage is one of the most common tip-offs to age: drying out the skin and deepening wrinkles. Experts say that anytime you get even a slight sunburn you’ve done significant damage to your skin. Fruits like watermelon and mangoes and veggies like spinach and sweet potatoes are high in Vitamin A and help repair skin cells.

4) Take Omega-3 DHA Supplement for Brain Health

Memory loss not only makes us less efficient, it signals an aging brain. A study published last year in the journal Alzheimer’s and Dementia, known as the MIDAS study, found that taking Omega-3 DHA supplements took three years off the brain, improving memory and learning skills. Researchers believe it may also reduce the likelihood of developing Alzheimer’s or dementia.

5) Keep Working to Stimulate Mind

The brain is at the center of the aging battle and needs to be stimulated to stay young, experts say. Activity, purpose, social engagement and intense focusing all help you stay mentally sharp. Staying in the workforce longer will activate the brain, in addition to doing puzzles, learning new subjects and keeping socially active.

6) Cut Coffee and Soda

Dull skin and graying hair will instantly add a decade or more to your perceived age. Skin and hair experts advise increasing your water intake and cutting back on diuretics like coffee and soda, which are hair killers. Furthermore, the acidity in coffee will burn up calcium and create redness in the skin.

7)) Use Creams with Glycolic Acid or Retinol

A faded complexion is one of the first signs of prematurely aging skin, says dermatologist Audrey Kunin. Luckily, topical ingredients like buffered glycolic acid and retinol can rapidly improve the look and texture of skin by removing buildup of dry skin, smoothing out fine lines, improving discoloration and also helping to trigger collagen production.

8) Stay Away From Red Meats and Processed Foods

Saturated fats, white flour and sugars found in many red meats and processed foods will pack on the pounds and come out in your skin. According to Eric Braverman, neurologist and author of Younger (Sexier) You, extra body fat--usually inserted on the belly and triceps with age--will trigger other organs to begin aging prematurely. Staying lean with proper exercise and diet will keep you living longer and looking younger.

9) Lather Up the Hand Lotion

“Most people are unaware that the delicate skin on your hands shows the aging process extremely quickly and often makes you appear older than you are,” says Bernstein. Drinking lots of water, eating fruits rich in antioxidants, wearing sunscreen and lathering up every day with a good hand lotion will help your hands stay true to your age.

10) Tame The Stress Beast

Experts say many of us exceed healthy stress levels, which will eventually exhaust the body and wreak havoc on internal systems. Taking your allotted vacation days, sleeping seven hours each night, meditation and exercise will help to cleanse the ageing stress toxins.
