First of all. Where was this thing all my college life!!? I've been a drinker for as long as I can remember.

Also, there is an opening where you can put a filter into the mask. Without the filter, it offers 2-layer protection.

Researchers now know that the best form of Vitamin C to take is \"liposomal\" -- that is, combined with a fat so your body can absorb it. This Root Vitality product combines each cap of 1450 mg of Vitamin C with (non-GMO) sunflower oil & lecithin. In our experience, that means you get a healthy dose of C that doesn't upset your stomach or cause extra bathroom trips.
These days, with the Covid virus around, as well as all the usual flu and cold bugs, we make it a point to take high-quality Vitamin C every day, and we prefer this liposomal form for ultimate absorption.

If using the straightener, my advice would be to grab the piece of section, clamp down on the piece, grab the plastic end at the tip (it will not burn), and press the clamps together while sliding down the hair section. This is the best way to get an even and straight hair section!

My biggest complaint is that there's always an ugly section on the bun where the ends of the clip meet- when I bring the hair down to cover the hooks, that part always looks saggy because it doesn't have the width of the clip holding the hair stiff there like on the rest of the bun. It's not that big of a deal, but its enough for me to take off a star. I'll be trying the cloth version next to see if that gets better results.", "label": 1}

WHAT IS THIS LIKE?
This comes in a bag which is pretty good at insulating against moisture and air, if you open it correctly. Just cutting below the plastic seal allows for enough room to re-zip the bag shut.
THE POWDER
The powder inside is very fresh smelling. I have had spirulina which tastes overwhelming and others which tastes almost gaggy. This one, however, is not unpleasant like some I have had.
SCOOP
This comes with a small scoop inside to measure for smoothies.
TASTE
I am not minding this one. The last spirulina powder I had was a bit overwhelming for me. This one does not take over the smoothies in the same way. It is earthy in flavor but not repulsive.
THE BOTTOM LINE
For a good raw source of spirulina for shakes, smoothies, baking, or supplementation this seems to be a bit nicer than some. It does not taste bad and it comes with a measure scoop.

FIVE STARS. One of my favorite spirulina powders so far that I have tried. It is very fresh smelling.", "label": 1}

When I found this product that focused on knee pain, I gave it a try. It works and I was completely surprised at how well they work. I put these inserts in any shoe that will fit. I can't recommend them enough if you have any knee pain and haven't found something that helps.
In fact, I think everyone in Manhattan must buy them. I found them one time in Walgreens and have never found them in any drug store (in Manhattan!!). I find them for men but not the women's version. That says it all.
I bought 4 sets via Amazon (through Colorado..?? as an Amazon merchant) to add to my existing 2 pair collection.
For someone who lives in a walking city that LOVES their shoes (and their knees), I KNOW what is going to help you stay on your feet.
If you have knee pain and want some relief, give them a try
Good luck with those knees :)", "label": 1}

It comes in two separate packages, one for night time and one for day time. Also, the tea is already packaged it's not loose leaf, so it's very easy to use. The directions are simple, just steep for 4-5 minutes. I personally like the flavor of both teas. The morning tea seems to have a little more of a fruity flavor and the night time tea is just a simple tea taste. Neither are sweet, which is my preference so I think they are both good. I'm sure you could add lemon or something and it wouldn't hurt the detox. My main purpose for purchasing was to detox my body in terms of producing regular bowel movements, sorry if that's TMI but that's the truth. I'm not a regular at all. I can take laxatives and I still don't go right away. I drank this tea this weekend and I was able to go to the bathroom. It wasn't a painful experience nor was it over the top. It was just right.

One packet is great for a regular sized bath, but if you have an oversized bath or jetted tub, two packets are perfect. These bath salts are great in a foot bath too. If you want heavily scented water, use a full packet, while I found half a packet to be the perfect amount for my shallow foot bath.
Bath salts are great for soothing achy, tired muscles. Perfect for relaxing and letting the stress melt away. These leave no residue in the bathtub, nor a lingering scent or residue on my skin. My skin felt silky smooth and softened after a bath.

The packaging allows for one tissue to be extracted and I personally use that one nose wipe as much as I can before throwing it away. If I am sitting at my desk, I might use 1-2 tissues in half a day which says a lot for someone who blows their nose every 20 mins. However, each individual tissues is a wetter version of a baby wipe so when you have to move you have to keep the wipe in your hand or throw it away unless you want wet pockets.
TL;DR - These are great on your nose and can be used much longer than the average tissue before you have to throw it away", "label": 1}

Lately I have had a bout with \"Brain Fog\" where it just feels as if I cannot focus on anything; everything feels mundane, and my typical ability to articulate concepts felt extremely dull. I was trying to combat this with caffeine, and to no avail I was sitting there day after day feeling ever so \"foggy\".
After the first day (I know sounds ridiculous), but after a single dose, a few hours went by and I started to feel sharp again. Which leads me to believe that I was developing a heightened level of anxiety from my caffeine consumption. Which leads me to another part of this product I did enjoy so much. I believe it has Theanine which helps combat those anxious jitters you might get from coffee or in my case pre-workout supplements.
The takeaway I have so far is that I can take this either in the morning to assist with my foggyness, or (my favorite time) right before a workout, with my preworkout, which leaves me razor sharp without any jitters. This is my first bout with a focus supplement like this that actually proved to be effective, and I can honestly say that I will be a repeat customer.

I found this blood pressure machine easy to use by myself. Because of the way the cuff is designed, it is easy to get on and off alone. The numbers on the screen are large enough to read easily if you have the voice mode turned off. If you have the voice mode on, the machine will not only tell you what your BP is but also it plays music. I find this annoying and so keep mine on mute.
Comparing this cuff to my other one, I found it to be quite accurate. It also checks for an irregular heartbeat.
What I did find a bit strange was that the machine did not come with batteries even though the package had a form fitting area for the batteries. It also did not come with a micro USB charging cable even though there is a port for one and the instructions show you how to use it. It works well with the charging cable, you just need to provide your own.

4. Begin attaching the silicone piece to the outer corner of your lif and work your way inside being mindful not to trap any lashes between your lid and the silicone.
5. Use 70% isopropyl alcohol to remove oils from your lid (be extremely careful, do not get it in your eye!)

The first thing that hits once you spray this stuff in your mouth is the bitterness. Then comes a burst of not great flavor and very mild sweetness. I guess my expectation was that this product would be very sweet and flavorful rather than bitter. Getting through a couple of sprays is rough, but 5 sprays is a bit of torture unless you enjoy bitter things that don\u2019t taste well. I gave the product a try a few times to properly review the effect on my energy levels, but I can\u2019t say I felt much of a difference. Perhaps there was some increase in energy, but it must have been very mild; nothing like what you would get from an energy drink or an energy shot, and you still have to endure the bitter bad flavor and aftertaste.
This did not work for me in any level; however, that is not to say that it might not work for you, since these types of products affect people differently and it also depends on your sensitivity, so you might get the bursts of energy this product claims, but it just wasn\u2019t my experience therefore I can\u2019t really recommend this product. My recommendation to the manufacturer would be that they lower the bitterness and increase the sweetness and scent so it is a more pleasant experience.", "label": 0}

The base is a weird egg type shape which is a bit too big/bulky for my hands to hold comfortably.
My husband was curious about it, saw it charging, and tried it on his face first without much success. So it does not seem to work as well on coarse hair as on fine.

This sleek, lightweight toothbrush is charged over USB and lasts a month or so on a single charge. It has multiple modes/speeds from a normal brush to polishing and buildup removal. The higher modes have a pulsing sensation rather than just vibrating at one speed. It comes with 6 brush heads so you can replace one every two months for a year's worth of brushing.

When you use this type of sonic toothbrush for the first time, the vibrations can be either pleasantly stimulating or somewhat irritating depending on your gums, but you become used to it over time.

I was really hoping for that \"good cup of coffee\" flavor that was mentioned in the product description. The artificial sweetener taste is just overpowering and there's not enough real coffee flavor. Luckily, I got to try it for free in exchange for this review. Otherwise \u2013 first of all I'd never have even considered purchasing it for $70 for 20 servings, and second, even if I paid $20 I'd be extremely disappointed in this product.

The bottle design is awful - the plastic packaging is unremarkable, and pouring oil directly out of the bottle ALWAYS causes dripping onto the top of the bottle. And the oil itself is so flavorless that it could essentially be a neutral oil, not extra virgin olive oil. Considering the price, there's absolutely no reason to buy this oil since you can get better (and cheaper) at a regular store.
To characterize flavor, I compared it to another common brand of olive oil as a reference (photo shows GreenIVe on the left, other oil on the right). The GreenIVe olive oil is a shade lighter in color and considerably thinner/less viscous. Flavor-wise, the GreenIVe oil has no particular distinguishing flavors rather than notes of plastic and maybe a hint of olive. No aftertaste - it essentially goes away with no lingering flavor. It really does taste like almost nothing. Comparatively, the oil I compared it to was robust, flavorful, and had a spicy aftertaste. There's basically no reason to use the GreenIVe olive oil to make something taste good, i.e. making a salad dressing or finishing a dish. Its best use is coating a pan for light sauteeing, where it's essentially a thin neutral oil.", "label": 0}

Pre-workout powders are hard to judge. There's so much other stuff that goes into your stack that you potentially might miss all the benefits. However, having said that, I feel like this did help my performance.
The only real negative is the caffeine released seems to be almost instantaneous. I usually workout in the morning, so I've usually already had 1 or 2 cups of coffee, and the addition of this all at one time is a little too much for my body to handle and causes headaches. I've adjusted my regular coffee intake in the morning against the amount of caffeine in this pre-workout since I have them so close together. Even though I'm still rating this 5 stars, I feel like the caffeine release is something to be aware of.

Cheese is basically a suspension of water, milk, milk fats, and other stuff turned solid. When you melt it, all that stuff separates and becomes gross. Sodium citrate stops that from happening, keeping cheese's ingredients mixed together. This is the same reason why Kraft Singles, Velveeta, and nacho cheese don't get all gross when melted. Why not use the same ingredient in your home kitchen?
Cook one pound of elbow macaroni and drain. In the stockpot, mix about a pint of milk, half a stick of butter, and a teaspoon of this stuff. Let it get nice and hot, stirring constantly to mix it all together well.
Now dump in four cups of whatever shredded cheese you want, a little bit at a time, stirring until melted. Once all that is all added and melted, mix in the elbow macaroni.
Simple, and it works great. You can vary the amount of sodium citrate as well as milk to get different consistencies.", "label": 1}

Some of these ingredients you need to be careful of, specifically the L-Dopa and DHEA. Too much of these supplements can cause anxiety and aggression. To my knowledge Tribulus does nothing and it is the dominant ingredient. The pills have a funky smell, which is from the indole-3-carbinol. I3C coverts to DIM in your body, and DIM is in these as well, which is redundant.

I had just used the shaver on one occasion. Having used it now for 3 months I can provide a full-throated, honest review, which luckily for the manufacturer is all positive.
First everything I said initially still stands. Add to that, the unit holds well in my big hands.
Secondly, the shaver holds the charge for several uses. Excellent.
Thirdly, it is super easy to clean. Just use a credit card or similar thin plastic to prize each head up from the base of the black section. If you do not flip it securely from the bottom of the black section, you run the risk of hitting the foil, which cannot be a good thing.
Fourth, I can speak only for the basic use of the shaver, I have not tried any of the attachments, although I am going to experiment with the face brush.
Fifth, Shaver does a great job covering my head-top and face, including my mustache.
Sixth, the change in sound tells you when you are covering areas where there is still hair.
UNFORTUNATELY, in anticipation of having to eventually replace the head which must get dull at some point, the seller advised me that they do not sell the replacement heads. I believe that the documentation required that only the head built for this unit be used. Hope I am wrong.

Turns out the towel method (the \"free\" method) is infinitely better. For starters, the foam pad does a horrible job at smoothing out the lotion. It is WAY too smooth and the lack of a frictional surface causes you to have to apply an intense amount of pressure just to be able to rub the lotion. Secondly, and by far the deal breaker in my eyes, the sides of the pads have a tough ridge. When rubbing the lotion along your back you will likely at some point use it at the wrong angle which causes the ridges of the pad to stab areas of your back. This is now only painful but also will leave your back covered in scratches. The handle is sturdy but because it is slightly arched you can't get any pressure on the pad when applying the lotion.
Overall this is a horrible product and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone trying to find a tool to apply lotion to their back with. You are much better off with the tried and true \"towel method\".

It is the second toy that I have purchased for the bedroom. Both my husband and myself enjoy this item immensely. The penis ring has a silicone cover, so you want to make sure when you use it, that you have it properly covering the base which is the vibration piece. You slip the ring over the penis down to the base and turn it on. The various speeds will bring you and your partner the most extreme pleasure. The bumps are for the woman to enjoy while the vibration is assisting in the pleasure department for the male. The flexibility of the silicone will allow it to fit any size penis. It is easy to keep clean, you will simply slip the silicone off the base of the vibration piece and rinse with soap and water. You can dry off with a soft cloth or let it air dry. For storage and discretion, you can put it back into the pouch and into a drawer. The item can be playful as well as being out of sight and mind from anyone else. Anybody who wants a little more spice in the bedroom, this would make a great addition to your intimate toy collection. You can't go wrong with the color pink either! I did receive this item at a discount in exchange for my honest & unbiased review and that is exactly what I have given. All of the statements are true and my own.", "label": 1}

There were no product reviews when I purchased and that was a concern, but I checked the reviews of other Comodita walkers and that made me feel confident to go ahead.
I just received the walker and gave it to my grandmother. She loved it and I loved it too! Beautiful color (champagne) and very stylish. Very easy to maneuver and grandmother says she feels very confident using it.

There are many options online and at the store, and Pine brand gel nail polish has become a favorite of ours. We like having the base coat, a light colored finish coat, and then the option of ending with either a glossy or matte finish coat, all from one kit and from one company. I have used other company\u2019s products from start to finish and while mixing the brands from base to finish coat, and the gel nails still look nice. Using the products in this kit, and then also with other Pine brand colors, simply provides a long lasting finish that is much cheaper than going to the salon. Pine advertises that they can provide a high quality finish with just one color coat, and that is true, however, a two-coat color finish is much better. We typically get two to three weeks on our fingernails, and even a bit longer on our toenails.

Easy to open clamp but still tight enough to stay closed on your hair.
Heats up nicely. Not as hot as I'm used to but I have a crazy hot flat iron (300F+) still curls nicely.
There isn't a kickstand to rest it on when it's still hot so you'll have to hang it somewhere or find a safe place to put it on while it cools.
There is also no temperature increase or decrease option so you'll have to work with what you've got.
Might be a nice travel curler or just a back up for a guest bathroom or one guests can use.
Not the best curler ever but it's nicely made, does the job and it's great travel size. Comes in cute colors and gets very hot for a small curler.

Then suddenly, like 4 hours later, I realized my neck was not nearly as stiff and the pain was much better. I thought maybe a coincidence so did it again the next day with same results. My family member suffers as well so I had him try it and he seemed skeptical of course. He then slept so good and said the same thing, that at first nothing, then hours later huge improvement. I don\u2019t understand red light therapy so I\u2019m not sure how it works but this really does help. So much so that I purchased a second one for my family member.

I have very sensitive teeth and have tried others but could never use them the length of time needed. This is the 1st thing I have ever found that I can actually use!!!! I even asked my dentist if there was something I could use to whiten my teeth but they told me because of my teeth being very sensitive, they don't have anything that would be able to be used.
I am actually very shocked that this does not bother my sensitivity and I can use it the amount of time needed, actually I have even used it longer then the 10-15 minutes recommended and did not have a problem. You also get a remineralizing gel syringe and I thought I would have to use it, but I have not touched it once!

Now in their defense this is not labeled as a candy but this (based on a scale of 1-10 where 10 is tasty and 1 is bland) deserves a 1.5-2 on the sweetness scale (where is that honey flavor?).
This taste more medicinal with a slight bitter edge (from the zinc?), a lightly gritty feel to the lozenge and that odd dry kinda pastie feel in the mouth.
I am so used to the lemon and honey ones from that European company that I guess I expect that in a lozenge made with honey.
Soothing? Not really for me. Sorry but there was no cooling minty thing going on and I didn\u2019t get any soothing feel or effect but this is my mouth and I am sure others would have a better experience.
I think the ingredients are in the right direction but I have been too spoiled to overly sweet lozenges.
Give them a try yourself as all I can do is describe what I felt and tasted myself literally as I am writing this review.
I will keep them nearby for when I am desperate to heal a sore throat as I feel that zinc is a real plus over other brands ingredients.
Maybe if they added some Erythritol it could help and keep it low in carbs as well\u2026 just my two cents.

The only downside is a loud neighbor, a night owl who crashes around in her apartment at midnight, leaves for work at 1am, comes home at 4am, then takes the garbage out.
The noise machine creates a soothing blanket of whooshing air that covers up our neighbour. However, why oh why doesn't Marpac make it with a dial to adjust the speed of the fan? Honestly, it is just a little too loud - we'd love to be able to dial it down a bit. If we wanted something this loud that we could just leave the bathroom extractor fan on all night.
Marpac does make a more expensive model with two speed settings, but why not just make one model with several settings (like every desk fan on the market, for instance). The people who buy this product are most likely sensitive to noise already, so why not give them the ability to adjust the noise generator to their own specifications?
I guess Marpac are the only people out there making these things, so they have no competition and thus no reason the improve the product. One model, with multi-speed setting (more than just two!), would seem to be an obvious next-step for them.

The case & little containers inside are fantastic. I also like that they include a tube of calendula cream. I've actually utilized the glass capsules for my dad's emergency heart meds & the big emergency medical remedies that should be in every kit, I've just replaced them with my own.
My thoughts-This kit is just ok.
I didn't find the book very helpful. So if you're a beginner, please do your own research & have homeopathic friends you trust to guide you.
The remedies that I use at home dissolve very quickly when placed under the tongue, as they're supposed to do. These remedies are very hard, like tiny pebbles & do not dissolve for quite a few minutes. This just tells me that in an emergency situation, the remedy is not hitting the system quickly enough. Also, if you're trying to dose a young child or a pet, I can't see how you'll keep their mouths shut long enough for these to dissolve without stressing out the recipients.
So, if the kit is just for you & you know what to do with what's included, this is a great compact kit to take with you in the car, hiking or anywhere you don't want to bring along anything huge.
I hope this helps anyone just starting out.", "label": 0}

Well most brands have some sort of offset unbalancement in the designing of their clippers whether it be a strong motor and not enough power or a lot of power but no torque or any combination.. I just felt that I haven't come across any clippers that seem to have the ability to do everything and have almost all categories be at the highest level.
So as I set out to build a clipper and spent plenty of time researching I found that this motor out of the gate had that potential.
I utilized this motor with the set up and it has both the constant high rpm with torque that doesn't even bother the dog down in super dense coarse hair or make you have to do multiple passes. I'm absolutely in love with this motor and I think if anybody knows how to do any type of basic soldering, if they have anything other than a wahl 1919 they would easily upgrade their magic clips or seniors or designers or any other type of wall cordless rotary clipper with these ones and be easily pleased.

He had me roll up a towel, lay on the floor, and then put it under my upper back so that my neck was hanging back.
Now I do not have to spend time rolling up a towel. Also, this is harder which is better for alignment. There are three adjustment levels based on the blocks used. I use it on the lowest setting, which is with the two bottom blocks removed. It works great but does take some getting used to. This is a perfect daily exercise for my neck. I just lay on the floor while the back of my neck/head hangs over this. I am able to do this for 5 minutes. Eventually, I'll work up to 10 minutes.
In summary, this works for me. I love the adjustment levels available and the ease with which this can be used.

The file\u2019s shank is round, so it is easy to let the tool roll side to side on the fret. The previous model had a squared shank that gave a better sense of the correct orientation, when the flat side of the shank is is flat and level, the file groove will be properly oriented on the fret. With this file, you have to feel for the proper orientation.
The wide groove can be used to flatten a single tall fret, or 3 or 4, much more than that you will want the leveling beam. To level a fret takes a bit of pressure, but to actually crown the fret, you need to use a lighter touch. Overpressure will definitely chew up the frets a bit.

It's awesome for several reasons: 1. No more worrying about my reused Dasani bottle getting squashed again -- this thing is unsquashable 2. No more worrying that my water bags will tear or burst -- this thing is untearable and unburstable. 3. It's slim like a 1 liter soda bottle so it fits in all cupholders, carriers, and pack pockets. 4. It's easy to use with a filter 5. A liter bottle is the perfect size to filter so I can make exactly one mug of tea and one small pot of noodles on the tent stove 6. My 28mm bottle cap that has holes in it for use as a dog shower or watering can also fits 7. If I lose the cap, I can borrow one off any Coke bottle, and 8.

We used them in a bathroom with a sliding door, and oak cabinetry. It was a nightmare to remove the adhesive that gummed itself strongly to the sliding door and cabinetry after using leveling cement on the wood floor prior to attaching an electric heated flooring mat into thin-set mortar and tile.

The plastic suction is a very hard piece, even though the seller stated in the questions and comments, that it is made of a soft material. Lastly, it does not remove any blackheads.
Before I used this machine, I used my facial steamer to open the pores. Even with my pores open, using hot steam, this machine did not work.

The only thing that I did like about the device is the design, it looks like a tulip and that I find adorable.
This is not an item I would ever purchase again or even recommend to anyone.

Compared to a natural human diet, modern western diets tend to be sugar- and salt-rich to make the food more addictive and tasty. This product is particularly useful for maintaining good, balanced digestive function especially if you sometimes have to eat on-the-run and don't have the time to prepare `proper food,' and most especially if you have any kind of impaired liver function.
Swedish bitters are also claimed by sufferers to help with all kinds of other conditions, from fibromyalgia to viral illnesses to acne. The manufacturer however promotes no such claims, and it's best to consult with your doctor or herbalist prior to having high cure-expectations; though it needs to be emphasised that the product is safe with no cautions or counter-indications, so swallowing the liquid poses no health risk.
The squared-off bottle is of thick brown glass, with a plastic screw-top. It's very secure and robust. You only need a teaspoonful at a time and don't usually need to take it every day, so the content can last some weeks. The elixir itself is watery in consistency, with a pale brown color.

The way they are shaped they offer a nice comfort when holding them in between your fingers. I have had clippers before that was somewhat uncomfortable leaving you with a awkward feeling trying to clip your nails properly.
They are easy to use, you don't have to press down on them real hard to get them to clip your nails just gently press and they cut your nails effortlessly without leaving jagged edges to have to go back and clip.
They are made of stainless steel and seem to be constructed good and solid. Overall these are a really nice set and well worth what they are being offered at.

Disregard the \"acupressure\" attachments, they are static and likely only work if you move your feet across them.
But.
I don't agree with the complaints about the bubble production or massage features. Is it like soaking your feet in a hot tub? No. Is it like getting your feet rubbed by a masseuse/masseur? No.

One of the biggest advantages of a heated eyelash curler is its speed and efficiency. With a traditional curler, you may have to spend several minutes carefully curling each lash, but with a heated curler, you can achieve the same effect in just a few seconds. This is especially beneficial for those who are short on time or who have trouble using traditional curlers.
Another advantage of a heated eyelash curler is that it can help to enhance the natural shape of your lashes.

One is the Grit Guard, probably the most common guard out there in while it is a nice design I quickly became tired with putting my arm to the very bottom of the wash bucket to scrub my lambswool mitt and soaking my arm up to my elbow with each rinse.
The Dirt Dropper has the benefit of the Grit Guard while offering another benefit-
a side "washboard to scrub the dirt out of your mitt with a bottom guard to keep the dirt where it belongs, in the bottom of your wash bucket.It is made of much thicker plastic than the Grit Guard and has a stainless steel screw to secure it to the side of your wash bucket so even with aggressive scrubbing it stays in place.
Why only 4 out of 5 stars?

-Amazing shine, looks like another layer of clear coat was applied, very deep and reflective
-Very easy to use
-No fillers, what you see is what you get, it won't look worse after a rain/wash
Cons:
-While you could use it by hand, you will get best results using a random orbital polisher with a white polishing pad. For hand use, there are much better products, ColorX or Duragloss 101 come to mind
-Not very durable, water beading stops within a month or so
After reading my review here, on paper it looks like this isn't a great product. What does shine is the results. If you want quick results with minimal effort, this is a great AIO (All in One). However machine use is a necessity and durability is rather poor.", "label": 1}

Five E. faecium strains (MZF1, MZF2, MZF3, MZF4, and MZF5) were selected and further assessed for their probiotic properties. They were found to be resistant to the physiological concentrations of bile salts, and the harsh conditions of the gastrointestinal tract, and showed autoaggregation and adhesion ability.

I tried purchasing something else when this box ran out, Skin-TacTM Adhesive wipe, and it was far too sticky, left residue on my skin around the equipment and required some additional non-sticking solutions to get all of the wipe off which has not happened with the Bard!

The truth is in the PVC piping they use, and it's REALLY dense. Compared to the trigger point, this thing has some heft for sure. It's still extremely portable though and is definitely not too heavy to carry (they even include a nice carrying bag, but the quality of the bag was sub-par, there's already a rip occurring near the straps).

The trigger point does give adequate massages as well, but if you really want to get DEEP, this roller is the way to go.

I looked at several reviews for other inserts, but settled on this mainly because it didn't seem (according to reviews) to be as slick on the bottom as others. Though we've not tried other tubs, I do appreciate the ridges on the bottom that help keep a wiggly baby and curious toddler from slipping and possibly going under water. The ridges have allowed him to catch himself if he slips.
This fits nicely into the tub - a tight squeeze in my tub, but that keeps it from moving around. The sides also create a bit of a bumper for baby to hold. My son is a tall almost 2 year old and still fits very easily with his legs stretched out. We did have one that sprung a leak and if I'd kept the repair kit that comes with the tub, we would have been fine (unfortunately, it was lost in the abyss). We did, however, like it enough to replace the first with exactly the same model. I'd recommend it!", "label": 1}

So, I had to replace it. My trimer is the BT7215. The replacement head has the plastic support with the two tabs but the cutting blades are not the same. Looking closely you can see that the top blade serrated edge is not as deep as the original. As a result, when inserted into the trimmer - they just don't trim, cut or anything. So the cutting blade switch... Again, should have read the reviews! I replaced both blades using the top tork screws. Not easy but can be done. Once back together I tried it again. The adjustable trimmer guide doesn't seem to work quite right. Its working but not like it used to. Is it working better than when I was using it with the cutter head resting on just the one tab? No, not really. Bottom line...its time to buy a new vacuum trimmer. And that is my recommendation. Use the money for this and put it to a new trimmer. And let Philips know about this problem maybe they'll give a discount.", "label": 0}

Even though I have been brushing at night, which I didn't use to do every night I still believe the decrease in my pockets and the need for only a regular cleaning instead of deep cleaning is due to this product. I've tried different products that didn't work so I'm glad to have found this product there is nothing like a healthy mouth , also my gums use to bleed a lot, now I have minimal to no bleeding even when I got my cleaning the hygienist said it was good that I had no bleeding gums which normally they would bleed bad during a cleaning. A deep cleaning isn't covered under my dental insurance, so this product not only reduced the plaque build up and bleeding gums but it saved me money because a regular cleaning is free of charge thru my insurance :)", "label": 1}

When you open up the box, everything is presented nicely. I say all of this, because I do feel like packaging and presentation are important. A company isn't going to waste time and money to put a cheap product into a really nice box. Plus, it would make an excellent gift.
Now, getting to the hair dryer. This is not like any other hair dryer I've ever used before. It's very light and compact, making it easy for my permanently injured shoulder to use. It will also be small enough to easily pack for vacation. The air was powerful, although it didn't heat up as much as my current hair dryer. I'm not going to count off for this though, because it's honestly probably better for my hair. It's also pretty quiet compared to most I've used. I do not like that the air inlet is on the handle instead of the back of the dryer; I have to be conscious of where I'm holding it.
So to sum it all up..
Pros
Nice presentation
Light weight
Quiet
Powerful
Compact
Cons
Hottest heat setting isn't very hot
The air inlet is on the handle", "label": 1}

I actually use my big shaver above and below my lips however it leaves little patches cause i can't seem to hit them from the right angel with the head of it being so big, afterwards I know use this to get the last few spots. As for the other 2 attachments, I have a really nice hair shaving kit I use for those kinds of things but i did try these for the hell of it and they both worked Great! I really only bought this for the nose trimmer but now I really like using the mini shaver to get those few spots the big one won't so I'm very happy with this product and would recommend it to anyone looking for one of these kits that actually does what it's supposed to and seems to be well made!", "label": 1}

This might be of use to someone who is not already injured or a child, but I spent 20 minutes of up and down and all over the room trying to get just the lining closed. I ended up getting it as closed as possible, with the rough side of the velcro rubbing against my leg. The compression straps were self explanatory, but then the strap around the top, again going into a loop at the back of the ankle, was hard to get hooked, then just forced the rough Velcro against my ankle again. Because of the back closure, I think struggled to get it off so the velcro would stop tearing at my skin.
My injured ankle now hurts more than it did before I started, and I now have a raw spot on the back of my ankle.
I\u2019ve worn many ankle braces in my life, and the design of this brace makes no sense. It\u2019s difficult to put on because of this awkward design (it really requires two people). My ankle isn\u2019t that big, it may be swollen a bit, but that shouldn\u2019t have prevented a well designed brace from going on it.
We will be returning this brace and continuing the search for an appropriate brace.", "label": 0}

They vary a little in intensity but i can feel them all very well when i have it securely wrapped around my waist. The warmth feels great and it heats up quickly. Everything I loved about the first model is still here. There are 3 heat options and I usually use the hottest for a few minutes before turning it down because it gets downright hot! There is also an extra strap to accommodate a bunch of sizes and I appreciate that as I'm a thick women. It lasts for a couple of hours with a fully charged battery.

Chaga absorbs the radiation we're exposed to and is an anti-mutagen so it helps protect your DNA from cell phones, WiFi. Etc.
I have only been using it for about three weeks and am already seeing results. You do have to take it two or three times a day for the first month of use because chaga is cumulative and it takes some time for the goods inside to build up and produce results.
I read that you are not supposed to miss doses in the beginning as it could lower effectiveness but I went on a vacation and had to cut down to once a day for a few days as well as miss one dayin the second week. I just took higher doses to make up for it.
Its easy to add to tea, which is what ice been doing, and it can also be used topically as a better version of vitamin c serum to clear up the skin. It also leaves a tint to give you a gentle sunkissrd tan look.
The dual tincture means that you are sure to get all the chaga benefits and not just half of them, as if from a tea.

The foot massager offers different many different options for me to adjust to my own liking. There are four pressure levels, focal point on the foot (toe, arch, sole), speed, and direction. All of these options allowed me to customize my massage.

Clearly I needed something better.
I ordered this prenatal cradle and had a lot of relief immediately. It has seriously improved my lower and upper back pain and abdominal strain. I find it easier to lift and carry things and just getting up off the couch is easier.
The \"adjustablility\" of this model was one of the reasons I bought it and I have to say, its nothing to write home about (3 sets of hooks that are pretty widely spaced) but better than nothing. The company says this will fit 150 - 220 lbs. I am 156 lbs and found I have to wear it on the middle set of hooks to avoid uncomfortable compression but maybe thats just how I'm carrying.

Vegetable glycerin metabolizes differently than sugar and is used in low carbohydrate foods for sweetness and moisture. Unlike sugar, glycerin does not contribute to tooth decay.
Many household products, including lotions, shampoo, and toothpaste, contain vegetable glycerin. Glycerin is added to these products because it is a humectant; a substance that attracts moisture to the skin. In the cosmetic world, this has two practical applications. First, glycerin leaves your skin hydrated. Glycerin soap, for example, is popular for that very reason. Second, for cosmetic products that deliver an active ingredient, a humectant can increase the solubility of the active ingredient, making it more easily absorbed by the skin.

It is very light buy very sturdy. First of all, the trigger release is a HUGE improvement on the stupid buttons that are on most walkers. No more struggling to fold it- this is a simple - squeeze the handles and fold. Anyone who struggled with this awful buttons knows what I mean. The second wonderful thing is the step handle design. If the user is sitting with walker in front, the lower grip can be used first to get up. It can also be used on the toilet. The long crossbar fits nicely behind the toilet seats from Kohler, American Standard and another no-name comfort height toilet seat. When rising from the toilet, the walker acts like arms on a chair and helps even the most unsteady person stand up. Two of these walkers are left at the toilet all the time. The 3rd user brings it with her in case she has to use an unfamiliar bathroom. Great product - I highly recommend you buy this walker for anyone having trouble rising or for anyone whose task is to fold a walker often.", "label": 1}

I was going to take the problem to my computer guy, but that would have cost me another $50+. So I am on my way to UPS to return it. I am not sure about its accuracy either. It is a much different weight for me than my doctor's office scale. I just purchased an EatSmart scale that does body composition for less than $30. I will have to log the data into Fitbit, but it is worth it. The EatSmart scale is a Prime Best Seller. I do not recommend you buy the Aria. Too much hassle and expense.", "label": 0}

I have tried AHCC twice and both too had great results.
First time was many years ago. i had a wart on back of my hand. After several weeks, the wart \"bloomed\" out, looking like it was quickly growing. Very gross. It was also itching like crazy. Using a paper towel, i rubbed at it, and the entire wart just came off in the paper towel!
I had another on my shoulder that i never knew about, i only noticed it after it too suddenly sprouted, itched, and then was easily wiped away.
This last time, i had another appear on my thumb. I tried the ahcc again after freezing the wart didn't work.
I had similar successful results. The one on the thumb, and then one on my shoulder and chest. First it would sprout, then itch, then would be easily wiped away.

Swanson is always top shelf and they always come sealed, undamaged, and with a good expiration date. I have never had a bad reaction from these. White peony root is one of the very few known natural products that increase aromatase activity. It is highly estrogenic and very strong. It has a 60% aromatase conversion. The other few known natural substances are dangerous if large amounts are taken. So basically what happens is the white peony root will take some of the the testosterone that is in men and women ( women do have it and too much inhibits breast growth) and coverts it meaning changes it to estrogen that is usable for many things like breast growth. So even if you are a male this will convert testosterone in to estrogen. If you are looking to try to increase your breast size this is a must take in my opinion. It cleans up what does not need to be there for maximum breast growth. This is really the basic short description of what all is involved and as you could imagine it becomes complicated quickly.

The variety isn't spectacular and it is hard to tell which straws are what flavor because some flavors have the same color. Like for example, Cotton candy and birthday cake are the same color. The flavors on the package are also different than the one's listed in the title or the description, but this isn't an issue for me. There was another review that mentioned that the flavor lasts 2 sips. If you drink through the straw like you would any other, this is accurate. If you suck through the straw slower, you will get flavor with every sip. Doing this allows the beads to sit in the milk longer as you drink it which would add more flavor. Overall I do like these straws and I will continue to buy them as long as I'm still using them. I may buy from the company's website instead though. I only recieved 47 straws in the package but errors like this are too be expected when it comes to factory line packaging. So far I've had 2 and I suspect one of them was cinnamon roll.

It also comes with a wall and car chargers. The massager can go go either clockwise or counterclockwise motions and with or without heat.
Now for some negatives, the button to change the rotation is on the part of the unit that you are leaning on for the massage. Second is that if you have a not as fat back, the massage can actually hurt a little - I think this is due to the unit being a harder plastic, not their fault just a warning. And the last is that the in order to use it on smaller areas, you have to actually change the orientation of the unit since the massage heads are a little too far apart.
Overall, this is a great little massage unit for your back as long as you have enough fat on your back or you don\u2019t lean against it with a lot of pressure.

HOW THIS COMES
This comes in a glass jar and is well packed.
FULL?
The jar in the photo was taken after I only took two scoops of product. The fill line is about where the top of the yellow label is. It really should be a bit fuller than it was.
EASY TO TAKE?
This is not difficult to take. It is warm water to activate and then add cool water to drink it.
FLAVOR?
I did not find the flavor offensive. Some of the magnesium drinks have lots of stevia which makes me gag. This one was not like that for me at all. It is actually pleasant to take uncluttered with sweetners.
DOES IT HELP
This is really helpful to relax me at night.

This powder is pleasant to take. It is not cluttered with stevia or other additives.

3D Face Bracket \u2013 Really small. Might work best for kids. Depends upon the size of your face. They are Made in China and I can only assume they are made for smaller faces. But it can also depends upon the type of mask you\u2019re wearing if you\u2019ll be able to use them. They measure 4\u201d across by 3.25\u201d tall.
Extenders \u2013 5.5\u201d long X .75\u201d wide. These are made of hard plastic. You\u2019ll find some of soft silicone. . . but these are hard plastic.
Lanyards \u2013 Again. . \u201cOdd\u201d that there are only two. They measure 13.5\u201d long. For kids and smaller necks. The latches on the end are plastic and quite challenging to open.
When you add 50+12+2 = 64. . . and at the current price of sixteen bucks. . . That comes out to .25 cents per-piece, which is really not bad at all. One of the more affordable such items I\u2019ve seen.

I found I don't like it super tight since that makes it a bit uncomfortable on the eyes especially if you end up opening your eyes at one point while wearing the mask.
The mask is soft so if you do open your eyes at some point your eye lashes will touch the mask, that is a tad annoying but not a deal breaker since you should be sleeping anyways. The earmuffs are pretty noise insulating but do not block out all noise. But I found they do a pretty good job. For those who like to sleep on the side these are soft and comfortable enough to do so, although for an entire night on the same side I don't think it is optimal. I move around from the sides to back a bit so this worked well for me.
They are pretty well made in my eyes so they should last a good amount of time. I think the thing that will probably go first are the straps that hold everything together.

Sure they're not as cute as the Munchkin brand and they're slightly smaller, but they fit our changing table perfectly and they're just as absorbent. They're also both on the thin side; however, these pads do have a tissue feel so the Munchkin brand is possibly a more durable option especially when you're out somewhere. Just something to consider. For me, I only need these for my changing table.
Overall I'm happy I was able to find a cheaper alternative that meets my needs.", "label": 1}

The first day, I used it right out of the box, felt cold and the material is very soft and comfortable, easy to put on and take off, the compression felt good on my head, made me feel relaxed. The second day I used it after leaving it in the fridge for 2 hours, made me feel even more relaxed and sleepy. The headaches and migraines aren't gone unfortunately, but just that compression and relaxation feeling is worth having it on for me and I think I am going to use it every night in bed.
Things that I didn't like though is that it is Hard to keep in place if you wear glasses and you are using it during the day. It also doesn't have a removable cover, so I am not sure if it can be washed as it is.

I keep the ear piece part on his glasses at all times now, because they really help his glasses fit comfortably. I don't even use the strap part anymore when he plays soccer, I find that moving up the ear pieces to be a little tighter keeps his glass in place just fine.

The other kind I was using you had to use before and after and it did not curl as even as this one. This one has what I call a \"sweet spot\"... a time after turning it on and before it shuts off on it's own where it is perfect for curling. If you don't let it heat up long enough you don't get as good of a curl. You push and hold to turn it on and get a green light, push one more time and you get a blue light, which is the hotter setting. It stays on what I think is quite a while. A lot longer than the wand type I've been using. This one is much easier to use than you would think. It's a little bulky shaped but easy to use and we'll worth the price.

Of course, your best bet is to eat the whole seed, not this extracted oil. The seed has lots of fiber, phytonutrients, zinc and magnesium. Nevertheless, whatever is in pumpkin seeds that heals the urinary track, and prostate, is present in the oil as well. I have a neighbor who has serious problems with his urinary track, to the point where he was barely able to urinate. He was recommended to eat lots of pumpkin and sunflower seeds, and the problem went away. I haven't had any problems either since taking the seeds. (I had bladder cancer, so I'm sort of uptight about my urinary track.) The bottle recommends taking four capsules a day. They're a bit large, but its oil inside of a gelatin cap, so at least its not a solid pill. I suppose if you needed to, you could break open the pill, and pour the oil onto something like a piece of bread. In central Europe, they use pumpkin seed oil on vanilla ice cream, to make a desert. The deal is this---eat lots of pumpkin seeds, and if you don't have the time or desire for that, take pumpkin seed oil, for preventative medicine.

If the paint on a wall was one coat or a matte finish, an extremely gentle hand and lots of water in the "eraser" was a must, but always did the trick. Unfortunately, my last purchased box proved this product has been completely revamped. I used a newly purchased MagicEraser on an easy job - a mark on a smooth tile - and it didn't budge. It didn't even lighten. Yet, the Eraser began to completely crumble with barely any pressure. I grabbed another box in case it was a fluke, and the same thing occurred. A soft sponge with some Dawn (and no elbow grease) removed the mark with ease. Sadly, nothing now works on the tougher marks. Why did the manufacturer change a good thing?

The expiration date is about 20 months out from when I received the product, however, I'd expect you'll have no problem using the product past that date.

The large opening on each container has its plusses and minuses -- great if you need a lot else when sticking your fingers in, otherwise, they'll get quite greasy fast. A squeeze bottle format is sometimes handier. I've lately been putting the jelly on my wrists during our \"cold\" California winters to keep them from cracking and drying out, much like I use a lip balm on my mouth during these days, and this product fits the bill.

Pros -
Once these sit out for a few minutes, they loosen up, and become nice and flexible.
They stay cold for a long time.
They have a cold/warm option, but I've only used the cold.
They seem well made, with thick outer plastic and plenty of 'filling'.
The price is right! Best value, I'd say.
Cons-
Once frozen, you have to leave this sit out for a bit to become flexible.
They're not quite the right size. They need to be a few inches longer, especially to go around the neck, and an inch or so narrower.
No sleeve to put them in. It would have been nice, but for the price It's understandable.
Bottom line. They're a good value for the price, and length of time they stay cold. I'll use them until I can find a lighter weight one like it, that's a little a few inches longer.
They're bulky large size makes them too heavy for the neck and shoulders which is a real disappointment.", "label": 1}

The general range of cost for similar rose quartz gua sha is $10 - $17 (with some actually over $20; and occasionally you may find a special discount for $9). So, at the current cost of $10, this product is very competitively priced. It's a very good value, bargain.
The quality of the rose quartz, the excellent manufacture and bargain/value delivers a 4.75 star rating, with a very high level recommendation.", "label": 1}

Problem here is the pricing which I should have checked instead of assuming the doctor would be more expensive where the office charge for a bottle works out to $1.75 an oz. If you look at the product on Amazon they claim that the larger bottle costs $1.60 an oz (as of this date). I did not spend the 30sec doing the math but after my product arrived I realized that the amount is about $2.46 and ounce. MISLEADING TO THE MAX.
Fortunately I bought the smaller bottle, which my doctor does not stock, to see if I like the new way of delivery. I probably will stick with it because it does last longer and thus is more economical than the pads. Not really a down side as I view it.", "label": 0}

The only other issue seemed to be soft metal.... I used a rock to hit the hilt and it easily smoothed out, wiped off the black color, and warped the metal.

1) The applicator
My glasses are metal frames and the nosepads are pretty close together. This makes it impossible to apply the wax without using an extra tool (Qtip, fingertip,...). The tube is just way too wide to fit between the nosepads.
2) It works, but for a short time.
My glasses are heavy, because i need strong, thick lenses (-6.50). When I apply the wax I don't have to push my glasses up as often as without the wax, but the effect only lasts half an hour or so and then I have to re-apply.
The main ingredient in the product is simple beeswax, so the heat of your skin melts the wax and when the wax absorbs in your skin the glasses start sliding down again. I also have very oily skin, maybe that makes a difference as well. In any case, I have to re-apply so much and often that there's no way this tube will last for 6 months, like the description claims.

Doing it with a mobile phone worked, and that was a one-time process, so now it's ok.
If you're curious, the reason the setup process is so fidgety is that the scale is trying to discover which wireless network to connect to (yours or your neighbor's). It does this through a bit of a trick: the scale temporarily acts as a wi-fi base station, and the configuration program on your desktop machine attempts to drop the connection to your regular wi-fi, connect to the scale instead, communicate your usual wi-fi connection information to the scale, and then switch both your desktop computer and the scale to use your regular wi-fi again. Neat trick if it works, but there are lots of chances for things to go wrong, and not much you can do to trouble-shoot.

I ordered medium, since my hands measure 7\" long and my palms are 3\" across. They fit perfectly and I love the arm length. It keeps the water out as long as you wear them with sleeves. Without sleeves water can splash and drip inside or the end of the glove can rest on the side of the sink and pick up water due to the wide opening, but that's not a big issue to me.
The one thing I consider a slight drawback, is that your hands can feel the heat of really hot water, which I use to wash my dishes. That isn't a huge bother to me because I'm use to putting my hands in hot water, but I bought cotton glove liners for my disposable nitrile gloves and I can use those in these.

A little background on said humidor, it's a large glass-top rosewood Savoy that has never kept a decent humidity level even with a large Diamond Crown humidifier which was empty every other week for seven+ years, and I'd seasoned it well over a dozen times; approximately a year and a half ago I had pulled the DC from the humidor and plied it with crystal jars and humisticks. They've been fluctuating the humidity between 63-78%... Not ideal at all; however after the short prep time of thirty seconds with the \"nano-pearls\" that are in all the Cigar Mechanic systems, that one pouch inside of a 100-150ct humidor even with the all those crystal systems has systematically isolated and regulated the humidity at a steady 72%. I think I'll be snagging at least two-dozen or so more of these bags for the rest of my humidors.

My only problems is that its not very consistent with curls, and it jams. The beeps tell you when to let go of your hair, but the curls aren't always the same shape. Sometimes they are extremely curly and sometimes they are wavy- even though you have it on the same setting and the same temp. I tried changing temp to see if higher or lower who get better curls, no such thing. Also even though you brush you sections out and make them as small as possible, it can still jam in the curler. Which can be very frightening and can take a while to get un-stuck. I've had it happen 5 times in the 4 times I've used it. One of those 5 times it got jammed, my hair was stuck in the curler for a while as I tried to gently pull it out. I almost had to cut it out.

I also read one reviewer state it felt like she was jus wiping it around, but foundation shouldn't be wiped; it should be dabbed.

You need a provided remote control to work the main unit. The main unit only has power on/off button. You can't work directly from the main unit. The remote control has 4 sections - Massaging Mode(1-9), Intense(1-50), Heating(1-3), & Time(10-30). It is very straight forward. You don't need a manual to see how it works.
When the charging is completed, the side light turns from red to blue - the side with company logo.
I've used the electrode massager before, so I'm kind of used to the electronic pulse.
I use this unit with anywhere between 30 to 50 intense.
However, if you are new to this type of massager, I suggest you to start with low intense first & then increase as you feel comfortable with the electronic pulse.
I especially like the heating option. It's not make your skin too hot. It's like wearing a warm towel.

You put the water in through the top and as it heats, it bubbles and about 5 minutes later the steam comes out and is ready to use. I didn't have any hot water drippage thankfully.
I did use both the vapor and the ozone options at the same time. I noticed with the ozone option, more steam came out.
I didn't let the water run all the way out on my first trial as I was trying it out and I do admit you will need space to not only put it away somewhere but to cool. Naturally, the water was boiling in order to create the steam, so therefore, it takes some time to cool completely.

The problem with these are two-fold. One, you must ensure your hands and ears are COMPLETELY oil-free. If not, they will almost immediately lose their seal. Instead of using my go-to Dove unscented, I have to wash my ears with Dr. Bronner's pure castile soap to remove every trace of body oil.
The second issue is that, as soon as you have them fitted as recommeneded, they begin reshaping to their original form of a cylinder. What I've found is that they can more easily become dislodged if you're like me, a side sleeper, and have your hands under or near your face and ears.

1.6 oz on digital scale.
Comes with nice little soft pouch to protect it a bit, will fit in your pocket or purse without problem.
But should come with a wrist or neck strap in my opinion as the conditions it will be used under could promote dropping it.
Seems to work just fine and paired up via bluetooth without any trouble, iPad / iPhone app does everything needed to \"analyze\" drinking trends over time... BUT
I do wish they would have made it with a readout right on the unit so it could be used as a quick check without the need to connect with bluetooth every time.
Also wish they would have/could have made it compatible with Android devices also... there are as many, if not more, Android owners/users as there are Apple these days I believe.
Don't see it mentioned but it does have rechargeable battery and USB cord to charge it with.
You do need to blow through it once a month even if you don't need it as you have to keep the collector moist so that it works next time. Company says the BACtrack should work and last for 5 years.
Will have to see how easy this is to use under actual conditions it is needed for. Will have to test it more over time to know.

The only downside is the packaging. It\u2019s a plastic bag with a stack of large square towels. That\u2019s it.

I used to be chronically tired and needed to nap at least once a day. Now, no more!
I love OptiMind and recommend it to all of my friends and family.
If you follow the link[...]
I tried the trial, no-risk, and even after two weeks I was already seeing benefits. OptiMind works better the longer you take it, and now that I've been using it for a few months, I don't think I'll ever look back. I consider it a part of my daily multivitamins, and if you need any evidence that it's not habit-forming, just take the example that sometimes, I forget to take it! The only bad part about that is then I'm not as \"sharp\" or energized, because I didn't get my OptiMind that day...but there are no \"withdrawal\" symptoms because it's not a habit-forming substance. OptiMind is a wonderful product for the modern age, and if you want to be more productive, more energized, and your brain at top performance, I highly recommend you try OptiMind now!", "label": 1}

As a long-time lap swimmer, I've used ear plugs for years. The ones I've used were similar to these. These are also silicone and are a bit longer and narrower. The \"handles\" on these are quite short, but adequate.
Recently, I've started using a snorkel. I like it. I didn't like the feeling of drawing water into my nose. I needed a solution and found this set of nose clip and ear plugs. It really works!
I'm not sure if this is a Childs' Size set or Adult Size, but the earplugs fit great and I'm a 62 year old male. The nose clip does fit but is really tight and pinches. I like that it doesn't let water in, but I wish it wasn't so tight. It is really a firm, powerful pinching device with two, small silicone pads to distribute the pressure for placement just below the bridge of your nose.
Otherwise, a nice set in a reusable, easy to open plastic case for storage.
These are pretty pricey, even though the seller dropped the price by a dollar. Since shipping is included with most orders (above $25) then the seller is trying to recoup that, perhaps.

Oral B electric toothbrushes are small circles, along with some of the tools dentists use, so it's not like it's a bad thing, but different and not the same. When I get off brand stuff I usually expect it to be a replica of the original, so it just threw me off, but it's not a big deal. An issue I had, however, is that the bristles are firmer. For my husband, well, he likes that, but right now while pregnant my gums are weak and sensitive, so it doesn't feel so good all the time. If your teeth are healthy and strong, then this is perfect since you will probably notice no difference and get them cheaper, because let's face it, these replacement heads get really pricy. But if you have sensitive teeth like me, it might not feel very nice to brush with, but with the savings, I still consider ordering them again, and hopefully after this baby my gums will be back to normal. The heads fit on the toothbrush very nicely, and don't come off, so they are a perfect fit. They are a little smaller, but that doesn't really matter because it does allow you to reach more places, and the turn off for me, they are a little firmer which is not good for a super sensitive mouth, but maybe it'll make my gums stronger? Anyways, for a normal mouth, definitely recommend this because the price is so much better than the originals, and they work.

I find it is way more effective in fighting illness than pharmaceuticals, and it doesn't have any negative side effects or kill off the \"good\" bacteria in my gut. Until now, I have been taking the herb in capsule form, so I was pleasantly surprised to find it in a powder instead.
Super Organics has made themselves a winner with this organic astragalus powder. It's non-GMO and doesn't contain any chemicals, additives or pesticides. It's just pure pulverized astragalus root packaged in a resealable bag.
To protect yourself during cold and flu season, or to help your body fight an infection you may already have, just add one scoop (about 1/2 teaspoon) of this powder to your favorite beverage or smoothie, and blend well. It doesn't add any noticeable change to the taste or texture of your drink, so long as it is thoroughly mixed in with a blender or shaker bottle.
While this is not as easy to take as a capsule, I do think it is absorbed faster. That means you are getting the healthy benefits right away. It's vegan, gluten-free and plant-based, so your body should not react negatively in any way--unlike antibiotics and other over-the-counter cold and flu remedies.

The brushes are obviously in a different pattern and possibly of different materials than OEM but I have no idea if this matters so I obviously cannot determine if the performance is the same, better or worse than OEM. My teeth feel the same with these as when using OEM.
In response to an answered question I am using one right now with a newer model that is not listed in terms of compatibility (the ExpertClean 7500 or HX9690). One difference seems to be that OEM brush heads have a microchip that is read by the toothbrush handle to determine suggested mode and to inform the user that the brush head should be replaced. To me, this really doesn\u2019t matter and not included the microchip undoubtedly results in a lower cost.
I did find that these brush heads fit a little too tight onto the shaft from the toothbrush handle. For cleaning and drying I like to remove the brush head each time and these take a bit more effort to remove. Since there is not any ribbing or roughing on the brush head I invariably end up using the brushes to help brace the hand when removing the brush head. I hope that the metal in the brush head is softer than that in the shaft of the handle to preclude wearing out the big ticket item.

The first thing you notice about this is that the cherry scent is really quite potent when you first apply it. To me, this was the greatest weak point as it smells not of the flesh of cherries, but of a pit which is going off a bit. The almond scent isn't present at all. However, the scent doesn't linger after application and you really only smell it when you first rub it in.
I used this as an all-over body lotion after showering given that it's economical and in a large bottle so I used it on my legs, arms, neck, and hands. I did find that it did a solid job keeping my legs from getting flaky, dry skin on them (which I'm prone to) as well as my arms. It didn't go the distance on my hands, but I do wash them a lot and wear rubber gloves about a dozen times a day (stripping them on and off dries out the skin). I don't think this is potent for hands, but it's certainly decent for more average use.
As someone else said, it's hard to get the top to pop up when you first open it (very hard). I guess this is supposed to help it not leak during shipping, but the truth is that mine leaked a little into the bag it was in anyway (I don't know how). The lotion goes on smoothly and isn't greasy. It absorbs well. For me, I found this to be a good \u201call around\u201d type of lotion.

These extenders are only 5.5\u201d long, and each extender has three notches on each side. The idea is to seat the ear loops into the notches to keep the mask on.

The battery life is excellent and the digital read out screen on it looks high end and an unexpected touch for the price. The shaver itself is good. I would not say it's great but given the price it's good. It takes several passes over the same area to get all the hair, no biggie but probably wouldn't be an issue with more expensive shavers.
The attachment system is great and is a breeze. Simply twist and lock and it changes from my most commonly used trimmers in seconds. The hair/beard trimmer without a guard only works ok, it does not shave very close to the skin and sometimes leaves stubborn sideburn hair. The nose hair trimmers work very well. This thing is also waterproof, which again given the price point is surprising.
Lastly the build quality is good. It is very quiet and I have had no issues with it's functionality yet.

It's created by a process that breaks the minerals down to picometer size (one trillionth of a meter) and concentrated to 60,000 ppm (parts per million) which is 20 times more concentrated than angstrom minerals which are 3,000 ppm. The minerals are almost completely absorbed in the face of maldigestion and/or malabsorption. Just a few parts per million (ppm) of a molecular mineral can do a better job than hundreds or thousands of milligrams of the same mineral in a non-picometer form. Dr. Dean was introduced picometer minerals from a veterinarian that found they are more effective than I.V. mineral replacement. Picometer minerals are small enough to enter your cells placing them where they are most needed. Our bodies cannot make minerals and food cannot be solely relied on for minerals due to depleted soils making us mineral deficient. Most mineral supplements are only 4 - 20% absorbed, which mostly refers to absorption in the blood and not into the cells.

I don't care for Dr. Bronner's shave soap as a standalone product, but in trying to finish off my tube discovered this trick and I believe it does help stabilize the Williams lather. I also think Williams benefits greatly from a stiffer boar brush. I've actually had great luck with some of my cheapest, stiffest Burma Shave brushes. Williams is affordable, doesn't irritate my skin, and does what I need it to. I go through this faster than a man would, so I'm not sure how long this 12 pack will last me, but I will be repurchasing whenever I run out.", "label": 1}

If you use it on a specific pimple, it *will* suck that one pimple BUT that may not be what you actually want.
I had one of those hard, red, not-quite-a-pimple yet - this sucked the clear puss and blood to the surface.... but the white pimple never surfaced like it normally would have. Typically, the actual whitehead would have surfaced in a day or two, I could have popped that, and it would have gone away in another day or so.
Something about using the suction, has left me with a hard spot where I used it on that pimple over two weeks later, long after the pimple has healed.
To be fair, I did try it on my blackheads (tip of my nose) to no effect.
I also tried it on my larger looking pores (forehead). The forehead I tried running the end of the suction device over my skin. I did wind up with skin cells and oil collected on the edge but I think this was more what was on the surface and would have been collected with a wash cloth. Or just scraping my fingernail on my forehead.
I was also left with spots of light bruises on my forehead despite being careful not to leave it in one place and to constantly keep it moving. It was not gone by the next morning.

Then lets talk about the accessories that are included. I have included photo so i wont list but every item is really good sturdy, durable and high quality. The charge is very fast. For example i didn't pre charge and cut my dog and it died and within 10 minutes od charge i was able to get another 30 minutes of continuous cutting from them. The noise reduction is very impressive. My yorkie is terrified of vaccuums, clippers, blenders etc. He sat completely still and didnt even require leashing to a fixed appliance. Excellent product and way worth it hands down in fact id pay more knowing the quality first hand. The only thing I will say somewhat critically is I definitely felt like with no guard they would have easily cut any size dog with any amount of haor or thickness however, with a guard they are more suitaboe for small brees dogs woth finer hair as I had to clear guard somewhat often and go over some areas repeatedly but nothing thst was time consuming or inconvenient. Very effortlessly and quickly. The upside to this though is that it made for less mess because it essentially caught the hair rather than falling beneath the area i was working in.", "label": 1}

But, oftentimes my wife goes to bed before I do, and I am still on my iPad in the other room. She complains to me that she can't fall asleep without the white noise. So I found this little white noise machine that checks all the boxes we have and more: it's small and very streamlined - doesn't take up a lot of space on the nightstand. It has both white noise (29 different sounds with volume control) and a ring of light with 7 different colors (plus a blended gradient display using all 7). The light is a really cool added feature that we don't get on the iPad - as a matter of fact, my wife also didn't like the fact that with the white noise app on the iPad, you also get a really bright picture that keeps her awake. The light on the Renpho machine is much more soothing & has an adjust button to make it as bright or dim as you would like (or you can turn off the light completely). The machine also has a timer with a choice of 30, 60 or 90 minute auto-off or you can leave it in continuous mode if you want the white noise & light setting all night. The only other feature that would be a good addition is if you could set the timer separately for the white noise vs. the light (we'd like the light for the first 30 minutes or so, and the white noise all night long for example). But that's a small quibble... We love our new white noise machine & highly recommend it!", "label": 1}

Water Color: These add great color to the water depending on the bath bomb. The colors are rich and pleasing to the eye. They don\u2019t stain the tub or washcloth.
Fragrance: Each bath bomb is a different scent. All of the ones I\u2019ve used so far have smelled very nice without being overpowering.
Moisturizing: These bath bombs left my skin feeling smooth and nourished. I could definitely feel the essential oils. Oh, so very nice.
Fizz: They had lots of fizz that lasted for a few minutes. I even got a bit of a bubble from them.
Clean Up: There\u2019s not a lot of clean up with these. They didn\u2019t leave the tub slick or slippery.
Aesthetics: This is a very beautiful set, suitable for gifting. The box is heavy with an elegant design. There is the issue of a typo on the front of the box and hopefully that will be corrected with their next box production. Each bath bomb is double wrapped. The outer layer is tissue paper with a sticker and the inner layer is the shrink wrapped plastic. The bath bombs themselves are swirled multi-colored.

Update: Am really impressed by how well this works on my bee stings.

The Pinnacle style was oddly shaped and made. It was rather wide due to added padding and material beyond the internal rigid support. The heel cup was wide and didn't provide a stable feel against supination (outward roll) like Sole inserts do, or allow my heel to feel securely nested in place -- almost like the insole wouldn't sit far enough back in my shoe. The padding and support were cosy, but not enough to override the negatives. I wish these had worked out.
These also appear to have been worn or tried previously. Will hope for a better result when I eventually manage to obtain the actual ProTech Full Length inserts I wanted.
If they offered more stability and allowed my heel to nest properly, I'd like these much more. Could be I need to try a larger size.

Other sellers have it for less than five bucks now, with free shipping. Yes, it cuts into the profits to ship \"free,\" but by taking away the option, you cut back the amount of business by driving people to more competitively priced sellers which are on the right side of the screen.

Putting these on is SO difficult. I have basically resorted to turning them inside out and placing my fingers in one at a time and pushing down the finger part until it's at my palm, then I am able to put the rest of the glove on.

They smell pretty strongly but I don't mind the smell. I don't recommend using lotion with these as the smell might make a nasty combination, also the texture of the glove seems like it would be messy with lotion.
I usually put these on when I get home from work and watch an episode of whatever we are watching. After an episode or 2, I take them off - leave them inside out for next time, and put them back in their little bag that they came in. Then, I wash my hands in lukewarm water and dry thoroughly.

This is a very useful product for the fashionista inside yourself or in your family. The item arrived in a very simple package. The package contained the wand, heat-resistant gloves with insulated tip, 2 curl clips and a user guide. The item is pretty lightweight making it extremely lightweight and easy to use for women of all age groups.
The wand has a tapered barrel that provides the use a choice of styling variations to generate either loose or tighter curls. This allows for a more natural-looking hair style. The fast heating PTC/ceramic coating heats up the wand pretty fast. It can heat up to 410 degrees in a minute. This enables you to get that perfect curly look in a jiffy. The wand has a high operating temperature range. The ceramic construction allows for a smooth operation without pulling the hair and yields superior results providing shiny, bouncy hair!
The wand is equally safe to sue with its in-built 30 min auto shut off function that helps avoid unwarranted incidents during its use. The unit has a rotatable power cord allowing easy maneuverability without tangling or twisting. The wand can be used globally due to its dual voltage input of 110 - 240V / AC. This is the perfect size wand for medium to long sized hair locks. The heal-proof glove prevents your fingers from accidental burns during its operation. The built-in temperature display is pretty helpful feature that helps take the guess work out of your curling-process keeping your hair and scalp safe at all times and also allowing you to increase/decrease the temperature to the desired level.

As an overall rating I think this is great because it gets to spots that you cannot reach yourself. Now while it is nice to have a fill blown massage chair that cannot reach your neck, this can and of course it doesnt take up the same space. So PRO 1. This is a single person usable device, meaning you dont need anyone else to hold it or position it. I was a little confused with the stirrups initially but as it turns out they are genius.. not only can you position the massager where you want it but you can control how hard the pressure is applied. PRO 2 it is composed of the traditional shiatsu rotating balls that we have all seen, they can go forward - backward or reverse direction and they heat up. Now the heat could be warmer, but thinking thru this if someone ever left this unattended it would not be hot enough to burn or scald so points here warm not hot - good. PRO 3 you can use this on just about any part of your body again you dont need someone to hold it to apply pressure so simple one person operation. The only CON that I can come up with is that the power cord could be a little longer -- this was simply solved by adding an extension cord. The unit comes with the neck unit as shown in the pictures, a power supply cord that detaches and a cigarette lighter plug cord which for the life of me I dont understand.

The base, which I think they call a handle, allows for easy removal, but also rests nicely between my cheeks when the plug is in. I tried plugs with round bases that didn't feel good at all. The silicone base on these is elongated and thin, but substantial enough to keep the plug from going inside.
Back to my original statement, the 3 is large! Please, work your way up to it! I have since ordered a Snug Plug 2 (1.2 inch diameter) and will be wearing that for several weeks before I use the 3 again. I am excited about the size of the 3 and I look forward to getting back to using it as soon as it feels appropriate.
Having now worn the Snug Plug 2 and 3, other than the obvious size difference, the only other real difference between the two is that I cannot feel the weights move around in the 2 like I could with the 3. It makes sense, given the smaller size of the 2. Otherwise, both feel fantastic inside.

If you are as desperate as we are to help your child with bedwetting, I would love to help advise. My daughter was diagnosed with an over-active bladder when she was about four years old. Potty training had been no problem, but then she began getting UTIs and had constant urgency. We took her to the Urodynamic Lab at Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital for months, where they monitored her using ultrasound - and it cost an arm and a leg and didn't seem to be going anywhere. She was on the same medication that older women with incontinence take - it was not making a difference. So, we've lived with it, keeping her in pullups overnight, and just trying to make her use the bathroom consistently during the day. She is a very happy, confident kid - she is 10 now, about to go to Middle School, and I feel that we have not done everything we can do to help her to control her bladder. So - two nights in, and she is getting up and using the bathroom when the alarm goes off. She does pee a bit, but I'm assuming this is going to improve as we continue to use the alarm, and perhaps the deep sleep she enjoys at night will become light enough so that she can get up instead of just letting the pee fly.

The price seemed almost too good to be true for the quality of what you're getting: A waterproof clipper with a premium ceramic blade. It even incorporates an adjustable blade gap--something a lot of grooming clippers don't include.
But this kit delivers.
How do they do it? How can they be selling a better quality clipper for less money? They don't load the kit down with accessories that look nice but that you'll probably never use. So, instead of a dozen length guides, you get four (2 x 2 dual size guides). You don't get interchangable heads that, honestly, rarely work well anyway. (Nose hair, foil shaver, etc--the ones you find in the more elaborate kits are mostly junk). You don't get a plastic stand/tray that will take up counterspace and offers no added value. You don't get multiple speeds on the clipper that you don't need and will never use.
Nope, what you get is the clipper, a USB charger cable, a cheap brush, some clipper oil, a comb and two dual-sided length guides. That's it. But that's probably all you need.
The clipper also comes in a retail box. So if this is for someone else, it's giftable.
The clipper works very well. A steal at the current price.
Let me note that this is a grooming clipper with a somewhat more narrow head. It's perfect for trimming a beard/sideburns/neck hair/body hair. If, however, you plan to actually cut your head of hair, you probably want to look to clippers with wider heads.", "label": 1}

When he travels, he needs to take his medication with him. I thought this would be perfect. It is definitely a great little case for the fact that it can hold so much, it is color coded, it has 4 compartments for each of the 7 days labeled (Morn, Noon, Eve, Bed) and that is great ,however after just a few uses the printing is coming off. I do think that it is a little rough sliding the clear plastic cover open to get meds out of a particular compartment (or add meds), the plastic is rather thin, it tends to get stuck, and feels like it could break eventually. If you do not need one of the medications in the middle, and you have to slide the clear plastic lid open past morn to get to \"noon\" , if there are meds in the morning part, and you have to dump meds out, they all fall out. I wish the lid had individual compartment lids. Otherwise, the case is good and can be a great case for the right person. I wish they would upgrade it a little by making a few adjustments. Better plastic on the lids would help, having lids for each compartment (Morn, Noon, Eve, Bed) even if it is just a lid to lift up, and the ability to label the compartments would be nice! Even if it just included stickers to label them. Overall, it is decent and my fiance is getting a lot of use out of it. Thank you.

Before I got this, I had a Golden Scooter, same size, and had so many service calls I eventually got a new one. Same story on the second Golden. So glad I switched to Pride Go-Go.
Arrived quickly, little bit of assembly, no problem. Runs well and dependably.
Carefully look at the dimensions, turning radius, and ground clearance to see if it will work for you. All these dimensions are available. I called customer service at this company and was told this scooter is not recommended for use in a home, since it does not have a very tight turning radius. (It can't turn the same tight corners an electric wheelchair can). My home was built in the 40's and is not ADA compliant. The interior door widths vary from 28.5\" to just 26.75\" wide. The main hallway is only 36\" wide. As a result, I have some limitations to the way I drive the scooter in and out of some rooms in my house. For example, I have one doorway I can only get into by making a right angle. So I have to approach that door with the door on my right side.(That requires that I turn around in another room if I am coming from the opposite way.) I was aware of the limits and that was ok with me. It would work easily if you want to use it in newer homes, apartments, commercial businesses, etc. Or if you use it to help sometimes and you walk in tight spots. Take care to determine if these specification will work where you want to use it.
For me it works great and I appreciate how reliable it is.", "label": 1}

He was diagnosed May 26, 2019. The oncologist's prognosis, after the ultrasound and biospy, was a month to live without chemo and a few months with. I didn't want to go down the chemo or steroid route. So I started digging for other possibilities.
I purchased this infrared device after reading NIH studies showing that Infrared looks like a promising tool for mice with cancer.
Dr Turchin has been amazing in communicating with me as I navigate through all these unknown waters. He has been so helpful.
David is at 50 days post diagnosis and is continuing to do well without chemo, steroids, or any other drugs. According to the prognosis, he should have died 20 days ago, but here he is with good quality of life. He gets a weekly B12 shot, daily infrared, and daily acupressure, and fresh food without alot of carbs (which promote cancer in cats).
His vet did new bloodwork four days ago and the results just returned. His liver enzymes are almost in the normal range now and everything else looks good. This is a great improvement from May ... and there is no medicine to thank for this because we arent using any. Think about that ... it is exactly the opposite of what it \"should be\" happening. I'm so thrilled with this outcome.
I believe that this device is contributing to David's quality of life and am so grateful for it. I cannot fully replicate the NIH study on mice with David, but I would like to believe that it may be helping to kill his cancer cells slowly as well.

I have flat iron my hair multiple times a day for years. I've always wanted that straight finished look. I have heat damage my hair and had to spend so much money on treatments to keep my hair looking healthy. With this brush you will straighten your hair healthy! It is so much easier than flat ironing as well, all you do is brush through your hair and your hair will become straight, shiny, and healthy. You will get compliments on your hair when you use this brush.
You can also use products such as Argan oil which of course is fantastic for your hair so also give you some extra protection and shine. But you do not need anything with this you can just brush it and go. You will spend for less time using this to get beautiful straight hair than you would if you were to whip out the good old traditional flat iron.
I was lucky enough to receive a discount on this item in return for my honest review. This is completely my non biased review and my own opinion of this product after trying it myself. I was not obligated to leave a positive or negative review, just my own honest opinion.

However, this very expensive AutoBrush package doesn\u2019t contain the very item that allows you to do what is intended, namely, the brush head (see my photo). The question should be, if you\u2019re selling a toothbrush, can you still call it that if you don\u2019t actually include the brush head?
What you\u2019re paying for is the body of the toothbrush, the charger, the charging adaptor, and its cable. The side of the box says that the brush heads are not included. However, the listing says otherwise - \u201cBrush Head Included\u201d. But it\u2019s not. Not only that but you can\u2019t even buy the brush head on Amazon! You have to go do that on their website directly. They\u2019re $10 each.
Not having the brush heads means that I can\u2019t really test the efficacy of the brush and their stated claim that it works better than normal brushing. But, after turning on the unit and grabbing the metal prong where it connects with the brush head to feel the vibration, I have to say that it feels extraordinarily weak. I fail to see how these micro-vibrations will do anything to remove plaque. The power put out by Oral-B or Sonicare is 10 times stronger.
In summary, this all seems \u201ctoo good to be true\u201d. First, they don\u2019t include a brush head in their kit \u2013 even though they say that they do. Then, the weak vibrations from the motorized body feel like my iPhone vibrations. How can that possibly clean your teeth?!", "label": 0}

At her work she has to do some occasional lifting. I looked around and there are braces where you can spend hundreds - but if you can find something that works for less then why not give it a go? So this one looked like it might work - maybe. I ordered one based on her waist - according to the instructions on Amazon. She's about 30-inch waist (not hips). When it arrived she put it on - it fit - sort of. It's sized smaller than it states on the Amazon site. But I did notice her standing with better posture. She tried it for two days and decided she didn't like it.
This brace comes with 2 coated-metal (I don't know what they're made from - either thin steel or aluminum) flat bars - you can see that in the Amazon photo (the lighter color black areas) which provide some mid back (thoracic) support. The two arm straps wrap around the shoulders, across the back, to the opposite waist. The instructions say to wrap it inside the back support but that doesn't work very well. Therefore wrap it around the outside of the brace. The lower brace is for lumbar support. Everything attached by velcro.
I would wear it for a day or two or three to see how (or if) it works for you. And remember to squat when lifting - like a baseball catcher - and use your powerful legs instead of your weak back. Because you're wearing a brace doesn't give you the excuse that you can do things carelessly and get away with it.

As I unboxed the Therapist's Choice\u00ae bolster, my initial impression was it was designed for physical therapy and not well suited for sleep. Nevertheless, I gave it a go that night. After about one hour my legs were uncomfortable, so I returned to a pillow for elevation.
I liked the firm support but the sharp peak was pressing into the back of my knees. I decided to modify the bolster to better suit my application.
The vinyl cover was unzipped and with careful pressure, the foam interior was removed. An electric carving knife proved to be the perfect tool for the modification. Initially I tried one inch off the peak and and gave it a test nap on the bed. It was much better so went one complete night with it elevating my knees.
This time, I went four hours before waking up with discomfort.
The following evening, I carved an additional inch off the peak and this seems to be ideal. Firm but gentle support, suitable elevation, and a complete night's rest. I woke up with no back pain so reinstalled the vinyl cover and zipped it up. The small plastic zipper balked at first, but finally slid into position. The cover slides over sheets but my bent legs locked it into position as I slept on my back.
In summary, this bolster is clearly a Therapist's Choice\u00ae with easy to clean cover and sharp corners, perfect for brief sessions. It is as advertised.
It took a few minutes with a kitchen tool to transform it into an ideal solution for sciatica pain relief at home. I think it is great and recommend to others with the noted reservations.", "label": 1}

My husband, well let's say his motivation is a bit more relaxed than mine. He claims that they have no effect on him. Perhaps that is because he has no desire to learn anything new.

Two scoops would likely be fine but I'd be flying and nervous.

it has no water as to not impede it's impact.

Still, even with that, I thought the brush did a good job of cleaning my teeth. It rinsed out nicely with no residue on the brush, and after 10 days' use, there is no bristle deformation. The reason I am giving it one star is that it has a design flaw that makes me uncomfortable to use it. The brush is in two pieces: a stiff plastic handle and a the head which is a sleeve with the soft rubber-like "bristles". The head slips onto the handle like a tight sleeve. The trouble is that the bristle head does not seal on to the handle and after a few days of use, moisture, saliva, and toothpaste gunk seeps into that area between the handle and the head, and makes the whole thing a funky mess.

OMG!! I got this device yesterday on a whim. I am so tired of waxing, shaving, I break out like crazy. I bought this exclusively for my bikini area so that is what I'm going to review. First of all, product comes in a nice box -very simple, interchangeable heads that change out easily and you provide your own AAA batteries.I also bought it pretty much to use the epilator part ,not the shaver.I had about a weeks worth of growth, and my hair is dark. I don't have a huge amount , but enough that it needs to come off. When I used it, I used it in the opposite direction of the hair growth and I pushed down pretty hard. At first I went a little bit slowly, and then when I realized the pain it really wasn't bad, I went a little faster .it pulled pretty much all of it out at first, but it took a couple of passes.I did not mind. Also, if you go side to side that works pretty well too .I discovered that by mistake! And FYI if there is no hair that is being picked up you feel no pain. The only time you feel the pain is when the device actually pulls the hair out. I finished in a fair amount of time, with just a red rash type thing that is way less than waxing or even shaving. I am sure it will clear up on its own by tonight ,no later than tomorrow-it's that minor. I cannot recommend is highly enough!

I have grown dependent on these little guys as we just welcomed tiny twins into the world and they are remaining in the hospital's NICU for several weeks. I'm up there several times per day for several hours and ALWAYS use one of these extenders. I could wear my mask without the need for this but it is a huge help in keeping me comfortable without and fatigue or soreness on my ears from the bands. I'm not sure how much of an extension it offers if you truly need that capability since I'm always on the outer most prongs. But these are a huge help for me!
I've seen a few different types of designs for mask extenders. They seem to work well for me personally. I saw and tried others that are thinner and more like a 3D-printed plastic than a rubbery silicone material - with mixed reviews and perhaps 1 important variable for me is that I have a shaved head. So these don't mess with my hair and they happen to hold well at least for the few masks I've used them with.
I use these only on occasion as I have a few masks which I like but the ear loops are not stretchy and this don't all fit me well unless using one of these extenders.
I'd say that I would recommend these if you have some masks which you'd like to use but just don't fit well due to ear hoop restrictions. Otherwise I don't see much of a point other than taking avoiding a mask tugging on the back of your ears if you need to wear one for hours.", "label": 1}

In theory, this sounded great, but the results were not quite as impressive for me as I hoped.
PROS:
\u2611\ufe0f Simple to use (after you\u2019ve applied your mascara) and takes about 10 seconds to heat up. The display goes from a purplish-pink to white when ready.
\u2611\ufe0f 4 different heat settings from 55-85\u2014displayed in celsius only\u2014to choose from based on coarseness of lash hair. Also, the display is very clear and easy to read for temp and battery charge.
\u2611\ufe0f Extremely lightweight and similar dimensions to a tube of mascara.
\u2611\ufe0f Rechargeable, so no need to mess with batteries. And since the amount of time it gets used is so brief, the charge really does last.
NOTABLES:
\ud83d\udd18 I tried each of the settings on various occasions, and it took the highest (85C) to see much of any curl. As you can see from the before and after pics, the curl I got was so minimal, I\u2019m not sure it made much of a difference for the effort? HOWEVER, I will say using heat did seem to creating a more LASTING curl to the lash, which is something.
\ud83d\udd18 Now, if this design had incorporated a minimal level of heat ALONG with the clamp style, then I think you could achieve a really amazing (and lasting) lash curl!
Perhaps others will have more obvious results? As for me, I\u2019ll likely use this on occasion, while still returning to my OG, tried and true, lash curler that is a bit more effective in creating a pronounced curl at the base of the lashes.", "label": 1}

They look weird, they feel weird...how is this good for my body/face??? I held off on trying one of these out for quite some time, but I'm glad I finally did! I got the yellow one as it's supposed to be good for "mature" skin and can help reduce wrinkles and dark spots that come with age.
So when you get this, it feels like a sponge that's all dried up and if you're like me you're like how the heck is this supposed to be good for my skin?? I was a little skeptical but I followed the directions and soaked the sponge with water for a little while. Wow, what a difference that makes! The sponge is super soft once its been soaked in water.
I chose to not use any extra cleaner the first few times I used this as I just wanted to see what results I got with just the sponge. I prefer not to use extra chemicals on my face if I don't need too, so I wanted to see how effective the sponge was by itself. I had a TON of makeup on my face and this worked really well to cleanse my face. I think it would be best if I removed some of my makeup with a makeup remover first, but it did work really well.

STAINLESS STEEL - The Modern Man\u00ae Nose Trimmer blades are constructed in stainless steel. It is durable, convenient, lightweight, and battery powered (batteries are NOT included). The high quality, sharp blades provide you with the smoothest, cleanest cut around!
WATER RESISTANT - You can use our nose trimmer dry, but it is also sealed to keep out moisture, so you can use it in the shower too. The wet/dry convenience makes trimming easy and comfortable, anytime, anywhere!
ACCURATE & PAIN-FREE - Our design offers you with accurate, pain-free precision! The rotary cutting system allows hairs to enter the trimmer from the top and sides, which is very helpful for stray hairs in your nose, on your eyebrows, beard, and ears!
GROOMING LIGHT, BRUSH & CAP - The integrated bright LED grooming light is great for locating those hard to reach, and hard to find hairs. Plus with the included cleaning brush and cap, keeping your trimmer clean and in pristine condition is so simple!", "label": 1}

My 8 yr old son picked this out and when he finally got to use it he was thrilled by how long it took to dissolve which made it a cool navy/deep purple color and the smell was sweetly pleasant but not overly done. That medium sized bathroom really smelled of sherbet, but not strong smelling down the hallway.
Now he didn\u2019t come out smelling as strong as the fragrance but his skin was somewhat softer, however the water was definitely soft and silky (he was only in for about 12-15min with no other soaps used, for we shower before bathing).
Overall this would make a nice cheap gift that will surely please. It\u2019s not at all a luxury item, and I bet these Amazon sellers are making four to five dollars profit per sell, is it still worth the price of six and change (as of 8/2020)? Yea, sure why not, but you maybe able to find this treasure elsewhere.
As far the other reviews casting a negative light on this product.
1st- Keep a clean tub and you shouldn\u2019t have staining.
If your tub has a build up of soap residue from bathing products, or your tub enamel is scuffed/worn, then yea you might get a ring around the tub.
2nd-One person\u2019s perception of how strong or weak a fragrance is different from person to person. What I can tell you is the bath bomb does have a sweet smell (advertised as sherbet), but my nose didn\u2019t detect any note resembling citrus essential oils. The smell I would describe as a manufactured take on sherbet.", "label": 1}

There is no difference here from just rubbing your teeth with anything. Your teeth do not feel clean after (see below for what does feel clean), and you still have the feeling like you haven't brushed your teeth. The second problem is that these really only fit small fingers. I have a larger hand and the brush up would only fit on my pinky finger. You also cannot get far enough back in your mouth because you're sticking your finger back there. Finally, the product is very expensive for what it does. A minor point is that you look pretty silly sticking your finger around your mouth, and if you try to reach far back, you'll get saliva on your finger/hand too.
The only reason this is a 2-star instead of a 1-star is because it does have some breath freshener... in fact, this is the only real effect of this product. You could get the same result by taking a napkin, pouring some mouthwash on it, and rubbing it on your teeth. You feel like you have some breath freshener, but you do not get a brush (which is supposedly the point of a brush-up).
This product is a gimmick, my wife and I went through one pack of these. Just stick with some mouthwash and you'll get more for your money and feel better. You need a real toothbrush to get a brush still.", "label": 0}

I've tried whitening treatments in the past and those never worked. Also my dentist has said due to the texture of my teeth, I'd never get much from whitening. My dentist clearly doesn't know about this product! After the first treatment I actually noticed a slight change in the color of my teeth. Multiple uses amplifies this effect. The treatments are easy to apply and stick really well without being uncomfortable. The instructions, which are extremely clear and very helpful, suggest wearing the strips for 30 minutes or up to an hour. I wear them about 40-45 minutes based on what I'm doing around the house. Upon removing them, they come off pretty easily but leave a bit of stickiness that comes off with a gentle rinse or brush. I haven't even had to use the desensitizing brush because I've had zero sensitivity as of yet, which surprises me because I have naturally sensitive teeth. I suspect it's because this is a cruelty-free and natural product with no aggressive ingredients. The powder that is supplied for dipping your toothbrush in for brushing is really wonderful and has a good taste. I use toothpaste and just dunk my brush in the powder. My mouth feels especially clean after brushing with it. And an extra perk: all this comes with a bamboo toothbrush! I love how eco-friendly and ethically-conscious this company is!

Original Review: I am not sure what I was expecting, but I was pretty surprised when i tried it on my very hairy leg. I just rubbed it on my leg in a few circles and there was no hair. I was so shocked and did it again. I called my daughter in and did it on her very hairy leg.... She is a pre-teen and just doesn't care that much yet. My husband teases her that she has more hair than he does. I did it on her leg and she looked at me like I just flashed her a million-dollar bill. She said, \"A gift from the Gods!\" I laughed so hard. It works well on very course hair, but not on light thin hairs. So it didn't work as well on the upper legs well. I am also plus size and my skin moves around a lot. I think if I were thinner and my fat wasn't so floppy it might work better on the thinner hairs, but it is what it is. It didn't take long to do from the knees down or my face. the thinner hair on my face did come off well, that's why i think if my legs weren't so chubby it would have worked better.

The box that this scale was packaged in was a little scuffed up, but nothing too damaging. When I first stepped on the scale it read my weight but the C popped up meaning the measurement was off and it needed to re-calibrate, which is to be expected the first time you step on it. So after it re-calibrated I stepped on it again and it and my weight reading seemed to be more accurate. I wanted to test out the accuracy so I stepped on the scale for the third time and my reading was different. Then I stepped on it a 4th time and it was different again. I probably stepped on the scale about 10 more times and received 5 different readings within a 10 minute span. The range of weight difference was over a pound. Whereas some people may not see this as a major issue, I am a woman, that pound counts! That's one more glass of wine I could potentially have if I chose the lowest weight reading. This scale is just not as accurate as I'd like it to be. I don't want to have to second guess if my scale is reading the correct weight every time I step on the scale. I also don't want to have to step on the scale several times to prove that the weight shown is indeed the correct weight. All in all, I'm going to buy from a different company.

We collected the hair samples, scanned the QR code, recorded the information and mailed it out.
We received an email acknowledgement and a few days later the results.
It stated she was in the \"Red\" (high sensitivity) for dairy and all cheeses, which does not appear to be true since our kids drink a lot of milk, twice a day and our daughter eats cheese almost every day since she loves it.
Most importantly, we searched for Bananas and it showed she was completely in the clear for bananas.
So we gave her 1/4 of a banana with Benadryl in our other hand. She had no other foods since 12pm and we did this before dinner, so her stomach was clear of foods for probably 5+ hours.
Within 15 minutes her stomach hurt and she started feeling itchy. This was the same reaction we suspected over a year ago and thought it was probably the banana.
We gave her Benadryl and she was feeling better within 20 minutes.
I looked at the test results again and it said she was in the clear for Bananas but completely high/red for dairy and all cheeses listed.
For now, we cannot trust their results since we have real-life experience of the opposite.
Hope the manufacturer will contact me to re-verify results.

My 11 year old daughter has very thick, coarse, curly hair that is prone to "frizzies" causing huge tangles and knots/mats. We have been using a flat iron but it takes so long, having to go section by section - about a half hour at a minimum. It always ended up with her screaming at me. She woke up with severe bed head the day after we received this product. I am not kidding we had her hair straightened in under 3 minutes! I specifically ordered this one because it goes to 450 degrees which is how hot our flat iron would get. For thick hair we need hotter temperatures. What made this so much faster is that I can take an entire section of her hair (both top and bottom layers) and just gently glide the brush through making sure the hair gets deep into the bristles. I did her whole head in 4 HUGE sections - left, right, back left, and back right. Her hair looked amazing. We didn't need to use the glove. This was so easy to use that she can probably do this herself without fear of being burned, but I will have her wear the glove just in case.

These gloves feel thicker and a little bulkier than my usual yellow latex gloves.

These gloves come up higher on my forearms than my similar household gloves, so they offer good protection of my arms and hands from hot or dirty water and grime when I\u2019m washing dishes, cleaning the toilets and so on.

I've tried so many different cushions: inflatable, liquid filled, the U shaped type, and on and on. The others can be alright, but you have to sit on them in a specific way, or spot. Even with the Purple brand 'Royal' seat cushion (it's the cushion just under this one), I had the problem of having to sit on it in just the right spot, which led to constantly trying to readjust my butt.

It's fantastic, and honestly the most comforting, and pressure relieving cushion I have ever used.
Unless you just need a smaller cushion for whatever reason, do yourself a favor, and just spend a little more and get it right the first time--I wish I had.

Overall impression -
Solid 4 star shaver
It\u2019s a nice shaver. Has a lot of positive features. Cuts smooth. (Can be better in the neck area) I did remove a star because I read multiple times that it was waterproof, thinking I could take it in the shower, but after reading the instructions, I don\u2019t think that\u2019s what it meant by \u201cwaterproof.\u201d I found that slightly misleading.
10/18 Update: after using this for about 6 weeks, maybe once a week, it has completely stopped working. I plugged it in thinking maybe it was dead, it light up as normal, left it charge for 40 mins, and nothing. Was kept in a basket, safe space, never dropped, & never soaked with any liquids. Breaking for no reason, so fast with minimal use, pushes this item to 1 star (only because I can\u2019t give it zero) disappointing.
Over all: started out good, solid 4 stars. I really enjoyed it. If it had not broke so quick for no reason, I would have recommended it. Unfortunately I think this is just a cheap shaver that\u2019s designed nice & works, until it doesn\u2019t.", "label": 0}

There are lots of excellent reviews on here already. I just wanted to add that I believe Fitbit has simplified setup since the 2012 debut. I found it very simple to setup. I put it in setup mode as directed, it found my network, and that was it. Works perfectly.
I have found it to be pretty accurate. A few times I have noticed a sudden jump up of my weight from one day to the next, but when I have stepped on it again it came back to within an expected range of my previous weight. The day to day measurements are somewhat less important than the long-term trend, which is what Aria is best at. It does seem to matter how you stand on it, but I think this is true of every scale I have owned. The website has very nice graphs of weight, BMI, fat %, fat vs. lean, over a variety of time periods (from one week up to every reading Aria has recorded). Given the amount of data the One and the Aria collects, I have a feeling that more analytics might be rolled out on the website in the future. All of your data is kept as private as you wish. The Fitbit site also has a community forum, but I like the MFP one better.

We received a near square medium duty clear tape sealed plastic package, measuring 9\u201d x 11\" x 2\" weighing in at near (10) ounces. Folded within was the footrest/bed. Inserts were included inside, that gave basic instructions.
Too small
I was really excited to receive this, from when I opened the package to when I started to open this up. However, my spouse had to do a mock trial and said in theory this appeared a great item, however, disagreed on its practicality and whether the steward/stewardess would allow this to clutter the row. Point acknowledged, but how about the tray? That\u2019s down. So, we would have to be taking this off and on depending on the vagaries of the attendants and bumpiness of the ride. Because it did seem a little unstable.
Quality
Seems sturdy and durable enough.
Would I select this again.
I say yes, my spouse said no.
Rating
Based on the totality, I compromised and allow a weak four (4) stars while my spouse said lower.
Gifting
Would be okay for gifting, although no tags, the packaging was simple and it kind of looks like a commodity item that was bought on the cheap.
Value
In hindsight, and now having this in-hand, having this priced at near $50 is too high. A price less than half of that would be an idea to consider giving this a try.
Measures
Measures near 32\u201d long and 18\u201d wide. The average leg room is 31\u201d on a plane

That didn't happen when I purchased from Wally world. Between COVID and a broken ankle, I needed an affordable, healthy solution that was easy to prepare. So glad I tried this. The meals are actually pretty good! And there is plenty to eat. While you can't pick your meals, you can purchase different kits for variety, or if you are trying to focus on different aspects of your diet. I first tried the \"Balanced\" plan, now I'm trying the \"Protein Powered\" plan to address bone healing. Very easy to use, all you need is a microwave, so if you're hobbling around on crutches or a knee scooter like me right now, and can't cook, it's a breeze to still eat healthy and prepare your own meals. There are treats and protein shakes too (separate purchases, however). You can add a simple salad, or slice of bread, almonds, fruit, veggies, an egg, avocado, etc., to enhance your plan. It is all in the meal planning booklet. You are also eligible for online support if needed.
This is a great, healthy system to allow you to lose or maintain your weight in a nutritionally sound, but realistic manner. This ensures you will keep it off and restart solid eating habits, or teach yourself how to eat better going forward, or simply stay on course. And it won't break the bank. Ordering it from Amazon makes it so easy, nothing to join, no commitments to make. So glad I tried it; can't recommend it highly enough.", "label": 1}

This Lion's Mane extract tasted similar to cocoa powder, which might be considered nice. Other reviewers stated it tasted fishy, but that it worked. I felt this was significant to mention. Maybe I got a different batch than they did. Maybe the quality control is not functional. Maybe it was harvested at the wrong time.
On the plus side, the 30 day money back guarantee was long enough to figure out this was causing me unwanted effects. If the 30 day guarantee is still in effect, why not see if it works for you?
I think all these companies leave a note that they are sorry you didnt like their "too good to be true" mushroom supplement, but that you failed by not using it for 2 months.

This is two 5 lb bags--one of Borax and one of Washing Soda. Each is finely ground and no lumps which makes them easy to dissolve when making my laundry soap.
I have a liquid version and a powdered version. I am currently using my liquid version.
For the liquid version I use
3/4 cup super washing soda
3/4 cup borax
Shake well to dissolve in a 1 gallon jug about 1/4 full of warm water then add water to fill the jug leaving room for the
3/4 cup Original Blue Dawn
This makes 1 gallon of laundry soap which uses 1-2 TBL for front loader or 1/4 c for top loader for fresh, clean clothes.
The powdered version uses
1 bar (5 oz.) Fels-Naptha laundry bar, grated or run through the food processor
2 cups (14 oz.) borax
1 3/4 cups (14 oz.) washing soda
Instructions
Grate the entire bar Fels Naptha (or other laundry bar soap using the fine side of a cheese grater or food processor.
Pour grated soap, borax, and washing soda into a large mixing bowl.
Stir to mix well then transfer mixture to quart-size or larger container. (I like to run it all through a food processor to make it all very finely chopped)
To Use: Add 1 tablespoon powdered laundry detergent to the wash load. You may need to adjust depending on your conditions and washer size. You will not need much to produce excellent results.
I go back and forth on which I use depending on whether I can get some fels or not.
As you can see, these bags of Borax and Washing Soda will last me a very long time for my laundry needs which makes these a good value. And they come right to my door!", "label": 1}

Best part is my dog tolerated it quite well. She wasn\u2019t thrilled, but there was minimal pulling away. It helped I think that the lowest speed was more than enough to do the job. It is quieter and perhaps has less vibration which I assume is what my dog is afraid of.
All in all, I am quite satisfied with the purchase and would definitely recommend. I can\u2019t speak to longevity as it is a fresh purchase.

First, the positives. It looks very cool and seems to be an accurate weight scale. After an initial bit of confusion, it synchronizes wirelessly fine for both users of the scale. And the online charts on the FitBit site are nice.
Now for the negatives. The body fat measuring portion scale is far from accurate. Even using the \"lean\" setting (since I am very active), the scale measures my body fat percentage 4-10% higher than reality. And the body fat percentage varies greatly, jumping 2-4% from day to day. It even varies this much if one steps off and then immediately steps back on. I realize that this scale is not to be compared with the types of equipment that professionals use to measure body fat, but I thought that this would give me a bit more accurate readings.
The bottom line is that it is a fine weight scale, but not a very good body fat scale. And if all that you want is a fine weight scale, save some money and buy the [[ASIN:B003XHVSBC Biggest Loser 7544bl Cal-max by Talor Wide Body Scale, 440-Pound]] for $40. The Taylor is a quality, accurate scale.

To be sure, it IS porcelain but not like fine china; it is more like a porcelain bathroom fixture. The bowl itself weighs 5.5 ounces (164 grams); that's about a third of a pound! Without using your hand to hold it up while smoking, you must clench your teeth really tight around the bit. The rest of the pipe is lightweight for a total of 7 ounces (198 grams).
2) When I started trying to smoke this pipe, the smoke wouldn't draw. There were leaks where the bowl rests on the body, where the stem screws into the body, and where the bit fits into the stem. I was able to fix that as follows: I used Teflon white plumbers tape on the threads on the porcelain, the threads on the screw-in stem, and the bit where it fits into the stem. I also used white casein glue (kid's glue or carpenter's glue) between the bowl and the Wax Berry body. (The Teflon there was to keep the glue out of the threads so if I ever wanted to get it apart again, I could.) After that, I was reasonably happy with my pipe; it smoked fairly well for about a month. Then, ...

No, I didn't have any indication that there is any interference or too much traffic on the network. I do have a network with MAC filtering, but I had put the scale's wifi number into my router, granting it permission to connect, and restarted. I'm pretty sure that wasn\u2019t the problem, since the scale did sync a time or two. If it were blocked out, then it would have failed to ever sync.
I then followed the instructions online of resetting the scale by removing the battery, pressing down the corners, and going through the setup routine again. This time it crashed my router for some reason\u2014and, to make a long story short, again failed to produce consistent syncing.
After working with it further, I saw that there was little chance of ever getting it to sync reliably, and just decided to give up.", "label": 0}

But then I had knee surgery so I used it mainly at home for rehabilitation.
Now I use it for exercise while I'm watching TV. I just leave it in front of my viewing chair so whenever I sit down my feet end up on it and next thing you know I'm pedaling without even thinking about it. I can easily do 45 minutes while watching a show on tivo and it's painless.
Others have commented that the unit will slide across the floor, and that's true it does slide a little bit gradually as you use it, but that's not a product defect as I see it. Other than using glue or screws, it is unreasonable to expect that any device resting on the floor isn't going to slide as you apply a large lateral force to it with your legs. However, fixing this is TRIVIAL! Just get a couple 4-6 foot lengths of rope, strap, or something similar and loop one around each side of the rear bar on the unit. Loop the other ends around your chair leg(s) and the unit won't go anywhere. This has worked like a charm for me and takes 10 seconds to put on or take off.
UPDATED: Well, I pedaled this thing to death, literally. The pedals started grinding and slipping after about 6 months of nearly daily usage for about 20 minutes each.

I am generally very picky about the flavor of my protein powder, and it took me a long time to find something that I really liked. This one comes very close to that in terms of not having either the bad flavor or the after taste. According to the supplement facts, it has about 24 grams of protein for every 38 grams and 140 calories plus 2.5g of fat. The amount of fat and the calorie were a little bit higher than my other protein powder, but it wasn\u2019t a really big deal. The only thing that is missing in the supplement facts, is the amount of cholesterol in each serving.
The flavor is pretty good, but it is a bit overly sweetened. The artificial sweetener also doesn\u2019t help. It is hard to find a protein powder that doesn\u2019t have the bad after flavor, but this one was decent. Not the best but was good enough. The serving size is one scoop and it says to mix one scoop with 6-12 oz of water, but I mixed it with 16 oz and it was still decent. One thing that this one was missing was the flavor of hazelnut. The chocolate flavor is obvious, but there is only a slight hint of hazelnut.
Pros:
Flavor, great scent, dissolvability in water and gritty taste plus the good packaging.
Cons:
The amount of sweetener is a bit high. It doesn\u2019t taste bad, but it is slightly over sweetened, in my opinion.
Overall, I would recommend this protein powder if you are looking for a killer protein powder with good quality ingredients.", "label": 1}

I bought this with Purple's "Portable" cushion as their website suggests that cushion is good for tall people in small cars, though I didn't find that to be true. This back cushion however is a godsend for my Chevy Cobalt's poorly designed driver seat.
Criticisms:
My advice to purple: Please document what the loops on the back of the cover are for. There is no indication or documentation I could find that describes what to use them for or how to use them, although I found some generic text referencing a "handle" on this cover, which seems to be left over from another cushion. Logic tells me these loops are to secure the cushion to the seat with elastic bands or straps.
While this was sold as "New" direct from Purple's Prime store, it did not come in a box like the Portable Cushion. This bothered me because I hadn't selected "no-hassle" shipping and the other cushion came with information about it. The cushion isn't affected by this shipping decision, but I would have appreciated a heads up. Receiving it without the packaging made it feel incomplete, especially when shipped next to the portable cushion. I felt like it was missing important information such as "Don't leave this in a 'superheated' car because it will deform if pressure is applied when heated above 105\u00baF" and perhaps straps to keep it in place on a seat-back.", "label": 1}

Let me explain why.
My wife had tried various breast pump from different brands and types. She tried double electric pump from Medela, the famous one, single manual pump from Philips Avent as well as the double electric one. Every time the pump arrive, our excitement that we fought finally there is a good pump to express milk ended in disappointment because after 2-3 times use, my wife always feels pain. Until she found Dr. Brown's Double Electric Breast Pump, which we took a bet to purchase it because it is quite expensive and more over, there's no support available in Singapore.
And it paid off. Yes, the pump is slower to express milk compared to others she had tried before. But this one doesn't cause any pain. It's so smooth. Yes, the parts to assemble the pump is quite tedious and it contains 6 different parts to assemble 1 pump, but those many parts are for the smoothness that the pump is meant for.
The only down side is that the top part of the bottle which is used to connect to the "pipe" to the electric pump is very tough to be assembled. One morning, I pushed to hard and it caused a small part broken. As I said, there's no support in Singapore where we live. So I contacted the customer service via online contact page and that night someone replied and she immediately arranged a replacement parts. The best part is that the replacement are free and they even ship to Singapore, all for free, no charge at all. And furthermore, they didn't just ship the broken part, but instead they shipped the whole parts that assemble the bottle complete 2 sets. So it's like receiving the entire new set except the electric part. What a great after sales service.", "label": 1}

The bottle says there are 60 supplements and on the bottom of the bottle it says that there is a one month supply, so I deducted that you were only supposed to take 1 supplement with two different meals to equal 2 supplements a day for 30 days, which would bring you to 60. I started with that number instead of the suggested 2-3 per meal as stated on the bottle under suggested use, I am very glad that I did.
Here is the key, each person's digestive system is different and therefore will differ from person to person. You need to know yourself. For example, I am older and have a slower metabolism and digestive system. I normally need to take fiber pills or colon cleansing pills so I am not constipated. I started with one pill and no extra fiber or colon pills about 20 minutes before my very first meal with these pills. About 15 minutes after I ate I went to the bathroom and then had a normal, soft stool bowel movement.
For a person that doesn't have constipation issues, you may only need one a day. You want to proceed forward slowly to find out if you need to take more or not. One reviewer took the recommended 2 with her first meal and ended up with issues for two plus days. I would also recommend first trying this on a day when you are not working to see how it affects you.

I liked that it has buttons for each type of sound so I didn't have to cycle through too many options to get to the one I wanted. The animal sounds are soothing in particular, but I was a big fan of the types of white noise and the fan noise for aiding in falling asleep.
The light on this is pretty versatile. The first white light is very faint and works well as a night light without being too bright. The second one is more of an actual light then the rest are just atmospheric for color effects. One of the most impressive points is the volume.

i like it
first the cons: i got the supposedly neutral white color, it is VERY orange/pink, i was not expecting that
the user interface is weird, but it;s better than the first 2 versions which used a buggy twist head, which was also not waterproof
i can;t really explain the UI
some things are good, some just quirky
the color is sort of a tan, i was expecting gray or black
stuff i like:
the button for a switch
the clip is very strong and springy
the size is just very very small, one thing making this possible is a plexiglass TII [total internal reflection] optic
it is not a mirror, it is very short in length
i like that there is only one removeable part, the battery cap
i like that the battery does not rattle
i think various sizes of 18650 would go in just fine
i like the glow o-ring inside the head
the knurling and overall workmanship is very good
the turbo mode turns itself off after 1 minute, it goes back to the previous mode
i think this is because in such a small light, the heat sinking isn;t great
i kind of wish it looked simpler, more elegant
there are 15 different 'regions' of thickness, knurling, ridges, shiny parts, etc
you can reverse the clip but i like it the way it is shown in the amazon pic

to be honest these maske are normally nice feeling lightweight fabric. one layer! don't be fooled by the 3 layers listed. the second two layers are very open weave apparently inferior grade. they provide no protection whatsoever. however they do have a filter pocket and i always wear them with a filter. ALWAYS! otherwise you might as well not wear a mask at all.
i have both the virtue code pleated and this style mask in fabric. the pleated ones are one lightweight layer with a very similar weight filter pocket and come with one filter. so order a package of filters also. the little flat ones. i have none of their neoprine masks. i have a smallish face. the earloops make it adjustable so it fits nicely. i just feel good and happy wearing these masks. thanks to virtue code for making pretty masks at a sensible price but please please use two true layers at least in the masks then the filter pockets.
my friend and i ( her mostly) made over a thousand quilting fabric 2 layer masks, some with filters and some with the heavy filters sold at better fabric stores. those are all my workhorse masks. but if i just want to smile while choosing my daily masks, i always smile when i see the virtue code ones.", "label": 1}

I followed the directions several times, but the dried gel fell off after no more than a day or two every time. Finally, on about my tenth attempt, I got it to stick. I have had it on for about two weeks now, and it is on solid! I can wash my hands and shower with my ring on, and the gel stays put. Plus, it is discreet and so comfortable that I don't really notice it. I would have given the gel a lower rating because it was so difficult to get right, but now that I got it right, it works so well that I consider it a four-star product.
To make it stick, you have to put a thick glob of gel in one location. Smooth it out on top of the glob, but keep it thick. If it is thin around the edges of the glob, those edges will peel off, and the whole glob will come off. Instead of thinning out the ends of the glob, the ends should be little "cliffs" that go down to the inside of the ring. (Do not coat the entire inside of the ring with the gel! It will start to come off the first time you put the ring on! Use a single glob instead.) Allow at least 24 hours for it to dry. When you put your ring on, be careful not to put too much pressure on the gel as you slide the ring over your knuckle.
I recommend this product to anyone who has a men's wedding band or similar ring that is too large. It works if you're patient!", "label": 1}

We have one carpeted room in our house where my 12 year old cat likes to pee sometimes if we do not clean his litter box right away. He is a picky little butt head. There always seems to be lingering smell and of course the carpet is light blue so it is super hard to get the stain out. When using this I was obviously a bit skeptical. A downside is there is not ingredient list on the bottle which would be nice to know what kind of chemical I am spraying in my house. There is not really a strong smell to the spray which is nice because with other cleaners if it doesn't smell like cat pee, then it smells like I'm bathing in Lysol. First the stain color itself, it did seem to fade an older stain that was on my carpet using a good soaking of this. Also, I made sure to rub firmly to make sure it got down to the bottom of the carpet. The smell has been reduced on an old and new stain, and in my experience seems to do better at this than other products. I still however notice a faint smell. Perhaps I need to use more of this. Also, I'm not sure it could remove the smell forever unless you really soak it into the carpet padding. For the price you pay, it does seem to me like this works a bit better than other cleaners, however, I'm not sure it will really eliminate the odor completely without using a whole bottle, tearing up my carpet, or getting rid of my cat.

This summer has been ridiculous with the rain and overabundance of mosquitoes. Every time I go outside at work or to exercise I end up getting eaten up. For whatever reason, I just must really smell good to mosquitoes! I got to the point where I was afraid to leave the house because the bites were becoming more numerous and the itching was severe. I initially purchased an \"Off\" brand product, containing DEET, which works really well- but boy does it stink! I did not like smelling like that all day and was desperate to find something else. I gave the Avon product a try and am very pleased with the results. This smells more like sunscreen and is not strong in the least. As long as I put it on, it has protected me from the mosquitoes and my number of bites has drastically decreased. Since it is a lotion, it is much easier to apply to specific areas such as arms or neck without getting it everywhere- and you are not inhaling half of it like with the spray on products. Really, the only downside is that you seem to have to apply this more frequently than the DEET containing products. About every 4 hours if you are going to be outside in mosquito rich areas. I believe the directions say about every 2 hours, but I found you can go to 4 as long as you are not swimming or getting wet.
Highly recommend for anyone that seems to be a delightful dish to a mosquito. The sunscreen is just a bonus. It is easy to use and once it dries you don't feel oily or greasy. Thank you Avon!", "label": 1}

I gave it 4 stars only because it didn't come with instructions but after watching a YouTube video, I was able to use it with no problem. Each person is different but this is what worked for me:
I used the size medium pink curlers instead of the rods. I have short straight Asian eyelashes that even after using a curler or whatever to curl my lashes, they are as straight as a stick again. I felt the large wasn't going to do anything and that the smalls were going to curl my lashes over each other's so I used the medium and they were a perfect fit! I did cut it to fit my eyes as I tried to use them as is and even after glueing them on my lids, the bottom piece would still stick out over my lashes. After cutting them to fit, I was able to eliminate that problem. Make sure when glueing your lashes that you keep each lashes as separately as possible since how you glue them on will be what they look like once permed. For
Solution A and B, I left both on for 20 mins. Then clean with solution C. Solution D I left on for 6 minutes. Once done with solution D, I used solution C to help clean off the glue I had on my lids and lashes using Q tips. Do not use water!!!
I do wish that there was more of Solution C instead of just two small bottles of them but other than that, I'm pretty please with the results. The picture is without mascara or anything else on but you can definitely see the curls \ud83d\ude0d", "label": 1}

Thanks to a sale I got both these and Eargasms and decided to test them.
Basically, Downbeats muffled sound more than Eargasm earplugs did, but at loud volumes (like a concert) the muffle isn't that noticeable. Since I need earplugs that are clear at more normal volumes too (like a college lecture, background conversations in a large room), these muffled a bit too much to be helpful. It still wasn't a wasted purchase as I discovered these earplugs help with lessening noise when I need to fall asleep without muting too much (I still need to hear alarms, but I'm a very light sleeper), and the small size makes them comfortable for side sleeping.
I didn't have a problem with removal like some other reviews said as I couldn't stick the earplugs far enough into my ear for it to be an issue.
The picture is a size comparison of downbeats and the Eargasm high Fidelity earplugs (order is: Regular Eargasm plugs on the left, Downbeats in center, and smaller Eargasms on the right).

You know how you get mentally tired from a workout at a certain point? This stuff curtails or eliminates that. I was 40 minutes into a pretty strenuous workout this morning and I didn't feel like I wanted to stop. I felt like I could just keep going - there was no mental breakdown or resistance to doing more exercise.
I took this supplement about a year and a half ago and noticed the same sort of effect. I thought it was just a one-off, but it seems to be an effect of the powder. Pretty neat if you want a long workout without mental nagging.
Pros:
* As mentioned above, it seems to eliminate the "I want to stop working out now". It just gives more mental endurance
* Gives you more focus and sustained energy - leads to more lifts
* Lifts your mood somewhat, although the Shatter original formula seems to do this a lot more for me. That stuff is a big mood enhancer - you feel incredible!
* Doesn't taste bad
* Generous servings for the price (60)
Cons:
* Not much to complain about. This isn't really a con, but some people might not like it - there is a medium-strength niacin flush you get from ingesting it, especially on an empty stomach. It's like a warm, tingly, flushing feeling. Again, it doesn't bother me at all, but some folks may shy away from that.
Otherwise, this is really great stuff - a very potent addition to pre-workout regimens.
Other things:
If you want the most potent experience, I suggest taking it early in the morning on an empty stomach. Go workout about 15-20 minutes later. You'll feel the effects nicely.", "label": 1}

2. The ink has worn away on a couple of them. I don't know if it's because I got oil on the cases, or what. I've included a couple pictures.

I am a petite woman (5'1\", 120 lbs) and have small and somewhat weak hands from carpal tunnel surgery years ago. This thing takes a LOT of hand and upper body strength to bend the fairly rigid plastic into the slot it needs to lock into. (I even briefly considered putting it in the oven on a low temp to soften it, but quickly realized that that might ruin the back stretcher and/or my oven, and potentially end in disaster!) Instead, I kept working on it each day a little at a time, trying different approaches and bending it as far as I could by kneeling on it, pulling the ends upward and holding for as long as I could (usually about 30 seconds). After about a week, this actually made it pliable enough that I could FINALLY get it locked into place on the first level.
I was then able to use it for the first time and I must admit -- it really did help my back! I felt much better after only about 5 minutes the first time I used it. However, the raised bumps along the edge of the slot where your spine fits were somewhat uncomfortable. I really don't understand why those bumps are there -- the thing would work just as well without them and would be way more comfortable.
So now I'm glad I didn't return it as I was thinking about doing when I first got it and couldn't put it together.

My stubborn lashes need more heat and thankfully the high setting on this was enough to get them to behave.
I was a bit nervous about having a heating tool on my lash line but there actually was never a point where it felt like I was going to burn myself and I know I was right at the lid at many points while testing this. I love that this is USB C chargeable, no specialty or outdated charging cables needed. It also will auto shut off after about 5 minutes so you can rest easy if you forget it on.
The ad does say this device has 4 heat settings which is inaccurate, it only has 2 (high=blue, low=green) - not sure if that's a misprint or an older model.

By days four and five \u2013 I am moving about like I used to when I was 40. Gone pain is forgotten pain, I guess, as I did forget for a time that I was not in pain.

Good quality straps that don't seem like it will loosen soon, and the back part is a rubber/semi-matte-plastic material that pushes your muscles up. Out of the box, there was a slight smell that probably can be rid off by tossing it in the good ol washer.
From an anatomy perspective, the reason why we have the desk slouch, or \"potato chip\" slouch is due to overdeveloped lats, and underdeveloped rhomboids. If you sit up straight, and feel the back of shoulder blades connect to each other, that part of the muscle is usually the weak muscle developed from being a desk warrior. (Imagine if that muscle was really strong, you couldn't even slouch if you wanted to)
This helps in that it pushes and engages some part of this muscle, but I also suspect that I can only work with a good exercise routine that trains that specific part. The shoulder strap keeps you upright, engaging that lazy muscle that we grow accustomed to relaxing, but we would also need to give it some gym time such that overtime it becomes strong on its on. Personally, I also think this should be eased-in when wearing, such that you don't develop aches or muscle injury from something too drastic.

Everyone does something that is bad for their liver. I recommend that any healthy person take these. Your liver needs to detox to give it a clean start. If you drink or do tobacco products this is especially important. I take these to help my body digest protein better. When you take high amounts of protein your body might not absorb as much as you think. If you do take protein it is a good idea to take these.

Here is what I love about this massager:
\u2022 Excellent build quality - really nice leather.\u00a0 I have been using the massager for about 3 months now (since May 2017) and no signs of it breaking or any wear and tear of the materials.
\u2022 The heating does not get hot; just a little warm and that is ok for me.\u00a0 I don't really use the heat function I use a heat pad for that.
\u2022 The massage heads are strong.\u00a0 The massager will stop if you put too much weight on it!; for example when using it on my lower back by laying on it.
\u2022 I love that it has a battery so I can use freely without being limited by a wall plug.
\u2022 I can take it with me in my car to get a quick massage.\u00a0 Great for loosing up my back after morning traffic, during lunch time at work and before driving home after work.
\u2022 Finally a massager I can use between going to the spa that really digs deep into my lower back muscles.
\u2022 I use it on other parts of my body like hands, legs (feels really good on the upper legs)
Finally, I must say that the customer service at Koo-Care is excellent (the best I have ever experienced on Amazon).\u00a0 The first unit I purchased from them had a defect and they sent me another Koo-Care\u00a0massager free of charge!\u00a0 I highly recommend them.", "label": 1}

I literally would not be able to sit in my chair longer than 30 minutes if it wasn't for this cushion. I've spent LONG nights working/playing games in my chair, and I haven't had a single issue with back/bottom pain.
Review upgraded to 5-stars, because this thing has paid for itself every day for the last 3 years. The fabric cover is still holding strong, and the rubber cushion underneath is every bit as comfortable as it was on day one.
Bravo, Purple. You've got an awesome product here.

I just got my Ultimate seat cushion today, and have been trying it out over the last few sessions at the computer. I didn't feel comfortable doing the \"egg test\" so I went with a pack of cigarettes, since that was the closest thing I had readily available that was light and flimsy. The cigarette box did not get crushed, and I'm 300lbs. That was pretty remarkable in my opinion. Ok, on with the review.
I have been using a pillow as added cushion for the last few months, and I would always have aching pains in my lower back and buttocks after sitting for more than an hour. So far, this cushion has solved that problem. It feels great, and I feel like this was money well-spent.
I plan to add to this review later on, so I will save the pros and cons for then. I gave it 4/5 stars today because the cover slightly ripped at the end of the zipper (which feels really flimsy). This doesn't cause any malfunctions, but it's worth noting that it ripped when I was simply putting the cushion into the cover, as per the HUGE instruction sheet.

He recommended this style of brace, and after reading a ton of reviews of different products, I went with this one. It is very easy to use and after I purchased it, I received an email from the company with more directions for use and contact information if I had questions. I was surprised and pleased with the detail to service. The brace itself is remarkably comfortable for what it is. It helps pull my shoulders back without hurting. I am still able to slouch, but I have to actually concentrate to do so. When I am wearing the brace, I naturally sit up straight. The steps are very thick and padded, which adds to the comfort. This is where my only negative remark comes into play. Although it does help with the comfort level, I'm disappointed I how thick the padding is on TOP of the straps. I wouldn't expect the entire strap to be so thick. Based on the picture on the products page, I expected to be able to wear this under my clothes with little noticibility. That isn't possible. The entire strap is about 1.5 inches thick and very noticable under clothing. I still wear it, but I can't wear it at work, so it's only for home for me. Overall, I give it a 3.5", "label": 1}

One of the symptoms that I first noticed in my early 40s is that I had a very difficult time getting to sleep and staying asleep. This problem became more and more evident as months went on. Finally, I found a doctor who believed me when I said that my hormones seemed off. A test revealed that my progesterone levels were extremely low. I am fortunate that he was able to prescribe a bioidentical progesterone cream because within a couple of days of beginning to use the cream, I found myself calmer, happier and better able to fall asleep. This therapy saved my sanity during a time when my hormone levels were very "off." While many people take pharmaceutical hormones, I am only comfortable with using the bioidenticals, which are much safer according to studies. While not everyone has these issues, I'm so glad that a cream is available without prescription. My experience with progesterone is that I need more than most people, and use 100mg to 120 mg per day. Since this cream has 1,00mg per jar, the amount that works for me is about 1.5 teaspoons of cream rubbed into the skin. Many people will need less, bot I would see this as a 10-30 day supply. I wanted to test the strength of this cream, so I used it instead of my regular treatment, and I'm glad to say that it really works.

My OB prescribed me this Prenatal Cradle at about 34 weeks. My insurance covered the cost, but it had to be purchased through a medical supply company. They ordered me a medium based on my pre-pregnancy weight and pants size. They didn't tell me this also comes in tall (5'10"+) sizes, which are available through the manufacturer's website. It doesn't come with any instructions, but the manufacture does have a You Tube video demonstrating how to put it on. I can comfortably wear the belt on the middle set of hooks (my belly measures 42" at the navel), though it tends to ride up in the back. I've tried wearing the belt tighter and the straps looser, but it still rides up. Because it usually sits half above my hips, this does nothing for my back pain. However, it helps noticeably with my lower abdominal pain and I can almost stand upright again while wearing this. I've worn this belt for 3 weeks now and it's starting to fall apart. I washed it on gentle in a lingere bag, per the tag, but the fabric that the belt's hook fasteners are sewn to is fraying at the top.

These work perfect and in the end I will probably break even ($) on this 5\" VS the 1\" filters I was replacing every 30-45 days.
A trick I am using. I went to Lowe's and purchased a foam pre-filter that is supposed to go on a window AC unit. It is a thin gray/black foam sheet. I have it over this filter as a \"Pre-Filter\" to catch all the LARGE debris that would ultimately shorten the life of the 5\" filter. 1x/month I take the foam filter and rinse it out and lay it back on the 5\" filter. The foam is so thin it creates VERY little air resistance.
Another thing I noticed is the HVAC is quieter with these filters. When I would install 1\" there was always a \"whistle\" as the air passes through the filter, even when it was new. With this 5\" is is quiet, much less resistance.
The filter fit perfect into the 1\" filter housing, no modifications needed. I did add a foam rubber, self adhesive weather strip (like this [[ASIN:B0025KUSXW Duck 1297116 Self Adhesive Weatherstrip 17 Feet]] to inside face of the 1\" metal housing.

Woke up the next morning with morning wood and I couldn't seem to get it to go away!! It was actually frustrating, but that's the point of the pills, so just beware of that. Took the time to relieve some stress and to get rid of this morning wood. After finishing it was still rock hard!! No lies I could probably manage to go 2 more rounds. It made me last longer and every round lasted longer than the last.
The cons of this in my personal experience is a terrible headache and loose stool. Not sure if it was from the pills or not, so can't be for sure, but it was the worse headache I've had in a while. The package suggest taking 1-2 pills and I will definitely be taking only 1 next time. Do be careful with these pills as having an erection for an extended period of time can be dangerous. With these pills I could hold an erection for a good 10mins or so, so probably not long enough to be dangerous. Another pro/con is instant erections which are good for the bed room, but bad in public. The effects of the pills seem to last for a few days,so do be prepared to hide your erections or avoid naughty thoughts.

This pill case is perfect for that. Since we take all our supplements once a day, the two sided design served more as a "his and hers" than night and morning, but either way, it's good to have. The compartments are large enough to fit many large capsules, as you see in the picture. The lids of them fit tight, and are a little hard to open at first, but I didn't consider that a drawback. The case seems to be of good quality material, and does not have a smell when it comes out of the packaging.
The pill cutter has a nice safety feature where it locks when not in use. This is particularly good if you have small kids, because the blade of it is very sharp, and the locking feature would prevent any accidents with fingers. When I first attempted to cut a medium sized Magnesium capsule, just to test it out, the top part of the pill cutter separated from the bottom part and flew across my kitchen. I'm not sure if it just wasn't secured tightly enough, or if it was operator error, but I put it back together (not difficult), and it successfully cut the capsule on the second try.

Unfortunately I had to revise my review of this pump. It broke after 10 days of use. The pump separated from the lid, rendering it useless. It was only used twice a day and should have lasted a lot longer because I consider that "normal" use and not heavy duty use. It may be fine for thin, watery lotions, but it will only last a short time for thicker creams and lotions. I'll be looking for a replacement.
Original review: May 28, 2015
I bought this pump for use in a 19 oz size jar of CeraVe Moisturizing Cream purchased at Costco. The Costco size is slightly larger (19 oz vs 16 oz) than what I usually find in my local stores. I was worried that this pump would be too short to reach the bottom of the jar because some reviews indicated that might be the case.
However, the pump I received was actually too long. After a quick trim with a pair of scissors, the pump was a perfect fit. The first few pumps (to "prime" it) were a little hard to pump. Now it works great - but remember if you are using this with the CeraVe Cream - it is a CREAM not a lotion. The CeraVe Cream is thicker (in a good way) and therefor the "pumping" will always need more pressure than pumping a thin lotion.
I really like this pump and will keep to use in my next jar of CeraVe Cream.", "label": 0}

Pomegranate Juice or Supplement: Research has shown that this favorite drink of mine for its cardiovascular benefits has been shown to protect the prostate. Either, you want to drink four to eight ounces of pomegranate juice a day, or take a 200-300 mg pomegranate supplement.
Zinc: This vital mineral is one of the essential prostate health vitamins because it supports chromosome integrity. Studies show that for zinc, 20 mg daily is about right.
Vitamin D: Not getting enough vitamin D has been linked with numerous diseases, including prostate cancer. This is one of the top prostate health vitamins and you want to get 1,000-2,000 IU a day.
Vitamins B6, B12, and Folic Acid: All three B-vitamins help to minimize chromosomal breakage, reducing the risk of prostate cancer. For natural prostate health, you want to take 20 mg of B6, 100-200 mcg of B12, and 400-800 mcg of folic acid daily.
Vitamin C works hand-in-hand with the B-vitamins. Together, these prostate health vitamins work to protect your chromosomes. Take at least 400 mg daily.
Lycopene: Deficiencies of this critical nutrient have shown to increase prostate cancer risk. You want to take 2 to 10 mg daily of this prostate health vitamin.
Vitamin E and Selenium: These nutrients work hand-in-hand to ensure natural prostate health and to protect against prostate cancer. You want to take 200 IU of vitamin E with mixed tocopherols and 100 mcg of selenium daily.", "label": 1}

Do one application, wait a week, then do another if need be, and so on. 3) this product sprays extremely messy, even with the sprayer straw attached. You could never 'hit' a single tiny spot because it splatters. You will need to either a) make a template by putting a tiny hole in a piece of stiff paper/cardboard/plastic and placing it over your 'spot' before spraying or b) buy otoscope tips and use them to guide the spray. After using both, I think a template is the best answer. Be sure to press either of these firmly against your skin before spraying. Overall, I recommend this product because with practice, it WILL work and will save you many $$$$ over a dermatologist treatment for non-cancerous 'barnicles'. But if you don't know what it is (if its not tan colored and you haven't had prior education or experience with an exact looking 'barnicle' or spot) best to see a Dermatologist to be sure what you are dealing with.

If you don't have a first aid kit in your car this would make a great addition. I'd also recommend a flashlight, blanket, and some bottled water.
I would definitely recommend this product to my friends. You can't buy all of this stuff separately for this price.
This kid isn't my favorite out of the three I purchased. It's a very useful kit and has a few unique items that the others don't such as a whistle (one of the others had this), a compass, and a glow stick. This kit has a few items that I feel are not as necessary such as a few wooden tongue depressing sticks and several q-tips. The other kits I purchased had more band-aids and those are what you're likely to use the most of, as well as a bigger variety of band-aid sizes.
I would still recommend this kit. It would make a good car kit and it's only twenty dollars.

Within a few days after starting to take this product, I am able to squeeze out a few additional reps to my heaviest upper body free weight sets. The effect appears disappear within a few days of ceasing to take the recommended daily serving. The only downside to this product (or any other creatine product for that matter) is that is does increase bodyweight by 1-2% almost immediately, presumably through the addition of water weight.
Unlike pure creatine alternatives, Body Fortress High Performance Creatine contains carbohydrates so each suggested serving will contain about 150 calories. Some nutritionists feel that carbohydrates provide a transport vehicle for the creatine molecule. While I have no way of scientifically verifying this, the product sure seems to work better than pure creatine. Additionally, it tastes far superior than pure creatine alternatives which effectively taste like sand. I find the product nice to take in the morning because of sweetness and the stimulant effect of taurine (i.e. key ingredient in Red Bull), which it also contains.
What is especially great about Body Fortress High Performance Creatine product is its extremely reasonable price at approximately $13 per giant container (~two month supply). You can get it at discount retailers such as Target or Wal-Mart for 1/3 the price of similar products at GNC or health clubs.

This pad is thicker than most I've tried and it's heavier. Both of those are caused by the stones that are sewn right into it. Supposedly the jade and other stones help to hold heat longer and the infrared is supposed to help the heat penetrate better. This even comes with a velcro strap and two slots on the back side, so that you can say strap it around your lower back. There's only so much mobility you can get with it though, since it has to stay plugged in.
I have no proof of it, but I do feel like it penetrates better, or maybe it's just that the benefits last a little longer. Usually when I take the heating pad off my back or neck, it's not very long before the pain or stiffness comes back. When I used this pad, it's hours before the pain and stiffness comes back. Maybe it's just in my head, but I don't think so.

In face, it remembers my settings, so that the next time I use it, I just turn it on and it sets itself to my preferred temperature.

Keeps things WAY less smelly, gross, etc. Heals skin. Helps with rashes. Disinfects. Can't recommend enough.
The only issue? The top twists off (not the cap, that pops off, the actual top third of the bottle) and it's a horrible seal. It leaks when the bottle is not upright. I threw this in a bag and it leaked everywhere, albeit slowly.
The solution was easy enough: twist off, wrap top seal with plumbers tape, reseal. Works great. So only 4 stars because they didn't design this bottle with an o-ring. So...buy this. The foaming agent is worth it. Just be prepared that it will leak unless you seal it yourself.
***UPDATE 9/22
So....it's still leaking... On all 3 bottles I have (home use, backcountry use, first aid kit). Now I have tried a new solution. I added MORE plumbers tape but I think the problem is the bottle itself is compressible...like a cheap plastic bottle. So the seal can separate with pressure. Not good if its on its side in a pack with other items shuffling around. So on top of the added tape, I used E6000 industrial strength adhesive to the outside of the seal. Then a layer of leukotape, then a layer of PowerSteel duct tape.
This is a lot of work to get this darn bottle to cease leaking. GET US A BETTER BOTTLE. Downgraded to 2 stars.", "label": 0}

I live in the Southern U.S., and I made the mistake of leaving a vintage leather holster in the open air at the top of my master bedroom closet. That closet is one hall from the master bath (think daily shower mist), and has one outdoor wall (think summer humidity). I'm sure at some point I planned to put that holster in a box, but I never did. Out of sight, blissfully out of mind.
Fast forward to 2? 4? years later, a massive closet cleaning, and I find the holster, covered with green stuff. It was gross. Ugh. Well, OK, I'm up for a challenge. On go the rubber gloves. I get some pieces of old bedsheet, and this product. Honestly, I wasn't even sure this product could \"clean\" - the can isn't exactly covered with instructions - but it was use this product, or toss the holster in the trash can, and I was willing to try (and the vendor says here on the site it does clean, hooray).
And it worked. Not just on the smooth leather, but also on the suede. It was a MIRACLE. I used circular motions, plenty of product on the bedsheet, and the awful looking green stuff is gone - that holster looks as nice as when my grandfather wore it. Nicer, actually.
Hopefully I'll find some box to put it in before I start the whole cycle again. But: for cleaning old leather, it was AMAZING. Haven't used it on anything that wasn't a complete disaster, yet, but if it can take on a 70-year old holster with mold, I'm sure it can cope with a pair of shoes, belt, harness, or jacket.

Many Christmases ago, when I needed something to knock out the cold I was developing, as I had to board a plane in 2 days and knew that high-altitude flights weren't kind to the ears if a person had a stuffy nose. (A friend ruptured an eardrum that way.)
So, I went to my health food store to get echinacea with Golden Seal. They were all out. But the proprietor recommended ARA-Larix to me. Said it was a far better immune system booster than the product I'd come in requesting.
Two days later, I boarded the plan with not even a sniffle. The ARA-Larix stopped that cold in its tracks. I've used it pretty faithfully over the years, and when I remember to take it (one tablet a day during cold&flu season), I avoid getting colds and flu. I missed taking it this year (had been in an auto accident and my injuries were top of mind), and wound up getting very sick.
Anyway, I would highly recommend this product. My health food store friend said she had checked with her physician, who endorsed ARA-Larix and said it could be taken daily (your own physician permitting - it may interact w/ various drugs, so always check); and that if you think you've been exposed to something, you can take 4 pills that day, then cut back to just 1 again.", "label": 1}

What I found here was wholly disappointing.
First of all, and this is on me, these paper towels are a good deal smaller than the big squares you might remember. The listing does call out their size, but if you want full size, don't eyeball it and say \"that looks good enough\". It's not.
Second, and more critically, the quality of the paper towels is extremely poor. They are thin, flimsy and can't clean up much without using quite a few of them. Want to blot grease? Line a plate for fried food? Wipe down a counter? Expect to have to double or triple the sheets in order to actually get the job done, and for the \"line a plate\" task it's even worse because they won't fold and size nicely, one being too small and two to a layer too large. I've received disposable paper napkins from take-out places that would do as good a job or better with most of these tasks. In fact, these paper towels resemble those little napkins more than they do traditional kitchen roll, specifically the extremely thin, somewhat soft ones that tear easily at the least provocation, rather than the stiffer sorts that could actually be handy for anything other than fingers.
It seems as though the makers prioritized softness. Poorly. These things have the worst traits of paper towels and the worst traits of tissue paper, and I certainly won't be buying this flimsy uselessness ever again. If you, like me, just want decent quality, full (not \"selectable\") size paper towel roll, keep looking elsewhere, because this is awkward sizing and terrible quality instead.", "label": 0}

Two stars because they do what they are intended for but everything else about them is pretty terrible. Every way these gloves fail stems from the lining. First, it is ridiculously thick and abundant. I got the correct size gloves but getting my fingers into the holes is difficult because the oh-so-luxuriously soft lining is so plentiful that it blocks them. Once I wiggle my fingers around the lining the gloves fit well. Second, I hope you put on some good music on your phone or a good TV show on your laptop because the lining is so thick that neither a phone's touchscreen nor a laptop's trackpad will register the touch. I've used other dish gloves before with both of these items and have worked fun but I guess unnecessary luxurious lining is more important than practicality. This brings to my third point, I hope you don't get your hands wet after you pry them out of these gloves because that luxury lining is so plentiful that it will soak it right up! I would love to have a pet but mold and mildew in my gloves isn't exactly what I would call sought after. My final point pertains to comfort. No, not the extra luxurious comfort I feel against my skin when wearing them but oh so valued overheating I experience. I love it!

I really like this type of disposable eye masks. Mainly because they have pieces that fit around the ear, not the elastic thing that goes all around your head. If you watch the current video it shows you exactly how to tear on the dotted lines. When you take it out of the package & unfold it, you have to lift the back part from the front (just lightly tug on the 2 pieces & you will see it separating). After I do that, I then tear along the dotted line down the middle of the back portion (if you can see the line clearly enough, you could even cut this part with scissors). Then you tear out pieces on each side for the opening that will go around each ear. The ear openings have 3 sizes to choose from. Granted, it\u2019s somewhat difficult to see exactly where to tear. It would be nice if they had colored stitching to show it better. That being said, after doing it a few times, you pretty much have it mastered.

In the last few weeks I replaced the batteries 3 times, and started to wonder what was going on.
I can see now there are a ton of other negative reviews on this product, and everyone is saying the same thing. The device is defective. At some point, it will start malfunctioning and the sensor that detects whether or not someone has stepped onto it will fail. This will cause a few things:
* Throughout the day, it'll ask you to Step On and it'll loop between Step On and Thinking randomly all day, burning through the batteries
* It will have issues registering when you Step Off of the device, and go into a Step Off/Thinking loop
* It will use up a fresh set of AA batteries due to the above two issues within a week
I contacted customer support for Fitbit, and they had me walk through normal troubleshooting. But after we exhausted the normal stuff (remove batteries to reset, reset with a paper clip, etc) they asked me about replacement. Because the device was out of the 1 year warranty, they basically told me I was out of luck and my option was to purchase a completely new scale at that point.
This is a manufacturing defect, and should be treated as such. I know there is only a 1 year warranty on these (and many other) electronic devices, but the usual thing is that most devices work for years and years, and the warranties are there to fix things that are out of the ordinary that fail in the warranty period.
Forcing customers to buy a new scale every 2 to 3 years is a ridiculous obsolescence policy. I would not recommend anyone purchase Fitbit merchandise as they seem to have systemic quality issues and poor customer support. Buyer beware.", "label": 0}

The berries themselves are coated with a poison that's not too dangerous in small mounts, but the other part of the plants are very bad. Some of the beneficial effects probably lost during the conversion to gummies are fiber for one, that may be an assumption on my part, but they don't list it on the bottle, so it's likely true. I'd say next a certain proportion of the antioxidants are not carried over. Fresh uncooked berries would retain a lot more antioxidants than processed ones. I know from my past history as a juicer, that once the fruit or veggie is juiced the concentration of antioxidants drops very quickly from hours to only a day or so depending on the method.
Still there are a lot of benefits left, from mood enhancing to digestion, to vitamin C, enough of the health benefits remain to want to use an easy way to take Elderberry. This particular version is somewhat unusual as most seem to use blueberry as a flavoring for Elderberry gummies, but this brand uses raspberry. I like that they are sugar coated on the outside as gummies can stick together and be a pain to dig out of the bottle that way. My usual caution is in effect because they taste good and can be harmful if you take too many. Adults should resist eating too many, and put away so your kids don't find a great new gummy candy that can hurt them if they consume the bottle. With these precautions in place.

Before it stopped functioning, it was good. I don\u2019t like that it\u2019s the type with the separate blue/red lights (I prefer the newer style that look pink because they combine both). But the timer function was really nice. I turned it on once at 4:30 and set it for 12 hours. Shut off after ~12 hours and turned itself back on at 4:30ish the next morning. So that was super useful.
Unfortunately after about two weeks the lights suddenly were not bright at all. I\u2019ve attached a photo (please not the ambient light is from surrounding lights\u2014if nothing else was on you would not be able to see anything). They lights were just barely brighter than I\u2019d say \u201cstandby\u201d LED lights on TVs and Bluetooth speakers and such. I tried using the light adjuster but it would go no brighter; and dimming would dim a little and cause to flicker.

This lamp doesn't fit into any of these categories but it's a good lamp. One feature that I like is the 2-light-level switch. I often use the lower level to augment available daylight and the upper level when I'm reading with an overhead light on. I'm not fond of using it as the sole light source. This is partly due to the fact that the light from the lamp looks unusually cold (think of the \"white\", glary headlights of a modern car). And partly it is due to the smallish \"pool\" of light given off by the lamp. If you're reading a book or knitting, a small pool of light works well. For a newspaper, however, not very. Would other lamps work better? Probably not.
Bottom line: Am I happy with it? Yes. I like the little platform thing, which I use for a pad and pen. I like the adjustability of the light (the goose-neck feature, which, because it's a floor lamp, I won't change very often). The whole thing seems sturdy and well-made. I like having two light levels. The diffuser that attaches under the bulb to prevent the light from shining directly in your eyes is also a nice touch.

They made it too tight in hope to lift the shoe but that does not work well either.
AND if you can not get the clip over the shoe it is too hard to use as a shoe horn with the clip. The clip will be in the way if you have to stick the entire end in the shoe. If you have to bend over to pick up the shoe, you might as well use a regular shoe horn.
The clip is the key. Yes it does seem strong enough, but the product gets a 2 out of 5. The clip does not hold a heavy shoe even when it can fit over the lip. The clip can not be pushed over sneakers and wider material shoes when only holding the handle. If you have to bend over to pick up the shoe, the product is nothing more than a funny commercial.
Also the shoedini handle does not collapse very much. You maybe only save 1 foot. I am 5'2\" and I still need it extended all the way so I do not see any benefit to the telescoping handle. In its collapsed state, you gaining much storage ease.
I have bought 2 foot plastic shoe horns in the past. There are other long reach products you can find for less. You do not need shoedini if the feature of the clip can not be used. The clip is what sold me on the idea.

They came packaged in a 'BMC' printed box with a specially made foam insert that perfectly held and protected the polishes for shipping. The caps are smooth, but also pull-off revealing a textured extra-grip cap underneath, which comes in handy. The bottles are not labeled with color names, but instead numbers (corresponding names can be found on the Bundle Monster website). The colors are all beautiful and on-trend, with no odd or unpleasant odor.
As for their performance, I was very pleased! The lighter colors in the set (#15-Sunshine Yellow, #12-Orange Peel, and #21-Electric Pink) are lovely and vibrant, but not completely opaque when stamped over black/very dark polish. However, they looked perfect over all other polishes. The darker colors in the set (#20-Sky Blue and #8-Lucky Green) were impressive when stamped over light and dark polishes alike! And as for #10-Amethyst, it's obviously too dark to show up when stamped on black/very dark polish, but still opaque and looks amazing over every thing else. The formula on ALL the polishes was fantastic: great consistency, creamy but not too thick, and there was no separation. The images you get when stamping with this polish are always crisp. Dry time was great as well, allowing just enough "work time" to get your images aligned and stamped on the nail properly. Finally, I used a variety of different topcoats and had no smearing of the stamping at all, which was really impressive!
Over all, I would definitely recommend these stamping polishes to anyone wanting to add to their stamping polish collection. And at this price point, you need them all! ;)", "label": 1}

I take them along with turmeric supplements as I find that the combination of two known supplement types to help with joint pain reduce or eliminate my pain. These are as good as any other pills of the same time, and possibly better in a few ways. The capsules are pretty standard sized, and they're easy to swallow. That's good, because the suggested serving is four per day. Since I have my joint pain under control (and perhaps because I combine this with another supplement type), I have been able to take three a day without noticing a change in the effects. One of the things I like about these is that they don't taste strongly of anything at all. Some other glucosamine/chondroitin supplements I've taken have tasted strongly of shellfish, or kind of fishy/crabby. This indicates on the bottle that it contains shellfish, but the blend and capsules are put together effectively to eliminate that flavor. I wouldn't necessarily suggest letting the capsule dissolve in your mouth, as the flavor may appear, but when they're swallowed pretty quickly, there's not even the slightest hint of unpleasant flavor.
So, they work, they don't taste fishy, and they seem to be of high quality. That's what I look for in this type of joint supplement. It's worth noting (again) that these contain shellfish (and possibly other animal products), they're likely not acceptable for vegetarians/vegans.", "label": 1}

My father is still very much lucid, but struggles from time to time with remembering details, as well as short term memory issues. I actually had him try Braini for 30 days, and he had experienced some very promising improvements. His memory, as well as his focus had certainly improved. For him, that was something that also translated into an improved mood. That's because his frustrations from forgetting things, could often lead to aggravation. When I saw that there was another opportunity to order more capsules from Braini, I jumped at the opportunity, because I wanted him to continue taking it for longer than just 30 days. He continued to take Braini, and saw an even greater improvement in his abilities for recall, as well as communicating his thoughts without having to search for ideas. Basically, he did notice a positive impact to his cognitive ability, more so after continuing then even during his first 30 day trial. I personally, I'm very pleased with these results, and I know for him, who is going through health issues, something that can improve his cognitive abilities has increased his quality of life.

I've used my new heating pad almost every day or night since it came in. I have bulging disks and mild scoliosis.

One big plus with this heating pad is that it times off in two hours. I like to use the heating pad to go to sleep when my back is hurting, but I don't want it on all night. The auto shut off is something I would not have thought to look for, but I very much like the feature.

However at four tablets per day, to maintain that dosage, I would have to purchase three bottles per month, which I find exceptionally expensive. So at the moment, I'm trying other supplements on the market because I believe there's got to be a similarly effective option without the premium tag.
So bottom line: The supplement is great but I required the maximum dosage to get the most benefits, and averaging $25 for 40 tablets, that equates to the tune of $75 per month ($2.50/day) in a single supplement. But it IS effective. That's why I give it four stars.", "label": 1}

But if this is how things are going to be for a while I wanted to find the most comfortable and well-designed mask out there. After considering the available options I ordered a Buttonsmith mask. The mask arrived in the mail today (a day earlier than expected!). As soon as I opened the package I was sure I made the right choice. The fabric is extremely breathable and soft against my face.
The adjustable straps are cleverly designed and extremely handy. They allow the use of ear loops (which are the most secure way to keep the mask in position), but there is also a strap that allows the mask to hang around the neck if you need to take it off of your face for a few minutes.
At $15 apiece these masks are far from inexpensive, but they are nowhere near the most expensive option. This is certainly not the time for me to skimp on a quality. These mass are worth every penny. I would have bought a few of these masks if they weren't quite so expensive. Having actually received the mask I may go ahead and order another anyway.
My only other issue with the mask is the color. For these first several months of the pandemic I realize that the number one priority was to get masks onto everyone's faces, and that the most efficient way to do that was to produce just the one color. But now it looks like we're all going to be wearing masks for quite a while, At some point it would be nice to have a choice of colors (especially some light colors which would be even cooler still in the summer).
Aside from these few minor issues I recommend that you spend a bit of extra money and buy the Buttonsmith masks with the adjustable straps. They're just what the doctor ordered.", "label": 1}

It does take significant amount of time rubbing it in a circular motion to remove the hair, but it does eventually remove the hair and it does not hurt at all, unlike waxing or using an epilator. Your skin is exfoliated in the process so it is really smooth afterwards. I was able to do one half of my leg from the knee down, on the front, before my arm got too tired so I will do a little each day after my shower until it is all done.
BONUS: it also works on facial hair that I normally get a wax treatment for. I was looking at my lady lip hairs and it reminded me that I need to make an appointment for a wax treatment, then saw this device sitting on the bathroom counter and had a lightbulb moment\u2026would this work on my little bit of random lip hair??? I had just washed my face so I gave it a try and it worked! Again, the exfoliation left my skin feeling smooth and soft, and no little hairs needing to either be plucked or waxed. Because of this along I have upgraded it from 4 stars to 5 stars, now I don\u2019t need to schedule a wax appointment and have my upper lip swollen and red all day after the waxing like it usually is. I had no irritation at all from this device. Saying goodbye to my every couple of weeks painful waxing appointments!
I had my doubts that it would work, or if it did remove the hair it would have my sensitive skin very irritated, but I was wrong on both parts. It worked and my skin was not harmed at all. Kind of a cool device. And cost less than a single waxing appointment too!", "label": 1}

I've been taking it for two weeks now and I have lost 12 lbs already! I'm 41 years old and it usually takes me a month or two at least to lose ten lbs. I take it exactly as directed, always always on an empty stomach. My skin looks amazing! I have had tons of compliments about my skin just glowing and it is so soft and it hasn't looked this good since I was pregnant. I have noticed that I do not crave carbs and junk good like I normally would, and I'm just not very hungry. My stomach has shrunk and I'm just amazed at the results in such a short amount of time. A friend recommended this product to me, since he lost over 70 lbs on it in 1990. He swears by it, but I am always skeptical about miracle products. He told me if I bought it and didn't lose at least 30 lbs, he would give me my money back, that's how sure he was about it working. So I took the keep and ordered a three month supply and I plan on taking it religiously each night. I hVe to say, that even when I lose my last ten lbs, I am still going to use this product just because of the way it makes my skin look and feel. I have had psoriasis for years, and just horrible dry skin and cracked heels no matter what I tried. I just can't say enough about what Calorad has done for my skin. For the people complaining that it doesn't work or they aren't losing weight, I'd be willing to bet money that they are eating a bunch of crap all day and probably not taking it on an empty stomach at night.

I was getting to the point where I was going to have to switch to mostly knitting, as I wrap the yarn around my wrist and finger for that without strain, until I found this device. I don't use it exactly the way they recommend, but the way I use it solves my problem, and I am able to keep my index finger straight. I place the yarn under the velcro bracelet, and under the main part of the ring against my finger (not the little ring on top like they suggest). The combination of these provides perfect tension and I'm able to crochet faster and without pain.
You do need to make sure that your yarn doesn't get caught by the velcro, and if you use the ring the way I do, it occasionally slips out, but these are very minor problems. You also have to keep the ring from small children for both safety reasons and because they find it fascinating. My daughter thinks she's found a treasure if she gets ahold of it, and hides it from me with great amusement. She has also stretched it out some by opening the ring too much (i think it's silicone) and it isn't as tight as it was. As far as safety goes, I think the entire ring is too big for a baby to choke on, but I would worry about the attached little ring being the part that goes in first.

She says it is really comfortable and has really helped her out as she does not suffer from back pain as much and generally just feels better when wearing. This is designed to aid in lessening spinal pressure caused by unbalanced baby weight and even helps with posture. Made of a lightweight, breathable cotton and spandex it is comfortable and offers a great level of support. This is designed to support waists up to 46 inches and is really barely noticeable under clothing.
She has stated that since she has been wearing this she has had less issues with her back and has, in general, just been feeling better. She wears it and then hand washes it and lets it air dry so it is ready to go the next time she is up on her feet a lot. She has stated that she likes the light compression as well as the ability to adjust based on how if feels during the day, and really likes that it does not bunch up or create discomfort.

It was wonderful until it quit working after 9 months. The light just flashes green & it won't let me choose a heat setting (turn it on). I bought a plastic one from Walmart that's last me over 7yrs!!! I like this one bevause it's comfortable, soft & can be washed. Too bad it's \"dead\" now! I know engineers who work for companies to intentionally make products go out after a certain time - mainly after the warranty is up on the item, pretty messed up huh! The warranty on this heating pad is only 90 days.
It gets one star, for keeping my back warm for the months it did last. If your cold, put a heating pad against your lower back & I find it warms the entire body up. It's very comfortable, underneath my lower back. I washed it & it continued working for a bit after that. The lowest setting is sometimes just enough warmth for me... heated up pretty well - WHEN IT *WAS* WORKING!
Does anyone else find it odd that back in 80s an early 90s these types of products lasted SO long... MOST electronics did! And now it's 2019, and you know we've advanced technology wise, so why in the he11 are things not lasting as long as they used to?!

These issues exist, but I believe they are minimal when comparing cost with product.
I find this to be a very good value.
I was impressed at how strong the jets really are. I was expecting much less power from this mat that seems more like a pool toy than a \"spa\".
The pressure was surprisingly strong and massaging.
In fact, my nearby book (which I had intended to read while soaking) went untouched as the only thing I wanted to do while using the spa was close my eyes.
All of the suction cups do not stay in place, this is true -- but I found it was only a minor inconvenience.
I had no problems with the cleaning -- as you need only to spend an extra minute pooling the water near a hole and turning the blower on. This takes no strength, not much time, and really should be expected of any product like this.
Regarding noise. Yes... it is noisy. But so is being in a real jacuzzi tub. In fact, if you had a jacuzzi tub in your home you would be dealing with even more noise.
These things are not quiet.
My biggest single complaint is that you are not supposed to use any kind product in the bath water.
No soap, oils, salts, or gels of any kind should be used.
This means you are not going to be cleaning or moisterizing at the same time you are \"spa-ing\".
Therefore, you might end up bathing twice in an evening.

Also I really like the fact that it's as compact as it is because I've taken it everywhere with me and it's just convenient it's not heavy at all I really like the size of it it's like a water bottle but not as heavy as a water bottle so I like that, the only con that I really have are the only real complaint that I would note is the beeping...ugh... you have an option for how long you leave your hair in the curling chamber it's either 12 seconds 14 seconds 16 seconds or 18 seconds and the idea is that the longer you leave your hair in the curling chamber the tighter the curl is so I usually set in mine to 16 seconds and it beeps in intervals of one second per beep so every curl is beep beep beep 16 times and then you get your next curl going and you have to listen to it all over again,
I would change that I wish there was a setting on here where I could just turn that feature off or just listen to One beep once it's come to the time to release other than that though I really do recommend this product it's an absolute little gem!

I've never had a Sonic toothbrush before, but have used the spin-type ones before that you can buy at the pharmacy or grocery store. They're loud and are ok, but for the most part, at least the ones I've previously bought, you can't just change the brush. You have to throw the entire unit away and replace it when it wears out.
First of all... Make sure you charge it before you use it the first time. It comes with 2 brush heads. Replacements can be purchased here for around 10 bucks, or so. Not bad.
Secondly... It's quiet! It doesn't sound like a jackhammer in your mouth. Such a nice and welcome change. I wasn't expecting it to be so quiet, so this was an added bonus.
Thirdly... There are 5 different settings to play around with and choose from. Try each of them out, and decide for yourself which one works best for you.
There's a pre-set 2 minute timer in it that briefly stops the brush every 30 seconds to indicate moving to a different part of your mouth. Divide the areas in your mouth into 4 and each time the brush stops, move to the next area. I really enjoy this feature. It ensures that you're brushing for 2 minutes. In the past, I thought I'd been brushing long enough, but now that it's being timed? I know I wasn't.
I've never had a Sonicare, or the fancy Oral B ones before, so I can't compare this brush to those, but this one FAR out-performs the spin-type brushes. My teeth have never felt cleaner. I really does feel like I've had my teeth professionally cleaned at the dentists.

Then all I had to worry about was using just enough TP to dry off. Then I got these washable bamboo makeup removers that fit nicely in a little ceramic pot on the back of my toilet, and they work great for drying off. Not only that, when used with a low-sudsing feminine wash, I can wash my private parts as needed and cut down on how often I waste water bathing.
For someone who is retired with little activity and very dry skin, there really is no need to bathe more than once a week as long as the privates are washed daily. I like that I can do this while sitting on the toilet and not risk a fall (I have osteoporosis) getting in and out of the tub. Besides, I hear a number of celebrities are now advocating not bathing very frequently, so I must be cool!
I got two packs of 16 makeup removers each, and each pack comes with a nice mesh bag for washing the rounds in the washing machine. So I keep a bag beside the toilet to hold the ones I've used, and when the clean ones are all gone, I just start on the second pack while the other is in the wash. The little bit of soap left on each used round prevents it from getting groady until wash time.

I have noticed fewer wrinkles especially around my eye area and more hydrated skin since taking Hyaluronic Acid. I especially like Pure Science products because they are effective and safe. They are manufactured by a GMP facility in the United States and distributed by Pure Science Supplements Limited in Fargo, North Dakota. Theis bottle contains 50 vegetarian capsules containing 60 mg. of Hyaluronic acid plus 460 mg. MSM in each capsule. That is why I really like these Hyaluronic Acid capsules since MSM is a supplement that is used for an arthritis diet to treat arthritis or osteoarthritis and degenerative joint disease. MSM helps form the connective tissue and repair the joints, tendons, an ligaments. MSM is necessary for collagen production which will in turn help sagging skin, wrinkles and dry skin. It helps produce flexible skin. It can also help the thickness of hair and nails. It is considered to be a powerful anti-inflammatory due to its ability to allow metabolic wastes to be removed from the cells. MSM can also be enhanced by taking Vitamin C, which I always take along with Pure Science Hyaluronic Acid. Hyaluronic Acid acts as a cushion and lubricant to the tissues and joints. I'm so glad I found the combination of both Hyaluronic Acid and MSM as the older I get, the more my tissues need the extra collagen production to lubricate the tissues and joints.", "label": 1}

To start, these heels weren\u2019t uncomfortable in the first place, but the balls of my feet would eventually get pretty typical soreness from the hard insole of the shoe. Not to the point of blisters, but just to the point where after a walk or taking the stairs id feel the need to sit and adjust my feet.
I placed these in my heels and we were off. They make my shoes fit just a bit tighter, but they don\u2019t hurt at all and they certainly don\u2019t slide around at all now. The padding was noticeable instantly! My heel felt more comfortable and the ball of my foot was on a bit of a cushioned area. The insole doesn\u2019t go long enough to have the toes sit on it, but that didn\u2019t make any difference for comfort of functionality, just a mention.
While walking around I noticed that the gel seemed to move just a little, upon further inspection it\u2019s one of those massaging pads. It was nice.

The toner contains a SOOTHING SKIN DUO that includes Marshmallow Extract and Niacinamide. Marshmallow root extract has anti-inflammatory properties that soothe irritated skin, while niacinamide reduces skin sensitivity by strengthening the skin barrier. This dynamic duo helps in boosting skin barrier essential components such as ceramides +34% and free fatty acids +67%.
Moreover, the product contains POWERHOUSE ACTIVES, including ACB Fruit Extract that has natural AHAs like Lactic Acid, Glycolic Acid, and Malic and Tartaric Acids that gently exfoliate and moisturize your skin, revealing a rejuvenated complexion. It also enhances collagen production, reverses signs of aging, brightens dull skin, and softens and smoothens the skin, while reducing the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles.
Another advantage of using this toner is its ability to strengthen the skin barrier. Niacinamide promotes essential skin structure components such as collagen and fatty acids, while Hyaluronic Acid (HA) boosts the skin's moisture barrier, preventing skin dryness that could weaken the skin.
Lastly, Sand & Sky is a brand that follows a zero nasties policy. The toner is made in Australia using natural and organic ingredients, cruelty-free, paraben-free, gluten-free, and 100% vegan, making it a natural skincare solution that works wonders for your skin.
Overall, I am very pleased with this product, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a natural and effective toner.", "label": 1}

I know this type of technology used to be expensive but now these things are so much more affordable and convenient. This one can be worn as a wrap around your waist/body so you don't have to be in one place when using this. I do recommend using a portable charging power bank, like the ones you use for cell phones, that way you have more freedom of movement. If you plan to use this lying down you can just use the plug that comes with this.
Due to a move where I had to pack hundreds of boxes, my entire body was sore and cramped. This really helped relieve some tension I had until I could get some free time to get a massage. I was surprised this worked because it is something so simple (in a sense) yet effective. It was comfortable to wear, I didn't feel like I wanted to take it off or anything like that. You can even choose the power, timer, pulse, etc.
Overall I was pleasantly surprised at the results. This to me are like those heating pads, which I also use for my soreness and cramps. I am happy with this and will be using it continuously for any cramps and muscle soreness I have.

This cushion lives up to it's promises. It truly is quite amazing, but there are few disappointments, I found. First of all, the dimensions are NOT as stated. Mine measures 17 x 14.5 x2, not 18 x 16. I guess they cover themselves by stating "approximately". Unfortunately, the dimensions are what I take issue with. The width (front to back) really needs to be about 3 inches longer. When placed on my already too shallow car seat, a few more inches below the thigh to the knee would make a tremendous difference in comfort. And again, I'm a small person. As others have stated, don't expect a big ol' cush of a feeling. The Royal Purple is soft, firm, and truly supportive.

These large bags have a horizontal orientation (more width than height) that makes them great for gifting items such as shoes, clothing items like robes or sweat outfits, home goods and gourmet food, a kitchen tool set with mitts, small appliances, toys, books, blow dryers and all kinds of things.

I began to develop sore points on the bottom. Then one day the Purple commercial popped up on my computer screen, complete with the "egg test" and Goldilocks. I was interested. Checked out the site. Did not believe their claims, but I was willing to try anything. Received the chair pad in record time. opened it that night after a long sore day at my desk. I thought that the rubbery, sticky, purple mess was just a scam. Placed it in the cover as instructed, and sat down. Much to my surprise, even after already being sore from working all day, I detected some relief. The following day, using the Purple pad at the outset, any residual discomfort resolved and I was able to complete my tasks without the pain! What a relief.

These are AMAZING!
They were super easy to place after figuring out the best placement for me on a shoe's insole on my first pair. To do that, I stuck an unpeeled pair of these in a pair of flats and walked around until I got them to the right placement. I then carefully popped my foot out and placed each where they were when I pulled out. For every shoe after that (including some flat boots that would have been difficult to place if I'd done them first) I just used the first pair of flats as a template and put the inserts on the same spot of the insole as the ones in the first pair of flats are. It seems a little complex when written out, but it is honestly very simple when doing it.
I've put them in two pairs of boots and two pairs of flats, so far. I've used both the blue gels, one of the clear, and one of the tan fabric. I like the feel under my foot of the tan fabric one the most. They can slip a bit while wearing them (probably especially with it being summer) but they all work great for my needs and especially for the cost.

