The usual bad mood at the change of season? A little mental fatigue? Excessive nervousness from stress? But instead of running to lie down on the psychoanalyst\\\'s couch, rush to the nearest analysis laboratory holding a beautiful specimen of urine… Once you find a deficiency of one or more neurotransmitters, it\\\'s possible to intervene with the right foods to recreate a state of equilibrium…

That neurotransmitters affect our mood has long been known. 

What is important now is not to discover the psychological mechanisms that mark our mood swings, but to measure the neurotransmitters circulating in our blood, a group of substances (including serotonin, epinephrine, norepinephrine and dopamine GABA...) that act on the nervous system in various ways: they make us feel relaxed, unleash aggression, wake up our defense and warning systems and improve concentration… 

The serenity switch: serotonin

The neurotransmitter that regulates sleep patterns, the pain threshold and the feeling of satiety. It is also the switch for calmness, serenity and balance. If you have a serotonin deficiency: always eat a lunch of pasta and rice, the foods most suitable for you.

The messenger of adventure: dopamine

The neurotransmitter stimulates us to be adventurous, to conquer and compete. Seeking gratification, even at the table. A dopamine deficiency, which often occurs in moments of stress, makes us feel tired, unmotivated, sad and apathetic. If you have a dopamine deficiency: meat and fish (but also cheese, eggs and cold cuts) are ideal for you.

A plateful of legumes, such as beans or lentils once or twice a week..

They are packed with proteins rich in tryptophan and phenylalanine, which are precursors of serotonin and dopamine.

Oily fish, such as mackerel, sardines or salmon once or twice a week.

These fish contain EPA, an omega-3 fatty acid, which studies have shown to be virtually as effective as Prozac in treating depressed patients.

Shellfish or organ meat, such as oysters, mussels, sea snails, shrimp, liver or kidney once a week.

These foods have high iron, zinc, copper and vitamin B6 content. This vitamin and mineral cocktail helps restore your body’s optimal proportion of dopamine and serotonin

Bon Appetit !

From foundation to mascara here are some make-up secrets dedicated to the over 40'...... with a single attention: the illuminant. Important: it's not necessarily a question of looking younger, simply to make the most of the natural changes in our face.

If she is not in a hurry, the Parisian tries to start the day with a pleasurable breakfast, prepared to perfection. Starting the day with a balanced breakfast is so fun and, above all, healthy... If you are among those who go to work without having breakfast, perhaps the time has arrived to change such a bad habit and transform your breakfast into another glamorous and healthy moment.


 

\"240In addition to feeling satisfied by starting the day with a pleasurable moment, the Parisian sees breakfast as an ally to her health and well-being. Those days when she used to bite an apple while running to work are over. The Parisian has finally realized that this act did not appease her hunger (a fruit is indeed rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, but it is absolutely not enough for breakfast). By filling up with energy in the morning, the Parisian can be more efficient in managing her superfast day in Paris.

That said, Paris is not France. One out of five French still do not eat breakfast in the morning. Consequence: most work accidents tend to happen around 11 a.m. Skipping this meal may create the conditions for the onset or aggravation of cardiovascular disease or diabetes.

Nutritional information:

A morning breakfast must cover at least 20% of daily energy needs. It must be sufficiently abundant and balanced, and contain slow-absorption sugars, fibers, and vitamins, not to mention liquids (fresh fruit juices, coffee, tea, and water).

Mistakes to be avoided:\"240

• Abstaining from fats (a fat-free meal can make you feel hungry as early as an hour later). Tricks for supplementing fats: indeed have a yogurt in the morning, but not 0% fat. Opt instead for a \"light to low fat\" yogurt. Add nuts to keep the sense of hunger away. A small amount is enough.

• Not eating enough protein (it is slower to digest than carbohydrates, so if the amount of protein taken is scarce, you will be hungry too soon). Tricks for a protein supplement: add a hard-boiled egg or a wholewheat toast spread with plenty of peanut or almond butter for breakfast.

• Not eating enough fibers (the more sugar in the grains you eat in the morning, the faster the fibers are digested and the hungrier you will be). On the other hand, more fiber will fill you up much longer). Tricks for a fiber supplement: add chia or flax seeds (there should always be at least 5 grams of fiber, and more fiber than sugar).

\"Early-morning\" parfait recipe:

Into a large, stemmed glass, pour alternating layers of the following ingredients: natural yogurt, fruit slices, and passion fruit pulp (and pomegranate), then sprinkle toasted granola or chopped nut kernels all over.

\"240\"Morning\" tricks:

• To keep bread soft and fresh for a long time: wrap it in a dish towel (if it is kept in a plastic bag, the bread will tend to become chewy and tasteless).

• To prevent butter from hardening too much, fill a bowl with water and immerse the stick of butter, wrapped in its original packaging. Put everything in the least cold part of the refrigerator.

• To prevent milk from sticking to  the bottom of the pot: before pouring the milk, rinse the pot with cold water and do not dry it.

• To prevent soft-boiled eggs from breaking when immersed in boiling water: nestle the eggs into the nook of a spoon and pass a little hot water over them several times before laying them gently in the pot.

Remove breakfast stains:\"240

• Jam: after removing the jam, pour sparkling water on the stain and let it work.

• Red fruits: wash the stain with water mixed with a little ammonia.

• Coffee: immediately sprinkle the stain with salt, which will completely absorb the coffee.

• Tea: wash as soon as possible with laundry detergent.

Se c’e’ una cosa che i parigini amano, e lo si nota quotidianamente a Parigi, é lo sport! A cominciare dalla course à pied (camminata veloce o footing). Si parla di cosa si può facilmente vedere per le strade, beh, questo é il primo e forse più banale esempio di sport praticabile a Parigi. E non solo ovviamente...


\"\\"GKNUODVP3DO2CB52LFUCOA6TI4\\"\"

Lo sport più praticato è di sicuro la corsa. La città, malgrado l’elevato tasso di inquinamento atmosferico, offre diversi spazi verdi dove fare jogging. Gli argini della Senna, chiusi la domenica agli automobilisti, vantano un paesaggio fantastico di cui possono usufruire pedoni e gli amanti della corsa.

