If we’re friends IRL, then you know I’m obsessed with working out. I can probably be found at the gym doing a HIIT training, Spin, yoga, or cardio dance class at least five times a week before 8 a.m. And if I’ve learned anything from Taylor Swift, it’s that you can leave the gym looking fresh. But if only having between 20 to 30 minutes to get ready before work stresses you out, then keep reading to learn all of the tricks I’ve discovered to help you clean up quickly!

1. Moisturize wet skin
As soon as you step out of the steam and into your towel, smooth on some body lotion. This helps the product absorb any moisture left on your skin, ensuring your limbs feel even silkier than normal. Plus, how annoying is it to wiggle into jeans with lotion on your legs? Do it ahead of time to avoid sticky denim!

2. Take off mascara residue
Quickly get rid of eyeliner and mascara smudges without makeup remover. Dab on a bit of face lotion with a cotton swab and gently rub it on the area. It should work like a cold cream and take the smears right off.

3. Apply your face mask
If you’re still red from the workout, try a quick peel. I like the Tata Harper Resurfacing Mask ($55) because it’s natural and gentle enough for sensitive skin—plus, it goes on clear so no one will know you’re wearing it. Leave this on for about 10 minutes to purify pores and shed the top layer of dead skin. Insta glow!

4. Immediately follow with serum and face cream
It takes almost half an hour for your moisturizer to dry. Applying foundation while the base cream is still drying can cause it to slip right off. The solution: allow your serum, moisturizer, SPF, and eye cream to sink in while you do your hair. Then, move on to your makeup.

5. DIY a shower cap
No shower cap? No problem. Grab those plastic bags most gyms supply for dirty clothes and wrap it around your head to keep the water off. A dry-towel-turned-turban works as well.

6. Just wash your bangs
Even when my hair is a bit sweaty, I usually don’t wash it. Instead, I work with the texture and grit the dirty hair gives me. Leaving it wavy in these situations is also essential. To make sure it looks clean, I leave out the front “bangs” part of my mane and rinse the section with shampoo, conditioner, and water. I blow it dry with a round brush. Pull the rest back into a low ponytail or bun if you’re really self-conscious about it.

7. Blow-dry away from the showers
It is more difficult to dry your hair in moist environments. So pick the blow dryer that is as far away from the steam room and showers as possible. Your strands will dry quicker and look less frizzy!

8. Create a hair product cocktail
There’s a very specific three-step routine I do with my dirty hair when I want to refresh it, add volume, and mask smells. It’s all explained here with easy-to-follow GIFs. But know that you need to pack dry shampoo, texture spray, and hair oil in your gym bag.

9. Skip the bronzer
Powders can stick to dewy skin and look awkward. Instead, go for a creamy contouring stick like Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow ($45), which will give you a bronzed look while melting into your skin.

10. Play up your eyes
If your cheeks are still red (totally happens to me!), avoid a bright lip. It can draw more attention to your rouge cheeks. Instead, play up your eyelashes by curling them and then prepping them with a wand like Stila Lash Stunner Extreme Lash Primer ($26). Follow with your favorite black mascara, wiggling it in between your lashes so it looks like eyeliner (and you can skip that, too). Luscious lashes make you appear “done” without having to wear much on your face. Bonus points if you also fill in your brows!

Study: Tissue Heart Valves Seem Best for Middle-Aged Patients

WEDNESDAY, Jan. 13, 2016 (HealthDay News) — Middle-aged heart valve replacement patients may have better outcomes if they receive valves made from animal tissue rather than metal, researchers report.

The investigators analyzed 13 studies that compared metal and tissue valves in patients aged 40 to 70 who had aortic valve replacement.

Heart valves are designed to allow blood to flow in only one direction through the heart.

The two types of valves studied have different risks and benefits, the authors of the report explained.

Metal (mechanical) valves last longer but are more likely to cause blood clots. So patients have to take blood-thinning drugs for the rest of their lives, which can increase the risk of major bleeding, the study authors said.