I put it in my kids bathroom and they have not complained yet. Either they don't use it or they don't mind the shedding.
Edit - I posted my 3 star review (above) on a whim. Adam, the owner of Latherwhip, was very concerned about the shedding issue and gave me a refund after I told him that I did not mind the problem and it was good enough.

You can't beat this level of customer service. I am going to give the brush another try. Hopefully, I will follow up with my results. If you are the fence about this product, give it try, the customer service is excellent.
12/28/15 - Received my new brush today and gave it a try. I gave the gold level treatment. I soaked it in hot water along with pre-shave oil, a mixing bowel and a tube of Bigelow shave cream. The brand new brush left a few small bristles in the mixing bowel, as expected. I did not get any bristles on my face. So far so good.

Due to the size and shape of this set, 'you may need to use a little lube depending on your natural lubricant, but insertion is a breeze. I did have a little trouble getting the second set in due to the cord in the middle, but once you figure that out, it's simple! Merely hold the first ball and pop that in, then hold the second and pop that in. Once they're in properly there is no discomfort but you can feel it. I find that the retrieval strings on this set are a bit too stretchy for my comfort, but I haven't had any rips, tears, or stress show up on them yet. The strings stretch to about double their length and get thinner near the base of the ball. This may be a problem in the future, but at this time, it is not.
The smaller, or single ball, is the lightest option and should be used for a couple of weeks before advancing to the second set. It is simple to insert and may feel weird if you aren't used to wearing them. The second set is heavier and should be worn after you feel like you aren't advancing with the first one anymore. There is a seam running down the length of both sets and ridges, like a tennis ball, around the balls, but you can't feel these when they are inserted.

I purchased this based on lots of online research of the bewildering number of products and advice out there. I just finished mixing and spraying 5 one-gallon solutions of Komodo on exterior decking using my 1 gallon pump up sprayer.
The company customer service via email and phone was responsive and helpful. The product arrived very quickly. Application instructions are mostly via scanning a QR code and watching two short videos which were marginally useful. Detailed written instructions with photos would be better, imho. The 5 lb bag is not ziplocked and has no measurement devices, so I weighed out 1 lb using a household scale and banded the remaining bag shut. I am an experienced sprayer and my sprayer was clean prior to use. I mixed the solution thoroughly but still found the spraying to be annoying in that the spray tip periodically clogged up with some sort of debris or substance in the mix. Aside from that, the spray went on well onto my old redwood deck and fir subframing. I felt it was odorless and non-irritating. Once dried it left the expected hint of whitish speckled residue, which I used for a guide for where I have gone. Overspray was not a concern given its lack of toxicity but I rinsed patio walls/concrete off with water anyway. Given the relative ease of use, I will probably buy more.
The biggest question mark with this (and any fire retardant application) is whether or not it \"works.\" I wish there was a good way to test the effectiveness of my application. For me it is almost an act of faith, and it also makes me feel like I did \"something\" to deal with the wildfire season upon us. Any guidance on home testing is appreciated.

It says on the container that they work 30% better than toilet paper, I'd say it's 100% better! My mom is in a nursing home right now, and goes on a bedpan frequently, and when she didn't have these wipes, the nurses used regular toilet paper to clean her afterwards, which left her sensitive and thinning skin with redness, irritation and itching. These wipes are a miracle for her. The nurses have told other patient's families and these wipes are popping up in all the other rooms now too. They are trying to get it approved as a covered supply for their patients.
My daughter who is 8 has bowel troubles, and frequently has loose and acidic stools, and when she was at school, would have a terrible time trying to clean herself. She know keeps a pack in her locker and it's made a huge difference in her school bathroom time. Before the wipes, she couldn't always get clean enough and we would struggle with soreness, redness and rashes every night, despite her daily bath.
I used them too, and they are especially helpful during my monthly period, because when you are at work you can have break-through bleeding, and when I go to the bathroom to clean up, these wipes are very handy, and then can get flushed after I am done cleaning.
We order these wipes once or twice a month, and there is a packet of them in every bathroom, in my purse, my daughter's backpack, and in both cars. They are fabulous!", "label": 1}

When i unpacked it at lunch, there wasn't even a drip that came out of it. for me, that's important. i take fruit to work every day and also pack fruit for my whole family. i use smaller bags for them but i was treating some coworkers so i needed a large bag like this. i used a bag to store some soft pretzels and put them in the freezer. you really can't go wrong with ziploc. the only thing different is the logo on the bag. it's really a beautiful star, dallas cowboys star. if you are a dallas fan or know one, this would be a great gift for them. what i like about ziploc bags is the zipper. i have had others that the zipper gets stuck and i land up breaking it and the bag is useless. i used 4 of these bags and the zipper was easy open, and easy close and strong. i have broken zippers by tugging too hard also. these are great bags. this is my normal brand that i buy and have always bought, without the dallas star lol", "label": 1}

I started them a couple weeks prior, though. I wanted to see if I could feel their effects that early. The first day I took them I actually felt my sinuses moving-like clearing! I think I may have been fighting off a cold or was having sinus troubles but I never actually got sick or any kind of sinus infection so...maybe the probiotics kept me from actually getting worse (?)...I don't really know but I am assuming they helped!
Vacation went fabulously and I feel the probiotics were a big part of that! I'm going to continue to take these beyond just for vacation, while I'm continuing to educate myself and healing this gut of mine! I'm seriously feeling REALLY GOOD and it's a consistent kind of good!
I'll have to do an "update" at some point though, as I've had a weird skin issue that could have come from my previous intakes of high carbs so....(eek) maybe probiotics and whole organic foods will be the KEY to healing!!!
My biggest advice (that I would also give to a best friend) is to always educate the self, pay attention to what OUR individual bodies respond best to, and maybe give these probiotics a try!
5 stars because I still feel these probiotics working on my sinuses and because I've been feeling constantly good physically, mentally and emotionally!

The fabric appears to be 100% cotton (although this is the first product I've seen without a laundry and materials tag). It features a nice strap on the rear that could be used to hang on a hook. There is indeed a zippered place for a cell phone or wallet, but they chose to make the zipper into a triangle shape - and it won't hold my HTC M9 in an Otterbox Defender case (too small). That is OK with me, because I would not want my phone or wallet to be in what is basically a towel intended to get wet and sweaty! However, I suppose it would be useful for those with smaller phones doing yoga or other things like that where you could use the other end to wipe sweat.
The shape confused me for a minute, until I realized that the intent is to wrap it around your neck while you exercise. It works well in this use, although I would think that a phone would be a bit too heavy carried this way. However, it does do a good job of getting you dry rapidly. There are no washing instructions, but I plan to use cold water with a normal dry.
Summary: Good for light impact workouts like walking where you can loop it around your neck. Highly recommended for this use.

If any of you are not aware, I am all about natural remedies before trying man made medicines. Sprouts cold remedy is a blend of all natural herbs to relieve cold symptoms.
This blend contains Echinacea, red root, green tea leaf, elderberry fruit, thyme, red clover, myrrh gum, orange peel, mullein leaf and ginger root. Some of these are pretty popular, others I have not heard much about. Echinacea, green tea, elderberry, and ginger are all fairly well known for their ability to boost the immune system and reduce cold and flu symptoms.
The recommendation is to take 1 ml (25 drops) 1-2 times a day at the onset of symptoms. I unfortunately forgot I had these when I first started getting a head cold. Once I remembered I had this cold remedy I started taking it in larger amounts for the first day. I tried the recommended amount of one dropper full, every 4 hours. I can say, the taste isn't great but it isn't a deal breaker. I added some with some juice and chugged it. I am happy to say the next day my symptoms, though not gone, were considerably better. I continued to take this cold remedy in conjunction with vitamin c and within 2 days I was feeling better.
I have a susceptibility to getting bronchitis or upper respiratory infections so when I started getting better and my cold didn't get any worse, I was a believer.

It will brighten your entire desk while typing and is perfect to use while reading on the couch, in your favorite chair or basically anywhere you choose. Even while working on projects like knitting, puzzles or crafts, this light is very helpful. I bought this for my husband for Christmas and keep stealing it while I'm reviewing.
This makes a perfect gift for anyone who loves to read. My husband loves it because it makes maps look especially bright and clear. He says the colors stand out more and I love the way it brings out the text in books. If you don't want to move this from room to room (although it is not too heavy), buy two or one for each desk or one for the office and even the bedroom.
I could use at least three of these around the house because I rarely stay in one room for very long. Some of the ways I've used this lamp is to see when reading, but you can also brighten a room by pointing the lamp at the ceiling. The super flexible arm allows the light to point in any direction. There are also two brightness levels so you can decide on the brightness you prefer. The advantages of this light include:
Reduced Eyestrain
Less Glare - the light has a special glare reducing Parabolic grid that covers
the light bulb
Energy Efficient
Long lasting 27 Watt bulb - Flicker free bright white light that simulates natural daylight.
A free utility tray was included and can be attached and removed very easily. Perfect if you want to leave your reading glasses or a pen and paper by the lamp. I wasn't sure how this style of lamp would fit into my home, but it actually looks good in every room.

Yes Really!!! i put a drop in my refrigerator to keep it smelling fresh & also in my wastebaskets. That's why you need the dropper-you don't want to overdo it. Sometimes, I put a drop on my dirty clothes just to keep them fresh-smelling until I get around to washing them. Also a drop or two in the washing machine. And a drop in my kitchen drain if It isn't smelling fresh. Also on my dryer balls.
If you plan on using on you skin-you Have to use a carrier oil to dilute this oil. This is some really pure strong oil. Jojoba oil or one of the many carriers-almond oil, walnut oil, avocado oil. There are many carrier oils. You can add it also to your home-made lotions, etc. or add a drop to store bought lotions.
If you have ever been suckered into buying a 1/2 ounce bottle of essential oil from one of the multi-level marketing parties, you will be so excited to discover Radha Beauty Products.

Enter Ethique Natural Deodorant. I am on month three of using Ethique and NO skin reactions! 100% normal lymph nodes! No stinky pits! It's miraculous!!
As with the majority of truly natural deodorants, application takes a moment longer than traditional antiperspirants. In cold weather, the bar must be warmed a bit to soften it for ease of application. This might be by simply keeping it close to a steamy shower or holding it against your skin for a few moments. Easy enough to do. It goes on creamy and smooth, much easier than a lot of brands I've tried. If you use too much, just rub the excess into the skin with bare fingers and it disappears.
Typically doesn't show on clothing but I have had some incidents where I applied too much and it rubbed off on my clothes (a little goes a long way). Unlike the antiperspirants I used years ago, Ethique washes out easily. No pit stains.

They are ankle-length, and stay up well without exerting any noticeable pressure on the ankles to do so.
Advertised as keeping feet cool, I was worried about the opposite, as my feet tend to get cold before the rest of me. So far, no problems in that regard. These mostly-cotton socks gave me enough warmth, while still feeling well ventilated.
Happily, the socks did not shrink noticeably when washed and machine-dried, another plus.
The appearance of the socks is dressy enough for work or church, but also fine with jeans or sweats.
Overall, a very fine pair of socks I look forward to wearing regularly. Recommended.
Update 6/18/19: Amazon also sent me a pair of these same socks in size Extra Large to review, as sometimes that's a better size for me.
The larger size easily accommodates my size 10 feet, with plenty of expansion room, but no unwanted fabric bunching up. (Note: my size 10 feet are within the recommended size range for both the Large and Extra Large versions of these pairs of socks.)

I don't give five star reviews for anything short of perfection and, to be honest, this is close. Its simple, secure, well-made and well-sized. In fact, it's a bit like Hermione's purse from Harry Potter: Dramatically bigger inside than it looks outside. What fits in this thing? Everything. Although this feels smaller than most of the other 28-slot boxes, it holds dramatically more.
This box is easy to use for those with serious arthritis, with no \"pop\" lids or fussy small parts. The individual days come all the way out, and the lids slide smoothly. The labelling is obvious and intuitive. The construction is sturdy. The whole thing, unlike virtually any competitor, is perfect for travelling as the pills simply have no escape -- no more shuffling through the bottom of the bag for the stray pills. Lastly, there is nothing to break here. No little \"keep it closed\" tabs to snap off, no hinges to crack, no inserts to warps.
So how is this not a candidate for perfection? Several of the big benefits have minor drawbacks. Most importantly, none of the pieces are attached. Whilst this makes filling and using the box easier than any other similar product, it also makes it easier to mislay \"today's\" container between morning and night, or to lose the clear cover if you slide it all the way off.
Overall (checking Amazon history now), we've tried fourteen different pill boxes over the years. No other comes close to the mix of great features without major drawbacks. I honestly do not think there is a better option on the market.", "label": 1}

While we already have some bigger pieces, we also wanted to supplement them with things like a jump rope. I was very surprised at how lightweight this jump rope was when it arrived, but at the same time the weight didn't prevent its performance. It can go fast! Currently I have a jump rope at home that came free with a weighted ball and it was also very lightweight. However, that particular jump rope is very hard to use. The "rope" part of it is wrapped in rubber and doesn't straighten out all the way. It is also hard to get a fast rate going. I often felt like I was just skip jumping like a child. That wasn't the case with this jump rope. The cable stays straight and allows it to move fast. I also liked that it can be adjusted to size by sliding the screws down and cutting it (though it does require a hacksaw or wire cutter to cut through the cable) and they have included easy instructions to do that. The handles have a good grip and allow it to swing nicely. It coils up nice and small so it can easily be brought along to workout outside or at the gym.

Still the best callus remover I have ever found. Absolutely 100% recommend. Before purchasing this I had nearly constant foot pain, and nothing I found could adequately deal with my calluses. Since I bought this, my problem has been solved.
The few negative reviews all site the same basic complaint: It is not powerful enough. That is due to the power supply that they chose to include. It has ample power at full speed, but the power drops off as you slow it down, and even slightly below full speed it becomes unusable. To me that is not an issue. I prefer it at full speed anyway, but for others it might be an issue.
They claim the new version addresses the problem. I don't know if that is true or not, but I would still not hesitate to recommend this.
--- Original Review ---
By far the best callous remover I have found. Mechanically, it is very simple and should be reliable. The consumables are dirt cheap and easy to use. And it just works. My feet are in better shape than they have been in in years.
The not quite perfect:
* Having the power switch and speed control on the cord is annoying. It works, but it is a pain to use. Personally,.I only use it at full speed, so it is not a huge deal. The bigger issue is that if the wall wart fails, you just replace it with a standard power supply. Integrating the speed controller into the device would make it far more reliable.
* For most parts of my foot, the design is great, but it would be nice if it had a sort of pistol grip handle to reach the callouses on the bottom of my foot.
Neither of these issues are deal breakers. I've tried the Emjoi and similar callous removers and different manual tools, but this works far better.", "label": 1}

Along with the Glucosamine, VIVA LABS has included MSM (aka methylsulfonylmethane, aka DMSO), which is the biologically available form of sulfur. Why Sulfur? Because its effective on reducing the pain of osteoarthritis, as well as stress from endurance exercise, rosacea, hemorrhoids, even possibly improving exercise performance, and varicose veins. I've tried a lot of VIVA LABS products, and have consistently been pleased. Its a name I trust.
The company gave me a bottle the product to try out, and then write my honest appraisal. If I get arthritis in 20 years even if I took this every day, I'll come back and update my review. So check back here in 2035, if you want to discover if this stuff really worked.", "label": 1}

PLUS
+Packaged in attractive black box, nice gift presentation
+Mask is comfortable with cut-out wells for eyes
+Strap is elasticized but soft and flexible with velcro adjustment
+Good instructions that are clearly written, with hint to wait 5 minutes after wearing mask before jumping up too quickly, since sudden changes in heat and light can cause eye discomfort and headache
+Long (52-inch) USB cord gives adequate length for most situations; also cord is soft and flexible
+100% block out of light
MINUS
-You have to launder the whole outer layer that has the connectivity socket (I put little cotton pads inside the eye areas of my mask since I have blepharitis - that prevents contamination, plus I can just discard the cotton pads after I finish wearing the mask and not have to launder the mask so often)
-Majority of heat in the mask goes to raised area around the eyes rather than the eyeball-area (since little wells are cut out for the eye areas); this makes the mask comfortable and is good for relaxing and for migraines but I need the heat to be more concentrated on the eyelids, so not as helpful for my specific situation. However, I found it helpful to wear the mask somewhat backwards by putting the pink-colored side against my eyes instead of the side with the cut-out areas. By wearing the reverse side against my eyes, I get more direct heat.
-There is a USB cord but no electric plug.", "label": 1}

Habitual biters like mosquitoes, fleas, ticks and chiggers; occasional biters like ants, horse flies, spider wasps (the worst!) and spiders - they've all found me apparently tasty and visited me more than once.
My big issue with these bites is the subsequent itch - apparently I scratch even in my sleep and make the whole experience as long lasting as possible. As a child, people would approach my family asking what was wrong with this poor spotty child. And even now I have a fire ant bite that has itched like, well, fire, for over two weeks.
So I was excited to find this product, and excited to try it. And I'm surprised to say it works! Actually reduces puffiness and redness, and wonder of wonder, stops the itch. I would have forgotten I had the bite entirely if it weren't for the unfortunate (to me) scent of the product. Because the product does have a distinct scent.
The ingredients of the product are Echinacea 30C (coneflower), Apple Cider Vinegar, Bentonite Clay, Coneflower, Lemongrass Essential Oil, Alcohol. That Lemongrass scent is quite strong.
Like 1Billion people (in 2021), of whom 3:1 are women, I suffer from chronic migraine headaches, and like 95% of those, I have a hyper-sensitive sense of smell. Normally essential oils are great, in fact, peppermint and eucalyptus are used to ease migraines, but lemongrass is one of my triggers. I'm lucky that my bites are generally on my legs; provided I use this carefully, I hope to continue using this working (again, seriously amazing) product.
And, perhaps at some point the manufacturer will make an unscented version so I can use it liberally as I need to.", "label": 1}

They're incredibly strong and durable, with tight bonding that ensures the pouf won't quickly stretch out or fall apart. Each does a great job washing /exfoliating skin (all skin types!) and produce a nice lather with soap or body wash. I have terribly dry, sensitive skin and these poufs do not irritate or scratch my skin in any way. All 3 are comfortable to use. They even have small rope so the pouf can be hung up when not in use. The colors are nice as well. I love the plastic zipper bag the poufs come in. It serves as an excellent storage bag to hold the poufs until they're used. I was seriously shocked at the price. For as high quality and well made as these poufs are, I would have expected them to cost far more! There's a pouf for everyone's preference.

I still like to try to stay active but there are times, especially when it rains or the air is thick with humidity that it is uncomfortable and my knees hurt. I had another pair of copper knee sleeves but over the years they have worn out and the elastic doesn't keep them up on my legs well anymore.
These sleeves are very beneficial during outings when I know I'm going to be walking a lot and when I go for a run. I do notice that I can go longer without the twinges of pain kicking my butt. Or wearing them the day after I've done too much helps them recover much faster and gives them some relief. I also like these for the added warmth for my joints during the cold winter months. These sleeves definitely dont offer as much support as some others I've tried tho so if you need a lot of compression you may want a smaller size or different brand, but for my needs they work well.
These sleeves are a great alternative to a full on brace for regular use. They offer more mobility and they are much much more comfortable to wear. I can even wear these under my clothes and they aren't noticed. The material breathes well and has great flexibility. I ordered the large and they are tight enough to stay gripped. But not too tight. At the top of the sleeve there are elastic gel-like strips that hold well on your thighs. The stitching is well done and these should holds up for many uses.

If you have curly ringlets, this isn't going to make your hair pin straight. However, in my experience it works just as well as a straightener does. I have medium to thick hair that reaches down to nipple length, and this brush works great!
I like it better than my straightener for two main reasons:
1. It is super easy to use. Obviously, you aren't squeezing your hair between two plates, so its less effort on your part.
2. Temperature control. You control what temperature setting you want which I think is super convenient.
If you're going to buy an Apalus striaghtening brush, I would recommend this one over the "original' brush. I believe this one costs about $10 more than the original, but in my opinion it is completely worth it. This one has a locking feature so you don't accidentally change temperature or turn off the brush while you're using it. It also does NOT have the rubber tips that the original one has, so it pulls out virtually no hair.
One thing to keep in mind when using it (especially if you have thick hair) is that it works much better if you portion your hair into sections. I usually section my hair into bottom, middle, and top layers. This ensures that every section of your hair is straight and gives you a better result.
Also, I see that some people when reviewing products get discounts or whatnot... As cool as that would be, I'm just a normal person who really loves their new straightening brush. Sadly, I paid full price for mine.", "label": 1}

It's the only \"contraception\" (i.e., natural family-planning method) my husband & I have ever used, and we've been married over a year without pregnancy. [2013 update: we've been married over two years now and still no pregnancy, LC works great]
This little computer is so effective at learning my cycle that a day before my period it flashes a blinking \"M\" to alert me that I will menstruate soon. It's very accurate. I have irregular cycles, yet LC is smart enough to take that into account and still pinpoint my ovulation day.
Supposing you take your temperature with LC daily as instructed (which is then stored in its memory), my personal conviction is that, barring a miracle, it's impossible to conceive when LC gives a green light after your ovulation.
With LC, a green light means \"Go ahead; you're not fertile,\" a red light means \"Wait! You're fertile!\" and a yellow light means \"You might be fertile. If you don't want to conceive right now, you should wait until it's green.\"
My husband & I purchased our LC from RaxMedical; their customer service is unparalleled. A staff member instructed me over the phone how to enter my data into LC and answered all my questions.
I have never used any other method because for me it was never an option to put something in my body (such as the pill, IUDs, injections, etc.) that would negatively affect my reproductive health. With LC my health, hormones, and fertility are intact. It's a completely natural method, yet with a high-tech twist.
LC is slightly larger than a DVD in circumference. It looks like a little flying saucer, especially when its light is blinking :o)

So I applied this roll-on to my hands. Instantly my hands stopped itching completely! They felt cool and tingly. The calmness of my hands lasted for quite a bit of time too. Then I reapplied it again for relief. It also made my hands look better too. The redness was gone and the little itchy bumps had subsided quite a bit.

As for pain \u2013 sure enough, a few days later my back was acting up so I applied this roll-on. I must say I do wish it didn\u2019t roll on as \u201cwet\u201d as it does.

I noticed a dramatic and immediate improvement in my workouts, which consist primarily of power lifting, kettle bells, and high intensity interval training. My strength, stamina, and recovery time have improved by just over 20% in the past month. For a high performance athlete, these types of improvements are simply remarkable.
As a part-time personal trainer, I also use the spray on my clients and have noticed similar results. Two of them have already ordered their own supply!
I have also noticed significant gains in my work performance at my day job. Things seem simpler to do and I've been breezing through my workload with ease. The Power spray keeps me focused and centered throughout the day, and has virtually demolished the annoying habit of procrastination from my work routine.
Of note is the importance of aligning one's intent with the spray upon application. If I just spray it without thinking about it, I do see some of the effects/benefits, but nothing near what I experience when I consciously align my intent. If you're not seeing the results you want, make sure to follow the 30-second intention exercise described on the card that comes with the sprays. This makes all the difference.

These portable flossers are great. They deliver a very powerful stream of water to the teeth and gum line which easily pushes away food particles on and in between teeth. They are so powerful in fact that they rival the Waterpik units that have become a staple of bathroom hygiene for so many years.
This flosser by Miracleplus deserves the professional moniker. It is well constructed and (as I mentioned) quite powerful. It's also very simple to use: charge the flosser with the USB cable (power brick not included) and then fill the reservoir tank with water.
This kit includes 5 different snap-in nozzles, one of which is a tongue scraper. There are five different power modes to deliver water to your teeth, one of which is a nice massage burst and the other designed for softer delivery for sensitive teeth.
The inclusion of a digital readout is a nice added touch. It not only displays the currently selected power mode but also the remaining battery level.
What I love about this and similar flossers is that you get about the same amount of water power delivered to your teeth in this portable unit as you do with the larger home ones. At the same time, it's portable enough to simply throw this into your suitcase or an overnight bag.
If you have never owned a portable flosser before I think you'll be really surprised how much water power these units deliver to your teeth. It's certainly a quicker and more fun way to floss than using string between your fingers.
This looks to be a very capable, well-constructed flosser that should stand up to a rigorous amount of use both in your suitcase and in your bathroom. Don't think twice about purchasing.", "label": 1}

Not only that years ago I was treated for Lyme disease. My heavy metals were tested and my Lead and Mercury were off the chart. While at an amazing clinic I was also treated with chelation therapy to reduce my heavy metals. By the time I left my Lead and Mercury were about 1/2 of what they had been, but were still way too high. I came home bought an IV pkg from a local Dr. but they made me wait 4 months before I could start chelation therapy again. During that time I was taking 5-7 of these a day to help with my energy. I had read that this can remove heavy metals, but??? how effectively. When the Dr. finally had time to see me 4 months later and they tested me for Heavy metals they were all but gone!!! This stuff had pulled the rest of them out of my system. The $1,000 I paid just had to be used for the occasional Vitamin C IV, because no one ever refunds money. Now, the thing about heavy metals is that they can get into every cell so you clean out the blood and other stores will be released. Meaning it might take years and years to completely remove all of the heavy metals depending upon how long you had mercury in your mouth, how much, or how long you were exposed to other things. If you are using it for anything other than as an iodine source you might want to have your Heavy Metals tested to check your progress. I have not had my heavy metals tested in years, but this product helps to give me energy and helps me to feel good so I continue to take 3-5 per day.

What I really liked is they are so nice you can wear them out to a nice evening dinner with the classic little black dress but yet they are casual enough looking if you pair them with your favorite top and jeans to look just as good, it all just depends on what look you are going for at anytime as these literally will go with anything you like.The set boasts 5 different chokers from simple velvet chokers to spiral style to a long lanyard style with silver tone tips that you can wrap around your neck several times and make a bow in the front or let the stripes dangle down your back for more of an evening look. The set also comes with five different accent pendants that can be used with two of the styles of chokers so you really are getting the possibility of over 15 different looks all with one set of chokers. Each one has their own unique look so you do not look like you are wearing the same choker day in and day out and the additional pendants make a beautiful accent that hits right in the middle of your throat so it hangs just right. This set is a perfect gift as it comes beautifully packaged in a black cardboard jewelry box that makes it look like a much more expensive item than it is. I know my sister in law is going to be thrilled to have this set and I am sure I will get photos of each new and different look she creates.", "label": 1}

I wanted one that did not require batteries, but I thought the electric ones were just too expensive, so I decided on this rechargeable one. I am so glad I bought it!! And so are my socks! My heels were so bad, they were wearing holes in my socks in just a few wearings. Admittedly, I was a little hesitant but now I wish I had had one of these all along. I have suffered with the thick, rhino skin and the cracking on my feet to the point of not being able to walk without pain.This little device is great!!

A word of advice to anyone who has not been happy with theirs...
#1 BE PATIENT. The calluses didn't just appear overnight, they are not going to come off all at once and you don't want to make your feet sore. If your calluses are really thick, it might take a couple of sessions.
#2 Don't press too hard. Yes the head stops when you push too hard. It is for your skin; it's supposed to be gentle, it's not going to work like a belt sander. You're not sanding a piece of oak.
#3 Don't use it immediately after bathing - your skin is too soft. Your feet should be clean but TOTALLY dry.
#4 After use, wipe down your feet with a warm damp cloth, gently apply some GOOD lotion and slip on a pair of clean soft socks.
#5 Order one of these, use it and love your feet again. You won't be disappointed!!!", "label": 1}

My husband and I had no issues with the other 2 pairs but I was wearing the third pair for the first time last night while working at a large NYE music festival and both malfunctioned. The stem came detached from the plug on both pairs and one stem remained lodged in my ear canal. I could not get it out with my fingers and trying to get it out only pushed it further and further into my ear and caused pain and discomfort. Unfortunately I was at a paid photography gig and could not miss my assigned acts and I had to stand directly in front of numerous giant speakers with no ear protection for an extended time due to this. At a break I had to go to a medical tent to have the stem removed. Fortunately they gave me a different pair of plugs to wear for the rest of the concert. It has not been 30 days since I bought these, but I cannot easily find a way to contact the seller about these issues via my orders in Amazon.

For me this product will be used as a once through my hair before flat ironing to cut back styling time it now takes me roughly 25 minutes instead of 45 min to an hour with just my flat iron. I also use the Wonderbrush on "dry shampoo days" to keep my hair looking fresh and soft.
If you have thin curly hair or just wavy hair this product may just replace your flat iron, I think the combination of my hair just needs that extra bit you get with a flat iron.
Pros; the brush heats up very quickly, and gets up to 450 degrees fahrenheit (though in the instructions it says not to leave it at this temperature for more than 15 minutes) it was quick to get through all my hair taking a total of ten minutes.
its nice and lightweight, without feeling cheap. It is very easy to use and would be great for pre teens learning how to use styling tools and you have a much less chance of heat damage to your hair as you are brushing through instead of holding heat directly to portions of your hair, even still I would always recommend using a heat protectant serum.

My measurements pre-pregnancy are 49-42-52, so I don't tend to carry a ton of weight in my middle. Still, I was concerned about this being a little too small since I'm at the very top of the weight range for a large. Turns out, when I first got this at 34 weeks, I needed to put it on the most snug setting. At 35 weeks, I now comfortably use the middle setting and probably will be able to for a while. (I think the adjustable band is one of the best parts, so if you're trying to save money and get the older version that's not adjustable, reconsider!)
Now for the pain: I had SI joint dysfunction pre-pregnancy, and I pulled my back out very badly at about 34 weeks. Although this didn't exactly "fix" the problem, wearing the brace after a couple of days of resting has allowed me to fold laundry or make a light dinner without any additional pain. I can even sit down for a little bit (rather than lay or stand). It really does releive a few pounds of pressure from my hip joints.

They are comparable in quality to all the other high end English shave creams, and come in a slightly smaller tub for way less money. That's preferable if you're like me and like to stock a wide variety so you can smell what you want to smell whenever you shave.
So check on Taylor being as good as the others. Don't let any reviewer sway you that DR Harris or others are sooo much better. I've found different brands make better and worse in different scents. DR Harris has the best lavender, Taylor has the best Sandalwood, Trumper owns Violet.
This St James stuff is interesting. At first I really didn't care for the scent, and that was after taking in a good whiff at a local shave shop. I came home and ordered on Amazon to save about $10, and when it got to me for whatever reason I just wasn't as fond as I'd been.
That being said, scent is a very personal kind of determination. I like it enough to use it, but it's not my every day smell.
What is EXCEPTIONAL about this product is the quality of its lather. It is far and away the best lathering cream I have ever encountered. It makes me wonder if the smell is just a byproduct of their having crammed every lathering agent into the same cream.
It is extraordinarily comfortable. If I have a special occasion and I need to be as clean shaven as possible then this is what I use. You basically can't cut yourself with this stuff on.
So if you want a super lathery cream and you haven't been happy with others then go for this. It's great with that.

1. Always switch off when taking off.
2. Always recharge overnight whichever batter is in the headphone at the end of the day.
3. During the day, whenever the headphone will probably not be used for 2 or more hours--switch batteries and recharge. (Or--you might also switch-and-recharge in the middle of the night or early in the morning.)
4. Any time that a battery starts to conk out after only a few hours use--it is on the way out. So it is then time to enter a third battery into the switch-off routine.
Thus--even if you usually use the headphones all day long--you will always have two almost-fully charged batteries--or the equivalent--to get you through the day. This should work even if there is only one or two days weekly that you are able to switch batteries and partially recharge for a couple of hours during the day.
Note. Our Sony headphone must be switched off during recharging. Also it seems that perhaps the sound input to the TV needs to be plugged in during recharghing, although I am not yet sure about this.
I have not yet used these 'aftermarket' batteries for very long. However, so far so good. The original Sony batteries conked out after two weeks. It seems likely these others cannot be worse, at least.

Reek no more! I bought a cheap little plastic tongue scraper and it seemed to work (for a bit) until the plastic started to get "funky" so I threw that one out!

The touch-up markers will mask a slight scrape or scratch. The 10 markers have a range of wood tones that should accommodate most finished wood surfaces. The filler sticks resemble crayons, and you use the included sharpener to make a finer point, depending on the nature of the repair. They recommend warming the filler stick before application. You rub this filler stick into the problem area, 'filling' it. Allow it to dry. To refine the repair, use the touch-up marker to attain a close match to the surrounding wood.
If the filler stick doesn't handle the repair, it's probably not a minor issue. Then you could try other repair products, like wood putty or plastic wood to fill the chip or crack. Then when those products are dry/cured, you can use the touch-up markers to match the original wood.
The product matches the product details. It's a worthwhile repair kit. Besides furniture repair, it can be used in arts/crafts projects, too. Overall, the product is exactly as shown and described.

NOTE: This item is NOT what is pictured in the photo!
PRICE: On clearance for $6 at Target stores; online prices seem to run double that (plus shipping).
PROS:
* There's an individual case for each day, so it's easy to take along just what you need for a day or a weekend.
* The days are color-coded as well as labeled in English, Spanish and braille.
* Each daily case has 3 removable dividers for creating up to 4 sections.
* When divided into 4 sections, each is approx 1\" x 1\" x 1\" -- more than big enough for several large pills.
* The box which holds all 7 daily cases seems sturdy, as does its latch.
* One of the color options is pink, and I love pink!
CONS:
* The sliding lid of each daily case is perhaps too easy to slide. If bumped around too much in a purse or briefcase, it sometimes slides open. (To be safe, I carry it in an interior pocket of my purse.)
* Most online sellers send a randomly chosen color, so it's possible to get a color you dislike.
BOTTOM LINE:
This pill organizer is great for people who take a lot of very large pills, either Rx or dietary supplements, and who want to be able to take just a day's worth \"to go\". If you take only a couple of pills or only very small pills, this would be over-kill.", "label": 1}

I am NOT going to deal with a $3,000+ hearing aid salesman, because I fear my temper will land me in prison. Intense advertising budgets for these imply \"WAY too much markup.\"
For me, the fatal flaw in all the ones I have tried is handling competing signals. I would get in the car, my wife would be talking, and as soon as she turned on the radio, I would remove the hearing aid, and put it away. It seems they all gave the entire sound spectrum the same priority in setting the gain. I don't know how this does it, but with the three programs, it was possible for me to select the best one for my particular problem. Tonight for the first time, I was able to converse with my wife while the AC was running and the TV was on. OK, I just ordered one for the other ear.
All I really question is how many charge/discharge cycles the battery is good for. That will be the limit on the lifetime of these. I am SO glad to be rid of those tiny batteries the others took, especially on the units where you open the battery door to turn them off. The battery falls out, of course, and is generally lost. It is a horrible nuisance.

I of all people am one of the best to set it because I have super curly and super thick hair. I will say that this straightens well but it is hard to get a super sleek super defined style, at least with my hair anyways.
I feel that the best use of this brush would be for someone who has soft to moderate curls and likes to smooth out the curls and the frizz of their hair.
I love that there is a very wide range of heat settings on this brush, it allows for many people with many types of hair to use this without the worry of heat damage. As with any straightener for best results use on throughly dry hair, that has been protected with heat serum. small sections straighten best with tension placed with your other hand not holding the brush pulling your hair straight.

1 Star: The lowest score possible. The product really does not reflect the product listing. No positives to the product.
2 Stars: The product is not exactly as described, either appearance-wise or functionally. The product may still be usable but it\u2019s very different to what was described. The product may have a few faults.
3 Stars: Product is similar to what is described but still has major faults that may affect the overall effectiveness of the product.
4 Stars: The product is as described and functions well. There may be a few minor issues, but all in all, the product is solid.

It probably needs to be resurfaced, but I\u2019m not looking to do that anytime soon. I\u2019ve tried all kinds of cleaning products and just haven\u2019t gotten the results I wanted, even with a whole lot of elbow grease. While researching cleaning these older tubs, I consistently found peroxide was the recommended cleaner. So, I got GreenFist\u2019s Hydrogen Peroxide All Purpose Cleaner Spray 32 oz (2 pack) as another attempt to clean the bathtub.
I like the idea of a more natural cleaner than the hasher cleaners (some of which I have tried). I sprayed the tub down really well and took the electric scrubber to it. While it didn\u2019t handle all the stains, it did clean the tub better than anything else I\u2019ve tried so far. Bonus, I didn\u2019t need a nap afterwards from herculean scrubbing efforts.
The scent is fairly mild and has a somewhat citrus smell. It\u2019s doesn\u2019t leave a strong \u201cfresh\u201d scent like some cleaners, but I\u2019m fine with that. The bathroom is small and I have to close the door when cleaning to keep the kitty from helping. Many cleaners can be overwhelming in the smaller, closed space.
I didn\u2019t see an expiration date on the bottles. It\u2019s my understanding that hydrogen peroxide degrades, particularly after opening the bottle. I have no way of knowing how \u201cfresh\u201d this is or how long the effectiveness will last. I was also surprised to see it in a clear bottle, as I always thought it came to opaque bottles to help preserve it. Maybe this is different from medical grade peroxide? I suppose I will just continue to use it as long as it is being effective.
I\u2019m happy with the results for this product and will be trying it on other areas in the house.", "label": 1}

Pros:
-Set it and forget it. Regulate it through the app on your phone (this wasn't super easy at first) and it can run when you are out. Why is this important? Because it's not silent (con). It bangs into furniture and moves around on a battery operated motor. It makes noise.
-doesn't require batteries. Recharges in its own station, which in theory it finds on its own when it needs to (con- can't seem to get that function to work).
-seems to clean up well. The side brush is key.
-automatically stops before falling downstairs. Shuts itself off when it falls more than a few inches.
In general I had trouble having it fit with my older home. It has multiple levels on the main floor and lots of furniture. I think what it all boils down to though is that this is the type of vacuum that works great with open floor plan homes, and all on one level with either hardwood or short pile carpets. I personally find it irritating to be around it when it's on, and I find the small collection container underneath to be too small for pet hair collection. This would be great for a small apartment - with no cats to be annoyed while you ran it while you are at work. Definitely run it while you are out.", "label": 1}

She has stated that since she has been wearing this she has had less issues with her back and has, in general, just been feeling better.

She has stated that she likes the light compression as well as the ability to adjust based on how if feels during the day, and really likes that it does not bunch up or create discomfort.

There\u2019s a reason doctors recommend this brand as opposed to ones that have absolutely no credibility, source from who knows where, and contain who knows what.
If this was pure fish oil without the additional ingredients, it would be absolutely disgusting to swallow. Luckily, it\u2019s DELICIOUS and even amplifies flavors when added to meals. Yes, it contains sunflower oil, but not nearly enough to cause any worry. Another review expressed concerns about the omega 6 in sunflower oil, which again is insignificant to begin with, but considering omega-6 is found in nuts, meats, and some vegetable, you\u2019d have a hard time avoiding it.
As for the burn-through-the-cup phenomenon everyone on Amazon obsessed over...do a quick google search and see that credible health sites, including Consumer Lab, blatantly state that this is a myth and should not be a concern when buying fish oils. Your stomach is not a styrofoam cup.
Now, the product itself...I\u2019ve purchased and used MANY brands of fish oil, and I\u2019m simply not turning back. The quality is obvious, as are the results, while minimal as all fish oils tend to be. This is the first fish oil I\u2019ve used that actually had me noticing any semblance of results. In all honesty, you\u2019re moreso buying this product based on the company\u2019s regulation and history of producing a clean, effective product, and for the long-term health benefits that, unlike drugs, are not going to be immediately obvious.

One concern is I did need to be able to actually hear my children. As long as they're in the same room as me I can definitely still do that. I can also watch TV with them in with subtitles. It's hard to hold a conversation at times because when I'm talking all I can hear is my own voice. I definitely cannot eat while using these as the sound of my crunching drowns out everything else.

1. There's two of them in the package. You know, for more loofahing. But seriously, it is amazing that you get two for such a low price.
2. There's a little hook for it to dry off after you're done using it! It might be really simple, but hey no more leaving your loofah soaking wet only to find it still soaked the next day.
3. It feels so good on your skin. You can feel all the little nasty dead skin particles scrubbing off of you. You feel so new, so clean afterwards.
4. There's an elastic band on the back for your hand. It helps to make sure it doesn't slip when you're using it in the shower.
*THE NOT SO GOOD*
1. It can be a little bit too abrasive once you get it. Although after a shower or two it did soften up, it can irritate really sensitive skin.
2. It tends to get a little bit gross looking after a while, since it is white. After a few showers, my loofah is no longer white, but grayish.
3. The back can get slippery, so it gets hard to hold even with the elastic band.
*SHOULD YOU BUY IT?*
Honestly, there's no better deal in my opinion. You get two great loofahs that work great, and leave you feeling clean. And even if it's not for you, you can still use it to scrub the floors, the sink, the toilet! But in all honesty, yes you should buy this.", "label": 1}

We bought the first one 5 years ago for the nursery. It was the perfect white noise sound, and it was super small so easy to pack for trips. So we bought a second one about a year late, just before my husband's business trip. Unfortunately about 6 months ago the older one started rattling a little bit. Not much, but it was enough to annoy me, so I knew it could interfere with the kids sleep. I really didn't want to pay $45 for this tiny little machine. However, I sucked it up and bought a third one. The only negative is the price.
The positives include:
- natural white noise sound (nothing like those awful Homemedic digital noise machines)
- can adjust the white noise by twisting it
- small and portable (easy to pack for trips, and takes up very little room on a dresser)
- has a mechanical switch so it's not digital. Therefore it won't crap out as soon as a digital Homemedic machine, AND if the power flickers off (like it did for us twice last night in the wee hours), as soon as power is restored this machine starts working again. So our 5 year olds didn't even notice it or wake up, since the outage was only for a few minutes at a time. We, however, still use a digital air purifier in our bedroom for white noise, so at 4am, well after the brief outage, I woke up thinking "Why is it so quiet??"", "label": 1}

I actually tried to use this aggressively to see if I could get it to bend..and there was not a chance of that happening. This is is one of those kitchen tools that will last years. When grating garlic, we preferred the press and rock method. But sure you start with peeled garlic! I found that with ginger, it was best to grate it as opposed to pressing and rocking.
One thing I like a great deal about this product is that if you want your item to be chopped finer, you can just press and rock it a few more times...easy and really gets to what you want for your recipe. It is also really safe if you have kids helping you in your kitchen. Both my 9 and 12 year olds were able to use this with ease and found it fun. There are no truly sharp edges to cut any little fingers. This is simple, and no fuss..does what it should and appears built to last.
I would love to see some instructions added to this product. It is pretty straightforward, yes, but asking around, not many people in my region would know what this is or how to use it.

I need to have mammograms more frequently due to monitoring of a mass, but I'm also still lactating.

Was hoping to use this instead of my Freemie cups with the Buddha pump to go tubeless. I actually ordered the wrong ones. I meant to order the Phanpy version that has the bottle attachments. I was distracted by the cheap price for the pair.
These are far from discreet. I wasn't expecting them to be sleek or discreet, but they are BULKY. Also when washing them before use, you'll notice that you're not going to be able to get all your breastmilk out. I wasn't able to get every last drop of water out of the collection container. There's a flat part near the opening where the water collects and won't pour out. I know many value every last drop of breastmilk, so this could be an issue for many. May not be as big of an issue if the collection containers can double as a bottle, but that's not an option. How do you get every last drop of milk out? Is there a trick?
Anyhow, for this reason, and because I really meant to buy the ones that you can attach a wide mouth bottle to, I've returned them.
As for the when it's turned on, it's not quiet, but again, didn't expect it to be for the price. My Baby Buddha is also not quiet so the noise isn't an issue for me, but it may be for others who would like to pump more discreetly.", "label": 0}

The factory boxes these came in were totally destroyed. That's because the seller did not bother to pack any foam, paper, or air-pillows in the shipping box to stop the two items slimming about inside the shipping box. That's also because these clamps are very heavy, and built like a tank. The fact they survived shipping says a lot about their construction.
My only gripe as to the seller's photos of the product is that the product should have been shown in use with the type of lighting it was meant to hang. These guys are actually meant to hang industrial filmmaking lighting gear which is much bigger and heavier than the entry/pro filmmaking video lighting I'm currently using. So, I've had to look for another clamp that has the standard stud for video / photo lighting.
I'm keeping all of these clamps, because now I have them, I can hang some heavier lighting in the future as needed.
These clamps have what initially looks like a common studio lighting stud, but it's not. It's a really big stud with a threaded bold inserted with a hefty washer. This aint your average DJ light clamp. I think if I end up with a couple of those heavy mover heads, I'll hang them with these guys.
I think the seller needs to be aware that by not packing correctly, this could have cause the shipping box to be damaged, and then the products could have slammed into and damaged other packages during shipping. These are very heavy, and even though they will survive just about anything, they still need to be packed so they don't slam about in the shipping box.", "label": 1}

First of all, it was the best smelling scrubber that I have tested. It has that relaxing spa smell that just makes you melt. Now not for others but that is for me. Some may prefer a no scent ones but I think this smell will disappear after a few uses. The back scrubber is great for massaging as I don\u2019t feel that it scrubbed my back the way I want it to feel. I am probably more used to the rough scratchy feel of a back scrubber than the smooth feel of the silicon points that it has. The length is great for going back and forth in the back or even that thighs and the legs. Even if it is not scratchy like my preference, it provides some kind of relaxation due to the massage effect as you use it.
As for the other accessories, the loofah is just the regular one I usually have so there is really nothing that wows me and get excited about it. The facial brush or scrubber, I think is a little small to become useful for me and again too soft to make feel that it did its purpose on my face. The brush bristles is another one that is too soft for me and maybe a little stiffness could have me raving about it.
Overall, I think it is a personal preference and I have yet to find one that will be 100% to my taste.

I feel bad throwing these away and am not too keen on rinsing out litter pan gravel, lots of dust, and floor debris down the drain in order to reuse these.
As can be seen in my photos, I used this to clean up litter pan dust. For this test, I did rinse it out and reused it again. I actually felt guilty throwing away the one wipe I used because it really is not very disposable.
Obviously these have a purpose in situations where one wants to use a wipe like a rag that gets reused over and over again. For those purposes, these are perfect. However, I have an aversion to rinsing dust, debris, and grease down the drain and prefer to use paper towels instead. Therefore, I might re-purpose these to wash my dishes instead of using the cloth Handi Wipes.

I have had no problems with the power source so far. the ink like everyone says sucks its good for practicing on grapefruit or pork skin, but I recommend purchasing some ink wen you move to tattooing on people. the video that comes with the kit is pretty funny, especially the sweet cat tattoo he does.(you can find helpful videos youtube) the practice skin is a joke in my opinion, if you use it make sure you have vasiline on it or the ink will just smudge on it permanently, it still will though anyway. color didn't really work well on it either. but it is good for practicing you line work it has some flash art already on it. I'd maybe use it without ink just to get a feel for the machines.
please keep in mind that nothing in this kit is sterile except for the needles in the packages. so you need to sterilize the tips and tubes, even the disposable tips and tubes.
I'd also recommend getting better parts for the machines in the future like springs and coils, but they do the job for now.
you also need to get lots of other stuff like green soap and more gloves and what not.
I've done a few tattoo's on myself and friends and so far so good.
just keep in mind you need to learn how to keep things sterile to protect yourself and others, as well as setting your needle depths so your not giving people blood poisoning or bad tatts.", "label": 1}

I wear custom orthotics I used to wear office bought orthotics, and those helped for s few years but then I got custom orthotics.

They again hurt, so I figured I would try and do something about this. That's when I went on amazon and discovered your product. Which my orthotics alone reduce the pain in my feet by 80%. Still, with your product, my foot pain is reduced by 98%, and the reason why I needed this arch supports because I am still in school, and I am working at a hotel, and I am on my feet from 5-7 hours a day. And these arch supports have made the most significant improvement.
I even tried to, but some arch support socks and other inserts, but the socks worked some of the time and the other supplements. Felt like I was walking on marbles. Which sounds terrible or maybe even walking on legos, but the other arch supports hurt so bad I was limping. Thus yeah, basically, I was born with Pes Cavus or high arches. And from the bottom of my heart, I would like to say thank you for making this product; it has changed my work life tremendously.

I see so many people doing low maintenance tanks and complaining about dying plants and not growing plants, just get some dry fertilizers. you will not regret it. you just measure them out and put them straight into the tank. so easy. just make sure to do your water changes every week to keep the fertilizer levels from building up too much. If I miss a water change on a Sunday, I just skip the fertilizers for one week until i can get a change in. no biggie.
This is good stuff to add to your fertilizers. I don't think it is completely necessary but it will really bring out the red in your plants. especially if your on the edge of being high light. below shows a before and after picture of using the fertilizers. Maybe about 4 months apart and Im running about 2 watts per gallon for my lighting. thats not very high light.

The Xtava Travel Flat Iron comes in a sturdy black box that opens from the top and inside the Travel iron was in a nice carrying bag and even included hair clips. The heating element on the iron is 3 1/4" in length and an inch wide and that works fine for my needs but if you have thicker hair you may not get the same results. The iron heats up quickly and I love the bag is insulated so that you can place the still warm iron into it without any worries.

Overall I am really pleased with this product, I usually tend to pack the bare minimum, especially on weekend getaways but this iron is small and light enough for me to toss into my bag and go, in fact, it's compact enough to fit in a large purse for after work touch ups.

It also comes with clear instructions on how to use each piece. Before using the kit your face should be really clean and I used the deep cleansing peel off black mud face mask the night before. I applied the mask and left it on for about 30 minutes and then peeled it off. My skin has a little tingle sensation and felt cleaner and I also applied toner afterwards. This bundle pack also comes with a charcoal Konjac sponge which is extremely hard, but once it is wet is softens and you use it to exfoliate the oily areas on your skin. It\u2019s hard to describe but my face felt completely fresh and clean after this treatment and I did have a little redness but it didn\u2019t last long. I did not use all of the extractors but tried some. It will take a little practice getting use to using tools to extract blackheads and blemishes.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
Complete junk. The battery cover takes a lot of jiggling to open/close properly, and the on-off switch doesn't always work; overall cheaply built. I've used it 3 times and it's already conking out. The last time the cutter didn't have enough power and started pulling on my nostril hair instead of cutting it. The cutter overall isn't very powerful, and doesn't cut unless the hair is precisely fed into the little round opening. I get that the low power is designed to not cause damage, but it just doesn't work.
Overall a bad product.", "label": 1}

Nova Pro 100 Pros
1) Really good built in sessions. Most of them worked for me very well.
2) Sound quality is really good, good depth. I use a Sony MDR V6 with this.
3) Color Track glasses are really good. May not be very bright for some people.
4) Option for 2 users.
5) Solid build, metal casing.
6) Amazing customer service. People at Photosonix are really helpful. They stand behind their product.
Nova Pro 100 Cons
1) Bulky, not very portable esp if you travel.
2) The frame of ColorTrack glass look fragile. I have to tuck it inside my headset to keep it in place.
Procyon Pros
1) Very portable, nicely built.
2) Glasses are really bright, more visualizations.
Procyon Cons
1) Built in sessions did not work for me very well. For e.g I used the sleep sessions and I was wide awake at the end of it. With Nova Pro 100, I was sleeping when the session ended. Had to remove headset and glasses in the middle of the night.
2) Sound doesn't have much depth. I used the same Sony MDR V6 with this one too.
Please note, I did not use the session editing software with any of these. After trying for weeks, I choose to keep the Nova Pro 100 as it is working really well for me.", "label": 1}

Relative to this reviewer's position in space anyway!
Let's face it, most healthy natural sweeteners made with Stevia or anything else, are either a little bitter, or leave a funny aftertaste.
NO FUNNY aftertaste with NatVia! Enough said.
The texture resembles fancy sugar (the grains are bit larger than table sugar) I use it to sweeten tea and I now prefer it over sugar
If you start weaning yourself off table sugar--you will begin to find the taste of regular sugar cloying---I didn't have to go slowly with NatVia--or wean myself off the regular stuff--NatVia had a good taste right out of the canister. I just switched, so no more blood sugar surges for me.
It's healthier--that's what you are looking for right? A good tasting sugar substitute that doesn't taste bitter or leave a chemical after-taste.
It is a little harder to come by--in that it's a little pricier than some sweeteners, and it's from Australia, so I have to keep it ordered now, it took longer than usual to get it delivered. But I recommend this one. In the interest of full disclosure--I really tried to like another sweetener--made from Monk fruit, because it was cheaper, but apparently I really like sweet tea, because the amount I had to use--approximated 3 packets--and --unbeknownst to me--it's a laxative at higher doses.

I had trouble getting the product to easily flow under the tile as shown in the video. I wound up drilling more holes until I got what seemed adequate coverage underneath.

One of the 8-ounce reclosable cartons (the size of one standard glass of water) has 240 calories, so it is not meant to be a low-calorie diet drink. It is a partial meal substitute.
The apple taste is very refreshing, and might be most appealing in hot weather. It is suitable for vegetarians, but not vegans. It will taste better if refrigerated before use, but must be refrigerated after opening if not finished in one go. It contains a small amount of solids, so it has to be shaken before opening. A sick or injured person might need help with this.
One of the ingredients is whey protein isolate, which is why it is a kosher-dairy product, instead of parve. One carton provides 8 grams of protein, carbohydrate in the form of sugar and corn syrup solids, and vitamins and minerals--but not calcium and potassium. It is obviously not meant to be complete nutrition, but part of nutritional program to help patients recover. The packaging says, \"For supplemental use only.\"
Although it is apple-flavored, it is not vitamiinized apple juice. It is a nutrient-in-water product, with the flavoing meant to make it appealing enough to drink.

Buying this was ultimately easier and cheaper than buying the ingredients for lactation snacks.
This supplement, along with pumping a little extra here and there, more than doubled my milk supply. I went from barely pumping enough to feed my baby to pumping 16-20 ounces extra daily after about 10-14 days. Also, the milk I made began to look different, the fat rose to the surface when stored in the fridge but the color of the milk stayed the same, whereas now that I have not used this supplement for a week to see what would happen, my milk looks much clearer after the fat rises.
The reason I'm not giving this five stars is because of the texture. It wants to settle at the bottom of the glass, and it changes the consistency of everything. One person in the reviews mentioned putting it in their coffee- it sat at the bottom and made the consistency of the coffee itself very thick. I found it best in juice, after letting it sit for a minute it absorbed a lot of the juice and thickened to a smoothie texture. Would definitely be best in an actual smoothie, but as it stands I hate washing blenders.

They are textured fabric sleeves that fit over your finger. Since there are no bristles, they're not going to get stuff in between your teeth as a toothpick would. However, they're good at freshening your breath and getting \"just brushed\" feel to your teeth.
Also, they are soooo small. They come in a foil pouch and are very thin. You can keep a pair in your wallet and not even know they are there.
They're expensive enough I wouldn't use them everyday (I keep a toothbrush in my desk for daily use) but there are enough scenarios I could imagine them for - Freshen your breath and mouth just before important presentations, late night after clubbing, just before a date, after a meal on the road - times when you're not likely to have brought a toothbrush and toothpaste.

They seemed pretty pricey for something that I assumed you would get 3-4 uses from at the most. I thought they looked dumb. I was curious though, so I ordered them anyway, and I am SO glad that I did. The sponges have completely changed the way we shower! I originally planned to count the number of uses I got from each sponge, but I lost track after a couple of weeks. I should have kept a written record I guess, but it's been a month now and I'm still on my first sponge. They're so easy to use: just wet it, give it a squeeze or two, and wash. When I'm done I rinse the outside (without wringing it out) and put it on a rack in the shower where it can dry. It stays soapy and magically doesn't develop that funky old sponge smell! I also hesitated over the scents since I wasn't particularly jazzed about either scent, but I ended up going with spearmint which I thought would be the least offensive. The scent is actually nice though (and I strongly dislike spearmint); it's a barely there kind of smell, and it doesn't linger on your skin after you leave the shower. The kids love them, I love them, I'll definitely buy again! I only wish I could get some plain, no soap facial sponges to use with my existing face wash!

And since you're wondering: yes, IT WORKS! Both my husband and myself were impressed at how effective this was at diffusing smoke and eliminating smell. Very little scent/smoke lingers which is very important if you're an indoor or stealth smoker. It works MUCH better than the "homemade" versions and the price is right. All that remained is what was coming off of the pipe itself. I really can't believe we've gone years without this as we certainly plan to purchase more.
Tips:
- Shout out to "Amazon Customer" review on 8/17/16 for this tip: "Pair it with some cotton balls on the inside to catch the nasty brown resin and it will last you 4x longer than expected without clogging the filter."

I had noticed an increase in loss of focus and memory retention after spending many hours on my computer during Covid and continue to do so. I definitely have experienced computer vision syndrome due to the prolonged computer/screen use for long periods of time. I am sure that we can all relate to this as we are becoming a world of more time spent on screens faster than anything else. I have researched many other recommended memory supplements but have always been diligent about what I put in my body and seek more of the natural approach. What convinced me to try this was the key ingredients such as Lion's main mushroom and Bacopa. These ingredients found in this product far exceeded my expectations on what it would be providing besides just for memory in focus. Including preventative measures to decrease the chances of Alzheimer's disease, Anxiety, Depression, High cholesterol, Inflammation, and Parkinson's disease. Bacopa contains powerful antioxidants that help protect against cell damage caused by potentially harmful molecules called free radicals. It also refuses inflammation and helps boost brain function. And has the ability to reduce symptoms of ADHD. (I know, I totally geek out on this kind of stuff)
After taking the recommended three capsules a day for just a couple of days I noticed a huge increase in my energy. I normally take a nap (by 2 pm) every day and I have not needed a nap since taking these. I have also noticed that I am able to focus on my computer for longer periods of time and have noticed an increase in my ability to retain information better.

At the time the Amazon page sold it as suitable for airline travel, which seemed to indicate that I'd have no problem flying with it. At the very last hours before my flight, I learned from American Airlines that the FAA did not approve this wheelchair as sold. The problem is the battery, which is not FAA compliant (Exceeds 300 watt hours).
The battery that comes with this wheelchair is rated 24V20Ah. Translated, that means 24 volts at 20 amp/hours, (with \"amp/hours\" referring to the number of hours the battery can last). And that translates into watt hours as 24 x 20 = 480 watt hours. For a 24 volt battery to qualify under FAA guidelines the rating can't exceed 24V12.5Ah. (24 x 12.5 = 300 watt hours).
On such short notice, I ended up with no option but to cancel a trip I had planned for over a year. I like the wheelchair, but I think I deserve some compensation for the loss of my trip and hassles. There are FAA compliant lithium-ion batteries sold on Amazon that would provide adequate power yet are limited to 300WH.

Although my stretch marks are still noticeable, my skin seems tighter and smoother and the stretch marks do not seem as deep.
The product is easy to massage into the skin and does not leave a film or greasy feeling. The cream is refreshing leaves the slightest tingly sensation followed by a warming sensation that diminished after about 40 minutes. The cream is lightly scented and smells good. It did not stain or discolor my clothing.

Filters arrived in only 3 or 4 days. The filters are really good and all you need is a pair of pliers to unscrew the L shaped quick connect connectors.
Per the instructions on the box you need tools which are not supplied plus Teflon tape which is not needed since it's got silicone o rings on all the connectors which are quick connect too.
I was initially frustrated when I read the instructions but it's actually quite simple.
Just connect them in the following order ensuring that they are not reversed. There are arrows on the filters too indicate the flow.

2. First carbon filter to remove chlorine.
3. Membrane
4. DI resin.
5. Coconut charcoal filter.

Would like to update, finally used the kit on myself and was very easy to use after doing some research on YouTube and Google.
1st: glued pink silicone rod to my eyelid. Then put glue on a section of the silicone and started gently laying lashes on the rod till they would stick (very important not to clump otherwise results will not be flattering) work with a small section of lashes. Glue needs to be a little tacky. This part was the most time consuming
2nd: gently put solution A on lashes for 13 mins. Then gently cleaned with warm water on a cotton then applied solution B for 13 mins as well and cleaned with warm water on a cotton again. After that applied solution C ther cleanser and started to remove the glue with that and then applied solution D the eyelash restore and cleaned up the the glue left over on lashes if any, then applied the mascara and my results were amazing!
This kit truly is easy to use and possible to do on your own like I did. Would like to add that I showered afterwards and woke up the next morning and my eyelashes are still curled up :) !! Will update how long they last me until I need to do another touch up.

There was not enough bristles to create holding power. I could also see, right away out of the box, that this could tangle your hair. The bristles are short , far apart with little nubs at the end. I could see how hair could wrap around and get caught getting pulled into the barrel when you retract the bristles. This did not happen to me but only that I could see the potential there. To retract the bristles you push a lever and have to hold it there. The lever does not lock to keep bristles in thus allowing for a smooth barrel styling if you would choose. This was a bit hard and awkward for me to do with arthritic fingers. I managed it but could see days it would be tougher to do.

ONLY CON TO THIS PRODUCT: it is hard to create a tight seal when putting your lips inside the device. I find that if I don't want odor or smoke, I need to insert the device and create the seal on the outside. This feels and looks quite strange as the opening is fairly large. The only thing I would suggest about this product is to have and optional attachment where the mouthpiece taper more like a funnel for those who do no care about its portability factor. Example being right now I only use in my house, so the extra few inches it might add to the device would not be an issue. It's possible that tapering too much would restrict enough air flow to make it easy to blow through , but something a tad bit smaller on the mouthpiece end would be nice as an optional attachment.

The Pedicure Callus Remover is a wet/dry hand-held device, similar to an electric razor, with a removable roller. It also comes with an extra roller, a brush, a charging cord and a plastic clear cap. It is recommended to charge it 10 to 12 hours before using it for the first time.
I have never owned a callus remover before, so I didn't know what to expect. It turns out that this device has quite a bit of power to it as the roller turns 40 times a second! I originally thought that the there would be a slight pain when the roller is scraping the callus away, but I'm glad to report that it didn't hurt at all. The remover does a great job of shaving down the dead skin! Washing it is real simple - just rinse the roller out and your done.

Still, I was able to sort of flip it over the back and use it as a headrest, as intended. The pillow is going to fit different in different shaped and styled tubs, so you\u2019ll have to find what works best given your situation.
That said, the pillow is very comfortable and provides plenty of cushioning against the back of the tub, making for a pleasant bath experience. I have used inflatable bath pillows in the past, and they can\u2019t hold a candle to this type of pillow as far as comfort goes. There is a hook on one end of the pillow and if you hang it after use, it drains and dries well. There were no strange smells, loose threads, weak seams, or any other defects with the pillow. There also were no care instructions included, but on the Amazon product page, it says the pillow is machine washable. I haven\u2019t tried that, and may not unless it gets really dirty, but hopefully the claim holds true.
This is a good choice for a comfortable, smaller bath pillow.", "label": 1}

So, yeah, it works for me. I had been tested and approved for a CPAP device, but I knew from the testing alone that I would never use it. Like others, I had tried nasal spray, nose strips, mouth appliances and different pillows. So when a Nora ad popped up I gave it a try. Not because I had snoring-related issues like tiredness the next day, but because my significant other did. She very quickly responded favorably to this new woman in my life.
Regarding the device itself, it is pretty simple to use. The "egg" charges with a USB cable you connect to Nora. It has different sensitivity settings to account for background noise, etc. It also has a delay setting, so you can set it and still watch TV or talk for about 30 minutes before it starts to respond. The main body charges with a wall plug and generously long cord. I find it lasts through the night on a charge, but not all the way through two in my case. The egg lasts much longer per charge. The tube connecting the case and insert is also quite long.
The only problem I ever had was the bladder separating from the vinyl insert. Once I figured out that it was just velcro'd in, it was easy to fix.
I think that with the 30 day guarantee, it's a no-brainer. I wish I had known about the snore app others have referred to, as I would have tried it sooner.", "label": 1}

I have professionally highlighted hair, mostly straight, but sometimes fight some frizz and slight waviness. It definitely helped make my hair look so much better, and was super quick and easy to do. The speed of it was what I especially loved. I used it with my hair completely dry, as I've been told you can damage your hair if you use a styling iron on it while it's wet. There's a bit of some sort of a chemical smell when my brush is hot, but am guessing that it's just because it's new, and have had curling irons that have had something similar. To turn the brush on, you press and hold the power button for a few seconds. I did find the heat controls were a bit easy to bump and had to be careful of that. All in all, I really like this brush, and am happy that I can straighten my hair in just minutes! We were running late one morning, so I spent about five minutes with it and had much smoother hair. Typically, I'd spend more time, but happy to have a styling tool that works for super quick touch ups. Busy moms can always use that!!

2. Battery lasts a long time. I use it 2 times a day, and have not recharge it more than two weeks, that is great!
3. Compact and lightweight. The water flosser doesn't take up a lot of space and is not heavy, children also can do well.
4. Good customer service. I lost a replaceable tip and emailed them. Seller sent me two replacement and told me that i can get help no matter what the problem is in the future!
5. I like that three pulsed water settings, i use \"LOW\" to massage gums and other modes to clean my teeth, so powerful. And, you should select \"LOW\" when first use, otherwise bleed, which is normal.
6. It does come with a quality bag that stoges all of the parts, and which can keep it from turning itself on while traveling. We travel a lot so it\u2019s a good choice for us.

In order to avoid spraying water everywhere, i set the flosser in my mouth, on the tooth I want to start with, then turn it on.

I mentioned this to her and she said her doctor has told her about similar devices that helped maintain posture. I've ordered and used compression straps for my forearms to alleviate and allow healing for tennis elbow, so I know how a little support helps. Anyway, she tried it on and said she immediately felt two inches taller. The support was there and it helped with the pain immediately. The device came with two pads, but didn't have any explanation for them. I thought they might be shoulder pads, but later read on the product page they were for the arm pits. They wrap around and velcro the strap there so it doesn't make that area tender.
I think the best thing about this she thought besides the support and pain relieve was how light it is. She is still working and on her feet all day inspecting electronic components for a local firm with government contracts for critical plane parts. With this she can wear under her clothes and maintain good posture all day working while her muscles heal.

04/22/2021 Update ~ Unfortunately, I tried charging this lash curler again today, and it did not take a charge. Sadly, stopped working. Will have to return. Really a shame, as I truly liked this lash curler.
I also like the lash brush/comb tool that is included with this curler. Very useful. There were two under eye patches also included, but I haven't tried them yet. This Orikgher Electric Eyelash Curler also comes with a small cleaning brush so you can easily clean the heating element. If you allow your mascara to dry before using this curler, you will find the mascara will not stick to the ceramic heated shaft.
Heated curlers take a little practice. Different than conventional lash curlers, but with patience, you can achieve a lasting curl. Make sure you apply a very light coat of mascara first and allow it to completely dry. Using a small mirror, position the mirror below your eye while looking down. Set shaft of curler at the very base of your lashes, let it sit for a second, then slowly drag curler upwards and back at the same time. The included lash/brush tool is perfect for combing and separating your lashes as you use the curler, as the mascara wants to melt a tiny bit.

Personally, I have found, as is the case for other foam ear plugs I have used over the years, that these ear plugs can be washed and reused multiple times before they start to crack. Only then, in my opinion, is it truly necessary to discard them. I have attached a photo to show what it looks like when they crack.
I make it a point, when washing these ear plugs with soap and water, to rinse them well, then pat and squeeze them thoroughly with a towel and let them air dry for at least 24 hours before using them again.
Unlike other similar quality earplugs I own, when I wash these, they expand and get bigger. Fortunately, though, they don't seem to fit any tighter or more uncomfortably because of that expansion. I have attached a photo with a picture of one of these earplugs when new side-by-side with one that has been washed, as well as two other brands of earplugs I use that do not expand at all when washed and last a whole lot longer than these do over time.

I like a deep massage so I would often wish the right side was equally broken. After that it was about a year of nice massages while sitting here type type typing away. The timer was locked at a maximum of 30 minutes and then you had to turn it off, wait for it to fully reset and decline and then it could start over again. It was annoying but ok, for about a year. The control bar was not intuitive at all and I definitely had no idea what I was getting myself into at first, eventually I got the hang of it though. And that was good for a year.
Then after about a year, suddenly the thing became giant brick. Guess how long the warranty is?
You guessed it, 1 year.

This callus remover is easy to use and hold. It is small and fits very well in your hand and is comfortable to hold the entire time you're using it.

While the suggested serving is 2 capsules, I would advise starting with one capsules and build up to 2 capsules per day.

The scent is menthol and, while it's clearly noticeable, it's not as strong as other menthol-based rubs I've used. It has more of a minty/menthol scent than a strong menthol-only scent. I would stop short of calling it an enjoyable scent, but it's at least non-offensive.
The cooling performance is light but still effective. It takes a few minutes to build up the cooling. The cooling is not as strong or long-lasting as others -- I find that I need to re-apply this more often than other options.. Still, the lack of greasiness, lower odor, and the ease of application balance that out.
The addition of hemp seed oil doesn't make a noticeable difference compared with formulations that lack hemp seed oil.

That's a pretty bold statement coming from me because I've tried Numerous vitamin c serums from various brands and therefore have become somewhat of a snob about them, only really trusting one particular brand that is unfortunately extremely expensive. Then I had the opportunity to test and evaluate this one and it has solved that problem being a fraction of the price and competitive or maybe even equal quality. This is 98% natural and 72% organic, not bad at all! It really leaves my skin soft and didn't take too long before I was seeing a nice glow to my skin. (cell regeneration takes time, that's just nature and science.) My skin tone has evened out and I feel like the fine lines I have been starting to get have diminished. This serum is a great consistency, a good balance between not too thin and not too goopy or thick. It takes very little to cover my face and I believe this bottle should last me at least a month but probably longer. The skin around my eyes and neck have become more firm and I've been receiving compliments on how nice my skin is. I've NEVER had compliment worthy skin in my life and I've received 3 compliments just this week. That feels really, really good!

We mixed it with 2% milk, so that will affect the flavor results, I am sure.
We used one of our shakers, not a blender (no need with Spiru-tein mixes unless
you really want to). The powder is tan, and doesn't smell like cookies in any way.
What I DIDN'T like about this flavor was the little bits of cookie. I don't know, but
I don't want chunks in a liquid drink! A blizzard has chunks of cookies, but you eat those
with a spoon. This you drink, so the little cookies chunks are a little weird on the tongue.
However, it isn't the worst flavor. I thought there would be more cookie dough flavor, but
it is more like melted ice cream with bits of a chocolate chip cookie (not the chip part,
but the actual cookie part) mixed in. It adds crunch to the drink.
I really did not like having chunks of things that needed to be chewed when I was
trying to drink a liquid shake. I would imagine that you could mix this up and freeze it,
and have a very healthy and tasty frozen snack, but we have not tried that.
Not the worst tasting mix out there, for sure, and it has a nice load of vitamins.
The weird texture mix caused it to lose a star, down to only two. It doesn't taste \"bad\",
but hated the cookies on my tongue.
Would I buy it again? No, I definitely would not.

This shake has a rich, smooth, sweet, delicious vanilla taste. It doesn't have a gritty taste (it helps that I shake each bottle vigorously prior to drinking it).
The consistency of this shake is like that of whole milk (whereas, I typically drink low-fat milk, which has a thinner consistency).
Instructions on the bottle label advises, \"...shake well...serve cold...\"
I agree. I drank one at room temperature, and while it still tasted sweet, it was not as refreshing as the others that I drank after it had been refrigerated.
I like how nutritious a serving size of 1 bottle is:
-- 26 vitamins & minerals (including Vitamins A, K, B12, E)
-- 9g protein

Naturally without layers my hair is fairly straight, frizzy, but straight. With layers it's very wavy. I downloaded the ebook just in case, even though it was pretty self explanatory. Once plugged in, you set the temperature to your desired setting. Minimum is 150 degrees, and maximum is 230 degrees. I always apply some type of heat treatment in my hair prior to using any kind of heat on it. Typically an Aragon oil works best for me. The temperature that works best for my hair is around 190-200 degrees. It worked great for me. my hair was definitely straight after use, and the frizz did diminish. The only issue I have (well, had) with the Hair Brush Straightener was the placement of the buttons to adjust the temperature. It's located on the side part of the handle of the brush versus on the back of the head. This causes you to continuously adjust and mess with the temp you have it set on.

Coromega is a unique form of fish oil. It delivers the Omega-3 fatty acids present in fish oil in a particularly efficient way, making it the most bioavailable form of fish oil I've ever heard of. It is tested to ensure that it is pure and not contaminated by mercury, or other contaminants or heavy metals. Only quality ingredient are used in its manufacture; it sweetened with stevia, probably the best natural sweetener of all.
This review is for this wonderful bulk-order 3-pack, which would be great for a large family. My advice is to check prices on this and all Amazon bulk orders to make sure that you're getting the absolute lowest price.
Coromega comes in little daily dose squeeze packets that are convenient for travel and that keep it fresh for a long time (unlike some brands that go rancid easily). I carry some in my purse and sometimes take them before a meal out when I'm hungry but have to wait to eat, since they contain 20 calories. Even on an empty stomach, they cause me no digestive upset at all and I love the flavor. The orange is my favorite and doesn't taste at all like fish, but has an orange-y creamsicle flavor. Even children will love this! It is a great solution for people who find it unpleasant to take fish oil, or for people who can't take it at all because of nausea, digestive upset, etc.
Coromega does contain eggs, so if you're allergic, you should look for other sources of fish oil.
Highly recommended.

Because they are literally being pinched halfway shut. I think you can kind of see it happening with the guy in the example photo.

The digital heat controller allows you to control both the temp and the heating duration.
I've never used one of these before and it's a little different. As opposed to your typical electrical heating pad, it doesn't heat up immediately - building heat into the stones over about a 30 min time period. The control unit allows for temp selection so I just turned it all the way up and waited. The heating was very uniform and did a pretty good job. I liked the auto-turn off function as I worried that the heated stones would get too hot and start melting either the heating pad or my clothing. I guess at the temp it reaches, that's really not a risk, but you never know.
The only knock I have is that the mat did not reach its maximum stated heating temp of 158 deg F as it never go about about 146 deg. This isn't a big difference, but if your documentation states a specific temperature threshold, it should meet that threshold.
The purchase price of $62 sounds super steep for a heating pad, but after a quick look at other similar pads on Amazon, the price is actually on the low end of the spectrum for infrared/rock heating pads.

My husband and I often pass each other in the night to use the bathroom. I hadn't slept through the night in years, until now. Usually my bladder wakes me up several times a night. I've had this stuff for two days.
Day One: We both took half a teaspoon in some juice (until we get used to the flavor). For the first time in what seems like forever, I slept the entire night without using the bathroom. My husband went once.
Day Two: We both took a half tsp. in the morning with juice. I took another half before bed. He didn't. He woke up once to use the bathroom. My bladder didn't wake me up, the alarm clock did! Normally, I wouldn't be posting something on a supplement so fast. I haven't felt this good in so long. This product is amazing.
I got some for my parents to try. If it does this in two days, I can't imagine if even some of these other health benefits start to work. I just survived breast cancer and all the poisons they put in my body. I have all kinds of after effects from that nightmare. My husband has diabetes. I will update this review after a few weeks.

The gray is the roughest of the three and to me reminds me of those kitchen scrubber sponges that come in a little holder shaped like an animal. It is the roughest bath pouf I have ever felt - but it is not too bad at all and not too rough at all - just a bit more rigid in design. The beige is the softest of the three - VERY soft - the softest bath pouf I have ever felt - you almost want to curl up with it. But it still works great in the bath. The blue is like your standard bath pouf in consistency - although what seems to be a very good quality one at that. They were packaged VERY nicely too. This way I can throw the other two into the closet in their pouch.
Personally I can't imagine using all three at once because of space - but it may work if you have a different one for each family member or something. I am just going to use one at a time. Maybe softest for now in Winter to be gentle on skin that is already taking a beating. Then use the gray in the Summer to scrub away grime and sweat.

I was applying heat 2 to 3 times a day for over 2 months. She wouldn\u2019t tolerate it for more than 10 minutes at a time. The eye looked so bad that it was the only thing people noticed about her.
I was ready to request that an ophthalmologist surgically remove it. I found this product when I was doing a Google search for an ophthalmologist.
So, I decided to give it a try. Why not? $26. My copay for a consult is $80 and I\u2019d probably spend $1,000 and have a traumatized child if she had the surgery.
The oil doesn\u2019t have a strong scent. It doesn\u2019t burn, but my daughter did not appreciate me massaging it on her eyelid 3 times a day....especially when over a week went by and nothing changed. I assumed I\u2019d be calling an ophthalmologist.
On the 10th day of using the oil, my daughter was laying in bed and felt something moist on her eye. The chalazion was draining from the outside. She wouldn\u2019t allow me to press on it to drain it much. But, I kept rubbing the oil on it, 3 times a day and the eyelid kept looking better.
It\u2019s been a month since we got the oil. She has a tiny scab on the eyelid and I\u2019m still rubbing the oil on it once a day. The bump is gone. I don\u2019t know exactly what is in this product. I don\u2019t know if the ingredients are effective, or if the act of massaging the eyelid is what made the chalazion heal.

Unlike the wrist band Fitbit Alta-HR, the scale setup is a bit more complicated. So its probably a good idea to download / PRINT OFF THE USER MANUAL (as the shipping box info in less than minimal). The Aria Smart Scale requires one knowing their Wifi router's password - as the scale's connection is via the local (residential) WiFi network. The Fitbit Alta-HR arm band uses Blue Tooth to connect to your smart phone; one can then access the phone data via its WiFi access to your computer, if you want to see the phone's Bluetooth data on a larger screen or print it off. As the Aria scale relies on WiFi to transmit data - I used my computer to setup the scale, once the WiFi connection to / from the computer was established. This also allows one to easily add up to 8 different user of the scale. One's weight and BMI are displayed on the scale's LCD window, as well as transmitted to the app and Fitbit computer program. I personally had no problems with the scale setup and it's integration into the Fitbit phone app as well as the Fitbit computer program. I don't have any long-term experience with battery life or durability of the scale - so I gave it a 4 star rating.", "label": 1}

With it sitting at the end of my couch, that has a recliner in each end, to read its just right. Any higher and it would make a glare on my glasses. With the diffuser, the silver grate looking thing, it keeps it from having a lot of glare when sitting below the head of it. It doesn't light up a whole room this way but it also keeps it from making a bright reflection on my TV screen like my other lamp did. The diffuser also makes it so that it puts out a cone of nice bright white light under and around it so when sitting next to you can have plenty of light to read without being bright enough to bother anybody else in the room. This makes it a more personal lamp kinda like the little lights over your seat in a airplane. If you want more light from it just take the diffuser off. This will double or almost triple the area that it lights up. But then it does make a lot of glare.
About the only thing I would change would be to put the switch on the column instead of under the head. That way it would be easier to reach while sitting next to it. And it had a little too much wire so when putting it together it was a bit difficult to get all of it poked inside the tube so I could get the head on it.

This is like taking medication, it tastes fake as all get out and the sweetner is horribly artificial, but it has 0g of carbs so that's what you get. I don't downgrade this at all for the taste. In my opinion it doesn't need to taste good. I'm fine with the taste, but it's not good in my opinion as some maintain.
The reason I downgraded this to 1 star is that mixing it in my shaker bottle produces the worst drinkable liquid I've made with my shaker. I've got a few other brands of protein that I use as well and do not have the same issues mixing that I do with the Nectar. Putting one scoop of powder in, 1 or maybe 2 ice cubs and then 8-12oz of water makes this giant bottle of foam. It's like I'm shaking a bottle of coke or something. I need to then wait minutes for it to turn back into a liquid and I'm sure I'm leaving probably 20-30% of this in the bottle as it would take probably 20-30 minutes for it all to turn back to liquid form. This issue has gotten worse the longer I've had this protein, to the point I don't even want to finish off the jar. Whatever they're putting in here to flavor/sweeten this has gone rogue and makes this a waste of time for me.
I feel the blend is good, it gives me the 0 grams of carbs I was looking for, but it's inability to produce a decent liquid to drink using my shaker bottle undermines what probably is an effective protein.", "label": 0}

While some debate exists as to whether cooking with extra virgin olive oil is a healthy choice, I've used it for many years because it's healthy relative to many of the other available choices, and has a pleasant taste. At least, I personally find it to have a pleasant taste for most foods I typically cook. In recent years, I've also periodically made use of coconut oil, around which debate also exists, but unlike extra virgin olive oil all of the coconut oil products I've seen come in either sprays or solid form, and one of the main reasons I became interested in MCT oil is its being available in liquid form. I've used this Strength Genesis product several times in recent days after trying a similar product from QSTA in recent months, and am fond of both because these provide a very light relative to extra virgin olive oil to the point of having zero taste. The main challenge I've found cooking with these oils is that a non-stick surface isn't created as it is with extra virgin olive oil, although this Strength Genesis product provides a slightly better cooking surface than QSTA. So when making a turkey burger, for example, I need to remind myself to flip frequently, and when making over-easy eggs it's guaranteed that I will end up scraping the pan. The main differences between this Strength Genesis and QSTA is that the former is 60% C8 and 40% C10 in contrast to 100% C10, but the latter also comes at a 50% cost discount.

I had an issue with the first eyelash curler I recieved. The company reached out to me and quickly fixed the issue without any run around and made things right.
I have long natural eyelashes that don't like to stay up and I won't risk damaging them with traditional eyelash curlers that in the past have cut the tips off. The heated eyelash curler gets my eyelashes up there and they actually stay put for the entire day without damaging them or crimping them funny. I don't have to use as much mascara either. I have tried it with and without mascara. It works both ways but works much, much faster with a coat or 2 of mascara. In just 2-3 passes with mascara my eyelashes are up where I want them to be. It is a little unsettling having heat that close to my eyes and their is a slight learning curve but it's pretty self explanatory and you could get the results you want with a little patience. It heats up to full temperature in 1 minute or less so I don't turn it on until my eyelashes are dry and I'm ready to use it to try and save the battery.
My only complaint is that I wish the battery lasted longer. I can realistically get 3 uses out of it, but it does charge quickly so it's not a problem.

I own an Oral B Genius Pro 8000, and this fits perfectly. It performs identically to the name brand (Oral B) brush heads. Unlike some replacement brushes that are a noticeably snug/tight fit, these attach with the same ease as the name brand brush, too.
But, all is not wonderful. There's a reason that they use illustrations and not true photos of the brush head. The sections of bristles are not as well grouped/defined as a new Oral B brush. The bristles do not appear as uniformly packed, seeming to be a bit 'sloppy'. However, the brush still seems to perform fine. A test brushing felt as thorough as a brand name brush session.
I appreciate that the brush heads are individually sealed/wrapped. Many brush heads come in a group on a blister card. So, when you use one, you open the package and the remaining brushes are no longer protectively sealed. This is a big plus, in my opinion.
Attached are photos to show real world images, with comparison pictures with an Oral B brush head. Also, images of the product attached to my Oral B Genius Pro 8000, to show perfect fit.
The cost is much less than the brand name replacement brush heads. However, this set of 8 is a bit pricey when compared to other quality replacement heads.

Once you put the sponge in the water, let it sit there for a few seconds and it will get really soft and start growing bigger.
When I used my sponges, I use them without any product on them because this only irritates my sensitive skin even more. I use it moving in a circular motion going upward. I have to say, afterward I had no skin irritation at all, and my skin felt really soft and silky. This sponge will leave your skin feeling like you just had a deep cleanse too. I will be purchasing more of this not only for myself, but for friends and family. I recommend this Konjac sponges to anyone that has sensitive skin, even anyone that doesn\u2019t.

The base of the shoe where the ball of the foot is, can be too thin and it can be hard on the feet. These pads do seem to help, but let's take a closer look.
WHAT ARE THESE PADS LIKE?
These pads are for the ball of the foot. They have a place for the area under the toes so you know where to put them. The backing is a type which will hold into place pretty well. It can be washed and reused. The cushion has some flock on it which keeps it soft instead of overly rubbery.
HOW DO THESE PERFORM?
So far, I have a pair on one of my shoes. The pad did make the shoe slightly tighter, but that pair had the room. If the shoes are really fitted, they could make it too tight. The pad did not seem to slide around that much and so far they have been good. If I am not careful, however, they will slide.
FUTURE UPDATES?
I will continue to test them in other shoes, however and update my review if I have anything to add.
THE BOTTOM LINE
For reusable pads for the ball of the foot in some shoes that just are too hard, these are nice. They will make the shoes tighter, so you need to have room for them.

The 1st bag I had was a brand name purchased at Target for well more than it was worth... roughly $65.00. The gray and white print quickly rubbed off the side and bottom and the waterproof pocket was far from what it claimed so after 1 upset with a bottle of breast milk it was it the trash.
The 2nd bag was a ThirtyOne bag which was a gift and came highly recommended and I am still trying figure out why. The zipper didn't actually connect so my baby was able to reach into the sides and pull everything out. That's just not practical when you keep you wallet, phone and other important or private items.
The 3rd bag was my push present for our 2nd child and I absolutely had to have it. I ordered it online from Guess and spent close to $200 on a designer bag. It is cute, and huge but ridiculously heavy. It is hard to carry and zips out to turn the entire bag into a changing station however the contents fall out.
I was offered this diaper bag during a promotional period in exchange for my honest unbiased evaluation. This diaper bag has a sophisticated look that I am happy with carrying for my daily bag. It is the right size to carry diapers, bottles, clothes, snacks, my over-sized wallet and phone, a small milk cooler and a few small toys... for 2 babies. The material is quality but also light weight. The zipper closes the bag and tucks down inside so that little fingers can't get into it.

The first brush I got the silicone covering didn\u2019t have an opening where the charger connects. I thought about poking a hole through, but I was worried that I would void the warranty if I did that, so I exchanged it. My second brush came before I sent the first one back. It also was impossible to charge without poking a hole in the silicone. At this point I\u2019m like whatever I\u2019ll just poke some holes. Both charged fine. You have to hold the power button down for a while for it to turn on- longer than 1 second.
Brush one: had the strongest vibration, but hardly heated up, and didn\u2019t chill that much. I sent this one back.
Brush two: good vibration and chill functions. Heat function gets very hot, slowly cools to warmish, then super hot again. I kept this one. Over time the heating and chilling functions have become less strong, but the vibrating function still works well.
Bottom line is they tried to pack too many functions into one small inexpensive devise. I think to make a devise that was truly good hearing, cooling and vibration that it would cost quite a bit more. I would not buy it again.
I did appreciate that it came in minimal packaging (no plastic), but the plastic base it comes with is unnecessary, ugly, and the brush doesn\u2019t even sit well in it.", "label": 0}

I was pleased to find that these are not incredibly large, and that the weights aren't too heavy, the texture is very smooth, and the pull cord is sturdy.
I washed them up and tried them in the shower. I stay in the shower an average 10-15 minutes, and that's a good enough beginner time frame for me. The balls were somewhat difficult to insert without lubricant (I won't make that mistake again) but once they were in place, the rest was simple.
I could feel them in place, and with contraction of my muscles, I could feel them raise or lower. When my shower was finished, I gave the cord a gentle pull and easily removed them, washed them, and was done.
Now that I've given them a few tries, I can already feel a small difference, and know there will be increased improvement. My partner has never complained about my tightness (in fact, just the opposite] but he did make a comment which leads me to think he already feels a difference.
As a bonus, I feel a slight muscular pull in my back and abdominal muscles as well, noting that I use those muscles when contracting my PC muscles. My posture is better considering I stand while using them. Maybe if I use them more often, I'll have a report to share regarding that:)", "label": 1}

I got this because nearly all the women in my family have kidney problems. My sister's have kidney infections all the time, and I thought this might be good to have on in hand in case I or they needed it.
The pills come with a nice little free pill holder, and the cranberry pills smell kinda nice.
I've been taking one everyday since I received them. The first day I took them, I felt like I got a bit of heartburn, but after that day, I don't think I've had any adverse side effects at all---other than I've been having to go number 1 a lot. My kidneys haven't been bothering me, and I feel pretty good. I'm thinking that they are a good product. I'd really like to test them on my sister's if ever the need arises, but maybe if they took them they wouldn't get kidney problems. I don't know. I'll have to tell them about this product and see what they think.
On the package it says that it's GMO free, and I hope that's true, because besides having vitamin c, vitamin e, and cranberry concentrate, it does have fillers (probably the outer shell of the pill) The other ingredients include soybean oil, gelatin, beeswax, vegetable glycerin. I'd much rather that it didn't have soybean oil. But if they help my kidneys, I won't complain.

I had read about these kinds of supplements a few years ago. Yours truly will step into the breach to give them a try.
General observations:
I sit here on an early Saturday morning after quite the Friday night. I should be hung over but I'm only dehydrated a bit.
The first pill went down the hatch at 6pm on an empty stomach. I set an alarm for 4 hours later to take the other as directed. I waited for a half hour before I started imbibing any spirits.
Your mild mannered hero reviewer then had a few cocktails before dinner and then a few glasses of wine with dinner. I noticed that the effects of the alcohol were not as intense as it usually would be for me after that much drink. I still did feel like I was under the influence so any driving was out of the question.
As the night went on, I continued to overindulge far more than I usually would for a Friday night. It was a fun night. I seemed to be able to consume more drink far too easily.
There was no way that these pills kept me from being impaired to operate a motor vehicle.
Saturday morning, no typical hangover headaches or other telltale symptoms. Just a bit dehydrated and still a little impaired.
The Good:
These supplements did exactly what they claimed to do for me.
The Bad:
Nothing Bad.
The Ugly:
Nothing Ugly.

Even though the label says it is clear zinc, it is actually an off-white color that goes on almost clear. Sometimes my lips will look a little pale just after application and in that case I smack my lips together and slide them around a bit to evenly distribute the balm and then the product is clear. The texture (or lip feel) of Z Block makes lips a tad too waxy and thus too tacky for my taste, so I apply a thin coat of Neosporin's Overnight Renewal Therapy over the Z Blok to achieve that perfectly hydrated, moist (but not shiny or slippery), wax-free lip feeling. Typically, I just use this once a day, but if I'm outdoors for an extended period, I will reapply it just to make sure I won't burn...just as I would for SPF30 sunscreen. It's nice that it comes in a 3-pack so that you can keep them on hand wherever you are and it's nice that it is applied directly to the lips...you don't need to clean your finger before dipping it in a tiny tub of lip balm or wipe product out from under your fingernail.

This would be a great gift. Why? Usually there's a chow hall available that soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen can at least sometimes get to.

Often troops cannot get potable (drinkable) water and instead use bottled water (supplied in abundance). One of these packets in a water bottle makes a great, refreshing, on-the-go drink. Best of all, it's sugar-free, providing a great balance to sodas, Gatorade and other high-sugar products. If you had an MRE (meal, ready-to-eat), this drink would make a great accompaniment.

Sadly, this stuff didn't work for me. I have some Durango boots I've been wearing for about a year, but they've picked up a slight funk.
They are not terribly stinky, but it's enough that I've become self conscious about it. I only wear wool socks with my boots, so I was surprised my boots have started to stink in the first place. Furthermore, because they are leather boots and not sneakers, there are fewer places for the sink to accumulate, so disinfecting/deodorizing them should be pretty simple.
I have thoroughly saturated the boots with this product, and all efforts have met with temporary success at best. I've tried soaking the boots in chlorinated water and sun drying them (wore them in the pool and sloshed around), and nothing has worked. Foot powder still works better than anything, but I don't like the mess it makes.
My plan now is to buy a boot dryer and just use that every time I take off my boots. I'm giving this product two stars because it is mildly effective, and perhaps it is more effective at preventing shoe stink than it is at removing it. But it did not work for my intended purpose.

The boot dryer is the way to go. To encourage the process, I added just a few drops of "clean linen" fragrance oil (Yankee Candle Co.) on either side of each insole. No more stink.

Or you could just be a normal person and use a teaspoon like they say. In which case, it'll just turn your teeth brown, without the energizing effects.
For me, it really didn't do much, unless I used it at very high doses, and then it didn't feel that great, and the crash was not fun. Love the deep, earthy, strong taste, though. But you might not. Most people that are used to lab-created tastes don't really like the taste of nature's medicines.
So although overall, I'm not a big fan and will not buy it again, I really can't give less than 4 stars, because it does work. Better than coffee, which just gives me a slight tummy ache and nervousness. Better than that hideous 5 hour energy stuff, which makes me feel like I need to check myself into a mental ward (anxiety, shaky nerves, racing thoughts, verging on paranoia...yuck)
So if you're looking for a new energy source, give guarana it a try. Or just take up running. That's what I did and I feel better than I ever did with any of these energy supplement, and I've tried them all, from all-natural, to lab-created chemicals.", "label": 1}

These bamboo cotton reusable rounds are much less wasteful and so soft on your skin! They absorb my makeup remover just fine, and take off my makeup with little issue. I find they work better than the cotton pads for toners and softener because they don't hold onto the liquid quite as much. I wash them immediately after use and leave them on a table to dry. At the end of the week, I put them all in the included mesh laundry bag and toss them into the washing machine with the rest of my laundry. They always emerge perfectly clean.
I give it four stars instead of five because of the container. I adore this brand, and have a couple of their metal containers. This one is plain bamboo, which gives a nice sophisticated but understated look.

We have a fabric sofa and a Blue Heeler mix who sheds gobs of dog hair.

Then I throw them in the wash and they come out with less dog hair, but still quite a bit. so....I bought these...hoping they will minimize some of the dog hair in the wash and help me get dog hair off the sofa.
I was skeptical at first because I have tried lint rollers, those paddles/brushes have have the one directional fibers that are supposed to magically sweep the dog hair away and those things hardly work at all. BUT, I first tried one of these things on the sofa. It quickly gathered up a decent gob of fur that I was able to grab and throw away. Those fleece blankets I love so much.....threw those in the wash with these sticky hair removers and WOW!!!!The had quite a bit of fur on both of them and less fur in the lint catcher. Then all I did was rinse them outside(I don't want all that fur going down the drains) with a dab of Dawn dish soap. They are both sticky again and ready for the next wash.
The shape of this set of Pet Hair Removers works well for my hands too. They are easy to grip and I don't get any cramping in my hands at all from swiping them over the couch fabric. They were worth it and worked much better than I thought they would. I would buy them again.", "label": 1}

SIZE:
I know I'm not the only massage therapist with larger than normal hands, so it's good to note that the 3 \"extra large\" I found to be a good large size but the \"large\" seemed more like medium, \"medium\" more like small and so on. Smaller stones lose heat faster so it's good that there are more smaller stones.
SHAPE:
all of these stones are beveled on the edges. The shape is more geometric than the natural variations and rounded edges that I'm used to working with. It's more a personal preference than a pro or con.
QUANTITY:
way more stones than you'll use in a single treatment, I like to reheat used stones during a massage thus I have a lot of stones left over from this set. Good when you have more treatments to go before you can wash them, but I find the next warm stone treatment I do with the left over stone is done with all the stones I didn't want to use in the first one.
I could easily see needing more of one size and less of another over time as you do more treatments or find your personal style, but these are a good solid set of stones if you need a starter set. The carrying case (not that I recommend carrying this weighty package around a lot) is really handy. I keep the stones in the case when not in use, but If you're already got a place for them the wooden case looks like it would make a nice tea box to offer your clients.", "label": 1}

I had left two of the big zucchini on the table because the garbage bag was beginning to weigh more than what any of my kids would take out without asking for money (a LOT of money). Anyway, I was at the table trying to figure out how to use the knife sharpener and my son came in, said \"great looking knife sharpener!\" He knew what it was AND he knew how to use it! I was so impressed with how well it works, and how EASY it is, that I asked my kiddo if I could video him cutting the zucchini for the review - wait until you see how easy it is and what an amazing difference it makes.

Cons: It has a permanent "lean downward" towards the center of the bed. Also, one of the legs kept sliding down (the button kept slipping instead of staying in the hole) causing that side of the table to cave, and everything would fall off. My husband drilled a hole and screwed that leg permanently at the level of the other leg. IF the manufacturer wanted to improve on the design, they could insert corner supports under the table top where it meets the legs. That could prevent the "sag" or lean downwards towards the center of the bed. The other way it could be permanently improved would be to create the table-to-leg at about a 50 to 55 degree setting instead of the 45 degree (which causes the sag). Even placing diagonal metal supports from the legs to the table would keep the table up and horizontal to the bed. Pros: It's very easy to slide out and replace when you need to change sheets. The table top also has a "lip" all the way around that helps keep items from sliding off the table. It's lightweight, easy to clean, doesn't rust (we live on an island) and you can place it closer to you or farther down the bed, wherever you want it without any trouble at all.

Each box contains six compartments. The pillbox in place securely to the exterior plastic case, ensuring that the latches inside will not open. The top of the pillbox comes off so it is easy to \"load\" pills into each box. Each compartment locks solidly in place. Both outside containers are white, with one clear pillbox and one black.

There are 2 pairs of gloves in this set. A set of gloves that are unlined that feel just like a second skin - providing the ultimate in dexterity while still protecting your hands. The other is a pair of gloves that is flocked with a cotton liner making them not only easier to get on and take off but softer and providing some protection from hot dish water.
On both the tips of the fingers are reinforced giving extra durability yet still allowing for excellent dexterity and range of motion. The texture on the palm and finger pads aides in being able to grip and hold anything you are working on without any issue.
The forearm protection 6.5\u201d giving the ability to reach down into liquids without the liquid flooding the glove - the total length of the glove is 12.6\u201d.
These gloves are constructed from PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) and are thus Latex free making them excellent for those with a Latex allergy.
I have really put these gloves to the test with the unlined gloves I have worked outside, scrubbing metal cabinets with wire brushes and chemicals and have yet to wear through a single pair! I have used the lined gloves as I\u2019ve cleaned my grill and scoured countless dirty pans.

Light weight, Clean design, decent sealing, great air flow, quiet, physical remote control
Cons
User manual rather less informative, overwhelmed user interface, lack of options of filter replacement, filmy cover.
We have owned 3 blueair air purifiers around home and have been using those for over 3 years. Seeking for an additional one goes to the basement to help odor control. We decided to go for a more budget friendly options since the purifier would be using in the basement only.
Long story short, it works, and it actually works pretty well compares to our existing blueair classic given how much different in unit cost.
The removable filter has a foamed frame and it acted as a seal between the filter itself and the inner body of purifier, the sealing works really good and can feel very strong suction when covered by hand.
Odor were noticeably weaker after an hour of initial usage, and our basement is pretty much odor free by the time I am putting this together (1 week & 24/7 operation).
It is pretty quiet, it comes with physical remote control (I personally really like it over the in App Wi-fi control) and very light in weight, sometime way too light that it could be knock over easily if it has been placed at high traffic location with kids around.
I wish the user manual could provide more details on difference of modes (what exactly is Anion mode? Like Auto mode?) also explanation on air quality monitor value would be nice. Other minor stuff such as 3 levels of fan speed being indicated as 3 bars > 6bars > 8 bars bothers me a little.

I found that all these batteries are SLA or sealed lead acid, so that is not a critical feature. I did buy a third battery for another single battery UPS, so I could get a small discount. The package arrived earlier than expected on my door step within a card board box, covered in a thinly padded US Postal "priority mail" mailer; each battery was in a thin open plastic baggy, I'm guessing to prevent the possibility of acid leakage damaging the other batteries. One of the F2 terminals was bent but easily straightened; if you use a metal screw driver, be careful not to short out against the other terminal. Double check your wiring before sealing it up; one of the connectors came loose and there was no output voltage - I used a voltmeter to confirm. If there is no voltage on a BX1500, the "Replace Battery" LED is lit solid and the alarm beeps every 2 seconds. Carefully read the specs at any battery site; I've seen several "suggested" batteries listed at a lower capacity of 7 or 8 amps - 7 amps is only sufficient for a lower capacity UPS like the APC BX1000.
If you don't plan to replace UPS batteries soon, pull them out; there was a slight difficulty removing them after I had left spent batteries installed for more than a year - they can bulge with age.", "label": 1}

I use this brush at home on the weekends or days when I am working from home. I am very happy with the performance of this brush. If you are new to this type of shaving there are two types of brushes, fan loft and bulb loft. This is a very pronounced bulb loft. Some people prefer the fan loft as there is more brush to face contact, but I prefer the bulb loft. It's a personal choice. A fan loft is better at lathering your face if you use the same circular motion to apply the lather to your face as you do lathering the brush in your cup. A bulb loft is better at lathering in the cup (IMO) and you use a painting vice circular motion to apply the lather to your face. This brush performs very well and returns to its original shape (which is very well groomed) when dry. I dry it inverted on a Perfecto Deluxe Chrome Razor and Brush Stand. Great quality, a great price, performs great and looks good on the stand (my wife doesn't make me hide it in a drawer). If you are looking a for a good everyday brush, I highly recommend this one.

Bracoo brace provides uniform pressure around the arm. That is better than nothing & does offer a little support to help in healing. But it doesn't support the tendon nearly as well. And to work effectively the Bracoo brace needs to be tight enough to restrict circulation, which obviously won't help it heal.
And for those who prefer to heal faster and solve the problem on a more permanent basis buy a brace & also buy a Thera-Band FlexBar. Here is the Amazon link: [[ASIN:B000KGOMBC Thera-Band Flexbar, Green, Medium]] Depending on how bad your injury is start slow with your hands on the outside of the green (medium) FlexBar (like five reps a day) and work up to ten or fifteen reps with your hands on the inside (where it is harder to use so the muscles get a harder workout). It will take a week to a month (depending on the severity of the damage to the tendon) to see results but it works for almost everyone.
The reason is simple: The tendon is damaged because the muscles on the "other side" of the arm are weak. I'm talking about the small muscles that get big stress only when we do things like play golf/tennis/etc. Using the FlexBar every day will target and slowly but surely strengthen these small weak muscles. This will keep the tendon from continually being stressed too far, allow it to heal much quicker, and in almost all cases prevent re-injury (if the FlexBar is used a couple of times a week to maintain muscle strength).", "label": 0}

The concern is if it\u2019s necessary to replace this item prior to being available online? And second issue.. what will these cost! This matters for me to make a claim this is value worthy to a buyer. As you can see- these questions can affect whether this purchase holds true value: if/when/how much replacement filters will be.. and it\u2019s my reason for detecting x1 star.
As for functionality.. this seems very easy and straightforward. This contains solid and helpful instructions that include diagrams as well as real time photos- see pic.\u2019s I included. It also includes a small screwdriver which is needed to open cover at given time- very helpful to be all inclusive. *hack: keep instruction manual, extra filter included and tool all in one place.. this will simplify the filter swap when needed!
Buttons are white with gray writing and have indicator light when selected.. but, for any with less than stellar eyesight- You may need to navigate choices under regular light source.. at least till you\u2019ve become familiar with button placement. Otherwise, it can be hard to see. Not a deal breaker just a factor to consider.. who will be end user and could this pose an issue? Once you selected a function.. this works as expected and does a fantastic job.

My girlfriend, Tammy, is short and petite. The shower wrap is a Plus Size. However, it fits Tammy perfectly. She has been wearing it for over a month now. The shower wrap is made of 80% Polyester and 20% Polyamide. However, it is soft like cotton. Tammy has washed it in cold water on gentle cycle and hung it up to dry. The care tag reads: \u201cDo Not Bleach/Tumble Dry Low.\u201d Tammy likes to shower at night after coming home from work. Six people live in my condo; two of them are impressionable young children. The wrap, she informs me, feels good against her skin and it covers her entire body.
The shower wrap hugs her body, thanks to Velcro strips and a stretchable, elastic band. In addition, it has a small loop sewn into its back, allowing Tammy to hang it up on her closet door when it is not in use. Right now, she wears the shower wrap only when she showers. However, this summer she will be taking it to the home of her parents who own a beautiful in-ground swimming pool. Furthermore, the shower wrap arrived sealed inside a transparent protective bag.

It has done wonders to keep my blood pressure under control naturally and with no side effects. The first time I tried it, I had elevated blood pressure of around 148/90. This was due to stress at work, taking care of my aging parent, and worrying about my blood pressure. Anyway, I decided to try 2 capsules that evening before bedtime. The next morning when I got up and checked my blood pressure, it clocked in at 118/78. I was very happy and relieved. I also did research on Hawthorne, and found that it dilates the blood vessels making it easier for the heart to pump blood through the body to all vital organs, resulting in reduced blood pressure. Blood flow to all vital organs is essential for good health. Also, depending on your lifestyles, some individuals may need to take Hawthorne for a while in order to realize the benefits. Furthermore, exercise and diet is beneficial while taking Hawthorne, as it helps clean the cardiovascular system out. I do 30 minutes of treadmill and 275 pushups every day. A most recent check of my blood pressure last night showed 106/60.
The bottle recommended dosage is 1-4 capsules daily. I usually take 1 capsule 2-3 times daily at mealtime. If I miss it, it doesn't hurt, as there is enough benefit from previous doses.

With newborns, Pampers was my choice. I had to change diapers often, and they worked great at working against diaper rash. Admittedly, though, as my children got older, we gravitated toward Huggies wipes. Pampers seems to have different kinds of wipes. There was one kind that seemed so slimy, we couldn't bear to use it, and it seemed that no matter how hard we tried we ended up with that particular one. We keep wipes just about everywhere and use them on our hands, too(particularly during car rides). We prefer Huggies when it comes to hand use.
These are great, though, when it comes to backsides! They ARE a little more on the slimy side than Huggies, but these are more durable. With Huggies wipes, they're constantly tearing or we end up pulling out 4 wipes stuck together.
These seem to come apart(from each other)much better. You can tug and pull on these and see just how much more durable they are. We generally have better coupons from Pampers, so we usually end up with Pampers wipes. I'll be honest, though, and say that when we have the coupons, we get Huggies wipes. We like them both for different reasons! We ONLY use one of the two, though. From my experience and opinion, just forget generic brands when it comes to wipes.
If your little one has a sensitive backside, though, I highly recommend these! These ARE scented, so if that bothers you, there's the unscented sensitive kind, too.", "label": 1}

I used plastic epoxy from Walmart and it ended up looking even better than the original! THEN while cleaning the wax off the glass plate I dropped the glass wax tray and broke it... I used the glass tray off a different wax burner while I ordered a generic replacement off Amazon for $4.oo (they both worked amazingly for wax AND oil!)...
The 2nd one had no faults whatsoever, but either way, broken peices are incredibly easy to repair and really ANY glass plate for the wax and oil works just as good!
The dragon (with colored wax) glows with whatever colored wax you put in. It's a really neat effect!
The wax melts as expected, and disperses a nice \"room filling\" scent (depending of course on the wax \"flavor\"... some are stronger than others) I usually use 2 cubes.
The oil is another way to use the dragon! I actually prefer putting like 10-20 drops of oil on the tray over the wax... But I like strong scents!
Overall we both REALLY enjoy this dragon! It gets daily use and was worth buying a 2nd one when the first shattered beyond repair. Broken parts are really easy to fix! And the glass tray can be replaced by about anything - so all in all, fantastic value for money!

This company is GREAT about support and emailed me right back with links to videos that were easy to understand and did a great job showing how to use these.
I really liked that I didn't have to purchase 3 different rollers! You get THREE with this set and they all work a little differently.
My reason for wanting to try these is that I have pretty intense nerve and muscle pain from Fibromyalgya and have a really hard time sleeping at night because of pain.
I've started using these right before I go to bed and I'm pretty amazed at how well they work and how much they help!
I will say that if you are like me and don't have super good agility and range of motion, it will be a little more difficult to get in to the positions necessary to utilize these the right way but with time, it does get easier. When you eliminate pain, you can move easier thus making exersize much more doable!
Of all of the rollers out there on the market, I'm glad I got a chance to try this one! They did extend a promotional price to me if I agreed to give my honest opinion and feedback :)
I can indeed say that for the price and quality, this is a great set to have for those wanting to try massage rollers!

But one thing sets this one apart from the rest of them:
This company actually OFFERS replacement parts!! That is HUGE with these things. Most of the blades on these things will last maybe 3 months or so and then, because their parent company offers no parts, you need to throw the entire thing away and buy a new one. Such a waste!
Not in this case! The company allows you to purchase replacement blades for the trimmer and they even have a little maintenance guide that comes with it that recommends you oil it! I don't think I've ever seen any other company even mention maintenance with these things.
Sure you pay maybe $5 or $6 more buying one from this company; but it comes with replacement parts and it's fairly easy to take apart to maintain. So long as the electric motor and those plastic gears that drive the blade stay intact this device should last the longest out of any other company due to the support offered.
Highly recommended if you need a little trimmer like this!
My only gripe is that it's difficult (or impossible? I did not try very hard as I don't want to break it yet.) to get to the plastic gears that drive the blade from the electric motor.

A lot of weight loss books/sites advise you to only weigh yourself once a week anyway.

So to was a constant trek between the freezer and the sink to pour the water out of the bag and replenish the ice in the bag. There was wasted time doing other things when I should be cooling my knee.
So this Aqua Relief System had eliminated all of the wasted time above. You put as much ice inside the unit and fill it with water to the maximum fill line, attach your pad to the hose, wrap around knee, turn the unit on and set to the cooling time, then relax , it will auto shut off according to the set time. No more running to the freezer during treatment for ice.. After one hour the unit still had cold ice in it.
The only problem I had was the small cooling/heating pad that came with it , so I ordered a larger one.
This unit is very light to carry around , It has holes for attaching a shoulder strap. It is also very quiet to operate. In fact the low hum of the motor caused me to fall asleep.

I had originally ordered these for myself, as I have been wearing extra insole thingys in my shoes for the past year, and it has REALLY helped my foot pain. I am a preschool teacher, so I am on my feet from about 7am until around 1pm every single day.
When these arrived, they were in a very thick, professional looking box. They were very securely packaged, and arrived in great shape. I included a picture of the other brand inserts I have now, so that you can see the size variance.
I was bummed when I got them out however, to see that they were much too large. I did follow the size guideline, but these were clearly too big. After having read some other descriptions, I decided against trying to trim them down as they are made of VERY sturdy stuff.
Not wanting to disappoint the review readers, I gave them to my husband. Generally during the day he wears shoes with good insole support, but he does have some flat loafer type shoes that he also wears. He has never tried any extra support in these kinds of shoes prior to this.
After wearing them a few days, he said he DID notice a significant reduction in foot fatigue, and he also reported having less back and hip discomfort as well.
My husband has never been diagnosed with any sort of problem, but he really liked these after a few days and is for sure going to keep using them. He did say they made athletic shoes too tight, but for "flat" type shoes they were fantastic.
I can say these helped my husband out, and he was not even looking for anything in the pain relief area!!!

The only downfall is the price but if you're really looking to get all those macros in then you know it's worth the sacrifice. It was more expensive when I bought it at my local nutrition store so luckily I was able to find it here and save a couple of bucks every time I buy it.
Now, of course it's not going to have the same texture or the exact same taste as regular peanut butter. You can't realistically think that it will. It's a high protein, of course it's going to be a little different. I've had a spoonful, I've had it in shakes and I've had it as a spread, and not matter which why I've eaten it, it's really good. Never had an aftertaste or anything like that.
The texture is a little different, it's not as creamy as regular peanut butter, it's a noticeably a tad more grainy...probably something along the lines of wet sand (fyi I've never eaten wet sand, that's just the closest I can come to describing it). It's also a little harder to spread than regular peanut butter, I tore my slice of bread the first time I spread it but you get accustomed to it. One thing I did notice was that I had to mix it before every time I was about to get a serving because the water in it tends to rise to the top. Just a couple of swirls with a spoon or butter knife and you'll be good to go.
If you love peanut butter, love white chocolate and you're looking for a high protein blend to fulfill you're daily macro intake then this is the peanut butter for you. I have never turned back and I doubt that you will once you get a taste of it.", "label": 1}

As someone who works out regularly, I'm always looking for ways to optimize my training, and this supplement has been a valuable addition to my routine.
The Momentous Huberman Stack comes with 60 servings, which provides a decent supply to last me through my training cycles. The inclusion of Fadogia Agrestis, which is known for its potential benefits in supporting testosterone levels and muscle recovery, is what initially caught my attention.
I've noticed a significant improvement in my performance at the gym since starting to use it and feel like I have more energy, endurance, and focus during my workouts, allowing me to push harder and recover faster. I've also experienced less muscle soreness after intense training sessions, which has been a welcomed change.
The quality of the product is evident, and the taste is pleasant, which makes it easy to incorporate into my routine. The packaging is also convenient and easy to use.
Although this supplement is on the pricier side, I believe it's worth the investment for people who are looking to optimize their performance and recovery. However, it's important to note that individual results may vary, and it's always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before adding any new dietary supplement to your routine.
In conclusion, this has been a powerful addition to my training regimen, improving my performance and recovery. It's a high-quality product that delivers results, and I highly recommend it for those looking to take their athletic performance to the next level.", "label": 1}

I found myself needing more tea (and making a cup of tea isn't always the easiest) and stumbled upon these chews. The reviews were all over the place. Some people loved them while some people could not swallow it down. But I wasn't too worried over that. No what worried me was that the reviews noted the taste to be like a combination of licorice and lemon.
I can not stand licorice (the black traditional yuckiness -WHY is that even made into candy??). Ever since I was little I would rather go without candy than eat licorice candy. To me, the black jelly bean is pretty close to being near sacrilege.
So now that you know my background of despising licorice...you can see why I was so worried to try these but the ease of a chew made a compelling case for me to at least try it.
I took a breath and ordered it.
It arrived today and as I ripped open the package- I stared at the contents contemplating if I had wasted money.
I took another breath and ate one.
Immediately a pleasant lemon flavor. Upon chewing is, yes I can sense the licorice flavor undertones (but the lemon flavor was always there). For one who despises licorice- this chew was utterly delightful and tasty.
On a fun note, It's square shape, wrapper and chew consistency reminded me of healthy version of a Starburst candy.
If you want to try these, one thing that might be helpful is if you first try the tea. The tea has a distinct flavor and I wonder if it was advantageous that my taste buds knew what they were in for.", "label": 1}

It\u2019s not an excuse to leave smelly things around and expect it to smell good. But it does make it easy to leave no smell at all in a space that normally does. There may be someone out there who can make this work by being messy but I don\u2019t recommend you do that. It takes away what benefits this brings.

There are twelve total bottles; each bottle has a tight plastic seal around the cap. It takes a bit of effort to remove the seal.
The taste is that of strawberry - a bit fruity/sweet, but also some sourness to it.
The texture of the liquid is a bit thick.
I drank a bottle on its own; its thickness and taste made it slightly tough to drink the entire bottle.
The next day, I drank a second bottle, and then drank water right after. It made the product more tolerable for my taste.
I find this works best for me when I poured the Protein 2GO into a bottle, and added about 6 ounces of water. Makes it less sweet, and more of a liquid. I took it to work, left it in the fridge until I was ready to use it. Tastes great when it's cold.
I have not experienced any side effects (I wasn't anxious, fidgety, etc).
It gives me a nice boost to get me through the last few hours at work, when I am most tired, but still need to be productive at work.
I like that one bottle gives me 26g of protein; there are no fats, no carbohydrates, no sugars, no cholesterol.

I despise the tall, cylindrical containers that disinfecting wipes comes in because inevitably, after I pull out one wipe, even though I stick the end corner in the little grabber thingy at the top, the wipe falls back inside the container. Every single time which means I have to pull the top off, reach inside and reconnect the end of the wipe to the grabber thingy. May sound like a small problem but it annoys the heck out of me. So now I purchase my Clorox or Lysol wipes in the flat packs, such as the ones baby wipes come in. I cut the pack open on the side and just transfer all the wipes in at once. Couldn\u2019t be easier. The bottom part of the top of the lid has some kind of gasket/seal that keeps it tightly closed. I would have given this item 5 stars had it not been for the top part which you lift open to access the wipes. To me, it could close just a smidge tighter but maybe it was just a fluke with my particular one. I put a huge, heavy book on top for about a week and it seems to close fine now. I\u2019ve been using the wipes for a few weeks now and each one is perfect, not the least bit dried out. And most importantly to me, EVERY SINGLE WIPE comes out perfectly - one at a time, no rips or tears and not attached to the one below it so you don\u2019t have to tuck the bottom one back in.

The handle design fits nicely in my hand while using it. The first time i used it 4 hairs just fell out which surprised me. It turns out I was using it wrong. You have to learn how to properly use one of these if you want it to last a long time. My first mistake was using hot water. Hot water loosens the bond the hairs have to the handle and if you let the hot water get to the handle, the hairs will start falling out rather quickly. So now I use room temperature water or a little bit warmer during use. I haven't had any hairs come out since. My next mistake happened when soaping the brush and creating the lather. You have to wrap your hand around the hairs close to the base with your thumb and forefinger for support. If you dont then the hairs will fray outwards and possibly fall out or become damaged forever. Also you can't push too hard. You only need the tip of the brush to make contact with the soap when creating the lather, you dont need to use all the hairs by pushing harder. If you do your best to protect and support the bristles then you will extend the life of the brush. When you are finished with the brush and have rinsed it out you need to get some of the water out so you need to shake the water out. Supporting the bristles again is very important here. Another thing I learned is that no matter how careful you are using it, the bristles still want to fray out after you're done using it. I found that re-using the mesh that the brush comes wrapped in helps keep the brush from fraying. I will include a picture of it. It may be a high maintenance brush but it Gives you a high quality shave and if you take care of it it should work for a long time.", "label": 1}

This product CAN be used for that, but it is much better suited for cleaning your quartz banger after a dab. This product will keep your quartz bangers crystal clear for probably 500+ dabs.
HOW TO USE :
I bought a bunch of dropper bottles from ebay (15ml) for like $4 and I fill those with the dark crystal and then drip it into my banger right after a dab. Be careful not to let it bubble up and over the nail (I wait about 30 seconds), because then when you torch that stuff that bubbled over on the outside it will get burnt on and will never come off, so just keep it on the inside and you're golden. Then take a Q-tip and rub it around with about 10 drops of dark crystal and it will lift up all of the left over oils and clean your banger like it's brand new.
You can also use this stuff and some steel wool to restore a gunked up old quartz banger, just take a microwavable container that fits your quartz banger nicely and fill it will the dark crystal, then microwave it until it is nice and warm. This will speed up the process. I do this about 5 times over the course of a day and once I feel like I have soaked it enough then I take some tweezers and a little bit of steel wool and jimmy rig a sort of \"Steel Wool Q-Tip\" to scrape the crusties off my old nast banger, and then after about 3 minutes it will look good as new!", "label": 1}

From the photos on the Amazon page, I thought you would pull to provide traction, but the pull only sets the length of the strap and then you can let go. I found that sitting in a chair facing the door gave the best traction as I could lean back slightly to increase traction, or lean forward slightly to release it. I'm 6'1\" (185cm) and the doors where I use it are only a few inches more. I could let go of the handle once I got a length I liked. Most of the pull was under the chin with the back of the head strap providing stability. 15 minutes or so and the pain was reduced quite a bit.
I have no problem with the tensioner buckle so far, but if it breaks as in some of the negative reviews, I'll replace it with a 2\" O ring or climbing carabineer so as to provide direct traction by pulling down. (The strap would slide through it and not be held by the buckle).
If you have trouble figuring out how to assemble, there is a short video on the Amazon sales page with the photos. My wife suggested that I install an \"O\" ring screw in my office ceiling so I could provide traction while sitting at the computer.

It took me longer to get the red rubber stopper out of the bottle than it did to remove 4 lines of decals on the side of one truck door!! Spray on, wait 1 to 1-1/2 minutes, scrape off (SLICK!!!), grab a rag and spray a little on the rag, wipe up any leftover residue, grab a spray bottle of water, rinse the door and you're done! Some spots we had to spray a little more on, probably didn't give it quite enough time to do it's thing. Seriously, though, this was a GREAT PURCHASE. On hindsight, I would have purchased a much, much smaller bottle. We probably didn't use even 2 ounces to do two truck doors!!

I've had others that when they get wet produce strong scent. These pretty much just smell the same as they do dry.
There's supposedly 8 scents: Lemon, Lavender, Orange, Rose, Lily, Spruse, Peony and Eucalyptus
Of these the only two I could get much off of were Eucalyptus which did smell nice and was recognizable and whatever the lighter pink one was (maybe Peony?) which smelled terribly floral (not my favorite). They're not labeled and most smell faint and kinda similar so the color is my only real guess on most of them. I think the orange one smelled kinda orangey for instance, but also vaguely floral.
In any case, one of the biggest issues was that the scent was so subtle for most it couldn't compete with anything else in my shower. Even my shampoo which is just Selsun Blue and not supposedly scented masked it.
They also don't melt well at all. The instructions say to keep out of direct spray and just a few drops will make it start to fizz. Um... unless you take a 90 minute long shower there's no way that's a good approach. I moved the shower head to spray right on them and still found myself breaking them up so I could get them all dissolved after 10 minutes which is longer than my normal shower (unless I'm shaving my legs which again...shaving creme will easily out scent these).
I think they really should just be considered bath bombs. Enjoy the color more, concentrate the scent and gives enough time and water contact to dissolve.", "label": 0}

The only thing that is not up to snuff is the alignment of the wire spring hinge. It is centered on the handle when in the down position, but is way off center when you flip it up, so it probably just needs to have the bent portion where it fits in the handle adjusted (not that I know how to do that), but it means that it doesn't spring open as reliably as it would if it engaged the handle completely.

1 \u00bd cup of water for every half scoop of pre-workout.
Then it\u2019s perfectly balanced for me.

I have a lower end percussing massager that I have used, but I was looking for something a little more sturdy and powerful. This really exceeded my expectations!!! I am a night shift nurse and I woke up for work to find this had been delivered. I didn't have time to check it out, so I took it to work with me and gave massages to my co-workers! Everyone loved it! In fact, day shift asked to try it out, so I left it there for them to use and will get it tonight. This morning, the day shift nurse was complaining of a crick in her neck. I sat her down on a chair and went to work on it with this amazing massager! She was in heaven and her neck felt MUCH better! It has three sets of four heads with different textures that provide different massages. The speed can be increased or decreased for your comfort. I was really surprised at how intense the massage is without adding ANY pressure to the massager itself. With my old massager, I had to press into my back to get a decent massage. This really give a deep massage. Using it on myself was much much easier, too. The handle is nice and long and super easy to grip. I really am very excited about this massager....as are my coworkers!! They will be so sad when I take it back home with me after work tonight. lol! I couldn't be more pleased with this purchase! It far exceeded my expectations!

It's formulated to be just tacky enough to stick, but not too sticky as to mess up your glasses.
I couldn't find a comprehensive ingredient list, but Nerdwax is a beeswax-based blend of natural and organic, cosmetic-grade ingredients. It looks like a tube of lip balm, but it's tackier. Apply it by rubbing some on the nose pads or the part of the frame that touches your nose (you can even apply it to the earpieces, if you don't have hair back there to get in the way.)
I mostly sit in the A/C, so I just apply a thin layer. It lasts a couple of hours on my oily skin. If I were in sweatier conditions, or moving around more, I could definitely apply a thicker layer, or build layers up throughout the day. It's easy to apply, and removes with a paper towel.
I didn't experience any breakouts or allergic reactions using Nerdwax. I didn't even really find that it left a residue behind. It's a great short-term solution for keeping my glasses where they're supposed to be. I do wish it lasted a little longer on my oily skin... and I wish it didn't look so much like my lipbalms, because I don't want to mix them up!

After seeing everyone's good comments about how it helped their skin, I decided to order it. I struggle with BAD acne during school when I have a lot of stress, and everything I tried seemed to have no effect. This toner is completely different than others. It doesn't contain alcohol, nor does it contain the same ingredients that EVERY OTHER TONER HAS... It's unique, and within a week, my acne disappeared, and my blackheads on my nose completely vanished! The acne comes and goes, but the blackheads were ALWAYS there, and this stuff got rid of it. My advice, if you're skeptical about this stuff, it's understandable, seeing how pricey it is compared to the cheaper stuff, but trust me, it's worth it. It also comes in a fairly nice sized bottle.
The only thing bad I have to say is that when you first put it on, it can be a little harsh, so I'm not sure if people with sensitive skin should try it, but that's just for me.

Oh, and i also love that there\u2019s a free pill container, so that when you leave home, or if you need to take it at a certain time, it will always be accessible.
Cranberry is honestly very good for you, that's why even in our juice, it's almost mixed with everything... Cranberry apple, cranberry and grape, and all sorts. I started taking cranberry because of the heath benefits that it claims especially for your urinary system. They say that this is great for preventing urinary tract infections. It is also said to have anti aging properties that oh i so would love. It is also good for your heart, your immune system, and it also helps regulate your weight!

I tried both the razor function and the epilator function. The directions contained in the box were clear and easy to understand. I appreciated that it came with paper instructions instead of many items now that do not and require you to watch a video online. The paper instructions were much easier to take in my bathroom as I tried for the first time instead of my laptop and a video.
I tried both functions on my arm first. The high speed of the epilator was a bit uncomfortable. Tried on my face. Tried the razor first. Then changed to the epilator. I first tried on low and then on high. Mistake! The machine literally caught my skin in it when on high speed. It cut the surface of the skin and left a mark like a cat scratched my face...see photo! That was it\u2026..I was done. No more!
There are 2 detachable pieces to switch between depending upon whether you want to use razor or epilator mode. They easily come off. It's clear/obvious how to align each piece and attach.
Couple of notes:
On/off button is \"stiff' to use. It doesn't \"glide\" on/off. Not a problem. Merely fyi.
Comes with batteries. That was a plus, because it saved me a few more $$.
The device is a bit \"loud\" in my opinion. You could not discreetly use this product.

This is the first deodorant I\u2019ve ever used that actually works.
I sweat heavily when I workout, but after trying this for a week I have noticed that the workout b.o. smell is nonexistent.
I was concerned that working out in my apartment would cause it to smell like a gym, but after switching to this deodorant my roommate can\u2019t even tell that I\u2019ve worked out!
The deodorant itself is just a bar with no holder. It glides on easily after a shower, but applies just fine otherwise, though it may take a few more application swipes if your body\u2019s not warmed up. A little goes a long way.
The smell is pleasant and doesn\u2019t bother my allergen sensitive nose at all. It\u2019s a mostly light lavender smell with a hint of vanilla (think spa/relaxing scents). The smell is not at all overpowering. I think you\u2019d have to apply globs of it for that to happen.
No need to reapply throughout the day, this stuff works the entire day!
I do suggest getting the Ethique square bar container to store the deodorant so it doesn\u2019t get wet or dusty. But a regular travel soap container would work too.
It\u2019s a small square, but when you think in terms of volume, I\u2019d say this is around the same size that you get in a traditional deodorant applicator, but unlike traditional deodorants, you don\u2019t need to apply as much of the Ethique deodorant for it to work so this will last longer.
I highly recommend this. Yes, it\u2019s a bit more expensive than other deodorants (even 3x more than some brands), but unlike other brands, this Ethique deodorant actually works.", "label": 1}

However, I was really surprised by the closeness of the cut, the quality of the materials, and just how quiet it is.
This trimmer has a nice wide head, which makes trimming a little faster than some of the narrower ones I have used in the past. It also has some heft to it. It is not heavy enough to be uncomfortable, but it definitely lets you know it is a well-made trimmer with a metal body. It only comes with a few combs, but I don't use the combs and they are pretty up-front about that... so I really can't take any stars away for that. The protective pieces and the included brush are nice, though. It took me longer than it should have to figure out where the clear protective piece goes. I probably looked pretty funny. FYI - it goes under the trimming head and protects the spinning mechanism. The included user manual is pretty minimal, so don't expect a lot of detailed info from it. But this is a trimmer... there isn't a lot you need to know.
Aside from the sparse user manual, this is a high-quality trimmer and I can't even believe the price for what you get. Definitely worth it. I would buy another one when needed, for sure, but I don't anticipate this one giving out for a very long time.

Unfortunately at the time of ordering this, the ingredient list was not available. Like many others, I assumed that it was pure coconut milk powder. It\u2019s not. This contains \u201cOrganic maltodextrin\u201d. Organic maltodextrin or not, it has maltodextrin. Like another reviewer, I was unable determine if the maltodextrin source is corn, tapioca, potato, or wheat.
Evidence has shown that maltodextrin can affect the balance of gut bacteria, which play an very important role in people's health. Maltodextrin has an even higher glycemic index than regular table sugar. Meaning that maltodextrin can cause a sharp increase/ spike in people's blood sugar shortly after they eat foods that contain it. This is not good for those with diabetes or someone who is doing the keto diet or sugar free diet.
HOWEVER, my fianc\u00e9 eating habits are much different than mine so he was happy to try it and stated that the taste was pretty good & he seams to enjoy it. For that, I\u2019ll give it 2 stars. He has been using it in his coffee successfully. He was unsuccessful with mixing it in cold water. It will clump if not mixed into hot water.

I was also traveling to see specialists and needed something that could fold up quickly and compactly to fit in either a car or on a plane. The Airgo Navigator can fold up just small enough to fit in the overhead compartment of airplane which means you never have to be separated from your own personal equipment. Fits easily in a trunk of a car as well.
Folding it does take some practice and having a couple of your own bungee cords or velcro straps is advisable to keep things *tight*. It's a bit like getting a tent back in its bag and for me required 3 or 4 tries to get it down pat; not especially difficult but I'd say it definitely requires practicing a few times to get it right so you can perform this action quickly if necessary.
Other features I like: you can add footrests and flip the backrest into position to have someone push you in \"wheelchair mode\".
You can adjust the seat and backrest to use as a rollator in \"walker mode\".
You always have a seat with you.
There is a basket to carry small items under the seat and/or store the footrests on board.
Last, but still of some importance for me is that the titanium color - looks great!
This model is built for getting around efficiently and compactly; it really is not meant for sitting in for long periods of time so if this is to be a primary wheelchair I would suggest looking into models that are made more for that purpose.
This was the best investment in compact versatile mobility I could have made. A sturdy, well constructed rollator+transport chair.

When I unpacked the boxes (which were identical), I quickly noticed that they came with two separate covers. One was a black cover with slippery beads on the bottom, and the other is gray with honeycomb grips. I initially reached out to Customer Service shortly after getting them, and they told me that \"yes, indeed the box is unmarked, and no I can not get another cover unless I purchase it.\"
I shrugged it off as poor customer service and decided to live with two mis-matched covers - not the worst thing in the world. I've owned them for about 8 months now, and the black cover has become more and more slippery. Several times people have slipped off the chair with it, and I've since banned my kids from using the one with the black cover.
But we paid $80 for each of these and the cushions themselves are very comfortable. So I decided I would reach out to sales and purchase the gray cover, which doesn't slip. After talking with sales, they're not even aware that there IS a second cover, and I could \"gamble\" and buy another black cover. What kind of customer service is that? Do they not even care if people get hurt? This company obviously cares little about safety and even less about customer satisfaction, so I won't be purchasing anything from them again.

To clarify, the metal does wrap around the four sides, so it is not just laying on top. But it does not go all the way down to the bottom of all sides; it covers about 80% of the height. Regardless it seems like the metal does provide extra safety and containment from any glass shatter risk. Also, the display is large and easy enough to read from above, and the size of the platform is more than large enough for me.

When we switched to water urinals I made the buttons turn off almost instantly, just enough to flush the urine away, and it's been completely trouble free so far.

Compared to the regular formula, this is three capsules instead of two capsules per serving. If you look quickly you may not notice this major difference and how it contributes to an obviously higher amount of each ingredient in the formula (925 mg vs 700 mg)
Further, this adds Omega-3 DHA and Zinc to the formula. I am not sure which of these factors led to it working better for me, but I would probably be safe to assume it was the overall serving size versus what I was seeing with the original formula.
All said, this had a decent impact on my focus the first couple of weeks of use. After a month, however, I wasn't able to notice anything compared to if I missed a day.

It is plastic so care has to be taken to not snap the plastic. Here is how to do it.
1) wet the waistband thoroughly, front and back, it should be fully wet throughout
2) attach device to button side of pants, do NOT over tighten, it does not have to be super tight
3) use the size adapters to get close to the waist size, you don't want to have to turn the green screw a long way
4) make sure the side opposite the screw is completely covered by the waistband, you want all the waistband to be stretched across the entire waistband
5) GENTLY tighten the green screw until all the slack is out of the waistband, hold for 20 seconds, the band will start to stretch
6) continue to use the screw to stretch the waistband GENTLY, if the screw is hard to turn, WAIT for 10 seconds.
7) if you have more than 8 turns on the screw threads showing, STOP and add an adapter rather than hyper extend the screw handle, yes you will have loosen what you have so far to use another short adapter
8) repeat to tighten, watch for a max of 8 turns and stop at your desired stretch point for the waistband
9) let the waistband dry completely! Leave the expander in until you want to use the pants. This will hold the stretch.

I did a YouTube video experiment (Phreakwar PC Custom Builds is also my YouTube channel name if you wanna search for the video). Search for \"Using a Lydsto breathalyzer to find my drinking limits\". I did an initial check, slammed down some seltzers every 10 minutes and took readings. I noticed a bit of fluctuation in readings .vs my alcohol consumption, so not quite sure on the accuracy of the product. Might have just been my body so I am not going to claim it was the device. But anyways, through my own pseudo-experimenting, I figured 4 is my limit, 6 or 7 drinks I am impaired 100%. I'm gonna call this a not so 100% accurate, but VERY RELIABLE if that makes sense.. device for judging yourself or other's impairment levels. While I don't feel the readings it takes are a true representation, I think one might be drunker than what the readings will show, I think that for what it DOES pick up, it can easily say right on the spot if you should not be driving. Would advise if you are using this to judge party guests, if it goes into the \"CAUTION\" zone, you advise that person, if they are to be driving, to STOP their consumption. You don't wanna really go PAST that caution zone and risk it, so I think this meter is PERFECT for letting one know when they have reached that point and I can honestly recommend it for that use.

Needless to say, cheap is cheap. I was hoping this would be one of those little trinkets people pick up for a buck or two, but we sold maybe 10 between the three different sets I bought (Teal, Pink and Purple). They are very flimsy and stick to your skin to the point it can be uncomfortable. Also, when I took them out of the package, they came with little stickers on them that stated they came from Oriental Trading Co. (you get a better deal on Amazon, as I checked, on Oriental it's $6.25 for a set of 24). But back to the point, I did not want to sell the bracelets with a little sticker on them, so I sat down and removed them from each bracelet (432). It took me upwards of 2 hours, and unfortunately, some of them were so badly damaged from removing the sticker, I couldn't sell them. Most of them left a stretch mark where it was sticking to the bracelet. Some came out fine because the stretch mark was inside where the band sits against your skin, but some of the stickers were sitting right across the lettering. Either way, I would say, look for something else to sell as a fundraiser (Pintrest has some great Relay ideas!).

It has three buttons on the side of the massager. One to turn it on, one to turn the power on and off, and one to change the direction of the kneading balls. The massager also has arm straps so you can apply the right amount of pressure on the massager when it is on your neck. At first, I didn't think I'd use it but it does help me get the best massage for my neck and also my shoulders.
The buttons are easily reachable so that no matter where you use the massager on your body, you can easily access them. It comes with a wall plug as well as a car plug so I can use it in the car, at home, or the office though I have to say that it wasn't that comfortable in the car if you are using it on your lower back.
It is amazing on your calves if you work out regularly. After my daily run, I gave this massager a try and it made my legs feel great. It's OK on your lower back, good on your neck and shoulders with enough pressure applied.
My only complaint is that the heat is not very strong. I could barely feel it when I had it turned on. Honestly, the only way I knew the heat was on was because the massager turned red. Without that indication, I would never know the heat was on.

One day I started researching how to combat elevated copper levels, zinc was the answer. But not all zinc supplements are created equal because some aren't readily absorbed in the body.

Thankfully this also arrived on time and I was able to use the cold one for my son and once they were all asleep, the hot one for me to relax.
---What I love----
-Time: They each kept heat/cold for a lot longer than my small towel
-Adjustable: It fit me and my 3 year old son. It has a long velcro in the back so it can go from very small to large.
-Quality: they seem of great quality. The velcro was strong and no loose ends or broke beads. Also, it comes in a cute box so it would be a nice gift.
---Suggestions---
-No instructions. I had to go back to the product page to read the instructions on how to heat the hot eye mask. I think this is super important since my first impulse was to put the cold one into the freezer but apparently they have on the description in bold letters to /NOT PUT IN THE FREEZER/. If there is anything I need to know on how to take care of the item in order for it to not be damaged, should be noted in the box or instructions.

I was so sad when my local library went digital, printing out receipts. It's not the same. But I saw this kit and I soared! As said in the previous review, these are simply the refills and the stamp pad and stamp need to be purchased as well (if desired).
BUT, if all you want are the refills, that's great, too! I use these in the front cover of each one of my books and I stamp the date I received the book. I love using them with my Penguin Classic Hardcover books. Those are beautiful and with these personal library cards, I am taken back to those sweet days when you would go to the library and find that perfect book to take home with you and the librarian would open the book and stamp that card and you would be forever engrained in the history of this book. Nostalgic, anyone?
There are 15 pockets and cards per pack and it is listed for two packs. So you get 30 refills for 10 bucks. Not bad in my opinion. Well worth it.
Conclusion: Well worth the buy; these colorful \"refills\" are the perfect replacement if you have run out of your beloved library cards to fill the books of your library with.

I figured that I already have cordless hair clippers, with a variety of hair guides. And, after using that to trim, shave body hair, could brush off hair debris and take a shower. But, having used this I can see the possible benefit of the combined features.
It creates less mess, with virtually no cleaning up (depending on the length and amount of hair that is handled). And, cleaning the device of suctioned hair is fairly simple and easy.
Maybe because I'm not very experienced, but i felt that I needed to use the top suction power level to handle the sparse chest hair that I shaved for the test. When I first started, with the lowest suction level, I wasn't sure if it was suctioning the hair. I didn't feel at ease until it was at full power.
I didn't feel that the device was very ergonomic, with the grip area far from the shaving action. I felt that I had much more control using my cordless hair clippers than this device. Attached are photos to show real world images of the product, with a ruler for size reference. Different angles are shown for a good overview of the device.
Overall, it does a credible job at cutting and suctioning hair bits. The blades perform well, cutting the body hair with ease. At the top speed, it did a competent job of suctioning. To be honest, I'm not totally convinced of the efficiency over my previous usage of cordless hair clippers. Based on initial impressions, it garners a 4 star rating.", "label": 1}

Previous to this, we used the usual name brand laundry detergents and either warm water for colors or hot water for whites. In time, colors faded, tee-shirts became shorter, towels were less absorbent, etc. This was all accepted as the result of aging fabrics. Woolite was only for hand washing delicates in cold water, right? We thought clothes just wouldn't get clean if we didn't use either hot or warm water washes.
I read an article about using cold water for laundering clothes that stated hot or warm water was not necessary. The article suggested Woolite for a laundry detergent and white vinegar for softening. Having used standard laundry detergents and fabric softener for over 40 years, this was a totally new concept for me, but I decided to try it.
As mentioned earlier, I have been using Woolite in cold water for all of our clothes and towels for over 3 years. What I have noticed is t-shirts I have bought since have not shrunk, faded, or become misshapen. Towels I bought over 2 years ago still look like new and are just as absorbent, if not more so. By using white vinegar as a softener, everything seems even softer than it did when I used fabric softer, and nothing holds wrinkles or creases.
In addition to all of the benefits mentioned, washing in cold water saves energy since the water does not to be heated, and vinegar is much less expensive than fabric softener. Personally, I would never go back to the old way of laundering clothes and towels.

The top edge of the open area in the middle is placed along the upper lash line to protect the lid from mascara smears and smudges and it works very well. I like to get my mascara deep into the root area to make the lashes look thicker, and this makes that easy. The top edge of the opening area goes under the lower lash line to protect the under eye area from mascara smudges and also works well. The two sides of the handle have serrations of differing sizes to comb lashes and brows - I might do a quick brow comb with it, but the teeth are too wide for me to want to use it to comb lashes.
I gave it four stars instead of five for several reasons. First, I waste a fair amount of mascara onto the applicator as I apply it to the upper lashes (I don't use mascara on my lower lashes so I can't speak to that); the plastic is easily cleaned however. Second, it takes practice to determine how best to hold it against the lid, as any pressure causes my eye to unfocus - kind of disconcerting in mid application. Third, it takes practice to figure out the blinking issue - I have worn makeup for decades and am practiced in holding my eyes open and unblinking, but there's something about having this pressed there that makes me want to blink and it is awkward, since the applicator is holding my lid firmly in place. I now lift pressure and blink, but it can be problematic in the middle of getting the mascara on. I've gotten better at it, but it's still a bit challenging.

I will admit, though they are not my style and I highly disagree with them being for both men and women, I did try them on. I can honestly say it felt like my eyes just relaxed instantly. Her mom tried them on for a minute, and she said that she could see better with them on than with her prescription glasses and her eyes relaxed.
So the true test came starting on Monday. She wore them all day and said except getting harassed for wearing sunglasses indoors, she liked them. Then on Tuesday.....she got a migraine. MAJOR ONE! She actually left work which she almost never does.
She said she continued to wear them (haven't gotten any of her co-workers or her boss's extensions yet to verify), and that they did help her deal with the pain she had with her migraine. She says they are comfortable and that they seem to work and a lot of people are interested in her experiences with them. So as time goes by she will continue to provide me feedback and I will try to update this.
I hope she continues to wear them, as I know I am looking forward to getting mine.

I have had the opportunity to review several other whitening kits recently and this one by far has given my wife the best results. She has completed six 20-minute sessions and already has had significant results. Her additional thoughts:
\u2022 Compared to whitening pens or other trays, these are much easier to use. You simply open the strips, place the larger strip on your top teeth and the smaller strip on your bottom teeth. Be sure to get all the way down to your gums and press the strip to adhere closely to your teeth. Then insert the light into the mouth tray and turn it on.
\u2022 The light has an automatic shut off at 10 minutes. Just turn it back on once or twice dependent on the time you want to continue whitening. I would not recommend nor does the instructions recommend any longer than a half hour.
\u2022 You do need to open the battery compartment to remove the paper between the two batteries to use it.
\u2022 The photos show her before pic along with after the first use and then after 6 uses. The pictures were taken in the same spot in the house at the same time of day without a flash.
\u2022 Because these are strips versus a gel, you do not have anything draining into your mouth while you are whitening. Once you turn off the light and remove the tray there is some saliva mixed with white foam. She did not gag as much as with the gels.
\u2022 It may be too early to tell but, at this point this product has not caused any additional sensitivity to her teeth.
\u2022 This kit is less expensive then many other less comparable whitening kits.

Quick Summary Points:
D-Aspartic acid is a natural compound that is synthesized within the human body
D-Aspartic acid has a distinct biological role separate from l-aspartic acid
There is evidence that D-Aspartic acid may be more effect for males over 40, who have naturally reduced testosterone levels relative to their youthful counterparts
The general recommended dose of D-Aspartic acid is 3g per day
D-Aspartic Acid - The Edge on Testosterone:
Testosterone is the single most important hormone responsible for the varying masculine characteristics expressed in humans. In bodybuilding, considerable focus is constantly directed to increasing testosterone levels to encourage muscle growth and achieve increased muscle mass and strength. In males, specialized Leydig cells produce testosterone. Androgen receptors expressed by satellite cells in muscle tissue and muscle nuclei allow testosterone to produce the much sought after anabolic effects.

The only problem is that since the openings accommodate 5ml, 10ml, or 15ml bottles, unless you're using the largest size, they have quite a bit of wiggle room. I would highly suggest the manufacturer consider making the edging that runs across the bottles out of elastic so that the bottles, especially smaller bottles, are better held in place, regardless of their size.

It does exactly as it claims. I've used St. Ives Apricot Scrub for years, and have also purchased Microdermabrasion Crystals, from Amazon.com Smile, to mix my own scrubs, however, wanted to try this.
The skin does roll off your body, and when using on your face, do not look for that same effect. I have only used it twice on my face, to space out the exfoliation and to let my skin heal, but, there is a definite difference.
One thing to note, is, if using on your face, scrub up and down and then sideways - do not rub in circles. Also, press firmly, but, not enough to break your skin. Your skin will get red, and you will feel like you have a sunburn, but, the aftereffects are so well worth it. My face is actually smoother and softer, after just using it twice. Do not use it everyday on your face, as it would be way too much exfoliation and your skin will never heal.
It truly does what it claims and in the end, is more cost effective, as scrubs, and professional treatments add up very quickly, and this is something that will last for at least 2 years. If you add it all up, you are getting a great deal here AND it actually does what it says.
One last thing, is that customer service/support is great and they will answer any questions you have and explain what to do, if you are experiencing any problems. That in itself shows they stand behind what they are selling and claiming this product can do - and it does.", "label": 1}

Had to get my hands on the new flavors! tried the sample pack and loved them. Great tasting with the same BUZZ!
Original Review:
I'm no stranger to caffeine as someone who has always taken pre-workouts and drank energy drinks. I have a pretty high tolerance to the stuff. I'm always on the lookout to try new products and came across this sample pack of NEU's three flavors and figured I'd give it a whirl.
The three shots arrived quickly to my door and I waited for the right moment to try the first one. All the flavors were good, but I personally liked the original tropical punch the best (green). I took the first shot before a night out and it worked great! The stuff is smooth and I felt a lift in my mood about 15 mins after taking it. It's nice because the 2oz shot doesn't leave you full of liquid, just crazy good energy. I felt great all night and had zero crash which was exactly what I was looking for.
I find that the 300mg of caffeine is the sweet spot for me. It's enough to get me going and not too much where I feel too jittery. This product hits that sweet spot perfectly. It also has other ingredients like B12 and Choline for an additional brain boost. Overall the formula is strong, the product looks amazing and the flavors are great.
I would highly recommend trying these out for your next night out on the town, study session, or in the office as a pick me up.", "label": 1}

I can't imagine they did, because they would have caught this glaring flaw: While clipped horizontally to a waistband or belt, the clip is situated in the case so that the wearer must read/interact with the screen upside-down. WHAT?!?!?! Why would the designer think it was important for the people looking AT you to be able to read the screen right-side-up? The wearer is the important one here, not her/his audience. (And, no, there is no way to flip the clip around to the other side - it is either vertical or horizontal one-way only.) Since the integration with the Dexcom G5 just rolled out, I look at my pump frequently, as it now displays my CGM graph. Having an upside-down screen is even MORE annoying now that I rely on those quick glances to see how I'm doing.
Also, the clip needs teeth or something to actually hold it in place. My pump slips off of my waistband several times per day (and while sleeping), no matter what type of material my pants are made of. I have had too many slip-offs, with the only thing holding my pump to my body being the tubing to my infusion set (ummm... OUCH). I still keep the case on for its protection, but usually end up slipping the whole thing into my pocket because it's just so annoyingly-designed.
The only thing I like about it is the color. But, that's it.
I can't wait until I have more options for a case.", "label": 0}

Since I am not finding out the gender, this baby book is especially appreciated for its gender-neutral appearance in pale cream, soft peach, and green. The soft pastel colours are suitable for a boy or girl, and an excellent showcase for the timeless art of Beatrix Potter.
Thick, sturdy covers promise to stand up to plenty of handling, essential since this book will be revisited several times once the baby comes. The solid pages are different from flimsier, thinner paper found in other baby books. A ballpoint pen works just as well as gel or ink, and none of the ink saturates through the heavier grain. Attaching photographs or keepsakes is much easier with this strong backing.
The memory book separates into pregnancy and post-partum sections. Areas allow details about parents, family tree, and the infant to be recorded. Some purchasers may be put off for the lack of room for all medical information or prenatal visits, but I didn't find this to be a problem. I attached an additional sleeve for the various sonograph photos I received during my pregnancy, as they far exceeded the space provided. I think additional blank pages can be purchased and inserted, though I haven't done so.
The interior artwork is an assortment of Peter Rabbit and other iconic Potter characters, like Jemima Puddleduck and Mrs. Tiggywinkle. Crisp colours and bright illustrations will endure through the years, and make a very sweet counterpoint to the well laid out contents. Achievements, travel and other accomplishments for the first year are spread out across the book. It's easy to document baby's firsts in an attractive format.
I recommend this book to any parent. It makes a fine gift, too!", "label": 1}

It\u2019s very simple to operate (instructions were poorly worded, but you really don\u2019t need them). For the lowest heat setting, you click the button once, for medium click twice, and for high click three times. The button has an LED indicator, so you know which setting you\u2019re on. You let the product heat up until the black silicone strip on the curler turns white, then curl lashes for several seconds. It worked really well, but I will say on the low setting I felt a bit of heat coming off. Not painful or anything, just made me nervous. The curler is clunky, so it was difficult for me to get all my eyelashes into the curler on the first try - especially given that I was nervous to put anything warm up to my eyeball LOL. I got a good curl using it twice per eye. I curled the center lashes, then angled it to curl those outer corner lashes. I will say, once I must have squeezed too hard and the curler clamp slipped\u2026so that didn\u2019t make me feel good, which is why I took off one star. I wish the handle was more sturdy\u2026the plastic feels a little cheap, which makes me nervous when you\u2019re putting heat near your eye! I think with a little more practice, however, this will work out well. It really made a huge difference in my lashes\u2026I didn\u2019t even really need to use mascara for the length!

I have found foot creams to be annoying to apply as they take forever to saturate, and leave my feet a little greasy for my liking. I saw these sock like thingies and had to try them. First I think that these work best of you use a foot scrubber first to remove some dead skin, and then proceed to wear them while you sleep. Let me also say that I hate wearing socks to bed, but do not mind these in the least as they are open toed, and allow my feet to remain cool. The interior is also a little cooling, as there is some kind of gel or cream like insert to do the moisturizing. I wish I had taken a before picture, that is my bad, but believe me when I say that my feet were much much drier when I first started to wear them. I have worn them for about a week every night, and I am always impressed with how smooth my feet feel in the morning. It really does work, and is a much better idea and alternative to foot creams. You simply slip them on, and go to sleep. What could be easier than that. If you scrub dead skin off of your heels before using them, they will work even better to maintain and improve the hydration of your heels. I know that worked for me, and I am very pleased with the results.", "label": 1}

Also, the combination of the B complex is rather weird. Some Bs are at 100 times daily requirements (for B12), some others at just 1.5 times daily requirements (Niacin). That is actually common among multivitamins. And, when you compare them their relative dosage for the Bs are completely different. There is no convergence among brands. It is kind of a random function.
Along the same lines, some minerals that are pretty important for nerve functions and electrolyte balance are extremely underpowered including Calcium, Potassium and Magnesium all coming at 3% or less of daily requirements. Why bother. You are practically not ingesting any of those three key minerals to make any impact on your health. I gather it is enough for this multi to put those three key minerals within the ingredients. Don't be fooled, they may as well be at 0% of daily requirements, it would not make any difference.
In view of the above, well I would keep your Netflix subscription. It is a far better value. I would probably recommend a very basic multi that has just 100% of daily requirements of the basic vitamins. And, if you feel you do need Calcium, Magnesium, or Potassium, well spend the money on earmarked dedicated supplement for each. You will get far more (at times a 100 x more) of what you really need. You may spend a bit more money at the end. But, you will get an intake of minerals micronutrients that could make a material difference to your health.", "label": 0}

This one isn't! Even though I got it at a discount in exchange for a fair, unbiased, honest review, I am amazed by this! I have never had a foot massage like this. It has a bunch of functions. Air pressure makes the massage harder or milder (start out low) and there is also a function that gives you the option of high and low levels of heat. There is also a kneading massage and a shiatsu massage as well as an air pressure massage. And yes, there is a major difference with the shiatsu massage hitting all sorts of areas between and around the areas that the kneading massage hits. There is a timer and an auto function that cycles through other functions, but that does not seem to include the shiatsu massage. This is really, really pink. It is also very high tech with glowing lights at the front. The first thing I actually noted was how heavy it is. The handle in the top of the box is really helpful! The drawing says the covers in the foot areas are detachable, but I didn't see how to detach them, so suggestions would be welcome...I don't want to wreck my new toy!

Because he is breastfed only, the pediatrician recommended a vitamin D supplement. I had been giving him the Enfamil D-Vi-Sol liquid, which has artificial color and flavor, and requires a full mL for the daily dose. Although not an issue with my baby boy, trying to get some babies - including my daughter when she was little - to take down a whole mL of a vitamin is very messy and nearly impossible. This Liddle Ones supplement has none of the artificial stuff and only requires one drop. As promised in the product description, my baby takes this vitamin incredibly easily and doesn't even seem to notice that he is taking anything.
The value of this product is outstanding, considering that if only one drop is used per day, the bottle will last for years. One bottle of D-Vi-Sol lasts for a month if one dose is given per day.
The major drawback to this Liddle Ones vitamin D supplement is the dropper. It is not well made and makes it very difficult to control the dose. The dropper does not consistently release one drop at a time, so you don't know exactly how much your baby is getting if you drop it right into the mouth. Just two drops gives twice the recommended daily dose. You can try adding it to milk in a bottle, but if the baby doesn't finish the bottle, they might not get the full dose. Putting in on the nipple before baby feeds is an option, but I'd prefer to be able to just measure one drop into his mouth.

I bought this on recommendation of my doctor for some severe pelvic instability issues that was causing pain with walking and stairs. With that being said, I think that you should consider what you're buying this for and what you're hoping to accomplish before you judge the cons of this product.
CONS:
It makes me look even fatter - because of all the bulges it creates under my clothing. This is due to my being out of shape and overweight though, as no amount of support could be given if it were loose enough NOT to create bulges.
Its not east to put on, and requires a bit of adjustment after moving around a lot.
Its bright white! Easy to see under dark clothing.
The straps that cross in the front are visible at the neck line of all but turtle neck tops - and I have not found a way to pin them out of the way without it pulling on the item and my under clothing in a worse way (the cross of the straps is at the center of my chest).
PROS:
The pressure is relieved. Not 100%, but relieved enough to make the inconveniences worth it. I don't believe this is for someone who is experiencing manageable pain. This is for someone who is at their wits end and realizes they have months to go and they are willing to look a bit unflattering for some pain relief.", "label": 1}

Either they are too loose, or too tight and cause pain when walking either way. When I got these a week ago I actually got a bit upset. It was super hard to get them on at first, I had ordered the XL ones and yet they took a lot of effort to get them on. I was afraid that they were not going to fit and be too tight, causing pain. But, after a few minutes of having them on, they were actually very comfortable. I wore them all day and didn\u2019t have one bit of discomfort, actually they made my feet/ankles feel amazing, even after taking them off.
These are made of a strong, reinforced fabric to help reduce pain and swelling. They don\u2019t cover your toes, which for me is a plus, because I hate my toes being cramped in normal compression socks. Super easy to clean, just hand wash with a little bit of soap and let them air dry. I am definitely happy I bought these, and plan on buying an extra pair or two in the future for when my other pair(s) are drying from washing.

My son is 5 yrs 9 months with primary enuresis. The first night he was up three times, which shocked me. I thought he was only peeing justh before wake up. Over the course of the week, it went to twice a night, then once a night. After exactly a week, I woke up at normal time and he had not been up yet. I wasnt sure if the battery pooped out or if he made it. When he woke up he was beaming... "Mom, I held it all night!"
I'm writing this the morning of the second quiet night. He is still asleep, but has not been up. I expect he is dry again. I told him after he is dry for three weeks he won't have to wear it anymore. In retrospect, i see that night time urination had become a habit for him. I guess some kids don't develop the cues to stop doing it. Whatever..... It worked! I couldnt be happiier for him and his little heart and for my washing machine.
The product itself is very simple. The alarm goes off when the cirucuit is completed via the wetness of the fabric it is attached to. I paid full price for this item and I would do it again. You do not need the expensive alarms. They all work under the same premise.

The bottle is 7-1/4 inches tall, with a circumference of 5-5/8\" - easy for me to hold (I have small size hands).
The bottle delivers a fine mist spray as I press the spray pump, with a moderate chlorine smell.
This bottle works best when held upright. When I held this upside down to spray into my shoes, it did not deliver much spray.
I have very comfortable, but old, shoes and gloves that I love to wear while out gardening; these items are well-worn, and do not smell good.
I took out the insoles of those shoes, then sprayed inside of the shoes, and on the insoles.
I sprayed inside the gloves.
We sprayed the kids' shoes and their backpacks.
We left them outside the house to air out.
The gloves did not have the smell they used to have.
The kids' shoes did not smell as bad as before.
My shoes still smelled a bit; although the odor was not as potent as before. The smell that remained came from deep inside the shoe, at the toe area, where the spray did not get into. With what I had left in the bottle, I removed the cap and poured the liquid down into that area. After leaving the shoes outside for a couple more days, the smell was was still present, but I am fine with the improvement.
The product got used up quickly.
Overall, this product does work in greatly reducing the heavy odors in my shoes.

