Why do the relatively poor native populations in Mexico and Africa have such low levels of the chronic diseases that plague the United States?

Why is the rate of seasonal affective disorder in Iceland--a country where dreary weather is the norm--so low?

Why is it that older women in Okinawa have such low breast cancer rates that it is not considered cost-effective for them to get screening mammograms?

The Jungle Effect has the life-changing answers to these important questions, and many more.

Whether it's the heart-healthy Cretan diet, with its reliance on olive oil and fresh vegetables, the antidepressive Icelandic diet and its extremely high levels of omega-3s, the age-defying Okinawa diet and its emphasis on vegetables and fish, or the other diets explored herein, everyone who reads this book will come away with the secrets of a longer, healthier life and the recipes necessary to put those secrets into action. The Jungle Effect is filled with inspiring stories from Dr. Miller's patients, quirky travel adventures, interviews with world-renowned food experts, delicious (yet authentic) indigenous recipes, and valuable diet secrets that will stick with you for a lifetime.

Sticky and unpleasant smelling
It’s thin and watery and leaves a sticky feeling on your skin that makes you want to wash your hands. It’s fragrance free but somehow has an unpleasant smell. The regular 365 brand fragrance free “moisturizing Lotion” that I normally buy when it’s available is MUCH better

Avene Hydrance LIGHT face lotion
This is a light face lotion which is smooth and penetrates the skin nicely. There is another product by the same company that looks exactly the same except it does not say LIGHT. I have that product too and for me, that is too heavy and lays on the skin - I feel like I have something on my face. This line is pricey but my dermatologist recommended this and overall I like the entire product line.

Perfectly Lightweight
I have very sensitive skin and tend to get oily in the summer, so I was looking for something lightweight and this delivered! It has a mild scent and feels great on my skin. It also keeps my skin moisturized without causing any irritation or breakouts.

Non greasy moisturiser for winter
Avene has been a well known brand all around Europe, Australia and Asia; easily accessible from most Chemists. We haven't tried their products before as I had the habit of picking skincare based on my friends' recommendations and Avene was not in their radar. From our last trip overseas, I decided to pick this up to try and immediately fell in love with it! It is non greasy yet very effective in dry months. Price point is also reasonable and I have re-ordered on Amazon since! Highly recommend it.
