Health insurance is generally considered one of the least affordable of all the types of insurance that the average America is expected to purchase. In fact, approximately 17% of all Florida residents can’t afford any health coverage at all.

Group health insurance is almost always less expensive than individual health care so if your employer or some organization that you belong to makes group health insurance available to you that may be your best bet.

If you have no insurance and you meet certain low-income requirements then your children 19 years of age and younger may qualify for the state of Florida’s KidCare Program. For more information on this state-sponsored program check out: http://www.floridakidcare.org/

Research has shown time and time again that eating small portions of dark chocolate may provide numerous health benefits as a result of chocolate’s antioxidant properties. However, a new study, performed by a team of scientists in Scotland and Italy, suggests that eating milk chocolate or even drinking milk with your chocolate, significantly reduces those health benefits.

Chocolate derives from the seeds of the cacao tree, a small evergreen bush cultivated throughout the tropics. Cacao’s botanical name is ‘Theobromo cacao’, meaning ‘food of the gods’. Chocolate is created from cocoa, the solids of the cacao bean, and cocoa butter, the natural fat of the cocoa bean. Dark chocolate is the purest form of cocoa without any milk additives.

First, some good news about the healing process. As an acne blemish heals, the inflamed area flattens, leaving behind a reddish spot. Though it may look like an acne scar it’s actually a macule - the final stage of an acne lesion. Macules may last for up to six months, but leave no permanent acne scar.

The same holds true for post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation, a darkening of the skin at the site of a healing acne lesion. Most prevalent in African-American, Asian and Latino populations, these spots can last up to 18 months - but may disappear more quickly if you stay out of the sun. Both macules and post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation are considered “pseudo-scarring” because they eventually disappear completely.
