Natural Oils

Natural oils contain hundreds of organic constituents such as hormones, vitamins and other natural elements that are beneficial to the skin. Natural oils fall into two general categories: essential oils and carrier or base oils. Essential oils are volatile compounds found in plants. They give fruits, flowers, herbs and spices their fragrance and flavor. Obtained by distillation or expression, essential oils are highly concentrated and used at a very low concentration. Carrier oils, such as almond, sunflower, olive, walnut and other oils exist in higher concentration in cosmetics and when applied directly to the skin nourish, soften and protect it. Diluting essential oils makes them good bases. Oils are highly penetrating. They easily enter through a cell wall delivering essential vitamins, oxygen and nutrients. This helps stimulate cell metabolism and the regeneration process. The ability of oils to penetrate and carry nutrients through the cell wall to the cell nucleus can prevent cell deterioration, which can lead to infections and diseases.

Working the Night Shift

Try to limit night shift work, if that is possible. If working the night shift, the following tips may help people sleep better and avoid sleepiness:

• Increase the total amount of sleep by adding naps and lengthening the amount of time allotted for sleep.
• Use bright lights in the workplace.
• Minimize shift changes so that the biological clock of the body can adjust to a nighttime work schedule.
• Get rid of sound and light distractions in the bedroom during daytime sleep.
• Use caffeine only during the first part of a shift to promote alertness at night.

If sleep does not come during the day and all else fails, talk with a doctor to see if it would be wise to use prescribed, short-acting sleeping pills to help sleep during the day.

Dealing with Jet Lag

Eastward travel generally causes more severe jet lag than westward travel because traveling east requires people to shorten the day and the biological clock is better able to adjust to a longer day than a shorter day. Fortunately for globetrotters, a few preventive measures and treatments seem to help some people relieve jet lag.
Adjust the biological clock. Several days before traveling to a new time zone, gradually shift sleeping patterns and eating times to coincide with those at the final eastern destination. People can also adjust the biological clock by using light therapy. This involves exposure to special lights, many times brighter than ordinary household light, for several hours near to the new wake up time. Alternatively, after arrival, spend a lot of time outdoors to make sure the body gets the light cues it needs to adjust to the new time zone.
Avoid alcohol and caffeine. Although it may be tempting to drink alcohol to relieve the stress of travel and make it easier to fall asleep, people more likely to sleep lighter and wake up in the middle of the night when the effects of the alcohol wear off. Caffeine can help keep people awake longer, but caffeine can also make it harder for people to fall asleep if its effects have not worn off by bed time.
What about melatonin? The body produces the melatonin hormone to make the body drowsy. Melatonin builds up in the body as the night progresses and decreases when daylight arrives.
Melatonin is available as an over-the-counter supplement. Because melatonin is safe when used over a period of days or weeks and seems to contribute to feeling sleepy, it is a treatment for jet lag. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of melatonin is controversial and its safety when used over a prolonged period is unclear. Some studies find that taking melatonin supplements before bedtime for several days after arrival in a new time zone can make it easier to fall asleep at the proper time. Other studies find that melatonin does not help to relieve jet lag.
Be aware that adjusting to a new time zone may take several days. If traveling away for just a few days, it may be better to stick to the original sleep and wake times as much as possible, rather than adjusting the biological clock too many times in rapid succession.
