Clean is one thing.


DOUBLE CLEAN is the new thing.
Introducing the Double Cleansing Method from Neutrogena,
for skin so clear, it glows from within.

STEP 1 Remove Surface Impurities

Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes


Ordinary cleansers may not thoroughly remove makeup
and oil. Only our patented formula is clinically proven to
remove 99.3% of even the most stubborn makeup to
prepare your skin for deeper cleansing.

STEP 2 Clean Deep Into Pores

Neutrogena Deep Clean Gentle Scrub


Oil and dirt trapped in pores can make skin look dull
and lead to breakouts. With gentle exfoliators and
Beta Hydroxy acid, our scrub removes 99.9%
of dirt and microtoxins to reveal clear skin
that glows from within.
Nothing works better.

And theyre sexy. When Marion Parke, a podiatrist with a penchant for beautiful
shoes, was hobbled by a few too many pairs, she decided to create her own line.
(Good thing, since the most recent data shows that high heelrelated injuries nearly
doubled in the decade from 2002 to 2012.) You would never know from the looks
of Parkes Lana sandals, at left, that their patent-pending insole includes four key
components: arch support to reduce muscle fatigue, a heel cup to improve stability,
lateral posting to help prevent ankle rolling, and medical-grade foam inside to
mold to the foot. These beauties are good to your dogs all day.

Plus your sweat session will feel even easier. In a study in


Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, researchers divvied
up a 24-minute cardio workout several ways, each with intervals
ranging from 30 seconds to two minutes. Though all the patterns added up to the same amount of work time, exercisers
who did intervals of one minute or less reported feeling less

Veggies are the latest to go under the knife in the nose-to-tail dining
trend. Peels and tops are full of nutrients and nuanced flavors.
So often, were throwing out the best part, says cook and farmers
market vendor Alana Chernila, the author of The Homemade Kitchen.
She likes to pair components of a vegetable in a single dish, as in
caramelized fennel topped with chopped fronds, or roasted carrots
drizzled with this savory pesto: In a food processor or a blender,
process 2 packed cups chopped carrot tops, 1 tablespoon lemon
juice, 1 chopped garlic clove, and a few pinches of salt. Add 14 cup
extra-virgin olive oil and process again until smooth. As for the peel
shavings, turn them into chips: Toss peels with olive oil, cumin,
and salt and roast at 425 for 6 to 7 minutes. Crispy and addictive!

Dark chocolate, you


can do no wrong:
Already known to be
high in antioxidants,
its now a proven
pick-me-up. When
researchers at
Northern Arizona
University took brain
scans of people who
had just eaten a
few ounces of cacaoladen dark chocolate,
the images showed
a boost in brain
activity associated
with attention and
focus that lasted for
about 90 minutes,
while those of subjects
who ate white chocolate or no chocolate
indicated a decrease.
Thanks to natural
stimulants, high-cacao
chocolate activates
parts of the brain
linked with attention
while suppressing
distraction, says lead
study author Larry
Stevens, Ph.D. Go for
dark chocolate with
60 percent cacao
or higher.

Its flu shot time. Read


these tips before you roll
up your sleeve and youll
minimize your chances
of getting sick.

IS IT SAFE TO
NUKE COFFEE IN
A TO-GO CUP?

An hour after your shot


Take a long, brisk walk,
suggests Marian Kohut,
Ph.D., a professor of
kinesiology at Iowa State
University. Kohut found
that 90 minutes of low- to
moderate-intensity cardio
can increase your bodys
antibody response to
a flu shot by as much as
100 percent.

Youve heard that chomping gum can


cut your chance of developing cavities
(by revving your production of acidneutralizing saliva). Now theres proof that
it helps you concentrate too. Chewing
a stick temporarily raises your level of the
hormone cortisol, which helps keep you
engaged and alert and, in turn, allows you
to think quicker, according to a study in
the journal BioMed Research International.

Probably, but heres


the small print: Most
paper coffee cups are
lined with a type of
plastic known as polyethylene (PE), says
David Andrews, Ph.D.,
a senior scientist at
the Environmental
Working Group. Unlike
BPA or PFCs (chemical
compounds that are
known to be dangerous), theres limited evidence that PE releases
substances that might
be harmful to your
health when ingested,
Andrews says. Still,
theres a good chance
that microwaving
could spur PE to emit
so-called estrogenic
chemicals (about
95 percent of plastics
do, according to some
estimates), which have
the potential to mess
with your hormone levels or worse. Andrewss
advice: Avoid plastic by
toting your own ceramic
or metal travel mug to
your coffee stop and
use a ceramic mug if you
need to reheat your joe.

Six hours before your shot


Do a 25-minute upperbody workout that includes
biceps curls and lateral
arm raises. The sets and
reps will bring more blood
to the injection site and
get your immune system
cranking on muscle
repaira perfect combo
of conditions that will
increase the number of
antibodies you produce
postvaccine for five
months, research in the
journal Brain, Behavior,
and Immunity showed.

UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN


GETTING A FLU SHOT AND CHOOSING ONE.
CHOOSE THE FLU SHOT WITH BROADER COVERAGE.
The 3-strain u vaccines only cover three types of u virus strains, but the 4-strain vaccines cover an additional strain.
That means you may get broader coverage against the u with the 4-strain vaccine.
ASK YOUR PHARMACIST OR HEALTHCARE PROVIDER if the 4-strain u vaccine is right for you and your family.

overall than creams and


lotions, Dr. Tanzi says. This
makes them a smart choice
for people with sensitive
skin that tends to react
to irritants.

Because moisture levels take


a dive in the winter (damn you,
indoor heat, cooler temps, and
hot showers!), youll need to
use a thicker, richer oil from the
neck down. Choose natural
plant oils over mineral-based
varieties, and apply the oil
immediately after you get
out of the shower, when your
skin is a little damp, to seal the
moisture in, says Elizabeth
Tanzi, M.D., a clinical professor
of dermatology at the George
Washington Medical Center.
You can use body oil alone or,
even better, as an extra layer
of hydration under your favorite cream or lotion.

If your skin is very dry


or has rough areas
OUR PICK: Elizabeth Arden
Eight Hour Cream All-Over
Miracle Oil [C], a blend of
olive oil and avocado oil.
HOW IT WORKS: Thicker
oils, like those from avocados
and olives, are rich in fatty
acids and vitamins A and
E, making them extremely
hydrating. Because of their
large carbon molecules, they
have a heavier consistency,
says Dennis Gross, M.D.,
a dermatologist in New York
City. It makes them ideal for
softening and smoothing
areas of thick skin, like your
elbows, heels, and knees,
which can easily develop
rough patches.

which combines chamomile


oil with apricot kernel oil.
HOW IT WORKS: An antiinflammatory like chamomile
oil will help soothe irritated
skin and, with regular use,
prevent further flare-ups,
while apricot kernel oil is
a lightweight hydrating
ingredient so gentle that
its often found in babycare products. In general,
oil-based products contain fewer preservatives
and fewer ingredients

OUR PICK: Weleda Pomegranate Regenerating Body


Oil [A], which combines
pomegranate seed oil extract
with macadamia nut oil and
jojoba seed oil.
HOW IT WORKS: Pomegranate oil is loaded with antioxidants, essential fatty acids,
and vitamins, which soften
and help repair skin that can
become weathered-looking,
like that on your chest and
neck. Those areas are often
neglected when it comes to
sun protection, so they can
show signs of aging, such as
dark spots and a leathery
texture, Dr. Tanzi says. The
macadamia nut and jojoba
seed oils in the formula are
great lightweight hydrators
that absorb rapidly.

easily, Dr. Tanzi says. Evening


primrose oil helps build
that layer. Its also the go-to
choice for red, cranky, dry
skin, which explains why it is
a common eczema treatment.
Evening primrose has antiinflammatory properties, so
it helps reduce redness and
calms and soothes the skin,
Dr. Gross says. Cranberry oil
is packed with omega-3 fatty
acids, which nourish skin cells.

If your skin is dry


or showing signs
of aging
OUR PICK: The Body Shop Oils
of Life Intensely Revitalising
Facial Oil [B], a blend of rose
hip seed oil, black cumin
seeds, and camellia seed oil.
HOW IT WORKS: Hydrating
rose hip oil plumps the surface of your skin. Black cumin
seeds and camellia seed
oil are both powerful antiagers. This mix provides
fatty acids and omegas
3 and 6, which help skin cells

regenerate, says Jennifer


Hirsch, a beauty botanist for
the Body Shop. It also contains potent compounds like
antioxidants, vitamin C, and
the natural form of retinol
to fight wrinkles.

If your skin is oily


OUR PICK: Jouer Daily
Clarifying Treatment
Oil [C] with jojoba oil and
neem oil.
HOW IT WORKS: Jojoba oil
is a favorite base ingredient
of face blends because of its
lightweight consistency. It
also has the capacity to break
down sebum, so it prevents
pores from getting clogged,
Hirsch says. Neem oil has
antibacterial and astringent
properties. This makes it
ideal for treating acne,
Dr. Tanzi says. And both oils
are anti-inflammatory and
soothing, so you can use them
in conjunction with antiacne
medications that tend to
cause irritation.

[B]

For your face


This is a case where one oil
wont do it alla blend will
work much better to balance
your complexion. Again, just
make sure the blend doesnt
include pore-clogging mineral oils. Instead, opt for natural plant oils, like essential
oils or oils from seeds, which
are the lightest and most
potent. Formulas designed
for your face have oils with
a smaller molecular structure, allowing them to sink in
quickly, says Lisa Price, the
founder of the natural beauty
line Carols Daughter. Apply
your facial oil to clean skin,

then follow with your other


products, including sunscreen. And keep in mind
that a little bit goes a long
way. One or two drops
is usually enough to cover
your whole face.