Ad ovest della città ci sono numerosi tracciati di corsa a piedi. Il Bois de Boulogne è un parco situato  lungo la Senna ed uno dei più grandi e più frequentati spazi verdi della città. Anche nel centro di Parigi si può praticare dello sport all’aperto. Sia all’interno del giardino delle Tuileries che del parco Monceau si può praticare la corsa a piedi. Anche i giardini del Lussemburgo offrono un bello spazio verde. Nella zona Sud di Parigi, trovate il parco di Bercy e quello di Montsouris. Ad Est ci sono il parco de la Villette ed il parco di Buttes-Chaumont, rispettivamente il primo e il terzo giardino più grandi di Parigi.

L’aspetto positivo da queste parti é che non sarete mai soli ! Una parola per il parco della Città \"\\"\"Universitaria: non é grandissimo, ma é sempre aperto e frequentato, anche d’inverno quando la sera la gente preferisce stare al calduccio. Una nota va anche agli stadi con pista di atletica, spesso aperti al pubblico.

Altro sport, il nuoto

A Parigi ci sono 39 piscine aperte al pubblico tutto l’anno. Ogni struttura ha i suoi orari di apertura che trovate affissi all’entrata oppure nel sito paris.fr.

\"\\"piscine-parigi-1\\"\"Da Settembre a Giugno alcune piscine accolgo di preferenza studenti (durante il giorno). Nel periodo delle vacanze scolastiche e in Luglio ed Agosto, gli orari di apertura al pubblico subiscono delle variazioni.

Le piscine sono numerose e il costo é estremamente basso. La piscina Pontoise si trova vicino al Boulevard Saint-Germain ed è dotata anche di campi da squash, un centro fitness e cardio, corsi di aqua gym, nuoto e sauna. La Château-Landon è una piscina municipale e si trova nel 10 arrondissement. La piscina Josephine Baker, nel 13 arrondissement, è scoperta in estate. La grande piscina Aquaboulevard si trova alle porte del 15 arrondissement ed è un vero e proprio parco acquatico con 10 scivoli ad acqua, vasche molto ampie e varie jacuzzi per la gioia di grandi e piccini. Evitate di andarci nel fine settimana perché c’è sempre molta gente. La domenica sera invece l’atmosfera è più tranquilla.

E per finire, come non citare la piscina Molitor nel 16 arrondissement, una delle strutture storiche di Parigi!

Il tennis

Un altro sport estremamente popolare. A Parigi ci sono molti campi da tennis, la maggior parte si trovano nel 12, 13, 14, 15 e 20esimo arrondissements. Sul \"\\"tennis\"sito http://www.paris.fr/tennis é possibile, previa iscrizione, prenotare un campo da tennis a tariffe estremamente convenienti. Per quanto riguarda i corsi di tennis, esistono moltissimi club per ogni arrondissement: unico problema (anche qui: nulla di nuovo per chi conosce Paris..) l’iscrizione va fatta presentando dossier con mesi e mesi di anticipo…

Mood swings from the lockdown, we all have them... Feeling tired, too much stress, too much easy food? It is possible that you have a deficit of one or more neurotransmitters, and in addition to the good book or an hour of indoor sports or a fun game, you can resort to nutrition, which - if studied properly - can recreate a state of balance.

\"Age is only a number! \", that\'s what magazines, blogs, coaches tell you... But how do you do it when you feel the first signs of aging, the body getting tired, the first wrinkles settling in......?  In the imagination of most Parisian women, aging well is a difficult challenge to meet. Physical state is more important than mental or moral state when they think about ageing.


For 77% of French people, \"bien vieillillir\" is considered as a marketing term because in reality, we age as best we can. Nevertheless, for 50% ageing well means being healthy, for 44% it means cultivating a certain state of mind, for 28% enjoying life and the present moment and for 31% being active (activities, travel, sport...). Finally, for 25% of them, it is above all about having a social life and being surrounded. 

Okay, it\'s clear, aging well means above all aging in good health, so medical checks and follow-ups, etc. And then... for the majority of Parisian women interviewed, aging well means knowing how to enjoy the present moment, being happy and fulfilled and anticipating. And take care of your diet, sleep, exercise, be active...

THE FOOD

Food is our first drug. It is therefore important to adapt what we eat and drink to who we are, to our constitution but also to the season, climate, time of day... \"7100-nathalie

Our lifestyle and our diet are very often a source of imbalance and acidity and even oxidation of our body. Let us limit the consumption of refined products, ready-to-eat meals and reconnect with simpler, more natural food. Let\'s try to focus on cereals such as rice (rather than foods that have been processed such as pasta or bread), vegetables and fruit (rather than frozen or canned foods). It is up to us to select the foods you choose carefully to give your body the least reason to age prematurely.

For information... White wine is much more acidifying than red wine, cheese is also acidifying, exciting products like coffee, tea (even green), also...

The Mediterranean diet, where fresh food is selected, olive oil is used daily, vegetables are cooked, is often rightly cited as an example.

SKIN

The best anti-aging care is certainly the attention you will pay to yourself. Every day, whether it\'s morning or evening, give yourself some time in your bathroom. The first step in restoring a radiant face is probably the skin cleansing step. Masks to cleanse or regenerate the fragile skin of the face can eliminate excess sebum, small impurities or restore a \"pelle-biofotonica-gel-naturali-lampada-27060\"radiant complexion. 

Anyway, one golden rule: never go to bed with makeup! Make sure to remove make-up from the face with a milk and then with a lotion, and then moisturize the skin well (morning and evening). Self-massages on the face are very effective on a daily basis to restore elasticity, suppleness and radiance to your complexion. You can also use small soft plastic suction cups to smooth and drain and the face: on wrinkles, between the eyes and on the forehead, around the mouth, always pulling outwards and ideally to the back of the ears at the lymph nodes that will do the detox work. 

Finally, facial yoga is a daily practice to be discovered. Working the facial muscles remains the key to giving them the necessary tone and looking younger and more fulfilled. Smile and laughter are super botoxes that are natural and within everyone\'s reach.

THE HAIR

With age, hair dries out, breaks, bleaches, grayscales, frizzles, falls out. So we must... treat them! To stimulate growth, limit fall, stop the production of dandruff, make it shiny and strong, feed it, moisturize it and cut it when necessary. A good remedy: a coconut oil bath, to be applied a few hours before washing them, or the whole night before shampooing. Finally, use natural products to wash them and wash them only once or twice a week to keep them healthy.

