I think it's difficult to eat somewhat Healthfully and still satisfy that need for a potato chip/salt/crunch craving. I've discovered Almond Nut Thins by Blue Diamond and they are really tasty. So as to acknowledge the current food label trends, I will inform you that they are Gluten and Wheat free. They are round crackers that have a great crunch and zip- depending on what flavor you choose. I like the Cheddar or Sea Salt. They have about six different flavors make a good , quick snack. The first two ingredients are Rice Flour and Almonds. Kudos to the creator of these. There's a little bit of protein in each serving, and they run 130 calories per serving. I'll warn you though, finishing a box is no problem. It's like Pirate's Booty. You can just forget about saving some for another day because they are so good you cannot stop.
Any Retin-A users out there? Actually the I last time I was at the Dermo he referred to it as Tretinoin. I don't know what to call it but you know what I mean. La Roche Posay is a French product line. I believe Face Products are their specialty. I recently used a generous sample of the Redermic cream. It looks and feels like a Retin A or Tretinoin. The packaging says it's for Accentuated wrinkles , irregular skin tone and pre-mature age spots . Fun Stuff, right?! Not. It has Retinol and Salycylic Acid in it which are proven exfoliators. They promote cell turn-over which in turn produces "new" skin. New skin doesn't have spots, wrinkles, etc. If you research those ingredients you may find that the process of chemical exfoliation also encourages Collagen production. Who doesn't want more Collagen? :) It's not a cheap product but I know from experience that La Roche Posay has a good reputation.
Peace, Niki