If your skin
is sensitive
OUR PICK: Rene Rouleau Pro
Remedy Oil [A], with evening
primrose oil and cranberry oil.

elements, it can get irritated

ACZONE (dapsone) Gel 5%


BRIEF SUMMARYPLEASE SEE THE ACZONE
PACKAGE INSERT FOR FULL PRESCRIBING
INFORMATION.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
ACZONE Gel, 5%, is indicated for the topical treatment
of acne vulgaris.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
For topical use only. Not for oral, ophthalmic, or
intravaginal use. After the skin is gently washed and
patted dry, apply approximately a pea-sized amount of
ACZONE Gel, 5%, in a thin layer to the acne affected
areas twice daily. Rub in ACZONE Gel, 5%, gently and
completely. ACZONE Gel, 5%, is gritty with visible drug
substance particles. Wash hands after application of
ACZONE Gel, 5%. If there is no improvement after
12 weeks, treatment with ACZONE Gel, 5%, should
be reassessed.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
None.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Methemoglobinemia
Cases of methemoglobinemia, with resultant
hospitalization, have been reported postmarketing in
association with ACZONE Gel, 5% treatment. Patients
with glucose6phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency or
congenital or idiopathic methemoglobinemia are more
susceptible to druginduced methemoglobinemia. Avoid
use of ACZONE Gel, 5% in those patients with congenital
or idiopathic methemoglobinemia.
Signs and symptoms of methemoglobinemia may be
delayed some hours after exposure. Initial signs and
symptoms of methemoglobinemia are characterized
by a slate grey cyanosis seen in, e.g., buccal mucous
membranes, lips and nail beds. Advise patients to
discontinue ACZONE Gel, 5% and seek immediate
medical attention in the event of cyanosis.
Dapsone can cause elevated methemoglobin levels
particularly in conjunction with methemoglobin
inducing agents.
Hematological Effects
Oral dapsone treatment has produced dose-related
hemolysis and hemolytic anemia. Individuals with
glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency
are more prone to hemolysis with the use of certain drugs.
G6PD deficiency is most prevalent in populations of
African, South Asian, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean
ancestry.
Some subjects with G6PD deficiency using ACZONE Gel
developed laboratory changes suggestive of hemolysis.
There was no evidence of clinically relevant hemolysis or
anemia in patients treated with ACZONE Gel, 5%,
including patients who were G6PD deficient.
Discontinue ACZONE Gel, 5%, if signs and symptoms
suggestive of hemolytic anemia occur. Avoid use of
ACZONE Gel, 5% in patients who are taking oral dapsone
or antimalarial medications because of the potential for
hemolytic reactions. Combination of ACZONE Gel, 5%,
with trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX) may
increase the likelihood of hemolysis in patients with
G6PD deficiency.
Peripheral Neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy (motor loss and muscle weakness)
has been reported with oral dapsone treatment. No events
of peripheral neuropathy were observed in clinical trials
with topical ACZONE Gel, 5% treatment.
Skin
Skin reactions (toxic epidermal necrolysis, erythema
multiforme, morbilliform and scarlatiniform reactions,
bullous and exfoliative dermatitis, erythema nodosum, and
urticaria) have been reported with oral dapsone treatment.
These types of skin reactions were not observed in clinical
trials with topical ACZONE Gel, 5% treatment.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
Clinical Studies Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under varying
conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical
trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the
clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates
observed in practice.
Serious adverse reactions reported in patients treated with
ACZONE Gel, 5%, during clinical trials included but were
not limited to the following:

Nervous system/Psychiatric Suicide attempt, tonic


clonic movements.
Gastrointestinal Abdominal pain, severe vomiting,
pancreatitis.
Other Severe pharyngitis.
In the clinical trials, a total of 12 out of 4032 patients
were reported to have depression (3 of 1660 treated with
vehicle and 9 of 2372 treated with ACZONE Gel, 5%).
Psychosis was reported in 2 of 2372 patients treated
with ACZONE Gel, 5%, and in 0 of 1660 patients
treated with vehicle.
Combined contact sensitization/irritation studies with
ACZONE Gel, 5%, in 253 healthy subjects resulted in at
least 3 subjects with moderate erythema. ACZONE Gel,
5%, did not induce phototoxicity or photoallergy in human
dermal safety studies.
ACZONE Gel, 5%, was evaluated for 12 weeks in four
controlled studies for local cutaneous events in 1819
patients. The most common events reported from these
studies include oiliness/peeling, dryness, and erythema.
One patient treated with ACZONE Gel in the clinical
trials had facial swelling which led to discontinuation
of medication.
In addition, 486 patients were evaluated in a 12 month
safety study. The adverse event profile in this study
was consistent with that observed in the vehiclecontrolled studies.
Experience with Oral Use of Dapsone
Although not observed in the clinical trials with ACZONE
Gel (topical dapsone) serious adverse reactions have been
reported with oral use of dapsone, including
agranulocytosis, hemolytic anemia, peripheral neuropathy
(motor loss and muscle weakness), and skin reactions
(toxic epidermal necrolysis, erythema multiforme,
morbilliform and scarlatiniform reactions, bullous and
exfoliative dermatitis, erythema nodosum, and urticaria).
Postmarketing Experience
The following adverse reactions have been identified
during post-approval use of ACZONE Gel, 5%. Because
these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population
of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably
estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship
to drug exposure.
Methemoglobinemia has been identified during
postmarketing use of ACZONE Gel, 5%.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole
A drug-drug interaction study evaluated the effect of the
use of ACZONE Gel, 5%, in combination with double
strength (160 mg/800 mg) trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole
(TMP/SMX). During co-administration, systemic levels of
TMP and SMX were essentially unchanged. However,
levels of dapsone and its metabolites increased in the
presence of TMP/SMX. Systemic exposure (AUC0-12)
of dapsone and N-acetyl-dapsone (NAD) were increased
by about 40% and 20% respectively in the presence of
TMP/SMX. Notably, systemic exposure (AUC0-12) of dapsone
hydroxylamine (DHA) was more than doubled in the
presence of TMP/SMX. Exposure from the proposed topical
dose is about 1% of that from the 100 mg oral dose, even
when co-administered with TMP/SMX.
Topical Benzoyl Peroxide
Topical application of ACZONE Gel followed by benzoyl
peroxide in subjects with acne vulgaris resulted in a
temporary local yellow or orange discoloration of the
skin and facial hair (reported by 7 out of 95 subjects in
a clinical study) with resolution in 4 to 57 days.
Drug Interactions with Oral Dapsone
Certain concomitant medications (such as rifampin,
anticonvulsants, St. Johns wort) may increase the
formation of dapsone hydroxylamine, a metabolite of
dapsone associated with hemolysis. With oral dapsone
treatment, folic acid antagonists such as pyrimethamine
have been noted to possibly increase the likelihood of
hematologic reactions.
Concomitant Use with Drugs that Induce
Methemoglobinemia
Concomitant use of ACZONE with drugs that induce
methemoglobinemia such as sulfonamides,
acetaminophen, acetanilide, aniline dyes, benzocaine,
chloroquine, dapsone, naphthalene, nitrates and nitrites,
nitrofurantoin, nitroglycerin, nitroprusside, pamaquine,

paraaminosalicylic acid, phenacetin, phenobarbital,


phenytoin, primaquine, and quinine may increase the
risk for developing methemoglobinemia.
USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
Pregnancy
Teratogenic Effects: Pregnancy Category C
There are no adequate and well controlled studies in
pregnant women. Dapsone has been shown to have an
embryocidal effect in rats and rabbits when administered
orally in doses of 75 mg/kg/day and 150 mg/kg/day
(approximately 800 and 500 times the systemic exposure
observed in human females as a result of use of the
maximum recommended topical dose, based on AUC
comparisons), respectively. These effects were probably
secondary to maternal toxicity. ACZONE Gel, 5%, should
be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit
justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Nursing Mothers
Although systemic absorption of dapsone following topical
application of ACZONE Gel, 5%, is minimal relative to
oral dapsone administration, it is known that dapsone is
excreted in human milk. Because of the potential for oral
dapsone to cause adverse reactions in nursing infants, a
decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing
or to discontinue ACZONE Gel, 5%, taking into account
the importance of the drug to the mother.
Pediatric Use
Safety and efficacy was evaluated in 1169 children aged
12-17 years old treated with ACZONE Gel, 5%, in the
clinical studies. The adverse event rate for ACZONE Gel,
5%, was similar to the vehicle control group. Safety and
efficacy was not studied in pediatric patients less than
12 years of age, therefore ACZONE Gel, 5%, is not
recommended for use in this age group.
Geriatric Use
Clinical studies of ACZONE Gel, 5%, did not include
sufficient number of patients aged 65 and over to
determine whether they respond differently from
younger patients.
G6PD Deficiency
ACZONE Gel, 5% and vehicle were evaluated in a
randomized, double-blind, cross-over design clinical study
of 64 patients with G6PD deficiency and acne vulgaris.
Subjects were Black (88%), Asian (6%), Hispanic (2%) or
of other racial origin (5%). Blood samples were taken at
Baseline, Week 2, and Week 12 during both vehicle and
ACZONE Gel, 5% treatment periods. There were 56 out
of 64 subjects who had a Week 2 blood draw and applied
at least 50% of treatment applications. ACZONE Gel was
associated with a 0.32 g/dL drop in hemoglobin after two
weeks of treatment, but hemoglobin levels generally
returned to baseline levels at Week 12.
There were no changes from baseline in haptoglobin or
lactate dehydrogenase during ACZONE or vehicle
treatment at either the 2-week or 12-week time point.
The proportion of subjects who experienced decreases in
hemoglobin 1 g/dL was similar between ACZONE Gel,
5% and vehicle treatment (8 of 58 subjects had such
decreases during ACZONE treatment compared to 7 of
56 subjects during vehicle treatment among subjects with
at least one on-treatment hemoglobin assessment).
Subgroups based on gender, race, or G6PD enzyme
activity did not display any differences in laboratory results
from the overall study group. There was no evidence of
clinically significant hemolytic anemia in this study. Some
of these subjects developed laboratory changes
suggestive of mild hemolysis.

The idea of more shine and less

oilsounds great, but know this:
Pure oils are highly concentrated,
so they arent practical for everyday
use, says stylist Kattia Solano, the
founder of Butterfly Studio Salon
in New York City. (Save them for

into hair more easily and wont

a celeb hairstylist for LOral Paris.

HOW IT WORKS: Coloring and


heat processing leave gaps in your

This question pops into my


head the moment I get out of
bed, on my way to work, after
my second cup of coffee, after
lunch, and so on throughout
the day and evening. Ive asked
all my loved ones if they think
I suffer from simple chronic
halitosis. Their diagnosis: simple
chronic dental neurosis. I know
that the problem is more likely
in my head than in my mouth,
but I still stick to my four-timesa-day brushing routine (after
breakfast, after lunch, when I get
home, and right before bed), and
I cant go a day without my secret
weapon: DenTek Floss Picks,
which do triple duty as floss, pick,
and tongue scraper in one. And
if were ever hanging out and you
notice that I have bad breath,
please, please tell me. I wont be
offended; Ill be vindicated!

