I had high hopes for the Rapid White tooth whitener. It cost £30 and with its little hand held device which emits ultra violet light, it looked like a more professional option to the various toothpastes, gels and rinses I’ve tried in the past. So I paid the £30 …

I have used Thayer’s regular Slippery Elm lozenges in the past, and loved them. The original are tangerine flavored, and have an interesting wheat-like taste and slightly grainy texture that dissolves into a slippery coating that really helps soothe a scratchy or dry throat. The last box I bought was …

There are lots of things I …

I have been using NatureMade’s multivitamins for almost 2 years. They give me extra energy and help fill in the nutritional gaps in my diet. At first I did not like the huge size of the softgel capsules because I previously had never been able to swallow anything that …
