When Your Work Isn’t Work Anymore
When Your Work Isn’t Work Anymore
Happy International Fun at Work Day! Since it’s also April Fool’s Day, the opportunities for innocent fun are endless. But why should fun at work be limited to just one day of the year? Where’s the fun in that?
Most people know the feeling that comes from working a job they hate. Watching the clock, stretching out breaks, counting your paper clips, hate.
But do you recognize it when your work isn’t work anymore? Look for these auspicious signs that you’re doing what you love:
- 1. You aren’t looking to get away from work to go play.
- 2. You get excited to start the day, pretty much every day.
- 3. For the most part, life feels pretty darn terrific.
- 4. You can’t wait to finish, in order to start again.
One more thing: If you feel like your current job fits the description of “work,” then check out the entrepreneur options with Jeunesse! Life is short — spend it doing what you love!

Caffeine Packs a Punch — in a Really Good Way
Caffeine Packs a Punch — in a Really Good Way
Inside one little coffee bean is a powerhouse of awesome. Here are some pretty impressive things you might not know about caffeine:
Memory BoostThere is a reason college kids are the hottest target of the ever-increasing energy drink market with consumption steadily increasing since 1997 — it boosts their exams! This was recently proven when a team of scientists at Johns Hopkins University1 found that caffeine can enhance memory up to 24 hours after consumption.
Dr. Michael Yassa, lead researcher and professor of psychological and brain sciences at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, reports: “We’ve always known that caffeine has cognitive-enhancing effects, but its particular effects on strengthening memories and making them resistant to forgetting have never been examined in detail in humans. We report for the first time a specific effect of caffeine on reducing forgetting over 24 hours.”
Dehydration? Nope.
Caffeine doesn’t actually dehydrate you. As caffeine is largely consumed in beverages, you’re hydrating while consuming. In fact, research has already studied the effects of caffeine-related hydration. According to a 2004 study published in the International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism, caffeine didn’t hinder hydration among athletes who consumed caffeinated beverages to rehydrate throughout practices in the heat. As with all things, enjoy caffeine consumption in moderation, and be sure to keep consuming those eight glasses of water a day.

Athletic Performance
Consuming caffeine about an hour before your workout may up your game. According to an American College of Sports Medicine report, test subjects displayed significant increases in alertness and decreases in reaction time. Additionally, caffeine has been shown to reduce your perception of effort. With a little caffeine boost, maybe one hour on the stair-climber won’t seem so bad!

Not all Caffeine is Created Equal
Many mainstream soft drinks and energy drinks use synthetic caffeine at 50–200mg per can, which can give you a sudden jolt as it is absorbed fairly quickly into your bloodstream. This can lead to the negative associations of caffeine consumption you may have heard of. Further, synthetic caffeine is often added to a mix of high fructose corn syrup and artificial colors — not a very appetizing brew.

Nevo™’s naturally sourced caffeine is comprised of green tea leaves, guarana seeds and yerba mate leaves. These sources of caffeine tend to be absorbed into the bloodstream more slowly than synthetic caffeine. This natural caffeine blend results in a more sustained, longer lasting, and less “jittery” form of energy — without the common up/down spikes that come from many mainstream energy drinks.
With four delicious energy blends to choose from — peach mango, mixed berry, lemon ginger and acai grape — Jeunesse makes it easy to choose an energy drink that may well represent the smartest (and most delicious) on the market today. Nevo truly is The Smart Choice.

3 Skin Care Tips for Winter
3 Skin Care Tips for Winter
Dec 22, 2015
In the Northern Hemisphere, the first day of winter is December 22. While this day has the fewest hours of sunlight during the whole year, winter sunrays can still be harmful and lead to premature aging. How can you enjoy the winter months and still protect your skin? Read our 3 skin care tips for winter!
1. Know the dangers of too much sun exposure
While being outdoors during winter has many health benefits, too much sun exposure can lead to premature aging (wrinkles, age spots, discoloration, sagginess, etc.) and even skin cancer. Common skin cancers include melanoma, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. According to WebMD.com, an estimated 40%–50% of fair-skinned people who live to be 65 will develop at least one skin cancer. While skin cancer is treatable, by limiting your sun exposure now, you can help protect your body’s largest organ for many years to come.
2. Learn how to protect yourself against the sun
The sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays are the most harmful to your skin. Many people think that UV rays are strongest during the summer months. Not true! Dr. Quenby Erickson, a dermatologist and skin cancer surgeon at St. Louis University Hospital, says they are equally intense during all daylight hours throughout the year. For those who enjoy winter sports — especially skiing — Dr. Erickson says it’s important to wear wraparound sunglasses, a mask and sunscreen on all exposed skin. Remember, sunscreen does not block all UV rays. Use wisely and responsibly.
3. Begin a skin care routine to help reverse the signs of aging
Dermatologists all agree that establishing a skin care routine for cleansing, moisturizing and protecting the skin can help reverse the aging process. Looking for anti-aging products that can restore youthful vitality to the skin? Meet Luminesce™.