THE BODY

We are not meant to sit in front of our computer for 8 hours a day. So to get back to basics and make up for the lack of exercise that our lives impose on us, we have to move, prefer walking or pedalling rather than taking the subway, even if only for a few stations, and practice physical activity at least 2 to 3 hours a week. \"94a695c325fd69dd0ee9400aea80361c\"

Noted that outdoor walks allow us to reconnect with nature and breathe. 

THE SPIRIT

Walks in the countryside, by the sea, in the mountains, allow you to escape and heal your mind. Contact with nature, whether through walks, outdoor sports, gardening are very beneficial to calm the mind. By removing sources of stress and allowing yourself these moments of rest, you are moving away from the causes of aging in your body.

Adding some meditative practices to our lives, on a daily basis, can only be beneficial... It may be following guided meditation sessions, practicing mindfulness, meditating alone or accompanying, but it may also and already take time for a pleasant hobby that will allow the mind to disconnect, such as taking a long bath, tinkering, gardening... 

\"24b34482e481a6384a7a463ff282821d\"

 

Anyway, take care of yourself and listen to yourself! Connecting to your feelings and desires is one of the best ways to stay in shape as long as possible.

 

“Conscious eating can make us aware of our own actions, thoughts, feelings and motivations”…  Thierry Hergueta is sociologist and one of the great French specialists in mindfulness.. He explains to us the method to eat in full consciousness and how to take the time to observe and enjoy the meal, while slowing down the pace. Mindfulness is really interesting for pleasure as well as for health. So, Parisian! 


\"Eating

Sophie: What does it mean for you eating well ?

Eating well means taking your time, it means being in a pleasant environment. Eating well is often the quality of the presentation, it is a certain refinement. Eating well also means having personal addresses, \"canteens\" where you always go and where you have habits: find a certain standard, a service, etc. Eating well is also eating well at home and in Paris by going to the markets to do your shopping, because eating well is thinking about making yourself eat not necessarily always in restaurants! And in Paris you can find quality products from all countries so you can eat well in Paris.

\"SansSophie: But… Many people eat quickly without realizing all this...

Yes… A beautiful plate allows you to use all your senses during a tasting, smell, sight, taste, touch with the texture on your tongue... how do you appreciate all this? 

Mindfulness eating ! It\'s full consciousness, it\'s tasting a dish in full consciousness. In fact, mindfulness and taking the time to feel things. And it is with the five senses that this is done. This requires a certain focus, which I will talk about later.

Sophie: So how do you eat \"in full consciousness 

In front of the plate, we will first contact the feeling of hunger again and simply wait until we are hungry to eat. You can start by drinking a big glass of water, perhaps because you are thirsty, but also because you often confuse thirst with hunger. And then take the opportunity to make a small \"indoor weather\" point: what is the emotion that takes over? Before you satisfy him by rushing to his meal! Come on, it\'s time to start cooking!

With the ladle in hand, you will assess how much food you think you need to reach satiety and slide the serving onto a plate. The idea is to eat less and enjoy more. Because know it, it is the first bite of a dish that gives you the most pleasure.

Sophie: But can we do this mindfulness all the time?\"mindful-eating-2048x800\"

No of course, for example at a business lunch we should be focused on the discussion and not on the plate. So we don\'t have this availability to focus on tasting, pleasure, impressions and emotions. Personally when I am focused on the conversation of a business meeting it can happen to me that at the end of the meal I don\'t remember what I ate because my attention is on the content of the conversation and not on my plate. But we will also forget everything around the plate, the atmosphere of the restaurant, the smells, the lighting, etc. That\'s what it means to be focused on something. 

Sophie: So … can you tell us about the method to adopt to be fully consciousness in front of the plate?

It starts when you arrive at the restaurant and observe the setting. In recent years all the restaurants in Paris have been redone, so you have to observe the decoration, appreciate and judge and that is already a starter, it is the beginning of concentration. Then you have to smell the smell of the place, often there are artificial candles or an ambient perfume but not necessarily, so you have to concentrate on the smell of the place, if it smells like meat, if it smells like fish, herbs, wood... Then, you must also observe the space, the place where you will settle down, look at the seat and choose your body position to be comfortably seated while respecting the rules of good living and the rules of life in society. Then we also observe the noise, many restaurants have background music that can divert attention away from the focus. We observe the light which is very important, dimmed or strong. In fact, you have to concentrate so you don\'t get distracted.

 Sophie: You told me before that the body posture is very important why ?

Poorly seated, you can distract yourself from the focus by a position that you will change after a few minutes... Then it is to know how to look at the map to observe it to read it completely or to read it in large part before deciding to be able to make evaluations our desires. 

\"boire-vin-femme\"Sophie: Once installed properly, what should be done?

It is time to look at the menu, the titles of the dishes (today there is a lot of effort made on the name of the dishes, it is more sought after we try to create emotions with the descriptions! We no longer call a steak frites, steak frites but we will say for example \"meat from the butcher on his bed of vegetables\". So, the first step to take once you get settled in is to taste the menu to create emotions and desires, it\'s always very interesting. I love watching the cards read and immerse myself in the menu. 

Sophie: Some menus are very appetizing, you want to eat everything and sometimes the choice is extremely Limited or the name of the  dishes is not very interesting ! 

YES… The important question at this stage is to balance the meal and ask yourself the question \"am I hungry\", \"do I want to eat a main course, or a small starter and dessert\", \"want originality or dishes already appreciated\". So try to assess your desire and appetite in relation to the card. The question is really \"what I want right now\". \"Do I want something light or do I want to make a real hearty meal because I didn\'t have lunch at lunch? All these questions we ask ourselves that are part of mindfulness. In fact, being very close to your real desires and connecting with yourself. 

Sophie: Maybe mindfulness begin when you choose a restaurant ?

Yes, the initial question would be \"where do I want to go to dinner tonight\", \"what do I want to eat tonight, a restaurant not too noisy because I\'m tired, a more intimate restaurant, or on the contrary, I\'ve been locked up all day in my office tonight I want to see the life of the people who are happy who eat and drink, I want to be surrounded, I go to a noisier place or there is more animation\".... \"I want to be on the terrace where I want to be inside\"... \"a restaurant I\'m not going to eat meat or discover a new chef.\" All these questions make one responsible for one\'s choice and open the desire and awakening, it is already a beginning of full consciousness.

Sophie: Okay, let\'s go back to the menu, what do we do? 