More wrinkles!
About 10 years ago, I learned
that ridges on your nails are
like wrinkles on your face: lines
that can occur with age. I made
a mental note of this and filed
it under things that happen
to old people. At the time, my
nails were smooth and strong,
so much so that I had to cut them
every two weeks or they would
turn into talons. Now? The nails
on my ring fingers look like accordions, and they tear and snag as
soon as theyre longer than my
fingertips. I took the opportunity
to consult the on-set manicurist
at a photo shoot (I love that whining about my beauty problems is
considered work), who promptly
painted my nails with Essie Ridge
Filling Base Coat ($9, essie.com).
It changed everything. Instantly,
they had a perfectly smooth surface with just a hint of tint. Hands
down, this is the best wrinkle fix

Actually, its about my pubes


if that makes this story less
TMI, though somehow I
doubt it. Anyway, it was right
around the time of my eighth
wedding anniversary and
I was road-testing the Schick
Hydro Silk TrimStyle, a
combination hydrating razor
and bikini trimmer. In the
moment, I had a brilliant
idea: Wouldnt it be a sweet
gesture to shave a heart
shape just like in the Schick
commercial? And I have to
say, in the steamy haze of the
shower, I thought it looked
pretty good. But when
I stepped out and faced the
mirror, I gasped: Thats no
heart, thats . . . an amoeba?
My design was a disaster,
but the trouble wasnt the
trimmer. Thanks to my twin
pregnancy and C-section
scar (totally worth it, kids!),
you need a GPS app for my
nether region: After you pass
the belly pooch, youll get
to a speed bump. Go over it
slowly, head south, and soon
youll arrive at your destination. So while a heart
was a no-go on this tricky
terrain, I was able to
salvage the situation
with a simple strip.
As for preserving my
dignity, this tool denitely did me a solid.

Do I have
bad breath?

Why bad skin days happen


Skin can be supremely
temperamentalthe smallest environmental shift or
irritant may turn your once
clear complexion red, dry,
dull, or spotted with breakouts. Frustrating, yes, but
theres good reason for
it. Think about skins job,
Dr. Gross says. Its your barrier between the inside of
your body and the outside
world, and as such, it plays
an important role in your
immune system. Below the
surface, skin is closely linked
to your nervous and circulatory systems and contains
large networks of nerve

endings and blood vessels, and its chock-full


of receptors for various
hormones. Those characteristics make your
complexion sensitive to
fluctuations both inside
and outside your body.
When skin comes
into contact with something it senses might be
a threatpotentially
even the minerals in
some tap waterit
treats it as if it were an
assault on the body.
It overreacts, taking
a better safe than
sorry approach. The
by-products of this
overreaction: pimples,
dryness, dullness, and
redness. So how do you
root out these hidden
triggers? Start with the
biggest culprits below.

Whats behind
your bad-skin
days You know the
obvious triggers.
But beyond stress
and hormones, its
the little culprits
that arent on your
radar that can
really wreak havoc.

Your hair
Women dont realize
how much not washing
your hair can affect your
skin, Dr. Gross says.
Even if your hair doesnt
look greasy, a microscopic
avalanche of oil can advance
from your scalp, not just at
the hairline but down the
forehead and cheeks, too.
The fix is easy: Shampoo
more often. Let the lather
sit on your scalp for a few
minutes to break down oils,
then scrub with your fingers. Regular shampooing,
especially at night, can also
save your skin from breakouts caused by hair products. They can contain thick,
sticky ingredients that easily
clog pores, Dr. Gross says.
Residue can migrate to skin
directly from strands, but it
can also build up on your pillowcase and be pressed into
your face all night. If a p.m.
shower isnt your thing, tie

If your complexion is suddenly


greasy and broken out, red
and blotchy, or dry and flaky,
there are, of course, the
usual suspects to blame: your
period (high androgen levels
can cause pimples), stress
(anxiety stokes inflammation
in the skin, spurring acne), or
a night of not enough zzzs
(which ups stress and interrupts skin repair). But beyond
those, there are more mysterious things that can lead your
skin to rebel out of the blue,
things the pros look forand
now you will, too. For instance,
when his patients who travel
routinely returned complaining of skin issues, Dennis
Gross, M.D., a dermatologist
in New York City, began questioning whether the different
tap water could be at play.
Sure enough, he discovered
that what comes out of your
faucet can dictate the state
of your complexion (more
on that later). Skin is very
reactive, Dr. Gross says, adding that small changes can
cause big problems precisely
because theyre rarely identified and dealt with. Heres
what you need to know.

with the second one. Our intriguing blends of herbs and

skin smart

a scarf around your hair to block

The water
Now, about that H2O. Whats
on tap at your house is unlikely
to cause a sudden skin freakout, because your skin is used
to itthough you may want to
invest in an activated carbon
filter for your bathroom faucet (Pur faucet filters, $27 and
up, pur.com) if you suspect an
ongoing sensitivity. The problem is more likely to stem from
the water in a place youre visiting. Hard water and well water
naturally contain excess calcium,
as well as metals like zinc, copper, and iron, which may be safe
to drink but are rough on skin.
Dullness, irritation, large pores,
and small red pimples can show
up immediately if you wash your
face with hard water, Dr. Gross
says. High calcium levels make it
difficult to fully rinse off cleanser,
and that residue can irritate
skin, causing it to be blotchy
and dry. Minerals in water can
also change the chemistry
of skins natural oil, making it
waxier and more likely to clog
pores. On top of that, the
metal particles themselves
are free radicals; that is, theyre
unstable molecules that can
trigger inflammation, Dr. Gross
explains. A good rule of thumb
when you travel: Pack premoistened cleansing cloths instead
of rinse-off cleansers.
Your skin care
Sometimes skin products
backfire. I see tons of patients
who wake up with red, irritated
faces because theyve used
a new cream or have layered
on too many products, says
Joshua Zeichner, M.D., the
director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology
at Mount Sinai Hospital in New
York City. Although your skin
could react to any new-to-you

ingredient as an irritant, heavily


perfumed creams are especially
common culprits; at least 100
fragrance ingredients are known
contact allergens, according to
a paper in the American Journal
of Clinical Dermatology.
But its the times when you
havent switched up your
skin care that those sudden
blotches can blindside you. First
thing to clue into: the dryness of
your skin. When skin is dry, substances penetrate it more easily,
so if you apply a product with
a harsh active ingredient, like an
exfoliating acid, you can cause
irritation, says Ted Lain, M.D.,
a dermatologist in Austin, Texas.
Antiaging products typically
contain more active ingredients than moisturizers and are
more likely to irritate your skin,
Dr. Lain says. To reduce irritation, skip acids and exfoliators
until your skin is back to normal
(which could be days or even all
winter), use a mild cleanser, and
apply extra moisturizer. Look
for one containing ceramides to
maintain the skins barrier function, Dr. Zeichner says.
You may also be especially
susceptible to irritation in the
days before your period, according to a review in the journal
Clinical and Experimental
Dermatology. Yep, womens
roller-coaster hormones can
spark more than killer zitsthey
can cause skin to react negatively to a usual beauty routine,
resulting in redness. Although
experts arent sure why, they
theorize that the drop in estrogen may affect the skins lipid
content, causing the barrier to
become more permeable.
(Research also suggests that
your skin may be driest during
your period, when hormone levels are low.) During this window,
use a moisturizer with ceramides
and avoid exfoliating acids and
scrubs that may further strip or
dry your skin.

BEAT
HORMONAL
BREAKOUTS

Preemptively
treating skin
with the right
products can
help you avoid
problems before
they begin, says
dermatologist
Audrey Kunin,
M.D. If youre
prone to breakouts right before
your period,
keep pores
clear by using
a cleanser with
salicylic acid,
followed with
a sulfur mask
midcycle.

How to stay in the clear


Following the recommended
simple strategies can guard
against bad skin days. But
there are additional habits that
will help tremendously. Make
nightly cleansing a priority;
dirt, oil, and makeup can clog
pores. As the season shifts to
colder, drier air, use a cool-mist
humidifier in your bedroom,
switch to a heavier moisturizer, and indulge in a hydrating
mask. Skin can only compensate so much for a harsh
environment, Dr. Zeichner
says. Apply a mask like Peter
Thomas Roth Blue Marine Algae
Intense Hydrating Mask ($52,
sephora.com) for 10 minutes
once or twice a week. A diet rich
in fruits, veggies, and whole
grains also supplies skin with
protective antioxidants; limiting refined carbs, alcohol, and
salt keeps it hydrated, bright,
and youthful. Be aware of your
caffeine intake, too. Initially,
the ingredient constricts blood
vessels, but theres a rebound
effect, and the burst of blood
flow can trigger redness,
Dr. Gross says. Finally, never
underestimate the power of
sleep. Its a time of renewal
and repair, says Audrey Kunin,
M.D., a dermatologist in Kansas
City, Missouri. A good rest lowers radiance-robbing stress
hormones, like cortisol, and
optimizes blood flow to your
skin, delivering nutrients and
clearing toxins. Its not enough
to simply log seven-plus hours
in bed. Sleep quality is at least
as important as quantity,
Dr. Kunin says. To improve it,
power down your smartphone
and laptop at least an hour
before bed. Your body mistakes
the screens glow for sunlight,
which throws off your circadian
rhythms and interferes with the
deep sleep that ensures youll
wake up to gorgeous skin day
after day.

are so many variables at play,


says Yuri Feito, Ph.D., an assistant professor of exercise
science at Kennesaw State
University. Still, the latest
research hints at how much and
what types of exercise seem
to be more effective for specific benefits. Use this guide to
tweak your routine and reach
the goal youve set.

or carbs, but recoveries are


fueled by fat. (Another reason
not to skimp on recovery time,
Feito says.)
If youre a newbie, aim for
a work-to-rest ratio of one to
two or three to start, or 30 seconds on and 60 to 90 seconds
off. Once you feel yourself
recovering sooner, move to a
one-to-one ratio, which delivers an overall higher-intensity
workout and so a bigger burn.
(Try 60 seconds; its a good
upper time limit for intervals,
Gibala says.) Run, cycle, or do
something else; the undulating pattern matters more than
the activity youre doing.

Research has shown that two


different cardio sessions that
burn the same number of calories can have radically dissimilar
impacts on the reduction of
body fat. So if youre trying to
drop pounds, high-intensity
interval training (HIIT) will trim
more flab than steady cardio
and save you time.
By alternating short periods
of working your butt off and
an easy pace, you could log
a 20-minute workout and net
roughly the same burn as a
30- to 45-minute one, says HIIT
guru Martin Gibala, Ph.D., a professor of exercise science at
McMaster University.
How? You get a boost in
calorie burn not only during the
intervals but also in the recoveries, because your body uses
extra energy to return to normal,
Gibala says. Plus you earn a nice
10 percent bonus afterburn.
Intervals are especially good
at obliterating fat. A study at
the University of Lethbridge in
Canada showed that women
dropped 8 percent of their body
fat and shrunk their waists by
3.5 percent in six weeks doing
sprintervals three times a week.
Thats because during an interval,
you run on fast-acting glycogen,

says Pete McCall, an


exercise physiologist in
San Diego. According
to a study in the Journal
of Applied Physiology,
exercisers who did cardio and strength training lost more fat and
inches than those who
did only cardio. The
reason: Resistance
training protects and
builds lean muscle,
which is your bodys
calorie-burning furnace, says John Porcari,
Ph.D., a professor of
exercise science at the
University of Wisconsin
La Crosse. Without it,
when you drop pounds,
you may lose fat and
muscle.
Add another day of
weight training (two
resistance workouts
a week is the minimum for building lean,
calorie-burning muscle,
Porcari says), making sure you hit all the
major muscle groups
and use weights heavy
enough so that youre spent
by the last rep in each set. On
alternate days, go for a walk,
take a bike ride, or play tennis.
Do something active, Feito
says. The key to weight loss is
consistency.