Tissue (bioprosthetic) valves are less likely to cause blood clots, but they may need to be replaced at some point, the authors added.

Fifteen years after receiving new heart valves, there were no differences in rates of survival, stroke or infection of the heart lining between the two groups, the researchers found.

However, patients with tissue valves were twice as likely to undergo another operation to replace worn-out valves, while those with metal valves were twice as likely to have a major bleed or a blood clot. The findings were published online Jan. 12 in the Annals of Thoracic Surgery.

While the report authors said valve choice should depend on the individual patient, they added in a journal news release that people have a higher risk of death from major bleeding than from re-operation to replace a worn-out valve.

“We combined the best available evidence comparing mechanical valves versus bioprosthetic valves to determine the risks and benefits to patients following surgery, depending on the type of valve they received,” researcher James Wu, from the University of Sydney in Australia, said in the news release.

“We hope that our results can give future patients needing aortic valve replacement more information to help them choose the appropriate replacement valve for their condition,” he added.

One expert not involved with the study noted that improvements have been made to tissue valves in recent years that enhance their durability, while strides have also been made in designing better replacement options if tissue valves fail.

“With recent advances in valve technologies and replacement options, current trends have demonstrated an increased use of [tissue] valves in middle-aged adults, with longer-term data on the horizon,” said Dr. Bruce Rutkin.

Rutkin is interventional director of Transcatheter Valve Therapies at North Shore University Hospital, in Manhasset, N.Y.

New Blood Test Could Detect Melanoma’s Spread Earlier: Study

WEDNESDAY, Jan. 13, 2016 (HealthDay News) — A new blood test might improve doctors’ ability to track the spread of advanced melanoma skin cancer, according to results of a small, preliminary study.

The test monitors blood levels of DNA fragments from dead cancer cells, and is more effective than the current test at tracking the severity and spread of advanced melanoma, the researchers said.

“Our study results show that circulating tumor DNA is a superior blood test for evaluating and tracking progression of metastatic melanoma,” study senior investigator Dr. David Polsky, from NYU Langone Medical Center in New York City, said in a center news release.

Currently, a test that measures blood levels of an enzyme called lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is done to guide management of the cancer. LDH levels rise during aggressive tumor growth. However, levels of LDH also rise due to other diseases and biological functions, the study authors pointed out.

The new test assesses levels of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) released into the blood when tumor cells die, the researchers said.

The study included 31 patients with inoperable advanced (metastatic) melanoma who had both tests done.

The study found that blood levels of ctDNA were elevated in 80 percent of patients about to undergo treatment for the advanced melanoma. Blood levels of LDH were elevated in just 30 percent of such patients, the study showed.

Also, the ctDNA blood test detected cancer recurrence — confirmed by X-ray or CT scan — in 85 percent of patients tested and undergoing treatment. The LDH blood test detected 54 percent of such cases, the researchers said.

Previous studies have suggested that ctDNA blood testing may also help monitor progression of breast and colon cancers, Polsky, a dermatologist, said in the news release.

The new study findings are published in the January issue of the journal Molecular Oncology.

Alcohol Ads Should Be a No-See on TV for Kids

WEDNESDAY, Jan. 13, 2016 (HealthDay News) — Children and teens would see far fewer alcohol ads on TV if the alcohol industry tightened — and followed — its own advertising guidelines, a new study suggests.

The industry is self-regulated in terms of advertising, and in 2003 introduced guidelines that limit ads to media whose audience is almost three-quarters adult, age 21 and older.

But the new study found, between 2005 and 2012, about one in eight alcohol ads on TV shows seen by children and teens did not comply with those industry guidelines.

While some alcohol companies have been using the guidelines — known as no-buy lists — to guide their advertising, others have not, according to the study, published in the January issue of the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs. These lists put certain TV shows off-limits due to their mostly underage audiences.

“Since 2005, kids have been exposed more than 15 billion times to alcohol advertisements that do not meet industry guidelines,” said lead researcher Craig Ross, a research assistant professor at Boston University School of Public Health. He’s also a consultant to the Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth at Johns Hopkins School of Public Health.

