People with sensitive skin should be careful with the use of allergenic fragrances such as hexylcinnamal, linalool, benzyl salicylate, butylphenyl methylpropional, eugenol and geraniol. They may also react to essential oils and fragrances in natural cosmetics and should generally use fragrance-free products.

Today is healthy food day! That's why we provide you with healthy alternatives to everyday food products.

Replace White Rice with Quinoa
White rice isn’t necessarily bad for you, but it is higher in calories and carbs than quinoa, plus quinoa will give you an extra boost of fiber, protein and minerals like iron and zinc.

Kombuchas as a good alternative to replace coffee
Kombucha can provide a gentle caffeine boost, but its biggest healthy benefit is that it is full of natural probiotics that support gut health.

Replace breadcrumbs, flour or even eggs with chia seeds
Chia seeds are a whole-grain food with high health value and free of gluten. Chia seeds can be a great replacement of bread in a lot of dishes, for example it can be used instead of breadcrumbs in recipes like meatballs. It can be used as a flour replacement in baking, and when it is highly hydrated it can be used as a perfect egg replacement also in baking.

Replace white sugar with stevia
Studies have shown that natural stevia is a safe, naturally derived, calorie-free sugar substitute, and it can be used to sweeten both food and beverages.
