Slovenski kotiček

Imate na obrazu temne lise, ki so nastale “čez noč”, pa nimate pojma, zakaj? So vsako leto temnejše in nočejo stran? Hiperpigmentacija v večini primerov ni nevarna, a predstavlja zoprno estetsko nadlogo, njeno odstranjevanje pa je izjemno dolgotrajno. Sama s hiperpigmentacijo živim že dobrih 20 let, zato lahko iz prve roke povem, kako sem se je lotila. V tem članku bom razložila, zakaj nastanejo pigmentni madeži in kako odpraviti temne lise oziroma starostne pege na obrazu.

Potovanje po ZDA: Od San Francisca do Las Vegasa – 1. del

Potovanja Slovenski kotiček

Združene države Amerike so ena mojih najljubših in tudi najpogosteje obiskanih destinacij. Od mojega prvega New Yorka leta 2005, pa do danes, ko sem bila v ZDA že več kot 10-krat, se je spremenila samo ena stvar. Namesto velikih mest zdaj raje obiskujem nacionalne parke, ki so res vrhunsko doživetje za ljubitelje narave. Tokratna pot naju je sicer vodila čez nekaj že videnih lokacij, a potovanje od San Francisca do Las Vegasa ponovno ni razočaralo.

Slovenski kotiček

Zadnje čase so mediji polni senzacionalnih naslovov, ki namigujejo, da so umetna sladila potencialno rakotvorna. Članki, ki so dostikrat napisani samo zato, da pritegnejo klike, ne razložijo pa celotnega ozadja, se nanašajo na nedavna priporočila, ki jih je izdala Svetovna zdravstvena organizacija (WHO). Le-ta po novem odsvetuje uporabo intenzivnih sladil, med katerimi je označila aspartam kot potencialno rakotvoren. Hiter pregled pokaže, da večina izdelkov s sladili vsebuje prav aspartam ali npr. sukralozo. Kaj nam je torej storiti? So sladila res nevarna za uživanje?