So we choose the dishes according to our real desires. And then comes the choice of wines \"do I want to drink wine or not, I want white or red, water, tea...\". In fact, things must not be reflexes, we must ask ourselves questions and satisfy with the most precision the desires with the choices.

Sophie: So when does the plate arrive, what should we do?

When the plate already arrives, we stop talking and observe. 

Sophie: Hard to remember doing all this! 

Distraction is the most difficult because when the food arrives we are in the middle of a conversation so it is difficult to pick up and concentrate on the plate! 

Sophie: So going back to our plate  it arrives it is in front of our eyes what should we do?

We make a stop by saying \"I intend to observe my plate so stop\". We stop talking, we stop listening, we stop laughing, we stop looking at the restaurant, we focus on the plate and a STOP !

STOP is a simple and easy method to use tool to fight against attitudes and reactions in self-pilot.

S = Stop, allow yourself not to react immediately and rather to think, at least for a few seconds

T = Turn your attention to your breathing, at least for the time of inhalation and exhalation

O = Observe your experience: notice your body sensations, thoughts and emotions; it is at this moment that we will use the five senses in front of the plate. 

P = Proceed or not. It means continuing to eat with great care, observing the different textures, the colors of the plate, the tastes, etc.: \"Do I continue on this line or do I resume my conversation\"... the poor plate is forgotten and we are no longer in full consciousness.  \"To continue\" can also mean \"I want to be in full consciousness all the time during my tasting to identify the ingredients, the aromas, the herbs and all the nuances that are on my plate\". 

Sophie: But should we inform the person we are dining with about our focus?

We can also share mindfulness with the other by asking the question \"what do you think about your meal\" in order to share the focus. 

Anyway, it\'s good to give a sign to the other person to make him understand that you need a little time for your tasting focus, it can be a short sentence so that the person understands what\'s going to happen and that he too can be invited to appreciate his plate in the same way it can be a way to initiate him. 

Sophie: ok, let\'s go back to our plate...

So you have to look at the colors, the presentation, when it comes to a soup there is always a smell so you have to smell (even if it is at a distance and do it discreetly). There are also the textures that are incredible. Many chefs enjoy working on the textures they put on the plate! So in concentration and mindfulness it is also necessary to observe the different materials and textures of food visually but also under the tongue. It\'s fun to do, by the way! 

And when you start to observe all this.... it\'s really interesting because you can think of the cooks, the chefs who before starting to cook the dish, he thought of all these details of texture and taste that go together. Besides the respect for the chef\'s work, it\'s incredibly interesting. At this stage we reach the tasting of tastes, those that are obvious and others that are more subtle and hidden. It is sometimes by crunching a food on the plate that you discover a hidden flavor. Tasting a plate is a very interesting job to do as if it were a great wine.

Sophie: And how do young people react to all this?

For a certain generation it is a difficult focus work but I am struck by the young people. I have two children who are between 20 and 30 years old it\'s amazing how interested they are in food and ingredients, recipes, etc... they are more interested in quality and their pleasure, they do competitions between young people they meet each other at each other\'s homes to cook they like it. And then the notion of health is also fundamental for them, they attach importance to the quality/health duo.

Sophie: What if … during the day, we have a little craving for a snack?\"mindful-eating\"

The question is, \"what are you hungry for?\" Does my body need energy to continue my work day? Do I have a \"morale blow\", do I want a chocolate cake, candy... In short, to be comforted? Or, am I really hungry? And if so, then listen to yourself and force yourself to sit down and eat it slowly and enjoy it. 

Sophie: Any last advice about \"eating in full consciousness ?

Have lunch in peace! No radio, no TV, no computer, no newspapers. Once in a while, at home, or on a bench, in a park, have lunch alone as if you had an appointment with yourself, listening to your feelings. You will be able to take the time to look, smell and enjoy your meal and above all, to slow down your pace. Take the time to chew and place your cutlery between each bite.

To resume: I eat in Full consciousness when I do my best to:

•Be fully present at my meal.

•Focus on food by observing colors, smells, tastes &texture.

•Listen to all my body sensations. 

•Be attentive to my mind: what are the thoughts that cross my mind?  

•Watch out for distractions: reply to an email, turn on the TV, watch Instagram....

•Be aware that my emotions play an important role in my diet. What does it mean to \"have a noted stomach\" or to feel iris table cravings to snack endlessly and endlessly

•Be vigilant on food choices that will respect my health, my pleasure and whose ecological foot print will be lighter: favor products of plant, local and seasonal origin.

•Be grateful to nature and all those who made this meal possible, from gardener to cook!

 

A cult brand in France, much-loved by green addicts worldwide, in the last twenty years Nuxe has been synonymous with nature and luxury. Aliza Jabès, the brand founder transformed the traditional laboratory in the heart of Paris into an eco-empire spread over 50 countries. Nuxe has its own story to tell. That of an aspiration, driven by intuition. A fundamental need nurtured and followed by its founder.  

The usual bad mood at the change of season? A little mental fatigue? Excessive nervousness from stress? But instead of running to lie down on the psychoanalyst's couch, rush to the nearest analysis laboratory holding a beautiful specimen of urine… Once you find a deficiency of one or more neurotransmitters, it's possible to intervene with the right foods to recreate a state of equilibrium…

Everyone has the flagship recommendation of the national health nutrition program in mind: "eat at least 5 fruits and vegetables a day". But speaking of fruits, what is the best way to consume them: as juice or the fruit itself?

Ma perché allora vediamo così spesso delle parigine sulle terrazze dei caffè, davanti a un bicchiere di acqua Perrier guarnito da una rondella di limone, o andare in ufficio con una bottiglia di acqua minerale che spunta dall’it-bag? E poi a casa, è tutto in trionfo di tisane e di tè, detox e no…


Chi meglio della mia amica Émilie può parlarci dell’acqua e delle parigine? Lei, che è cresciuta in Provenza, tra una nonna creatrice di profumi e una madre naturopata. È diventata parigina da quando è arrivata nella capitale per studiare giornalismo medico: è qui che ha scoperto un universo stressante ma eccitante, segnato spesso, però, da un’assenza dell’elemento “natura”. Ha iniziato a divulgare, nella cerchia degli amici e fra i suoi lettori, dei segreti sulla salute, partendo dall’idea che il nostro corpo è una delle migliori risorse che abbiamo, perciò bisogna coccolarlo e pensare a lui…

\"young-woman-enjoying-a-cup-of-coffee-in-the-morning\"“Ma sì, l’acqua è così importante, perché senz’acqua non c’è vita, e la nostra vita sboccia nell’acqua… nel grembo materno. Il nostro corpo contiene circa il 60% di acqua, acqua che svolge tanti compiti. Trasporta i globuli bianchi e quelli rossi, e costituisce l’anima delle nostre cellule, ci consente di depurare l’organismo, eliminando le tossine attraverso le urine, ecc. …

Quindi, abbiamo il compito di rinnovare quest’acqua così importante per il nostro corpo  e questo le parigine lo sanno bene! Bisogna berne almeno 1 litro e mezzo al giorno. L’acqua non fa dimagrire, se fosse così, si saprebbe in giro! Ma, favorendo l’idratazione cutanea, ci regala un colorito sano.