GET WITH HIIT


Any way you slice
them, intervals
will help you lose
pounds and fat
faster than
steady-state
sessions.

netted three pounds of lean
muscle after 10 weeks, the
same amount as those who hit
the gym three times a week,
a study in The Physician and
Sportsmedicine found.
Four times is when your
sessions start working against
you, says study author Wayne
Westcott, Ph.D., a professor
of exercise science at Quincy
College. The 72-hour recovery
seems to be the best time frame
for maximizing muscle development, he says, meaning that
if you maxed out a muscle on
Monday, wait until Thursday
to train it hard again. Strength
training triggers microscopic
tears in muscle cells, which,
when repaired days afterward,
make muscles stronger, so you
dont want to shortchange the
recovery process.
Each strength session, do
eight to 10 different moves to
target the major muscle groups
(shoulders, chest, back, arms,
abs, and legs). Andsurprise!
start with one set of 12 to 15
reps of each. Yep, only one.
Studies suggest that just one
set delivers maximum muscle
gains in beginners.
But as you get stronger,
add sets and mix it up: In one
workout, do higher reps (12 to
15 per set) with lighter weights;
the next session, do eight to
10 reps per set with moderate
weights; and the next session,
lift heavier weights for three to
five reps. A six-month study in
Medicine & Science in Sports &
Exercise found that women who
followed this style of training
got significantly strongerand
leanerthan those who stuck
with the same sets and reps.
Dont be afraid to lift heavy.
You need heavy loads to elicit
the muscle changes that deliver
definition and build strength,
which is the reason you also
need to increase your weight as

you get stronger, usually after


four to six weeks, says Brad
Schoenfeld, Ph.D., an assistant
professor of health sciences
at Lehman College.
Also, cardio is key for burning
the fat that hides muscles. Mix
up your routine by adding intervals and moderate workouts.
Just be sure to give yourself at
least 48 hours of rest between
strength and HIIT workouts,
because the latter taxes muscles too, Westcott says.

Your goal:

You need:

strength training 1x

disease, diabetes, depression,


and other health problems.
Do a few higher-intensity
intervals, too, which make your
heart stronger, your muscles
better at utilizing oxygen and
glucose, and your blood vessels
more elastic so blood flows more
easily. You dont have to go all
out or watch the clock, just pick
up the pace at points throughout
your session, such as between
a few sets of streetlights or at the
beginning or during the chorus
of songs on your playlist.
As for resistance exercise,
one 30-minute total-body
workout, with weights or bodyweight moves, is all you need to
sustain strength, Westcott says.
And how you spend those
23 other hours makes a big
difference. Reducing overall
sedentary time is key for health,
Feito says. According to a paper
in Exercise and Sport Sciences
Reviews, even when you meet
physical-activity guidelines,
prolonged periods of sitting can
increase your risk of metabolic
disorders, including diabetes,
and premature death.
Too much sitting also jacks up
your chance of developing cancer, so the American Institute of
Cancer Research recommends
getting up to do some type of
minimal activity for at least one
to two minutes for every hour
in a row you sit. Set an alarm on
your phone if you have to, Feito
says. When watching TV, use
commercial breaks or DVR fastforward time as your cue. While
all you really need to do during
breaks is stand or walk a little, try
instead to do a few stretches or
hold a tree pose. Get creative
and play around with whatever
works for you. (How about bringing back planking?) Regardless
of your goal, thats really the
most important aspect of any
routine, Feito says. We joke that
the best exercise is the one that
youll actually do, but its true.

Invasive pneumococcal disease


is as scary as it sounds.

Help protect your baby with the Prevnar 13 vaccine.


Invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) spreads through the air with a cough or
sneeze and can cause meningitis that may lead to brain damage or even death.
Prevnar 13 can help protect against IPD in children 6 weeks through 5 years
of age as recommended by the CDC. It is important that your baby
completes all 4 doses at 2, 4, 6 and 1215 months of age.
Learn about the importance of completing all 4 doses at Prevnar13vax.com.

INDICATIONS FOR PREVNAR 13


Prevnar 13 is a vaccine approved for children 6 weeks
through 17 years of age for the prevention of invasive
disease caused by 13 Streptococcus pneumoniae strains
(1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 6B, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, and 23F), and
for children 6 weeks through 5 years for the prevention
of otitis media caused by 7 of the 13 strains
Prevnar 13 is not 100% effective and will only help protect
against the 13 strains included in the vaccine

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION


Prevnar 13 should not be given to anyone with a
history of severe allergic reaction to any component of
Prevnar 13 or any diphtheria toxoidcontaining vaccine
Children with weakened immune systems (eg, HIV infection,
leukemia) may have a reduced immune response

The most commonly reported serious adverse events in


infants and toddlers were bronchiolitis (an infection of the
lungs) (0.9%), gastroenteritis (inflammation of the
stomach and small intestine) (0.9%), and pneumonia (0.9%)
In children 6 weeks through 17 years, the most common
side effects were tenderness, redness, or swelling at the
injection site, irritability, decreased appetite, decreased or
increased sleep, and fever
Ask your health care provider about the risks and benets
of Prevnar 13. Only a health care provider can decide if
Prevnar 13 is right for your child
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of vaccines to the US
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC). Visit www.vaers.hhs.gov or call 1-800-822-7967.

First time using
a rower? Ask a trainer
to help you navigate
the settings.

Nail your form first with the Perfect Your Stroke


info below (proper technique requires your entire
core to work, so expect stronger, sleeker abs), then
do each move in order, paying close attention to
when you need to hop on the rower for high-intensity
cardio bursts. If you do this routine three days a
weekcoupled with proper nutritionyou can start
to see results in as little as 14 days, Stein says.

YOULL NEED
A rowing machine. (Most gyms have at least one.) Our
favorite is the WaterRower GX ($1,295, shop.city

rowing on water, but you can use any kind.

PERFECT YOUR STROKE


Sit tall with feet strapped in and knees bent; lift and
hold ends of handle (pinkie fingers hang off) with arms
extended forward over knees [A]. (This is called the catch.)
Keep arms and back straight and powerfully drive legs
back (resist the urge to pull your arms here) until theyre
almost straight, then tighten your core and lean your
torso back 45 degrees [B]. (This is called the drive.) Now
pull elbows back, bringing handle to touch lower part of
chest [C]. Reverse movement: Extend arms, sit up so torso
is perpendicular to floor and handle glides over knees,
then bend knees and return to the catch. The easy way to
remember all of this: legs, core, arms; then arms, core, legs.

WARM-UP: ROW
Set your monitor for 500 meters and row at 50 percent of your
maximum effort, keeping your split time (the amount of time it
takes you to row 500 meters) under 2:30.

DOES DEPRESSION
HOLD YOU BACK FROM
ENJOYING YOUR LIFE?
Depression is a serious medical condition
that can leave you feeling sad, helpless,
overwhelmed, and uninterested in
your favorite activities. You may feel
like you have to wind yourself up.
PRISTIQ (desvenlafaxine) 50 mg is
FDA-approved to treat depression.
In clinical studies, PRISTIQ 50 mg also
helped improve patients ability to
function according to a scale* used to
measure how depression disrupts the
following areas:
Work
Social life/leisure activities
Family life/home responsibilities
In clinical studies, PRISTIQ 50 mg showed
no signicant difference in average
weight gain versus placebo. Please see
Important Safety Information below.
Ask your doctor if PRISTIQ may be right
for you.

* Sheehan Disability Scale (a validated measure of functional impairment) total score for Pristiq vs placebo.
Side effects may increase at higher doses. Based on data from 8- and 12-week clinical studies, long-term effects on weight have not been established.

Important Safety Information About


PRISTIQ
Suicidality and Antidepressant Drugs
Antidepressants increased the risk of
suicidal thinking and behavior in
children, teens, and young adults.
Depression and certain other
psychiatric disorders are themselves
associated with increases in the risk
of suicide. Patients of all ages who
are started on antidepressant therapy
or when the dose is changed should
be monitored appropriately and
observed closely for clinical
worsening, suicidality, or unusual
changes in behavior such as becoming
agitated, irritable, hostile, aggressive,
impulsive or restless. Should these
occur, report them to a doctor right
away. PRISTIQ is not approved for
use in children under 18.
Do not take PRISTIQ if you are allergic
to desvenlafaxine, venlafaxine, or any
of the ingredients in PRISTIQ. Do not
take PRISTIQ if you currently take, or
have taken within the last 14 days, any
medicine known as an MAOI (including
intravenous methylene blue or the
antibiotic linezolid). Allow 7 days after
stopping PRISTIQ before starting an
MAOI. Taking an MAOI with PRISTIQ
can cause serious or even lifethreatening side effects.

Before taking PRISTIQ, tell your


healthcare professional about all
prescription and over-the-counter
medications and supplements you take
or plan to take including: those to treat
migraines or psychiatric disorders
(including other antidepressants) to
avoid serotonin syndrome, a potentially
life-threatening condition; aspirin, NSAID
pain relievers, or blood thinners because
they may increase the risk of bleeding.
PRISTIQ may cause or worsen some
conditions, so tell your healthcare
professional about all the medical
conditions you have or had including:
High blood pressure, which should
be controlled before starting
PRISTIQ and monitored regularly
Heart problems, high cholesterol or
triglyceride levels, a history of stroke,
kidney or liver problems, or low
sodium levels in your blood
Bleeding problems
Depression, suicidal thoughts or
behavior
Mania, bipolar disorder, or seizures
or convulsions
Nursing, pregnancy, or plans to
become pregnant
Some people are at risk for visual
problems such as eye pain, changes in
vision, or swelling or redness around the
eye. You may want to undergo an eye

examination to see if you are at risk and


get preventative treatment if you are.
Discontinuation symptoms may occur
when stopping or reducing PRISTIQ, so
talk to your healthcare professional
before stopping or changing your dose.
Until you see how PRISTIQ affects you,
be careful driving a car or operating
machinery. Avoid drinking alcohol while
taking PRISTIQ. In clinical studies, most
common side effects with PRISTIQ 50 mg
were nausea, dizziness, sweating,
constipation, and decreased appetite.
Indication
PRISTIQ is a prescription medication
approved for the treatment of major
depressive disorder in adults.

