This zinc and blueberry lozenge has the benefit of being all natural but without stevia as a sweetener. I do not care for the taste of stevia. As hard as I try to like it, I just don’t. This product is sweetened with brown rice syrup, which has no …

Having a D&C procedure done at Asian Hospital
Despite St. Luke’s 50% discount on services, I went to Asian Hospital because that’s where my obstetrician is currently holding office. I was bleeding profusely so my doctor immediately scheduled me for a post fractional curetage (D&C). The day before my procedure, …

I feel disappointed when I used Tarta soap. I never heard of Tarta soap but I was really left with no choice so I gave it a try. There were no other available soaps that time but only Tarta soap at the nearest sari-sari store at our area. I …

I have been dealing with dandruff for about two years straight. I’ve used all kinds of different shampoos that are supposed to eliminate dandruff. Of everything, nothing worked. One day I found Selsun Blue Naturals in CVS. I had never used Selsun Blue before, but heard a lot of …

I’m not a health nut by any means, especially when you consider my stash of Reeces Peanutbutter Cups that are constantly being replenished. But, with that said, I DO like to stay active and with my work schedule, and kids and dogs and a household to take care and …

I’ll be honest and say that, in the past, I’d only use Bic razors if every other razor on the face of the earth had somehow disappeared. Usually it felt like you might as well be shaving your leg with a Bic pen, and gouging yourself in the process! …

Vicks VapoRub is one of the products that has been around forever, it seems. I have used Vicks VapoRub on my children, my mother used Vicks VapoRub on me, and I am sure that my mother’s mother used Vicks VapoRub on her. Why? Because Vicks VapoRub is a wonderful …

I went to Planned Parenthood for four years while I was in college. I think Planned Parenthood is such a great thing. I was a poor college student just trying to make ends meet with minimal health insurance. I went to Planned Parenthood each year for my annual pap …

A friend gave me this Ascencia Entrust Diabetes Care system about a year ago when I started running my very own clinic and I really appreciated receiving it because now I can be able to spot check the blood sugar of patients who are potentially diabetics.
Using it is …

I’m not sure why I find nutty smells so appealing since I usually tend to gravitate towards the more femine flowery smells, much to my best friend’s chagrin since she can’t stand those smells, but this Macademia Natural Oil Deep Repair Masque is a fabulous invention as far as …

We were given free samples of the Gargol Oral Wash in one of the establishments we went into when we were having our lunch. All you need to do is sign up your name and you will be given 2 flavors of a 10 ml sample. As indicated in …

It had been a while since I had used Crest Whitestrips (the original) and it seemed like over time, Crest kept coming out with new and improved whitestrips. Either that, or it was the same product with some marketing tricks designed to sell more and elevate the price. …
