Ex-lax Regular Strength Chocolated laxative pieces
I admit I had an ulterior motive in choosing this product. I was looking for a laxative to use regularly, as my digestion has become slow due to gastroparesis from diabetes.
I chose these first, because they are chocolate. They taste just like little pieces of chocolate candy.
They have …

Yeah, I’ll admit I’ve been a sucker for the get-thin-quick products in the past. When I was in my late teens or early twenties, and when the pressure to look your thinnest was at it’s highest, I definitely fell into the Dexatrim and Slimquick trap a time or two. …
Care One Dandruff Shampoo

Burt’s Bees Hand Sanitizer, Aloe & Witch Hazel

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 …

Diabeti Trim Vanilla Packets
After having tried and liked the Diabeti Trim Chocolate Packets, I just had to give the vanilla packets a try. I like that Diabeti Trim Vanilla Packets are protein packed so that I don�t lose muscle mass while using the drinks. Like the chocolate packets, the directions …

One Coco-Coconut Shea Butter Lip Balm .36 oz
I love coconut, and I have always liked the shea butter lip balms that One makes. They have to be one of the most environmentally friendly, pro-earth, totally natural products I know of—“ except for the saccharin, of course. But saccharin has been exonerated as of late, as long as …

I’ve become a sort of junkie for herbal supplements. Probably not a smart thing to admit to but, hey, it’s all natural and I’m not putting disgusting chemicals in my body that, for the most part, hardly do any good anyway. I’ve spent the last few years looking for …

I love Jason’s Tea Tree Nail Saver. I originally bought it because I thought that I had a possible fungus problem on my big toe, because the nail stopped growing. It ended up being that my nail was a bit ingrown, but either way I find Jason …
N’ice Stretch Night Splint with SEALED ICE,Medium, Gray
