The infomercial begins: “Ladies, listen up, are your arms….” and my eyes were immediately drawn to the arms. Not the girl in the infomercial. So, I did some research by looking online, and was tempted to order it from the television. Ordering from the television is not the best …

I tend to sneeze a lot sometimes through out the day, and normally I just dealt with it because I was just getting a cold every time, however I thought that I may have developed allergies. My mom had a few Benadryl caplets left over from when she had …

After my very first experience with bio oil, I have been hooked. For me this is the ultimate miracle oil for a wide variety of different skin problems and issues.
I was first recommended to try Bio Oil after being bitten on the face by an animal. The …

You may have heard of Bob Greene through his personal training work with Oprah, or from his many contributions as a writer and editor for O the Oprah Magazine. Though I myself had heard of Greene through his many published programs and works, it was only recently …

Having read Denise Austin’s Tone your Tummy Type diet and fitness plan, and tried both her Power Zone: Mind, Body, Soul workout, and the Shrink Your Female Fat Zones DVD; I didn’t hesitate to try her Power Zone: The Ultimate Metabolism Boosting Workout. I happen to enjoy …

I still remember trying my first Tae Bo workout years ago. I was huffing and puffing, but doing my best, and then I found out we were still only in the warm-up. Whoa Billy, you could have knocked me over with a feather.
The neighbors …

This is the second foot spa that my husband has bought me and man can I say one thing? This this thing is so cheap just like the first one he got me. Now don’t get me wrong, this thing feels great. It makes my feet feels good …

The Thermionics Advanced ThermiPaq Therapeutic Hot & Cold Pad is just another in a long line of heating pads and cold packs that I’ve tried my hand at over the years. My experience with this kinds of products is really beginning to border on the compulsive, but as long …

I love a good massage… who doesn’t, really, right? And, sadly, more often than not, it’s not a matter of luxury so much as it’s a matter of necessity. I managed to tweak my back and shoulder over the last (almost) two years at my job, which requires a …

I’m beginning to realize, based on my own extensive stock, that it’s rather sad I have this much experience with pain ointments and heating pads and things of the like, but such is my lot in life and at least I know I can share my experiences with others. …

I have to say, I originally purchased the Thera-Med Maximum Strength Universal Reusable Cold Pack, because the picture on the box on how it’s used was intriguing. I saw a women with a thing wrapped completely around her neck, and seemed to take the shape of the area and …

Every spring and every fall, I find myself totally miserable because if it’s not an itchy mouth and throat and nose due to allergies, then it’s the itchy and dry eyes. In fact, the itchy eyes seems to be the worst, because you can’t help but rub your eyes …

Okay, so I have to admit that I didn’t buy the Thermophore Arthritis Pad Soothing Pain Relief because of arthritis exactly, but it was recommended to me by the pharmacist on duty for the problems I was experiencing. I have severe back problems that have gone undiagnosed for the …

When I first learned about the health benefits of VCO, I bought one for my mother who was experiencing some health problems at that time. I read a lot about its promising health benefits being testified by other people who experienced dramatic improvement in their health conditions. …

Ever since I started wearing contact lenses three years ago, I only bought solutions that were recommended by my optometrist. I use extended contact lenses, the one you can use for a period of one year because I can save a significant amount of money compared to buying …

For absolutely ages, I had problems with my sinuses and a feeling of a blocked up nose.  I tried a lot of different products some medical and some natural, but nothing which really worked.  What I really wanted to find was something completely natural. As an ongoing problem I …

I sort of have a love hate relationship with Pilates, but I persist in trying new workouts and equipment because there are just so many differences between instructors and methods.
At one point it seemed as if nearly every major fitness trainer or discipline that …

When one gets sick due to allergies, cold, flu, or any illness that causes a runny noise, having a durable and comfortable tissue is very important. One brand of tissue is Kleenex 2-Ply Tissues. Kleenex has been making tissues for as long as I can remember. …

I am one of those lucky people who gets adult acne at forty. I don’t usually treat it with medications unless it gets particularly bad. This past month I did have a bad breakout but couldn’t really afford my usual cream, so I bought Walmart’s brand of acne treatment, …

Miracle of the Dead Sea products can be found at kiosks in malls, at least that’s where I found mine. I was accosted in a mall by one of their salespeople, and couldn’t seem to get away. After a series of questions about my skin care regimen, the sales …

The last time I went to get my hair styled, I complained to my hairdresser about my haircolor fading after only a couple of weeks after I used it. She recommended that I buy a rather expensive bottle of Redken product called Color Extend Color Veil. Supposedly this …

I tried Degree deodorant stick for the first time because it was on sale and I had a coupon so it was a great deal. Now I buy it even at regular price. My favorite scent is the fresh oxygen but all of them are nice. This deodorant works, …

I often like to start the day with a Bodies in Motion workout with Gilad. Recently I learned that Gilad, a fitness veteran who has worked with countless celebs such as Arnold Schwartzeneger, and Jack La Lanne, since hitting the scene in 1983; also hold the honor …

This little device clips onto my belt and is supposed to create a “cloud” around me which is supposed to keep mosquitoes from coming too close to me. I liked the idea behind the device because it meant not having to spray myself with mosquito repellent or keep a …

These wristbands seem to only protect part of the body from mosquitoes. When wearing one of these wristbands, I still got bit up by mosquitoes on certain parts of my body, like my neck, one of the absolute worst places to get bit, on the back of my neck, …