“Regardless of how no-buy lists have been implemented in the past, there is clearly room for improvement,” he said in a journal news release.

The researchers assessed the potential impact of a set of new no-buy list guidelines they had designed. They included not placing ads on programs that haven’t met the industry’s own guidelines in the past year and during times when there is a higher proportion of younger viewers.

The guidelines also suggested that alcohol makers be more selective about advertising on low-rated cable shows.

If the new criteria had been in place, it would have prevented nearly all noncompliant TV ads seen by children and teens, according to the researchers.

Ad restrictions alone can’t solve underage drinking, but are an important step because ads help shape youngsters’ opinions about alcohol, Ross noted.

“There’s a growing body of research on the effects of alcohol advertising on underage drinking,” he said. “Ads can help create positive attitudes toward drinking, promoting drinking initiation and excessive drinking.”

Male Sexual Enhancement Supplements Often Ineffective, Possibly Harmful: Study

WEDNESDAY, Jan. 13, 2016 (HealthDay News) — There’s no proof that over-the-counter sexual enhancement supplements for men work, and some are potentially dangerous, a new study reports.

Many men seeking medical help for sexual health issues report using dietary supplements. But with little regulation of dosage or ingredients, the health effects of these products are unknown, the researchers said in background notes.

And many of these products contain traces of an ingredient used in drugs like Viagra that can be dangerous to men with certain health problems, the researchers added.

The researchers identified top-selling male sexual-help supplements and analyzed the ingredients, including those in products marketed to enhance erections, desire and sexual performance.

“While certain natural supplements we reviewed show promise for improving mild sexual dysfunction, they lack robust human evidence,” study senior author Dr. Ryan Terlecki, an associate professor of urology at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston, Salem, N.C., said in a center news release.

“In addition, because of concerns that some products are impure or weak, we do not routinely recommend these products to our patients,” he added.

Some of the most commonly used products include horny goat weed, ginseng, DHEA, Ginkgo biloba, fenugreek and maca, the researchers found.

For many of the products, there’s no scientific evidence to support claims they can improve libido, erectile dysfunction or sexual performance, the researchers said.

They also found that some of the supposedly “natural” products have traces of phosphodiesterase-5-inhibitors (PDE5Is), the medication found in prescription drugs — such as Viagra — used to treat impotence.

One study reviewed by the researchers found that 81 percent of tested samples of over-the-counter male sexual enhancement products bought in the United States and Asia contained PDE5Is.

“PDE5Is cannot yet be legally sold over the counter in this country,” Terlecki said. “Men who use these medications without a physician’s supervision run the risk of taking them inappropriately. Patients with advanced heart disease, for example, or who take nitrates, such as nitroglycerin, should not use PDE5Is as it may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. Likewise, men with severe liver impairment or end-stage kidney disease requiring dialysis should avoid these products.”

Also, men who take medications such as Flomax (tamsulosin), terazosin or doxazosin to treat an enlarged prostate are at risk for dizziness and falls if they take PDE5Is at the same time, the researchers said.

The study was published recently in the Journal of Sexual Medicine.

How to reduce fluid retention

 

Do you suffer from bloating and puffiness? Fluid retention could be the culprit and here's how you can naturally prevent it.

According to naturopath Rebekah Russell from Blackmores Australia, the following may help reduce fluid retention:

Dandelion leaf: This has been used traditionally for hundreds of years for its diuretic action. It can be enjoyed as a tea.

Vitamin B6: This may help relieve fluid retention and other symptoms of premenstrual syndrome, including breast tenderness, mood changes, irritability and fatigue.

A broad-spectrum multivitamin: This ensures you meet the daily requirements of vitamins such as B1 (thiamine), B6, B5, D3, and the mineral calcium. These nutrients all aid body processes that are important for removing excess fluid.

Grape seed extract: Studies show this can help in the management of fluid retention associated with venous insufficiency, premenstrual syndrome, and the use of hormonal replacement therapy (HRT). It also helps relieve fluid retention, heaviness, pain and itching of the legs.

