Why Sea Vegetables Are Healthy to Eat

Image
This is a time when taking care of your health and immune system is more important than ever, there's one superfood you may not even have in your diet: Sea veggies. WE have all  eaten those bits of seaweed in your miso soup, or wrapped around your sushi roll. But there is actually a wide variety of green, brown, and red seaweed or edible marine algae that fall into the sea vegetables category. And they are bursting with nutrients, some of which you just can't get from land vegetables . What are sea vegetables? Sea vegetables and their various species go way beyond the dehydrated seaweed snack packs you may find at the grocery store. The term refers to  edible marine algae , which includes some of the most primitive life forms on Earth and can be unicellular (microscopic) or multicellular. Seaweed is a subset of this enormous category of thousands of species.  These organisms aren't plants, even though they resemble them. They have no root system because t...

If you’re like setting powder, however, you may not be using it to its full potential. How many times have you taken a  translucent powder  and quickly applied it all over your face only to be left with a subtle  white cast  or a powdery finish? That’s where tinted setting powders come in.After reading and doing alot of makeup on sets I  learned about when and how to use tinted setting powders. Keep reading to find out so you can get a flawless makeup look every time.  When Should You Use a Translucent Setting Powder?  Translucent powder is a white powder that’s sheer and applies without any pigment or coverage on the face.

Allantoin Helps Scarring

Image
My favorite skincare  Algallure Allantoin:  Derived from plants, is a gentle moisturizer (ideal for sensitive skin) that also helps improve skin’s smoothness, and promotes healing. Especially beneficial for facial and acne scarring. Promotes cell longevity, which helps combat visible signs of aging. Fun Fact:  Allantoin is derived by calming chamomile, sugar beets and wheat sprouts! I have done some extensive research on this ingredient because one of my favorite skincare has it in its products. I have seen some amazing results and I needed to really look into what they have in their skincare. I have written articles on algae and vitamin c. Both ingredients are in  Algallure Skin Care .This ingredient is used as a moisturize to treat or prevent dry, rough, scaly,  itchy skin  and minor  skin  irritations (e.g.,  diaper rash , skin burns from  radiation therapy ). Emollients are substances that soften and moisturize the ski...

Tsukune (Japanese Meatballs)

Image
HOW TO MAKE TSUKUNE (A SIMPLIFIED VERSION) I use  ginger juice  (from grated ginger) and  grated shallot  to make my meatballs extra flavorful. With only  7 ingredients , the meatballs are seasoned with toasted sesame oil, scallions, grated shallot, ginger juice from grated ginger, coconut aminos, egg yolk, and some salt and white pepper. Combine all the ingredients with ground chicken and stir the mixture until it is very sticky. This step helps the meatballs come together since there are no binding ingredients (bread crumbs or starch). The mixture is quite soft and easy to fall apart. Use a  cookie scoop  to help you form the meatballs. Then grease your hand with some olive oil to shape the meatballs into a smooth surface. Pan fry a small amount of mixture first to test the flavor. IF PAN-FRYING Lightly flatten the meatballs into small patties (about ½-inch thick). Pan fry them with avocado oil about 4 minutes total and brush with t...