This knee support provides a nice amount of soft tissue support for a knee that might benefit from it. The material is 95% nylon and 5% spandex. This does not feel like a pure neoprene brace as so many others are - the material is softer and I can find no hotspots on it from seams or velcro. This is a real plus!
I have worn heavy knee braces in my life for an ACL/PCL tear. This is not THAT kind of brace and is not meant to support a knee that has more orthopedic issues like torn ligaments. This does provide nice support for an aching knee due to some arthritis or muscle strains ... or just for a bit of extra support for a knee that has a bit of lateral shift.
I like the simplicity and feel of this brace. The feel is soft and does not have a stiff neoprene feel. It uses 3 straps with easy instructions: line up the brace with the kneecap, secure the middle strap first, and then the top and bottom straps.
Goes on easily, supports without a lot of slippage (although this may depend on actual fit and actual strap placement - practice makes perfect). For me, the brace stayed in place for several hours while doing some walking and sitting without much slipping. There are no metal side braces, this is a straight up knee support.
For what it is - a support - it's 5 stars.

TIPS: (Things I\u2019ve noticed)
- For dehairing single articles of clothing, put a wet towel in the load to keep the cycle going.
-call your mother and brag about the thing you just bought. Have the conversation. Do it. You\u2019ll learn something.
-try and stick the hemispheres apart onto the walls of the dryer before you put the load in. I\u2019ve found they work better when they\u2019re not rolling amongst the clothing
- you\u2019re better off to put wet clothing in, rather than dry
-do your taxes
- don\u2019t use dryer sheets or anything with these. Do this first, then do the dryer sheets when all the hair is out
-brush your dog
-Don\u2019t stick them together to form as sphere, you\u2019ll only make obnoxious noise and it\u2019s less effective as well
-vacuum the carpet
-interrupts the load drying by desiring the spheres a couple of times if you have particularly hairy clothing
-watch the YouTube video about how to do your laundry properly, and how to sort it out
-check on the laundry again because you need to take the fuzz out of the fuzz hole and the hair of the hair catcher
-drink tea
-snooze
-put your clean clothes away", "label": 1}

Wrong. These earplugs will muffle low sounds - like the TV in the other room. I can still hear it. Traffic passing on the road, I can hear that. The dog barking, I can hear that.

Rosewater has many good properties. Its a good facial cleanser, and can be used to remove makeup. (I used cotton balls). If you have hard to remove makeup, add a drop or two of coconut oil. I have not used other rosewaters as yet, but have smelled them. Some seem cloying to me. The Ciganic has a light, floral scent. (Well, it is roses, after all!). This is very concentrated but you can add some to a bath. I put a few squirts into a bath and was surprised at how rich smelling the room became - the warm water really released its essence.
I really like the fact that its alchohol and chemical free, and being organic is another plus. It does a good job removing oils from the skin.

4. If the ear elastics have a tiny bit of give / or are a bit loose, this can make them perfect.
5. Silicone is comfortable on face
6. Can be cleaned and disinfected after use.
7. Washable / reusable
8. Since they don't HAVE to go inside. Pretty much a universal compatibility.
CONS
1. IF a mask already fits snug = this may make it TOO snug.
2. If adding inside a mask, may let that inside flap - flap against the face more than usual.

Device used to be quite, but noise started coming from the motor after about 30 min of light use.
The HR monitor always reads 99 lol. It's a joke and Idk why anybody would want this feature. Useless tech.
Not sure what the temperature gauge is for either or what it measures. Not skin temp lol. Also it jumps up and dowm from 80 to 100 randomly when it's not even working. Doesn't make sense.
no reason for there to be a calorie counter on this machine and it doesn't work either (big surprise). The number just goes up with with time while the motor is running.
These are all useless gimmicks that don't work and are used as marketing tactics to increase the selling price of the machine.
Btw, this device appears to be functioning as intended, the functionality is just trash.
Doesn't last 7 hrs.
The stroke length is much less than 15 mm. Closer to 8 mm. Half the length. What liars.
The stall force is not bad, but definitely not 70 lbs, and the machine does not like being stopped and gets MUCH louder after being stopped.

On screen, this one looked perfect--and indeed, it was very maneuverable. Not too hard to put together EXCEPT that the length of the seatback bar did not match the width of the walker and could not be inserted. I contacted the seller, who replied in one day that he'd get the maker right on it. That was nearly a month ago; I haven't heard a word since. Strike 1.
Then my friend tried it out. And we learned a lot about walkers. First, the wheels on this one, as on the simple frame walkers with no seat, were fixed in position, they didn't swivel. This means when you want to turn, or even slightly repoint the walker, you have to pick it up, turn it, and set it down. Very tiring, and hell on carpeting. Strike 2.
And the brakes ... there aren't any. It's designed so that when you sit on it, the posts of the back legs (the ones that are forward when you're sitting) hit the ground and keep the unit from moving. Unfortunately, when you simply lean on the walker a bit as you walk (as my friend, fresh from back surgery, had to) the posts engage the surface (floor, pavement) and voila, you're stuck! Strike 3, and you're out!
Bottom line: Well-made but poorly designed. Don't buy this.", "label": 0}

Obviously the light, lens quality image and view size against DermLite DL 100 is indescribably better on the DL3. While the DermLite II Pro and Hybrid gives an almost perfect illumination and image quality in my point of view the DL3 (normal and N) gave an even better resolution and light over the other two. If have to put them on a light/image quality rank that would be:
1) DL3, 2) II Pro 3) Hybrid M.
If you want to do both contact-Non-polarized-light-dermoscopy and non-contact polarized light dermoscopy there is no room for hesitation and the DL3 is your best option (the difference with light and quality of the Hybrid is significant so you would be wasting money instead of saving a $300)
However if do not intend to do both types of dermoscopy I rather recomend the Dermlite II-Pro because of its brighter led's.
And finally, I needed 2 dermoscopes so I took a risk to buy both the DL3 and DL3N, however until now I guess I just trow out $200 with the DL3N as the pigment boost have no really use (at least not found by me or any of my colleges or attendance professors), also there's not evidence published in pubmed or embase to support its use.

I read all the reviews and knew to expect results and wait about 1 month. It has been 1 month and my 12 year old son reports no changes but I have observed some changes. Although I will say he was expecting the effects to be like his 20-30 ml. regular pill, he has improved his focus on his assignments and made them a priority at home! I can compare the two because my son did have a few months of NOT being on Synaptol or regular ADHD meds during the school year and he was distracted, unfocused and did sloppy homework. The teachers in his middle school were not happy with him. Now, however, he has at least earned his way back to being an accomplished student (meaning he completes everything on time!) and has raised his grades. I believe the effects are subtle enough that even he did not realize he is focusing a lot better than before. Synaptol is in no way like regular ADHD pills. There is no appetite suppression nor changes in personality. It is not that strong. However, it is a safe way to test on your child because the recommended dosage is 1 ml. twice a day. It is clear with no taste.
I plan to keep him on Synaptol through the summer. I combined this with Omega Fish Oil in liquid Form. My son likes that both Synaptol and the Fish Oil (google Barlean's or others that come flavored) are in liquid form. He hates pills.", "label": 1}

I have done 'open colonics' before and the principal is very similar.
This is very effective in relieving gas and moving waste through. I am told that because you are lying flat, you will not strain or inflame any hemorrhoids using a colema board. Furthermore, your muscles still have to work, so this will not become addictive.
There are a few things to know about this...
1. the biggest danger in using a colema board is damaging yourself with improper insertion. I put a piece of tape (duct) on the speculum at about 2.3-3 inches to make sure it never goes in further than that. I use castor oil to lube it too.
2. I keep a roll of paper towels, rubber gloves, a gallon bottle of water and bleach spray for clean ups afterwards.
3. I think the tank is far too heavy to lift when full, so I use the same gallon bottle to fill the tank one gallon at a time.
I am really happy with this purchase.

For years I would have to leave the room if someone was eating or chewing gum, it would just drive me absolutely nuts!

Its ready to drink right from the box and even comes with the straw. (Tetra Brik Pak just means the classic juice box shape you are all used to)
Kids will barely, if at all, notice the difference between this cherry flavor and a regular juice box. I tasted both cherry and the fruit punch flavor, and they are both similar.

The containers are just the right amount of fluid, in my opinion. They are all ready to go - no mixing or reconstituting required, and although no refrigeration is necessary, it certainly tastes better if you do.
This product says pack of 16, and you should be aware that this means 16 of the individual juice boxes total, which means 4 packages with 4 juice boxes in each package.

At my doula's continued suggestion, I purchased this maternity harness earlier this week, and I wish I had done it sooner. It isn't perfect, but it definitely alleviates the back pain. It does nothing for the hip or round lagament pain, but I didn't expect that.
The things I don't like about this product are:
- It is difficult to conceal under shirts because of the neckline.
- The straps are difficult to adjust while it is being worn.
- I wish the belly portion had more adjustability--they only give 3 options to fit it under the belly. I find that I need a set of hooks in between the smallest and medium setting. Had I purchased this sooner, I would have likely taking it to a seamstress to have a couple more hook rows added.
- They don't include instructions for putting the item on.

1. The taste. It tastes like lemon peel and stevia mixed together, with a faint chemical/vitamin flavor. I hork it down and shudder a little, and I think the reason some people love it and some hate it is the stevia - if you don't mind the flavor of stevia, you will probably love it.
2. The packaging. When I unscrew the lid, a little powder spills out on the counter. It is bright yellow and stains my towel when I wipe it up. I started using a dark towel so it's all good now, but with the hefty price tag I can't help but consider licking it off the counter. Also, I used to go digging in the powder for the scoop which would stain my fingers yellow but I've finally learned to leave the scoop outside the canister between uses. The individual foil packs would eliminate this problem.
3. (Not really a demerit but a weird observation) Within 5 minutes, my lips and tongue burn a little. That improves after about 15 minutes, but about 20 minutes after consuming, my hands get a weird pins and needles sensation. This doesn't really matter to me or affect my workout.

It comes in 2 bags one if a plastic bag to contain the mess that it could become and another to store it in to preserve it as much as possible away from the light and elements. I have never had unrefined shea butter I'm not sure if this was what I expected lol but I wanted to try making some DIY things that required shea butter. I love that its organic and pure, this way I know exactly what I'm working with. It is harder then I expected not so hard that you can't beat it into a soft creamy submission. Cutting it is pretty easy I just scoop it out with a spoon or knife. If you are measuring it its a little hard to do so. I suggest you either make it soft them measure it out or measure it by weight.
The smell is pretty intense no bad intense just strong. I was able to get rid of it though by adding essential oils and other thing in my DIY adventures. Once its all mixed up the smell isn't noticeable. I used this to make Dragons blood butter which was a lot of fun as well as a stretch mark cream for one of my pregnant friends. Next I want to try a whipped butter. It is very thick and heavy on the skin if you major ingredient is the Shea butter. However it leaves your skin feeling so moisturized and hydrated. After using my DIY products my skin feels so smooth and looks way better. I will have a lot of fun using this in my DIY projects, I feel its a very good quality sea butter

Do not let the price or the negative reveiws turn you away from this great bargain! The switch is solid, the ignition is very VERY reliable, the jets of flame are very quick to light (careful not to burn yourself though, it's easy with this bad boy!), the flame adjustment is very straight forward (I keep mine of full out), the lid has a mirror (which is cool since it allows you to see the burn from the other side), and while it can't really stand on its bottom it can lay securely on its side due to its flat \"nuts and bolts\" type surfaces (which is nice in the car or on the boat).
As to the complaints that it does not hold enough fuel or that it burns quickly through its fuel resevoir or both, I contend that no matter what setting you have this lighter's torches on -> if you hold the jets on your cigar for longer than neeeded you will use too much fuel. With three jets you only need a fraction of the time other torches need, trust me for I had to learn that lesson too and since having learned that I rarely have to refill this bad boy!
Complaints have been made that this is \"only\" a torch lighter and that they sacrificed having a cigar punch, cigar cutter or something else. Listen, this is a torch lighter not a swiss army knife that replaces all of your cigar contraband. If you want a cutter to buy an Xikar, if you want a punch go get one but don't complain that a great torch lighter is nothing more than a lighter!
Long story short: buy this and buy this now for it will be the last torch lighter that you need and will fufill every lighting need you will ever encounter. oh and buy it from amazon since the shipping is free (for now) and cheaper than on the seller's own website!", "label": 1}

NAC is one of the best and cheaper way to boost glutathione as taking glutathione does not work when taken orally since it is too big to absorb through intestine wall. Other than trying to boost your antioxidants level in various parts of the body individually, boosting glutathione is simply easier and better as it can easily cross to various parts of the body and recharges other antioxidants as compared to antioxidants that can only work in specific area. Glutathione also support and boost your immune system, protects our cells from damage from environmental toxic and eliminate carcinogens. Our glutathione declines naturally as we age so the importance of taking NAC gets more important as well. This product comes with the most bioavailable selenium and molybdenum as well.

Overall, it works and does the job. It comes with multiple attachments, including one for nose/ear hair, one for eyebrows, and one for general shaving. It also includes a cleaning brush and a cover. A USB cable is included for charging, but no charger. As is becoming fairly typical these days, you will need to provide your own. Personally, I would have preferred it came with one. When it came, it had at least some charge, but I charged it for about 2 hours before using.
For ear hair, it works nicely. For nose hair, it works, but it feels a little odd. According to the instructions and the notes from the manufacturer, you are supposed to use using a bit of a rotating motion while using it. This seems to work, but has a bit of tendency to catch and pull longer/thicker hairs rather than just immediately cutting them (which is a bit uncomfortable). Sharper blades might help on this. The eyebrow trimmer also works well, although you may want to go gently and be VERY careful of the angle at which you hold it until you get a good feel for how it works...otherwise you may end up trimming a bit more than you intended! The general shaving attachment I have not tried. I looks like it would work for simple touchups to whiskers and such, but is not really intended for giving you a full shave.

So the search for the ideal pill dispenser has been an on-going effort for me.
I like the pill cutter. You're fully protected from the cutter by the plastic design. It cuts pills easily. And it's safely separate from the pill dispensers. If I'm placing too much focus on this, it's because I managed to cut my hand opening an odd-size pill dispenser - odd size because it had the pill cutter inside. I like this one - it's safer.
The two pill dispensers come in two different shades - so you can do the morning in one, evening in another, or prescription in one, vitamins in another, or use just one - but you can tell the dispensers apart, which is a nice benefit. Each pill container closes with a satisfying, and secure, snap.
Each dispenser has seven labelled days, and holds a large number of pills - and not all dispensers achieve these basics, so I view this as a huge plus.
You can't, however, load all pill containers at once. That pretty daisy design makes the lids crash into each other, so you can't have them all open at the same time. If you've got more than two medications to drop into each day of the week, the process of working around the lids is pretty tedious. You can remove all the lids, but replacing them requires pressure, which can cause pills to jump days - which, if you have a lot of meds, is hard to spot. The design there could have been better.
Nice size, nice colors - hard to lose in your luggage - but loading them up every week seems a little daunting.", "label": 1}

It has all of the standard accuracy of other scales I've tried with the same weight and body fat capabilities, with little-to-no fluctuation of weight if I step off the scale and measure again five minutes later.
It is beautiful, and it cleans easily. It is heavier than it looks, and it feels like it will last a long time.
WiFi setup was very easy, and all of the data has been available on the Fitbit site immediately.
For users with very different weights, the user recognition is excellent. However, my husband and I are about 6 lbs apart, and it gets us mixed up (easily fixed from the dashboard for recording purposes). It would be nice if it could take a little more into account in determining the user. For example, if we weigh at the same time each day, chances are good that we each match with the one that we were closest to the day before, not the one 5+ lbs different. Additionally, our body fat percentages are very different, so I don't think it is using that to help determine user.
That being said, our daughter and my best friend are about 100 lbs lighter/heavier than we are, and it recognizes them with no trouble, so this shouldn't be an issue in households with more varied weight. I will update again as to whether users are still confused around 10 lbs of weight difference.

My wife has a condition with her heel that can flare up from time to time and cause significant pain for weeks on end. When this happens, she really benefits from gel heel inserts to allow her to go about her business and still recover.
WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT THESE INSERTS:
* The deep cup with the gel coming up around the back of the heal for about 1/2 inch of back heel protection is really nice. Some others just provide the gel on the bottom of the heal. This one stabilizes the heal a bit with the cup and also provides some protection on the back and sides.
* A wave pattern on the inside where your heal rests provides extra grip and slip-resistance
* Around 1/4 inch of bottom silicone gel is about right to provide the protection and comfort she needs without creating excessive instability or raising the heel too much.
* The gel is sticky and stays in place in the shoe without need for adhesive (allowing you to easily move them from one pair of shoes to another)
AREA FOR IMPROVEMENT:
* We struggled a bit to pick the right size since there was not real guidance on how S, M, L matched to shoe sizes. There were dimensions on width, but that doesn't help most people. In the end, we got the M and it worked well for her size 8 feet. Would appreciate some extra guidance on the product page on sizing (referencing men and women shoe size ranges)
These are a bit more expensive than other options we have used -- but in our case, it is certainly worth it to get the extra features mentioned above. Particularly given how useful these are when my wife has a flare up.

The exfoliation is top notch, better than the exfoliating mitt I have, and this gives me as close of a shave as a razor does. I'm not sure if it will be as effective on softer areas, i.e. bikini line or stomach hair, for example, but if you do attempt it, be sure to hold the skin taught to get the most friction possible, as that's really how this works.

It comes in a nice retail box that would be gift friendly. The actual foot massager looks to be a quality machine. The power cord is relatively short, around 5.5 feet, so you have to be in very close proximity to a power outlet to use. The cord will have to route around furniture you have on the floor which makes the cord feel shorter than it is. As far as the actual settings, it has 2 speeds (slow, fast), you can turn heat on or off, and you can increase the air pressure. I have to be honest, I am not a fan.
- I feel nothing on the arches of my feet.
- The air pressure, even on the highest setting, feels like it isn't enough.
- I can't feel any heat.
- The little nubby massage things under the ball and heel of my foot don't feel good. I embrace massage where it may be painful but you gain something from it. This just doesn't feel right. The nubby things are rock hard plastic. I wouldn't say it hurts, but it is not pleasant, and I don't think I am getting anything out of using it. I feel like if they had a little give to them, if they were firm but slightly squishy, and the air pressure was higher it would be a million times better.
I have sat and used it for 20 minutes on a few occasions and it's not BAD, I just don't care much for it. Feels like it could be so much better with a few tweaks.

That research prompted me to purchase this extract. Another thing that prompted me to try it was a mole like growth that popped up on my face about a year ago. It seemed to be getting bigger and my general sense of paranoia concerning cancer got me to thinking if the Chaga Extract would have any effect.
I think that I can say unequivocally that since I started taking the extract, the mole has almost disappeared. It started out about the size of a pencil eraser and is now just two small lumpy dots. That happened in just over a week. I wish that I had taken some before and afters because the result seems to dramatic.
I was pretty amazed. Everything that I can find about betulinic acid indicates that it is low in toxicity and works about as well as doxorubicin, especially in cancers that have a certain gene that confers resistance to doxorubicin. Doxorubicin is some pretty nasty stuff that is nicknamed red devil and red death because of it's high toxicity. It can permanently damage heart muscle. Based on what I read about the toxicity of betulinic acid, I have been taking 2 tsps per day at night. That's about 16 times the dosage on the bottle.

I can actually type with these (if a little clumsily), and clean a toilet with them without getting a leak.
This set lets you try a pair with a cotton lining (flocking) and a pair without. I prefer the lining, makes it easier to get the gloves on and off, absorbs a little sweat, and may strengthen the glove. The lining can be harder to clean, though, so some prefer the unlined for repeated use or for use with nasty substances that have to be completely washed out for reuse.
The solid color is the lined pair, the bicolored unlined. Besides that difference, the bicolored seem thinner (maybe because of the lack of lining) except at the darker-colored parts, which are beefed up to at least match the solids.
They both grip fairly well, not quite as well as bare hands for some things, slightly better than some of the similar gloves I've tried out.
I usually wear medium, and these mediums fit well, snugly. My palm is towards the large end of the large size according to the size chart in one of the Amazon photos (3.5\"), but the medium is actually a little larger than some very similar mediums I've got from other brands.
I've noticed that this kind of glove, with the right and left fit, tends to be tight between the thumb and palm when the thumb is stretched out, but that hasn't interfered with their practical use. They may wear out faster there.

There are a few drawbacks however: difficulties with sliding onto low, medium-thickness carpet, not being able to climb into a room elevated off the flat hardwood and what seems to be the bot's complete inability to find the docking station when told to dock in the app. All in all, it works like a dream on hardwood and makes me feel grossed out by all the dirt, hair, etc., in the dirt cup because it's so effective (duh, Hoover!). The dirt cup itself, however, is easy to find and empty, but seems to spill every single time I take the top off which is a minor drawback. A great little bot which can get into low dirty places like under beds, tables and couches and makes the floor honestly feel cleaner after it's done doing a cycle.

The buttons are on the inside of the brush, instead of on the side which was a huge plus since some other straighteners have it on the side I am constantly hitting them. You can set your setting all the way up to 450 degrees if you pleased, I tend to keep mine at around 410. Another huge difference that I've noticed with RoseMyst is that the heated bristles are flat, and the tips do not have a large round ends which is where my hair would get caught and pulled when using and that was horrible. My hair is thick, wavy and an overall pain to straighten so with this straightening brush it has cut my time down to about 20 minutes, with a baby around that's a miracle.

I had several squeaks in my master bedroom, hallway, and a 2nd bedroom. The stud finder did not work for me at all. Anywhere I drilled it would not slide up and down so it felt like I always hit a stud. Im sure it works but for some reason it was not doing it for me. To find the studs I pulled the carpet back in the corners and found where the nails were hammered in. This shows where the studs are. I marked the nail holes with tape in a few different spots on top of the carpet, and then measured from there where the rest would be. This worked like a charm for me.
This method got rid of every squeak in my master bedroom except for one and for some reason it squeaks on the sub floor between two joists. When I replace the carpet this year I will look into it. It got out 100% of the squeaks in my 2nd bedroom, and 100% of them in my hall way. In the closet of my master bedroom it would squeak if you stepped anywhere withing a 24\" square. I put one screw in the stud and it took care of the whole thing. That was awesome.

When the device is behind you and the start button is tiny and the exact same shape as multiple other buttons on the device it\u2019s very difficult to turn on again even for a normal healthy person without back pain and other mobility issues. For a 75 year old in chronic pain it\u2019s impossible.
If you have any pain or mobility problems you typically have to pull it out again from behind your back to restart then reposition behind you. This totally defeats the relaxation and pain relief properties you\u2019re hoping this device will offer. 15 minutes is just not long enough for someone with real pain issues to find relief from.
This needs a remote control so that someone with such issues can easily use this otherwise it\u2019s nice for someone who is healthy and just needs some relaxation etc but if you\u2019re thinking about this for yourself or anyone who has real pain and mobility problems I would hard pass until some kind of remote control is added.

\u2022 Contents and Size: This is an 18-pack box, which contains six 3-packs inside.

In reality, this is perfectly portioned for lunches that consist of one entr\u00e9e and one side dish. Although I typically prefer boxier shapes to be able to pack in more food, I did find the volume to be adequate
\u2022 Preservability: I was a little concerned at first as the lid does not fully \u201csnap\u201d shut, and instead tends to slide shut. That said, I can confirm that there were not issues with preserving food in the fridge for at least 3-4 days at a time.
\u2022 Wash: I often find it very frustrating and difficult to wash plastic containers, particularly cheaper ones. Although some of those elements remain here, I appreciated the little touches like the \u201cgripped\u201d bottom of each container. And in general, these are easier to wash grease off than the cheaper alternatives.

It has been instrumental in allowing him -- and caregivers -- to sleep well and stay in bed through the night. Now he has declined to the point where we have transitioned to condom catheters because he is no longer able to hold the urinal and position it correctly.
I would give it 4.5 stars if I could, because there's a slight improvement I'd like to see in the design. We have used the same urinal for a couple of years, but we have changed the collection bag several times (which cost only a few dollars each). The urinal drain tube is the same diameter as the collection bag tubing, and there's a stretchy thin rubber sleeve (the green section you can see in the photos) that goes on the outside of both pieces to hold them together and seal the joint. To change the bag, we
\u2022 Remove the hard plastic barb fitting at the upper end of the bag tube, as it is not used
\u2022 Roll back (condom style) the stretchy sleeve to release the old bag tube
\u2022 While holding the sleeve in a rolled position, butt the new bag tube against the urinal drain tube
\u2022 Release the sleeve and unroll it over the new bag tubing
This is easier said than done. The sleeve is hard to roll up far enough, then hard to hold in place. while positioning the new tune. If the new tube and the urinal drain tube are not butted closely together, the gap can allow the sleeve to twist and seal off the drain. And if you let the sleeve slip in the process, it is very difficult to get the new tube in place without the sleeve rolled up.
So the design improvement I would suggest is to change the joint at the urinal drain tube to allow easy usage with standard drain bag barb fittings.
I suggest buying two of these. We disinfect my dad's after each night with bleach water, but periodically, it's good to immerse the urinal itself in bleach water and soak it. Having two of them makes this easier to do.", "label": 1}

Small Enough to Take Anywhere!- The Liv Sure Water Tester is small enough to fit in your pocket. This way, you can take it out with you and test the drinking water at restaurants or wherever else you go!
Measures Total Dissolved Solids-
The readings are based on the TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) level in the drinking water. Total Dissolved Solids are impurities found in the water. TDS's can include salts, metals, lead, arsenic, byproducts from sewage, fertilizer, pesticides, and a variety of other impurities.
Easy to Understand-
In addition to the \"numerical value\" the IHP Water Tester provides, it also gives a visual indication so you know the quality of your water at a quick glance.-
If the water is very good in quality, a smiley face is shown. If it is pretty good, the face is half smiling. If it is adequate, but not great, the face is neither smiling nor frowning. If the water quality is suspect, the face is half frowning. If the water is unclean, and unfit to drink, a frowning face is displayed. A chart is also printed on the back of the device so you can quickly determine how good or bad the reading is.

Cost effective, \"multi-use\" tester!- I'm also going to use Liv Sure on my well water... too!

Wore them with no socks one summer and they've been not so fresh ever since. Sprayed them with this stuff and they are odor-free.

Stuff works on canvas, leather, every material I've tried it on.
Ok, so here's the interesting part:
It also works on carpet.
Have a female cat missing a back leg. She can't help but drag urine on the carpet after she uses the box. As much as I love my kitty friend, that is something I can't tolerate. It's been an issue since I can recall. Tried everything. Tried laundry detergent. Soaked carpet in vinegar, baking soda and a mix of the two. Shampooed and steamed the carpet a dozen times but the pheromones in cat urine are impossible to get rid of. So I tried this spray. Actually alleviated the smell! I can't believe it! I don't mind the faint citrus scent, and it's so much better than cat urine. Worth mentioning that the citrus scent does not seem to fade. It isn't overbearing.
On carpet I sprayed more liberally. I assumed the carpet and the pad were too thick and dense but this stuff is tenacious.

I didn't know what it could be ,it took us a while before we found the source ,Stirio was the culprit. Right away I put it out from the house because the internal battery was the only part that could create this noise and could of easily explode. Now my problem is that this could have happened while we were out and let\u2019s say burns down the house (wasn't even charging ). Who would take responsibility for it right? Common sense dictates the manufacturer would jump on this issue and try to look into it further ,because they stand behind the products they make right ? Again I might ask , well NO not this company they are the most IGNORANT I have ever seen in my life , even products purchased from China have better customer support than this one(Talking from experience)! So here\u2019s what I think, if you want to go home from work to your still standing home, don't buy this dangerous product. Just stir that polenta by hand and you will maybe save yourself a lifetime of headache , it isn't worth risking everything over this worthless piece and especially because the Ignorance these people at Unikia have!(The store had only 30 day return policy and they suggested to contact them directly).
Read below how much they care. It is Disturbing!
Answer from Unikia after contacting them about the issue
"Hello Helen.
This is a fabulous product that is a huge success.
You have to contact the store you bought the product.
Best regards
Patrik"
Watch this short video
After the video I turned it on high speed to make sure the battery drained completely and not to explode .
You decide for yourself whether worth buying this or not !
Nothing from UNIKIA anymore not even a cutting board i would trust from them !", "label": 0}

I am a little confused because the listing on Amazon showed that the product is called "Polygonum Tinctorium", but the bag I received says "Indigofera Tinctoria". The powder itself looks the same shade of medium blue/gray. Both describe the product as "Indigo Pigment". In the available studies, they say they used "Indigo Naturalis" and the color is similar. Also on the order page, one of the pictures you can click on to see the powder outside of the bag shows it as being a darker olive green color, but the actual color of the product I received is blue/gray, the same color that the clear bag shows in the other clickable pictures of the product. Like I said, a little confusing.
In any case the product that was sent is working to reverse my "severe psoriasis" fairly quickly. I mix it with lotion and it turns a very dark blue color (almost black) and I apply it directly to the psoriasis. It can stain clothing and bedding blue, but so far these stains come out in the wash, so not too much of a problem. The best part is that I am having to use it less and less because the psoriasis is clearing up!

Eviction is mandatory. My usual method of tonsil demon removal is taking the butt of my toothbrush to coax them out where they inevitably travel to the back of my throat where I try my best to fish them out whilst they fiercely fight back by triggering my gag reflex, which often results in them being, well......ingested. I know. YUCK. The thought makes my stomach turn but I'm just being honest. However, this God send of a device totally solves that problem!
Long story short, if you have surface level tonsil demons that aren't too deeply embedded all you have to do is point and suck. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. However, if you're blessed with thicc cavernous tonsils like me, you may still have to use a toothbrush butt or tonsil stone tool in order to coax the demon out enough to suction it out. I've tried sticking the vacuum tube to the entrance of the cavern to suck them out to no avail. Still, this device has made it so much easier for me to get them out once I get them close to the entrance of the cavern. Proof is in the pic. It's really effing gross but I wanted to show people this device actually works instead of just taking a pic of the product. Full disclosure: I suctioned out 2 large and 2 small tonsil demons in less than 2 minutes thanks to this device. Since 3 of the cowards tried to hide in the vacuum tube, I removed the tube and rinsed it out promptly sending them down the river Styx and back to Hades where they belong. However, the largest one was big enough to clog the end of the vacuum tube so I was able to set the corpse aside for you to behold. Apologies for the pic guys. Consider watching a cat or dog video after reading this review to escape the awful imagery you've witnessed here. Happy tonsil demon removal!", "label": 1}

It is very much like the devices used in doctors and physical therapy offices. It comes with a less than adequate \"manual\", with over-the-top claims of making you slim and trim, increasing your bust size, among many other crazy things.
This should come with much better instructions, warnings, and contraindications. There are so many ways that you can use a TENS unit in the wrong way that is very dangerous and life-threatening. There is no mention of warnings or contraindications, whatsoever, in the hyped up \"manual\".
What my sensitive nerves experienced were unpleasant muscle contractions, along with zaps and zings to the point that I could not stand it. I can use a regular TENS unit on lower settings, but the \"Instrument\" I received is a bit unstable, and every electrode does not put out the same strength/intensity on the chosen stimulation mode. I used ultrasound gel and made sure the electrodes were well covered, but it didn't seem to make a difference. I still got zapped by one electrode or another. Maybe this machine is just too strong for my nerves. They are rather sensitive.
This might work as a very good TENS unit for some people, but I don't believe one word about it toning your body, making you lose weight, enhancing your breast or any other part of your body. Those are just outright lies. That is why they put hyphens in between such words in the listing.
Many people would love such a device for the relief of pain without being told it will help them lose weight, develop strong and beautiful breasts, and even prevent cancer, when it clearly will not. People who are in pain are desperate to relieve it without the use of medications. They would gladly buy a professional TENS unit, but who wants to buy a gimmick?
Sadly, this will not work for me, even as a TENS unit. I just wish that it were sold solely as such.", "label": 0}

If you're just looking to measure your weight, any $20 scale will do. Make it $35 if you want to measure body fat too. Then make it $130 if you want it to have WiFi and work with your Fitbit. But if you are already in the Fitbit ecosystem (I, personally, own a Flex and love it), and you have the extra money to spend, this scale is a good choice because it syncs flawlessly with the app on your phone, graphing your weight over time (surprisingly boring graph for people who are not trying to cut or gain weight), and your lean vs fat over time. And you can see it at a glance next to your steps, calories burned, active minutes, etc.
Setup was a breeze. The design of the white scale also fits in well with most bathrooms. (Highly suggest the white scale over the black scale for most people.) And the screen is backlit so it works well in the early morning and at night when you may be too lazy to turn on the lights.
It does work with multiple family members, and works best if your family members have weights spread at least 10 pounds apart because the scale distinguishes individuals by weight and body fat percentage (as opposed to being fully sentient). New users will be registered as guests on their first weigh-in. Then, just program each person into the scale via the Fitbit.com site, and the scale will automatically recognize them in the future. If two users have similar weights, they'll need to manually tap the scale with their foot after each weighing to cycle through the initials of who the scale thinks might have just weighed themselves.
My biggest gripes are (1) the price, and (2) that the scale's body fat measurement may not be the most accurate. Of course, no body fat scale on the market today works particularly well. But when your body fat typically only moves by 1-2%, and the scale might have an error range of 1-2%, the feature obviously will not be particularly helpful.

Now on to the reasons I can't give the product so many stars... Bunions, or "pones" as my aunt likes to call them, apparently run in the family on my mom's side, with the females anyway. My aunt has her "pones" and my mom was starting to get them. My grandmother had them so bad that she had to have surgery and they were painful for her. Her toes had started turning to the side. I was always afraid I'd get them and sure enough, a couple of months ago I looked down and saw the dreaded POINT on the side of my foot. ARGH!!! PONE! I immediately started freaking out trying to make it go away, pushing my toes around thinking I was just seeing things... NOPE! My husband commented on it and said he could see it. :/
I stumbled across these correctors while looking for other things and decided I'd try them to see if they'd help...they're made out of silicone. They aren't supportive like they look like they would be from the pictures. I put them between my first and second toes to see how they would fit and the corrector wedged correctly between my toes but the side was floppy and not shaped to the side of my foot like it shows in the pictures. When I walk it just flops around all over the place.
So. so based on my experience, I can see where it might work as far as keeping your toes apart, but after wearing it, I could only give the product itself two stars. I don't think it's good to wear in your shoe the way it flops and twists around. Maybe if you could use some adhesive it might work better, but it's not advertised that way.
I must include that I did receive this product at a discounted price in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. That being said, I will always add a completely honest review based on my own experiences with a product whether there is any type of compensation or not.

I'm sharing the formula in this review. It's simple - just three ingredients, and cost effective. This is for folks with seriously sensitive skin, e.g. autoimmune issues etc. One proviso: this is not for laundry with heavy staining, e.g. motor oil, but for normal laundry with mild-to-medium staining. For heavy staining, I recommend treating the stains with vinegar first. Also note: never use borax or the two popular-brands of castile soap as these are likely to irritate sensitive skin. Also, when handling washing soda, throw a face-mask on to avoid breathing in any particulates.
Have a large plastic or glass container with a screw top to store your DIY laundry detergent in, a one-cup measuring utensil, and a cheese grater. If purchasing a 5lb bag of washing soda, also purchase 5lbs of pure baking soda (I use Arm & Hammer). If purchasing a 10lb bag of washing soda, purchase 10lbs of pure baking soda, i.e. always a 1-to-1 ratio. Scoop 3 cups of washing soda into your container (with your face-mark ON) then 3 cups of pure baking soda into your container. Use a cheese grater to then grate 1 bar of Cetaphil Gentle Cleansing \"soap\" into the container. Finish off by scooping 2 cups more washing soda and 2 cups more baking soda. Close the container tightly, turn upside down a few times to distribute the 3 ingredients around inside. Whether using a top-loader or front-loader washing machine, the process is the same. Use 1/2 cup of the DIY detergent per load. Load half the clothes, shake half the 1/2 cup in over the clothes. Load the rest of your clothes, then empty the remaining 1/2 cup in over the clothes.

Based on the high ratings and online reports, I chose Clean Chlorella SL in 200 milligram tablet form since I prefer not having to taste it. If you're curious as to the size of each tablet, they're similar in size to a baby aspirin. As for how valid the online ratings and reports are, I have my fingers crossed.
Although it took Amazon Prime about 2 weeks to ship this item, when it finally arrived, I eased into my daily doses as per other reviewers' words of caution. Since Chlorella will elevate the body's basal temperature, I balanced each 1 gram increase with 1 gram of Spirulina which helps to "cool" the body. If you have the tendency to run "hot" or suffer from headaches and migraines like me, the slow increase is strongly recommended. During the first week of dosing, I experienced very mild yet tolerable headaches. On a pain scale, they were a sporadic 1 and only occurred in the morning.
The gradual process of dosing will also give your bowels time to acclimate to the "moistening" effect of the intestines. This just means that if you struggle with "dry" intestines a.k.a. constipation, the Chlorella and Spirulina combo will remedy this so long as the dosing is done in daily steps for sensitivity sake.
Going into my second week, I've decided to reorder in bulk. After trying many Traditional Chinese herbal remedies along with following Traditional Chinese food therapy in hopes to heal my myriad of physical issues, it is the Chlorella and Spirulina combo that's yielding the most positive results.

I have tried so hard to love these bottles, but after months of use I am completely fed up with them. The price and the look is spot on - the functionality is AWFUL. The plastic is thin; after approximately 4 or 5 pumps the bottles begin to "suck in". Another Amazon reviewer stated it perfectly:
"Further, the bottles asphyxiate themselves over time and you have to open them to let more air in so the soap will pump out. Surmising this is bad pump design lacking proper venting to replace the volume of soap pumped out with air."
Also, the plastic ring between the tube and the pump top wrinkles, tears and gets mashed up after multiple threadings and un-threadings of the top. I really didn't want to spend a ton of money on foaming soap dispensers as I have five sinks in my house that need them, but this product was NOT the way to go.

This kit delivers, especially at the price.
How do they do it? How can they be selling a better quality clipper for less money than many other clipper kits? They don't load the kit down with accessories that look nice but that you'll probably never use. So, instead of a dozen length guides, you get four (2 x 2 dual size guides). You don't get interchangable heads that, honestly, rarely work well anyway. (Nose hair, foil shaver, etc--the ones you find in the more elaborate kits are mostly junk). You don't get a plastic stand/tray that will take up counterspace and offers no added value. You don't get multiple speeds on the clipper that you don't need and will never use.
Nope, what you get is the clipper, a USB charger cable, a cheap brush, some clipper oil, a comb and two dual-sided length guides. That's it. But that's probably all you need.
The clipper also comes in a retail box. So if this is for someone else, it's giftable.
The clipper works very well. An excellent deal at the current price.
Let me note that this is a grooming clipper with a somewhat more narrow head. It's perfect for trimming a beard/sideburns/neck hair/body hair. If, however, you plan to actually cut your head of hair, you probably want to look to clippers with wider heads.

The moving parts don\u2019t fit together with any tolerance to allow movement to fold when the retaining bolts are loose. Forget about this feature.
2) brakes: no. No it does not. The wheels have no grip, so IF the brakes stop them from rolling they just slide. The grip strength required to get the brakes to work would rival Thor, and the result of braking is really just wear on the wheel as it drags. I now have a flat spot from a prolonged application of the brakes on an incline. Use your foot. The brakes don\u2019t work.
It needs rubber on the wheels.
Parts: The first one arrived with parts that didn\u2019t fit right. I returned it. The second was the same. Whoever designed the quick release bolts at the front axle was high.
The front wheels attach with bolts that will listen over time. If you go any distance at all please check them before you\u2019re wheels fall off.
The basket: the attachment to the scooter for this sack is downright laughable. It falls off regularly requiring unloading and reinstallation. It\u2019s worse when you try and put it down in the trunk while loaded and it comes out half hanging on.
Keep in mind I bought this to maintain normal mobility while healing from ORIF of my calcaneus. 12 weeks plus time before surgery. I\u2019ve walked dogs, gone to work every day as a physician, gone to museums and taken walks with my family. It\u2019s probably fine for around the house or in a rehab center. But if you want a normalized life on one foot you probably want something else.", "label": 0}

I was diagnosed with SVT (which they said it appears I had all my life and just didn't notice until pregnancy made me more aware of my body), and I was given atenolol. Well that didn't do anything. I was also advised to have a cryoablation of my heart since I was at risk of having a sudden "dry pump" heart attack. Scary, and hell no. (Today, that procedure has been altered from what they wanted to do to me 18 years ago.)
I did some research instead and came across Horse chestnut and hawthorn. I took a bottle of Hawthorn over the course of a month, then ran out and stopped taking it. (busy working Mom not taking care of myself first) The effects lasted for months, so I thought it cured the problem. No such luck. I went to find the same Hawthorn, only could find a complex (Hawthorn/Horse chestnut/ and buthchers broom). Tried that and it wasn't as good for me; I think because there wasn't enough Hawthorn in it for me.
Anyways... over the years I have taken several brands because I stop and start and the Health/Herbal store changed what it carried. This brand is very effective. For me that means it works within a few hours of taking it. If the palpatations stop within 6 six hours I am happy with the brand. I usually only take one a day, unless I feel like I am going to have a heart attack/pass out. Over the years the cost has really come down do to competition. My first bottle was $28 18 years ago. So I encourage anyone to take the gamble at this price. Oh ya, and EKG's don't lie: it is effective. If you wear a monitor, take it and dumbfound the stubborn doctors that are skeptical of herbal remedies.", "label": 1}

My one year old enjoys pulling out the products from the slots for now, but will enjoy having storage space in the future. Please read on about why I gave it a two star. You might like it better than I did.
Pros:
-Stays in place. I was easily able to attach this product to my headrest in no time. It took little effort to get the product in place and set up.
-Elastic holders work well. The elastic holders that are holding the shoes in the product photo work well at holding items in. It will hold both long items and heavy items.
-Size. The size of the product fits my two door car well. My daughter is easily able to access the items that she needs while I am paying attention to the road and keeping her safe.
Cons:
-Slots not too large. Some of the slots don't live up to their potential. I was hoping for slots that were able to fit shoes as shown in the photo, but it will only work for the young toddler and infant shoes. I was expecting more storage space.
-Material is thick but rough. Although the material is thick and sturdy, the material isn't soft. It is very coarse to the touch and you can see the cross-haired pattern of the plasticy thread.
-Nonelastic holders fall out. If I put something long or light into the nonelastic holders, I am left with items that fall out onto the floor. This is a mess that I have to clean up, and creates a nuisance.
-Wrap around is unattractive. The bottom wraps around to the front of the chair which is unattractive from the view of the front seat.
Overall: This product receives two stars or a D+. It received a two star instead of a three star because of the plasticy material

It was massively too big with the arm pocket extending to my fingertips and the strap around my shoulder was so long, doubled over it was still too long. This is not to mention the contortions required to attach the strap with a painful shoulder. I think you would need to be 7 feet tall with a chest the size of a giant for this arm sling to be an appropriate size.
The second one was an Amazon SLR Products model. Overall this one is a good arm sling with the only little nit being the arm strap being a tad long without enough adjustment to get my arm to a \"level\" position or slightly higher to take the stress of my shoulder joint. The strap attachment at the wrist was easy to use unlike the option above from the big box store.
This Copper Compression arm sling is just right for this Medium size T-shirt/Polo wearing man of average build and height. It has by far the best adjustment system and range of adjustment. I cannot speak to the Pro's and Con's of the copper aspect other than to say it seems to be anti-microbial and has not picked up any weird smells or odors after nearly a week of use. Whether copper is doing anything else is an unknown to me at this time so I will defer to people more knowledgable than I regarding the benefits of copper in injury recovery. The strap adjustment system is easy to use and sized reasonably. The strap is split at the neck and relieves any pressure and, it lets the skin breathe so it doesn't get sweaty there. It is super easy to put on and take off using one hand and is as good as it gets with shoulder pain.
**--**--** Update after recovery December 31, 2019
The Copper Compression Arm Sling is the best arm sling I used. The runner up, SLR Products model was nearly as good but, to be honest after using the Copper Compression Arm Sling I never put it back on. The Copper Compression Arm Sling just worked better for my body size and profile. For the price, quality, and performance I can honestly say this was the best one I tried and it helped me heal faster with less discomfort and pain. Highly recommended!", "label": 1}

I love the taste, but you really have to like cherry limeades. It's got a nice, dominant lemony/lime flavor, with a subtle cherry aftertaste. The amino acid profile is good, but nothing too extraordinary compared to other BCAA supplements, and I've tried A LOT. Compared to the other big brand-name ones I've used (Optimum Nutrition's Amino Energy, Cellucor's Alpha Amino, Neon's Kinetic, X-Tend's, BSN's), I would say it's pretty decent overall. My favorite tends to lean toward's Neon's and X-Tend's aminos, but that's because they have more of a "refreshing" flavor that I like sipping on intra-workout (I'm a sucker for those coconut-water enhanced ones). On another note, like many others have mentioned, the solid form of these aminos smells atrocious (like you just ate a bad burrito and it gave you some intense gas). However, once you mix it into liquid form, it smells like lime. Solubility-wise, the powder mixes pretty well and doesn't leave any clumps or particles swimming around. Concerning the effect of this supplement, I have to first say that I'm a strong believer in supplementing BCAAs during your workout. I feel like doing this has always helped my recovery, helps me push harder in my workout, and I honestly feel like they're the only reason why I am able to have what others consider "a long workout" (roughly 2-3 hours a day depending on if I am workout out solo or what body parts I am training). I don't get tired at all, and I can literally workout for hours and hours if I could...In summation, if you can get over the bad scent and the plastic particles (unless that's just me), then you should absolutely consider purchasing this product.

The height and availability of a flexible light head were just perfect. The color of the fixture fit well. The light itself has two levels of brightness and each is controlled by a toggle switch in a perfect location under the head. A flexible next permits ease of setup and ease of changing just the head's position. The base is heavy enough to keep the unbalanced head from tilting over during most operations and I have yet to find a position that would cause it to fall over.
Then constructing the lamp from 3 pieces plus 2 1/4 inch screws (critical to construction) turned into a semi-nightmare. The internal cord was so stiff it took major tinkering. It is just a bit too long and it needs to be near perfect to make for the ideal connection between the base and the extension rod going to the head. After I finally connnected the base to the extension with one of the screws I found that the screw was just too small to hold the assembly above the base. I held the extension in place, connected the head with the other screw and found a similar but not quite as bad connection. Finally, I plugged the cord into the outlet and the light at either level is nice and handy. I took a \"gather my wits\" break and returned a few moments later to move the light to its permanent place. I forgot about the screw and just lifted the light by the extension and the bottom fell off. Oops and it never worked as it was intended to work.
I refused to be outdone by a lamp and make my very own Rube Goldberg light at my work station in the garage by plugging the cord into an outlet and attaching the base's cord to the head without the extension. I placed the head above the area that I use for close and tedious work such as fixing watches, clocks or computer parts and am happy with the results. Even though the original setup is faulty the final product is at least useful. Maybe I should have considered a higher score but it was too much work for such an outcome.", "label": 0}

It seemed that every time I got a cold it progressed into a sinus infection, or bronchitis so I was trying to discover if I possibly had a vitamin deficiency.
As I was searching I found this comment about Oralmat on a website:
" Oralmat - from Australia. Natural herbal product with no listed side effects derived from Ryegrass. Medical trials are underway in Australia. Anecdotal patient reports claim the product is so effective that allergy & asthma sufferers can greatly reduce or even eliminate normal medication / inhalers. Adults asthmatics get significant relief after 3 to 4 weeks and children respond much faster. Allergy symptoms may improve within minutes of use.
Oralmat is said to produce broad-spectrum results for numerous conditions including:
* Chronic fatigue - symptoms abate within 7 to 10 days
* Asthma
* MS patients - dramatic reduction in fatigue & fewer relapses
* Cold and Flu - symptoms said to disappear within HOURS of administration.
* Hayfever and Allergic Rhinitis - rapid improvement, even within MINUTES of use for some individuals
* Sinus Headaches - rapid drainage of congested sinus passages relieves headaches"
Well, I decided to give it a try. What could it hurt--no known side effects? I am so glad I did! My husband was skeptical at first until he had symptoms of a beginning cold which vanished after using 3 drops of Oralmat on his tongue, 3 times a day for a couple of days. I have had those same results. I have not had a cold, or sinus infection since discovering Oralmat several months ago. It is amazing how quickly the symptoms leave after taking the drops.
I highly recommend this product and have purchased several bottles some of which I have shared with skeptical friends or family because they didn't want to spend the $20-$35 (prices vary) to experiment.", "label": 1}

The Dreft laundry detergent itself? LOVE IT. Smells SO GOOD... to me. Mmmmm
I have been using Dreft products on and off since 2007. I do not have kids, but at some point I ended up with the stain remover spray, which is awesome stuff. Then I would buy the detergent once in awhile, especially for use with my cats and dogs bedding. I hadn't purchased any in a long time, I think a lot of other gentle products came to market and I simply got away from it (not the stain remover though, still the best for me). Forward to this box of detergent. I really don't recall now what the detergent of the past smells like but I really like the way this smells. It is similar to a few others out there- floral, sweet. You may or may not like it. I like it. It works well with anything I have washed so far. If the scent has changed any, I understand why some would not like it-- sometimes we want what is familiar to use and what has worked.
Really not sure why anyone would think this was fake? It is sold by Dreft, not a 3rd party. Go to their page and it is ALL Dreft items. Anyway.. the detergent works as expected. Smells good too!

It\u2019s broad width, easily accessible slots for your hands and the relative ease of wrapping and adjusting the belt around the trunk of an individual makes this product unique and much more functional than several other transfer belts I have used for my mother. However, the design and construction of the belt is terrible, which causes it to easily rip at the outer edge of the slots were you place your hands and could lead to the sudden and catastrophic failure of this device and result in the falling of a disabled individual.
I actually have bought two of these belts on two different occasions. The first belt lasted about three months before the first major rip, which made further use of the belt too risky because of my fear the belt would completely tear and result in my mother falling suddenly. Note my mother weighs only 128 pounds. However, because I really liked the \u201cfunctionality\u201d of the belt, I ordered a second one and hoped the failure of the first belt was due to a fluke production issue. However, the second belt miserably failed again in the same way and within the second week of its use. On closer inspection, I found the belt to be oddly constructed from multiple sections not initially appreciated and stitched together with only a single line of thread, which is not apparent until two pieces rip apart. Furthermore, the fabric itself tears much more easily than expected. Both of these design and construction issues can cause sudden and unexpected failure of this belt and lead to the sudden fall of a disabled individual, especially if they are much heavier than my mother.
I suggest the manufacturer of this belt to re-design it with much stronger fabric and reinforced stitching and to switch to a single unit construction, which would negate the need to stitch smaller units together.
I would judge this current product to be potentially dangerous because of its tendency to suddenly and unexpectantly fail without warning, thereby placing disabled patients at a risk for falling in spite of the assistance of a care giver.", "label": 0}

Well this Blackhead Remover+Ance 3Pcs Set,Black head Export Liquid+Black Mask+Compact Toner is the second black mask I have tried, and again I am not that impressed. This one, has no directions on the product. I looked on the product page and those are TERRIBLE directions, laughable really. You would think that if they really wanted people to buy their products over here in the US they would be able to get someone to translate directions for use. I had to ask other customers what they did and how to use the products. As best I can tell you this is what you do:
#1 and apply to your face. It is quite watery and I wish that it came with a roll on applicator. I ended using a rolled up peice of tissue to apply.
#2, apply black face mask to your face, avoid eyes and mouth etc. I tried to get an even coat but still ended up having some areas that were thicker than the rest. Be aware that if you use a lot it will tend to run a bit downwards on your face, I had to wipe mine a few times to keep from dripping. Let this dry completely before peeling up from bottom of your chin to the top.
#3, quite similar to #2 with its wateriness. I again used a tissue but I wish it came with a roller.
So the end result was not as good as I had hoped. It does NOT hurt as bad as some people say, however it did pull a bunch of fine hairs out of my face, which can definitely hurt. When looking at what I had left over I didn't see anything on it but skin and hair. THIS DID NOT REMOVE ANY BLACKHEADS. It DID leave my skin feeling smooth, but that is probably because of all the hair it pulled out. Overall this product felt nice, but failed for its intended use.

I have been dabbling in essential oils for aromatherapy, application, and cleaning purposes for a almost a year now and I've been pleasantly surprised with how much I like them. I'm a big fan of diffusing them to help with "ailments" and I think this set of blends is an amazing deal for a great set.
What I like:
1) This includes all of the most common oil blends that you can make if you have all of the individual oils. Stress Relief, Sleepytime, Headache remedy, breathe better, health shield (immune booster), and muscle relief. There are lots of mixtures you can do depending on the issue you are addressing, but these have been the most common (other than muscle relief) that we have used in our house.
2) The sizes of the bottles are great. Its more than enough to last you a while, as you only need a few drops in your diffuser.
3) They are already pre-mixed in the correct amounts. No guesswork, no worrying if you have enough of one oil or not enough of another, and you can always add a couple more drops of whatever you want to make this more customizable ( if you want to add slightly more eucalyptus or peppermint to the diffuser when you use "Breathe," for instance)
4) Dark amber glass bottles and heavy duty caps to keep the oils safe.
5) Comes in a really nice box, so this would be perfect to give as a gift.
What I don't like:
I honestly haven't come across anything yet. All of the ones I've tried have been helpful and they smell exactly like the blends I had been doing.
Overall, I'm glad I gave this set a try and I will definitely be buying my mother a set since shes just starting out with essential oils. I think this set is super convenient and well priced for what you get. I'm very happy with it!

The painters left me with cans for touch ups, but therein lies the problem. You know what it is - open up a gallon can, have to stir it up, find a brush, and drip, drip, drip. I knew I would need to do an occasional touch up and felt there had to be a better way. After searching on Amazon, I found these tubes, and thought "wow, what a great idea!" I didn't love the price but felt the convenience would make it worth it. I did end up going to the manufacturer's website and ordered from there directly. Do check for specials they offer-I was able to get a larger tube added to the set for the same price and shipping was very fast. Once the tubes arrived, I set about to fill them. The process was very easy and straightforward. I have only had once chance to try them out, as the paint is so new. There was a small chip on an outside corner in my bedroom. It was so convenient to not have to open the paint can, pour some in a disposable container, get out a brush just to fix this one small but obvious spot, and then have to deal with all the leftover paint and dirty brush. I cannot address the durability of the foam pad on the top as of yet. While the manufacture suggests that the paint pumps be disposed of, they say they can be washed to be reused. It isn't easy to clean them and get our all of the paint in them, but I figured I'd try. I would suggest that you try to match the pump with the paint color you first used them with, to prevent any color change in the refill. Think of these as paint marking pens. I think they will come in very handy. I only wish I had thought of them myself!", "label": 1}

For more than three weeks my sister had been suffering from a unusually persistent itchy psoriasis outbreak that had spread from her neck to her arms. All the herbal remedies that we normally made during her milder skin problems were not responding well enough, so as a last resort we followed a recipe that used a combination of Irish moss, a golden seal infusion, and an equal amount of vegetable glycerin.
Literally after only three applications in a eight hour period we saw the redness on her skin and the red hot itchy bumps on her arms virtually disappear leaving behind only minor traces. Apart from that their was an immediate sense of relief from the uncomfortable itching that ended after only the first application. Even though we had used many different external and internal herbal formulas that normally worked, this time the itchy red bumps had managed to form a red uncomfortable sheet on the entire surface of her lower arms. This wonderful mixture completely took care of all these problems in a matter of days, leaving her skin smooth without a single scar. Even the usual dry psoriasis patches that worsened during these episodes responded beautifully to the mixture, and quickly softened until they too finally disappeared in one weeks time.
It was an unreal experiences given how much a person can suffer from skin conditions like psoriasis. I know that petroleum jelly is often used as a base for many homemade topical herbal remedies, but the results I personally witnessed using the Irish moss instead is far better if not seem more healing for the skin in the long run, since petroleum jelly can some times encourage excessive dryness if repeatedly used. However, the sticky jelly solution that is created after the moss is heated in water makes a wonderful binding agent that gently nourishes the skin and naturally promotes the body to heal itself. Their are other formulas to experiment with depending on the severity of the problem, either way using the Irish moss as a binder would enhance the healing process.", "label": 1}

So I placed the massager on the couch, laid down and put my calves in it. I. set it to auto which is 15 minutes of different types of massage. I let it finish and for the rest of the night I had no pain in my legs! This is absolutely better than having to take ibuprofen all the time which didn't work as well as the massage. The unit runs nice and quiet and is a beautiful red color. It is quite large but that's OK, I just store it beside the couch or underneath my coffee table for easy access as we will be using this every day.

Factors, such as menstruation, synthetic underwear and pantyhose, tight-fitting pants, sitting on cold surfaces, not hydrating the body enough, ingesting too much sugar and/or alcohol, and, most importantly, sexual activity can all cause painful and debilitating UTIs. Fortunately, there is a solution to the problem: D-Mannose. This isn't the first D-Mannose product I used, but it is by far the best.
The first D-Mannose herbal supplement I used was purchased for me by my boyfriend at a local drugstore. It's important to mention that it was in capsule form and only had 1000 mg of D-Mannose per serving. It also had 400 mg of cranberry juice powder infused into it. Anyway, I took this concoction for about a week, but immediately on the first day of taking it, I broke out in hives. I do not have any allergies on either of the two ingredients, but nonetheless that product must have had some contaminants in it, so I had to throw it out (what a waste of $17.99).
NOW is the second D-Mannose product I am using and it's going to be the one I stay with. I've been using it occasionally, whenever I feel that I have to, in order to prevent the development of an infection. And I must say that it is perfect. I am using powder form, which contains 2000 mg of PURE D-Mannose. I mix a teaspoon into a glass of water and drink up. It has a sweet taste, but I'm not worried about the sugar intake because it all flushes out of the urinary tract, sweeping away uninvited bacteria. As far as I heard, D-Mannose works only on E-coli bacteria, but then again up to 90% of all UTIs are caused by that bacterium.
I have no adverse reactions from NOW's D-Mannose, as I did with my first product. The price is a great value and I'm happy with what I purchased.", "label": 1}

After my infection, he gave me a sample of the Alcon brand and recommended I try cleaning them with a stronger solution. After wearing contact lenses for over 20 years now, I've tried it all and nothing, NOTHING else cleans my soft lens as well. In fact, when I've used other brands to try and save money (you know, the general multi-purpose stuff) I can actually feel the difference. The lens don't feel as comfortable for the same period of time and they feel "drier" in my eyes (best way I can think to describe it). And I need to replace them with a fresh pair sooner. To me, the few extra dollars for a bottle is well worth it as it has saved me money on contacts in the long run. I wear lens that are to be replaced every 30 days (so I have to purchase 12 pairs for the year) but using this solution, I can make them last twice as long.
I wear my monthly lens for an astigmatism, so because of that corrective issue, for me, a years supply of contacts runs around $250. I try to make them last longer than that because of that fact. When I went to the doctor's office in January of this year I had had my lens in for about 3-4 months (remember they are monthlys) and while the doctor saw they needed replaced she was amazed at how clean they looked for their age and that I had made them last that long when I wear them every day. That right there is real proof at how well this solution works.

The ingredients are fairly simple in that there isn't a ton of extra fillers, sweetners that most people don't want (fake and artificial), and they use Stevia Leaf extract. So, if you have issues with the after flavor from stevia or don't enjoy that, beware it is in there.
I find that the mix is really tasty and doesn't leave a bad taste in my mouth. It mixed up easily into my mug of water and made it much easier to drink the amount of water that I am trying to drink. The flavor that I picked is wild berry. I love mixed berry flavors a lot and this doesn't disappoint.
I find that it helps keep me from having cramping in my legs overnight, as it contains a decent amount of your daily supply of magnesium (24% of the daily recommended intake). Some enjoy having Zinc for reducing colds, etc, this has a decent amount of zinc include.
My only thoughts or comments for improvements would be a couple of items:
The plastic spoon in the package is great, in that you can find it easily up opening the container.
Downside, once you take it out to measure your mix into your water, is was very hard to put back into the container. It could also use a little \"pour notch\" to make it easier to fit into the mouth of a bottle a bit easier, as that can be a bit messy trying to pour this into the bottle top.
Overall the wild berry flavor is decent. Stevia leaf extract makes me excited as it is not a fake sweetener and it is a zero sugar, great for keto electrolyte option. The Pink Himalayan salt is a very nice touch to help as well. If you are looking for a decent flavor enhancement to make drinking water easier, this is a decent electrolyte and I am looking forward trying other flavors and adding it to my drink enhancements.", "label": 1}

I have hair down to my elbows and trim my own hair at home regularly to save time and money. I cut my hair with these and on close inspection noticed that my ends did NOT have a clean cut. The ends looked less than fresh, with a whitish speck on the end of each hair (like a split end waiting to split). The tension knob didn't help either. I'd say I had about 25% split ends I wanted to eliminate, but instead I created a full head of hair of 100% primed and ready to split hairs. Talk about unfortunate!! My goal of a healthy trim totally backfired. The $6 Goody brand hair cutting scissors I bought at Walmart are WORLDS better than these. I bought these Equinox shears to step it up a level from the Goody scissors, haaaaaa. Total fail. Goody for the win!! I have since gone back to the Goody scissors and I'm so pleased because they offer a quality sharp cut. The only advantage these "fancier" Equinox kind have are the pouch, the thinning shears (which I also don't trust considering the effect the regular shears had), and they look sleeker than the Goody brand (earning them 2 stars instead of 1). Overall, my advice is that if you want nice scissors and you're a hairstylist (and your clients will give you a weird look if you use Goody shears on them), get more expensive ones than these. I imagine it must be hit or miss with mid-level shears and these are definitely a miss in my book (considering these were terrible for me but the $6 Goody ones are cheap and amazing in comparison).

- Flavor: 5/5
With most pre-workouts, I either hate the flavor right away, or I start to get tired of it after a couple of servings. That has not happened with this flavor so far, and it\u2019s honestly one of the most delicious pre-workouts I\u2019ve ever tasted. Literally tastes like a mojito (Raspberry Lime Mojito flavor)
- Energy Effects: 4/5
I\u2019m quite sensitive to caffeine, so I almost never take a full serving of pre-workout. In fact, I usually half it. Even with a half dose, I definitely feel the energy and it makes me want to shred weights. It\u2019s not so much that I get jittery though. However, and I\u2019ve noticed this on different occasions, I do seem to crash a few hours later. It\u2019s not a hard crash, I just get a little bit tired.
I also don\u2019t feel any of the tingling or itching from the beta-alanine, but that\u2019s probably because I halve the serving.
So overall happy with the effect, just not super thrilled about the crash at the end.
- Ingredients: 4/5
This pre-workout is one of the best mixers I\u2019ve tried. Usually there\u2019s a bunch of residue at the bottom of my shaker from the creatine or other ingredients, but this one mixes very well\u2026that might be a bit of a con though because it\u2019s missing ingredients you tend to see in other pre-workouts.
As an example, it doesn\u2019t have any creatine in it, and for the price, it really is lacking ingredients you can find in competing products at the same or lower price point.
- Value: 4/5
I almost gave this a 3 because the cost to ingredients to servings ratio is not great. You can get other pre workouts at the same or cheaper price for more servings and more ingredients per serving. However, I tend to purchase those other ingredients individually (like creatine) so it doesn\u2019t matter too much to me. Also, the taste is so delicious that it makes up for it, at least for me personally. Up to you whether that\u2019s enough to pay the extra $$ though.

Honestly, a 99% discount would have not been enough. The main body is made from low quality plastic. I suspect this was chosen as compensation for the rather cheap internal components. Typically, you will find that in order to reduce size and weight of electronics, you must use more expensive metals and base board components. These devices went with larger, heavier internals and had to utilize the thin external case. This also had an effect on the fit and finish of the product. It almost seems that these devices were made by hand. Not experienced hands but shaky, clumsy hands that you might expect belong to uncoordinated and underfed pre-teenagers.
The volume control knob on one device would rotate freely without any resistance which resulted in gravity alone being able to adjust the volume. If you turn or nod your head, the volume might shift. The other device was the exact opposite. It required some considerable effort to adjust. The power switch on both devices felt loose in the frame and as a result either device might turn off because the switch slid down from the on position without being directly manipulated. This also meant that when sliding the device into the charging slot, the power button might be shifted up into the on position. This, we discovered resulted in a longer charging period as the device is discharging the battery at a rate that almost exceeds the charging capacity.
Finally, does the device at least amplify sound as stated in the description. Yes, the device amplifies sound. All sound. Background noise is amplified at an equal level to speech, music, and any other sound. Add to this the fact that because of the poor engineering, low quality components and shoddy manufacturing the device introduces a rather noticeable and annoying hiss that overrides any potentially beneficial effect of the amplification.
I do not recommend that anyone purchase this device from any source or vendor. Take the $54 and buy a megaphone to give to your family. Or perhaps you might be better off using the $54 to buy lotto tickets as an investment in good quality hearing aids. Another option might be to roll the money up in a tube and have others shout through the tube while pointing the open end directly at one of your ears.", "label": 0}

There seems to be some confusion among reviewers as to its functionality. Reviewers have commented on the fact that the pressure in the cuff is raised, rather than lowered after pumping the cuff up to a pressure that\u2019s above any possible systolic pressure, as other sphygmomanometers employ. The technique of lowering the cuff pressure while listening with a stethoscope or microphone for the Korotkoff sounds (those tapping and squishing sounds in the brachial artery) suffers from serious imprecision. Nurses have a lot of practice listening to those sounds as they lower the cuff pressure, but unfortunately they often practice an irreproducible technique, even after years of experience, and they often rush the measurement, knowing that they will only be able to get a ball park reading anyhow. To avoid those inaccuracies, a newer measurement technique has been developed in which oscillations in cuff pressure are measured and analyzed algorithmically. The amplitude of these oscillations is only a few mmHg, so they\u2019re insensible. The problem is that the algorithms are proprietary and secret (although there is at least one that is open source). Using this measurement method, the cuff pressure trend can either be falling or rising, it only has to span the mean arterial pressure between systolic and diastolic, but a combination of Korotkoff sounds and pressure oscillations can also be incorporated in the algorithm. Microlife seems to think that they can produce less annoying pressure of the cuff by their method of raising the pressure in small increments and using oscillometric measurement; in my experience it\u2019s not a big comfort difference, but the results are accurate.
So how do I like the unit? It\u2019s great. It\u2019s easy to use; it\u2019s portable or can run off the included wall wart; and it can keep the last 99 measurements with time and date for two people. It can report either a single routine or take three measurements and average them (the preferred option and the one most researchers use). It can report but not analyze irregular heart beats. And it exactly matches the unit in my cardiologist\u2019s office; he thinks it may actually be better.", "label": 1}

I compared this Sport Go to the leading-brand sports drink starting w "G" that I often have on hand. The G contained artificial colors and natural and artificial flavors, whereas the Sport Go had only natural flavors,but also contained aspartame (the blue pack sweetener on tables at restaurants). G contained 27.5 grams Total Carbs (22 grams in my 12 oz G bottle increased 1/4 to account for the 16 oz comparison) vs. Sport Go's 36 g. G contained 100 cal (80 cal x 1.25) vs. Sport Go's 150 cal. G had about 26g sugar (21g x 1.25) vs. Sport Go's 7g. Sport Go contains several other electrolyes and minerals missing from the G, however, including Magnesium and Calcium.
Overall, depending on what you are looking for, this Sport Go is a multi-mineral electrolyte drink that tastes great (diluted for me), and will provide a good supplement for your heavy sport activities, without unnecessary artificial colors or flavors.

Utilities say \"Flushable\" personal wipes clog sewer systems
for the full story:
[...]
Next time you go to toss that \"flushable\" wipe in the toilet, you might want to consider a request from your sewer utility: Don't.
Sewer agencies across the country say the rapidly growing use of pre-moistened \"personal\" wipes -- used most often by potty-training toddlers and people seeking what's advertised as a more \"thorough\" cleaning than toilet paper -- are clogging pipes and jamming pumps.
Utilities struggling with aging infrastructure have wrestled for years with the problem of \"ragging\" -- when baby wipes, dental floss, paper towels and other items not designed for flushing entangle sewer pumps.
The latest menace, officials say, is that wipes and other products, including pop-off scrubbers on toilet-cleaning wands, are increasingly being marketed as \"flushable.\" Even ever-thickening, super-soft toilet paper is worrisome because it takes longer to disintegrate, some say.
\"Just because you can flush it doesn't mean you should,\" said I.J. Hudson, a spokesman for the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission, which handles sewage for 1.8 million Maryland residents in Montgomery and Prince George's counties.
The result: Utility officials say crews needed for less preventable sewer maintenance and repairs are being deployed instead to patrol for wipes.

Truly a blessing and a curse, because finding good loofahs on Amazon is like searching for a needle in a haystack. Thousands of different options, many of which claim to be high-quality but ultimately can't deliver. Recently I took a chance on this loofah 4-pack with hardly any reviews, and I'm so glad I did! Now I had never heard of Tobyan before until I came across this product, but it doesn't even matter. They make one hell of a loofah! The texture is soft, the mesh is dense, and they are all tightly packed with sturdy knots. Best part is, the quality is carried through the entire 4-pack, not just 1 or 2 good ones. The last time I found a good loofah multi-pack on Amazon (Novosun brand), the product quality was totally different when it came time to re-purchase them. Due to my paranoia, I promptly ordered a second Tobyan 4-pack and they're just as awesome as the first pack. I am still currently on my first loofah and there are zero signs of it coming apart after a week+ of usage. Now one thing that many reviewers here on Amazon don't seem to grasp is that it is recommended that you replace your loofah once every month-or-so. Even though we are covering these in soap they still retain bacteria. Any more than a month-and-a-half of usage and you're just going to end up covering yourself in your own grime. If you can make your loofah last a year, good for you! You just admitted to everyone reading your review that you have questionable standards in cleanliness.
Bottom line: Buy this 4-pack. They are soft, dense, sturdy, and look awesome! The price-to-quality value here is excellent and you will not be disappointed :)", "label": 1}

The sound is so soothing. It's hanging in my back yard with my all my colorful hanging plants. At first, when I moved around with it in my hand it almost sounded to load and I was starting to doubt if it was something I would become irritated about later on. But once I got I up and hanging, the light wind blows made it sound so fine, really love this! I love walking in and out of the door just hear the music, it's like therapy to me This is by far one of the best quality wind chimes that I have ever seen!

This product may work IF you have blood sugar or pain issues, BUT one reason it may work is that it is retarding your food intake and calories of other foods. You can definitely control blood sugars naturally with much tastier foods and exercise... seriously, check-out mendosa.com ...he is a science writer that focuses on his Diabetes type 2 using nutrition, diet, exercise to control it, for example, on his website find the list of foods to take using the Glycemic Index, etc. Humans do not naturally want to eat this Nopal Cactus in this form, so why take it? There are far better alternatives except for the maybe LESS THAN ONE PERCENT of you that may derive a unique health benefit from using this Nopal Powder vs other more palatable ways of curing your health problem. It is a very expensive \"fiber\" or \"food supplement\" unless you really need it. You need to check your blood sugar levels with a meter to truly know if this helps or not vs other options of control. As for pain, well that is a sensation only you can know. Good luck... :)
Oh, btw, from Mendosa's website: \"After all, the glycemic index includes several others foods that have only a minimal impact on blood glucose. Nopal (prickly pear cactus) has a glycemic index of 7 (where glucose = 100). The mean of two studies of chana dal is 8.\" <--- PLEASE note Chana Dal is almost equal to Nopal (8 vs 7)... Chana Dal is inexpensive and is an absolutely delicious food (or ingredient component) that has so many uses for a wide variety of delicious recipes. My point is, there are probably much better tasting and lower cost healthy food/nutrition choices that are much better tasting and edible than using Nopal powder. Also, you should be drinking a lot of liquids if taking Nopal powder to prevent slow digestion and/or constipation w/dryness of stools.", "label": 0}

I feel less pain in my knees and lower back, especially near the end of the day, after I've been on my feet all day.
These insoles are semi-rigid, thanks to the black-color hard material (on the bottom of the insole) that spans the region from the heel to the middle of the foot. The arch part bends, yet is firm. Leaving the insole on the table, I can press the arch area flat to the surface, but when I release pressure, the arch rises back to its original shape.
This is one of the best features of this insole.
At the bottom of the insole, at the heel area, is an oval-shaped heel pad (measuring 1-3/4 inches long x 1 inch wide at its widest width). I would have preferred for this heel pad to be larger to provide better shock absorption for the entire heel. This oval shape does not provide padding for my entire heel.
I do like the heel cup area, as the edges are nicely raised, and my heels fit well within the depths of this heel area.
I would have liked for the front of the insole (which I measure to be 3/16 inches thick) to have a slightly thicker padding.
I measure the length of the insole (from back of heel to tip of toe) to be 10-1/4\" inches.
I wear a size 8 men's shoes.
I removed the old shoes' insoles, put them on top of these longer EverHealth Orthotic insoles, and cut off the very tips of the new insoles to the same size as the old insoles. It fit well inside my shoes.
Overall, these insoles work much better at providing comfort for my feet/knees/back than the regular insoles that came with the shoes I bought.", "label": 1}

I recommend heating up the solution to clean your glass, keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't boil over; or rather, heat up the solution in the microwave just until it starts to bubble. You also don\u2019t need salt, or need to shake it up. Just let it sit for 30 seconds to 3 min, and your glass will be spotless. You can repeat as many times as needed. I use this in combination with 99% Isopropyl Alcohol (ISO) for a clean that\u2019s so clean, it\u2019s safe to fly with. I usually use ISO first, then finish with the DC glass cleaner, and save it to re-use it again. For travel I do the same first two steps, but I hit it with the ISO again after the DC glass cleaner, save the rest of the ISO for another time, and then let whatever is left evaporate. This ends up giving you zero water spots.
For nails, just make sure the nail isn\u2019t super hot, if the nail is still too hot, it can and *will stain your quartz. You want the nail to be hot, but not so hot that the cleaner will evaporate (that\u2019s when it leaves stains.) Qtip tech regularly, then hit it with the clean end with a small amount of DC glass cleaner on the Qtip, if you need you can always hit with the dry side of a fresh Qtip.

Sometimes once is good, other times I\u2019ll do it 3 times in a row if I got nail a little too hot.

Well, I purchased this sea to summit toiletry kit in large and debated doing so. I try to minimize anything that I use for traveling and every ounce counts. I'm glad I purchased the large size now as it squishes down and reduces its size if not completely full, so it really doesn't take up much space if you don't fill it up, but its great that its large so if/when you need to bring along more items, like on a car trip you have the room! I'm not sure why people downgrade the included "mirror"? I find it just find. Maybe they didn't peel off the protective coating? Not sure, but it works just fine for me for traveling. Who needs a full size mirror in their carryon? The small plastic hook isn't an issue for me either, like one of the other reviewers indicated, just use a piece of string or old shoe lace to attach it to large poles. I tried using this in my bathroom and found many attachment points including the knobs on cabinets. So, thats a mute point for me. And the hook on the Rick Steves bag was TOO big and made of metal and was definitely pointed out by many reviewers but it wasn't an issue with me, the quality of the bag was my issue. So, if you're looking for a lightweight "durable" toiletry bag, I would highly consider this sea to summit version. And if you're looking to pay less, check back often for used/like new bags in amazon warehouse deals. Mine came with manufacturing packaging and labels and never used.
I would like to add that the large exterior zipper compartment is great for when you need to put a few items that you might need to retrieve while in travel mode without opening the entire bag, like a small bottle of lotion, floss sticks, toothbrush/paste or some wet wipes etc. I really like that feature.", "label": 1}

I consider myself a biohacker and I am in tune with how my body responds. Perhaps the effect is masked by all the other supplements and peptides I take. I tried to isolate the effect from my other supplements and energy drinks. I tried taking more than the recommended dose, taking it spread throughout the day, taking it in the evening, in addition to recommended three pills at once.
If this supplement does anything, it is too subtle for me to notice. Some supplements and medications take time to build up before their effect becomes noticeable, but I did not notice anything from this at any time during the month. I was hoping this would work since the company seems well-intentioned with a belief that what they are selling works.
This is clearly not a stimulant. Anything that is a stimulant is more immediately effective than this product.
The clinical trials are meaningless if they used a placebo as a comparison. They should be comparing competing products, such as caffeine, Adderall, Ritalin, and Modafinil. All of these competing drugs are less expensive than this supplement, excluding the cost of the doctor's visit to get the prescription. The real challenge for supplements like these is how it stacks up against caffeine, or a Monster Energy Drink, not a sugar pill.
People that are avoiding stimulants are not going to eat cocoons either. Products like this target the fringe of biohackers, who already take numerous other supplements and are not nutrient deficient in anything. The target audience is different from a clinical trial group.
The main compound adding to the cost is the peptide. For brain-enhancing peptides, Semax and Cerebrolysin are established, proven, and scientifically validated peptides, and both work great in me and have noticeable effects. I am not sure what cocoon peptide is supposed to do and the Web site of the vendor does not mention how it works. What is the mechanism of action? The other peptides I mentioned increase BDNF levels and are less expensive than this product.
I am a man in my 40s and I have tried a large number of supplements, nootropics, medications, and peptides to help increase productivity, focus, and mental performance.
The money-back-guarantee helps for a product like this, but it seems like you will need to take a test at the start of the 30 days to activate the offer.", "label": 0}

And I just now received and put these on. Normally I wait a bit before I review a product, but my initial impressions are strong enough that I wanted to rave/post about this product already, about how much I like it so far.
I am a nurse (currently working part-time while in grad school). And for one thing, I love the look of this product. The socks look sleek and rather classy overall. And stylistically, they actually LOOK like they could be for athletics but don't have to be used only for sports participation.
Second, putting them on, they are helping my feet to feel better currently already. I don't have a work day today but did work most of the weekend, and my feet were hurting quite a bit last night soon after I finished working, when I was just starting to relax (or try to relax). They felt better by the morning, but I think that it still happens to be good timing that these socks arrived today.
On another note, regarding price: So many socks these days seem expensive, whether they are compression socks or not. For most of them out there, I don't think that the full, regular retail prices tend to be worth the prices (not for the potential of getting a second pair for oneself or another, at least). To some degree, to be honest, that may be slightly the case with some other Kunto products out there. (Maybe. I'm not sure, mind you, because personally I haven't had as much need of some of the other types of Kunto products out there.) But for me and probably many others, these compression socks do feel worth paying a bit extra compared to non-compression socks at least, for sure. Truly.
So while it is early to say, I am loving these socks so far. I guess that one thing for people to bear in mind is that the socks are pretty warm. So I could imagine some individuals not realizing that when ordering them and then complaining about it. But if compression socks being warm is okay or even good for you/others (I personally like warm socks sometimes on days that I'm not working and/or during cold seasons)...Then these could be socks that would be of benefit for you/your others.
Oh, the socks definitely do extend up to the knees, by the way. Fyi for any person/s unsure of the length based on the photo or something.", "label": 1}

I wear bifocals and have very dry eyes. When i was offered the opportunity to try Eye Vitamin Ultra at a generous discount, I was quite pleased to be able to. Not only does it have lutein and bilberry, it also contains vitamin A, (needed for night vision at 500 % of the recommended daily allowance,) zinc, grape seed, L-taurine (an amino acid that helps with retina health), quercetin (used for cataract and blood vessel health in relation to the eye), and NAC. I have used NAC in the past for detoxification but was unaware it would be helpful for vision.
N-Acetylcysteine is a metabolite of cysteine, a non-essential amino acid that is both found in foods and synthesized by the body from the amino acid methionine. In the body, NAC is rapidly broken down into glutathione, a powerful antioxidant that detoxifies harmful chemicals into less damaging compounds. NAC supplements are taken to help protect the body against a wide array of environmental pollutants Some people experience nausea using NAC.
Eye Vitamin capsules also contain gelatin, silicone dioxide and magnesium stearate. Directions are to take two capsules daily preferably with meals or as directed by your health care professional. The bottle cautions if you have a medical condition consult a physician before you use this or any supplement. It is processed in a facility that also processes the common food allergens: soy, wheat, dairy, nuts, egg, fish, shellfish. Capsules are rather large, twenty three millimeters long and seven millimeters wide but they slide down easily.
I have been using this product for eighteen days now. It has more ingredients to support eye health than other products I have used in the past. I spend a lot of time in front of a computer and I have definitely noticed my eyes are not as dry which I attribute to Eye Vitamin. I have had no side effects.

I've always slept better during storms and it's nice to be able to hear one anytime I'd like. The ocean is also very pleasant and it does remind me of a day at the beach and I also like the brook, but have to admit that it makes me have to go to the bathroom more often. (Just a heads up lol) I'm not sure I could sleep to the birds, I associate birds more with waking up I guess, but I do like the sound. As far as the lullabies go, they are nice but they are not my cup of tea, although I can see how they might be a good choice for an infant. The sounds are all very clear and it's easy to tell what they are supposed to be, and the volume can be turned up much louder than I expected. It actually gets quite loud. If this was priced a little lower, I would have easily given it 5 stars, but for the price they are asking, I just don't think it competes since it has too few choices compared to others in that price range.

I found this pump by accident, I was looking for another brand that was recommended to me. And after I read some reviews I decided to give it a go.
First things first, my momcozy cups work with this so I have extra pieces now... yay! Second, 1 motor controls both sides which I find so helpful. I haven't used the highest setting (16) but the fact that I have so many levels is great as I would use my old pumps and have it at max and still not be removing the milk (there was no discomfort on the highest level the suction just wasn't doing it for me). I found that I get the most milk when I leave it in massage mode for 6 minutes and switch to express mode for 4 minutes depending on how my breasts feel I repeat for another 10 minutes (massage mode 6 minutes then express mode 4 minutes).
It was nicely packaged and I like the little box to hold the tubing. I would definitely recommend this to anyone for themself or as a gift. And I would say to play around with the settings. What works for you might not be the \"norm\" but if it works it works! I first used the auto express mode which is pretty cool and let it run till I felt discomfort and switched to express mode and used the previous level (i.e. level 6 if I felt discomfort at level 7 in auto express mode) then I figured out what worked best for me.

The second reason I purchased these grinders is to avoid the mess most grinders leave on counters after you use them. I love how these keep your counters clean because they are inverted. The grinder mechanism is on the top, hidden under the lid (which I think is meant to keep out the moisture too), and you turn them over when you grind your salt or pepper over your food. Such an ingenious design! Really solves the problem, finally.
I was really surprised at how substantial they felt when I took them out of the box. The glass is solid and clearly durable. You can tell they are going to last. They are quite large too. For a normal user who wants to fill the grinders the least amount of ties as possible, these are for you. For me, I change my salts and peppers often, so this did not benefit me as much.
The salts look great in the glass globes too. The color of the stainless steel (which is top notch) compliments the colors of the sea salts in the glass. It all creates a really impressive presentation in my kitchen and on the table. I have received several compliments from those looking at the grinders and those using them.
Speaking of using them, they are super easy to turn. It is effortless to turn and grind the three kinds of sea salts I have used thus far. There is an adjustable grinder mechanism under the lid for those that like coarse or fine grinds of salt or pepper.

I was very disappointed to learn that this Vitamin D3 is synthetic and synthetic vitamins are not good for the body, so I can not recommend this vitamin d3! Synthetic sources of vitamin D3 are irradiated ergosterol (yeast) and cholecalciferol. Cholecalciferol is produced industrially by the irradiation of 7-dehydrocholesterol extracted from lanolin found in sheep's wool. Synthetic Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) causes hypercalcaemia which is defined as abnormally elevated calcium levels in the blood resulting in cardiac arrhythmias, and then death, also because hypercalcaemia through Synthetic Vitamin D3 metabolism causes a Magnesium deficiency in your body.
Other Side Effects of hypercalcaemia include Constipation, Kidney Stones, Flatulence, Stomach Problems, Plaque in Arteries, Risk of Prostate Cancer, Calcium Toxicity, Interactions with Medicines, Dry mouth, confusion, severe fatigue, nausea, digestion problems, dizziness and even seizures.
Vitamin D3 does have powerful health promoting properties. Vitamin D helps to lower inflammation, which could prevent chronic disease and stimulate your immune response system! Getting enough Vitamin D can help reduce cardiovascular health and body fat. Having low levels of Vitamin D can increase risk of bladder cancer up to 600 percent! You could consider that Vitamin D3 is more of a hormone, that a vitamin. Creighton University School of Medicine conducted a study that revealed that supplementing with Vitamin D and calcium can reduce the risk of cancer by a surprising 77 percent!
With all the research I've done on Vitamin D/D3, it's very impressive on what Vitamin D3 can do for your body. I take 10,000 IU per day and I wouldn't go a day without it! Vitamin D3 is a vitamin that everybody should include in their daily regimen.

I used my center console in my car for a while, but that just means 80% of the time I was walking back to my car when I remembered that I needed a mask. I thought about my pocket, but don\u2019t really want to breathe through pocket litter residue. It wasn\u2019t until I saw a football game and the coaching staff had masks with a \u201ccroakie\u201d for lack of a better term. Because I do have a large head, I bought the XL\u2019s.
The way this mask works is that the neck and ear pieces are connected. The mask and keeper can be pulled over any head or hair style without a lot of fuss. Then when you are ready to put the mask on you grab the keeper and get some slack which goes behind the ears, tug the keeper til it\u2019s tight and mask is in place.
In all this mask, has the tapered cut at the nose and plenty of coverage. If there is one flaw it is that it never seems tight enough. It doesn\u2019t fall off or anything, but it feels like it might. While this is slightly annoying, have the mask hanging around your neck, always ready to use makes up for the fit. If you wear glasses, there is enough fabric that you can bring it up over your nose and then let your glasses sit on the fabric. This does two things- eliminates fogging and helps you feel like the mask is snug.
If you have a large head, can\u2019t keep up with or forget your mask, then I highly recommend this style of mask. I have not tried others like this, so the 4 may be unfair. I just think the construction could be improved upon slightly and make the perfect mask - if there is such a thing.", "label": 1}

The actual energy draw is 98-99 Watts from the wall. The RED LEDS draw about 65Watts and the IR 33 Watts. These LEDS are BRIGHT, efficient and the beam is tightly focused as each light uses 60 Lenses with 120 total LEDS . You could mount two of these from a 8 foot ceiling and each beam would be a about 2 feet by 3.5 feet at beam height so you could make 2 x 7 foot pattern on your bed to lay under with almost no spillover. The beam is very collimated compared to my other RED/IR lights.
These units come with a nice stainless door holder, a rope and pulley and a 4 point stainless steel wire that allows it to be hung vertically from the celling. They do have a very quite fan, they do get nice and warm but not too hot. The only time they would get too hot is if you block the fan opening! The temp is perfect for me as I place these against my skin and they warm you up without getting too hot even after 30 minutes of use. These have digital timers that can be set from 5-30 minutes. The construction is pretty solid. The electronics layout is VERY good.
The only fault I found is the grounding isolation. It works perfectly if you use the Grounded 3 wire plug. If you use two units and don\u2019t have a properly grounded extension cord about 50 volts will flow between the two units and it\u2019s enough to feel it if your touching both units at the same time. The cases of these are grounded so as long as you have a grounded outlet the voltage will be zero.
If you're curious how these stack up to the high end Joovv Red Light Therapy devices. The Joovv mini draws 105Watts from the wall and Costs $895. This one draws 98 Watts and is 1/6th the price. The LEDS are actually lightly brighter than the Joovv mini. I own a integrating photometric sphere and some lux meters that are capable of measuring RED and IR wavelengths. I would say these are the perfect alternatives to the Joovv\u2019s if your on a budget as they are about 6 times cheaper per lumen of light.", "label": 1}

It doesn't say anywhere that I shouldn't use it in a bubble bath so I tried it. It moves the water around and is relatively quiet compared to an actually spa tub. Be warned though, this isn't a powerful jet that is going to massage your back or anything. It just bubbles the water around the tub in a gentle motion. For $40-$50 bucks, I love it.
One design flaw I found is that the suction cups are spaced too close together and are difficult to mount without them overlapping. One of them fell off but was easy to reattach. There is a push lock that holds the cups in place meaning in the future, I can probably replace the cups if they wear out.
My biggest concern was safety. I didn't want to electrocute myself in the bathtub with this thing so I read up on this product before trying it out. The device plugs into a transformer that reduces the voltage to only 12 volts so even if the entire device falls into the water, it isn't going to hurt you. Also, the device is capable of being submerged momentarily in case it falls into the water. The instructions say to pull it out and let the water drip out before remounting and turning back on. It's that simple. It suggests to hang the device out to dry for 24 hours if it gets submerged for longer than 5 minutes but since you aren't supposed to leave this item unattended, that shouldn't be an issue. I feel this product is very safe.
As I mentioned above, I used this to try and keep my bubble bath bubbly and it worked! I wondered how much it was helping and decided to test it by turning it on after letting the bubbles break down. Within a few minutes I saw impressive amounts of suds starting to mound up again.
Remember, it just pushes water around and makes bubbles. If you want real bath jets, you need a professional spa tub. As long as you manage your expectations, you will like this little spa jet.", "label": 1}

The product comes with disclaimers warning against seizures for those who are prone (I am not), but there is no warning about tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and so I feel compelled to issue one here should anyone else be subject to this symptom. I'm worried enough about it that I've already booked an appointment with a neurologist to get a brain map done in hopes of finding a countervailing frequency that can remedy this awful ringing in my head. I noticed this effect almost immediately and should have heeded it; should this happen to you, do yourself a favor and discontinue use at once!
On top of this, the charging cable has a short in it and the unit cannot be reliably charged, so I am returning it based on this alone. If only that were my only issue! Be forewarned.

Original Review:
I suppose this does what it says it will do: it plays an audible tone (maybe 1khz?) pulsing at 40 cycles per second. It looks like a tiny (one inch square) ipod player, replete with standard headphone jack, usb micro port, and a mini SD card. For some reason, they include ear buds with the unit; I'd have preferred they saved the money on the buds (which are common enough) and spent a bit more on the quality of the unit. I'm tempted to see if I can transfer whatever audio file is on the SD card to my phone. Or just download a binaural brain app that will play the same cycles... but typically, a gamma wave of 40 hz is inaudible. I'm assuming the 1khz tone cycled 40 times per second matches what was performed in the gamma wave entrainment studies.
I plan to use this nightly along with the 40hz lights to see if it has any noticeable affect on my cognitive state. Time will tell.", "label": 0}

I had wanted a robot helper around the house while I was at, and I had high hopes that the machine would eliminate or at least reduce the frequency with which I had to vacuum the house manually. Unfortunately this unit suffers in a number of areas: set up was not as intuitive as it should be, the Bluetooth connection worked only sporadically, and worst of all the device was completely unable to navigate over area rugs and easily became hung up on objects.
The quick start guide on the box seems deceptively simple. Simply find an open stretch of wall for the charging base, turn the unit on, and let it charge till ready. The blinking light indicates charging...until it stops blinking. Powering it on resulted in the unit backing up, beeping, and returning to the base to charge. Sometimes pressing the top power button results in a squawking beep and refusal to move. After much trial and error, the unit did start vacuuming on its own.
I had hoped the Bluetooth connection would help with the lack of feedback from the unit itself. However the Hoover app doesn't seem to work well. I selected the model, and the app searches for nearby robots....and searches...and searches... The Hoover app did not find the robot most of the time.
These little inconveniences could be overlooked if the robot worked when it got going. Unfortunately the area rugs for certain parts of my hardwood floors were insurmountable objects. Worse, the little robot would get part way onto the rug and become stuck rather that backing up or realizing it couldn't mount the rug. Manually placing the robot on the carpet, the robot will vacuum; however, it becomes easily stuck on furniture.
At this point I have to give this unit a 2-star rating: I don't like it. If I wanted someone to refuse to vacuum and squawk at me when I ask it to work, I'd try to make the kids vacuum.", "label": 0}

First off, it comes with a body attachment and a lot of different heads, which is very nice. It also comes with a pink carrying bag. This was a great thought and is very appreciated even though it isn't the most attractive bag I've ever seen.
At first I was immediately disappointed with the product. The battery cover is difficult to open, and the head really isn't that strong. It seems like with any pressure at all it will stop rotating. I can't use this on my body with the wider body-brush attachment because of this. It just doesn't seem like it does much. The 'makeup' pad I tried out and just felt very weird, lol. I'm not a fan but maybe someone else would enjoy putting on/taking off makeup that way. The exfoliating head will MESS YOU UP. It doesn't play around and you don't need much pressure to get that to work on your skin. It feels like sandpaper being rubbed all over. Using it lightly is really recommended, especially on areas with thinner skin. The massage head with the rollers is the most 100% useless one. Like I said before, pretty much any pressure makes the head stop rotating. So if you try to use the massage head, it just will sit there. You might as well just take it in your had and rub it on yourself. The main head (for me), the actual facial cleaning one, is overall decent. I feel it does alright and, after a bit of trial and error, have found a balanced routine and end up enjoying the product.
Overall, I'm sure there are better ones out there but this is a pretty good starter kit.
EDIT: I was contacted by the company and they were extremely nice. They said they would make it so that the next 'batch' will have more of a resistance and won't stop working under so little pressure. They also are sending me a set of replacement heads, which is very sweet. Really great company!", "label": 1}

The good news, well, there's lots: the build really exceeds my expectations, as does the design. I think in terms of the thought that went into design and the care into the build, this table is a BARGAIN!. I just had a massage today and I WISH her table had an adjustable head cradle like this one! I feel quite uncomfortable unless I can tilt the cradle down a bit, and it's nothing to accomplish that on this one. The table is also quite attractive in a no-nonsense kind of way. The blue padded top is a might bit clinical, but that is offset by the very nice wooden legs.
This is a very strong table! I weight 260, and when I get on this thing it doesn't budge a bit! Solid as a rock!
The 'extras'? Well, I haven't listened to the music yet. The bolster is functional, covered by the same blue stuff as the cradle and the table. It's not PVC, but it's PVC-like, or Naugahyde-like. Stinks a bit - but I'm sure that'll dissipate after a few days of airing out. The carrying bag is very basic canvas, with outside pockets. Nothing special. However, the cradle can fit inside the table when it's folded. Not sure about the bolster.
The bad news? Heavy! This thing is a beast! They say 35 LBS. Well, maybe. I haven't weighed it, but it's heavy. So, if you work out of one or two offices, or out of your house, this table is a great bargain and seems built to give years and years and years of service (and comes with a lifetime warrantee). But if you travel to massage/therapy gigs, I wouldn't advise this table unless you want transporting it to be part of your workout regimen. Sure you can pack it in the bag and sling the strap over your shoulder - and your shoulder and neck will let you know after you've walked a block or two. You don't want to need a massage after giving one, so don't use this as your travel table.
But what intelligent design and kick-ass construction. It will last, and two elephants could probably mate on top of it without making a squeak (well, the elephants might, but not the table!)", "label": 1}

I have enough experiences with both genuine name brands and knock-offs and honestly i'd not expect them to perform at same level. It's a matter of reaching the right balance in terms of value. Say if a knock-off performs at 60% of the brand name product but only cost 1/3 or less of the latter, I would call it a good buy. Since I am used to clarisonic cleaning, this facial cleanser was way too gentle/soft for me when i tried the first time, I was convinced that this was useless and i was gonna return it, but then once i finished washing my face with it, I had to say it definitely felt much cleaner than a simple towel wash! So it was doing some sonic cleansing job after all even though the vibration was very mild comparing to Clarisonic. The weak link of this product is its charging base. Even after a few days of using it a couple of times a day between washing and massaging, the unit would only charge for one minute and then stop charging. I contacted the customer service, who is very responsive and told me that the product arrives charged and the charging indicator light will turn off when it's fully charged. So it's a bit hard to tell if my unit has a defective charging base and will find out if it holds a steady charge once its power significantly drained. Also it takes some practice/nudging to find a secure charging contact point with the charging base, the unit is probably not waterproof but water resistant as it's not seamless, there is a fine slit line at the bottom. I think it's safe to use in the shower but as instructed do not soak in water. All in all, this is a good product if the charging base turns out okay which I will update in due time. I wouldn't know if it performs just as well as a genuine Foreo as I don't own a Foreo but it does complement with Clarisonic brush which is not meant to use daily.", "label": 1}

I am impressed with the product and grateful that I made this investment. The bottom line of this review: these pads are comfortable, absorbent, and discreet. Caring for them does take additional effort, but is worth it to preserve the quality of the pads. (I'll detail my care steps below.)
Prior to using thinkECO, I almost exclusively used Always brand ultra thin or infinity pads. I first purchased the thinkECO day pad three-pack to \"test them out.\" After using them (in conjunction with my remaining disposable pads) for two cycles, I decided to invest in a \"set.\" I was impressed with their performance and the fact that I did not notice I was wearing the pads. They are very absorbent, yet thin enough that they do not bunch-up. I purchased a set of 5 liners, 3 day pads, 5 day pad plus, 3 night pads, and 3 night pad plus. My periods are typically 5-7 days, with 2-3 days of heavy bleeding. So far this has been the right amount of pads for my need. If you use Always ultra thin pads, I would compare the the thinkECO to these sizes: Pink (slender) and Yellow (1) - day pad, Green (2) and Blue (3) - day pad plus, Orange (4) - night pad, and Purple (5) - night pad plus.
READ THE CARE INSTRUCTIONS. I read some reviews prior to purchasing that individuals were upset because the pads shrank in the dryer. The instructions plainly state this may happen. Make sure you let them AIR DRY, every time. I washed all of my pads in cold water with a fragrance-free detergent on the delicate cycle and let them air dry prior to wearing. When actually using the pads, I rinse them in cold water after wearing, then put them in a glass soaking pail with cold water and Borax. This water does get a bit stinky, so I change it out at least every-other day. When my period is done, I dump all of the pads and the dirty water in the washing machine and run a cold, delicate cycle with Borax and detergent. After washing, I stretch them (they don't need much, but pull length- and width-wise) and put them on a drying rack.", "label": 1}

But my trays were wearing out after several years of use and I decided to give this a try. I like the small daily \u201cpods\u201d of am/pm. One thing I really like is I don\u2019t have to fish the tiny pills out of the container, I can just pour them all directly in my mouth, something that\u2019s not really possible with even the weekly sorters. Having them as individual days also allows you to customize your sorter. Here\u2019s my best tips.
Pick a day of the week that you\u2019d like to start on. I like to refill on Sunday night so I start my month with the 1st Monday of the month. (See photo of June 2019 starting on Monday the 3rd.)
Label the days of the week along the edge of the white tray.
Since the white tray the daily boxes sit in 8 across and only 4 rows, every month but February will leave you with pods that need to go in the 8th slot. I have them running back up the side with the smiley extras box at the top. If it\u2019s only a 30 day month I put the 31 upside down before the smiley box. (See photo)
Decide on how you want to deal with the daily boxes when you\u2019ve taken that days meds. I have tried 2 ways. The first was to turn the box over so the date no longer showed so I knew my next box was the next one with a date showing. The method I ended up with was putting the empties in basket I keep all my bottles in. Makes it easier to tell on a pre-coffee morning with no glasses on.
I hope this helps you! My cat apparently thought so too when she decided to lay down in the middle of my shot. Oh and I\u2019m not missing a box it was out of the frame, probably under the cat.", "label": 1}

For that purpose it's been pretty great. It's designed to simulate dawn over a thirty-minute period - so if you set your alarm at 7:15 it will switch on to a dim setting at 6:45 and gradually increase to full power.
The first few weeks this was maybe over-effective - I would wake up 10 to 15 minutes into the simulated dawn. But even though I didn't get those extra 20 minutes of sleep, I did find it easier to get out of bed. It's a much more natural way to rouse than an alarm clock, and that's what I was looking for. I do think my body has started adjusting from that honeymoon period, but it's still nice to feel like I'm easing out of sleep, not jolting.
Several reviewers have commented on the poor interface and complexity of programming the lamp, but I don't find it too bothersome. Yes, it is more complicated than it probably needs to be - and if that's going to frustrate you, you may want to go in another direction. (I'm flashing back now to the early 2000s, when I futilely wrote out instructions for my parents explaining why changing the channel on the TV set was not the same as changing the channel on the digital cable box.) More irksome have been the repeated emails soliciting a review of this product - but here I am, so I guess that (like the lamp) served its purpose.
In the end, I award 4 stars because this really is the best tool I've found for waking up in a city whose winter rivals Westeros in length and intensity. Oh, also the "night" setting makes for a nice, gentle reading lamp. It's not a perfect score because it's not perfect: as you can see it's not going to be the most attractive light fixture in your domicile.

I will follow the exercises in a sequence. I only gave the four stars because the arm stretches. I did not have a wall to do them on and wished some stretches were shown that you could do without a wall. I found a wall downstair and the stretches really do open up. I even did the side stretch correctly and one shoulder was higher than the other. I reviewed the core tonight and found that there is a way to exercise the core and not to use the transverse abdominal muscle and overwork it. I was so glad to have this information correctly, as I was tired of the Y because I was getting so many instructors that did not know how to accurately stretch the body, and ligaments, I know enough about YOGA to know that they were not doing a good sequence flow, and was just doing what they felt like doing. Lie swinging a kettle ball all around. So I dropped out and found these tapes, will work with these at home. Now I understand how I can hold in my gut 24/7 like their name states.
Also, many of my hubby yoga instructors tend to not do poses correctly and do not explain them correctly, I actually learned some new tools, that I will remember like not over flexing the torso area when doing the cat pose. These tapes will teach some things to make a pilates or yoga session more successful.
The tapes have some lessons and instructions, and then the workouts. I would recommend this tape for anyone who needs to learn and understand proper form and function of the joints and ligaments. It is not a high impact workout. It seems slow, but the workout is about 30 minutes for each tape. And it is relaxing enough, you could use the tape as a stress reduction session. I would like to see an advanced tape putting a total body package workout together so that I can have a total body stretch tape at home.", "label": 1}

Let me explain. I have a 2012 Honda Accord Coupe that I really love; it has currently a little less than. 30,000 miles. The only problem with the car is that the driver's seat is uncomfortable. Lower back and leg pain would set in typically after about 20 minutes of driving, and I was on the verge of trading in the car for an SUV at a substantial loss. That prospect did not make me happy. As a last ditch effort, I purchased the Tush Cush with the hope that it would solve my problem. Well, "mission accomplished."
First, the product takes the pressure off of your tail bone by allowing it to float ... The hole in the back of the product that you see in the photo is the key here, and it is quite effective at reducing pain. Second, the product is a wedge that forces your body into a correct seating posture. Again, this helps to reduce or eliminate pain. Also, I found that moving my seat back a bit so that my knees were not bent excessively helped a lot, and changing the angle of my seat from a vertical 90 degrees to a small incline of between 100 and 110 degrees provided much more comfort. Of course, I had tried these methods previously to no avail, but when they were implemented in conjunction with the Tush Cush, the result was quite effective.
This product really works and I am thankful I found it ...my bank account is ecstatic as well. So, if you are at your wits end because of back pain from driving, and are considering getting rid of your vehicle because of it, I recommend that you try the Tush Cush before taking such drastic action. You may just save yourself a huge chunk of change. Also, make sure you get the 16"x13" version as it fits most bucket seats perfectly; it's almost as if the product was made specifically for my car.", "label": 1}

It is still too cold. BUT one thing you NEED to know: It has a hand brake, it works fine, it does NOT have electromagnetic brake that engages like other mobility scooters. When you stop the throttle, it doesn't stop unless you use the hand brake. Disconcerting the first time and it is something I'll have to learn. All my other scooters stopped. Learning curve at 68 lol. I LOVE that it folds up and stands on end for storing it in the house. This can not be beat! All the others I had were just a big THUMB in my living room. Not this one! You can not beat the mileage on this scooter compared to ANY other scooter that isn't the size of a small car. I will update this review when I start my travels. IF the darn weather will get on my side!
EDIT AFTER SCOOTING: Pros: it does go and fast when needed for crossing streets or getting up hills. Very responsive. Cons: Be aware that there is springs on the front wheel (why is beyond me) but there is nothing on the rear. The seat is ultra flat and ultra hard. No dip at all to keep your but centered if you go over areas like uneven sidewalk or the dreaded dips for rain drainage. VERY jolting. I was thrilled that this scooter I could use on sidewalks and not have to worry about no curb cut outs for handicapped people since I could get off, grab the front bar, turn it around and roll it off and cross the street and pop it back up. I'm fairly sure I will have to go back to driving alleys. Really bummed at this. Some kind of spring or even a seat that gives would have made this scooter so much better. I'm 133lbs so not really a light weight at 4'9\" and when I go over things that make the scooter jolt I'm bouncing all over the seat and have to constantly reposition. Other than those cons, I love it more than any of the other 8 scooters I've had over the years. I'll update if I come up with more to say :D", "label": 1}

I only took 2 capsules because I didn't want to take more than 400 mcg of Folic Acid. This page is VERY DECEIVING!!! Today I went searching for better information and the other amazon product page has much more informative reviews. Major quality control issues. Who knows what is actually in these capsules?! I read one review about a chemical smell - and mine smell awful. I thought it was just the kelp ingredient emitting an odour to which I'm not accustomed.

I had an old GE amplified phone that was inadequate for my hearing. I guess it amplified the volume by maybe x2. Also, it had some features that I rarely used. As my hearing got worse I decided to get a new phone. I selected the PhoneMax because it had a standard ringer as an option - I learned by reading other reviews that the Clarity phones (the other option I was considering) only had an amplified ringer (i.e. loud). The phone seemed to have the big feature I needed - more volume. It does have a lot more volume. One possible caution: I think the advertisements say it's got 40 dB amplification, open the users manual and it says 25 dB (as I recall). I don't think the phone delivers 42 dB amplification, but it probably can deliver at least 10 dB and possibly 25 dB - it probably has more than enough for you unless you really, really, really have a hearing problem - I wear hearing aids when I have to, but most of the time I can get by without them, and the phone can supply very much more volume (x10) than I need if I turn the volume all the way up. One other feature is that it amplifies the high frequencies more than the low, so voices sound different on the phone - but you'll likely still be able to recognize who you're talking to. The ringer has 3 levels, off, lo, hi, and also 3 tones (I, II, & III). The volume control is a simple analog rotary dial on the front of the phone - easy to access and easy to change. The phone, and all comparable amplified phones, were kind of costly, in my opinion; on the other hand I think I'll get good use from it for at least 10 years - maybe longer. I recommend it.

Not for planting bulbs, but for putting down 2x2 stakes for sign posts. I wasn't even sure such a product existed. I looked at all the hardware stores, and most didn't have a clue what I was talking about. Finally, one guy said, yeah, it's called a "bulb auger", but we don't carry it. So then I called around to the lawn and garden stores, and none of them had it either. In desperation, I checked on Amazon, and there it was! And at a decent price, too. I must have drilled 200 holes in hard-packed dirt with it over the first week I had it, and it performed amazingly. The cutting edge was dulled and worn down after all this drilling, but no more than I would expect after the workout I put it through. But it still drills great.
If you do buy this, take my advice on how to use it. This bit just cuts through the dirt, in a spiral pattern, and the dirt between the spirals remains undisturbed. So, every 3-4 inches, you need to pull up on the bit, while continuing to drill, to loosen and remove the dirt you've already drilled through. If you don't, you won't have a whole at all, but an 18-inch-deep spiral cut in the ground. And if the ground is hard enough, then eventually the blade will stop cutting, and the chuck will keep turning, but instead of the bit turning, the drill will twist around, and might break your wrist, or the handle might hit you in a place you don't want to be hit. So drill a few inches, then pull up, then repeat until the desired depth is achieved.
Also, be careful if drilling in an area with a lot of roots. It WILL drill through roots, not like dirt, but it will go through them. If you hit one, just keep applying light pressure, and the blade will whittle away at the wood of the root until you're through it. Be extra careful of the blade getting stuck on roots. And note that this really dulls the cutting edge, as do rocks. But even when it's dull, this tool easily chops through the hardest of ground.", "label": 1}

Since trying to squeeze them out can be painful, I decided to look for an alternate less painful way to remove them. I was attracted to this blackhead remover because it is rechargeable and has options for suction speeds. I also liked the different heads that come with the unit that can be useful for different applications.
Since I am a first-time user of this type of product, I decided to read the user instructions so that I didn't damage my skin. The first problem that I encountered was that the user instructions are microscopic. I couldn't read them even with a magnifying glass. I tried scanning them into my computer to enlarge them, but they still were not legible. After contacting the seller about this problem, they did send me a .PDF that still needed to be enlarged to be legible. Prior to getting the legible instructions, I tried winging it, and ended up with a big red mark on my face that took two weeks to go away.
After the red marks healed, I tried it again per the instructions, and was able to remove the couple of blackheads that I had. The other problems that I had with the instructions is that they mention the supplied filters should be changed periodically, but they don't say where they go or how to install them. I found out how to do this from the reviews of a similar product. There are also rubber gaskets included, but I still don't know where these go or how they are used. Although the instructions describe the four suction cones, they do not offer suggested uses for each. This information would also be very useful for the user.
Other than the user instructions that leave much to be desired, I would give this product a 5 star rating, but I feel the poor and tiny user instructions may cause someone to do damage to their skin as I did.", "label": 1}

Nobody likes wearing masks. They're either too loose, or they press uncomfortably against the face and get all sweaty over time. This right here is the solution to those problems.
Since the start of the pandemic, I have gotten all kinds of masks. These are most beneficial for masks that are a bit loose because they take up some of the room and make them much less likely to fall down. I am not able to use them on tighter masks because the masks smash the bracket against my face, but that makes sense. With the right size mask, these are perfect.
Pros:
- They keep masks from touching my face. It makes wearing a mask for longer than a few minutes much more comfortable.
- They have made masks that were too large usable. I have masks that have gotten no use because they were too large, but now I can use them comfortably.
- One frustrating aspect of masks is how they act with facial hair. Facial hair pulls masks down when talking. These brackets keep that from happening.
- In addition to the 12 brackets, they include a bunch of strap extenders and a couple of lanyards. The lanyards can be used to keep track of masks or glasses and are very useful.
For the price, this is a complete win.
Cons:
- When used with a mask that's regularly tight, the brackets can leave facial marks if they're worn too long. It's kind of like bedhead, but for the face. The marks go away pretty quickly.
Unknowns:
- Each bracket has a clip on the left and right sides. I cannot figure out what it is for. It doesn't affect anything, but I am curious about it.
For the price, this is a complete win. There are enough brackets and strap extenders for a large family.", "label": 1}

The thing I like most about this handheld is the ability to clean the water reservoir. I have another water flosser and is it is an all-in-one design and there really is no way to clean the water reservoir and I find that gross. This one comes right off for easy cleaning and seems a whole lot more hygienic to me.
It is a bit bulkier then the other hand held that I have, and what I mean by handheld is all in one device, no reservoir sitting on your sink. It is bigger around but I like the fact that the wand on top folds down because when I travel with my other handheld water flosser I always feared breaking off the tip during travel.
I have used this water flosser 13 times and it is just starting to act like it should be charged. It's a bit sluggish and sputters now and then so I will probably charge it after the 14th or 15th time. It has two speeds, the gentler for beginners, and the high for experienced water flosser users. You can really hurt your gums if they aren't used to this type of cleaning.
The water reservoir has a max fill line on it, but the fill line is marked too high. If you actually put that much water in it and then try to attach it to the device, water will spurt out of the top of the reservoir and maybe even shoot out of the tip. So just be cautious about that and don't say I did not warn you! This is a quick fix so I hope the manufacturer will adjust the water line max mark.
I added several pictures so you can see what the product looks like right out of the package. It came in gift box packaging which I think is pretty cool when it's something available on Amazon. If you buy it for somebody else it's like it's already gift-wrapped and you don't have to pay Amazon to do it! Score!

The metal clips have teeth, but are covered with a removable smooth plastic sleeve. Each clamp has a screw to adjust the gap from nothing to 3/8 inch. The clamps are connected by a metal chain which can provide additional opportunities.
In my experience, there are those whose nipples are extremely receptive to play to others who get nothing out of it. I\u2019m somewhere in between. I enjoy nipple stimulation, and it\u2019s a turn on. Nipple play isn\u2019t going to get me hard, but can definitely push me into orgasm during sex.
These nipple clamps are great for beginners. Those new to nipple clamps may find them overwhelming. However the adjustment screw can be used to start off with an acceptable level of pressure. When the nipples have adapted, the screws can be adjusted to add more pressure. Repeat the process until the screws are fully disengaged. The pressure can be backed off and reapplied as desired as well.
The weight of the chain will lightly pull and tug as it moves, providing subtle sensation. That sensation can be increased by pulling and tugging on the chain. Additionally small weights can be hung from the chain. Adding too much weight may pull the clamps off the nipples due to the smooth plastic sleeves, especially if lube gets on the nipples.
The Cupider adjustable metal nipple clamps are a great way to explore what nipple play can do for you. Even an experienced player can find enjoyment in these nipple clamps. I have purchased several similar nipple clamps over the years to use on others and myself. I recommend these Cupider clamps, provided to me in exchange for an honest review, for beginners and experienced players alike.
PROS:
Great for beginners
Adjustable screws
Good value at the current price
Fun sex toy

I was a bit skeptical, because I thought it smelled kind of funny, and I was somewhat squeamish about adding something so green to my food and drink. However, given the opportunity to try it for free, I thought I'd give it a shot.
This Super Organics Organic Wheatgrass Powder makes it easy to get my greens. It is organic, non-GMO, vegan and packed with powerful nutrients. One serving (less than a teaspoon) of this powder contains 89% of an adult's daily recommended amount of Vitamin C, 77% Riboflavin (Vitamin B2), 42% Thiamin (B1) and significant amounts of 4 other vitamins. It's easy to digest. It doesn't taste or smell nearly as strong as I would have thought, and as long as you put it in something that is brightly colored, it doesn't make it look strange.
I figured that, since wheatgrass is made of the green stalks of young wheat, that people with gluten intolerance would not be able to consume it. However, when I checked online, I read that wheat- and barley-grass both lack the protein that makes people with gluten allergies sick. Check with your doctor to be sure, but I think it's safe.
This powder is very fine and is packed in a resealable pouch that stands up on your shelf. It comes with a cute little scoop for measuring. It does not need to be refrigerated, but should be stored in a cool, dry place.
If you are looking for a healthy super-food with a lot of nutrition in a small amount, this is a good choice. You can add it to smoothies, like I did, or make a \"wheatgrass shot\" with one scoop of powder to 2 ounces of water.

I got this to try on my Osteo-Arthritis knee for the pain. The first night I used it, I noticed less discomfort in my knee and calf muscle. I was not expecting that to happen so soon. I slept better because of less discomfort and my nightly leg cramps did not occur. Now, I'm happy.
Next, I've been plagued with bladder problems for years, took meds that helped a little until a second opinion, honest dr told me they were destroying my kidneys. OK, I stopped taking the meds. The first night I used the DMSO on my knee, leg and hands I got the added advantage of only getting up once for a bathroom visit. Plus, I had total control again. Now, I am ecstatic. I did more research and found the only FDA approved use for DMSO was for a bladder condition that has the same symptoms I was experiencing for years. I am totally blown away at how fast this has worked on my aches and pains. I still cannot wrap my head around how something rubbed on my skin can get to and affect my bladder problems, so fast. I don't have to understand it, but I am sure enjoying the benefits. I have just regained 2 portions of my independence back. Thank you DMSO.
This DMSO is 70%, pharmaceutical grade and can be applied directly to the skin without irritation. It comes in a glass bottle, which is a big plus for me.

I've heard of this product from them before but found it for the first time at my local hair supply store in NYC. I used it as a sealant for my 4C natural hair after washing, deep conditioning, and then moisturizing it with hot water and aloe vera gel. What's most interesting about this product is that it's not really a grease, but it's too shiny, too oily, and too smooth to pass off as petroleum jelly, it's also too white in color to even pass off as something like Vaseline, which is an off-yellow color. I was skeptical at first as to how my hair would respond to this because this product is very in-between, and also odd, in many ways. It's scented but its scent is barely there, like there's a slight floral smell, but it's really hard to detect it, sometimes you smell it, sometimes you don't. Using this as a grease on your hair makes you feel like you're using what I'd call a \"clean\" grease, where it doesn't have the heavy coloring, fragrance, and oils like their original blue or green Blue Magic, it's just petroleum jelly infused with aloe vera, safflower oil, and vitamin E. To my surprise, this product worked just like those greases. It's not too heavy, but it's not too light either. It held my two-strand twists together very beautifully. It actually gave my style a slicker and smoother look to it, and my hair was so moisturized. This is advertised as being like an all-purpose petroleum jelly where you can also use it on your body, hands, lips, etc. but I think you're better off just using straight up Vaseline; I just don't think it quite works in the same way because, again, it's just way too shiny, oily, and greasy for that, but as a sealant on moist/wet hair?

There is no doubt that since I have started to take biotin my hair has definitely started to grow faster and healthier. I think some people see negative results when they start taking biotin because they make two mistakes. The first one is that they start by taking the full dose instead of slowly introducing the extra biotin to the body. And the second is that they neglect the importance of staying really hydrated. If you don't hydrate the body when you take biotin, the extra nutrients that the body doesn't need won't get flushed out and can cause issues that seem people talk about, like acne.
I started by taking just half of the dose of biotin for the first two weeks and then began upping the dose to the full amount. I also drank a bunch of water from the beginning. I have found that the biotin is not only making my hair grow faster (my hair stylist will attest!), but it is also actually improving the health of my skin, making it \"glow\" and even seem more elastic! I started seeing these results only a week after I began taking the full dose of biotin.
And, no, I didn't see any of the negative results some people are concerned about when taking biotin, such as facial hair growth, or thicker hair in any other areas of my body - just my hair on my head grew thicker and faster thank you very much!
After doing some more research about biotin I discovered that it seems to be something safe for everyone to take. I was interested to see that people who have PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) can greatly benefit from taking biotin because it helps to counteract VLDL (a form of bad cholesterol) that is typically found in the blood of patients with PCOS. In doing so, women with PCOS typically see a reduction in the side effects. Of course, I assume anyone with PCOS or other health issues should consult with their doctor before taking biotin or any other supplement.
I hope this helps any other person on the fence about trying biotin. It really works! Try it for yourself!", "label": 1}

I decided it was time to start a more healthy skin regimen to prevent any future breakouts, and hopefully my scars would be reduced in the process over time. I chose to buy Prep Skin refresher as the toner I would use because it promotes getting rid of dead skin cells, as well as promoting new cell growth, which I thought would help with my scarring. I bought a Neutrogena liquid cleanser for my oily skin that I use once in the morning and once at night, I follow the cleanser with this Prep Skin Refresher every night.

You do your skin a world of good to give up poking and prodding your acne with your fingers (even if you washed your hands first, just don\u2019t do it). The key is in addition to a good cleansing and exfoliating routine to reduce acne, invest in a good set of extractor tools when pesky acne crops up, which can happen no matter how much you do to keep your skin clean.
Ideally, one should topically medicate a pimple and ride it out. But, that is easier said than done. If you just CAN\u2019T wait for a pimple to resolve on its\u2019 own, extractors get the job done without introducing bacteria into the open area or damaging the skin. This means less redness in the area, no marks or swelling. I have used blackhead extractors for years and also started using long loops in the last couple years. Some extractors are plastic, which is not sturdy enough to apply enough force to get the job done, but is strong enough to damage capillaries. When choosing an extractor, whenever possible, invest in quality stainless steel. It lasts longer, it is durable, and it is more sanitary. This kit is an excellent investment, especially for this great price.
ABOUT THIS KIT:
I like this kit specifically because it is a nice high quality, surgical grade stainless steel, they are easy to hold and handle with grip grids on the tools themselves, and for about the price of one tool from a well-known popular brand name, you can get multiple high quality tools in this kit. It comes in a small zippered case with ample space to hold the tools securely. I like that the tools come in this enclosed case so they are not exposed to open air and stay more sanitary. The loops are large enough and sturdy enough to clean well and therefore can last for years.
The one downside I see to this kit is the lack of instructions, which is fine with me to get instructions elsewhere, or if you are someone who knows already how to use these tools, but someone who has not used such tools should review how to use these tools to remove a pimple or blackhead before use.
This is an absolutely amazing kit at an amazing price!

If they taste more like Hershey shake for example, versus a chocolate protein shake, then you know they're heavily laden with sugar, and other additives that bring down the quality of the protein powder itself. This vanilla flavor one I found very nicely flavored. It wasn't too sweet at all. I'm not too sure that I like the recommendations on how much powder to add to how much water however. 10 to 12 ounces of water with two scoops of this protein powder, is in my opinion not enough water. I use a ninja blender, that has a smoothie attachment, and so I just measured water by eye, more or less, but I could tell you for sure I put probably closer to 16 to 20 ounces of water. I just like to water it down a bit, as I found for my personal taste, it was more pleasant that way and went down smoother. The taste is subtle and nice, especially when diluted, like I did. I use it as a post workout drink, to help my muscles recover from resistance training that I do five to six times a week. I found it very adequate as far as a post workout recovery drink, and on par with other whey proteins that I would routinely use. I mean, you have to take that with a bit of a grain of salt, because it's hard to anecdotally quantify the results in comparison, but I can say that I hardly notice the difference between this and your name brand whey proteins. I didn't try it for cooking or anything like that, but I know that these powders can be used in many different recipes for baking protein rich snacks. All in all, I found that it was a nice quality protein, that certainly fit the bill, and did the job for me and my needs. I found it very easy to take down, and light on my stomach. For all these reasons, I would certainly recommend it.", "label": 1}

It unknowingly and very slowly progressed over years. I had to have the radial nerve, aka funny bone, moved from within the cubital tunnel in the elbow to relieve nerve pressure. I purchase this splint for the primary purpose of using it to keep my arm stable so my surgery wound (about 4.5 inches long) would heal faster.
This thing is cumbersome! Sure, the plastic is stiff to keep your arm at the proper angle. However, when the straps are tightened, the elbow moves within the splint. The wound would become irritated rubbing against material. The worst part is that one of the straps would be right over the stitches irritating them. I knew right away this wasn't going to work. Bottom line, it may help if you have a mild / moderate case to help delay surgery. My doctor, an orthopedic specialist in hand and upper arms extremities said splints are "delay devices" because Cubital Tunnel syndrome will NEVER improve...it guaranteed to get worse over time. And take it from me, don't wait to have it examined! If you think that keeping your arm in a certain position will improve your ailment...it won't! As a patient, I don't recommend it as an effective after-surgery splint at all.
Update: I purchased two of the Corflex Elbow Bursitis Pads after I returned the splint. I purchase these from the same seller "The Therapy Connection" since they were nice enough to accept a return. These pads are excellent for cushioning the elbow, provide adjustable compression with adjustable velcro elbow straps. It spreads completely open to put on without pulling over the forearm. It has an open area on the inside of the elbow which doesn't crunch-up the material when purposely flexing for exercise. I found it to be excellent at providing enough tension at night, keeping the elbow straight while sleeping (because the last thing I need is to irritate and reopen the wound by having my arm in all kinds of contortions. I highly recommend this product instead of the bulky splint. You'll need to order 2, they only come one per package.", "label": 0}

So, my indoor cat went out the doggy door and was MIA for18 days. When he came back he had the thousand-yard stare of a man who as seen some $h1t. He also came back with an annoying habit of wanting to go outside and use the planter boxes as his own earthy litter box. While I was quite alright with it, the boss was highly agitated at him kicking over the bricks that make up the planter and digging out the soil. I figure hey there has to be a product that will deter him from doing these shenanigans.

A fun product review to review in the wintery blistery months of February in Western New York. This item gave me hope for a day when the sunshine would come back out and the kids could play on the green grass and the sunroof could open up and we could hear birds singing. Sound nice? Let\u2019s hope that this snow melts and doesn\u2019t come back!
This sunscreen I am featuring this Sunday blog review is for KIDS SPF 30 sunscreen by Sweetsation Therapy. The sunscreen is a broad spectrum UVA and UVB mineral and is water resistant for 80 minutes which was really nice so that the sunscreen does not need reapplied after each time the children decide to jump in the pool or catch a wave at the beach. The scent is chocolate and I will say pleasant smelling. There is no sunscreen odor like most with this sunscreen. The application was light, smooth and not greasy at all, which was nice. Immediately upon applying the sunscreen the skin was left with a glistening shimmer and felt very moisturized and hydrated. I loved that the sunscreen was natural and did not have artificial fragrance or chemical filler. This means that you can use the product confidently as it is gluten free, toxin free and paraben free.
This is specially designed for babies and children to help with eczema and preserving children\u2019s skin. However, adults can use it too to prevent aging spots and any damage from UV rays as well. The price is a bit steep but I assure you worth every penny the moment you place it on your skin or your loved ones skin and smell the rich essence of chocolate. There is no white creamy application marks and the marshmallow cocoa scent will captivate you and the kiddos wanting to wear this all day long!", "label": 1}

Sadly my replacement fitbit band has also just come apart in the same way the original one did. They only lasted a couple of months. I am about to request they replace the replacement.
To be fair they have always, in the past, replaced without quibbling.
It appears to me there could be something seriously wrong with their quality control. I am a 65 year old retired office worker. I have never abused their products in any way. I invariably get excellent life out of all products I buy (for example one of my cars is 39 years old, I purchased it new and it is still works fine).
I find it unacceptable for a range of products to fail as consistently as fitbit products have for me. I have never had from any manufacturer as bad a quality control experience as I have had from fitbit.
if either of their products fails again I will take them back to the chain store I purchased them from (one of the largest ) in the knowledge that they are obliged under consumer law to refund the purchase price as the goods are clearly not of merchantable quality.
I will take it back to the store because although it is not their fault fitbit products fail, their profit margins are insufficient to enable them to stock such products, and their reputation is of value to them, and it would not take many such actions from me and others to have the product withdrawn from their, and other retailers shelves.
This would be a pity as the idea behind the products is a fine one - it is only its execution that appears to let them down. However I feel I ought to have some obligation to protect others from their apparent poor quality control.
I could never discuss their products, if asked, without mentioning my poor quality control experience with them. I could never recommend them, but only because of their apparent poor quality control relative to their selling price.", "label": 0}

The latter type of pain relief can relax muscles and thus, potentially free joints-- thus both mechanisms are useful. This particular product works primarily according to the second route. That is, it contains a menthol (called methyl salicylate) that first cools the injury sight, then leaves a lasting feeling of heat. In addition to this primary ingredient however, they include Indian frankincense (from the plant, Boswellia) as an anti-inflammation agent. So this product is trying to be the best of both approaches. For about two weeks I have been comparing this pain medicine to other pain relief creams and lotions. I love the spray applicator so my hands do not get messy or greasy. It makes it more convenient to use when in public for instance, or at bedtime when one simply wants to turn out the lights and not run to the washroom to scour hands clean. The spray has a feint menthol + rubbing alcohol smell and a few seconds after spraying it will leave a cool feeling, a minute later the cool becomes hotter. Feels like icy hot in a spray. However, I sleep better knowing that unlike pure icy hot creams, this also has boswellia to lower inflammation. So it is supposed to mask and speed healing. I cannot tell you if the inflammation is actually going down, but I do get relief. Though not as much relief as my emu oil. As an added bonus, the product evaporates my sweat (there must be alcohol in the product) adding an additional layer of cooling and keeps me dryer.
Overall, This product ranks #2 among 6 types of pain relief I have been using off and on. My favorite product however (a cream with high quality hemp and menthol and emu oil) is 4 times more expensive than this spray. Given the $10 per bottle price, which seems more than reasonable for what you get, I will happily give it 5 stars. I hope this helps with your pain and please give this a thumbs up if my review has helped you with your decision to purchase (or not)", "label": 1}

I just got in 3 new cans and I noticed a difference in the design in the nozzle in that it was tipped forward a little instead of straight up and down in line with the can. When I used it I got the spray up into my sinuses and then my face, and when I was done I tipped it over and a lot of the liquid ran out of the cap.
When Simply Saline first came out it had a faulty cap that would spray out all openings in the cap: your sinuses, your face, and your clothes. A couple of years ago I found the menthol Simply Saline on Amazon and I took a chance on it and right away I noticed the design of spray nozzle was different, and I was also greatly pleased to find that when I sprayed it it only went where the nozzle was aimed- a fantastic improvement. This is especially important and helpful when I irrigate my sinuses because, as it says on the bottle, you spray with your head tilted to the side and until fluid comes back out. This can take several seconds.
I just tried this with the new can and even though I got my sinuses irrigated I also had it flooding out from the cap and onto the floor where it doesn't do anyone any good.
I'm very disappointed now with the product delivery design and I noticed that it was manufactured in a different place than it was a couple of years ago, so I don't know if the original company was taken over by new management or not. I don't know how you messed it up, but I am going to have second thoughts now of ever purchasing it again and just go back to the nettie pot.

But, honestly, any trimmer can be used as a body hair trimmer as long as it is maneuverable enough. That includes all the T-Blade trimmers and smaller head standard clippers.
That said, if you're trimming body hair, life gets a lot easier if the trimmer is waterproof (so you can use it in the shower). Because trimming somewhere else inevitably results in a ton of hair getting everywhere.
Well, until now. Someone decided to combine a medium-sized clipper with a small vacuum. The idea is that the vacuum will pull in the hair as it's cut. So the hair winds up in the device, not on your sink or floor. It's not a bad idea.
In practice? I found that this clipper DEFINITELY pulled in most of the hair when I used it. But it's not the world's most powerful vacuum, and some still wound up on the sink (or floor). So, in the end, this will help keep things cleaner, but you'll still want to do some cleanup.
In terms of functionality, you have one speed (on/off) and two speeds for the fan (low and high). Low seemed worthless--you'll definitely want to run it on high. As I mentioned, this is a lower power fan and you'll want all the power you can get.
In the package you get:
** Clipper/vacuum device with superior quality ceramic cutting blade
** Three clipper length guides (two of which are double-sided)
** A cleaning brush
** A USB charging cable (requires USB-A connection; connection on clipper is USB-C so you can use any USB-C charging cable you have)
** Cheap body sponge
** Cheap plastic hair cutting bib
Honestly, I am of two minds about this. While the vacuum is nice, it doesn't catch all the hair. As a result, I would still be more inclined to step into the shower and run the clipper (where the stray hair can be washed down the drain). But if you are the kind of person who runs the clipper outside of the shower, even though the vacuum does not catch all the hair, it catches enough to reduce the clipped hair mess. So this might be the extra cost over a standard clipper.", "label": 1}

My cycles were all over the place and I was looking for a natural way to balance myself and regulate my cycle so we could conceive sooner. The 3 months we were trying my cycles were 37, 46, and 41 days long (all over the place). I had done research and discovered the cassava root is known to help naturally regulate a woman's cycle and increase the chances of having twins. I had little to no interest in having twins, but I just really really wanted to have "A" baby. The two months of taking cassava root my periods regulated! Could be coincidence, or could be Cassava, may never know. My cycles went back to being their normal 34 days long, and now two months later, pregnant! If we find out it's more than one in there, I will update!
TIP: Only take Cassava root in the weeks you're ovulating, waiting on ovulation, and on your period. If you suspect your pregnant, I recommend to stop taking them. So in other words, stop taking after ovulation and until you get your next period (if you do!). The more research I did, although the root is good for regulating your cycle and moving your eggs, it has also been suspected to be linked to some miscarriages. One week, I got a really bad migraine for a few days, I stopped taking them for the time being. This illness was most likely unrelated, but since this is not FDA approved and it could have been caused by them, it was best to just stop for a few days. Keep in mind bad/expired/molded cassava root can cause cyanide poisoning. Not sure if this is in large doses, or what, but just keep in mind if you start showing symptoms similar to cyanide poisoning. Stop taking them and go to the ER. I chose this specific supplier based off this fact, because they have a lot of good reviews, testimonials, multiple products, and seemed the most "legit" out of all of them.

In two days the flakes on my forehead disappeared and I had a bit of a glow. This may not seem like a big deal, but given my skin and travel schedule it is!
I thought it was maybe a short term effect though so I kept using it. The true test was when I went on a long international flight. Usually, I'm so dehydrated that I'm itchy. On this flight I put my 'spritz' in small bottle and carried it on with me. After a ten hour flight, I was dewy and my skin didn't feel tight at all. In fact, it was velvety smooth.

Since this experiment worked so well, I used it to make my own foundation. I swear it works just as well as Chanel's Vita Lumiere.

This is a pretty good shaver. About a year ago I gave up the battle with balding and just started shaving my head. Since then I have been on the hunt for the easiest way to do this regularly on my own. This type of buzzer has been the best solution. This particular one I would say is pretty much in the middle in the range of best to worst head shavers I have used so far. I have tried 5 different ones for context.
Pros-
I like the 6 shaving heads. It covers a good surface area.
The battery stays charged for a good bit. I am able to shave my head two days in a row before I need to charge it.
It also charges up quickly.
It doesn't pull and this is actually something that I have noticed in general with these types of buzzers. If I use this same type on my face it typically will cause irritation but on my head, this doesn't.
Its water resistance is pretty good. I will detach the buzzer head and run it through the sink halfway through shaving and I can immediately pop it back on to finish without drying it.
Cons-
It's hard to clean the little buzzers. I can get most of the hair out but it takes a bit of effort.
It's not the most durable buzzer, some of the plastic covers have popped off. This is common with all the buzzers like this that I have used though.
I really don't find a ton of use with the attachments. They don't work all that well.
Overall I am a fan. I would definitely get another one of these if/when this one does need to be replaced. If I get a few months out of one of these buzzers then I feel they are worthwhile. So far this one seems like it will easily hold up that long at least. The price point on this is reasonable too.", "label": 1}

Then out of the blue, all my weights are now up 10 pounds from where they were. i thought i was down in the 180s now i am back in the 190s. During the time everything was down, my body fat % numbers were down as well. and then one day. everything is back up.
I find it hard to believe that in one day i all of a sudden gained 10 pounds. unless, now the scale is broken the other way. I have not changed any eating habits. I keep the same amount of calories. The scale has not moved from it's position. So i have deleted all the old \"false\" measurements and am back up 10 pounds.
So now i am a bit angry and depressed that i was not making as much progress as i had hoped, progress I was relying on your devices to help me track ACCURATELY. I was really excited in thinking i was making great strides towards my fitness goal.
I have the Fitbit ZIP as well, i had the Ultra but it's bad design did not stay clipped to shorts and was lost (who knows where) and while i wanted to keep common technology so i only had to look in one place for tracking steps, etc., I feel I am going to have to dump your scale and most likely your tracker as well.

Hell, i can lean too far back on my heals and change the weight by a good pound or so. The weight shouldn't change just because i have bad balance. I would not call that very accurate. as for the 10 pound swing, i can't even imagine what would have caused that.

When I first opened the box I saw a universal power adapter which I thought was a bit weird. When I opened the actual pouch the unit came in (which was a nice touch!) I saw that the power adapter has a European Type-C plug. I guess they must've given me the European Model, but it did come in English so....

I first tried the hand-held mode which.. did not work at all. It kept saying no contact. Well whatever, so next I moved onto using the limb leads (making sure to set the mode to limb) and yeah, it worked, albeit with some artifacting. It unfortunately only shows 3 leads, despite having 4 electrodes which could easily offer up the augmented vector leads... Even more bizarre is the firmware actually has options to view leads V1-6, not sure how they manage that without a 12-lead.... I also noticed it also does pulse-oximetry. I thought great, I've got a USB probe so I can try it in this unit since it has a USP port. Well, No. What the images don't show is that the pulse-ox only works using their proprietary six-pin adapter, which is clearly marked on the actual unit itself, just not on the images.

I find that I can get a more effective and faster release on the upper leg (side, back and front) using the muscle roller than with a large foam roller or a ball. The last few years, I\u2019ve experienced back tightness and pain intermittently. I\u2019ve found the SOMA muscle roller to be very effective in helping me find and release the tight spots when I am lying on the floor and the roller is under my back. My back felt relaxed and free feeling after using the muscle rollers for only a week. Sometimes, I\u2019ll use two muscle rollers under my back, one above the other. I have the slightly softer SOMA muscle roller too (the orange one). When using the rollers under the back, I lie on the floor with knees up and feet on the floor. I start with the rollers under the low back, then move up the back. First, I lie still over the rollers, then allow the torso to rock slightly forward and back and side to side, with pelvis down and then lifted slightly. Sometimes I place the SOMA small foam roller under my head for support. If I rock my torso forward and back, the head rocks on the foam roller and the neck gets a release too. When I get to the upper back, I like to use both muscle rollers together, without head support, so that the exercise allows for both myofascial release and thoracic (upper back) extension.", "label": 1}

Pros:
1. It works fast, faster than the GU Roctane that I will also use from time to time. In fact, after taking this stuff in, I can literally feel the surge of relief and boosted endurance in my muscles within ~10-15 minutes. Nothing else I've tried gives me such a noticeable boost.
2. The unflavored version doesn't have any flavor (or rather it has a neutral bland flavor). It is what it is.. that's a big pro for me.
3. Using a blender, I can make a calorie dense liquid that will last for hours and hours. I like to do (3) scoops in 20 ounces with 80 calories of electrolytes for 500 calories.
4. It's relatively cheap. As of this posting, this stuff is 111 calories per dollar. But you'll need to mix in your own BCAA'a and electrolytes to make it a more complete intra fuel. That could get expensive. By comparison, GU Roctane is 50 calories per dollar so it's more than twice as expensive (for the variety pack), but it has electrolytes, BCAA's and OKG to make it a more complete fuel. Maybe blend (2) scoops Vitargo and (2) GU Roctane together to make a 500 calorie super fuel?
Cons:
1. It doesn't mix that well on the go. Drinking a clumpy energy drink is distracting and I don't like it.
2. The high absorption rate causes brief stomach distress directly after ingesting. I've almost upchucked this stuff a few times, I had to slow down and walk a few minutes until the nausea passed. I think I can experiment with taking smaller sips more often to fix this, but for now I am calling it a con.", "label": 1}

Finally a shoe spray that works. I wear sneakers for work and am on my feet 10 hours a day. part of the reason i have so many shoes is because after a month or so of daily wear they would be rendered out of commission because nothing would remove the foot odor. I would need to get another pair !!! Even if I would use other products or alternate use, as soon as I put it on it was the same issue !! I don\u2019t feel my feet are excessively sweaty or smelly but its just the nature of having your foot wrapped up for hours without a breath ! This spray has really saved me from thinking about shoe odor and allows me to not go through shoes like water !!! I use it almost daily after I get home. I spray the inside making sure to spray from toe to heel. It definitely gets damp so I make sure I do this and allow to dry over night. The first bottle I got the spray nozzle didn\u2019t work and wouldn\u2019t pump - one email to customer service and they sent me another one no questions asked!!! They let me keep the defective bottle and I was able to refill the new one with the broken bottles liquid! Great customer service and I\u2019m now a repeat customer. The bottle definitely lasts me about 2 months with almost daily usage. Sometimes over the weekend I will really saturate the shoe knowing I won\u2019t wear it for a day or two, not sure if that\u2019s overkill but my shoes have smelt amazing so I\u2019m not changing anything lol the smell isn\u2019t perfumey and after it drys it really isn\u2019t very noticeable. I prefer not to mask the smell with strong scents and this makes that possible!
I think it\u2019s important to note that if you have a pair of shoes that are too far gone there is only so much this spray can do. once the bacteria that causes foot odor is deep in the fibers it is difficult to remove entirely and will smell again when introduced to any moisture. I found that using this consistently on newer shoes or before it gets to that point is key to keeping the bacteria at bay.", "label": 1}

I washed them without fabric softener and dried them on low. Used them for my period without any leaking and they were extremely comfortable, so I decided to just order another package of smalls instead of bothering with mediums because the smalls seemed perfect. I received mediums instead :/ I'm gonna keep them on the off chance I have an unusually (more so) heavy period than usual, but REALLY wish I had received the smalls I ordered. **I said that I'd keep the mediums, then tried to place the pad in clean underwear (to make sure it would fit properly before I ever needed it) and it was too big.

Overall I'm loving the switch to reusable cloth pads, super comfortable, feel dry like soft underwear (not like sitting in a pad/diaper), no smells (didn't have any before but I guess worth mentioning?), not irritating (I was beginning to get irritation from disposables), easy to wash, discreet, and you can personalize your pads for your personality if you want. You will likely want to purchase a wet/dry bag (like one for cloth diapers) for your purse/bag/backpack for when you need to change a pad in public.

I used to be woken up nightly with horrible leg cramps. Sometimes my calf would be stiff like a rock. Other times my big toe would be flexed upward and would not move from that position. Either way it was very painful. Additionaly, I've been battling with out of control high blood pressure for about 10 years. Doctor after doctor just kept putting me on stronger and stronger medications. Also I'd wake up every hour at night to pee. In my mid 30s I was thinking, these are just signs of aging.
After some research, I came across Dr. Dean and her Magnesium miracle. So I started buying magnesium supplements from my local pharmacy. I was thinking Magnesium is Magnesium, so why shell out $30 for a magic potion? Man, was I wrong! My symptoms did not go away. About a month ago, I had a huge health scare where I started experiencing chest and back pains. My blood pressure had elevated to 265/138 even with 4 medications and the doctor wanted to rush me to the ER.
I ordered a bottle of Remag out of desperation. Literally, within 2 days, my leg cramps were gone! Gone! My unusual and noticably hard heart beat normalized. I thought hmm, that's strange. Upon checking my blood pressure, it had come down to 140/78 from a high high of 265/138. I also notice that I go to bed earlier and wake up earlier feeling well rested. And no more waking up every hour to pee. At my job as a Data Analyst, I find that I am more relaxed and focused when I'm writing code or working on large complex datasets.

I have difficulty with high pitched sounds (this from someone who once had perfect pitch hearing). As a listening device it amplifies EVERYTHING without any sort of filtering. So the high pitched sounds were magnified painfully without clarity. On top of that everything sounded far away and hollow (yet loud) almost like listening through a tin bucket (for those old enough to remember it's similar to mono than hi-fi speakers). The background noise made this useless as a basic listening device.
There are four settings in what seems to be a fixed equalizer (a fully adjustable equalizer would have allowed more personal customization). So for instance, the #1 setting amplifies the high range down through the #4 setting which brings out the base. The middle two settings seem fairly balanced with leanings toward the upper and lower settings.
The volume control works as expected.
The relaxing sounds were nice but the waves are on an annoying loop that doesn't loop. There is definitely a starting and ending point to the track.
I didn't have trouble hooking it to the TV. It worked but the nature of the sound changed (see above) but then again TV's and other electronic devices can be tweaked for preferred sound. Maybe the problem is that this device does not come with the digital cables (the can be purchased separately). So my TV was outputting analog sound which is a serious step down from digital sound (think two cans on a string vs dolby/thx sound).
The cradle comes with an open slot, which I assume can be used to charge a second receiver.
Maybe there is something I'm not understanding but this is a simple amplification device. The sound is not clear and certainty not natural (to me). Maybe my problem is that I'm remembering (or think I'm remembering) the fine tuning my ears used to have and this definitely does not restore any of that distinction or clarity.", "label": 0}

Anyway, the taste factor was a bit of a deterrent so I mainly resorted to taking Peter Gilham's Calm every night before bed. The problem in using powdered citrate in the volume I believed I needed to overcome my magnesium deficiency symptoms was the upset intestines and diarrhea it caused. I have also tried every pill and capsule form of magnesium on the market without every experiencing a single benefit besides diarrhea. Long story short, I decided to buckle down and dose solely with ReMag twice a day (in the morning and before bed) to try and get better results. I use a dropper and place the equivalent of about a teaspoon directly under my tongue and chase it down with cold water. After dosing like this consistently for about 2 or 3 weeks I began to realize that some conditions that I have lived with for years were greatly improved. It greatly helps regularity without the annoying diarrhea. I'm sleeping deeply (have suffered night time waking episodes for many years). My back related muscular pain issues from a car accident have significantly improved and now my adjustments are holding (this has been a major thing for me). I am prone to a-fib episodes which are only prevalent when triggered by certain foods (allergies?), MSG, and alcohol. The most amazing thing for me is that those triggers are still there but my heart no longer responds with a-fib and there have been no more episodes! My blood pressure has also dropped and is more stable and I feel less anxious (calmer). I have now been dosing consistently for about 6 weeks and will be a ReMag customer for life.

Utilities say \"Flushable\" personal wipes clog sewer systems
for the full story:
[...]
Next time you go to toss that \"flushable\" wipe in the toilet, you might want to consider a request from your sewer utility: Don't.
Sewer agencies across the country say the rapidly growing use of pre-moistened \"personal\" wipes -- used most often by potty-training toddlers and people seeking what's advertised as a more \"thorough\" cleaning than toilet paper -- are clogging pipes and jamming pumps.
Utilities struggling with aging infrastructure have wrestled for years with the problem of \"ragging\" -- when baby wipes, dental floss, paper towels and other items not designed for flushing entangle sewer pumps.
The latest menace, officials say, is that wipes and other products, including pop-off scrubbers on toilet-cleaning wands, are increasingly being marketed as \"flushable.\" Even ever-thickening, super-soft toilet paper is worrisome because it takes longer to disintegrate, some say.
\"Just because you can flush it doesn't mean you should,\" said I.J. Hudson, a spokesman for the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission, which handles sewage for 1.8 million Maryland residents in Montgomery and Prince George's counties.
The result: Utility officials say crews needed for less preventable sewer maintenance and repairs are being deployed instead to patrol for wipes.

My aging feet are starting to hurt too often, and I'm becoming more aware of shoe cushioning. However, I've been bewildered with the multitude of insoles offered on amazon... most of them have a dozen rave reviews written in poor English, and I wonder whether they are legit. I tried such a pair, but returned them... they were for flat feet, and didn't really provide much cushioning at all.
Rather than go through that again (and again), I found a link on a running site from someone who made their own from this stuff, so I decided to give it a try. Being one who likes to make things complex, I decided to use some old sorbethane I've had forever and add some inserts at my pressure points. I used the existing manufacturer EVA insole to trace the contour, but also to determine where the pressure points were... I layed some transparent drafting film over the old insole and traced around areas that showed excessive wear... the ball of the foot primarily, and surprisingly the toe. The heel was not too worn, but I went ahead and added one there. I then cut the shapes out of the film and used the holes as a template for the sorbethane inserts. I've attached a pic of the final creation.
And it works wonderfully! Better than I could have imagined! I'll report back with a long-term review after I put some miles on them, but so far it's great!

Once charged, you have some choices to make. Check online for proper placement locations for the pads, there are a lot of options and i am not qualified to tell you where to put them. Once down, you slot the plugs on the TENS cable to two of the pads then plug the cable into the A or B terminals at the bottom of the unit. you can do the second set as well in the same way.
Powering on the machine is quick and easy, button on the top next to the charger. This will turn on the LCD, the machine has some settings to fiddle with: 2 TENS modes, 2 PMS modes, 2 Massage modes, with 4 variant programs each. TENS is pain relief, PMS is Post Muscle Stress and supposed to help with growth, and Massage is... well, massage. You swap between the modes with the M button, the left and right arrow keys change the program, T adjusts the timer, the up and down buttons on the sides are for the power for the pads on that side. There's also a little round button in the center of the device, holding that for 3 seconds locks the keypad.
Getting wired up and program selected, this thing works pretty well, it puts out quite a bit of oomph. The different modes are a nice feature, as is the onscreen timer and battery display. The manual suggests running the battery flat before recharging it, at least twice, before having you be able to top off a charge whenever. I wish it had some sort of completion alarm, as of right now, it just powers off when the timer reaches 0.

However, I am relatively happy with this purchase, and I do believe it made a difference in the quality of my sleep.
The material of the mask is soft and comfortable. The band is adjustable to get a good fit\u2026I just haven\u2019t quite figured out where that is yet. It seems like the tighter the better, but then I noticed it slipping some when I put it as tight as I felt like it should be. When I loosened the fit a bit, it didn\u2019t slip as much. Go figure.
The 3D design is a good idea, and works well for the most part. I think I have a larger than average sized nose, and it still fits fairly well. The material itself does accomplish a total blackout of any light. However, a little light does seep in around the nose area where it doesn\u2019t fit completely flush to my skin. I was able to eliminate 95% of this by simply adjusting the mask around my face until I was convinced it was in the best position.
At one point during the night, my husband got up to go to the bathroom, and I took the opportunity to really test out the blackout feature. We keep the hall light on, so it gets pretty bright when we open the bedroom door. I lay there with my eyes open, ready for the light to come in, right up until he got back in the bed and I realized I wasn\u2019t going to see any. So yes, it does eliminate all light coming in through the material. It\u2019s just, like I said, a small bit around the nose area where you can see light if you open your eyes just the right way.
I also felt like I got a better night\u2019s sleep than I usually do, and it was much easier for me to wake up in the morning than is typical for me. So my sleep quality must have been better since I didn\u2019t struggle to wake up\u2014and I cannot tell you how appreciative I am of that!

Plus the kicker is that it comes with its own cord to secure to your face! That is sort of the entire reason I got these. They are MUCH more comfortable and seem to form better to your face without hurting your nose too!
But for my particular use - I did not think it through enough... You see I do not wear cloth masks - do not trust them. N95's for me when out on public or on the very crowded subway. I bought way back in July these crappy N95's that always touch my lips and almost feel like they are going to get sucked into my mouth - so I end up opening my mouth wide when wearing them to breath and stuff. My newer N95's have no issue - but I really wanted to use up the old ones to get rid of them. The original mask inserts I tried were harder, left worse marks on my face (especially my nose) and got MUCH wetter (like literally dripped condensation on my while wearing).
THEASE are MUCH better - much more comfortable and molding to your face BUT, totally my fault, I did not think through the cord attachment as if I do that I sort of ruin the entire purpose of the N95 being sealed against my skin. : ( So I do not use the cord at all and they do stay put better than other similar ones that I have tried. BUT - like others - the edges sort of push the mask away from your face so I had to cut off the tabs (and most of the silicone edging actually). They do get a bit moist as well - but unlike others they did not leave a literal pool of liquid for my lower lip to bath in while I used it. Others leave a LOT more condensation.
So I like these for what they are - but will only need them to get my old supply of masks used up.

On the other hand, this passed the \"boils water\" test with flying colors.
I recommend lighting them at a corner with a candle or long-style lighter. I also recommend saving broken tablets and using them to adjust burn time if needed. Absolutely have water nearby when using these. Thoroughly dousing them puts them out, but the remnant of the tab will crack and break or crumble outright.
Also, I had the folding stove set on an old wooden table outside. The table started to smolder underneath the stove! Make sure you set your stove on packed dirt, rock, brick, steel, or cement. Do not set it up on an aluminum, wood, or plastic table--it burns too hot and will damage them.
On a recent group camping trip, these saved the day when it rained and drenched the wood for the bonfire. One of these burned hot enough to get past the surface moisture on the wood and start the bonfire, no muss, no fuss. I would carry these camping even without the stove just for that.

The design is cute, and the women in my life both wanted this when they saw it--especially when they realized what it could do.
In terms of the quality of the attachment, the rotary head and the nose hair trimmer work pretty well. The foil trimmer is not great, nor is the bikimi trimmer. There are much better-dedicated devices for those purposes.
To be honest, I think the most attractive use case of this would be for a woman to keep in her purse for those last-minute face touchups while you're out that you missed in the bad light at home. The women whom I showed this to both had that same idea, something they revealed as they argued who would get it! :-)
A nice little gizmo.
Included in kit:
Battery operated Dooper handle (AA battery, not included)
Four interchangeable attachments: Bikini trimmer, rotary shaver, foil shaver, nose/ear hair trimmer
Two cheap cleaning brushes
Protective cap for bikini trimmer
Protective cap for nose hair remover
Cheap plastic bag to hold Dooper

The lining is a coating, not extra fabric. Each pair is separately sealed. The colors are nicer than my standard yellow household gloves, and these have cute details like a scalloped rim at the opening and patterns such as little flowers.
These gloves feel thicker and a little bulkier than my usual yellow latex gloves. I do like the feel of the cotton coating inside the two blue pairs as it absorbs moisture and keeps them from feeling clammy or sticky inside. If the gloves were a tighter fit, it would also help with taking them on and off. The white/yellow unlined gloves don\u2019t feel as comfortable as they stick to my skin and get clammy feeling, but they\u2019re ok for short intervals. I would have preferred all pairs were coated inside.
These gloves come up higher on my forearms than other gloves this style, so they generally offer good protection of my forearms as well as my hands from hot water and grime when I\u2019m washing dishes, cleaning the toilets and so on. The hands have a textured grippy exterior that helps keep wine glasses, dishes and other breakables from slipping through my hands.
These gloves run big. I have long fingers and normally wear a size L in household gloves and a size L/XL woman\u2019s fashion glove, but the size L is really roomy everywhere. I still use them, but they slip down so they dangle off my long fingers and the arms gape open. I\u2019ve reused both styles of gloves numerous time and haven\u2019t had any issues of tearing. While not perfect, I do like these household gloves for chores pretty well (especially the coated pairs). I suggest sizing down, with the caveat I haven\u2019t tried size M and the unlined style will be difficult putting on and taking off if too tight. 3.5 stars.", "label": 1}

I can not say this would work for everyone like it did for me but thought it might be helpful for some. My doctor years ago ran several blood test over a few months and my Triglycerides were in the 800 to 850 range. He was concerned and wanted to put me on a perscription medication. I prefer not to take perscription when ever possibable. Especially if I will have to be on it for life. I told him my coneren and he said if I could obtain a very high quality fish oil that he would be fine if I took it. He said if it did not bring down the level to normal that I would have to take the perscription. I did a lot of research and decided to try the Carlson fish oil. My levels were 800 to 850. At the time as I recall the accepted level was something like 450. I started to take this every night before bed. I took 1 table spoon full every night. After a few months he tested my level and it had dropped to 400. A year later he tested and it was 150 and gas stayed that way ever since. Again I have Ben taking it for years and still do. I have had no side effects, some say fish oil will disrupt sleep but I have never had that issue. If I have had to have surgery or any medical procedure preformed where bleeding could be an issue then I have to stop taking fir a few weeks before the surgery or procudure. As the fish oil will interfere with clotting. So clearly is also acts as a blood thinner. To say that I am impressed is a understatement. Years later I seen a new perscription on the market that was a gel cap of highly conceration of fish oil. I personally would rather take this instead but that is just me. You would always want to consult with your own doctor if you wanted to take for this condition. They should know anyway due to the blood thinning and you could already be taking a medicine for that. My wife in the last year started taking it as well but only takes 1 teaspoon full per night. We both feel great. This is a real review with real result by a real person.", "label": 1}

They either buy them pre-made or make them themselves. I'm not a fan of protein drinks, but do LOVE to make my own Kool-Aid to drink. My kids love homemade chocolate milk. I get tired of dirtying so many spoons making it.
This cup is the ANSWER! Really, it is! This cup holds about 9oz of liquid before the liquid touches the lid. If you fill it with 8oz, there is about 1.5" before it touches the rim of the cup. The lid securely fits inside the cup without liquid coming out. It is sort of a tight squeeze and requires some pushing to push the lid down completely.
You can turn the black hole cover to drink. Straws fit nicely in the bigger hole also. It is not to hard to turn the black piece to open the spout to drink. I used soap and water to clean this as it is not dishwasher safe since batteries go in the bottom. The batteries are held in place with a thick silicone cover. It is easy to use your finger and remove the cover to place or replace batteries. I have to keep this up from my kids, or I would constantly be replacing the batteries. They love to push the button to make a "tornado" as they call it.
I don't really have any issues with the function of this cup, but do wish the cup could be removed from the battery part. I like to hand wash my dishes and have caught myself almost putting this in my dish water. This is a nice cup to take when on the go to make drinks yourself. I would be interested in buying this in a larger cup also.

This is the WORST vacuum cleaning robot I've ever used. I've been using vacuum cleaning robots since the iRobot Discovery and have used about 9 different iRobot models as well the Samsung robot I currently use. This robot could not find it's way out of a corner, literally. In my entrance foyer with literally one piece of furniture (a small table) it continuously got caught on a 5/8" quarter round which was a joke. It could not go onto or off of a small area rug (very thin) without getting caught. Worse yet when it gets caught, it doesn't beep for help or alert the cell phone app. It just sits there and burns through the battery running the motors on the wheels non-stop.
If that wasn't bad enough the app design is poor. When you go to discover the robot it will show a name like "Hoover 6" and the red circle keeps spinning (so I think it is still discovering or connection). Nowhere does it say to select the name to continue, but that is indeed what you have to do. I do like that the app shows remaining battery life. You can watch the battery drain while it sits in a corner and cannot figure out what to do.
Couldn't make it over small transitions on a wood floor that my Samsung and iRobot vacuum cleaning robots maneuver every day of the week.
Vacuum cleaning area is NOT the full width of the robot. The width is less than a dollar bill (6") which is way smaller than ANY of the iRobots and smaller than the Saumsung.
I'd urge you to consider other robots. This literally isn't worth the shipping cost. If you get free shipping, it isn't worth the cost of your electricity to charge it. I can recommend any of the Roombas (700 and 800 series are power houses) and my current favorite which is the Samsung PowerBot.", "label": 0}

My wife wondered this, too. "If that light is so powerful, is the light coming from it safe?"
Worse, it's WAY too bright to keep on in a bedroom. I immediately put black tape on it so I could sleep...then hid it in a box! The fan sound is gentle white noise, not a problem. Some people like a little white to to help with sleep. But blue light - the color of sunlight - is not good for sleep at all.