Ginkgo biloba: This is traditionally used to improve peripheral circulation (to the legs and other extremities), so it can be beneficial for people who experience fluid retention as a symptom of varicose veins.

NEXT: Fuel your body for exercise.

Dementia Drug May Lower Risk of Falls Among Parkinson’s Patients

TUESDAY, Jan. 12, 2016 (HealthDay News) — A widely used dementia drug shows potential in reducing the risk of falls among Parkinson’s patients, new research suggests.

“With the degeneration of dopamine-producing nerve cells, people with Parkinson’s often have issues with unsteadiness when walking. As part of the condition, they also have lower levels of acetylcholine, a chemical which helps us to concentrate — making it extremely difficult to pay attention to walking,” said study lead author Emily Henderson, from the University of Bristol in England.

The study included 130 people with Parkinson’s disease who had fallen in the past year. Half took the drug rivastigmine (Exelon), while the other half took a placebo.

After eight months, those who took the rivastigmine capsules were much steadier when walking and 45 percent less likely to fall than those who took the placebo, according to the researchers.

The study, published Jan. 12 in The Lancet Neurology, was funded by Parkinson’s UK.

Parkinson’s disease is a chronic and progressive movement disorder marked by tremors, stiffness and loss of coordination. About 70 percent of Parkinson’s patients fall at least once a year and one-third have repeated falls, increasing their risk of broken bones and hospitalization, the researchers said.

“We already know that rivastigmine works to treat dementia by preventing the breakdown of acetylcholine [in Parkinson’s patients], however our study shows for the first time that it can also improve regularity of walking, speed and balance. This is a real breakthrough in reducing the risk of falls for people with Parkinson’s,” Henderson said in a Parkinson’s UK news release.

One U.S. doctor added a caveat, however.

Dr. Andrew Feigin, director of the Experimental Therapeutics Unit at the Feinstein Institute for Medical Research in Manhasset, N.Y., said the finding suggests “that rivastigmine may reduce falls in these patients, though the difference between the rivastigmine and placebo groups may have been driven by increases in falls in the placebo group as opposed to decreases in the rivastigmine group.

“Nonetheless, if validated in a larger trial, these findings could have significant implications for the treatment of gait abnormalities and falls in advanced [Parkinson’s disease] patients,” Feigin added.

Arthur Roach, director of research at Parkinson’s UK, stressed the importance of preventing falls among Parkinson’s patients.

“People affected by Parkinson’s, their [caregivers], and health and social care professionals have said that preventing falls and improving balance is the biggest unmet need for people living with the condition, other than finding a cure,” Roach said in the news release.

“Things that may be simple to us, such as walking upstairs or getting up in the middle of the night to get a glass of water or go to the toilet, are much harder and more dangerous when you could easily fall. You risk breaking bones and then needing an emergency hospital admission,” he explained.

“This trial shows that there may be drugs already available, being used for other purposes, that can be tested to help treat Parkinson’s. This takes us a step closer to improving the quality of life and finding better treatments for people with Parkinson’s,” Roach said.

Spike in Newborn Drug-Withdrawal Tied to Prenatal Painkiller Use

TUESDAY, Jan. 12, 2016 (HealthDay News) — More babies are being born with drug withdrawal syndrome, possibly due to increased use of powerful prescription painkillers by pregnant women, according to the director of the U.S. National Institute on Drug Abuse.

It’s estimated that 14 percent to 22 percent of pregnant women in the United States are prescribed narcotic (“opioid”) painkillers. These drugs include brands such as OxyContin and Percocet. In addition, there has reportedly been an increase in the rate of painkiller abuse among pregnant women.

Between 2000 and 2009, the incidence of drug withdrawal syndrome among newborns — also called neonatal abstinence syndrome — rose from 1.2 to 3.4 per 1,000 live births, NIDA Director Dr. Nora Volkow reported in an article published in the Jan. 12 issue of the BMJ.

