Ok, a little known fact about moi!  There is a grocery store in my area that bakes some of the most tantalizing 'just like Grandma's' Cinnamon Buns and they're slathered with heavenly Cream Cheese Frosting...one box of these delectably heaven sent treats can pack on the poundage if one isn't careful but what's worse for me is that one sliver of even one corner of on...

A friend of mine introduced me to the line of products by Kit's Herbs, a local company based in the Philippines. I was made to try their herbal supplement that is made primarily of commonly grown vegetables in our country that were dried and packed using vegetable gel capsules, so the supplement is practically tasteless.When I first tried it, I was made to take a couple of capsules to enhan...

On my quest to seek out a healthier lifestyle a number of things have changed in my life including getting off of prescription medications.  The drawback to this however, is that due to the health issues I have, I need to do something to ensure that my pain, fatigue and "brain fog" don't run away on me and leave me back where I began in 1993.To ensure that I can keep pace wit...

I really like the value of these particular supplements. I have found others that are pretty good also that are sold by other companies but they are standardized to 30%. These are standardized to 40%. They are also extended release which I have not seen anywhere else when it comes to pomegranate supplements. These are gluten free and come 30 to the bottle. I am a big fan of the products th...

I purchased my Fibersure clear mixing fiber supplement at CVS for $7.99.  It is a 7 oz bottle with a flip top lid that has spoon dispensing on one side and shake dispensing on the other side.  Each 1 tsp serving has 25 calories, 6g carbs, 5g fiber, and 0 sugar.  It is recommended that you use 1 serving up to 3 times daily.  Be careful not to use too much your first day, yo...

I purchased a bottle of the Benefiber Fiber Supplement approximately 6 months ago.  It is recommended that I take 1-3 tablets up to 5 times per day.  I could not possible take this many of these tablets.  The taste is absolutely awlful.  I think it was the orange creme flavor that pulled me in on this product, however, these tablets are chalky and feel like glue in my mouth....

I have always been interested in taking dietary supplements that will help prevent colds or help stop a cold that is starting.  My Mom told me about the Airborne Formula supplement.  It comes in a tablet form that you dissolve in a about a 1/3 cup of water.  It comes in several flavors, including orange, Lime, and Pink grapefruit.  I have tried all of the flavors and they al...

I chose to buy the chewable kind that has Calcium and Vitamin D in it. In this particular bottle, you get 90 chewab;e wafers and there is 3 flavors in this bottle: orange, cherry, and fruit punch. You only have to take one of t...

All of a sudden, in the past year, I started developing urinary tract infections. I had not had one of those in a long, long time. But I was put on 5 rounds of antibiotics in a row, and nothing worked. I also had to have numerous uncomfortable tests and procedures. I had always heard that cranberry juice was a great preventative and remedy for urinary tract infections, so I started drinkin...

If you've ever had a urinary tract infection (UTI) then you know how painful and uncomfortable they can be. Burning and bladder spasms make for a less than pleasant existence. I recently had to take 5 rounds of antibiotics to cure a resistant bacteria. That is not good for anyone.So as a preventative, I am now taking Cranberry Supplements by AZO. I have tried several different kinds, and wh...

I started using Chromax  (chromium picolinate), when I read somewhere that it will helps promote healthy blood sugar, aids in cardiovascular health, and will increase energy.  Wow!  That sold me!  Diabetes tends to run in our family, and I was willing to try this supplement if it would fend-off the onset of this disease.I did a little research on the product, and found a stu...

I am a big believer in these pomegranate supplements. My girlfriend first clued me in about the Life Extension folks and I started visiting their website. There is quite a bit of documentation on the cardiovascular benefits of pomegranate and other benefits as well. From my experience the Life Extension people are sort of the Mecca of supplements so to speak. I have heard from more than on...

I am just getting over one of the worst colds/flu that I've ever been through. I coughed 24/7 for days and days with absolutely no relief. Many times I would have choking spells as well.  My throat hurt, and I was running fever. One of the things that really helped me during this time, aside from antibiotics, was Halls Defense Supplemental Drops. I got the Sugar Free Assorted Citrus fl...

I've been reading a lot of information on this product and all the benefits that people have experienced, so I decided to see for myself, if chlorella is really a great supplement that so many consumers claim.  I was told that this brand is the best to buy, because it is processed without heat  and this destroys its nutritional properties.  Compared to other brands on the mar...

Pros: The vitamins are effective. They are cheap ($10). Great for maintaining healthy hair.Cons: The pills may be difficult to swallow. They have a horrible smell. Have to drink double the amount of water you usually drink per day.Oh, how we love our vitamins! Some people say we need them, other's say they are a waste of money bacause our body disposes them as toxic waste. Whatever your opi...

I found these years ago when I was working at Wild Oats. I was working a lot and like so many people (if not everyone) I was feeling pretty run down on top of that run down feeling, I was getting sick. A friend suggested I try Emergen-C. Emergen-C is a powdered drink mix dietary supplement that comes in individual serving packets. Each packet contains .3oz of powder.It says on the packet...

When my husband had the opprtunity to take up a policy with Aflac, we decided to sit down and look over the information.  We both had seen the commericals on t.v. with the cute little ducky but, did not really know much about what they had to offer.  He met with a representive from the compay at work one day and brought home information for us to look over togather.  After carefu...

It has Teavigo, a Green Tea extract, combined with L-Carnitine, both fat burners that transform fat into energy.I took Fitrum for a month and was satisfied with the results. I had more energy to burn therefore I was able to do and accomplish more things. I didn't feel the need to take a nap in the afternoon and so I  got...

There is a fairly new product on the market by Gaspari Nutrition called Myofusion.  My friend told me about it and i thought I should give it a try.  I went to GNC and saw that it was only 21 bucks which is a pretty good price for a 2lb jug of protein powder.  I got the double chocolate flavor which is the best tasting one.  When i got home i mixed it with milk and i th...