FACTS ABOUT

(pristeek)
Pristiq (desvenlafaxine)
Extended-Release
Tablets

Read the Medication Guide that comes with your prescription before you start taking
PRISTIQ and each time you get a refill. There may be new information. This information
does not take the place of talking to your healthcare provider about your medical
conditions or treatment.
Talk to your healthcare provider about:
all risks and benefits of treatment with antidepressant medicines
all treatment choices for depression or other serious mental illness
What is the most important information I should know about antidepressant medicines,
depression and other serious mental illnesses, and suicidal thoughts or actions?
1. Antidepressant medicines may increase suicidal thoughts or actions in some
children, teenagers, and young adults within the first few months of treatment.
2. Depression and other serious mental illnesses are the most important causes of
suicidal thoughts and actions. Some people may have a particularly high risk of
having suicidal thoughts or actions. These include people who have (or have a family
history of) bipolar illness (also called manic-depressive illness) or suicidal thoughts or
actions.
3. How can I watch for and try to prevent suicidal thoughts and actions?
Pay close attention to any changes, especially sudden changes, in mood, behaviors,
thoughts, or feelings. This is very important when an antidepressant medicine is started or
when the dose is changed.
Call the healthcare provider right away to report new or sudden changes in mood, behavior,
thoughts, or feelings.
Keep all follow-up visits with the healthcare provider as scheduled. Call the healthcare
provider between visits as needed, especially if you have concerns about symptoms.
Call a healthcare provider right away if you have any of the following symptoms,

What else do I need to know about antidepressant medicines?
Never stop an antidepressant medicine without first talking to a healthcare provider.
Stopping an antidepressant medicine suddenly can cause other symptoms.
Antidepressants are medicines used to treat depression and other illnesses. It is
important to discuss all the risks of treating depression and also the risks of not treating it.
Patients should discuss all treatment choices with the healthcare provider, not just the use
of antidepressants.
Antidepressant medicines have other side effects. Talk to the healthcare provider
about the side effects of this medicine.
Antidepressant medicines can interact with other medicines. Know all of the
medicines that you take. Keep a list of all medicines to show the healthcare provider. Do
not start new medicines without first checking with your healthcare provider.
Not all antidepressant medicines prescribed for children are FDA approved for use in
children. Talk to your childs healthcare provider for more information.

PQP671007-01
2014 Pfizer Inc. All rights reserved. July 2014

Serotonin syndrome
Rare, but potentially life-threatening, conditions called serotonin syndrome can happen when
medicines such as Pristiq are taken with certain other medicines. Serotonin syndrome can cause
serious changes in how your brain, muscles, heart and blood vessels, and digestive system work.
Especially tell your healthcare provider if you take the following:
medicines to treat migraine headaches
medicines used to treat mood, anxiety,
known as triptans
psychotic, or thought disorders, including
St. Johns Wort
tricyclics, lithium, selective serotonin
MAOIs (including linezolid, an antibiotic and
reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), or serotonin
intravenous methylene blue)
norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs),
tryptophan supplements
or other dopamine antagonists, such as
silbutramine
tramadol
metoclopramide
Ask your healthcare provider if you are not sure whether you are taking any of these
medicines. Before you take Pristiq with any of these medicines, talk to your healthcare
provider about serotonin syndrome. See What are the possible side effects of Pristiq?
Do not take Pristiq with other medicines containing venlafaxine or desvenlafaxine.
Switching from other antidepressants
Side effects from discontinuing antidepressant medication have occurred when patients
switched from other antidepressants, including venlafaxine, to Pristiq. Your doctor may gradually
reduce the dose of your initial antidepressant medication to help reduce these side effects.
What should I avoid while taking Pristiq?
Do not drive a car or operate machinery until you know how Pristiq affects you.
Avoid drinking alcohol while taking Pristiq.
What are the possible side effects of Pristiq?
Pristiq can cause serious side effects, including:
See the beginning of this page.
Serotonin syndrome. See What should I tell my healthcare provider before taking Pristiq?
Get medical help right away if you think that you have these syndromes. Signs and symptoms
of these syndromes may include one or more of the following:
coma
diarrhea
restlessness
nausea
loss of coordination
hallucinations
vomiting
fast heart beat
(seeing and
confusion
increased body temperature
hearing things
that are not real)
increase in blood pressure muscle stiffness
Pristiq may also cause other serious side effects including:
New or worsened high blood pressure (hypertension).
Your healthcare provider should monitor your blood pressure before and while you are taking
Pristiq. If you have high blood pressure, it should be controlled before you start taking Pristiq.
Abnormal bleeding or bruising. Pristiq and other SNRIs/SSRIs may cause you to have an
increased chance of bleeding. Taking aspirin, NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
drugs), or blood thinners may add to this risk. Tell your healthcare provider right away about
any unusual bleeding or bruising.
Visual problems
eye pain
changes in vision
swelling or redness in or around the eye
Only some people are at risk for these problems. You may want to undergo an eye
examination to see if you are at risk and receive preventative treatment if you are.
Symptoms when stopping Pristiq (discontinuation symptoms). Side effects may occur
when stopping Pristiq (discontinuation symptoms), especially when therapy is stopped
suddenly. Your healthcare provider may want to decrease your dose slowly to help avoid
side effects.
Some of these side effects may include:
dizziness
tiredness
diarrhea
sweating
abnormal dreams
headache
sleeping problems anxiety
nausea
irritability
(insomnia)
Seizures (convulsions)
Low sodium levels in your blood. Symptoms of this may include headache, difficulty
concentrating, memory changes, confusion, weakness, and unsteadiness on your feet. In
severe or more sudden cases, symptoms can include hallucinations (seeing or hearing
things that are not real), fainting, seizures and coma. If not treated, severe low sodium
levels could be fatal.
Lung problems. Some people who have taken the medicine venlafaxine which is the same
kind of medicine as the medicine in PRISTIQ have had lung problems. Symptoms of lung
problems include difficulty breathing, cough, or chest discomfort. Tell your healthcare
provider right away if you have any of these symptoms.
Common side effects with Pristiq include:
sleepiness
nausea
dizziness
loss of appetite
insomnia
anxiety
sweating
decreased sex drive
constipation
delayed orgasm and ejaculation
These are not all the possible side effects of Pristiq. Tell your healthcare provider about any
side effect that bothers you or does not go away. Call your doctor for medical advice about
side effects.

calorie burner

This run burns


and rms everything

By CAITLIN CARLSON

84 NOVEMBER 2015 SHAPE.COM

30-minute
express
workout

High Run Club, a fitness studio


in New York City whose group
treadmill-to-strength-training
classes are a hit with runners
and regular gym-goers alike.
And since you need to run only
a quarter mile at a time, anyone
can ace it. (But we guarantee
that after a few weeks of doing
this routine, youll also increase
your endurance.)
How it works: You do a
quarter mile at close-to-sprint
speed, then hop off the treadmill for a quick set or two of
kettlebell moves. The treadmill
quarters strengthen your lower
body because theyre at a fast
pace, Warner says. The kettlebell moves are dynamic, which
means that your heart rate
remains high and you continue
to burn calories as you firm your
abs and multiple upper-body
musclesincluding those in your
shoulders, chest, and arms
all while allowing your legs to
recover for the next sprint.
And a reminder as youre running your ass off: Research from
the University of New Mexico
showed that exercise boosts
your metabolism anywhere
from 15 minutes to 48 hours
postworkout, depending on how
hard you push it. So long, treadmill to nowhere. Ta-da!a totalbody workout on the belt with
a bonus calorie afterburn.

One of the top questions I get


asked is, Whats the best fit
tech? But what you choose
isnt as important as how you
use it. Some tips that will help.

GO MINI-GOAL WILD

Activity trackers give you


real-time progress and regular
updates. Embrace this. Let
your device send you as many
notifications as possible, and
use this info to set daily goals
(take 12,000 steps) or even
hourly ones (move for at least
two minutes). The more small
goals you check off, the more
momentum you create, making you more likely to check off
your big goals, according to
multiple studies.

FORGET CALORIES

Most trackers are 13 to


60 percent off base when it
comes to calorie burn, a study
by the American Council on
Exercise found. And lots have
trouble determining whether
youre bending over to deadlift
a barbell or to tie your shoe.
Accept that some of your work
will be ignored, and instead
focus on what kinds of
patterns youre making. When
are you exercising? How much
are you sitting? What kind of
sleep are you logging?
Together, this info can give
you a big-picture look at how
fit and healthy you are and
where you can stand to make
improvements.

CREATE A HUB

Many wearables and apps can


be connected, enabling you to
access all your data from one
place. The result: Keeping
track of everything you do to
get healthy is much easier.
Look at the set-up options of
your devices and apps to see
how to pair them.

White, R.D.N., the owner of

your body and help repair
muscles, so that hard workout you just did doesnt go
to waste. If you dont eat
something, you risk inhibiting recovery, White says.
He suggests eating at least
an hour before your head
hits the pillow to help ensure
that your body doesnt store
excess calories as fat. Base
how much you take in on
the workouts intensity. If
you did intervals, eat a little
more than if you did yoga.

Chelsey Hughes, the director of
operations for the Brick CrossFit
chain. This kind of programming,
in which you do different exercises at different intensities on
different days (called nonlinear
periodization), ensures that
youll load muscles at every angle,
so you continually see results,
Porcari says.

It may be intimidating at
first, but it can become a major
motivator: Defining success,
whether by competing against
others or yourself, is a great
way to go harder and further,
says Julie Partridge, Ph.D, an
associate professor of sport
and exercise psychology at
Southern Illinois University. It
gives you something tangible
(beyond getting a fit body) to
work toward. If youre focused
on being able to do five pull-ups
or run a seven-minute mile, the
aesthetic improvements just
happen, Hughes says.
It makes you sexy-strong
Were guessing your goal isnt
to look like the female version of
the Incredible Hulk. You wont.
Its practically impossible to
experience that kind of beefing

up unless youre genetically


predisposed to it and crushing
protein shakes five times a day,
Porcari says. Muscle bulk is
driven by testosterone, he
explains. You simply dont have
enough testosterone. Period.
If anything, youll get smaller.

7 reasons
to give CrossFit
a go

Calories dont stand a chance . . .


Women who did Donkey Kong
(a workout of the day, or WOD,
of 21 reps of burpees, kettlebell swings, and box jumps,
then 15 reps of each, then nine
of each) burned 117 calories in
about nine minutes, a study from
the University of Wisconsin
La Crosse showed. When they
did Fran (a WOD of 21, 15, then
nine reps of thrusters and pullups), they burned 64 calories in
about five minutes.

CrossFit also reigns supreme


when it comes to afterburn.
Because its so intense, your
metabolic rate is going to stay
elevated for a longer period
of time than with most other
types of exercise, Porcari says.
. . . Neither do other workouts
These high-intensity routines
also spike your VO2 max and
aerobic capacity. This means
youll be able to push longer and
harder in other workouts, from
steady runs to barre class, says
Steven Devor, Ph.D., the author
of the Ohio State study.
Weve had people who want
to do a half marathon or a
Spartan Race train primarily with
CrossFit rather than traditional
running programs because even
the short workouts increase
your aerobic capacity, making

And you cant avoid it:
The researchers found that
everyone experiences these
benefits, regardless of initial
level of aerobic fitness.
See progress with every class
CrossFit classes function like
a training schedule you would
follow if you were prepping for
a race. Boxes usually use fiveweek (or longer) programs.
For example, in one fiveweek cycle that focuses on
dead lifts, youre encouraged
to make sure that your last set
is always 5 percent heavier
than the previous weeks final
set. This ensures that youre
making small improvements
weekly and big improvements
over time, Hughes says.

