Efficascent Oil
For years, my mother-in-law has been using Efficascent Oil. I don’t know if there have been scientific research done to actually confirm her claims that it works. Efficascent Oil is actually Methyl Salicylate Camphor and Menthol. I don’t know what those are, but it sure smells wonderfully minty.
When my …

Equate Brand Cough Drops
I’m sure that we have all heard of Hall’s Cough Drops; those cherry flavored, menthol cough drops do work quite well. But just like anything else that a ‘name-brand’ company puts on the market, most of what we pay for is the name. That’s not to say that the …
Emergen-C Vitamin C Super Orange powder
I love the original Emergen-C Vitamin C powder nutritional supplement. First of all, it’s highly affective. I’ve noticed a heightened state of mood and productivity after using them. Best of all you don’t need to use them daily in order for them to gradually become effective; after the first …

I bought this to use with my P90X program and I must say that I was slightly dissapointed upon its unboxing. I was looking for more of a temperary/removable type system, to avoid drilling any holes, and this one isn’t it. Not to say that there’s false advertising to …