Does it work? Well, it's a matter of proving a negative. My bedroom smells clean and fresh with it, but then, it didn't smell bad without it. I haven't gotten sick since I started using it, but then...would I be sick now if I DIDN'T use it? Probably not.

I'm really glad I invested the money for this scale. It seems to be accurate, seeing as how I was just weighed at the doctors office 1 week ago and have lost a few lbs off that number. Which I am trying to do. So as far as accuracy goes, this seems to be right on key.
I need to keep it hidden from my kids though because it says not to be used by anyone under 10. And the look is just too tempting.

I really like the ability to change settings depending on my flow. Sometimes I can just stay on the massage or switch to the deep express mode. You may know the \"massage\" mode as the let down phase in other pumps. The cool thing about this pump is that it has a setting where its both of these!!! The massage (or let down) with the deep express mode. I saw from another reviewer you can use Lansinoh bottles too \u2764
In the video I show L1 vs L5 vs L9. If you're like me, I can't go straight to express mode, nothing will come out or it will but then my flow stops. Leading me to think my breast are empty. If you change to the massage mode then viola milk is flowing again. However, staying on the massage mode will take forever to empty my breast so the combo has been amazing. You can also adjust how long its in massage mode to when it does deep suction. L1 is the longest time for massage with an expression/ pull at the end. L9 is the shortest time for massage then express.
You can play with the settings to see what works for you. I like to keep a mirror handy so I can see when my flow stops then I can change different modes to get the milk out. Sometime one 30 min session is not enough (for me personally, everyone is different) and I need to go back for round two on the same breast.
What I dislike about this pump is there is no where on the sellers store to purchase spare parts. They give you an extra duckbill valve but thats it. Also I noticed milk sometimes gets trapped on the top cup thing (where I'm pointing my finger in the picture). I just have to carefully pull the pump off while I'm aiming it over the bottle to save those few milliliters of milk. Lastly, the battery life kind of sucks. I noticed I get two 30 min sessions when its green/full. Then two 30 min sessions for orange and the same for red. Using it on both breast translates to just 3 pumping sessions. However, you could still pump when it's plugged in charging.", "label": 1}

Don't get me wrong, a good night of sleep is worth that to me, but just knowing that I am dealing with a company that would use such an obscene markup just ruins it for me.
Nutrition is my business. I learned a long time ago to beware of companies that will only allow you to purchase a product from the by subscription, without giving you the opportunity to try it first. You can make a one time purchase on Amazon.
Also, beware of companies that will give you pat answers like, \"We want you to take the product for an extended period of time because our product has a cumulative effect, and works better over time.\" That may be, but really they just want you on the hook for $100.00 a month.
Unless you are Elvis and have a ton of money to blow on a good night of sleep, I would steer clear. The pretense of taking the high road is obvious here. This is an incredibly overpriced product. I would love to know how much it actually costs to manufacture one 30 night supply of this.
Edited: I recently purchased a canister of this. I have some real issues with it. Primarily, cacao contains a stimulant that is very similar to caffeine. SO, I had two competing things going on. I felt wired from the chocolate and sedated from the other ingredients. I was wired and sleepy at the same time. Not good, and it did not work very well for me. Unlike many others who have reviewed this product, I really like the taste of it. I mix it with oat milk. I really like the combination of chocolate and cinnamon, but for $100.00 I could just buy some hot cocoa and put some cinnamon in it and keep the other $95.00. This would me a much more effective supplement if they would lose the cacao.", "label": 0}

I play music in a couple of bands, and go to shows relatively frequently, so I try to find plugs that meet a few requirements: (1) they form a good seal, (2) they're comfortable enough to be worn for hours on end, and (3) they don't completely inhibit conversation or awareness of the environment. I also prefer to find plugs that are (4) relatively flat in frequency response and (5) have minimal profiles when inserted to avoid unwanted jostling, though these are preferences, not hard requirements.
Simply put, these plugs are hands-down the best in categories 2-3 and 5 I've ever tried. The double-flange silicone forms a comfortable seal, and the plugs themselves aren't easily jostled or start to come loose if I sweat or move around. For category 1, the plugs don't beat out the one-time foam, or other heavier re-usable products like Hearos Skull Screws, but they actually come quite close to that level of sound rejection, while also far and away more comfortable and much flatter in frequency response. These are real winners in my book, I recommend them to my musician friends all the time.
My one complaint is that the key chain case is a little awkward to open/close. Unlike the more common squeeze case you see with Etymotic or similar designs, these cases require two hands to open/close. The trade-off is that while it's more difficult to operate (and I personally cannot do it one-handed like the squeeze cases), the case provides a better seal to protect from outside dirt and moisture (I believe the case is even water-tight). So that makes this a relatively small inconvenience, and the case does perform the tasks it's designed to do.", "label": 1}

The main device has a good weight to it, which gives the impression of quality. The back of the unit is very pretty. However, it does take fingerprints easily. But it looks so nice, I don't mind that at all. The cables feel durable, and the pads are very nice!
For my initial testing, I started with my knee which had been giving me some pain. I was having a slight stabbing pain in my knee when I would bend it. After the first use (about 10-15 minutes) I was pleasantly surprised to no longer feel that pain! A note about leg hair: I am not a particularly hairy man, but I'm hairy enough that band-aids and such have plenty of hair to rip out and cause me the standard discomfort that comes with hair being ripped out. I had 4 pads around my knee. 2 above and to either side of the knee. 2 below and to either side. The top 2 pads came off very easily (very minimal hair here). The 2 on my lower leg, however, had plenty of hair to grab on to. I moved steadily but slowly and felt some pulling, but, surprisingly , there was not a single hair stuck to the pads. As secure as they felt, this was shocking. The pads were still plenty sticky after use, and I look forward to many more sessions with the same pads.
I watched a couple YouTube videos for advice on pad placement. I'm very impressed with how it handled this slight pain. I have not had the opportunity to test on more severe pain yet, but my wrists and hands have a tendency to become incredibly painful when work gets very busy. For a change, I'm almost looking forward to the next pain flare up, so I can put this unit to work against it!
Again, so far sooo good! This is the only TENS unit I have ever tried, but I'm impressed. Having just recently turned 40, I'm sure I have more random pain to look forward to.

I was beyond frustrated at buying yet another \"XL\" mask that felt tight over my face and pulled on my ears even though it was stretched to the max. So when these came up as recommended I decided to bite the bullet and give them a shot.
That was a month ago. When it arrived, it fit like a glove. I have a huge head and this ACTUALLY FITS COMFORTABLY! I don't mean \"it fits but you have to stretch it all the way out\", or \"it fits but just barely\", I mean \"it fits, it feels fine, and I have plenty of room left over to adjust\". As in, \"finally, someone understands that not everyone has the same size head\". Since then, I ordered two more XL for me and three regular size for my wife. One of the XLs arrived with a defect, but the seller immediately sent a replacement with zero hassle. That's important: any product can have defects, but what matters is how the seller handles it.
The neck loop means you can tighten the mask as much or as little as you like, and it comes in handy when you're out running errands and going from store to store. The filter pouch is nice to have, but the mask is much larger than your average PM2.5 filter, so adding the filter won't really do much -- still, it's there as an option if you prefer.
Care is a piece of cake. We've been washing them in the washing machine using a lingerie bag, then letting them hang to air dry. We've had zero problems.

I also loved how many pockets were available and that it came with a dust bag and additional smaller bag for things that are wet/soiled/etc. However, I am displeased with enough things that I decided to return it and resume my search for the perfect bag. First off, the zippers would constantly get stuck either with the interior beautiful satin blue fabric, or just within its own teeth track. I had to fiddle with it more times than not and was especially careful not to damage the fabric, so sometimes it took awhile to zip/unzip. You shouldn't have to think about this! Another con was that while it indeed fit my Spectra S1, it was a tight enough squeeze that it was a pain to get in and out when I needed to charge it. There was no way I could fit anything else in that side pocket. While the handles were again, nice quality and heavy duty, it just didn't fit comfortable on my shoulder if I had much else on it other than the pump and a few other small things like a wallet, checkbox, etc,. I had to keep my medela bottles and cooler on the top of the inside, which had me needing to zip up the top piece that normally can fold over. This made it almost impossible to keep on my shoulder and it hurt after awhile. Not very efficient to carry while full. I'm 5'9" with a long torso so I can't imagine this working for someone short and stout. To boot, it was heavy.

First of all, I had my back realigned by the chiropractor and didn't go back as ordered the following week and was still in \"some\" pain when I lean forwards and bend-over. From what I understand, if your spine is out of alignment, it impedes your natural blood flow and this disrupts your energy and how you feel in the long run. While the initial pain in your back may have subsided, and it no longer hurts, you don't feel as energetic in the long run and if you're not mindful of this, you'll never notice it.
I'm not sure why the youngevity helped my lower back pain, but it no longer bothers me. Just when I lean over and am \"expecting\" the sharp pain to bite me, nothing happens. I'm not complaining and..thanks!
The other thing I noticed is that, I'm no longer drop dead tired after 3:00pm. I now believe that a lack of proper nutrition, mixed with all these wireless transmitters, (Wimax, WiFi, Cellular) actually leaves your body gasping for energy through prolonged exposure and the body needs to recharge via sleep to repair the damage.
I've also noticed that I'm no longer sleepy after eating large meals on the weekends. Overall, my energy has improved past the point of feeling drop dead tired. For me, I started noticing this after 3 days of taking youngevity.

At first for me i go all the way up until the to 230c until the straightener is warm,It only took a minute and it is already hot.So while i am using it i just slowly brush it to my hair like i usually do on a regually hair brush or comb.
Advice if using it simply just brush it slowly onto the hair cause if your gong to be harsh on using it will cause a hair fall or some hair will stick in the hair straightener,Again Brush your hair with this straightener slowly and smoothly.
This hair straighter is very useful for straighten my hair quickly and easily with no hassle.This product really meet the quality that i expected on this.

I found an offer to purchase these Icewrap knee sleeves at a discount in exchange for an honest review, so I decided to give them a try.
I purchased the size small for him. He is 5'5" and only 105 lbs. The small were "a little tight" to get on, but not to tight and the snug fit improved support.
The product performed well for what I bought them for. The support was about what I expected, but less than he had hoped. It wasn't enough support to help during a weightlifting workout, but it acted like a light compression sleeve, similar to a compression sock for the knee. It kept his skinny knees warm and lightly supported all day. It was good for his run and unlike his stronger brace didn't tire his legs out. During his weight-training he needed more support so he slipped them down on his calves like a compression sock to increase blood flow and used stronger supports (different product) on his knees. The compression on his calves helped keep his legs energized just like a compression sock.
Basically, if you want support for an injury or weak knees I wouldn't recommend these, but if you want lightweight compression to keep them energized or help with minor swelling, these are good for all day wear. I was pleased with the product, just remember they enhance performance more than provide support. I only gave it 4 stars because it is marketed for strains and sprains and it really doesn't provide enough support for that.
*** UPDATE he has used them for 2 weeks and wears then constantly. He now just slips his heavier brace over them when he needs extra support. He washes them everyday with his sweaty clothes and puts them right back on... He LOVES them... he normally looses everything, but not these! I am truly impressed and upgrading my original 4 star rating to 5 stars. ***", "label": 1}

I have six cats, two of which are in a territorial battle, and I have tried literally anything and everything that anyone recommends, including a lot of products that claim to be enzyme based. I have NEVER seen anything like Emmy's Best - I only wish I had known about it years ago. The instructions on the bottle and in the email I received from the seller were focused on getting odors and stains out of carpets, and my issue isn't really with carpets, because my two male cats spray, so I need to clean about 12" above the floor on the bottom of furniture and baseboards and such. So I was kind of on my own with how to use Emmy's best on upholstered furniture, but I found it easy to use and extremely effective in removing odors and stains. I just sprayed it on and rubbed it with a damp towel. In fact, I had tried my regular product, Urine Off, on the same furniture recently, and afterwards, it almost seemed like the odor was worse, as if cleaning it had just diluted the spots and spread them over a wider area, so the whole house smelled like cats - yuk. But after using Emmy's Best on the same furniture, the odor is gone! I am amazed and excited to use this on other areas of the house. I have tried it on the back of a leather chair and on walls and baseboards, and so far, it has worked on everything. I do not think it smells like lavender, but the scent is quite pleasant, and ultimately, the clean smell after the scent of the product fades is wonderful. Also, I was concerned that a 32 oz bottle would not be big enough but I find that Emmy's Best goes a long way. I plan to buy more now though, because this stuff is so good that I don't think it will be long before some big company buys them up and starts selling a less effective version of the product for more money. I highly recommend Emmy's Best if you need help removing cat odors.", "label": 1}

During the sunny weather she HAS to wear sunglasses or she has trouble focusing and gets nasty headaches. My wife loves vintage looking items so when I saw these cat eye style glasses I knew that she would love them. This review is based on her experiences using this product. Pros: The first thing she mentioned was the cat eye frame and the material it was made out of. My wife absolutely loves abalone. She said that the composite frame material finish looked just like silvery gray abalone. It's actually quite beautiful. The lens. Some sunglasses are just for show. Women wear them as a fashion statement but they don't do much function wise to actually block the harmful rays of the sun. This pair does! The lenses are polarized and anti-reflective. This was an EXTREMELY important feature considering my wife's visual issues. Size. These aren't John Lennon size small. And they aren't Jackie O. size huge (as is the style currently). My wife is very petite and large sunglasses aren't flattering on her. These sunglasses were just right for her face (see product description). Shape. The lenses themselves without considering the frame are rounder than other sunglasses. This actually benefited my wife. Comfortable to wear. Durable. They stood up to being thrown inside my wife's purse loose. Variety. My wife got the silver tone ones but there are other colors you can choose from (see product description and pictures for listing). Price is very reasonable. Nice sunglasses for women are actually quite expensive. Comes with a polishing cloth and a zip closure sunglasses case to store them in. Cons: Honestly, my wife said she couldn't think of anything she didn't like about these glasses. They are now her favorite pair of sunglasses! This would make a great gift for a birthday. Christmas. Mother's Day. Anniversary (especially when combined with tickets to somewhere sunny).

One of my symptoms, which I hate more than anything, is the feeling that I have something thick and stiff strapped to my feet. If nothing else, I hoped for improvement for this alone, anything else would be an added benefit.
I received these right before I left on vacation, tried them out for a couple of days, three treatments a day, but it was nowhere near enough time. When I returned, I started daily treatments, shooting for three times a day every day, however I have missed weekends a lot and had a few days where I did not get all my treatments in. I have felt the \"thick sensation\" for so long I can barely recall a time when I have not felt it. This morning, I took my dogs out and while walking down the stairs noticed my feet felt different (I do not think this was an overnight, flip the switch, they suddenly felt different, just the first time I noticed). The sensation of a what I guess you could call leather, or to me sometimes it feels like I have plywood in my feet, is changing.
I still feel like something is there, but today, for the first time, I noticed it feels lighter, more flexible. Is it a huge difference? No, I would say subtle, but a definite improvement all the same. If this trend continues, I will be overjoyed, if this is best result - it is still enough difference to make my feet feel better and make the treatments worthwhile.
I went into this believing I was stuck, and these might help. Are they a miracle? No. Are they helping? Yes. Would I recommend you try them? I would. Am I hopeful for more progress? Certainly am. I will grant, they are not cheap, but improvement in my experience usually comes at a price. If you try them, you must give them time and you have to be willing to commit to using them, but if you do I hope you feel what I have.", "label": 1}

Never had I made it through the night with it still on my face. So.... when I read all the wonderful reviews about this mask, I ordered it, although honestly I was only cautiously optimistic that it would be as great as the reviews said it would be. Well, it arrived quickly and when I opened it up I didn't see what was so great about it. It was definitely thin and soft..... just like the reviews said, however, the strap that holds it on felt like it was going to slip right off my head while sleeping. HOWEVER..... when I went to bed that night, I put it on. It was soft, and light and really really comfortable. When I woke up in the middle of the night to get a drink of water, it WAS STILL ON!!!! I hadn't taken it off in my sleep like I'd done with every single other night mask. I got some water and went back to bed. I turn a lot in my sleep and I thought that since it was so soft and silky it would turn and twist on my head. IT DOESN"T!!!! It stays exactly where it is supposed to be. And here's another thing that is so wonderful about this mask. The strap doesn't bother the top of my ears like all of the other ones do. With the masks that have straps made out of elastic, they feel like they are digging into the place where the top of my ears connect to my head. (Sorry I don;'t know what to call that part) This mask doesn't do that at all. Well, I've been wearing it now for about a week and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!! It's silky and soft and thin and comfortable. It stays in place and I NEVER take it off in my sleep. When I wake up in the morning it is still exactly where it was when I put it on the night before. I'm tempted to buy a bunch of them just to have in case they company ever decides not to make them any more. And, if I could give this make 10 stars.... I would.

He was unable to perform his regular job and spent years on L&I. It was obvious that this was a life changing injury and that his back would never be the same. He saw several different doctors, underwent many different treatments, took tons of medication, endured tons of different tests and even attended a pain management clinic. Throughout this lengthy process, He was given a medical grade tens unit. It was the most effective tool he had to combat the pain. My husband went thru vocational training, attended the local community college and got himself a CDA and became a long haul truck driver rather than live on disability for the remainder of his life. Because he decided to better himself and not live on a government disability check, once his L&I case was closed, he had to return the tens unit. Of course a medical grade tens unit is ridiculously expensive and we simply cannot afford one. He has tried a few different cheap ones, but none has really done the job he's needed from it. I came across this one while browsing one day and figured it couldn't hurt to try given the fact it wasn't too costly. While it definitely doesn't work like the medical grade one, this little guy actually does a fairly decent job. Given that my husband is using this to relieve back pain and it helps, anyone looking to use this as a massager or fat burner should be extremely pleased. The unit requires two AAA batteries to work which are not included. Included with the unit a single cord that splits into four pieces, four pads that attach to the end off the cords and stick onto the body and an instruction manual. One simply plugs the cord into the unit, attaches the pads to the cord, place the pads where on the body they want massaged, pain relief or fat burner and then turn it on. It is much simpler than it looks. The unit has several different levels of intensity depending on what you are using the unit for and what your tolerance to the eletrical currents. Overall, this is a fantastic little unit that works great and has many different uses.", "label": 1}

Still not convinced the blade is any good, but it's become clear that the problem is with the specific pills we're trying to cut; they're just too big. Meaning that in our case, it's the plastic shell that holds the blade in place that is crushing the pill before the blade even has a chance of applying any significant force. Otherwise, my original opinion, below, is unchanged. I still think the blade is too dull for the job, but I cannot rigorously attest to that as we've had no cause to split the size pills it's clearly designed to handle.
Two different units are both doing the same thing, and due to careless advertising (can't be sure if this is the seller's or Amazon's fault) I have two more that I can test with. But I'm fully expecting the same results.
Bought this to handle 1,500mg \"horse\" pill, which just barely fit; however, the description clearly states (I am paraphrasing) \"Works with all pills; small, large, and will not crush\".
Well, between myself and my wife, we've now used this on about a dozen pills, and the result has been the same every time. Crushed pills; frequently into powder. Yet we can split these same pills, without issue, with a simple pair of decent quality scissors.
\"Didn't follow the instructions\"; um, what instructions? Not to mention the function is so bloody obvious that no instructions are needed. However, I tried both gentle, firm pressure, and just straight-up hard pressure--gentle and firm did nothing but test my patience; it certainly did not work. Hard pressure worked but ... powder, or at best large chunks.
\"Clearly the blade is dull\" I thought, and some quick testing confirmed that. Indeed, these blades can't even cut paper, so how can they be expected to handle pills that are much denser?
Good idea; OK design, but the piss-poor blade ruins the whole thing.
And sorry, the \"Must protect the children; that's why the blades aren't as sharp as they could be\" excuse doesn't fly with me. No aware parent would allow a young child anywhere near this thing, dull blade or not.", "label": 0}

In an a outer envelope then a nicer bubble wrap envelop. It has a little ziploc plastic case you can keep it in if you like. It is very silicon feeling texture and a little squishy. It reminds me of mini flatten silicone fake boob. Honestly that's what I initially thought of when i pulled it out and started touching it. It has a edge to it I am not crazy about where its sealed. So you will have to be careful around your eyes. I don't have the OG product this is based on so I can't compare it to that. But it does take very little makeup and it is very very easy to clean. Im not crazy about the finish it leaves on your face its seems a little streaky. I used my toothbrush foundation brush because I like the finish it gives over top of it. I do like it but I don't love it. And I would take away another half star and make it 3.5 if I could because it stinks. It has a terrible smell I'm leaving the storage pouch it comes with open as I'm hoping the product smell will fade in time. But it is really really smelly almost to the point where I wasn't going to use it. If you have a sensitivity to smells you will not like this.
Update 11-6-2017
So I ended up placing it next to my kitchen sink (no pouch) for about a month a few times a week I would wash it with warm soap and water. After about a month only if I held it directly under my nose would I get that chemical smell. I don't know if it was from the pouch it came in or the actual product. But it does fade over time. Now there is zero smell. I still don't use this right next to my eyes because to me the edges seem a bit sharp. How i use this product is to actually place the foundation on my face then I use one of those toothbrush style face brushes to distribute it evenly across my face. So my brush doesn't get as gunked up as quickly with product and I don't have to get foundation on my fingers either. It saves the amount of foundation I use. My foundation lasts probably twice as long now as it did before.", "label": 1}

I have used the purple Flents "Quiet Please" for a long time (years) but recently ran across these when I was making my usual Amazon purchase. The purple version do feel a bit tight in my ears after a few days, and sometimes I need a break. So I ordered these and have been so, so satisfied!
They are suggested for sleep because they are shorter than the purple "Quiet Please" version. Therefore, if you ever sleep on your side, there is no pressure. I didn't think the purple kind were causing pressure, until I tried these!
Second, these ear plugs are much more giving than then purple version. They are softer and I can wear them every night for many nights in a row. I haven't had a "break" yet and I've been wearing them for weeks. Some people have commented here and there about size differences. I have only come across one (out of about 50!) that felt a little harder. I tried it anyway, and found that it felt the same as the others in my ear, so maybe it was closer to the outside of the container on a cold night? Who knows. But I haven't had consistency issues that others have mentioned.
Third, these are rated slightly below the purple "Quiet Please" version in sound protection. As I mentioned, my husband snores loudly, so I was concerned. No problems! These seem to work just as well, and i don't notice any difference. I haven't tried them in other settings, but they keep his snores at bay...even when I can feel the base rattling around in my chest, these work. Of course, I can hear if something happens, like my dogs suddenly bark from the edge of the bed, so I'm not worried about fire alarms, etc.

I am so happy Viter Energy created this as an alternative to the metal tins they sell. I love the tins but I also wanted some caffeine mints that I could easily carry around with me in my pocket or backpack, plus the tins can be a little loud when you're down to a few mints and it jingles, these are better for the office or a bag or purse so they don't make any noise. Also I tend to lose things easily so I have misplaced a few tins but with these if I lose a packet that's only 3 mints not a big deal. Plus if I ever don't want 3 mints at once I can always put the extra into one of my remaining tins, which now permanently stay in my cars and a few spots in the house. Having 3 mints in each packet also makes for a lot less packaging waste which is always good. I also like that they are 40mg. A lot of caffeine mints start at 60+ mg but sometimes I don't need that much, or if I do I would rather space them out which works great with the 40mg. I have read some reviews of the tins where people hate the taste but I think it's fine. You shouldn't expect it to taste just like a non-caffeinated mint but I have tried other brands that were so much worse. Maybe it's something about the Wintergreen flavor that really disguises the bitterness of the caffeine. This is a perfect offering in between the tins and the bulk bag. As far as effectiveness, these are definitely the same mints you get in the tins and all I can say is they work. In fact the few times I took them late in the day I stayed up way too late at night, so consider that a warning if you're not a regular coffee drinker. The box also tells you about the 2 founders and how the company came to be, how cool is that?! I can't really think of any complaints.

I needed all the energy I can get, and I like that it has lions mane mushroom in it.
Pros:
*It does give me energy and I feel like I can mental process things faster. I like it better than coffee that gives me energy but also comes with the coffee jitters and this one doesn't.
* The color is beautiful to say the least. It looks like it has pink glitter in it or something and I keep wondering what that can be from. If you look at the video, I posted you can see the shimmer and swirl. No, it doesn't affect the inner workings of it but it does make it aesthetically pleasing.
*My favorite part- It is only 5 calories per scoop. This is great because the less calories I add the better since we know a lot of our calories are gained through liquids.
*It uses green tea extract as its caffeine source. I drink green tea sometimes and this seems to give me more energy, so I am not sure the energy boast comes only from the caffeine or if it is from everything combined. However, I like the effects without that crash that this gives me.
Cons:
*The flavor is just not good to me. I feel like a child taking medicine every time I drink it. The flavor is just so similar to a medicinal flavor that I started drinking it with a straw. Not horrible but not enjoyable or anything. (minus a star for flavor).
*Less of a con and more of an annoyance but the minerals and ingredients keep settling at the bottom if I don't drink it all right away. I have to keep stirring it every time I drink it to make sure it is evenly mixed before consuming.
Conclusion:
*I would recommend it because I did feel like it gave me more energy, but the taste is just what i couldn't take when drinking it. I understand all the things it has in it though and next to the protein powders and bars and wheat grass and everything else I have been adding this is in the same ballpark. I do like the energy from it though and the fact that it is 5 calories per scoop.

Then once the scale was set up, I configured the mobile and mac apps. This is what worked for me.
Note that the scale will not work with static IPs. If you know what this means, you probably know how to fix it. And if you have absolutely no idea, I would say consider this if you have a serious online gamer at home or someone telecommuting for instance.
The scale automatically recognizes people but in order for that to happen each person needs to have their own fitbit account which is annoying especially if you have children. Otherwise, people show up on your account and on the scale as "guest". You have an option to send the invites out to them from your own fitbit account for a maximum of 7 invites.
Last but not least, because of the technology behind body composition analysis, this scale should not be used by people with medical devices such as pace makers, pregnant women, or children under the age of 10.

There\u2019s no way it should melt my hair when set to 200 deg. It really shouldn\u2019t even melt my hair if it was set at the highest heat setting of 350. Not with a quick press.

This is the 2nd unit in a row that had this problem. This one isn\u2019t flashing the \u201cErr\u201d message like the last one. At least with that one it would start flashing an error message when it overheated. This time it was reading the correct temperature so there was no way to know it was was hotter than it should have been until I used it and it very quickly started to melt my hair.
There seems to be some type of manufacturer defect. I would avoid buying this hair straightening iron.
I had an issue with the first 1-3/5 inch hair straightener I ordered. It kept getting way hotter than what I set the temperature at and then it would start flashing an \u201cErr\u201d message.

So far so good with the new hair straightener. I had this same model for years and loved it but unfortunately it got broken in a move. So when I came across the same model I ordered it immediately. I\u2019m guessing the first one I got was just a rare defect. As I said, the replacement is working perfectly so far and the previous one I had worked great (and would probably still be working if it hasn\u2019t been broken).

Seat cushion conforms to slight middle dip of the chair padding, and retains cushion thickness, after getting up. No sliding forward or around, and a decent cushion weight keeps it in place all the time. If I rock to both chair sides, I feel the cushion compressing around its' edges. Cushion cover is non-slip on bottom, and a 1" square SAMPLE of the inside blue lattice-work material, that buckles when pressed. This demonstrates how the air between the lattice squares, allows compression where needed. AGAIN--great QUALITY ! and MADE IN UTAH..U.S.A. / The principle of compressing the air-filled lattice work, should be progressively softer with lighter weight......I'd say over 220 pounds is the effective limit for the Ultimate. Price seems a lot, but there's a few reasons, making it a good buy. At the least, sitting has improved, with this cushion. Remove cushion cover to launder in cold water, then tumble in low heat. (The sample of the lattice inside, reminds me of the chex cereal design.) UPDATE 6/27/2014 --Still works like brand new----does not flatten out after use...returns to full thickness. / Because of how I sit and move a lot in chair, pad does slip forward sometimes, but hey, SLIDE IT BACK ! / note..front of pad had strap to carry or move it by --- each side of cushion is slightly different, whichever you like facing up. A good investment for those who sit. UPDATE UPDATE; a BIT UNDER SIZE TO COVER MY OFFICE CHAIR SEAT. Would be better for smaller people, but it's heavier people like me, need it most. Well, better than NO cushion. UPDATE 2/2/2017 still like new.", "label": 1}

I am a professional athlete and have a very low blood pressure and a resting heart rate of below 40. So when I need to sit still in front of the computer, cold feet are almost inevitable. In addition, for health reasons I keep the temperature in my house below 70 F. I was looking for a solution to cold feet for some time, and best I found so far were woolen socks and a yoga mat under my table.
I was quite skeptical when I got these slippers, but from the first moment they were really convincing. First off, the slippers themselves are well made. The material they are made of is sturdy and yet soft and comfortable. On the inside, the fabric is even softer, slightly padded. They have an adjustable opening that doesn\u2019t open too far (I am a size 12) so that you have to slip in first until your toes touch the front, then pull up the part that covers your heels. Once done, they fit nicely and sit snugly on your feet.
The energy for the heating comes from two standard charging batteries, as you would also get to charge your phone on the go. They come with a dual USB-C cable so that you can charge both batteries using only one USB outlet. The charging time is about 1 h. Then you have to connect the batteries via a cable and put them in a small pocket for each slipper that sits on top. of it. They are rather easy to insert in the pocket. I was surprised how comfortable the slippers were even after inserting the batteries; they just add a light weight on top of your foot, which you very soon forget about.
The slippers have a button on the outside that you push to switch them on. They have three settings indicated by three different colors. I kept them on the highest level and had them on for an hour a day. The batteries lasted for three days. That is good enough for me as already after ten minutes my feet began to be nice and warm. The good thing is, when you are physically fit as I am, it\u2019s enough to get your feet warm. Once they are warmed up, and the arteries are widened, they manage to stay warm without any additional help.
If you suffer from cold feet, I can recommend these slippers. They are well made, they work, the batteries are ok, and they absolutely do the job they promised to do.", "label": 1}

This arrived in the mail yesterday, and as luck would have it (haha!), my daughter came home in khakis completely covered in black marks, so I got to test it right away. I followed the directions on the back of the bottle and treated the entire week's worth of uniform clothes (so some stains had had a chance to set in). After one round through the washer, about 90% of the stains were gone. I did a second treatment on a few spots and rewashed everything, and those khakis I would have otherwise thrown out were completely stain-free when I removed them from the washer. There was also a white shirt from earlier in the week that had gotten paint on it in art class, and that came out completely, too. The only stains that didn't come out were a spot that looked like it may have been from a Sharpie and a grass stain; honestly, though, these could have already gone through the laundry once before and set in, so I can't say for sure that this wouldn't have worked on them.
I didn't notice this anywhere in the description, but this product does have a slight smell, kind of like baby powder. Also, it leaves a soapy residue on anything you spray it on, and clothes required extra rinses to come clean.
Overall, I'm amazed at how this took really tough stains out of clothes, and I am so glad to have found something that will save us from having to constantly replace clothing. Because I went through about two-thirds of a bottle on a single load, I think I'll be buying this at Target from now on since their website has it much cheaper.", "label": 1}

It cost me $150 to find local movers to get it from garage, through house, and into office room. So there's additional costs. It take TWO BIG STRONG GUYS to move this thing around. Any bcomments about easy moving, easy assembly, are, in my opinion, disconnected from reality.
The manual SAYS NOTHING, nothing at all about connecting leg module which is tricky enough so the legs on mine are still unattached as I write this. I'm scouring the web for assembly instructions but NOTHING. I'm frustrated, have cut my fingers trying to attach legs, and have discovered 1. ONLY ONE YEAR WARRANTY, that's not good, after 1year, you pay for any issues, 2. top height it accommodates is 6 Feet. You judge that bit of info, 3. while it's described as having great features, also says cheaply made overall.
Serious thoughts about a return ... though I just paid $150 to get in in my house. Will update when/if legs get attached. How doesa clip in photo come off, to allow the leg module to hang, without ruining clips. Expensive products, which don't come with instructions, should be avoided like a plague!
UPDATE: Here is an Amazon customer who was able to explain an assembly step Not in the sorry excuse for a manual, or anywhere else on the web.
maurice talley answered:
"The manual isn't clear at all in this area. There are two posts, one on each side, that the leg bracket slides on to. Before you can attach it you must remove the locking clip from each post which is not stated in the manual. Once the clip is taken off of each post everything makes since. Just lift it up and place the post on each side through the hole in the leg attachment and then slide the clip over the post to lock the leg attachment into place. The key, identify the posts and remove those clips which require a squeezing motion to unlock them. I hope this helps." Thank you so very much Maurice Talley!", "label": 0}

I tried 2 different brand before this one and like this the best.
One company's product left a thick film on the face and within hours it was peeling off from my face.
The other company's product, I had to spray and massage into my face and within hours it was still peeling off from my face. They Both were kinda hard to apply on my face.
But this one didn't peel off and there was no massaging in needed.
So the application process is a bit tricky so i hope my review helps.
If you're using this at the end of your skin care routine i dont think it's necessary to spray on the mist prior to applying the film patch but here it goes
Spray the mist over your face evenly please don't over spray your face where it's dripping down your chin.
Just a slight mist would do.
Apply the film onto your face the pink is out side and there's a slight white cast that side is for your face.
Please please try not to touch the film (inside of the patch cause it is super fragile)
Make sure your hand is not wet either cause the collagen patch will melt.
Apply slight pressure and press onto your face and the pink fabric will kinda automatically come off.
If your face is too wet you wont be able to see too much of the film's whiteness and if your face is too dry, the film wont stick to your face. So delicate this thing~!! So just the right amount of moisture to start off.
After you peel off the pink fabric spray the collagen mist over the film and while you're at it spray all over your face and neck avoid spraying your eyes it kinda stings.
I noticed that right after the mist dried, the face felt a bit tight they say this is the collagen working in your skin. I slept on it and noticed that the next day my face felt more moisturized and had less dryness from the sunscreen that i use to have.
I used it every other day for the past 2 weeks and noticed that my skin started to have this glow and less fine lines. I sprayed my face with the mist occasionally even when i wasn't using the patch. Hey it's collagen what have i got to lose?", "label": 1}

I'm not going to get too deep into the electrical definition of inductance - but for the sake of argument - it's measuring the electrical resistance between one foot and the other. It does some pretty fancy calculations based on your height (that you tell the software) - your weight, which it measures pretty accurately... and it tries to figure out your body fat percentage. Then, it does some more math and will figure your lean body mass.
Overall, it's a pretty neat technology... but it's not 100% accurate. Now - just to be clear - it's not a flaw with the Fitbit Aria specifically, just in all inductance scales. There's no way for the scale to know how hydrated you are... if you're retaining water or excessively dehydrated - it throws off the calculations between fat mass and lean mass. I've had it jump 3-4% body fat in the space of a day. It's best to watch trends in the readings... it's not a medical grade device, but if you weigh yourself at the same time every day, get into a routine... then you can watch trends in your body weight and what it says is your body fat %%.
Knowing that - I'd still recommend this scale.
It's fairly simple and straight forward to set this up - get it connected to your wireless network and associated with your Fitbit account. Just follow the instructions closely. It will connect up to your wireless network - it'll sync with your Fitbit account almost instantaneously.
Fitbit has a very very nice ecosystem of health monitoring products. For me, it's not just the bands and it's not just the scales... but you can use their app to view how you sleep, how active you are, resting HR... and with this scale, your weight and (relative) body fat %%, lean body %%... and you're able to have some objective numbers to watch.
I'm giving this 4 stars because as neat as the technology is, it's not perfect, but just to be clear, it's not a problem specific to the Aria", "label": 1}

When I opened this bag of TruProteins whey I immediately noticed something was wrong with the texture of the powder, it looked highly processed and "grainy" like sand. Real whey protein IS NOT GRAINY looking, quite the contrary actually and the powder is very thin to the point that it sticks to your skin.

I can confirm that I did receive the correct chair - Model# DK-EC9006-Black-FDW. FDW is Factory Direct Wholesale - this company sold their chairs through Costco recently, and as of June 2019, they are sold at Sam's, so they are a known, trusted company.
First impressions - I ordered this chair on a Monday night, and I received it on Friday... much quicker than I expected. The chair arrived as scheduled on a large truck. I wasn't sure if the driver would only leave it at the curb, but he brought it into my garage. Upon request, he transferred the box from the pallet onto a dolly I had ready, and he took the pallet with him. The unit was packaged very well, with multiple layers of cardboard, wood, and dolphin skin wrap. It was very easy to attach the foot part, and this was accomplished in less than five minutes.
This chair has been in use now for two weeks, and has run multiple times per day. The rollers are very strong, and do run from the neck to glutes. The foot rollers are also very strong, and the air bags work very well. I had tried an Infinity chair (probably the most expensive chair on the market), and although this chair is not quite as good, it is also about 1/15th the cost. As far as value goes, I don't think you can do better. I did a lot of research, and this chair is the best value I found. The only question at this point is durability... I hope it holds up for at least a few years. I don't often leave product reviews, but I felt obligated to do so in order to counter the reviews that suggested you will receive a different chair. I can't speak to those claims, but I can confirm that I did receive the correct chair and so far it is fantastic!", "label": 1}

In Europe, and many parts of the world, Crohn's isn't treated with drugs as much as in the USA. Other countries prescribe "nutrition therapy," whereby solid foods are eliminated and a liquid sludge is mechanically pumped into the stomach via a nasal feeding tube. The sludge has all of the nutrients required by a person, including proteins and vitamins, etc. Unfortunately, the sludge is not palatable and many people report that they cannot stand the taste.
Hence, we tried a Boost Plus liquid regiment. Our son drank 7 of these per day for a couple of months, and the drugs were all eventually eliminated. We now continue the mostly-Boost diet, and only have added some safe foods for a rescue from the monotonous repetition of the liquid diet. The Boost has led to an accelerated growth rate (getting close to normal), and has allowed for healing of the GI track due to being gentle on the system. Our son also likes the taste better than alternative formulas (hence we buy these bulk Brikpaks).
We, of course, worked with our doctor and GI specialist, and have been on this plan for about six months now. If you or a family member are suffering from Crohn's or a similar GI condition, this therapy should be a consideration, as it is easy and effective.
I am not a doctor, so please do not consider this to be medical advice. I am simply a cautiously optimistic parent whose son is thankfully in remission from a nasty disease. Good luck, and please feel free to comment on this with your own experiences with similar conditions and/or treatments. RR

After a year on the "mostly-Boost" regiment, our son did start to get some relapses of his Crohn's conditions (after trying to drop the percentage to 50% Boost). We now administer a bi-weekly immuno-suppressant but we continue the partial Boost diet for helping to keep his growth maximized. We are still happy we tried the all-Boost diet, but it became impractical after a while to keep him on an 80 to 100% diet.", "label": 1}

These guys are awesome. I bought this test thinking that it would just be an automated thing that I sent in and got the results for a few days later. But when I read the instructions for conducting the test, which were incredibly clear and easy to understand, I saw that I needed to send all 10 samples in together. I think the listing on Amazon says this, but I must have missed it. My intention was to use 1/2 the samples at one time and 1/2 the samples at another time. So I called their customer service and they were extremely friendly and willing to accommodate my request. They also were more than happy to let me pay the difference in price between the 5 business day sample and 1 business day sample to speed up the test results.
Their website is really easy to use when you're gathering your test samples. You just need to mark each sample with a unique name, then log on to the website and add that name along with the time tested and then ship your samples in a provided prepaid envelope along with a unique PIN that they prepare for you on the website. The turnaround time for my 1 business day tests was less than 24 hours after they received the samples.
As for the testing, I'm not a chemist or inspector, but the results were fairly consistent with other facts that I happen to know about what's going on in the locations that I tested.
I cannot recommend these guys enough. You won't regret buying this test kit.

What\u2019s in it:
Thiamin: Vitamin B1, thiamin, or thiamine, enables the body to use carbohydrates as energy. It is essential for glucose metabolism, and it plays a key role in nerve, muscle, and heart function.
Riboflavin: Vitamin B2 is a water-soluble vitamin that is flushed out of the body daily. It helps the body break down carbohydrates, proteins and fats to produce energy, and it allows oxygen to be used by the body.
Niacinamide: a form of vitamin B3, an essential nutrient that supports many cellular processes
It uses an enormous dose of B12 and B6.
B6: one of the B vitamins that benefits the central nervous system. It is involved in producing the neurotransmitters serotonin and norepinephrine, and in forming myelin.
B12: may benefit your body in impressive ways, such as by boosting your energy, improving your memory and helping prevent heart disease.
The proprietary blend contains about the amount of caffeine as the average cup of coffee.
Guarana Seed Extract is used for weight loss, to enhance athletic performance, as a stimulant, and to reduce mental and physical fatigue. It is a frequent addition to energy and weight loss products.
L-Tyrosine may improve mood and cognitive and physical performance.
Eleuthero Root Extract: Eleuthero is also commonly called Siberian ginseng. Often used to boost energy, metabolism, and physical performance.
I found this supplement to be very effective. In my experience I would not recommend taking it within 10 hours of bedtime. Based on the enormous dose of several of the B vitamins I wouldn\u2019t recommend taking this supplement regularly but as an occasional supplement it definitely works.

Why on earth would a company purposely include the most horrible neurotoxins that we have been attempting to remove from our environments for years?
\"Plant-derived\" = From a MINE!
These so-called \"plant-derived\" minerals are apparently from the TJ Clark Mine in Utah. The reason they are called \"plant-derived\" is that the mine has ancient plant matter that did not undergo complete fossilization, and they use the soft, crumbly material from this mine for their products. It is sold by several companies, among them TJ Clark and Youngevity, and sold under several other company names, with the \"plant-derived minerals\" or \"colloidal mineral\" designation.
Here's the problem, and perhaps they are so clueless they don't realize it: during sedimentation - when plant matter begins to become rock - it absorbs and fixes minerals that are not necessarily good for you - among them, the heavy metal neurotoxins mercury, cadmium, arsenic, and lead, plus the Alzheimer's-promoting combination of aluminum and fluorides.

My skin is more sensitive and I have a rare skin condition that causes me to feel uncomfortable very easy. I also have arthritis and neurological conditions that make it challenging to hold a regular wash cloth. So, I ordered a variety of products to see which one I prefer best. After trying different sponges and loofahs, I ordered more of these. Here\u2019s why:
Pros\u20261. Even though it\u2019s silicone, the long bristles allow the body wash to lather and it holds the soap as you move to different parts of your body. Note that I tried a different silicone loofah sponge with shorter bristles and it did not lather up the same. Since the long bristles hold the soap, I use less soap than I did with the mesh loofah balls.
2. The bristles are very soft on my skin and don\u2019t irritate it at all. The flip side is good to use when I have an area of skin that needs a little more elbow grease to clean. It\u2019s actually good to remove the remnants of barrier cream and other medications, dry skin, etc.
3. These are so easy to keep clean. After my shower, I just put them on the 3rd rack of my dishwasher. It has a sanitizer cycle. The bristles don\u2019t get completely dry, so I just let them finish drying on the drying rack. With the mesh loofah balls, I had to put in a mesh bag after each use, wash with my laundry, and hang to dry. With these, I know they are completely clean.
Cons\u20261 They don\u2019t have a loop to hang up on a hook or to hold on your hand. It would make it easier to hold on to if there was a strap on the back to hold it on. It would also be easier to hang dry if there was a string to hold it up. I have cute decorative soap dishes that I put it on to dry in the shower, so I make it work.", "label": 1}

I went through a pretty rough patch in my life. I lost 2 dogs, 1 cat, and my best friend/roommate to cancer all within 2 years.

I also had a horrible headache when I was taking it. I felt like was a mindless zombie on Welbutrin. I decided to stop taking the Welbutrin before it settled into my system.
I figured I would try and go the more natural route after reading all the side effects of the other anti-depressant medications they have available. I first tried [[ASIN:B00014DT1W Kira St Johns Wort Tablets - 45 Tablets]]. These seemed to help, but it was very mild and not consistent in keeping my mood up.
Then...there was Nature Made Sam-E. I tried some of the store brand Sam-E's to try and keep costs down, however, none of the other brands even came close to working as good as Nature's Made. And if you shop around you can usually find a buy one get one free at Walgreens, Giant, CVS, or even Amazon!
This stuff helped me through the roughest time of my life. I've been using Sam-e well over 2 years now and if I even missed one dose I would immediately notice a huge change in my mood. I have been taking 1 400mg pill a day since I started. Once in a while I would take took 2 or 3 in a day.
I just started taking 1 pill every other day to give my body a break because I do not like to be dependent on any type of medication. But for those super hard times, this stuff really helped to get me through.
I highly recommend trying Sam-E. Especially before trying any prescription anti-depressants. It is a natural approach to overcoming depression, has low to no side effects at all (I never experienced any), and even if it does not help with improving your mental health, at least it is supporting your joints. ;)

The important issues are nicely laid out in two very good articles by Will Brink and readily available on the internet: \"What's in your Creatine?\" and \"What's Really in Your Supplements? - An Update on Creatine\". I proceeded to order some CreaPure-sourced creatine and was surprised that, for the very first time, the stuff had absolutely no bitter taste to it: the suspicious supplement had been the only one with the weird soapy taste, but *every* other creatine I had purchased had a mild bitterness to it, which I'd just assumed to be intrinsic to creatine itself, rather than a sign of impurity. Subsequently, I've bought several of the few products that use exclusively CreaPure, and found them to be similarly free of these widespread off-flavors. There is still no proof that the common creatine contaminants responsible for these flavors (dicyandiamide or dihydrotriazine) are harmful -- but why anyone (let alone a life extensionist!) would knowingly put high (relative to likely dietary intakes) levels of organoleptically-detectable impurities of unknown toxicity into hir body is beyond me, especially with a CreaPure product as inexpensive as this one available.", "label": 1}

I was a swimmer and biker but not too much a runner. My knee has had meniscus surgery recently and my Doc said the cartilage between the joints looked good. So, what the heck just happened? I was on crunches for a month because I could barely walk without my knees feeling like there was glass rolling around in there. My sister is a nurse, she suggested that I might be loosing my lube in my knees at my age. I read a few specs on the different types like this. I tried this. Within 3 days, I noticed a difference. Yes, it worked. after 2 weeks, I didn't need the crutches. after 2 months, I was taking long walks again. After 6 months I ventured to take a backpacking trip! After 1 year I had forgotten that I had any problems. Sometimes I stop taking them for a couple of weeks. I do start to notice that I start to get a few symptoms returning. But, I never want to go through that again. And, maybe I saved my knee from loosing cartilage. I have been taking 2 a day for a couple of years now. I went on a 3 day 46 mile hike and no pain. My knees were fine. Now, I don't have arthritis and I haven't had any knee injuries other that that surgery. I also knew that my cartilage was intact. It had to be that my lube wasn't what it used to be. That is the only thing I can figure that was happening. This defiantly does the trick for me. And, yes, I do believe that the joint shield berry extract they say helps protect from acids in the joint does work as fast as they say. I hear that other types take a couple of months to work. I haven't tried them though. I just used this so I can't compare. I am always on the look out for the 2 for 1 sales at CVS and Wallgreens. Wallmart has some too for a good price.

But to actually USE the product you have to keep your fingers on the metal edges. I did finally discover that contrary to the instructions you can also keep them on the small V at the base\u2026basically you just need to have two fingers on the metal to complete the current loop. (That alone worries me! I have another device that it\u2019s similar and it doesn\u2019t require sending a charge through my body.) Once your fingers are on the base you have to figure out how to move this across your face while keeping your fingers in constant contact. It is thoroughly awkward!

Big enough for the things you need without being to big to mount in areas that will limit how you move or sit. Quality is on par with 5.11 or Maxpedition.
Materials and build quality
Stitching is consistent and well done. The zipper is high quality and the pulls are easy to us The hook and loop (velcro) used throughout is a good high quality and seems like it will last well even with hard use.
Layout and size
The IFAK has plenty of room for essentials. I was able to fit a combat gauze, OPA, small trauma shears, and a full booboo kit in the pack. You would have a hard time fitting a large full size trauma compress in the pack with everything else, but it could be done. I prefer a IFAK will a little room that I can get into ( like the booboo kit ) that forces me to inventory things regularly. They elastic layout on the inside is well thought out and provides good retention for large and small items. You\u2019ll need to experiment a little to get everything to fit how you want it. There is room under the external elastics at the hinge of the pack for a tourniquet but it's snug- not a bad thing. One of my older style TQ\u2019s also fit well in the retention strap that doubly secures the IFAK to the velcro backing.
Negatives
Really very minor stuff. The IFAK out of the package is meant for a horizontal orientation out of the package, and there's no provision for mounting it vertically. A couple of vertical MOLLE straps added to the back would be great for taking up less real estate on a belt or vest.
I don\u2019t lose a lot of sleep about all my gear color matching, and the black is a great option, but adding a brown or gray seems like a great choice for future changes to this well thought out little pack.
Conclusion
Really impressed with this little pack. For someone that needs a IFAK that can carry a pretty good load, yet not get in the way this is a good option.", "label": 1}

If you're a handy man type, this will pose no problem for the installation. The white color matched the white porcelain of the toilet. The base of the Toto Drake is longer than Toilevator's 22.3 inch length and extends off the platform 1 inch in the back. It doesn't effect stability. I know it can hold just over 300 lbs. without structural failure, in the 2 months we have had it.
I purchased the item because there were no ADA or otherwise round toilets available 3.5\" taller than the Drake and this Toto has been great operationally and for longevity of parts. With the Toilevator's 3.5\" lift, I kept my original toilet, and my wife's knees are much easier to extend when she stands up. I was rather concerned about the weight, but it said 500 lbs. was the limit. It has proved sound. It has been easy to clean. The toilet hasn't shifted or slid on the base. The bolts extended higher than the top of the Toto toilet base. I just purchased a deep cap rather than cut them. All needed items are in the kit, except for the deeper bolt cap covers. I also needed a new bowl gasket (seals the tank to the bowl) as I took off the tank to make handling much easier for me.

The only issue for me were the closet bolts that were supplied (These connect the toilet base and the Toilevator to the sewer flange at the floor). The heads of the bolts were round, not flat, and appeared to be galvanized. They should be stainless steel. They would not fit under the flange. I simply ground the head and sides down a bit till they fit, and applied plumbers grease to the threads to prevent the bolt and nut becoming rusted together.

My weight combined with arthritis means I need a very comfortable, supportive, cushioned seat or I'm dying. After a couple of hours, my hip joints feel like somebody has taken a white-hot pick and hammered it into my joints.
I've had seat cushions in the past, and they do offer some comfort, but tend to (given my size) compress to paper thinness quickly. Although it's expensive, I decided to take a shot on the Ultimate Purple No-Pressure Seat Cushion. I am SO glad I did! It's like sitting on a cloud. The first time my rump rested on this cushion, I thought I'd ascended to heaven and was sitting on a purple throne of the Gods. I swear I heard angels singing.

Recently, the opportunity came up to purchase this one for a discounted price in exchange for an honest review and I jumped at the opportunity. I had just gotten over being sick which had left my skin in terrible shape, sensitive and broken out, and I thought it would be a great chance to really see what the Konjac could do. I used it exclusively, without additional cleansers, twice a day for one week and overall I'm happy with it. The packaging says this sponge can be used on face and body but I only used it on my face. I would get a second sponge to use on my body if I wanted to use it for both and I'm planning to do that.
PROS:
--It's super soft, gentle doesn't even begin to describe how soft this is on the skin. It's even gentle enough to use on the sensitive skin right around the eyes.
--It's easy! The instructions are simple and you don't even need to use any additional cleansers (but you can use your favorite cleanser if you want to).
--It comes with a built-in hanging string so you can hang it up and allow it to dry well in between uses.
--It's the perfect size for face or body and fits well in your hand; not too big so that it's awkward and not too small so you can't get a good grip on it.
--It does not irritate sensitive skin. (Yes, I would know!)
--Is not drying.
CONS:
--By day 3 and 4, I felt like I needed a bit more exfoliation in typical areas such as around the chin and nose. (I usually use a linen cloth with a gentle cleanser and that does the job well). I felt like the Konjac needed a bit more if it were going to the sole product for cleansing.
When the week was up, my face had really settled down and was much improved with a decrease in redness. Success! I'm going to keep it in the rotation with my other products but I won't continue using it exclusively. My next step is to use it with my regular cleansing products and see how that goes. I'll also continue to use it at times when my ultra-sensitive skin needs a break from products or medications.", "label": 1}

There is nothing better after a long day that a few of your favorite alcoholic beverages. But if you decide to have those beverages outside of your home, you run the risk of getting a DUI. Everyones body processes alcohol differently and depending on what you've eaten or done, your body may process alcohol differently each day. That is why I think that it is wonderful to have a breathalyzer with you to provide a quick reminder of your level of intoxication. With this breathalyzer and an Uber account, there is no reason a DUI should even be a concern any more.
The breathalyzer comes in a handy drawstring pouch with an instruction book. The back panel opens to reveal 5 washable mouth pieces. I definitely recommend changing mouth pieces between each reading and washing them after each has been used. I flip them up in the holder after they have been used. The breathalyzer takes 3 AAA batteries (not included). It is easy to use, just slip a mouth piece into the side, press and hold the button until it beeps, wait for the 15 second countdown, and then blow until it beeps again. It will then give you your BAC in either %BAC, %.BAC, or mg/L. Just press the button to change the reading. Caution is displayed when you are from .2 to .499% BAC and Danger is displayed and the beeping blasts when you are at .5% BAC or above. The beeping is one of the most annoying sounds in the world, but it gets its point across. It seems to be rather accurate when tested of various friends. Make sure not to eat or drink anything at least 20 minutes before testing for accurate results.
This would be great for checking your children when coming home from outside of the home.

First off, as it's held together with screws, which will, of course, loosen with repeated use, use metal \"lock\" washers when assembling it (you'll need 8, which have to be bought separately). Second, as the tubing is quite thin (maybe an inch in diameter), it can only be used under an armchair, loveseat, or sofa that has a FLAT bottom (if the chair has legs that are over an inch high, you'll have to get a couple of 2x4's - or however high the bottom of the chair is off the ground - and cut some grooves into them to slide the Riser legs under and then slide the 2x4's and the Riser under the chair). Third, as the Riser has two cross braces in the front, this product obviously cannot be used with a recliner. And, lastly, since this product is made of hollow metal tubing, the vertical supports will likely \"wobble\" - if not get damaged i.e. bent - if used by someone over, say, 200 lbs who has weak legs and, therefore, has to mainly use their arms to egress from a chair.
BTW, for added assistance in getting in and out of chairs (esp for individuals who have weaker knees/legs), I recommend the UPEASY POWER SEAT or SEAT ASSIST the former of which I've paired with the Riser for added stability/security (and which MUST be used on top of a flat, level, relatively hard surface for it to work properly [I simply discarded the seat cushion from my aunt's chair, put a piece of plywood on the chair, put the Power Seat on top of the wood, and then covered the seat of the Power Seat, which is a bit on the hard side, with a slip-on cushion for greater comfort]).", "label": 1}

I went to Cosmetology School years ago, I haven't had a pair a shears like this since School. I've been cutting hair for 25 years, just family & friends (although I did graduate Cosmetology & I'm a licensed Aesthetician.) I really only wanted to know how for when I had kids, I didn't want to work in the field. I've been cutting hair ever since.
These hair cutting shears and thinning shears are better than the ones I received. The squared off edges are so much safer when cutting hair if children. I can't say how many times I've poked around the ear section.... The resistance knob is always great, every pair slowly loosens with every hair cut and eventually you have to tighten it up and this feature works great for that. My husband needed a hair cut anyway, and was thrilled to test out the new ones. That rubber is great, I have had that with my originals, they would tap together often, but not with these! Great idea! I love the length of the blades, gives me more control over the cut,not too long or too short. They felt natural and cut very smooth. The ONLY issue I had was the finger holes are a little on the small side, but didn't give me any real problems.
Thinning shears always come in handy with someone with extremely thick hair, like one of my four boys and my husband's best friend. These are great.

There are five, color coded, bands. The purple is the lightest resistance and the green is the heaviest resistance. In between there is blue, yellow, and red. (I wonder about that ordering a bit, since it's not really intuitive. If you order colors on the spectrum you'd go: purple, blue, green, yellow, red instead of purple, blue, yellow, red and green ... the purple is obviously the thinnest band but the yellow, red and green look to be about as thick so the only way to be sure which is which is to either memorize the order or pull and go by feel.)
Each end of each band has a carabiner on it, that hooks into handles. There's also a velcro loop that you can run the tube through after you've attached it to a bar. There's even a door mount, that can slide underneath a door or hook at the top of a door if you are on the side of the door that opens away from you.
I find the easiest, and simplest thing is just to hook the handles onto one (or more) of the bands and then place one of my feet at the center of the band. I also use these for basic back stretches. I keep one of the bands at my desk and try to get up every hour or so and just grab the tube at convenient points with both hands and then pull my arms out and back until they are straight, and then I try it at a cross angles, with one arm going up to the left and the other down and to the right, and then vice versa.
I like resistance tubes because I tend to do my workout at home, mostly using bodyweight. I can work my chest and legs and shoulders that way, but it's more difficult to do anything with the back unless you have some kind of resistance. These are enough to get a good back workout. I can strap them to the door and then do a rowing exercise, for example.
I like that the kit as a whole comes with a convenient carrying bag that easily stores all components.

No need to bring a separate bottle, store it, worry about kids or animals getting into it, etc. Make it and use it in one go, on the fly.
This particular unit does the electrolysis need to make the bleach without an issue. The problem is in the nozzle for spraying. It's designed to have a pressure system that allows you to squeeze the trigger multiple times and the unit sprays the bleachy water in a fine mist continuously. Sounds great right? Except the nozzle gets clogged within minutes, and a safety valve starts rediverting the stream back into the bottle.
Why would this happen? Because you're literally converting table salt into bleach in an imperfect system. If even a small clump of sodium remains (which is highly likely) it can and will easily make its way to the nozzle and clog it. And how do you unblock a pressurized system, filled with bleach water? Carefully, wearing clothes you don't care about getting bleach on.
I bought this mainly to make bleach with. I plan to 3D print a small cap for this, and simply use it to make the bleach I need, then pour it into a proper dollar store spray bottle and use it on demand. While it would have been great to be able to use the sprayer directly from the bottle, it's not worth returning, given the price of the unit. You could also use a pin to enlarge the hole, but then getting the aim right is kind of a pain.
If you're looking for one that works as a spray bottle as well, pick another design. This one sucks. If you just want it for making bleach cheaply? Grab it, and look for a cap for it over on thingiverse, where it will eventually be posted. :)", "label": 0}

After I had my daughter I was overweight for 3 years, just couldn't get the baby weight off. I worked at a gym and was exercising, but it just wasn't all coming together. The Bodybugg helped me so much! The basis of it is calories in versus calories out.
It's simple mathematics. Every pound of fat is equal to 3,500 calories. So either you have to eat that much less or work that much off. Some people can just decide to work out a little more and lose weight, but that wasn't working for me. For me the Bodybugg motivated me so much by being able to see the numbers. I decided I wanted to lose a pound a week, so I needed a 500 calorie per day deficit. If I worked out a lot and burned 3,000 calories a day I could eat a lot. If I was a couch potato and only burned 1,800 calories I was only able to eat 1,300 that day. Anyway, seeing it all in numbers and graphs helped A LOT!
The Bodybugg isn't for someone looking for an easy way to lose weight. If you aren't committed to spending a lot of time on it, it probably won't work. In order to do it and be really successful you need to know almost exactly how many calories you are eating. That means weighing your food. It's a pain to do. I was weighing my chicken, pasta, fruit, veggies, cereal... everything basically. I packed all my lunches and snacks and logged them before I left my house. If I was out and got a snack I put the calories in my phone and logged it when I got home. It's time consuming and hard, but completely worth it. For about 6 months I did this religiously and lost 40 pounds. I am still down around my goal. Sometimes I put my Bodybugg on for a couple weeks if I need a little kick in the butt. I've recommended it to a few friends and unfortunately most of them didn't have the patience ortime to do the calorie counting necessary to be successful. I try to warn everyone how difficult it is and how you have to be prepared to weigh and count everything you eat, even condiments.

My first use of the powder was in Turkey Sloppy Joes. As you know, using turkey in any dish and you lose some flavor as opposed to using beef. Adding the mushroom powder amped up the flavor and gave the mixture a deeper, almost beefier taste.
The next use of the powder was as a topping on baked Zucchini. But a tiny amount of olive oil on top of sliced Zucchini \u2026 sprinkle on a little mushroom powder and a little Romano cheese powder on the top and then baked \u2026 so good. Not only tasty but also healthy for you. Just remember, when using as a vegetable topping to use it sparingly, you don\u2019t want to overwhelm the taste of the Zucchini or overwhelm the taste of the cheese.
The third use of the powder was in Lentils. Add a scope of mushroom powder to the Lentils (after they were cooked) and you can impart a \u2018mushroomy\u2019/almost beefy type flavor to the Lentils. Cook the Lentils with some carrots, celery, onions and then add the mushroom powder \u2026 scope over some cooked rice and you have a full, delicious meal that even the most strident meat-eater will like.
I haven\u2019t tried it in tea or a smoothie yet \u2026 but I am looking at making a stew fairly soon and I know that I\u2019ll be adding this powder to the stew. I\u2019ll need to experiment with the amount of powder to use as a stew needs a heavier/meatier taste than the other meals I\u2019ve made. Oh \u2026 and know that I think of it, maybe adding some of this powder to some Zucchini bread would be good. Hey, there are all kinds of options for this powder.
I can\u2019t really comment to heavily on the \u2018healthy immunity\u2019 claims on the product page but as this product is organic, vegan, non-gmo and gluten free and doesn\u2019t list any negative ingredients or additives then the product is probably as healthy as fresh mushrooms.

I love my face brush! It has stopped spinning and I am devastated. Is it covered under warranty?
Hello Danielle,
I am quite sorry to hear that. Could you please check if the batteries out of power? If necessary, please replace with new batteries and have a try.
If still not work, you can contact us here. We would like to send you a new one soon.
Look forward ot hearing from you soon.

Nope, the batteries aren't dead. In fact I have probably thrown away a dozen good batteries thinking my daughter was forgetting to turn it off. I think a little metal piece from the battery compartment fell off.
Hello Danielle,
I am quite sorry to hear that. For the inconvenience, I would like to send you a new replacement for free immediately. (No need to return the broken one.)\u3000Please confirm if the below shipping address is correct.
Look forward to hearing from you
Oh my gosh what a great blessing! Thank you kindly! Shipping address is correct. God bless
Thank you so much Bella! That's the best thing I've heard all all week.... What a tremendous blessing! Probably sounds silly that I am so grateful. Because of a rare blood disorder in the leukemia family I was on chemo for a bit & since then (a long time ago) i get the strangest most random uncommon infections. My least favorite is cellulitis on my face it makes me feel so ugly! Using my face brush helps keep my sensitive skin super clean & makes the cellulitis go away faster & occur significantly less. You have given me a huge blessing! I am so grateful! Thank you! You never know when or how a simple silly kindness is having an impact on someone & blessing them....", "label": 1}

Considering that, this is a great economical & climate friendly option. Someone else pointed out how it\u2019s shipped from New Zealand and thus has a carbon footprint due to the transportation involved. While this is true, I would say that if I only have to buy it once or twice a year, the footprint is no worse than the deodorants available to me locally which are all pkged in plastic and run out faster. This bar is actually more than is in most plastic deodorant dispensers and those companies are taking a lot of advantage because they can camouflage how little they give you in the giant opaque container.
Additionally, I just wanna say to the folks experiencing rashes in the reviews who seem to be switching over from big name brand anti-perspirants: when you make the switch away from anti-perspirants, you can experience a detox rash. It\u2019s because your skin is used to the chemicals. I had an awful reaction back when I first switched. But once you got through that initial couple of days/ weeks, it will be totally fine, and worth it. Your skin will actually feel better and it will be easier to shave. Because anti-perspirants are a carcinogen that you don\u2019t need to be putting right into your breast tissue every day. Take a chance! This product is super gentle, effective, and convenient compared to most natural deodorants I\u2019ve tried over the past 16 or so years since I made the switch.
It\u2019s such a relief to find a natural deodorant without anything in it that irritates my skin. I get giant psoriasis type rashes from anything with baking soda and they take a week of not wearing any deodorant just to heal. This has been quite soothing to the skin, keeps working, and is a pleasure to use knowing it doesn\u2019t come with any wasteful plastic. I just plopped it in a jam jar I had lying around. The scent is quite mild and after a couple of hours just smells faintly sweet, but that probably depends on your body chemistry.", "label": 1}

Also, quite appropriately, it is rated IPX7 waterproof. I view this level as being 'true' waterproof, since that rating is based upon no damage or water leakage when submerged up to a meter, for 30 minutes. So, it can be used in the shower or bath, which makes sense for a cleansing brush.
Operation is fairly simple, with one twist. A long press of the power button will activate the vibration massage. Then you can increase or decrease the speed using the respective + and - buttons. The twist comes into play when you want the phototherapy feature. A long press of the - button will engage that feature, and turn off the vibrating massage. If you want to include the massage aspect, merely press the + button to resume the massage (and then use the +/- buttons to achieve the desired massage speed).
The light cycles through it's color spectrum. I could not find a means to select or stop on any specific light color. It seems, you have to use the lighting rotation. Personally, I do not see the sense or value in that strict presentation for the phototherapy.
I like that it has it's own tray/base, which also acts as the wireless charging base. I would exercise caution, though, because the usb port is open/exposed. I would not want to get water in that opening. And definitley use caution if charging in a wet environment.
The silicone covering and bristles are top notch. The vibrating massage seems ample for cleansing and facial massage. The phototherapy is cute, but limited to the color rotation constantly cycling.
The product is a decent and able performer. I don't care for the control aspects involving phototherapy. I would prefer at least an option to select a specific light therapy. Based on these aspects, it receives a 4 - 4.25 star rating.", "label": 1}

As a home school mother, I like to foster her gifts so every once in awhile I will purchase something for her that allows her to grow her skills. That was my thinking when I purchased the Kangaroo Professional Grade Liquid Latex Make-up for my 16 year old daughter. I had no idea how crazy things would get after it arrived. . .
Just about every day, I sneak out for some exercise at the gym, leaving my 16 year old daughter and 10 year old son to do school work. Lately, returning home I have found all manner of creatures instead of my children including a zombie and a ghost with a slit throat. Of course it doesn\u2019t faze me because we are home schoolers and that is just normal.
WHAT IS IN THE BOX: One 4 ounce bottle of liquid latex. No applicators are included. The bottle looks nothing like the larger version in the picture on this listing as of the date of my review.
WHAT I LIKE: This is real latex. I know because my youngest has a latex allergy. I returned home to find my kids quickly scrubbing his chest one time when they decided to create a wound for him. They forgot. (Fortunately his skin just turns red temporarily and itches.)
Despite my son\u2019s latex allergy, his reaction has so far been mild. In fact my kids want to recreate their wounds and head to Wal Mart. (Not going to happen.)
Realistic special effects can be created without any other special tools.
It dries quickly.

I strongly advise that anybody reading this does not ingest these pills. How this product has an overall rating of four stars is something I cannot even begin to fathom. The amount of caffeine (205mg) along with an additional 25mg of ephedrine in a single pill is not only overstimulating, but makes me feel incredibly uncomfortable overall. It should be known that I am very experienced with high doses of many different types of stimulants. Just one pill from this bottle had my heart beating out of my chest, breaking out in cold sweats profusely, and had my anxiety levels through the roof. I honestly thought I was going to pass out, and it lasted for hours.
As for when my friend one, it was even worse. While she does not have nearly as much experience with stimulants as me (which I would assume the vast majority of buyers do not either), not only did she experience all of the aforementioned symptoms I did, but she also called me up more than four hours after she took one pill. She was breaking down and in tears. When I asked her why she was crying, all she could respond to me repeatedly was: \u201ceverything hurts, I\u2019m so nauseous but I can\u2019t throw up, I\u2019ve been in bed all day, and I can\u2019t even walk; everything just hurts way too much! I\u2019m in so much pain\u201d.
I can\u2019t help but wonder if what\u2019s in these pills is even ephedrine, or honestly, even caffeine for that matter! I take 200mg caffeine pills every single day and bought this to try a different brand, and despite saying on the label that this bottle contains about the same amount, it did not even come close to making me nor her feel the way caffeine usually makes us. Either that, or the combination of ephedrine and caffeine is not befitting.
In summary, coming from someone who is well-experienced with high doses of various types of stimulants, ingesting one pill from this bottle will make you feel like you poisoned yourself, and I\u2019m not exaggerating. Do not buy these pills. Nobody deserves to suffer the way my friend and I did. Concluded.", "label": 0}

I have nine cats, who all hate taking medicines more than a petulant toddler. The only way I can get a dewormer pill into any of them is with one of these gadgets. Even still, I have to break pills in half and shove the pill (in the tip of this syringe) all the way into their throat to get them to swallow. It's all about speed and finesse. You place the pill in the end of the syringe, and make sure the plunger is right up next to it, so that a very light push will eject the pill when you get it in position. You force their mouth open by pinching their cheeks, inserting your thumb gently on one side of their mouth (while they are attempting to bite you) and put the syringe into the very back of their throat, past the tongue but don't push it against the soft palate, just get it into the throat, push the pill out, then quickly remove your thumb and hold their mouth closed for about five seconds to ensure they've swallowed. It's an unpleasant task at best, and a downright agonizing one with some animals. But it's sometimes the ONLY way you can get medicine into your feline friends.
These syringe tips are made from soft, pliable material that bends and will not scrape or tear the delicate lining of your pet's mouth or throat. If you are careful, gentle, but yet firm, you can accomplish those pesky medication tasks without too much fuss. It is a lot harder to give a cat a pill with your fingers than with using one of these, so if you have a cat who likes to spit out her pills, or attempts to gnaw your fingers off when you try to give them anything, try these, because they make your job much easier.
I did receive this product free to try in exchange for sharing my review, and I am glad I got them, because I need to keep them on hand because of my large indoor AND outdoor cat population.

I'm not certain if they changed their formula or added new ingredients, but they totally wreaked havoc on my stomach. I lost count of how many trips I made to the bathroom over the 3-4 day period that the effects lasted. Sometimes I'd be on the toilet for 20+ minutes with cramping and bowel movements of varying consistencies.

Absolutely disappointed in these Neu shots now, and I don't plan on re-ordering them in the future :(
ORIGINAL: I am very impressed with these energy shots! The taste is kinda bad but the result was very pleasing. I drank the recommended half bottle before work and I noticed improvements in my motivation, energy, and my mood. It wasn't a euphoric feeling, but I was feeling noticeably \"happier\". Usually energy shots like 5-Hour, etc., just give me the jitters and make me sweat. This was a more mellow type of energy and the focus I experienced was a definite plus. The only negative side effect I've experienced so far is that, even after drinking on a full stomach, I started to feel hungry and my stomach churned a little bit about 1-2 hours after having the shot. All-in-all I'm very happy I came across this product. It's a little pricey in my opinion, but the fact that it actually works as advertised makes it well worth the cost. If you're skeptical on how these will effect you, I'd recommend trying the 3 quantity variety pack. That's what I started off with.", "label": 0}

I'm no health expert, so my information is really based on the little I've read about it. Apparently, vitamin C taken in larger doses cannot be absorbed as well by the cells. When this happens, much of what's ingested can easily get flushed through our system and down the toilet (yellow pee, anyone?).
If what I'm reading is correct, liposomes wrap around the vitamin C, so that they can be absorbed by the cells much more easily. When this happens, the vitamin C better does what it's supposed to do - boost the immune system, give you better skin, and fight tiredness and fatigue. I imagine during this era of concern over Covid-19, it wouldn't hurt to find better ways to boost one's immune system.
One thing that makes me wonder about this particular product, though, is this: If liposomes are like a kind of nano technology that encapsulates the vitamin C, what exactly is meant, then, when it says that these specific capsules do not contain genetically modified organisms? I may just have \"liposome technology\" and \"genetically modified organisms\" mixed up all together, so I probably just don't know what is meant by \"genetically modified,\" and why this particular brand, being not GMO, would be superior to its rivals on its use of liposome technology. Nevertheless, I still have this question.
So another question for this specific product is, does it work? Well, I don't know. I suppose I may not know the answer to that question until many months later, if I paid close attention to my skin, level of fatigue, and immune system. Is my urine still yellow? I take other vitamins other than this one, so I can't use this as a marker, either. What I think, though, is that if liposomes seem to be as great as they are supposed to be, it probably wouldn't hurt to use it as a means of boosting my vitamin C absorption.
Finally, a word on the labeling - white font on a yellow label makes for a *really* hard read, especially if one does not have great eyesight. I strained even with my glasses on, so I might encourage the makers to use another font color over their yellow label, in order to see the words more clearly.", "label": 1}

The same model, and it is working just fine and the heat seems to be more evenly distributed. The original one I received must have been defective. So GREAT customer service!
...................
First of all, I really like the feel of the fabric on this heating pad. The size is perfect for my back or my leg calves, depending on where I need it. Unlike a lot of pads I've had in the past, the innards do not bunch up or get soft and bent out of shape. The highest setting is not scalding like some other brands I've tried, which I am absolutely thrilled about.
But I have run into a few problems that I've been able to work around but may be of concern to others.
The most annoying problem for me is that while it claims to have a two-hour auto shut-off, it shuts off a lot sooner than that. I'm in the habit of using a heating pad at night while watching a movie, and when I have to turn it back on three times during a 90-minute film without commercial breaks, there's something wrong there.
There is also a notable design flaw. Unlike many pads that have their cords coming out from an edge seam, there is a large, hard plastic piece that is on the upper part of the pad (the soft part that you use against your body) that is incredibly uncomfortable if you happen to like to lean back in your chair while it's on your back. I realize that this is part of the removable power cord so you can wash the pad, but I wish it wasn't placed in such a way that makes using that corner of the pad uncomfortable.
Another thing I've noticed is that from time to time it does not feel like the heating element is distributing heat evenly throughout the length of the pad. This happens mainly after an hour of use.
None of these problems are so bad that I would wish to return it, but I do foresee looking for another model in the future.", "label": 1}

I have been trying to find ways to help me remember, so that I can do much better this year than last. I\u2019ve experimented with a variety of pill containers. The thing that attracted me to this particular container is that it allows you to sort out two weeks\u2019 worth of pills at one time. This was a big plus for me, as one of the reasons I tend to \u201cfall off\u201d is having to re-sort the pills every 7 days. This may not be much of a task for some people, but my schedule as a working mom of a Kindergartener makes even that simple task a monumental one. I got the opportunity to purchase this pill container at a discount in exchange for my honest review, and I wanted to see if sorting pills for 2 weeks at a time would help me stay on point with my vitamins.
Yes, it takes twice as long to fill the container but that is because you are sorting twice as many days\u2019 worth of pills. For me \u2013 THIS WAS WORTH IT! I was able to sort 14 days of pills, keep the container in my top desk drawer at work, and I remembered every single day to take them. This was primarily because that is the first drawer I open when I sit down at work in the morning, to pull out my glasses. The fact that I was not required to fill the container at the 7 day mark was tremendously helpful. I wound up replenishing week one at the 10 day mark, with no pressure. And this is why I saw success \u2013 because it was not a show stopper to fill the container at that point, I still had 4 days worth of pills sorted and ready to go.
The only con I noted was that the compartments are not as deep as other containers I have used. This is okay for now because I am not taking too many large pills at the moment. Once I add another fish oil pill to the mix, the compartments will be full.

Device is mostly easy to use, except even after reading the minimal (and tiny) instruction booklet I still can't figure out how to sync all channels, so it's kind of annoying when you have electrodes on complementary body parts doing different things.
The 30 levels are fine for EMS but the TENS I wish I could go a bit higher. For the money though it does just fine. And the 24 modes are split up 12 modes each for TENS and EMS. A way to customize modes/any customization options besides intensity/duration would be nice but isn't a deal breaker.
Time can only be increased in increments of 10 minutes but you can turn it off whenever so it's not a big deal.
The instruction booklet (which as mentioned before) is very short and, seriously, incredibly tiny, so the pictures showing where to place electrodes are as good as useless. However this isn't a big deal since Google exists. Still would be nice to have a handy reference you could actually use.
The only things keeping this a 4 star review instead of 5 is the modes are very confusing. The modes are chosen based on choosing a picture of either a massage (TENS) or activity/sport (EMS) but the pictures don't make a lot of sense in regards to what they device is actually doing. There's not really a rhyme or reason to it that I can find. It makes it really hard to decide what mode to actually use. That along with the impossibility of getting channels to actually sync dropped it down a star.
Cost/benefit of the device though is still very much worth it, especially with the 4 channels, 30 intensity levels, 12 TENS + 12 EMS modes, and quality build of the device. You can definitely feel it working and it seems to be helping, at least short term. I suggest giving it a shot.", "label": 1}

The are just not quite as good as the Manatea, in my opinion. Shark fans who drink tea should not be put off by my 4 instead of 5 stars.
And both sharks and manatees look funny (in a grim way) if you drink herbal teas with ingredients that make your tea red.
I use tea infusers like this one to hold those tea bags that don't have any strings, rather than loose leaf tea.
Pros: It is silicone, inexpensive, cute, and the tail joins the body snugly without being hard to use. Shark fans who drink tea will enjoy them. A stringless tea bag (like Republic of Tea, etc.) can be rolled loosely to fit into the shark. Doesn't stain, even with hibiscus leaves in the tea. Sharks!
Cons: They're a bit on the big side for my taste, and they don't grip the lip of the mug as effectively as the Manatea infuser does. If you drink tea from a teacup instead of a mug, it might be just about right.
Details:
The shark's head is a heavier, more rigid material than the tail, and the "mouth" that holds the edge of the mug is just slightly too tight for a standard mug so it wants to slide up and fall into the mug.
With some herbal teas, if I'm rushing off to a meeting I'll leave the tea bag in as I drink. I can still manage to sip out of a standard mug with a Manatea in it. With these sharks, that's out of the question. They just take up too much space above the mug. (Yes, I use these sharks and the Manatea at work. My co-workers already know I'm a little odd.)
That said, the tail is not so big that it displaces too much of the tea, and I think most people will take an infuser out of their cup before drinking.", "label": 1}

I do a lot of weightlifting, and the more variety of protein options there are, the better. I can't imagine using the same protein powder for years at a time. I'm always happy to try out a new option, and this offering from GENONE is very good.
Flavor: If you've never tried \"workout chocolate before\" then let me warn you it is not a candy bar. Nearly every brand of workout supplement that claims to be chocolate is like a semisweet chocolate powder. Have you ever tried cocoa powder? well, thats what this GENONE is like. Personally I am very happy that its NOT SWEET. I tried a \"cookies and cream\" protein drink recently and was really put off by the appalling sweetness. This GENONE chocolate on the other hand is not sweet and has a relatively decent aftertaste. BUT! If you are looking for the chocolate flavor usually associated with milkshakes made from real ice cream, you won't find it here! (or most anywhere else, for that matter).
It says it has 30 servings, and since I work out 6 days a week, that will last me for about 5 weeks.
Mixing it was fine, it says all you need to do is \"shake well\" and its nice to not NEED a blender ball to keep it mixed. But I did have to use a fork to stir it, particularly because I had to scrape the bottom and side of the container to get it all mixed in. Really, thats not necessary it was just me being a little OCD about \"mixing it all\". I felt it mixed well. I just mixed it with water which is how I mix all my shakes, particularly when I'm reviewing them.
Overall I would recommend this for a change of routine if you are looking for a new protein powder to try. It doesn't have EVERYTHING under the sun, like some protein drinks do, but maybe thats a good thing, right?", "label": 1}

I have always been disgusted by the plaque buildup that seems to evade even the best dental floss, and eventually turns into tartar. (Plaque is the colorless, soft, sticky film of bacteria that is made of food particles and saliva, and if it is not completely brushed or flossed away each day, it can harden and turn into tartar, which can be very difficult to remove.)
This kit came with 7 individual instruments, three having a different tip on each end. The sharp tips came protected with a clear rubber segment over them, which I'll likely keep so that I can put them back on after each use (for safety's sake). The pieces in this kit include 2 dental picks, an anti-fog mouth mirror, Jacquette scaler, tartar scraper, burnisher, and a sickle scaler. The carrying case is zippered and compact, so it's easy to store in a small space or take with you for travel.
After my first try with these instruments, I was able to remove tartar behind my bottom front teeth that had been bothering me for a while, and it feels so wonderful to have that gone! Do be careful when using these instruments, and don't scrape too much against your teeth. It is possible to damage the enamel and gums, so be gentle and go slowly! I'm VERY happy with this dental kit, and I would recommend it for those who want to keep their teeth extra clean between visits to the dentist.

I have terrible insomnia. Sometimes I can't sleep without complete silence. I live in the city and there's so much outside noise. And my housemates have a completely different sleeping schedule than me. I tolerated it for a few years before I was so sleepy all the time that I couldn't take it anymore. That's when I found this. I first saw it in a counseling center at my school. I didn't know what it was because I thought most white noise machines were tracks being played. But this is better. I slept with a fan on my nightstand in the summer and I found out that this drowns out the noise. So I use this in the other months when it's too cold to use a fan. It has helped me sleep soundly. It blocks out enough noise that if someone were to call me from outside, I wouldn't hear a thing. I can't hear cars passing by or people talking on the street. I can't hear things through the walls. I have this thing on the floor right near my head. I think the placement matters.
The only bad thing about this thing is that the motor is making noises now. It used to smell the first few times I used it too. It was this plastic smell as the machine heated from overnight use. It disappeared after a week and the machine doesn't get nearly as hot anymore. I'm a bit disappointed that the motor is kind of dying but I think it has to do with dust. For my next one, I'm going to be careful with the dusty on the floor. I tried to open my current one up but I haven't been able to unsnapped certain parts to get the hood to pop off. I've had mine for almost two years now. I see that some people have had theirs for much longer. I guess the quality has diminished or there was a bad batch. But it's so essential to my sound sleep that I just don't care about paying $40ish every two years.
If you're debating whether or not to buy it, go for it. But be aware that it literally sounds like a fan without the wind. If you can't stand that type of white noise, then don't get it. I find it soothing.", "label": 1}

I used an infrared thermometer and the top maxed out at 113 F, and the concave eye portion at 83 F. The concave eye portion could get hotter if you press it into the heating layer. So the heat is largely influenced by the contour padding and air gaps.
In that respect, it is a very efficient sleep mask, not putting pressure on the eyes, and providing a true blackout. There may be an issue around the nose area as everyone's noses are different. I end up with a slight peak-through at the most comfortable distance up from my nose if I look at it.
The hook-and-loop strap is on the finer side, indeed less likely to trap hair but do move it out of the way. I don't have a particularly large head and there was only one inch left where I set it. So if you have a large head it may not be sufficient.
The magnetic connection is nice, I find it tolerates a good amount of movement. Of course it will disconnect with enough force; much easier vertical than lateral, as there is a small peg reinforcing the connection. 39 inches is not all that much, especially since the control is half way, taking up some slack. It's fine if you are wearing a USB battery but difficult if it's tethered. The connection is on the left side if you're wearing it, which can pose a problem depending on where the power source is. You can use a USB extender cable but it's a hassle.
It comes with a cold gel pack that sits in the concave area, and a sateen finish cinch bag for transport.
In conclusion, it works and comfort was prioritized, but there are some issues. The more direct heat concentrated at the top is limited, and the concave area is effectively creating a low-temperature oven via radiant heat; more even heating and reaching 131 F would be large improvement. I would have appreciated an additional magnetic connection on the other side of the mask. The strap should be longer.", "label": 1}

available for meal replacements. Thanks to some mobility problems, I can't get to the refrigerator
when I get hungry, so having something available where I am was important.
We've tried several flavors of Spiru-tein shakes now. We got various packets,
and got a whole can of the egg nog. If you like the egg nog that comes in the wax cartons
like a quart of milk during the holidays, then you will like this one.
I needed something that would mix well and taste okay with WATER, not milk, as I cannot
get to the milk. We tried this one both ways, and I love it both ways!
The milk made it taste like a creamy cup of rich eggnog from a carton - definitely not like a diet shake.
The water made a very tasty version also - I use a shaker with a blender ball (vs a blender),
and very cold water. I shook it like crazy, then let it sit for a minute. It mixes very easily,
and I had no problems at all with the shaker. The result was a super creamy shake, thick enough to
drink with a straw if desired. It has a nice nutmeg aftertaste. The color is eggnog yellow (why mention
color? Some of Spiru-tein's shakes have some funky colors!), and totally acceptable. It coated the blender cup as well.
The only downside, if you can say there is one, is that it uses fructose as a sweetener. I prefer
stevia myself. At least it is not aspartame, which would be a deal breaker. It uses only ONE scoop
per 8 ounces of liquid, and has 120 calories, 14 grams of protein and 15 grams of carb (making it a little
bit on the high side of the carb). However, it also has choline and inositol in this flavor, which adds
to the fat burning potential.
I don't drink this to bulk up, rejuvenate after lifting weights, or any of the athletic uses.
I am using protein shakes as meal replacements to help shed some weight. So, the relatively lower
protein (compared to the muscle shakes) suits me just fine.
They say this is a holiday edition. They need to offer it year-round. It is fantastic!
A definite favorite in our house, with six thumbs up.
We'll definitely buy this one again!", "label": 1}

With this callus remover, you will get that look in minutes! No need to wait in a pedicure chair, or even pray that you won't get a disease because they may not sanitize the equipment. No worries! You will have your own personal one at home. This product is very neat, to me. I have had problem with callus for years, and when I got this product and tried it out; I was in awe!
A little description of this amazing remover:
First it does come in a box that will include three different types of heads for your remover. You have one that will immediately get to the bottom of the icky callus. The next one helps with left over callus that wasn't removed with the first mod. The last one smooths the skin on your feet as if you had soaked in a pedicure chair for 30 minutes. Seriously, it is just that good. The product also come with a charge cable for your remover, and I would advise that you let charge for a typical 8 hours to get the best results. You can also use this product with while it is on charger, but I wouldn't recommend. You can use this in the shower, but I wouldn't recommend that because you do have to still charge it and you don't want any water getting into the port the charger connects too. There is also a clear protector for your remover once you are done, just to keep it sanitize until you are ready to use again. There is also a brush that helps clean off the excess callus of the product, which is great!
I would definitely recommend this product. Everyone needs there own personal callus remover without paying an arm and a leg for a pedicure at Nail Spas. It is easy to use, directions included. Just charge it up and get ready for the ride of your life.

This baby oil is AMAZING and has MULTIPLE USES. Ive always used the pink regular one from johnson\u2019s but i wanted to try out this brand with the aloe & vitamin E. I\u2019m glad i did!!!! it\u2019s sooo moisturizing and works perfectly on my skin. I love how it feels and makes my entire body feel so soft and hydrated. I use it in a mist spray bottle straight out of the shower everyday and it works wonders!!! I actually mix it in with a bit of water in the spray bottle, so the water gets on my skin and the oil seals it in to keep it hydrated. It spreads very easily.
it\u2019s so much better than putting on lotion that dries out almost immediately. I use on my face AND body. it seals in moisture and keeps my skin GLOWING! my face loves this stuff especially since i have dry-combination skin. when i have this on, i know my facial skin barrier is protected because it literally seals the skin and keeps moisture in.
I actually also started using it on my hair because i know aloe & vitamin e is beneficial for hair. i put it in a spray bottle to make things easier. I get less shed hair because it makes my hair so easy to brush out any tangles. This has changed the softness of my hair so much! My hair has never felt so hydrated and soft & stayed that way for DAYS until this product. IM SO AMAZED. I know the future of my hair is going to be long and healthy.
Also, mineral oil is rated 0 on the comedogenic scale meaning that it will not clog pores and is not capable of doing so because the molecule is physically too big to clog pores so that is why i\u2019ve always used it for my face/body with no problems.
Not all of the formulas are non clogging though! the pink cap and green cap ones are best (in my experience), & the brown(cocoa/shea from j&j) is horrible and will surely clog pores because of the cocoa butter it in being a 4 on the comedogenic scale. i have not tried the lavender version of this oil.", "label": 1}

My old talking watch died on me and I needed a quick, economical replacement for it. This one seemed to meet those criteria. Sadly, it didn't live up to my expectations. After less than 2 months, it just plain quit working right.
There ARE good points about this watch. There are 4 diferent alarms to set for time reminders. I loved that. It woke me up, alerted me to it being time to get the kids off to school, told me when they would be home soon and let me know when it was time to start getting them ready for bed. I loved the stopwatch feature. I was really in love with the date function. In so many ways, it was everything I wanted. And then there were flaws...
I loathed the watch band. Looking at the picture, it appeared to be your typical rubbery plastic sport-type band. But it wasn't. It's a stiff plastic that really made it a pain in the backside to buckle on my wrist. And then there's the fact that it's lasted me a mere 6 weeks before dying on me. I turned off the hourly report feature one nite. 45 minutes later, when I went to check the time, it didn't respond. It was totally blank. Ticked off, I set it aside and looked at it the next morning. It was once again showing time (the incorrect time), but the buttons wouldn't do anything. No talking. No resetting the time. Nothing. I've never gotten it wet. It's been taken care of. And it just died.
Now, perhaps I got a bad one. One of the parts in it just fizzled out. But when you're visually impaired and your watch dies, you're kinda up the creek without a paddle, so to speak. If I were you, I would buy a totally different watch. If you want something cheap? Independent Living Aids sells a REALLY cheap talking watch for around $7.

I only use a fraction of the scoop and use every 2-3 days. That alone makes me Herx a bit which means it's working. I've been able to tolerate it and hoping to be able to use it daily.
Pros:
Has every herb in this one powder that my naturopathic doctor wanted me to take. Also I know that all the herbs listed is also in Stephen Buhner's protocol to help with not just Lyme but various co infections.
Saves money and time. Instead of purchasing each herb individually to use, it's all compacted into one powder and I just have to take it so far once every other day. I'm on a tight budget so this is a winner.
You feel this powder crossing the blood-brain barrier. So if you feel any tingling sensations or something like that within your head after taking this powder, it's okay, that means it's really working and helping out your CNS. Good for Neuro Lyme & Neuro Co-infections.
I have more energy (huge win)!
Cons:
It's not so much a con but those in the world of Lyme disease know that unfortunately some of us herx when taking certain products or treatments. Praying that this will pass soon and that I could just start to feel better altogether.
I detox a great deal and also use a binder to get the toxins out, all the dead bacteria that might be floating around inside my body, biofilms and all that nasty stuff. This is super important to find a good detox protocol and binder.
I'm going to continue using this and want to come back in a few months and share with all of you how I'm doing.

As a violin player, your body can take on the effects of sitting and leaning for a long time and can cause pain after years of playing. The guitar stool is used mainly for sitting and playing instruments as I am currently using it to practice my violin at home. The design of this foot stool is to to elevate the leg your leg a bit so your body is not in a hunched over position while playing, which can become painful after a while of playing. The foot stool has several different height positions to choose from so whether your short or tall, there is a setting for just about anyone. The adjustable levels are made by moving one of the legs on the bottom and selecting one of the groove positions. The material used to produce this product are sturdy and seem to be of good quality so I don't have to worry about it breaking after the initial use. Again, you are just resting your foot on the stool instead of applying your entire weight. It features a padded surface for the foot rest part, which allows for a more comfortable foot position and it has a slip resistant surface so your foot is not moving around. As someone who tends to wear shoes that has horrible traction, this foot stool allows me to rest comfortable with slipping. Upon initial usage, it will take some getting used to and might feel uncomfortable for the first two times because your muscles are getting used to the resting stage instead of flat. The great thing about this feature is that each foot rests has a protective piece attached to prevent any scratches to your floor or surface. This is the added bonus because I can literally use this foot stool anywhere without worrying about it damaging my floor especially if they are tile or wooden. This guitar foot stool can easily put in your tool bag and easy to carry around since it is lightweight and folds up easily for storage. I don;t have anything negative to say about this item because it does the job that it was made to do which is to support your foot.

I continued to take this drink in the morning, and yes, in water it doesn't taste the greatest. But I mix it with juice or koolaid or even ice tea, and it tastes great! I actually enjoy it in juice or koolaid, as I think it actually tastes better.
I am more focused at work, have more energy in the morning, and just feel more focused while thinking clearly. It's hard to describe, but it feels like a natural energy and alertness that I haven't felt for a long time. The only time I felt close to this good, was when I was juicing fresh fruits and vegatables every day and drinking 3 glasses of juice. This is quick and easy. I read some people complained that it can clump up in your drink, but you just have to mix it with a spoon really good before you drink it (or add it to a bottle of juice/ice tea and shake it up). Then it pretty much all dissolves, and goes down easy.
I didn't take this to lose weight, but I did notice I did not have as much of an appetite for garbage foods, and I could definately see how this would benefit someone trying to lose weight.
Overall with continued use, I feel better, think more clearly, am more focused and generally feel healthier all around.
NOTE: I take less than the recommended dosage, as just one or two scoops work for me all day. So this makes it last a lot longer for me, since it is pricey, I try to make it last as long as possible.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdpU9BSi2Zc
Basically, Longvida maximizes bioavailability of FREE curcumin, (as opposed to glucuronidated curcumin). Free curcumin is the only form that can cross the blood brain barrier and exert effects on the brain. Other brands fail to increase levels of free curcumin at all really. So the difference is VERY IMPORTANT.
That's the science, but everyone likes anecdotes better, right? So I just want to say that this supplement, along with a few other things, has had a major, huge, enormous impact on my mood, clarity of thought, and anxiety. Before I started, I was a wreck. I couldn't read a book or watch an episode of tv---"normal" people's methods of relaxation---without becoming anxious. I was trying out SSRI's, but they were proving to be useless. After starting this, along with a few other things, I'm 90% better.
What about the "few other things"?

So check this stuff out, and don't think of it as a purely "anti-aging" supplement. That's what it's marketed as, but it's a powerful anti-inflammatory, and everyone in any kind of disease-state is likely to have inflammation going on.", "label": 1}

First off, let me explain what my criteria is. My car's paint is aging, so it's getting harder to wax. I wanted something easy to apply, has a good shine, and doesn't turn plastic, and seams white. This one does it all. I didn't test the protection claims, because I just don't drive or park under rough conditions. I'm sure it performs well above my needs from other reviews I've read.
This is so easy to apply. To give you a comparison, Tech Wax, or Nano Wax takes about 3 to 4 hours to apply, becuase it streaks, and I need to apply 2 coats in some areas. Walk on wipe away (WOWA) products like Opti-seal takes about 2 hours to apply because I need to add a coat of wax on weathered surfaces. It just doesn't shine like wax. Armor All only takes 1 hour, because it's so easy to use, and doesn't need an extra coat.
When you apply it, it goes on like liquid, and seems to absorb into the paint. That's something wax doesn't do. When you wipe off the excess, it doesn't streak like wax or WOWA. If you have an older car with a dark color, you know what I'm talking about. Carnuba wax just streaks everywhere. With this, you don't need any elbow grease at all when applying or wiping, amazing! Tip: make sure you have extra micro fiber cloths on hand, because a dry cloth makes it easier to wipe off. When you're done, it has a slick feeling similar to wax. WOWA doesn't have that feel.
Another advantage is that it won't leave a white residue in the the seams, or on plastic parts. I have a louvered engine cover, which I never waxed because the residue made it look awful. Now, I can give it a coat, and the streaks are unnoticeable. The same with all the logos on the car.
It costs more than most waxes, but with the amount of time you'll save, it's definitely worth it. After years of searching for a wax that can do it all, the search is over.", "label": 1}

Before I begin, I would be remiss if I failed to mention that electric devices such as this are typically NOT recommended for diabetics. This is because if you are not super vigilant with caution, you can very easily cause yourself an abrasion. Cuts, abrasions or any type of injuries to a diabetic (especially in the feet or legs) are nightmares to heal and quite serious. So, if you are a diabetic and plan to use this product, you should be absolutely certain that you (or whoever is going to be using it on you) will not be in a hurry, take your time and don't rush. Basically, touch it to a spot once or twice and then FEEL with your finger or hand to make sure that you're not going too deep or causing any type of injury. Do this every time and every spot. If you're like me, you'll eventually want to go a little faster and cover more ground. However, I didn't because I know from past experiences what this can cause.
With all that being said, I have used my Emjoi Micro-Pedi Callus Remover twice so far and I love it. I've used battery operated devices in the past and they just wasn't powerful enough. My rough, hard skin would stop the rotating action of the device. That is the safer way, of course but I could never really get anything accomplished. That is why I decided to go to an electric callus remover. Rough, hard skin is NOT going to stop the rotating action of this callus remover. That means it will eat right through the hard, callused skin and start into the fresh, alive skin and that will HURT. And, if you are a diabetic, it will cause you an abrasion that could take forever to heal. So, be vigilant!
Provided my Emjoi continues to work well and last a decent amount of time (which time will tell), I am glad I bought this product and would definitely purchase it again.", "label": 1}

Now, ChuShu has asked me to write a review in exchange for one packet of their liners. Needless to say, I'm writing it -- but not for the one packet (although I do need to re-stock!) but because I truly think these are the best shoe liners I have used in years. I live in Baltimore, with 100-degree days, as well as sub-freezing days. Either way, I hate to wear nylons because my diabetic feet sweat, and my shoes were developing the familiar 'sour stink' thank simply cannot be cleaned out. I was, as others have mentioned, throwing out shoes that were not worn out because of the odor. Then, I found these. They are a shoe saver for me. I really do wear them in all my closed-toe, and peep toe shoes. I do not wear them with sandals, although I may try that this coming summer.
My only recommendations are that they make these a tad wider (make them for 'wide' sizes, and those of us who wear 'B' width can trim them if needed. Right now, they do not cover the width of my B-width shoes.) The second suggestion, along with other reviewers, is that they improve the 'sticky' material on the bottom. I have found that some stick like glue, while others move around -- and it does not matter if your shoe 'sockliner' is make of leather or vinyl. I have not used them in fur-lined shoes, so a merchandising line for that would also be nice. Nor have I used them in shoes with a 'Nubuck' sole, like my sandals have -- I will try that this summer.
I strongly recommend these liners. They really do help keep the odor down, and help to eliminate some of the 'stickiness' your toes feel after wearing shoes for an entire day at work. I'll be ordering more - and waiting to see if they start making them wider and tackier, too!", "label": 1}

The Mava Sport muscle roller has 2 comfortable grips on the side and 9 small rollers in between the side grips that allow for easy rolling throughout your body that you can do by yourself. The material used in the making of the muscle roller is stiff, but it's perfect to actually roll out any tightness and I believe it's more effective than the foam rollers. I was first introduced to a muscle roller from my personal trainer at the gym a couple of years ago after being sore and having noodles as leg. What he would do is simply roll it over my calves and thighs to release the knots and that would allow me to complete a work out and not walk around all weird. Now fast forward to the present. I decided to get the Mava Sport muscle roller in hopes that it would allow me to relax my legs after a long nursing shift. Being 7 1/2 months pregnant and standing on your feet for about 10 hours a day takes a toll on you legs and feet. At night I simply use my handy muscle roller to roll over my calf muscles to help with the relief of any knots that's may be forming, but more importantly to improve the circulation in my legs. Using the muscle roller at night I have had a huge decrease in muscle cramps that would previously wake me up in the middle of the night due to uncomfortable/pain of the leg cramp. You can also use the muscle roller on your back and shoulder to loosen up any tightness that you may have. I also use the muscle roller on my 7 year old son when he complains of any growing pains or simply just to give him a nice little massage once in a while. I highly suggest this muscle roller to anyone that to help relax at the end of the day.

This happened with anything that weighed just a few pounds. It weighed me and my boyfriend fairly well for the first few days. I had just gotten back from the doctor so I knew how much I weighed give or take.
Last week, that's when it got funky. We have both been eating better and working out (cardio and minor lifting) and I could tell the different in my clothes and measurements but it was stuck on the same number.. Even down to the decimal! For instance, if I got on, for days it would stay at 125.4. So anything around 125.4 it would give me that number. If he got on. It would stay at whatever he weighed.. 205.2 and keep flashing at that. But if I got on, then he got on, then I did again, it would change! So say, I got on and it was 125.4 then his was 205.2 then I got on, it would be 123. It's like you had to trick it with a very different weight to get an accurate weight!
I even tried to stand on it with one leg up. It dropped a few pounds and the next 5 times I got in it (2 feet firmly planted on the base) it would give me the number that I had when I was testing it with 1 foot up. This was super strange.

There are a number of user selectable options regarding audio type, volume, color of lighting, timer setting. So, it's easily customizable per your intended use.
We have a sound machine in the bedroom, and this will have a home in the home office, which is also the mediation room. Usually we like to use the water sounds, but sometimes the white noise is more useful to block out extraneous sounds/noise. Setting the timer is a gentle way to know when the scheduled meditation has ended. Instead of an alarm of some sorts, the sound machine simply ceases. Wonderful.
Even if you're not into meditation, place this unit in your bedroom. When you're feeling stressed, set up a relaxing sound and lie down. Just relax and breathe...be conscious of your breathing and just don't think about things. Just relax. And, umm, well, now you're practically meditating. hehe. You'd be surprised how this little mental respite can refresh you.
The only issue with this product is the absence of a USB power plug. It comes with a usb power cable, but needs a USB power port. Having this near a laptop or computer kinda defeats the purpose of the sound machine (getting away from stress/work). So, you need to purchase or have a spare USB power adapter plug, like the one usually used for smartphones. Luckily, with the proliferation of smartphones, most people have a spare usb power plug. For a device like this, the usb power plug should be included.
Overall, it's a fantastic product. It meets expectations, matching up to the descriptions and pictures in the product details. Attached are photos to show real world images of the sound machine.

It has a stylish minimal aesthetic, with easy handling and operation. Of note, it affords an exemplary sonic performance. When powered, even at the lowest setting, your skin can feel the brush head actually vibrating. This is perhaps the best sonic technology cleansing brush that I've encountered.
It comes with three different brush heads, which easily push on/pull off. Two of the brushes have fine nylon bristles, designated as soft and deep cleaning, with the third being a silicone bristle brush head. The brush heads are well made.
The device has three modes. According to the user manual: Level one is Daily Cleaning, Level two is Deep Cleaning, with the third level cycling between the two modes. The user manual does not give specifications for each level. (The product details mentions the two levels as being 9600rpm and 7200rpm.)
The user manual is very brief, with sparse details, specifications. Besides the lack of details regarding the power levels, there is no information on the battery capacity. It does note that it takes 3 hours to charge the battery. And, that it can be used for two months. That's a very vague, ambiguous specification for operating time.
Also, no definitive detail on the waterproof rating. They claim it's waterproof, but clearly mention not to 'soak' the device under water. So, I doubt that it's rated IPX7, which would be true waterproofing. At best, it's IPX6, which means that it's safe to wash/clean under a faucet. But, again, this lack of detail/specification is missing.
The regular price of $50 seems like a decent cost for the quality of the product. The current cost of $25, including the $25 savings coupon, makes this a very good value.

I don't mind my husband's snoring; but I'm concerned for his health because he definitely has sleep apnea. He won't see a doctor for it because he doesn't want to use a cpap machine. *sigh* So, I've got him a mouthpiece that lifts his jaw which he hated and says he can't sleep with it. So I was REALLY hoping this might work.
But it does NOT seem to help his breathing at all. And for people that would get this to make their snoring quieter... I don't think it works for that either because the sounds that were coming out of my husband when he wore this... were NOT quiet. As a matter of fact, I woke him up to take this strap off because I was afraid he might die without being able to breath through his mouth. (Maybe that's irrational; but he was really struggling to breath while he was sleeping which is what I was trying to FIX... not make worse.)
So, I don't know, maybe this might work for some people with incredibly clear nasal passages or something. But for us, it's just not helping. The only way we could use this is if somehow I could get him to wear this in combination with a snorkel, hahaha!

Remember, they frequently rip as you pull them out so now you have multiple torn pieces. 4) They really aren\u2019t that moist and if you aren\u2019t going to finish the package soon, by the time you get towards the bottom of the container, the product feels very dried out.
Now imagine them being used as potty training wipes. You have small, not so agile fingers trying to remove a wipe. The wipe is small, one or more come out in shreds as they pull on it, little pieces fall from tiny hands. By the time they are actually going to wipe, they may now only have a partial section of a wipe in their hand. If they are aiming for a messy target, the user will likely have some stuff on their hands as well as the little section of the wipe. Now you have two things to clean up and this product becomes a waste of time and money. You might as well hand your toddler a sugar packet and tell them to wipe with that.

** FLAVOR **
This is probably the most important factor for me, since I already know I can take mushroom-based supplements as pills, and I already know there are calming bedtime teas that are tasty. So if you're going to combine them, you'd better not mess up the flavor.
Thankfully, this tea is actually pretty good! It has a rich, dark flavor that stands up well on its own. I did try adding a splash of milk to it too, but I actually preferred it plain.
I'm not saying it's my new favorite tea, but it's absolutely enjoyable as hot drink before bed.
** CONVENIENCE **
Obviously it's packaged into individual packets, which is convenient. However, I was more concerned about how well it would dissolve into water. Thankfully, it was easy! I poured the powder into a cup of hot water, and it immediately started dissolving into the liquid. I gave it a good stir, and it was done. No need to keep stirring it; no leftover bits on the bottom of the cup. Easy peasy.
** EFFECTIVENESS **
I made my drink around 8:30pm, as I was just getting ready to put my kids to bed. I sipped it for the next hour or so as I got things ready, and I could feel myself getting into a more restful state as I went along. I wouldn't say I was getting drowsy, but just more relaxed and calm. I also slept pretty hard that night.

After reading the reviews on Amazon, and based on our experience with Panasonic, I finally decided to purchase this model in spite of never having tried it. I ordered it from Amazon in spite of the cost being slightly higher than some competitors since I had such faith in their service
For some reason, the delivery was delayed but Amazon responded with a $100 discount, which I felt was very reasonable. The chair was delivered today. Be aware that the shipper will not help bring it in the house. Fortunately, I had some help. It was very well packaged and came on a wooden palate which was left in our garage. It was quite easy to remove from the carton and only minor assembly was required which was very easy. The chair easily fits through a standard door. and is very attractive and appears very well made.
Now for the good part. Having tired a number of massage chairs, This relatively inexpensive model provides as good a massage as I have felt in a chair. I have tried most of the functions and they all feel great. There is a good selection, but the menu is not overwhelming as it seems to be in some models.
All in all, I'm sorry I waited so long. I did purchase the square trade 3 year warrantee, but based on my past experience with a Panasonic chair, I doubt I will need it. Since we live pretty far from a major city, I thought it worthwhile.
In summary, if your looking for a massage chair, I recommend you look no farther and I certainly would recommend Amazon for the purchase. Just be aware of the shipping limitation.

The moldable silicon plugs will probably get the least amount of use, they reduce moderate noises to quiet, but that is their limit. They also effectively clean the wax out of your ears if you don't do it before they are inserted. I don't usually wear hearing protection in a situation where there isn't dust or dirt, so I don't see them lasting long because they are sticky and will become filthy to the point of not wanting to put them in my ears.
The dark green ones fit great in my right ear canal, but they slowly slip out of my left because it's much smaller. It's not designed for a canal as small as I apparently have. Quiets the noise drastically in the right side though.
The blue ones are easily the most comfortable. The 'stem' is a little long, so if I were to wear them while sleeping I would surely trim it back a little to avoid pressure on the stem while sleeping on my side. For sleeping they would probably make it impossible to wake up to an alarm.
The orange ones are my favorite, they do everything I think an earplug should. They fit deep into either of my ears, they don't work their out and they cut the noise of my mower to a gentle hum. The rigid plastic insert makes insertion easier and offers better purchase for removal. They also didn't bother my ears at all in the he hour I was mowing and trimming my lawn. I even left them in when I came inside so I wouldn't have to listen to my kids screaming.

I have a 13 \u00bd \u201c \u2013 14\u201dknee width (using the \u2018bent\u2019 knee method described on the product page), so I\u2019m on the lower side of the range; but with the 3 hook&loop fasteners there is still plenty of flexibility to allow for a perfectly tight fit.
Then, I went on a 5 \u00bd mile walk. I don\u2019t run anymore; no surprise here, my knees don\u2019t \u2018take kindly\u2019 to running; but I do enjoy walking as much as I can.
And, I must say, for the entire walk the Ancocs Adjustable knee brace was extremely comfortable. I would never go so far as to say it didn\u2019t feel like I wasn\u2019t wearing anything on my knee, but it was pretty close. Unlike many neoprene-based knee braces, which quickly get soaked by sweat, this knee brace stayed cool for the entire time.
The lateral coils (which is where I need the support), performed their function well and did it with surprising comfort. At no time did I feel any \u2018hard mass\u2019 trying to push up against the sides of my knee. Just the right amount of support to do what I need a knee brace to do.
The flexibility, meaning how easy is it to bend the knee when walking, was very good. The shorter, middle hook&loop strap came around enough to keep the brace tight enough but didn\u2019t dig into the back of my knee with every step.
I think this is a product worth trying.

I was looking for a cure other than a cut and burn from a dermatologist. Well, I found that bit by bit, layer by layer, it did indeed take off the cancer and heal the area. My mom was also suffering from basal cell but was disabled and in a nursing home. She had a rather large, angry spot that was spreading. However, due to her frail condition, I did not want her moved to be transported for surgery or radiation. I begged her doctor to let me use the cream on her instead. Well, it stopped speading and started to shrink, so they left her alone and let me do my thing. Within a few months of applying, this large skin cancer patch literally fell off, revealing beautiful skin underneath. The doctor was amazed and wanted more information on the product.
This also works well for seeking out spots that are going to go cancerous so if you are prone to it, put this on your face at least once a day and it will go to work repairing any damaged areas. You will see a slight peeling of these areas. Keep applying. It beats that surgery or any radiation a dermatologist will do on you. Also apply it to any moles or brown spots. I also had an itchy, red rash that looked to be poison ivy, but not sure. I put it on the rash and it literally disappeared in front of my eyes as I looked at it. No more itch, redness gone for good.
Yes, I highly recommend this product and have had years of beneficial use of it. Thank God for it. I have recommended it to all my friends who are suffering from either basal cell or other skin conditions and they are amazed. If you have any condition like this, do not hesitate to order Raspex. Be persistant, put it on as many times a day as you can, it begins to work right away, however, depending on the depth of the spot, it can take months to fully eradicate it as it goes after it, layer by layer. It is gentle and better than surgery or radiation and will not damage any healthy skin in any way.", "label": 1}

I am one that for some reason or another I forget if I have taken my daily medications. I have in the past took a double dose because I could not remember if I had taken them or not. I take heart medications that lower my blood pressure, so therefore I would bottom out on my BP and black out. I don't ever like to admitt that I am unable to remember if I took my pills but since I had an emergency with low BP from forgetting my pills I thought that maybe it was time to get a pill organizer.
This 7 day AM PM organizer was just what I needed to keep track of my daily AM PM medications. The organizer has slots for 7 days starting with Sunday to Saturday. The slots are not too small or too big but just enough to hold a good many different size pills and the measurements on this medication reminder are 2 1/4 " x 7 " x 2 1/2 ". I marked my organizer with a sharpie with AM being purple and PM being green. The lids on pills organizer open easily and stay closed so your pills are safe, snaps with ease and very secure. Pill Organizer made from non-toxic plastic with the pill box being transparent so that you are able to see inside of the organizer at your pills.

We have several other masks cloth and disposable masks to compare these masks against. I must tell everyone these masks rock!
Seriously, this mask is soft. Soft like a high quality, tight woven, brushed cotton, and soft t-shirt that feels so good I can\u2019t wait for it to be washed.
Made in the USA by Americans look up their website!
I don\u2019t know them but I know where they are and they stopped production and are only making face masks..
The mask has adjustable ear loops, a pouch for inserts like those charcoal filters if you so choose.
The mask is so comfortable. But, here are more reasons why I will wear this mask every time I can because of a unique feature of the strap that goes behind my head, furthermore not putting pressure on my head or neck, simply rests on my back so I can take the mask off when safe and it simply hangs on my chest or lower. No longer having to put it In the visor, risk it touching anything but my shirt. Period. I don\u2019t have to look for it when I get out of the truck or put it in the pocket my phone was in, as cellphones are nasty even though you clean them, because I simply raise my mask up by the ear loops and slip it on my ears and snug the strap if it\u2019s loose. Double layer full coverage mask. From bridge of my nose to under my chin. Comfortable all day! I don\u2019t use the carbon filters. If needed, I would put a disposable mask in the pocket area on a as necessary basis.
I don\u2019t think I have been so excited about a product since my first boom box. Just kidding; since my iPhone.
These comes in two different sizes. I wear the XL. I have wide cheek bones and I\u2019m chubby. My spouse wears the Large and has a narrower jawline shaped face and chubby. They make them for kids to the big faces.

TTL;DR: Don't bother with these. Compared to LiveMus!c, these offer pathetic protection. You might not ever realize this, though, if you don't try out other brands.
My belief is that if you're going to go through the hassle to research earplugs, buy them, remember to bring them with you and actually use them when you are at an event, they ought to work really well or else that's a whole lot of wasted effort for nothing.
I don't often write reviews - I specifically bought these for TomorrowWorld and was so frustrated by their lack of protection that I thought it was worth expressing. It was my first festival to bring ear plugs to! I thought I was ready. I thought wrong. There's not much else to say. They're comfortable, the case is nice, they're not that expensive, but when it comes down to it, all that matters is protection. Even before sound quality, in my opinion. You're not wearing these for style. If you disagree, then this review might not apply to you.
Earplugs are unique in that they're difficult to test in your home; you can't exactly recreate an actual concert environment in your apartment (or probably shouldn't). So when you take these to an event, you might believe they're effective since you have nothing to compare it against. This false sense of security is dangerous! Especially if it's your first pair.
I thought these were also on par with my [[ASIN:B00NW1IZ5Q DUBS ]] as well. Comfortable, cheap. but you truly don't know what you're missing until you try the [[ASIN:B00H2F87I8 LiveMus!c]] plugs.
I think the perspective of comparing this to two other brands is quite valuable. I am not some crazy earplug freak - I bought these for my festival, tried the DUBS, and then my friend let me borrow his LiveMus!c. If protection is most important, spend the extra $15 - don't cheap out on your cochlea.", "label": 0}

I used Briani for the 30 day cycle, and after that time frame, I would say that I've noticed a decent improvement in my cognitive function. I think for myself personally, the issues that I always wanted to have sort of rectified, or at least a little bit of help with, are in my ability to maintain my focus and attention, as well as my memory. Oftentimes, I find that I'm forgetting things, and being that there is a history of dementia in my family, I sometimes fear that these may be signs at a younger age, that perhaps I may be in line for this terrible disease. Any type of improvement in my memory and cognitive function, is something that I'm very interested in, and will indulge in. The powder doesn't really dissolve the best if you just take it with a spoon, and mix it with water. I also wasn't a great fan of the taste. I began mixing it in with my smoothies that I have every day, and that was a big help. Primarily because the blender would make mincemeat of it, and mix it in without issue, and secondarily because I didn't really notice the taste afterwards. I didn't find that the powder taste affected my smoothie. I often sit and require attention with the work that I do, as well as good memory. Even though, I don't have baseline tests or anything to that effect that I can point to to give you qualified results, I can tell you anecdotally, that I certainly felt more focused, and better memory towards the end of my 30 days. I have to say, I was relatively surprised by that. It is an expensive product, but if it provides good results like the ones that I feel I achieved, it's well worth it. I know that my experience was positive, and so I can recommend it for a trial if you are someone who wants to improve their cognitive function as well.", "label": 1}

The mesh support allowed the breeze to hit our backs and keep us cool. We used the air conditioning only in traffic when the wind died down. They held together well too. I didn't use them continuously but alternated on and off to give my back new positions and prevent stiffness.
I also brought them into the hotel room as support for sitting up in bed at the end of the day. They were absolutely worth the hassle of carrying them in and out with my bags.
These are definitely going to stay in my summer road trip kit. Updated to 5 stars!
UPDATE: great customer service! Cartop has a great guarantee policy for defective products and is replacing my damaged item. Hopefully it'll arrive in time. I'll update again after my road trip.
ORIGINAL REVIEW: I had lumbar surgery several years ago. It helped immensely, but I still have occasional pain. Especially if I sit too long (more than a couple minutes) in a chair without support.
These are actually great for my back. Not only in a chair, but while sitting in bed reading they provided just the right support and air flow preventing me from overheating. I felt the difference immediately. As soon as I stood up, I didn't need to stretch or move carefully for those first few steps like I always do. The ache was gone, which was such a relief.
However, one of the supports snapped its stitching when I tried to buckle it to the seat in my car. I hadn't even used it yet. Hadn't messed with the adjustable bands at all. I've used the other for all of 2 days and while it's fine so far, I'm concerned.
I purchased them for an upcoming road trip for my mother and I and I don't think they'll last those 2 weeks. I'm going to try to fix and reinforce the seams, but I suspect I'll have to buy new ones along the way.", "label": 1}

POWERLIX Knee Brace Support

Mava Sports Knee Compression Sleeve Support

This is what I use as an undersleeve for my unloader brace. I have tried MANY, and while I wish this one was 2\u201d to 4\u201d longer, it still works the best for all day comfort under a brace. If you are just using it as a compression sleeve, I would recommend the above two for that purpose.

Everywhere you turn, someone is touting the health benefits of turmeric. However, when you research a little more there is very little evidence, actual, scientific evidence, that it does much of anything at all. So when I embarked on my turmeric guest, I was a little skeptical. Could turmeric really ease joint pain, relieve headaches, cure illnesses quicker, etc?
And the answer is... a resounding yes! I didn't start with this brand, but found it to be a great quality, affordable brand. One actually needs to consume quite a bit of turmeric for it to be effective. At least, I did. The recommended dose of 3g is great. Trying to get that in organic capsules would cost quite a bit.
When I began using turmeric I used it only in cooking. Some believe that it could be the heat, fat and other spices used in Indian cooking that creates the greatest health benefits of turmeric (pepper and fat are what activates it, but there is a theory about the cooking too). However, I did not cook with it enough, with a high enough dose, and never really noticed a difference in my health, joint pain, etc.
When I received this large supply of it, I was able to use it properly. That is, in a dose that would actually be effective and handle the issues I was having trouble with, i.e. knee pain, headaches and some rare colds. I cannot say that the turmeric got rid of the pains completely, but it majorly reduced them. As soon as a headache comes on I take a small teaspoon of turmeric and the headache never develops to migraine, which is has many times in the past. After vigorous exercise I take a good amount of it and the next day I do not feel creaky and the pain in my knees has almost completely gone away.

I've had this balm in my cart for ages as I was waiting for my next big sore to happen before I ordered it. My sores are caused by changes in my hormones, plus changing of seasons, plus stress. Last week, with all the worry and anxiety coming from the COVID-19 crisis, I developed a bigger-than-usual sore on my upper lip. I ordered this balm that night and it arrived quickly, which I was really grateful for.
I've had sores since I was a kid, and only had a few things that felt like they really worked for me. I've tried Abreva time and time again with only a little success (which is frustrating considering how expensive it is), and a few other over the counter ointments like it, but nothing has seemed to help much. I've even tried applying tea tree or eucalyptus oil to them, and those seem to help the most, but dry my skin out terribly, and they smell unpleasant to boot.
But this balm has changed my life, I'm not joking. I can apply this balm as often as I want, and it softens and heals gently. My current sore is on day 9, and very nearly healed, but I feel confident that if I'd had this from day one, it would have healed by now. The balm has a very pleasing lemon scent, and seems to soak in to the sore but stay on the surface of the skin around it to help keep everything from drying out and cracking, which would prolong healing and suffering. Admittedly, this balm seemed expensive at first glance, and I was skeptical about buying yet another high priced treatment option that would only work so-so, but now that I've tried it, I don't ever want to be without it!
I will be buying a couple of extra tubes when life settles down some, so I can keep one in my bag and at my office. I'm eager to see how well it works when applied right at the first annoying tingle. I hope that if you try this, you'll be as relieved as I was.", "label": 1}

There's a lot of misconception out there regarding heart disease. Heart disease is primarily caused by oxidized LDL. You get oxidized LDL when your diet is low in stable medium chain triglycerides, and high in PUFA (poly unsaturated fatty acids, like omega3 and omega6). What's worse is when the PUFA is primarily omega 6, which causes inflammation in the body to increase and LDL to become small/dense which is more likely to oxidize.
You could have low total LDL, but have high oxLDL and still get heart disease. Conversely, you could have high total LDL but have low oxLDL and live to be 100. The cholesterol hypothesis is based on the work of Ancel Keys's 7 countries study in which he correlated *all* fat with heart disease in 7 countries. That's really it. And there were actually way more countries, but it didn't fit Keys's theory so he dropped him. No true scientist does this. For example, France and Nordic countries have low heart disease, but high fat intake (including saturated). Chile has low fat but high rates of heart disease.
Getting to a 1:1 omega 3 to omega 6 ratio is key to reducing inflammation and preventing chronic diseases. But too much PUFA including omega3 is also bad. I would recommend reducing your omega 6 intake (industrialized seed oils, vegetable oils) and supplement about a tablespoon of this stuff daily. Get your fats from medium chain triglycerides (cream, coconuts, lard). This is in conflict with public dietary advice, but not with the science.
To those trying to lower triglycerides, lower your fructose intake and improve insulin sensitivity through exercise. Fish oil isn't going to cure the effects of 36 oz soda/day.", "label": 1}

You can read labels and compare ingredients at different price points. Rather, I want to mention several things about this protein that makes me prefer it as a consumer.
First, it tastes AWESOME for a whey protein. I have used probably half the protein brands on the market. Usually, if they are whey, they have that pungent, condensed milk taste that you have to gag down. Some others are decent if they are mixed with milk, but milk doesn't mix as well and leaves your shaker bottle full of chunks. Or, alternatively, you can mix with water, which makes the pungent whey taste so much worse. This protein, however, tastes great mixed with water and downright AMAZING mixed with milk. The taste, by the way, is kind of a light mocha taste, like a mild jamocha shake from Arby's (remember those?).
Following on that, what really impresses me is that this stuff mixes easily with whole milk in a shaker bottle, without any chunks whatsoever. This matters to me because I always find it is inconvenient to use a blender. Many times I don't want to wake my wife or kids; other times, I just don't want to clean a whole blender. So having a protein that can mix easily in a shaker bottle is often the difference between drinking protein or not.
OK fine, I will say a word or two about the ingredients. As far as I can tell, this protein has all the main ingredients you should look for in a protein. It costs a little more per unit of protein and other ingredients, but it's still a solid mix. And for what it's worth, a typical body can only absorb about 25 grams of protein every twelve hours, so the protein-loading that many options encourage are not really giving you much advantage.
Overall, I give this 5 stars. I deduct one star because I think the price is quite high compared to the competition (over $1.00 per serving). If I check back and the price has fallen, I would definitely raise to 5 stars. This is great stuff. Just hard to buy for this price when there are so many other options that are more affordable.", "label": 1}

Sometimes I'm a bit of a cheapskate when it comes to buying things for myself, so this product must actually work in order for me to pay full price for it - now twice!
I've been suffering from anxiety for the past...well, probably my whole life...but it's gotten pretty bad in the past couple years. The first time I ordered this was when I was having random muscle twitches in my arms and legs and slight muscle fatigue. I basically convinced myself I had some serious illness (I'm a slight hypochondriac), but when I googled my symptoms, I found out I might be magnesium deficient. Turns out anxiety can be a result of the same deficiency as well. I came across Dr. Carolyn Dean's website, and then ended up ordering a cheap brand of ionic magnesium from amazon (because, remember - I'm a cheapskate). That brand actually worked really well for relieving my anxiety, but some reviews stated that their bottles were expired. So I looked at the exp. date on my bottle, and sure enough, it had expired a year or two before. I also read some reviews about safety concerns about arsenic content in that brand. Concerned for my health/safety, I quit taking it, and sure enough, my anxiety came back full force, so I gave in and ordered ReMag.
Just so you know, the taste is absolutely horrible. Bitter and disgusting. Dr. Dean recommends mixing it with water and salt and sipping it throughout the day. I tried that and just couldn't keep doing that everyday. I loathed drinking it and eventually stopped taking it, which equaled the return of anxiety.
So now I put the dose of magnesium in a couple ounces of grape or orange juice and immediately guzzle a bunch of water after that to get rid of the residual bitter taste.

I am a bit on the heavy side, about 230 lbs and I have found that foam/memory foam cushions out there just get squashed flat and do not provide the support or comfort that I need. I thought long and hard before buying the Royal Purple Seat Cushion because I was extremely skeptical; I have never used a Purple product before, so I did not know what the material that they use on their products was all about. I figured that the material is not memory foam so it might just be the solution I am looking for.
Does the product work as advertised?
Yes, I have to say that the cushion is comfortable and has taken the pressure off my lower back. I no longer feel like I am sitting directly on my spine which is exactly why I purchased this product.
HOWEVER Please be aware that there is a 'break in' period for this cushion.
If you are on the heavier side, the edge of the cushion may press firmly against your legs causing them to go numb, which was a huge bummer as I thought this would not work out. My advice is to elevate your legs on some kind of foot stool/rest (about 4 to 5 inches) so that your legs do not press against the edge of the cushion too hard and you do not experience the numbness. After about 2 weeks of 'break in' time, the edges of the cushion have become softer and no longer dig into my legs causing the numbing effect. The Purple Butt Cushion at this point is now perfect - So do not get discouraged if you get the product and experience this - persist and you will be rewarded with a great cushion.
Even though I experienced the temporary 'break in' leg numbness, I still give this product 5 stars because I believe it is the best seat cushion solution out there.

If you have actual curly hair (unlike my slightly wavy hair) I don't see this brush having any problem at all straightening your hair! I also have a lot of very thick hair and usually have to straighten it in sections. But with the brush being able to brush through and grab a lot of hair with each brush, I don't have to do sections at all! That's my favorite part about this product! Also, I have to rave about the glove. It works very very very well! I have a heat glove from another product and it helps shield some of the heat to help prevent burns, but definitely still can get burned. This glove, I could touch the brush and never even felt heat! I was able to hold my hair in the brush as I brushed so I could get a pretty curved look. That was very cool. And now the only reason I gave it 4 stars was because the brush gives off a funky smell when it's hot. At first I was afraid it was from burned hair, but it wasn't. It was the brush itself. It's not horrible or even that noticeable. I hope it's more of a new-product smell and will go away over time. But it definitely doesn't deter me from using the brush!

He delivers mail in the standard issue LLV (long life vehicle or mail truck depending on who you ask). My husband has issues with his back and previously had surgery for a herniated disc in his lower lumbar region. Fast forward to now and he has herniation again, along with nerve damage in his legs and feet. He has a large rural route, which takes him along some very bumpy dirt roads and the LLV seat has no shock absorption whatsoever.
After doing some research into the Purple mattress I was happy to see they also made seat cushions, so I bought one for my dad, who is a truck driver and one for my husband, who is a mailman. Amazon sent the wrong cushion initially, but I sent it back and they quickly replaced it for the Ultimate seat cushion. My husband was excited to get the mail that day! He immediately used the seat cushion in his LLV that day and has been using it ever since. It's amazing how something that seems so simple can upgrade your level of comfort instantly. He was bragging to his coworker, who is also a rural carrier about his new seat cushion, so today he decided he would leave the cushion in the LLV for his coworker to try when they switch shifts. I am happy to report that he also loves it!
The Ultimate Purple is pretty wide and perfect for the larger derrière. If you have a smaller derrière or seat width, I could also recommend the Double Purple, which is the cushion I purchased for my father. Just take a look at my Amazon reviews if you are interested in the Double Purple seat cushion. The Ultimate Purple is very comfortable and has helped immensely with the stiff ride, dirt roads, and long days of mail delivery. I would not be surprised to see an influx of orders for every model of the Purple seat cushions once the word of mouth gets out.

It is very tempting to buy this at 1/6 the price I pay but the reviews would be a 5 star if it were the same product. I have had chronic gum infection on the upper left side of my mouth for years. The infection literally ate the bone away despite the fact I went to the dentist complaining 4-6x/year. It never showed up on the Xray. Antibiotics, many dental appointments, chronic pain, etc. Then my sister purchased me Steel Bite Pro as a birthday gift. I never believed a silly pill (2 in am and 1 pm) would work but, By George! it DID!. My dental hygenist saw a big difference in my gums when I came in for my 1 of 4 yearly cleanings (at $140.00/pop!) I take it regularly now (and I buy it from live Long Solutions and pay the $69.00/bottle for it, gladly). At one point I did stop taking it and stopped flossing too. Within about 2-3 weeks I had an infection again. I didn't want to start up on antibiotics so I started retaking the Steel Bite Pro and they even cleared up the infection! No cleaning, no dentist. I now see the hygenist ONCE/year. I am 66 years old and have had my teeth cleaned 3-4x/year for 15-20 years. This stuff is amazing. It also has worked for everyone I know that took it. My dentist does not recommend it to his clients despite the huge difference it made with my gums. I wonder why... ;)", "label": 1}

Due to my work schedule, I have to rotate between early morning workouts and late evening workouts, and if you try to take supplements to maximize the benefits of weightlifting, it can be discouraging to do so when things like staying awake or falling asleep are important to you. That being said, I wanted to try this product for about a month to get an accurate depiction of what it does for me.
My initial reactions:
I work in the chemicals industry and fully appreciated the fact that no coloring is added to this mix. It mixes clear and tastes excellent (Watermelon). It does not have the typical artificial sugar aftertaste that is really common in pre-workout supplements. I knew that it was a higher than average stimulant product, so the first time I tried it, was during my early morning workout.
It hits hard and fast, but in a very good way. I was able to take it as I pulled into the parking lot, and felt the effects quickly. I definitely felt that I was able to get more out of my workout, more weight, more reps, before I felt my muscles fatigue. I don't know if it was a placebo effect, however I will note that I did experience this same thing every time I used the product. One the days I forgot to bring it with me, I felt a markedly different way during the workout (I keeps some other powders in my truck just in case) and did not feel the same surge during those workouts.
There is no crash when the product wears off. This was huge for me. I was able to go throughout a 12 hour shift, without feeling wiped out, needing an additional pick me up.
When working out at night, I was worried about the potential difficulties falling asleep, however I was pleasantly surprised to find myself falling asleep with no difficulties.
I would normally take about 4g of Beta Alanine, along with some vasodilators, but found this made it so I didn't have to take any additional pre workout supplements except for my creatine.
I can see myself using this product for a good long time, not only for my workouts, but occasionally when I need to use a little bit of a boost during a busy day.", "label": 1}

Well, he decided to use my dirt laundry basket and hid this poopoo and till laundry day came around I didn\u2019t notice that the clothes all the way to the bottom of the basket were wet (and where his poo was very well hidden). By this time the odor had set in and wasn\u2019t strong but it was there.

A white shirt that is roughly 10 years old that I could really only use for bed or working outside had a few set in stains.

I've got to say though, I've suffered from a bone spur on my right foot for a few years now, I wore the clear gel heel cups and the padded arch supports today and it's the first time in months that I'm actually pain free where my spur is. Totally worth it for me just for that! Thank you!
Edit: okay so I've been using this for a little over a week now and I've got to say a few things.
First of all my pain was so bad, I'd hobble around most of the day. If I had to be on my feet for an extended period of time, by night I was close to tears. Massaging and a Tens unit was my only source of relief and that was temporary to say the least.
I bought this in hopes of relieving some of that pain and I only wish I had purchased this sooner.
While it feels a little uncomfortable at first, the brace once adjusted corectly to the curve of your ankle and foot, works wonders.
The first few days doesn't seem like it's doing too much but just keep at it, adjust and make sure it's stretching that tendon out but not painfully so.
I started out 30-45 minutes around bedtime, I now wear it for about 2-3 hrs at night.
During the day I wear the gel heel cups and I honestly could jump for joy like a toddler right now. This is the first time in years I have not been in pain waking up and walking and I was able to go shopping and do quite a bit of walking around and barely felt any issues by the end of the day.
Thank you for a great product, it's improved my quality of life greatly already.

Having consumed a wide variety of protein powders, both milk and plant based, I have a large pool of powders to compare this to. This Carlyle powder is quite good. It bears no resemblance in taste to products from Orgain, but does remind me in both texture, grittiness and taste to Vega's products. It also has some texture and taste similarity to the Purely Inspired line of plant based protein powders. Carlyle's powder is, however, thicker when mixed with the recommended amount of liquid.
I mixed one scoop with 6 ounces of water, and found it a bit too thick for me. When mixed with 8 ounces, it was quite a bit thinner and more to my liking. The taste is definitely plant based vanilla protein powder, and if you drink it right after mixing, it is gritty. Let it sit for a few minutes and the grittiness greatly diminishes. As for clumping, I couldn't get it smooth with just a spoon, but in a shaker bottle (without a blender ball) it mixed up perfectly clump free.
I really appreciate the high fiber content in this, and while there is a bit of an aftertaste, it isn't unpleasant. The powder is quite sweet, which may not be to everyone's liking, but mixed with a bit more liquid it diminishes. I also really like that it has a variety of plant proteins, although the main protein is from peas, adding to the grittiness. There is a nice vitamin and mineral profile in this powder which adds to its value and health benefits. If you're already high on consuming those vitamins though, you may want to look elsewhere.
I've been liking this as a breakfast drink and it tides me over until lunchtime just fine, with a satisfied feeling without bloating. Nice protein, but at it's current price, it's a bit expensive when compared with better known brands.", "label": 1}

These are sturdy lamps with a nice clean design and a variety of colors to compliment any decor. My favorite is the ivory.
I have presbyopia and early cataracts, so can benefit greatly from higher contrast in reading and needlework. These lamps are beyond meeting my expectations.
Whereas, I used to have a lot of eye fatigue and got sleepy while reading at night, this is no longer the case. The black print appears darker, sharper-- as if I'd up-graded my glass prescription. I find that I have sufficient spread of light for reading an average newspaper page. Even the newspaper stock quote pages are now readable, whereas this isn't the case otherwise.
I also do a lot of watercolor painting and needlepoint. It is a treat to be able to work into the evening while being confident that my color mixes are true.
Here is an amusing side note which supports that the light approximates daylight......My elderly cat, who enjoys a daily bath in outdoor sunlight, sometimes substitutes the Verilux lamp light for his \"spa\" when the weather is bad! It can't be the heat that he is drawn to-- as little is given off.
I can appreciate some reviewers' observations that the quality of the light is perhaps \"overly white.\" Yet, the lamp is not intended for ambient lighting but rather for a small task area.
The light bulbs are not pricey when you consider that they last for 5 years and are, thus, an average cost of $4. a year. Also, they use less than 1/5 of the electricity of a traditional 150 watt reading light.
If making a decision to purchase this lamp, I would suggest that you base it upon your need or wish to have better clarity in visual work at night. It is not intended to add daylight to a room.
There are many cheaper Verilux look-alikes, but I wouldn't recommend these. There are serious complaints
that these fall apart in a year or two-- or fail to work from the beginning.", "label": 1}

I've tried the fuzzy navel, roadside lemonade, lemon tea, and kiwi strawberry so I'll review each individually.
The fuzzy navel was very good and a welcome change from the muscle milk that I have been using. I'm not a huge fan of peach flavored stuff, but this flavor was very good. It tastes exactly like the drink, to me, and mixes decently well.
The roadside lemonade tastes decent but definitely has a "creamy whey," flavor to it which I can really taste. The mixability was again only decent. I use a shaker cup for all of my protein drinks and the lemonade was definitely below average for mixing. I routinely got massive clumps in the drink that I'd have to break open with a spoon then shake it again.
The lemon tea was very good and mixed very well. I could definitely use this flavor routinely. It mixed with no clumps and tasted very much like real iced tea. I mixed some of the roadside lemonade in with the lemon tea (2 scoops lemon tea to 1 scoop of roadside lemonade in approx 16 oz of water) and it was probably my favorite protein drink.
The kiwi strawberry tastes like slightly watered down kiwi strawberry flavor (imagine that). It isn't overpowering by any means and isn't that sweet, but if you are expecting it to taste like a snapple then you'll be disappointed. It does mix very well and I would buy it again.", "label": 1}

Well, I like them, anyway - particularly for biking.
I bought this one in yellow. I have to admit it caught my eye specifically because the style, especially considering all 3 available colours, is very Star Trek. Even the logo vaguely adds to it. Am I crazy?! Yes, but I knew I had to get this one. The size and padded straps had something to do with my purchase too, but... you know.
It's large for a waist bag, a little small for a utility bag. It packs a whole lot of stuff in it's various pockets. I can use it for the bike tools and supplies I tend to carry with me if I'm out for a while on my bike, or any of my other daily items.
- The largest pocket is in the back. I fit two boxed bike tubes in it, or alternatively a full package of baby wipes, plus my Kindle and a little bag of Red Vines.
- The pocket in front of that has two internal compartments (one is zippered), plus a little key holder clip. It can hold many small items (for me: phone, oximeter, pill case, chapstick, trial size lotion, few pens, charger).
And the pocket in front of that is a diagonal small zipper pouch that can hold something small and skinny (just notes and receipts for me).
There are also two small side mesh pouches; they're not large enough to hold a water bottle but they're about inhaler sized.
The back of the pouch is very padded. It'll prevent any sweat from reaching the contents.
There's also a wide channel between two padding layers so you can stick your belt (or anything you need to carry?) through it.
The shoulder strap is removable but the waist strap is not (though it could be stuffed into the side mesh pockets if you need to).
THINGS I LOVE: The padding that extends out to the sides makes it super comfy. It can carry quite a bit of stuff, the zippers don't snag, the shoulder strap is removable, and most importantly: it's heavy duty and high quality.
THINGS I DON'T LOVE: The bottom isn't padded like the back, there are not small pen/coin/etc holders inside any of the larger pockets.

Gloss was OK but not great. My truck is black with metallic flake. The truck looks shiny and nice, but it just doesn't have that same "pop" that other nice waxes have. The metal flake doesn't glisten like I was used to with other waxes.
Durability so far has been great. The truck beads water like crazy even 2 months later. I love seeing it run off the hood like mad when I drive in the rain. It certainly lives up to its reputation there.

I would rate this as very good but it hasn't beaten my go to for the past several years which is turtle wax ice paste. We will see if this out lasts the TWI.

I'm trying to go off memory of the proper steps, so I may miss something. You have to clean your cabinets with a strong special cleaner, then lightly sand them, and then reclean with a 50/50 mixture of water and denatured alcohol. You also have to keep ammonia on hand for some reason, but I can't remember exactly why. This might not be everyone's way, but this is just how I was taught to do it, and it's working well. The job was taxing on me because I didn't have good towels to use. I was using a sponge and paper towels for a good part of it, and they just weren't cutting it. I think there's something in the makeup of these towels that make them clean better and will make my job of prepping my cabinets a lot easier. I'll also need them to wipe away any sanding dust in between coats, and these will leave them lint-free, unlike paper towels.
Just from using a few of these to clean my Air fry oven and microwave, I know there's some super special cleaning power in these towels. I know that they will serve me well while doing my cabinet painting jobs.

It was doable, but not very smooth for a consumer level product. It is an expensive scale and they really should have done better than only supporting 802.11b.
The initial setup turned out to be the best part.
The scale does not appear to be very accurate. In tests against 5 other scales, including a medical balance beam scale it is 5 out of 6 for proximity to the other scale's reading, and the adding of weight when holding a known quantity weight.
It currently won't let anyone else get invites. Fitbit doesn't allow their support forums to be accessed by people who are not signed in, so an internet search did not turn up the problem. Eventually I logged into the site and discovered that it is a known problem, but a couple of days later it isn't fixed. Mainly the level of customer service is really disappointing. They suggest submitting a trouble ticket for a workaround, but they are very slow to respond to trouble tickets. Others are reporting responses to trouble tickets such as "check you spam box" when there is already supposed to be a known and acknowledged problem system wide where new invites cannot go out, yet clearly not all CS agents are properly informed.
The scale has also randomly spammed the fitbit account with a dozen weigh-ins within the same minute, of a completely erroneous weight, which caused all kinds of incorrect badges to be issued, despite the whole "matching" via similar weight making it so that it should not ever think that one person has lost 25 lbs in a single day.
The bodyfat reading appears to be based on a calculation of weight/height/sex which is sort of fine because none of the bioelectrical impedance scales really do an accurate job (although at least the ones with foot and hand sensors do (which this does not have) are a little more reliable.
Not worth the money. Not worth it at half the price.", "label": 0}

Then you read Cherry Bomb and I was totally intrigued and it sounds like it would be an awesome flavor. This stuff ticked all my boxes on looks and drawing me in.
However, when I opened it and smelled what was in this, nope, nope, oh heck to the nope nope. I have to be completely honest, I can't even tell you what it smelled like because it's not something I've ever smelled. Yeah, tells you exactly what it is huh. I know, it's driving me crazy too because it's this strong striking scent that you think you know but then when you think about it, you really have no idea. Then I tried it. Worst mistake ever. It's like battery acid meets stomach bile, except I'd rather drink that. The worst part is while I was very hesitant to even try this after smelling it, I was like I've tried things that smelled horrible, tried it, and honestly it was awesome. However, me being dumb and super thirsty I ended up downing half a bottle before wanting to rip my tongue out. It's messed up because it started out totally fine until you stop drinking and then the smell turns into the taste. My tongue is still mad at me, and I don't blame it. I still have remnants of the smell and then it reminds me of the taste and I spit up a bit. Yeah, it's gross. It's more than gross, seriously don't buy this stuff. And being someone that drinks zero sugar drinks and sugar-free stuff, it's not this being sugar-free.

It's not necessarily a bad thing because it packed a good punch for being so small. In fact, the sounds seemed to be very good quality and the melodies that played were very soothing and calming. All of my kids really enjoyed them. Here are the problems with this device:
1. You have to charge the unit to 100% once it dies and CANNOT use it while it is plugged in. So you use it until it dies and then it needs to charge to 100%. It doesn't take too long to charge. Maybe 3 hours or so. I tried unplugging it before it had charged to 100% and it didn't want to work.
2. There is no indicator of the battery life on the device. You don't really know when it is dying or almost done charging. So you can either choose to charge it every day before you use it or take a chance and use it until it dies. At first it lasted us almost 5 full nights (around 50 hours of use in total). We use it as a sound machine at night for our kids. After a month of use, it started holding less and less of a charge. We finally returned it after about 5 weeks because it wouldn't even last 2 full nights (or 20 hours).
3. The \"night light\" isn't really a night light. So the light on the device can either be set to \"on\" (which is VERY bright), \"off\", or \"blinking\" which is just simply distracting.
If all of these things were resolved I would purchase several more because this machine was really convenient and the sounds were of good quality and not annoying or scratchy.
*** A few things to note, we never used the night light so that was not the reason for our battery usage. Also, I did notice that the melodies used up more battery life than the simple sounds did so if you are wanting to use it for a business with the melodies you will not be able to use it for more than 8 hours or so before needing to charge it again.", "label": 0}

The Presadee Compression Arm Sleeves have made a huge difference for me \u2013 in how I look, how I shop for dresses, and how I feel. These handy little spot shapers let me shop for dresses based on how much I love the dress, not on how well the dress camouflages my dorito-y upper arms. I can slip and tug these shapers in place and slide my arms into even the clingiest dress and my arms look toned and fit. No more jiggle, no more wiggle, no more looking like I\u2019m trying to smuggle three half-empty Capri sun pouches out under each arm! The sleeves fit snugly and stay in place all day. Gentle ribbing texture in a nylon and spandex blend provide support with no bulk so fitted sleeves in dresses and blouses stay smooth. The sleeves go into the washer and then get line dried and can be worn every day as shapers or to assist with increasing energy and to stimulate circulation. The soft beige color is undetectable under even white blouses.

This made me pay instant attention to Tri-Salts as I compete in a heavy-sweat sport and am no stranger to agonizing leg and foot cramps while mountainbiking and the dreaded re-visitation later that night while asleep. Since taking this product, I have not suffered any cramping WHILE riding, including 50 plus mile races which can last anywhere from 4 to 7 hours depending on the course. I have even ditched Salt Stick, which I used to take hourly while racing. (Note to fellow racers, your mileage may vary, so I'm NOT telling you to ditch the Salt Stick or Hammer either.
I also use this product in combination with 100% ascorbic acid (vitamin c) to buffer the acidity. I believe that vitamin c is incredibly important to athletes (and everybody) on so many levels its impossible to write about. Just do some google research on Vitamin C and recharging/flushing. The key is to mix it with the tri-salts to neutralize the acidity and create a spike or flush of Vitamin C.
Since doing this for the past 6 months, I've gained strength and endurance which is noticeable while competing. I am very impressed with this product. It has zero taste...and I consider chalky a texture, not a taste, btw. So in the morning, I put about 3 ounces of cold aloe vera juice (Lakewood Brand) one ounce of pure lemon juice (Lakewood) and more cold water, half teaspoon or more of Tri Salts, to a honking big teaspoon or more of pure 100% pharmaceutical ascorbic acid. Sometimes I add to that Great Lakes Collagen, NOW Brand Glutamine and NOW Brand MSM. My knees are my crown jewels...and I never have issues with them. This makes a fizzy cold brew, tasting mostly of lemon. The collagen and msm has zero taste. Although I think that glutamine smells like feet when you open the canister, but no taste (thankfully).

Then I had to take the package to an UPS Store and send it back to amazon. Northern Light needs to be very clear about the very fragile nature of their light bulbs so customers are not inconvenienced and disappointed as I was, and have their products packed with much more care. Secondly, amazon did not want to credit my account for the light bulbs but the customer svc rep. (whose words I could barely understand) said they would send me replacement bulbs instead. I took the package to UPS and got a tracking number/receipt. When the other 2 light bulbs arrived in about 4 days, we installed them into the Northern Technology Lamp and both of them flickered constantly and never provided full light. Evidently they were Defective. So I had to contact amazon cust svc AGAIN and repeat the process to send light bulbs back for a Refund (credit). When amazon sent me an email with the credit, it only gave me my refund for 1 light bulb! Back to the phone with amazon cust svc! This time at least I could understand what she said to me. Oops! Amazon made an error and she said she would have another credit refunded. To this day, two weeks later, I still have not received an email from amazon with the credit/refund on it!

By the way, those light bulbs cost almost $30 each! I was able to purchase a New Lamp from another company for $80! That is only $20. more than those 2 light bulbs.

I can turn this thing on and not mess with it for the entire day. Its even better for when I sleep because I get all night diffusing If my favorite sleep blend. I do have to use more essential oils then the smaller ones. I find it better to just come back every few hours and put a bit more in then add a bunch from the start. Its not hard to do either.

I also had my doubts about how well it would work on African American non processed hair. Because the temperatures maximum range was atleast 100\u00b0c less than the previous straighteners I've tested. This straighter features a new design, a six level temperature range of 130\u00b0c to 200\u00b0c, and a 360\u00b0 rotating cord. It heats up fairly quick, around 30 sec to 1 min depending on the temperature setting. I decided to test this product on an African American thick and kinky hair type. This straightener did an amazing job. In comparison to the two brush straighteners I've tested previously. First of all I was able to get closer to the root. Which in my opinion is crucial for straight styles. And simply for appearance purposes. Who wants straight ends with kinky roots? Beyond that her hair came out pretty decent. I'd compare the end results to a blow dry with an accompanying light press. Press meaning (straightening or hot comb). For silky or loose curl hair types, this product would work twice as well. This device is easy to power on. And it has illuminating lights to show what temperature it's on. With other straighteners in this catagory, I've had issues with accidentally pressing buttons whilst in use. This was no longer an issue. The straightener also has a safety cut off feature. Which I found to be a blessing and a curse. Sure if you've forgotten to turn it off, fires will be prevented. However it can be irritating, it turning off while your sectioning your hair or applying product. There are a few things that could use improvement. A higher temp range,an alert sound when it's about to shut down, and a bag or case for storage when not in use. Instructions for cleaning would also be appreciated.

Both compounds are part of cartilage, which forms a cushion between bones of a joint. As you age the cushions erode and the result is skeletal pain virtually everywhere- osteoarthritis. Both glucosamine and chondroitin are part of normal cartilage. MSM is a sulphur compound which aids in to the efficacy of glucosamine and chondroitin and the three compounds work synergistically together.
That having been said, I am a good guinea pig being both very old (85) and very arthritic. I am also aware that if the mind decides a supplement is going to work-any supplement- the mind affects the cure, not the supplement. That is why in some cases, test people taking a placebo have just as good a result as the people taking the supplement. However, the Mayo Clinic researchers gave a glucosamine sulphate supplement a grade of \u201cB\u201d meaning that there is good scientific evidence for its ability to lessen the pain in the knee. They specify that positive results were only obtained for the knee.
Glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM are a combination that is for many effective in treating osteoarthritis, muscle damage caused by exercise, and other inflammatory joint disorders. There is plenty of anecdotal evidence for osteoarthritis relief, but until more scientific information is available, the thing to do, especially if you're elderly, is take and trust the Viva Lab's glososamine-chondroitin- MSM combo, and if you're young get on the bandwagon and start taking it, too.

The raw crystals/stones are nicely cut, with each about the same size. It's a nice collection. The chakra bracelet is perhaps equal to the value of the raw crystals and stones. The bracelet has chakra stones/crystals, along with a series of sparkly gray spheres. I don't know what these gray balls are composed of (other similar chakra bracelets have lava stones, these do not appear to be lava stones).
The polished hearts are very nice. Some have scratches, due to interactions with the raw components, which is unfortunate. Five of the hearts are similarly size, with the sixth, an amethyst heart, slightly larger. This is a respectable assortment.
The highlight of this collection is the chakra tree of life. It's a good size, has an excellent stone base, and excellent craftsmanship. The 'foliage' is well populated, with quality wiring and chakra elements. This is my favorite component of the set. The pictures of the chakra tree depict how it arrives. You'll want to carefully rearrange the chakra foliage for a fuller look (or leave it for a dense appearance).
Also included are a set of cards, each one explaining aspects of chakra. It's a nice addition, and would be valued/welcomed by novices.
Attached are photos to show real world images of the product offering. A ruler accompanies the images for size reference.
At the current cost of $19.80, including the 40% discount coupon, it is very competitively priced. The polished hearts alone would cost in the range of $7 - $14. The chakra tree of life would cost in the neighborhood of $20. So, you can see that it's already a very good value.

I didn't experience that with UnAltered Fully Dosed, which is a surprise given that their pre-workout is LITERALLY fully dosed.

2. You are literally getting everything you need for an EFFECTIVE workout! (refer to above ingredients). I mean.... I feel strong and energized the ENTIRE workout, and I don't experience a crash later, which leaves me feeling depleted. I had to kick up my workouts, because I feel so much stronger and can work for longer sets, so now I'm lifting heavier, or working more volume over one session. It feels incredible.

In this case, it is from the Antarctic Ocean, located in one of the coldest and cleanest places available. By taking Krill Oil, it\u2019s been said that you can find amazing health benefits including a healthier heart, a boost to your brain, an easier menstruation and more. For me, I can\u2019t really speak to each specifically as they are hard to judge subjectively, but I can tell you that I\u2019ve never felt better. The added CoQ10 makes this product over the top for me, I love being able to get that heart specific extra love in my diet. I did receive this product at a discount in order for my honest review, and that's what you got. By no means do I ever promise a good review, and by no means do I give them out every time. I rely on the reviews like you do when I decide on whether or not to purchase things on here. Nothing upsets me more than when people say they have something wonderful in their Amazon review and then I order it and it arrives at my house and its complete garbage. I assure you that is not the case here. This is a wonderful product for the price and I could not be happier.

