Recipe of the month(for your body)

Fruit Salad Body Mask

Get ready for the beach with this moisturizing and beautifying leg/body mask.

This may sound as if you're pouring a smoothie for the skin - and you are - but for good reason. Pineapple contains bromeliad, a protein-digestive enzyme which helps rid the skin of dead cells and dirt. It also counteracts histamines, has anti-inflammatory properties, and is a mild astringent.

Grapes are rich in PCOs which provide protection against harmful UV rays, and, are anti-oxidants. Bananas have loads of vitamins, calcium and essential nutrients which keep the skin smooth and soft. Kiwi is high in vitamin C and has enzymatic properties. Honeydew is both soothing and hydrating.

What you need :

  • 2 slices pineapple - rind removed
  • 1/2 med. honeydew melon - rind removed
  • 1 doz. green grapes
  • 1 med. banana - peeled
  • 1 med. kiwi fruit – peeled

Instructions:

Puree all ingredients in food processor. Mixture will be slightly lumpy. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Smooth onto body and/or face, leaving on for half an hour. This is an ideal treatment to use at poolside, where lounging is assuring. Rinse off with tepid water, or an outdoor shower.

Exercise of the Month

Jumping squats

We all know that lunges and squats are the best exercises for whole leg workout. This variation of the basic squat will bring you even better results.

  1. Stand with your feet shoulders width apart. Tighten your abs.
  2. Squad down till you’re your thighs are parallel to the floor and knees aligned over toes.
  3. Hold for few seconds.
  4. Jump up as high as you can and extend arms over your head.
  5. Lower down into another squat and repeat.

Do 3 sets of 15 squats each if able.