Se la sfida è di bere 1 litro e mezzo al giorno di acqua, ecco allora come potete fare: 1 bicchiere contiene circa 20-25 cl, quindi un bicchiere sano appena vi alzate, prima di far colazione, poi 1 tazza di tè o di caffè alla colazione del mattino, e già arriviamo a 40-50 cl, un bicchiere durante la mattinata, e un altro bicchiere prima di pranzo – con questo trucchetto si riduce anche l’appetito (!) – un altro bicchiere d’acqua  nel pomeriggio e un bicchiere prima di cena. Ecco fatto!\"water-glas1\"

D’estate, quando fa caldo e si suda, l’ideale è bere acque minerali, come le acque gassate, così possiamo recuperare i minerali che abbiamo perduto con il sudore. E poi, il bicchierone d’acqua appena sveglie, prima di colazione, favorisce le funzioni intestinali, senza prendere medicine. Ma sì, le parigine non soffrono di costipazione!». Émilie

Staying “young” is the aim that most people want to achieve, and plastic surgery and invasive cosmetic techniques are the “remedies” used more and more often to contrast the ageing of our bodies. But are they really the only solution? Can we consider natural medicines and the holistic vision of the way we eat a more effective and healthy alternative? Dr Hervé Grosgogeat, the internationally acclaimed Parisian nutritionist answers these questions, offering us all the information we need to improve our diet and our lifestyle in order to prevent age-related disease, to obtain a more youthful face and body and a general condition of health and wellbeing…


Slowing down ageing, losing weight and keeping it off, fighting modern illnesses

\"antiage-p1\"Hervé Grosgogeat has conceived an anti-inflammatory nutritional programme. This new way of eating is based on the fight against the main accelerator of ageing, illness and weight gain: silent inflammation. More than a weight-loss diet, the aim is to feel and look younger, thanks to the benefits of anti-age nutrition and a programme to adopt as part of our lives. This is what he reveals in his book: Anti-Ageing Promise 

What is the philosophy of your anti-ageing promise?

“It rests on integrated medicine and its approach to illness, focused on the person, lifestyle and the environment. We are currently witnessing the fast growth of chronic illnesses\"antiage-p5\" and problems linked to stress. These illnesses, called “civilisation” all have a direct link with diet and with silent inflammation. The origin of inflammatory illnesses is linked to our diet and to our lifestyle. As the causes are multi-factorial, integrated medicine is the best treatment for the inflammatory illnesses of civilisation. A completely natural approach to health-related prevention and anti-ageing”.

What are the benefits of this anti-ageing programme?

“It is ultra-preventative and it reduces silent inflammation very quickly, also causing weight loss, relieving pain and promoting inner and outer youth. The strengthening of the immune system, longer life, a sensation of wellbeing, serenity, improved emotional balance, better quality of sleep, a more youthful body and skin. As time goes by, the control of the mediators, of the inflammation allows the reduction of numerous symptoms of chronic illnesses. Given that silent inflammation depends on the hormonal balance, the other key element of this programme is to help re-establish the balance between pro-inflammatory hormones and anti-inflammatory ones”.

\"antiage-p4\"

Are you talking about a new aesthetic approach that comes from the inside?

We live in a society in which youth, more than anything else, is considered as the most precious asset. We know that no cosmetic surgery and not even the most effective anti-wrinkle cream can make us feel younger or healthier. The secret to a long, healthy life lies inside our body. I call this new approach of medicine that acts on the origin of ageing “inner cosmetic surgery”.

What can we do to extend life and improve its quality?

\"imgres\"The reduction of chronic inflammation is based on the choice of a new anti-ageing lifestyle which consists in: moderating the consumption of industrial foods; considerably reducing the consumption of “bad” fats; recharging our batteries with protective foods and nutrients; keeping the body health with regular physical exercise that is suitable for the anti-inflammatory solution; respecting the sleep cycle; reducing excitants; reflecting on your family or professional organisation; managing stress by concentrating on breathing and relaxing; keeping your weight under control; reducing exposure to the sum and pollution; prioritising better emotional communication between body, mind and environment. To simplify, if we want to reduce the risks of developing an illness linked with ageing, slowing down the ageing process, we have to learn to dominate inflammation”. 

Can you tell us some of the rules of your method?

There are more than 20 rules. To begin with: most meals have to be made up of brightly coloured foods; do not skip meals. Eat three meals a day at quite precise times; \"photo10\"avoid saturation fats; prefer lean meat; increase the consumption of fibre; drink tea, preferably green; drink freshly made fruit juices; drink a litre and a half of water a day, which is about 8 to 10 glasses; avoid refined foods like white flour and sugar; prefer wholemeal bread and avoid bread containing chemical yeast; if you can’t live without sugar, use natural substitutes at all costs; stop smoking; get out of town to breathe some fresh air (woods, the seaside, etc.); avoid the use of products containing phthalates and parabens; replace white rice with brown, basmati or Thai rice, which has a lower glycaemic index; stop eating sweets, industrial snacks and fruit drinks containing sugar; don’t forget to exercise for at least 30 minutes every day; snack happily on raw foods: celery, carrots, apples and pears, etc.”