When the box arrived, it was big enough to hold a medium suitcase. My first inclination of them was that they appeared to look like the real ones. But opening a set of 3, I instantly felt the thickness of the containers & they were definitely not as thick or stiff strong as the named brands. However, the containers are well made.
I had planned to organize one of my refrigerator fruits & vegetables bin as my first test spot, but first a really good clean job. Cooking & meal cheeses in one, batteries in another - if you don\u2019t know, don\u2019t ask! - snack meats & bulk cheeses in another two - four total for one bin. I was duly impressed. Three containers with everything sorted, and just some bacon & a celery laying loose. They are a good space savers for anything in the frig or freezer.
After using the tubs for holding food, how good are they for reuse after a wash? Excellent - hand wash was was a breeze - sponge with a dab of dishwashing liquid & you are done.
I have seen & purchased similar containers @ the $1 store, but these are far superior. They are not a direct substitute for the name brand products. But @ the price, the versatility, size, & reuse ease, these tubs are a clear keeper. Your chef might know the truth, but he is not telling anyone. 5 Stars All The Way.
EDIT: I forgot to add that I would like to see the containers come in different sizes. That would make the container packages more flexible on what you can store/size of the product. After I saw my posted review, I saw that they do come in different styles & sizes. It also appears to me that the construction of the containers might be different depending on the style of containers that are purchased.
For clarity - the reviews here are NOT for the same style, shape & quality that is in each lot. I got the 64 oz. 3 pack of 6 bundles - 18 containers total in the lot.", "label": 1}

The 60 softgel bottle is a 30 day supply. Just two a day provides 2500 mg of fish oil, EPA 900 mg, DHA 600 mg, Other Omega-3 Fatty Acids 300 mg. This is a good amount!
I have no problem taking this-- swallowing big smooth softgels dont bother me, I get no stomach upset, and not even any fishy tastes. Hint of lemon. I keep it at my desk and have it shortly after my first meal of the day. I take fish oil for my health, as we all should! More specifically to keep my cholesterol on check. All the other is bonus. I got remiss on taking fish caps. I normally buy liquid as it is usually easier to find the higher amount, and many of the soft gels types that I have tried have been woefully low (like, maybe 10% of this). I was working through some low dose/tiny softgels. I really need to get back to taking larger amounts, daily. The Vimerson Health Fish Oil Omega 3 has allowed me to do that. Sometimes I add in my other softgels later in the day, or take a swig of my liquid fish oil (my doctor said I can up to 5000mg daily- so I can double what I take of this, or just use up my other stuff).
Some fish caps and liquids can have a fishy aftertaste/burp. I am not sure what causes that-- whether it is the formula, or when it is taken. I haven't had that issue with these, but I do take them after I eat in the morning.
I included pics of the softgels, the measurement, and even of one in my mouth. I suppose one could pop the soft gels and empty it out onto a spoon, or food. But really, these go down super easy... unlike tablets, capsules and softgels tend to be like that.", "label": 1}

The 'comfort pad' is the simple pad, that extends the collar. It does have a pocket, which you could insert a gel pack (this is not mentioned in the product details, nor is any gel pack included) to have heat/cold therapy.
The magnetic pad looks like a regular pad (no pocket), until you touch the pad and notice some hard objects embedded inside the pad. these are the magnets composed of Tourmaline. Tourmaline magnets are used to promote circulation and calm/soothe one's nerves/anxieties. These magents also 'self-heat' warming up as they come in close proximity to the body. I had my doubts about this feature. However, after testing the pad by placing it on my thigh, it gradually warmed up. I will admit that I was surprised.
The heating pad has a receptacle to accept a power cord. This cord connects to a USB source for power. Note that no USB power plug is included. For a device like this, I think the appropriate USB power plug should be included. Just be aware that you'll need to be near a USB port or have a spare/available USB power plug.
Attached to the USB power cord is the controller. It has two functional buttons: timer and heat controllers.
Pressing each button will cycle through their respective options. An indicator light will signify the chosen selection. Very simple, especially with good contrast, easy to read/understand labeling.
The cervical collar, with three functions, delivers on the product details statements. It performs as expected, including the surprising magnetic (Tourmaline) pad. As a simple cervical support collar, it is comfortable with adequate support. And since the pads are similar, this comfort and support is consistent amongst the three function pads.
Attached are photos to show real world images of the collar, with a ruler for size reference.
Based on these initial impressions, this product meets expectations, earning a 4.5 star rating, with a high level recommendation.", "label": 1}

I smoke maybe 2-3 cigars in a year so budget long term storage is what I am going for. This humidor was easy to setup and had instructions on how to season the box and test the hygrometer. I like the window on the top of the box because it lets me read the hygrometer without opening the lid and letting the humidity out. The rest of the box feels solid and well built, the outer finish is polished and shiny so if you\u2019re into a more traditional look it might be a little too much. The cedar interior is also well built and thought out, there\u2019s one included separator for the top shelf to help organize your cigars. The lid creates a good seal. Wood (especially cedar) can have the tendency to warp or change its shape but they have done a really good job machining the lid to have a perfect fit and seal.
The hygrometer included is digital and can\u2019t be calibrated. I checked it using the salt on a spoon method and after 6 hours it read 73% which is pretty close to 75% and within the margin of error +/- 2% in the instructions. The temp reading takes awhile to adjust but after an hour it was reading the exact room temperature.
The included humidor puck and hygrometer are loose and each have some 3M double sided tape to attach them to the interior of the box. This was one feature I was not a fan of. The box has a premium feel and does a really good job of holding a consistent temp and humidity levels so it was surprising they went with cheaper components. The hygrometer looks like it was added to the kit last minute and doesn\u2019t fit the rest of the theme. I can\u2019t bring myself to slap it with some 3M double sided tape to the nice cedar finish on the inside so I just set it under the window frame. I may upgrade to a nice looking analog hygrometer in the future.
If you are a cigar newbie like me this kit has everything you need minus the humidor fluid and cigars. The strongest feature of this box is well it can keep a consistent humidity level which is fundamentally what you need a humidor to do.", "label": 1}

I originally bought these for my Firefighter II class last fall. Since the majority of the class is truck related tasks (ventilation, extrication, forced entry, etc), I figured I would get heavy use out of these.
When they arrived, I noticed they were flimsy and cheap looking. The eyecups looked shallower than the picture. But, given the price, I gave it a pass. I eagerly packed them with my school stuff.
The next day we were doing ventilation drills with chainsaws. I put these on and watched my instructor draw the cut pattern. I guess, to be more precise, I watched a cloudy version of my instructor as the lenses began to fog up. Wait\u2026 weren\u2019t the lenses anti-fog? I chalked it up to being in the warm apparatus bay, but brought along my regular safety glasses just in case. I checked the vents and one of them had slid closed, so I reopened it. I wiped the lenses with my thumb (since I was in full gear) and put them back on. While I was waiting for my turn to cut, they started fogging up again. So I put them on my helmet and used my glasses.
I took them home that night and brainstormed how to make them work. I liked the way the amber lenses cut out the sunlight and they looked cool. I really wanted to make these work. I reasoned the vents closing (they had slid closed again several times) was the problem. So I removed the covers so they were always opened.
A couple of days later we were doing extrication work on a MUCH colder day (in the teens or so). I slipped these on and they still fogged up off and on. But when I started doing any kind of work, they fogged over again. So I retired them to the back of my helmet for the rest of the class.
The plus side is since I put the goggles on my helmet backwards, people started calling me Wildcat. I've noticed the poor reviews of this product, and its similar iterations. I wish they existed before I bought these; I wouldn't have wasted my money.", "label": 0}

I think it makes for a quick snack- either to take care of a sweet tooth need, or just need something to nosh on to take care of hungries before next meal. When I am on the go all day, I often dont eat anything until dinner (Im just not hungry, and copious amounts of coffee and/or a smoothie takes care of my need to masticate a meal), but.. sometimes I do get a little hungry. OK, sometimes a lot. lol. I pack some snack bars just in case, but sometimes I want a better mouth feel/different texture than what a dry bar provides. SO give me cheese stick, olives, meat stick.. and now these yam sticks. Of all the other options, these are the easiest for me as they are room temperature stable. Now I can have one of these and maybe a handful of nuts, and I am satisfied enough to hold off until dinner.
Has a light, mild taste. I think kids would like this as it isnt as strong as some sweet potatoes. I know some of the flavor is dependent on the type of sweet potato/yam used, and region. That is the extent of my expertise, though haha.
The texture is decent. It is a soft with a little bit of chew. Easy to eat. I have another yam product I prefer (about as mild, but little more chew), but I would totally buy these again. If only because I can control myself better. This is 80 calories per stick, where as the other is a bag at 180 per serving/bag. Not bad, but I dont always need that much at once (but I cant control myself haha). So different items purchased for different reasons. If you want to get fancy, this would be delightful paired with a slice of turkey or chicken, then maybe a slice of cheese all rolled in a small soft tortilla shell. Or ditch the meat, and add in avocado. Hmm, making myself hungry now.

For a while I bulked at the high price of the Oticon ConnectLine TV 3.0 for Oticon Opn. But I jumped for it when it went on sale (from Hearing_Aid_Accessories in the UK), and I'm glad that I did. The sound is awesome.
You pair your hearing aids once to the streamer. Pairing adds a new mode; so now I have NORMAL, CLASSROOM, and STREAMER; hold down the right HA button for three seconds to move to the next mode. Five minutes with no sound moves you from STREAMER to back NORMAL mode, presumably to save battery power; sometimes this is convenient and sometimes not -- but it takes only a few seconds to bring STREAMER mode back. The connection is very stable; if the sound starts breaking up, change the batteries -- they are almost dying anyway. You can move a pretty good distance and still keep the connection; this is good for doing exercise videos or for jumping on a trampoline during football games.
The photo shows my setup. My external speakers are on the bottom; the top has a 4-output amplifier on the left and the Oticon streamer on the right, both secured to the top by velcro strips. The wired amplifier input goes into the back of my TCL TV and gives whatever sound goes with the main screen (computer, TV, Roku streaming, whaever). Amplifier output 1 goes into the speakers underneath, 2 and 3 go into pillow speakers (these give quite good sound when your head with HAs rest on the speaker -- this is a a cheaper alternative but limits mobility), and 4 goes to the Oticon streamer (with the amplifier at max -- click the hearing aids to regulate volume). While I can adjust the sound of all four independently, I use the streamer most of the time.
If you want the sound louder, max the volume on your hearing aids and lower the audio going into the streamer. If you overload the streamer, the audio quality suffers.
For additional HA and streamer features, get the free OTICON ON app for your android or apple phone.
If you're on the fence, buy this device -- the sound is amazingly good.", "label": 1}

I remember that I was impressed with the Bodyblade when it came out and I am still just as impressed. I have two Lites and a Classic at home. I came on line today to purchase another for home and more for our new rehab clinic. The Bodyblade was in the top portion of my equipment list for the new clinic. I use it for lots of orthopedic patients but it can be good for neuro patients as well such as paraplegics and more. It is light, portable, fun and effective.
Sure, I do get some people who can't figure out how to make it work but many do figure it out, some faster than others. The people that \"get it\" are impressed with it's effectiveness and have fun doing it. Some purchase their own for home.
Regarding sizes: The Lite is fantastic for rehab of the shoulder, especially for single-armed exercises. I use them at home for straight armed exercises as well since the straight armed exercises are more challenging. The CXT is great for beginner core strength and for progressing shoulder rehab. I personally think that lots of folks could get by with a CXT for some of the more difficult core exercises. I am a pretty fit guy (but only 155#) and find that I have to decrease the intensity of my oscillations of the Classic quite a bit to last very long on some of the core exercises. That's why I'm purchasing a CXT for home. If a person can get two blades for fitness, I would recommend the CXT and the Classic. I can't imagine how difficult the Pro model must feel. I would recommend that for big, strong college and professional athletes.
The blades are so easy to store and you can take them with you to exercise on vacation or outdoors, etc. They are very durable as well.
The videos are educational and the workouts are good. A person can be so creative with these, so \"the sky is the limit\" as to what you can do with these.
I still believe that Bruce helped revolutionize rehabilitation and fitness with the invention of the Bodyblade. Thanks, Bruce.", "label": 1}

I dove into the research and discovered that this particular supplement is designed to help relieve your joint pain, improve skin health, and remove toxins as well as help repair cartilage. Diving into a bunch of clinical studies I found many that showed improve of subjects, and also many that showed it was no better than a placebo. With the scientific studies being divided I figured the best thing to do was to give it a good try.
I compared this to a lot of other products you'd find at Wal-Mart and other online and it seems this product may be slightly less potent per pill than other offerings, but if you calculate the price vs dose ratio it isn't actually much more expensive. I also feel that the capsules allow for better absorption than those solid pills.
I gave this particular supplement a minimum of 30 days to ensure it was given plenty of time. I have back joint issues, knee issues, hip issues, wrist and shoulder issues, etc. So I knew if it worked I would at least know from one of these improving.
A lot of places suggested to take a "higher starting dose" for the first couple of weeks to help build up the body's levels of the supplement. So I took a daily double dose for those two weeks, and then a normal recommended dose the remaining 2 weeks. The pills themselves were fine and I had no issues, they were slightly big but nothing too difficult to swallow.
I honestly did not notice significant improvement until well into the third week. I was getting out of bed and going about my day without even noticing any pain, when previously I acknowledged the pain constantly as it was hard to ignore. By the end of the fourth week I feel that there was a 75% reduction in joint paint throughout my entire body. I look forward to trying it longer to seeing if there is additional improvement.

PROS:
-1 bottle = 1 month supply if you take 1 capsule per day. 1 bottle contains 30 vegetarian capsules (directions indicate an adult can take 1-3 capsules daily.)
-This is a herbal supplement is a nutrient for the bran, not a toxic chemical. (however you should only take under the care of a physician.)
-Phosphatidylserine is naturally found in meat and fish, and can be more difficult for vegetarians to get the proper amount of Phosphatidylserine from their diet.
-Phosphatidylserine is a phospholipid compound, derived from soy letcithin, and is important to the process of cell membrane composition and inter-cellular communication. It is also an essential structural component of the neural membranes, where it assists in conduction of electrical impulses and the activities of neurotransmitters involved in learning, memory, and mood.
-While I did not notice any immediate results upon taking the supplement, it did seem to help with my ability to focus and think clearly after taking everyday for three weeks.
-100% Money back guarantee.
CONS:
-If you take these capsules at the maximum dosing, the bottle only lasts 10 days.
-Capsules are a bit larger than what I like to have to swallow, although, compared to other memory and brain supplements, the capsule size is average. (I have difficulty swallowing, so it is difficult for me.)

Look: most of the so-called \"XL\" or \"jumbo\" masks out there are really just regular masks relabeled as \"XL\". I was beyond frustrated at buying yet another \"XL\" mask that felt tight over my face and pulled on my ears even though it was stretched to the max. So when these came up as recommended I decided to bite the bullet and give them a shot.
That was a month ago. When it arrived, it fit like a glove. I have a huge head and this ACTUALLY FITS COMFORTABLY! I don't mean \"it fits but you have to stretch it all the way out\", or \"it fits but just barely\", I mean \"it fits, it feels fine, and I have plenty of room left over to adjust\". As in, \"finally, someone understands that not everyone has the same size head\". Since then, I ordered two more XL for me and three regular size for my wife. One of the XLs arrived with a defect, but the seller immediately sent a replacement with zero hassle. That's important: any product can have defects, but what matters is how the seller handles it.
The neck loop means you can tighten the mask as much or as little as you like, and it comes in handy when you're out running errands and going from store to store. The filter pouch is nice to have, but the mask is much larger than your average PM2.5 filter, so adding the filter won't really do much -- still, it's there as an option if you prefer.
Care is a piece of cake. We've been washing them in the washing machine using a lingerie bag, then letting them hang to air dry. We've had zero problems.
Again, if you're frustrated with fake \"XL\" masks and are questioning whether these will actually fit, these are your masks!", "label": 1}

This shaver is different. It's just as close as a manual razor. My legs and underarms are just as smooth as if I've just whipped out the shaving cream and straight razor. I also love how the five heads are put together in natural curves to complement the human body. It's as if this was custom designed to fit over my knee caps - and how many electric shavers can actually get the knees smooth? Up and down, or around in circles, this safe razor will never hurt you.
As an awesome bonus, this razor comes with several attachments. (To change attachments, and to clean it, read the manual and have some faith that pushing and pulling won't break the device.) I've tried the trimmer with the three levels of attachments, and it's not barber-quality but it's good enough in a pinch. The facial massage and scrubber are really nice. The dry brush massage is so gentle, and the soft plastic scrubber really adds an extra oomph to my cleanser. Thankfully, I haven't had to use the nose hair clippers, so I can't report on the effectiveness.
It also comes with a little brush to clean under the heads (again, read the manual), and a small bottle of oil so you can replenish the lubrication. My device came pre-lubricated, which was nice.

In doing research for on Molybdenum Gluycinate, I found the following: "The main known function of molybdenum in humans is to act as a catalyst for enzymes and to help facilitate the breakdown of certain amino acids in the body. Molybdenum combines with sulfite oxidase to catalyze sulfur-containing amino acids that are crucial for human health. Molybdenum is classified as a metallic element and found widely in nature in nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Molybdenum is essential in trace amounts for human, animal and plant health. In humans and animals, molybdenum serves mainly as an essential cofactor of enzymes and aids in the metabolism of fats and carbohydrates."

Results, however, depend on many variables. I would just like to caution people not to succumb to expectations that their own experience will be as dramatic as cases cited in the book EARTHING or associated videos. Likewise don't deny yourself the possible measure of success that could be yours because others...even 'science-minded' others... challenge its efficacy. There is a common bias against newer science that does not comport with old science. We don't know everything there is to know about anything, and we are so uncomfortable with not knowing it is easy to shut down our minds when we get to that borderland of what could be. You know your body best. Stay open-minded and work with safe modalities that you are drawn to and decide for yourself on direct personal experience .
My direct experience was after the 2nd or 3rd night of sleeping on this pad that the sore knots running down the outside of my thighs were only slightly tender by morning. They have been a chronic annoyance for years and they were sore again by the next evening but not quite as much as usual. I have lots of inflammatory issues... a collection I have accumulated over years. I expect reversals to take time and be measured rather than miraculous. The inflammation has to come down before the body's natural healing process has a chance. I'm giving it time and then I will add to my review.
There is definitely a side effect that needs more recognition. After several days I felt so amped and antsy after 2 or 3 hours I had to get off of it. THIS IS COMMON! I contacted the manufacturer and was counseled to just moderate my grounding while my body adjusts. In 10 days I was getting a healthy duration of restful sleep and now the energized sensation is welcome because I get up feeling like I can take on the day's activities. Previously my body was so uncomfortable it could not relax enough for me to get any restorative sleep until the sun was coming up. I would get up feeling that I had hardly slept.

This review is my own opinion. Beware: At first, I thought this was a whole floor cleaning system; it is just the soap wafers that you put into your own bucket and use your own mop. This is just a small box of soap wafers. Just wanted you to know, since I was confused by the advertising photos. I thought I was getting a whole mopping system along with these wafers.
Directions: You put a little over a gallon of water in your bucket, depending on how much dirt you need to remove. Drop in a wafer to dissolve about a minute, and then clean your floor.
Info:
-As advertised, the wafers are easy to carry around if you have a lot of areas you need to clean, instead of carrying around bottles of cleaner.
-Wafers means no danger of spilling your floor cleaning soap.
-The cleansing wafers are about the thickness of a few sheets of good paper, and feels almost sponge-like, so they are very lightweight
-Vegan
-Cleans your tile floors sufficiently
Pros:
They are lightweight, thin, and easy to use.
I used one wafer to about 1.3 gallons of water, and it suds up nicely. The suds were still there when I was done.
Since it is not liquid, there are no spills from a bottle container.
-Pleasant and very light scent.
Cons:
-I have really dirty floors. If you plan on doing heavy-duty cleaning, you might need something else.
Recommendations for the company:
I wish these wafers came in a reclosable bag. The bag is open on one end, without a way to close the plastic bag after each use, to make sure to keep the product dry between uses. It may help keep the product more efficient between cleanings.
Overall, I enjoyed using this product. I think it is a brilliant idea to put soap into a sheet, kind of like some of the dryer sheets that we use for drying laundry. I only gave it four stars because it did not really clean the difficult stains. I do recommend it for lighter stains and general tile floor cleaning.", "label": 1}

I work the graveyard shift so I sleep in a mask every single day. I prefer the 3D design for comfort and was tired of replacing thin foam 3D masks. I thought I'd try a more premium model and hoped a modular one would get me a more comfortable fit.
While this mask is nice and well-made from good materials, there were some issues that made it a poor fit for me.
First, the eye cups are much smaller than I expected (and I have a very small head and face) and made from a foam that I found too firm. I had to try to position it under the ridge of my eyebrows to seal out the light, which put very uncomfortable pressure on my eyes.
Also, I'm African American and this mask is really designed for a Caucasian face and head with a prominent nose bridge, narrow nostrils and sort of an egg-shaped head. My nose bridge is shallower, my nostrils are broad, and I have a prominent suboccipital ridge on the the back of my head. Any mask I wear has to sit above that ridge, or the strap will just slide down into my neck.
After much fiddling and positioning the straps every which way, I couldn't find a way to wear it that would seal out the light (I kept getting a large gap at the top just over my nose) and stay put. The single strap is a straight line with velcro and no elastic, so placing it higher on the back of my head caused the front of the mask to gap.
On my final attempt to sleep in this mask, I positioned the strap lower, but tightened it more, and woke up with marks all over my ears and ear pain that didn't go away for two hours. None of my failed sleep sessions in the mask provided an acceptable level of light blocking.
It's too bad, because the product is nice and the seller is great to deal with, but it just doesn't fit me. I'll be returning the product.", "label": 0}

I bought a couple of approximately 35X60 inch microfiber backpacking towels for over $20 each, because they were extremely lightweight and absorbent. Weight is as important to me as it is to a mountain climber, I can carry only so much.
I was hoping that this was made out of the same material as the towels, and was disappointed to find that it was different, having a sight nap. Also it was the same size as the towels, but was heavier, 11.2 ounces as opposed to 6.8 each for the towels, of course I believe most of the difference in weight has to do with the weight of the 8 inch velcro strips and elastic band.
It turned out to be perfect for my needs. The elastic strip around the top is very good with a lot of stretch, and thus I believe anyone who can wrap a 60" towel around themselves will find it fits them.
And the best thing is this wrap is super absorbent, as absorbent as the towels of the same size that were over twice the price.
I hated having to change in fount of all the women in the locker room. Now, after my shower, I wrap myself in this and by the time I dry the parts of myself that were not covered, the parts that were are dry. I just put my lower clothes on without even removing the wrap, thus a lot of my modesty is maintained.
I read a couple of other reviews, where people were complaining the velcro stuck to other things, and yes, that is the nature of velcro, but I do not find it a difficult chore to always close the velcro scripts together when not wearing it.
Also, this wrap dries very quickly, in less then a forth of the time as terrycloth. After hanging it up after use, I find it is completely dry only 4 or 5 hours later.", "label": 1}

First, I was surprised by how solid and well-made the tools are. These aren't the cheap nail tools you sometimes find, that are warped or have rough edges. These are perfectly shaped and highly polished to a smooth finish.
Everyone in the house has used at least one set of the clippers. They both work well for a nice, clean cut on the first try. The set includes an ear pick, which I'd never use on my ear, because I don't trust that I'm coordinated enough not to hurt myself. It does, however, make a great tool for cleaning under the nails, as well as putting on rhinestones. There's also an acne needle, for which I feel similarly unqualified to use. It does, however, have a blackhead tool on the other end that I'd consider using.
I've used everything in the set, and my favorites are the scissors and the cuticle pusher. I reach for those most often. The scissors are sharp, and allow for precision in cutting hangnails, as well as decals and stickers. The cuticle pusher lays flat against the nail, so I can get a clean push back without lifting up the cuticle.
Now, the brushes were an exception, and I had an issue with them. They have soft bristles that feel good on the face. The problem I had was that all of them had stray and unruly bristles. That made for streaky application. I decided to take a chance and trim them, which helped tremendously. I still prefer round brushes to flat ones like these, for applying makeup, but, after my bit of doctoring, they provide easy even application of powder, shadow, and blush.
Overall, this is a nice set, and it looks really cute in my nail area. It includes lots of useful tools. Even though I had to do a little tweaking, it turned out well. It would be a great gift for any makeup lover.
I received this manicure and makeup set free to evaluate in exchange for my honest review. Any opinion I've expressed is purely mine and based on my own personal experience using this set.", "label": 1}

The scale was easy to set up and works great. If you are looking for something that is simple and straightforward in a scale, this would be a good one to try.
I wanted to get a scale for the master bathroom that my husband and I could use. I had a lot of options to choose from but I didn\u2019t want something that was complicated or confusing to use. Something that I could simply just step on and it would tell me my current weight. I saw this scale and decided to give it a try. The following are my thoughts regarding this product.
**Pros
1. Easy to use - All you essentially need to do is insert the batteries and that is it. The scale turns on and all you need to do then is step on the scale. There is an option in the back of the scale to choose the whether you want the display in pounds or kilograms.
2. Design - The design of the scale is very nice. The scale is made out of glass and has line print around the border of the scale. The design is simple enough that it would fit in a lot of different decor and its streamline design allows you to place the scale in your bathroom without taking up a lot of room. Another nice feature is the the LCD screen that displays your weight lights up to show you weight even in low light.
**Cons
1. I do not really have a con regarding this product. The only thing that you do have to keep in mind is that there is a weight limit to the scale so if you do weight 400+ pounds, this scale will not be able to register and provide you your weight.

I never heard of the red-light therapy for skin issues but am still fighting an allergic reaction on my hands to something I used in home repairs more than a month ago \u2013 so wanted to try it there as well.
The instructions say to use the light one to three inches from the surface of your skin as otherwise you may burn your skin. I do not think the head of this things where the light is emitted gets that hot. It gets warm. So, I did not get any burns even when I put it directly against skin.

The body of the flashlight gets hot though \u2013 well not hot per se, but more very warm \u2013 much warmer than the head at least \u2013 I should say that is where I felt all the heat.
For my ankle \u2013 it didn\u2019t make it feel any worse and after using it at night I felt no pain in my ankle. My pain is not constant, though anyway. I tried it on my left hand as well \u2013 where the prickly skin is from my allergic reaction. Upon waking the next day, my left hand looked better \u2013 less red \u2013 than my right hand.

I've taken to using dry shampoo for 3 and 4 days to avoid washing and doing the process all over again. Well, this brush solves all my problems. The day after I got it I took a shower at night letting my hair air dry a little bit before bed. When I woke the next morning it was pretty gnarly looking (think Janis Joplin). I sprayed it with my heat protectant and hit it with the blowdryer for roughly 5 minutes just to make sure it was completely dry (that underneath layer was still damp). I cranked the brush up to 450F while I was blow drying and she was ready by the time I was done. I brushed my hair thoroughly to make sure there were no knots to snag. Then the miraculous occurred, I think I heard a heavenly choir singing. I slowly brushed the first section of my hair. There was no strange pulling, no scalding piece of hair to hold, no weird kinks against my scalp but it was straight! Oh wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles! I did one side and then decided I needed to document this process. I went and got dressed (must wear a bra for the public good) and grabbed my phone to take a few pictures.

I didn't get any finger burns from lava hot hair, I even picked out a few stray hairs from the brush while it was on and it didn't burn me (what is this sorcery!).

I thought it would be a nice addition to the supplies I take. I liked the idea that it was supposed to be for 25 people, was separated into sections for usage, and came in a hard case. I thought it would also be good to take with us when we go camping.
First, it appears that this item is as advertised. It is a basic first aid kit to "clean, treat, and protect" in case of accident or emergency. This is why I am giving them five stars.
When I received this item, I was a bit disappointed in how the box is organized. The way it is separated is by a six-section re-closable plastic pouch that is marked with what you are supposed to use each of the sections for. This is a decent idea, but you cannot separate the sections (I guess I could cut them apart), so I can\u2019t organize them the way I would like to. They are re-closable, but the way it is accomplished is by a sticky strip on the face of the pack that the flap sticks to. In my opinion, six separate, zip-closable sections would be better, or section off the case.
The supplies provided are basic first-aid supplies. In my opinion, fabric bandages would be better than plastic ones, as they stay in place better, but that\u2019s just personal preference. I have not had an opportunity to use any of the supplies yet, so I\u2019m not sure of their quality. They seem to be the typical, basic ones provided in all first-aid kits.
I think it would be an OK starter kit.

1) Size: the footprint is nice. It doesn't take up a lot of space; I'd call it medium size maybe leaning toward small. I've definitely seen many that were bigger, so you don't need a lot of space to use this
2) lighting: I'd prefer a dimmer light personally, thought the breath function and colors are nice. If you have this right near the bed, it's a bit too bright I'd say, but if it's obstructed or you're not facing it than it isn't bad at all.
3) volume: volume control is good--I'm not sure why you'd want it loud (I guess if you have a lot of street noise), but it can get a decent volume on it
4) sounds: this was the more problematic issue for us. We just didn't find many of the sounds pleasurable or soothing. Some would have soothing parts, but then a loud surge of sound would appear, which would seem to defeat the purpose. We've heard others that were just more tranquil, soothing. some of that can be somewhat ameliorated by the volume control obviously, but still wasn't what we were expecting. There are a good number and variety, but honestly we'd only use 3, possibly 4. On the other hand, if you're looking for \"drown-out\" sound, you might find that less of an issue
5) timer is good and works well. Never understood ones that came without them, so this is a good, I'd say required, touch

This foot massager works very well and comes with a manual and a remote control. The quality is there and I love the red metallic color. Depending on where you place your feet, the pressure it puts on my feet can be a little painful sometimes. Maybe not to others but it would be great if there was a setting to have light and hard pressure.
There are 4 different auto modes and 3 different modes that focus on your toes, arch or sole. There are also 3 speed settings and a direction setting which allows you to choose if you want the massage to focus going forward or backwards. You can only use the speed and direction options if you choose to use the massage in manual mode only. So you can choose to get a auto massage, a massage that focuses on your toes, arch or sole, or manually where you can choose the direction and speed.
The feeling, there is a feeling of a ball placing pressure and rolling under your feet and pads on each side that will place pressure and squeeze your feet, syncing with the movement of the ball that rolls. And I do move my feet around to see how the massager feels like instead of just placing my feet in the same area the whole time, this actually helps a lot when I'm uncomfortable with the pressure and only need part of my foot massaged. My favorite setting so far is "sole".
This massager is big but that doesn't bother me since it's a well made foot massager, and there are handles on each side if you want to pick it up. The cord is short but an extension fixes that. The included manual is simple and easy to understand.
Pros:
- Quality, product is well made.
- Works well.
- Rolling balls under your feet and pads on sides sync during massage.
Cons:
- No pressure setting, can feel uncomfortable.
- Short cord.
This is a very promising product, if there was a pressure setting it would definitley help with feeling more comfortable since everyone has different feet. But now I won't have to ask someone for a foot massage and I'm definitely going to pull this massager out after a long day of walking or if I just feel like lounging around and relaxing.

I like that it takes a new measurement every time you step on. I've had some scales in the past that didn't seem to budge unless you lost or gained a pound or two, and sometimes that big jump was quite unwelcome. It measures quickly, identifies me and syncs right to my Fitbit account immediately. I was initially concerned because the bathroom that it is located in has the worst wifi connection in my whole house, but so far I haven't missed a single reading on it.
The bodyfat % definitely does fluctuate, but as I'm familiar with other devices that measure bodyfat I also know that things as simple as whether your stomach is empty or full and how dehydrated you are can cause this to fluctuate quite a bit. The percentage itself might not be extremely accurate, but if you weigh yourself at the same time and under similar circumstances daily (ie. first thing in the morning before you've eaten or had anything to drink), then it is accurate enough to let you know whether your percentage is increasing or decreasing over time. This isn't a professional bodyfat measuring tool, and it's unreasonable to expect it to work as well as one.
I'm the only one currently using my scale so I can't comment on the difficulties some people have with multiple users or guest users. Setting it up was extremely simple and now I don't have to wonder if I remembered to log my weight in my Fitbit account or not. In fact now I can't do things like "forget" to log my weight after a rough weekend. I like to know where I'm at on my journey so I don't find myself avoiding getting on the scale to avoid having the weight logged, which I was actually worried about. Overall it has just become a comfortable part of my routine and caused me to have to be a bit more accountable to myself. I'm quite happy with my Aria.", "label": 1}

This is GREAT stuff. And It certainly IS moisturizing, though not oily. Hyaluronic Acid is a powerful humectant- it draws water to it so the moisture comes from the HA, not oil.

I\u2019ve used this on my entire face/neck cleavage region including the eyes & lips. Any extra I rub into my hands. The Price has gone up slightly but the tube is huge and it lasts a long time. The price is incredibly reasonable in light of the concentration of Hyaluronic Acid which FAR exceeds that of any American product which contains HA- especially at THIS price-point! One could easily spend double or even triple this price for a cream containing less than 5% Hyaluronic Acid! I even sent a tube to my friend(whose skin is quite dry where mine is normal to oily) as a gift and she LOVES it too.
Bottom line- it\u2019s great stuff! Good for any skin type, extremely High Quality with far more active ingredient than you\u2019ll find in any other $20 moisturizer.", "label": 1}

Mine was cheaper with the BBB coupon. I filled mine up with partly warm water and it maintained the heat for 30 minutes. I was under no illusions about the bubbles, vibration or massagers being worth anything. The bubbles and the vibration are both loud even though I have the unit on carpet. I keep expecting DH to tell me to do it elsewhere while we watch tv at night. I find the pointy foot rollers more irritating than anything else. There is too short a placement so you feet must sit in practically the same spot every time. Good for you if you like them. Larger smooth rollers or none would feel better to me. The first time I used the bubbles it took several minutes to start up and then it worked right off each time. You do have to use either the bubbles or the vibration if you want the heater to work.
It's a far cry from a professional pedicure station, but just being able to soak my feet in a foot shaped tub was worth it for me. I do use the vibration and bubbles to help agitate the water and possibly loosen up the dirt that was in my horribly cracked heels. After one 30 minute soak they looked 100% better. I use epsom salts that I dissolved in the first pitcher of water I pour into it. Since it is summer I am enjoying a cool soak for my feet now. They show one of the 4 attachments that you can put on the center piece. You'd have to be a lot more coordinated than I am to use it right there. I do like the attachments which are handy to have right there. It's kind of awkward to carry so I fill it while it is on the floor and dump the water out into a bucket rather than try carrying it across the room.
Bottom line, I am glad I got it but wish the rollers were removable and it would be nice if the cord were removable, too so I don't have to worry about tripping on it while I carry it if water is still in it..", "label": 1}

First, the dental floss. It's amazing! I have very tight space in between my back molars, but this slides through with just enough resistance to pick up what has got to without hurting my gums. What I found ingenious, and I am not sure if this was done on purpose or if it is the inevitable result of producing silk floss, is that the floss is not completely smooth. I don't mean to say it is rough. The intertwined strands of silk create a larger surface area and thus are much more efficient in removing deposits in between teeth! My mouth feels truly clean and refreshed after flossing! When I think of the other brands of dental floss out there I wonder how come they are all so smooth! But the main reason for purchasing this is that I am actively trying to get my house rid of plastics. Just by making some small changes, we noticed that our waste has decreased tremendously. I have always been worried about the environment and always tried making the best decisions when purchasing anything, but I must say that companies like Dental Lace have made this process of diminishing waste easier these days. This brings me to the only negative observation I made on this product. All wrappings are biodegradable and seem to be made of post-consumer recycling, but the refills come in a small plastic wrapping. If this is made of recycled plastic, of course it is better than using new plastics, but it would have been better if there were no plastic at all. Plastic can only be recycled a few times to which point it is not viable to be used any longer, as far as I understand. So, in the end, it goes to the land fill, rivers and oceans. The best is to avoid plastics altogether. This is the only reason why I did not give 5 stars to this product. I do hope Dental Lace will consider an environmentally friendly solution to the use of plastic in this case. Perhaps biodegradable plastic or waxed paper to protect the floss from contamination? I imagine contamination would be the worry here. Thank you for this wonderful product!", "label": 1}

I'm from Australia so wanted to purchase the authentic Tahitian tamanu oil. I read a lot of reviews on different brands not having the correct dark olive color or a pungent stench but this product is a deep green shade and seems to be of a high-quality. The smell is there but doesn't bother me.
I've tried a number of things for my perioral dermatitis - steroid creams, hydrocortisone, grape seed oil, hemp seed oil, calendula oil, coconut oil - what I've found to help is to keep the area dry. The best thing to dry-out raw flare-ups is sea salt (Himalayan or Celtic) and I spray this in a small bottle with spring water 3-4 times per day and rinse or dust-off once the salt is dry. Personally, I don't use tap water as I live in New York and the hard water is too harsh for my skin, so I've recently started using alcohol-free witch hazel, which feels gentle, cleans my face well and has also assisted in clearing my skin. I find my dermatitis dries-up fast with the sea salt spray, leaving my skin a bit dry and scaley but raw bump and itch free.
I've been appling the tamanu oil overnight for a couple of weeks. The brilliant thing is that although it's an oil, it doesn't leave any oily residue or make my dermatitus flare-ups fester like a fungal infection (unlike using steroid creams or the other oils I mentioned above - especially coconut oil, although I use this for the eczema on my body, after drying it up with the sea salt spray, and it softens my skin very quickly). Now I\u2019m waking up with smooth matte cheeks, the redness is reduced and the dermatitis scaring is fading... I'm very pleased!

It turns out that most of the clippers are apparently made by only a handful of factories, with various nameplates attached, different boxes, and variations in what is included in the kit. The geneal quality of these clippers is suprisingly good these days.
This particular clipper package is pretty spare and I'd call it entry level. You get decent quality clippers in a metal+plastic body, adjustable clipper gap length, and a LCD readout that gives percentage of battery charge available and an oiling reminder (but no clipper oil is included in the package)
A summary of the parts in this kit:
** Clipper with metal/plastic case (lower part metal, upper part feels like plastic), adjustable headgap, LCD charge and oil-reminder readout
** Clipper powered by a 1500 mAh battery, which is smaller than the typical battery for this type of clipper (2000-2500 mAh)
** 4 plastic length guides, NOT color coded
** A USB-A to Clipper charging cable (charger not included)
** A small cleaning brush
** A plastic carry bag
** Instructions
** Retail box
Despite the brand name under which this is listed, the actual clipper is branded as Suttik, model JM-104. A lot of different clippers are available under the Suttik name on Amazon.
The contents of this kit are somewhat below average for this segment. The main attraction here is the clipper, and it's solid--although the construction of the upper part (the part with the LCD display) of the clipper feels like plastic, as does the gap length adjustment lever. I wonder about the long-term durability of the gap-length adjustment.
Given that this clipper and kit fall at the lower end of things (smaller battery, small set of clipper guides, no clipper oil), I'd hope to find this kit for a bit of a discount relative to other options. That said, the clipper itself is solid, and outside of the lack of clipper oil, this is probably most of what the average person will need.", "label": 1}

I sure as heck did as my 11yo child kept asking us to repeat ourselves multiple times a day. We thought he was testing us. Well, last week the 11tr old went in for a regular check up. Lo and bold: the Dr. could not get in there and see anything as my son\u2019s ears were full of wax.
We came home and did debrox for 2-3 days in each ear to loosen and soften the wax.
And then it was time; time for me to step up and clean out these ears using the elephant ear system.
I filled the bottle in thirds: 1/3 lukewarm water, another 1/3 with room temp hydrogen peroxide, and rubbing alcohol for the last 1/3. I did not measure.
When you do to start squeezing the sprayer, You do need to prime it a few times. I did this into the basin so that my son would not feel air blown into his ear. Once the solution was spraying, I put the very flexible tube into his ear, nor far at first.
Two squeezes and wax was flowing. I did this a few times and then started to place the flexible tip into his ear at different angles to make sure we got most of it. I thought we were finished with my sons ear as he said \u201cI can hear!\u201d I said let\u2019s do one more squeeze to make sure. I\u2019m so glad I did the one more squeeze, as more came out.
Since this happened everyone has had their ears cleaned.
I think there are some key factors as to why it worked for us:
1. We used slightly warm water and hydrogen peroxide to soften the wax and I believe the alcohol helps prevent swimmers ear.
2 we prepped each ear for 2-3 days by using debrox.
3. I changed the angle of the plastic tubing in the ear while squirting, so that the different angles would dislodge more gunk
This has saved me money by not having to see the dr. It\u2019s also one last place we moms have to taxi to for the week.

I've bought several rolls of this wonder tape for friends with shoulder pain, leg pain, and even a large lymphodema...but until I tried it myself, I had only their opinions. Each and every one of them has loved it!
And now I'm a believer, too. This kinesiology tape is nothing short of a miracle!!! I slightly round the corners, then place one 8-inch strip horizontally across my lower back just below my waist, stretching it in the middle and leaving about an inch and a half unstretched at each end. It's easy to put on, and it stays put for at least three to four days (even through daily showers and dips in the pool)! But the best part is, IT WORKS!!! It actually relieves my lower back pain!!! I can see a big difference even in a few hours without it on. And it's so lightweight, It's almost like it's not on your body at all...you can't even feel it!
I'm very happy with this Vancic Kinesiology Tape and hope you'll try it yourself! One thing's for sure: it's a whole lot cheaper buying it on Amazon than it is buying it in a medical supply store!!!

Update on 1/26/17: Now that I've used this Vancic Kinesiology Tape for several weeks, I find that it's not as strong or as sticky as other brands that I've previously used. It tends to get stringy and unravel, and it pulls away from my skin on the edges instead of staying tight. I have to replace it after two days, instead of three or four. It's still a great price and it does work...but I'd probably stick with another brand next time. Thus, I've reduced the stars from five to four. Sorry, Vancic!!", "label": 1}

This basket fits perfectly onto the two little prongs on the front of the Vive where the back pack usefully goes. The basket does come with a bracket if you want to attach it some where else on the frame. I have considered rotating it to the inside of the neck (using the bracket) because when you roll up to the counter the basket hits about 4 inches before the wheels. I have to over extend a bit to reach the sink.
I keep my scooter parked next to me at all times and everything goes in the basket for transport to and from the kitchen, bathroom or where ever. Even taking water from the pantry to the fridge, is much easier when you can just load up the basket. I can fold my clothes at the dryer, stack them on top of the basket and balance them with one hand to wheel them into the bedroom. Life is so much easier with this basket.
I can drive if I have to so if I miss something on my delivery list, I do run to the store occasionally. It is most awkward stuffing things into the backpack (that came with the scooter) when you're rolling through the store and I originally ordered the basket specifically for that reason. I was pleasantly surprised at how helpful it is around the house.
I bent the two prongs on the car scooter getting it on the first time I used it so the basket is not very stable but still works fine just. I'm hesitant to adjust the prongs because I only have one basket and need to swap it between the two. It's more a concern for the prongs giving out than the basket. Yesterday I put a case of pure protein (protein drink) in the basket. That weighs at least 10 pounds. I tried standing it up but the basket was not very stable (because of the bent prong) so I laid it across the top and it rode securely through Sam's and out to the car. I did have to stabilize the drinks going across those bumps at the door and ruts in the asphalt but the weight did not stress the basket at all. The basket was well worth the minimal cost.", "label": 1}

Finding the best beard brush to meet your hairy needs is a matter of finding the right brush that will penetrate your beard without scratching the skin under it and absorbent enough not to lose all the oil before it hits said hairs. Loving the soft horsehair (though when you think too long on it - horsehair.) with a round wooden handle, nice in the palm but could be a bit bigger. This brush is designed to spread beard oils evenly throughout your beard supplying nutrients to your entire beard. I know he was dipping it into a lovely shea butter and rosemary concoction and said it had a nice 'drag' to it.
To apply the oil, simply douse out a few drops in the center of the brush and work it into your beardy drawing it circularly throughout. Simple enough, right?
The brush is equally easy to clean - just wash it with a mild soap and water and air dry. No reason though unless the oily build up is too much or you are changing product.
Before the purchase (which we got a nice discount on to leave an honest and forthright review of this product!) we'd read that it "fits well in the hand and helps to remove knots and smooth the beard. They also say that it distributes oil evenly throughout the beard."
Some people mention that this beard brush works better for shorter beards than for long dense beards, this is likely true - but our sons beard is just past his lower neck now - quite long.. but it is also very coarse and he wonders if this brush will hold up for the long haul.
If you have a thicker coarser beard, it is better to have a brush with firm bristles so it penetrates deep enough to spread oils or balms completely throughout your beard. All in all, I think an excellent purchase -and the travel tin is handy to keep the oil off your bathroom counter tops!", "label": 1}

I occasionally use a neti pot for allergies, and I came across a blog where a user used baby shampoo, neti salt packet, and this product in a neti pot and it knocked out his recurring sinus infections for good. So I decided to try that to see if it helped with allergies. I added a capsule to warm water, added 2 neti pot salt packets (salt and baking soda), and J&J baby shampoo and did nasal irrigation on each nostril. These capsules did not completely dissolve, so there were particulates visible in the water. It slightly burned when using but the worst of it was that I smelled garlic for probably A WEEK! I guess that's good if the premise works but since I didn't have an infection, just allergies, it wasn't alleviating anything but definitely was not enjoyable. Eventually it wore off, I kept using the neti with just the baby shampoo and salt.
In the past year, there have been various studies and several more ongoing trials, to test out baby shampoo and covid. Studies show that baby shampoo knocks out 99% of the covid germ in 2 minutes of neti pot use. So I feel comfortable with using that in my neti but I won't be using the garlic pill in the neti unless I lose sense of smell. Also, I told my Allergist dr that I did the garlic neti, she had never heard of anyone doing that but that doesn't mean a lot since she isn't a natural healing type doctor so I don't think she spends time on alternative remedies.
All that being said, I have continued to take these pills when I have a cold. I don't think they can hurt taking them orally and maybe they help. They taste strongly of garlic but I haven't noticed any garlic burps after taking. The price is not cheap but if I only take them when I'm sick, that's affordable.
I think the neti garlic is only for those with serious sinus infections, unless you start with only using maybe 1/8th of a capsule and work your way up.", "label": 1}

I have medium length hair. It is somewhat fine but I have a lot of it! It's naturally wavy and even curly in some places. If I cut my hair short I'd have ringlets all over my head! This is the perfect mix for frizzy hair. It is healthy but if I don't style it, it looks horribly damaged. If I straighten my hair 100% it takes me 2 hours with most flat irons. If I do a quick straight it's about an hour. If I blow dry my hair it is a mess!
This brush works wonderfully in my hair. I brush my hair before using it and then slowly brush it through sections of hair. I usually just do a quick style with it, spending no more than 15 minutes on it and it looks great. This takes out the frizz and straightens my hair most of the way leaving a little bit of volume. I don't have to spend a lot of time on it but I can make my hair look great! I use leave in products to protect my hair from the heat and follow up with a leave in serum afterwards on the ends.
This brush is easy to use. It literally just brushes through your hair but you have to be careful around your ears. I learned that the hard way! It has the controls on the side of the handle. You can change the temperature depending on your hair. I don't like the location of the controls because I hit the buttons a lot. Thankfully you have to hold down the power button to turn it off but I change the temperature a lot. It appears to be made quite well. The cord is a swivel cord so I don't have to do the untwist when it gets all twisted up.
I don't think this is good for all hair types and I highly recommend reading reviews from people with your hair type to know if it will work for you. If you have a hard time getting a brush through your hair when it is dry then I definitely don't recommend this for you.

Starting in September, I started having horrendous insomnia events, as well as horrible anxiety attacks right after my mom\u2019s passing.
I tried every sleep aid known to man, including pills, but I had so much trouble turning my brain off. Finally, after finding Cove, despite the ridiculously expensive price, I took the plunge, I had to try it. Not being able to sleep was pushing me towards depression.
The crazy thing is, THE FIRST NIGHT, after the first use of my Cove, I slept through the night. Now, I don\u2019t know if it was the lack of sleep from the other nights before using it catching up to me or a placebo effect. But I was shocked.

This is perfect! Very easy to use, large enough for my odd wide in the toe feet. I haven't had my husband see if his feet would fit length wise yet, but I think they would, this is fairly good sized.
I was especially pleased with the way it pours. When done you can pour the water easily out of the heel side as there is a bit of a notch in the toe side in the lip of the "bucket" to tip and pour everything out, then rinse and slosh with some soapy water and rinse out clean and let it air dry before the next use. After a few uses I will clean it a little more thoroughly with a rag or possibly even see how it fairs in the dishwasher. Anyway, when you pour the water out nothing dribbles down the sides or anything, the foot/bottom of the bucket stays dry unless you've gotten it wet or set it in a puddle yourself.
The only thing that I wish was different was the ridge down the middle of the bottom. I am guessing this is more so built in support to make the bucket more sturdy, but it forces you to keep your feet straight forward, whereas I would much rather be able to move them around more, but like I said, that is very minor. Oh, and there's also little arch support bumps along the middle, not a high enough arch support for my feet, but probably would be for most. Also, large bumps, kind of like pebbles on the bottom, I imagine this is to keep your feet elevated so that the soak will get to the bottoms of your feet.

Went to a few stores and tried a few different neck pillows and was unimpressed with most of them. I saw this one at Target for $14.99 and decided to check it out.
Brought it home and played around with different inflation pressures and found that fully inflated was best for my long neck. Tried it out sitting in the easy chair and it was comfortable on the back of my neck even fully inflated. I used a 21" duffle bag for my carry on and it fit into the end zipper pocket a-ok when it was deflated. It inflates/deflates easily, and it's not hard to get it to be at different inflation levels. Be sure to have the inflation nozzle side down when you use it as the poly fill is on the opposite side.
About the only annoying thing is that my neck did get hot enough to sweat wearing this after a couple hours, but I'm a 'sweater' anyways. It would be nice if the material was something that was more breathable though. The super long "do not remove" tag is a little annoying too, you probably want to remove it before taking it on a flight.
I plan on keeping it next to the easy chair for naps from now on and will update my review if need be.

Update: Never really used it for the easy chair so decided to store it in my carry-on bag so that I wouldn't lose it. On a recent trip had an issue where the internal valve wouldn't stay closed when first inflating it, it's supposed hold the air in as you are inflating it. So I had to inflate it and then quickly put the cover on it. However after using it on the first leg of the flight it started working correctly again after that. I'm going to try storing it partially inflated and see if that helps, or maybe you just need to moisten the area where the valve seals after its been stored.

Pros: Thin so they don't make your shoes fit any tighter.

Although they had not moved, by the end of a 12 hour day of being on my feet on a concrete floor they were feeling like they were cutting into my toes (they hadn't moved and there were no marks on my toes so there wasn't really an issue, it was just I was feeling something in my shoes and after 12 hours, it was really starting to bother me). It kept that part of my foot more moist where my socks had pulled moisture away from other areas, not sure if that will be a problem long term or if just something to stay aware of so I can keep a closer watch on for skin care. Taking my shoes and socks off as soon as I get home and letting my feet "breath" is probably a good habit to get into anyway.
I did receive these at a discount for leaving an honest review and I would not hesitate to recommend them, in fact I have already recommended them to a friend who is having some diabetic foot problems in the area that these offering padding to and I think they will be a great option to improve her foot care.
My only suggestions is that you start out wearing them for shorter amounts of time to get use to them and to make sure you keep them flat when putting your socks on over top of them.", "label": 1}

I had some concerns after reading other reviews about putting this together and about the tabletop springing up sending my laptop and coffee flying every time I inadvertently bumped the underside with a misplaced hand or knee.I watched a Youtube video first, and read the instructions carefully. The table was well packed, the screws etc were packed in separate plastic container and clearly numbered, and the instructions seemed pretty straightforward. I'm guessing the company has made improvements here since some earlier reviews. I had an old all purpose Phillips head and some pliers and they did the job handily, Total time to put together was about 10 minutes, not counting watching the video and reading the instructions. I have mobility problems and am not very handy and it was definitely on the easy side for me.
Once together it was solid, large enough to hold my laptop and an extra ASUS 20 inch screen along with coffee, snack, pen papers, phone and 2 remotes. It fits easily over the chair when the foot rest is extended and rolls easily out and back as I get up and down. One thing I DIDN'T do.... Once assembled, I noticed the base table height, as is, was right where wanted it if not and inch or two higher. I couldn't imagine any reason I would want or need to raise it so I never removed the black screw that releases the mechanism that does so. This leaves me with a very steady laptop and coffee safe surface that I don't have to worry will rise suddenly if I brush the underside with my knee. I know some have complained of this and I can't comment as to how sensitive, or how much of a problem it might be. I admit to being a little curious but as it is with the screw left in, the table height is solid, safe and perfect for me. This table does everything I hoped it would, is much better made than what I would have expected for the price, and provides great value for the money. I am quite pleased with this purchase.", "label": 1}

The tablets are small and easy to swallow with a slightly acidic ascorbic acid taste. These are not for chewing. The label does not say where the ascorbic acid and rose hips are sourced from but does say \"Blended and Packaged & Lab Tested in the USA\". That gives me a secure feeling that this is a product to trust. I am willing to pay a premium for that.
I won't risk taking foreign sourced drugs generally as I have read too many horror stories of adulteration with awful stuff. The ingredients do appear to be sourced from outside the USA however. That would drop a half star but since there are no halves, I'll default to 5.
This bottle comes double sealed and the tablet size is seen in my pictures. I liked the convenience of the flip top to open cap on this bottle.
I do note that these have a recommended Serving Size of 1 a day for a 500mg dosing. That means the bottle will go almost a year at 1 a day; even with me taking 2 a day there are 150 days worth at a great value. Supplements such as this are best taken with a meal I believe as that improves absorption.
As always check with your Healthcare Provider whenever beginning a new Supplement/Nutraceutical/or OTC Drug as there are many possible drug interactions that need to be considered.
I Recommend these Carlyle Store Vitamin C 500mg | 300 Tablets | Ascorbic Acid with Rose Hips | Vegetarian, Non-GMO, and Gluten Free Supplement | High Potency Formula | by Carlyle. These will be a great daily Vitamin C Supplement for me and are a great value.

This company has been attentive in making sure we received additional infirmational charts and such through email and has checked on us a few times to make sure we were satisfied and understood what we are about in using this product. I bought two kits. My husband and I are sharing and only check ketones and weight on Monday and Friday. This is to make sure we stayed on track during the week and didn't get silly over a weekend. The ketogenic way of eating and living isn't for everyone. But I found over 30 years ago that I am at my healthiest and best when I stay within these parameters and my husband, who was a big time bread eater and fairly new to this way of eating has seen a decrease in high blood pressure to within normal ranges, we're watching his cholesterol levels starting to make a turn in the right direction and in general he just feels better and stronger. As you add more foods into your diet these monitoring strips help to ensure that you are aware of how your body is or isn't dealing with the changes. We ate some Honey Baked Ham and while we still saw ourselves in Ketosis when we checked, we saw clearly that the strips registered the small amount of sugar we had consumed. I have added somethings to my own diet that I have pretty much never eaten much of in the past. So these strips are helping me see how my body acts towards them.

I run a brush through my hair to rid it of snarls and loose hairs (if you don't, the hair builds up on the RoseMyst brush and starts to smell as the loose hairs begin to singe). Then I brush my hair just like normal and in less than 3 minutes, I have straight hair. Sometimes I spray a little light setting mist on my hair to keep it from absorbing moisture when I go out. But that's about it! It does have a lock feature to keep you from accidentally changing settings while you work with it but I have never had any problem.

I wanted to take my Fitbit experience to the next level and start tracking my weight daily (plus having the body fat %). I've read the reviews about how inaccurate the body fat percentage numbers can be and how much of a nightmare the Aria setup is but I thought, I'll roll with the punches and give it a shot. Bottom line: all of the other reviews outlining the shortcomings of the Aria are true.
My biggest gripe is the connectivity. I used the mobile setup method. Through the Fitbit app, there's a link to connect your Aria to your account and the process itself isn't that bad but my Aria would never stay connected to my network. It wasn't that the Aria forgot my SSID, because when I went through the reset procedure, my network was still saved, it just stopped communicating and wouldn't recognize me anymore (just as "guest"). I tried putting the Aria closer to the router but that never resolved the issue, it would just stop working.
It is actually quite astounding that the Aria has been out so long, yet Fitbit hasn't responded to the connectivity criticisms. Utilizing Bluetooth would rectify all of the Aria's connectivity problems, but they stick with Wifi (band b, no less which is antiquated). I shouldn't have to worry about these things when using a scale, especially at this price point.
Second, the body fat percentage numbers are really, really bad. I'm talking +/- 5% or even more, so it's hard to even get a gauge at your average, making it a useless feature. Yes, it is known that BIA is objectively inaccurate but it's really all over the board with the Aria and negates any selling value that it is included in the scale.
While I had really high hopes the Aria would work for me, it followed through on delivering the common criticisms that everyone else has outlined. My advice: buy a standard, low-cost digital scale and manually enter. You'll save time, money and stress.", "label": 0}

I've tried many others and none work as well as these. Obviously, no pills are going to work on their own, you still have to be willing to diet and exercise. I use the term \"diet\" loosely, what you're actually doing is making a lifestyle change. If you choose to use these for a short term diet, yes, they will work, but you'll gain the weight back as soon as you stop. It needs to be a lifelong decision in order for it to be a permanent solution. With that in mind, I can recommend these pills 100%. I've been on my weightloss journey for 2 years now and have lost a total of 103 pounds. I still have about 25 pounds to lose to reach my goal weight and am very confident I can finish that within the next few months with the help of these pills. The bottle suggests taking 2 per day, I recommend taking 3 per day, one right BEFORE each meal. Not after. That way before you even start eating, your body is already burning those calories off. Immediately I noticed an increase in energy and decrease in appetite, and the very first week of my journey, I lost 15 pounds. From that point on I averaged 4-6 pounds per week for the entire first year. The 2nd year I was dealing with back injuries and basically used the pills to keep from gaining weight until I got back on my feet, which was also very effective, I just needed to adjust my calories to make up for not working out. Now I'm back to working out, just this past week lost 7 pounds! To sum up, these pills are great in tandem with diet and exercise to effectively lose a lot of weight quickly, and after that, can be used to keep the weight off as well. I highly recommend them to anyone who is serious about making this lifestyle change for themselves, just be aware that eating healthy is the most important thing on any weightloss journey, and these pills (or any) will not work if you don't.
One last note, I received a free bottle of these pills direct from the manufacturer for being a loyal customer and was very happy to write this review in order to spread the word on this amazing product.

Right off the bat, I really prefer a silicone lubricants over water-based, but if you're used to water-based lubricants they feel and perform different, so this might take some getting used to for you. One of the main reasons I prefer silicone over water-based is longevity, and this particular lubricant has plenty of that. It lasts for a long time without feeling sticky or tacky like some brands do. It has a really nice "slip" to it, and doesn't have any unpleasant greasy after feel. Another thing I like is that it's not fragranced and it doesn't have any of the gimmicky warming ingredients in it. I prefer to keep things simple and unscented when it comes to especially delicate skin and this lube, with only four ingredients, does just that.
Being ever curious, I looked up the ingredients to see what they're used for. Dimethicone is what provides most of the slip and glide, and is sometimes used to treat dry, chapped, or irritated skin. Cyclopentasiloxane also adds slip, and is widely used in skin and hair care products. Same with dimethiconol, it has the same uses as the previous two ingredients. Last on the ingredients list is Phenyl Trimethicone, which is also used in lots of hair and skin care as a lubricant. That's it, no flavorings or fragrances that might cause irritation, just four very commonly used silicones that have proven track records in health and beauty products.
I'm really happy with the lubricant itself, and the price is quite reasonable for an 8 ounce bottle. If you aren't familiar with silicone lubes, a little goes a long way so the bottle lasts quite a while. I did receive a discount in exchange for my opinion, but that in no way influenced this review.

I have WIDE/BIG FEET. I wear a size 12 in women's. I come from Viking/Germanic stock, so what do you expect? I have foot problems. I just got over a year-long bout of bilateral plantar fasciitis, have super flat feet (they cannot get any flatter, trust me) and hyper-pronation (turning in) of my ankles...aka wonky ankles...and I live in constant discomfort. Add to that the fact I stupidly used my treadmill without wearing shoes about 12 years ago and crushed my right foot along side the treadmill track, causing permanent discomfort. The older I get, the more painful my feet become and the more difficult it is for me to walk. A recent MRI shows degenerative changes and the beginning of arthritis in my poor feet.

WHAT IS THIS LIKE?
This stuff is thickened in a bottle which has a twist of raspberry flavoring added. It is not sweet, just has a raspberry essence. There is no sweetener, and the dropper has measuring lines on it.
HOW TO USE THIS?
I was so run down when I got thinking about it, I remembered- you can easily get dehydrated when having \"the runs\". I immediately got out this electrolyte mixture and put a small amount of this (like.25) into a very large glass of water. I drank it down as gradually as I could and then through the day I added more water.
By the end of the morning, I was feeling TONS better. This really did help me rehydrate and feel better after being wiped out.
THE BOTTOM LINE
This is not hard to take, has just a bit of raspberry flavor, but does help me to rehydrate when I really need help. I experienced relief greatly after having a bout with \"the runs\" I plan to use a little bit now and then to continue to rehydrate this winter.
MY RATING
FOUR STARS. I love that this helped me through a rough patch when I needed hydration. I am torn between five and four stars for review.

Never burnt out a motor but the plastic water hoses can break, the weak point. The old waterpic had a variable pressure dial on the motor housing, which I liked better but the adjustable pressure on the wand, itself, works well enough if you don't accidentally slide it to the high pressure mode. That kind of pressure can really hurt the gums if they are sensitive. Make sure to watch that setting. Does the product work? Yes. Very well at getting food particles out and toughening the gums, to keep them healthy and for good circulation. These devices have been around for a long time and are proven. For instance, I had issues with gingivitis about 20 years ago and my dentist warned me he would have to do a \"root planing\" which, he told me, is not comfortable. He advised me to get a good electric toothbrush. Either the Oral B, or Sonic Care. Either are good products and work well effectively cleaning at the gum line. It helped bring the distances down to 2 and 3 mm from 5 and 6. The higher the number, the more receding the gum line. This opens the door for disease and infection. I use it once per day.
If you're new to the waterpic, watch for the tenderness and gum bleeding. Do not use it on the hard pressure setting at first but, rather build up to that setting. You don't have to blow apart your gums to get a good cleaning and I would disagree with some dentists who recommend using the highest pressure setting over the course of use. The book says you don't need it but a good firm setting is recommended. The weak link is the water hose. The plastic can get brittle and break, as mentioned, as it did with mine but I was able to find a replacement hose and wand assembly. I like the 70, but if you want to go fancier, the 90 has some nice features for the extra cost. These products are tried and true and I give it a strong plus and recommendation for that reason as well as their effective cleaning. For dental health, it's a must.

You may remember Sears used to sell these units for $89-$99, until they went to a new design and then stopped carrying them altogether. Sears also sold a cleaner for these units, which they may still do (although the previous commenter's suggestion about using 9% vinegar plus some table salt sounds like a fine one).
You do not actually have to clean these after every use. In fact, unless you get an unwieldy amount of scale build-up, you don't have to clean them at all; merely rinse the inside before adding more water to start another cycle. If you don't rinse, that can affect the taste of the finished product (we never bothered with the charcoal \"after filter\"; just threw it away and never replaced it). And if you don't clean, that supposedly will make it a little less efficient, although I've not really found that to be the case.
If I remember correctly--and if this uses the same components--these units take 5-6 hours to distill a full gallon. What makes this design superior (there are several other brands with this same design) is its ease of cleaning. The kind of distiller which uses an internal float mechanism is a bear to clean and I don't recommend them for that reason.
The weak point for this type of distiller, with the thermal cut-off, is the cut-off itself. That will die after a number of cycles and then you will end up throwing the whole unit out. I've been distilling water at home for 25 years and got so tired of this with the Sears units that I figured out where the cut-off was, and how to replace it, and never had to buy a new one after that.

Q: Does this have all of the essential amino acids and in the proper ratio?
A: This has EIGHT essential amino acids (arguably the most important for muscle retention) and according to TrueNutrition's website it is the "perfect ratio".
Q: It says 10g per serving, do I need to buy a gram scale to use this properly?
A: Nope! It comes with a scoop (may take some digging to find it) BUT the scoop should not be measured to the top. There is a small but very visible ring a few mm below the top that you should aim to a fill for. If you fill to the top you will be close to 13.5g (I did buy a scale when I purchased this and have now verified the weight)
Q: Does it really taste that bad and how do I hide the taste?
A: It really does taste... not good. The best way to hide the taste is with quality not overly-sweetened lemonade preferably without artificial sweeteners or HFCS. Do NOT take this with any drink containing fats or protein (see next question for details).
Q: When is the best time to take this?
A: This part is very important. You should take this no sooner than 4 hours after a meal with protein or fats. You should also not eat any fats or proteins for up to 30 minutes after consuming these EAAs. Doing this ensures proper absorption by the digestive system. I take mine in the morning before working out, again right before lunch, and again before dinner.
Q: Have you noticed any differences while taking this?
A: I've only been taking for a week or so and I immediately noticed I had significantly more energy and was able to push more during my workout. I've also noticed my hunger being decreased quite a bit. Before taking these, if I didn't eat something within about a 4 hour period I would start to get shakey and jittery like I had low blood sugar (I've been tested and not in the hypoglycemic range).

Bee pollen is absolutely packed with nutrients and enzymes that help you digest your food better. For people with certain barriers to weight loss, the hormonal balancing that regular consumption of bee pollen provides can help you lose stubborn weight. I urge you to do your research and see if it interests you, but if it does (or if you already know about this amazing superfood) then Kangaroo is a great place to start. First they're certified organic. Since that involve proving that the land that every plant the bees land on was grown on has been free of pesticides/insecticides and all other toxic chemicals for a certain period of time, this is a rigorous process to go through, and few sources bother. Here are some other good things about it.
Pros:
-This pollen is from Greece, not China (where most of it comes from). That means much less of a chance of industrial pollution on the plants the bees collect the pollen from.
-This pollen is fresh! You can tell, because the granules are soft and slightly moist, and dissolve on the tongue. If your bee pollen is crunchy, it's been either deliberately dried or it old and stale from lost moisture.
-Make sure to keep it refrigerated after opening! It's very important, as this is a raw food, and the warning is very small on the bottle.
Cons:
-It's very expensive for bee pollen. HOWEVER, it is a very high quality.
Overall, if you're willing to pay more for quality, I highly recommend this bee pollen.

It still requires some water, and still requires toweling off. It basically replaces the need to have a separate low suds cleansing formula and wash rag or dry cloth. THIS IS Rinse free, but you do need water to start. Just add a little water to the sheet of fabric, massage for light lather, wipe down body, then towel off. No need to rinse. Keep in mind that the more water that is used, the more the mess from run off.
The sheet of fabric is like a soft piece of felt. Size of a large washcloth (9.5\" x 9.5\"). Don't need much water! It definitely lathers. It isn't a sudsy soap, but that doesn't mean there isn't enough. Now, if you are expecting loads of foamy bubbles, this does not provide that. It creates a light watery lather. This in no way determines effectiveness of cleaning. Mega lather does not equate better cleaning. I learned that 30 some years ago in home economics that excess lather is a marketing technique (usually through copious amounts of sulphates) to give people impression that more lather/bubbles/suds = better clean (shampoo, body soaps, toothpaste). But for those that dig the suds, I can get some light bubbles out of it. That being said, it is adequate enough. Not super refreshing, but I do feel clean. Tried it in hair with fair results.
This could be cut in half and it would still have plenty of lather. Depending on your situation, this could be premoistened and placed in a ziplock baggie.
No discernable aroma. Not sticky, at least not me. I wonder if amount of water used, or thoroughness of toweling off impacts that or not.
Personally, I prefer wet body wipes. They never need water nor toweling off. I like those for on the go use (workday, after work out, bird bath at the sink). I would be more apt to use these in a bed bound situation, or no hot water situation, maybe camping.

The function of the handle changes depending on whether a toothbrush head is attached or an irrigator is attached. For toothbrush mode, you have Low and High settings. For irrigation, you have a a few different settings (Normal, Soft, Pulse and DIY).
The handle is pretty chunky, but no more so than a low end Sonicare toothbrush.

** Toothbrush mode works fine
** Irrigator tools are small and can be packed for travel

** For irrigator mode, you need to run the rubber hose to a glass of water. The hose isn\u2019t that long, and the first time I tried it, I accidentally pulled the glass to the ground.

On the whole, I\u2019d say that if having a portable version of an irrigator is what you\u2019re looking for, this may fill the bill. But if the brush is your main interest, look elsewhere\u2014the handle is chunkier than I\u2019d like, and the brush heads are non-standard.", "label": 1}

I know when I worked as a nurse, I would see Zinc oxide as an ingredient in creams/ointments and unna boot wraps. There is Zinc oxide in many more products than most realize.
In researching the benefits and uses of Zinc oxide powder, I learned Zinc oxide can be used on energy saving and as a heat protectant on windows! Hello lower electric bill in the summer! Applying a coating to Windows helps keep heat inside rooms, let's visible light in and reflects infrared radiation.
Can be used as a skin astringent. Zinc can act as a skin drying agent, help relieve inflammation/irritation/reduce rashes. Likewise, it can be used for dandruff, dry/itchy scalp (intact is in many commercial brands of anti-dandrruff products). Likewise, Zinc is in many kinds of make up also. It just has a wide array of uses!

I purchased this 2 pack of shower poufs to finally start to use up some of my supply of body wash, and to forgo purchasing the bars of soap I usually use. So far, I've been super pleased with these poufs. First, they are large, dense, and hardy feeling poufs. I've purchased poufs from my local drugstores in the past, but they always feel kind of weak and not really "full". What is nice about the size and density of these is that are good at creating a ton of soap foam with just a small amount of body wash (I usually use just about a tablespoon per shower), and their larger size makes them great at covering a lot of body surface area. Second, these poufs are make of a good meshy material that is isn't too harsh on the skin, yet is able to effectively exfoliate my skin, so I always feel clean after every shower. In fact, these poufs work so well, I've noticed an improvement in the skin on my arms and legs, which normally can become quite ashy and rough due to the colder winter weather. I can attribute this improvement to the great exfoliation I am getting from using these poufs in the shower every day. Overall, I feel these poufs are really well made, and will last me a long time without falling apart.

It is inferior to the original [[ASIN:B003KLYVNI Rayovac PS3 Universal Smart Battery Charger]] in many ways:
- The PS20PL is a timer-based dumb charger. It blindly charges all batteries for 8.5 hours and shuts off, regardless of their capacity or status. It is up to you to remove your batteries after certain number of hours to avoid over-charging. The PS3 is a smart charger that monitors each cell during charging, and stops automatically when each cell is full.
- The PS20PL forces you to charge in pairs (either 2 or 4 cells). The old PS3 charges batteries individually, which is the only way to ensure each battery is charged to its correct capacity.
- The PS20PL can only handle NiMH and NiCd batteries. The old PS3 can handle NiMH, NiCd, and rechargeable alkaline manganese (RAM) batteries.
On the other hand, both PL20PL and PS3 suffer from the following deficiencies:
- The maximum battery capacity is limited to 3000mAh. That means they cannot fully recharge higher capacity C and D cells, such as the [[ASIN:B0041TF5KQ Tenergy Centura C Size Low Self-Discharge Rechargeable Batteries]] (4000mAh).
- The AC transformer inside is bulky, heavy, and limited to 110V supply only.
Instead of this PS20PL, you should get a smarter universal charger that can handle larger capacity batteries. For example, consider the [[ASIN:B006OSQALU Tenergy Advanced Universal Charger TN190]]. The TN190 added a REFRESH function and a LCD battery status display. It is able to work from 100-240V AC, and can handle higher-capacity batteries up to 10,000mAh.", "label": 0}

These are pretty lofty claims for the plushy tube of fleece I received filled with flimsy, ill-distributed stuffing. I tried my hardest to adjust to this pillow, using it for a week straight and just hated it.
1. There's not enough loft or volume in the stuffing to use this as a neck pillow or lumbar support. lightly pressing on the wrap-a-nap and it goes completely flat. The modeled photos in the listing should have been red alert for me.
2. They claim noise-reducing effects, but even after tightening this as far as it could go on my head I could still hear even the near-silent hum of my bedroom fan. There was no difference in even ambient noise whether or not I was wearing it.
3. It blocks light...sort of. If you're comfortable with having a pillow covering your eyes and nose, this is right up your alley. However, I enjoy breathing properly when I sleep so this was a no-go for me. Since it's just a big tube of fleece sewn shut, there's no curvature to it that conforms to your cheekbones. To get the most light-blocking out of it I had to secure it as tightly as possible over my eyes/nose, which put uncomfortable pressure on my eyes.
The one claim they made that I feel was factual was the softness of the material. I have a robe with the same color/texture and it is nice and plushy.
I would recommend this as a better than nothing sleep mask if the price were lower, but the design is just awful.

Simply turn it on, place your finger inside, and wait for your reading. In less than 30 seconds you have your information. The numbers are big enough that I can see them without my glasses.
Another feature is it has 9 levels of brightness. This will be useful if you\u2019re not in good lighting or for some reason in the dark. I guess if you\u2019re running or cycling and need to check your heart rate, the backlight would be necessary.
Now I told you what the company made it for and the only thing they RECOMMEND use with it. But, I think you could use it for other things.
If you\u2019re a smoker or have COPD, it would be a great way to get your SpO2 reading without having to go to the Dr. office. This would be an estimate but would allow you to know when you need to seek medical services.
Also, I have a friend who has a heart condition. Sometimes her heart rate seems like it is beating out of her chest. With this we can get a rate of how fast her heart is beating. If it is too high, call the heart Dr.
I could give several more examples, but they wouldn\u2019t be for what Accurate suggested usage. But I think you get the picture on what else it MIGHT be able to do.
I have already used the Oximeter several times since I have received it. My son, the CNA, came over the other day and for fun, he took my pulse rate. We then used the Oximeter and they were the same. (Cool Eh?)

And it seems to serve it's purpose in keeping me slightly better hydrated than water alone so I will finish the bottle I bought, but definitely not as good as the Liquid IV. Therefore, I won't be purchasing this product again.
I have 2 main issues, the first is with the product, the second is with the seller/company.
1 - it does not dissolve fully, even after hours of sitting and shaking, there is still visible powder floating in the water. I used less powder than was recommended for a full size bottle of water, and still, not all of the powder would dissolve in to the water. I shook the bottle as vigorously as I dared without hurting myself.
2 - When I received my order, it came with this little card inside saying \"send us an email with your review for a free gift\". I followed the instructions, to a t, thinking maybe the solubility issue was isolated to this one flavor and it would be worth trying other flavors. Well, I never got my free gift.

It irks me when companies add additional conditions on an offer. So be advised, that \"free gift\" offer you get with your purchase, will not be as simple as the card makes it sound.

Then I checked with my pharmacist who said that streptococcus salivarius as a probiotic is safe and does not cause side effects. It might cause a little bit of gas for a couple of days until your body gets used to it but that will go away.

When it's finished dissolving I run my tongue all over the inside of my mouth (under my upper lip, the sides of my cheeks and behind my bottom lip to distribute the dissolved pill throughout my mouth.

It is imperative to floss every night also before going to bed. This gets rid of any bacteria that has accumulated between the teeth. Everything you do will help whether you use this product or another such as brushing your teeth after eating and brushing the uvula (the skin that hangs down in the back of your mouth).
As for the effectiveness of this pill I say it works. Some reviews indicate that it does not work and to save your money. First of all it's not that expensive to at least try it and secondly it may not work for them. Every person's body is different. For me it was a life changer.

I saw this item and thought it might be a convenient way to apply heat to our head/eyes when we have headaches.
What\u2019s in the Box:
Inside the box you get the eye mask, a USB charging cable (about 6 feet in length), a sheet of instructions and a set of foam earplugs.
Quality:
I was very impressed with the quality of this eye mask. The mask itself is a very soft fabric, and sewn between the sheets of fabric is a very soft foam that contours the shape around your eyes and the bridge of your nose, similar to the way a ski mask or swim mask does.
The stitching on the material also looks well done, and the elastic strap seems sturdy. The strap also has Velcro on it so that you can adjust the size of the mask depending on the size of your head.
The included USB cable is about 6 feet long and also has a small area on it that allows you to turn the heat off and on.
Ease of Use:
Using the heated eye mask is super simple. You first need to connect the mask to the USB cable. This is done by simply connecting it via the magnetic clip. After that you will need to plug the USB cable into a USB outlet, I used the white USB brick that came with my iPhone
The mask has 3 heat settings, low, medium and high. To choose one of these heat levels, simply click the power button until the little light turns the corresponding color (Blue is for low, Green is for medium and Red is for high). After that, just slide the mask over your head and eyes and sit back and relax.
Final Verdict:
This is a great heated eye mask, the fabric is very soft and overall it seems to be well made. I don\u2019t sleep with eye masks, so I won\u2019t sleep with this one on, but as I mentioned earlier, I would definitely wear this to try to alleviate some stress and headache or sinus pain. I do wish it got a little bit hotter than it does, but since this is technically a sleep mask, the manufacturer probably did want people to fall asleep with a very hot mask on their faces.

So I got in with him. It was easy to manoeuvre without disturbing him other than he had to move over a little. This hammock is very roomy and comfy. Even with a bony boy in it with me.
I was planning on taking it right back down so I could pack it for our trip but my son begged me to leave it up so he could relax in it every day. So I left it up. I have to admit I will be sneaking out to relax in it myself.
My husband tried it out when he got home, and we all piled in after him.
There was enough room for all of us even though we kept pretending we had to squish each other.
In the bag, first, the hammock bag is part of the hammock so you won't be losing this bag. And the hammock returns to the bag after use easily with the two tree straps. It is small and light enough to take backpacking easily. It has two big carabiners attached to the hammock. Then the two tree straps seem very sturdy.

I recently saw a video on Facebook of someone getting their hair straightened with a brush straightener. The results were incredible, and they were FAST! I finally gave in and decided to try it.
The Gisala Brush Straightener comes with a storage bag, a brush to clean it with, and a heat glove. The instructions for this styling tool are super clear and easy to understand and read. I was able to start straightening my hair within 5 minutes of receiving the product! I was SHOCKED at the results. It was absolutely insane how quickly the Gisala Brush Straightener de-kinked my hair! Seriously, it took me 5 minutes to completely straighten my hair. It was as simple as pulling the brush through my hair. I had faster results, with less product, than I have ever had with my Chi. The Gisala didn't pull my hair, and it didn't burn me. It was perfect.
I really love the design of this product. It feels sturdy, but it isn't heavy. I see a lot of people complaining about straightening brushes because of the weight. It weighs about the same as my Chi straightener. I also love that the cord swivels. Sometimes it takes me 5 minutes to get all the knots out of a styling tool's cord before I can do anything with it. I also love that it doesn't pull my hair. I was concerned about that because so many people complain about little rubber/silicone grips pulling your hair. This brush did not pull my hair at all.
My results were so incredible that I posted a picture on Facebook, and I have already had friends order the Gisala Starightening Brush! He's it is that fantastic! I don't think I have EVER publicly endorsed a product on social media, but I stand 100% behind this one. It is awesome!", "label": 1}

They have holes in the bottom and are made of a very bouncy foam material so they are a lot more giving than some that I own. They feel high quality and I'm sure they will last. You can tell the rubbing that is often times an issue with other insoles will not be with these. If I had to make one suggestion it might be that they are a tad narrow in the heel, however, depending on your shoe this may be absolutely perfect for you. I have wider feet and they still work fine because of the give and the softness of the actual material that allows them to expand to my foot width. One of my favorite things about these is that you don't need to cut them because they are only half the length of a regular insole so you can simply shove them into any shoe, step into it and you're ready to rock 'n' roll.

To summarize, a probiotic, L. bulgaricus GLB44, has been isolated from the snowdrop flower in Bulgaria. It was originally planned for use in unpasteurized vegetable juice to eliminate pathogenic bacteria. When it was found to be very active versus pathogenic bacteria while preserving normal bacteria flora (good bacteria), it was decided to manufacture it as a probiotic. In vitro studies done by Professor Onderdonk, director of clinical microbiology at Harvard's Brigham and Womens Hospital, are very supportive. One clinical trial in 20 subjects with H. pylori indicated elimination of H pylori without using any antibiotics in 18 of the 20 subjects. To date, I have not found a publication on this study. Anecdotal evidence indicates that it can be used by travelers (in Africa) to prevent adverse gi symptoms.
The probiotic is grown in a vegetable matrix and has no additives.It is sugar free, gluten free, yeast free, and allergen free. It is not a gas forming bacteria, so should cause no bloating or gas formation. It is reportable shelf stable and needs no refrigeration.
It has been contrasted with multi-strain probiotics. As there is only one strain in ProViotic, there is no competition between administered bacteria and a lower daily dosage of 5 billion per dose is recommended. The bacteria are reported to be much larger than those in other probiotics and more small peptide bacteriocins which are responsible for killing pathogenic bacteria, therefore, are produced.
While there is a need for clinical studies, ProViotic appears potentially to be a great product and I would be interested in trying some. It would be valuable to have studies in subjects with IBS as well as in SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth). I'd be interested to find out more details, such as the viability of the bacteria over time without refrigeration, the long term effect on stool flora, and plans for clinical research.", "label": 1}

A lot of reviewers are complaining about that, like they didn't know. I would suggest reading the description. It is stated in the description that this is a push-up and you should go into this understanding that.
That being said, this is a good product (thick plastic, well sized, and attractive), but it's not the worlds best push-up tube. When this comes out of the package, the plunger you push is very firm and sticky. I thought that this would be a good indicator that these would have some grip to them so that your product doesn't just fly out the top when you push the plunger. A common problem with push-ups. I was able to fill them with no leaking, and they held a really nice quantity of product. One ounce seems just perfect for about a month of body butter or natural deodorant. Imagine a tube a little bit larger than a quarter, and about the length of your pointer finger. This looked like a five star product, until I needed to push the tube up.
The oils in the body butter lubed the interior portion of the tube and the push-up piece slips right out of the tube. There's no lip to keep the gasket in and the product from falling out. As other reviewers have stated, you need to use your finger, on the product, to push this back down into the bottom of the tube again. You could probably get tricky with application and push it back while you're applying by creating resistance against your finger and pushing on the product at the same time.
I often times make mosquito repellent body butter bars or Shea butter bars for my son who has eczema. I don't think he could manage application without this becoming a huge problem. A twist-up tube would certainly be more appropriate in that situation as I don't think that a child could use this cautiously.
Bottom line, if you can use this cautiously and be careful with applying, you can avoid the product flying out of the tube and enjoy this attractive, and perfectly sized tube. If not, look into a twist tube.", "label": 1}

I had a dry itchy scalp over the last 5 months.
In May, it started becoming flaky, burning, and extremely irritated scalp. It was super uncomfortable at that point. Something I\u2019ve never experienced (the last time my psoriasis was triggered was 6-7 years ago after skiing for a week on my chest and it went away fairly fast once back home with meds) so I was becoming really worried.
Nothing was helping not even things my derm. gave me which included topical steroids and fluocinonide for the itching and even oral antibiotics at one point..... nothing worked so I started researching possible holistic long-term solutions.
I cut out all possible triggers from my diet and that helped greatly. Then I saw this YouTube video where the girl mentioned psoriasis being related to gut issues and to try l-glutamine.... I bought it right away.
This stuff is well worth it.
I take it every day along with multivitamins, probiotics (pill form and kimchi), D2 & K3, and my scalp psoriasis is making a fast turn around.
(I use liquid black seed oil, and shampoo with an elixir of Sebex/TGel intense itching XStrength and 2% Ketoconozale shampoo all together and let sit on my scalp for 5 minutes once per week)
There is no flaking, my scalp is clear and not burning or itching!
At first, l-glutamine did make me break out all over my face. Like huge painful cystic acne but I assumed that meant my body was detoxing and I believe it was because I no longer am breaking out.
I take 5mg in about 16oz of cold water and it doesn\u2019t taste bad.
I was curious to see how much the relief of my scalp itchiness/psoriasis was attributed to this powder so for the sake of science, I stopped taking it for one week and I did notice a slight itch coming on so I am confident that this really is a contributing factor to keeping my psoriasis under control.
Also, I ordered it at 7am and it arrived at 10am the same day.
I will be buying this again....

I am very happy with the extra roundness and the bottom and in between the cleavage area. This will take time but the price is worth it. I have tried bountiful breast and breast success.

The t-case that came with the pump was mediocre The clip didn't reliably hold it on my web belts whether used in the vertical or horizontal orientation. When I tried sleeping with the pump at night in a t-shirt pocket the clip dug into me. The t:case is very strong, hard and unyielding. It's my second choice.
Note: All these followig cases, whether branded in the molds or not, are manufacted by other companies, mostly in China, and sold under many names. The US sellers are distributors and dealers.
The next case I tried was this one. It had no clip. It had to be removed to change cartridges; the opening for the cartridge was too small and there was no slot to insert the removal card into to pry the cartridge loose. It's not difficult to do but that reoeated stress 122x/year imo will impact its life.
This case is okay if you are willing to carry it in a pocket, remove it every 2-3 days for a cartridge change and attach a suitable clip to it. That was too many compomises for me. So this is my fourth choice.
I contacted the seller who told me it was an older model. I couldn't exchange it for the new model; they didnt list in the color I wanted in their Amazon listing. So I returned it. The newer model is currently sold by another seller as item B09KCRNCY3. This one doesn't protect the pump a well as the t:case does without its beltclip. It's better than the t:case bare, but since a clip costs $5-8 and installation, not as good as the OEM. So it's my third choice.
My current first choice is almost the same as my third choice but covers much more of the face. It's being sold now as B09L2CY5Q3. I attached a clip to it and have worn it for 4 months, day and night. It is simillar to the Medmax case B09PN979K4, but lighter, without the corner bumpers.
If the case I'm using doesn't outlive my pump, and i can't get the same one again, the Medmax would be my next chiose.", "label": 0}

I was so busy watching the show once I dropped one into the tub that I totally forgot to take pictures until it was more than halfway gone, but it was still spinning and fizzing away down to the very last bit. The bath bomb floats on the surface, and if I push it under the water, it bounces right back up, so the entire spinning, colorful effect stays readily visible. The whole show lasted for about 15 minutes. The colors are vibrant. The blue cap dissolves first, and the purple and orange dissolve pretty evenly after that. The fragrance is faintly floral. It leaves my bath water a beautiful reddish orange. The oils and salts in the bath bomb feel very soothing to my skin and leave it feeling clean, soft, and well moisturized when my bath is done. The bath bomb did not leave a residue or a stain of any kind. These bath bombs spin very energetically, and I would not recommend putting one in something as small as a foot bath. Instead, use them in a regular bath tub per the instructions. The only reason I gave these delightful bath bombs a 4 star instead of a 5 star is because the box, instead of being shrink wrapped like most bath bomb sets, is instead held together with a huge piece of packaging tape that goes all the way around the box. When the tape is removed, it leaves a wide stretch of stickiness that prevents the box from being set on anything after that or it will stick to it and spread the adhesive to whatever the box is placed on. This also prevents the box from being used as a gift box, although the bombs themselves make great gifts. Fortunately, this is a problem that can be easily remedied by the seller. Either shrink wrap the box, or just put a tiny amount of tape or another type of seal on the edges of the box, not all the way around the top and bottom. In the meantime, I simply transferred the rest my bath bomb set to another container, no problem. I think these 12 large (4.2 oz), vibrantly colored, fantastically fizzing bath bombs are a good value and very giftable, even if I have to place them in another box each time.", "label": 1}

I have multiple cotton sleep masks (all the same one) that I really like because I can wash them in the washing machine after every wear. This is important with eye problems because keeping the face and eyes clean is crucial.
In the past I have looked at some other very expensive ($100) silk sleep masks that look exactly like my cotton masks, but have decided against them because I am happy with the system I have. This silk mask costs $59, so I decided to try it.
First, it is exactly like my cotton masks. It has velcro in the back and the front is wider with a lip that goes over the nose. A very standard sleep mask. I have found that, like my cotton masks, it does not block all the light coming from the nose area, but I also have found this really does not matter. I usually wear this at night when it is very dark anyhow and when I wear it to nap during the day we have room darkening curtains, so it is really dark in our bedroom. The mask is just to protect my eyes.
This silk mask does go through the washing machine fine. I hung it on the line to dry and as promised it came out okay.
Here is the thing, I don't think this is real silk. It might be a silk blend, but silk feels smooth and mulberry silk, when it is squashed in the hand it will wrinkle, a lot, and it will make a very distinct crunching noise. There is a reason why the other silk sleep masks I have looked at cost over $100. Silk is expensive.
I looked up Tara Sartoria and they have a pretty good story going with their notes and their videos, but they have stores on Etsy, Amazon, Facebook, Instagram and wholesale sale offers directly on their website. This is not a small operation.
You can save your money and buy an identical and softer cotton mask.", "label": 0}

I've had plantar fasciitis for a while now and it is definitely no fun, especially first thing in the morning. I saw these online, I figured, I'd give it a shot, they don't look too bad.
When I took them out of the box, this funky smell hit me... it was so strong, that my cats actually ran from it. There are no instructions in or on the box, what so ever about how long to wear, how to launder, nothing. However I was pleasantly surprised that there was actually a pair in the box and not just one.
The white part is made of pretty soft material so it feels pretty good on my feet. Now, the "unique memory foam with cooling gel" aka the blue part... that is mighty unimpressive. I was hoping to feel either the memory foam or the cooling gel part, but unfortunately I don't. The whole thing is barely over (if at all) 1 mm thick, I am not sure it has any effect on anything what so ever.
Having to walk with plantar fasciitis I know how important a good support with quite bit of cushion is! Well, these really don't provide much of that at all.
I read the rest of the reviews and most people complain about them being too small. I don't have that problem but I do have pretty small feet (size 5.5) so they are almost a bit too big for me but definitely not for someone with swollen or big feet. I guess having a few different sizes could help that issue.
I will wear them for a few days and come back with an update to see if my feet feel any different.
Update: I've been wearing these for quite a few days now, noticed no difference in my plantar fasciitis. However, if I wear them for a few hours, my heels start sweating in them (eww).

This whey protein from Athletic Greens is very good. It does not have that bitter after taste that I have noticed with cheaper varieties. The banana flavor is on point and mixes well with various fruits and oat mixtures. I think it would also be great in some whole wheat cookies or pancakes. I find that the protein helps me to feel fuller and I can go longer between meals with fewer snacks when I am consuming it.
I love love love that this protein is made from 100% grass fed cows. It is all natural and that means NO GMO's, no herbicides, no pesticides, no synthetic chemicals, no artificial colors or flavors, and no preservatives or sweeteners. I am saying YES to all of those no's.
If you are someone with one or multiple food allergies then this protein is great because it has no dairy, gluten, corn, sucrose, dextrose, eggs, or peanuts. I think they pretty much covered the gamut of food allergies there.
My oldest daughter refuses to eat most meats. I have tried supplementing her diet with Pediasure to fill in the nutritional gaps but she does not like the taste and she says the drinks are, "for babies".

I purchased a Dolphin massager, but it stopped working after about 9 months. I then decided to purchase a new Wahl massager which is now larger and decided upon the professional model because it appeared to be more solid in build. I was disappointed that it came with only three attachments but decided that better quality was still the best route to follow. I am very pleased with the unit and find that it is solidly built, that it has plenty of power, and that I can get by fine with the three attachments. I have problems with my lower back and find that it is easy to position in the right places. Although it is not a thumper, it still gets the job done.
UPDATE 9-1-2015
Since I purchased my Wahl Professional massager on December 2, 2013, I have used it occasionally to relieve muscle trauma. I tried using it today and it ran fine for a couple of minutes and then stopped vibrating in its normal way. Now, it will vibrate at a very low level which I can stop with the slight press of my finger. I tried contacting Wahl to see if it could be repaired or replaced, but their website does not have a customer support page or a contact link that works. It is now worthless to me, and I am very disappointed in the present quality of Wahl products. I have now reverted back to the use of a Wahl massager that I inherited from my parents that is about 40 years old. The reason I have now given the massager a score of two stars instead of one is because it worked well while it worked.
Update 9-30-15
I decided to take the massager apart and see what caused it to stop working and discovered that the metal piece that vibrates had cracked at the point where it attaches to the motor. Because I was not able to find a way to communicate with Wahl customer service and, perhaps, obtain a new part, I took the broken part down to a machine shop and they welded the part that cracked. It now works like new. It appears that the quality of the Wahl massager is not be as good as their massagers used to be.", "label": 0}

They came wrapped (cardboard sleeve) 3 per stack. I put them to use at once-- for storing loose coffee, cookies, plastic-ware, and refrigerated leftovers. They stack perfectly, and certainly should be easy to take to picnics, work, long trips (placing in a box or large carryall is recommended to keep them from shifting or falling)
The 64 ounce size is generous. ALOT can be placed in each container -- and the lid snaps shut firmly, keeping everything inside. Of course, every lid will fit any container here. and everything that is not being used stacks securely in one place.
The price for this set of 18 is similar to the equivalent-sized ZipLoc containers at my local store that is known for its lower prices -- each set of 3 Ziploc Containers went for $3.69. I carefully inspected those Ziploc containers and they were the exact size and \"texture\" of the 18 Solimo containers I had at home.
The only perceived \"weak-point\" (and it is a \"weak-point\" for the ZipLocs as well) could be the corners-- they are more flexible than the rest of the container, which might be (IMHO) to keep the container from cracking at that point, should it fall)
I do not put them in the dishwasher -- I soak them and wash them by hand, dry them thoroughly and stack them for future use. I will check to see if the ones I have stored my coffee in will absorb that smell but it's too early to tell right now. I do not know if they freeze well, ( my little fridge's freezer DOES accept the smaller size storage containers and they Do freeze well, so I can assume this 64 ounce Solimo will freeze well, too) but I would suppose so - just don't drop the frozen container or like everything, it may break. UPDATE1-- it not only freezes well, but it does not stain either. UPDATE2 - One of them (test) went thru the dishwasher and came out just fine.
These containers are BPA-free, have no odor, and can be used in the microwave, with the lid slightly open, to Reheat -- not to cook -- leftovers. I'm very happy with the quality AND the quantity of containers in this 18-container Solimo Food Storage set.", "label": 1}

Let's face it, this is not an item anyone wants to need.
Forearm crutches are far better than the armpit version as far as convenience and mobility -- particularly for we women. The under the arm versions squash and bruise areas that should never be squashed or bruised. The E/R I landed in when I broke my ankle only had the arm pit crutchs -- clearly such \"standardization\" was done by a man who didn't have to worry about bruising and squashing \"side boobs\".... for women that's not workable. Having used crutches before, I asked for the forearm ones, when they didn't have them I was pretty stunned, and was on Amazon looking for the forearm variety as soon as I got home from the E/R and got 1 day delivery. It makes a world of difference. I was already bruised from the hospital issue ones when these arrived just from going back and forth to the bathroom a few times and getting to the door to take delivery of these.
These are also much better for getting in and out of a car. Because they're so much shorter than the arm pit crutches, they are just plain easier to maneuver all the way around. Having used both at various times over the years, I simply don't understand why anyone would use the other type at all. The big ones are more cumbersome, heavier, and smash sensitive areas. No crutch is a joy to use, but why make it harder?
My only problem is that with the hot weather this summer, the rubberized coating on the cuffs sticks to my forearm and can be a pain -- the flip side of that is that it makes it easier to use my hands because my forearm isn't sliding out through the cuffs if they're effectively glued to me.

They come in 2 separate packages, I've posted pictures to show you. They have the elasticity of a hair tie. The material is non toxic and safe. You can definitely tell with the beaded ones the size is different in all 3, but the smooth ones I cannot tell a difference. It says that the small ring is for maximum erections, medium for hard erections, and large ring is for the upper part of the scrotem to prevent premature ejaculation. Now, I'm going to tell you what we did with them. We started off with one just on the base, which I really enjoyed ( beaded ). Then, we put one over scrotem and at top of penis. I really liked it, but he didn't so much. We finally ended up with the largest one stretched over both shaft and scrotem, and it worked really great. It comes with 6, you can experiment with what feels best for you.
These are kind of a jelly-like and stretchable material, but still have a little firmness ( especially in the thicker, smoother ones ). I can fit one around my wrist, so I don't see anyone having a problem with getting into one. We like that part because we have gotten some that were either too small or too wide.

I bought a One Tracker and thought it was such a good idea that I decided to try the FITBIT scale. The first one I received totally quit working within one hour. Amazon sent a replacement.
I followed the instructions and set the scale up and the WI-FI worked and connected the scale to my online account (dashboard).
I set the scale on my wood floor, took off my shoes and socks and weighed myself.
The first weight was 68 lbs (I weigh 205.5, according to my doctor's scale).
I chalked this up to the machine calibrating itself.
I waited 10 minutes and weighed myself three times, pausing between each weighing.
The weights given were:
205.9
204.2
205.1
I contacted FITBIT and gave them the results.
I was told that the scale gives a "unique" weight each time you weigh and this can fluctuate if you move any at all when you're weighing yourself.
I was also told the scale has an accuracy of +- 2 lbs. I thought this meant that the weight it gives will be within 2 lbs of the "true" weight as measured by a doctor's scale or other high end scale.
In other words, it's fine so long as it gives the same weight if I weigh myself three times in a row.
Apparently, that's not what it means.
If I weigh myself three times in a row I may get three different weights, within 2 LBs of the "true" weight.
For example, I weigh myself today and I'm at, say, 205.
I lose 1 LB which brings me to 204.
The next day I weigh myself.
The scale may report the weight as anywhere between 202 and 206 ( 204 +- 2LBS).
This may(!) be very discouraging to anyone on a diet who is trying very hard to lose weight.
A lower number at weigh-in time is a great incentive to keep going.
But if the scale is unable to record the loss, and may actually show a gain this might lead one to say "What's the use. I tried hard and still gained weight."", "label": 0}

First it is not a tiny little foot massager. It is pretty big but it is very light. I was surprised at how light it is. It comes with a remote control and a pamphlet that tells you all the features and massage areas. For example - there are 4 preprogrammed modes that work different things - P1 is a general health care massage. P2 focuses on head, neck, lumbar spine, shoulders, etc. P3 - focuses on Intestinal, liver, stomach, etc. P4 focuses on legs, reproductive and urinary systems.
The pamphlet also shows you reflexology targets on your foot for fatique, high blood pressure, constipation, headaches, shoulder pain, stomach ache, etc just to name a few.
My only complaint that I have so far is that the cord is too short. It is not enough to deduct a star but worth mentioning. Maybe they will read the critiques and start putting longer cords on the massagers, but I just keep an extension cord attached to it.
I uploaded a video to show you the functions. I hope it helps.

He likes the convenient pump and liquid consistency. I then started using it for make-up removal and then sometimes as a moisturizer. This oil glides on really well without pulling the skin, especially around the eyes to remove make-up. With my jojoba oil and rosehip oil I usually need to initially pat these on my skin as they do not glide as well. I sometimes mix these oils with the fractionated coconut oil. Alternatively, I sometimes layer the oils, applying the fractionated coconut oil first as a base to help the other oils glide better. I also use the fractionated coconut oil by itself. It feels wonderful on the skin and works well with gua sha. I also apply it to the ends of my hair. (I know, I have to get my own bottle!)
The Cost: At first blush, it appears that I can get twice the amount with other vendors for the same price. However, I did not do an in-depth comparison of the quality of the products. I saw this product had good reviews, is pure and certified organic, not animal-tested, and supposedly hexane-free; so I wanted to try it. Also, only a few drops, a slight squirt, is needed to cover the face and neck.
Shipping & Delivery: I was concerned about spillage during shipping as I had read reviews of spillage issues with various vendors on Amazon. This (plastic) bottle was perfectly delivered with no spillage. It came bubble-wrapped with the top of the bottle sealed and then topped with a screw-on, flip cap. The pump was packed in the same bubble wrap alongside the bottle.
The Pump: The pump was super easy to open, the easiest pump I have opened.

Here we are many years later with a new bag of guar gum up on the counter, and very little hope it will be any better than all the others.
Let's give it a shot: A favorite recipe (really a recipe concept) was to create a very stiff whipped cream from nothing more than dry nonfat milk powder, frozen fruit, guar gum, flavor extracts & some sweetener. There were a lot of different variations on this theme, which was always a major hit at many ladies' luncheons.
The mouth feel and textures generated by this concept could be anything from a soft serve ice cream to an unbelievable mountain of whipped cream just as light or as stiff as desired. All from the exact same quantity of starter ingredients. The more it's whipped, the greater the volume achieved. The only difference between two cups of soft serve ice cream or six cups of fluffy whipped cream was the addition of 2 tablespoons COLD water and simply continue whipping for a few minutes longer.
For today's test:
I tossed 1/3 cup dry NONFAT milk powder into the food processor along with a teaspoon of guar, 6 ounces FROZEN peach slices, half a teaspoon each of vanilla & almond extract, and some artificial sweetener. That's all. Flipped on the processor and let her run around 3 minutes This was long enough to dissolve the dry ingredients and allow my guar /frozen fruit/NONFAT milk powder combo -> to do its magic.

Thankfully, it passed with flying colors.
I'm one of those lucky people who have both sensitive AND oily, acne-prone skin. YAY ME. So it's very, very hard for me to find products that adequately address both issues: the ones for sensitive skin tend not to help with my acne, and the acne-targeted products dry out and irritate my skin.
First impressions: the bottle came with the clay separated, so I had doubts. There is no strong scent, which I really appreciate; you can detect a little bit of the clay and some of the lavender, but only barely, and once on the skin, any hint of scent disappeared. It went on easily, did not make my skin feel tight or dry, didn't irritate my skin. I was able to put my regular makeup on over it easily; even without an added moisturizer, my foundation seemed to go on more smoothly than normal. And after a day both in and outside (tbh, there wasn't really a difference for me, thanks to my lack of A/C), I managed to avoid the usual oil slick across my face. There were times when I was sweating quite a bit on my face; I did not notice any stinging in my eyes or streaking on my face. After washing my face at the end of the day with my usual cleanser, my skin was still soft, not irritated.
The only drawback (and not worth taking away a star) was the actual application method: the instructions indicate you squirt into your hands and pat on your face. Doing it that way, I felt like more product ended up between my fingers and on my hands instead of my face. I tried it with a cotton pad instead, using the patting method, and it appeared to work just as well and saved more of the product for my face instead of my hands.
Overall, this is an excellent product, does what it says it will (and very well), and though I received this as a complimentary product, I would most certainly pay money to get it again.

I first started using it when I came across an article about how to clean and whiten your teeth naturally. I had become curious at that time, so I read as much as I could about cleaning and whitening teeth with organic extra virgin coconut oil. I couldn't get enough of reading the testimonials because I am curious like that. So once I got tired of reading, I decided I was sold on trying it. I have to admit, when I first tried it, it made me want to gag. But I reduced the tablespoon down to about a teaspoon for about a week until I got used to having it in my mouth. Long story short, it definitely works for me. After about two months of using, my teeth felt clean and I told a friend, who was asking about it, that at times when I rub my tongue across my teeth, I could feel a silent squeak. I know, but it's true.
My next experience was trying to figure out how to incorporate coconut oil into my diet. So off I was to research adding organic extra virgin coconut oil into my diet. I decided to start adding a tablespoon into my green smoothies that I drink each day or every other day because I read that it aids in dieting. I had already lost quite a bit of weight just with green smoothies, but wanted to incorporate this in for the health benefits. I just started doing that a about a week ago. Will see how that works for me.
And lastly, I have been mixing organic extra virgin coconut oil in my hair oils and body lotions. I've just started making my own body butters and this is one of my main ingredients.
I received this organic extra virgin coconut oil at a discount in exchange for my honest opinion. I can't say to much more about this oil. It's great and I can't see myself without it.", "label": 1}

Our weather here in Ohio has again been unpredictable and now we have some late spring snow, so these couldn't have arrived at a better time for me. The color is a dark black color. These are one size fits all sizing and they really stretch. They are also very thick -- I don't think enough to make your shoes too tight on you but the 1 thing I could think of that could be a down side so I tested that theory and tried with my shoes and boots and DID find a tighter fit on my knee high boots in my calf area but not a "deal breaker" for me at all! No problem with any other of the shoes or boots I wear mainly.
Depending on your own legs it is not certain how long on you these would be but I wear a size 6.5 shoe and am not tall so they fit just about like in the picture...above my knee. I checked the sewn area around the toe and it is well sewn and only a couple of loose threads that came right off. I found a few small snags but you don't see them when on as they stretch out. O.K. so now I have washed and dried them and NO CHANGE noted at all! They did not shrink but I did dry on low just in case, never hurts right. I may be getting more of these for my daughter who is always cold. But really these are well made, long warm socks or leg warmers if you want to call them that. I did receive these at a discounted price in exchange for my honest opinion which is exactly what I do and why I take time to try with shoes and such. All my opinions are from my own experience with any product I receive. I would really recommend these "leg warmers".

I played around with this piece of junk for almost 2 hours trying to do a chignon. When you put your hair into the clip, as you pull it down to the ends of your hair, it turns and flips on you so you are fighting to keep the miniscule teeth of the clip on your hair the entire time. IF (and that's a big IF), you finally get it into position so you can roll it back down towards your head, as you start rolling, your hair starts sticking out of the clip and by the time you are down and ready to twist it closed, you have very little hair in the chignon and most of it sticking out (assuming you did not get it tangled in your hair).
I tried wetting my hair, applying a light gel, everything to keep my hair together, but nothing worked. I wear my hair bone-straight, same length all around (even cut, like a bob), thick and falls about 4 inches below my shoulders. I even tried sliding it down to the end, but leaving about 3 inches of hair beyond the clip, and tat still didn't work, the clip still did not roll the hair down properly. These were my personal experiences with the clip, other issues I had with the product:
1) Instructions are ONLY written in Kanji (Chinese) letters. The least the product vendor can do it slip in an English (or even Spanish) translation when selling the product to US purchasers. I should not have to have my laptop running the video while I am trying to do my hair.
2) The clip really is made of a cheap, flimsy plastic, so it has absolutely no ability to stay straight on the hair and not bend/flip. If you have thick hair, avoid it, since you will have trouble getting in position to even start the roll down.
Overall, the clips (I ordered two of them) went back very quickly to Amazon (and yes, is there a reason why Amazon ships two flat pieces of plastic in a box designed to hold a book? They could have been shipped in a manila envelope...thereby saving the customer shipping charges).

She felt that at his age (86) his body was not absorbing the vitamin tablets he was taking, and she wanted him to try this. She sells this as part of her weight loss clinic, and I bought the first canister from her. I followed her directions to give him 1 scoop once a day mixed with about 1/2 cup water or juice, and I noticed a slight positive improvement in his physical and mental abilities. When that canister was empty, I went back to her office to get some more; they were out. They were out for the next 3 weeks, and my dad's health, physical and mental, was declining rapidly. So I ordered it from Amazon using the Prime shipping option on a Friday, and received it 2 days later, on Sunday. I mixed it according to the canister directions, which is 2 scoops once a day mixed with about 1/2 cup water or juice, and gave him a dose Sunday night, and another mid-day on Monday. His mental and physical health bounced back dramatically by Tuesday. So I continued to give him the 2 scoops dosage. This product has probiotics in it and that has helped with his elderly digestive issues that had developed. I quickly found out that since it is a powder, it does not mix well when stirred, but does mix very well when put into a jar with a lid and is shaken. It is like any dry powder: it takes a bit of time to absorb the liquid. The product is a red powder, and mixes up to look like an opaque red kids' drink. It tastes like a mix of red kids' drink and grapefruit juice; it has a strong citrus flavor. I take this as well now, and I personally like it better mixed as directed then put into a larger cup and topped up with orange juice. I also prefer it chilled, so will add a cube of ice just before serving. Every other vitamin powder I have ever tried looks and tastes like pond water with algae in it; this does not! It is very pricey, but if you or someone you know is having some issues, physical or mental, try it; it might help.", "label": 1}

One detail is that the witness chamber is very very small. And if you used powder or fluid in the chamber it would be hard to clean such a small area. I never use a chamber so that doesn't matter to me but if you like a witness chamber then this isn't the pendulum for you. Something that you need to know is that there is a brass keychain style of chord from the inside of the top of the pendulum that isn't shown,. unless someone adds a different picture. The chain emerges from the top of the pendulum bob and cannot be swapped for another chain which for me is fine. The length of the chain from the top of the pendulum bob to the small ball at the end of the pendulum is exactly 5 1/2 inches long which is good for map and chart dowsing in particular. The pendulum bob itself is 2 inches long and is a slightly heavy pendulum. It is the weight of a very small fishing weight. Most people prefer a little weight to a pendulum. I do and so this is another matter of taste.
This is a good strong heavy duty professional quality pendulum which is what matters to most people and it looks great. It is a top of the line quality pendulum.
Here is my primary problems, and it's with the descriptions on this page that is used for this pendulum,. and to a degree with other pendulums that are labeled Xeonix pendulums on Amazon. First one very important point is that this style of pendulum is known as an \"Isis pendulum\" which is a style of Egyptian pendulum. People looking for either Egyptian pendulums or for an Isis pendulum can't find this pendulum unless they really really know where to look. And Xeonix isn't a pendulum supplier not a manufacturer because there are many other styles of pendulums could be mislabeled a brand of pendulums. They supply other metal pendulum and wooden pendulums and over 50 styles of crystal pendulums and a lot more so most pendulums could be mislabeled as being Xeonix pendulums.

There's a lot of stuff in here for just $20, especially considering that these same products in these same sizes go for a minimum of $4 a pop on the Nailtiques website. These are very small containers but I'm thinking they will last for at least a month, some possibly longer depending on how much is used each time. So far I've used the cuticle and skin gel, the nail moisturizer, the oil therapy and the hand conditioner. This would be a nice gift for someone who loves taking care of their nails.
Right off, the scent is quite nice, not overpowering. These are rich feeling but not greasy at all. They seem to sink right in and give relief for that dry feeling my hands and nails can sometimes get. I decided to use these first then I'll put on the protein tomorrow. My nails are not all that soft but they do have ridges and tend to split along those ridges. They also get very dry and tend to peel. This kit seems to be perfect, although, not sure I'll be using the foot cream much since most likely I will only get one application out of the tiny container.
Included in the boxes for both the protein and the oil is a very short guide which describes all of the products and directions for use along with suggestions and tips for specific uses. Otherwise, it's up to you how you use these. I applied the cuticle and skin gel first, then the nail moisturizer, then the oil and finished up with the hand cream. If you go to their website and look at the FAQ page, they state that the nail moisturizer promotes nail moisture and the oil seals it in. I just went to the website and read it over so that I had an idea of how to use these things for the best results.
Now, keep in mind, the formula 2 protein does have formaldehyde resin in it, which is what helps strengthen the nails, but if you have a problem with using anything with formaldehyde, you'll probably want to look at something else.
I've read so many good reviews of the Nailtiques products that I was willing to give this a shot. Only time will tell if it'll work for me or not.", "label": 1}

They are very functional & extremely useful for all of us whom incorporate a large portion of our lives to outdoor activities. The tents would make your love of outdoor eating at places such as backyard bbqs, forest preserve gatherings or beach picnics so much easier! You get six 17 X 17 food cover tents in this package, they\u2019re big enough to cover a full size plate, a tall glass of drink, utensils, napkins & even a side salad bowl or corn on the cob holder. They\u2019re extremely roomy enough to fit plenty of food underneath them regardless of width or height as they\u2019re just as tall as they are wide. The possibilities are endless of what these can cover keeping your food safe from insects or even from being knocked over as the large tents are hard to miss. My favorite thing about these mesh tents is how easy & quick they are to operate, you simply pull the string at the top until the plastic notches at the center connects and it pops open. It\u2019s lightweight & lightening quick which is what you need when you\u2019re very busy hosting, preparing & presenting food. Then when you\u2019re finished with them, simply pop the plastic notch off from center and it folds down nice and slim for easy storage. I like the cute lace ruffles underneath the tents, adds a little detail to them. The only flaw in these tents is the mesh itself, it doesn\u2019t appear to be very durable and looks like it could rip quite easily. So these would make great vacation food tents where one would only use them for temporarily. However, if you\u2019re careful with them I\u2019d imagine they would hold up for most of your outdoor gatherings as it\u2019s not everyday we eat outside anyways. At the time of this review the item was unavailable so I\u2019m unable to comment on pricing or whether it\u2019s worth the price point.

Additionally, I am susceptible to S.A.D. and I can't stand overhead fluorescent lighting. I was looking for a lamp to provide natural looking light in my office. I'm not dissatisfied with the purchase, but I probably wouldn't buy it again.
Maybe I should have figured this out, but "natural spectrum" does NOT mean it looks like sunlight. It is much "cooler"--very similar to the ghostly white cast by overhead fluorescent lights. That said, it is superior to standard office florescents in every other way. No flicker, no buzz, no glare (thanks to diffuser grate). Additionally, it's not bright enough to light much of a room. I don't think it could be a sole source of light in any situation. I ended up getting a couple of floor lamps for general lighting in my office (with standard incandescents for their warmer glow), and placed this light next to a work table for additional task lighting. Since it's only supplemental, the white-ness of this light doesn't bother me much in this setup. I also have it cast on a little palm, which seems grateful for the wide spectrum.
One more thing: I don't think this works as a therapy lamp. The product page is unclear as to if it is intended to. Verilux makes nice therapy lamps, and it seems like this lamp uses the same type of light, so it might have some benefit. However, my understanding is that for therapy lamps to work, the light needs to hit your retina directly. This lamp really can't do that in normal situations. I have a directional LED therapy lamp on my desk for my S.A.D. treatment.
Given all this, yes, it's a very high quality lamp and is what is advertised. However, if I were to do it over again I would have gotten a brighter, cheaper lamp for my purposes.", "label": 1}

The black tin has interlocking gold-trimmed leaves on both the lid and the bottom of the container, with a nice gold band around the center of the container separating the lid from the bottom. When the lid is removed, there is an inner gold-colored lid with a black knob. Lifting the inner lid, I see the makeup remover pads--there are 16 pads in all. The pads are black with gold trim around the edge, very elegant looking, and are 3 1/2\" in diameter. The flip side of the pad is black with a different pattern of gold trim, also very classy. The cotton material of the pads is very soft and gentle to the touch and when wiping my face. I love the fact that both sides of each pad is usable, and the pads themselves are all washable and reusable. Washing instructions are on the box--machine or hand wash in warm water. There is even a soft little 100% cotton mesh laundry bag to use. The box then says to place them on a dry towel or flat surface to dry. The online instructions say they can be dried on a low heat, but since they're 70% bamboo cotton and 30% regular cotton, I think I'll just let them air dry rather than risk shrinkage or distortion. I am very impressed with this makeup remover set. Though I am keeping this set for myself, I consider it very giftable and an excellent value. --Update: My wife likes these pads so much I also ordered a set with a pretty pink and lavender container that has pink and white pads, and a set with a pretty blue container that has light blue and white pads.

THIS STUFF REALLY WORKS! It's no joke, yea it might be a little pricey but you get multiple uses out of it, depending on how much you use each time. What it does it helps the resin/leftovers not stick to the glass, it basically will keep resin/leftovers off glass up to how high the water level is. (see attached picture)
Every time I clean the glass, I'll put in about 10 drops of the concentrate and give it a swirl, THATS IT! The rezblock does the rest you don't have to worry about anything until it comes time to clean, which I recommend you do at least monthly. When you go to clean it you don't even need warm/hot water, just run cold water throughout and the residue just flows right out. No fuss no mess.
The biggest/best thing about this stuff to me is that it goes right into the water you're using, it's 100% safe to smoke with.
I've tasted it (yes it said natural and safe) it doesn't taste good and it will get sticky after drying so try not to spill it since it's a dark red (see picture)

It has some nice features such as USB C charging plug which means it uses the same charging cable that many smart phones use. This is really good because many of these shavers are using a special cable that may be hard to find, which is going to be a real problem if you lose it or break it while travelling. The two issues I have with it are 1) The trimmer which performs very poor 2) The pivoting platforms in the head part is sticky. It doesn't move freely. It could be affecting the shave quality which is just OK. It seems to be a sign of poor quality.
Positives
1) Standard USB C plug charging cable. Brilliant.
2) Uses a Toggle on/off switch which I prefer to a button that can be accidently turned on while travelling
3) Comfortable to hold.
4) Reasonably quiet.
5) Seems to use standard heads that many of these Chinese shavers use. The Flyco heads fit and replacement blades are available for purchase (really cheap too).
6) Cheap price.
7) Charging, Full charge and low battery indications. Nice.
Negatives.
1) Quality is suspect. Sticky heads.
2) Lousy trimmer. I would need a separate grooming device to do any trimming.
3) Shave is only OK. The Flyco shaves better.
I suspect the sticky heads is causing the so so shave. I ordered a replacement top head part ($6 on fasttech) so we will see if this improves the shave. For now it gets 3 stars.
UPDATE : Shaving performance has improved considerably. Now it's a great shave. I guess it needed to adjust to my face.
Another feature discovered. This is a cord/cordless shaver. When the battery is depleted the shaver stops running. No problem. you can simply plug it in and continue shaving. Very nice. Many cheap shavers are cordless only which means if the battery runs out in the middle of a shave you are rather stuck.", "label": 1}

Green bulb with little knobs all over it - It was alright. The concentrated vibrations in the tiny knobs were ticklish and fun. Was more enjoyable for actual back/neck massage.
Green with bunny - The penetration part is great. Slid in nicely and fits/feels good. The bunny ears were a little too... intense/sharp when they barely touch the clit area. Feel fine once slid more securely in place.
Red with knobs all over - Was ar first awkward to insert, but the knobs all over felt really good inside with the texture.
Red one like the one above but no textured knobs - Fit was great... felt good going in. Definitely for higher vibration settings as it doesn't transfer vibration as stringly. The butt part was like a nice massage. Clit part was slightly disappointing as the vibration didn't pass through it very well.
Orange prostate - Slightly smaller than expected. Easy to insert. Hit the spot for him. Great addition for couples buying the pack.
Orange w/ anal beads - The anal beads were fantastic. Felt great inserting and removing. It was the right size and vibrations were fun. Curved vaginal insertion was good too, but the beads stole the show. The clit part was really disappointing. Too short to reach my clit, and I'm a tiny girl.
pink/purple straight - It's straight and smooth. Unremarkable compared to any of the others, but would be fine if you were looking for something to move in/out vs keeping in place.
pink/purple curved - the angle curved was surprisingly nice. Hit the g-spot good.

That, in addition to my extensive marital arts training and fitness lifestyle, makes me hyper critical of all workout and performance supplements. Aside from my sensitivity to caffeine, I generally dismiss a product if it does not have a direct usefulness in the many martial arts practices and competitions (Wrestling, Jiu Jitsu, Judo, Pankration, MMA) I take part in.
I've tried Gatorade, PowerAde, Body Shield, Vitamin Water and a slew of other "Sports Drinks" designed to help rehydrate a body after an intense workout, but I generally have the exact same experience each time. I step onto the mat for my match, fight furiously (I promise that no workout is as intense as 1 on 1 combat) and come off the mat with muscles that are generally blown out and cramped from intense exertion. This wouldn't be a problem if I had loads of time between each match, but I don't and having a constant and flowing use of all my muscles is incredibly important.
Beachbody's Performance line has lots of interesting supplements in it but Hydrate is the one for me and the one product whose effects I notice immediately. Most rehydration liquids do nothing for the cramping that I experience right after trying to choke someone to sleep or rip a limb off, but Hydrate is something special. You don't need to drink a ton in my experience, as a little seems to go a long way. A double serving gets me through a solid 2 hour Jiu Jitsu training situation, and I can't rave about it quite enough during my tournament settings. So far it is the only hydration liquid I have ever noticed to severely cut down or eliminate cramping due to intense exercise, and has generally kept me in the stronger in the game for longer.

It works pretty well, but my only complaint is that I wish it could get a little bit louder. We live in a small house, and noise from other rooms in the house is still audible (although faint) over this machine. It's a great deal for the price though, and it's not so bad that I am going to buy a different machine. I like that it runs on an on/off switch rather than a timer, as some other brands do - this way, when I turn this machine on, it is on until I turn it off - no spontaneous shut-offs that lead to her waking up.
UPDATE: 9/20/2015 - almost 2 years later, and I feel like I should update this review. We have been using this sound machine every night (and nap time) since we bought it. I originally thought it wasn't quite loud enough for our daughter's nursery, but over time I have come to realize that it is just the right volume and level to help her sleep without me having to be concerned about her hearing. There are other 'sleep noise' products that are probably just too LOUD to be using every night. With this Dohm sound machine, I don't worry about whether her hearing is being negatively impacted by the noise. It IS possible to hear loud noises outside of the room when using this machine, but the machine provides a great sound to dull most noises to a background level. It also is not so loud that it is distracting or intrusive in a way that would keep you from falling asleep.
In the 2 years we have been using this, my daughter has slept great. We even pack it with us when we travel - I am willing to give up valuable suitcase carry-on room for this machine when we fly, so that should let you know how great I think it is. My daughter even asks me to turn the machine on before she goes to bed if I forget.

I am 31, athletic build with bad knee pain and so my physical therapist suggest insoles among many other treatments. I like that these have lines in the back side so you can use them as markings.
They come with these semi- customizable arch pads with a sticky back to stick onto the back side of the insoles. You can choose small, medium, large and soft support or regular support (6 pairs total). Additionally, you can also choose where to put these arch pads on the insoles, that's where the lines come in handy. You can also cut these down to size to fit your shoes, and the lines help with that too.
I can see how insoles would be a challenge for some shoes, I found the Ugg boots easiest to work with because they are so cushy with so much fur you can smush down. Sports shoes would be ok but you would have to remove the existing insoles.
When you first wear these, it takes time getting used to. First time I wore these to walk my dogs, and I was already tired within 5 minutes. Probably want you want to do is slowly introduce it into your life and wear it for 30 mins a day, and gradually increase the time instead of what I did which was walk my dogs and then wore the same boots to work.
Edit: 2/19/21
I have chronic knee pain and got this because the sports doctor and my physical therapist told me to get insoles. At first my feet got tired after only a few minutes. I have been wearing these daily for a while now, and 5 days a week I am taking at least 12,000 steps. I am wearing Uggs, because these are too thick for my sports shoes. I have felt some relief and improvements in my knees and no longer have tired feet now that I am used to these. I wish these are harder with less flex, but they are really good beginner insoles. I will soon be moving on from these to more intermediate, form fitted ones that are prescribed. I am very happy that I tried these, I never had insoles before.", "label": 1}

This version has velcro and is thick, bulky, hot & scratchy. The shape doesn't help keep it in place. There are better jaw supports without Velcro and with a double-strap system that goes on top and behind the head for stability. This one is better in my opinion: [[ASIN:B00JOQIP3K PCS 500# Snore Eliminator PRO Adjustable Chin Strap Support]] The very best is at mysnoringsolution.com. They originally sold for a few bucks.

Update:
By far the best is 'My snoring solution' found here. It's stupid expensive, but it works. The vendor sells it for $80 elsewhere on the web. [[ASIN:B07C6XWCX1 My Snoring Solution Anti Snoring Stop Snoring Jaw Strap Chin Supporter (Large)]] Beware, there are imitators. Look at this photo: No velcro.

I had my amalgam fillings removed years ago and had relief from some of the ailments they caused. However, I set out to find the best way to detox heavy metals because I still had a very weak immune system and had never been able to lose weight (our bodies store toxins like metals in fat cells.) I tried so many detoxes and cleanses but never really saw much results. About 5 years ago I got 6 bottles of Metal Magic (bought from the website on sale) and took the bottles along with a whole body cleanse like the one sold on Baseline's site. Well, the results were amazing! One of the most immediate and unexpected results were that my constant, chronic neck pain was gone. After years of chiropractor visits, and crazy pillows and gadgets to soothe my debilitating neck pain and headaches they just vanished! My immune system got stronger (I'm a teacher and have always been plagued by every bug that went around, but that next school I hardly got sick at all!) Also, I was finally able to lose weight! I had been on a dozen diets through the years but it never had real results. It was like everything that worked for everyone else just wouldn't work for my body. I really think this removed heavy metals stored in my fat cells and once those toxins were gone, I was able to lose the fat. Obviously, it's not a miracle and I was eating healthy (it was a cleanse after all) but I normally eat very healthily without losing weight. Another reviewer mentioned that it has a strong alcohol smell/taste, but it wasn't bad. Maybe if you've never taken an alcohol-based tincture, but it's medicine and not meant to taste good. Give it a try if you suffer from symptoms of heavy metal overload. Over the years, I've struggled with some reappearing symptoms like more frequent headaches, some weight gain, and skin issues so I knew it was time to do another cleanse including metal magic. I've already gotten some great results!", "label": 1}

I didn\u2019t realize just how long it was because I hadn\u2019t straightened it in about 18 months because with 3 kids I simply don\u2019t have that kind of time. A friend of mine mentioned getting a hair straightening brush and how much faster and easier it is so I thought I\u2019d give one a try.
The Moxie Brush really is significantly faster than my regular flat iron, cutting styling time at least in half! I was worried that the brush would pull my hair or cause excessive static, but that wasn\u2019t the case at all. It actually left my hair really smooth. I even noticed that since I was simply brushing my hair, I wasn\u2019t getting burned. I have the heat resistant styling gloves, but I really don\u2019t like to wear them because I like the feel my hair as I straighten it.
At first I kept pressing the buttons on the side while using it, but quickly I got the hang of holding the brush so that my fingers didn\u2019t touch them. I think one thing that makes the Moxie Brush wonderful is that for people who aren\u2019t used to using a regular flat iron, it\u2019s a much simpler design. Aside from being great for your average user, it\u2019s also a game changer for younger girls who haven\u2019t used heated styling tools before, boyfriends who can\u2019t be trusted not to burn off your ears, and people, like my mom, who just love the feeling of having their hair brushed.
I do have to deduct one star because though it took the curls out very quickly, when it came to getting the subtle kinks out it either took a lot of work or simply couldn\u2019t straighten them and I had to go back over them with my regular flat iron. If you\u2019re not looking for pin straight hair then this is absolutely the product for you. I think even despite having to use two tools to get the job done instead of one, this brush still saved me a ton of time and that is what I was going for anyway.
I was lucky enough to get to try out this product at a discount in exchange for my honest review. The Moxie Brush is extremely innovative with a ton of potential. It absolutely saves time, is way easier to use than a flat iron, and less likely to cause burns making it a must have tool for everyone that wants straight hair.", "label": 1}

It was packaged very nicely and was preceded by an email from the vendor. When I opened the package containing the vest, I was overwhelmed by the smell of rubber-like chemical smell. The smell was so strong that it lit up the entire room. I immediately removed it from the house and placed it on an hanger in the garage in an attempt to let it air out. I checked on it Sunday, Monday and Tuesday and it still had a strong smell although less than when I first received it. I tried it on and adjusted the straps as instructed. As some of the previous reviewers indicate, the strap material going under the arm is very uncomfortable (on top of a long sleeved shirt) even when you loosen the straps. This could have been avoided if the manufacturer had lengthened the vest material enough to go under your arms as it is less abrasive.
The buckle used for the strap adjustments is also an issue as it presses up against my side.
As for the magnets, I feel nothing, and wouldn't have noticed that they are there had I not read reviews concerning whether or not they are authentic. I have not tested them.
Today is Wednesday, I decided to wear the vest while working. Again the smell is still very strong and actually gave me a headache and upset my stomach after wearing it at my desk forcing me to open my office door. The shirt I wore yesterday wreaks f the rubber chemical smell. the straps are very uncomfortable no matter how much I adjust it. Overall, the vest does provide decent support, but tends to ride up when you are wearing it. The magnets have no affect whatsoever.
I will give it until Saturday to see if the smell dissipates before I return it. It appears that this was a decent design concept at the start, but a failure upon execution due to the poor materials used. I will update on Saturday to let others know whether or not after 7 days the chemical smell has dissipated. I'm unsure why it has such a smell as I have purchased many items that use neoprene and not one including several support belts had this smell when I received them. The fact that it gave me a headache and upset my stomach gives me pause as to whether or not it is safe to wear. (short of sending it over to EPA or FDA to safety evaluation)", "label": 0}

In fact, I generally opt for paper towels as my go-to tissue simply for their durability (I generally do not care about the texture or feel). I found the KLEENEX EXPRESSIONS to be a refreshing approach to the standard box of tissues in that they not only hold-up when used, they have silky texture that glides the tissue across the skin.
WHAT MAKES THESE TISSUE STAND OUT?
My constant need for having a tissue (or ten) on hand at any given moment has led to a more unconventional approach \u2026 using paper towels. The main reasons why I\u2019ve opted for such a heavy duty approach are that most every tissue I\u2019ve ever used presented three issues I couldn\u2019t stand: 1) they easily blew apart and created a mess, 2) they had little to no absorption quality and 3) they were super dry and always left \u201ctissue dust\u201d on my upper lip (especially if I didn\u2019t shave that day). A paper towel was so much easier to deal with, especially if you could not readily throw the tissue away after use.
The KLEENEX ESPRESSIONS is a big step in the direction I was looking for in a tissue as all three of my issues are simultaneously addressed with this product. First, the tissues are not dry at all and leave no paper remnants on my upper lip after use. Coconut oil and aloe are \u201cinfused\u201d into the tissue and generate a silky feel that is not moist, but not dry. The tissue glides across the skin smoothly and does not leave any residue. Additionally, the constitution of these tissues allows them to be stronger and more absorptive that most tissues I have previously used. In other words, they do not blow apart and generate a nasty mess after use.
While I am still reliant on my paper towel square as a standard pocket handkerchief, for those with less heavy-duty needs, the KLEENEX EXPRESSIONS with the lotion infused in the tissue offers a high degree of comfort and durability. For the common cold or sinus infection where constant tissue use turns your nose raw, this tissue would certainly be my recommendation.", "label": 1}

The screws go into these to hold the arms in place so when the plastic around the nut broke the whole arm became loose. When this new set of arms arrived they looked nearly identical to the originals which I was happy about. Only two screws were included instead of four but at the time I didn't care since I was just going to reuse the existing screws anyway.
Then I went to install the arms and found that these the brass insert nuts in these new arms had different thread thicknesses so my original screws couldn't go in very far. I contacted the seller and they said two more screws would be shipped out to me. I took the two screws that had been included and used them to install one of the arms. These screws didn't look like the black flat-head screws in the picture, though. Instead they were silver-colored pan-head screws. They screwed in just fine and my wife says the armrest feels just like the original, only new.
I'm disappointed that I couldn't use my original screws and that only two screws were included instead of four, but I can't really blame the product for either of these. They look nearly identical to the originals with only a slight difference in the pattern and glossiness of the material. If you look closely at my comparison pictures you should be able to see the difference. My wife finds them comfortable and they look good but I would have preferred the flat-head style screws and to have received all four of them at the same time.

There is a large assortment of sound choices, each of decent quality. The speaker is decent, although a bit lacking in the lower frequencies (bass sounds). The sound machine does operate as expected. While the icon based touch buttons are a bit small, they are rather easy to figure out (especially easy if you read the user guide, and view the round card insert that details the function of each button (see attached photo, close up of the round card).
A 3 second press of the 'sun' icon will activate the light feature. Successive taps of that same button will cycle through the various colors. A 3 second press of the button will turn off the lighting feature. That's an example of how easy and simple the operation of this product.
Opposite the 'sun' icon are the three touch buttons to select the audio/sounds. There's 32 audio options available. You can adjust the sound level, however the lighting intensity cannot be adjusted.
The clock icon engages the timer options.
The operation of the sound machine is much common sense, and pretty straightforward.
An important note: this is not a rechargeable battery operated device. This could account for the better speaker (needing more power for this aspect). While I prefer cordless operation of this genre product, this was not a stated feature of the product. So, this does not negatively affect the rating.
On the other hand, a full AC adapter with long cord is included. Not a USB cable that requires a free USB port, or a USB power plug. This is a plus.
Another feature mentioned is the availability of a headphone jack. I find this a bit odd, but I guess if someone wants the sounds, without disturbing someone in the same room, headphones would be considerate. This scenario only makes sense if you're planning to use the sound machine for meditating or relaxing. I don't envision someone wearing headphones while planning to fall asleep.
This is a very credible sound machine with a rather bright night light feature. It basically satisfied expectations, based upon the descriptions and pictures in the product details. It earns a 4.25 - 4.5 star rating, with a high level recommendation.", "label": 1}

My only concern is I read a review that stated thier unit caught on fire but I've checked both of mine several times & both are cool to the touch.

The box arrived in the regular brown box. The inside box was completely wrapped in black plastic for discretion.

But it says EXACTLY what it is: Orgasmate Katerina Power A\u2026\u201d Seems like they could use a barcode and scanner for more sensitive products. It\u2019s not really an issue in our house, but worth mentioning for anyone who has nosy roommates: Open the entire shipment in private.
The Orgasmate Katerina is larger than other products we\u2019ve purchased. The size seems consistent with what it is intended for, but do note that you will need to be creative with storage of her. Even though the size is large, it needs to be longer. My husband says it\u2019s kind of tease that it doesn\u2019t accommodate his full length--so it could be a positive and a negative all in one. When he did go further than halfway in, it bogged down a lot. Certainly, the option of being able to go deeper would be preferable.
The instruction manual shows a power button with separate mode and speed buttons. This device only has one button. There are 3 settings controlled with that one button, along with on/off (hold it down to turn it off). My husband prefers the middle setting of the three.
Ergonomically, the exterior shape is easy to hold for solo use or couple use. However, it is heavy after a while.
Husband says this is a good foreplay toy, but he wouldn\u2019t necessarily desire an entire session with it. He rates it at 4 stars as a couples toy and at 3 stars for a solo toy. 3.5 is not an option, so I\u2019m selecting 4.

Unfortunately, this large size performs slightly differently as I'll describe below.
There are 3 super large individually wrapped bath bombs in this set. All are large clouds with a smiley face on the package covering.
Each one is strongly fragrant when dry and lightly fragrant when in the bath. They also all have the same scent. The ingredients are sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, magnesium sulfate, water, cyclodextrin, PEG400, hydrogenated jojoba oil, hydrogenated grapeseed oil, butyrospermum parkii (shea butter) oil, natural essential oil, fragrance, and FDA approved colorants.
These are very, very large and fun. They perform well, produce a lovely rainbow of suds, and dissolve in about 10-15 minutes. The fragrance is subtle in the bath. However, there is one difference in the results (read on).
Since I personally do not like the color rings caused by bath bombs in my bath, I use them in a foot bath. When I was done, the color did not adhere to my foot bath but it turned both my feet pink and my drying towel. Note that the smaller bombs did not do this even though they are the same. Perhaps it is the extra profusion of color in such a large size. This is the only reason I rated this 4 instead of 5 stars.
The current cost of $ 19.99 for 3 bombs comes to a very expensive $6.66 per bomb. However, these are certainly way different from typical bath bombs. I like these very much but would have loved them if it did not color my feet and towels. Note that the color does wash off the towels in the laundry and in the shower for my feet.", "label": 1}

Nowhere in the product details, or within the product, is any comment on the specific upgrade. My examination of the massage tools found nothing extraordinary or innovative in the design or construction.
There is no enhancement to the gua sha, which does seem a bit thin. I will note that the massage roller has one feature found on better quality massage rollers.
The massage roller includes a metal collar where the metal axle meets the jade roller. While this is more of a cosmetic affect, it's still a nice visual design element. The jade stone rollers have excellent coloration. The rollers have decent polishing, retaining some natural feel but having a nice shine. The plastic grommet inserts are present, which facilitates a quiet and smooth rolling behavior. The inserts, acting as bearings, also protects the jade and the metal axles from erosive interaction. The massage roller is visually attractive, with good design elements and quality construction.
The gua sha, as mentioned before, is a bit thin. The jade composition has a coloration similar to the jade rollers, perhaps with a bit more lighter shades. The gua sha also has a decent polish, which retains some natural texture.
Priced at slightly under $13, the cost is appropriate for the quality of jade stone and design. Attached are photos to show real world images, with a ruler for size reference. Most of the photos confirm the rich coloration of the jade elements.
While I don't really 'see' the upgraded aspects (unless their previous version didn't have the plastic bearings, which would be a low quality product), this is still a very credible massage roller and gua sha set.

2X/DAY
- Very easy to open/close
- I like having the sides facing each other (as opposed to the previous version)
- Night and day sections can be removed from base to be used in two locations (separates by week)
- Cannot adjust start of the week (start day is Sunday)
- Not very portable
- Not practical to lift the entire item to pour out pills; makes more sense to pick pills out of container with fingers which might be a challenge for some
4X/DAY
- Not as easy to open/close; might be a challenge for someone with arthritis or other hand/finger issues
- Compartment lids get in the way when you\u2019re trying to fill with all open
- Very portable
- Can easily arrange to start on preferred day
- Separates by day (each day can be removed)
- Easy to remove pills from compartment (just open the lid and flip over)
Both appear to be high quality, and I anticipate they will last quite a while. I found the Bug Hull customer service to be excellent. I prefer the various symbols used to delineate each pill time rather than more specific times like on other products (more versatile). If you think you will have trouble opening the 4x/day and you don\u2019t need to worry about portability, I recommend the 2x/day for its easy opening/closing mechanism. You can always get 2 of these if you need 4x/day. However, if you need something that is portable, the 4x/day is perfect. Both of these have \u201clarge\u201d compartments, which appear to hold 8 to 9 large capsules or a similar mix of large and small. I only fill about 1/3 of a compartment with my 3 capsules and 4 medium to small pills.", "label": 1}

I wash with that, use a cotton pad (vs. a cotton ball, the pads for me are easier) to apply the Prep Refresher on my face and neck, and allow it to work -- I feel a tingling sensation that's mostly bearable (!) and when it subsides I apply aloe vera gel over my whole face, let that dry which it quickly does, then a moisturizer with SPF on top of it. I am so happy with this product and may go for a professional glycolic peel in a month if the deeper, darker scars are still apparent. I always get nervous too because with my Black skin I don't want to use a product that will cause more hyperpigmentation. I am going to call Cellbone to see if or when I should take a break from using this product or if it's safe enough to use everyday for an extended period of time. But overall I am completely happy with this product.

Like I have said many of times - PROBIOTICS are so important and definitely something you want in your health arsenal! So If I keep them in my arsenal I definitely want them in my kids arsenal as well! This does say for infants - but obviously they have to be able to take them - so they can't be that young.
I take probiotics for several reasons and for these same reasons I have my kids take probiotics:
1) The name "probiotics" literally comes from the greek term meaning "FOR LIFE" !!
2) To help with digestion
3) Helps the kiddos absorb the healthy stuff they eat throughout the day
4) Helps them fight infections and keeps them from getting infections (Much needed in daycare)
5) A Big Plus is it reverses the damage done by Anti-Biotics (so I ALWAYS have them take it if they have to take anti-biotics, which we avoid!)
6) Gives them the Immunity they need for everyday LIFE
7) Helps to Detoxify them, and is safe!
8) Promotes my babies health!
9) Helps to reduce allergies
10) Helps regulate their digestive tract!
So with all this said...Why wouldn't I take probiotics & have my children on them as well! I have the older kids in my life take this same brand but for kids. This one is for younger - but my infants cannot take them so we have to wait a bit!

(I drink 1-2 liters of that per day, for a dose of 1 or 2 tsp per day. I have had mild arthritis bothering me for many years (20+ years even though I'm only 49 now) in my hips. Before I started taking this, I had decided that I could no longer run because of my hips hurting. I think within a month all hip pain was gone and hasn't come back. I also have no spring allergies this year, which normally always bother me, sometimes quite a bit. TRY IT! The taste in the water is off-putting at first but I got used to it. I have also tried it in chicken broth, and I can put a whole tsp in a pint of warm homemade chicken broth without tasting it at all.
Update... have been using this for a year now. I added some salt and potassium (via LoSalt) and a little of ReMyte, and that makes it taste better. I do almost 2 liters of water, 1/2 tsp LoSalt, scant 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp ReMyte, and 2 tsp ReMag. This keeps leg cramps away. In a day, I'll drink at least half or up to all of this. If I don't take the magnesium, I get leg cramps at night. When I travel, I can substitute magnesium chloride tablets... a lot of them. This regimen has kept my former hip arthritis completely gone, helps me sleep, keeps the cramps away and I believe keeps me calmer. I like drinking my home-made \"mineral water\". It's water with a little substance to it.
However, I would think that after using this much ReMag for a year that my magnesium deficiency would be fixed, and that I should be able to go, say, a week without a magnesium supplement and not get leg cramps. But no. The cramps come back within a few days. I'd like to understand why.", "label": 1}

My family likes to mix our protein powder with all sorts of things (fruit, cinnamon, ground flax seeds, etc., and prefer to taste those ingredients vs. artificially flavored elements of protein powder). The protein grams/serving is pretty average (16G/3 TBLSPN).
Upon opening the package, I noticed there was no smell at all. That boded well for the powder having no taste. That was true \u2013 there was no taste at all. I blended this with half a banana, coconut milk, blueberries, and flax seeds.
It blended pretty well \u2013 there was no powder left on the sides of the nutribullet blending cup. The top of the smoothie was pretty \u2018frothy\u2019 \u2013 it happened two out of four times I used the powder. Not sure if it\u2019s because of the powder, but can\u2019t think of what else it could be because everything else is my standard ingredients for every single smoothie I make.
As for the texture, the powder seemed to be slightly gritty in the smoothie. It wasn\u2019t enough to make me not want to drink it, or to not buy it again, but I\u2019ve had powders that blend completely \u2013 to the point where you wouldn\u2019t know they were there at all. The second time I made a smoothie with the Wild Whey, I blended it for about 30 seconds longer than I usually would, just to make sure it fully blended the powder. It didn\u2019t seem to make a difference.
So the bottom line \u2013 4 stars because the protein grams/serving are slightly low, and the texture was a bit more gritty than I really like.
However, it is rare to find a high quality, truly grass-fed, non-GMO protein powder. When you look at the ingredients in most protein powders on the market they are full of additives and artificial ingredients. So kudos to Wild Whey for making a totally natural product that tastes good and is good for the body.

I don't really like straightening my hair or using a lot of heat on it BUT I generally wake up with an overall disheveled look and like the idea of just "brushing my hair" with a straightener. I was so excited when I got it yesterday and last night I plugged it in and brushed away! Unfortunately my excitement was short lived. when I got it, the packaging was fine...but then I saw the brush and the plastic was kind of like plastic you'd see on your kid's toy car... not the highest quality. Ok. I can look past that. It's not like it was $200...
I plugged it in and let it heat up. Immediately I did like the LCD display and that it has a F and C toggle for the temperature reading. There are buffer bristles if you will so you don't scald yourself. I never felt the heat directly on my head at any point.
Now, I did read the directions before I started use so I noticed that the included pamphlet says not to use the brush at the highest setting for more than 15 minutes or you will overheat it - con: it doesn't have a safety turn off or overheating feature. Also, when I started brushing, my hair would catch and pull... a good 20 hairs or so were sacrificed.
All in all I really didn't "get" the product. I felt like it was one of those things like an extra kitchen appliance, It's interesting to have but really just takes up space. The only major feature (which I'm still trying to decide if it's worth it or not) is it does work great for my bangs. They're short so they didn't get caught and they straightened my bangs beautifully, just not the rest of my hair.
I will say this as my final thought, I have long hair (almost down to my waist) and it's natural 99% straight and very healthy. If you're looking for hair on the product package (sleek and super straight) as advertised, you're not going to get it using this brush. That look comes from a flat iron. If you're looking for something that will help tame the frizzes and fly aways this product will work.

I have been surprised to learn there can be much variation regarding the reaction of dogs as well as with the actual functioning of clippers you might otherwise assume to be \u201cequal\u201d just by looking at them. I have also read some of the other reviews, and have slight disagreement with some.
If this is the first set of clippers you have ever tried, yes, you will be impressed, especially if your pet is not frightened by them. It is very nice to have the rotating fine-tuning adjustment, as that can be much more important than one might think. If your pet is receptive, you should be happy.
Having said that, there are a few observations I would submit. Other reviewers seem to hail this as relatively \u201cquiet.\u201d I disagree. I\u2019ve seen quieter. And this can make MUCH difference to the pet. It may be \u201cquiet\u201d enough, but I think my dogs are reacting more to the vibration as opposed to the noise level. The vibration here is as strong as I\u2019ve seen.
Another observation is that not much emphasis is placed on the importance of oiling the blades regularly. In VERY SMALL PRINT, the instructions do note that oiling is needed for maintenance. Apparently, some manufacturers assume the user will know this. But some amateurs will think it\u2019s no big deal; but it is a BIG deal. Here, the manufacturer informs that due to delivery restrictions they could not include oil, so you must buy your own. Oiling is CRITICAL to the proper functioning of this.
My limited use of this so far seems to suggest some extra effort may be needed for long-haired dogs with heavy coats, but I allow that may just be something I need to learn more about. Charging has not been a big issue for me. This is nice, but know that what YOU and YOUR PET need and like may be found either by investing in a more elaborate set of clippers OR by even finding out that a lower cost set might provide the ideal situation \u2013 including an even more quiet level.
As a separate issue, I will say this to the manufacturers, which applies to MANY products on the market today: PLEASE CONSIDER USING LARGER PRINT FOR INSTRUCTIONS! Older people - and even some younger people struggle with such small print. (I do not deduct for this, but it is tempting!).", "label": 1}

After a frustrating attempt to reconnect my scale several months ago, I had a few minutes the this morning and decide to try again. I thought something might have changed since Windows 10. I loaded the Fitbit app and then downloaded and ran the Fitbit connection utility. Fitbit has added the option not to use a router password so I can reconnect to my Guest network. I realize I may leave my scale open to be hacked but the link up went fine. I am glad that Fitbit has returned the link with no password to allow connection to my guest access point. I moved it up two stars for the ability to link and the nice Win 10 app. Fat measurements on scales seem to be difficult. I prefer the hand held models. The Fitbit scale's fat measurement doesn't seem to be reproducible or has a high standard error. Nevertheless you can get an indication of fat loss if plotted over time.
When I first got the scale the setup did not seem too difficult, but once the scale stopped syncing that was it. I have spent hours try to reconnect the scale and exchanging emails with tech support. This seems to be a company that is going backwards in product quality and design. It maybe that if you have the correct router (not an Apple Airport Extreme) this scale is no problem to link up, but I have not found that to be the case. Compared to the network capabilities of similarly functioning devices this is the worst product I have encountered. My Honeywell thermostat was a breeze to connect and reconnect. Fitbit did not think to design a direct connect with a USB cable to aid in setup, yet another example of poor product design. I recently returned my wrist monitor, after I got my first case of contact dermatitis from contact with the metal of that device.
Even if the scale can't connect, at least I have a scale that measures body fat and weight, right? The scale does not perform either of those functions at a level in line with its price. The % body fat measurement is inconsistent and rarely agrees with a hand held body fat measurement. The weight measurement is also inconsistent and appears to differ from other scales. I have not attempted a calibration weight on it but it is certainly not worth the price I paid for it. I have seen another wifi scale on the market and I think I will give it a try.", "label": 1}

Filled it to the stretching point with the luggage of six people so we could utilize all the seats in our SUV. The bag's footprint was a perfect fit for the cargo carrier. 1200 total miles over 10 days, no tears, no rips, no holes, no wet luggage.
Chose this set-up instead of a top carrier to avoid loss of MPG. We saw no discernible change to our gas mileage while using this product. Also having the luggage at this level made accessing individual items much easier and we avoided the need to lift heavy luggage over our heads. There is no specific way to lock this bag, but since it is soft sided a thief could just as easily cut it open with a utility knife. Let vigilance be your security.
Heavy duty zipper accepted the punishment of the bag being overfilled, but did not break or separate. The top flap design overlapped the zipper and sturdy velcro held it in place. We made certain that the zipper and flap faced to the rear so water from the tires would not splash up into it, which is the only way water might end up in the bag. Drove through a lot of rain and water on the road, everything stayed nice and dry.
Tie down straps looked odd and a little small at first, but once we read the instruction and put them in place, they were sturdy and more than up the task. I suppose if the cargo weighed a lot more than the carrier should hold and your driving was more erratic than the law allows you could force it to shift and bounce around to the point that straps might not hold it. Otherwise the tie down straps do the job. When adjusted they do leave a long strap 'tail' to blow in the wind. Learn to tie the tails down to avoid them slapping around.
Bag is sturdy, but if you fold it back up the way it was originally shipped, it takes up very little storage space.", "label": 1}

The idea is that our ancestors never had a commode / toilet to use the bathroom in/ on. Or forefathers always just squat down to do their business, therefore our bodies are made to expel in that fashion.
The Sri and Squat Foot Stool allows the body to get in a squatting position while still being able to sit on and use the toilet. It's somehow lines up your intestines: and everything so all your business comes out very easily with no struggle. It basically unties are inside to make going to the bathroom very simple.
This comes in 3 pieces and they interconnect to become one stool. The middle is a curved item that fits along the neck of your commode and then there is a your stool or your feet on either side. Simply place the S&S Stool against your potty,put your feet up, and go.
I take some pain medication for my bad back and that can REALLY give some issues with regularity. I have trouble going sometime and have been interested in trying one of these.
So, fast forward to after I put this together and installed it - which is super easy and requires no tools. They fit together like 3 puzzle pieces really easily. Then, the first time I used it, I barely had to strain. If at all. Such a bizarre feeling. Dropping a deuce has been a very difficult thing for me for quite some time because of the pain pills.

I Go predictably almost every morning now , & I have no if use with regularity . I rarely even take any stool softeners or laxatives.

Then one of their class mates has a new arrival \u2013 a baby brother and he relays that life is now the pits for him, worse still he stops coming to school and no one knows why. Then Nicolas overhears his parents talking of a visit and they say he must be gotten out of the way. He now knows that not only will he be getting a baby brother but that they are going to dump him; possibly in the woods as the urban myths have it.
So he sets out on a charm offensive and all his school chums are going to help \u2013 badly that is. As his demise gets closer their plans become ever more urgent and funny.
This is set in the sixties and just oozes style and charm in equal dollops. The clothes the cars the primary colours and lack of office technology and casual sexism are all just brilliant, well maybe not the sexism. The acting is superb with a cast of kids that are all brilliant, entertaining and funny in all the right places. This is laugh out loud at times too and had me wanting more. Sandrine Kiberlain as their teacher deserves special mention as she is really good and well rounded as always. She is also in the ruddy excellent \u2018The Women on the sixth floor\u2019.
This is also one for the whole family as kids will definitely get it too. This tells the story and the reasons they do things all from a child\u2019s perspective and the collective naivety that can come from kid group decicions, which is just great. So for a refreshing warm, family comedy in France based sixties, you need look no further - really warmly recommended.", "label": 1}

A few notes: I am not going to regurgitate the product description or specs on this page. I will give my impression and highlights that led me to give this five stars. Also, mine shipped with an included tape measure, which was not mentioned in the description at the time of this review. It's actually a high quality one that has an auto-retract mechanism that adds even more value to this set.
I test a lot of scales so I have standard weights that are used for calibration, and in this case comparison. My approach is to use different weights, then repeat the weighing. There was no deviation among the results from all tests.
In addition I also performed the same tests using a different scale and received the same results. My conclusion is this is accurate per the product description right out of the box.
You can switch among pounds, kilograms and stones by pressing a button on the underside of the scale. Plus this is accurate to one decimal place (in .2 increments), so you can see detailed results if you are battling the pounds (or kilos or stones), as well as weigh objects.
A few things that I especially like about this scale are the large display, which is a big deal at my age, and the blue lit background. I also like the fact that it will come alive as soon as I step on it and give me the bad or good news after a few second lag, and will go back to sleep shortly after I step off of it.
Among the scales that I have tested this one stands out in ease of use, display quality and accuracy. It's heavy and well made, and the fifteen dollar price tag at the time of this review makes it an incredible bargain. If you could see one in person you'd be as impressed as I am.", "label": 1}

Review begins:
And let me explain why I say this.
\\
1. It is a lighter color and taste than any other EVOO I have bought in the past. The taste is light and fruity, but it is not, in my opinion, what an Extra Virgin Olive Oil (or EVOO) should be like. I have used it on salad, to dip bread in, and in sauces and it just does not impress me, not for the price.
2. It is packaged in plastic. HDPE #2, but still plastic. What is the sense of having sustainable olives used to make this, and then package it in something that will end up in a landfill for 10,000 years? HDPE #2 is recyclable, but on average, only 35% of it gets recycled in the USA. I decanted mine to a green glass bottle with a pourer.
#3 You really should consider decanting this to another bottle. If you pour it out of this bottle, it has a tendency to slop.
#4. This really seems more like a pure olive oil, or this was a 2nd pressing, not a 1st pressing. Granted, this was sourced from Italy and then bottled in the USA and it may have lost something in the shipping, but I honestly do not think this was 1st pressing. For one, it does not indicate that and two, it seems too light to be 1st Pressing EVOO.
#5 For the amount and quality, the price seems too high. This is 16 ounces or 1 fluid pint.
So all in all, while I still give it 4 stars, I will be glad when it is finished up, and we go back to what we have been using. Sorry guys, but this is NOT a top Extra Virgin Olive Oil, in my opinion.

But over the years, that plush has definitely lost its fluff and volume, so it was time to find an alternative.
The Purple cushion came in a nice over box with the cushion and its case, along with best use and cleaning instructions. It was easy to fit the cushion in the case- less than 10 second set up. It had a very strong, plastic-y smell, but it seems to have dissipated after a few days of airing out, and you go nose-blind to it pretty quickly. (If you're planning to use this in the office or in a car, have it air out a few days at home first).
I've seen a few complaints of people saying the cushion slides forward in use, but I personally have not encountered that issue with my vinyl/leather-esque chair.
As for the actual use, it's Absurdly comfortable. I am a heavy person, frequently in my desk chair all day but for bathroom and eating breaks. My tailbone and other sitting parts used to ache after too long in the chair, but I have never felt more comfortable or less aching after a long desk day.
Even sitting in strange positions (criss cross, foot in the crook of the knee, etc) is more comfortable now, which means the world to me when I constantly sit in weird positions.
My only concerns for people would be the smell (solvable by a few days airing out) the thickness (it's very thick and could limit armrest access in chairs without adjustable armrest heights) and the size (it's very big- I use it in a standard size gamer chair, which fits it nicely, but it weighs a little bit and is the size of like a big sack of rice). But for a heavy person with a proper sized chair, it'll work great! So far, it's worth the price.", "label": 1}

I like the design of the bottle especially the detachable shaker part attached to the cap; it makes it really easy to clean which is really important for protein drinks and smoothies.
Every morning I make a meal replacement drink (Amazing Meals Vanilla Chai) and a fruit and veggie smoothie with my Nutribullet. I originally bought this to store my meal replacement drink to drink it for lunch, but since I put pureed pumpkin and ground oatmeal in addition to the meal replacement powder, no amount of shaking would make it as smooth as I needed it to be (aka Nutribullet smooth). So I switched up my routine to have my meal replacement as breakfast and the fruit and veggie smoothie I now drink throughout the day as a snack to keep me going until dinner. I put the fruit and veggie smoothie into my cyclone cup. It usually separates within an hour with the roughage floating to the top. A couple good shakes in this bottle and everything is all smooth again. I did use the cyclone cup when I made a mini meal replacement with just the meal replacement powder and milk and the cyclone cup blended it up perfectly. It was as smooth as could be expected with that type of grainy meal replacement. The only other shaker bottle I have used was the blender bottle and I like this one much better except that the cyclone cup is a bit small.
The cyclone cup comes with a detachable bottom cup like container. I originally put my protein powder in there and put the milk in the bottle to keep it separated until I was ready to drink it because I find that this meal replacement gets thicker as it sits. When I unscrewed the bottom compartment it was a MESS. There was powder everywhere at my desk, but honestly it was to be expected just by looking at it, so that was mostly my fault. The next day I tried to just put some of my supplements and vitamin pills in it, but every time I shook the bottle it was like playing maracas and I got some annoyed glances from some of my co-workers :) I have now just completely detached the bottom part and travel with just the bottle which is okay because its smaller size fits in a lot more places. It has not spilled, leaked, or anything like that. Overall it is a great product and it has been a great addition to my new healthy lifestyle!", "label": 1}

The idea of it being able to adjust the stopping distance was a plus for me. It shipped fast and package well, instructions are minimal and explained well, I followed the setup by the book and each and every time it would not work right, it would not give the Green yellow red light properly. You have to reset it each time, I sent out questions to the seller and never received any answer but received a few from other buyers with the same problem. (Look in question and see them) so after days of reading and research on sensors I figured maybe I\u2019ll build a better parking Assistant since I have a nice LED light. I decided to remove the two screws on the back of the sensor using a Allen wrench this is the the part you aligned with your bumper and has two little cones in the front which are, one of them is a transmitter, the other a receiver. The two screws I removed held on the front plastic cover around the cones. My idea was to get the model number so I could purchase a better quality item. Then I got thinking let\u2019s try it without the front cover I noticed the cones are recessed way back into the cover and maybe it might interfere? I put the battery\u2019s back in mounted were I had it and YEP it Works and Works Fantastic!
If you own this unit and want to make it work remove the front cover from the sensors by removing two Allen screws from the back side.
My Notes to the Seller/Manufacturer.

I use tea tree oil for a few different things, but I do warn that this is not an essential oil that would be good for the average person to use for any kind of aromatherapy. It does have a very strong smell that is not pleasant to everyone, I know some members of my household do not like the smell at all, and it doesn't bother me because I have been using it for a couple of years now. It is an acquired taste so to speak...
That being said it does smell exactly how it should and how other products that I have purchased or reviewed in the past have smelled. The odor is strong and vibrant, it might make your eyes water if not diluted in carrier oils or products so I highly recommend that you do this until you are totally use to it or sure that you want to continue using it. It can be used to make household green cleaning recipes which I haven't used it much for yet. What I use it for is beauty recipes for acne such as a foaming face cleanser and an oil mixture moisturizer. My other most important use is for treating my scalp for dandruff and scalp itch. I make recipes of hair oil treatments or shampoos using it mixed with carrier products but when my itch or dandruff gets really bad I use it straight on my scalp. Do allergy test before trying this to make sure you don't have a reaction as this is an essential oil that should be mixed with a carrier product/oil when using because of how strong it is. This doesn't cure my condition but rather helps me keep it tolerable and I really depend on tea tree oils for this! I've used this product multiple times and it works just as I expect it should if it is a true pure natural essential oil and not mixed with anything or a synthetic fake.
It comes in a brown glass bottle with a regular lid for shipping and storage. Depending on your usage needs it also comes with a glass dropper attached to a plastic and rubber lid that you can exchange for the plain lid if you would like.", "label": 1}

This set comes with six 10mL bottles of essential oil mixtures. The company states that while these mixtures are not diluted, they can still be applied directly to the skin. If you have sensitive skin, and carrier oil might not be a bad idea to incorporate, though.
I could not find the exact oils used in each bottle listed on the product page, but they are on the back of each bottle, so I will list them here:
Good Night Blend: ylang ylang, neroli, sandlewood, mandarin, and Roman chamomile (this is my personal favorite)
Deep Muscle Relief: rosemary, eucalyptus, and black pepper (this one smells like Icy Hot to me)
Health Shield: lavender, orange, bergamot, and ylang-ylang
Breathe Blend: lavender, ylang-ylang, and bergamot
Head Ease Blend: orange, lemon, peppermint, spearmint, geranium, ginger, and fennel
Stress Relief Blend: orange, lemon, peppermint, spearmint, geranium, ginger, and fennel (same ingredients as Head Ease Blend, but they are in different volumes, which gives this a completely different scent.
These oil blends absorb quickly when applied directly to the skin, and the scent stays around for a decent amount of time. I plan on adding a few drops of the Stress Relief or Good Night blend to a bath, after reading that as one of the suggested uses for these oils. Would recommend these to anyone starting off their essential oils collection.