Theres no get-fit limit


Most first-timers have
done plenty of cardio but
havent felt this kind of
strength before, says Chris
Cunningham, a CrossFit
coach in New York City who
trains many beginners.
Thanks to the progressive
programming, youll be surprised by how much more
youre able to do each week.
These physical feats double
as mental milestones that will
get you excited about what
youre capable of.
Theres always a next level,
Hughes says. Whether that
means adding five pounds
to a barbell lift, banging out
more push-ups, or using a
higher box for box jumps, you
get closer to your fittest, best
body with every class.

KNOW, THEN GO
Make sure you on-ramp. This
is a six- to 12-class prep course.
Youll learn the methodology

will assess your movement
patterns, says Chelsey Hughes
of Brick CrossFit.

Theyre each extremely healthy in their own way, but


together, cruciferous vegetables and a lean cut of steak
are a powerful combination, says Keri Gans, R.D.N.,
a Shape advisory board member and the author of The
Small Change Diet. In addition to protein and iron, beef
is rich in selenium, a mineral that boosts the immune
system, regulates thyroid hormones, and protects against
cancer. Broccoli, radishes, and other cruciferous veggies
also have cancer-fighting power, thanks to high levels
of the compound sulforaphane. Pair the two superstars
and youve got a delicious healthy dish.

Portion control also matters. While


you might measure out peanut butter
or nibble just a single square of chocolate, youre less likely to monitor how
much pineapple youre eating, says
Sonya Angelone, R.D.N., a spokeswoman for the Academy of Nutrition
and Dietetics, even though its natural
sweetness makes it easy to polish off
multiple portions in one sitting. Keep
in mind that a serving is just a half cup
of chopped fresh fruit (or one medium
piece), a quarter cup of dried fruit, or
a half cup of fruit juice. A small deli
container of fruit salad can easily hold
several portions, while some juice-bar

Fresh calories are still calories


Adding fruit to our diets doesnt necessarily lead to pounds lost, research suggests. Thats because we tend to tack
those servings on top of whatever else
were eating. A cookie seems like an
indulgence, so you may compensate by
eating less later on, Slayton says. But
with fruit, chances are you wont make
the same adjustment. Though some
diets call fruit a freebie that you dont
need to count in your daily tally, it does
have calories. For instance, a cup of
grapes has about 100 calories, which

is more than most medium cookies.


In fact, a recent study published in the
American Journal of Clinical Nutrition
found that dieters who increased their
intake of produce didnt lose a significant amount of weight. The key is to
replace energy-dense foods with fruit or
vegetables, says study author Kathryn
Kaiser, Ph.D., an instructor at the
University of Alabama at Birmingham
School of Public Health. So rather than
adding a side of berries to a pancake
breakfast, youre better off putting
them on top of your short stack in place
of syrup, a swap that can shave a few
hundred calories from brunch.

drinks deliver nearly six servingsand more


than 300 caloriesin one oversize cup.
Most of those calories come from fructose,
the main sugar in fruit. And while some recent
research linking fructose to weight gain and
cravings applies more to the concentrated dose
of sugar you get from drinks like soda (sweetened
with high-fructose corn syrup) than the amount
in an orange (which is bundled with nutrients and
hits your system more slowly), when you overdo
it on fruit, those sugar grams add up.
Fruit may not bust your hunger
Conventional diet wisdom says that thanks
to its high fiber content, fruit should keep you
satisfied for a long time. While thats partially
truean apple (about 100 calories) is much
more satisfying than 100 calories of processed
crackersfiber alone wont keep your stomach
from rumbling. That apple has four grams of
fiber but less than one gram each of protein and
fat, which are also key to satiety. In comparison,
a 100-calorie portion of almonds has two grams
of fiber plus nearly four grams of filling protein
and eight grams of healthy, hunger-busting fat.
Thats why its a good idea to pair fiber-rich fruit
with other foods that have fat and protein, like
nut butter and cheese, Slayton says.

So how much fruit should you eat?


Most healthy eaters should cap their intake at no
more than two pieces or cups of fresh fruit a day,
Slayton says. Of course that number varies from
person to person. If youre trying to lose weight,
stick with one piece or cup, but if youre training
for a marathon or are a regular at Spinning, you
can eat more, she explains.
To make the most of your servings, Slayton
suggests choosing fruit thats lower in calories
and sugar. (For the full rundown, see The Fruit
Sugar Scale, at right.) Opt for whole fruit rather
than juice or dried fruit, which both pack more
calories and sugar per ounce and are easier to
overeat. Cant give up your green juice? Pick
one thats made only with vegetables. Or blend
a smoothie, which doesnt filter out fiber and
so keeps you fuller longer, Angelone suggests.
If you need help kicking your overfruiting
habit, try swapping in vegetables, which tend to
be lower in calories and sugar. That way, youll
still get plenty of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. When it comes to produce, vegetables
have all the nutrients you need, but fruit doesnt.
Crunch on cucumbers or bell pepper slices
instead of your usual apple or grapes, or ask for
sliced tomato instead of fruit salad at breakfast.

If you want to really make a difference


in your energy levels, you need to start
at the source: your mitochondria, the
tiny dynamos that live in every cell of
the body. These powerhouses convert
food into adenosine triphosphate (ATP),
which becomes your bodys main source
of fuel. Mitochondria are so important
because they regulate the way the body
generates energy, explains Ann Marie
Chiasson, M.D., the assistant director of

the Fellowship in Integrative Medicine


at the University of Arizona. And that
process directly affects how quickly you
burn fat, how well you recover from exercise, your capacity to fight off disease,
and your ability to focus.
As you approach your forties, however, your mitochondria become more
sluggish and eventually die, thus draining
your energy, slowing your metabolism,
and weakening your immunity. Scientists

dont yet know why this happens, but


there is exciting new research that finds
certain habits can prevent and even
reverse the decline. No matter what your
age, fold the study-backed strategies
below into your routine, starting now.
The first thing youll notice is an increase
in your mental power. A few weeks
in, youll also see improvement in your
workout endurance and strengthyoull
probably drop a few pounds, too.

Ease up your cardio


High-intensity training delivers
fast results. But it also creates
something called oxidative
stress, says Keshav Singh,
Ph.D., a professor of genetics, pathology, and
environmental health
at the University of
Alabama School
of Medicine.
Pushing yourself
to your limit every
time you work out will
backfire, harming your
mitochondria and making you
feel tired and weak, he says.
Steady cardio, on the other
hand, boosts your circulation,
bringing more oxygen and nutrients to your cells without causing any additional strain. The
result: a two- to threefold bump
in the number of mitochondria in your muscles, brain, heart,
and lungs, Dr. Chiasson says. She
suggests aiming for 40 minutes
of moderate-intensity activity
(when youre able to speak in
short sentences but not carry on
a full conversation) three to five
days a week. When you do highintensity sessions, work them in
on the alternate days. Balance
is keyif you exercise hard one
day, rest or work out gently
the following day to allow your
mitochondria time to recover.

that causes muscle soreness later.

5 easy
rechargers

Eat healthier sugar


In the process of turning food
into ATP, mitochondria create
destructive by-products in
the form of free radicals, molecules that can damage cells. The
antioxidants and other nutrients in fruits, vegetables, and
lean meats help counteract the
negative effects of free radicals,

curcumin, a potent
antioxidant that

Keshav Singh,
Ph.D., says. Add it to
smoothies,
vegetable dishes,
and curries.

Cruciferous
vegetables

Broccoli, brussels
sprouts, and
cauliflower contain
sulforaphane, an
antioxidant, and
coenzyme Q10, a
compound that
helps your

showed. But sugary and processed foods cause the bad


molecules to multiply, and if you
eat too much junk food, your
mitochondrial function will
deteriorate, Singh says. Opt for
natural sources of sugar such
as fruit or organic honey, which
contain antioxidants that may
help protect your cells and keep
your energy high while satisfying your sweet craving.
Try a detox diet
Restricting your food intake to
no more than 500 calories a day
once or twice a week is extreme,
but it can be beneficial to your
mitochondria, Dr. Chiasson
says. Such a diet appears to
boost levels of brain-derived
neurotrophic factor, a protein
thats critical to the growth
of new mitochondria, recent
research in the journal Nature
Communications revealed.
Occasional fasts also make your
body more sensitive to insulin
and reduce inflammation, both
of which help your mitochondria work harder. If you want to
try it, eat healthy low-cal fiberand protein-rich foods like
chicken and veggies and guzzle
water on the days you fast.

Use a foam roller


every time you sweat
Massaging your tired limbs for
just 10 minutes after a sweat
session causes a spike in PGC-1a,
a protein that fuels mitochondrial growth in your muscles,
according to a study in the
journal Science Translational
Medicine. That extra surge
may speed muscle recovery
and bump up your endurance capacity, explains Mark
Tarnopolsky, M.D., Ph.D., the
author of the study. But skip the
gentle rollout and use a faster,
more vigorous technique. The

Sleep more
soundly
An estimated
25 million
Americans suffer
from obstructive sleep
apnea (OSA), a disorder
that occurs when you stop
breathing for anywhere from
a few seconds to more than
a minute repeatedly throughout the night. You dont wake
up, but you also never really sink
into deep sleep. Besides making
you feel exhausted and raising your risk of a range of health
problems like heart disease,
that lack of quality zzzs triggers
oxidative stress and inflammation, which in turn damage your
mitochondrial DNA, according
to recent research from the
University of Foggia in Italy. If
you snore (even when youre
not stuffy), Kathleen Bennett,
the president of the American
Academy of Dental Sleep
Medicine, recommends seeing
a sleep doctor for diagnosis.
Treatment can be as simple as
wearing a fitted mouth guard to
bed. But because some women
with OSA dont snore, see your
M.D. if you consistently wake up
in the morning feeling tired.

Better sex, less stress

If youre convinced that everyone else is having more sex than you are, get over it. Jumping
into bed just because you feel as if you should boost the action can backfire. In a new study
at Carnegie Mellon University, couples who were asked to have sex twice as often as they
usually did enjoyed each session significantly less, and they also felt more stressed. When sex
becomes an obligation, its less pleasurable, says George Loewenstein, Ph.D., the lead author
of the study. If the desire is there, youll naturally fall into a pattern of having sex about as
often as you want to, he adds. Instead of worrying about quantity, focus on having fun. Its
a lot easier to do that when youre not feeling anxious about some self-imposed quota.

