307: Five Minute Friday: How To Spice Up Your Valentine's Day Weekend With Aphrodisiacs
Hi Beauties!
Can eating certain foods make you sexier? After listening in on this episode, you're going to be running to the grocery store this Valentine’s Day! On this Five-Minute Friday podcast, I talk about aphrodisiacs and the effect they have on you and how they may spice up your love life. What exactly are aphrodisiacs you may ask? Named after the Greek Goddess Aphrodite, aphrodisiacs, are foods that are said to boost your sexual desire. From oysters to avocados to chocolate covered strawberries, aphrodisiacs are said to have ‘feel good’ components that enhance bodily sensations while others simply resemble our more intimate body parts. Not only do these foods contribute to your sexual desires, but certain components in these foods, such as antioxidants in pomegranates, help keep your skin healthy too! So, don’t be afraid to indulge in these delicious aphrodisiacs this weekend because what better time to have some fun than Valentine’s weekend!

305: Five Minute Friday: Heart Disease in Women: Understanding Symptoms & Risk Factors
Hi Beauties!
Heart disease is often thought to be more of a problem for men. However, heart disease is the nation's number one leading killer of women, causing 1 in 3 deaths each year, with the two most common types of Heart Disease conditions being coronary heart disease and heart attacks. Because some heart disease symptoms differ from those in men, women often don't know what to look for; about half of all people in the U.S. (47%) have at least one risk factor. In this week's Five Minute Friday on Beauty Bytes: Secrets of a Plastic Surgeon, I discuss the symptoms and risk factors to reduce their risks and living a healthy lifestyle that can keep heart disease at bay. Tune in to hear the remaining symptoms and risk factors of heart disease and how to prevent them! Take the next step to providing structure to your body!

I 100% stand by adding my popular Simply Inulin powder and Internal Radiance Beauty Collagen to my juices because they keep me satiated until lunch. Over the course of the pandemic, I have lost 15 pounds while intermittent fasting! Can you believe it? Comment down below if you are currently on or wanting to try Intermittent Fasting.