Goodness gracious you people live with this kind of cold?! I bought us heated blankets, but you're not supposed to bring those into bed. I found this heated mattress pad and bought it even though I initially thought it was kind of expensive. Oh my goodness it is Worth It. 100% Worth It. Nothing is better than turning it on to pre-heat the bed while you get ready to go to sleep and then coming to bed and sliding between the nice, toasty covers, warming your freezing, weary bones before you turn the temperature down to something you can sleep the night through without being too warm. The biggest challenge is finding the motivation to slide out of the nice, still heated bed in the morning and face the crisp bedroom air to start your day.
The other comments are correct, the place that the power cord attaches to the mattress pad is at the same level as your feet. Just scootch more towards the middle of the bed and it won't be a problem, or pull the mattress pad farther down on your bed so it curves around it a little bit. It's really not that big a deal to me. The power cord is plenty long, so even though it attaches at the foot of the bed, the cord will reach all the way up to the head of the bed to plug in if that's where your outlet is located.
It does take a while to heat up, so I would definitely recommend pre-heating it before you climb into bed, but once it's preheated it's delightful. It is a more gentle heat than the heated blankets that we use, so bear that in mind.
Oh, I guess I should also add, the only downside is that the display light is really bright blue and a little blinding in the middle of the night, and the white lights for each of the three buttons are really bright, but we keep them covered up with a cloth so that they don't bother us and that works just fine.
I don't know if this heated mattress pad is the best ever because it's the only one that I've owned, but we're starting our second winter in Massachusetts and I can definitely say that I'm one happy customer knowing that I get to go to a nice warm bed every night.", "label": 1}

While I know that these powders are sold by weight, not volume, I was a bit surprised to see that the vanilla version took up a fair bit less volume. I\u2019m not sure if the vanilla powder is heavier or if it was somehow more compressed.
So this product is meant to be a meal replacement and not purely a protein powder, so it has a lot more going on than what a typical protein powder might have. In addition to protein, it has a lot of vitamins and minerals and a lot of fiber. Flavor-wise, it\u2019s OK. It\u2019s got some chocolate flavor, and the sweetness isn\u2019t off-putting. I\u2019ve tried protein powders that were strong with the stevia, which is a sweetener that I don\u2019t really like. This contains some of that too, but it also has cane sugar. I\u2019ve certainly tried far less palatable protein/meal replacement powders. I\u2019d probably rank this high up the list, though that isn\u2019t necessarily saying a lot if you\u2019re coming from never having tried these sorts of things to consuming a lot of them and just getting used to the not-very-good flavors. This does have some grittiness, though I make my drinks the night before, which allows for the powder to hydrate well. Also, given that this has more in it than protein powder, the grittiness should be expected. For example, this has a variety of ground of seeds, which is why it has so much fiber.
In comparison to the vanilla flavor, this has slightly less calories, but it has slightly more sodium, more fiber, and more potassium, so there is some difference between these beyond simply the flavors.
I\u2019m not really keen on the fact that this is $37, is in a huge tub, but only has 15 servings. Granted, these sorts of products are all kind of pricey, so this isn\u2019t overly so. The biggest negative for me is the amount of sodium this contains. There are 480mg of sodium per serving. I\u2019d be a lot happier with this if it had maybe half that.", "label": 1}

The bottom massager is more pointy than smooth which for me, is the only sometimes negative aspect to this depending on how sensitive my feet are at the time. My husband who has Plantar Fasciitis loves the pointy bits.
The bottom rollers are big enough to cover the entire foot, including my husband's size 10 feet. Not all foot massagers are designed this way. Around the same time I ordered this, I also ordered a soft & plush foot rest style massager. It has massage rollers that are smaller, so it doesn't cover the entire foot but the rollers are smooth. No compression, but you can slide your feet into a little plush cave that is removable. That massager is about $100 less than this massager.
If I had to pick between the two, I'd pick this massager by Sharper Image. It is the best massager I've ever owned & I've owned quite a few over the years thanks to my husbands Plantar Fasciitis. This doesn't mean I don't love the other massager. I love them both. The other is more cozy time relaxing, this on the other hand while very relaxing, also offers much more therapeutic benefits. Even though massager means business, I will still fall into a light doze while using it.
This also has a heat function. It doesn't get very warm, but it is still nice; never too hot.
As advertised, you can flip this over for a vibrating foot rest. Personally, I really enjoy the versatility.
If you want something that looks nice, need some serious foot TLC, & can afford it, I see no reason why you wouldn't consider getting this. If you do want it & it's out of your price range (oh how I know that feeling I'm a full time Eco farmer), put it in your carts save for later & wait & hopefully a deal rolls around or you accumulate enough points on your amazon visa to get it free.
If this sounds like more massage action than you really need or want, you may want to check out the other foot massager I mentioned. Remember though, it doesn't cover the entire foot bed. I adjust my feet when I use it to get the rollers where I want them. Link: smile.amazon.com/dp/B09P4P3DB6

She had been bothered by excessive wax in her ears and has been inspecting her ears nonstop since she commandeered it (washing the removable tips between uses, obviously).
She really did need help getting the wax out of her ears, apparently, as the camera revealed a veritable wall of wax blocking both of her eardrums, which would have taken her a lot longer to figure out without this handy thing.
In addition to the ear pick itself, the device comes with a small vial of reusable plastic tips and six long metal sticks with various scooped, spoonlike tips and even one that looks like a tiny whisk. These are also for cleaning your ears but they don\u2019t attach to the device.
The ear pick came with a partial charge, so it was operable right out of the box. First you download the free app as instructed in the manual, then press the button to power on the ear camera. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth, go to wi-fi settings, and look for the network titled \u201cAisee\u201d (this might be different for you; refer to your instruction manual for the name to look for).
I don\u2019t really understand the technology behind it, but I guess the device is its own little hot spot? I say that because you connect your phone to it as if it were a wi-fi connection, and then you have direct access to the camera inside. The image is reasonably clear and there\u2019s a very bright light at the tip to illuminate where you\u2019re going inside your ear. You can dig around in your ear without any help, because you can see what you\u2019re doing right from your phone.
My niece quickly determined that her ears needed professional care and went to the doctor to get them flushed out. Her doctor did not recommend she continue using this device due to its potential to scratch the ear canal or puncture the eardrum. However, it did prove extremely useful in revealing what was really going on with my niece's ears, and it seems safe enough to use if you\u2019re careful not to explore too deep into your ear canal. But do be aware that this device could either save you a trip to the doctor or, if used incorrectly, cause you one.
All in all, I recommend this highly with a caveat to take proper care when using.", "label": 1}

It is amazing, and I always make sure I have a bottle ready for me. I keep mine in the kitchen, so I can quickly make it myself (or even have my kids or husband rush to the rescue).
I usually mix it with about 1-2 ounces of water, although I have also dumped it into whatever drink was quickly available, when I couldn't get to water quickly. This remedy is on my travel checklist, as leg cramps are common for me when I am sleeping away from home. I try to always keep a full bottle in the cupboard, so I never run out. I am glad to see this special deal for multiple bottles.
I am plaqued with terrifying leg cramps, unlike the "charlie horse" leg cramps I used to get as a teenager. They often wake me from sleep, but can also strike me when I am awake. My toes will seize up, and start curling backward, or there will be a burning cramp that rushes up the front of my calf and inside of my thigh. I have to jump up immediately, or they will paralyze me in my seat. There are times when I literally can not get my foot off the floor, to get to the kitchen for my "leg cramp stuff" (that's what my family calls it... LOL!)
It might be due to my varicose veins, but nothing my doctors have suggested has worked. I gave an empty bottle to the doctor who treats my varicose veins, and now he stocks it on his shelves at his office! Amazing stuff. My mother also relies on it, as it works for her similar issues.
The one thing I will warn you about, is the taste. It does have a yucky taste (like vinegar), and especially when you get down near the bottom of the bottle. Make sure you shake the bottle before use, and just don't pay attention to those strange floaty shadows in the bottle, as you are using the last of the formula.
I have tried drinking this straight from the bottle, but because I also suffer from peptic ulcers, it burned and made me double over in pain (while waiting for relief from the cramps). I am 41 years old and at a healthy weight.", "label": 1}

It really helps to mask the noise of cars driving through the neighborhood. Since I have the music or whatever on a timer I generally use these for a couple of hours at a time. I generally charge them every two or three days which is just fine. I don't think I've ever run out of battery. They're comfortable and easily size adjusted with the Velcro/elastic straps. Light is 99% blocked; only a tiny bit is visible right around the flare of my nostrils. I don't even notice unless I'm looking for it. Sound is fine. These aren't high-end headphones, and I didn't expect them to be. Probably on a par with an old transistor radio you used to listen to the ballgame on while sitting on the back porch. (If that's unfamiliar sounding to you, that's an unfortunate loss on your part.)
To improve this, I can only really think of three small things: 1. Put something like fake fur along the lower border so that the curves will be cushioned and the tiny light leaks will be absorbed. 2. Make the pockets for the speakers smaller so they don't have as much room to shift around. They generally stay put but sometimes will shift around a bit. 3. Move the charging port to someplace besides the front eye. Granted, this is more stylistic than anything else, but it would look much cleaner without the tan piece of leather. At least maybe color it black. (3a. Consider also changing the layout of the buttons to be more readily identified by touch. The on/off/pairing button in the middle is fine but the volume up and down on either side are about five millimeters away and don't have any easy means of location unless you know exactly what you want to do.)

The reason I've had so many is because they do not last forever. Whether it's the dripping of water and toothpaste into the connections of the casing or just plain electronic natural death, they all seem to die. I liked my first Sonicare a lot, it did a great job on my teeth, but it died after about a year. I replaced it with another Sonicare, and then it too passed away. The Oral-B still works, but it runs on an AA battery and doesn't have the cleaning power of Sonicare. The LeBond and Sonicare share a design flaw in that they placed power and mode buttons low on the handle, which means your fingers will accidentally change the mode or speed while using the brush.
This HIEIE model solved that problem by putting the power and mode buttons higher up the handle, so no more unwanted power and mode changes (see my posted photo). I like almost everything about the HIEIE brush ... low price, high-speed brushing, relatively soft bristles, five different brushing modes, it comes with a replacement brush head, and the recharging pad is smaller and easier to use than the one that came with my LeBond brush.
I only have one minor quibble with the HIEIE -- the little instruction manual has perhaps the worst Chinese-to-English translations I've ever seen. It's actually kind of funny. Examples: \"Do not pull brushing of your toothbrush to avoid deformation and falling off ... we suggest you brushing your tooth twice a day ... we suggest you changing the head of your toothbrushevery three months.\"
I got the black HIEIE toothbrush, after always having white models previously. I now wish I had gotten white again. You're trying to have white teeth, and although the brush color doesn't make a whit of difference in functionality, black just seems to send the wrong message to your mouth. I know, it's silly.
If the HIEIE lasts two years or more, it will rank as my favorite electric toothbrush ever.", "label": 1}

First of all, I am impressed with the fact that the curling iron is longer than most because you can get longer hair and wrap it around the wand without that being a problem. I don't have particularly long hair, so it's not an issue for me, but it might matter to some people. Also, take a few minutes to get to know how this thing works because it's confusing at first. The directions don't explain everything. When you plug in the curling iron, you have to press the power button to unlock it, and then you press it again to actually get the heat to set. There is a display and it automatically wants to set on a certain heating (180\u00b0c). It climbs very quickly and then stops when it gets there. What I was confused about is there's a little display that says \"damaged\". I didn't know if this meant the wand was damaged? Would this setting potentially damage my hair? I didn't know, and the directions don't say anything about it. I pressed the power button again to unlock it, and then pressed downwards to reduce the heat until all of a sudden it says \"fragile\" in the display window. So I see now I should use it on that setting since I do have fragile hair. I now understand the damaged setting should be safe for damaged hair, and after pressing the button to heighten the temp, there is a setting for \"healthy\" hair. I will say it heats quickly, and it grips your hair very well. I've had curling irons before where the grip wasn't so good and your hair wants to slip out. This curling iron does not do that and holds your hair in place. Even thin hair. The end tip stays cool so you can grasp it and help control your curling iron from end to end. There is also an automatic 60 minute setting in case you forget to turn off the iron. It will shut itself off. I would recommend this product, but gave 4 stars due to the poor instruction manual.", "label": 1}

This is a unique product, and the first time that I\u2019ve seen things like this (domestically anyway). I decided to give them a try and for the most part, am pretty pleased with them.
Comfort-wise, they\u2019re pretty decent but you may need to get used to them as they may feel out of place initially. You also will need to get used to and walk/move around in way that keeps the corrector in place as it has a tendency to slip out if you move your toes a lot while walking. Also, if you have somewhat of a more extreme case of bunions, it may actually be a bit painful with all that pressure on your toes at the beginning. You may want to ease into it based on the level of discomfort that you experience.
Depending on the severity of your bunions, this actually may be a bit too small (in terms of displacement) for you. I am a moderate case and even then, I kind of wish that they were a bit thicker as it really doesn\u2019t push far enough for me. Being thicker would also help keep them in place better in my opinion.
Once you get used to these, they seem to work well. Obviously, the results won\u2019t be immediately apparent, but I can feel them beginning to apply outward pressure when moving around (and bending my toes).
THE GOOD:
\u2022 High quality gel material
\u2022 Comfortable for the most part
\u2022 Tacky surface keeps them in place
\u2022 Unique product, not many others like it
THE BAD:
\u2022 May be uncomfortable while adjusting to it
\u2022 May be too small (thin) for some depending on your severity
\u2022 Until you learn how to walk with them, they may pop out or shift around

After a few years of using a very good electric, I'm thinking I should've gotten this three years sooner. I've rented before, this is my first one. (I got this from the listed mfr., before it was listed here.)
It got here in three days, beautifully packed (injected foam surrounds the main unit), and it is a Cat 5 tornado in a backpack, at a pretty good price. (Local, $330, + $10 for oil 6-pack, + tax. This a very good buy.)
The tubes are a snug fit --- plan on using a little lube to fit the end pipes on, as recommended in the manual. Don't be shy priming, especially on the first run. Runs great, idles smoothly, and it cleans things up amazingly well. I'd say at idle it runs close to the 2/3 point of the top-rated electric handheld. (At some point I'll use Kestrel to measure things, just for the fun of it.)
I opted for the tube-mounted trigger throttle, and find it very, very easy to use. The off/idle/throttle slider lets you set your own back-off speed (from the trigger) and acts as a cruise control. Very low-fatigue. It's pretty \"tight\" --- no gas smell in garage storage.
If you can handle about 21 lbs. on your back, this is pretty easy going --- but don't expect to squeeze into tight spaces in shrubbery without a spotter (branches on muffler!).
According to the manual it can be used for snow-blowing, something I've never tried with a blower. Can't wait.
This is the top-rated unit in its class, according to that well-known site and magazine. I can see why.
So, how easy is this to use, really?

But that's also where one of their drawbacks becomes apparent. When my slippers arrived I made sure to fully charge their battery packs & then settled down to enjoy their heat. Turning on the TV, I tilted back in my recliner to enjoy the evening. Now, I don't know about you, but when I lie back in the recliner I often cross my legs at the ankles. Doing that, the on/off button that is normally on the outside of each foot ends up pressed against the other slipper's on/off button. And yes, I didn't even notice it until I felt like my toasty toes weren't being toasted so much anymore. The slight shifting I'd done in my chair had turned my 'high' setting down to 'medium' on one foot & to 'low' on the other. It's a minor thing, but I wish there was some way to set the on/off button switch so it can't accidentally be changed by such a minor bumping.
My other minor quibble is with the relative 'run' time of the batteries. I like toasty feet and at the highest heat setting the instructions say I shouldn't really expect more than 2-2\u00bd hours of use. If I'm in front of the TV for a marathon binge I can certainly spend more than 2\u00bd hours in one evening.
Now, with that info, I explored Amazon to see if there were any questions about ordering replacement or supplemental battery packs. No questions, but a search for 'Kamlif battery' brought up just the 2-pack spare batteries that I was hoping for. As I write this they sell for $26.99. I ordered a set just so I can relax knowing that if/when one set runs down, I can replace them immediately with the back-up set.
With those slight drawbacks known, I can wholeheartedly recommend these slippers if you suffer from chronic cold feet.", "label": 1}

I was told I could bring in my own chair, but I don\u2019t have the funds for this at the moment., Buying the Purple cushion was the quick solution. I may still buy a chair in the future, but now I can hold off for a while.
As for the Purple cushion, for what it is and what I\u2019m using it for is helping my pain substantially. Purple appears to have 4 different options for seat cushions. They have one with 3 different thicknesses all the way to 4 inches, much like their mattresses. Then there\u2019s this one\u2026 the main difference I see with the \u201cRoyal Purple\u201d are the rounded edges on the cushion. Based on this and the 2 inch thickness, I opted for the Royal. I wanted something thicker than their cheapest offering, but not so thick that it would interfere with the feel of the chair and hight of the armrests.
After trying this cushion in a few locations other than my office chair, I can say that it feels/works best on hard surfaces. Putting a cushion on top of another cushion feels\u2026.. odd\u2026.. like it\u2019s not suppose to be there\u2026 to put it simply. You might say if feels slightly unstable in a way. But I\u2019ll take the awkwardness over back pain. I do wish the cushion was about 2 inches wider in both length and width. This would fit me and my chair a bit better and lessen the awkward/unstable feel.
Purple needs to collaborate with one of the higher end office chair manufactures like Herman Miller, HON, Steelcase, etc and come out with a purpose built Purple office chair. Tempur-Pedicure did this once, and sadly, I can\u2019t find this chair any more.

I quit smoking and gained 30 lbs. I instantly went on a starvation Slim Fast diet, and lost 10 lbs. So 205 w/HBP(140+/-,90+/-) and "middle age gut" for 20 years. In 2012 I retired, and weight came down another 10 lbs to 195. Still HBP, but borderline high. I was not able to get below 195# for 20 yrs after quitting smoking until 2 days ago using Pruvin. Since starting Pruvin, I've eaten potato chips, Triscuits, some TV dinners, lots of apples, oranges, bananas, broccoli, and Greek yogurt. Just the kind of stuff I normally eat. My BP this morning was 114/72 P75. It was 125/89 P92 when I started Pruvin. (I'm still using the Rx diuretic started in the '90s). What I am reporting here is totally 100% anecdotal, no claims about Pruvin; just statistics for you to decide.
Pruvin's taste needs improvement. I add only 3oz of water, stir for 2 minutes to get most of the CO2 out, take a good breath, and breathe out while swallowing. . Because it's mildly acidic, I swish around and swallow some alkaline Essentia water (Amazon) to neutralize the acid. Baking Soda works for that, too (don't swallow). So the taste part is over in about 2 minutes.
Since starting proven I've lost 6 lbs in 2 weeks, my BP has dropped enough that I could stop my BP Rx today, but I will wait on that until I drop 4 more lbs to finally reach the weight I was way back in my mid-20s.", "label": 1}

(I wish I had) One ingredient of concern is Evening Primrose Oil! This ingredient has contraindications with certain disorders and medications. From what I read : Evening primrose oil should not be taken if you have a history of seizures or schizophrenia- there have been reports of increased seizure activity when taking evening primrose oil. There have been drug interactions with evening primrose oil and anti-convulsants. I also read that there have been interactions with several psychiatric medications. I found anecdotal reports of increased risk of mania in bipolar disorder.
As always consult your doctor (and do your own research) before taking anything new. It also contains the following ingredients: Evening primrose oil, Black Currant Oil, Pumpkin seed Oil, Canola Oil, and Flax seed. If you've already researched omegas in general you already know that any omega 3's are a blood thinner.
NOTE to VEGETARIANS and Vegans- I can see how this might possibly be a good alternative source for omegas for people who do not eat fish, however it does contain gelatin without specifying if the gelatin is from an animal source.
ALLERGIES- although it does NOT contain yeast, wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, or shellfish, it IS produced in a facility that processes other ingredients containing these allergens.
If the ingredients are safe for you to take, I encourage you to also read other reviews before purchasing so that you are aware of the type of Omega 3's in this compared to other options, to be sure this product meets your needs. And when comparing products for the sake of price you need to compare the numbers on the supplement facts and the serving size to do an accurate comparison, don't just look at price and number of gels.

It was $300, came with a 30-day guarantee, so it felt relatively low risk.
Background, I snore, and have mild sleep apnea. I tried a few devices, first a mouth guard, then a chin strap, and neither worked. The mouth guard helped but left me with a sore jaw, and the chin strap just made me look like a tool.
I immediately noticed a difference after the first night. I've run a few experiments, using it, and not using it. It's pretty conclusive, when I do not use the Smart Nora, my wife will wake me up from snoring.
The Smart Nora doesn't stop you from snoring, and instead gently adjusts your head to re-engage your soft palette muscles. It has an ambient noise sensor, and triggers when the noise reaches a certain threshold. The adjustments work by inflating a small baffle which changes the shape of your pillow, then slowly deflating it returning your head back to the previous position.
As a user you can configure both the noise sensitivity threshold, and set three levels for adjustment. There is also a delay timer which will start the Smart Nora after 30 minutes.
Over all the product feels well made, and comes self contained in a traveling case.
It was easy to setup and get started using, and the supplied cables are all plenty long.
For downsides, there are a couple:
The baffle has a tendency to get shifted on the pillow. I've tried with both the cloth cover, and without, and it will often shift towards the back. If there was a way to secure it to the pillow, it would be perfect.
Second, as noted, there are a few cables: power cable, the air hose which attaches to the baffle, and a USB charging cable. It can add unnecessary clutter next to your bed.
Overall, if you are looking for alleviate snoring, either for yourself, or any adult who shares your bed, this product works wonders.
Finally, it should be noted that this is not a cure nor is it treatment for sleep apnea. You should seek out your doctor for options on how to best deal with Sleep Apnea.
For snoring, I don't know if there is a better alternative than the Sleep Nora", "label": 1}

It does provide a deep shine on a black car and it's application is very easy. Wax On and wax off. But seriously the application is indeed easy, no need to buff. Just spread a thin layer with the applicator sponge, then after about 30 seconds or less, follow it up with the microfiber cloth to remove it. That's it. No elbow grease necessary.
Now for better shine, I would clay the car before applying the wax. Claying is also very easy thing to do and you only have to do it once or twice a year.
So anyhow here is my procedure of doing things.
1) grab a plastic baggy and place your finger in it, then rub your finger across the paint. If you feel any bumps then clay the car before waxing.
2) Do a quick wash of the car, no buffing, high pressure wash and rinse.
3) Spray Iron-X all over the car, let it stand for 4 minutes (don't let it dry). This will remove any micro metalic particles that might have inbeded in the paint while driving (break dust from other cars etc).
4) perform a good water rinse of the car (with water)
5) Clay the car
6) Perform a good wash now (with cloth, etc)
7)Apply Extreme Shield Wax.
The only negative thing of the shield wax is that it does not last too long. It will last at most 2 months or 2 mechanical car washes.
Also, IT\"S NOT A WAX! It's a Sealant. I would recommend that folks read differences between the two at autogeek dot net

I had heard about the benefits of magnesium, but the cardiologist told me, and I quote: \"Sure, I always recommend magnesium to my patients, but magnesium won't stop your A-fib.\" Well, neither did the two heart drugs that she tried, and I'm pretty sure she wasn't recommending cell ready liquid magnesium to her patients. I was getting pretty discouraged and panicky. I felt all along that A-fib wasn't the big deal that well paid doctors here were trying to tell me it was, so I began to research this in earnest, and that's how I came across Dr. Dean and her magnesium miracle. I ordered ReMag and ReMyte and her book on A-fib and pretty soon, my heart rate started to go down but not enough and not in time to prevent the cardiologist from sending me to to an \"ablationist\" (an expert in burning your heart in an often unsuccessful attempt to stop A-fib). By the time I got in to see the \"ablationist\" the ECG detected no arrythmia. He said there was no point in my continuing to take the heart drug. Let's see, I started ReMag and ReMyte at the end of March, after the cardiologist had given up on me, and got the good news at the end of May. That's two months. I feel better than ever, much stronger physically so I'm guessing that my bone density is greatly improving. (Just to add that the arrythmia started to diminish slowly, kicked up a bit within that last few weeks but not for very long, then appears to have just disappeared entirely.) I've got an appointment with the cardiologist tomorrow and will be curious to see how she handles the \"news\". My guess is that she will be not at all curious as to how I cured myself. (Turns out she wasn't. Imagine that!) Tapering off my heart drug is causing some electrical disturbance, but I hope to just ride it out using Dr. Dean's products.", "label": 1}

I am an expert in computers and I build computers, I also solder take apart memory chips on motherboards and I know how to upgrade electronic components due to my 25 years of experience. So the key thing yours looking for is the latest Android Operating System Which most technicians talk about usually called "OS" another focus is the "CPU" That's the Brains of the whole box and if not done right at the factory and solder right can cause malfunctions which are not unheard of if they are doing rush jobs. So yes there can be a chance you get a Factory defected box which comes to the next important thing to look for. "CAN YOU RETURN IT WITHOUT PENALTY" Pay the extra warranty even if its a bit crappy at least you get your money back or replacement or better. Now the next most important thing to look for is the Frames per second for 4k! This one will run 60fps which is way better than 30fps (Frames Per Second "FPS") So I have noticed most old android boxes only have 2gig memory and this one has 3gig memory which is really really fantastic, what would even be better if this had dual 4 gig memory but then it becomes an Intel motherboard lol which this is not. In Conclusion The memory alone is what will cause lag when multi tasking, Such as running 4k then trying to do another process and using a wireless keyboard and streaming into the memmory all are process that is working at the same time and for it all to work it needs RAM memory not HARD DRIVE DISK MEMORY which is completely seperate, Hard drive also known as SSD drive "Solid State Drive" also known as SD card or USB drive are all storage drives that hold your movies or photos and some apps which you can connect to the box or dongle it if it has the capability like the amazon Fire Stick does. Overall there are youtube videos that will teach you how do add more hard drive space for your digital home movies.

(I paid full price for my massagers, and nobody solicited this review... by the way... I can't STAND that on Amazon... they really need to get that under control!) I do have a piece of advice: if you have a lot of very deep knots, consider working them out over time. If you go gung-ho and do a huge part of it at one time, be prepared for an influx of toxins that your body has to get rid of. It can give you "flu- like" symptoms ranging from headaches to nausia, etc, as well as intense soreness in your muscles as everything heals. If you get these symptoms, drink water, flush your body out (a little raw apple cider vinegar with your water is one of the best things for flushing/ cleansing), be patient, and don't do more massaging until your body has dealt with the first round of toxins. That said, the relief this masager brought me is well worth the "healing phase", and I'm pretty intense, so I'd just rather get it taken care of quickly. Just be aware that you are releasing real toxins when while you knead into those locked muscles! Also, I got the other kind of massager (at the same time) that has only two rotating flat balls on each side (built very similar to this one). I thought I didn't like it as much because it didn't tear into my muscles the way this one did. Then, after the initial work, I saw that the other one could be nice as a follow up when my back is "normal". Also, my kids liked the other one better because this was too much on their more tender muscles. If you have back problems, this will probably be the most helpful $40 you've ever spent for it.

Best for: Gadget geeks who already own a fitbit and are looking to get even more data. It's much more useful with a fitbit than without since this scale adds two pieces of data (weight and body fat) to the large amount of data the fitbit already provides. So, I'd suggest getting that first-- I have the Fitbit One ([[ASIN:B0095PZHPE Fitbit One Wireless Activity Plus Sleep Tracker, Black]]), but I've heard good things about the other new fitbit zip ([[ASIN:B0095PZHZE Fitbit Zip Wireless Activity Tracker, Black]]) or the older original fitbit ([[ASIN:B0031P3HY2 Fitbit Wireless Personal Trainer]]).
Pros:
- Syncs everything to the fitbit website automatically via wifi
- Setup is super easy! (took less than ten minutes)
- Battery life is good (haven't had to change batteries in the two months I've owned it)
- Appears to be pretty reliable-- I've weighed myself a few times over the past few weeks on a scale at the gym, and it's usually pretty close.
- Body fat calculation is useful and accurate (if you're trying to lose weight while gaining muscle, fat loss is more important than weight loss)
- Your whole family can use it-- it can tell who's on it by their weight (this probably isn't useful if you have twins that weight the same).
Cons:
- Makes you aware that you are gaining weight. Note: buying this will not actually make you lose weight come to find out.
- It's made out of the shiny Apple-esque plastic, so it can get grimy pretty easily in the bathroom. I clean it with my favorite Apple product cleaner ([[ASIN:B0023WU6OI Klear Screen IK-26K iKlear Complete Cleaning Kit]]) every now and then and it stays looking pretty shiny.

-------------------------------------------------------
My personal experiences in detail:
What the Dohm-SS does not drown out:
My neighbor's noisy truck or its beeping sound, neighbor tramping up the stairs, slamming doors, sirens (obviously and fortunately!)
What the Dohm-SS DOES drown out:
outdoor voices, indoor voices, outdoor college parties 1200 yards away, my downstairs neighbor's techno music, most construction sounds
Keep in mind that I can hear everything that my neighbors do, especially if it involves the stairs, but at least now their ruckus is silent or muffled.
If I were to purchase 3 of of these they would totally block out all noise, if that were my objective. As it is, one Dohm-SS is sufficient to provide solace for a moderate sized bedroom. I position the Dohm as far away from me as possible at night, either near the door or the window. I am a fan of peace and quiet and now I've a much better option that wearing ear plugs--hooray!

Good for: dorms, apartment dwellers, people sensitive to noise, students, test taking, privacy, people with attention difficulties
It's easy to set up. Plug it in and adjust the holes on the top so that the sound is pleasing to your ear.

Does it make my hair straighter? Actually ... yes! And softer too. That was the pleasantly surprised part. Do I like this better than my name brand hair straightener? I don't know.

It puts out a decent plume of mist, but there have been no issues with any condensation or oil residue. I am very new to the diffuser scene and was very concerned about placing it on my wood or granite. I started by placing it on an older table and about every hour moved it to a new surface. I placed a paper towel below and there was no moisture at all. The top of the diffuser just sets on the base, it does not lock. It makes it really easy to refill, but you would need to be careful in higher traffic areas. The whole diffuser sits on three tabs at the bottom that easily allows the cord to come out and stabilizes the egg-shaped design. I've refilled it and moved it several times and there has been no fingerprints or smudging on the glass.
It came with an instruction manual and a small cup to refill it with water. The max fill line is a bit difficult to see. Mine ran for 4 hours without having to refill. There are only two modes: constant mist or intervals of 30 seconds on and 30 seconds off. I would definitely recommend purchasing this diffuser.

While I know that these powders are sold by weight, not volume, I was a bit surprised to see that the vanilla version took up a fair bit less volume. I\u2019m not sure if the vanilla powder is heavier or if it was somehow more compressed.
So this product is meant to be a meal replacement and not purely a protein powder, so it has a lot more going on than what a typical protein powder might have. In addition to protein, it has a lot of vitamins and minerals and a lot of fiber. Flavor-wise, it\u2019s OK. It\u2019s got some vanilla flavor, and the sweetness isn\u2019t off-putting. I\u2019ve tried protein powders that were strong with the stevia, which is a sweetener that I don\u2019t really like. This contains some of that too, but it also has cane sugar. I\u2019ve certainly tried far less palatable protein/meal replacement powders. I\u2019d probably rank this high up the list, though that isn\u2019t necessarily saying a lot if you\u2019re coming from never having tried these sorts of things to consuming a lot of them and just getting used to the not-very-good flavors. This does have some grittiness, though I make my drinks the night before, which allows for the powder to hydrate well. Also, given that this has more in it than protein powder, the grittiness should be expected. For example, this has a variety of ground of seeds, which is why it has so much fiber.
In comparison to the chocolate flavor, this has slightly more calories, but it has slightly less sodium, less fiber, and less potassium, so there is some difference between these beyond simply the flavors.

Through Amazon's Vine Voices Program, I came across this \u300eWorkman's Friend Leather Conditioners\u300f.
Unboxing revealed that it comes in a square tin jar, with 4oz (118 ml) of all-natural leather conditioner. Once the lid is removed, you can see a lard-like color & wax texture, so you know this, when applied to any leather surface, it will stick & won't run off the shoe contours wasting valuable conditioner. But, how does it work, especially compared to the ones I had bought from shoe sales clerks?
The VERDICT
==========
In order to better test this new leather conditioners, I dug out one of my older, but still favorite, pair of leather dress shoes which has been neglected since I ran out of any leather protection solution or cream. I took out a cotton ball, and dipped some of this Workman's Friend Leather Conditioner onto my shoes. After only several back and forth wipes on the surface, I can already visibly see shine, as it really gets into the leather to nourish & moisturize the leather, just like I'd put on night serum to better protect my facial skins. Again,due to its lard- and wax-like texture, it really stays on the surface well, and give off that shine, especially compared to my untreated left shoes (see review video). I even sprayed some mist on both left & right shoes, the treated right shoes protects the surface well, while water mist left shoes wet.
Also, it doesn't just work well on shoes, I tried it on my leather messenger bags, leather jackets, belts, this leather Conditioner really help restore the shines, and give second life, and extend it's longevity.

But the main reason I got this was to heal my teeth. I had a few cavities that I needed to take care of, so I boiled some and swished it around my mouth. It helped make my teeth feel better, but over time it had stained my teeth. Not much at first, but I made the mistake of leaving some in my mouth overnight, and by morning, it had stained them brown. A little more every time. It was in streaks so I knew it was staining something on my tooth, not the enamel itself. I had no fear because I had positive results of getting plaque off with coconut oil in the past, so once I got home, I oil pulled and brushed, and immediately I could see a small difference. I oil pulled for an hour the night before a dentist teeth cleaning, left some in my mouth overnight, then oil pulled for another hour in the morning, and by the time the cleaning was done, they were shiny white!
Four stars because not entirely sure what to think, on one side it kind of made my teeth feel better, but I don't want to use it again and risk staining my teeth. I'm scheduled to go to the dentist to finally fix my cavities, but I'm not sure what to think. Maybe I should give it another shot and really go hard on that diet, because I didn't really stay strict to the teeth-fixing diet.
Disclaimer: I did not ingest all of the necessary ingredients to heal my teeth, and cheated a bit with bread a lot and sugar occasionally. I took blended eggshell most or every night before doing this as well. I had it, but don't remember if I always took the Blue Ice HVBO. Maybe now that I'm at home (and not vacation- was there for 2 months) and drink raw milk and a more steady diet I can make this work, who knows. I've had a history of bad teeth so even if I get the cavities filled, this might not be the end of this journey for me. I will though definitely be staying sugar free. Keep in mind that whatever raises blood sugar will pull calcium, so even some sugar substitutes like sugar alcohol will be bad for teeth.", "label": 1}

I see Poron inserts offered by many of the custom shoe companies, there must be a reason. but it's my money and I wanted to be sure before spending several hundred, or thousand, dollars on shoes that I would regret. I wanted to try the Poron first. The sheet was the obvious way to go for the money spent. I was able to cut inserts for 3 pair of shoes ( 6 inserts Size 9 Mens ) and still have half of the sheet left for my wife . . if it works. I started with my walking shoes. I traced, cut and inserted a Poron sheet under my orthotic foodbeds; 5 miles one morning without the Poron sheets under my orthotic and the next day 5 miles with the Poron insert. It's difficult to describe the difference pre and post Poron inserts, but after trying Poron in street shoes I can't imagine being without it. So, the next day I tried the same 5 miles in a not high end COSTCO tennis shoe that's been in my closet for years; sans Poron the first day, with sore feet at the end of 5 miles. During my walk I had decided to put the Tennis shoes in the garage for painting projects. The next day I cut and inserted Poron inserts into the same not very expensive COSTCO tennis shoes under a mid-range off-the-shelf orthotic footbed. I would have thought I paid hundreds of dollars for the COSTCO shoes. What a difference. The tennis shoes went back into my closet as an alternative to my high end walking shoes. It seems that you need to match the shoe, shoe volume and orthotic to be sure it's perfect with each foot and model of shoe, but with good eyesight, a pencil, a pair of scissors and kindergarten skill set anybody can do it. I have cut inserts for all but one pair of shoes and wouldn't think of going without the Poron. Truth be told I'm not sure I need the custom shoes. My standard shoes, with the Poron, are damn near the comfort in the footbed that I expected with my custom made shoes.", "label": 1}

I am not sure what is special about the K*REAL* krill, but astaxanthin is a keto-carotenoid found in krill and other fish. In fact, it is this compound that gives shrimp and salmon flesh its red color. Astaxanthin has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, so its use as a dietary supplement may be benefit those with cardiovascular, immune, inflammatory or neurodegenerative disease. There is also some preliminary evidence that astaxanthin has an anti-aging effect. This is in addition to the positive effects of EPA and DHA.
The krill oil was manufactured in the US in a GMP facility. A lot number and expiration date is stamped on the bottle. There are 60 capsules in the bottle. There is no mention as to whether the capsules are manufactured in a facility with soy, dairy, peanut and gluten, etc. The capsules contain shellfish [obviously] and gelatin. The recommend dose is 2 capsules which contains 1,000 mg krill oil, with 60mg EPA, 40mg DHA and 200mg astaxanthin. The capsules are the usual small peanut size for krill oil supplements and smell very fishy in the bottle. The smell doesn't bother me, it just means I am getting what I paid for. They are easy to swallow and I don't get fish burps from other supplements, so I can't say if these are better or worse in that regard.
Having done a lot of research on krill vs. fish oil, I have switched exclusively to krill oil to lower inflammation to help with my fibromyalgia. It is too hard to consume enough fatty fish regularly to get therapeutic doses of EPA/DHA. This krill oil touts the presence of astaxanthin, however, I think all krill oil supplements contain at least some astaxanthin, as evidenced by their red color.

It's a very simple book with a cute yet classy design and includes good prompts to record your little guy's babyhood. I'm not a scrapbooker and don't have the know-how/time to put together a completely personalized book but this one was really cute with the letter on the cover to individualize the child's name. Also, I really hate how some books are either WAY too general so you don't get very much detail on the kid, or WAY too specific about the parents or religious ceremonies, etc. (i.e., I DON'T have a doctorate degree and don't want pages that deal with each parents' career highlights and advanced degrees. Yes, I've seen books like that at Target and Walmart, where I don't think those types of people would shop anyway because those books weren't great quality either.) This book had several pages that you could do whatever you wanted with. Like a page for a \"Special Day\" instead of a specific type of religious ceremony, then you can use it for a ceremony OR whatever else you want. There are cute pockets for saving hair, etc. and a few extra page protectors if you want to add documents. And of course, it has plenty of pages with the classic questions that apply to every baby and that every parent wants to remember :)
And best of all, it's easy to fill out! I kept an extra fine point sharpie marker in the box for the first year of my son's life and my husband and I took just a few minutes once every few months to update it and that's all it took!

Right now, it's short, which means often pieces stick out in the oddest and most annoying way. I have a curling/straightening iron, but it's designed for longer hair. So when I saw this, I was pretty excited - finally, I can get those obnoxious pieces under control.
I was relying on that manufacturer's statement \" Q: Will this work for short hair?
A: Yes! Our product is designed to be used on all hair types and all hair length. So It does work perfectly on short hair! \"
Well, OK, maybe on someone who has hair longer than three inches from their head. You have to run the heated comb/brush through your hair for it to work. The head of the comb/brush is 1.75\" wide (almost 2 inches at the widest point); the \"tines,\" which I assume are designed so as to avoid burns, are an inch deep and unbending.
You have to hold your hair (\"and tighten it from the roots\" according to the instructions) while running the heated comb/brush through your hair to straighten. This means your hand needs a portion to grasp in addition to the area required to actively comb/brush. With short hair, if you've got, say, 2-3 inches of hair growing from your head thanks to expensive maintenance, that means you've got the comb/brush, your hand, and you're done - no room to actually perform any action.
All credit for having instructions included, a lovely box in which the product was packaged - but I'm really taken aback that the manufacturer would think this product would work with short hair given the size. It may be awesome for long hair (which would have been in 1999, I think, for me) - but I cannot say it works for short hair. At all.", "label": 0}

This product just that that--the brush and other heads rotate both clockwise and counterclockwise at the same time which is sooo amazing! This is comparable to another expensive product (Ageloc) that does that same function but that other product does not have actual brushes as an alternative head attachment.
This face brush comes with 3 head attachments which lets you choose how much depth you want the brush to clean your face. I love that it has a timer for 1 minute so you know if you're over-doing the face cleaning. It has 2 settings, normal speed and faster speed which is good as well to give you choices. I also like that it is not battery operated, and the charge lasts for days!
I really want exfoliation so I use this with an SA Cleanser and it just does the job. I also use it for 3 minutes for face and neck so if you don't want too much exfoliation, just do 1 minute and use the soft of the head for sensitive skin. In the first few days of using it, I can feel my skin exfoliating, of course, if you don't want to exfoliate too much, don't overdo it! And the longer I use it, the softer I felt my skin is. I think that cleaning it with this product opens up the pores and makes it easier for your skin products to get absorbed.
Overall, I am so happy that I was able to find this product which a lot of research and reading other products. I hope they add more brush heads that we can buy. The good thing is that, we can buy just replacement heads for this product which is great!

Very good plugs. I have larger ear canal, and typically find triple flange plugs go in to far and become irritating and uncomfortable. I had used ER 20 and alpine plugs, as well as custom molded with etymotic filter. I prefer the long stem. The longer stem is not so long that you couldn't wear this under a helmet. The shorter stem is rather short. I have big bass playing fingers, and the longer stem helps me get a grip.
about custom plugs-
The custom ones are good - perhaps the best- BUT: I have had at least 5 custom plugs with mostly poor result considering the price. Sometimes they are cast poorly and don't seal in the canal; sometimes they are cut poorly for the filter, and the filter pops out or leaks. Sometimes there's a problem with the molds made at the lab. Not one pair of custom plugs have I had both a good seal in the canal and reliable filter seal/retention. And what happens when you lose one? You spend hundreds of dollars to do it all over again...
So I choose to save $100+ and buy these, replacing as necessary.
compared to comparable plugs- the ER20 and Alpine Musicsafe
The other plugs wear out faster than these. They also fit a little smaller. They all attenuate about the same, but I prefer the downbeat. The good case low price fur and durability stand out. I keep these on my keys. I can't do that with the others. The cases for the others don't hold up stay closed, etc.
The ER-20 and its siblings are triple flange, which I avoid for comfort reasons, but they are good. The Alpine are also good. I find them to be quite comfortable, but the tips wear out quickly, and require more frequent replacement than these downbeats. The Alpine case is similar, but made of plastic- it does not stay closed/on the keyring. Then they are gone. boo. Downbeats win.
Plus, here's a bonus for me- these buds fit perfectly on my etymotic earphones. I love those earphones- highly recommend*- but the tips wear out over time. I keep a pair of downbeats and my headphones in the same pack. Win.", "label": 1}

I have been using this product for almost two weeks and can see small differences in tone and texture around my eyes. I am really excited to see continual results!
After cleansing your face morning and night apply a small dot of the eye cream and lightly dab it around your eyes - (even though the tube is small you only have to use a very small amount so I anticipate that this cream will last awhile- a little dab will cover your entire eye area). It dries fairly quick so you can get on with the rest of your beauty routine quickly.
A couple things that I noticed when using the cream is that (1) it does not have much of a scent (i prefer this because I have very sensitive skin and alot of times scented products burn my skin) & (2) once you apply the cream and it begins to dry you can literally feel the cream firming your eye area. I like that because it makes me feel that it is really working! Along with this and the resukts I have seen this far I am excited to see what wonderful things this cream will do for my eyes. A couple things that I really like about this product is that (1) it is made in the USA & (2) it is not tested on animals. Both of these things are important to me when selecting products.

If you are looking for a sponge or product to remove your makeup with just water, this is NOT it. If you are looking for something gentle to use on your skin that leaves it feeling FRESH then this might be what you are looking for. I attempted removing my make up with just the sponge and water and it left a goopy mess. HOWEVER I LOVE this for washing my clean face in the mornings before I apply makeup or for washing my makeup free face after a day of chores. It is very gentle but still enough to remove the dirt from the day or any small spots of dry skin. For my heavier exfoliation I still reach for my Clarisonic, but this sponge and the lack of harsh cleansers gives my face a nice break and has helped with the healing of bad breakouts.
The thing I liked most about this sponge however was how gentle it was on my SUNBURN and the peeling that had started. It got rid of the peeling spots but did so in such a gentle manner that it stopped the peeling from getting worse.
My skin feels clean, smooth and healthy after using it this sponge. It does work well with a mild cleanser if you prefer.
It increases in size quite a bit once it is wet all the way through. About six inches in length 3 inches width and a half inch thick when fully dampened. It feels a bit slimy or slick in your hand but is worth it for how gentle it is. It seems starchy. It is very soft and squishy when wet not at all hard or stiff (although when it arrives new and dry it will be). I did not experience any weird smell that I have seen in the other reviews. I am grateful the opportunity came up for me to try this product at a discounted price in return for my honest review.
PROS - Gentle on your skin even sunburns, skin feels good after use, helps to diminish breakouts, can be used with or without cleanser, string to store it hanging so it does not soak up germs
CONS - Does not remove makeup with just water", "label": 1}

So basically same care instructions as a flat iron but this is so much easier to use and doesn't leave your hair fully flat with and with an indent near the scalp of your hair like a flat iron does. Since this is shaped like a brush, I was able to get slightly more body into my hair rather than completely flat which is what happened with a flat iron. Also the bristles are not meant to comb your hair with but they are meant to hold your hair in place like a brush as you run the unit through your hair.

I have been in search of the perfect sleeping mask for 20 years. I\u2019ve found ones that I liked using at the time I purchased them - but looking back, they were more decorative than functional. They were better than nothing, but there was a light of light creeping through. For quite a long time, silk outer, cotton-ish flat sleep masks were all that seemed available.
Masks then became available with newer, more elastic fabrics like this mask began to be produced. The masks also seemed to get bigger at that time, especially when compared to the flimsy decorative silk masks. I liked my first mask of the \u201cnew generation\" very much. It barely let any light in at all. But it also came with such a large band that even though it had a velcro adjuster for size, it was way too big. I added in a very small safety pin to tighten it up. Never quite got there. The mask was also a flat front - which these new thicker masks made quite warm. It had it\u2019s good and bad points.
Then I tried this mask and I knew that my search was over. That does sound dramatic, I know, but I love this mask! It functions literally like a blindfold, as advertised. It has much the same fabric and thickness of my previous mask, but the way that the eye covers are 3D contoured is EVERYTHING. I hadn\u2019t realized just how miserable and warm I had been during my long search until I came across this mask that makes no contact with my eyes. It doesn\u2019t cause any unwelcome warmth in the mask area. I use it all the time and can\u2019t imagine using another mask. It has the same type of around the back of the head with velcro band, but this band and it\u2019s velcro are thoughtfully sized.
I\u2019ve recommended this mask to all my friends who use masks and purchased others for my mother and my sister.

There are several different modes for personal preferences and I have been trying different modes. Turn/spin the attachment so the modes are viewable in mirror on the device and that helps you when first using it. It was pretty easy to learn the modes, as each one feels very different spraying the water and makes a different noise. The lowest setting has barely any water coming out and is a good mode to start with so you don\u2019t spray yourself. The pulse mode helps if you have tight crowns to clean in between well.
Another thing to remember is to set it to the lowest mode (last light) when done. The device has a memory function that goes back to the last mode you used. Which is actually pretty funny if you don\u2019t remember and it's on high mode when it first starts again. I suggest wearing old clothes when practicing that you don\u2019t care if they get soaking wet.
The bowl that holds the water seems pretty big and the machine once put together is a good size but light enough to use easily. The first couple uses, I had to refill the bowl mid use to completely finish. This is partly a new user, as I am getting used to the machine. I would personally like a bit more water to not feel as rushed. Personal preference.
Easy to rinse out and place on a clean washcloth to dry. Button above the usb charger releases the attachment and it's easy to run hot water on and in it to clean out after use.
The device must be charged for four hours first time before using, with USB cord included. You will need a square plug in or strip with a usb port to actually charge. The usb port on the machine comes with a plastic cover to push into and cover plug area so water doesn\u2019t get in. An extra cover is included in case you lose it or it breaks.
Attachments come sealed in separate plastic bags to keep clean until use. There were 6 attachments included. 4 were different types to use for different needs braces, bridges etc. nice to have the options if needed.

This thing is amazing. I don\u2019t even know what it\u2019s doing exactly but it is absolutely incredible. It quickly became addicting to watch all the gross stuff coming off my face. You definitely need wet wipes nearby! I stood in front of the mirror using this thing on my face for two hours. I think it\u2019s fantastic. Just don\u2019t overdo it like I did.
Amazing scrubber.
I was sceptical about this product before I ordered it, but it's quickly become one of my favourite gadgets. I've had it about 3 weeks and have been using it frequently throughout the week. This means I can't yet comment on how the gadget lasts over time, but can say it has performed all the actions it's meant to (exfoliate, tighten and increase product absorption). Since using it my skin has improved.", "label": 1}

In the case of the wooden top shown in the image: these are the two lids to a 1925 Victor Talking Machine and its radio set. When I brought it home, all the mahogany finish was 'ugly, black, dirty and 100% filthy and uncared for a 100yrs\"
I set to work with the related product-\"Skidmores Restoration Cream\" and 000 grade steel wool-- to get the 'ugly off\". The rags were so dirty, that even after a wash, they were stained black. Much labor and some Time, and the 'ugly' was gone. Next step- The'' Skidmores Finish\" compound. This is far and away better than ANY petro-chemical wood finish--petro-chemical finishes are NOT good for wood or wood finishes.
I put this on with a short bristle paint brush, being sure to cover ALL the surface of the wood. Then let it sit half of one day and all of the following night. In the AM, I got a whole sack of micro fiber rags out, and went to work on the cabinet. First, rags to take off the excess product. Then, a clean, new one, in fine, it was one rag for all 06 sides. This buffs out the finish. When done, you can toss a dime on top and watch it glide off the other side. Now, you can judge from the Photo, how it looks. And note too- this photo is done with a cheap flip phone camera. The reflection you see is from an East facing window-the photo taken a circa Noon.

I have been trying to find a natural deodorant for years. After so many failed attempts, I had just about given up when I saw that Ethique offered a deodorant. I've been happy with their shampoo, conditioner, and lotion bars so I decided to try one more natural deodorant before giving up for good. I'm so glad it tried it. This deodorant checks all the boxes for me. It is free from baking soda so I don't get that horrible rash. The magnesium hydroxide is super effective for controlling odor. The scent is pleasant and not too strong. THE BIG THING is... it actually absorbs perspiration. It's like some sort of sorcery or black magic!! It's not a true antiperspirant in preventing sweating, but it's so effective at absorbing that I don't miss antiperspirant at all.
I will say, there are a few things to know going into this. The minimal-waste design means no applicator. I have learned to just trim the parchment type paper it comes in to provide a finger hold so it's not all over my hands after applying That works great down to the last little bit of the bar when my hands get a little messy.
The other thing to know... it goes on a bit chalky, but I think that is unavoidable with the combo of tapioca and bamboo that makes it so absorbing. I'll deal with chalky in exchange for this level of moisture control. The consistency can make it hard to apply. It doesn't exactly glide on. In summer it's not so bad. In winter, I just hold it against my armpit for 5-10 seconds to warm it before I start applying. It does not go on clear. There is a whitish residue and it will leave white marks on clothes if you're not careful, but it does not stain and again... it's a small price to pay for dry pits.", "label": 1}

I have been watching as friends and family members continue to rave about lotions, potions, and other gizmos. Well ... now I'm hooked! I tried the LORIS diffuser with 100% pure frankincense after receiving the product at a discount in exchange for this honest review. As a newbie, I was a bit intimidated, but sure didn't need to be. The concept and packaging are both elegant and simple. The instructions definitely could use an editor, but I was able to follow them.
I ran the diffuser overnight after slightly overfilling it (the unit is designed to hold 120ml max but the cup that comes with it measures up to 150ml and I didn't compare the markings on both before using it). While using 30sec pulse mode, I still had about 70ml of solution left more than 8 hours later. The machine is quiet; I was able to adapt quickly to the watery whispers and they didn't disturb me from about a foot away on my nightstand.
I love playing with all the different light modes while I'm awake, but turned that part off for sleeping. The mist still functioned with no problem. My only complaint in that regard is the green/red power light still glows pretty brightly, and I'm sensitive to light so it was disruptive for me. I turned the front of the unit away toward the wall, which helped enough for me but still reflected.
Cleanup is no more messy than I would expect other diffusers to be. I get some condensation drops when removing the cover if I've just turned the machine off, but absolutely no stray droplets or moisture problems while operating (even my paperback was safe right next to the unit). The instructions say to use citric acid every 2-3 days to keep it clean; I don't look forward to having to think about that so often.
Overall, I plan to continue using this diffuser in my bedroom and am now looking to build my collection of oils.", "label": 1}

I say this because, I would have ended up scarring the heck out of my face had I used it even once.
Here's what I did like about this product:
***The case, the case was truly beautiful. It was as if it were from I don't know the 40s or the 50s when they used to make things really well. And a truly was beautiful.
***The price point, for around $8 I thought that there was a lot within the set as far as various implements. So therefore I thought insofar as money wise you got good bang for your buck as a consumer.
Here is what I did not like about this set:
***Extraordinarily, extremely, and exceptionally dangerous. When I'm telling you these things are surgically Sharp.. I'm telling you these tools are surgically Sharp. You could so easily hurt yourself and certainly scar your skin using any of these tools and I would not recommend it for the removal of blackheads or relief of pimples. No one, perhaps not even a trained professional could wield these tools in the safe manner.
***Lastly, one of the implements that I managed to pull out of course I stabbed myself in the process but that's beside the point the head of this tool fell off immediately when I pulled it out. I looked everywhere on the floor for it couldn't find out where fell to this day haven't found it cuz I thought to myself maybe I'd glue it back. But even still, a brand new item should not be falling off like that regardless if if you're easily able to glue it back on or not. So that's why I say that it has the illusion of being high quality but the reality it really wasn't the highest quality product.
I suppose because of the beauty of it, it could be a gift. But I'm telling you that it is so dangerous that I wouldn't recommend it to anybody and I certainly wouldn't buy it again.", "label": 0}

On days when I need to run errands it's easier for me to just throw my hair up in a bun and wear a bandanna. Until now...
I have long-ish thick wavy hair that's kind of frizzy. With my regular flat iron I have to divide my hair into sections AND layers to make sure I get it all done. It takes forever! It takes so long that I only do it on days when I need to be at the hospital (they won't let me have my bandanna lol) and special occasions.
I was skeptical when I first received my WonderBrush Straightener. I quickly became a fan. No sections. No layers. Straightening my hair is now as easy as running a brush through it.
I used a blow dryer on my hair before I used the WonderBrush so I had more volume then I usually do when I use my flat iron. I plan on trying it out on air dried hair tomorrow (I'll update afterwards).
The WonderBrush heated up quickly and remained hot the entire time. Sometimes with my flat iron I'll have to turn it off and then turn it back on to get the heat back up to the proper temperature. The rubber bristles spread my hair out in an even layer and kept the heating element away from my scalp.
All in all it took about 10 to 15 minutes to straighten all of my hair. I brushed the top first and then did the underside just to be sure. That's only a fraction of the time it would have taken my flat iron to get the job done. I'm impressed!
I love this straightener!

PRICE: $17.09 per roll \u2013 (1.6\u201d x 120\u201d rolls at 8.9 cents/sq. inch)
Ironically, I had just visited my dermatologist to have stitches removed from what was an outpatient procedure a few weeks prior. I had a removal of a small item near the front of my neck and off to the side a bit. I asked the attending nurse what she knew about \u2018silicone tape.\u2019 She shared that their office recommends the use of the tape, but didn\u2019t mention any brands. I understood how silicone tape worked on scars, and felt it worth trying on mine. I should have asked about FDA approved brands vs online, but didn't.
The first day I went to apply the tape, I found the roll-size was perfect. Its 1.6\u201d width was just the right length for my scare. So I could cut the tape at 1\u201d off the roll; 1.6\u201d x 1.0\u201d worked great in covering the scar and having sufficient overage to secure to my skin. The adhesive is strong enough to keep the cut-to-size bandaid type product on all day. And on my fair complexion, I can barely see the product on my neck. I was very impressed.
I\u2019d recommend only wearing the tape for a few hours. I wore the silicone tape for about seven hours. And after removal I noted the area was irritated and itchy. I'd remembered the instructions indicated a shorter first-time use of 4-6 hrs. Maybe that was why an introductory short wear time would be wise. The irritation cleared that evening, and the following days I wore silicone tape from morning until early evening. And I have to admit that the scar was initially low-level. But after a week of applications, (new bandaid each day), I noticed a very flattened scar. I'll attribute some of that to the tape.
My only caution about this or any other tape is that I couldn\u2019t find \u2018direct reference\u2019 to approval by the FDA anywhere on the tape or box. It was certainly inferred on the vendor\u2019s page, but never directly shared certifiable endorsements or approvals. After having used this product, and not having any allergic reactions, I felt it was safe to continue use.", "label": 1}

It's an almost universally accepted fact that people who are deficient especially in the winter months can become depressed & susceptible to things like seasonal affective disorder. Most people are also aware that our body naturally gets vitamin D from exposure to the sun. In many places in the winter sun exposure is not an option so we become naturally deficient. I was super excited when I was offered True Synergy Vitamin D3 in exchange for my honest & unbiased opinion & review because of this.
According to True Synergy, premium quality Vitamin D3 is the ultimate supplement for people who have weak bones or are suffering from immune system problems. Deficiency of Vitamin D3 can lead to several problems in life and is a major cause for many diseases, fatigue and laziness. The lack of the vitamin in the body is a common factor and people suffer heavily when ignoring the symptoms. It is something that requires immediate attention and the person needs to supplement the shortage of Vitamin D3 in the body to avoid illness, fatigue and tiredness.
Premium Quality Vitamin D3 supplements are the perfect solution to Vitamin D3 deficiency issues. The 5000 Iu bottle provide high potency and is the perfect cure for the problem.
The gels are soft in nature so that it is not inconvenient to taken them. It is a 100% pure and natural supplement. It improves muscle, dental, breast and bone health immediately and has a great effect after the necessary dose.
This means that there are potentially many additional health benefits that we may possibly experience from taking a product of this nature. This is so potent that you only need to take 1 every 2 days. A bottle of this size, 120 is quite a bargain at just shy of $14 when it will last you for 240 days or just over 34 weeks! I can't think of many other products that are that affordable to use! The potential good that it will do in that amount of time makes it a no brainer for me, I would have purchased a bottle most likely for that price even if I had not been allowed to review it.", "label": 1}

Still very happy with the product after using it a year. I have multiple repeat purchases of the product and it is still working well to keep my skin smooth and clearer than it would otherwise be without using this product.
I am 37 years old and I have been fighting a pitched battle with my acne prone skin since my earliest teens. Acne is a complex problem with a lot of causes.
I have used this product for about nine months. My skin absolutely looks amazing now. It GLOWS. I can actually leave the house WITHOUT MAKEUP and not feel ashamed anymore.
By glow, I mean it looks darn near flawless. I am getting compliments on my skin for the first time in my life.
I have sensitive skin. A word of caution:
Prep Skin Refresher CAN and DOES sting until your skin becomes accustomed to it. Work through it because the results are WORTH EVERY MINUTE of slight (or not so slight) discomfort.
The first time I used it I thought I couldn't handle it. I washed it off with water after about five minutes. I was mad at first but my skin was so smooth! The glow on my skin was unmistakeable and my makeup went on so smoothly I was astounded.
I decided to try again the next day. I repeated the process. wipe on, let sit for five minutes, rinse off. I had to do this for a few weeks until my sensitivity subsided.
I can now put on the product and it does not sting at all.
I use this product on my entire face, neck, chest, and upper arms. I follow with a good clean moisturizer.
In the summer, I use it on my legs to make them smoother. It does sting after you shave or exfoliate so plan accordingly.
I shave or exfoliate at least 10 to 12 hours BEFORE or AFTER using this product.

We have several other masks cloth and disposable masks to compare these masks against. I must tell everyone these masks rock!
Seriously, this mask is soft. Soft like a high quality, tight woven, brushed cotton, and soft t-shirt that feels so good I can\u2019t wait for it to be washed.
Made in the USA by Americans look up their website!
I don\u2019t know them but I know where they are and they stopped production and are only making face masks..
The mask has adjustable ear loops, a pouch for inserts like those charcoal filters if you so choose.
The mask is so comfortable. But, here are more reasons why I will wear this mask every time I can because of a unique feature of the strap that goes behind my head, furthermore not putting pressure on my head or neck, simply rests on my back so I can take the mask off when safe and it simply hangs on my chest or lower. No longer having to put it In the visor, risk it touching anything but my shirt. Period. I don\u2019t have to look for it when I get out of the truck or put it in the pocket my phone was in, as cellphones are nasty even though you clean them, because I simply raise my mask up by the ear loops and slip it on my ears and snug the strap if it\u2019s loose. Double layer full coverage mask. From bridge of my nose to under my chin. Comfortable all day! I don\u2019t use the carbon filters. If needed, I would put a disposable mask in the pocket area on a as necessary basis.
I don\u2019t think I have been so excited about a product since my first boom box. Just kidding; since my iPhone.
These comes in two different sizes. I wear the XL. I have wide cheek bones and I\u2019m chubby. My spouse wears the Large and has a narrower jawline shaped face and chubby.

Some of the issues I'm sure could have been easily settled, and hopefully the customer wouldn't be so disappointed. Products don't always work for everybody, sometimes we can get a lemon, but that is no reason to leave such ugly comments, especially when the company hasn't been contacted first to see if the situation can be rectified.
As I said in my original review, I did a lot of research before deciding on this one from Apalus, out of all the reviews that I read on different websites about these brushes this was one of the few that ranked the highest.
******First review left on April 9,2016*******
I had done some research before deciding on purchasing this brand.....this brand ranked better than all the rest. The back of my hair is frizzy and this brush works great at making may hair look like it belongs on my head. I am pleased with how it works, it heats up fast, all the functions work great on it.", "label": 1}

I took my BP with this monitor and got a 139/89 reading. Then took it with my old monitor and got a 125/73 reading. Then took it with this one again and got 134/80. That was all within minutes of each other on the same arm. So\u2026 ? I think I might bring both to my next doctors appointment and test it against theirs. So far this one is consistently giving higher readings than my old one.
I like that it takes the readings relatively quickly. It\u2019s a bit faster than my other monitor.
I also like that this comes with a USB power cord. My old one runs strictly on batteries. I like having the option to also plug it into a wall outlet. That\u2019s a nice feature.
And I really like that this detects an irregular heartbeat. My old one didn\u2019t do that.
I just need to figure out which BP monitor is accurate. I tried to see if this is Antrolife BP monitor has been validated for accuracy using the online registries at MedEval and Stride BP (the 2 most well known international registries) but I couldn\u2019t find any BP monitors manufactured by Antrolife listed on either registry. I also checked the British and Irish hypertension society registry, European society of hypertension (they use the stride BP registry) and the American medical association registry with no luck. None had any Antrolife products listed. I searched by both manufacturer and model number.
Maybe they are manufactured and tested under a different brand name? Or maybe I\u2019m just not searching the registries properly? I\u2019ve never done a search of BP monitor registries before today so it could just be user error on my end. It says it\u2019s certified by European ISO but I was unable to find a way to search for European ISO certified BP monitors. I thought they were supposed to be listed on the Stride BP registry but I may be wrong.
I\u2019ll try to update this review in the future if I ever figure out which one is accurate.", "label": 1}

The potassium stearate version is no longer available as of this update. I have not used the veggie oil based version and this review in no way alludes to that version. That said, my experience has been that veggie oil based soaps are not quite as good in the best instances and can be downright dreck in other instances. And in any instance not as skin friendly as their superior stearate versions. Ymmv.
This is an excellent soap for the money. No doubt the user that said it was hard to lather has either very hard water or is not proficient with lathering hard shaving soaps. And the dirty little secret about the wooden bowls amongst all the vendors is that they're nearly all proprietary sizes. This forces you to get their bowl with their soap so they can make an extra buck off of you. Some are interchangeable but not many. And creams lather in almost any kind of water so no surprise about his experience with them. Creams are excellent but many men prefer the hard soaps because their performance is so good, superior even.
Taylor's is an excellent shaving soap. In fact this soap provides lots of protection and lots of cushion yet it's versatile enough to pivot into a slicker lather with the addition of a tiny bit of water to the formed lather for application on the second pass (or even the first pass if you're so inclined). Fantastic stuff. It has a genuine sharp yet bright lavender scent that is thee classic scent of men's shaving soap. I've used all the premium hard shaving soaps - D.R. Harris, Trumper, Art of Shaving, Truefitt and Hill, Kent, Penhaligon's, Tabac and Valobra (stick version). Taylor's is right up there with all of the best. They're all fine soaps and some are better than others but at this level you're splitting hairs (no pun intended) so there's really not much difference. Of course the Taylor's costs less which is a blessing. I recommend you try all the top shelf shaving soaps (the ones I mentioned as well as many others) and decide for yourself what you like but don't knock the Taylor's on performance as it is one of the best.", "label": 1}

Maca has a toasty almost yeasty taste and smell. I can\u2019t explain it. I happen to love the taste of it. I use it in smoothies and have for years. It\u2019s supposed to be good for you. Can\u2019t attest to that, but I do know that maca seems to give me a little boost without the jitters of caffeine, so that\u2019s great for me as I can not tolerate caffeine.
I particularly love smoothies with a combination of raw cacao and maca. Try them together if you haven\u2019t.
When I first started using maca I remember that I thought it actually smelled like sweaty socks - not dirty socks, but athletic socks that had been worn on clean feet that had been sweating. It\u2019s a very particular odor! Nutritional yeast has that smell. And I thought all maca does, too, but that turns out not to be the case. I don\u2019t get that smell from this brand of maca. I\u2019ll admit that I rather like that smell. I like nutritional yeast and I like maca, but this is quite a bit nicer. It has a strong smell that maca lovers will like. My hubby, whose sense of smell isn\u2019t as strong as mine (according to him) really loves this maca and commented on the good smell when I put it from the re-sealable bag into a glass storage container.
It is noticeably finer ground than other organic brands that I\u2019ve been buying. That means you\u2019ll have a less grainy taste, not that I noticed it before, but I did notice that this was ground very fine indeed.
Good price. Good product. My only complaint is an odd one, and not one that I\u2019ll take away any stars for: I do not like the packaging design. It doesn\u2019t look like the packaging of a food product but more like it would be suitable for office products. Doesn\u2019t matter, as I threw it away.

It \"sits up\" like an alarm clock. I love that it is battery operated. I charged it overnight. This comes with a USB cable (not the typical micro USB; perhaps type C), the unit itself, and an instruction pamphlet.\u00a0
Operation is simple as per my video. Press and hold the on/off button for about three seconds to turn the unit on or off.\u00a0\u00a0
Rotate the dial on the front to move through the six sounds of brook, thunder, white noise, wave, wind, and bonfire. All but one sound is pure annoying noise.
The timer can be set from 20 to 120 minutes. Each press turns on a light in the front of the unit and when the lights are off, it means the timer is off.
There is a nightlight feature that only works when powered on. The nightlight button is in the center top. There are three light\u00a0varieties that can be cycled through with each press and the 4th press will turn off the light.\u00a0 The first press turns on a light dot that rotates around the dial. The second press turns on one side of dots, then turns off the top dot and turns on the next bottom dot until it cycles around the dial with half the dots on and half off. The next press keeps all the dots lit. This is what they\u00a0call breathing lights.
The volume buttons are on the right side top that can be used to increase or decrease volume.
The current price of $16.19 ($26.99 minus 40%) would be extremely reasonable for this if I liked it but I do not. It has a limited\u00a0musical repertoire that is more annoying noise than anything else and the nightlight feature is more of a series of indicator lights.\u00a0I like the look of this and that it is battery operated.

As someone who enjoys being outside, and spends a significant amount of time outside as a result, I absolutely cannot stand the tiny terrors that we refer to as mosquitoes. I have had clusters of boil-like bumps and bruises (from scratching) all over my arms, legs, and back caused by presumed planned attacks from these fun-sized invaders.
I proceeded to conduct some research about why I am such a significant target. Subsequently, I learned that mosquitoes are more attracted to individuals with an O blood type, our metabolic rates, the amount of CO2 our bodies release (so, basically just breathing), and dark clothing. Upon acquiring this new-found knowledge, I decided to spend a day outside in all-white clothing, sitting dead still, and holding my breath \u2014since I can\u2019t change my blood type, I just let my body continue to circulate my tainted blood which serves as a siren song for these suckers\u2014 and, to my anti-climactic surprise, it didn\u2019t work. I returned home with the same amount of battle scars and scratched myself to sleep.
I decided to air my grievances with some friends and was told to try AVON Skin-So-Soft. Apparently, it acts as a body moisturizer, a sun screen, and a bug guard. Thrilled at the news, I placed an order on Amazon and received my defense mechanism a day later (thanks to Amazon Prime).
Today, I applied the lotion and prayed to the bug guard gods to protect me from the minuscule evils that enjoy fulfilling their bloodlust through my skin. I am absolutely overjoyed to announce that I have not been bitten once since using the lotion and will be sacrificing a handful of mosquito carcasses to the bug guard gods in thanks.
If you are suffering alongside me, I highly recommend AVON Skin-So-Soft as a defense mechanism against these vampiric pests. The battle may have been won but the war is far from over.", "label": 1}

Being that the \"Rotary with springs\" is trending in popularity, I decided to take a look at them because I had heard that they will put in crisp solid lines and can handle any needle size and configuration.
So I found this machine with the familiar coil machine frame and springs and here's what I found out so far.:
It hits like a hammer!
This is a serious machine and definitely not recommended for small needle groupings lining work. It just goes in hard and heavy so anything 9RL and above is definitely adequate.
I did try some stipple whip shading with a 5RL at about 5 volts and it worked like a charm. This machine is great if you have fast hand speed with smaller needles but at 14RL and above, it puts on crisp solid lines, SOLID. 8.5 volts was more than adequate for a 14 and then I turned it to 9.4 volts for an 18.
Unlike conventional coil machines, the top post screw regulates stroke length. I got this thing to go about 5 MM stroke and no matter how I messed with it, it still kept hitting like a hammer!
Now unlike most rotary machines, this one sounds like a coil machine. Buzz buzz buzz all night long but I found it possible to attach an O-ring, as pictured, to the spring and top binding post and it totally quieted down the machine and regulated the hit a little.
The magnet connector is kind of gimmicky but it sticks and it works, although I'm probably going to modify it to accept an RCA connector and if I feel motivated, I'll even do a clip cord mod for it since this motor can be used with reverse voltage and be able to adjust the machine feel for shoft shading and blending but this is definitely a Liner machine at it's core.
It's a very exciting tattoo machine and it's solid made. It came with additional springs too which was nice and if you are very well versed in tattoo machine theory, you can make this machine do anything. Literally tune it to do anything.
That's my 2 cents and I'm really happy I got this one, will probably turn into my traditional workhorse.", "label": 1}

Many times in my journey as a college and professional athlete did I find myself in just such a scenario: confronted with the noise of the road, the loudness of movies being played, the uncomfortable seats, and, of course, the brightness of the outside light coming in at every large window. Added to these nuisances was the fact that I am one of the population of people for whom sleep is next to impossible in places that are not my bed.
Enter the Wrap-a-Nap into my life in 2010, and everything changed. The noise of the road and of movies was drastically muffled and reduced, and in my eyes the brightness of light was replaced by the calm of perfect darkness.
What's more--much more--is the X-Factor of softness and comfort with which the Wrap-a-Nap graces its wearer. This is what really sold me on this. The beautiful effectiveness of the Wrap-a-Nap is, almost inexplicably, more than the sum of its parts as a noise-reducer and light-blocker. The WAN cradles your head in a plush embrace, the fleecy shell and the soft filling are the stuff of which dreams-over-the-road are made.
There is a distinct satisfaction you feel when you try out the WAN in a place you crave sleep but have been habitually denied it. And then suddenly the forces of wakefulness--from within and without--fall under the Wrap-a-Nap's mighty powers of somnolence. I'm not kidding. Try it, and you will see; and then you'll want to log onto Amazon yourself and write a review like this for the WAN.
My days of athletics and bus-travel have ended, but my use of the Wrap-a-Nap continues. It's effective in any travel setting whatsoever. I also use it for naps on the couch in the living room, when the sun comes through my window in bed in the morning, and even at night when I'm trying to sleep and I need a little help nodding off. This thing goes around my forehead, I grab the iPad to read a bit, and before I know it I'm lulled into dreams. I love this thing, and I will always have one. The depth of sleep it ushers in is just too profound to go without.", "label": 1}

I mostly eat my meals at home so having something to keep me honest is very important, it is way too easy to just "add a little more" and the only person you end up cheating is yourself. I'm mostly a volume eater so having an enforced number of fruit and vegetable servings really helps to fill up the room I'd otherwise fill with carbs.
The containers are a lot sturdier than I expected, I was honestly expecting something along the lines of the semi-disposable plastic containers you can buy, but these containers feel like they're in it for the long haul! The purple fruit container holds a little bit more than your standard blueberry clamshell, so I think it is best if you mix up your berries a bit with a bulkier fruit. :)
If there's a tiny improvement that can be made, I would recommend putting a bit of a ridge on the lid edge to make the container easier to open, I am always afraid I'm going to end up wearing the contents of my orange fats/seeds container, but the original famous containers don't seem to have that either so I don't think it's a demerit point either.
A dish I like that fits into this plan is "peanut coodles". One or two green containers of spiralized cucumber noodles drained and blotted(depending on how hungry you are), tossed with this mix: an orange container not quite full of natural smooth peanut butter, melted with a bit of soy sauce stirred in. Sprinkle in a bit of sesame seeds (about the amount of room you left in your orange container) Absolutely refreshing and filling!

Really good selection, decent "sample" sizes.
My favorite item was the Gain fireworks in-wash scent booster. Love the way my laundry smells! I am a repeat customer now, where I never would have purchased this item before.
The hand soap is almost all used, even though it was full size. We use it daily, . Nice, light, citrusy scent. I would buy this again.
The Gain Flings were really nice when I had to go to a laundromat to do our laundry once. I would never normally buy these, but I certainly appreciated not having to lug a bottle of detergent around! So compact and convenient.
The Cascade detergent packs are very easy to use and I am very glad they are septic system safe. Probably not something I will purchase again, because cost is more important than convenience, to me. If I can buy them at a great price, I will definitely purchase them again.
I haven't used the finish detergent packs yet, mainly because the bag wasn't noticeably labelled that they were safe for septic use. I have had them for almost 2 months under the sink, meaning to give them away and I just went back and re-read the bag. It's a tiny sentence in the middle of a wall of words (ok, it's a longish paragraph). Not easy to find.
The planet Spray Cleaner is fine and I feel alright about using it on the kitchen counter, but it's nothing extraordinary. I will continue making my own solution and won't purchase this item in the future.

The first thing any manufacturer of any cloth diaper will tell you is that you have to wash it first or they won't be absorbent. Apparently there is "sizing" still on the fabric, and that acts as a water-resistant barrier till it's washed off. Let me be clear that I have NOT yet washed these, and today I didn't ask much of them. I don't feel like I can really say much about their absorbency, but that won't stop me. ;-)
First is the fit, which is tight. These run small, so be aware. I know they need to be snug in order to not have gaps wetness can get through, but these are really tight.
That aside, they fit well, coming up high enough in front and back. Also, the material in front--what your "tender bits" rub against all day, is very, very soft. The pad, just as advertized, goes up all the way in front and back, and--hazzah!--is full-width in front. Conni says there is an opening, and there is, but I have no idea how it could be a functional fly. I'm guessing it's there for those using a catheter or something. Honestly, I can't imagine being able to twist and wind your dude through that. But the point is that, unlike nearly every other brief I've tried, the "fly" in no way compromises or reduces the size of the pad.
I don't expect these to be very capacious, and press-out might be a serious issue when sitting, but these aren't a replacement for disposable absorbent underwear or diapers. If you need discreet protection that fits well and holds a few bursts, get the Depend Real Fit (it pains me to say that Depend has finally done something right, but they did). But if you have some dribbling and need something that will keep your fly dry, after a few washings I'm willing to bet these will be great.

I tend to like more floral or citrus-y smells and I'll admit I don't much like the smell of this product, it's very sweet and candy-like.

This was TEN MONTHS after our first date. I put the perfume on a book case and forgot it existed until I was deep cleaning the other day. As the same guy was coming over that night, I thought I'd put it to the test again and see if he behaved any differently. He commented on the scent, describing it as vanilla mixed with air freshener. Again, not a scent I would review with five stars if it hadn't been for the absolutely mind blowing sex that followed shortly after. As we've been dating for 8 months we've had plenty of sex and, while always satisfying, it can be somewhat routine when you're both tired from work.

For reference, I was a BlenderBottle+ProStak user for a number of years. I ran into the same issues others did with the screw-on top either eventually leaking or cracking. I was mostly interested in the ProStak capabilities of the bottle rather than the bottle itself. I tend to mix supplements/powders throughout the day so being able to carry them around in ProStak containers was helpful especially because they screwed on to the bottom of my 16oz (22oz when filled to the top) bottle. That was also a complaint I had! The ProStak capable bottles are way too small for my liking (i.e. not enough ounces).
Enter Hydra Cup!
Pros:
- 36oz capacity
- 2 separate compartments (22oz + 14oz) that don't leak/mix allowing for different supplements being pre-mixed
- No noisy BlenderBottle shaker ball
Cons:
- My investment in ProStak containers! My Hydra Cup bottom seems to be the same dimensions as the ProStak tops... if my Hydra Cup only had the slots I could twist my ProStak containers onto! :)
Concerns:
- This is a concern not a con (and hopefully won't be), the 4 clips that clamp the lid onto the bottle are plastic and lacking a true hinge or something to pivot on. You can see the plastic changing color where it bends to clamp onto the bottle. If there was a slightly different design that allowed for a small steel rod (or equivalent) there would be no strain on the plastic and possible point of failure. Like I said, this isn't a problem but I could see it being an issue especially if someone is mixing multiple times a day as I am. We'll see.
All in all, the best mixing bottle I've ever used and at an amazing price! I don't have any real complaints and I hopefully won't. Looking forward to what innovation comes next from Hydra Cup! Great product and recommended buy!", "label": 1}

Sleep masks are either too slippery, don't stay on, too transparent, not enough coverage, too uncomfortable/thick (too much coverage), or too small or too big or not adjustable around my head to fit right. It's neat that it has a soft side (I love during cooler weather) and a satin side (great for warmer weather). It's the perfect size ... not too little but not too big. I don't like to notice the sleep mask, it has to feel natural. I tried the memory-foam type ones and ones that seem sort of molded for "comfort," and they were awful. What's more -- they last. They last through washes, the velcro and elastic are not "cheap," they are strong and stay solid. I have had the same mask (my first one, a pink one, which was a gift) for over 5 years and it's still going strong. I have 5 of them just to rotate and keep them washed to keep my skin clean at night. I can't even recommend a runner-up ... this is the end-all, be-all.
P.S. If you try the masks with the headphones (so you can listen to tunes as you fall asleep), I just want to say how disappointed I was. I couldn't find a good, comfortable mask with built-in headphones. So when I want music at night, I just use headphones separately. Let me know if you find a great Earth Therapeutics light-weight sleep mask with built in headphones that don't add bulk and annoyance, ha ha!", "label": 1}

I began using this machine after becoming completely immobile for 2 years due to a full body toxicity crash from Lyme disease (which I actually believe happened in reverse order). And so this little brilliant machine really has been effective as a primary source of detox and encouraging lymphatic flow due to the ionic circuitry/flow that is created. Many people do not understand how this machine works but if you do a little more research you can come to understand how it works very easily. There are many naysayers calling this pseudoscience etc. etc. Don\u2019t listen to that. They state the obvious by noting that the water turns rust colored even if your feet aren\u2019t in it, thinking that it is a scam to make you think it\u2019s getting rid of toxins. The rust color, however is a reaction between the salt and the metal coils that is produced simply as a matter of chemical reaction. When I would wake up at at 2 AM with my head swimming from Lyme symptoms, it is the only thing that would get me back to sleep. It simply moves stuck toxicity through your body. The lymphatic system gets extremely blocked with chronic illness. Sometimes it is non-functioning, but doctors don\u2019t typically have the knowledge to explain this. Hence toxicity build up to the point of a full body shut down ( for me by age 43). I also recommend reading the book \u201c The Perrin Technique\u201d for help with CFS/EM. All about massage and flow of lymphatic system. The ionic footbath is a MUST in assisting with this process. It doesn\u2019t happen overnight. I recommend twice a week for three months, and then take a month off. And then once every two weeks for at least a year. I do 30 minutes at a time at a salt level of 1.5. Make sure you take multivitamins as too much detoxing can be depleting.", "label": 1}

On 3/14/13, I called Flab2Abs at 877-336-7610 to request a return authorization but got a recording to leave my name and phone number for a callback. Needless to say, never received a callback.

3-4 days later I mailed the unopened DVD back to Flabs2Abs and again sent an email with the reason for returning it and why not sending a recorded daily schedule showing I had followed the nutrition advice for at least 1 week. Needless to say, I did not receive a confirmation that the DVD was received.
On 4/17/13, the 60-day period expired and Flabs2Abs charged my card. I tried to call the company at 877-336-7610 but, guess what, the Flabs2Abs phone number is disconnected & no longer in use. I emailed them again & received this message (Hello, I'm investigating the issue and will get back to you. thanks!). Again no names mentioned. What kind of customer service is that?

I considered the OEM from Waterpik and the WyFun from Amazon and decided on the WyFun because of the lower price. Actually, the Waterpik model is only about $3 more but Waterpik charges $5.95 for shipping so there\u2019s a $9+ difference. Many of the reviews say the pressure from the WyFun is lower than the original Waterpik but I thought I\u2019d give it a try anyway. I definitely noticed a reduction in pressure when I first tried it and over time, decided that it wasn\u2019t enough so I bit the bullet and ordered the OEM from Waterpik. One of the first things I noticed in comparing the two was that the intake hole in the fitting that connects to the main unit was smaller on the WyFun unit vs the Waterpik by about 1mm. I then decided to give the two a somewhat scientific pressure test. I timed how long it took to transfer 12 oz. of water from the Waterpik unit (set on \u201c10\u201d) to a measuring cup. I did three tests for each hose/handle assembly. The WyFun averaged slightly over 1:20 (one minute, 20 seconds) for the transfer, the Waterpik was under 1:05. This tells me that the Waterpik hose/handle moves water about 23% faster than the WyFun. I\u2019m not hydraulics engineer but I think this equates to 23% more pressure from the Waterpik OEM hose/handle. The WyFun unit otherwise worked OK for me and if you normally run at a lower pressure, it\u2019s probably suitable, but if you want full pressure, the Waterpik OEM is the way to go. As a note, I did this testing during the covid-19 crisis under the stay-at-home orders so it gave me something to do.", "label": 0}

I heated this up in the microwave for a minute and it was so toasty and comfy. I added a little bit of the lavender oil and rested it on my shoulder neck area. The pad comforts very well to whatever spot of the body you use it on and made my neck feel so much better.
I love that it has a cotton side for cold use and a fleece side for heat use, that is something I have never encountered and I have been through many pack through the years since I also have very severe Migraine. One great thing about this pack is that it is reusable, 100% Natural, Handmade in USA, Eco Friendly, and Pet Safe, now that is one great pack and gives me piece of mine that it is natural and safe. This pack is so great I even like to just set it beside my bed at night when I have a headache and add the lavender to help me relax so i can fall asleep, and the lavender helps relieve some head pain. I really like this as the cold pack for my migraines and the scent of the lavender with the cold on my head feels so good when your in that much pain. This is a fabulous and well made hot & cold pack. It looks like it will not be falling apart or ripping any time soon and they offer a money back guarantee.
They truly have thought this hot/cold pack out when they made it and really made it even better by giving you a bottle of lavender oil, not just a pack filled with lavender and who knows what else, so if you don't want to add the lavender you don't have to. Also this is the perfect size for any body part that needs the hot or cold and the direction are right on the tag so you can't lose them.

I purchased initially for blackheads for my daughter but I didn't know at the time that it comes with 6 heads. It comes with 2 for blackheads, 2 oval shaped ones for wrinkles, one large round opening (for bigger blackheads? who knows), and one with a silver ring around it. The directions are useless so I had to google what the silver one was for and it turns out that it's for microdermabrasion and WOW does it work great! Assuming it's made like other brands with similar heads, the silver stuff is a diamond tip. I've been dying to get the (popular one at Ulta) with the little rotating disks that essentially are like a sander on your face but I was turned off at the prospect of having to replace the little disks (ie, throw them away, guessing they aren't recyclable).
I've been using the microdermabrasion head twice a week at the highest suction (test at the lowest first so you can get the hang of it) and my skin is SO SMOOTH after I use it! If you have any little rough patches of dry skin you can sort of go over them a few extra times and it rubs off and sucks up all of the flakes of skin.
I also tried the oval head for wrinkles last night and unsure of any lasting effects of it, but it definitely did plump my skin and my forehead wrinkles were temporarily \"gone\".
My only beef with this item is that it doesn't charge fully and it doesn't hold a charge very long. The first time I charged it, the display showed full battery but we only got 2 uses out of it before it went dead. Every charge after that, it only charged halfway. For the price and how effective it is, I don't have any complaints.
As for blackheads, it does work, but like I said, best to use after a shower when your skin is soft. The suction is strong but not too strong that it damages your skin, so you can go over the same area more than once if you need to, and even use several days in a row.", "label": 1}

These Coralite pain patches work exactly the same as those, except for one caveat... if you have sensitive skin and/ or suffer from eczema, you may want to really think on using these before you do. I suffer eczema, but I use these still for years, regardless. My eczema flares up in the one spot I use these patches on (after the 2 to 3 days in a row, a month) that I use these. The lower left of my stomach area is where I suffer great, unbearable pain, due to monthly cramps. If you have sensitive skin (eczema-related, or not), these will leave a mark when you pull off the patch. Using these long-term, as like how I do, that \"mark\" will eventually turn into a mildly-dark scar over time. At 50 years of age, this really doesn't bother me in the slightest.
These patches, once in place, after about 10 minutes of application, these patches do last 8 hours. And, there is a faint, cool menthol smell. The pain, as painful as my cramps are, completely disappear for 8 hours, the power of the medicine in the patches never waiver. I want to also add, that same with the previously used Salonpas patches, these Coralite patches do in fact make me tired, and I will knock out for a few hours... so, if wearing during the day, I make sure I will be at home.
I do want to mention that you get one packet of 20 patches per box, once opened, and after you get one, you need to either wrap up the opened package and put in a ziplock bag... or, you need to wrap it up pretty tightly with Saran wrap/ or, other plastic wrap.

The connection kept timing out for the final checkout. Never had this problem with Amazon before. I logged in two hours later and the order went through without problems. Since it is too late to correct the duplicate order, I can always use the second mannitol powder. It is the only low glycemic index sweetener that is not toxic and does not cause headaches, diarrhea, flatulence, and an unpleasant aftertaste. The culprits include Aspartame (Nutrasweet), Asulfame, Sucralose (Splenda), Xylitol, Sorbitol and Stevia. I have no clue why these are so highly rated - probably just marketing hype. Stevia and Sucralose may cause or exacerbate autoimmune diseases (Irritable bowel, MS, Lupus, RA, and others). For this reason, Stevia has not been approved by the European Commission, which is less subject to lobbying by food and supplement manufacturers than the FDA.
Even though most sugar alcohols (Sorbitol, Xylitol) cause irritable bowel due to the FODMAPS hypothesis, Mannitol is non toxic: it can be given intravenously to treat strokes or head injuries. Some of it is metabolized to glucose and is used by the brain for energy, and most of it is excreted by the kidney, taking excess water with it which reduces swelling of the brain.
The popularity of the other toxic sweeteners may also be due to their causing weight loss by promoting diarrhea by causing the irritable bowel syndrome. Fiber is IMHO a safer alternative than these toxic sweeteners for weight loss by decreasing absorption of carbs.
Also, the demonization of fructose by Dr. Lustig is due to the fact that if you drink a gallon of soda with HFCS a day, you will get fatty liver, as will happen with alcohol. The same will happen if you eat half a pound of "pure cane sugar" a day: sugar is glucose+fructose half and half which is about the amount of sugar in four quarts of soda. In moderation, light intake of fructose (as in fruits) is good for you, as tissues can burn fructose for energy without the need for insulin.", "label": 1}

First, the edges are made of a flimsy material that has a tendency to fold back on itself. This results in not completely covering the underwear between the leg holes. No matter how careful I am, I can't prevent the edges from folding and leaving some material uncovered. Therefore, urine can stain the parts of the underwear that are thus uncovered. While almost all of the leaking urine will be absorbed by the pads, it's very annoying that because of this design flaw you will still get a little bit on the underwear.
The second fault is apparently intended to be a feature since it's obviously an intentional part of the design. There is a protective pocket that holds each pad and this pocket is glued in a couple of places to the strip of thin plastic that covers up the adhesive part of the pad. So the pocket and the pad are actually one piece. You're supposed to remove the plastic material from the pad to expose the adhesive portion so it can stick to the underwear. But due to the pocket material being glued to the plastic covering it is impossible to take out the pad without also exposing the adhesive of the pad. I guess this was to prevent you from forgetting to expose the adhesive before putting it in the underwear. I think it's an indication of how needless this \"feature\" is when you realize that women's panty liners do not have a similar feature that automatically removes the plastic cover from the panty liner to expose the adhesive. I guess men aren't smart enough to figure this out.
So now you must be careful to throw away the pocket while still holding the sticky pad, or else try to carefully put down the pad without having it stick to something. That is stupid. I would like to be able to throw away the pocket while not exposing the pad's adhesive until I am ready to install it. Now it's certainly not impossible to work this out, but it's an unnecessary nuisance and it just makes no sense that they went out of their way to glue the pocket to the cover piece.
In spite of these annoyances I will likely continue to get these pads since they otherwise suit my needs and will comfortably absorb almost all of any liquid that I leak.", "label": 1}

* This is not intended to block ALL of the noise!!!
* Looking for an NRR rating? You clearly missed the point. Again. If you need a product for a purpose that requires an NRR rating, this is not for you. Probably an ESL course is more for you because you can't understand the point of this product.

If you go to loud concerts and events, THIS IS FOR YOU! They will allow you to actually hear and enjoy the music, but at a reduced volume level that is safer. I have been to many concerts in my life, some that were so loud that I had to use the traditional orange squishy things in my ears, but then I could not enjoy the music because I felt like my head was under water and I just didn't enjoy myself as much. This product is a unique alternative that is specifically designed to reduce the sound volume AND still be able to hear the music. Heading to a rock concert? Coachella? Burning Man? Lightening in a Bottle? Tomorrowland? Now you're talking. Buy these and give them a try. They do help reduce the noise without muffling the sound.

Once setup, it is easy to use WITHOUT THE VOICE and the readings are accurate as compared to an OMRON machine my wife uses. That said, this does take a bit longer than the OMRON.
The display is clear and easy to read and stores 99 readings for each of 2 users. It is easy to switch between users.
The device comes with a set of 4 AA batteries but also includes a USB A to C cable that can power the device. I was surprised that when I disconnected the USB cable to move the device from one room to another that my settings were saved so I did not have to go through reprogramming the date and time.
The verbal reading is helpful but with a thick accent. When I turn it off, I'm honestly not sure what the machine is saying - I think \"measure over\" but I'm not certain. I also find it odd that it reads out systolic and diastolic measurements as \"X millimeter or MERcury\" - I think just a number or even 106 millimeters but hearing \"of MERcury\" twice each reading will wear on me. There was some setting for PA which I turned off that gave a reading in some other measurement as well, but that was not useful to me.
Overall, this is easy to use (after setup) and does the job fine. The package includes the device, armband, batteries, a warranty card (12 months), USB cable, and a small carrying case.

I have used these the last 3 days to test them. I pulled on each brush to test the bristles. I had none come out when pulled gently, and I have not had any come out or shed while using them. They pick up a good amount of powder.
I read some reviews where people thought the bristles were a little stiff. I did not find that to be an issue. The brush with the tapered end is a little more stiff than the others but I did not find it overly so. It worked great as the main powder brush for my eyelids. The more fluffy brush with an angle was great for my crease powder.
I also loved the small angled brush. It is perfect to use as a liner brush and to also use on my brows.
The one thing I wish these had was a label on the handle of each brush listing what their use is. I can see this set being great for a teenager just staring to learn makeup and having them labeled would be an asset for them. For the more experienced user it is not an issue however.
I love that the case is not overly large. It is a little smaller than a toothbrush holder. It fits great in my makeup bag and as I mentioned, makes it easy to find all my brushes without the digging.
Attached are a picture of the brushes in the case with the top removed, and the taped lid brush with one swoop of loose powder.
I plan using my brush cleaner on them this weekend and will update if they do not hold up to being cleaned.
I am enjoying the quality of these, especially for the price. With the holidays coming these would make a great stocking stuffer especially for a teenage girl.
I plan on ordering a few for my nieces.", "label": 1}

You really want an all root product like this. the reports of liver damage - in Europe - seem to be associated with capsule product that included bark, stems and leaves.
Also - I have been booze sober for over two years now - But I have read a great deal that suggests booze and kava do not play well together. Seeing that they are both processed thorough the liver this would make very good sense. A night of drinking is not a good night to \"give kava a shot.\"
Start with just a couple large tablespoons the first time. See how you like that. Too much the first time can make you feel sick to your stomach. That isn't related to this product specifically - just kava in general. Forgo the capsules and such if you are looking for something that will have an immediate relaxing affect. Do t the way the islanders do it - make a proper drink from it. I have found the capsules to be a waste of time. Indeed - I have several bottles in my kitchen that have gone unused.
I have been buying this same product from this same company for over a year now and have never been disappointed.
Note - this will work as a mild to strong intoxicant depending on how much you take. You should treat this product just like any physical and mind altering substance (booze, pot, prescription drugs, Nyquil) and NOT DRIVE. Enjoy this in the comfort and safety of your own home.
I have read some say that there is no chance for a hangover. Not true. If you are feeling headachy or shaky the next day you have taken too much. I have been there. Adjust your dosage. Like anything - treat this with respect and you will come to join the many white folks like I who have come to enjoy this product.
Be sure and get yourself the kava strainer bag. DO NOT HEAT the product like a tea. Heat will break down the kavalactones in the product. You will be making a room temperature beverage - that will taste like mud.", "label": 1}

Hey fellow bloggers and readers! I will let you in on a little secret. I am probably one of the hardest people to get to eat well and be truly healthy like I should be at my age. I eat junk food A LOT and I this year in 2015 have really decided to change my course and try to be healthier for myself as well as for the family I have and future I am planning on having. This wellness begins with important products such as TrueSynergy Vitamin D3 that I was given to try. I have used this for over a week now and I will tell you I have noticed some changes in this short period of time.
TrueSynergy Vitamin D3 is a vitamin that will help to restore the deficiency you may have in Vitamin D which comes from the diet or the sunshine, a thing in Western New York we have seemed to have forgotten in these blistery months of Winter. A lack of Vitamin D can give an individual a lack of energy and they may find themselves fatigued or with weaker bones or possibly getting colds and flu a lot more frequently then usual. This supplement will help restore these lacking elements and provide you with natural results that will provide you with more sleep, less hypertension, stronger bones and a healthier immune system.
I am HORRIBLE at taking pills. I have a very hard time swallowing them, so I was concerned if I would have trouble with these capsules. The capsules are liquid and smaller than some of the other vitamin pills I have seen and were actually really easy to swallow as they slid right down. This took away my main concern. This 5000iu bottle is a very high potency, which can come across as scary, but you should not be alarmed. You simply just need to take a pill once every two days. This means your bottle will last you over 200 days!! At the price of the bottle that is a great deal!", "label": 1}

I have a horrible wave to my hair that I try to straighten to get rid of so when I saw this product I couldn't wait to give it a try. After receiving the product I read the directions and put it to the test. When I got the Brush Straightener out of the package, the first thing I noticed was the great quality of the straightener. It has a really nice weight to it, not too heavy yet not chincy either. The bristles have a reddish/ orange tip which do not get hot so you do not get burned, which is a great feature! The directions let you know what temperature you should set the brush at for different types of hair. After figuring out my hair type should be at a 195 degree temperature I turned it on by holding the power button for 3 seconds. The display screen lit up blue so I pushed the plus button to get it up to 195 degrees. This only shows degrees in Celsius not Fahrenheit. The display shows the temperature as it warms up so you know when it hits the temperature you need it at. It did not take long at all. I took sections of hair and brushed it with the brush straightener. You can go over sections more than once, I only had to do my really wavy sections twice the rest only needed one time over with the brush. It took 10 minutes for my full head to be done. This is going to save me a great deal of time getting ready in the mornings. It did take a while to cool down after I shut it off and unplugged it, but that is typical with any straightener. I am so happy I was able to try this Magnifeko Brush Straightener!

The bottle itself is of decent quality. There are some minor blemishes on some of the rubber padding on the bottle, but that isn't that big of a deal to me. Similar to other customers, I also experienced some leakage when using this bottle. A little annoying to have to work around something like this when that is the main function of the bottle, but it is possible to use without making that big of a mess. That being said, the size of the bottle is great, and the fact that you can store your protein/other powders in the removable container on the bottom of the bottle is a very nice feature for people who are on the go a lot but still need to get their supplements in.
The BCAA powder definitely isn't "flavorless" in the true sense of the word. The flavor was a little medicine tasting, but isn't the most unpleasant thing you will ever taste or anything like that. Mixed with other flavored drinks or juices, this powder is hardly noticeable. The amount of BCAAs you get with this product is very nice compared to a lot of other products out there, so you can expect to feel a lot better after workouts and be that much more ready for your workout the next day. BCAA supplements are a must have for anyone who is serious about hitting the gym hard and often, so I would definitely recommend picking up this supplement to help you with that journey.
Overall, I would definitely recommend picking up the BCAA powder from this company. Even though the taste isn't very pleasant, it will help you get the results you are looking for by helping you push yourself harder and recover faster. I don't think I can recommend the shaker bottle in this package however, simply due to the fact that I have plenty of other bottles that function much better without any leakage.

Not willing to live without we ordered a slightly different one than this in the same brand, but when it didn't show up we were refunded and this was all that was in stock. Having had good luck with the brand previously we went for it even though it was quite a bit more expensive.
The truth is, it's hard to put together. The arms did not want to fit no matter what I did. In the end, as a 6'4\" 220 pound man I had to push as hard as I could on one side while two members of my family pushed on the other in a particular direction in order to mount each arm. Even then it took a while to get it in place and we were all soaked in sweat. After each armrest was in place it was pretty easy, but there absolutely no way I could have pulled it off on my own.
Once we got it up and running, it would get stuck in it's \"sensing\" mode where it determines your body size and shape. It would go for 20 minutes and then start over for 20 more minutes. We were convinced it was broken for about a day. What we discovered is that you have to sit dead center with your legs in a certain position and stay pretty still, but after we figured that out it usually only goes into sensing mode for about the first 30-90 seconds after you turn it on.
So, all of that said, why is it still a 4*? Because it's straight up magic once it gets going. I wish it had each of the modes that my old one had, and honestly, the \"stretch\" mode is pretty weird the way it contorts your body, but the rest of the auto modes that are there hit all the right spots, with variable pressure, temperature and time through the menu, and the speakers are a nice upgrade from our old one.

Remember back when vibrators required batteries? Yeah, no more of that inconvenience!
My wife and I purchased this and gave it a little test run. First of all, you turn it on by holding the middle button down for a few seconds. Then, you can cycle through the various vibration patterns until you find one that you like. You can take a look at my attached video to see (rather, hear) all of the patterns. The ones we preferred were the first few with the good old fashioned steady vibration in low/medium/high intensities. We found the construction of this vibrator to be perfect. It\u2019s soft and sleek with no seams or rough edges.
Back to being rechargeable. We didn\u2019t run the battery completely down yet so I can\u2019t comment on battery life. To charge it, you simply plug the special cable into the end \u2013 it looks like a headphone jack on one end with a USB on the other. The vibration isn\u2019t exactly quiet, but isn\u2019t the loudest we have seen either.
As far as inserting this vibrator, it is rather small \u2013 maybe the diameter of a quarter at the largest point. It\u2019s also pretty short as seen in my pictures. We used this primarily for external (clitoral) stimulation. My wife gave it a rock solid FIVE STARS and says she\u2019s throwing out all of the old battery-powered toys now! This one will definitely be making repeat appearances in our bedroom.
Bottom line: smooth, sleek, powerful\u2026 rechargeable! This is a nice vibrator and is replacing some of our older ones. The wife LOVES it!

However, if you try that, even on a slick wall, it falls apart in your hands. It's like trying to clean your car's exterior with Kleenex! And even if you can rub it over a surface, gently, and keep it in one piece... it has absolutely no ability to clean! None! You would do better to spit on your fingers and rub them on the surface.

I was in an office out somewhere and it was already quiet in the room. All I could hear was this loud constant whoosh and it rivaled the noise in my head. I could not stand it.
But my husband started running a box fan in the bedroom at night and I was getting cold. Not to mention dust I'm allergic to would fly if it'd been a few days after vacuuming. I thought of this unit. I was already used to the fan noise at night. This thing had to improve the shiver/dust situation.
Oh, did it. It's become essential for my husband to get good sleep at night, and I've noticed when it's off that I go to sleep better and faster once I turn it on, especially now that I'm not freezing from all that blowing box fan air.
Months later I realized I was constantly agitated from high noise levels in a poorly sound-proofed home, but didn't know how to fix it. In the meantime, I'd bought a unit for my dad because trains were waking him up at night. However, it annoyed him like it had first annoyed me, so he didn't continue to use it. Then I thought of this unit and wondered if it might actually help mask the daytime noises, so Dad let me bring it home.
I regret not getting one sooner.
In a noisy environment, this thing gives me peace of mind. In my home office I can finally think when my husband is watching the yapper (TV) in the other room. And the kids and dogs amping up the noise, along with my constant companion, Tinnitus, fade away in this sweet, soothing whoosh.
My tinnitus makes me sensitive to high pitched noises, so I'm grateful I can adjust the pitch to what feels best to my ears. Perhaps that's why the first unit I heard drove me nuts--wrong pitch for me. I close most of the top and side holes for a lower pitch. Open them for a higher, louder pitch, and I start climbing the walls, but others might like it much better than what feels good to my being.
This was by far a valuable purchase for us and I recommend it to anyone needing some mental solitude in a loud environment.", "label": 1}

HP is a known chemical that comes with no surprises. It cleans and disinfects quite well given the chance. I read through a few reviews and found some to be a little harsh on the price. It doesn\u2019t surprise me that it\u2019s $25. for the gallon (where\u2019d the $40. price come from?). Buying ANY liquid online and having it shipped is going to cost extra.

The GreenFist product has worked well for me in the applications I\u2019ve tried it on. But my favorite \u201cbefore and after\u201d was on the cream colored grout in my guest bathroom.

Fish Disease: Diagnosis and Treatment 2nd Edition
By: Edward J. Noga
I downloaded this 500+ page book. The picture I've included with this review is directly from that book showing the treatment methods and correct dosing using Fenbendazole.
I reached out to Thomas Labs to ask if they'd heard about this bath method, about its safety, and if they recommend it.
They did not respond.
After 21 days of Seachem Paragaurd (WCs every other day) and 10 days of Prazipro (WCs every three days and redosing) didnt work I started looking for some serious help. I will clarify that both medications did help temporarily relieve symptoms only to have them come back almost immediately after treatment.
I used the 12 hour bath treatment on my Betta fish. I will do a second bath treatment 7 days later to be sure they're all gone.
I was extremely nervous about doing this bath as I had limited knowledge of others using this treatment safely.
My Betta showed no serious signs of stress. I did observe some yawning, a couple of deep breaths where her gills went out slightly further than a normal breath and she did dart about (flashed) very briefly 4/5 hours in. She swam about like she normally does and readily accepted food 5 hours in. Some of the medication settled in the tank and I did have to stir it up again every hour or so.
\"Fenbendazole works by binding to the beta-tubulin within the microtubules and inhibiting their formation, resulting in disruption of cell division. This potent disruption blocks the parasite's ability to produce energy, starving the parasite until it dies.
What makes fenbendazole unique is that it is more attracted to parasite beta-tubulin than that of the animal being treated.\u00a0\" Merck Animal Health Oct 2018
When medicating your fish make sure to have a separate clean tank set up to transfer the fish into if there are adverse reactions to the medication and for when you've finished treatment.
To get rid of Flukes in your aquarium, let your display tank run for a minimum of three weeks, heated and filtered normally before reintroducing your fish.", "label": 1}

Or if you stepped on a dog's land mine while walking barefoot in the park? The whole idea is gross, but if it's your butt I guess smelly and dirty is ok.

I have had the GoBidet in my bathroom for 4 years now. It is a great unit for existing homes because most homes don't leave room for a stand alone bidet. This little unit converts your toilet to a Bidet. With a handy pull of a lever the spray arm swings out from its hiding place under the toilet rim like a James Bond Gadget. The spray head is aimed at the bulls eye. You pull a second lever that controls the strength of the spray. It goes from gentle to colonic geyser. After your done, you pat dry with some toilet paper. All done.
The neat thing about this product is you can install it in about 15 minutes usng your existing toilet seat. It uses the water supply that fills the tank on the toilet. It can be plumbed for hot as well as cold water as well. The hot water installation looked a little more complex, so I thought I would see how it worked with just cold.

(If having issue with that, put in blender and run on high for a bit till dissolved -- the heat of agitation will help -- then pour in bowl.

Experience improves the result. :-) When you run out of room, put them in another bowl temporarily and keep going until you are out of batter. Then put all the noodles in the water, add lid and put in fridge for a few hours to fully finish firming up. These can then be stored either in that water or without it for about a week.

I called everyone I knew who is like this and told them about it. Just try it. I hope it works for you it has for me.

You'll have the under-the-bed strap with 4 hook clasps, 4 soft velcro wrist and ankle secures and 1 flat pleather sided and a non-adjustable soft fabric sided flat eye mask. This comes in a discreet solid silver package so no one will have any idea what your package contains. This kit did not come with instructions but in all honesty I didn't really need one. The set up was rather simple, you'll need to lift your mattress and put the ankle/wrist on the sides of the bed, two near the top and two near the bottom of the corners. You may choose to put the wrist restrains at the head of the bed if you so choose. The main strip should be located under the middle section of your mattress. Then clip your remaining cuffs to the silver metal D ring and you're ready to go!
The velcro closures used for this kit are remarkably strong. With all the tugging I found that these did a great job restraining myself to the bed. For as affordable these restraints are ($13.99 with Prime) these hold up very well, are super comfortable. The cuffs have a soft velvet like interior and and will make your sexual encounter more comfortable. I'm 4"11 and was able to tighten the straps to my desired liking.

The typical drain cleaners from the hardware store along with plunging help partially for a while, but this time my sink got so clogged that just washing my hands would fill the sink halfway and it would drain at a trickle, so I knew I needed to try something different. I researched and decided upon this product after watching their video. Last night, I poured one cup of the thick liquid into my sink drain and let it sit overnight (leaving the bathroom window open a crack to allow the smell out even though it is cold outside). After breakfast, I filled a large pitcher with hot tap water and poured it into the bathroom sink. I must say, I was completely blown away by the fact that the water drained instantly! My sink hasn't worked like that in years!
After the pitcher was empty, I turned the hot water on, which takes a bit to get upstairs into that tap, and continued to flush the pipe to try to get the smell of the product out. The smell is most definitely lighter than the smell of the other drain products I've tried, but I have a sensitive nose, so could still smell it every time I ran the water until it was flushed out enough. I cleaned my sink with unscented natural all-purpose cleaning spray in case the smell was in the sink itself, but it was in the pipes. It did disappear after flushing it for many minutes, but it is definitely worth it to have the water go down the drain immediately!
Tonight, I will unclog my shower drain with this product and I'm looking forward to my feet not being in a pool of water every time I shower. (I didn't want to do both drains at once in my small bathroom due to the smell.)
My best guess at the cause of my clogs is a buildup of Aquaphor (for healing tattoos), Advanced Silicone Gel (for diminishing scars), soap, hard water, and hair. This product cut through it very well! I highly recommend it.
I am using this on a septic system, so hopefully it is safe like the manufacturer says!

The handle has too much play in it. It wobbles back and forth - enough to make you feel like you're losing your balance. I contacted Amazon by phone. Learned that it's not returnable but that doesn't mean too bad for you. It means they don't want to pay to ship it back. The customer service rep ordered me another one at no cost and told me I could donate the wobbly one. I put it out on the street. In my neighborhood, things get picked up in less that 24 hours. This stool stayed for 4 days before someone took it. I got my second stool and it was exactly like the first one. This time I called the manufacturer to see if I was doing something wrong or missing a connector piece or something. They have been responsive but I have spent HOURS on the phone with them. They are saying that the handle doesn't pull out so it's fine. They don't seem to understand the point.
The comment from more than one person that you shouldn't use the handle to step up on the stool, only to stabilize yourself after you're already up - I'm sorry. That's not right. It's a big step. How are you supposed to get up? The whole reason I bought the version with the handle was for help getting up.
Follow up. I went in person to a local medical supply store. They did not have this bariatric version but they did have one that looks the same, model 13031SV-KD. The handle is stable and secure. That's what I'm going to get.
Don't buy this model.", "label": 0}

Vitamin D3 is critical for staving off some really miserable conditions like depression, fatigue, obesity, alzheimers and skin problems. Studies have found that anywhere from 40% - 75% of people in the U.S. are deficient in D3. (Depending on which study you're looking at) I love this gummy form because it's so easy to take! I hate swallowing pills, so if I can get something in a gummy candy, I do it! This is an excellent vitamin to take, considering how beneficial it is and how common deficiencies are. I had a vitamin D3 deficiency and after taking a 5,000iu daily D3 supplement for only 2-3 weeks, (my doctors advice) I noticed a big improvement in my energy level and in the appearance of my skin.
If you have any of the conditions that I mentioned, such as frequent fatigue, your doctor can give you a blood test to find out what your blood levels are of D3, B vitamins and any others you suspect you may be deficient in. If you don't want or can't afford to go to a doctor, trying this D3 supplement is a safe and easy way to rule out a deficiency in this vitamin. If you take this and in two to three weeks you find that you have more energy, among other things -\u00a0 you most likely had a D3 deficiency like roughly half the population does. Do a little research on dosages, because there are several factors that you need to take into consideration when you take D3 long-term. D3 is a fat-soluble vitamin, which means that it IS possible to get too much. It can become toxic and that can cause some problems. (Eg. Kidney stones, nausea) You need to consider how much sunlight you get, for instance - whether you use sunscreen, do you live in Alaska, or Arizona- things like that.
This is a very easy, inexpensive supplement to take and it can make an enormous difference in how you look and feel.", "label": 1}

- It is poorly designed for an average person's nose bridge and eye socket. The designers chose a profile that does not fit 95% of people. The nose ridge area needs to be wider and 'sloped' back to allow average person to have it fit comfortably. I had six people try it on and it did not fit a very small nose to a larger one.
- Average eye glasses could have been used to create a design that fits most people. I have never had to get customized glasses for size fit. Most people can wear off-the-shelf glasses. Disappointing that the designer did not undertand human physiology.
- The heat is almost non-existent compared to a mask that can be heated in a microwave. With the plethora mask available, it is shameful that the designer did not consider the measurement in this design. I have used several brooder mask from cheap to expensive and never had a fit issue. Because of poor design of the nose ridge, the eye portion of the device does not even come close to a normal person eye width. Again, even cheap sunglasses could have been a design prototype
- The massager does not work as claimed nor is it possible for it to work since all it does is make noise to pretend it is working! Shameful
- I saw a lot of talk about music in the reviews. That was not an important feature for me but it seems to be ok. I think lot of reviews are not used to reike type music.
- The hard case (I know it is needed to house the motors) is a big design flaw when a normal human skull size is not considered. It barely fit a small person let alone normal or large person
- The temple thumper is way too aggressive and may cause some injury. I am not sure why it is not mentioned in any reviews. It is almost dangerous on how hard it pushes on your temples
- The strap is designed for a ten year old child's head and not an average human adult.

I use the bed alarm and it functions well. If you are in a similar situation this product will allow you to go to sleep or go about your day confident that your loved one will not get up without you knowing.
I place the sensor pad on the bed beneath her shoulders so I know when she's sitting up. This gives me plenty of time to get to her before she tries to get up on her own. I place it underneath the bed sheet and bed pad used for toileting. Check the position of the pad each time you make the bed to make sure it hasn't slipped. It is very effective and has not failed me as long as the sensor pad is positioned correctly. I am running through the batteries, so will purchase the AC adaptor for use at night.
If I were to improve this product:
1) Make more volume levels. The lowest is still loud enough to travel through walls. It is important, for the person's dignity, for them not to feel so monitored. To keep from bolting out of bed at night I have put a piece of duct tape over the speaker, and sometimes put it under the covers with me.
2) Make the alarm unit lighter and smaller so it can be worn or easily carried in a pocket.
3) Make a variety of alert sounds that don't sound like alarms. Even the chime sounds alarmy.
4) Make it rechargeable.
5) Make the resetting of the alarm unit more obvious.
Note: I do not use the chair pad for a variety of reasons. For the person's dignity, the pad should be camouflaged. That is difficult when she's sitting on a couch. She moves around from couches to chairs several times during the day and its not practical to try to position the sensor on every one or to run around putting it down before she sits (re: dignity). I keep the chair pad in case we get to the point where she is in a wheelchair during the day. Right now she's using a walker.

This is exactly what I was looking for. My allergist had gave me a prescription for Flonase Nasal Spray when it first was manufactured many years ago.

My allergist then prescribed the Fluticasone Propionate Nasal Spray, which is a generic form of the Flonase Nasal Spray. Now the insurance companies refuse to cover this medication, because you can buy it over the counter. This was good, however, I needed a bulk amount, because I use this spray on a daily basis.

They honestly make my all time favorite protein bar, their primal thin sweet cream...which if you're reading this, you may not want to try because you may be vegan, which I am not, just vegetarian with vegan leanings, and that bar has whey in it. So, of their vegan bars, I've tried three. This was my least favorite, I actually liked the cinnamon twist the best.
So, what was interesting to me about this bar was the protein source...watermelon seeds. I was super curious about how that would work out in terms of flavor, so curious I didn't pay attention to the fat content on the nutritional label when I ordered it, and it is generally higher then I want in a protein bar because I have some fat restrictions on my diet, so to eat these I have to make adjustments elsewhere. And honestly the watermelon seeds were probably what gave it the slightly bitter aftertaste that I wasn't so sold on.
These bars are high in fiber, which I think is great, but not as high as their ginger snap cookie protein bars, which use pumpkin seeds. I do really like that they use more natural ingredients. I can not say enough how big of a fan of that I am. I do like that these have a bit of iron, because I tend to save their pegan or vegan bars for my period because I generally need a boost of that nature then, but this bar doesn't have as much iron as either cinnamon twist or ginger snap.
The texture is a bit dryer then their egg white sunbutter bar which I love the taste of ...my apologies for offending any vegan sensibilities on that one :) So for me, the texture wasn't an issue, I kind of like that it doesn't stick to my teeth as bad as the egg white sunbutter one, but the star came off for the bit of an aftertaste. I think the all natural ingredients thing totally trumps the slightly bitter aftertaste, but because they have bars I like better that work better for both my fat content preferences/needs, I doubt I'll be ordering this one again. I do think it's a solid enough bar, and probably if you like a little bit of the flavor of watermelon seeds you'll do just fine with this one.", "label": 1}

I came to the realization, with the assistance of a Resident in Psychiatry, that something had been and was terribly wrong: I listened to her concerns, then did the research and found all of the evidence that I was suffering from Dopamine depletion. I made a decision to stop the pharms and as soon as the L-Phenylalanine arrived, I took one capsule. The results have been amazing. I used to feel cold so much of the time, it was absurd. An hour after taking one capsule, my body felt warm and vibrant and I no longer feel cold in what would be considered warm temperatures. In the past months, my sense of humor has returned. I am more organized and am able to focus quite well PLUS do not have the feeling of being a machine that is pushing itself beyond what is natural in order to concentrate. What's more is that as much as I am energetic, I am calm. My thought processes are no longer tangential and I'm able to stay "on topic"... not so with the Psych meds I'd been taking.

If you ask me, it's not worth your time. And, here is why:
1. I initially ordered the test for myself because I had a rash on my hand for about a year that wouldn't go away. Shortly before ordering the test, I stopped eating all nuts, and it cleared up within a week! I wanted to get an allergy test done anyway so that I knew for sure it was nuts (I didn't want to avoid them for the rest of my life it that wasn't even the problem). When I got the results back, nuts were NOT listed as an intolerance for me (YAY!) so I starting eating them again.... and guess what, the rash came back.
2. My husband already knows he has a shellfish allergy (his hands swell up big time), but that didn't show up on his test. Hmmmm....
3. I find it kind of odd that "bread, baguette" was on the list for me. So just bread?? Baguettes, specifically? What about crackers or pasta? Did they mean gluten? I'm confused. This seems really vague to me. In fact, all of the results were vague and disappointing.
4. Cats were listed as an intolerance for my daughter, but she sleeps with our cats every night and has no known allergies or symptoms to anything. I simply ordered the test for her out of curiosity.
5. The list of foods that came back on all of our test results as intolerances have never been a problem for us. But the foods that DO seem to be problematic for us, DID NOT show up on our results.
To be fair, I don't think any allergy test is 100% accurate. The only way to know for sure if your body is reacting to something is through trial and error. In my experience, you have to eliminate one thing from your diet at a time that you suspect may be a problem for several weeks, and then see if you experience any improvement.", "label": 0}

But to make it up to me they also upgraded me to 2-day shipping for free and gave me a nice discount. I'd say that makes it worth it.

If I ordered the ingredients in bulk, or even just through a combination of cheaper products that have the same ingredients, I'm sure I could have the same thing for less than half the price, even with the discount. So what you're really paying for it the convenience of the all-in-one Energy and Focus pill.
The product works well for me, better than coffee and with fewer side-effects. Unlike coffee, Optimind (or anything with isolated caffeine) does not have a significant laxative effect. However, the caffine can produce a mild laxative effect for some people, especially those who are sensitive to it. The nootropic compounds won't work miracles, but for me they do seem to have a subtle positive effect on focus and mental clarity. There's varying amounts of research supporting how well they work, but no really strong scientific meta-analyses. I recommend research the individual ingredients with examine.com to learn more.
It's also important to note that we don't know how much of each ingredient (especially the nootropic ones) is present is Optimind. So the amounts they put in might not be enough to really produce a noticible or significant effect. It won't hurt to take them, unless you're alergic or have liver disease, but like I said - alone it won't work miracles either. If you want to strongly feel those effects consider making your own blend or supplementing with more of the nootropic compounds, or other ones.

I may just have to place an order once a month so I can stock up on it. I\u2019ll be using it often anyways. It smells exactly like the original one, so I believe it\u2019s the real deal. I understand the price is only high because they don\u2019t make it anymore.", "label": 1}

I had a little trouble installing the scale. I am a senior but reasonably computer savvy. Finally I used an alternate installation route suggested and that worked. Of course it measures your weight, but also BMI and body fat %. And it all syncs automatically to your PC. I'm looking forward to FitBit getting an app for my Windows phone.
I decided to add some additional info about the setup after reading some of the other reviews. I am a 74 year old senior and as I said reasonably computer savvy. I did use Geek Squad to install my WiFi two years but didn't think I would have any problems as I have installed other programs. Well I have no idea what Ethernet is, and wasnt about to pull out cables from my computer if I could figure out which cable to pull out! But after trying for about 30 minutes I decided to use the alternate method suggested with my iPad (I have a windows phone so couldn't go that route). After a couple of false starts I was able to get connected. I had the scale on my desk next to the PC (my floors are carpeted) and after I connected I took it upstairs to the master bath and it works great. I figure if this 74 year old can do it anyone can. I figure all this computer work is keeping my brain young, and hopefully I'll be able to keep up with my 6 year old grandson!
One other note: I was a little concerned about the body fat % as it seemed high to me. BMI was normal. Anyhow I went on line and found a chart that was age adjusted and that was normal. So even though I know this isn't the most accurate way to measure body fat it still was a relief to know that I wasn't out of line.", "label": 1}

Although made of glass, it is sturdy enough for every day use as long as you don't use it as a trampoline. So no jumping and jiggling it to try to get the thing to forget about that chocolate eclair and the two brownies you binged on! And definitely drop kickicking it when you discover you have gained weight over the holidays.
I compared it to my weight on my doctors scales. My old scales were off by 3 lbs (they were 3 lbs lighter, so I have mixed feelings about tossing it out). This scale was dead on! Guess I will have to lose those pesky 3 lbs. At least it has a bright, easy to read display so that my bleary old eyes can read it as I stumble into the bathroom each morning. Some days, I'm not sure that is such a good thing...Remember, if your self-image is inextricably tied up with the numbers on the scale, you need to weigh yourself first thing in the morning, at the same time each day, making sure to give that special someone a thrill by weighing yourself in the buff. And make sure to do this before you eat or drink. Even then, expect some fluctuations due to water weight. This is especially true for women due to hormonal variations, but if you happen to have grazed your way through a bowl of nachos, gobbled down a bag of salty chips, indulged in a pizza, or hit the local salt lick, expect to weigh more the next day regardless of your sex.
Note: I had chucked my old scales out weeks earlier, so when I first looked at my weight on this thing, my heart leaped for joy. Then, I realized the scale was in kilograms. It took multiple tries on my part to convert it to pounds, so hang in there. It will come around. Of course, you may not be all that happy when it does. I rather liked only weighing 45% of my normal weight.", "label": 1}

I also have a couple of cons, which I will list below. But even with the cons I can\u2019t find any masks that work as well and are made in the USA. I will continue to use and purchase these!
Pros
1. Made in the USA.
2. Neck strap!! My boys are going to school and I like knowing they won\u2019t be setting their masks down random places.
3. Easy for my kids to put on! No ties or anything like or previous masks that hung from our necks. Schools won\u2019t be able to help students with their masks so I had to make sure my boys could put the mask on and off alone.
4. Thick, can\u2019t feel my breath on the other side; even without an additional filter.
5. Super soft and doesn\u2019t bother or pull on our ears.
6. Washable!! We wash ours at the end of each day and have had no problem after many weeks of doing this.
Cons
1. We had one (out of 16 masks) that had a seam separate. Not that big a deal since it was just one out of the 16 I purchased. I can fix it myself.
2. Thick, we live in the south and it gets very hot in these masks!!
3. Only two solid colors to choose from. My son would like to wear some of the cooler looking masks he sees other kids wear but he understands these are best for where they are made and with the neck strap.
4. No nose piece to form the mask to your nose. We all wear glasses and when you walk out the door in the south and are hit with humidity a mask that doesn\u2019t block the breath well makes it worse. I\u2019ve gotten to where I don\u2019t wear my glasses when I have my mask on.
5. Again, the black color is VERY HOT to wear. We know they sell white but we agreed as a family that looks like we are wearing underwear on our face!! Lol So we will deal with the hotness.", "label": 1}

The print wasn't very good even for that time and it was billed as a horror movie which it wasn't but still, even at that young age, I was moved by Peter Lorre's acting and the plight of his character. He plays a Hungarian immigrant, newly arrived in America, whose face is disfigured in a hotel fire. Although he possesses many skills, no one will hire him. On the verge of suicide he is rescued by a sickly thief (George E. Stone) and embarks on a life of crime until he meets a blind girl (Evelyn Keyes). He then tries to change his ways but Fate has other plans.
What makes this little 1941 film so remarkable is that it was shot in less than 2 weeks for around $100,000 and was planned as a B movie all the way. Based on a radio play, the screenplay was tailored specifically for Peter Lorre. who, although he disliked the script, gave a wonderful performance. The movie was directed by the undervalued French born director Robert Florey who had worked with Bela Lugosi on MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE (1932) and would work with Lorre again on THE BEAST WITH FIVE FINGERS (1946). Like the best B movie directors, Florey knew how to use lighting and camerawork to enhance his projects.
For all of its video life up until now, FACE has existed only in substandard public domain copies with poor sound and even poorer visual quality. I had a Region 2 VHS copy for years. It was all that was available for the longest time. The currently available download/streaming copies are just as bad. Sony Pictures, who own the Columbia Pictures library, have never released this one to home video. This Blu-Ray was issued by Imprint who specialize in collector's editions. It comes with two short features by film historians Alan K. Rode and Kim Newman plus a commentary track by Rode.", "label": 1}

The others were mostly yellow except for the 3 that were lavender with like 2 purple sprinkles on top.. So obviously I did not receive a wide variety of colors. But I knew it was a gamble. As far as the "scents"..not even sure exactly how to explain it - perhaps if there was a perfume that smelled of soap..? It just smells like baking soda with a perfume like cheap soap scent. Not a single 1 smells any different from the others. Even my 12 year old daughter wanted to order from Lush, Fortune Cookie Soap or BathHouse immediately. I gave the remaining 44 to my Mother in law. She is not really a soak in the bath type of lady, she does not order products like this & she said that they "seemed okay enough".. "just fine, nothing special" to her.
Oh well, now I know right. These are perfect for little girls. My daughter would've loved these when she was about 6-7 years old.
There are FAR to many lovely products on the market to waste money on products like this. I can use 1/2 of a Fortune Cookie Soap "Bath Melt" or "Bath Bomb" & not only do I smell wonderful all day & into the next morning but my entire bathroom, bedroom & hallway smell so good. I wasn't expecting that..really I wasn't. But I was expecting something..
To the people whom gave 5 Star reviews..order from FCS, BathHouse Soapery or LUSH just 1 time & see how it's done. Or go on Pinterest, look up a recipe & make them yourself at home bc it's truly not difficult, time consuming or expensive. My friend made some on a whim & they were smaller than these but they were better as far as scent, color, fizz & softening your skin as well.

A convenient-to-use spoon is included (to get the spoon, I had to shift the powder around a bit, as the spoon was totally immersed in the powder, and not visible when I first removed the protective seal)
I added a spoon of the powder to 1- cup (via measuring cup) of plain water into a mug. I stirred and stirred. After about 1-2 minutes of somewhat vigorous stirring, the powder dissolved. I couldn't see any significant amounts of the powder remaining. (see pictures).
The taste was somewhat bland, with a slight vanilla flavor.
I did the same thing; but this time, added 1/2 cup (via measuring cup) of plain water. The vanilla flavor was a bit stronger. I prefer this combination of 1 spoon of powder and 1/2 cup of water, just because I like to taste the vanilla flavor more.
I added a spoon of powder to my smoothie. Smoothie tasted fine.
I added a spoon of powder to my refrigerated orange juice. Juice tasted fine.

I have noticed a big big difference in how white my teeth have become and this product is food grade. To be honest, this stuff is really messy. So the instructions say to wet the toothbrush and dip it into the powdered charcoal and brush your teeth. I tried this first and I did notice a slight difference in coloring. My biggest problem was the texture. I did not like having that powder in my mouth. It was so dry that it wasn't comfortable. So I decided to experiment with the charcoal and toothpaste. It is so much better. What I did was I took a tube of brand name toothpaste which I had bought from Dollar Tree and combine that with a few tablespoons of charcoal. I tried to blend it as best I could and added a splash of mouthwash to smooth the texture. It turned out wonderful. I had my best friend try my experiment and I had him try the powder. We both agree that the experiment is more successful because it is the closest thing to actually brushing your teeth normally. it is still kinda messy so I would recommend to brush using the charcoal while in the shower. I typically use the charcoal first and then I go back over it with a regular toothpaste. Because the charcoal doesn't freshen your breath. Even my experiment doesn't freshen breath. The purpose of my experiment was to make the charcoal easier to brush with. Next topic is a charcoal face mask. This application of charcoal was kinda a bust because I don't think it worked. To make the mask, mix 2 teaspoons of charcoal with pure water /rose water/aloe gel to make a paste. Apply to face and let dry. Gently wash off. It had two optional ingredients which were coconut oil and honey. I tried it with just water and it didn't seems to do much. Worse of all, I couldn't get all of it off. So I had a dingy look for the rest of the day. Overall, I would recommend this product to any who was trying to whiten their teeth with out the huge bill.", "label": 1}

The only problem is that every time I go to the emergency room or the doctor, the test results always come back Negative or Inconclusive so I've always been given antibiotics regardless. I got tired of that and decided to finally visit a Urologist hoping I'd be given a more conclusive answer. Disappointedly, I did not. He performed a physical test, a cystoscopy (OMG does that hurt!!!!!!) and finally, when he couldn't find anything, a CT scan (which is SUPER EXPENSIVE). Not surprisingly, nothing was found. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and gave this D-Mannose Powder a try. I'm very glad I did. It works very fast and lasts very long. The most I've had to take it was 4 times in one day with my worst symptom (i.e. excruciating can't-think-of-anything-else-but-the-pain and want-to-rip-out-my-bladder pain). It really works. I've also tried Solaray CranActin but I find this works so much better and faster for me and don't have to even take it every day. Of course, everyone is different so what works for me might not work as well for you BUT I definitely suggest you give it a try. I usually drink it with plain ol' water and it doesn't taste like much; it kind of sweetens the water a bit, which I find pleasant because I hate drinking water. As far as "curing" anything, I can't say. I haven't been diagnosed with anything specifically but it has significantly lessened my discomforts and has certainly done much more work than the ER, Doc, and Urologist combined.

I'm not joking, I legitimately bought four different cushions to try to make sitting at my desk for hours on end less uncomfortable. I tried the Comfilife cushion that has awesome reviews, plus a wedge-shaped cushion and a cushion/back support combo. The Comfi-Life came close, but for me it still wasn't quite right. While it was made of memory foam, it was extremely firm. The tailbone support idea is nice in theory, and I can see how the cutout in the back would work well for someone with significant pain issues. At 5'1 and about 115 lbs, the Comfi-life wasn't right. It elevated me too much, and the cushion was so firm that the cutout in the back was very obvious. While it was a step up from no cushion at all, I did have to reposition myself frequently to stay comfortable, even after just a few minutes.
The Royal cushion by Purple was a totally different feel. While it has enough structure to support you, the rubber itself is soft. Unlike the Comfi-life, it doesn't matter how you sit on it. It's comfortable in any position, not too soft, not too hard, and very supportive. Mine came in perfect condition, and the cover fits perfectly. I do wish they had replacement covers in different materials and colors so you could match it with your decor. If you're in an office with a typical black desk chair, it probably doesn't matter. My mini home office is in my bedroom, so I try to make it look as nice as I can.
I paired the cushion with the Coop lumbar support pillow and a foam foot rest, and for me that was the perfect combination. While the other seat cushions weren't bad products, I think their comfort level depended on your height and weight. I would guess that the Purple cushion would work well for almost any body type. Before you buy it, do measure the chair you're going to use it in and compare it with the dimensions of different models. I can't attest to their customer service, but I love Purple's product.", "label": 1}

I'd already heard about Dr. Carolyn Dean and her liquid magnesium and figured it was like any other magnesium, but I am HAPPY and DELIGHTED to say that I was SO WRONG.

I put a few drops in my 32oz water bottle and sip on it through the day. I will put about 2 or 3 drops in an 8oz glass of water in the morning and drink it down before leaving the house.
The ReMag has also helped with my Charlie horses that I would get randomly in the middle of the night. I haven't had ONE cramp or Charlie horse in my legs at all since taking the ReMag. It has helped with headaches, and I believe it has even helped with calming my mood. Things don't worry me as much as they use to, it has also helped calm down the iritis I had developed in 2014. I haven't needed to take the eye drops the eye doctor told me that I would need for the rest of my life in almost 4 years!!!!

This review compares the two products. View my video for details.
2X/DAY
- Very easy to open/close
- I like having the sides facing each other (as opposed to the previous version)
- Night and day sections can be removed from base to be used in two locations (separates by week)
- Cannot adjust start of the week (start day is Sunday)
- Not very portable
- Not practical to lift the entire item to pour out pills; makes more sense to pick pills out of container with fingers which might be a challenge for some
4X/DAY
- Not as easy to open/close; might be a challenge for someone with arthritis or other hand/finger issues
- Compartment lids get in the way when you\u2019re trying to fill with all open
- Very portable
- Can easily arrange to start on preferred day
- Separates by day (each day can be removed)
- Easy to remove pills from compartment (just open the lid and flip over)
Both appear to be high quality, and I anticipate they will last quite a while. I found the Bug Hull customer service to be excellent. I prefer the various symbols used to delineate each pill time rather than more specific times like on other products (more versatile). If you think you will have trouble opening the 4x/day and you don\u2019t need to worry about portability, I recommend the 2x/day for its easy opening/closing mechanism. You can always get 2 of these if you need 4x/day. However, if you need something that is portable, the 4x/day is perfect. Both of these have \u201clarge\u201d compartments, which appear to hold 8 to 9 large capsules or a similar mix of large and small. I only fill about 1/3 of a compartment with my 3 capsules and 4 medium to small pills.", "label": 1}

I use them while I'm sleeping because the people upstairs are loud and the floors offer very little noise reduction. I have also used them while shooting at the range. In both cases, they work much better than a similar 3M earplug. These ones are much softer and keep their shape longer, while offering similar or slightly better noise reduction. The foam expanding ones are stupid and take forever to expand to fit your ear canal. These you just slide in, and they have a piece that extends out of your ear to make them easy to pull out. The part sticking out of my ear does not affect or annoy me when sleeping on my side.
For any reviewers complaining that these don't completely eliminate noise... you do not understand the purpose of earplugs. They are decibel rated and reduce noise by that level of decibel. Most earplugs are rated between 20-32dbs. These earplugs are rated at 32dbs, which means sounds will sound about 10-15 times quieter than without them (each 6-10dbs sound twice as loud to your brain... it's different when measured by equipment but numerous studies show the human brain perceives every 6-10dbs as twice as loud, look it up). The only way to get true noise cancellation is via very expensive electronic noise cancellation headphones.
Also, for anyone with slightly larger ear canals, these work fine! Mine are larger than most and I've bought some similarly shaped earplugs that wouldn't even touch my ear canal if held right in the center of my ear. They aren't gigantic, but if you have to use the large set of pads that come with earbuds, these will fit you just fine. They are also tapered, so they can fit smaller ears as well... my daughter can use them without any problem and she has to use the small pads that come with earbuds.", "label": 1}

A quick word about me: I'm a caffeine junkie. But I have to avoid coffee itself as well as carbonated sodas. So I look for other caffeine delivery methods and have tried most of them.
Each spray is about a third of a cup of coffee. To get the most out of it, I tend to take two sprays at a time: one under the tongue, one on the tongue. I let the spray sit in my mouth for a bit before swallowing. Mostly that's to increase the caffeine absorption, but it also helps my breath. I don't usually have halitosis (I hope!) but having nice tasting breath can't hurt.
The effects are pretty quick, usually within just a couple of minutes. It isn't an instant rush, and doesn't come on all at once. But the effect is noticeable and lasting. I don't recommend more than three sprays at a time before you get used to the effects or you might be bouncing off walls and arranging carpet fringe.
The only drawback to this is that the bottles are a bit flimsy and don't stand up to travel or pocket use. I keep one in my backpack for air travel and it will occasionally develop a very slow leak. The good part is that the spray doesn't seem to stain and it smells nice. The bad part is that everything in my backpack would smell like fresh peppermint. So I keep the bottle in a small plastic baggie when traveling (the \"snack size\" fits just fine). But this is well worth keeping in your pack - take a couple of sprays just before you land and you're ready for your destination!
Overall this is a great product, well worth buying. At the moment Amazon is selling these through Chemical Evolution and I LOVE this supplier.

If you're familiar with their bags and other items, they are constructed of heavy full-grain leather. As such, they need a good conditioner that penetrates deeply and delivers a healthy dose of lubrication to the fibers deep within' the material. I find the best method is to just get a good handful and massage it in. The benefit is twofold! You treat the leather and your hands!
My XL sized briefcase from Saddleback has benefitted greatly from regular moisturization from Paul's Pail. The ultra-thick and stiff panels have softened up nicely after successive treatments. Paul's Pail penetrates almost immediately and deeply to give a marked difference in the feel of the leather afterward. I have not had as much success with other treatments. Saddleback recommends another brand to condition their products and after a couple of years of use of that product, I didn't feel that it was doing much of anything. It almost felt as if it would dry the leather out. Paul's Pail certainly doesn't give the leather a dried out feel. After a couple of years of use of the other product, the bag never felt broken in. I can't say enough of how quickly this product penetrates and leaves the leather feeling pliable. Just after one application, the bag has acquired the broken-in feel that it should have for its age.
Another example:
I ordered a guitar strap from Saddleback. In true Saddleback fashion, it's overbuilt. That's a good thing. I wrestled with getting the strap onto one of my guitars and then went to take it off to put on another to see how it would look. To my horror. I could not remove the strap. The opening for the strap horn was too narrow to begin with, and then once on, refused to come off without possibly damaging the guitar itself. Thinking about what to do, I grabbed my container of Paul's Pail and slathered it on the strap. Within' twenty minutes, it had penetrated the leather fully and allowed the fibers to be stretched so the strap could safely be removed without incident.
Bottom line: It works. Use it. You won't be disappointed.", "label": 1}

I got this product because who doesn't want to be better in bed? Even as a 19 year old boy in my prime, having a little help does not hurt. In my experience, this product makes you last a lot longer. The boost in confidence is noticeable, as well as increased bloodflow. Reborn Labs pumps out quality products that I often use for my workouts because I am lifting and trying to get bigger muscles, and their products are working well for that so I trusted them when I bought this product too. I have to say, they have not let me down yet. This product keeps you energized longer, and boosts libido significantly. I am using this from the perspective of someone with no issues in that regard to start with, and it is still helping me perform better. If you are someone who struggles with this sort of situation, I would definitely give it a shot. It's only $20, so what's there to lose? It comes with 60 capsules, or enough for 30 separate days worth of taking this supplement. That is literally less than 35 cents a tablet, so it really just depends what your performance means to you. To me, it is worth that so I will continue to buy this product even without the discount I get as an honest reviewer. This product is definitely worth it though and it has earned it's five out of five star review from me.", "label": 1}

I have had so many health issues with GERD and my lower LES its been a nightmare that I started to give up. Where to begin. 3 months ago I woke up with the feeling of a lump in my throat and the food started to get stuck and or feel like its getting stuck so I just overall let it go.
Well about a month after that the food still felt a little like it was getting stuck but this time I was having some difficulty breathing along with eating but NOW the food was coming back up every single time i ate or I would constantly throw up.
I had a scope done and was shown that my esophagus is perfect. Zero erosion no cancer but my stomach does not product enough Acid and my Lower LES malfunctions. The doctor basically put me on PPIs such as Prilosec, prevacid 24hr, Nexium but they never did anything except make me sicker then a dog all day long.
I started researching APV but made the wrong choice in brand. I thought you could use ANY shelf ACV so I tried it for weeks but all I got was extreme burning and zero results. I decided to give up then after awhile I started researching again. Then it hit me I was using the WRONG stuff. I went to the store and bought a bottle of Braggs and the very first day about an hour later after I drank 3 teaspoons with 8oz water I felt alot of relief. Still the food still backed up that day because lets face it, It was the first day.
Been using this stuff a good month and what relief. Zero backing up or throwing up, No heart burn, pooping regular. Im afraid to stop using it now in fear symptoms will return so basically this will be my new daily ritual for life.
I drink 3 teaspoon with 8oz x2 times per day. Maybe one day ill just go get LES surgery and fix the LES for good but thats costly in itself", "label": 1}

Without explanation, my scraper simply disappeared without a trace and no one knows what happened to it (I think it got tossed in the trash by accident). I went about finding a replacement and after looking at a number of products I chose this one based on the price and the positive reviews. It has proven to be a good tool, a little different than my old scraper but still fine for my needs.
Instead of plastic, this one is stainless steel encased in silicone. There are a couple of important factors here. First, because of the silicone shell the scraping edge is soft and pliable. This is helpful for scraping around crevices and getting as much dough from a round plastic bowl as possible. Because of the stainless steel inside, the whole is stiff though still slightly bendable which allows it to flex just enough to clean the bowl of my stand mixer without fatigue or permanently getting warped or bent. It is stiffer than my old plastic scraper, and while this is a positive thing it does require getting used to it.
Unlike my old plastic scraper, this one will work on a hot saucepan. That\u2019s good news for when I am making candy and don\u2019t want to wait for the syrup to cool and harden, requiring a lot more effort to remove. I did not find any statement regarding the temperature limit for this scraper but based on other silicone utensils I have it is probably safe up to around 400 degrees F.
And...silicone is more non-stick than plastic so clean-up is a little easier. It was never bad with with my plastic scraper, but it did require a bit more effort than this new scraper just because of the nature of the materials of each.
I\u2019m very pleased with this scraper. It meets the need I had and it is better than my old plastic scraper that I used for years. It works well, it can be used on hot or cold cookware and it is very easy to clean. It\u2019s reasonably priced too. Based on my experience, this is a very easy product to recommend.", "label": 1}

I have wanted the Nuface for a while now and I just couldn't see spending anywhere from $179 (QVC) to $400 (Nordstrom's) depending on device size and 'stuff' that come with it.
First off...you NEED to do research on the Nuface type devices and understand realistically what it does. There are some great resources from Allure/Cosmo/etc that did great articles on how to use this device and why you want it in your anti-aging arsenal. There are also a few *mature* youtubers that have done some great reviews on the Nuface device.
This device to me is a *dupe* of the Nuface microcurrent toning device. The device out of the package is pretty self explanatory and really doesn't need directions. You charge it with the charger provided or with an Android phone charger type. Then you press the middle button and the lights will light up showing you the intensity of the current. Because the directions are in a foreign language - I am assuming the intensity goes from left to right.
IF YOU PURCHASED THIS ITEM AND PUT IT DIRECTLY ON YOUR FACE WITHOUT A CONDUCTIVE GEL...YES YOU WON'T FEEL ANYTHING OR HAVE ANY RESULTS. You have to use something on your face to help conduct the current (I use Spectra Electrode Gel). You can also use something as simple as Aloe vera gel. Putting this on your face before starting the treatment also allows for the device to glide across your face seamlessly. It periodically beeps to let you know to move on to another area of your face and then shuts down *possibly* after a 3 min treatment. I looked up the Nuface face diagram treatment areas and went off that.
This is great and I have only used this for 2 weeks and I felt like my cheeks looked more sculpted. I have not used it consistently enough to have a picture to show but I plan to update this review in 2 months with my thoughts!!! I would suggest this to anyone on the fence about purchasing the Nuface....I would try out this one first to see if you can commit before buying the real deal. This might even be the same for less!!!

I was really overwhelmed at first and between getting all of the different oils that were necessary for what I wanted to do and being able to figure out the titrations and mixtures that you should put together, what not to put together, what is actually toxic after a certain toast, there's really a ton of information that you need to know before you do start working with essential oils. This is a fantastic starter kit. It has 6 different blends of essential oils to get a common use out of them. Each has three or more essential oils within them and they are pure and highly concentrated so you will still need to dilute these oils. I use different carrier oils when using them for body placement, but my favorite is using fractionated coconut oil.
Of all of the blends, I have to say my favorite would have to be the bedtime blend and I've used it everyday since I got it just because I absolutely love it. I have not been able to accomplish that blend that well yet so its nice already have it done for me. in the video I explained what each oil does and what it has in it, and I will just list quickly the names in the set. This set comes with a good night blend, a stress relief blend, a muscle relief blend,a health shield blend, a breathe blend, a head ease blend and a health shield blend. They contain .33 floz or 10mL of oil and are highly concentrated theraputic blends. The bottles are a dark glass with a twist top and drop titrator underneath the cap. It's a great set and I highly recommend it. I do want to mention that each oil blend was sealed separately within the box, I had just already used all of them so that wrapping wasn't in my video.

It's all one piece silicone, even the handles are silicone and there is no metal frame that I can tell. The whole thing is very flexible and can be folded and rolled up. The biggest advantage of the all-silicone material is that it doesn't really get moldy if you leave it in your shower, like a wooden back-scrubbing brush will.
One side of the brush has silicone bristles and the other side has rounded bumps. I didn't really find the bumps to be useful, but the bristles work for cleaning your back. If you are using a body wash liquid soap, it helps if you lather it up in your hands briefly before applying it to the bristles. If you apply the body wash directly to the silicone bristles, you can work it up into a lather, but it takes more effort. You cannot really work up a lather on the bumpy side. From there you just hold onto the grips and use it to scrub your back. It works and it's easy to use.
As part of the package, you receive two adhesive hooks. The hooks have a thin transparent plastic square of plastic with adhesive on the back, and a metal hook is embedded into front-side of that that plastic square. I was able to affix the plastic hook to the tile in my shower and it has remained in place for over 3 weeks now. It supports the entire weight of the silicone scrub brush. However, after just 3 weeks the tiny metal hook is rusted and corroded beyond belief. The rust bits get all over the handle of the silicone brush too. Give it another 3 weeks and I bet the metal part of the hook falls apart due to corrosion. If you buy this, don't bother using those hooks. They're useless.
In conclusion, this inexpensive silicone scrub brush makes it easy to clean your back with body wash. However, you're probably only going to use the bristle side, and you shouldn't use the included hooks. It's fine for the price. If you buy it, though, i suggest you buy a 3M shower hook that is all-plastic and won't rust.", "label": 1}

But for the past couple of years, I've had a debilitating sensitive nerve in one spot way up inside my left nostril. When the air is cold and dry, this area of my nose becomes scabby and unbearably ticklish, causing me to sneeze uncontrollably, my eyes to water, and my nose to run non-stop. It got to the point that, if I cooked dinner on the stove, the onions, garlic and/or spices I used would inevitably irritate that one nostril, leading me to feel sick for days after. While doing research about this issue online, one commenter made mention that he found Vicks Vapor Rub to work wonders at alleviating the irritation. I don't like using products with petroleum jelly in them, especially in a place like inside the nose, so I started searching for a more natural alternative. I've been applying Maty's with a q-tip inside my nostrils off-and-on for a few weeks now whenever the flair up occurs, and it has been a life saver! I don't know if it's the mint having a numbing effect, if it's the oils moisturizing my nose, or a mix of both, but I could kiss that commenter for recommending Vicks, and I could high-five Maty for creating a natural version. If you have dryness or other nasal problems brought on by allergies, cold dry weather, or a cold, you might give this a try. It's very soothing, there's no burn or other negative reactions to the product, and the wintergreen scent is relaxing. If you're nervous about applying it inside the nose, I suggest rubbing it directly under the nose. My dad used to put Vicks under my nose when I had coughing attacks caused by colds, and as strong as the mint in Maty's is, I'm sure it'd be just as effective.", "label": 1}

I am fortunate enough to only need once daily pills, but I still have to take several a day. Other pill containers that fit the \u201cportable\u201d criteria were too small to hold my days-worth of medicine; anyone who takes vitamins or other supplements knows those pills can be \u201chorse pill\u201d huge. If you look at my pictures, I easily fit 12 large pills in one compartment and 62!! smaller pills in one.(I have coins in two of the compartments and an ink pen in one picture in hopes it helps visualize the overall container size.) The other problem I have with the small pill containers is I can\u2019t reach into the compartment and remove the pills because, well, I have these stubby fat fingers. So I would open the compartment lid and dump the pills into my hand, and inevitably one pill would get stuck, I\u2019d shake the container, drop several I had been holding, and often had to chase down a dog that thought he wanted that dropped pill. The other nice thing about this container is the lids gently pop open when you depress the adjoining tab. I was worried the lids would fly open, and send pills flying, but no-it is just a nice feature -you can just leave the container sitting on your counter or table and just push the tab to open the day\u2019s meds. I will be honest in telling you this pill container was sent as a replacement for one I had purchased that had 2 lids that wouldn\u2019t stay closed. I contacted the seller and they responded immediately with apologies and a note that another would be sent right out to me \u2013and it was. The seller didn\u2019t even suggest I needed to return the defective one, just wanted to know whether it was caused from shipping or from manufacturing.

I would love if this was made here in the U.S. though. I know they said they know the growers and such but it would be nice. Here is their reply about it being grown in China:
Yes, our Super Sweet blend is made from non GMO erythritol and our Organic Pure Stevia Extract Powder which is grown and processed in China.
Here is an excerpt from an article recently published by Trim Healthy Mama on the this subject:
"Serene's husband Sam recently returned from his second trip to where our Stevia is grown, harvested dried then extracted. While many companies are hush-hush about where they get their Stevia from (which in the world of Stevia is either from South America or China), we're so excited and proud of our source that we'll have a soon to be released documentary about it. There are many myths about the processing of Stevia, mostly put out by scare tactic bloggers who have never been to the countries where this plant is grown and extracted! So much of the speculation about processing is hearsay not fact. We want to show you the beautiful organic farms, the gentle processing methods used and some of the incredible landscape in this part of the country that has been dedicated to organic farming. We truly feel like God blessed us with the gift of being able to partner with organic farming communities who have been using the same growing methods for centuries without use of pesticides or other toxins.
People often get worried when they hear that a product comes from China. We felt the same way until we were able to send members from our own THM team to visit, not once but twice. They've been able to get to know the farmers and their families more and film the extraction from leaf to powder. Just like there are good and bad practices here in the United States, we've discovered that is the case in every country"

is it good or bad?
I'll make the provider/author
either happy or sad...........
and sometimes even mad.
One of my earliest memories is going with my Father to visit Grandpa. The reason that I remember those trips so vividly is that Dad would always take an electric drill with us on those visits. It turned out that the purpose of those visits was to grind down Grandpa's thick toenails. I was still too young to understand that the human body often provides us with some surprises, but now I've developed a few of those thick toenails myself. In addition it appears that Grandpa is responsible for my thick nasal hair and fast-growing long hairs that grow both inside my ears and on my ear lobes. Three cheers for Grandpa!!!
Fortunately most of my toenails are normal and don't require extra attention, but up until now it was a real project to keep the affected ones trimmed and under control. Previously I was somewhat successful using a special set of heavy duty clippers that have long handles for leverage, but the results were often raggedy and unattractive. So being offered this set of clippers for testing and review was a welcome and timely circumstance. These BeautyMe Nail & Toenail clippers appear to be extremely well-made and durable. The handles are long and ergonomic and the blades are curved and extremely sharp. The vendor describes these as "Premium Quality-Surgical Grade, and I have no reason to doubt them.
The combination of the long handles (for leverage), strong spring (for strength), and extremely sharp curved blades makes for an effective and precise set of clippers. They work like a charm on my thick toenails. The one caution I will give you is to be extremely careful to avoid having the blades cut your skin when using them. Toes tend to be very sensitive and bleed quite a bit.
NOTE: If you hit the "MORE" button under "About the Product" on the Amazon product page you will see two erroneous references to their Blackhead Remover Kit. Perhaps the company should review and change that verbage.", "label": 1}

Most of the time, my migraines last only an hour or two, but I had one a few days ago that seriously put me completely out of commission for about five hours.
I was okay to go about my routine and I dealt with the pain for about an hour. I spent the second hour sitting on the couch trying to relax. By the third hour, the slightest bit of light or sound made me want to curl up in a ball and die. I handed my toddler off to her teenage brother, swallowed couple of migraine pills, grabbed my earplugs and my new mask for sleeping and took off to the bedroom, locking the door behind me. I climbed into bed, hid under the blankets and took a three hour nap.
The Sleep Eye Mask was great. I didn't even feel that I was wearing it. In fact, I was a little startled when I woke up because I couldn't see! I really like the fact that it doesn't get caught in my hair and stayed put the whole time I was sleeping. I normally toss and turn as I sleep and expected it to at least slide down, but it did not. I also really like the fact that it covers my ears as well as my eyes, blocking out some of the sound as well as ALL of the light. It's very soft and comfortable and I immediately fell in love with it!

I am a transplant recipient, so I really, really need a monthly pill case that is going to work for me. I cannot mess around--I take about 16 pills in the am and about 12 at night every day. My survival and that of my transplant depend on me getting my meds right, and consistent. I previously have used the 70265 31 Day Pill Organizer for the last several years, but it was getting a little old, so I tried to mix things up. Here is how they compare:
Pro's: This one is much more compact
All of my pills fit in there (barely!) and 16 pills is a lot!
Nice pill splitter & pill crusher, though I currently don't need it--still nice to have
Does not take up much space on a counter and very lightweight when full
Daily pill cases open easily
MUCH less expensive than the other one
Con's: The pill cases are much smaller than the other one-- makes it precarious to fit all pills
Filling each pill case is a bit hard, because the individual day cases do NOT stand up by themselves, unlike the picture
Bottom is uneven and angled, so case wobbles and falls over unless leaned against something
Looks in the picture like it is a lazy susan you can spin, but it is not
Lids are so loose that I am worried they will pop open on their own--one did so while empty the first day (see picture)
I've attached several photos so you can see for yourself. If you look at the bottom left hand side of the last picture, you can see where one of the boxes popped open by itself just sitting in the carrier. It was empty, but that would suck if it does that when it is full of pills. Overall, I like this one, but if I had it to do over again, I'd try a different one or re-buy the larger box.", "label": 1}

I was intrigued, and decided to give it a shot as I own a large...."water pipe" (16" tall beaker style with an ice catcher).
So after almost a month, here are my thoughts.
1)These beads expand A LOT once they absorb the water! The package I received was enough to fill two 1 liter bottles once they achieved full size, so unless you have a lot of glassware to fill, hydrate a pinch of the beads.
2)Despite what people say, DO NOT FREEZE these beads! Freezing the beads will destroy them, so keep that in mind. You can throw them in the freezer for a few minutes to chill them, but don't forget them. I would suggest storing them in the fridge if you want to keep cold ones handy.
3)These are NOT a replacement for water, they simply can't filter the way water does. They do diffuse the smoke, but the point of water is a smoother hit through filtration, not diffusion. Diffusion helps filtration, however.
4)When used WITH water, these beads are great! These beads are noticeably cooler than room temp, and when in water, they will actually chill the water! It's not ice cold by any means, but it definitely makes a difference! They also help diffuse the smoke in the water so you get a smother draw!
5)They DO help keep the glass clean. My glass is used heavily, and gets a large buildup of resin (and ash) at the water line. It has to be cleaned every few weeks to get rid of the buildup before it becomes too much. These beads have prevented that buildup, instead I can just change the water and rinse one a week! They don't CLEAN the "pipe", but they do prevent the buildup.
6)They look cool! I wish I could find some in a deep colors, rather than the pastels I see from everyone, but even so it adds some color to my clear glass!
7) I have reused the beads several times just by rinsing and replacing the water. You can dehydrate them after use and rehydrate when you need again, also.
TL;DR- Cool beads get huge, great with water, makes the glass look cool and clean(er)!", "label": 1}

You could run it plugged in if you lay it on its face or tilted it on it's side, but the charger provided will not plug into the upright machine because the legs sit too low for that. It's quite stable both on its side and on its face, though, so it's not a major deal. The operation of the sound machine is super easy.

Use the + and - buttons to adjust the volume, and use the button with the picture of a light bulb to turn the night light function on. The choices are one light, three lights, or six lights, and the fourth push of that button turns the night light off. The lights fade in and out in as if they are \"breathing.\" The night light, even with all six lights on, is not actually bright enough to function like a night light in the traditional sense--even in total darkness, it does not light up the surroundings enough to be able to see anything except the lights themselves. I think it's purpose is more to give something rhythmic to focus on while falling asleep. The sound machine can be left on continuously, or you can set a timer for increments of 20 minutes ranging from 20-120 minutes. when setting the timer, the number of lit lights, 1-6, multiplied by 20 lets you know what length of time you've set.

If I had any pets or children I wouldn't be paranoid about this cleaner being in their reach (obviously I wouldn't want them eating it, but I wouldn't have to worry about it damaging their skin or anything else it came in contact with if it were accidentally sprayed). A yoga mat cleaner should be able to contact your skin directly without discomfort, because your skin contacts the mat it cleans directly, and this one has my vote!", "label": 1}

It is constructed really well..very high quality and really beautiful. I was really amazed. I noticed the first time using it that it makes you relaxed, calm. It allows you to fall asleep in a very relaxed state. My greatest benefit is: I suffer with chronic migraine disease; Since I have received and have been using this pillow, the incidence of migraines has reduced by about 80%!! This at a time when they had been particularly bad. Now, I'm not saying everyone with migraine will get the same results, but this is what I am experiencing. The pillow is a little different to get use to. You really have to work with it and try placing your head in different positions on it to get the right and most comfortable position for you. The great thing about it is that you can actually remove the covering and place it on a pillow of your choice if you can't adjust to the pillow it comes with. This is a great advantage. Personally I found that placing my head high up on the pillow is most comfortable for me and as an advantage the pillow also fully covers my neck and shoulder blades (scapula). This is helpful as I have had major disc surgery in my neck and I notice my neck feeling very relaxed when laying on the pillow. The pillow as a therapy is based on solid science. Negative ions are great !! If you are going to get this pillow it's a great idea to do a little research on the net and read about the health benefits of negative ion therapy, also read about what the crystals in this pillow do, what their vibrations are about, what crystal therapy and energy and vibrational healing are all about. It is very interesting and we are learning so much today about alternative and complimentary health care, especially related to energy healing modalities. Energy healing is the coming new Frontier in medicine and health care and those of us who study and embrace it certainly know why. I highly recommend this pillow as a therapeutic modality. Again, you must take time to get use to it. It's not like sleeping on a traditional, soft pillow, but the therapeutic benefits are well worth the time it takes to get use to using it.