Leaking when you lift weights,


run, or do other activities that
put sudden pressure on your
abdomen, such as laughing or
coughing, is known as stress
urinary incontinence (SUI),
says Deepak A. Kapoor, M.D.,
the president of Advanced
Urology Centers of New York.
Though it may be embarrassing, its pretty common, and
there are ways to treat it.
SUI occurs when your pelvic
floor muscles are too weak
to support the opening of

your bladder during strenuous activities, often as a


result of childbirth. When
youre strainingto finish
your 15th kettlebell swing, for
instancethe muscles cant
keep urine from leaking out,
Dr. Kapoor explains.
Make sure to continue
drinking enough water to stay
hydrated during the day. It
sounds counterintuitive
in fact, many women restrict
their liquids, thinking it will
lead to less leakingbut
dehydration just concentrates the urine, Dr. Kapoor
warns. That can increase
odor and may cause

irritation as well. He suggests simply going to the


bathroom right before your
gym session. You can also
try Poise Impressa Bladder
Supports ($14, walmart.com),
a tampon-like insert designed
to support the bladder and
help prevent leaks, so you
can power through your WOD
without a care. Of course, if
the problem happens every
time you lift heavy weights,
see your doctor to discuss
treatments, including Kegels
to strengthen your pelvic
muscles. (And yes, they really
do work when done correctly,
Dr. Kapoor says.)

Lewis found that often people


who said they werent stressed or

So whats to blame? It may
be a factor of todays culture of
busyness. Were spending more

Simultaneously, were spending

arent doing whats important to
us, or that when we are, we arent
noticing it because were too busy

Theres a sneaky type of anxiety


that lurks beneath your consciousness, undetected for the most part
but certainly not inert. This isnt
that obvious angst we feel when
were under recognizable duress,
but rather a vague mental and
physical state that experts call iceberg stress, so named because the
teeny tip that is apparent on the
surface is nothing compared with
whats looming below. Iceberg
stress can be triggered by habits so ingrained that we may not
always be aware of them, such
as perfectionism or negative selftalk, explains David Lewis, Ph.D.,
a psychologist and a fellow of the
International Stress Management
Association. For instance, you
look at your neighbors house and
lament that yours will never be as
chic; at work, you worry that your
boss is frustrated with you. This
type of thinking becomes so automatic that you dont even notice it,
but the accompanying tension is
building quietly and doing physical
and emotional damage.
Another way to understand iceberg stress is to think of it as like
living next to a busy highway, Lewis
continues. After a while you stop
hearing the traffic. But that doesnt
mean the fumes and the noise
arent getting to you. In his research,

Program at Massachusetts
General Hospital. The effects
of stress accumulate, and the
body loses its ability to regulate cholesterol, blood sugar,
metabolism, and emotions.
Your first line of defense is to
recognize the signs of iceberg
stress. If you find yourself criticizing yourself and the people
around you or ruminating on
little problems that you consciously know arent worth it,
youre probably struggling. Not
being able to cope with everyday aggravations is one of the
surest clues, Lewis says.
In addition, pay attention to
the signals your body is sending you. Everyone has a tell,
Lewis says. For example, after
a few hours at work, you may
have back pain or a headache.
Your system is ramping up its
production of stress hormones,
such as adrenaline, and increasing inflammation to give you the
energy and protection it thinks
you need to plow through,
Baim explains. Thats how it
deals with the tension, but that,
in turn, can lower your brains
threshold for additional stress.
Your next step is to try to ID
whats eating away at you. Each
night before bed, jot down your
feelings from throughout the
day, Lewis suggests. Dont hold
backmake note of anything
that pops into your head. At
the end of the week, read the
entries and look for patterns,
like recurring feelings of jealousy or inadequacy. These are
things that contribute to iceberg stress, and when theyre
out in the open, youll be better
able to recognize and deal with
them going forward, he says.

Get personal
It takes face-to-face time
with your tribe to really connect. Facebook and texting
can fill in some gaps, says Jean
M. Twenge, Ph.D., the author
of Generation Me, but its sort
of like eating junk food when
what you really need is a healthy
meal. As we all know, most
people post only the good stuff
on social media, tempting you
to compare your life with theirs
and to feel that youre falling
short, a big trigger of iceberg
stress. But when you sit down
and have a heart-to-heart
with a friend, you get the whole
storythe bad and the good
Twenge says. Plus, it feels therapeutic to spill the latest details
about whats going on in your
life. In the process, you might
express thoughts and feelings
that you didnt even know were
gnawing at you.

Tone down your workout


(you read that right)
Your heart-thumping cardio
blast is great for busting stress
in general, but the problem with
intense workouts is that they
tend to focus on achieving some
optimum goal (how many reps
you do, how speedy you are),
encouraging you to pressure
yourself to beat your last PR
or to out-exercise your fitness
frenemy. That sense of competition and purpose can be fun
and healthy, but if youre really
suffering from iceberg stress, it
can exacerbate the matter.
Instead, every day until you
feel calmer overall, set aside
time to take an outdoor stroll,
Lewis says. If youre really craving a sweat, pick up the pace
and run, but leave your tracker
at home, suggests Carrie Roldan,
the author of Run Yourself
Once you have a sense of whats Happy. Think I need to run
to feel good, to quiet my mind,

connect to what really matters,


so it becomes a meditation
in motion.
Breathe better
Each time your smartphone
pings, take a deep belly breath,
then slowly exhale before
checking the notification. It
may seem a little silly, but these
moments of mindfulness add
up to something powerful.
Deep breathing activates your
parasympathetic nervous system, which slows your heart
rate, delivers more oxygen to
your brain, and turns off your
bodys stress response, lowering
levels of cortisol, Baim explains.
Find your purpose
Ask yourself, What matters
most to me in life? Then brainstorm ways to stay connected
with that greater purpose every
day. If your big passion is to help
others, for instance, volunteer
with a group like Girls on the
Run, which teaches preteens
self-confidence through running. When were connecting to something thats really
meaningful to us, it builds up
a sort of buffer zone between
ourselves and the constant
pressures that contribute to
below-the-surface stress, says
Jack Groppel, Ph.D., a founder of
the Johnson & Johnson Human
Performance Institute.
Claim a mantra
The more you repeat negative,
competitive, or self-defeating
thoughts (like My butt never
looks good in yoga pants),
the more hard-wired they
become, Baim says. To keep
these downer beliefs from
sticking, find a few positive oneliners and make them your cell
phones wallpaper. When you
see them, repeat them to yourself so that they become fixed in
your brain. Soon, theyll crowd
out the negative.

THE MOTIVATION
Two years ago, Joanna
discovered that her
health was at risk after
she gained 50 pounds.
My doctor told me that
if I didnt change my
lifestyle, I could end up
with type 2 diabetes,
says the mental health
therapist. I quickly
chose to get healthy.

NAME Joanna Harberts


AGE 36
HOME Ventura, California
START WEIGHT 196 lb
CURRENT WEIGHT 143 lb

THE WORKOUT
Joanna joined a gym
and invested in personal training sessions
that combined cardio,
weights, and highintensity intervals.
I was so out of shape
I threw up after my
first workout! she says.
She also logged time on
the treadmill, elliptical,
and stairclimber.

THE DIET
Joanna gave up grilled
cheese sandwiches
and began eating lean
protein, vegetables,
and whole grains. But
she battled sugar and
fat cravings. Id tell
myself, junk food isnt
worth itmy health is
more important, she
says. Within a month,
the cravings subsided.

THE PAYOFF
Joanna lost about two
pounds a week over
10 months. She is now
a size 4. More important, she is no longer
at risk for diabetes.
It took a lot of hard
work, but I can do things
I only dreamed of, like

Think about it

PLAY WITH THE CLICH. Being thankful around Thanksgivingits so obvious, that
the mandate quickly becomes white noise this time of year. But dont let it.
And heres why: People who feel gratitude have better moods, better sleep, less
fatigue, and lower levels of inflammatory biomarkers (an indicator of heart disease
risk) than those who dont indulge in the practice, a recent study found. When
our bodies are in a fight-or-flight modefor example, when were frantically rushing to meet a deadlineour heart rate and blood pressure increase in response,
explains study author Laura Redwine, Ph.D., the associate director of the Center
of Excellence for Research and Training in Integrative Health at the University
of California, San Diego. Taking a few moments to focus on the now and express
gratitude can bring us out of our busy heads and back to a relaxed state.
Maybe youre not a journaler who jots down your good fortune. So play around
reminders to thank someone programmed into your phone three times a day might
work for you. Move past the hokey undertones and love what you have.

now I wear it everywhere.

Flatten your belly overnight. Im vegan


and I love bread, but recently, I started
making dinner a breadless meal. Ill have
a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast, and Ill
make a sandwich on Ezekiel bread for
lunch, but in the evening Ill have protein
and vegetables and no bread. When
I wake up, my belly is flat!

Find your chill time. I think its important


to sit quietly every day for 10 minutes. In
the morning, I enjoy my cup of coffee and
plan the day in my head to be ready for
it. And sometimes at night, I sip a glass of
red wine and just relax. Ive learned to
give myself a break.

announces Carrie Underwood, 32,


the singing sensation and clothing
designer. For me, its the key to
being happy and healthy. Though
its dicult to nd spare time
these days, she admits. Thats not
a surprise, considering Carrie and
her husband, the hockey player
Mike Fisher, are new parents of a
10-month-old son, Isaiah, and that
in addition to diaper duty, shes
promoting her CD Storyteller,
hosting the Country Music Awards
on November 4, and designing her
popular new line of workout wear,
Calia, which she just presented
at New York Fashion Week in
September. Still, the Nashville
native has her priorities set. Here,
the creeds by which she lives . . .
and exercises.

Make 30 minutes the magic number.


After I had Isaiah, my goal was to take
control of my body again. I was lucky:
I gained only 30 pounds, which is the
recommended amount, and I exercised throughout my pregnancy. I did
have a C-section, which meant waiting
six weeks before working out. Within
10 days, though, I was able to begin walking slowly on the treadmill and around
my neighborhood. It felt so good to
be active! When I got the OK from my
doctor, I started exercising with my
trainer. Now we box and we hike trails,
among other things. I like to continually
mix up my routines to stay motivated.
But my favorite workout is Tabata,
which I can do at home in about a half
hour. Im in love with it! Its hard, but
it really works. I choose seven different
exercises, like squats, lunges, or pushups, and do eight rounds of each
20 seconds on, 20 seconds off for eight
rounds. It really revs up my metabolism.
When Im done, I can handle anything.

THIS
WORKOUT
IS HOT!

