For those of you who suffer with heartburn, I feel for you. Recently I went to a doctor about chest pain and I swear my heart was fluttering. Being only 25 I figured it was only stress. This very nice doctor (who I will not see again) wanted to set me up with some very expensive tests to determine if I had a heart murmur he could not hear on his stethoscope. Granted there always is a small chan...

  Weight Watchers sells a bag with 12 individual portions of this creamy, mild cheddar cheese.  For those on the Weight Watchers plan, the pieces are one point value per piece.  For others watching their calories, the serving size is two pieces, with 90 calories and 6 grams of fat per serving.The cheese is very rich and creamy. I TRULY wouldn't guess it was reduced fat, if I ...

Febreeze Allergen Reducer is a spray made by Febreeze.  It says it will reduce the effects of allergies, and when I went to stay at my parents' house with their 2 cats as well as my sisters' 2 dogs and cat, my mother in law bought a bottle for me.  She had no idea whether or not it would do anything, but I needed all the help I could get.I wasn't there for very long when m...

I think that most of us who have kids will agree that teething is one of the most miserable times for our little munchkins! Topical relief gels are helpful...but some times it's just not helpful enough! Infant Tylenol is another product I've used for my son and I'm sure most if not all parents are familiar with that brand name...but I found that even that somtimes wears off to quick...

I like my house smelling clean as well as being clean, but I also have to watch out for my allergies as well.

I'm always looking for a new concealer, because Imy skin is prone to breakous and lots of little red bumps.  I was really exited when I saw this product because of the amount of salycilic acid in it (1% as opposed to .5% in other products) when I first started using it, I was really pleased.  It has a nice consistency, and does help cover redness and reduces it even after I wash t...

Our new house has hardwood in the entry hallway, dining area and kitchen and I hate sweeping! I found this at Bed, Bath and Beyond and told my husband I was buying it! It is vacuum for your hardwood floors! Yes, I am lazy and dispise sweeping! This is super easy to use. You do need to keep it plugged in because it is cordless. Just turn it on and 'sweep' your area. You can also use this...

A little about the test subject: I have mild-moderate to moderate acne depending on my "time of the month," most of which is in the form of traditional zits, and I've gone through a 55-count container of this over the course of several months. I decided to use it once a day, in the evening, as I generally use a Lush brand soap I'm rather loyal to ...

My hubby works in a factory where there are a lot of noises. I can imagine how noisy the environment where my hubby works. Something surprised me recently. It’s about my hubby’s hearing. I noticed that lately his hearing has started to decrease. It really worries me. So I talked to him one day about this matter and he said he would get help. I think he went to his supervisor and tha...

In my former life as a member of Corporate America, I traveled. A lot. 2 weeks out of every month. Within the USA and overseas. Was Platinum Frequent Flier in my first year. One of the things I really despised about traveling, besides being away from my husband, was the increasingly-declining-already-crappy service from the airlines. I got so sick and tired of the same run-around b.s. from the ...

There has been many claims about the use of Omega-3 fish oil. Some of it was exaggerated (as a cure for cancer) and some of it was not (heart-healthy). But, other Wegener's Granulomatosis patients have used this supplement to good effect. So I am going to tell you my story of using this product.About two years ago, my inflammation markers for this disease were high. At one point the markers...

My Use For Ear Plugs:I use earplugs for multiple reasons. The first being I'm a night owl and my familys up during the day so I need something to block out the noise for my day sleeping. I also sleep at night during certain times. I can hear my father snoring from another room which can be so loud so I also use the earplugs at night also. Yup,my body clocks wacky. Some other reasons I might...

Pepcid Complete promises to be an acid reducer plus antacid in one pill, so it's like taking a regular Pepcid and a Tums in one dose.  I was excited to give this new product a try because I get heartburn fairly often from eating spicy foods.  The last time I ate buffalo wings, I took one of these Pepcids as soon as I got heartburn.  The directions say to chew up the tablet, s...

Just about everything involving pain relievers is on the market to cure a body ache. Anything a person want, it is there for the consumer. Experience: I remember getting this sudden back pain while out on a date. My then boyfriend bought me Tylenol Extra Strength: Pain Reliever and Fever Reducer in caplets.

Nothing ages a person more than wrinkles and dark circles around the eyes.  Although I was using a face cream who's wrinkle reduction I was pleased with, I needed something specifically for my problematic eye areas.  You know, the dark circles, puffiness, and creases that shout "I'm the mother of young children who hasn't slept 8 consecutive hours in five years!"...