This stuff works miracles. Seriously, it’s fantastic. We all know how annoying and unpleasant it is to be bitten by mosquitoes. The itching, the swelling, the burning… it’s all just so unwanted and distracting. Well this stuff from AfterBite works remarkably well, better than any other stuff that I’ve …

This patch product is an alternative to bug spray and bug repellent, and for me anyway, it seems to work pretty well. All I have to do is apply the patch before I go out for an extended period of time, and what it does is change the scent …

This was a good product to have around the house in case of bee stings, although it also worked alright for other types of bites like mosquitoes. Unfortunately, I can’t find it in stores any more. The only place I can find it is online at Amazon, but I …

I bought a membership to the Fitness 19 gym in Fremont, CA a couple of months ago and have been working out there 2 to 3 times a week every week. The gym is a no frills gym, meaning no locker rooms, showers, pool, or …

I tried my first Shiva Rea Daily Energy workout this morning. In the Fire and Water Practice, we did a series of standing poses and arm balancing sequences that constantly evolved throughout the workout. I have to say this new program has a completely different feel than …

I took my daughter to Phoenix Children’s Hospital located in Phoenix, AZ. last Sunday. We went to the emergency room of the hospital for my daughter to be seen at. I was surprised with the attitudes of the most of the staff since this is a childrens hospital and …

I have taken my daughter to this hospital through the emergency room several times over the last few months. I have always had excellent service and a good experience with this hospital until recently. I am so disappointed to be writing a negative review as they were always …

For most of us who are not bestowed with a beautiful glistening set of teeth, it’s commonplace to find consolation in using products that help us at least suppress our insecurities. Be it whitening/bleaching toothpastes and even faux whitening strips, I learned early that dousing too many products …

I already had a sun burn when I bought this sun block. I had been outside for six straight hours and whatever sun block on had put on previously obviously didn;t work because I got a pretty serious sun burn. I went into my university convenient store and looked …

I first bought this product at Rite Aid because it was cheaper than the usual kind I buy and I figured I would try it out. It was about six dollars for a pretty large container of it. The one I usually get was about the same price but …

I just started using these pantiliners and by beginning to use them, I realized how much I hate using regular pads. I began using these because my period was light enough that I didn’t think I needed to use those thick pads with wings that make you feel uncomfortable. …

For a few years now I have seen commercials for the Slimquick Diet, and although I’ve never taken their dubious claims seriously, I wondered how exactly the plan was supposed to work. When a friend of mine spotted a super sale on Slimquick diet packets, I figured …

While I am already a big fan of both Wai Lana Yoga, and Fit TV’s Namaste Yoga; you may wonder why I consistently seek to try other Yoga offerings. Well, perhaps it’s to discourage boredom, or maybe I just enjoy the novelty of a new workout; either …

I have been completely hooked on home Microdermabrasion treatments ever since I learned the many anti-aging benefits manual exfoliation has to offer. Whether I want to rev up circulation and speed up the transfer of nutrients, help peel away dull surface cells, or simply improve skin texture …

When ever a new diet appears on the horizon, I feel compelled to either buy it, try it, or debunk it. Generally it takes only a few seconds to spot the gimmick, several minutes to dodge the often erroneous nuggets of wisdom, and just a few more …

I decided to give the Fullbar Diet another shot since, although I was unimpressed with the chocolate chip bar, I really wanted to taste the peanut butter crunch variety. Just for the record the last time I tried the Full Bar Diet, I didn’t lose an ounce, …

I have always wanted to learn Belly Dancing and was quite happy to learn that my Direct TV provider not only offered the Fit TV channel, but that a Belly Dance workout was part of their daily lineup. It only took one Shimmy workout and I was …

I came across The Cheater’s Diet recently, and must admit I thought at first it was related to the television show of the same name. I briefly even imagined Cheater’s host Joey Greco popping up out of nowhere, and ordering you to put down the bag of …

I can’t help but be fascinated with the often outrageous claims of popular diet pills. With American obesity at epidemic proportions, and an estimated 46 billion dollars spent on diets and self-help books alone last year; it seems as if diet pill makers must become even more …

For years I struggled with quitting smoking, it seems at times a battle still far from won. Having always considering myself pretty strong-willed, I wondered why when I needed will power the most; did it suddenly abandon me for the lure of a mentholated puff.
…

When the makers of the Perfect Pushup came out with their device, I knew it would only be a matter of time before others would soon arrive. That Christmas in fact, I actually purchased a pair for a family member knowing that the knock-offs would be there …

The Abundance wellness center in Chicopee was a great place to go and unwind and receive a great massage and a few other services that I will mention. The first thing I like about this place was the appearance because the outside of this place looked like a house …

I am picky when it comes to protein and I have never been an overly huge fan of the supplement company VPX but something attracted me to this product that they made. The main reason I was attracted to this product was because they gave so much inside of …

The Healthtrax gym in West Springfield MA is a decent gym to go and workout at and I have been there many times when I was when in the area and the only thing I can say that would have made this place better would be the hours. This …

I needed a new electric toothbrush but couldn’t find a brand name one under $20 at my local drug store until my Pharmacist suggested I buy the Life Brand Electric Toothbrush for just $6.99CDN. Life Brand is a store brand and therefore doesn’t get the advertising exposure of other …