I received this item at a discount price in exchange for an honest review.
Product details below:
L-Ornithine is a nonprotein amino acid and plays a intermediate role in the urea cycle in which the ornithine to a cell is the rate limit of the cycle. Ornithine is not used in the creation of proteins as many other amino acids, however, it's function is characterised by reducing the ammonia concentrations in the blood and increasing urea. Ornithine's function begins with binding to a molecule called carbamoyl phosphate which uses ammonia to be produced and then is converted into L-Citrulline, which gives off urea as a byproduct. The creation of Citrulline is said to put the urea cycle in overdrive, allowing it to suck up more ammonia (composed of nitrogen molecules) which are produced by working muscles. This in combination reduces the fatigue caused by muscles at the source. This trigers the effect of arginine conversion into nitric oxide (NO).\u2020 The increase in arginine in the blood leads to increased NO production, the increase of NO increases blood flow during exercise and allows for muscles to perform for longer while under duress, which gives weightlifters the ability to produce bigger muscle pumps. Thus, giving Ornithine the ability to help with increasing muscle endurance and reducing muscle fatigue. The added bonus of Alpha-Ketoglutarate (AKG) gives Ornithine increased absorption and performance in the body for usage. Ornithine is believed to stay in the body for longer durations and helps greatly in reducing ammonia levels in the blood, making it a excellent choice for workouts exceeding 45 minutes as this will allow for improved muscle fatgiue reduction long after completion of muscle activity.", "label": 1}

This includes 4 batteries, however when I put one battery in the ring worked. It can work with one battery however I think 2 batteries make this item work better, with one it seems to get loose from the housing and you have to adjust it to work again. With 2 it stays secured through all of the fun time. Be aware that the batteries go super fast if you leave them in the ring. Be sure to take them out after each use or else the next time you go to use it, probably will not work or be slow.
This is simple to use once you know how to use it. Comes with really no instructions on what to do or how things work. First the white plastic top that is covering the bullet comes off. It twists and locks in place, remember that when you are trying to open it. Otherwise it will just stay there or worse you can break it if you do not twist. Insert two batteries, you will have to work with them to see which way to put them in. Close the cap and twist, there are grooves that guide the cap in so be sure to line up correctly. Now this part is important because THERE IS AN ON AND OFF SWITCH! The white rubber cap is able to push in to turn on and push again to turn off. There are a few adjustments that need to be made to this. The size of the bullet is one, it is so large that it is uncomfortable, it pushes into you while your partner is wearing it. I found it to be distracting! The on and off switch is another one, its near the edge which 90% of the time during an intimate moment, it kept be pushed 'off' with each movement. It was very annoying. It is really a very sensitive button as well, sort of like there might be a bad connection, because it flickers on and off if you tap the battery housing. The other thing is that the rabbit itself is lacking, its big in the wrong areas and small in the ones necessary. The whole ring itself is bulky and the rabbit just does not hit the right spots without being uncomfortable.

Usually when you purchase a product that is not from a big name company, the issue seems to be that it is lacking in quality and power. This is the exact opposite of that. This prodcut, the Shiatsu Neck And Back Massager - FitPlus Shiatsu Neck Massager Pillow With 4 Heated KNeading Nodes 2 Year Warranty Car Chair Back Massager Pillow, is probably one of the most, if not the most, powerful massage products I have ever owned.
Now I would not exactly call this a pillow. It is a hard material, and a very well constructed one at that. It contains four roller points, and each one of them delivers a little slice of heaven and relieve to a tired and aching back.
The hard pillow type object has a strap on the back of it so that you can firmly affix it to the back of the chair you are sitting on. This is a very nice feature especially if you are trying to aim for your upper back. For me, it sits perfectly just at my shoulder blades, but you can adjusted to the height on your back that you are trying to make feel better. The unit itself is pretty lightweight and therefore easy enough to adjust, even while it is on.
It came with both AC and DC adapters. I have a massaging seat topper in my car already, so I use this at home at night when I come home from work. Besides, I really feel like this is too powerful of a massage function to be used in the car. It's much more invasive than your average vibrating seat topper. Perhaps if a passenger wanted to use it, that would be one thing, but this unit certainly should not be used while driving.
I have read other people's reviews, and I think it is important to mention that my unit had seemingly no smell at all and the heat function did not bother me at all and it heated very nice and gradually. The heat function seemed to intensify the massage feature, but I think that's a matter of personal preference.
I did receive this product at a discounted rate in exchange for my honest review. This in no way altered my opinion of this awesome product.", "label": 1}

While I realize this is the fault of amazon warehouse procedures as I later learned from amazon customer service, I still had to spend MY time to pack both of the light bulbs AND get instructions from amazon and then had to PRINT out the return address label as well as an invoice from amazon. Then I had to take the package to an UPS Store and send it back to amazon. Northern Light needs to be very clear about the very fragile nature of their light bulbs so customers are not inconvenienced and disappointed as I was, and have their products packed with much more care. Secondly, amazon did not want to credit my account for the light bulbs but the customer svc rep. (whose words I could barely understand) said they would send me replacement bulbs instead. I took the package to UPS and got a tracking number/receipt. When the other 2 light bulbs arrived in about 4 days, we installed them into the Northern Technology Lamp and both of them flickered constantly and never provided full light. Evidently they were Defective. So I had to contact amazon cust svc AGAIN and repeat the process to send light bulbs back for a Refund (credit). When amazon sent me an email with the credit, it only gave me my refund for 1 light bulb! Back to the phone with amazon cust svc! This time at least I could understand what she said to me. Oops! Amazon made an error and she said she would have another credit refunded. To this day, two weeks later, I still have not received an email from amazon with the credit/refund on it! I am really at my wits end and when I receive my credit card statement, there had better be 2 credits for the full amount of those defective light bulbs or I will dispute the charges that amazon has made on my credit card. I don't have the time or energy to deal with amazon customer svc!
By the way, those light bulbs cost almost $30 each! I was able to purchase a New Lamp from another company for $80! That is only $20. more than those 2 light bulbs.
In the future, I am going to be much more careful about buying things from amazon. Not a happy customer of amazon. Better to deal with the company directly.", "label": 0}

I bought a pair of DeWalt antifog goggles to use while working in the hospital. The reason being we are seeing more and more people with respiratory issues and we are implementing stricter precautions. Prior to this I use using simple reader bifocal safety glasses which would fog up when using an N95 or simple mask. As an RN i chart a lot on a computer, which is a light prescription then my reading glasses, so I came up with the idea of making a tri-focal goggle to be able to use during my ling shifts. I trimmed my computer prescription down placed those just below eye level and then placed my reading prescription under that. I used a dry-erase marker to look in the mirror and centered it on my pupil at the 2 different angles I would be using when using a computer and when I would be reading close up. It took a little tweaking here and there but I am very happy with the results. The cost is a little more then I would like to pay, but it is a lot cheaper then custom goggles from an optometrist and a lot faster. To me the prescriptions seem about 0.25 off. If I had to do it over again I would get 0.25 stronger then my normal prescriptions. I have worn them around the house for about 3 hours and so far so good. when walking around the top is clear and I don't get any blurriness from the computer lens, this is due to my placement, you will have to experiment to get it just right. The cool thing is when the lens is wet and being placed it stays in place, but can be moved easily until it dries. Also the lenses can be removed and cleaned and replaced on another set of glasses or goggles.The inside of my goggles should stay clean so I don't plan on cleaning the inside that often. If I have to take the lenses off and clean the inside I will have to re-measure with the dry erase marker method to place them back in the right place.
I will update this review once I have worn them for a few full shifts. I hope this helps anyone out there who uses reader glasses and is in either Healthcare or any work environment where you need to wear eye protection.", "label": 1}

I had heard about the product many times on the Alex Jones Show, saw how his reporter Aaron Dykes lost a lot of weight on the product, and had a few of my internet pals (fellow Alex Jones listeners) tell me great things about the product. I've been on the vitamins since February of this and I can confirm, without exercising, to loosing at least fifteen pounds and feeling a lot better. I first started taking this at the end of winter, I had a really bad cold that was kicking my butt. As soon as my first canister arrived I took about two times the recommended dosage and within half an hour my really bad cold, sneezing, drips disappeared and I felt awake and alert.
I have been able to eat less while on the multivitamins, to be fair in conjunction with taking Tangy Tangerine I have also made a huge change in my diet. I don't eat out much any more, I cook a lot at home and eat mainly organic produce and filler free meat. I also stopped drinking all soda. I'm sure that factored a lot into my weight loss as well :). It is true that for most, unless you're in the hundred pound weight range, the canister won't last you a month. I have been getting an average of two and half to a little over three weeks depending if I take four scoops a day or five. I don't know where soo many people are coming up with only five to ten days out of one canister. You all know it's only one scoop per hundred pounds for twelve hours right? Just checking...
Anyway the only bad thing I can say is I wish it had a bit more powder in the canister for the money so it would last a month for those of us who weigh approximately two hundred pounds. There are other liquid and powder multivitamins out there but Tangy works, and it works well. It does detoxify your body and (at least myself) helps my bowels by digesting my food a lot faster. It's a great product just not quiet enough of it for the money. One last thing, I saw someone say they can't get the information on what's in it unless they buy the product.

I'm looking to improve the health of my skin and hair which are very dry, and hoping to find some relief from my joint pain due to arthritis. So far with some of the powdered marine collagens that I've tried, I've experienced faster hair and nail growth but not much else.
I am still testing out this Nuton Collagen Peptide so I can't say how well it has been working just yet. I've only had it for four days now. I can say that it does not have a bad odor nor a harsh flavor. It dissolves easily and quickly into my morning tea. I don't even need to stir it!
According to the description, this is type 1 collagen from wild-caught Pacific Ocean Paddock and Red Snapper from a sustainable and traceable supply chain. I think Nuton also offers beef collagen but I do not eat cow so I've only tried marine collagen.
As of now, the reason I knock off one star is because of how small the container is. This container is 5oz and approximately 13 servings which doesn't even get you through half a month. But, I know that this brand of collagen is fairly new so I'm wondering if the company plans to offer this supplement in a larger tub in the future once they receive feedback or sales begin to increase. That's just my guess and if I end up loving this powder, I'll be begging them to make a larger tub with at least a month's worth because I drink marine collagen everyday. It often takes a while for my body to notice benefits from new supplements so hopefully I'll be able to fully assess how this new brand does by the end of 13 days. I'll be sure to update if I notice any big pros or cons.
I also want to say that I was in contact with the company before and after I made my purchase and they are really nice to do business with. They are prompt and courteous and they let me know that they are a small, family business and that this is a new brand of collagen. It makes me happy to help out a new, small business.", "label": 1}

I had been warned that the prep was the worst part. And my mom warned me to lay in a supply of this lotion when tidying up after the prep stuff did its thing. I was skeptical. Lotion? For my BUM?! Turns out, that's a very definite YES.
If you've had a colonoscopy, you know that after you drink that concoction of vileness that they call the \"prep drink,\" you're going to poop in much the same way that Vesuvius erupts. Trip after trip to the loo, right? Right. Oh, you thought you were done and could have a little lie-down to recover? Haha. NOPE! Why don't you just bring in War and Peace and sit here the rest of the day?
So after a few trips to the throne room, your bum feels a bit sore. Even the softest toilet tissue feels like 80-grit sandpaper rasping all the skin off your most delicate bits. And you can't stop going to the loo, because that death-potion you had to drink is ripping through you like a wildfire through a summer-dry grassland. In fact, your bum feels like it might BE on fire.
That's where this lotion stuff comes in. After gently patting the worst of the debris off your bum, you take a fresh piece of toilet roll and put a bit of this stuff on it. Use that to clean up the rest of you. The relief is instant, like a cup of ice-water after a mid-day hike through Death Valley in mid-August. And it does seem to make the cleanup more effective.
I imagine people with chronic digestive issues would also find this useful, and I know that on days when my \"girl thing\" is happening, it's a relief to clean up using this product. But if you're slated for a colonoscopy, you should most definitely lay in a supply of this stuff. You're gonna need it!", "label": 1}

It is neat that it has a detachable pouch for a battery if you want to go that route. You can plug directly into the wall but you have to use a USB plug slot. Or you can attach the battery pack and attach the little cord (there is a little baby USB cord too) to a power bank and then you have a portable belt. It also comes with two belts too \u2013 a wide belt and a thinner one. So, this thing will fit almost anyone \u2013 and almost anywhere. Use one belt \u2013 or use both for a lot of length. It is completely flexible as well.
There are two buttons. On is power on/off. The other changes the setting. The button on the belt changes color with each setting \u2013 Blue, White, Green, and Red. To me, the settings mean this blue is heat only, white is a red light, green is a lighter red light, and red is a very bright red light (I never look at the light \u2013 but peeked at the glow emitted on my body). Now according to the actual instructions, it says the red color is red light, the blue color is near infrared, the white color is red light & near infrared, and the green color is red light & near infrared & 73 hz pulse. If there is a frequency, I am unable to hear or feel it
So, it must be working deep inside.
Either way it feels pretty good \u2013 all settings feel warm on the body and some I feel more than others \u2013 almost like an odd feeling \u2013 maybe a tingling or the ever so slightest stinging \u2013 but not really. So, I guess it depends on how sensitive you are to the red light for how you will feel. It does seem to help me overall with my pain.

To make 12 suppositories, I use a couple tablespoons of coconut oil, melted and dissolve a teaspoon of matcha within, as well as some liquid green tea extract, some pure aloe gel (1 tsp) and two small drops of tea tree oil. After the trays have been filled with the pipettes, you can put the suppositories in the freezer and when you're ready to use them, run the tray under lukewarm water to dislodge the "suppository bullets" as my boyfriend and I call them. I use the smaller end of a chopstick to push each one through after removing the mold cap and it pops right out. I then use a suppository applicator which I also purchased on Amazon to place the "bullet" right up against my cervix (I place on foot on the toilet and the other on the ground to get it all the way up... TMI, I know). The shape of the suppository is compatible with the applicators and it inserts fairly easily. After I've inserted one, I put the mold back in the fridge. The pipettes are nice because they help in getting the right amount into the molds without making a mess though they're a bit tricky to wash and remove the oil from (you'll need to rinse them out in a bowl of warm, soapy water several times, filling them up and emptying them out repeatedly).
Some advice: The formula I use feels good (cooling, soothing) and doesn't seem to cause me any discomfort. Wear a pad or a liner with it as it will leak as it dissolves. Also remember that anything oil based will be incompatible with latex condoms for at least a day. I believe you can also douche the next day to remove the oily residue (using vinegar and water, or simply water, nothing unnatural I would think).", "label": 1}

I have only just received the bag today, so this review is my first impression and is not reflective of long-term use. I also wanted to provide some more pictures that others can use for size comparison. Unfortunately, most of my chosen medical equipment is also black and may be difficult to see.

\u2022 A hook that you could attach your keys to
- On the back there is a pocket that contains the patient information folder. In my picture I have placed 2 ATI books in it so you can visualize the size of the folder.
- On the inside, there is a large main compartment, a padded laptop compartment, and a thin large compartment on the opposite side.
\u2022 To help visualize the size of the inside compartment I have included a picture with all of my ATI textbooks and a picture with a felt organizer (slightly too large for the bag). The organizer has my Omron automatic BP cuff, 2 pocket nursing diagnosis books, a pocket drug guide, and my wallet.

I bought one for a friend and he noticed a hole between two of the fingers, which was disappointing, especially for a gift. Although my pair did not have this defect. They are cut \"resistant\" which absolutely does not mean cut \"proof\". My buddy immediately took a kitchen knife to them while wearing them while I stood by and advised against it. They appeared to hold up to the test without noticeable damage to the gloves, or more importantly, the flesh. A heavy slash would be of concern, but they are better than bare skin. As for bites, pressure, and puncture, protection I wouldn't expect much. While they may guard against outer tissue damage, the pressure from a bite or the puncture of a bite, would hurt, bruise, and most likely get through the gaps in the fabric causing some injury. So I can see why other reviewers say that are not good for rough dog play or training. Since they are soft, you can still feel the pressure of a bite and the individual direct pressure of a tooth that may get through to the skin. Still they are better than nothing and would increase your body's protective armor rating, to an extent. The dexterity of the fingers and hands feels quite good and I feel that I could operate a variety of devices, contraptions and weaponry while wearing them. Wearing another pair of Kevlar gloves underneath them increases the intensity of the protective feel, obviously. I did buy more of them and there was a seam that stuck out from the side of the glove that went all the way down. It made it feel more rugged, but not as smooth and sleek as the first ones that I bought. I cannot attest to their heat resistance, as of yet. I removed a star for the damage to one of the initial pairs and the weird protruding seam on the next pair that I purchased. I plan on using additional ones for gifts, but I am inspecting them for flaws/holes prior to gifting. For handling, cleaning, or practicing with swords, knives or other edge cutlery, they would increase my sense of safety. Overall, I like them and I am including them in my gear until I have something bad to say about them or find something better.", "label": 1}

I had heard about the product many times on the Alex Jones Show, saw how his reporter Aaron Dykes lost a lot of weight on the product, and had a few of my internet pals (fellow Alex Jones listeners) tell me great things about the product. I've been on the vitamins since February of this and I can confirm, without exercising, to loosing at least fifteen pounds and feeling a lot better. I first started taking this at the end of winter, I had a really bad cold that was kicking my butt. As soon as my first canister arrived I took about two times the recommended dosage and within half an hour my really bad cold, sneezing, drips disappeared and I felt awake and alert.
I have been able to eat less while on the multivitamins, to be fair in conjunction with taking Tangy Tangerine I have also made a huge change in my diet. I don't eat out much any more, I cook a lot at home and eat mainly organic produce and filler free meat. I also stopped drinking all soda. I'm sure that factored a lot into my weight loss as well :). It is true that for most, unless you're in the hundred pound weight range, the canister won't last you a month. I have been getting an average of two and half to a little over three weeks depending if I take four scoops a day or five. I don't know where soo many people are coming up with only five to ten days out of one canister. You all know it's only one scoop per hundred pounds for twelve hours right? Just checking...
Anyway the only bad thing I can say is I wish it had a bit more powder in the canister for the money so it would last a month for those of us who weigh approximately two hundred pounds. There are other liquid and powder multivitamins out there but Tangy works, and it works well. It does detoxify your body and (at least myself) helps my bowels by digesting my food a lot faster. It's a great product just not quiet enough of it for the money. One last thing, I saw someone say they can't get the information on what's in it unless they buy the product.

As a result I have to be off my leg for 3 weeks (4 more days as of writing this) and I discovered after two days of clunky, hospital-issued crutches weren't worth my time or money. They were clunky and loud, woke up the whole family any time I walked anywhere, always managed to fall when I leaned them on something, and left my ribs raw and bruised, no matter how I adjusted them.
As a result, I've come to the conclusion that if you're going to be on crutches longer than a few days and you don't get forearm (Lofstrand) crutches, you're a chump! Why?
Well, first of all this design has a (relatively) closed cuff that is completely adjustable. That means that I could reach up and grab something while the crutch hung from my forearm (in a long sleeve shirt) or I could quickly slide my arms through them further so they hung on my upper arm (at my side really) while I reached up overhead.
The cuffs also allow them to lean more easily on things, and because they are rubber coated, they have more friction. These crutches are pretty heavy-duty. Aluminum, with locking screws that prevent clunking and clacking, but I did have to get a wrench to loosen the cuff bolt slightly, so that they would swing a little easier.
The tips are very grippy and soft. I've started to wear one side of them out, so I rotated the bottom of the crutch by pushing in the adjustment buttons and rotating. I walk extremely fast, and I've been hard on these crutches - standing and walking for 7 hours a day so far, with a 12 minute walk to and from my car - so I'm not surprised that the tips are showing a bit of wear already. The crutches overall are steady, safe, and designed well. I wish that the cuff width could be adjusted somewhat (although metal, they bend but do not stay) more for a more precise fit.
Overall a really good, inexpensive, highly reliable product.", "label": 1}

An old man trying to get a boy to stop stealing his apples realizes that talking or throwing grass at him doesn't work, but hitting him with rocks gets his point across. Bradlee Dean takes this analogy and applies it to america and christianity, decrying an overemphasis on God's love without an equal emphasis on God's wrath and hatred of sin. This book is Dean's equivalent of throwing rocks in his attempt to wake people up to the fact that everyone is a sinner deserving of hell, and therefore desperately needs to accept Jesus' payment for sin on the cross.
This book is written at a very popular level, a \"street ministry\" level, which Dean is involved with (from what I can gather). You won't find any intricate philosophical arguments, or detailed apologetics; his emphasis is conviction of sin.
He covers everything from alcohol, drugs, and promiscuity, to evolution, television, and government corruption. He actually prints out the articles of amendment to the constitution in the back of the book, in his section covering his views of limited government.
I can't say that Dean is a great writer, or that the book flows smoothly. His practice of embedding the definitions of difficult words right in the text (with parentheses) was annoying to me. He basically just hops around from one topic to the next, telling short stories and making analogies to drive home his points. However, he also puts a ton of scripture in his book too, even to the extent of entire chapters at times.
I can see how this book could be really helpful to certain individuals, and how Dean could use this profitably in his ministry. There was nothing I disagreed with in the book, but nothing that stuck out to me as eye-opening or profound, although I did enjoy reading the amount of scripture that he included, which is always profitable.", "label": 1}

I will say it right now, that I love it! I was sketchy like I sometimes am with a lot of ads, but I can attest that this is a legit order. Everything you see in the ad, is what you get. Was planning to go to the salon because my hair getting so thick, prior to the pandemic, but of course, everything shut down. I honestly hate going to the salon, so rarely went anyway because it feels like a hassle. But my hair was getting too thick, I couldn't stand it, I needed to go to the salon. Once everything shut down, I just shrugged and decided to order some professional scissors with the thinning shears. I couldn't wait. My hair got so thick, it was hard to run my brush through it. This came pretty quick and the package was small. Left on my doorstep. I believe it could just fit in the mailbox, but I'm sure it won't be delivered that way.---So the hair cutting process was so easy. I really honestly wished I'd ordered it sooner. Not saying you'll get a \"perfect\" haircut doing it yourself, but if you're careful, it doesn't really seem that bad. It's really quite easy. I wear my hair in a ponytail most days and a bun at work because I'm actually required since it's food service. I just needed to get rid of bulkiness, and thinning shears does the trick. It's all about the thinning shears. I can't express enough how much better I feel after taking out the bulk. I took out a LOT of hair! And it feels great! Feels just like a fresh cut from the salon. They are very sharp and pretty. No snag. They came a blue and silver color. Not sure what the 'white-3' option was...? The accessories were a little cheap feeling, but can't complain, they're still nice. The apron has a logo on the front, not pictured in the ad. But that shouldn't stop you from achieving a desired cut. I cannot wait to cut my husband's hair. So yes, I do recommend these if you're looking for something you can trust.

These are good clips and I would give a 5-star rating except they are difficult to get my socks clipped into the device. It takes me longer than with other clips. I have had no problems with sock becoming loose in the wash or dryer, and this is with quite thin socks.
DETAILS:
My favorite clip is [[ASIN:B003E6DK4U SockPro Sock Holders Red]]. You can get them in various colors and they are simple to put your socks into them and I have had very minimal loose socks after many (~15) washes with each clip. You just pull the ends through the socks and it is almost a one hand operation once you get used to it. I have not liked [[ASIN:B00I001GKU 10 Pcs Mix Color Socks Stockings Hose Clip Holder Organizer Rack Laundry Supplies]] as well. They grip the socks much looser than the ones I recommend and I am loosing socks 15-20% of the time.
I have also used [[ASIN:B000QOHCFQ 24 SockLocks, Colors May Vary]] with good success. They are a harder plastic where the ones I recommend are softer and more flexible. I thought that the SockLocks would not hold up well to the hot wash and may become brittle. They seem quite flimsy; however they have worked well through at least 10 wash/dry cycles and given the price they may be a better purchase than the SockPro item.
These SockStar clips are even tighter holding than the other clips I have used. They are thicker plastic and seem well made. I like the color on them and think they will hold up well. I have only used a few clips through 2 wash/dry cycles, so I do not know the longer term reliability, but I expect that it will be fine. If you have had problems with other sock clips loosing grip in the wash, then I would suggest these. They take me a bit longer to get my socks clipped is the only negative I have.

I love the idea of these but they miss the mark a bit. Overall they are ok but you have to kind of adjust them. First if your shoes are already tight, they won\u2019t fit. I mean you can put them into your shoes\u2026 but then your foot won\u2019t fit. I got these to use inside of normal everyday flats. When I get new shoes (normally flats) they always irritate the back of my foot. (That is probably because they are cheap shoes and aren\u2019t well made\u2026 but that\u2019s not the point.) Anyway so you put these into your shoes (that fit or are a bit loose. And they feel great\u2026 until you start walking around in them. They start to move around and slide. I realize that there is serious friction going on in the back of your shoe. The pads come right off. You can throw them away or\u2026 you can glue and sew them on. (Again I put them in cheap shoes so I didn\u2019t mind the holes). Once they are attached, they are great!
Star Rating: When I do a review I always start out with 5 stars. Then if there is something wrong I will deduct one star and explain why. This way I\u2019m not just arbitrarily picking a number. I gave these liner pads 4 stars. I would give them a 3 but once they are attached, they feel really good. So if you are willing to sew them in (or have them sewn in) they are great. If not\u2026 maybe you should pass on these.

My first couple day I wasn't a fan of this, of course I reaally wanted to be, but the vibrating had me flinching away from it! However I finally figured out that part of was that I kept turning it on before putting it in my mouth and having it in position first seemed to help me. Of course part of it is also just getting used to the vibrating I did find the massage setting the easiest to get used to.
The toothbrush came in a very pretty white with a blue inner box that I really liked. Inside was the toothbrush fit into it's spot with the cup was on top as well and the charger base directly below.
Set up was beyond simple as all you do is connect the toothbrush head to the base, plug in charger, put the cup on top(optional) and set the toothbrush on that. Once it's set on top you see the red light come on. I'm still amazed it's really that simple, and that it actually charges like that!!
I did leave it on the charger for a day but that's mainly cause I didn't realize it had finished already!
I really love this toothbrush, it feels good on my gums and it helps me make sure I split my brushing up equally. I was surprised to find I normally brush for about a minute and a half already as I always worry I don't take long enough!
Now that i'm used to this toothbrush I don't think i'll ever go back to a normal one!
One other tip i've found is to just let the brush do the work for you(which is hard for me still), go slowly and you don't need to press very much(it will harshly buzz against your teeth when you press to hard). I have the hardest time with this when moving from the different surfaces(front, inbetween and inside).

My old chair had a drive belt wore out and I can't find that part.
I think its about 18 years old and if definitely got my moneys worth out of it, using it almost every day.
I'm going to try and find a belt and am still going to keep it as the motors and gears are still good, or maybe find someone looking for the motors. The front cushion is almost worn through.
This new chair is whisper quiet, I think the posting about a noisy chair is less than accurate or they got a defective unit. This chair seems to make less noise than my old one.
It has about the same footprint as my old one, maybe a little bigger and fits nicely into small spaces.
My new chair has many more choices for massage type which I like.
It doesn't seem to work the neck as good as my older unit.
I haven't played with the settings on manual yet and can probably get more intensity on upper areas, also the upper massage may improve as the padding gets broke in.
I like that the new chair provides lateral massage movement, where the old chair just ran up and down.
The massage range has been increased and reaches lower on my back, very nice.
The massage heads seem more like real hands.
The motorized recline and leg lift feature is nice as well.
The big difference is the leg massage.
It applies pressure squeezing the legs and then stretching them by pulling on them.
I'm thinking that its going to help with leg blood circulation.
It takes a bit getting use to this new feature.
My friend loved the leg massage and thought it was the best part.
The delivery was curb side and on time.
The back legs have rollers just tip it back and roll.
Its not easy lifting from the front to roll, it takes 2 people.
It was crated well and now I have a lot of cardboard to recycle.

My only disappointment in these so far, and it's minor, is they only come in these two patterns. I'm fine with them around the house, I like blue, but wish there were more attractive prints made by this company. Possibly some paisley (blue and purple and green are fine colors, no need for pinks or red or anything,) or midnight sky (with stars). Or maybe fall leaves or something fun like Halloween ghosts/bats/pumpkins (repeating pattern), as we're close to Halloween. Or polka dots. Basic polka dots - Navy blue background, white dots. Stripes. I dunno, just more variety. I'm all for the unisex look and simple patterns to disguise spills, and dark colors, but just more! Lol. I do really like the two I have, though. They're slightly \"masculine\" in colors/styles, which, again, is fine, but a little more variety for the ladies might be nice.
Regardless, these are great. LOVE the length! It's perfect, covers chest and lap, which is necessary! It's perfectly wide.

It comes with no directions, so the first night after it arrived, I was struggling with it, trying to figure out which strap goes where, and how to put it on. I couldn't quite figure it out, so decided to put it aside, and try again in the morning. Then when I looked at the chin strap in the morning, I noticed that it was already falling apart, because of the stretching when I tried to put it on the first time. It had begun to rip near the seam in the part that goes directly under the chin. And on both sides of that seam, the cloth which had originally been glued to a foam rubber material on both sides, had now become detached on both sides.
The general design, the way the straps wrap around the head to secure the chin, seems good. But this device needs to be made of far more robust materials, so that it is not easily destroyed by just a little bit of stretching.
----------------------------------------------
Addendum, Jan 7, 2018: After buying and trying out a more robust chin strap that follows this general design, with one strap going over the top of the head and the other wrapping around behind the head, I am now of the strong opinion that none of these anti-snore chin straps are likely to work well, because the whole idea of the design is wrong to begin with. The fatal flaw is that they all pull your chin in the general direction of your ears. And that's where the hinge of your jaw is. This hinge is the TMJ (temporomandibular joint), and it is right in front of your ear canal. If the strap pulls your chin in this direction, it will produce no torque whatsoever to close your jaw. In order to produce any torque that would help keep your mouth closed, the force exerted on the chin should be tilted further up toward the nose.
I have also explained all this in a review I posted yesterday for that more robust chin strap that I just mentioned. Here's a link to that review:

WHAT I LIKE:
- the cord is quite long - 72\" or 6 feet which is perfect if you fall asleep, so that it gives you enough leeway tossing and turning and not getting entangled with the cord
- the cord attaches to the mask magnetically - in case you DO get entangled, it easily snaps off (but it is also a big CON... read below)
- the material seems to be of high quality and it is padded, which feels very soft to the touch
WHAT I DISLIKE:
- the mask comes only in a box, not a pouch. I do not like stuff like this to be in a box that could get smashed, waterlogged or otherwise damaged. A dedicated pouch with a string as a hanger would be much more practical
- the temperature switch (on the cable) is very touch sensitive - this might be a defect of my particular eye mask: when I set it on HIGH, and I just lightly move the cord by the magnetic attachment, it will turn off entirely. So in order to not disrupt the heating, I have to set it on MEDIUM or LOW for it to work (because everyone moves around a bit....)
AND MY BIGGEST COMPLAINT:
- the mask stays on 15 minutes at a time, which in my opinion is a very short time - it should be longer!
- THE DESIGN IS WRONG! No matter how I shift the mask, the cutout shape for the nose is too small meaning the mask is sitting either mostly on the top of my eyes and I can peek from under the mask and see daylight (and my nose is nicely cleared), or I push it over my eyes, and then the mask and its padding pushes onto my (rather large, I admit) nose and sinuses and makes wearing it VERY UNCOMFORTABLE.
I have to say, my head is truly somewhat larger and so is my nose, so this discomfort might be due to the proportions of my face features, I don't know....
So all in all, mostly because of the awkward design and therefore the uncomfortable fit, I hardly ever use this mask.
Wasted money for me, but this could probably be a good fitting mask for someone who has a more delicate face with a smaller nose, and whose cord isn't too touch-sensitive where it just shuts off....", "label": 0}

Note: you DO need to give it a full 8-hours to do the job - and realize it will only recharge batteries 1 or 2 at a time; alkaline ones that actually have some degree of recharge ability left in them (not totally drained ones) - and the directions clearly state that that means probably at best 5 recharges at the most for any one battery. (Can't verify this yet but that's what the fine print states.)
What I particularly like is if a battery is really "Exhausted" with a bit of time in the gadget that read-out WILL appear. Otherwise, it will cue you when it starts recharging a battery if it can potentially do so at a 3 or 4 bar level - and maybe at a 5-bar level. Not sure tho about 5-bar as I've not yet had one of those potentially to work with with this Reharger yet.

I've suffered from leg cramps for a long time, often \"thrown out of the bed\" usually exactly during REM sleep, which is a real problem for your health. Tried lots of products and advice over the course of many years - couple of decades off/on. I do drink filtered water mostly, but no longer exclusively. I hit the gym 5 days per week on average and walk at least a mile rapidly mostly days in addition to cycle trainer and weight lifting. I do sweat a lot in the unbearable heat here, but I drink on average 2 litres of water per day my minimum, plus more in tea etc [NO coffee..., NO soda, just water and some hot tea]. Nothing ever worked. Nearly every magnesium thing on the market either makes my gut ill or simply does no good, including salts/oil rubs, aspercreme [a very good product but doesn't prevent cramps] etc.
THIS WORKS.
At first, I was getting disappointed thinking it was another hope-filled fail but I stayed at it for a few days then looked back and noticed I DIDN'T have nighttime or any other leg cramps for a couple days. I thought it was a fluke, maybe I just didn't get enough water that day or some other accident. My formula for daily water is about 2/3rds to 3/4 clean \"zero\" water [not the company, just double reverse osmosis water that has 0 TDS, no chems] plus the rest 'tap water' from my home which is softened [19 hardness from the source, zip in my internal], filtered through one big household GE carbon filter that removes most chlorine and a few other things, but leaves 95% of the solids so a fairly rich TDS number, and this product: in one litre I use around 20'ish drops... I don't measure precisely anymore but its in that zone.
That's the end of cramps. I mean it sincerely

Contacted company through Amazon and they promptly offered to replace it. That was nice of them but the return shipping cost was almost as much as the original cost of the charger. Into the electronic recycling bin it goes and next time I'll do a little more research and buy a better quality recharger. Junk, don't buy.
This is an update to my earlier review:
After posting my initial review, I was contacted by EBL asking if I would like to return the charger under warranty and have it exchanged for a new one. I stated sure provided the return shipping cost wasn't excessive. I looked into the shipping cost and found out it was only $10 less than the initial cost of the charger. It wasn't worth the cost to return it so I told EBL I would just toss it and buy a different one. They responded in a very short period of time and offered to send me a replacement free of charge. I stated to them if they were willing to send me one no cost I'd be more than happy to accept it. True to their word, within about a week I had a new unit in my hands. I've only had the replacement one for a couple of weeks now but it seems to be working nicely. It's to early to tell about it's longevity but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Thus I'm updating my review to a 4 star. Not so much for the performance of the charger, but for the performance of their customer service people. When they saw my initial review they immediately sent me an email asking if they could be of any assistance and followed through on their promise to send another charger at no cost. They were very concerned about my satisfaction with their product. In todays world it's a refreshing change of pace to see this kind of customer service. Kudos to their customer service team.", "label": 1}

I work in an office with no windows. I've been working in an office with no windows for the last nine years. Every winter...work becomes nearly unbearable. The dry, overheated office air. No sunlight. Getting up in the dark...leaving from work in the dark. For anyone who suffers from SAD...it's like slowly descending into hell over the course of three months.
I use a 10,000 lux light in the morning with my coffee. It helps with the worst symptoms...and allows me to get to sleep at night. But it really doesn't give me the perk in the day like getting natural light does.
The Verilux light is just what it claims to be...supplemental sunlight. I start work at 8:30 in the morning...and keep it on the \"high\" setting until lunchtime. (When weather permitting, I try my best to spend at least a few minutes outside.) Then I turn it on the \"low\" setting for the rest of the afternoon.
The effect that it has had on my productivity is dramatic. My eyes stay open at my desk. I can concentrate. I am no longer contemplating grabbing my belongings and making a mad dash for my car in the middle of the day. (And unemployment.) I keep the light behind...and about 45 degrees to the right of my computer screen...so the light is almost in my peripheral vision...and have had no problems with eye strain. To the contrary...I find that I have a greater ability to focus...and need to take fewer breaks.
The only cons are that the light is a little flimsy. If you have a dedicated desk and can just set it up and leave it...then it's totally worth it. If you need something portable...one of the smaller LED lights will hold up better. And it's NOT a SAD light. But it IS a great supplement to the outdoors for those of us tied to a desk all day.", "label": 1}

Having seen a bunch of negative reviews on hookahs which seem to be from the same company as this, I was aware of potential quality control issues. As such I ordered from a site other than Amazon, which I've had good dealings with in the past and which I knew would handle any issues I had, but as it turns out it was unnecessary. Either I got lucky or this hookah company suffers from a lot of bad press, because while it's not something you'd find in the Louvre (visible seams, uneven frosting on the glass base, tool-marks on the lathe-cut metal stem, industry-standard ugly finish on the wooden hose grips, cosmetic marks on the tray, so on and so forth), it is reasonably air-tight (minor problem with a tiny leak where the hose ports connect to the stem; I sealed it, or tried to, with epoxy), and quite pretty glasswork despite it not being executed perfectly. Basically, it's a good hookah for what you're paying for. Don't expect perfection, but if you want it to smoke and look good to the average joe, this is a great hookah for you. Oh, and one final note, the other hookahs that come with cases on this site are basically from the same manufacturer from what I can tell (they send a small flier with the purchase showing pictures of them). The people who leave reviews saying they can't get these back into the case are morons, because it packs up nicely if you have any spatial awareness at all. Does need to be dismantled a bit (hoses removed, stem removed, downstem separated, bowl removed) but it's not like it'll take you more than thirty seconds to put it back together again. They actually pack it into the case for shipping, along with some air bags to keep things from moving around, so there's plenty of room in there to get it all back in.
tl;dr You're paying forty bucks, fifty with shipping. That's definitely a fair price for this, just don't compare it to a hookah that costs a hundred plus. Moderately handy people can fix most issues with it. Play a little Tetris and putting it away is a snap.", "label": 1}

It has three good speed settings, accessed by successive presses of the power button. As is common in such devices, a long press of the power button will power the device on or off. The power/speed button is located on the bottom of the device. This product requires slightly more force to activate the button, because there is a silicone covering that secures the watertight aspect for the power button, and the charging port.
The device is nicely designed, with a nice compact size. I like that it can stand upright easily (see attached photos). It comes with the silicone bristle brush head already attached. Two bristle brush heads are also included. The silicone brush head works well, especially for exfoliation. I found the softer bristle brushes actually enhances the foaming of soapy lather on the face. I think a smart move would be for a brush head that includes both silicone and normal bristles to get best of both worlds.
The brush heads easily pull off and press on. As mentioned, the three speeds offer a range from a gentle cleansing to a more robust scrubbing.
It's IPX7 waterproof, which means it can be used in the shower or bath without water damage. I always wonder how any cleaning brush could not be IPX7, since it will always involve interaction with water. Anyway, this product meets that requisite waterproof rating.
The initial removal of the cap was a bit frustrating, but once it was on/off a few times, it was fine. Although, I would advise that the cap be removed before you lather up your hands with soap/shampoo, because your hands will be slippery and you can't get a good grip of the cap.
Overall, this is a very credible rotating brush. This is a nicely manufactured product, with a simple, straightforward utlity: a rotating brush device with three speeds. It met expectations, and currently sits on the bathroom sink. Based on these initial impressions, this cleaning brush earns a solid 4.5 star rating, with a high level recommendation.", "label": 1}

I tend to use a cool mist humidifier in my bedroom (since I sleep with a husband and two large dogs and it gets really warm in there), and I prefer a warm mist humidifier everywhere else- warm just feels so nice. I sometimes boil water on my stove to help raise the humidity, but since I am not sitting next to the stove, I tend to carry a humidifier around with me from room to room. I have an old Vicks one that still functions, but I like the style of this one as it is easier to clean and set up wherever I am at. Takes up a bit less space.
I think I measured it at being 9-10\" wide at widest point, and about same in height. I currently use it most often next to me on the couch when I settling down for the evening (eat dinner, watch tv, veg out on couch with dogs). If I am going to be in my home office for long periods of time, i have moved it into there as well. If this continues to be a good one for me, I may just purchase another so I don't have to remember to move it around. I bet my dogs and my cats like it too since we have not been shocking each other as much when we touch.
Water capacity is just a half gallon. I can keep it going for several hours on low, and I didn't keep track of how long on high. But low setting is supposed to be 13 hours. I would say that seems accurate. Overall,. I don't mind refilling it as I am not trying to use it for days on end. I actually prefer the slightly smaller capacity because it kinda grosses me out to use water that has been sitting for a long time. SO this is kinda perfect for me. But that is really just a preference thing.
You will get greatest increase in humidity by using this in a small space, or if using in a larger space, then sitting next to it so you reap the benefits.
One more thing.. It has an option for additives- a medicine cup/vapor pad tray. I haven't had to use that yet, fortunately :)

I am going to get the con out of the way first. The chain in the center is not quite long enough, it should be a bit longer so that the center of the chain can be placed in the bottom's mouth to give a bit of an extra tugging sensation if wanted. Nit picking, I know, but it should be a few inches longer.
These are not a high class set of clamps, they are not meant to be, hence the term "beginner". They can be adjusted to make them tighter or looser which is important for those who are just starting out. The clamps can be made moderately tight, true masochists will want them tighter, but for beginners, it is important to start lighter. Too tight can turn a bottom off of nipple play in a hurry if they do not have a good pain tolerance. We call that breaking our toys and it's not a good idea. (It can also get you thrown in jail, play safely and sanely, if both of you are not saying yes, it's no longer consensual. I don't give a darn what they print in books like Shades of Gray. Consent is a MUST, period.)
These have padded rubber on them that helps to alleviate the "bite" or "pinch" somewhat. The tightest is still not as tight as other types of clamps which is good for beginners.
They are an inexpensive set as expected by the price, but still are quite nice and for the amount of use a beginner will be giving them, they will hold up nicely. They are metal but light weight. (Needs to be light weight for beginners or there would be too much of a tug against the nipples.) If heavier clamping/more weight is desired, the person can move up to a better quality set.
One other minor flaw to note is that they are for small nipples, not the nipples found on larger breasts that are larger than a lady's pinky nail. For bigger nipples and a beginner, the clamp must be placed slightly behind so that they do not pinch unmercifully.", "label": 1}

Not to mention it can take a long time just for it to figure out what your weight is and or fat percentage (10+ seconds sometimes, ain't nobody got time fo dat)....and it confused me with being a Guest after I lost a couple of pounds wtf!

Pros:
- Sleek design
- Fairly easy setup with wifi
- Display is friendly and easy on the eyes
- Uploads measurements automatically to fitbit.com
Cons:
- Weight measurement off by 6-9lbs (my other scale I've been using for years shows the difference and I even used dumbbells to check and it said my two 25lb dumbbells weighed 52.4lbs)
- Inconsistent when on different surfaces, floor, tile, wood, carpet
- My fat calipers tell me I'm at 24% body fat, the scale goes from 28%-31%
- Confuses easily between you and Guest account after a couple of lbs of weight change
Overall, the scale is a nice idea but it needs a lot of work. I think I may try out the Withings scale or something. Sadly I cannot recommend this scale but hopefully that will change in the future. There is a possibility that it can be calibrated and I missed that step? But I can't find any information on how to do so and why should I have to?

Unfortunately, like many other reviews mention, these newer blowers go downhill in a hurry. I bought my first one at H.D. as their "biggest and best" backpack blower on the shelf at the time, used it for 1 1/2 years, then the issues started. It started, but wouldn't run at full throttle, and you had to play with the choke just to keep it going at all. Took it back and exchanged it for an identical model which they still carried. Another 1 1/2 years pass okay, but then the same issues started occurred again. Same throttle issues, but this time you had to pull the chain at least 10-20 just to get some life out of it. I followed all of the troubleshooting methods you can find online. All say about the same thing. "They run good until they don't....then you have to replace the carburetor." What? New carburetor at 1 1/2 years? Took it back to H.D. to exchange again, only to find that they no longer actually exchange it on the spot. You had to send in the blower (which was a 3-week turn around time in off-season....but that's a different issue with HD) and wait to hear if the repairs were covered by warranty or not. I helped out the clerk by telling him I thought it was the carburetor based on what I was experiencing and all the online posts on the issue. The clerk helped me out by saying that carburetors aren't covered under the Echo 5-year warranty and it would cost at least $130 to get it repaired through HD. Needless to say, I didn't bother sending it out for 3-weeks for a part that costs $35 online and is relatively simple to change out myself. Considering that this Echo blower has very few parts, why one of the major parts isn't covered in the warranty, or why the exclusions aren't notably called out on the box, is beyond comprehension. There should be big disclaimer in stores like H.D. about stuff like this if they want to keep any semblance of a good reputation.", "label": 0}

It\u2019s made from vegetable oil and has zero VOCs. Yes it is a two part finish but that is a benefit. The second part is a hardener, this helps cure the finish and strengthens the ware layer.
I\u2019m a professional hardwood refinisher and have used Bona Craft oil for the past year. It\u2019s very easy to apply, you can hand rub it on for smaller projects or for larger projects like a hardwood floor you can use a trowel or a buffer to apply. Wait 15-30 minutes and buff it off. Make sure to only apply 25-50 square feet at a time until you get comfortable with the process.
The biggest benefit is that it can be easily repaired, just sand out the damaged area and reapply. You don\u2019t need to worry about lap lines.
This is a mono coat finish, but you can add multiple coats without sanding between coats. You can also top coat it with Bona Traffic finish for extra protection. Make sure to follow the instructions on the can, different colors will have different cure times. Usually between 12-18 hours.
Update - The review that talks about this product staining easily is miss informed. Yes using a Bona Certified Craftsman is recommended but isn\u2019t required. I feel I need to make something clear. This product is Susceptible to water popping for a while after it is applied. If you get water on it or roll an appliance dolly across the floor with wet wheels it will look stained. This is not to worry though. You just need to water pop the floor to remove these marks. To water pop the floor use clean water in a spray bottle or the recommended Bona oiled floor cleaner and a microfiber mop. Work across the floor in sections working with the grain. Like a magic eraser this will remove the areas that the dolly rolled across or where you spilled water on the floor.
If you top coat the floor with at least one coat of Bona Traffic series finish you will have sealed the floor in and the water popping issue will be eliminated.
The following photos are of a quarter sawn white oak that we wire brushed, used a mix of Clay and Garnet craft oil then top coated with 2 coats of Bona Traffic HD Satin. This floor is hard as nails and with proper care with will last for the next 30 plus years.", "label": 1}

Now that that's out of the way, these \"Fiber One Oats & Chocolate Chewy Bars\" are very tasty and satisfying. They're moist and chewy, not dry and hard. The chocolate flavor is very good and predominates (as it should since chocolate chips are the 2nd listed ingredient). Outside of the whole grain oats, there's very little of that cardboard feel sometimes found in other health bars. Eating one is basically like eating a good chocolate chip type of cookie. Of course, these aren't really health bars (and Fiber One knows it since they're officially called \"Chewy Bars\") since the only thing \"healthy\" about them is the fiber from the chicory root and the whole grain oats. But given their low calorie count, low Weight Watcher point count, high fiber content, good taste, and overall satisfying feeling, I can live with that. The level of gas production also makes them self-limiting when it comes to eating more <g>. So, I'm happy to rate these at a Very Good 4 stars out of 5.

1. A "one month supply" is really only a one WEEK supply - the "effects" are supposed to last one month. Misleading to say the least. Should say it's a ONE WEEK supply.
2. I took pictures that show NO difference to my eye. NOTE: I used exactly as described on instructions. ALSO... my front, top 4 teeth are 15 year old porcelain overlays. Supposedly this system is safe AND effective on dental work as well as natural teeth. I didn't see it.
3. It is messy and a two step process... Tube # 1 is the a super stain treater and then tube #2 which you apply after using tube #1. The pic I have included was after tube #2. NOTE: The tubes themselves were a serious pain... most of the time they were extremely difficult to get open even with "careful bending" per instruction. I think I had ONE tube that actually opened without considerable force, which causes the swab to be displaced making it more difficult to apply the treatment. They also include a tube that you are to use while you are out and about and have eaten or had something to drink that could be potentially staining. It has a soft brush like tip.
4. Initially the solution didn't really effect me one way or the other, however by the end of the 7 days my gums were very sensitive. I have a sonic toothbrush with an all purpose name brand toothpaste and brushed my teeth prior to each treatment, which I chose to do in the mornings.
5. It is obviously a peroxide formula of some sort. You can taste it. With a bit of mint or something mixed in... but there is no hiding the peroxide flavor.
6. In the end, photos don't lie. I don't see any improvement at all. Photo number 1 is before... Feb 17... Photo number 2 is Feb 23. The rest were photos I would like to see if I were considering a purchase. Hope it helps.

I use water flossers all the time. The best (to me) is a particular name brand that has a tank, and is plugged in. I keep that in my main bathroom that has a plug nearby. Since I rely greatly on water flossing, I wanted to have one in my 1st floor bathroom, which is like the size of a closet, and has no counter, and no plugs. So, I have been tried cordless flossers for use in that bathroom.
Here is the thing I find with most of them: the water reservoirs are bulky and are hard to clean. I dont care that they dont hold much water. That is easy enough to deal with, but to have an enclosed cup that really can ever be cleaned out? gross. Then I tried one where there [[ASIN:B09L1H1G31 is no reservoir cup just a hose to put in any sized cup]], and that works really well for my needs. That one wins out over this due to one aspect- it is fully cordless. When I saw this Hangsun water flosser I decided to try it--it has appearance of regular plug in, but an open water top that makes me feel better about it drying between uses. I didnt need another flosser, but I wanted to find out more about it and report back in a review.
SO, this may be for you if you are (like me) in wanting a CORDLESS* flosser with an open water reservoir. I can easily add more water to it, it is easy to clean, and it dries between uses. Charge has been long lasting, so I like that I dont need to fuss. It is nice for use in no-plug areas. While cordless, I still feel attached, as I need to set the base down. Doubt I would use this in shower. With my other one, I may need to supply my own cup for water, but it can be any size, and I can use it in shower just by cupping my hand.
Kinda loud-- similar to my plug in name brand one.
I tend to only ever use one head- the slightly curved one. Havent tried the other options, and likely wont.
Of the half dozen cordless flossers I have tried (including a name brand cordless), I like this one, and the one I linked to the best. I use them secondary to my plug in.", "label": 1}

Flavor reminds me of the inside of a 3musketeers candy bar. Liquify that, keep it thick, and that is what it makes me think of. It is really thick, could easily water it down (or use milk of choice), or add to blender with some ice and get something that tastes much like a milk shake (or Frosty, reminds me of a frosty when I do that).
Not a \"low calorie food, but is within the norm for drinks and powders of this ilk. I love meal replacement drinks over plain protein as the added vitamins, minerals, and fiber make me feel better than protein alone. I make smoothies and use prefab nutrition drinks like this as a means to get something in my body when I dont feel like eating. I often dont have an appetite until half way through my day, but I will feel some low level hunger, and I know I need something to power me through my physical work day. So a simple smoothie usually works (and allows me to add in other supplements such as collagen, mushroom powder). That being said, at some point I am never quite satisfied with a liquid meal, but still dont want a meal. So I usually add in a few nibbles of something, whether it be fruit, veg, cheese stick, snack bar, etc.
Works great as a snack, or even as a \"dessert\"
Sweetened primarily with allulose, and finishes with some sucralose (Splenda!). I dont really have an opinion on either sweetener. I find both are very sweet, without an aftertaste, and I dont have digestive issues from it.
Pack of six, 32 ounce bottles which contain 4 (8 ounce) servings (all told same as a pack of 24 bottles at 8 ounces each). I like the option of it having a few servings worth in one big bottle as it cuts down on packaging. But it also reduces my ability to just grab and go. However, they do carry these in other sizes!
Price per ounce is very similar to others with blood glucose support in mind.
I have to say, I didnt know what to expect. With my first sip, I was impressed with taste, texture, and how there was no odd taste or funny after taste. Really quite pleasing flavor. The extra thick texture makes it versatile. Thick makes it feel like a shake, and triggers belly into thinking there is something in there. But it also allows for it to be watered down some if you want something to sip.
I'm impressed, and would recommend this. Of course, take a look at ingredients and decide if it is good for your needs.", "label": 1}

The cleaning sheets are as expected--I read through the product description before ordering. I think I have used something similar in the past as it felt rather intuitive to use. Just add a sheet to water, it instantly dissolves. I think 1 sheet per gallon, give or take. Can be stuffed into a cleaning bottle for a spray solution, or can be added to a bucket. Smells nice, works well. Small pressure zip plastic packaging. Little footprint. Really no waste.
I have used it primarily on counter tops and tubs. While it mentions floors and walls, I just use it as a basic cleaner--seems gentle enough. My rag picks up a lot of dirt, so I know it is effective. Current price of $5 for 30 sheets makes this a budget friendly option, especially if looking for something that doesn't take up much space, or plan to use it in a spray bottle. Of course, there are liquid concentrates that would offer same. But hey, I thought it worth pointing out.
I really think it is an ok product!
Lack of directions is a concern, though. I dont mind information in another language other than English. If I can't figure it out, then using a translator app, I pass my phone over it. Odd thing is, there aren't any instructions. The most info you get on this product is what you see here on the product page. There is no workable information printed on the package. So I dont down rate because of the info not being in English, I down rate because there simply is no info! I will include a picture of the translated text. But even so, I think nearly anyone could/should be able to figure this product out.
\"Water-Soluble Cleaning Sheet: Concentrated cleaning sheet will quickly dissolves upon contact with water and is immediately ready for your cleanup job\"
I DO like these cleaning sheets. I clean homes for a living, and while I dont always need my own cleaners, I do keep a few in my tool kit. Having the option of mixing something up on the go, and having no added weight or mess to carry around is highly appealing. I would even tear off half a sheet and add it directly to a toilet. It does dissolve instantly, easily, and smells good and fresh. Not too strong. No need to rinse.

Then there is the mess monster. He leaves a mess that no one knows anything about. We also have another monster which has been frustrating me - the dustpan monster. This monster not only makes dustpans disappear for months at a time, but when they come back, they have bites out of them or corners missing. When I saw this, I was ecstatic. Let's take a look.
WHAT IS THIS SET LIKE?
This set comes in a box of parts. You have to put them together, but the instructions are easy to follow and loaded with pictures for those who are visual learners. Once the set is assembled, you end up with a broom and a dustpan that clip together when not in use.
HOW DOES THIS PERFORM?
I have to say many brooms have left me wanting more. This one, however, works just right. It is not the BEST broom I have ever used, but it is definitely way better than many of them. The cleaning feature of the dustpan is fantastic. It really works.
DOES THE DUSTPAN LEAVE DIRT ON THE FLOOR?
If I press down the dustpan lightly, I find that 95% of the dirt goes in the first time. I might have to press down with my foot for very fine dirt, but for the most part, it works well.
DOES THE DUSTPAN LOCK?
The dustpan locks into place, but it also is not hard to press down to use either. There is no release button, it is pressure activated.
IS THERE A HOLE TO HANG THIS FROM?
No, there is not a hole to hang this from. You will have to use a clip broom hanger style to put this on the wall.
DOES THIS STAND UP?
When this is put together and the dustpan is up, the counterbalance of the broom causes this to stand up pretty well.
THE BOTTOM LINE
I am very happy to have this set. I love the dustpan which seems to work quite well and also has the great cleaning feature for the broom bristles. It definitely does clean off pet fur and dust.
MY RATING
FIVE STARS. I LOVE THIS SET. I have looked for a long time for a set like this- but the best part is that it stores well and stands up nicely too- It is compact.", "label": 1}

I eat whatever I want--although I am dramatically less hungry than I ever used to be and I have virtually no cravings for sweets (unheard-of for me) and I am not exercising at all. Just as a matter of documentation, I'm 46 and 6'4.
I have 30 more pounds to lose, and the only reason this is a four-star review instead of a 5-star review is that my weight loss does appear to have stopped. It's been difficult to find clear guidance on whether it's safe to take more of the supplement, and if so, how much more, and that, too, is frustrating. I don't know anything about other brands of this stuff, although I saw a Consumer something or other report in which a couple of the other "top" brands were found by laboratory analysis to have either less or NONE of the active ingredient in them. This particular brand was not included in that study at all.
I'm not brand loyal by any means--I don't give a darn who makes it and am more than happy to switch if I find a cheaper manufacturer--but I have stuck with Miracle because it worked at least this far (and I still have three bottles left).
To those who tried this and had no benefit, I don't know what to say other than that I am sorry for your lack of results. I regularly eat steak, chicken, salmon and halibut, rice, homemade pasta, quality cheese, organic fresh fruits and veggies, dry roast almonds, homemade ice cream and homemade cherry pie (a no sugar added recipe for the latter) and I drink about 2 cups of Twining's Green Tea every day. As I said about, I find I'm hungry for (and thus just comfortably eat) much less of these foods at eat sitting than ever before, and have been happy to do so. The supplement is expensive, but I have saved a ton of money taking dinner leftovers to work for lunch the next day.
Assuming I continue to have curbed cravings and reduced appetite, and assuming my weight loss resumes soon, I really couldn't be happier. It's hard for me to imagine that this is just a fluke, after trying to budge my weight unsuccessfully for six years and then lose 20 pounds in 90 days. Will it all come back if/when I stop taking the supplement? Is the supplement safe to take long-term to keep my weight down, if the cravings return? As far as I can tell, nobody knows yet.

BenGay works for us. But then, at the chiropractor, I started using BioFreeze. I guess I should back up a little:
My husband has scoliosis, so his back always hurts. Personally, I have a neck injury (including a spur), a mid back injury from a car wreck, so I have a lot of scar tissue under my shoulder blades. I have also just been diagnosed with arthritis in my foot. I probably have it in my knees and elsewhere, going to a rhuemy in a few weeks. Anyway...I guess what I am trying to say, we have pain. We are both pretty active, don't like to take a lot of meds, but like most, do not like pain. Who does?
So, Biofreeze, I like BioFreeze, you can get it in a big pump bottle. It is more of a gel and spreads okay, it just seems like I have to use a lot. IcyHot, I had to buy that, we were running out of BioFreeze and the store didn't have BenGay. IcyHot is 'okay'. It is hard to spread and it seems like you have to use a lot of product.
Now RELIEFOR. I honestly like it. I had a chance to try it for a discount in exchange for an honest review. I am glad I did. I like the consistency. It is not a lotion, not a gel. It is a light blue liquid cream and spreads so nicely. I used it on my husband's back and it it spreads around so easy. He said it didn't feel as 'hot" as others he has tried, but I had also just given him an alcoholic beverage and he was feeling pretty relaxed. --- Me...I tried it on my neck and shoulder, knee, and foot. I like it. It brought relief. It brought warmth. It was easy to put on and absorbed well and is non greasy.
I would like to look and see if they carry bigger sizes. I would buy this again. It is probably my favorite out of all the creams I have tried. Really! So, I recommend trying it and seeing for yourself.", "label": 1}

I normally don't associate \"mom and pop\" with Chinese-made products, but the range of quirky sounds that come out of this sound machine have a \"homemade\" quality that are bizarre, to say the least.
This machine boasts supposedly 48 sounds, more than most sound machines. Unfortunately it includes a number of sounds that I have a hard time believing would help me sleep. There is something called ASMR which is the science of producing soothing, repetitive sounds that cause a tingly or comforting sensation in the listener. However, someone seems to have misread the concept, for the \"ASMR\" section of this machine includes the sound of someone moving furniture around, swallowing and then gurgling water loudly, and munching a bag of potato chips.
In addition, there are weird combinations of sounds - instead of a crackling fire, it has a crackling fire while music plays in the background (as if you were inside a restaurant) and the murmuring of people chatting and moving around in a coffee shop. If I wanted sounds like this, I would just keep the TV on all night.
To top it off, the \"music\" function includes lullabies sung in English by a Chinese woman with a thick accent. She sings \"Twinkle Twinkle Little Star\" but her English is so bad it sounds like \"Tinkle Tinkle Litto Star.\" It's followed by her off-key rendition of \"You Are My Sunshine\" with a breathless voice that reminds me of a bad karaoke session.
Then there are the lights, which I could not for the life of me figure out how to control. It has a light on the bottom and a light on the top. It seems almost entirely random which light goes on and off and I had a hard time dimming or turning off either light.
The controls require some pressure or strong tapping in order to work, so this would be frustrating for someone used to sensitive controls or an elderly person with limited finger strength.
I like the fact that the display shows the temperature and humidity, but there is no clock setting.
While it does have the usual quotient of sounds (ocean waves, birds chirping in a forest, etc.), even these sounds lack sharpness and comes across as rough (just like everything else about this machine). Because of the bizarre sounds, however, I wouldn't feel comfortable gifting this to anyone unless I made it clear it was a gag gift.", "label": 0}

But after a few minutes, it started to feel pretty good. A few more minutes and I really felt my back muscles relax. Very nice!
There are two rotating balls on each side of the pad. They have infrared heating (which you can turn off) so you get a nice gentle heat during the massage. The balls automatically invert their rotation direction after a few minutes to keep the massage from getting monotonous.
The front cover is a mesh material that feels pretty sturdy. The case is covered with what looks and feels like a faux leather. It has a good feel as well, and seems very sturdy. There\u2019s an elastic band on the back so you can strap this to a chair in the proper position to hit the areas of your back you want massaged.
The on/off switch is on the base and is fairly flush with the casing so it doesn\u2019t stab you in the back if you lean against it. Press it once turns it on with heat; press it again turns off the heat; press and hold turns it off. It\u2019s powered by a transformer (included) that plugs into the wall outlet, or via a car power port adapter if you want to use it in the car while driving.
The sound level is muted, but clearly heard. It makes a grinding, whirring type of sound while operating. It\u2019s not grating, but it\u2019s clearly loud enough to hear in the next cubicle if you plan on using this at work.
The warmth level is moderate. You readily feel the warmth penetrate your muscles, but it is not what I would call hot.
My main complaint is the size \u2013 it\u2019s rather small in terms of coverage when used on my back. While the overall size is reasonable (about 12 inches wide and 8 inches tall at the widest parts) the massage action is limited to a much smaller area. Something that was a few inches larger would make a big difference in the coverage area. It's also rather thick and bulky (about 4 inches thick) so positioning it on a chair can be challenging if you have a narrow chair seat depth.
The elastic strap is also a bit too small for some chairs, and does not hold the unit all that securely. I ended up using it on the sofa and holding it in place by leaning against it. That proved to be more effective that trying to strap it to a chair and have it stay in place.
Even with these limitations this is a handy device to have if you have bad back or just get sore from sitting too much. It\u2019s a welcome massage break during the work day.

For a little background, I used to use unscented dusting cloths produced by a major company and designed to trap allergens as you dusted. That product was discontinued, and I've been rationing out my remaining supply and using each one until it is positively charcoal with dust. Search after search left me dismayed at being unable to find a disposable alternative. (I am all about reusable products, but with my allergies, I need something disposable for dusting.)
A month ago I tried the smaller size xcel cloth and was delighted that it did all my prior cloths did and MORE. I was especially impressed that it could grab damp grime and absorb fairly large quantities of powdered material such as a nutritional supplement I had spilled or laundry powder when cleaning off my laundry shelf. It also does a job like no other on the sticky grid of my HVAC return. I was especially surprised by the performance because of how very thin and porous these are--dotted with holes. After an initial wipe of surfaces using one side, I just keep folding and folding it until every corner looks sooty/brown/whatever the color of the dust or substance I'm picking up is. Due to how thin and porous they are, I thought it would be a good idea to pick some up in the larger size as well for times when I want to do a lot of dusting all at once. I like having both options depending on the cleaning job, as they pick up so much more than you expect that you'll definitely be using each cloth to the max and then throwing it out. I saw someone else say that these are like paper towels but better, and I have to disagree. They are in a whole 'nother class, and if you just swipe a mess on a counter with one side and throw it away you are missing their strengths. If you are wasting these for a quick wipe and not walking around your house/apartment looking for things to clean with every little corner, you are wasting them. One cloth can do so much!
Additionally, they are wonderful wet--both gentle and highly effective. As a case in point, I used to use a facial serum that contained seabuckthorn berry. Anyone who has used that knows that it is colorful and stains badly. Some of the drips from the bottle had run down the outside of the medicine cabinet and the wall. And I could never get them off without concerns about ruining the paint. However using one of these cloths damp was highly effective and gentle.

This could be due a difference in strength or because I've built up a tolerance to using it. My first order arrived cold in a styrofoam box. This second order arrived warm in a padded envelope. I tried it immediately with no noticeable thickening of the nasal rinse solution and no burning. However, my sinus condition improved within 24 hours so I will continue to use it. I recommend ordering during winter months.
If a tiny little scoop is all you need, then this is plenty. If you put 1/4 teaspoon in your sinus rinse like one reviewer recommended, you've only got 8 days worth here. I now use a heaping scoop in a half bottle of salted sinus rinse.
For the first two days, I tried it in my sinus rinse and with a concentrated mix applied with a q-tip. Both times, my sinuses started aching and I got a mild sinus headache for about a half hour. I also got less nasal drainage than usual.
I'm not going to try snorting it because the crystals don't dissolve easily and I'm worried that they could cause damage to my sinuses in concentrated form. But I am inclined to continue the combination because it obviously is having some effect.
I have non-allergic rhinitis. I was on antibiotics and prednisone for almost two years before I had sinus surgery. Now I get about one infection a year and live with a constantly runny nose.
You can read about the research behind Lactobacillus sakei and sinus infections at The National Institute of Health (NIH).
Addendum: Sinus pain today so I decided to add the powder to my rinse. First I did a salt water rinse with a drop of baby shampoo to wash away the biofilm (to give probiotic better access to sinuses). Then I added 1/8 tsp to a half bottle of warm water. It hurt so bad it took me three tries over a half hour to use it up. The following day I tried it without the pre-rinse and I only used a couple of tiny scoops of powder and it still seemed to trigger pain. It also seems to be thickening the mucus but not really decreasing it.
Three Month Addendum: Been using this episodically for three months now and it still hurts if I put more than 2 scoops in 1/2 a bottle of sterile water for a rinse. Nonetheless, the pain is tolerable and it definitely helps my sinuses. My sinuses were symptom free until I spent two days doing yard work and then the familiar stuffiness and bad odor returned. A full salt rinse followed by a half bottle with the probiotic has decreased all symptoms.", "label": 1}

The wrap itself appears well made, is easy to put on and comfortable. The instructions are awful and it takes a bit of time to figure out how to use it. Apparently the manufacturer/distributor is aware of this and sent me an email informing me if it didn't work they would replace it. So the question is what is it supposed to do. Using the "red" setting for intensity and time and waiting for 15 minutes to warm up I could barely feel any heat, only slight warmth (not very therapeutic) over the course of 30 minutes or so. Maybe for the price that's about all one should expect. I'll be shopping for a better one.
4/1/18 Update. After periodic use of the wrap I am changing my rating from two stars to four stars because after use I discovered the heat is adequate, although it could be a little hotter. The major problem, as noted by others, is the control. It remains unclear how to keep the wrap in the warmest (Red) mode, and as another reviewer noted you have to keep checking to make sure it hasn't switched to cooler (White or Blue) modes. I suspect there may be a way to eliminate this problem but with such poor documentation it is impossible so far to keep it working correctly. In summary, this is a nice well made wrap that attaches to the knee well. If the cord was longer and the controls worked better this could be a very good wrap for applying heat to the knees.
4/8/18 Update. After continued use I am changing my rating from 4 to 5 stars. I have found that when tightly wrapped (which is easy to do because of the softness, flexibility and large velcro attachments) using the red setting (hottest) it heats to a very comfortable temperature. The setting controls could be improved or maybe better instructions should have been provided. This is what I am now doing. After pressing the large plastic square control button for a second or two, color/temp is selected. I press it when it lights red (this is the hottest setting; it also has two lower ones-white and blue). After a few minutes the setting changes to a cooler (white or blue) color. I then re-press the red and it stays at this setting/temp, until I turn it off. It really works well, provides a very comfortable warm, pleasant temp and fits very well over the knee.area.", "label": 1}

Having proper eye protection during the day is critical to your long-term eye health. Not only that but my eyes have changed as I've aged and I need reading glasses to see anything up close. Finding a way to keep both pairs of glasses close and handy became very important to me. After seeing a friend wear both pairs of glasses around his neck I realized that his method worked very well.
Since you virtually have one or the other pair of eyeglasses on most of the time, there just appears to be one pair hanging from your holders across your upper chest. Need to put on your sunglasses when going outside? Just switch from your reading glasses. No more putting your eyeglass cases down and forgetting to take them with you. No more glasses falling out of your pockets and getting bent or broken when you (or a friend) steps on them.
I bought two different pairs to try out, these HOLDIE Classic PU Leather and a new pair of Croakies Premium Leather. Both are leather, both have adjustable rubber clips to fasten to the bows of the eyeglasses, and both can be adjusted to fit just about any type of eyeglass bow. These are both versatile because the design of the rubber clips allows you to fasten them to most types of eyeglass bows. The type of holder that has hollow cloth (or rubber) ends lets the glasses slip out of the holders and fall off. Plastic clips (instead of rubber) tend to break under stress.
These HOLDIEs are a "Number One Best Seller" on Amazon with 191 reviews and a 4.3 star average rating. They are sold in a 3 pack for $12.99 for an average cost of $4.33 per unit. Each of the three units comes in a different color for matching your outfits: black, dark brown, and light brown. Nice touch that. My only concern is that the leather straps (26" long) are flat and made of raw leather. That can be a problem in hot climates as raw leather (think leather watch bands) can absorb sweat and begin smelling a bit funky.
Overall though it's nice to have three different colors and know that they are well-made. They also have a bead in the center of the strap to allow you to tailor the length to whatever you are comfortable with. Made in China but well executed.", "label": 1}

The trimmer body is a cylinder that isn't very ergonomic in its design -- which a professional would definitely notice. The design is interesting and somewhat artistic in the darkish metal.
The entire design of the trimmer is similar to the mercurial style known as \"steampunk\" in people who are familiar with that artistic genre. The metal parts made of dull metal mixed with shiny metal along with the etched artwork of a bearded man circa 1850 give it that touch. It would be a nice gift for that kind of hipster person on your list.
It operates okay and has a few different interchangeable blades to adjust the trim length. It recharges via USB cable and has a blue LED display that goes to '99' when fully charged.
There are a few things that make this less than a professional trimmer. First, the pin mechanism that moves the lower blade when the motor spins is exposed. This is to give it the intended style, but it also presents a hazard where hair can get caught in the exposed mechanism with a likely possibility of hair getting wound around it and yanked out. This is covered in every professional set of trimmers that I've seen and having it exposed would immediately put it into the category of \"personal\" rather than professional.
The handle is made of a somewhat shiny metal, etched with the artwork, but it's a simple cylinder without any attempt to create a more natural fit for a hand -- in other words, not ergonomic for someone who would be holding it for long periods of time.
The other thing is that the battery life is decent if you're using it once a day to trim up your Victorian era beard and moustache, but a professional might not like having to recharge it frequently depending on how much it's used. To its credit, though, this trimmer does have a display that will show when the battery is getting low, so that's a plus. It might just be attractive to a hipster barber/stylist.
One small nit-pick is that the blade cover is extremely tight-fitting and takes more than a simple flick of the finger to remove. I suppose that will get easier as it's used more, but I have to pry it off using a comb because my fingers aren't hard enough to get it to pop off.
Overall, it's a decent value for the price, but definitely a novelty for the hipster crowd and not made for professional use. But because it works well enough and would make for a nice gift, it still gets a four-star rating.", "label": 1}

The scent is strong so you don't need much. It don't really know what to compare the smell to, other than it smells like a feminine perfume... floral but with a bright citrus note too. On clothing, it's very mild, but if you are washing a picky male's laundry you might want to try something more herbal. My husband doesn't care one way or the other so this is fine for us.
I know fabric softeners/scent boosters/added stuff are not that great for fabrics but I like my laundry to smell clean. I respond to scent and I have found that I enjoy doing laundry much more if I have nicely scented things to use.
I was using Purex Crystals but the packaging is deceptive, it's only about 3/4 of the way full. I also have to use more in order to get the benefit of the scent. The Downy packaging is a bit better and I do the tiniest sprinkle. One bottle lasts a long time.
They open easily (I guess so people can try the scent before purchasing) and people can steal right from the bottle. I have found half-empty bottles on the shelf before. A friend of mine works in a department store and she says people will dump the entire contents into a ziploc bag and walk out with it! So be sure to check your bottles when you make a purchase! It's easy to just grab a bottle thinking it's full and get home to find that some is missing, especially if you're a distracted mom and are in a hurry to get home before your child has an in-store meltdown!
I now make my own laundry detergent and I use these in one of my batches (I make a softener/added stuff free batch too, for towels) and I am very happy with it. Only one step and no measuring when its time to wash. The recipe I use is from a blog called Aprons 'n Pearls and the post is called Homemade Laundry Soap (if you want to Google it, I found it on Pinterest). It uses washing soda, borax, Fels Naptha, and other ingredients plus these. You only need a couple-few tablespoons per laundry load so one batch lasts a looong time. It takes about 20-30 mins to make it.
I purchased this through Prime Pantry and it was $6.99 with a $2.00 coupon, which is still a little bit more than what I'd pay in my grocery store. But I needed a new bottle before I would have a chance to run to the store. I paid extra for the delivery but in store this is much less expensive, especially if you can find a coupon.", "label": 1}

As an athlete who runs over 100 miles a week, our kid was frequently dealing with pains and injuries from his workouts. When knee or ankle pain didn't ease up after a few days (and serious injury had been ruled out by orthopedists), the trainers would break out the DMSO.
Since then, I've used it on my own running-injured knee occasionally when the pain becomes too bad. After applying, the area remains wet and a bit sticky for about 20-30 minutes (remember to wash your hands thoroughly after rubbing it in). After this amount of time, you can wipe off any excess that hasn't been absorbed by your body. During this time, the area usually becomes warm, a bit rosy, and itchy. I also get a garlic taste in my mouth which is typical for most people. For those people who use it frequently, their bodies can begin to emit a garlic-like odor in their sweat.
DMSO is a by-product of paper making and is primarily used as an industrial solvent for herbicides, fungicides, antibiotics, and plant hormones. It's had experimental use orally as treatment for certain types of cancer. At this time, it does NOT have the approval of the FDA for use on humans other than as a specific physician-prescribed treatment for bladder disorder/cancer. It is FDA approved for use on horses and dogs, and is widely used in that industry.
It's important to note that the face and neck are more sensitive to DMSO and no higher concentrations than 50% should ever be applied there. Also, when applying DMSO to your skin, it's important that the skin is *totally* clean, dry, and unbroken because DMSO penetrates the body. As it penetrates, DMSO can carry any chemical that has a molecular weight of up to 1,000 units right through the skin and into the body, into the blood stream, and even through the blood-brain barrier. It also leaves the skin more permeable than normal for a few hours. There is a possibility that chemicals such as the dye from clothing in contact with DMSO-treated skin could be accidentally passed through the skin and carried directly into the body.
While I do generally experience pain relief when I use DMSO, I usually save it for when my knee is at its worst.", "label": 1}

I found out that Sephora now sells it, so off I went to buy some. I was convinced that it was the answer for my sun-and-curling-iron-damaged hair. I bought the almond mint one there and tried it a few times; quite frankly at the time I was disappointed and returned to my regular shampoo & conditioner. Admittedly my hair was in pretty bad shape. Well, a few weeks ago I went to the salon and had about 8 inches cut off. And I tried Wen on it again and had several good hair days. I became curious about this orange blossom scent which is not available at Sephora so I ordered it...
I actually buckled down and followed directions this time. It has taken some patience but I finally got the knack of how best to use it on my hair! My hair is now short in back, longer in front with bangs. The texture is medium-fine and I have a good bit of hair so it often looks thicker than it really is (humid climate plays a part in that!) First off: 10-16 pumps of this is far too much and takes forever to rinse out. The magic number for me is 5-7 pumps. Secondly, I use lukewarm, not cold water to wash and cooler water to rinse. And I do rinse well after leaving it on for the duration of my shower - this is very important as it will leave a film on my hair if I don't. Thirdly: I massage it very well into my scalp, adding a bit more water and then comb through to the ends.
Both the almond mint and the orange blossom work equally well, so I know this orange blossom Wen is the real thing. My hair looks and feels better than it has in a long time; it has bounce, shine and holds a style beautifully! I now only use a tiny bit of mousse on my bangs and spray lightly with hairspray and do not need to comb or brush for the rest of the day even in high humidity. I do work outside and so the style does fall some by the end of the day but that is to be expected with an active job like mine. But the damage and dryness that had been plaguing me have all but disappeared since I have been using Wen. When I feel it creeping back, I just use the Remoist Mask by Wen and that fixes it straight away.
A note on the scent: It really does not smell like orange blossoms to me, but it is pleasant with a fresh floral aroma and maybe just a hint of spice. I can still smell it faintly in my hair after blow drying whereas with the almond mint I cannot.
I am really happy with this product and do not intend to ever use anything else on my hair again!", "label": 1}

As a retired cardiac nurse, I must have advised literally thousands of people to check their BP regularly during my career. Maintaining a normal blood pressure can help prevent heart attacks and strokes. Until now, I\u2019d just use my manual BP cuff and stethoscope to check household BP, but I can\u2019t do this anymore. I recently gave my prized stethoscopes to my niece who just graduated from nursing school and is following in her aunt\u2019s footsteps by going into cardiac care.
How about accuracy? Checking BP for myself and my husband, I found this device to be accurate, and the readings were consistent with manual readings. It has an audible reading of results and only three buttons so is really helpful and easy to use for the vision impaired folks. Be aware that the voice is not only a stilted automated voice but has an asian accent, so is not that easy to understand. I\u2019ve turned the voice off on mine.
For setting this up, the first step is to set user, date and time. I found it a bit confusing because the year was displayed as 20, then on the next line was 22. Its possible to track BP for two different users. After the date is the choice of audible readings and display of BP as mmHg, the standardized measure used mostly throughout the world now, and kPa, which can be turned off. The device can be operated using four AAA batteries, included, or plug in using the included usb-c cable (charge block NOT included). The screen displays nice, large red numbers, easy to read, BP and pulse.
The cuff seems to be well made. Packaging states that its one-size-fits-all, but from my experience, this cuff may be too small for some individuals, and conversely, too small for others. When using, make sure the velcro flap of the cuff meets the white stripe on the inside to be sure its a good fit. If a cuff is too small, the reading may be inaccurately too high, and if the cuff is too big, the reading may be inaccurate and displayed as lower than it should be.
I\u2019d suggest taking this BP device with you to your next doctors visit. Have them take your BP twice, once with their normal process then with your new machine. While its perfectly normal for BP to vary minute to minute, if you find your new cuff to be consistently off, up or down, by a few points, then at least you\u2019ll have a close ballpark idea of how your readings at home will compare with your doctor\u2019s.
I honestly think every household should have one of these, and used regularly, at least once weekly, about three times weekly if on meds to regulate BP. I\u2019m very pleased with this particular monitor, and very happy to have it. 5-stars!
I hope you\u2019ve found this review to be helpful!!", "label": 1}

I wipe my leg with alcohol, and place on my leg without touching the pads with my fingers. The problem is that because of the curve of the leg, the pads have a tough time staying stuck, but instead naturally they start to curl at the edges. The strap doesn't really do much to remedy this problem. The pads still don't remain tight to the leg... which causes a burning sensation because the current isn't distributed properly.
Quell's remedy to this is to not fix their crappy electrodes, but to instead try to up-sell you on their more expensive sports electrodes. What they should be doing is offering a refund and fixing their product to work simply like they claim in their advertising. It's not like I'm the only one complaining about this. It's a very common complaint.
Honestly, I think this company is ripping people off. I don't believe for a second their "86% of users experience pain relief" claims. Just look through the comments on their Facebook pages / ads or here on Amazon and you'll see this number doesn't comply with actual reviews. I wore the device for 4 weeks and all I did was waste time, burn my legs and spent over $300. Since I purchased the Quell on eBay, I can't return it. The reason I purchased it on eBay was to save money. I figured with an "86%" success rate, the odds were in my favor lol.
What really irritates me is why Quell charges $250 for an overpriced tens unit that fits in a strap. They claim it's special technology but that's utter BS. It's a wearable tens unit for your leg. I can see them charging maybe $80 for this, but how they justify charging 10x the cost of my very good $30 tens unit that's actually more powerful, I have no idea.
And why they must charge $30 for 2 crappy electrode pads that barely last a week, when the pads for my tens unit only cost a small fraction of this price. They are the same exact thing basically, except the Quell pads are placed on a piece of paper with 2 snaps attached. How that justifies a 3x cost increase is beyond me. You'd think that a larger venture like Quell with national ad campaigns would be getting great deals with their bulk purchasing power... compared to a small company selling tens units strictly on Amazon.", "label": 0}

Seemed I always had bleeding gums, and bad breath no matter what I did, and it was discouraging. I recalled years ago using a tool exactly like this with more success with regards to frequency of use, so I purchased it.
Yes, it is reusable and self contained, which I like a lot, and fits much better in the mouth than some of the other reusable ones. But there are a few downsides. For starters, it's made of plastic, and unless one feels like raveling which ever floss one prefers using (assuming one didn't want, or couldn't get the refill kind made for it), one doesn't have too many options. Next, it has to be wound pretty tightly, or else it pops off the fork prong thingies, and even then it could do that anyway. But tightly wound means it doesn't curve around the tooth as much, if at all, cleaning less surface area as just using ones fingers to hold the floss.
The biggest problem I had with this, was with the floss itself. One day, it caught between my back teeth and frayed. Thin filaments were stuck between my teeth, and I couldn't get it out. While driving it somehow dislogged, and got stuck at the top of my throat, back of the tongue - I had to pull over because it was making me gag, and I had to throw up trying to get it out... sorry about that. From then on, I decided to quickly find natural floss, as if I am going to swallow bits of string, I'd rather it not be plastic. Well, turns out virtually all floss found in stores is made from synthetic fiber... even the vegan kind. And a quick search on amazon will get you silk floss... sounds fancy until you remember that the silk worms don't survive the process. Thankfully, natural fibers for floss, that doesn't kill animals, is out there, so I tried it out, and somehow it's thicker, than this floss here, but doesn't get stuck between my teeth! Makes no sense!
Finally, I got a proper cleaning from the dentist, started brushing and flossing after each meal, took turmeric for inflammation (turns out I had gingivitis, ew), and an alcohol-free herbal mouth wash, and within a week my mouth was clean again all the time!! I finally felt effective, and decided to just use my fingers to hold the floss, like a big girl, and just like that I'm flossing all the time, without this gimmick!", "label": 0}

If you look now you will see that Dasgro just sends you to amazon to see reviews. Amazon lets anybody write a review if you make an account to verify that you don't write multiple, but amazon also sometimes lets companies transfer reviews on their reputation. If the review doesn't say "verified purchase" it means that they didn't buy the product on amazon. Also, though I don't see the error now you may have seen the date that a bunch of reviews were moved to amazon being written as the date the review was written it is a simple error. Take note I bought my vitamins directly from Dasgro to get them cheaper in bulk, so you won't see "verified purchase" next to my name, but because my review wasn't transferred from the company that makes Dasgro you can see my other reviews.
Though, I haven't seen any hair regrowth (I suffer from the rarest form of alopecia areata eyebrow and facial hare loss) they are just good vitamins, and in less than one month I lost a bunch on warts that had been spreading on my hand that I had been trying to get rid of for over a year. Then before the second month was out a huge clump of fungus fell out of my nose this was in the spring. The winter before (winter 2014/2015) I had gotten two sinus infections and been sick many times. For a few years I had been suffering from ear aches, and had on three instances had fungus start growing on my tongue (which is very rare). After taking the full dosage for a month, and taking half the dosage for two more months, and since taking about one pill every two or three days (which I intend to continue forever) I haven't been sick once. I am now through an entire winter without a single cold! Also, you can have too much of anything, and that said I think you will get the best results from not taking a high dose (recommended dose) of this vitamin for more than a short time.

Also, please take note this is after I lost most of the hair on my head and gave up eating gluten which helped with many other problems I had and spurred regrowth of my hair.

But they aren't the most convenient food to eat daily, so I decided to give Nature's Bounty Artichoke supplement a try as artichokes are known for being antioxidant rich and for being good for digestion. The dose is one capsule once or twice a day, preferably with a meal. I take a number of supplements, so I'm taking just one a day. I find these capsules digest easily, and I've had no allergic reaction or adverse effects. I don't get any burp-up icky taste like I get with some vitamins and supplements.
The bottle contains 100 capsules (3-month supply for me) each with 350 mg of Artichoke Extract (standardized to contain 2.2 % Cynarin, 7.7 mg). The capsules also contains rice flour, gelatin and less than 2% Silica and Vegetable Magnesium Stearate. This product is free of milk, lactose, soy, wheat, sugar, fish, sodium, yeast, gluten and preservatives, and have no artificial color, flavor or sweetener. I've read that the Cynarin in artichokes has lots of possible beneficial properties. Nature's Bounty states these Artichoke capsules support antioxidant health, which I believe based on the properties of fresh artichokes. WEB MD also says Cynarin MAY reduce heartburn, nausea, vomiting, gas and even lower cholesterol. But I've read it takes weeks or even months to get the full benefit, so I can't really evaluate these possibilities yet. But I do believe at a minimum taking these supplements provides antioxidants, and I wouldn't be surprised if this product also aids in digestion.
I've read people with ragweed and other plants allergies can be allergic to Cynarin (though I've had no reaction and have those allergies). Also, this supplement may not be suitable for people with bile duct obstruction or gallstones. So it's best to read-up and check with your doctor before taking this or any supplement. I found Web MD to be a good source of information on Cynarin. I like this supplement and will continue to take one a day, but I can't personally attest to health benefits so quickly. I trust the Nature's Bounty name and these appear to be high quality supplements Made in the USA that, at a minimum, supply antioxidants.

Some things that stand out:
- the heating element. If this heats from cold water, I assume it would take forever. DO NOT expect it to do some miracle heating of cold or even cool water. Start with lukewarm water, warm enough that you can tolerate it but not "hot" if that makes sense. Then enable the heating element. I estimate it will take roughly 15-30 minutes to actually "heat" the water from this point, just to give you perspective. Plus your skin and vessels will thank you for the gradual heating.
- the vibration element. There's no real "massaging" here. It just vibrates. Good for the soles of your feet, yes. That's about all it'll really do for you. What irritated me is that the center separator has something in there that rattles a bit. Not a showstopper but it was annoying. (Yes, I removed the attachment piece.)
- The bubble element. I wasn't impressed. It's good to help the water heat up faster by introducing air into it, but you literally can't feel the bubbles at your feet with the vibration element enabled. Not nearly as dispersed or "awesome" as what the picture shows.
- Some of the nubs under foot feel higher than others. This is especially true near the pinky toe. A bit annoying, not a showstopper.
- I do like the separate compartment for storing the attachments.
- I also like the way the pour spout is designed. On the older model you could only go so high before water was spilling out the front. Here, it's small enough to pour out but not so large as to cause spilling.
- I did not use the rollers, I took them out.
- I use a tea tree soak and they dissolve nicely here. My feet are already looking and feeling much better after only a few days of sessions.

After spending 3-4 hours trying to unbox the thing off the crate and big boxes and picking the heavy chair from outside the house (the shipping company brings it on a wooden crate and will not bring it inside the house), I am not going to take it apart and box it up again.
2) The assembly instructions are not very clear. But after some thought you can figure things out. Both the side arm rest panels have a plastic button/hole where the fixed shaft from the chair is supposed to fix into. The one on the left-side arm rest on my chair keeps popping out from the plastic button/hole (see photos). Again, I contacted the seller for this and asked if they can just ship the plastic part but they refused and only option is to return the chair or get a measly discount for this and the above issue with false advertisement.
Other Cons before I get into the Positive stuff:
- Shipping on big crates and leaving stuff outside the house was not a good experience.
- Assembly instructions are very difficult to understand and maybe colored pictures would have helped.
- Pre-set massage functions are limited and there is no easy manual massage setting. Instead of a full program, I sometimes just want some part of the body to be massaged and I have still not figured out how to do that (See photos of remote and menu which I couldn't find when I was trying to buy this)
Now for the good part:
- Very solid chair (except for the left-side thing popping out).
- Looks/appears to be good quality (even though it is not leather)
- SL track is so much better than fixed. The whole family is fighting to sit on the chair for their turn!
- This is 2D massage not 3D if anyone wanted to know. I asked a question but never got an answer on this.
- The airbags do a fairly good job. Especially the legs.
- They provided extra cushion for back and hips which you can take off if you want a more deep tissue massage. If you leave it on, it hurts less.
So again, if the first 2 issues were resolved, I would have given this chair a 5-STAR rating because this is a very good massage chair otherwise.", "label": 0}

I\u2019ve been using this for about a week and I can already see a difference in my skin\u2019s appearance. My chronic perioral dermititis and rosacea-acne already look much more clear with less inflammation, so I\u2019ve already started reducing use of my medications. I\u2019ve also used it several times on my arthritic knees, lower back, neck and shoulder, and it seems to help with pain and inflammation. You can use any of the colors separately, or you have the option to use the red (plus the invisible infared light that comes on while the red is on), the yellow and blue lights ALL at the same time, or in any combination, which saves a lot of time vs. using each color independently. The Velcro strap works well to hold the device in a curved shape, and the device quickly becomes flat again when the Velcro is loosened or removed. And when using it for my face, I prefer to lie back with my head slightly elevated, with the mask in front of my face and neck (with the Velcro strap behind my head), as opposed to lying down flat with the device over my head. (I also like using this while seated in a recliner).
The device itself is made of a thick sheet of silky soft, smooth silicone, with the LED panel of lights protected by a clear sheet of acetate, which prevents you from inadvertently touching the lights. The acetate can be easily cleaned with an alcohol free cleaner as needed (I use Seventh Generation disinfecting spray and soft cloth). The included Velcro strap is long enough to wrap around most people\u2019s\u2019 waists if desired, or it can be doubled over itself to create a smaller curved shape if desired. The goggles that are included are soft and work well to protect your eyes from the bright lights during use.
And for what it\u2019s worth, I\u2019m a licensed massage therapist (though too disabled now to help others), so I\u2019ve had the pleasure of using many different professional quality spa products... and this device has the build quality of a professional device, in my opinion. Because this is so well made, and is capable of helping with skin conditions as well as pain relief, I definitely think this is well worth the price! This is MUCH more effective, versatile and more comfortable than the premium LED mask I previously tried!

Are these the greatest sponges ever? Depends upon what you're looking for.
Reviewers seem divided by one primary issue -- the texture of these sponges. I think they're missing the point. Texture isn't right or wrong; the issue is what kind of texture your face needs. This sponge, as stated on the Amazon product description, is "gentle," a description that automatically neutralizes complaints that the sponges don't "scrub" or exfoliate enough. These are not "scrubbing" sponges.
Having said all that, I can say that I really like these sponges. I don't need or want harsh exfoliation, but just a good face-washing -- something better than my bare fingers, but less trouble than face towels that require frequent washing. The shape of this sponge is just right for the face. The narrow end is for eyes and nose, the larger end is for chin, cheeks and forehead. The sponge fits these areas very nicely, and it's easier to control than larger sponges or washrags.
Another complaint of some reviewers is that they don't know "what's in the sponges." Again, the Amazon description gives that information. "Our sponges contain only TWO INGREDIENTS, ground root of the konnyaku (konjac) plant, and bamboo charcoal. No chemicals, no parabens, and no toxins." The konnyaku plant is edible and made in a variety of ways, including use as a dietary fiber and weight loss ingredient. As a sponge, it's particularly good for sensitive skin, or for people like me who just don't need or want a rough exfoliant.
The bottom line here is that these sponges are neither designed nor marketed as strong exfoliating sponges, so if that's what you want, these are not for you. If, on the other hand, you want sponges that will scrub/buff your face and leave it ready for your serum or moisturizer, these are terrific. They make cleanser go further, they 'buff' my face without scraping off the skin, and my serum goes absorbs better and more quickly after using the sponges. I clean the sponge after each use by squeezing it flat between my palms several times until all the soap is squeezed out, then hang it from a hook to dry. I use it morning and night.
So, why am I giving them four stars instead of five? One reason: price. Five dollars each seems a bit steep. It's made from a plentiful Asian plant, and while everyone deserves to make a living from their products, it seems the price could be a bit lower on these. Other than that, I recommend these sponges fully.", "label": 1}

Hartline in \"The Catholic Tide Continues to Turn\" spends a great deal of time on today's post-modern culture and attacks on the Church dating back to the Reformation. In the midst of what appears to be turmoil, Hartline notes that the Church has made great strides under the leadership of Pope Benedict XV1 - and these positive developments have not been covered by the \"mainstream media.\"
Hartline details Pope Benedict's visits to the U.S. (2008), and the U.K. (2010) which exceeded the expectations of the media and attracted massive crowds. He also highlights the World Youth Days and the lingering effects of both Blessed John Paul II's and Benedict XVI's on the youth of the world. Many have become the water and fertilizer for spring of the Church.
There are many powerful forces converging to make this a great time to be a Catholic:
* Very good lay leaders and clergy are emerging
* The Church is providing greater moral clarity in a time when moral relativism rules
* There is a boom at the parish level in bible studies and catecheses
* Catholic Conferences and programs (Magnificat, Marian Conferences, Catholic Professional and Business Clubs, the Napa Institute, etc) are growing geometrically
* EWTN is now broadcast globally while Catholic Radio has expanded into nearly every major U.S. market
Catholic Internet news services, You Tube videos (including a Vatican channel), and blogs are bountiful
* The number of excellent Catholic authors and speakers - lay and clergy - has grown exponentially
* Converts are increasing as traditional protestant faith traditions implode
* The Church is continuing to grow globally...and in the U.S.
Orthodox Liberal Arts Catholic colleges as a preferred alternative are gaining strength and students
* Screenwriters, producers, and directors are showing a presence in Hollywood and in the media
* Eucharistic Adoration is growing rapidly in parishes around the U.S.
As a producer of a Catholic speakers series, Catholics@Work, I see the good things underway in the Catholic American Church first hand, and have met many who are making the difference in the public square. Hartline's \"The Catholic Tide Continues to Turn\" would have been a much better book if he had focused more on the converging forces, those who are change-agents for the Church, and less on the \"resistant culture,\" secularists, and the attacks on the Church, particularly those that are centuries old. At times, I found this book to ramble and stray off topic.
On the other hand, the book is loaded with detail and historical facts which will be useful to those who are less informed about the state of today's Church.", "label": 1}

After confirming with Amandean that their gelatin product was also derived from cows that had been raised in pastures (primarily grass-fed) and were free of undesirable things (such as added gluten, GMOs, rBGH, ractopamine, or preservatives), I decided to give it a try. I found the Amandean gelatin to be every bit as good as the more expensive brand. The usage measurements are the same and, as a bonus, you get 2.2 pounds of gelatin from Amandean versus only 2 pounds from Vital Proteins.
Amandean deserves 5 stars for taste, quality, and quantity, but I'm only giving 4 stars because the package it comes in far exceeds that which is necessary to hold the product. I don't know if this is a marketing ploy to create the illusion in the mind of the buyer that they are getting SO MUCH more, but it is unnecessary since the weight is clearly indicated on the label. So if Amandean would stop wasting natural resources by using an unnecessarily large container, I would happily revise this review and give them the 5 stars they deserve.
In the meantime I'll keep buying and watching for a reduction in the container size. It's everybody's responsibility to conserve our finite natural resources.
FYI:
I use it to make a healthy and gut-friendly beverage that is much less expensive than outrageously priced bone broth, but just as beneficial. For those that are interested, I am listing the simple recipe below.
1-2 shakes of sea salt
1-2 shakes of ground black pepper
1/4 tsp organic ground turmeric (Note: organic spices are not irradiated, which destroys their natural health benefit.)
2 level scoops of gelatin
1 cup of organic chicken broth (Note: I use and like the Pacific brand.)
4 ounces of distilled water *
1 Tbs of organic coconut oil
(* Don't use tap water. It typically has chlorine, or chloramine, and fluoride in it; all of which are toxic and wreck havoc on your gut.)
Put the ingredients in an unheated pan in the order listed, except for the coconut oil. Do not stir. Apply a low heat (e.g., simmer) to the pan and let it slowly warm to a tolerable sipping temperature. When warm, add the coconut oil and stir. Drink and enjoy. Your gut will love you for it.

is because it helps me keep my back pain to a minimum, but also for the
other benefits. Unfortunately, I really have not made gains in about a
year. My workout regime has gotten stale and I probably need to change
things up. I have taken protein, but even that's not been something I do
regularly. I had the opportunity to purchase this highly reviewed creatine
at a reduced rate in exchange for my honest opinion and figured I would
also buy some good protein to go along with it. For the next few months I
will be religiously taking both the protein and creatine, obviously time
will tell as to what the results will be. Since I just started taking this
product, I cannot really comment on its affects. What I can say, is that
the product was packaged very nicely. The powder itself is very fine. I
read a lot about when I should be taking this. There are currently 3
camps. Camp 1 says take it before the workout. Camp 2 says take it after
the workout. Camp 3 says take it anytime, it just needs to be present in
the body. I read a pretty lengthy article that mentioned some support that
there may be some increased benefits for taking it after the workout, but
those tests were inconclusive. Ultimately the writer of the article said
that if you really wanted to maximize results taking it after would
certainly not hurt, but taking it at any point in time as it's convenient
for you would provide you with statistically sound benefits.
I have used some creatine in the past and wasnt impressed and stopped using
it because it didnt mix well and tasted terrible. I am happy to say this
stuff is great in that regard. I mixed this in plain water, nothing else
just water to truly gauge its taste. The results? No appreciable taste at
all. The powder when dumped into the water just kinda sat there, after
stirring the water it was cloudy and really never seemed to go away after a
few minutes of sitting. I went ahead and tried it and noticed no taste
even though the water was cloudy, there was a bit of "grit" to the water,
but its barely noticeable and mixed with anything would be perfect. If I

Review: As someone who has multiple chronic illnesses, I frequently am on the lookout for a new way to make sure I'm taking all of my medications and at the right time. I have so many different pill cases in my house and I still have not been able to make sure that I am hitting all of my daily medications as well as the supplments that would help me with my overall sense of well-being. Most of this is probably due to my refusal to spend more than I would pay at a dollar store for my pill cases and I have ultimately spent more on dollar store cases than I would if I had purchased one pill case that met my needs. I was offered this pill case at a huge discount in exchange for my honest, unbiased review. Sometimes that leads to my feeling worried that I won't be able to give the seller a review that is helpful or one that makes them feel good about their product, but in this case, the product makes it really easy.
When I opened the survive vitamins 7 day organizer, the first thing I noticed was the bright green color. Another huge plus for this item is that it's easy to hold, neither to large or too small. When someone has small hands or arthritis, this can be important. I tested how easy it was to open the daily pill slots and they were a little stubborn, which is a bonus for a product such as this. I would feel comfortable carrying this case in my purse, a briefcase or a computer bag and I would not feel worried that it would open up and spill the contents. I will be using this case for my midday pills and I'm excited to finally have a case that I trust not to spill into my bag. It's bright green-ness ensures that it will be easy to find even if it falls to the bottom of my very large bag.
I'm really pleased with this pill organizer and I'm looking forward to using it along with some new pill reminders on my phone. If you need a midday pill case, I highly recommend this one. I purchased this pill case at a deep discount so I could offer my unbiased and honest review of it. All opinions are truly my own and it is my pleasure to be able to offer others my thoughts so they might be able to make informed decisions as to whether products are appropriate for them.

To be fair, I DO also sleep with earplugs most of the time (I am a nut about sound) but even without plugs, my husband has still come and gone long after I am asleep, the dog barked or scratched in the night, and I never stirred. First time I tried to fall asleep with Marpac and without earplugs I thought \"Too loud, I'll never fall....\" Zzzzz... Street and people noise outside are drowned out.
It seems like it works in layers creating its own wall of white noise - if Marpac is the closest sound to me, it works best to disguise noise outside of that closest layer. I put Marpac between me and the source of the noise (side of the window or wall where bulk of noise comes from) for best results. I am sure you would still hear someone snorting right up next to you however. Someone described it as the constant rush of air sound you would hear in an airplane, and I'd agree. Some reviews say it's too loud - well, depends on your sensitivity and what you need! I want it to totally mask outdoor noise (I am in a single family home, residential area, so people noise around the yards, typical residential street noise, early birds, etc.) and I do not find it too loud at all. Can easily hold a normal conversation in a room with the machine on. I bought the 580 as the top twists and adjusts to allow more or less sound. The lowest sound (the smallest holes opened to allow sound) is not too much for me but I can see how some people would think its loudish. I move it around the room to suit and I can adjust to make louder, which is why I got the 580 vs. the other model.
An example of use not just for sleeping: I can hear the kids next door, one property over, playing (read: screaming and banging things really hard on the ground) to varying degrees in my own home and I was at my witts end, and I even have extra wall insulation for sound. Can NOT tolerate noise. Priced out sound proof windows. $$$$!!! Bought another Marpac to keep downstairs. Listening to the tv over the Marpac is not an issue and I don't have to have it blaring to hear over Marpac. The air-sound just fades in to the background.
Note - it will definitely help drown out and mask the higher pitched noises. I tried to listen for the screaming darlings next door playing basketball over Marpac and couldn't hear them. It can not however stop things like heavy drum beats, loud stereo thumping...sound with vibrations you can feel through your body. You need to physically stop the sound waves from traveling in those cases.", "label": 1}

And with dogs and a family of four that includes kids, bathrooms can tend to get messy very quickly, so keeping them clean is a regular struggle. Those two spots seemed like the perfect place to test Pacific Spirit's special brand of DIY spray cleaner which, in an effort to save people money and reduce the production and use of additional plastic bottles ships its cleaning product in cardboard envelopes and has you create them in home.
It's an idea I'm fully on-board with and one we've used before with other products (not always as powders, sometimes as incredibly small, very concentrated liquid formats that you then dilute in bigger spray bottles. Again, if it reduces the ultimate environmental impact of shipping cleaning product around the world and the number of big cleaning spray bottles being made and not really recycled great. That's definitely a pro.
But, they still need to pull their weight as cleaning products.
So, that's the big question: Does Pacific Spirit work as well standard bleach, general tile cleaner x, Windex, etc?
As a general wipe down cleaner, like a Windex or bleach wipe, it seems to be fine, but where it didn't seem to be quite as strong was in the realm of stain removal, even though we erred on the side of higher potency and made it slightly higher in concentration than recommended in order to really give it the benefit of the doubt. That's fine, as we already have to buy two different products to use for those two general use-cases since even Windex or bleach wipes are particularly effective at stain removal.
So this package-saving product can still potentially replace basic glass and surface wash and sanitization sprays, just not something more specialized. That's still making an impact, even if it's not as big as one as we'd hoped.
***Overall Value***
It's absolutely cheaper than buying 6 additional bottles of a Windex or even generic bleach wipes at just $3 (at time of review) for a pack of 3 envelopes that goes on to produce multiple bottles of cleaning spray. That's a great value, and again it's much less environmentally bad than a bulk pack of bleach wipes that both has to ship those wipes in larger packaging, produces a lot of waste in each wipe, and cost more to do both. Lots of value added there.", "label": 1}

And since we keep her hair relatively short, a little bit of crimping/curling is one of the few things she can do to add a little bit of extra flair without putting in extensions. Consequently, as she's gotten older she's started using her mother's curling iron A LOT and so we figured it was time she finally got her own. This seemed as good a place as any to start.
1. Auto shut-off
One of the key things we wanted for her first curling iron, more important than how good it was at making curls, was an auto-off function. While I trust her to be responsible and not burn the house down, if I can choose a model that has a built-in failsafe/time function (60 minutes) to ensure it doesn't just stay on all-day if accidentally left plugged in, I'm going to opt for that, and I tested it before giving it to her.
2. Easy to use
It's her first curling iron, it doesn't need to have any frills, just be of a size that let's her get a moderate amount of curl in her short hair. That's it. This does that, and she's pleased with the size of the curl/shape it adds. So everyone's happy.
3. Fast
Most of this thing's use is in the morning before school, so if it works it needs to heat up fast and do the job faster. So far, we've not had any school day mornings where the curling iron was a cause for delay, so that's a mark in its favor.
Last but not least...
4. Safety
None of the pieces or latches appear to be loose, the handle is responsive, and she has plenty of clearance between the iron and skin. The kickstand works and doesn't collapse or tip over.
And there it is, the four criteria this curling iron needed to satisfy for us to be comfortable with our daughter having it as her own and it passed. I'm still going to pick it up from time to time and ensure nothing has come loose, but for now, I trust her with it and it to not harm her.
Is it a good value?
It's probably not the cheapest model for a girl's first iron, but I'd rather have one with the auto shut-off than a dollar store model without it. The peace of mind is worth it.", "label": 1}

Thin cheap electric tooth brushes have meters on them to let you know when going low. Instead of playing the mission impossible theme song. Risking half a head or face or body not trimmed. I learned that letting the trimmers go as long as you can on one charge the trimmers batterys last long time. I was a rookie with the first trimmer and left it charged all the time thinking itll not go dead that way. Then i noticed the run time was getting shorter and shorter. With wahl you could plug it in to charge and use it to finish what you died on. This one it stops charging when you turn it on. This one also has a turbo button. And blade adjustment on the blade it self not a clip. It cuts nice and close and doesnt knick you like the wall wider blade it had so i kept using the smaller blade. I also wish this one had a rubber handle to help with the viberation. Which isnt that bad but used to the whal rubber handle that also kept the chance of slippin to a minimum.

Update not worth getting. Doesnt hold a charge long after first 3 trys. And i dont keep them plugged in like most people do. It kills them way faster. Then today. It just died wont turn on.

They are not as tasty as my menthol Virginia Slims, or my Misty menthols, or even the generic menthols I was smoking at the end because cigarettes had gone up so high, but they approximate smoking well enough, and taste enough like menthols, that I was not only able to quit with no nicotine withdrawal (because I switched to these a month before I quit), but also I always had my pack of Honeyrose around after I quit in case I felt the urge for a smoke. That urge dissipated over time. I haven't smoked one of these in a couple of years, but I still have a pack in my freezer just in case.
I didn't follow the Honeyrose advice specifically. I just stopped the nicotine cold turkey and switched to these. The habit was really more compelling to me than the nicotine addiction, so the act of smoking overcame whatever withdrawal symptoms I had. Then I quit smoking the herbals. I did it out of town, out of the country even, while staying with a friend in Montreal, not around smokers, and it went OK. I'd say, \"I want a cigarette,\" he'd say, \"You're missing the point,\" and that would be that.
I smoked these on and off for years after I quit, sometimes just one or two, sometimes a bunch if I was drinking. I always enjoyed smoking (which makes it really hard to quit in standard ways -- nicotine delivery systems really aren't helpful for me, as I miss *smoking*), so it was nice to have the option to have an occasional cigarette.
I still walk by smoking people and breathe in their smoke and enjoy it. I remember that during my transition time I ran out of herbals and bought a few packs of regular menthol cigarettes while I waited for my Honeyrose cartons to arrive. The nicotine does make a difference, and you really realize it more when you haven't been getting any.
Btw, these cigarettes smell a bit like pot. I've gotten a few weird looks. I was once outside a Greyhound bus smoking and someone asked, \"Do you realize ...? \" and I said, Yep, I know, they smell like pot.\" :) I was at a music street festival in Montreal at some point after I quit, and I commented to my friend, \"Hey, people are smoking herbal cigarettes.\" ;)
They may not be just as good as the original menthol cigarettes I smoked, but they always felt good to smoke. And I think it's fine that they don't taste like smoking, since it's better not to smoke anything at all.

For strangers to this world, Soylent Powder tastes to me like milk that's been blended with some fiber and a hint of banana, making a slightly gritty and thin shake. It's really pretty tasty, and takes well to any flavorings you want to add. Definitely something you can eat for multiple days without getting tired of it. And yes, I've lived on Soylent for some time (although I'm a tall guy requiring over 2,000kCal, so I eat "normal" food in addition to Soylent).
What you get- 2.4 days worth of food. The Tub has 24 "servings" at 200 calories each, meaning the average adult needs 10 scoops per day. Soylent was invented as a total food replacement so you are supposed to live on Soylent for all your meals. With only 2.4 days in the tub, I'm just puzzled. Are you only expecting to live 2.4 more days? They should have rounded it to a whole day, even if they want people to mix it into their normal shakes.
What you don't get- If you order the pouched version of this product through Soylent's website, they include a free pitcher with your first order which allows you to prep a whole day of Soylent in one go. You don't get that with the tub, just a scoop like any tub of protein powder.
What you pay for- Soylent Tub costs almost twice as much as the pouches, which doesn't make any sense. In a bulk package like this, it should cost less. What happened?
Overall- It's the same contents as the pouch, for twice the price, and in an odd increment that doesn't divide evenly. This doesn't appeal to Soylent's fan base. I also don't expect it to take off with the nutrition crowd, because it contains more fat and sugar than most people would like to have in their daily protein shake. When I'm doing shakes, I prefer to have a protein shake in the morning so that it will balance out against the fats and carbs I eat during the day. This might make sense for people who just want to test the waters of meal replacement shakes, as one Tub is less commitment than the beginner subscription to Soylent Powder in pouches (which is 7 days of food, instead of the Tub's 2.4). But that's the only audience I can recommend it for, and then I'd encourage them to switch immediately to the more cost-efficient pouches.", "label": 0}

I was pleasantly surprised to open the box & find a blue scooter. I say surprised because I ordered black but had literally just complained to someone there were no good colors to choose from so black was the default. I like the dark blue I received much better. The scooter maneuvers very easily. The dual hand brakes are fantastic bc sometimes I have to carry something in 1 hand & steer/brake with the other. I also HIGHLY recommend getting a scooter with a basket. The basket on this has been so helpful.
There are a few things I dislike. The knee pad is shaped well but the padding is pretty hard and the fabric covering is hard too. After 1 day of using the scooter, my shin felt bruised and sore. You can buy knee pads, but I found putting a soft folded towel on the seat under my leg seemed to fix the problem. The paint on the scooter chips off easily. When I slid the basket onto the 2 prongs that hold it, it immediately scraped a bunch of the paint off the prongs. My other big gripe is transporting it. This scooter is too tall to fit easily in my car's backseat. The handlebars fold forward so you can turn the scooter upside on its seat but you have to take the basket off to do that. I was able to rearrange my trunk to fit the scooter so I found a solution, but it would've been better to have the handlebars hinge the other way.
Other people have mentioned the scooter hitting bumps or cracks in sidewalk, spots where the floor changes from carpet to wood, or in my case large acorns, which cause the scooter to pop up or bounce & lean causing people to lose balance or fall down. I have had this experience but that doesn't happen with just this scooter. That's going to happen with any knee scooter unless you get one designed to go \"off-road\". It does have a few flaws, but if you aren't needing it for a long period of time, it's a pretty good knee scooter.
Update: Now that I've used the scooter for 1 month, I have discovered things I never would've thought of. The vibrations from rolling over sidewalk cracks & dips & dividers, etc caused 2 of the bolts holding the knee pad in place to wiggle out. I had to go buy 2 new screws from Home Depot. I suggest checking your screws for looseness regularly. I've also found the metal basket vibrates against the metal prongs holding it and squeaks incessantly like nails on a chalkboard if the basket is empty. I suggest wrapping the prongs in electrical tape, duct tape, fabric tape, etc or something to keep the metal from touching. I'm sure these issues are not limited to only this scooter. So be prepared to make modifications to any scooter you purchase.", "label": 1}

However, she finally mentioned to me how nice it would be to have a reading light to allow her to read in bed or otherwise in low light.
I went about scouring the Net for reviews that indicated which of the scores of reading lights out there worked best for the Kindle.
It didn't take very long to see multiple well written and glowing reviews for this interesting Verilux light that uses a cold cathode tube for illumination.
This is different technology from conventional incandescent, LED, or even fluorescent lights, even though the nature of the lighting element on this Verilux is most similar (at least in terms of appearance) to fluorescents.
However, there IS a difference, that being that this uses a highly efficient low energy version of the same basic technology as that used in conventional televisions.
The result is a tiny tube about the thickness of a pencil lead extending the full 3\" across the reflector head that evenly distributes a pleasingly white light for its full length.
The light level is bright, but not so bright that it becomes unpleasant, and has two brightness selections.
It has a very good integral clip that permits it to clip to the top of the Kindle, allowing the illumination to wash the full length of the screen, all the way down to the bottom.
I also like that its slide switch has the \"Off\" position at one end and both of the brightness selections at the other, instead of (poor design if you see it) having the \"Off\" between the brightness selections.
Having handled this light, I find myself puzzled at those who mention questioning its durability.
I find it durable without being heavy, and I don't intend to use this to drive nails anytime soon.
Another nice thing about this light is that it uses two ordinary AAA batteries, making it easy to find a fresh set to keep the light going if you run out of power.
A very good idea that Verilux had when they designed this was to allow it to uses rechargeable Ni-MH batteries, charged with the included USB cable.
You can even run the light with no batteries at all, using the USB alone for power, making for a handy way to read while sitting at your computer.
I can make one suggestion to anyone who wants to use this with rechargeable Ni-MH batteries, which is to strongly recommend batteries labeled \"Pre-Charged,\" as those batteries hold a charge while not being used considerably longer than those not so labeled.
The pre-charged variety hold a charge for a couple of months, quite unlike the others, which self-discharge (run down while not in use) at a rate of approximately 10% per day.
My fiancee is quite happy with this outstanding reading light, and I will recommend it to anyone else I know in need of a reading light, be it a Kindle user or an old school cardboard and paper reader.", "label": 1}

I was a little skeptical about purchasing because there were only 3 reviews and I thought they were probably paid or got the product for free, but nope... just like a couple of the reviews mentioned, this somehow tastes clean...good and clean. The chocolate flavor to me has sort of a chocolate malted flavor, which I love. The ingredient list is simple. I'm overweight and using this as a meal replacement once a day. The only negatives (and they aren't really that bad) are 1) the sodium content is a bit high for me because I have hypertension and I'm trying to drastically cut down my sodium intake (@ 450 mg this means that I really have to cut down the sodium in the other foods that I eat). 2) the ziplock bag was broken when I opened the package (the package was still completely sealed, but when opened the one side of the zip was stuck into the other side which made it impossible to reseal). Luckily, I had a 2 lb container for another company containing the most horrible, gritty, plant-based protein ever. So I just dumped the other into the trash (Let's face it, it was going there anyway after sitting on my shelf unused for a year) and filled it with this awesome protein powder, then I cut off the nutrition label and brand label and taped it to the container. Voila! That problem was easily solved. I'll just save this container for future orders too, and I'll definitely order this again. The price is right, it tastes fantastic, and it's not loaded with a bunch of crap you don't want in it! I do hope that the makers come up with a low sodium version that tastes just as great in the future, but I'm willing to cut sodium in other foods because this shake is great-tasting and super convenient. I almost forgot to mention that yes, this powder blends SMOOTH. I haven't used a shaker cup, so I'm not sure how well it does with that, but I use one of those portable mini blenders that use the sports bottle right on the blender (I think I paid $18 for it here on Amazon), and it works perfect. I use a cup of nonsweet almond milk with a little water, blend that, then I add a few ice cubes and blend that just to make it colder. It really is fantastic. I've tried a lot of protein powders as well as shakes that already come as a shake, and this has them all beat. It's a creamy shake (there is no gritty texture), and it's so good. I'm happy with it and feel like it was money well spent on a quality product. Thank you JW!", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3043, "id": 29916, "interval": [500, 600], "len_words": 433, "len_tokens": 574, "text": "No one would ever accuse me of having skinny arms--they're quite plump past the elbow--and this thing stretches to fit my chubby upper arm just fine. It's not binding, it stays in place, and best of all, it cushions my sore elbow really well. Time will tell, as I've only been wearing it about half a day, but so far, I'd give it an A+. If there are any changes, I'll update.
UPDATE 5/5: As of today, I have been wearing my (what is it, Bird & Cronin?) mesh elbow sleeve/protector for a little over a week, and I really like it. To help you decide whether or not this is the right thing for your elbow issue, I've measured my arm in two places so you can compare with your own arm size; personally, I find reviews that provide this kind of info very helpful. So: just below the elbow, the circumference of my arm is 10-3/4". Just above the elbow, it's 11-3/4". The sleeve fits me comfortably with *plenty* of room to spare; the mesh is very stretchy. Seriously, it could stretch two more inches, maybe even 2-1/2".
Something you may want to be aware of is that it does tend to slide down during the night while you're sleeping, but a strip of medical tape on either end easily prevents this. And if, unlike me, you don't squirm around in your sleep very much, it shouldn't be an issue at all.
Conclusion: If you have contact dermatitis, a persistent rash, or any kind of minor cut or abrasion on your elbow and you're on the fence about this item, I recommend that you try it. My allergic rash (to a synthetic fabric in which I had encased a decorative bed pillow) had become increasingly irritated every day I left it uncovered, even though I had removed the offending allergen. The rash is now virtually gone, and I owe that healing to this garment as much to the hydrocortisone cream I used to treat it. We all lean on our elbows probably more than we realize--until we injure them in some way. After this experience, I'm convinced elbows don't heal especially well without some sort cushy covering; without that, you just keep reinjuring it. Of course, you could make a thing like this at home--I'm all for Do-It-Yourself, if you can make improvements without spending too much money or time. In this case, however, a homemade sleeve would probably not be much better functionally--and when you think of all the different bandaging products you'd have to buy to make it work, definitely not cheaper.", "label": 1}

I like to wear socks with treads around the house; because of a stroke many years ago I have drop foot and slippers fall off my right foot. But tread socks are always way too small, even the ones that claim to be the right size for my feet. I wear size 12W shoes, am tall, and have some edema in my feet and ankles. Until now, every single pair of socks I've bought both with and without treads have been too small and it's a struggle to put them on.
Well, after reading a lot of reviews of various socks on Amazon.com, I found that I am not alone. An overwhelming number of reviewers complain that men's socks sizes always run far smaller than advertised. So with that in mind, and for only about a dollar a pair, I decided to try these Single-Side Tread Socks XXX-LARGE. They were delivered today. I tried on a pair (which I am wearing as I write this) and I can't tell you how nice it is to put on a pair of tread socks that ACTUALLY FIT MY FEET AND ANKLES! They are perfect! They were easy to put on and they're snug enough to wear securely without being too tight.
I'm going to make sure I wash them in cold water so that they don't shrink. And if the tread wears excessively (as some other reviewers have averred), for only $3.24 for three pair I'll buy more. To me they're worth five times that price. Last night we had our first cold New England night of the season, near 40 degrees and it's cool in the house. These socks are snuggly warm, and with my weak right foot I feel confident in walking in them without slipping.
At the same time I ordered these, I also ordered 3 pair of black and 3 pair of white socks in sizes that on the surface would be ridiculously large -- they say they fit feet that wear size 16 to 20 shoes -- and all those socks fit my size 12W feet perfectly also. Lesson learned! I have no idea how the all the various manufacturers can be so wrong about their sizing on so many different brands of men's socks... but I can say with confidence and now from experience: If you wear a size 12 shoe and/or have any type of swelling in your feet or ankles, you'll probably be delighted as I was to find these tread-bottom socks that actually fit comfortably and securely and are wearable.", "label": 1}

I purchased the XL, which the seller indicates measures 16-17.7 inches.
The compression sleeve arrived packaged in a plastic zip bag. The zip bag is printed with care instructions. For washing you need to use a neutral detergent and hand wash in water that is less than 30 degrees Celsius. You are not supposed to tumble dry or dry clean this product. You also cannot use bleach or iron this product. It is made of 35% rubber, 55% nylon, and 10% spandex.
The product smells a bit like a craft glue when it first comes out of the package. It is not too terribly strong, but for some it might seem a little off-putting. The sleeve itself is black with a red logo on the front. There is a size tag inside the sleeve, but not the care instructions. I recommend keeping the zip pouch.
The material is really durable and yet it is very light weight. Not as thick as some of the neoprene sleeves you find. I actually really like the feel of the material. It\u2019s soft and yet very strong.
Putting the product on, it appears that it is sized a bit smaller than I would have thought. The top part is actually about 14-inches around. You can stretch it out further, but when you put it on it will roll down very quickly if you move. It says that it is elastic (which it is) but there is nothing preventing it from rolling down. It DOES slip.
Without any movement, I managed to get it to stay in place and I can say that it was incredibly comfortable to wear when it was in place. I could see wearing this all day (if it weren\u2019t for the moving) and not even realizing it was there. It was not super sticky or hot like some of the neoprene sleeves can be.
In a nutshell, I really do like this product except for the rolling down. It has a LOT of potential if they can fix that one issue.

Some old people (50-70) play tennis all the time even though they are playing with people in their late twenties. Some even beat them.
They get tennis elbow and probably other hurt parts like I do. They play over three days a week. They say people that hit hard strokes on them their arm gets sore so they use elbow straps or bands. Most use thinner straps or bands than this design. I saw at least 3 other designs. They all seemed relatively pleased with their straps. Two said they need theirs all the time I didn't want to spend much but wondered if it would do anything. My arm often hurt after playing for several months constantly for about 3-4 days a week. I decided to buy this. I tried stretching my arm before hand that never worked maybe someone has secret stretches I don't know them tell me. I bought this I couldn't wear it for very long, the old people said to wear it loose without it being too tight so I listened to them seemed to work better. As I wore this item I listed the pros and cons above. I am not a doctor but I think what these bands seem to do is tighten the muscles that run along the lower arm when you move your wrist or grip something this allows sort of a muscle tension that doesn't exist naturally without these straps. I think a thinner one like they had maybe better. I wish this was an elastic type of design. It would probably work better than this one because it doesn't give the strap is like firm unforgiving with a spandex below. So your muscle tenses constantly because of that and the heat of the spandex is not so nice in warm weather. I didn't wear it ever more than one game per each match, it does relieved pain slightly but the negatives exceed the benefits most of the time. I also didn't get instructions on what sort of placement or correct tension to use, If I did I didn't see them. I have other pain as well the top of my arm is also often hurt during several hours of play. The old people said to just get stronger their is no band for that. I also changed racquets which also can take some of the constant slams against it. Maybe a icey strap would be a better buy unless they make changes to design.", "label": 0}

For years my hair has always been so fine and wouldn't hold a curl for anything. I'm in my 50's now and have had cancer, my hair fell out and it is so thick and coarse, and the curls are ridiculous. Not that I am complaining!! But once in a while I'd like straight hair. I have flat irons, curling irons...and saw this and decided to give it a try.
When I got it my straightening brush, I was a bit surprised. It's much larger then a normal hair brush and a bit heavier then I thought it would be.
I washed my hair the night before and it was all brushed out, no kinks or tangles anywhere. I plugged in and turned on the brush, and waited a few minutes for it to heat up. Then I sectioned my hair to make it easier for me to do.
I started to use the brush, but it got stuck in my hair about 3 inches from the top. It wasn't stuck from having knots or anything, the red rubber "balls" that sit atop the brush bristles - one broke off and got stuck in my hair. Once I got the brush and ball out of my hair....I thought that would be it. I tried to put the brush through my hair one more time, and this time a huge chunk of my hair came out on the brush.
I then turned the brush off and put it back in the ox once it cooled.
That is my experience with this product. I don't think I've done anything wrong - I used it just as it says to use it. First try a red ball "protector" breaks off, and the 2nd try it took out a huge chunk of my hair. AND...my hair was FULL of static!! From just one pull of the brush through my hair.
Broke on the first try. Pulled out my hair. Gave me a bad case of static on one side of my head.
I can't return it because I've used it and it broke <and I will say I did nothing so strenuous as to make that rubber ball break off -no yanking to get the brush out of my hair!!>. But I did just waste a good chunk of my money on a product that- in my opinion - needs a LOT OF WORK.
Maybe this is better suited for short hair.

This is the first diffuser I have purchased where I believe the product provides the value I was looking for. I gave it 5 stars although it is not faultless.
PROS: Lights do not turn on immediately as with my other 2 diffusers. I do not want night lights to turn on as soon as I power up the diffuser since I primarily do not want night lights on. It is easy to turn on lights and select your color or all colors but it is a separate button (LEFT button). I find it very nice having a separate light button. The iSelector 500 ml diffuser provides a large reservoir to hold water for diffusing. Although I can't verify that the amount is actually 500 ml. However, the iSelector has lasted slightly over 24 hours at low volume when I put it almost at maximum volume. I was pleased! I can see it spraying (it is near a room light) and can usually tell the difference between low fan and high fan speeds. It makes my bedroom smell nice. It has separate button (larger CENTRAL button) for on and off and timing intervals or continuous on for diffusion which I like. Each time interval selection (i.e., 1-hr, etc.) lights up which to make it easy to choose. I almost always choose continuous interval timing but there are shorter options.
CONS To me the cons are not deal breakers but they may be a deal breaker to you so please read. The last button (RIGHT button) allows you to adjust the spray to high or low, which is a nice choice at times. However, this button is somewhat problematic as button makes spray low volume - high volume \u2013 spray off (3 choices) but there is no indication on your selection. This can be confusing especially if your diffuser is in a dark spot. It's obvious when spray is off but sometimes hard to tell difference between high and low spray volume. Some reviewers complained they had trouble telling this difference. Another issue is how the manufacturer describe the product \u2013 glass diffuser. This is not really true. The inside of the machine is all plastic although it states it is free of BPA. While it has a pretty glass cover, it goes over a plastic bottom and a plastic enclosing lid. Plastic surrounds the therapeutic oils and water. If you are looking for an all glass diffuser look further. This iSelector 500 ml diffuser is not for you. However for me iSelector is the best diffuser I have found. I am finally satisfied with this product\u2019s quality and will now stop looking for the perfect diffuser.", "label": 1}

The layout of the buttons are a little different from your usual hair dryers. For speed and heat, you can adjust it on the back of the \"head\" portion. For on/off and a shot of cool air, it will be where the handle is. The way I dry my hair is I go back and forth with both the heat and speed depending on how dry my hair is getting, so if I'm using the dryer I would have to briefly stop, bring it down to my eye level view, press the buttons, and continue. Although this does a great job of drying my hair, it just isn't as smooth for me in that sense. My fingers can't reach those buttons when I'm holding on to the handle.
I also found the sound to be quite loud. I'm not saying it is any louder than other hair dyers but probably about the same. It says 60 decibel and I don't know what my other hair dryers are on the noise level but it doesn't feel like it is any less loud.
I really like the magnetic nozzles that just snap onto the head. You can also turn it around if you want the wind to go a certain direction on your hair. I like the variety of nozzles they provided, which you usually don't get with other cheaper hair dryers.
What makes this hair dyer special is the negative ions/lava nutrients but I didn't notice much, if any, difference on my hair. I have long hair, quite dry and sometimes frizzy from damage of hair dyes, so I don't think any special technology will do much to fit it. If you have good condition hair, perhaps you'll get a more noticeable difference. Mine is too tangled up on a daily basis to notice.
Make sure to remove all the sticker that was protecting the machine prior to use. There was one I forgot to take off, which seemed to be blocking the air so the machine was making an extra loud muffled noise. Make sure to check the entire machine to ensure you removed the packaging, which can be dangerous especially when the machine/wind starts getting hot.
Overall this is a beautiful hair dryer with a cool, modern design. I do like it but it isn't the hands down favorite one for me. If you don't mind about the layout of the buttons perhaps this will be an excellent choice for you.", "label": 1}

The various sized heads allow for better control over where you are directing the light pulses, making it easy to treat smaller and larger areas, although larger areas such as the legs require some patience and time to fully treat. Luckily the lamp lasts for a very high number of flashes. I have fair skin and darker body hair even though I am a ginger on my head, so I am the ideal candidate; some darker skin tones are contraindicated for safety and comfort and those with red body hair will find it ineffective, per the manufacturer information.
I do feel a mild sting and will smell a burnt hair smell, particularly if I hit an area where I did not shave down the hair before use, but I do do not find it to burn or really hurt. Sometimes after use I will feel a residual warmth for a few hours in the treatment areas, less than a very minor sunburn, but I am using the device on the very highest level. It is not painful, I can just feel a minor irritation. Only a few times have I experienced any redness and it was very mild and did not require any treatment to make it subside. I find that the device can be a little finicky when using the manual mode, because I like to move fast so I am probably not aligning it as carefully as it would like (not a bad thing for safety really) so I turn it to auto and it will pulse as soon as I have it moved to the next spot (tip: pick it up slightly and place it down at the next spot so it knows you have moved it and it will pulse faster).
I have found this to be a well crafted device, which is much more convenient, comfortable and cost effective than treatments by a professional. Because it is an at-home treatment and they want it to be safe, you have to have reasonable expectations as to how quickly it will work. So far, so good!", "label": 1}

I did this test over several days to compare the results and to account for cloud cover, etc. On a typical hot, southern summer day, my car was getting to over 138 degrees. I do not know how much higher than 138 it gets because my thermometer starts flashing 138 when it gets over 138 and doesn't climb any higher. (Side note: When I had this same thermometer in my car in the summer in Arizona, the outside temperature was 112 degrees. This same thermometer not only flashed at 138, but the liquid crystals in the display turned the screen completely black until the thermometer cooled down some! -- That's HOT!)
Again, I had the same results for several summer days. I then used one of these solar fans on the side where the afternoon sun was shining. At the same time of day where my car would have been 138+ inside, I read 108. I did this for a few days to compare the results. Some days it was about 110 inside, one day 105.
My conclusion is that the fan is working. Lowering my inside temperatures down by 30+ degrees allows the A/C to cool my car's cabin down faster.
I have been using this product for a few years now. I use two. One on each side of the car to catch the pre-afternoon sun (eastern sun) and the afternoon sun (western sun for when I'm leaving work.)
Something that is also effective is using a windshield sun guard. You know the one, where you unfold it and it has a shiny surface that you put behind your rear view mirror and on your dashboard.
Ideally, it would be nice to have a thin film solar panel on the roof of my car that can power the car's internal blower without draining the battery. This would solve the problem of having to remember to put this little fan in the window along with the rubber 'weather stripping.'
I recommend this if you can't park in the shade. Be warned too that if it stars raining heavily, even with the rubber strip in your window, you can get some water in your car.", "label": 1}

But it is heavy at the head \u2013 like quite a bit. It is fine if you are doing a straight over head/shoulders reach back as the weight will help you reach your back. But in trying to come from the sides or the lower back upwards for all the parts of the back totally \u2013 your wrist will REALLLY feel the weight \u2013 especially coming in from the sides. So certain angles are uncomfortable. Plus - the angle of the handle and/or the head - does not allow it to fully rest on your back - only maybe half the brush makes contact... The silicone ones are the worst at making contact due to the angle - the two brushes work better there.
You get 5 different brush heads. The three silicone ones attach to their own plastic disks which then attach to the machine. The heads sort of lay on top of the disk and do not really attach that securely. They seem to stay on fine while using but when trying to place the head the silicone cover comes off VERY easy where you still need to remove the plastic disk. As for the actual bristled ones - one is super soft \u2013 like a make-up brush \u2013 and the other is super firm \u2013 feel like I am cleaning my car a bit. The firm one I can not imagine using all over or for very long as I am pretty sure it is taking skin off (hopefully only dead skin) very easily \u2013 even on my legs it felt a bit uncomfortable. The soft one seems super soft and doesn\u2019t really scrub at all \u2013 just kind of lathers you up \u2013 almost like being tickled by feathers. I do wish that there was another one or two brushes that feel between the super soft and super firm \u2013 as that would be nicer.
It is also tricky getting the entire head off of the handle \u2013 it doesn\u2019t twist or unscrew \u2013 but rather \u201cpops\u201d off. It felt like I was going to break it with the force I had to use \u2013 but it did come out. Once in the hand, though \u2013 it is not very easy to hold easily \u2013 it is large and there is only a small lip that helps you keep a grip. Not the best thing to use without the handle. Also \u2013 it is very heavy. I think I will leave it attached to the handle always.

This definitely fits the bill across the board.
First it comes in a small box - just large enough for the bucket. But the mop is also inside the bucket. Genius!
Now when I unpacked it I was like will this mop be sturdy enough as it comes in pieces you screw together. But YES - it totally is - and I was surprised! It was sturdy and stable and yet maneuvered very, very well as it swivels beautifully. In fact, even though my older mop is smaller - this one was much better for getting behind the toilet - again because it swivels and moves so well. It did a great job. The parts of the handle never came apart - until I took them apart (which was also easy). It is also much longer than my old mop which, for me as a tall woman, makes life sooooo much easier! In fact at the end of mopping my bathroom I was able to stand outside the door and finish up and was actually able to stretch and reach almost the entire bathroom from the doorway - I was impressed. It was very easy to use. I was even able to really scrub with it and it was still very sturdy.
The best part is the bucket. It is super tiny yet super functional. It is also much better than using my bathroom sink - as now I can properly dispose of dirty water right down the toilet. Plus it does not take that much water to fill that part of the bucket - again the engineering is super helpful and thoughtful and conserving. The mop definitely got up the dirt and I was able to rinse it well and then run it through the dry side a few times where it really did get rid of most of the water - you could see it literally pour off the mop with the little attached squeegee. Then I just left it standing against a wall and by that night it was completely dry! (Unlike my old mop which took like days to completely dry!)
Lastly - when you are done with it - you just unscrew the handle and put it all right back in the tiny bucket. Super easy to put on a shelf, in a closet, or in a cupboard. REALLY space saving! My pic shows the size next to a bottle of champagne - really small! I am impressed with he size, engineering, durability, and ease of use. Great product! Totally recommend!

It did NOT taste bad at all. It's actually tastes like chocolate! and mixes so well the Berries flavor that I choose. I am so glad I added this and took the chance. It's hard to drink something, especially if it tastes bad, and something that does cost a bit much, only to gag on it. Despite the health benefits. But I put a scoop of the Berry flavored Green's First and then a little more than a scoop of the Greens' First (GF) Dutch Chocolate and shake it up with water. Just like you normally use Green's First. Did you catch that? I use more of the Chocolate flavored Boost than the Berries scoop!! That's how good it tastes. I'm not and never have been a fan of Vanilla anything, so I have not tried it. I'm sure it probably tastes just as good for those of you that prefer vanilla flavors. When you combine the GF original ( green container) or the GF Berry ( red container) with this Boost powder supplement, it's called a "wellness shake". Since my Dr. was the one who wanted me to start using GF, I made him a shake too and he also liked it. I am trying to also lose weight. This GF Boost contains like everything ( too much for me to fit here, read the container on the listings), so I am using it for the benefits of both GF products and I drink it as a meal supplement. I just know it's good for you, and I do not care for the Original flavor ( green container). It's drinkable, it's a very light mint flavor to me. So whichever GF you use, the Dutch Chocolate or Vanilla will mix with well. Thank you Green's First for making it taste really good!!! You surprised me, and I couldn't be happier. All I could think when I reading all the healthy things in the Boost was....there is no way this can taste like chocolate. But you did it, and did it very well!! I have no complaints!! I wish it didn't cost quite so much, but I understand because it is so healthy and good for you. Our bodies are worth it!! To anyone considering the Boost products?? I highly recommend them! Especially the Dutch Chocolate!!! Thanks! Hope you try it!!", "label": 1}

I was actually quite surprised that this worked as well as it did. My hair is wavy, (texture 2B) but not in a pretty way, it mostly looks tangled and messy and is resistant to styling. I control my frizz by using co-wash method and always air dry my hair.
My initial impressions were - this brush glides through my hair very well, doesn't pull or burn or make weird crimps like a regular iron does. I was able to get all the way to my scalp without burning, which was really nice. My hair doesn't look as flat as it usually does with my regular straightener. I think this was much faster than my regular iron too. I just brushed my hair and it was smooth. It was a comfortable experience for me.
My secondary impressions - I woke up to fairly straight hair with no frizz. I heated the brush up and ran it through my problem waves (namely the exact center back of my head). I was done in minutes and ready to go.
I couldn't figure out how to switch from Celsius to Fahrenheit, but this has a wide variety of temperatures for all textures of hair. I also wish the storage bag was heat resistant so it could be put away before it was cooled down. The design of the "bristles" could be better so it gripped the hair a bit better and straightening could be accomplished with just one pass. I can also see that the control buttons are not in an ideal spot and might be accidentally turned off or turned up.
My final verdict - the amazon price is good for this brush. The quality is excellent and it's easy to use. It's not perfect, but does the job I needed it to do.
Photos - I stopped midway and took pictures with half my hair done -- the straightened side is a good 2-3 inches longer than the wavy side and yet it still has some body and lift, which I love.
UPDATE EDIT... I've used this straightener every day since I got it and I've changed my mind about the buttons on the handle. It's almost impossible to accidentally shut it off or change the heat setting. It's great for daily touch ups and much faster than my regular straightener and has become part of my morning routine.

PACKAGING: Excellent. It came quickly (just a few days) and was in a box which was the correct size for this product. The "cupcakes" were individually wrapped in a plastic sleeve, tied at the top with a round card which stated the "flavor" of the cupcake. The three cupcakes were then put into a thick plastic box and surrounded by pink raffia. This box was wrapped with bubble wrap and inserted into the cardboard box.
FIRST IMPRESSION OF PRODUCT: Honestly, the first impression was the smell. It was pretty overwhelming. Very "perfumey" smelling. After I looked at it, I had to close the box because I was afraid the smell would give me a headache. It was in the box for about two-three weeks, and when I opened it back up to use it, the smell was still pretty strong. Each cupcake was intended to have a different scent, but I couldn't detect a big difference, except the lavender smelled a little different.
THE LOOK: Awesome! These are adorable, and look like you could eat them! They look even better than the picture. Very colorful and detailed.
USING THE PRODUCT: I dropped the Strawberry one into the bath and had fun watching it fizzle. It turned the water a light pinkish color, and it dissolved about 99%. There was a little residual pink and white on the top of the water. The pink left a little bit of a ring in the bathtub, but it easily rinsed off with my shower head sprayer.
The smell was less overwhelming once the cupcake dissolved in the water. It seemed to leave a gentle scent on my skin--not necessarily the strawberry scent, just a gentle perfume.
The "icing" dissolved about 45% right away. To be honest, I forgot it was supposed to be exfoliating. I did pick up the small chunks and squeeze them, and I can see that it could work as an exfoliate. I would suggest not letting it dissolve with the fizzy part to get the most use out of it.
The star and polka dot "sprinkles" did not really dissolve, but acted like wet soap when I squeezed them.
OVERALL: I was concerned that, because of the strong perfume smell, this product might irritate my body. It did NOT. It did not make soap suds or anything like that, either. The product was really well made and would be perfect for a gift for someone. If I had not been overwhelmed by the smell, I would have given this product five stars.", "label": 1}

No matter how hot it is, I wear long sleeves and long pants on these lovely, relaxing walks because we're 1 block from a small lake (bayou-fed mosquito heaven), and tthe BATS that live in the old-growth oaks swoop down at me and the halo of mosquitoes that circle my head, my legs, my feet. That's right, swooping bats. Mosquito halos. West Nile Virus, here we come.
I like to sit out in our backyard for a while in the daytime on a bench beneath our weeping willow. I get my Vitamin D, my dogs get some exercise running around trying to make all the dogs in the neighborhood crazy by starting a chain letter of barking. But my backyard is also near that bayou and, although there are no bats in the daytime, there are mosquitoes 10 out of 12 months each year. The really deadly tiny ones think it's a game to bite me THROUGH MY CLOTHES. West Nile Virus, here we come. I won't use sprays because aerosol mist chokes me, and non-aerosol sprays have to be smoothed on by hand. Thus one quick wipe at an itchy eye and I'm blinded from the pain.
My dear departed sister sold Avon, so I was familiar with the company line but always believed that DEET was my only solution. I tried other, more "natural" products (candles, wristbands, salves with herbs that supposedly stink to mosquitos). They stink to me, too. I usually use Sawyer's lotion and then wash the palm sides of my hands. It works great if I'm going out for several hours, but I prefer not to over-expose to DEET if possible.
So this year, I thought I'd listen to my sis and give Avon a try for outings lasting less than two hours. All of my outings between late March and early January last less that two hours. Big surprise. SKIN-SO-SOFT WORKS AND IT SMELLS GOOD. No zooming bats whirring by my ears (although the mosquitoes still halo my smallest Yorkie, but her hair is thicker than a black bear's).
So, if you hate to slather in chemicals and don't plan on being out all day or all night, give this a try. You'll be very pleasantly surprised and smell pretty good, too.", "label": 1}

Said it was a life saver. I was doubtful it would help but I've had lots of hip pain throughout this 3rd pregnancy and I've never worn a maternity support belt before - didn't feel I needed it and I work as an Esthetician so was on my feet working on clients til month 9 for preg 1 & 2. Out of desperation I started wearing this cradle in month 8 and it has helped. When I was smaller I didn't feel it was as helpful but maybe that's b/c I ordered a size Med and s/h gotten size Small.
Key points:
1. Yes it's ugly and the front straps will show under clothes unless you tuck them out of the way under your nursing bra hooks(good tip). If you are in pain you won't care.
2. You could prob order a size down like others rec - I didn't thinking at pre preg size 8/10 (155 lbs), I usually gain at least 30+ lbs during pregnancy and would need the extra length. Right now at 32 weeks I wear it on the middle hooks (there are 3 sets). Where I wish there was more adjustment is the flexy material under your breasts - I guess in this respect bigger size is ok. After a long day it feels tight here and you can't let it out.
3. Wish it had more sets of hooks around waist so you can adjust to shorter length during early months but suppose you could sew on your own. Also wish it wasn't white.
4. I wear this over my bra and not over a tank top and don't think it scratches all that much. Granted during the summer in LA heat, I opted not to wear this b/c I was smaller and not in as much pain and it was too hot to wear with clothes. I also like this instead of the more traditional support belts b/c it's not made of neoprene or similar material which I found bulky and really hot under my clothes. When you're preggo you're already hot.
5. I bought the prenatal mini cradle to try and that was stupid - just a big strip of elastic which you could make. Here w/ the prenatal cradle it's the whole contraption which makes more sense for the $$.
I'd give it 5 stars if it had the above adjustments. I'd have been more inclined to wear in 2nd trimester if so and maybe that could've been a good preventive for aches and pains.", "label": 1}

I'm relatively new to the vibrating silicone scrubber type brushes (the Conair is one), and I was skeptical, but I'm sold. No nasty bristles to trap makeup or which will wear out in a few months. The silicone scrubbers clean amazingly well, and this one is no exception. The thing is, you have to be aware of what you've got on your face and HOW to remove it.
You're not removing heavy foundation or sunscreen with this and a mild face wash or micellar water followed by a wash with this, nor should you be relying on that method. You're not using the brute force method employed by a traditional scrub brush with bristles.
These type brushes work best with the double-cleanse method. Either a makeup remover that will dissolve your makeup and foundation followed by a face wash used with this, or the oil cleansing method, where you take the day off by emulsifying what's on your face with a cleansing oil and water then a face wash with this.
Seem like more work? Well it's kinder to your skin, ACTUALLY removes the gunk, and outlook keep brushes like this clean forever. I have oily, acne-prone skin, and my pores can get nasty, but using this double cleanse method and this brush has them clean and empty! If you're dry, employ the oil cleanse method.
Using this with a very emollient face wash is going to gunk up the brush like it would gunk up a washcloth. Don't even think of using Noxzema. That stuff is best used in the trash bin.
This maneuvered well around my nose, and I do not have a cute little flat nose, so I've got some serious corners to get into. I \"rinse\" my face using disposable face sponges, which is faster than just using hands and also helps drop the bubbles off.
The \"blue\" is thankfully really more of a purple violet. Lovely color. Three vibrating speeds plus an extra pulsing function that I don't really use. Love the heating function. I use it on the nose and chin to dissolve sebum plugs and on my jaw to relax my TMJ. After I've cleaned, I use the cold function on my nose and cheeks to close the pores.

Just remember to peel the sticker off the soap refill before you try to snap it into place.

TwinLab is one of my favorite supplement brands; they're renowned for their high quality & purity. This Super Rich Yeast has some added ingredients to make it more easily digestible (digestive enzymes papain and bromelain) and added minerals like selenium, chromium, calcium, zinc, and potassium. I MUCH prefer this to standard/typical Brewer's Yeast. I take mine \"straight\" (just dissolved in about 2 ounces of water). I drink it quickly and then follow with at least 6 ounces of water. I cannot say I like the taste of any Brewer's Yeast, but I can tolerate this one & the payoff in energy and mental focus is well worth the 10 seconds of \"ick\" I usually experience when I take it. This might taste just fine disguised as an addition to a morning smoothie.
This does contain added whey, but no added preservatives, fructose, or honey. Serving size is 2 tablespoons (50 calories). It does contain iron (I do believe all Brewer's Yeast does). 1 serving provides 10 mg (55% RDA) of iron.

UPDATE 7/13/14: Just a note of caution: consuming large amounts of Brewers Yeast has the potential to raise Uric Acid levels in the blood, which MIGHT cause gout to flare or joint pain. Just an issue worthy of note for those who need it; this is easily diagnosed with a simple blood test and will not usually be a problem for most healthy people. The added minerals in TwinLab's formulation, I believe, helps minimize this risk substantially AND makes this a good source of trace nutrients.", "label": 1}

Have been sleeping with one of these plugged right next to me since August. I can breathe highly fresh disinfected air. You really can feel the difference!
I also purchased one of the large Guardian air purifier round tanks to place at my new apartment. People have commented on the freshness and air quality in the apartment even though I have smoked inside the apartment, which I never did before, but I moved to a cold state.
Neither of the air purifiers make much noise, and the tank has a silent mode, which makes it even quieter.
I just bought a new pair of these. I noticed there's a new version which is a 7 inch rectangular plug in. In looking at reviews and customer pictures, I decided to stick with this model, because it does not block the second outlet, like the new version seems to do, plus the plug rotates, so it can fit better, if needed.
The blue light makes a great soothing nightlight, and I don't like nighlights, so this is a compliment! First time I don't mind having a nightlight, specially right next to me. :)
I bought these two extra ones to replace the one I had been using since August, as I noticed, it was getting dusty vents. Cleaned the first one and plugged it in the kitchen, and will probably put the new third one in the bathroom, close to the living room windows or any other area inside the apartment, that may not have the best ventilation and air circulation..
This model is for small places. Hmmm...should check if there's an outlet in the walk-in closet.
By the way, I used the first one for 6 consecutive months 24/7, and other than a little cleaning of the vents with a microfiber dry towel, it is still going. I noticed many questions about how long does the light last, before needing replacement. Manufacturer says 6 - 8 months depending on usage. I can vouch that claim.
The replacement bulbs are available at Amazon at a very reasonable price. I have not purchased one yet. \u00cc figured I wait to see how all three of them perform over the next several months.

My desk chair at home is in great shape, but the seat cushion has lost its push, so I feel like I'm sitting directly on the base plate below. After a while, it is painful to sit. I had tried putting old pillows underneath, but had to constantly fluff them and/or re-position them.
The first time you sit on this WonderGel Extreme, you will feel what makes these WonderGel cushions unique. As you sit, the gel cells start to buckle underneath you, and you fit into a nice cradled pocket. I like that it is durable, cleanable, and has a nice cushion effect. I also like to support US manufacturing whenever possible, so it was a nice bonus to learn that WonderGel is made in the USA.
However, it is not quite perfect. I basically had to relearn how to sit. If you have the cushion pushed all the way to the back of the chair, and try to sit all the way back, you will find a \"hard\" lump of bunched gel at the back. So, I actually \"aim\" for the center of the cushion (the cushion still pushed all the way back), so I'm able to \"float\" in the pocket in the middle. I find that my back still comfortably finds the back of the chair, with no resulting lump or awkward posture resulting. In short, don't slide yourself down the back of the chair, but aim your tush to the center of the WonderGel cushion.
Having learned that approach, I am satisfied with the cushion, and no longer feel any pain from sitting in my chair.
Edit 05/01/2014
I carefully removed the carry handle for a few reasons:
1) I am not toting this around; it stays on my desk chair at home.
2) When I have the cushion positioned with the handle to the back of the chair, it contributes to the \"lump\" effect I mentioned above in my review.
3) When I turn the cushion around so the handle faces forward, its hard \"sharp\" corners create discomfort under my legs.
Now, with the handle removed, I find the overall comfort of the WonderGel cushion to be notably improved. I am much more satisfied now.", "label": 1}

With so many testosterone supplements on the market I picked this one to give it a shot. First off I\u2019m 56 years old I have always been active I\u2019ve worked out hard for over 40 years but recently in the last few years I\u2019ve felt I have \u201cchanged \u201c what I mean is like as in other men over 50 you start losing more levels of testosterone and your morning wake up call isn\u2019t rising with you and your energy levels are diminishing along with your intense workouts. I want to go this route because of the price of testosterone therapy is ridiculously high and unfortunately my insurance doesn\u2019t help with that so I\u2019m hoping to find an alternative or a fountain of youth so to speak in a supplement. So I started this week on this supplement booster by VitPro, this bottle has 180 capsules to me are easy to swallow and you take 3 a day so every week for the next 2 months I will update on my experience just so I can give VitPro a very honest review and share my thoughts with you. I will adjust the star rating up or down depending on how this product works.
Update: week number 1 complete no effects as of yet but it\u2019s not fair to judge I feel it needs to be in your system for at least 4-6 weeks but I will keep up with weekly updates.
Update: week number 2 complete still no effects but I haven\u2019t given up it\u2019s still to early I will update next week.
Update: week number 3 still no change but I still haven\u2019t gave up hope still to early especially being 56 I might need more time.
Update: week number 4, nothing I thought maybe something might change but not as of yet and I haven\u2019t changed or added anything else to my lifestyle. Starting to lose confidence so this drops another star.
Update: week number 5. No change 3 more weeks to go hopefully something but nothing as of yet.
Update: weeks 6 and 7. Still nothing 1 week left to go.
Last update: even though this product didn\u2019t work for me doesn\u2019t mean it won\u2019t for you the positive about this one that sets apart from the others is they give you plenty of time to get it in your system it\u2019s not just going to work over night they give you a 2 month supply unfortunately it did nothing at least for what I wanted I really wanted to recommend this but I can\u2019t.

Propylene Glycol (PG) is a solvent used to deliver other chemicals into the skin in topical products, it is also found in anti-freeze. Although PG is considered safe, PG can accumulate and cause lactic acidosis, central nervous system depression, coma, hypoglycemia, seizures, and hemolysis. Patients at risk for toxicity include infants, patients with renal insufficiency, patients with epilepsy, or burn patients who receive extensive dermal applications of PG. PG toxicity can occur at dosing of lorazepam as low as 4 to 6 mg per hour in adults. The clinical diagnosis of PG intoxication may be difficult since many institutions do not measure PG levels. However, the osmolar gap, anion gap, and lactate are commonly elevated in PG intoxication.
Also high on the list of ingredients are parabens. Parabens are used as preservatives (to prevent growth of bacteria and fungus).
"Parabens are a group of synthetic compounds commonly added to cosmetics and body products because they prevent the growth of fungus and bacteria. They are dangerous because, like so many ingredients in this list, they disrupt hormone functions, potentially leading to increased risk of breast cancer and reproductive toxicity. Five common types of parabens have been banned in the EU, and the FDA is under pressure to ban them in the U.S." [Amy Myers]
Following parabens is "Triethanolamine". Triethanolamine in huge doses causes liver cancer in mice. Also in huge doses it causes a decrease in betaine and choline.
The container is eight ounces at 100,000 IU of retinol per ounce for a total of 800,000 IUs of vitamin A per container. You can use these numbers to calculate your daily dose based on how rapidly you use this product. To be safe you probably should not use more per day than would result in using this up over a span of about two years. Note: there is more of all of the above mentioned toxins than there is vitamin A in this product.
I don't care for the odor of this cream.
Depending on your approach to living in a "chemical soup" you may or may not wish to apply this to your skin on a daily basis. In small doses, most people should never develop a problem. For those aiming for a long and healthy life, this might not be the product for you.", "label": 0}

Bottom line is that the toothbrush works and it works better than manual brushing.
Over the years I've used a number of electric tooth brushes. This is the first \"sonic\" brush I've used and for the most part I'm pretty satisfied with it. After using it for the better part of two weeks I can say that for the price it has worked out nicely. It feels well made and solid. The case it comes in appears to be sturdy enough to survive being tossed into a travel bag. There are enough settings to accommodate everything from gentle to more aggressive brushing and the two minute timer with stops every 30 seconds is a nice touch.
It should be noted that the product ships with two brush heads. The photo seems to indicate that there is one attached to the body of the brush with two spares. That is not the case. That's not a big issue, but it should be noted for those who shop by photo and not by description. A more serious issue is that the charging base doesn't provide a solid support for the body of the unit. While the handle drops into the base easily there is nothing to hold it there. No clip. No magnet. No friction. The end result is that there is nothing to keep a slight nudge from topping the handle out of the base. You're not going to want to leave this charging anywhere it can be bumped and sent crashing to the floor. Also, the cable that comes with the unit has to be connected to a USB port. No power supply is provided with the brush. You will either use an AC to USB converter or plug it directly into a port on a computer.
The fairly limited directions that come with the product make no mention of how to obtain replacement brushes. Since the suggested life of the brush head is three months you will need to replace the two that come with the kit within six months. Fortunately, there is an email address in the directions and when I wrote to ask about replacements I had an answer in under 24 hours. They are available on Amazon and that was a good thing to find out. It was also nice to discover that there is someone on the other end of the email address and if their general support is as good that's comforting.
All in all, if you're looking for a sonic toothbrush this one is pretty good. I'll update this review down the road if it warrants additional comment.", "label": 1}

I've been using a set of polarized night drivers for some time. They really do cut down on the glare of oncoming headlights and the super bright LED taillights that are in common use today.
For that, these are awesome! The style is a classic aviator, pretty much the granddaddy of all sunglasses. Hard to go wrong there and these are right on the standard for that style.
The build quality is excellent. They have a generously sized lens and overall frame width. My head size is ~23&3/4\" (~60 cm) around, measured just above the ears & eyebrows. I wear a size extra-large hat most of the time, depending on the brand and style. I've got a pretty big noggin, a big face, and I'm generally a pretty big guy. These glasses with their large frame and spring hinges fit my head great, and should fit most people even large headed folks like myself!
For me the really interesting part was the \"photochromic\" aspect of the lenses. I have been wanting to try one of the budget brand photochromic pairs for some time now so I thought I'd give these a shot. Keep in mind, they generally won't darken in a vehicle anyway so that feature is probably somewhat useless on a pair of driving glasses, but still.
If you check out my attached video you'll see that these DO darken under UV light. They don't darken as much or as dramatically as a pair of prescription photochromic lenses, but they do darken. I guess that's a checkmark in their favor. Still, given that they don't darken very much and don't shade very much they would never be a go to pair of glasses for sunny days for me.
I'd describe the total shade level, even after exposure to bright sunlight, as very light.
The polarization is legit. I verified it with a polarization test card, my computer monitor, and some water splashed on the driveway outside. In all tests, there is an obvious polarization effect. There are levels of polarization though and I would describe these as only lightly polarized. Good enough for driving but I'd not like these for a day on the boat (either for total shade level or for level of polarization).
All in all these are a really nice set of NIGHT driving glasses. Other than that I just don't see any value in the photochromic effect on these glasses so I'm knocking off a star for a 4 star total rating. It would be 3 stars but they are really very nicely made glasses and excellent for night driving so I might be generous in this rating.", "label": 1}

Clinical proof of a supplement's benefit from one source can be contradicted by another study, or critically disparaged due to some flaw, bias, or oversight in the research that is claimed. I don't have time to acquire the medical expertise, but have come to rely on a certain rough consensus of experts not directly connected to the supplement industry, using my hit-and-miss method of searching Web MD, online news, etc. Through this method, I've recently eliminated Omega-3 supplements from our diet (while commensurately increasing natural sources where I can, just in case), and I guess I'm a bit on the fence with Glucosamine formulas. My joints are feeling a little better these days, but I've also made a few other good choices in the area of diet or exercise - and got more supportive shoes! -- so there's no attributing that improved joint comfort to one thing or another with any real certainty. (Nor would I want to delay other positive changes in my health regimen for the purpose of "isolating" results.)
Oh, and It also bears mentioning that the studies most often cited for glucosamine indicate that the effectiveness is more pronouncedly noticeable where joint pain suffered is greater in the first place. Not that I equate short-term pain relief with long-term benefit, but as someone thankfully more creaky than actually sidelined by pain, I'm not anticipating dramatic results.
I like and trust Viva labs for the coconut and other gluten/dairy-free flours, etc. from its grocery line, so am happy to try out this product. It's an easy to swallow vegetable capsule that surrounds the Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM, and being particularly intrigued by the claimed benefits to cartilage, tendons and ligaments of MSM - yeah, I've had a few problems there in recent years - this is a formulation that I'm very happy to try for awhile, particularly at the price.
The capsule itself is claimed Halal but those following a Kosher diet should be advise that the Glucosamine is derived from shrimp shells. Not relevant to me specifically, but I appreciate that Viva is meticulous about spelling these things out.