The discovery of silent inflammation is part of the great scientific findings of recent years in relation to anti-ageing and obesity. Dr Hervé Grosgogeat is one of the first persons to explain the causes and consequences so simply and accessible to everyone in “Ma promesse anti-âge”. Published by Odile Jacob

L’erba medica coltivata o “alfalfa” (in francese “luzerne” o alfalfa), “regina delle piante” foraggere, chiamata anche “trifoglio grande” o “fieno d’Ungheria” (in francese “fieno di Borgogna”), è una pianta erbacea foraggera molto ricca di proteine, vitamine e sali minerali…

A well-informed Parisienne is a healthy Parisienne! What are we supposed to be eating these day? What’s actually good for you? What’s not? Trying to decide from women’s magazines can drive you crazy. And scientific magazines aren’t exactly crystal clear either. The Mediterranean diet? High-protein diet? Fat, no fat, low-fat? Sugar, sugar free, sugar substitute? What a headache…

We, Parisian girls looove the spa. In Paris, it is talked about everywhere, girlfriends give each other addresses, a new place opens every week! But when we've never set foot in a spa, we wonder how to do. And French’s are crazy about etiquette… so relax ok, but stress an hour before for fear of looking like a loser, no way. A short guide to good manners could certainly be useful.

Si parla spesso dei capelli delle parigine e del modo di portarli pettinati-spettinati, una vera arte! Ma prima di ottenere questo effetto, c’è tutto un lavoro di cura che riguarda la pelle o i capelli: la parigina, la cura ce l’ha proprio nel suo dna. I nostri capelli sono spesso il barometro del nostro benessere. Allora, ecco come ottenere una capigliatura stupenda!

The way you act on the mountain can seriously affect how much fun you and those around you are having. There are many good and bad ways to ski that have nothing to do with your ability. So in the interest of keeping the mountain mellow through these last weeks of the season here are my top tips for good ski etiquette.


 

\"2017-lp-ski-ladies-pants\"

 

1. The lifts queues

The concept of the lifts are simple, join the back of the queue move forward in a timely and organized fashion, get on the lift when it is your turn, that’s really all there is to the ‘do’ section, so here are some of the most annoying don’ts for you;

• Don’t cut the queue, weaving and snaking past people is rude, don’t do it.

• Don’t crash into other people equipment, you might be on cheap ass rental skis but some of us aren’t, using the back of my snowboard as a crash mat is not ok, neither is walking your skis over the front of my skis or randomly stabbing your poles down onto my kit. No, just no, keep a respectful distance.

• Don’t wait for your friends, there’s 8 of you and you all absolutely have to get on the same chair together so you’ll block the queue and let three chairs go up half empty whilst you wait for your buddies to all catch up. No. Get on the lift when you get to the barrier meet your friends at the top. Always fill up the chairs.

• Don’t try to change lanes, its like driving, that side of the queue may look like its moving faster than you but its really not and you turning sideways and trying to walk your skis across 6 lanes of traffic does not help. We’re all moving at the same speed, face forward and when it’s your turn to move forward, move forward. Simple.

2. Respect the mountain

• Take only photos leave only ski tracks, don’t be the person peeing on the side of the piste, dropping litter and cigarette butts off chair lifts, picnicking on the mountain and leaving beer bottles and sandwich wrappers in the snow. 

• Clean up after yourselves and respect the environment that we come to play in but others live in year round.

3. Control your speed

Being able to ski or board is being in control at all times, being able to turn as and when you need to and being able to stop quickly and safely if necessary. You need to be able to react safely if some one appears out of nowhere or falls suddenly in front of you or if you catch an edge or hit a patch of ice or rock. If you are out of control and you cant stop yourself you’re going to do serious damage to yourself and others.

4. Respect the down hill skier

You don’t have eyes in the back of your head so the rule is; You look out for the skiers in front of you and the skiers behind you look out for you (be aware that for boarders their blind spot is not directly behind their board but behind their back shoulder). 

• That means that you don’t cut people up, 

• You don’t steal other people lines, 

• You don’t nip in front of people who are lining up to hit a jump or a rail, you can over take sure, but you do it respectfully and at a safe distance.

\"PRINCIPIANTI\"5. You were once a beginner too

I know beginners can be irritating when they’re on runs they can’t handle or they’re snow plowing down the middle of your favorite run or making erratic turning decisions so you can’t over take them safely. 

Show some respect its damn hard work learning to snowboard so give beginners plenty of space, try not to tut as you pass and if they fall hard perhaps check they’re ok before whizzing on about your day. 

Also avoid beginner boarders on chairlifts, they will fall over they will take you down with them, you have more control so just stay out of the way.

6. Stop safely and in full view

Some times you need a rest, sometimes you stop for a chat, sometimes you haven’t got a clue where you are and you need to get out your map. 

What ever the reason it’s fine but you have got to be aware of your surroundings and you’ve got to stop in a safe place.

People are coming flying down the pistes at pace and they do not want to cruise round a hairpin to find a gaggle of skiers having a chat in the middle of the piste, they don’t want to jump off a sweet roller to find a boarder chilling just under the lip. Always stop out of the way at the side of the piste and always stop where you can be clearly seen by approaching skiers. If you fall in a dangerous place, get up fast and out of the way.

7. Diversity is good 

How often have you heard or indeed said yourself “stupid skiers always in the way” or “Damn boarders completely out of control”.

Skiers and snowboarders move in different ways on the mountain and this can lead to collisions and chaos as they try to avoid each other. It’s not intentional and the easiest way to figure out what the other is going to do is just to watch them in action, watch them and you’ll see the pattern of turns they make and how to avoid them in future.

Boarders are not all rude and out of control, skiers are not all stuck up and out to get you but you’ve got to make allowances for each other. 

For example : Flat bits. The flats hold absolutely no issues for skiers as they pole peacefully along, but for the boarder who is trying to get up enough speed to make it across the flat without having to walk, whilst dodging other people and trying not to catch an edge and be catapulted onto their face, flats can be really quite tense places. 

So please skiers have some consideration and awareness, stay straight on the flats to the side if possible, move forward logically don’t turn sideways or make erratic turns or snow plows that force boarders to try and dodge you at high speed.

In return, boarders can we refrain from cursing skiers as we pass them? Yes they just cut you up and you lost speed and now you have to un-strap and walk the rest of the flat, that sucks, but the skier (most of the time) didn’t know any better, keep your profanity to yourself.

Also skiers, is it really necessary to gesture at far off peaks with the entire length of your arm and ski pole? No, you’re going to decapitate some one, keep your poles to your self.

And boarders, we know you have to sit down to strap in off every chair lift but do you have to do it right in the way of everybody coming off the lift? No you don’t, you can move to the side out of the way. Same goes for when you sit down on piste, do so out of the way in a safe and obvious spot please.

