First, let me explain ACV. ACV stands for Apple Cider Vinegar — it’s a vinegar made from fermented apple juice. ACV is reported to have a range of potential benefits, and while vinegar has been used for centuries, ACV really took off around 2017. Much of its reported benefits, such as for weight loss or to manage blood glucose levels, are not backed by a lot of research (note the Healthline article I link to above just says it may aid weight loss, may help lower blood sugar levels etc). But there’s enough going for ACV that many people take it, and in the years since it’s become popular, many people report to have gained all kinds of health benefits from it.

Now full disclaimer here guys. I can't lay claim to making those incredibly roti's all by myself. I used my trusty new Rotimatic Machine to try my hand at whipping up some healthy ones. I used just Extra Virgin Olive Oil, wholemeal flour and water. The machine mixes it together in the right proportions, kneads the dough and even cooks the roti to your desired thickness (I like mine thin). It's incredibly clever and SO much healthier than your usual takeout. I love that I'm in total control of the ingredients too. There's so many unhealthy versions out there at restaurants and take-outs. No hidden additives, chemicals, or preservatives. YES! It also works with gluten-free flour for sensitive tummies AND even makes pizza bases. Blown away. Okay, before I get any more excited, let's keep it simple with those Roti's to begin.

Don’t Limit Sunscreen to the Beach Most people are pretty good about slathering on the sunscreen when they put on their swimsuits. But you’re exposed to the sun every day—not just when hitting up the beach or the pool. So don’t just stick your sunscreen in your beach bag. Put it in your purse. Apply sunscreen any time you’re going to be out in the sun for a significant period. Ideally, you should put on sunscreen every day, but we realize that this just isn’t realistic for most people. So at the very least, be sure to put some on if you’re going to spend more than 30 minutes outside. Whether you’re doing yard work, taking your kids to the park, or going on a long walk, put sunscreen on any exposed skin before you leave the house.

1. Excessive Fatigue If you have been training often, you might start experiencing some heavy fatigue from it. During these times, it might be better just to go home and get some extra sleep instead of pushing yourself through a so-so workout. One skipped workout is not going to hurt you in the long run. 2. Injuries that Don’t Seem to Be Healing This happens especially in runners and people who love to do strength training. A sore shoulder or sore knees just don’t seem to fade away after a few weeks. If this is the case, then take some time off to let it heal. You would be better off to do this now before it turns into a more serious injury.

Warming up gently prepares your body for exercise, as it slowly raises your heart rate and gets the blood flowing. In addition, it will improve flexibility in your joints and muscles. Think of your body like your car - you don’t want to take it out of the
