I usually thumb through other people's copies of "Prevention", but have not chosen yet to subscribe to it myself.  It is not for lack of finding this magazine interesting, because I am constantly looking to find out more ways to improve the health of my family.  "Prevention," created by Rodale Press, which I have ordered a number of health-related books from, i...

I really do love Prevention Magazine and for so many reasons! First, they have nice brief bursts of information and because of that format, they are able to cover a wide range of topics in every issue. Second, they have a little bit of everything for anyone.  Third (and sometimes most important), the magazine dimensions are roughly the size of a paperback book, making it an awesome grab-an...

I have bought at least ten different work out video's and this one is my favorite.  The other video's went way to fast and I could never understand what they were doing.  I felt like I was running around in circles.  Prevention explains everything that you are doing.  It only takes 45 minutes to complete and it will work you the entire time.  The ...

I have been using Miracle Gro poducts for years and years in all my gardens and on my houseplants, and have always been happy with the results.

For some reason, crabgrass just thrives in my gardens!! So I went and got some, I found it...

All my efforts before to lose weight has gone futile. My weight loss program went astray after my vacation from the US. Oh, I am not blaming US for that. There are just plenty of sumptuous food to taste in the great US of A. I just can't say no to all those!So, when I cam back from my recent trip to US, I instantly prepared a line up of activities I would do to get myself back on track and ...

Prevention Magazine has been around for years, and with good reason.  I recently bought one of their DVDs, "Drop it in 30!" and absolutely love it!  The DVD consists of a warm up, a fat-blasting aerobic workout, a metabolism-boosting routine and a cool down.  During each workout, Prevention's contributing editor, Chris Freytag, leads a strong workout with a lot of p...

The best thing about this video is that it tells you what to do every day.  The DVD contains a lot of different little segments -- two 13-minute aerobics sessions, one 10-minute full-body strength training session, several 5-minute toning sessions focusing on specific body parts, and a warm up and cool down.What you do is select your goal -- losing weight, or being healthy or toning, etc -...

Band-Aid Isopropyl Alcohol has been my sanitizer and cleaning agent for more than 5 years. Before, I usually use it to clean my workstation particularly my keyboard and mouse and to sanitize my hand every morning upon arrival to work. I always have a bottle of alcohol in the office. Then I started bringing it on my bag wherever I go, to keep me clean. But sometimes, carrying the 150mL bottle is...

The First Years Close & Secure Sleeper sounded like a good idea when we where shopping for our new baby. It's basically a small rectangle bed with hard sides that lies on the parents’ bed. This way, the parents will not roll onto the baby at night and suffocate him/her. We thought it would be a wonderful thing to have, in fact, a must have. So we bought it and put our baby in it...

We buy this in a bottle containing 500 pieces of tablets @ 1,000mg each which costs 1,200 pesos. We just cut th...