We’re all here for the same reason, to enjoy these mountains, this snow and these sports so lets engage our common sense and sense of camaraderie out there and try and help each other have as much fun as possible.

The Parisian man is a contradiction. He’s drawn to the “nice girl” type, but he’s also attracted to the sexy fox. So how do we strike the right balance between demure and provocative? It’s better to be innocently suggestive than openly ‘come hither”.  We need to look delicate and fresh, not plastered in makeup. In Paris, a woman’s face is fundamental when you first meet. A man’s gaze goes first to your eyes, then to your mouth and your smile. Your boobs actually come last. The first step in enticing a guy the Parisian way, is to have the right reflexes before your mirror. Here’s a quick guide.

The chignon is one of the classic hairdos. It’s smart for all occasions, a cocktail party, the next wedding or simply, as a smart solution, to show off your doll’s face and accessorize it with long earrings. The chignon bun is still “the” Parisian hairstyle of the moment: it’s feminine, fun, classic and so simple to do! Moreover, it’s sexy and men love it… For a relaxed-messy look or the sophisticated red carpet version, in Paris, nobody can resist it! Learn how to create this sophisticated style right here …


\"112\"Buy a foam volume-creating pad with a hole in the middle like a donut. Detail of elegance: choose the donut color as close as possible that of your hair and adapted to the length, thin if semi-long, thicker if long…

Make a low ponytail for the classic look of a prima ballerina or on top of your head for the trendy Kim Kardashian look.

Pass the ponytail inside the donut (see the drawing). Bring forward and arrange use your fingers to cover the pad with your hair.

Roll your hair around the volume-creating pad wedging it underneath and attach with pins stuck in the foam. Fundamental: the pad should never be visible. Elegance looks natural.

Good evening, Catherine

Chi l’avrebbe creduto? Eh, sì… il succo di verdure e di frutta “estratto” a freddo (cioè estratto lentamente senza il calore creato dalla velocità di una centrifuga o di un classico spremifrutta elettrico) è diventato il nuovo antipasto vitaminizzato delle parigine nei locali di moda…

Is there a link between food and stress? Yes, it works both ways. What we eat affects our mood, depending on whether we allow ourselves the food we like. And our emotions impact our diet: they suppress our appetite or, conversely, cause us to indulge. Food is a quick fix for relieving tension…

French women take their skincare very seriously. It’s part of our culture, we know beauty and know skincare… so we make it look easy and natural. This is the secret of the Parisian style, effortless clean beauty. The “Je ne sais quoi” beauty of a French girl. But the starting point is: we find a skin care routine that works and stick to each of us. In France, “clean beauty” is a global trend because women are starting to understand that “dirty” chemicals may cause allergies, or skin diseases. Let’s have a look at our skincare routine. 

Why are Parisians so often seen sitting on a café terrace with a glass of Perrier and a slice of lemon, or going to the office with a big bottle of spring water sticking out of their bag? And at home, infusions and teas, whether or not for detox, feature prominently!

FRENCH PUMPKIN SOUP

This beautifully colored soup is a tradition in France. I got the recipes from my grandma’ Madeleine that used to prepare it for her grandchildren in winter time. Many thanks to her. It is very low in cholesterol and sodium, it is also a good source of vitamin E, vitamin B6, folate, iron, magnesium and phosphorus. Also a very good source of dietary fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, potassium, copper and manganese... Serve hot as a light and creamy first course.

The paradox of the Frenchwoman is that she’s gourmand. Although she likes fine cuisine, she also knows how to get back to a normal diet. Therefore, a good feast one evening and back to a balanced diet with lighter meals the next day. The holidays provide a good example. Like everyone, we put on 2 kg but are quickly able to resume our good habits and keep our mythical figure (well, not always). Whatever the case, don’t lose your good habits and eat at least five fruits and vegetables every day…

Boil mineral water for 10 minutes with sugar, add the Chinese green gunpowder tea, allow to boil for 2 minutes, then add a bouquet of mint. Remove from the flame and allow to seep for 5 minutes. Drink with pine nuts.

Green bell peppers are the most common color on produce shelves, but the yellow variety contains much more of certain vitamins. Do you know that eating red peppers can increase libido and build collagen? The peppers also contain fiber, protein and iron. They are very versatile, let have a look to our novembre detox pepper aperitif soup to serv with fresh raw vegetables…

Christophe de Jaeger famous French Doctor has developed a unique method combining diagnosis and action in order to preserve one’s health capital age well, and stay in good health as long as possible… Nutrition is one of his numerous tools, look at his after feats recommendation : “Firstly, opt for raw foods. This will allow your pancreas to fully recover, clean itself and lower inflammation. Consume uncooked foods three meals a day”....

Il gusto e le varietà che caratterizzano il formaggio, e gli effetti benefici che apporta alla salute ne fanno un prodotto di punta a Parigi e in tutta la Francia, il 62% dei francesi ne consumano quotidianamente (con 24 kg di formaggi consumati all’anno e pro capite, i Francesi sono tra maggiori “mangiatori” di formaggio al mondo)! Vediamo il parère del medico…

Valérie Espinasse è la coach sia delle attrici di grido, che dei personaggi televisivi, che degli sportivi di alto livello, ma segue anche persone non necessariamente famose. Tutti la consultano per la sua professionalità, la sua cordialità e l’entusiasmo con cui trasmette le proprie convinzioni. Ecco che Valérie ci spiega come mangiare la frutta al meglio.

Le verdure si trovano ovunque, sotto forma di succhi, di gratin, di cocktail e, naturalmente, nel piatto. Da alcuni anni, una fra le grandi novità della cucina è l’arrivo in pompa magna delle verdure, in veste di protagoniste del menu e non come “semplice accompagnamento”. Come succede nel campo della moda, l’accessorio è diventato quasi il capo principale del look. La parigina si sente responsabile del proprio universo e cerca di rispettare le stagioni della natura quando si tratta di quello che va a mangiare. A giocare un ruolo di primo piano nella cucina “legumière” (di verdure), nonché vero “cocco” delle parigine, troviamo Alain Passard. Uno dei mitici chef della Guida Michelin, che dal 1997 gli tributa tre stelle.
La fama che si è creato Passard nasce dal modo straordinariamente artistico con cui lavora le materie prime, che lo porta a progettare i suoi menu in base alle stagioni e ai suoi “giardini-orti” situati in tre diverse regioni climatiche della Francia.