“The steep increase in the number of opioid prescriptions dispensed in the United States has been associated with a parallel rise in their misuse, fatal overdoses and heroin use,” she wrote. “More recently, attention has been focused on the large increase in the number of infants born with neonatal abstinence syndrome.”

Volkow stated in a journal news release that “high prescribing rates of opioids to women during pregnancy have probably contributed to recent increases in neonatal abstinence syndrome.”

It’s not known how narcotic exposure in the womb affects babies’ brains, but studies in rodents have linked it to central nervous system birth defects, she pointed out.

Other studies have found an association between narcotic use during pregnancy and birth defects, and suggest that drug exposure in the womb could interfere with attachment between infant and mother, Volkow said. Also, mental impairment has been reported in children whose mothers misused narcotics during pregnancy.

Volkow suggested that painkiller prescriptions to pregnant women be restricted to those with severe pain that cannot be controlled with other treatments, and only used for a short time.

If long-term use is necessary — such as for women being treated for heroin addiction — then patients should be carefully assessed and monitored to reduce the risk of overdose, misuse and drug withdrawal syndrome in their babies, Volkow added.

Pre-Pregnancy Potato Consumption Linked to Gestational Diabetes

By Dennis Thompson
HealthDay Reporter

TUESDAY, Jan. 12, 2016 (HealthDay News) — Women who eat lots of potatoes before pregnancy appear more likely to develop gestational diabetes, a new study suggests.

A woman’s risk of gestational diabetes seemed to increase by 27 percent if she regularly consumed between two and four cups of potatoes a week before pregnancy. Five or more cups a week appeared to increase risk by 50 percent, even after researchers accounted for pre-pregnancy obesity and other potential risk factors, the study found.

“The more women consumed potatoes, the greater risk they had for gestational diabetes,” said senior author Dr. Cuilin Zhang, a senior investigator with the U.S. National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. “Potatoes are regarded as a kind of vegetable, but not all vegetables are healthy.”

However, it’s important to note that this study only showed an association between potato consumption and the risk of gestational diabetes — a type of diabetes that develops during pregnancy. The study wasn’t designed to prove cause-and-effect.

Findings from the study were released online Jan. 12 in the BMJ.

Potatoes are the third most commonly consumed food crop in the world, after rice and wheat. About 35 percent of U.S. women in their childbearing years eat potatoes daily, according to background information in the study.

Potatoes are rich in vitamin C, potassium and fiber. Unfortunately, potatoes also contain a significant amount of simple carbohydrates, which are easily broken down and absorbed into the bloodstream, Zhang said.

Eating a cup of potatoes can send blood sugar levels skyrocketing, on par with swigging a can of cola or munching a handful of jelly beans, according to Harvard nutrition experts.

Elevated blood sugar levels can promote insulin resistance and contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes, Zhang said.

Many women also eat potatoes prepared as French fries, and the oils used for frying can increase insulin resistance when consumed, she added.

To investigate the effect of potato consumption on pregnancy, Zhang and her colleagues gathered data from nearly 16,000 women participating in a national health study of female nurses.

During a 10-year follow-up, the research team found almost 900 cases of gestational diabetes that occurred during almost 22,000 single-birth pregnancies.

Checking food questionnaires filed every other year by the nurses, the investigators found an association between eating potatoes and the risk for gestational diabetes.

The researchers also estimated that women could lower their risk of gestational diabetes by 9 to 12 percent if they substituted two servings of potatoes every week with other vegetables or whole grains.

Gestational diabetes can cause health problems for newborns. They may suffer from low blood sugar and have breathing problems right after birth, and have a higher chance of dying before or soon after birth, according to the U.S. National Institutes of Health.

“Women planning for pregnancy should reduce their consumption of potatoes,” Zhang said. “What moms eat can potentially affect the health of their babies.”

Dr. Raul Artal, an obstetrician/gynecologist with the Saint Louis University School of Medicine, agreed that cutting back on potatoes is a wise thing for a woman of reproductive age to do.

“The key word is judicious,” Artal said. “Eat judiciously. It’s OK to eat some potatoes, but not too many.”