STRONG,
Styling by Audrey Slater; hair by David Cruz/Kramer + Kramer for Oribe Hair Care; makeup by Brian Duprey/Judy Casey, Inc., for Nars

Thats the trademark Pilates


body. Do this next-level version and you can
add chiseled, fit, and fierce to the list. And you
wont need a fancy machine or quirky tone-up
tool to get there. Thanks to her tweaks to the
workout styles signature small moves, instructor
Karen Lord, the owner of the Karen Lord Pilates
Movement studio in New York City, has created
a bolder technique that gets deeper into your
muscles and leads to even more results from the
scientifically proven mat classics.
Youll shake, burn, and work your hardest, but
I promise that youll actually achieve the toning
youre hoping to see, says Lord, whose transformative classes draw many professional athletes,
including runners prepping for big races.
Experience her modern approach (Lords
motto: Out with the old and in with the exciting
new) with this workout that she created for
Shape. If youve done Pilates before, the moves
may look familiar at first, but they each have an
added challenge that makes the difference.
While traditional Pilates favors the abs, this
routine puts all of your major muscles through
the paces. Every movement starts in your
core and then radiates to your arms and legs,
Lord says. Because you have to focus intently
on your posture and connecting your breath
to each movement, youll use almost every muscle you have, which helps you build an exceedingly strong core and a gorgeous, balanced
body, she says.

Lords style is the opposite ofand adds a


nice counterpoint tothe AMRAP-heavy workout world we live in. You wont get breathless
or be sweat-drenched. Youll lift, press, and
extend in slo-mo, thereby feeling a deep burn
not present in many other workouts. Slower can
be harder, because you take time to start the
movement in the muscle, not the joint, she says.
Its crucial to getting results and avoiding injury.
Dont worry if your body trembles on your final
reps. That means youre doing something new
and challenging and making changes in your
muscles, Lord explains. Focus on balance, then
alignment. (The pointers in Form Check on page
159 will help you with both.) You cant tap into your
body too much, Lord says. Is your jaw tight? Youre
clenching your neck instead of working your abs.
Are your shoulders crunched up to your ears?
Thats a lot of tension and wasted energy. These
are go-to areas that we typically feel comfortable
getting to do the dirty work for the often weaker
abdominals, which can be trickier to find and fire
up, she says. Lord calls these form fixes her little
big deals. They turn something thats easy to
cheat through into something body-changing.
Life-changing as well, Lord would argue.
When you do this workout, youll experience an
endorphin release, of course, but connecting
your mind to your movements is really profound,
she explains. Life becomes a litter sharper, and
you feel less anxious. Flip the page and we
guarantee youll become a believer.

FORM CHECK
Think of this as your to-do list for
every single move. It may seem like
a lot, but its the recipe for sculpting success.
Breathe! That means deep, lungexpanding inhalations and slow,
noisy, and deliberate exhalations.
Keep your shoulders away
from your ears, and your neck
and spine long.
Lift up and out of your joints;
pull your abs in toward your spine
and energetically upward.
Watch for hyperextension in your
elbows and knees, and correct it
when it happens by softening your
arms and legs.
Keep your wrists straight, your
fingers long, and your toes spread.
Speaking of wrists, theyre
a common weak point, and if they
hurt during any of the moves,
lower yourself onto your forearms.
If your lower back starts to feel
cranky, tuck your pelvis under to
redirect the work back to your abs.
Take your time.

HOW WE EAT NOW :: Part 3

Same food.

168 NOVEMBER 2015 SHAPE.COM

Happier attitude.
The new emotional eating.

Its not about


using food to soothe
our negative emotions
or comfort us after a
bad day. The newest
thinking is that putting
emotion into our meals can
actually improve our
health and even help us
lose weight. In this special
report,the third in a
series on our relationship
with food right now,
Shape investigates this
intriguing new concept.
By Jennifer Miller
Illustration by Guyco

HOW WE EAT NOW :: Part 3

or Liz Katz, a busy marketing manager in New


York City, food is mainly about functionality. Ive
always loved to eat, but my priorities have changed,
says Liz, 27, who grew up watching cooking shows
but now doesnt like to set foot in the grocery store,
lest she be tempted by cookies and crackers. Im
cutting back on carbs, so I mostly have a lot of kale
salads and grilled chicken at my desk, she explains.
My meals are healthy and convenient.
What they are not is particularly pleasurable. For
a growing number of Americans, eating has become
a mission to get as many good nutrients, such as
protein, fiber, and antioxidants, as we can in the least
amount of time. We also dont want to become too
emotionally invested in food, because if we do, we
might overeat or consume the wrong things, like
bread and cupcakes. Consequently, meals are no
longer about the joy of savoring a delicious wholegrain dish or a perfectly cooked piece of fish, but
a perfunctory Im hungry, so let me eat something
quick, easy, and healthy and get back to concentrating on the zillion other things I need to do.
We are so concerned about consuming whats
good for usfood that will make us healthier, energized, and productive enough to power through our
jam-packed daysand so fearful that if we allow
ourselves to indulge in something bad, well lose
all control and take in thousands of excess calories,
that we dont think much about loving each bite.
But while our intentions are good (healthy eating is
proved by countless studies to help us live longer),
if we dont enjoy what were eating, were less likely
to feel satisfied andsurprise!more likely to overeat, experts say. Not to mention the fact that were
missing out on the bliss that a delicious meal, lingered
over and shared with loved ones, can bring. Eating
can and should be a joyful process, says Jenny Taitz,
a clinical psychologist in New York City.

CONVENIENCE AT A COST
Ironically, weve never been more obsessed with food,
thanks largely to social media and food TV shows, yet
were far too busy to savor it. Sixty-six million of us
are opportunist eaters, who consume meals on the
go, according to IRI, a consumer research company.
We grab a smoothie on the way to work and call it
breakfast. We snack on almonds while driving in the
car. And we eat a protein bar as we head home from
the gym at night. But when youre munching on the
run, you barely have time to register the flavor or

170 NOVEMBER 2015 SHAPE.COM

texture of the food youre eating. Its not satisfying


in the way that sitting down and really tasting
your food is, says Elisa Zied, R.D.N., a nutritionist
in New York City.
Convenience is a key factor driving many of
our food choices, because of our fast-paced lives,
explains Kelly Weikel, the director of consumer
insights at Technomic, Inc., a research and consulting firm that collects data about food and eating
trends. Circumstances are forcing us to eat this
way. Thirty-two percent of people say they often
have no choice but to eat on the go, and 21 percent
say they almost never have time to stop and enjoy
a meal, according to the Technomic Consumer
Trend Report Series.
Its not surprising then that were cooking a lot
less than previous generations did. Only slightly
more than half of Americans make a meal on any
given day. We actually spend less time cooking
and eating than any other developed nation in the
world, data from the Organization for Economic
Cooperation and Development shows. Were also
much more likely to eat alone than ever before.
Almost half of all meals and snacks are now consumed solo, according to a survey by the Hartman
Group. Approximately 53 percent of us have breakfasts on our own, often in the car or at the office,
and 46 percent of us eat lunch by ourselves. Even
dinner is increasingly becoming a solitary affair,
experts say. Without anyone to talk to as we eat
our meals, we tend to park ourselves in front of the
TV or computer. We eat mindlessly while being
entertained or doing work, says nutritionist Dawn
Jackson Blatner, R.D.N., a Shape advisory board
member. The problem is, when we multitask, we
end up consuming more and enjoying it less.
Leisurely dining has been almost completely
tossed by the wayside. Today, the average American
spends just a little more than an hour a day eating
all three meals plus snacks, according to a recent
survey from the Bureau of Labor Statistics on how
we spend our time. Eating has become just another
chore to speed through and cross off our to-do list,
and we think thats fine as long as we keep our food
choices healthy and dont end up drowning our sorrows in a bottomless bowl of mac and cheese. But its
not. We may be filling up our stomachs, but the part
of us that yearns for a meaningful food experience is
starving. Eating is one of the greatest pleasures there
is, Zied says. Take the joy out of it and you end up
feeling empty and unhappy.

FOOD AS CONNECTION
When it comes to healthy, pleasurable dining, we
can learn a lot from Blue Zones, places in countries
such as Greece, Italy, and Japan where people live
the longest and rank among the happiest in the world.
You never see people in Blue Zones eating with one
hand on the steering wheel, says Dan Buettner, the
author of The Blue Zone Solution: Eating and Living
Like the Worlds Healthiest People. When they eat
there are no distractions.
In his research, Buettner found that not only
does sharing a healthy meal with friends and family
make people happy and relaxed, but it can also lead
to a leaner, healthier body. You carve out the time
for it, surround yourself with people you like, and
socially connect with them, he explains. That lowers the production of the stress hormone cortisol,
which, at elevated levels, can interfere with digestion
and cause us to store excess calories as fat, especially
in our midsection. When youre in a hurry, worried,
or lonely, cortisol triggers an inflammatory response
in your body that can lead to disease, Buettner says.
Eating together helps prevent that damaging effect
by stopping stress.
Cooking a meal, even a simple one, rather than
grabbing food to go also gives us a chance to decompress and to express ourselves creatively. We spend
much of our day working and emailing on the
computer and texting from our smartphones. We
rarely make anything tangible. Kneading dough for
a pizza crust or whisking together olive oil, vinegar,
and herbs for a salad dressing reminds us of that
pleasure. Cooking is so nurturing and fulfilling in
this crazy world where everything keeps moving
faster and things are more and more superficial and
homogeneous, says Michael Moss, a food journalist.
Its one thing that I can do today in fairly short order
and be really proud of.
Moss recalls following a recipe for marinara sauce,
which said to drain the liquid from canned whole
plum tomatoes and then crush them in a bowl with
your hands. Oh my God, was it amazing! he says.
When you feel and touch and taste ingredients, its
childlike. I dont think theres enough time in our
lives for that kind of thing anymore.

BRING JOY BACK INTO YOUR MEALS


Instead of focusing only on the nutrients and the
convenience factor of the foods we eat, or fretting
that one scoop of ice cream will lead to polishing off
the entire carton, we need to get back in touch with

the pleasure of good food and how it makes us feel,


experts say. This kind of emotional eating is something we should all aspire to. Here are four simple
ways to help make it happen.

Stop multitasking. Research shows that people


consume considerably more food the longer they
watch TV, says Brian Wansink, Ph.D., the director of the Cornell Food and Brand Lab at Cornell
University. Thats because your brain isnt really
registering how much youre taking in. Sit at a table
and turn off any electronic devices in the room (that
includes your phone) every time you eat.
Eat more mindfully. Instead of scarfing down your
meals, bring your full attention to each bite of food,
Taitz says. Really experience the taste, the texture,
the smell. Eating this way helps you appreciate
food more and makes meals special.
Cook when you can. Whether youre just tossing
together spaghetti with some plum tomatoes and
fresh herbs or quickly stir-frying vegetables and
chicken, cooking your own meals, even occasionally,
makes you more emotionally invested in what
youre eating, experts say.

Dine with others. Almost nothing beats the joy


of sharing good food with people you love. I try
to make dinner for my husband every night, says
Molly Yeh, the author of an award-winning food
blog. Thats special time for the two of us, when we
sit down at the table, experience a dish together, and
have a real conversation. Doing this connects us to
the food and to each other.

Sharing a healthy
meal with loved
ones makes us
more relaxed and
can even lead
to a leaner body.