Se non va di corsa, la parigina cerca di iniziare la giornata con una prima colazione “piacere”, preparata a regola d’arte. È così divertente e soprattutto salutare iniziare la giornata con una prima colazione equilibrata… Se appartenete alle persone che vanno al lavoro senza fare colazione, è forse arrivato il momento di cambiare questa cattiva abitudine e di fare anche voi, della prima colazione, un momento glamour e salutista.

Per i golosoni che vogliono controllare il proprio desiderio insaziabile di cioccolato e di bonbon, Arnaud Cocaul, medico e nutrizionista parigino, ci dà qualche consiglio: infatti, a suo parere, «il cioccolato fa benissimo, è un alimento meraviglioso perché ricco di magnesio e di vari minerali»; «Un patito dei bonbon non è come uno che mangia bonbon industriali, il primo apprezzerà i sapori, l’altro, lo zucchero»…

I prodotti alimentari sono talmente numerosi che si dovrebbe passare un’infinità di tempo per decodificare la confezione, al fine di capire la loro composizione. Allora, secondo le statistiche, ci mettiamo non più di 30 secondi per scegliere un prodotto! Nessuna meraviglia allora che ci lasciamo trarre in inganno: il leggere attentamente l’elenco degli ingredienti sulla confezione ci rende più responsabili e ci consente di essere più informati  sul prodotto e sui suoi effetti sulla nostra salute…

As of late, vegetarian dishes have been increasingly the center of attention, as people seek to eat more healthily. Rich in quality protein and vitamin B, tofu is one of the Parisienne’s favorite food products for occasionally replacing meat. It’s good, contains lots of calcium and is very easy to digest.

Biba  è un pubblicazione il cui successo deriva dal suo modo di raccontare la donna in ogni aspetto della vita quotidiana, guidandola alla scoperta delle ultime tendenze. Va fiera del proprio stile indipendente ed è in grado di passare dagli argomenti più leggeri a quelli seri, sempre senza presunzione. Proprio come una parigina! Le parigine, spesso, devono perdere 2 o 3 chili: hanno mangiato troppo durante le Feste, si sono lasciate andare durante l’inverno, sono stressate o si sono dimenticate di fare sport. Mettersi a dieta non è facile, anche per una parigina, in quanto è sinonimo di volontà. Ma la cosa più difficile è di restare impassibili davanti ai commenti e alle riflessioni dell’entourage, ossia delle persone che ci circondano. Ecco cosa ci consiglia Judith Pardo della rivista Biba…

Ma che significa tutto questo? Quando leggiamo le riviste femminili, c’è da diventare matte! Le riviste scientifiche, ancora peggio. La dieta mediterranea, quella a base di proteine, quella con i grassi o quella senza grassi, quella a base di carboidrati, e poi zucchero o dolcificanti… Mal di testa assicurato. Bene, allora cercherò di fare chiarezza su tutte queste cose in funzione dei dati attuali, perché ci sono cambiamenti continui!

Is there a link between food and stress? Yes, it works both ways. What we eat affects our mood, depending on whether we allow ourselves the food we like. And our emotions impact our diet: they suppress our appetite or, conversely, cause us to indulge. Food is a quick fix for relieving tension…

Mangiare bene non vuol dire stare a dieta, ma mangiare prodotti del territorio, prodotti bio se possibile, soprattutto se andiamo a parlare di frutta e verdura. Mangiare bene significa avere sotto gli occhi le porzioni giuste, dato che in genere tendiamo a fare delle porzioni “sproporzionate”…

Invece di mangiare meccanicamente, imparate a farlo “in tutta coscienza”. Il concetto è di mangiare di meno e di assaporare di più. Sentiamo sempre più spesso parlare di mangiare “in tutta coscienza”. Ma cosa vuol dire questo, alla fin fine?  Lo sapete bene, fare le cose “in tutta coscienza” significa partecipare appieno a ciò che facciamo, per guadagnare piacere e digerire meglio. Ma come possiamo fare?...

“La parigina ha la fortuna di poter beneficiare da una quarantina d’anni dell’evolversi del ristorante parigino. Che sia il bistrot, il ristorante gastronomico o il piatto del giorno. A Parigi, c’è stata un’evoluzione straordinaria della cucina: qui il gusto è stato semplificato nel senso buono del termine: come risultato, abbiamo ottenuto un prodotto puro, ma sempre meno sofisticato e sempre più povero di materie grasse…

Valérie Espinasse è la coach sia delle attrici di grido, che dei personaggi televisivi, che degli sportivi di alto livello, ma segue anche persone non necessariamente famose. Ecco che ci spiega cosa vuol dire mangiare bene. “Vuol dire mangiare in modo da sentirmi in buona salute. La cosa prioritaria è la salute. Il che non esclude il piacere, il fatto di mettermi ai fornelli. Non è un qualcosa di restrittivo, né di triste, mangio bene, ma la mia alimentazione deve fare in modo che io stia in buona salute”…

My friend Anne Lipscomb loves Paris and comes once a year for her pleasure but she also realised wonderful videos about the parisian woman, her art of life and her style. « I treasured the vibrant art and the cultural life of Paris, its fabulous food and café culture, and the beauty of its architecture and parks ». I would like to present you Anne and her last video « French women don’t get fat and now I don’t either. Or French Women Don’t Get Fat and Now I Don’t Either»…

Christophe de Jaeger, famous gériatre et gerontologist has developed a unique method combining diagnosis and action in order to preserve one’s health capital age well, and stay in good health as long as possible… “It is now possible to oppose the fatalism of aging and its stigmas: decreased energy, insomnia, weight gain, memory problems”....

My friend Anne Lipscomb is a former award-winning public relations manager who developed multiple chemical sensitivity in 1993. She became one of only a handful of people in the state of Washington to receive workers’ compensation for illness related to sick-building syndrome. “When I could finally contemplate a vacation abroad, after 14 years of being forced to live housebound, visiting Paris quickly rose to the top of my wish list”...

Parsley is a natural diuretic and detoxifier. It acts on the liver. If you have a centrifuge, don’t fail to add it to all of your vegetable juices. With its very good balance in Vitamin E and polyunsaturated fatty acids, avocado protects its fatty acids from oxidation. It protects against cell ageing.