I do not prefer the different flavored Tummydrops that are peppermint flavored. However, The Sweet Lychee Peppermint is the sweetest (and best tasting) peppermint flavored Tummydrop and the Lychee fruit helps to cut the strong peppermint flavor. So if you really like peppermint, then these are very palatable and I advise getting them for morning or car sickness and to help with GI Issues. There is no aftertaste, your teeth don't feel sticky and it does not effect your breath in any negative way. If you want a super strong peppermint flavor that is not so sweet, the Fresh Crushed Peppermint is the right Tummydrop for you. You can't go wrong with Tummydrops being Gluten free, Nut free, Vegan, Organic, Kosher and Non-GMO! Plus the company is so wonderful to work with. I had trouble using their coupon and they emailed me back with-in a few hours and fixed the error. This company wants to make sure you are satisfied and happy. If you don't end up liking them, let them now and they will fix it.
The only pitfall to Tummydrops is they are expensive, so waiting for a coupon or signing up for the company newsletter is the best way to go to get a deal on them. Tummydrops come 33 to a bag and they recommend taking up to 12 a day..that means if you took the max dose you are getting almost 3 days worth and the cost of them starts to add up. They are about 18 in a tin; so the tins that come in 3 packs will last 4 1/2 days if your taking the recommended up to 12 a day but the tins are more expensive than the bags by about $4.
Tummydrops also has Ginger flavored Tummydrops. The Ginger Tummydrops are much, much better in my opinion. The Ginger ones do actually help with GI Issues, help regulate your bowel movements and are delicious to suck on. All the Tummydrops have only 4 ingredients and I can feel the difference in my digestive system when I suck on them throughout the day. I highly recommend the Pineapple Ginger, Sweet Ginger Pear, Double Ginger Peach and Sweet Blackberry Ginger.", "label": 1}

I ended up with the L (large size) of the \"Everyday Narrow\" style and they were a perfect fit for my size 12 ASICS -- amazingly no trimming was required. I overlaid these insoles over the factory insoles and there were a perfect fit so I put the scissors away (typically, some level of trimming would be required).
They provided much improved cushioning in the heal and toe as well as arch support immediately. However, on the first couple of walks, I noticed that my leg muscles were feeling some strain after a long walk. As I continued to wear them, they formed to my feet and the leg pain went away. After a couple of weeks now, I find them very comfortable and am quite happy with how they have adjusted to my feet.
BEWARE OF SIZING:
On the webpage where you pick the size, I selected \"Mens size 11-12.5, Womens size 10-11.5\" and they sent me a size \"L\". Now you will notice that the advertised size range is clearly in error since a Mens 11 is not a Womens 10 -- they should be the other way around. So the L that I was sent were actually \"Mens size 10-11.5, Womens size 11-12.5\". That is why I did not need to cut the insoles to fit in my size 12 ASICS. So when you are picking your size, you need to mentally swap the words \"Men\" and \"Women\" since they have a typo in the selection (unless they read this and fix it as they should). You can see this clearly by looking at the sizing chart which shows an L is Women 11-12.5, Men 10-11.5 (which is correct). I got lucky that I was able to use the smaller L size (10-11.5) vs the XL size (12-13.5) I would have ordered because my shoes are right on the boundary. MAKE SURE YOU USE THE SIZE CHART OR SWAP MEN/WOMEN SIZES WHICH ARE INCORRECTLY LISTED!!!!!
Hopefully, they quickly fix the typo in the sizing info since as it currently is, most people will order the wrong size for either men on women (unless they happen to notice that the men and women size ranges don't make sense and realize the typo).", "label": 1}

WHAT ARE BLITZU KNEE BRACES LIKE?:
Blitzu Knee Braces are seamless sleeves of (polyester?) fabric woven around thin elastic bands, the same as in elastic waistbands. The sleeves come in 4 sizes, 2 knitted designs, and 11 colors. Blitzu Knee Braces are comparatively priced and come in pairs. Blitzu Knee Braces are made in China. They do not contain neoprene.
HOW DO YOU USE BLITZU KNEE BRACES?:
I wear these on my runs and if my knee hurts when I return home, I leave the brace on for 24 hours and then wear it during the day until the pain is gone. Also, if I fall or twist my knee, I put the knee brace on for 24 hours and then wear it during the day until the pain is mostly gone. Usually, the brace stays on for about 5-7 days.
HOW DO YOUR BLITZU KNEE BRACES FIT?:
I followed the size chart on the Amazon website and mine fit perfectly. You slide them up over your knee, and mine stay in place by compression and wavy beads of silicone at the top of the sleeve.
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF BLITZU KNEE BRACES FIT?:
They should stay on your knees without sliding down while applying about the same pressure as an elastic bandage wrap. If they slip or clamp too tight, they may be the wrong size.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT BLITZU KNEE BRACES?:
1) I have an immediate decrease in existing pain within moments of putting on the brace. Then, the pain resolves after 5-7 days with daily use.
2) Mine have been durable \u2014 they lasted months without ravels or loss of stretch.
2) Right now, the price is reasonable and they come as a pair!
WHAT DON\u2019T YOU LIKE ABOUT BLITZU KNEE BRACES?:
When I wear them, they form wrinkles behind my knees. But when I hand wash them in warm water and dry them flat on the bathroom counter, the wrinkles are gone. Official care instructions are under the label.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
I have used compression sleeves off and on since I started having knee trouble at 13 years-of-age and I\u2019m still running. Knee braces help. If you have clinical knee problems, see your M.D.
If my report changes, I\u2019ll let you know by posting an UPDATE on my Amazon Profile.

To begin with, the cuff material is SO THIN, they cannot and WILL NOT hold to your arm in ANY situation, and certainly not in the event you stumble (when you need them MOST, they will FAIL).
Cuff mounts were worn to the Point of Failure within a couple of weeks, and I had to re-drill them out and re-instal 5/16\" stainless steel bolts and locknuts. EVERY corner that could be cut to save production costs was cut, at the cost of SAFETY.
Rubber crutch feet SLIP ON EVERY SURFACE KNOWN TO MANKIND, and could not be more unsafe IF THEY WERE INTENTIONALLY DESIGNED THAT WAY.

The cuff's swivel mounts are safe, secure and will out live you (my oldest pair was new in 1981 and still as good as the day I got them!).
The heavy duty cast handle mount is just as rock-solid.

Pros- scooter is easy to set up. Fantastic little rear shock really nice on bumps and going over air hoses obstacles, nice basket pops off/on easy. zooms straight easy and when you steer too far it really stops/slows down as the tires scrub. This is annoying but I have gone too fast on another brand and i flew off and crashed. So the slow down is like a safety feature. Nice fat grips really helps keep the scooter stable and under control. Rear tire being a single tire is great this way you dont run your leg into it....I have and hurt my foot toes and ankle a lot banging the rear tire/axle nut into it. So this one is nice. No seams knee pad reduces digging into knee. All terrain tire are nice as the cushion the ride. I've had solid tires and they are no fun at all! Good brakes also but 1 tire brake can be weird on low traction situations. Like snow and or ice. Well see what happens in bad weather.
Cons- it's a little front tippy. Balance is a tad scary if lean to far forward. Since the tires have air the whole scooter is a little spongy and jiggly. But this also saves the knee and gives a better overall comfort. Takes getting used to. The knee pad lock isnt working well and it twists and slides down. (I have adjusted it with minimal results) also the tubes that come with it are the wrong stems they should be brass and 90 degree for ease of inflation. The ones on it are really hard to inflate and the little pump included though helpful is hard to work and getting the on the stems between the wheel spokes is no fun at all. Rear brake had to completely reset pad way out of alignment with rim. Also rear rim is in no way true and if you apply brakes you get a jerky slow down. I want to try and use a front wheel to see if it's better to get rid of or at least reduce the jerky operation due to the wheel being out of round. Arrived with scratches on the frames paint. After 30 mins of adjusting and testing. I have now put 25 hours of use on the scooter in 2 days and working very well. 4 stars because of tubes and scrathed paint, jerky brakes, ect.
But overall a solid scooter!!

When, many years ago, I purchased my first Norelco shave it came with a notice that it'd take a week or so for the beard to 'adjust' to the new shaver. I thought then that was likely nonsense -- just a way to stop disappointed buyers from returning the shaver when it shaved less well than the ads had promised.
But now about 10 days into the use of this Norelco type shaver I have found it to be shaving much closerr than it did at first. -Especially on the shave resistant (with all shavers) neck hairs.
Did my beard adjust? Or did the shaver need to somehow break in? Whatever the case this low priced rotatry shaver is now doing an excellent job. Five star excellent!
* * * * *
I've favored electric shavers for most of my now many years. Started with a Norelco rotary, then a Remington foil type, then back to a Norelco. But for the last 9 years I've used a Panasonic.
In truth no one was really that much better than the others. -Or that much worse. All did a pretty good job. All failed for some reason with the lower neck hairs. The rest was just convenience, handling, shape and weight.
The Panasonic was as good as any -- but it had a flaw: The cost of the blades and heads which were supposed to be replaced yearly.
I did that after year one, and then started stretching the time period between replacments because of the cost. About $60.
When the Panasoncs's head and blades just HAD to be replaced I rebelled at the cost, and bought this entire shaver for a small fraction (one fifth!) the price of just those replacement parts for the Pani.
Basically it is a return to those old Norelcos. Same basic experience. Same level of shaving efficiency.
This unit feels good in the hands. It is very quiet. It seems to hold a charge well (and charge quickly)
Its trimmer is better than average. Its snap on cover not very well designed -- not easily attached and not too secure.
And that's basically \"it.\" Nothing great. Nothing particularly wanting. But, especially at the current sale price with a large 'coupon' discount, a truly terrific bargain.
All that remains as a question is its durability. But even if it needed replacement after a few years it is a lot cheaper (and basically just as good) as the Panasonic with its expensive to replace blades.", "label": 1}

But none of that ever happened - there still isn't a single review of this on any beauty blog or YouTube, the couple of articles you can Google aren't actually reviews if you read them, their own ad on YouTube hasn't garnered any comments in three months (this is unheard of), and the TV commercials stopped airing as well because I am guessing they ran out of money. A few reviews did trickle in here on Amazon over that period, and half of those couldn't be less helpful.
I finally decided to bite the bullet and just try out the brush myself.
Well, my experience with the brush really wasn't great (I'd say my true rating is about 1.5 stars). I have 2c/3a half wavy half curly hair, and anyone with curly hair would be able to relate: you know how when you dry brush your curls out you end up with this huge frizzy mane? Well, the effect I got with the Clamp It brush wasn't much better. It did straighten, but it didn't leave the hair smooth or shiny, it was just this big head of straight (and dull) hair. Honestly even when curly my hair is much shinier. It also didn't straighten the ends of my hair for some reason, I still had a little wave going on there. And everything I am describing continued to be the case even after multiple passes.
Also, the big selling point of this brush was that it can straighten large strands of hair at a time. Well, here is the thing: with my hair, at least, if I took a wide strand, it wouldn't go THROUGH the heated comb teeth, it went over ON TOP of them, and that's with the brush fully clamped! In order to get my hair to actually go through the heaters, I'd have to take a very small strand at a time, and that kinda defeats the whole purpose - I mean, the whole reason I even wanted the Clamp It in the first place was because using any other straightening tool is such a pain.

The \"travel\" versions from the big name manufacturers (Water-Pik, Oral B) failed me in a variety of ways. I abandoned them and simply used only dental floss while traveling, while my routine at home is to floss manually and then use my water driven device.
I\u2019ve now used it for both home and travel.
There is a simplicity to using the same micro USB cord(s) I use for virtually everything else, phone, tablet, etc., and it means less to carry, as well. Last week I was at a client site in Washington, DC and I forgot to charge the thing all week. It was still going strong on Thursday, the day I flew home, so now I know it has a battery life that exceeds four days when fully charged.
These guys really have come up with a better mousetrap.
I felt the only real design flaw is a minor one: when I remove the lid, I\u2019d like to be able to place it *under* the water carriage so I don\u2019t lose it. I have not lost it to date, but I just know one of these days it is going to stay behind in a hotel room.
It can also be smaller. Since I travel, I don\u2019t need to leave enough water or mouthwash in the reservoir for more than that day. When I am home, the reservoir holds enough water or mouthwash for almost a week.
Using a micro USB charger is brilliant: Water-Pik batteries wear out in four days, *and* don't hold enough water or mouthwash. Oral B has a huge plug attachment with a converter that weighs more than the flosser itself. Using a common power source, because all of us have micro USB something or another, eliminates both problems and also makes the package lighter when I place it in my bag, Every ounce counts when you are stuffing enough business attire into a suitcase for a four day client visit.
It is really important for me, with receding gums, to take the best care I possibly can in order to avoid the inevitable dental surgery to replace the lost tissue. It sucks. I had the same surgery about ten years ago and couldn\u2019t eat for a week after. They harvest tissue from the roof of your mouth to \u201crefill\u201d your gums, and the spot on the roof of my mouth where they cut out the tissue just plain hurt for a full week afterwards. So I really do floss religiously, because I would like to keep my teeth in my mouth and not have them in a jar when I am old. Well, older than I am now, I guess.
I do still feel the need to floss with dental floss instead of water in the evening. Minimum, before going to sleep.", "label": 1}

I place the device on my cheeks and jaw, my face won't twitch very much anymore. The manual says for best results use every other day. So could it be possible that my muscles are so tight right now that the twitching stopped for a few days? And maybe after about a day or two my muscles will twitch again? Idk. I also hear that you aren't supposed to use a device with this many amps but once every 24 hours or so. Maybe that's why.
Update: it turns out I was right about the device. I started out on high for the first two days so my muscles needed a break. After researching faradic pulse and muscle contraction, I learned thar poor contractions with the device is because to much lactic acid build up, over worked muscles and or not removing all of the dirt and oil from skin. After resting for two days I used the device today and it works like a charm. Guess I should've followed the manual that says use every other day. I used it for almost 40 minutes on both sides of my face so that was my problem. Couldn't get my face to twitch for two days. Also don't use with wet hands because water can get in the device through the cracks. I'm pleased with it as of now, and it's definitely better than nuface. I used nuface for two years. Problem with nuface is it just retrains your muscles to sit in the old position, which is almost like botox, but it does nothing to build muscle tone.
Second update guys. My face is amazing! The muscles in my face sit up high and there's an increase in volume. At some point I became worried that my face might start looking buff lol. But thata not the case, but I recommend only using the device every other day for two to three weeks and then using twice a week or once a week to keep the tone of your muscles just like if you worked out your body. I'm surprised I like this more than nuface! I didn't get an increase in volume with nuface, the only thing I got was my muscles sat up for a few days. With this you get the lift and the increase in muscle volume. But yeah I wouldn't over do it because you might start looking a little muscular in the face lol. Like around the jaw. And on the side of my face near the jaw i can see a noticeable increase in muscle.", "label": 1}

Check all the benefits:
Astaxanthin is a reddish pigment that belongs to a group of chemicals called carotenoids. It occurs naturally in certain algae and causes the pink or red color in salmon, trout, lobster, shrimp, and other seafood.
Astaxanthin is used for treating Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, \u201cbrain attack\u201d (stroke), high cholesterol, and an eye condition called age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It is also used for preventing cancer.
Astaxanthin is applied directly to the skin for protection against sunburn.
Because of its antioxidant properties, there has been a lot of research on how astaxanthin might help to treat various cancers. One study found short- and long-term benefits for the treatment of breast cancer, including reduced growth of breast cancer cells.
The high cost of purified astaxanthin has limited its use in further studies and cancer treatments.
There has been a lot of study on how astaxanthin can affect endurance, as well as fatigue levels after exercise. Studies on mice show that it can boost the body's use of fatty acids, which helps endurance, and prevent muscle and skeletal damage.
So far, however, evidence for its effects on human exercise is still lacking. One study using human subjects found no exercise benefits from astaxanthin supplements in relation to muscle injury.
Researchers are also looking into claims that astaxanthin can benefit heart health. A 2006 study examined astaxanthin's effects on rats with hypertension (high blood pressure), and results indicated that it may help to improve elastin levels and arterial wall thickness.
Other claims include the notion that astaxanthin can prevent heart disease and help lower cholesterol, but there isn\u2019t sufficient evidence to support these uses yet.
Astaxanthin may also have a future in the treatment of joint pain, including conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, which affects nearly one in every five Americans, and carpal tunnel syndrome. However, results so far have been mixed.
Some studies show that astaxanthin may be able to reduce inflammation and pain symptoms related to arthritis. However, a study on the relationship between astaxanthin and carpal tunnel syndrome found no evidence to support the claim.
In a 2005 study, astaxanthin showed positive results for male fertility. Over the course of three months, the double-blind study examined 30 different men who were previously suffering from infertility.
The researchers saw improvements in sperm parameters, like count and motility, and improved fertility in the group who received a strong dosage of astaxanthin. As this was a relatively small-scale study, more evidence and research is needed to support this claim.

The other liquid ones worked good, but we were not sure if they were strong enough or worth the weight to carry. So far this one seems more potent for the both of us & helps both of us more for than the liquid versions.
We purchased this vitamin supplement to help us make it through hikes, without getting dehydrated & to replenish essential electrolytes to keep our energy up. When this supplement arrived, we always check to see if the pills are sealed tight, and these were sealed very well...The pills come 3 to a pack & each one was sealed tight; each packet also has a pull tab to open easily, which none were ripped.
The pills are light brown with darker speckles in color and are an average medium size for most vitamin supplements. When the pills arrived we opened them and they had a light vitamin smell, which we thought was good, since it might be full of the needed nutrients & not just filler. The packet says to take 1 tablet with 8 oz of water...wait 20 minutes to take another...and no more than 12 per day.
Our family doctor recommended we start taking some type of hydration replacement (when we take long hikes) because my wife already had some problems with becoming dehydrated since we moved west. We tried these out for 3 days (one day lifting, one day running & the last day hiking) & for us it seems we only needed one pill each with 12 oz of water. Which was more than enough for both of us & kept us hydrated for hours with no thirst or dry lips. The only time we might take extra pills, is if it is very hot out or if we are taking a full day or very long hike.
Pros:
Easy to take, medium size pill
Not bitter & no bad aftertaste
Helps to revive us & keep us hydrated
& They seem to work quickly
Cons:
Has a few other ingredients, that are not needed...this is a major complaint we have with many different supplements.
Overall we love this re-hydrating vitamin supplement and would recommend these to everyone looking for help with staying hydrated during exercise or outdoor activities when you lose electrolytes faster or if you just need a boost after a night out drinking (which our friend says they work great on as well).

This is a cute marketing ploy, but all that this is, and unabashedly so there is no attempt at misleading you, is regular cornstarch. The only thing different between this and Argo cornstarch ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00T70RNQ8 ) which is available here and in every grocery store in the country, is that this costs $15 for 1.5 oz and the Argo (or any similar cornstarch off the grocery shelf) would cost $0.30 per 1.5 oz.
It's OK to make a profit, it's OK to say that your product is differentiated (it's in a plastic sprinkle bottle, not a box or jar) and it's OK to put out some exotic product as a novelty item and charge 3x,4x,5x maybe even 10x as much as it's worth, but this is 50x as much as it should cost. Imagine the outrage if Pharma Bro did that with his medicines.
And, is it as good as a regular box off of the grocery shelf, \"thicken your egg drop soup\", cornstarch? No, it might be worse, and here's why. As you can see in the attached pictures, it arrived slightly open, enough to let the power out and anything else into the container. This is a product that you want to be as sterile as possible. This company is obviously buying the cornstarch from somewhere else (Argo?) and re-packing it into 1.5 oz bottles. I have no idea what their sanitation control is, but I know that their QC is lacking based on the bottle I received.
Do you want to take a chance on something that will go into your body, or your body into it, that is not bacteriological pure? I don't.
My background is in hydrocolloids (fancy word for things like cornstarch) and you will find if you do some research that cornstarch is not just cornstarch. It can be modified (which this is not, it would need to be declared on the label) and if it's not modified, it can be specially ground into various sizes for various purposes. This is none of those, there's nothing special about this, it's exactly what you'd find in a box off of the grocery shelf or if you bought basic cornstarch for cooking from Amazon.
Now that you know that it's cornstarch, if you want to apply regular cornstarch to your toys, go ahead. If you're worried about sanitation and contamination (remember, the other cornstarches are food grade) take the cornstarch, and throw it (dry) in a microwave for a bit, and it'll be more sanitary than what you're paying $160 per lb for from this company.", "label": 0}

Nothing was really doing much to help. He HATES his feet being touched. They are super ticklish, he thinks its weird, and wants no one near them. I rarely ever see him with socks off. So me giving him a foot massage was out of the question, even though I have tried many times. I bought this without him knowing. Set it up by his chair and gave him the 'you better at least TRY IT' stink eye wife look. He did, and now loves it, and uses it twice a day. He does have extra wide feet (12 EE), but his feet still fit fine in the machine;of course they still stick out of the machine length wise, so do mine a bit. The machine, was surprisingly big & heavy. I guess I didnt expect it, because I am used to the cheap ones that dont do much for your feet. The only draw back is the remote works horribly; maybe it needs new batteries(it did come w. 'new' ones, where you pull out the plastic tab thing to activate it)? We havent tried to put new ones in yet.
There are many settings on the machine, the manual tells you what setting to use for your feel and for what corresponding body part it could also help. For example: Program #3- Focus on intestinal ,liver,stomach etc, Program #4 Focus on legs reproductive & urinary systems.....It also comes with diagrams of the foot which diff. points you can move the massager onto, such as the heel for menstruation & infertility. There is A LOT of info on reflexology points to help not only your feet but weight,detox,fatigue,blood pressure, constipation,migraines,cervical acid,menopause,dysmenorrhea,.So there a lot of info in the book, yet its laid out simply so you dont get bored reading it. Its also IMPORTANT to read the guide. There is a time limit for the massage, dont go over it, also about eating food before or after, as well as water directions. My husband dosent like to read or his feet touched. Yet there he was in the machine & really into the fun facts the pamphlet had to offer! I was so stifling my giggling in amazement! And yes it will hurt a bit at first especially if your feet are sore & in pain, but its a 'good' hurt like when you get a massage , getting the kinks worked out, if that makes sense.", "label": 1}

I will preface this review by saying that I have tried many oils (coconut, jojoba, argan, etc.), heavy creams, wearing socks to bed, using those cheese grater/buffer tools for pedicures, drinking more water, and even the peeling foot masks. They have all helped, but only slightly. If you are reading this review, you may understand the pain of cracking heels and the embarrassment of how it looks. To make it worse, I garden a lot, so those cracks get dirty as well, and no amount of washing or soaking seems to diminish this--it only further worsens how dry they are.
When I received this PediBunny callus remover, I did not have high hopes, but I was optimistic that it would accomplish *some* improvement. I am pleased that it comes with 3 rollers (one already attached and 2 extras). It also comes with a cleaning brush (the removed skin can gunk it up), a cover for the roller on the unit, and a charging cord. The device is RoHS compliant, which means I\u2019m not fearful it will shock me or burn up while charging. The PediBunny has a light to indicate when it is charging, and the charge lasts plenty long enough to work on my feet.
I ordered two different brands of rechargeable callus removers within a couple days of one another. The rollers on this one feel a bit rougher, so at first I was afraid it might actually hurt. It does not. The abrasiveness works well to remove callused skin, but the motor is not quite as powerful as the other brand. At times, it momentarily drags, but then quickly regains its speed. I am careful to not overwork one area because I have done that in the past and it makes my skin quite sore the next day. So, this device works best just fine when I run it over a small area at a time, lifting every couple seconds and moving on.
I love that this callus remover is rechargeable. I tend to not get around to buying batteries very often and I don\u2019t like to be limited by wired power devices. I see immediate results after using this product, but it will take ongoing use to get my feet baby soft, which is expected (and I continue to use oils and creams and socks). No miracle, but definitely good results!
I purchased this callus remover at a discount in exchange for my honest review. I did not receive any other compensation, and I am not obligated to write a favorable review. I have used this product myself, and all words in this review are my own.", "label": 1}

This one seems to fill the bill nicely. The water pressure for the flosser is almost as strong as my Waterpic plug-in unit. The toothbrush is surprisingly good. It is very soft and does a very good job of cleaning the teeth. It does not brush as aggressively as my Oral B, yet the soft bristles combined with the high rate of vibration actually makes my teeth feel cleaner!
This is fairly easy to use. For flossing, you attach the water hose to the handle, attach the flosser tip to the handle and you're good to go. The tank holds enough water for over 2 minutes of flossing. When you are done, you empty the tank, detach the water hose and flosser tip, then attach the toothbrush tip. Both the flosser and the toothbrush have 3 speeds and 2 different time intervals. The time interval settings are interesting. Most electric dental appliances have a 2 minute timer. But this one let you choose between 1 minute and 2 1/2 minute intervals.
For travel, battery power frees you from having to deal with a cord to plug in. And the addition of a separate water hose means you do not need to take the entire unit with you - any cup or glass that holds water will do.
I should mention that this unit is sold under two different brand names on Amazon. The other brand only comes with 1 toothbrush and 1 flosser tip, but does include a small bag for travel. I had originally ordered the other brand. What I learned was that, in spite of the instructions, do not remove the water tank for filling and emptying. I did that and the water valve in the tank fell apart. This could have been a flaw in the manufacture of the unit I received, but decided to play it safe and keep the tank attached at all times. Because the unit is so light and compact, filling and emptying the tank while attached is very easy.
On a final note, I have not had this long enough to comment on its battery life. I'll update this review at a later date when I get some experience with the battery life. But overall, I believe this is a good purchase if you want the compactness of a flosser/toothbrush in one unit, and want the portability the battery power and separate water hose provides.", "label": 1}

It's one of those products that you really didn't think you needed until you finally try it.
The heating blanket seems to be extremely well constructed. It's made of very soft fabric -- particularly in the foot pocket which contains fleece for extra comfort. The bottom of the blanket is lined with gripped padding to keep it in place while in use.
The included wired controller provides an ample amount of cord leeway for easy placement. There are 6 different heating levels that the blanket can be set for along with preset timers for auto shut-off.
The manufacturer claims that the Double-sided heating pad is controlled separately. As far as I can see, this is not the case. The supplied controller does not indicate separate heating functions nor does the included instructions. Is this something you should be concerned about? Well, this product is considerably more expensive than similar alternatives and if doesn't perform as described, you shouldn't be paying more for it.
Personally, my only intent of use is to insert my feet into the pocket of the blanket. I currently have the blanket turned all the way up (level 6), and it seems rather perfect without being too hot. I have found that my feet get so wonderfully warm that when I finally remove them in a 72-degree room, it suddenly feels cold.
The inside of the blanket is very roomy -- almost too much so. While it's nice to be able to have the freedom to move your feet around while inside, it just seems a bit too large for its purpose.
It seems like this should be very easy to clean. You unzip and remove the heating pad from the fabric before throwing it into the washer. The instructions claim that there are storage straps to hold everything together when not in use -- but yet another feature that is not actually included with this product.
Bottom line: This foot warmer is considerably more expensive than others I have seen on Amazon. The fact that it is \"Double-Sided\" may be a perk for some. I don't think this gets hot enough across the top to work as a normal heating blanket for injuries. While the manufacturer claims separate heating controls, it certainly isn't related to the included controller. The so-called storage straps mentioned in the instructions aren't to be found anywhere.
If you do opt to pay more for this, I think you are getting an exceptionally well-built blanket that should last you a long time. However, I would also consider cheaper options.", "label": 1}

I get leg cramps while sleeping and I've tried to use a stick massager to increase circulation, but a stick massager is awkward to use on my calves. I have to use both hands & its contact point is limited to about 3 inches at a time with a stick massager on the smaller body areas.
The SPJ Slimming Roller . . . has 7 inches of flexible contact. The rollers wrap around my calf in every direction I push it in. The handle design makes it easy to maneuver and apply pressure. The nodules are hard plastic, but they are well rounded at the tips so they are intrusive and gentle at the same time. It is as pictured, but I don't find the picture to scale which is good because it looks too large relative to the hand and the body parts in the Amazon pictures. However, it fits my hand well and all 4 rollers make curve-around contact with my calves, ankles or arms at the same time on each area. My muscles feel stimulated and tingly after I use it.
Dimensions: Massaging surface is about 7 inches laid flat; there are 4 rolling rows that are 3 inches wide, each has 5 rings with 8 nodules each. Each set of the 2 rolling rows can rotate approximately 180 degrees.
It arrived in 6 days after purchase. I paid $16.99 plus $5.10 S/H through Amazon. I was not paid or compensated in any way for this review. I have already ordered another SPJ Slimming Roller . . . Although I've only been using it for two days, I am so impressed that I wanted a spare because I've found that really good products become scarce or an attempt to 'improve' it only makes it worse. I have several stick massagers, ball massagers, electric massagers so I feel confident that this is a good deal/product after such a short time. This product seems well made and durable, but I intend to use it a lot and in five years, I may want another. I hope they don't bump up the price after this favorable review. Also, I cannot speak to the edema fatigue relief or cellulite removal. All I attest to is that my calf muscles feel stimulated after using it. They also feel less rigid and tight, more relaxed.

Those orthotics cost in excess of $500 each. They work well, and last 10 years plus. They have done well for me over the years and are what I use in most of my shoes (since they are removable). But here is where they fall a bit short, and where these inserts step in (no pun intended): My custom orthotics are hard/rigid material with a cushioned top. Unfortunately, for some shoes it doesn\u2019t work well - usually because I can\u2019t remove the sole insert in the shoe OR there is still some sort of arch support built into the shoe. This insert gives you the opportunity to make adjustments to the fit based on your own specific needs, as well as taking into account the limitations with the shoes they will be going in. You get two sets of \u2018pads\u2019 that you can use to adjust the insert wherever it might be needed. Each set contains 3 different sized pads, and the sets are differentiated by how rigid the pads are - one set is much firmer than the other. They are pretty easily moved around so that you can experiment with them to get them just right. The only downside is that if you are using the pads to adjust the fit/feel based on some limitation of the shoe itself (for example, if you can\u2019t remove the existing sole insert), then they aren\u2019t as easily moved from one set of shoes to the other. From a size standpoint, I wear a size 10 (men\u2019s). According to the size chart the Medium fits sizes 8.5 to 10. I almost decided to order a large and figured I could cut it down but opted for the medium and am glad I did. It is true to size, and it fits my size 10 shoes perfectly with absolutely no trimming needed. If you wear a size 8.5, 9 or 9.5 you would need to trim the medium accordingly. But ultimately, the sizing guide the seller provides is accurate. I am extremely pleased with the fit, the customizable nature, and the comfort. Too early to make any judgment on longevity though.

My previous method of getting rid of it was to use scissors to cut it out, but I was always afraid that I would accidentally cut the cat. Plus my cat hated the grooming process. So I bought these clippers hoping to be able to get the mats out and clip all of the fur down close, then use the clippers to maintain what I had done. I've been using the clippers for a few weeks now.
QUALITY: The quality of the clippers, including the box they came in, was surprisingly nice. They are sturdy and easy to charge. The plug end of the charger can only go in one way, so the two sides are shaped differently. The guides go on easily if you follow the instructions.
SOUND: The are indeed quiet, as compared to human hair clippers. I was still afraid that the cat would not get used to them. I did have to turn them on and put them next to her food dish while she ate, for about a week. Fortunately her love of food won out. At the end of the week she was sniffing the clippers, then ignoring them.
USE: The next week I started trying to clip her fur with the clippers. My cat's fur is about an inch long. I tried using all 4 sizes of the length guides and I was disappointed to find that I could not use the clippers at all with any of the guides. After a stroke of only 2 inches, the hair completely clogged up the guide and I would have to stop and pull the hair out to go on. I only have a limited time while she is still distracted by her food to use the clippers so that was frustrating.
I ended up taking the guide off and using the clipper that way. It goes very close to the skin without a guide. I'd say it leaves 1/16" of hair. I was somewhat worried about nicks but after 8 or 9 sessions so far and most of her torso fur gone there hasn't been one nick. The clippers are very gentle. At this stage the cat finds the clippers somewhat annoying but she is not at all afraid and lets me go about the process until the food runs out. The clippers are somewhat weak if they encounter any resistance from a hair mat so tackling one of those takes multiple strokes. I am glad that the clippers are so gentle.
For $7.99 these clippers do the job if one is willing to spend the time. For a cat with shorter hair than mine I'm not sure that the guide problem I had would be an issue.", "label": 1}

I bought her a heavy duty bookbag for more than $20 last year, and used it with only the top strap over her head rest, and it lasted a year. But it was easy for people to get into, because it stuck out like a sore thumb and everyone knows how to get into those things.
I don't expect stuff we put on her chair to last more than a year--nothing ever does, but I like it to look like part of the chair, like it came with the chair, so it doesn't draw too much attention and it looks neater.
I like it to match the wheelchair, to not draw attention. It's not as fun or colorful, but her stuff's always getting stolen, so I like to make it as inconspicuous as possible.
Most thieves don't immediately know how to get into custom wheelchair assessories, so it buys her some time and protection, especially when the bag is on the back of her chair.
Anyway, I also bought it to hold the chair's power charger, so that we wouldn't have to bend all the way down to the bottom of the chair to pull it out of the little compartment they made for that.
So now the charger is stored in this new bag at waist level and it's convenient, accessing it in the top zippered pocket.
There's only two other pockets on the bag, which are both small and face outward. One right one we used to store a small Totes umbrella, and the one on the left we use to store a small case with a folded up emergency poncho.
We use a separate quilted bag that matches her wheelchair that we bought last year for whatever else she has to carry temporarily. That one has a regular tote bag strap and it fits over the head rest easily. She keeps her few valuables in a purse that's attached to a strap around her.
We typically have to replace stuff every year, and I'd love to buy her something frilly and fun, but it's just not worth having her stuff stolen.
Anyway this particular bag is made out of a thin vinyl kind of parachute material it seems, but I'm confident that it will be strong enough to hold her power charger box and cords. The stitching is strong and the zippers look well made, so I'm confident about the chair bag and happy with the purchase price.", "label": 1}

This review is for the ZHIBAI Nose and Ear Hair Trimmer. This is the first time I\u2019m trying an ear & nose trimmer from this brand and at first glance this looks like a nice and easy to use product. I\u2019ve been lucky to try a similar product from another brand, and after comparing them, I can say that they do the same job, but there\u2019s always room for improvement.
All of the included items are packaged in a ZHIBAI branded black box that snugly fits each of components in plastic casing to protect the contents while in transit. Even though this appears to be a budget quality product, from a packaging stand-point it presents well and can be considered as a gifting option! All in all, I\u2019d say that the packaging has a good shelf presence.
To learn more about its functionality, the online product description does a good job detailing its features, so I won\u2019t repeat all of that. The handheld unit is slim, compact and is sleek black in color. It\u2019s easy to hold and position while in use; it feels solid and has a good weight to it which makes this comfortable to use. Once the battery is installed, there\u2019s a hidden switch in the base which can be confusing for the first-time user. The unit is a somewhat powerful and works well; however, I\u2019ve found that the rotary blade slows down from time to time and often snags hair which is painful. Replacing and cleaning the unit is easy, as you disassemble and run it through water to dislodge any hair remnants.
Overall, this is an ok trimmer for the price. It\u2019s very easy to use, and works ok. Maybe worth a try if you don\u2019t want to spend too much on a trimmer.

I also note that the page shows the ingredients to be \"Ginger(root), Cane Sugar, Glucose Syrup, Water, Citrus Pectin, Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate, Natural Flavors\" whereas the actual packaging shows the ingredients to be \"Cane Sugar, Glucose Syrup (Corn Syrup), Water, Citrus Pectin, Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate, Adipic Acid, Natural Apple Flavor, Black Carrot Extract, Curcumin, Spirulina Extract for Color, Maple Syrup, Chili Pepper.\" That's a LOT of ingredients on the package that aren't on the list provided on the product page and it seems, given that ingredients lists are typically in the order of prominence, that the most prominent ingredient, per the product page list, is ginger, which it clearly is not as each serving contains 2 mg of ginger but 5 grams of added sugars.
I can't find any reference to anything in here that is organic, other than the listing on the product page proclaiming \"Organic AVC Gummies\". As someone who typically buys organic whenever given the choice, I'm used to seeing (a) an ingredients list that shows what is organic and (b) a license logo from whoever is certifying the product or its ingredients are organic; both are lacking here.
The fact that the ingredients list on the product page and on the package do not match is of significant concern to me.
As to the product itself, the odor of vinegar is much more prominent here than with other AVC gummies that I've used. While the heavy sugar keeps the vinegar from being too strong, the taste is still there and the gummies themselves are much more grainy than any of the other AVC gummies I have used. While other gummies with the same amount of sugar seem to be more candy-like to me, these are not as easy to chew and swallow.
I'm also confused by the need to take 2 gummies to get one serving; the amount of sugar in each serving is 5 grams and the amount of ACV is 10% of that, meaning if they simply cut the sugar by 10%, the full amount of AVC could get ONE gummy. Perhaps they need the two gummies to split up the vinegar flavor, but the amount of sugar strikes me as very high.
After the issue with the ingredients listing, that is that what is on the package differs materially from the product listing, I have little faith in this product.", "label": 0}

It has a nice sleek, minimalist design appearance. There's only one button, for very easy operation. The massage heads merely push on, and pull off, but they don't fall off when in operation. Perhaps the only design flaw is the piece of silicone that holds the cover for the charging port will sometimes interfere with standing it up on a counter. It's generally possible, but I feel it's not very stable. It's a minor issue, though.
Operation is a simple press of the power button, which lights up the ring around the button. Also, the top button lights up, indicating the first power level. Another press advances to the next power level, indicated by the bottom light coming on. Next press activates the third power level, with both lights alight. The next press will power it off.
I was actually surprised by the robust sonic cleansing effect of this brush. You actually feel the brush impacting the face. In fact, I had to take off the brush head to confirm that it wasn't rotating the brush. Prior to this device, I always felt that rotary brushes performed much better at cleansing the face, because I actually felt the brush moving on the face. I got this effect from this sonic cleansing brush.
There is no information regarding the battery capacity, other than the product details stating that it takes 3 hours to charge it, and it lasts 2 months (with the title explicitly stating \"continuous use for 2 months\"). I think the battery capacity and some semblance of operating time estimate should be provided, especially in the user manual. This absence dings the rating.
Additionally, they state that the device is 'waterproof', without disclosing the waterproof rating. I consider IPX7 to be waterproof, with lower ratings to be water-resistant. This information is also lacking in both the product details and user manual.
The user manual is very brief, with sparse information/specifications. This is the negative aspect of the product.
Overall, I do like this sonic cleansing brush, a lot. Attached are photos to show real world images of the sonic cleansing brush, with a ruler for size reference. Various angles, accessories and close ups are provided for a comprehensive overview of the product.
The missing information/specifications lowers the rating of an otherwise excellent product. It receives a 4.5+ star rating, with a high level recommendation.", "label": 1}

And, usually, their offerings are only in that specific red light wavelength spectrum. This product offers both Red Light Therapy and Near InfraRed Light Therapy, 660nm wavelength and 850nm wavelength respectively. The main difference between the two is the depth of penetration of the light therapy. Red Light deals more with aspects closer to the surface of the skin, while Near Infrared Light can affect deeper within the skin to more directly affect muscles and subcutaneous tissue.
Some assembly is required in this instance. The bottom section unscrews to reveal the battery compartment. They supply 1 rechargeable battery. In this design form, when the rechargeable battery goes bad, you can purchase a replacement, and continue using the product. In other products, with a 'fixed' installed rechargeable battery, when the battery fails, the product is finished. And, rechargeable batteries do eventually fail.
In another clever design move, they made the top section removable, too. This reveals the usb-c charging port. There is a small indicator light near the charging port. While charging it glows red, and then green when fully charged. It takes 4 - 5 hours to fully charge a depleted battery. The defined treatment session is 10 minutes, after which the device will automatically power off. The user manual states that it can be operated up to 12 times on a single charge. So, basically 2 hours of expected operating time.
Besides the usual accessories (protective eyeglasses, drawstring pouch and usb power cable), they include a tripod with flexible legs and an adapter clamp to hold the light therapy pen. This is a smart and clever addition, which allows the user to position the device handsfree. This addition boosts the rating. It's an accessory that I never considered with our other light therapy 'pens'.

High-frequency also increases circulation to stimulate collagen, making the treatment an effective anti-aging and glow-boosting tool. Each electrode has a designated use whether for fighting acne (Argon) or stimulating anti-aging (Neon).\" (various online sources)
Studies have shown that high frequency treatments for the skin and hair can boost healthy aspects, eliminating bacteria and enhancing circulation, collagen. You'll find two types of high frequency therapy devices: Argon, which will emit a purplish light and Neon, with an orange hue. \"There are 2 types main types of gasses in High frequency wands- Argon and Neon. That is where the glow comes from. The argon gas is purple and is for acne, oily skin, ingrown hairs. The Neon is orange and it's for building collagen and helping with wrinkles.\"(online source) So, this product, with the Neon/orange light would act to rejuvenate the skin.
The current cost is $28.50, including the 5% discount coupon. When I mentioned the price, the significant other was surprised. She said that to get a high frequency treatment at a spa or skin clinic costs more than that. So, there is already value built into the product.
Operation is simple, easy. Merely push one of the four wands into the cavity receptacle at the top of the handle. Plug in the power plug into a normal AC outlet. There is one dial/knob at the base of the handle. Turning it clockwise powers it on, and as you turn it further, it increases the intensity with corresponding color intensity. Then you apply the functional aspects of the glass wand to the skin or hair. To turn it off, simply turn the knob counter-clockwise until it clicks at the end.

It's a very capable device, able to deliver effective electrical signals to effect muscle and nerve stimulation. In fact, the levels of intensity are probably more than ample, with most users finding the lower levels more than adequate.
It seems that the primary upgrade is the addition of an output port for each channel. So, you can actually affix four sets of pads, 2 per both A and B channels, to either form an extensive treatment or to share a 'massage' session simultaneously. Keep in mind that each channel has a set output, and adding pads will share that intensity. So, you may find that you'll increase the intensity levels to accommodate the shared load. Then, if you opt to use just one set of pads per channel, you will need to adjust for that instance (so a lower intensity will feel the same, within your tolerance levels.
I have a slight issue with the two side buttons. It's very difficult to identify them using their markings. Fortunately, it's just two buttons. The top button is the power button, where a long press will turn it on/off. The lower button is the 'lock' button. So, if you get confused and long press the lower button to turn it on, you'll notice nothing happens. Then repeat the long press on the top button, and the display will light up, and you're ready to select your mode, timer and channel intensities.
Operation if fairly simple, especially if you've previously used a consumer TENS/EMS unit. The M button allows the user to select the massage mode. T button cycles at 10 minute increments the timer function (the default is 20 minutes, but you can cycle through and get a 10 minute option).
This device is well equipped with 24 modes and 20 intensity levels. However, the only specification provided regarding the battery is that it takes 2 - 3 hours to charge the battery. And, the product details states that it lasts 20 hours 'Standby Time\". I have no idea what 'Standby Time\" means, and at what manner of settings it includes. Perhaps, it's 20 hours of just being turned on? This lack of definitive battery capacity rating and operating time dings the rating.
This issue with the battery and operating time specifications is unfortunate. The product displays decent design, materials and manufacture. And the current cost of $32, including a 20% discount, makes it very reasonably priced for it's quality level in the product genre.

The highlight of this set is the massage roller. It has a smooth jade roller on one end, and the other end contains a jade roller with segmented ridges. The center handle/shaft is also crafted from aventurine jade, not a resin product. The three jade elements of this massage roller are color matched, with a rich dark green hue, interspersed with shades of lighter green. If you subscribe to energies within stones/crystals, I would offer that the dramatic aspect of the jade stones intones considerable power/energy.
The metal arm is sturdy, and has a metal collar/ring where it enters the jade rollers. This collar is found on better quality massage rollers. Also at this juncture, the metal arm enters the jade rollers with a plastic grommet/plug acting as a bearing buffer. This affords a quiet and smooth rolling motion when in action. Just as important, this grommet acts as a buffer, to protect both the jade and the metal arm from abrasive interaction during the rolling action. The quality of the aventurine jade, quality of design and construction are all indicative of a premium level product.
The gua sha is a fine contrast of color to the massage roller. It's a lighter green, with streaks and marbling of darker greens. The gua sha follows the conventional heart shape, and has a thin, flat characteristic. With this thinner element, the edges are not as rounded, but there are no harsh sharp edges. The gua sha does not have scratches or nicks.
Both the massage roller and gua sha have noteworthy aventurine jade stones. They have decent polishing, but still maintains a natural stone tactile feel. The surfaces are smooth, but not glossy, nor a mirror smooth finish. If you believe in the inherent energies and properties of stones/crystals, you will probably prefer this level of polishing. The more closer to a natural state, the more effective the jade.
At the current cost of $10, this is an incredible bargain. I think either piece alone would cost more than that. So, this is an excellent value, deal.
Premium quality design, materials and construction, coupled with an incredible price point, make this a very serious contender if you're searching for a worthwhile aventurine jade massage roller and gua sha set. This set merits a 5- star rating, with a very high level recommendation.", "label": 1}

There are pairs of inserts that you can affix to the insole (or the inner sole of the footwear, thought placement would be tricky). They vary in size, but have the same height. You can build up to achieve your personal need by placing smaller insert on top, creating a dome-like shape. The orange inserts are 'normal' and the yellow inserts are 'softer' cushioning. You can stick with one form, or mix them. For example, a firmer bottom insert with a softer upper piece.
A word of advice: If you plan to use the cutting guide, and not the existing original insole as a template (maybe it's glued in and can't be removed), then cut larger than you think is necessary. Then you can fine tune the cut for a perfect fit. If you cut too short, there's not much recourse.
I like that you can start with this product as a cushioned insole, and gradually build up for arch support. Further, appreciate the option to customize the softness of the arch support. I put this into my winter boots, with soft arch support, and it feels great. My shoe size is mens 8.5, and it's near the lower end of this product's Medium size. I think I cut along the lines that measure for size 9 (checking that it seemed larger than the existing space). Lo and behold, it fit perfectly into the boot. Maybe boots have extra space, more than sneakers or regular shoes. But, this is the very reason I advise cutting larger and then fine tune your adjustments.
Overall, the product appears to be constructed of quality materials, similar to other insole/orthotic products. It is not as stiff as other orthotics, which I prefer. (I don't require an orthotic, even though i don't have normal arch levels. So, i use cushioned insoles which give a gentle arch assist/support.) I used the softer insert, for a gentle slope and support. At this point it's difficult to assess durability. It seems to be made with quality materials, similar to other insole products. However, if it deteriorates quickly, or affords less comfort/support, i will amend this review.
I like the concept and implementation of the assorted shapes and stiffness of self stick inserts, with a cushioned formed insole. This product earns a 4.5 - 4.75 star rating, with a very high level recommendation.", "label": 1}

I wanted a portable unit that I could put in my backpack or sports duffle, so I could deal with achy muscles after sports or doing odd jobs away from home. This unit fits that bill admirably.
The TENS unit is solidly constructed, not too heavy but with enough heft to give it substance. In other words, it doesn't feel cheap or like a toy. The display screen is nicely sized, so viewing the options is fairly easy. There are basically 6 modes, with each having 4 iterations. A and B channels are independent, which allows you to alter the intensity of each channel. While not usually mentioned in these portable TENS units, you can also opt to just set up one set on a channel, for a simplified 'massage' instance.
The setup of the pads is very simple and straightforward. The setup of each channel, selecting the modes and intensities is fairly intuitive. I'm not sure if my prior experience was a large factor, but setting up the channels and actually using this unit seemed very easy and less complicated than previous generations of portable TENS products.
I did have one issue with the product. The USB power supply was faulty. After connecting the power cables, it failed to charge the batteries. I simply used another usb power brick to charge the TENS unit. I will need to test the provided USB power supply to determine if it's truly defective. I will update this review after I determine the actual condition of that component.
After an afternoon of biking and playing some tennis, my leg muscles were barking, especially the calf muscles. So, while at my friend's house, we were both recuperating from being weekend sport warriors, and i pulled out this product, to attend to my leg aches. He watched with amazement and curiosity. After a brief session, he asked if he could try it. So, I set it up on his balky knee, and adjusted the pattern and intensity. He said it's fascinating and effective. I told him I have a set at home, and got this for my 'away' bag, and explained the science/technology behind the TENS EMS. Told him I got it from Amazon. He wrote down the name of the product and said he needed to get one, too. So, that is a random, objective endorsement, which I feel positively influences the rating.
Attached are photos to show real world images, with ruler for size reference.
I feel the product matches exactly with the description and illustrations in the product details. It is decently priced in the market niche. Based on ease of use, and quality of build, it merits 4.25 - 4.5 stars and a high level recommendation.", "label": 1}

The first day after we arrived Hong Kong last year, my 2 dogs started suffering from skin allergy, very itchy. They have to wear the protective collars 24/7.
Three days ago, after feeding my dogs with drinking water, I went to the kitchen and forgot to put the collar back on to my 4 year old 7 pound Maltese. When I came back to my bedroom after 30 minutes, I found the chin and neck of my dog were bleeding with blood here and there on her pillow. When I was cleaning her wound, which was pretty massive, I saw her wound no longer had any hair left, and the kind of dark red flesh was exposed, very horrible. On the right side of her hairless bleeding neck, a lump in the size of a cherry was still swelling. I think my dog must have scratched through her skin and damaged the lymph around her neck.
At that moment, I suddenly remembered the silver water generator that I had taken with me when I came to Hong Kong.
I took the generator out, cleaned it, set it up and finished making the silver water all in a total of 30 minutes. Immediately, I sprayed my dog's wound with the silver water, and pumped 0.8 ml silver water into her mouth the first time, and 0.5 ml after 2 hours. That night, I sprayed her wound with the silver water 3 times.
The following morning, my dog's wound had shown significant recovery, no longer in dark red color, the swollen cherry sized lump disappeared, and no more swelling neck. I pumped 0.5 ml silver water to her mouth two times, and sprayed her wound 3 times the 2nd day.
Today, her wound is in light color, and recovering well, no trace of inflammation at all. I sprayed her wound 3 times and gave her 0.5 ml, 1 time only.
Instead of using the silver wires that came with the device, I used 10mm silver wires to shorten the processing time. I used 17 minutes to process the silver water for my dog's wound without doing the ppm reading, so I still don't know what ppm the silver water got in 17 minutes with the 10mm silver wires, but the result is amazing.
Seeing my dog's quick improvement, my sisters were amazed by the silver water and asked me to make each of them a glass of silver water.", "label": 1}

I got tired of washing (destaining) blood-stained clothes so I got these vinyl pull on under pants. Since I usually wear a size 8/Med in clothes, I got a size Med. Boy, they're huge! The elastics are not that uncomfortable but the vinyl is super roomy. It balloons out as if your tummy and hip are supposed to be fluffy airy bread/marshmallow. It doesn't matter though. They're under my clothes (pants/shorts/skirt/dress). As long as the blood stays inside the vinyl, what does it matter what it looks like?
I do a 3-layer protection during heavy days - overnight pads (or 2 overlapping heavy pads for a really long overnight pad) worn in snug panties + vinyl under pants + a waterproof incontinence mattress pad. The vinyl under pants catch leakage/spillover. The mattress pad is just there in case the vinyl under pants fail (but that hasn't happened yet). These are vinyl so you're going to perspire a bit under it. But, I only wear these for 2-3 days per months so it's not that big of a deal. I don't know how comfortable/uncomfortable this would be if I have to wear these 24/7.
There's less to wash for me now during my heavy days - just underwear, no pants/shorts/skirt/dress. I only hand wash these vinyl under pants and then hang them to dry.
Update 10/25/2015:
What others have said is true. The seams are really very weak. After a few uses, the seams come undone. Downgraded to 2 stars. What I did to fix it was to use a soldering iron very lightly and over a PTFE cloth (oven liners) so the soldering iron will not stick to the vinyl. Be very careful when you do this. You only need a light tough otherwise your iron will melt the vinyl through.
If you don't want the hassle of using a soldering iron, just apply heavy duty shipping/packaging clear tape. It doesn't look as neat as hot sealing but it's underneath your clothes. Who cares what it looks like?
Another option is to use vinyl adhesive - e.g., PVC cement (the kind used in plumbing) or Loctite vinyl/fabric/plastic flexible adhesive. Apply with a cotton bud. A good preemptive step is to reinforce the seams by adhering the seam with vinyl adhesive so that it doesn't come apart when the hot seal eventually fails (and it will fail). The PVC cement is very strong so use just a small amount and spread evenly over the seam surface.", "label": 0}

2) Device setup is explained very poorly at the official website.
First of all, the setup wants you to either use a Laptop with WIFI or a mobile phone. A desktop computer without a wifi card will not work.
During setup the scale acts as its own access point, and your Laptop / phone has to connect to it. That is why a desktop computer can't be used.
So I tried first setting up on my desktop, clueless in how it worked. Setup failed and because my desktop doesn't have wifi.
Then I tried to setup the device on my mobile phone, a Samsung Galaxy Note. I thought it was working, the phone connected to the scales temporary access point from the mobile setup webpage. But the mobile site then failed, stopped at a screen saying trying to connect.
I then got my laptop, installed the same software that failed on my desktop and reset the scale by removing one battery. The software found my access point and I saved my wifi password to the scale. So I am all setup now.
If your reading this before setting up your own, just use your Windows laptop on wifi for best setup results.
3) I have to create separate accounts for everyone in my family. Why can't we just have 1 account?
4) And the final issue, official FAQ says
\"I am pregnant. Can I use the Fitbit Aria?\" \"Yes, the Aria is safe for pregnant women to use, but the body fat % and BMI measurements may not be accurate for you.\"
But the piece of paper that is included with the scale says \"WARNINGS Do not use this product if you have a pacemaker or other internal medical device, or are pregnant. This product is not intended for use by children under 10 years of age. Always consult your physician to determine what is most ideal for you\"
So what is it?pregnant YES or pregnant NO. Should I risk zapping my unborn baby? Why does the company say two different things?
5) Why can't my other kids who are under 10 use the scale?
6) Why can't two people use different measurements. I want to graph lbs, but my wife is used to kg. The website forces us to use the same measurement system for some weird reason - even though we were forced to create separate accounts.
7) Will give an updated review in a few days once we get some data recorded. I emailed the company about the pregnant issue, will report back.", "label": 0}

I set it up for my wife and also setup her Kindle to stream the movie \"About Time\" which show a run time of 2 hours and 3 minutes. She actually watched the whole movie with this product on and running and the suction held up well even after the water has been drained.
I believe that the complain about the suction is due to improper installation. One of the suction was also folded a little when I first got it out of the box same as some of the comments I have read from other reviewers but it did not give me any problem after I have it installed in the tub.
Tip to have a strong suction.
1. Make sure that the surface is flat and clean.
2. Wet the wall and the suction prior to installing.
3. Push the suction flat into the tub wall making sure that there was no air inside the suction cup. If properly installed, the suction cup should be flat and not cone shaped. If there is air inside the suction cup then it will give up with the weight of the product or when the jet turned on.
Note: When you have a properly installed suction, you will not be able to just pull the jet spa from the wall. The only way to remove the suction is to peel the suction cup 1 at a time.
This jet spa keeps the foam from the foam bath that my wife added in the water. I did not see any difference between the jet stream mode and the bubble mode. It seem to just push the water around at the same rate. We have it set to bubble so I guess that is what keeps the foam from the foam bath soap working the whole time but it could be the same if we leave it at jet stream mode.
I did not see any cleaning procedure on the manual but after my wife's use, I clean this by filling one of my kids bucket with clean water and submerge the bottom part of this product letting it suck the clean water from the bucket and spit it out to the tub. I did this about 4 or 5 times.
I left the product hanging on the wall for more than 24 hours to make sure that all the water have dripped and the filter dried up before putting it back in the box for storage. 2 of the suction was still holding up after over 24 hours of the product just hanging on the tub wall so I could say that it is built to hold the device during use.", "label": 1}

I want to preface my current review by saying that I have used this particular set of bamboo rounds for over a year (including machine laundering and ironing) and they are good as new (although not as white as when they were new). No holes have developed, the edging hasn't come apart. They are wonderful a year later! Here is my original review:
I have not found anything I like as much as these. The main reason for this is because these pads consist of a woven texture that are both gentle and exfoliating. Because they are woven, they hold their shape very well and don't roll up. The other types of bamboo pads I've tried are a knit-type and they have a terry-like texture. I find this type to be too thin to use efficiently and they just don't feel as nice on my skin. If I wanted terry, I'd just use a washcloth. The particular kind of pad in this review is my absolute favorite. It uses a bit more product than the terry texture, but it's a much sturdier and efficient pad. I absolutely love these.
These pads are terrific! I use only micellar water to take my makeup off, so I just saturate one of these pads and wipe my face slowly to remove the makeup. Unlike cotton pads, they don't shrink or roll up once I've dirtied them. Because they are bamboo, I can then rinse out the pad and go over my face again with just water (or toner) to remove any residue. These pads aren't terribly soft, but that's a good thing, because that second wipe allows me to exfoliate gently without irritating my skin and without the pad falling apart. There is no strap across one of the pads' faces, so it doesn't matter which side you use.
Each pad has a fabric edging that keeps the pad from falling apart or fraying-- they are very well made. They come with a little mesh bag and I keep mine on a hook on the back of the bathroom door and as I use a pad, I rinse it and toss it in the little bag until the next laundry day (don't use fabric softener on these!). The pads come in a tasteful, decorative canister that is not only pretty, but also a very sanitary way to store these pads. I can't speak for their longevity once they start seeing a lot of washing, but they do seem like they will hold up very well with some care.", "label": 1}

It\u2019s a little sketchy that the QR codes on the package either lead to a dead page (404 error) or the one that goes to their website it just a single splash page with a 8 bullet list of marketing points. So much for that \u201cFree User Guide\u201d they promote, or the \u201cGet your next bottle free!\u201d Promotion. I tried doing additional research on Gods Greens and came up with very little. I\u2019m hoping they may just have poor marketing, but for any product that I put in my body, I want to know that I can trust the company making the product, and that all of the claims they make are legitimate.
What I DO like about this product is that it\u2019s manufactured in an FDA-registered facility, made in the USA, and 3rd party verified. It\u2019s also good that the product contains black pepper, because turmeric studies have proven it\u2019s more effective in conjunction with pepper. However, I\u2019m not sure if they have enough black pepper for the ratio of turmeric. The youtheory brand I\u2019ve been using for the past year has 10mg of black pepper for every 1,000mg of turmeric. The Gods Greens brand only has 15mg of pepper for every 2,100mg of turmeric.
Of the claims on the bottle, one that I\u2019m not too sure about is the bottle\u2019s label states \u201cCertified Organic by Organic Certifiers\u201d. In doing some research, you\u2019ll find that a lot of times organic products slip through the cracks. I tried to contact Gods Greens at the phone number they listed to understand the process of being organic certified, but got an answering machine. Granted, it is a Sunday, but it could be like that all the time. Didn\u2019t help my suspicion with the legitimacy of the company.
Lastly, I was excited at the high-volume of turmeric in these (2,250mg) as listed on the front of the bottle, but in flipping over and reading the back - the serving size is THREE capsules!! That was NOT clear in the product description or from looking at the packaging. What I thought at first was a great value of for this product quickly changed when I realized I had to divide that by 3 to get the true cost for \u201c1 serving\u201d of these.
In short, I am disappointed by misleading marketing, serving size, and have concerns about the trustworthiness of the company that makes these. I will be going back to purchasing my turmeric supplements from youtheory, and/or keeping my eye open for a different brand (nothing wrong with youtheory, just a little pricey).", "label": 0}

I have very sharp, full-spectrum hearing in my other ear. Overall, the combination gives adequate hearing and I've never felt the need for a hearing aid. Still, I wondered what improvements might be possible if I boosted the low-frequency sound in my bad ear.
This product looked like a great and relatively low-cost way to see what improvement might be had by boosting the low frequencies in my bad ear. It is claimed that this hearing aid has four spectral modes: mode 1 gives uniform amplification, mode 2 boosts high frequencies, mode 3 boosts medium frequencies, and mode 4 boosts low frequencies. Mode 4 was of interest to me. It is also claimed that this hearing aid has six different volume (amplification) levels.
I was eager to see what this product could do for me. I inserted one of the pair of this hearing aid in my bad ear and wore it for a couple of evenings around the house, doing mundane house chores and chatting with my wife. I have these observations:
1. There seems to be very little difference among the four spectral modes. They all sound essentially the same to me.
2. In all spectral modes, including mode 4, high frequencies were WAY TOO LOUD! This was unpleasant and even painful at times. This was true even though I set the unit at the lowest of its six volume levels. (And there wasn't much difference I could hear between the six volume levels.)
3. I heard a distinct and annoying artificial background hiss continuously. This hiss probably would have been substantially less if I could have turned down the volume further, to a level appropriate for my ear. Also, this hiss might have been less if mode 4 worked better to amplify just low-frequencies and not high-frequencies as well.
4. I heard instances of fuzzy distortion on speech, and my own speech sounded very loud.
5. Here are some of the sounds that were jarring, unpleasant, and even painful in my hearing-aid-boosted ear: the sound of my fork hitting my plate, the sound of the door latch as I closed the utility room door, the sound of the washing machine lid as I closed it, and the sound of my wife's normally pleasant laugh from a distance of three feet.

So I gave in an ordered this a week or two ago and have already done my 3rd appilcation, and I truly wish I would have taken a before picture so I could compare. I was kind of a skeptic but man I do actually see some of my more noticiable stains lifting.. and to put this out there this is a bleaching kit, I know it says and whitens your teeth but its a teeth bleaching. Which everyone probley knows but the people who havent looked into this like myself thats what It is, thats why theu recommened buying a remineral teeth product cause your teeth do get quite sensitive after a couple uses.. depending on what they've alreqdy been put through.
But all in all, a really good product you should DEFINITELY plan each step ahead, when your going to imprint your teeth.. how long you plan on keeping them on.. your after care teeth plan.. if you're busy provley just wait till you have free time so you dont rush and mess something up, cause the first time needs patience atleast just to get the hang of using it.
This came with 3 syringes full of the teeth bleach, 2 mouth pieces (that can be formed to teeth when heated up, this is whqts going to need patience.. I heated mines up with hot water ended up melting so I had to reheat untill it fit and zlwas kind of back to normal.. so definitely take your time.)
Also came with the blacklight looking mouth piece, with a teeth shade sheet.. a q-tip, and some basic instructions. Which were alright not to detailed ended up having to do my own research, but that was going to happen either way. So just be sure to read into thiis and space out yoyr applications they say to not apply day after day but tp give your teeth a day break.. but id recommend after your 3rd applivation start doing 2-3 day breaks cause your teeth do tend to get intensly sensitive without decent after care.

It has a cinch strap on the back which you can unbuckle and flip around the front if you want to compress the bag to save space, but if you fully stock it then you won't need it so I plan on removing it. There's also a vecro strap at the top of the pouch, the only two things that I think it could be used for are to slow small children from getting in the pack or more likely if you were to use it in a combat situation you could close it with this strap instead of using the zippers which would save a few seconds. I'll probably remove this also but some people might want it so I see why they included it.
But once you open the bag is when you can see how great the design is, there's a zippered pocket which hinges out, the middle section which is the main compartment, and then the top compartment which swings out from the body. When I started loading the pouch up I realized that left to right starting with the pouch on the left side the pouch can be used as a three section first aid kit which can be used chronologically- the zippered pouch can hold saline wipes, insect sting wipes, bandaids, alcohol pads (for very small wounds, or when you have nothing else, but saline wipes are better for wounds), burn pads, and anything else you may need for small issues. The second compartment is for more serious issues, you can put sterilized gloves, quick clot (gauze with impregnated activated charcoal I think it is to slow bleeding), sterilized pads, an Israeli bandage, or anything else that you need for moderate issues. The final compartment can be used for really serious issues, I put large absorbent pads, large burn pads, large gauze, and the scissors here- if you look at the picture the two pockets have a velcro strap to hold them shut and there are three MOLLE style elastic loops to hold the scissors which are included, tweezers, a small scalpel, etc.

Five days ago, after better educating myself about Mg, after reading Dr Dean's postings, that it may take months to clear problems, and one has to take much more than 400mg as most isn't absorbed. Also that the blood serum test is worthless; mine always showed normal.
Background: I was a long distance runner for 20 years, extreme hiker and racquetball player for 10 years. All that time, all I took was Centrum. No other supplementation. Seven years ago, to lose weight, I started juice fasting; did two 21 day fasts, several 10-12 day fasts, and probably 80 three or four fasts. I think the years running, etc, made my Mg low, but these juice fasts probably about depleted me. Six years ago, I developed high BP, rapid heart beat, arrhythmia, and a feeling of extreme fatigue after just a couple hours physical work, shortness of breath after exertion, plus insomnia. All this sound like Mg being low?
So I ordered ReMag and am hopeful. The last 5 days I"ve been taking half Mg citrate and half glycinate, for a total of about 800mg, but will stop those and go full ReMag.

Mostly I use in it my salad dressing, which started out as being avocado, MCT oil, sea salt, turmeric (powder) and pepper. I started using it to make raspberry vinaigrette, which is delicious. And now recently began to incorporate dulse, garlic, cilantro, fresh turmeric, fresh ginger and apple cider vinegar to make it even healthier. Of course, I could use other oils, like a walnut or macadamia nut oil, but MCT oil is processed very differently in the body, which is why I continue to use it daily.
This particular MCT oil from Strength Genesis comes in a clear bottle and is the most beautiful bottle of MCT oil that I have seen! It is tall and sleek \u2013 and actually made it onto my counter top! It even comes with a lid/cork, which serves to seal off the MCT oil once you are done pouring it. I actually have one of those green salad dressing bottles that I pour my MCT oil into (because most bottles are quite large), but I don\u2019t have to do that with this brand.
I appreciate that the company informs you of the quantities of C8 and C10 in the oil (on the back of the bottle). If you are new to MCT, I recommend that you work your way up to a tablespoon. If you go straight to using one tablespoon, you may end up with gastric upset, so it\u2019s best to start with 1 teaspoon and see how that goes. Most say the taste is imperceptible, but I always feel like MCT oil has sort of a nutty taste. I love it!
If you want to give some weight and smoothness to your shake, you can add some MCT oil. It\u2019s tasty right out of the bottle (yes, I consume it straight for a kick of energy) or in any salad dressing! The limitation with MCT oil is that you cannot cook with it because of its low smoke point, so keep that in mind.
I went to their website and you can see that their company is focused on wellness \u2013 and I love this mission. They sell a range of wellness items and even have some delicious-looking recipes (ahem, \u201cAvocado Breakfast Bowl\u201d) to try.

I have used a wide range of nootropics (note that is product is called \u201cNitropics\u201d), and each of them has a different mechanism of action. Some ingredients in some of these supplements actually make me sleepy! This one does not.
What I like about this product is that it contains vitamins and herbs (among other ingredients), so I am familiar with nearly everything on the label. I decided to try it on the days when I felt that my mind was surveying all of the tasks without concentrating on a single one. Clearly, many mornings, I just have so many things I am trying to do before a client call, and I feel like I am going in circles between feeding the cats and dogs, preparing my morning shake, getting ready, etc.
I did feel like this helped me streamline my focus. I suppose that much of the time I am looking at the overview of everything that must be completed either before I can actually start my day, and then also at my task list once the day is underway. Apparently this creates overwhelm for me \u2013 and that\u2019s in spite of my morning meditation!
I tend to take this on the days when I need to have laser focus to get a large number of things done, or when I notice that I am jumping around from task to task and start to feel frazzled. This product has helped me concentrate on the task at hand as opposed to doing something for 60 seconds and jumping to something else, leaving the other task incomplete.
This product is non-GMO and caffeine-free, both of which I appreciate because another supplement I use already has caffeine. The suggested use is from 1 to 3 capsules, but the serving size for the ingredients listed is 3 capsules. Because I take other supplements that contain caffeine, I split up the dose, taking 2 capsules two hours after taking the caffeinated supplement and 1 capsule later in the day. This avoids one product potentiating the other.
Overall, I absolutely recommend this product. It provides quite a number of ingredients, many of which I have researched, so I know the research supports the intended outcome. If you often feel like your \u201ctask list\u201d creates overwhelm (perhaps you are an entrepreneur?!), then find a program that helps you organize your tasks and take a product like this to help you achieve levels of focus to complete those items that you might not otherwise achieve.", "label": 1}

For me, after two spinal surgeries, I was hoping to mitigate the chronic pain I have, and hoped to add some comfort to the chair I use for sewing. From my point of view here re the pros and cons as I \u201cfeel\u201d \u2018em:
The Pros:
1. I do think that the gridded construction of the material does help disperse heat. My sewing area is in a loft with a very low ceiling and in the summer it gets SO hot! I have been able to spend a bit more time up there this summer because my derriere feels a bit more comfortable with this cushion.
2. It IS supportive.
The Cons:
1. The \u201cnon-slip\u201d cover is not very non slip. I have tried it on a variety of chairs and it it slips on them all. I feel that the fabric used for the cover should be: a) more substantial (while it is a nice, stretchy, knit it is a bit thin) and b) have a much beefier, much more \u2018non slip\u2019 fabric on the bottom of the cover. I may make a new cover for I myself. I also think that a sturdier cover would increase the comfort factor since it would minimize the feeling of the gridded purple material. In home dec sewing some cushions are first wrapped in polyester first to add support for the cushioning material and, imho, that would not be a bad thing.
Other than that I DO find it to be a comfortable, helpful, cushion. I am older, and relatively petite and perhaps the Purple Royal or Double would have been a better choice for me. For larger people this would be great. I can really see it making a big difference, in a positive way, for truckers and those who spend a lot of time in their cars.
I thought perhaps I should have gotten a foam type alternative, but that would not have helped disperse the heat at all! I thunk my decision to get this cushion was good in long run\u2026.", "label": 1}

I am guessing that anxious is the right word. He wants to be near someone all the time. Honestly it is annoying. Started with him pacing back and forth outside our bedroom at night, and then he would cry. Thinking he needed to go out, we would get up and bring him out. Back in, 10 minutes later same thing. We put up gates to keep him away from our door, and he pushed those out of the way to get to our door. Finally, desperate to get some sleep, we let him stay in the room. He is noisy, it is horrible! He does this lip smacking thing, sometimes ending with throwing up. He gets up, walks across the room and then flops, loudly, on the other end. 20 minute later he is back to his previous spot. One night we got the idea to turn on the window AC. We usually do not run it at night, but just put it on fan for the noise. Either he was quieter or we just didn't hear him as much. Realizing we live in New England, and running the window AC, or even having it in your winter, is crazy come fall, I bought this. One of the fan sounds is like our AC. Still hear the loud stuff, but now can get a solid 45-60 minutes sometimes, before he wakes us up.
This one has a volume knob. Many newer units have a volume up or down button, so if you don't like any of the 8, 10, 12 set volumes, you are out of luck. This does run off a USB C cord, and must be plugged in. I have a USB outlet next to by bed, so can leave that plugged in without any problem. Sits on my night stand where I can reach over, and flip it on when needed. If he is strangely quiet, as he has been a night or two since he started this, we don't have to turn it on, but when he starts, especially with the mouth noises, on it goes.
Works for us now, also found then when my spouse and I are working in the house together, I will sometimes flip it on. I usually can not hear what she is saying, but can hear her talking, which distracts me. Perfect for that purpose also.", "label": 1}

As badly as I bashed the product here I am months later to sit down, have that plate of crow and like it. This item does help tremendously for long sitting. I can say without a doubt bad posture will make this item feel like a standard chair pillow. With good posture, you are literally sitting good, comfortable and pretty (handsome for men). Anyways. The gel is amazing with the right posture. It doesn't have signs of wear or whatever gel looks like with cheap quality. When I have overnight stays I take this baby with me. When is switch rooms. Guess what? This baby comes with me. You will not t go wrong in investing in this priority seat cushion. Give your posterior a daily massage.
-Pros; wonder purple gel, improve posture, durable, breathable and portable
-Cons: little pricey (that's all I got, really
-apologies: Purple I left my original review just so you can see patience really is a virtue with this item. Take your tOne, Amazon's return policy give you a great cushion to try out the device. Really follow the posture rule of thumb.
Besides the item being overpriced for what is essentially wonder gel. The egg test doesn't prove it's soft because the egg doesn't sit for hours in it. It isn't what is adveriesed when the basic memory foam offered for way less in the categories offer better cushion (I own one still). The scale in which they justify quality isn't accurate because for $80 dollars you get a basic cushion from Office Depot. My guess is the casual lax version which is in the hundreds is probably the above average cushion support that should be purchased. Don't trust the scam of the egg. Again. Eggs don't sit for hours at a time if they did they would crack. I do not recommend this price point product at all.
The customer service response? "Adjust monitor height" that's what I was told. What does that have to do with my bottom?? Zero. Do I need to say it again. The eggs doesn't have to sit down.
Cost: ridiculous for basically wonder gel. That's all. Just gel with waves.
Final verdict: should be an infomercial or "as seen on TV" because it a low grade seat cushion for a high dollar price. Can't wait to get my money back for this near scam of wording. Don't believe the hype and keep your money AND EGGS. This company doesn't care about how much overprice an avg cushion. Remember their customer service response again "oh well just return it".

I bought this mainly because I don't take flu shots and I can't afford down time from colds/flu during the winter (or anytime...who does?). Reason being, I'm a mountainbike/endurance race enthusiast and I wanted this to be an edge in my arsenal. I'm a very *low to the ground* eater, I guess Paleo is a better word for that. I try and maintain about 90% organic intake, but that is impossible while traveling to events or just because life gets in the way. This winter (2014-15) I maintained my health, except for a slight cold around mid-November after staying with a friend in the hospital . Honestly I think hospitals are the worst places to visit. To be fair, this is when I first stared with the Chaga extract. I'm not sure if it was a placebo affect at that time, but the cold was slight, not enough to slow me down or stop me from training. What isn't a placebo affect is since that time, I have not had any blips and where I live the flu was considered epidemic.
What I have noticed about this extract is I remain extraordinarily healthy, and I'm very keen on how I feel. My weights have all gone up, not body weight, but lifting weight. My squat has gone up to 250, my bench press is 100, my one arm rows are now 50. I'm a woman, so guys don't down me here. My usual daily endurance burn rides have extended in length without fatigue and riders know what I mean about over-training and what fresh legs are all about. Just all around good stuff.
As a woman, I will also say my facial skin has become clearer, and I started noticing this about half way through the bottle. I usually take about 1/2 teaspoon of this a day in the morning straight. Thing is, when you take supplements, you can't be sure at first, and I have always taken a host of supplements such as MSM, Krill, K2, Vit D, Magnesium, and you wonder if its just been a good week, hitting all the bases on the food list (salmon, veggies, etc.). But this time, I think I would miss it when I'm not taking it (maybe I should stop and come back and write another review).

With my magnifying glass, I was able to discern that Camu Camu comes from Peru and Brazil. The manufacturer claims it has 7 times more Vitamin C than an orange. It is a light orange color and is a very, very fine powder.
I like the fact Camu Camu comes from plants which grow in Amazonian Rain Forests in Peru and Brazil, but packed into a sturdy plastic container with a screw on lid and shipped from some place in California, but the size of the container is so small (4 oz.) and so the print (even if you use a strong magnifying glass, is largely illegible). But I find it is expensive, comes only in a 4 oz. size, and at the rate of 1 tsp. daily, is rapidly used up providing only 39 days of consumption. With my magnifying glass, I can read that this source is reported to be the highest source for Vitamin C anywhere. Is that true? The label is telling us nothing meaningful.
Yes I am glad to have this product as part of my extensive Ayurveda products from places that are not in the USA. All this said, there is one other resource available for Vitamin C within the USA and available from Trader Joe's which is a company I really trust for the quality of their products, and which comes in a 16 oz. size and requires only 1/4th tsp whereas Camu Camu requires 1 tsp. and provides only 39 days covers, and does not verify it claim it provides the greatest source of Vitamin C. Whereas, Trader Joe's clearly states their product at 1/4 tsp. (1,000 mg) of ascorbic acid provides 1,667% of the daily requirement for Vitamin C as well as 454 days for its inexpensive Vitamin C product. This means, Trader Joe's Vitamin C consumption provides almost 12 times more days of coverage than Camu Camu's. Which one does anyone think I'm going to continue to purchase?
Camu Camu should use larger print, a slightly larger container, and verify its claim of how much Vitamin C is provided per 1 tsp. But, since this product manufacturer says 1 tsp. of this product has 7 times more Vitamin C than an orange, I'll now see how much Vitamin C is in an average orange. Here is what Google has to say. So, will I purchase it again? It is operating just as the fake news does in the USA, and not tell us the truth.

This is a great emergency first aid kit to have in your home, vehicle, office, off road vehicle, or hiking (although to me it is a little large to bring hiking). I can not stress enough the importance of having a complete emergency kits such as this by Accumed to have with you at all times, you should always be prepared!!
Recently, I purchased a few first aid kits- one for hiking, one for my truck, and one for my off road UTV Side X Side. Originally, I had desifgnated this for my truck; however, after assessing the quality and how complete this kit is, I decided to keep this in my UTV.
Accumed did such a thorough job creating this, that I trust having this in situations where I will be out in the middle of nowhere, miles and miles from civilization and without cell service. Under these circumstances, I really have to be prepared and have emergency supplies that I can trust.
This first aid kit has everything you find in a standard kit, plus more! There are quite a few unique items that will be very handy in a time of need, such as a compass, whistle, glow stick, emergency blanket, cold pack, etc.... Every item inside is placed in an organized fashion, which makes it easy to find what uou need and easy to put back. Everything is high quality and sterile items are in appropriate sterile packaging. Scissors are sharp and cut smoothly. I am very happy with every item inside.
The kit is within a soft bag, which allows for easy storage, it will fit in most places easily. Also, the bag is tough and durable, it will hold its own without falling apart on you. Inside, there is extra room in case you want to add few extra items, such as an epi pen, hydrocortisone, triple antibiotic cream, benadryl, etc... The kit closes with double zippers that zip easily and will not jam, especially in a time of need.
When purchasing an emergency first aid kit, you must make sure you know how to use it and be sure that it is made of good quality because this is what you will have to keep you and/or a loved one safe in a time of need. I go out exploring, hiking, biking with my husband and dogs very often. I completely trust Accumed first aid kit in an emergency/ time of medical need. I would highly recommend this product to every person.

The leather is light/medium - so wear comfortable from go. But quite suitable for leading.. and does EMPHASISE a command or direction with a firm to hard pull when needed. Believe me the wearer feels it!!!
I did modify this ring upon receiving it. The chain is an annoyance more than a benefit. It is attached by a small ring and ball-loop rivet to the leather in a good place.. But that means you have a 12 inch, pretty thin, chain hanging with a quarter sized ring swinging between your legs if you get up to walk anywhere. Or it, as I learned from a similar \"toy\", can also be quite painful if it swings too wildly mistakenly turning to fast etc. It is breakable-dangerous to painful to anything and anyone within 12 inches!!!!!!
My modification:
The metal rings are NOT welded. So with gentle effort and a pair of large, long nosed-needle nose plyers, I opened the bigger ring (Where you would hook the leash I guess) and spread it open enough to slip the chain out.
(Now you can either open the small ring first to remove the chain from it, or just use wire cutters to clip a link of the chain at either side, on either step, now or last step.)
Then I inserted the small ring into the larger rings opening, and closed the larger ring with a vice. Turn the ring to ensure a tight fit. *You may also choose to add some gorilla glue or JB weld when closing the ring as I did. This is to help ensure smoothing edges, and it doesn't open later during play, as my lover has a tendency to get very aggressive at times. (Wipe excess glue/epoxy off very very well or you will have to sand it down later with a nail file.)
If you have not already removed the chain from the small ring, you can do it here. \"Clip\".
Finished product will have the larger ring- to still attach ANY leash to.. But you will not have the rings in the way, OR 12 inches of chain dangling between your legs even when \"off leash\"! Busting stuff up including your own family jewels.
Only took off 1 star on thickness - due to the chain. The leather and all other aspects were a perfect fit.

I like foam plugs but they hurt my ears, so I got these. If comfort if your problem, try the blue pair, (all 4 have different comfort and noise reduction levels). The blue ones are definitely the easiest on my ears (as the directions even state, but I'll vouch for this). They really hit the sweet spot (for me at least) since you can adjust it (in a way) for different levels of noise reduction and keep taking them in/out, without hurting your ears.
The grey pair are also good because they're pretty comfortable but don't block so much noise that you can hear your breathing, heart rate, etc. (like the blue and orange pair seem to do). The directions also say this, but I'll also vouch for this too. They aren't as comfortable as the blue pair, but moreso than the orange pair.
Also, I almost forgot -- I live in an area where if you fall asleep without earplugs you WILL be woken up, so I really wanted something that was cheap, for extended use (so I can wear them all the time and not forget to put them in before falling asleep), but that could be repurchased economically if needed. I didn't want to drop $30 for a pair of almost-the-same-thing, so this saved me ~$19.
The directions are actually pretty good, also, but they should state how removing them too quickly can damage your eardrums (a lot of people don't know this). Only other recommendation I would make to them is to switch the white pair with foam plugs, since I'll never use the pure white kind, but might use a pair of foam plugs if they happened to come with it. Or just make another set with foam plugs added and sell it for $1-2 more than this set. That way you'll have every type/kind and not need to buy other brands.
Just wanted to write this since they were a pretty good purchase, and glad I found them since they saved me from buying a bunch of different kinds.
Edit: You CAN cut the blue ones down to size to make sleeping in them easier, but you may not be able to get them out of your ear then. Had this happen twice, but it's not their fault. They should say that, though, maybe, just to sound honest.", "label": 1}

I did not feel that I was ready to go the route of prescription drugs--I avoid drugs as much as possible in my life. But I needed a little help in dealing with stress and its effects on my health. So I tried Inositol. I take about a teaspoon in filtered water twice a day. I feel it has really helped me to calm my sometimes stressful or chaotic thoughts and to approach my busy day with more mental clarity and less pressure. The Inositol product I first tried was only available in a small bottle and very expensive. Since I go through it fairly quickly I looked for more of a bulk supply and found Liftmode on Amazon. I also tried an Inositol from another manufacturer. The Liftmode product is far superior because it is less granular or gritty, and dissolves better (though not completely) in water. I find the Liftmode product to be much more pleasant to take, easier to swallow than the grittier brands, and it continues to seem to help me deal with the stress in my life. I have ordered and used at least three of these large jars now and plan to continue ordering in the future. I also started taking Vitamin B12 about the same time as Inositol, to help my stress and keep my mental functioning at its best. So I am not certain which of the two products helps me the most but I am content to keep using both, because I think they both help and provide me with something that was missing in my nutrition before I started using them. The only downside to this product is that it is rather expensive, although not as much as prescription drugs, probably, and it is worth the cost for the good it seems to do. Also, Inositol in general does not dissolve well in water. As I said, this brand is better dissolving than others. I put the powder into a little bit of water and just keep swirling it in the glass between sips, so that I can drink it quickly before the powder settles to the bottom. If there is some left in the glass, I just keep adding a bit more water until I get it all down. It is not unpleasant tasting. It tastes like mildly sweet sugar water as I drink it. My understanding is that Inositol is a sugar alcohol, so it is sweet tasting, but has no calories. Also, in case you are wondering, it does not make me intoxicated! ;)", "label": 1}

I have been buying the \"Good Night sleep mask\" from Magellan's for all this time, after trying, and discarding, quite a few others. The Magellan mask is neoprene rubber... think \"like a SCUBA suit\"... cover with soft cloth bonded to the rubber. What makes them so good is that the rubber is formed, so there is a \"domed\" cavity over each eye, and even while wearing them, you can have your eyes open, blind, and so on, with no sensation of contact with your eyes or eyelashes.
Their drawback, however, is that the fabric inevitably debonds from the rubber. A set, if well cared for, may last a year of continuous usage.
So, seeing these, I wanted to give them a try.
Generally, I like them. They're very comfortable to wear, block light effectively, and seem likely to last longer than my long-time favorites.
But they don't QUITE clear my eyelashes. Opening or closing my eyes with this on results in a \"tickling\" of my eyelashes.
If these were a bit more \"domed\" over the eyes, but identical in every other way, they would be PERFECT.
As it is, they still work quite well, and if you have short eyelashes or deep eye sockets this quibble of mine might not be a concern for you, anyway.
But for me, opening my eyes and still being in pitch blackness without any sensation of contact? That's a huge selling point. The Magellan ones accomplish that. These don't, for me.
So, while I'm keeping these and will use them, I'm not ready to abandon my favorites for them just yet. I'll keep both types around for now.
But a set like these, with the around-eye \"pillows\" and well-sewn construction, but with those domed eye cavities? That would be a vast improvement over either type. If someone made a set like those, it would be all I'd ever buy again.", "label": 1}

During my last visit to the wound doctor I took these scissors with me and asked him to cut my Unna boot off with my scissors. He was tremendously impressed, just as I knew he would be. While using mine he switched to the scissors they use and it was a struggle using them because the blades separated just enough to make cutting tedious. His comments were excellent and asked I if would send the information to him because he was going to purchase 4 of these scissors for his practice. Knowing him as well as I do I had a printout of this shears from Amazon and gave it to him. He said he will be ordering at least 4 pair. (I reminded him that they are with PRIME).
(B) During my wife's home care we told the nurse we needed some good shears. I had a pair but while cutting thick wrappings from my wife' legs daily the cutting part would separate and not cut. At our request nurse purchased shears for us which we paid for. I used them one or two times and they too separated. Since my wife's passing April 2012 I am currently wearing an Unna boot which I change by myself weekly between doctor office visits. I saw the Princess Care here at Amazon and was awed by so many good reviews by nurses, trauma and emergency room personnel. I purchased a pair and have been used them several times. (I must add at this point that the shears the home nurse used did not cut anywhere near and effortlessly as the Princess Care.) This week I was at the doctor and he was cutting the Unna boot from my foot and leg. I told him about these shears. His advise was to buy the more expensive shears because the lesser costing shears just are not worth the aggravation they yield. Watching him cutting I told him how easily my new shears cut. He did point out that cutting the wrapping from the bottom to the top is much easier because you are cutting with the wrapping - not against it like I must. When he said that I instantly liked my Princess Care shears even more because cutting against the wrapping is now very easy, no blade separation and defiantly no aggravation. I want to thank the medical personnel who took the time to issue their reviews because they helped me choose shears that allow me to remove my Unna boots effortlessly and without struggling while cutting in a very awkward position.", "label": 1}

What a waste.
Would not buy again.
We returned it the next day
Defective design, either that, or the makers/designers have really really really small noses, and take super tiny sips from the cup/mug.
So, what's wrong?
Well, the opening where you pour coffee in is super small
The smallest we have seen in a travel mug.
Standard mugs are about 3" wide.
This was only 2" wide.
Huge difference!
Plus, the puma (hole) where you sip from is so so so small
Only about 1/2", and square shape.
The best puka are a bit bigger, and NOT square shaped, more wider at lip than inside (see photos).
Plus, the nose thing
I don't like to have my nose tickled, or in this case, punched, when I try to drink my morning liquid caffeinated petrol.
If I had a small nose, it would be fine. Or maybe if I was a boxer in my former life\u2026
How bad is the nose hit issue?
Well, our favorite mugs (Starbuck ones) and this one have about a 30 degree difference in the angle you can lift the mug up to drink before the lid hits your nose.
That's a lot!
Plus, with the small puka for the drinking of coffee from, it makes it worse!
Designers, WAKE UP!!!!
I love the look of the mug!
Best one we have seen.
Coffee did not heat up outside like my old favorite mugs.
Didn't leak when I turned it upside down
This is a must for us. All our mugs have to pass this test.
It must not leak if turn upside down.
Plus, the small opening made it hard to pour the coffee into it.
I use a french press, and a gold filter to do a more fine strain to coffee when I pour it into the mug
With the 2" opening, I could NOT put the filter/screen in to pour coffee.
I had to pour into another glass/cup and then pour into this one.
I returned it.
I wanted to like it
Design is flawed, a really bad design for us "big nose" people.

These threads are made from soft metal, and are only about an inch in height. They don't need much coaxing to fail catastrophically. When they do, this relatively heavy lamp can flop over, threatening anything within its path.
If you frequently push this lamp aside, in a way that makes the neck rotate, I promise you, yours will also fail. It ain't no swing lamp!
Verilux won't sell you replacement parts on this, their most expensive lamp. Their Customer Service comment:
\"Unfortunately we do not sell separate parts for this lamp, but advice I can offer is trying teflon tape, also known as plumber's tape and wrapping that around the threads to help make a tighter connection. . . \"
This advice is dubious. Teflon tape is a lubricant, and a very, very thin product. I gamely tried the tape, and it was a waste of time. Worse, the threads are attached to the base very securely; I couldn't figure a way to remove them, despite a healthy collection of tools.
What has worked for me, at least temporarily: the old Christmas Tree Stand approach. I drilled and tapped three holes arranged around the base of the neck, and screwed three half-inch, #10x24 stove bolts through both the neck and the stripped threads. IMPORTANTLY, I attached nuts to the bolts to help limit how far the bolts go into the thread/neck assembly. The bolts should not penetrate to where they put pressure on the lamp cord (which passes through the neck, duh).
Yes, the result is rather inelegant. It looks like a Red Green Show hack. But it is not that noticeable, with the lamp in use. And it seems sturdier than the original product.
WARNING: if you try this, you must be very careful not to penetrate the insulation on the lamp cord!!! Be sure to check it visually and by feel, once you've drilled your holes. If you damage the cord, I strongly suggest you discard the lamp. If you perform this repair, you should periodically check the lamp cord, to be certain that the bolts are not abrading it.
Another bad: if you buy a Verilux, you've committed yourself to their proprietary replacement bulbs. There are comparable fluorescent bulbs available at your local hardware store, but Verilux has designed plastic tabs into their products, simply to make the competing bulbs incompatible.

The new formula to include Black Cumin Seed Oil. Within a week of starting taking this new formula I ended up in urgent care who sent me right to ER. I had a lot of blood in my urine and not from any infection. The lab results also showed my kidney was in distress (BUN & Creatine were elevated - not in the normal range though a physical the month before showed them in the middle of the normal range). I take blood thinners and my INR reading was in my desired range.
In reviewing what had changed that might be causing the bleeding and doing some internet searches, I found out that Black Cumin Seed Oil, when taken by someone who is on NSAIDs or a blood thinner, can increase bleeding. I stopped this product that night and the bleeding was gone the next morning.
If you are not on blood thinners, taking this product will cause the same issues as being on blood thinners. The problems are severe and can include death from things you would not think twice of if you were not on blood thinners. This is why blood thinners are carefully monitored. So having internal bleeding going on without knowing - very dangerous!!!
If you are on blood thinners, this "increases" the effect significantly. Enough said, you know what that means.
I called the company thinking they would care about this information, that they would put a warning on their labels, etc.
Nope, no caring at all, just a lot of excuses and side stepping.
Their technical rep basically said they were not responsible for telling you this information above (or the other situations it is very harmful for, like pregnancy). He said:
They are fully aware their product is sold on Amazon and other locations (without these fact sheets), YOUR FAULT you bought it there.
Only Drs are supposed to be giving out/selling their products, the other people that sell it like the ones on Amazon are putting aliases on their forms (e.g. they never check if the person applying to sell their product is a Dr or not). He said the Drs who sell the product have access to fact sheets no one else sees, but when I asked if the fact sheet said taking with blood thinners / NSAIDs can cause bleeding, he avoided answering that question. To me, that means the answer is no, they are not telling their sellers this information.", "label": 0}

I have looked at various book lights from the two major producers: MightyBright and Zelco. Most current offerings by them are LED based lights. I have been less satisfied with these for a variety of reasons. I might have considered the incandescent itty bitty light from Zelco but many reviewers have warned of quality control issues. I have owned the Lightwedge but it is cumbersome to keep moving it and it scratches easily, leaving it unpleasant and annoying to use.
Design: The clamp/battery base holds 3 AA batteries. This may add bulk and weight (an advantage, see below) but this leads to a longer battery life. There is a convenient on/off switch on top the base. The bottom has two pieces that slide out to the sides to form a stable base so this light may be set on a table instead of only attached to a book. The base also has rubber feet to hold it in place. The extra batteries in the base give it the necessary support. The goose neck that holds the lamps comes out of the front not the top as in most other similar designs. This design allows you to move the light in a much broader way, nearer the book. The light itself is long and narrow which allows the light to cover an entire book with absolutely no hot spots. The illumination is even over the entire book. The quality of the light from the cold cathode tube is... perfect. Unlike LED lamps, it is very white but not too bright while it maintains true color palette.
Quality: Top notch. The base of the daylight24 is not at all flimsy like those made by its rivals. It has a high quality metal (yes, that's right, metal) toggle on off switch that is very unlikely to break. The quality of the goose neck, which is important to keep the light steady, is only approached by those on the Zelcos. However, it is the length of this one that sets it apart from them. This goose neck makes those on the MightyBrights seem like horrible toys. The light fixture appears to be a high quality plastic on top with protective glass covering the bulb.
Feature set: The daylight24 remarkably comes with an ac adaptor and batteries unlike most others. It has its own padded carrying pouch that has two compartments, one for the adaptor and one for the light.
Value: At $16 this light is a tremendous bargain. No other book light comes close.
I applaud the manufacturer for making this product and Amazon for making it so affordable. It, therefore, receives my highest rating and recommendation.", "label": 1}

Anyone who's struggled with these things knows that they can make a huge impact on your relationship. I discussed this with an herbal doctor I know and they recommended I look into trying a Yohimbine HCI supplement. I'm very accustomed to trying different herbal supplements, so I felt comfortable testing this one out. I typically order from BRI for my supplements, but a friend told me to try this one from Advanced Nutrition Labs- and so I did.
I have been taking this supplement for about a month and I am SO impressed with it thus far. It's definitely given me a much needed boost in energy and libido. I take the supplement as directed. For the first couple days I didn't see a significant change and I thought that perhaps this supplement wasn't what I was looking for. But my herbal nutritionist said that it often takes a while for herbs to take their full affect and that I should continue trying it. So I did, and within a week I definitely saw a lift in my mood and energy- as well as my sex drive.
Prior to taking this supplement I didn't even want to get out of bed. I was just stressed and anxious- which really affected m sleep. I had no energy at all throughout the day. Now, because I have more energy- I get much more done and then wear myself out through all of my activities, which allows me to sleep better at night. It's very similar to caffeine from coffee or tea. It allows me to wake-up and get going during the day, but I don't NEED coffee in order to do so. With this supplement I wake up and I feel awake. I don't need to rely on other energy sources to get me going, which is very nice.
The hike in my libido is the most life-changing part of this supplement though. The lack of energy was draining, but the fact that I didn't want to have sex made me feel guilty and upset with myself. Now, I feel back to my same ole' self. Nothing has changed about my 'stressers'. I still have the same busy things going on in my life; I just feel more capable of handling them because I have more energy. And my libido is back on track which eliminates a lot of the issues that were going on in the relationship. This supplement definitely worked for the things I needed it for, and I'm glad I tried it. I am now weaning myself off and doing well, but I'd recommend it to anyone who needs a short term energy or libido boost that works- naturally.", "label": 1}

My star rating system is as follows:
Five Stars: I loved this product and it worked out just the way I hoped it would. The product is attractive, well-packaged, and completes all of its described functions. This is a good quality product that is worth the cost.
Four Stars: I liked this product. It does what it is supposed to. The product is either slightly less quality than I would have hoped but works well for me, or it is good quality but just doesn't serve my functions ideally. This is still a good product, but I recommend you make sure it is exactly what you want before purchasing (size-wise, color, material, etc.)
Three Stars: This product is OK. It may be deficient in quality, size, or it may be inappropriately suited to my needs but still fully functional. A three star rating means it didn't live up to my expectations but I am still able to use it.
Two Stars: This is a fine product but it did not suit my needs. I give a product a two star rating when I can see its usefulness, but I simply cannot incorporate it into my life. This could be a drastically different size, color, or material, or just a poor quality item. Two star rating could also mean I'm able to use it, but I don't like it due to quality, aesthetics, or just my own tastes.
One Star: I really don't like this product and don't recommend it to anyone. This product is poor quality or completely different than what was described on the website.

I use flanged earplugs all the time when working with my power tools / guns and when this new-to-market product appeared in my Amazon Vine Reviewer list, I was able to order it at no cost to me in exchange for an honest and detailed review. It seemed like I could get that professional, customized earplug fit at a really low price. Nice!
Since everyone's ears are different, the concept of a moldable silicone plug seems ideal. The advertised noise reduction is reasonable at 20dB (ANSI), though not the best you can get compared with dedicated plugs, like the flanged Mack's at 26dB (noting that +3dB represents a doubling of noise, or in this case reduction).
The material is like putty. You can roll it in your hands to warm it up and shape it. Pull it and it tears apart.
You can remold it into one again with some more finger/hand work.
I followed the instructions and simply pressed a ball of the putty into my ear over the ear canal opening. There was some noise reduction, but I needed to work it a little more. While it molded to my ear, it didn't feel well-secured. I did some head shaking, jaw clenching and bending down and I felt it come away slightly at the rear. I decided to reduce the size of the ball and took the putty out, pulled a piece off, re-rolled it and pressed it back into place. It seemed to feel a little better. I tried working outside with the earplugs in place and it didn't take long for the heat and sweat to loosen the grip. I seemed to be constantly pressing the material back in place, which isn't practical with fingers covered in soil or grease or with gloves. With gloves, I found deposits of the putty were left on the glove fabric. I wouldn't be keen on using a plug more than once as it'll contain all sorts of junk I wouldn't want in my ears.
I'll be sticking with my better performing and retained flanged ear plugs, which I can rinse off, thank you very much!
I can see someone using these indoors, like the photos in the description shows; for sleeping (though they might leave stuff on your pillows!) or ignoring the noisy kids! Not so sure about swimming, but maybe? These are not for use outside IMHO or where you need positive retention. As a DIY'er, I actually see some other uses, like temporary hole plugging or cleaning debris off things as these are akin to an automotive clay bar! I wouldn't recommend them to anyone though, based on my experience, but you can try them for yourself, since they are actually only $7 for, I think, 16 plugs.", "label": 0}

Still couldn't be happier with this product. I just ordered my second tin (not yet done with my 1st) which will be delivered tomorrow. The oil is great for an after washing light moisturizer, but I love the balm as it not only heavily moisturizes, but also helps for styling and keeping fly away hairs under control.
I'm planning to shave my beard come late spring for my clean shaven loving partner, but I'm still planning to use this balm as a daily \"cologne\" around my neck due to the scent. I'm also looking forward to fall when I plan to regrow my beard :D this has also been great for dry cuticles over the winter!
Original review:
Heads up, same review for the oil and balm as I've been using them in tandem:
I ordered without any reviews... I couldn't be happier. This oil absorbs well and isnt greasy. I've been using it at night before bed to keep my beard from drying out at night (cold winters, low humidity, fine hair... it sucks). I've been pairing it with the code balm during the day to keep my beard soft, hydrated, and held in place when I brush it.
For the oil I've been using a cheap mustache comb that came with my trimmers, placing oil in the comb teeth and combing my beard from my neck forward to spread the oil followed by using a firm boar brush to work it into my skin from the neck forward.
For the balm I have been using a medium soft boar brush and scraping an end of the bristles lightly into the balm and brushing it into my beard from the face to the neck to style it.
I dont know if I'm doing this right, but I'm happy with the results. Both hydrate and absorb well and have a long lasting scent that, although the ingredient list makes one think of a \"darker\" or heavier smell, actually is light/bright smelling and would, in my opinion as a gay man, compliment any \"aqua\" scented style of cologne very well. All of the other brands I have tried I havent found anything that went well with my cologne (dunhill desire blue), but this does. I'm very happy with this purchase and plan to buy the oil and balm again in the future. I wish this scent came in the mustache wax as well, though I do like the scent of the fertile crescent wax.", "label": 1}

Taylor of Old Bond Street is my favorite brand of shaving cream at the moment. So far I like the Almond sent the best, but this one may be my 2nd choice. This shaving cream lathers easy and protects my face. I will buy this again. For those unsure how to lather, here is one method:
How I make a good lather: I did a bunch of research on how to create a good lather with a cream. After that research I found it was actually very easy. And this method works like a charm with this cream.
1) Prior to showering in the morning I run the sink to get the hottest water I can. I then fill a ceramic (non-white) bowl with hot water, then put the bowl in the sink and fill the sink to the top of the bowl. I then put my brush and razor in the bowl to soak while I shower.
2) After showering I pull the bowl from the sink (leaving water in sink) and dump the water from the bowl (back into the sink). I just pour out the bowl and do not dry it.
3) Shake your wet brush a few times to knock off the surface water. Just a few times will do it. When done you shouldn't have any visible drops on the outside of the brush.
4) Dip the brush into the tub of cream making contact and pressing down slightly. Then spin the brush 2 full rotations and remove from tub. A little goes a long way here. You can always add more if needed later. You should see a small amount of cream on the tips of all the hairs.
5) Swirl brush in bowl in one direction. I go clockwise. Perhaps those south of the equator would go counter clockwise :). Every 10th or so swirl pump the brush once or twice. Repeat until you get a good lather. If you don't start getting a good lather (to thin) in 30ish swirls, spin brush one more time in the cream tub and then continue swirling.
I've found this method to be foolproof and gives you a warm and wonderful cream. There is a possibility that you get too much cream versus water with this method. It hasn't happened to me, but if it does (super stiff or chunky) then just wet your fingers in the sink and sprinkle a little water in the bowl. It's likely that different types/quality of brushes could require more or less spinning in the bowl. You'll get the hang of how many times to spin and how hard to press after a few shaves. Remember when spinning the brush in the bowl less is really more.", "label": 1}

I have to say, in winter time, these warmers are fantastic. I don't like a house that's too warm (plus overheating the air just burns out all the moisture and you get electrocuted by static just moving around).
But when you're not moving, eg, watching teevee, reading, working on computers, etc., your feet can get rather cold. Mine especially, because once I'm home, I walk around barefooty.
So I've gotten a few warmers where I usually stay. By my computer desk, near the couch, and even at the foot of the bed when I'm reading or doing puzzles. They're loose and not constricting like socks, let me shift foot positions easily, and are warm even if not powered up.
So these latest warmers are just as fantastic as the others I have. It's double-sided so you get heat from both top and bottom, has a nice thermostat and timer to let you adjust the heat and time before it shuts off, and has nice heating that's even more even than the others. Plus, the grippy rubbery surface helps it \"stick\" to hard floors without sliding around, which is a really nice touch.
The control is very nice and easy to use, too. The dial twists around to set the temperature you want, from barely warm to scorching hot. Buttons are for on/off and to set the automatic timer. That's all there is to it... simple.
Being able to be easily washed is a must for me, because anything I have gets covered in cat-hair almost instantly, haha. And even the \"old fashioned\" way of sliding out the heaters and tossing the rest into the machine is sooooooo simple and easy. But convenience got easier by being able to toss the entire warmer into the wash!
All in all, I love these heaters, and will probably get more.
As mentioned, this new one is actually machine-washable. The older design was easy to remove the outer layer from the heating elements and wash the former while keeping the latter, but machine-washable design is even easier. Just pop the warmer into the washer, let it go, and out comes a spotlessly clean warmer with minimal muss or fuss.
Convenience increases, and I can wash off errant cat-hair so much more easily.
I've really gotten to like these warmers! :D", "label": 1}

I introduced this to my hubby along with two other things for his well being. I had tried previous probiotics before but this has seemed to work the best. Ok so here is his story.
He was SEVERELY ANEMIC like I mean they placed him on iron pills at a huge dose 3x daily that was seriously just pumping him full to attempt to fix the anemia, they started to give him tons of other meds, and he had so much in his system that more problems raised. They believed he was in fact bleeding internally. I finally got tired of it and I took him off of everything! No, I\u2019m not a doctor, no I don\u2019t advise anything, I\u2019m telling you what we did.
So I put him on Tumeric, a SMALL iron supplement then added these Power Pearl Probiotics. This FIXED my husband. His lab work (blood tests before these probiotics were put into his system) were showing SEVERE anemia, they had absolutely no idea why they\u2019re super doses of iron were not stopping it. I am so so so so ridiculously happy to share with you guys that my hubby, for the first time in over 2 years got his lab work back and at the top it read:
Lab Work Normal
Imagine our surprise! He had been feeling better, he didn\u2019t know if it\u2019d show. I will swear by these little macro power pearl probiotics! I thought it would improve everything, but I never thought we would get lab work back stating his levels were finally normal and somehow all of a sudden everything in his body went from about to be totally messed up to hey he looks great! I might add he also added in going to the chiropractor regularly and he too suggested he stay on the probiotics he\u2019s on!
For some reason anemia can be affected by your gut, you also have an issue with your red blood cells either not being produced or being destroyed. Some of these issues can be because of a B12 deficiency which by the way he had as well before these probiotics. They specifically ordered a B12 testing on my husband after the probiotics and he was normal this time! So, his massive doses of iron weren\u2019t helping and I turned to the natural medicine world and focused on the gut! He began treating the gut to treat the anemia and hey it worked. We all know that probiotics help build the immune system as well these little guys are over looked miracle workers! Acidophilus which is in the small intestine helps iron be absorbed easier. Boost those healthy probiotics and Acidophilus and bam that iron can finally be absorbed where there were problems before.

So, I\u2019m not entirely certain it has \u2018give\u2019 at all with just the weight of my head on it.
It\u2019s fairly compact measuring 8.5\u201dWx7.0\u201dDx4.75\u201dH so it\u2019s easy to store. It will even slide right under a bed assuming the bed is standard height or taller.
The materials look to be very durable so this device should have a long life. It is really easy to clean and disinfect due to the hardened feel of the material. It doesn\u2019t have an unpleasant odor. In fact, it just smells very lightly of rubber.
I wasn\u2019t impressed with the instructions but found a way to lay my neck over it that was comfortable enough anyway. I ordered this product with hopes that regular use, along with chiropractic and physical therapy, could help restore some of the natural curve back to my cervical spine as well as reduce pain due to herniated discs, pinched nerves, and chronic muscle spasms.
There\u2019s no special rubber bottom for traction on the floor but it seems to hold very well without it. It doesn\u2019t slip when I position my neck over it. I can\u2019t get my head to hang backwards over it like advertisement photos demonstrate due to my neck curvature issues, but that\u2019s the goal. I realize achieving the goal will take time and regular use so I wasn\u2019t unrealistically expecting immediate pain relief.
I also use the raised upper ledge of the device to roll the muscles across as a type of mini massage. It\u2019s also good for applying targeted pressure for trigger point therapy with the same technique of utilizing the raised areas.
It has not eliminated pain. I think that will be a long time coming, if ever, but it does help to reduce headaches for short periods of time with the trigger point work.

After years of using low-powered, less-expensive models, this is really like moving up to the big leagues (aka \u201ca salon\u201d). The unit feels very sturdily built, and its 2000 watts of power produce an amazingly strong air flow. One of my favorite features is the multiple combination of settings \u2014 cool, warm and hot air PLUS high and low airflow settings. (A lot of models in this price range have only cool, hot/high and hot/low, with no warm setting. To avoid over-drying my hair, I like the warm setting!) There is also a \u201ccool\u201d button which you can press at any time, but you have to keep it pressed, so I find it\u2019s much easier just to change the heat setting.
The concentrator attachment is fantastic. It stays firmly attached to the nozzle and can be adjusted to whatever angle works best for you; it really helps to focus the airflow exactly where you want it. I have short hair, so I\u2019ll probably never use the diffuser or the comb, but for the sake of thoroughness, I had a friend try test them, and the report was that both attachments were study and worked exactly as they should. The comb attachment dried long hair quickly and smoothly.
Another really nice feature is the removable filter. My old dryers didn\u2019t have that, so periodically I would have to clean all the hair and general airborne dust from the air-intake grate with a dry toothbrush. That\u2019s not the hardest chore in the world, but having a removable filter is so much more convenient, and it gets the filter much cleaner so there are fewer tiny dust particles blowing around.
The main reason I ordered this model was because I wanted to try out the ionic feature. I *think* it helps tame those annoying flyaway hairs a little bit, but to be honest, I don\u2019t think those negative ions live up to all the hype. Still, the dryer works incredibly well, so whatever small improvement the ionic feature might produce is icing on an already great cake.
One thing to keep in mind: this is not a small or lightweight hair dryer, so it might be a bit cumbersome or heavy for young kids or elderly folks. For everyone else, though, I think this dryer is an excellent choice, and the price ($49.99 at time of order) is quite reasonable compared to other brands with less power and fewer features.

4. The pistol does not fit my Glock 17 holster made by Comp-Tac. Slide is slightly too wide. Fits the
Comp-Tac Glock 9mm \"slide\" version the best.
5. Trigger doesn't have the safety (2 triggers) like actual Glocks (no big deal).
6. The grip doesn't feel Glockish without the Glock SIDE checkering. It is smooth with recessed words SIRT on it.
7. No detailed instructions came with the pistol. There is a PDF file you can download but I had to search for it.
I immediately changed out the sights with factory ones. The rear sight on the SIRT can be pushed out with your fingers and the factory sights slid on the same way. NO TOOL or VISE is needed. May need glue to secure.
For the front sight replacement, you have to remove the top red slide by pushing out the 2 pins that hold the slide on. The front sight is glued on. There is NO NUT to unscrew. There is only hard RTV you have to scrape off on the underside then gently tap the sight out. Now you can install the factory Glock front sight with the small nut that comes with it. You can easily tighten the nut with a small needle nose pliers. YOU DO NOT NEED A GLOCK FRONT SIGHT TOOL. You only need the nut snug as there is no recoil. The nut has a self locking feature and won't back off. That's all there is to it!
Before you purchase this training pistol, read the \"Customer Questions & Answers\" below the Amazon reviews. You will see other customers as well as my questions and answers I posted earlier.
Bottom line... I really like this trainer pistol and wish the manufacturer would address the issues I noted above. Price is kind of steep to recommend to others. Maybe a cheaper version with the metal slide and only a red laser is in order?", "label": 1}

I\u2019ve been taking probiotic supplements daily for many years, so I can\u2019t truly say that I\u2019ve noticed any additional functional benefits from taking this brand over the other brands. However, I think this is a really great product for all of the above listed \u201cPros.\u201d Not all brands also include prebiotics, and I think this is an important addition to probiotic supplementation. I love the small spherical pills, as the only other brands I have tried either come in larger capsule/powder or gummy form (tasty but more expensive, and lots of added sugars). I also love the smaller serving size for maintenance, as the previous brands I have used usually call for 3 per day (powder capsules) or 2 per day (gummies). The smaller "pearl" shaped pills are also a nice feature, for easy swallowing. For some reason I imagined a soft-gel type pearl, however, these are more of a hard round tablet. This brand is also a fair price, comparatively. Currently retailing on Amazon at just under $22 for a 2-month supply, compared to the $26 for a 2-month supply of the Probiotic Gummies I was previously taking. However, the powdered capsule brand I used to buy is as low as $7.19 for 200 pills. Regarding the probiotic content, this brand contains 5 billion per pearl at time of manufacture. I\u2019ve seen this number as low as 500 million, to as high as 50 billion with other brands.

I tried other tinctures and tea products in the past but like the idea of a pill for ease of use and transport. My liver toxicity issues usually involve (1) feeling sluggish, (2) I learned this from reading the product details: perfume/chemical sensitivity are also signs of liver toxicity. I work with the public and certain \u2018perfumes\u2019 can make me nauseous or give me a headache, lastly (3) I\u2019ve eliminated pollen allergy symptoms with past detoxes and began to experience the nightly tossing, fatigue & itching eyes earlier this spring. I\u2019m due for a liver detox, I am very in tuned with my body and I know I needed to get back to normal. With every liver detox I can tell within the first seven days if there is progress, because my energy increases, which I can tell by how I wake up in the morning without hitting snooze three to four times.
I planned to start the Liver Detox on the weekend, since detoxing can produce a few undesirable side effects including any Herxheimmer reactions. I missed my first two days because I kept forgetting to take the pills 20-30 minutes before a meal.
I did receive this product for free, however it was a perfect circumstance for me to review, since it\u2019s something I would normally purchase. NusaPure Liver Detox and Support has Milk Thistle, Zinc, Selenium, Turmeric, which are all great for detoxing and fortifying the liver, which is \u2018our body\u2019s cleaning machine\u2019. They are also a GMP company (Good Manufacturing Practices) and Made in the USA. I\u2019m a strong believer in supporting industry where I live and companies with integrity. You can check out the rest of the ingredients from the photos below.
Day 1-3: out of 30, I already notice some great results. You cannot do a liver detox (or any detox) with a polluted/impacted colon. With NasaPure\u2019s liver detox, my colon is also getting a clean sweep, if you know what I mean, not too much just right.
Day 4 & 5: I was walking behind someone wearing way too much perfume and I did not get a headache or nauseous, that is major for me.
Day 6: Today I woke up less sluggish, and I was moving around faster than before I started the Liver Detox pills. Buy this! You\u2019ll really appreciate this well, thought out, high quality product, its results and manufacturing integrity.", "label": 1}

Wouldn't want them to be scratched or my new pair. Was going to get the metal one and shrink tube it. Might do that still but worry about the paint burning. The other thing I worry about some is scratching the \"gun metal\" black paint off of it. Got it painted thinking it wouldn't scratch my glasses as much but not sure if this is going to be the case. Gun metal when the term is used, is usually a form of dark grey. My glasses were this color. This is like a flat black.
As for the quality, the paint had a paint burr which I didn't like to see (bottom of magnet piece-right). Broke off easily however. It is a wonder how these people put this business together. Watched on the shark tank and then had my glasses almost once fall again out of my pocket, when bending over, then said, I should get that device. The other small defect is a small bump under the paint where the magnet part is but on the bent piece (flat circle). I assume a piece of metal or maybe dirt then painted over. Also the back of the clip isn't really painted. Has like an over spray paint effect. The back plate is not painted at all which is fine.
The magnets are very strong. I am amazed how it snaps together. Pulling it apart is easy with the grip of the bended part. I don't know if such a force is good for your body or not. Any health risks? You do or are supposed to have iron in your blood I don't know if it would collect there or turn you magnetic or what. Is such a charge healthy for you? Some people wear other devices for a healing effect. So who knows.
Also a concern is will this thing erase or corrupt the data of my credit cards, or flash drives? Also if near anything such as a laptop will it cause anything to be/become a magnet?
Curious what type of glue is on there. Seems pretty strong. Is it an epoxy? This guy took 5k for a patent and turned it into millions.
Totally amazed by this process of being in business for yourself. Gave away 65% I think. However Lorry made it a quick success.
Once people have so many patents though who can create a business without owing it to someone else, or not being able to do it? Curious how he found the patent that was already in place.
I thought of another thing as well. Maybe for a tie clip this would work too. The common tie clips either put a new hole in your tie or snag it with teeth.", "label": 1}

I decided to use it right away because I'm starting a new yoga class tomorrow and wanted my mat to be fresh and clean since I can't recall the last time I've cleaned it, and it's also been a whole since I've used it. (Yikes. Lol)
I received my Asutra spray quickly, within the two day Prime window as promised. I noticed coming out of the package there was a faint scent, but the bottle didn't seem to be leaking. Probably just got jostled in transit.
After reading the label, I decided to go with the deep-cleaning option. Also, after seeing that other reviewers used a white towel on their first cleaning, I decided to try the same. Wow, I was impressed with the results.
So here's my take:
I shook up the bottle, as directed. I thoroughly sprayed down the \"up\" side of my mat, the side I usually face. It took a pretty decent amount of product to make sure the mat was covered, but not soaking wet. I let it sit for a few minutes (instead of just the recommended two, because I was doing other chores) and then took a damp, wet, cotton towel to the mat. I folded it in half, and rubbed in circles, starting at one end of the mat, and working my way to the other end. After the \"up\" side air dried, I flipped it over to clean the \"bottom,\" the side that usually touches the floor, and repeated the process. I have not yet used the blue micro fiber cloth that came with it, but will likely carry that with me in my tote to clean after sessions.
Here are some pros:
\u2022Pleasant, lightweight, quickly dissipating scent. I ordered the \"uplifting eucalyptus,\" because I'm lavender-ed out. Lol
\u2022The product is very lightweight, and did not leave any obvious residue on the mat, nor my hands. It didn't feel oily, and I didn't notice.
\u2022After cleaning, my mat looked so fresh and so much better, and no longer looked dingy and old.
\u2022I received my order in a timely manner, in new condition, and it was accurate.
Some cons:
\u2022None, really. I did notice that if you don't shake the bottle well enough, the spritzer kind of \"spits\" droplets out, instead of a perfect mist, but this was easily and immediately remedied by shaking the bottle again. This would be the case with any bottle of this type.
\u2022I read in other reviews that they experienced residue on their mats upon first using it after cleaning with this product. If I experience that, I'll be sure to update my review to include details.
Overall, I am pleased and would recommend this product!", "label": 1}

After being chosen to review it I began looking into the description listed here on amazon. I figured for the price you really cant beat the amount of stuff you get. I could not believe how much stuff you got. EVERYTHING you will ever need to start is in this kit. I purchased and had it in two days thanks to amazon prime. Once delivered I was overwhelmed with what it came with. I just kept pulling more and more items from the box. Nothing was cheap everything was made with high quality materials, not cheap plastics. I was presently surprised that all of the needles, heads etc, came sealed in medical grade packaging. When I plugged in the machine to the power supply and added the pedal it started immediately. The needle moved smoothly and did not vibrate in my hand too much. With a small adjustment the tattoo machine was up and running perfectly in my hand. There is no way you can buy a machine for this price especially compared to all the equipment you are getting here! The machines are solid, the inks are vibrant in color, the cups, cup holders are awesome and the needles and shaders look to be made with quality materials. The reason for the 4 out of 5 stars is because when I first opened the product from its packaging there was a very, very strong chemical smell, After unpacking the kit and letting it air out it did dissipate quite quickly. Look out world you got a new tattoo artist coming your way, and you have Redscorpion Tattoo Kits to thank!! I got to go because I have some practicing to do on the "practice skin" that was also included in my kit...

The dirt tank is so small that you will be emptying it constantly. I have to disassemble the brushes at least three times during one cycle. IT DOES NOT WORK ON CARPET! I have low pile carpet in my living room and it gets stuck and starts beeping and flashing every time. I can only use this in two rooms, my dining room and my kitchen and both rooms have hard floors with no rugs or carpeting. This machine can not even handle those. Neither room is large. My dining room is only big enough to hold the 48" table and 4 dining chairs that are in it and my kitchen isn't even six feet wide. I have to move the chairs out of the room so that the vacuum will go under the table otherwise it just keeps banging into the same chair. The vacuum ignores the invisible wall that came with it; it goes into the living room even though the invisible wall is there to stop it. It doesn't matter if I put fresh batteries or if there are old batteries in the invisible wall. Yes, I have it facing the right way. Yes, I have dogs. However, I have to go through the two rooms and pick up any large pieces of dog hair and all pieces of dog food before I can run the vacuum. The app is a joke. It offers the ability to set a schedule so that the vacuum will run automatically, but that doesn't work. I set it up to run at 12:00 PM everyday, but it only worked once. You're supposed to be able to start and dock the vacuum with the app, but those features don't work, either. Honestly, it's faster if I just do the floors myself than if I let this thing run. I am so sorry I wasted my hard earned money on this vacuum. There were so many other things I could have done with it, but I thought it would save me time while I chased my toddler around the house.

I do have other compression socks that I have purchased previously through Amazon and from my Pharmacy. They don't breathe. My legs feel like they are being strangled (you have to wear them to notice). They make my legs itch. I have to remove them half way through the day. Sometimes they do not do the job they were designed for so my legs are compressed but my toes look like ten pudgy little cartoons toes and which are about to pop. First of all, I have never seen one designed the way this one is. I wanted to give it a whirl. The ones I received looked just like this picture.
These graduated compression socks are well designed. They are easy to put on and remove. They breathe when you wear them. I put them on at 6:30 a.m. and removed them at about 7:30 p.m. they were comfortable throughout the day. I did not feel the need to scratch or remove them. When I move the socks stayed and move with me. They didn't slide down my legs or moved around. The paddings on the sole of my feet felt comfortable and light. I can feel the pressure on my ankles which helps to keep my ankle steady. It does not work as an ankle brace. I am sure adding an ankle brace would increase their effectiveness, especially with a fused ankle. However, these socks will do in a pinch if I don't have access to the extra support provided by the brace.
I ordered the large size which is the men's ten and a half to eleven and a half. Usually, I am not very comfortable with women compression socks. This is just my opinion I prefer the men's compression socks they worked much better for me and are more comfortable. I want to wear a pair of compression socks and feel I can dance all day (which I don't). Anyone interested in purchasing a graduated compression should look into the Kunto Fitness Compression Socks by Kunto Fitness Product. They do have ankle and elbow support I was more interested in the compression socks. Summer is approaching and it is usually hard for me to tolerate any compression socks. The day I wore the new ones it was seventy-eight-degree Farenheight and the socks felt comfortable with perfect support and yes air circulation was great and adaptable. I am attaching a couple of pictures hopefully they will open so you can take a look at the design.

After the chiropractor adjusted my cervical bones, he suggested that a neck traction device might be helpful for keeping the discs from being compressed and causing more pain. I researched dozens of neck traction devices--including ones that you hang over a door or bed and other, more expensive and complicated options. This seemed like the best value, most highly rated and easiest to use.
It really is simple to use. This comes with three pieces: an inflatable neck brace, a bulb and valve to blow it up, and a carrying bag. You attach the bulb to the tubing on the brace. Wrap the brace around your neck and fasten it in place, using the two Velcro straps. Then use the bulb to blow up the three sections to the desired height. Once you reach a comfortable level of inflation, there's a little bee-bee inside the tubing that you use to close off the hose.
The manufacturer advises using this for about 15 minutes or so, a few times a day, to start with. However, I was traveling about the time I was experiencing so much pain. I found that, by wearing this neck brace while driving, it made going over bumps on the road less jarring and painful. I actually wore it for several hours at a time this way. With the ball and valve, I could adjust the pressure up or down, as I experienced a change in altitude. It was easy to take off and put back on, whenever I stopped for food, fuel, etc.
I also find this device helpful when reading or working on the computer to keep from bending my neck forward and causing pain. I do NOT use it for sleeping, however!
The three inflatable chambers are covered with a soft, velveteen material that makes them quite comfortable to wear. It can get a bit hot, if the weather is warm and you wear it a long time. I recommend that you not only use this to take the pressure off your neck vertebrae, but also do some stretches to strengthen your neck muscles and consciously correct your posture to keep from slumping. When the device is not in use, you can simply set it aside, or deflate and store it in its drawstring pouch.

I'm not one to buy gimmick products, so I wasn't sure. I kept reading about the deep kneading foot action and relaxing it was, so I finally decided to order the massager. I hoped it was as good as it sounded.
Hallelujah. I really love this machine. It's super easy to use, and my feet are still tingling (in a good way) after 10 minutes and a little TV.
This is ready out of the box. You just get the power cord out and plug it in the side of the foot massager and then into a socket. There is a booklet, but I don't think I really needed it. All the buttons were labeled. There are two auto modes which may not be as obvious just looking.
There is a setting for time, and they recommend not over 10 minutes to start with and a max of 30 minutes. I am doing 10 minutes right now, since it's hard to squeeze in "me" time. The Shiatsu is Japanese and is a type of deep tissue massage. I love that. There is air pressure as well so that the Shiatsu is stronger with the air expansion and not as strong as it cycles. There is a setting for heat, but this is summer in NC, so I have not used the heat button. The pamphlet does say it may 10 minutes or so to warm up. The center button will shut the machine off if you set it too high for comfort or need to get up to do something.
I wish they had a full body model or at least one for the back and legs. The massage feels wonderful on my feet. You may notice the big scar on my leg which is a skin graft. While you aren't supposed to use the massager if you have a foot injury, my injury was higher and healed now. The massaging does make my leg feel better too. That was just a bonus for me.
I wear socks in my Shiatsu machine, but the foot parts come out with zippers and can be washed. I figure I'll not need to wash the feet parts (which fit women size 14 and men to size 12) very often with putting on clean socks right before using.
I did get a discount on the Shiatsu Deep Kneading Foot Massager in exchange for an honest review which is the only kind I write. I took quite a while to make the leap and get the massager, and now I'm wondering why I didn't get it straight away.

The photo is of the Echo PB-500H which as a separate left hand throttle control grip while the PB-500T has the throttle grip on the blower tube handle with no handle/control on the left. The PB-500T makes a lot more sense since it leaves your left hand free.
I've only broke in/used my PB-500T for a couple hours and seems to work well. Only time will tell and hope I don't have the long-term use problems others mentioned.
The "cruise control" button for setting it on high seems to back off by itself which is a pain to keep moving it to the high setting again. Seems to have good power but doesn't have the anti-vibration you may get with a Stihil $500 backpack blower. But there again the vibration is mainly through the handle so a Stihl may be the same.
It's a shame Echo doesn't offer a curved blower tube extension to lengthen the tube while blowing leaves/grass away instead of almost straight down. Even with new power tools I alter them to fit my needs and make them more comfortable. I took the 30 degree curved extension tube end off of my old Homelite backpack blower and taped it to the end of the Echo tube which works a whole lot better. I'll probably also use good black electrical tape (Scotch 33) to tape a piece of 3/4" ID water pipe insulation foam to the handle to cut down on the vibration coming through the handle itself. I do this same foam install on my string-trimmers handles and don't need my nerves tingling or carpel tunnel.
Since I live in the woods I blow tons of leaves. Used the Echo blower to blow the leaves off my 800' steep/curvy gravel drive and part of my yard. Nice to have the curved blower tube extension tip on the end since it doesn't blow the gravel off of the drive like a straight one would.
I did use half a can of the TruFuel 50:1 mix and then used a good 50:1 2-cycle mix for topping the tank off. At about $20-$25/gal there is no way I'm going to use the TruFuel mix full time. Too bad I can't find any non-ethanol gas stations around here, E10 is bad enough, and don't ever use E15 fuel or you'll burn up the engine.

1. If you're patching a carpet that's glued down to a concrete floor, take it easy when cutting out the bad part with this tool. Getting too aggressive will break the blades and the center point. I did that.
2. If you do break the blades there are two spares in the kit. If you break the point just file or grind a new point on it. It's adjustable in height so this fix will work OK.
3. The instructions and product description seem to say that the glue circles are sticky on both sides. They're not. This is apparently because the adhesive originally used would not stick all that well to the carpet. Instead, the circle now is sticky on just one side. This should be used to stick the circle to the sub floor, concrete, or whatever. After the circle is stuck to the floor spread some of the seam sealer adhesive on the top of it (brown paper side) and then place the patch. The sealer will stick the carpet patch to the brown paper.
4. The instructions say to wet the sticky side of the circle after peeling off the protective white sheet then work the circle under the edge of the carpet that is left after cutting out the damaged piece. This is pretty nearly impossible, at least on a glued down carpet. What I did, instead, was cut the circle into quarters yielding four pie shapes (before peeling off the white protective paper. This allows you to work each piece under the edge of the carpet placing the pointed end at the center of the cut out circle. Then do the same for each of the remaining sectors, aligning them against the previous one with their points together (re-assemble the pie). Wetting the adhesive is quite important because it is pretty aggressive stuff and you'll have a heck of a time placing it if you don't wet it first.
5. One more thing. If you're working with a glued down carpet be sure to work a putty knife, etc. under the edge of the carpet that remains after cutting out the damaged area, to allow enough space to slide the sticky circle under the edge. Then, after the adhesive circle is in place and before placing the carpet patch in the hole, spread a little of the seam sealer between the top of the adhesive circle and the bottom of the remaining carpet to glue it back down. Then spread a small bead of sealer along the edge of the remaining carpet and spread some on the brown paper side of the adhesive circle that you stuck down as pieces of pie. Then you can insert the patch and finish as in the instructions.
It makes a pretty nearly invisible patch.", "label": 1}

Everyone wants to try sitting on the seat! Everyone says it's classy!
I am 5.2, weigh 120. This is my first rollator. I figured if I bought a really good one it could handle what I deal with. Rollator width looks as if it won't go through narrow house doors, but that was an optical illusion. Folds instantly by pulling a handle upward. Press handle downward to unfold. It will stand upright folded and an attached cord, very simple, keeps it folded. Photo shows it folded. Fits nicely in the car trunk if its chunky black wheels are all aligned and there's nothing else in the trunk.
Easy to raise and lower the handlebars. I like mine high so I can walk upright.
Took it for a spin on dusty gravel. Worked fine, and I hosed the dust off later. Excellent brakes and I love having no visible brake cables. Designed in Canada, assembled in USA. Mail your invoice with the registration card (to Canada) and in addition to the warrantees the manufacturer insures it (less $50) against theft or vandalism.
Included is a red metal pin that fits alongside one wheel, plus the bolt needed to install it. This step-on \"curb climber\" installed makes all the difference in the world. I didn't have the necessary socket wrench with the size 13 socket so had to buy them at the hardware store: $27. Maybe you can borrow one.
I called it \"my rollator\" and \"the thing\" until I realized it needed a name. I named it Bolt.
Took The Bolt to the art museum. Wonderful to be able to sit and look at paintings. Or sit beneath trees outside. One always has a seat.
My condition is called Primary Orthostatic Tremor. I walk and sit just fine, but cannot stay standing. Legs just shake, then fail. It looks like Angela Merkel has the same. Canes are useless to me. I needed a portable seat. Didn't want a cheap one or one with basket underneath that makes you look like you're sitting on a commode. Not a good look. The basket on this is placed forward. Wanted a seat high enough to sit at a dining table and so people didn't have to lean down to talk with me, so I bought the Regular size rather than Petite.

I'm surprised people ordered this and then seemed surprised that a spa steamer gets hot. That's kind of the whole point and there really isn't a way around this in terms of thermodynamics. To create a productive steam, hot water is required.
Now that we got that out of the way, you can touch the plastic container when at boiling, and it will not burn. Sure, it feels hot, but not \"burning\" hot. Furthermore, this does not appear easy to knock over because the components of the body are metal and the base is a decent weight (these are not cheap plastic parts).
USE APPLICATION: This amplifies the depth that skin creams penetrate. I cannot stress this enough. I learned this years ago when I accidentally gave myself a \"peel\" by applying everyday Retin-A right after a long/hot sauna. I use Retin-A daily and don't peel, but when COMBINED with a good steam... BLAM! With steam, the Retin-A packs a punch. The peeling creeps up a few days later as massive facial \"dandruff\" (during these times, wearing black is a very bad idea, unless you like the appearance of SNOW on your clothing).
This puts out an excellent amount of steam and pretty quickly. In about 3 or 4 minutes, it was steaming on full blast. Since I'm just treating myself, I only filled it 1/4 way and that was plenty. The head of this turns, so you can lay in one place and get your face, neck and chest without moving the machine at the base.
I'm not studied on the use of \"ozone\" for facials. And, after some internet research, this concept is still not clear. It seems that the ozone function on this machine accelerates the output of steam. So this would lead me to believe that this ozone function might input some ions or salt/sodium type accelerator for steam. However, I don't even faintly detect a salt like taste or residue. So that remains a mystery.
NOTE: Use distilled water. Hard water is likely to clog this over time.

Use it in the living area during the day and bedroom at night. I have noticed much less dust accumulation on my furniture. I don't wake up with nasal congestion anymore. I checked the filter a few days ago and it had some dust in it. I also compared filter color to a new filter that I had purchased to have on hand when it is time to replace the original one. The unused filter is whiter than the one currently in the machine. I am assuming it is doing what it is meant to do. The only issue I have is I have noticed that the fan speed changes sometimes on its own. Perhaps it has a sensor for air quality. However I haven't read that this particular model the Cayman 608 has that capability. So far I am happy with the purchase.
I have noticed that some of the reviews are unhappy with the space that is advertised that the air purifier cleans. The specifications state under air changes per hour (circulates air 2x in rooms of 578 sq. ft/ 5x in rooms of 231 sq ft. It appears that air is being purified in rooms close to 600 sq.ft just not at the faster rate.

The filter replacement blinking light just came on today. I purchased this air purifier in March of this year 2022. It has been running on high non stop and today is August 8, 2022. I have cleaned filter almost weekly to removed dust that had accumulated.. I have kept the purifier in my bedroom all summer with the A/C on and door closed. I honestly believe that it has kept dust to a minimal. I have almost no nasal congestion when I wake up in the morning, and far less dust on furniture in my room. I have no way to judge whether it is cleaning bacteria and virsus from the air but I haven't had any illnesses. I really like the simplicity of the product. I have noticed that the machine does change speed occasionally by itself but I don't have an issue with this. I just turn it back on high when I notice this happening. I noticed that it is out of stock on Amazon. I hope it comes back as I would like to purchase another one for other areas in my home. I guess I better order another filter to have on hand in another 6 months or so! Haven't checked to see if filter is available, I hope so!!

Solution 1: Canker sores (ulcers inside the mouth)
Solution 2: Constipation
Details:
I learned by experience many years ago that not all Probiotics or Acidolpholis products are created equal. I tried the refrigerated type that are suppose to be best ... Nothing!
Ever since my husband was a small child and forever after, he gets canker sores inside his mouth if he accidentally eats walnuts in baked goods, old nuts, or too many tomatoes or too much tomato sauce. These are ulcers and are extremely painful taking about 2-1/2 to 3 weeks to go away! They appear on the inside of the cheeks, inside of the lower lip, or sides of the tongue. Doctors have never helped. Fortunately, I learned about acidophilus for this many years ago, and this is when we figured many of the products don't work. However, freeze-dried is best.
The brand we used was discontinued years ago. I found Ultimate 10 Probiotics and figured the additional ingredients would provide extra benefits. Well, they work even better. If he takes them when he starts getting the ulcers, they are gone in 3 days!
Now for the other problem it solved. I have had severe constipation problems since I was a toddler. When I say severe, I'm not exaggerating. I'm 64 now and found Mag 07 several months ago that saved me from the constant misery and I'll health. I reviewed it in Amazon. Problem was that it relieved the problem, but didn't correct the cause. After seeing the Activity yogurt commercial, I got to thinking. I can't eat yogurt, but maybe those Ultimate 10 Probiotics in the frig would do the same thing. Well, what do you know, they work! Within only 2 days, I started becoming regular. Now I'm completely regular. I take one every day with my dinner. For years the answer was waiting for me to figure it out!
By the way, they don't have to be refrigerated, but I do anyway. I ordered this small size in error, but it is a good trial size if you want to try it. The 90-day supply is much more economical.

It doesn't reach the sides or front of my office chair, meaning it digs into the sides of my legs and the back of my thighs above the knees.
It's making my hip and thigh pain (some of which is related to the piriformis compression) worse. I tried wrapping a towel around the edges to create an even surface that covers my chair seat, but for the money, I'm not happy I have to do this, and it didn't really help.
Also, it doesn't stay put in my chair. After a few minutes of sitting here, without even changing position, it has slid forward, leaving a gap under my tailbone. Sigh.
I'm a small woman with a curvy backside--not tiny but not huge either. I can't imagine this working for a large man who needs it for something like a truck seat. It certainly wouldn't even cover my car seat. Was this designed by really thin people?
I don't get all the rave reviews, and I don't understand why no one can seem to make one of these cushions that actually covers an entire seat. It's no good spending the money for a better quality material when the dimensions of the cushion are inadequate. Purple, if you're listening, think about making an entire office chair, with this material integrated into the seat.
Something else I didn't think about--not the fault of the cushion but worth considering if you're short (5'3\" or under). The cushion adds about 2 inches of height to my padded office chair. Now my feet barely sit flat on the floor, even with my seat adjusted to the lowest level. That's exacerbating the digging effect on my legs, as I have the cushion digging in on one spot and the back of my chair digging in a few inches further. I can't lower my seat any to relieve the pressure on the back of my thighs. So, now I have to get a footstool for under my feet? No.
I'm updating this review and subtracting stars because after a weekend of trying this cushion for a few hours at a stretch here and there, trying to give it the benefit of the doubt, my pain is worse than ever.

My nips were sore for weeks after, I wasn\u2019t expressing as much milk as my LO needed, and I was so distraught. It took a couple weeks of experimenting, but these have been so wonderful! Pros/cons/tips:
Pros:
- I like that they came in a set cuz I do use diff sizes sometimes. 90% of the time it\u2019s the blue XS ones, but it took a couple weeks to settle on that size.
- The silicone (S & XS) is a lot nicer than the rigid plastic IMO
- The downward angle means less pooling around the breast, so I don\u2019t need to \u201cscrape\u201d the flange up at the end to ensure I get all the milk. I also think it better replicates the angle LO nurses from, which my breasts are used to, but this may be feeling vs fact.
Cons (reflected in Clean & Use stars):
- It took a couple weeks of trying sizes to settle on the XS\u2014evaluating comfort at EOD/EOW and average milk expression.
- It took a couple weeks to get the hang of centering them well\u2014and it still takes a couple tries
- The additional collar pieces for the silicone flanges are unfortunate. 2 more pieces to clean and keep track of! :( And they trap milk between collar and the Medela tubing/bottle/flange connector piece. I wish the silicone was simply thicker at the end.
- I do wish they were sold as 1-offs cuz I\u2019d buy additional XS ones for home
Tips:
- Takes a bit of practice to get the hang of folding back the silicone to get the nipple both in the \u201ctunnel\u201d and centered well. Keep practicing!
- My IBCLC always made a big point of not letting the nipple rub the flange sides, so when this happened with the XS ones I worried. But again, after experimenting for a couple weeks, I found that the rubbing didn\u2019t bother them at all! After a little condensation and milk gets in there there\u2019s sufficient lubrication. YMMV here, but it\u2019s working for me. (To be clear: the nipples still move freely, but they rub a bit at full suction/extension. If the flange isn\u2019t centered it compresses the nipple and it doesn\u2019t move freely, which isn\u2019t what I\u2019m describing here.)
- I haven\u2019t had any issues with massaging my breasts and pumping with these at the same time. (There was another reviewer who had issues with this and I was worried about it.)

I use it for making my own e-liquid (heretofore referred to simply as juice) and I couldn't ask for a better product. It's much less expensive than buying from a B&M vape shop (if they'll even sell it to you) or an online vape shop. I quit smoking cigarettes back in 2012 after I bought a cig-a-like from 7-11, it didn't produce much vapor, but it got me off the tobacco. I vape a lot and I've gone through a liter of VG every 3-4 months for use in my juice and that's only for my personal use. This VG is clear, slightly sweet, and highly viscous compared to propolyne glycol (PG), the other main component of most juices. PG is closer in viscosity to water, therefore it is used to thin out the mixture of your juice and give it more throat hit (TH makes juice comparable to a real cigarette). I personally don't use any PG in my e-liquid, because I don't care for any throat hit, I prefer a max VG juice because it's the ingredient that produces lots of vapor. If you are a vaper thinking of making your own juice I wouldn't hesitate to start because you'll save a lot of money and you can learn to make flavors that are specific to your preferred needs and taste. If you consider the low price of this VG, around $13.00 for a liter, plus the cost of flavoring, (and another necessary ingredient which is highly addictive), you'll be at about \u00a235 for a 30ml bottle. Compare that to how much you pay for high quality (high percentage VG usually 80%) juice from a vape shop which on average is about $22.00 for 30ml bottle, and you'll see the savings on juice alone. Vaping is not cheap. Not for me anyway, however using products like this VG will definitely help you keep more money in your wallet and you'll feel the health benefits from quitting smoking \ud83d\udeac.

I am sure there could be other reasons for this but let me assure you that a robust immune system is not one of them! :)
Some people complain about these units.. saying there is low airflow through them. I'll let you in on a little secret.. it takes some time in contact with light to kill germs in the air. If the air moved too fast the germs would not have enough contact time with the light to die. Put the unit in an area where the air moves around it. Perhaps near a door or in a room with a ceiling fan that normally runs. If you put it in the corner of a room with dead air.. its going to purify the heck out of that corner.. :)
I placed the unit on a kill-a-watt meter tonight and it registered a constant draw of 9 watts. Thats pretty great as far as air purifiers are concerned. I have electronics that draw more than that when they are off. Costco has them 2 for $67 and Lowes has them for $39 ea (then you find one of the MANY coupons for Lowes like $10 off a $25 purchase.. exc).
The technology behind the units is a little questionable and I was not able to find links to the documented evidence of their effectiveness. They claim Harvard did test this product.. hope thats true but I would like to see the source of that claim posted somewhere. UV-C bulbs have been around for a long time, but for some reason they are just now showing up in this kind of a product with no real description as to why that is.
The bulbs only last one year and I cant find replacements locally (yet) so minus one star for that.. otherwise.. good job. Hope its for real. I went back to Lowes today to get another one and they were sold out.
UPDATE: Year and a half later, first bulb replacement (should have been done at the one year mark.. I guess).

First off, I should mention that just about all flavors of toothpaste (e.g., mint or cinnamon) have always made my mouth \"burn\". There are very few brands / flavors that I find at all comfortable to use.
I had been using this company's toothpaste for years and really liked it till they added the nano silver. (They simultaneously made the wintergreen stronger, leaving lemon as the only flavor that didn't hurt my mouth.) After reading up on nano silver, I decided that since it's a fairly new additive and is now being added to quite a variety of products, I'd rather wait and see whether \"they\" find that it causes problems down the line. So I switched to the powder.
The jar is surprisingly small (compared to how it looks on my laptop), only 2-1/4 \" in diameter -- but that means it fits very nicely in my medicine cabinet. Besides, it's sold by net weight, not by the size of the jar! At the three-week mark, I've used nearly half the jar, so I estimate it'll last 6 to 8 weeks.
I like spearmint flavor in moderation, and several reviews said this product has a mild flavor, so that's what I ordered. I wasn't sure I'd like it unsweetened, but it's nice -- like chewing on a mint leaf (rather than mint chewing gum). It does burn just a little, but far less than the vast majority of toothpastes. I may try the citrus flavor next, or could try mixing the two.
One review said that dipping a wet toothbrush into the powder was fine at first, but eventually made the powder get all clumpy. Also, I found that dipping my wet brush into the jar picks up more powder than necessary, so I give my toothbrush a shake after wetting it, before dipping it, and I put a tiny bit of water in my mouth. With the right water-to-powder ratio, it's pretty much like brushing with paste.
Another review mentioned needing to brush again with just water after rinsing, in order to get all the powder off their teeth. I suspect that they were using it like scouring powder, rather than using enough water to make a soft paste. Just a regular rinse works fine for me.
I've been using the powder for three weeks now, and so far I like it just fine -- though I still wish they hadn't added the nano silver to the paste, which I find a bit easier to use. On the other hand, the jar is recyclable and the tube isn't. And I should easily be able to get every last bit of powder out of the jar.", "label": 1}

I appreciated that I could set the cupcake liners directly on top of a cookie sheet and didn't need to dig out my cupcake pan from the back of the cupboard. They were easy to fill and the brownie batter leveled itself without issue.
I am extremely pleased to report that there was absolutely No Difference in the taste or the amount of time it took to bake them using these adorable Silicone Liners. They baked evenly and tasted delicious!
As I had expected, there was some brownie residue left inside the cupcake liners, but no more so than if I had used paper liners.
For the most part, my brownies came out of the liners unscathed and I was able to proudly share them with my neighbors.
What really surprised me was how easy they were to clean by hand!
I do not own a dishwasher and was especially concerned that it would be next to impossible to completely remove the sticky brownie residue from the tiny grooves inside the liners.
I was delighted to find that I could turn these sturdy, but flexible silicone liners inside out without damaging them and after soaking them in some hot soapy water for a few minutes, they were quickly restored to like new condition.
I will be grocery shopping over the weekend and plan to pick up some cake mixes so I can see how cleanly the cupcakes release from these silicone liners. Should I find that my expectations of them coming out of the liners without sticking is Not met, I will come back and update my review accordingly.
In the meanwhile, I am very pleased I agreed to purchase mine at a reduced cost in exchange for my honest, unbiased opinion and would highly recommend them!", "label": 1}

I am also aware of the potential of reducing or eliminating erectile disfunction issues, with which I have no issues. So far, taking a small dose of Yohimbe in the morning with my coffee adds more of an energy kick than coffee alone. It also improves my mental clarity/focus. Determining it's fat burning claims, this is more difficult to determine. I am shedding body fat now (I don't have a lot to lose). However, I can't isolate the benefits of the Yohimbe. So, I can't be sure if it is helping in that area. Now, for the erectile disfunction with which I have no issues... Interestingly enough I can see that these claims are most likely true. I have not issues getting and sustaining an erection, but my erections are much firmer. Also, I tend to get unexpected spontaneous erections... sometimes in public. This can be a bit embarrassing. One example was at the grocery store, just doing my normal weekly shopping and \"Oops\". It's like being a 13 year old kid again. I'm glad I have a shopping carriage I can stand behind while I try to think about non-sexual things to let it dissipate. So, gentlemen be aware of potential awkward situations if you take Yohimbe regularly.
Note: I only take a small amount of Yohimbe once a day in the morning. The total I take is, at best, a forth of a teaspoon. This supplement is very potent. Do not use large amounts.
4-14-2022: So it has been about a month since I started taking the Yohimbe. I have seen a noticeable reduction in my body fat composition. Now remember, I work out regularly (resistance and cardio), I eat a very healthy diet low in carbohydrates, and I do have a cup of black coffee in the morning and drink mostly water during the day. However, it seems like the bodyfat is going away a bit quicker than usual. I suspect that the Yohimbe his helping. I have read it block alpha-2 adrenergic receptors which normally binds with adrenaline receptors which lets adrenalin stay in the body longer to burn fat to produce energy. This could be working, and I'm not complaining about that.", "label": 1}

Well, it can help, but that isn't as important as one with no music at all. The ability to take us to new worlds? By it's nature, yes, as ordinary life doesn't break out into song at the drop of a hat. It can fail, as I think \"Moulin Rouge\" did, but \"Oklahoma\" presents the real world as well as any musical can and does succeed.
How about number of memorable musical numbers? Now there's something. The musical \"Showboat\" is considered one of the greats, and has a moving plot. But aside from \"Old Man River\", how many memorable songs can you count off from that production?
With all that in mind, I believe that \"The Rocky Horror Picture Snow\" is one of the great movie musicals of all time, and I've seen quite a few. Of the three criteria above, pure plot may be the weakest, but even there I think there is something. First, it is a comedy, and at times is very funny. But the subtle (and not so subtle) reminders of 1950's science fiction films make it in it's own way a touching tribute.
It succeeds much, much more in taking us to new worlds. I just got done reviewing \"Guys and Dolls\", a musical as far removed from this as you can get. But that one succeeds partially because it creates an underworld that is real only in our dreams. \"Rocky Horror\" goes way beyond that, creating something truly unique in the area of cinematic story-telling. There is nothing quite like it.
But the songs. Richard O'Brian evidently hit lightening in a bottle with this one, as shown by the fact that he hasn't really done anything else of note since then. But much better to get all the good stuff in one work than a career of one or two-hit song albums. From the hauntingly beautiful opener \"Science Fiction/Double Feature\", the soundtrack doesn't have a clunker in it. Yes, it's primarily rock and roll, and \"Whatever Happened to Saturday Night?\" would have fit right into Meatloaf's \"Bat out of Hell\" album. But the comedic \"Toucha Toucha...\" does advance the plot, and \"The Time Warp\" is as good as any musical production number.
I saw it about thirty times back in college, and was apprehensive about getting it for home viewing. Could the experience be the same? Well, not exactly, but it's well worth getting it for home viewing.", "label": 1}

Silk eyemask: This was a bit too thin and let in a bit too much light under the nose. This is the equivalent of a slightly upgraded version of an airplane eyemask. Actually, a family member informed me that some airplane eyemasks perform better than this one since some airplane eyemasks come with a little barrier around the nose area.

We have also tried in order of preference:
1) Dream Zone Earth Therapeutics is my family's favorite eyemask. My family and I have tried multiple different eye masks and found that this one is our favorite (for people with small noses and shallow eye sockets or asian faces). It is silk and so feels great, has wide elastic bands that fits large head sizes, it has thick padding to fill in the pockets around your eyes and block light, and a second layer of thick padding where the eye bags and nose are to prevent light from coming in from the bottom. It still lets in minimal light depending on the placement but it is minimal and can be mostly eliminated by moving it slightly. I've had this for over 3 years and the elastic has stretched out (as they all do), but I can still put it on using the adjustable velcro back strap (it's just a little looser than I like but it still works better than any of the ones we bought more recently), There has been no dye leaking onto my pillows, velcro rarely if ever catches on my hair (and when it does, barely noticeably) and it is very comfortable and works really well,

2) Silk eye mask with deep nose area that covers the ears: made my family members too warm while sleeping during the night, and made us want to take off the eyemask, which defeats the purpose of having an eyemask. Also, it was good at covering all the light only if you have the placement perfectly fitted over your nose - if it slides up or down even slightly, light pours in easily. But otherwise, it does a good job of blocking light if you get it just right.

4) 3D Sleep Mask. This one was our least favorite and let in a lot of light under the nose, especially if you have a small nose bridge. Also, none of my family members liked the molded material - we liked silk best: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B019JY9BO8/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_23", "label": 0}

What was one more posture support? I really didn\u2019t have too much expectation but hoped for the best anyway. All I can say is...incredible! There is no need for instructions on how to put it on. I took it right out of the box and put it on just like you would a garment..just slip your arms in and pull it together in the front. IMMEDIATELY after securing it in the front, my posture was, what I would consider, in the perfect position. I didn\u2019t want to take it off; however, it does say start with one hour a day for two weeks. The next day, I wore it again, and it felt so weird having my back and shoulders aligned that I kept it on for two hours. Third try, I overwore it and realized there is a reason why they say wear it one hour a day for a time..my underarms were sore-that could have been aggravated by surgery many years ago- I did not wear it for two days and it felt amazing when I put it back on yesterday. I have had the worst posture for many years. It has led to back pain and hip and leg pain. I cannot believe what an improvement I have had just wearing it a few times. If it is coincidence, then let it be. I did try to wear it up against my skin, and it is not going to be comfortable doing that in the summertime, but I will not go without it even at this early date. Another plus is that not once did I have to pull up one of my bra straps. Sorry guys, I know these are not just for women. My husband tried it on, at my suggestion, and it just will not fit him at all. I did buy the large size because I measured between a medium and a large. I am of average height and 165 pounds and it is a most perfect fit with more room to tighten it if I need to and plenty of room to let it out, but it did not fit his average height, at almost 200 pounds. In truth, even though it has only been a few days, I really would like to buy another one just to have for backup!

It is a really nice toothbrush and it does a really good job. But, it is the messiest toothbrush I think I have ever used.
First, I will tell you the things I like about it. The brush is very sleek looking. It is powerful and leaves my teeth feeling shiny and polished. It has reduced the old smoking stains on my front teeth by leaps and bounds, without adding any whitening agents. I like that the brush is on a 2 minute timer and gives you a pause after each 30 second interval to let you know to switch areas of your mouth. I like that there is a sensitve teeth function and have found this very helpful since I do have sensitive teeth. The handle is comfortable and almost ergonomic. I love that this set came with multiple heads in different colors for the whole family to use.
Things I don't particularly like. The brush head is a little small for my liking. My fiancee and I have both missed the feeling of our gums being massaged by a larger brush head. I am used to using a battery operated toothbrush and it even has a larger head. With both of us using it, we have to take the heads off in between brushings and there is no resting spot for the heads when not in use. The charging station is nice and small whichis great for my counterspace... but it leaves me with brush heads that can be knocked off the counter, get dirty or not dry properly. I have taken to storing them in a little finger bowl from the kitchen. Lastly, the brush is so messy. Both of use have to hold our chins over the sink because it gets really drippy even if you try to hold your lips tight. The drips run down and get into the grooves on the brush head. When this happens, due to vibration, the moisture bubbles and "spits" from the band where the head twists onto the base. I can't wear my glasses or I get little droplets of toothpaste on them.
Overall, I do feel like this is a high quality toothbrush that does a great job of cleaning. There are a few things I would change about it if I got to redesign it myself, but it is a great value option at this price, especially if you have multiple people using it.

I have a really bad ear infection and the past week has been horrible. This hot & cold therapy pack has really helped with the excruciating pain I have been in.
I put it in the microwave for 2 to 2 \u00bd minutes and it last from 20 minutes to 45 minutes depending on where and how I\u2019m using it and the temperature of the environment. For instance, if I lay in bed with my head on it and I\u2019m bundled up in blankets it doesn\u2019t cool down as fast as if I have it laying on my head or body and it is exposed to the air.
It\u2019s also wonderful for menstrual cramps, back aches, headaches, and when my knee is hurting. I had reconstructive knee surgery a few years ago and I have to use hot and cold therapy in addition to my tens unit.
The pack is rectangular in shape and measure 11.5 inches by 6 inches and is a great size and shape for a variety of uses and body parts. It has two sides, one side fleece for hot and the other side is cotton and smooth for cold. But to be honest I used both side for heat. Because it is soft and fill with rice it is moldable to the body part you are using It on so you get more contact.
I put it in the microwave for 2 to 2 \u00bd minutes to heat it up and put it in for 1 \u00bd to 2 minutes to reheat it back up to temp when needed. To chill, I throw it in the freezer for an hour or two.
I got the unscented hot and therapy pack but if you want you can add a couple of drops of essential oils to the pack.
I love that everything about this pack is natural and handmade. From the material to the ingredients which is rice, you know what you are getting. There is no hot plastic chemical unpleasant smell like with traditional heating pads. It does smell like toasted rice but it wasn\u2019t unpleasant because it smells natural and earthy. Also since it\u2019s not electrical there is no risk of fire and it\u2019s safer to use with kids. Still be careful about the heat though, use something between you and the pack. I use a bamboo wash cloth or towel or put it in a pillowcase.

There is no cure and conventional medicines have done very little in the way of symptom management. After trying just about anything and everything, I had all but given up on leading a normal life. In one last ditch effort, I tried this against my better judgement, especially considering I'd fallen for many other "miracle" products in my search for something to ease my suffering and nothing had made enough of a significant difference to justify the price-tag that accompanied it. The only two things that even seemed to help at all were ginger caplets for the nausea and coconut oil for overall health. Still, these alone were not making enough of an impact and I was desperate so I researched Panaseeda long and hard and found it promising enough to pay the price and give it a try.
This stuff has changed my life!!!
I put that on its own line because I wanted to signify the profound importance and impact of that statement. When I say that, I'm not exaggerating or sensationalizing. I have no vested interest in the company that manufactures this product, nor am I getting paid to say it or even to leave a favorable review. Plain and simple, if even one person can get the same results that I have and ease the pain and suffering they're going through, then I would be shamefully remiss if I didn't relate what this has meant for me. It hasn't just eased my issues, it has given me my life back! In the span of 2 months, I went from feeling permanently ill and debilitated to only having occasional but very manageable complaints. Heck, I was experiencing improvement the first week! My digestive problems have vastly improved to just minor upsets and my heart rate has come down enough that mere daily activity doesn't leave me feeling utterly wiped out. I'm now finally able to move forward in my life, a possibility that was a distant fantasy for me just a year ago.
So are there any negatives? I'm not gonna lie, it smells like pine tar and tastes what I imagine pine tar would taste like. I pinch my nose to take it and wash it down with several mouthfuls of water, swishing each one to get the residual oil out of my mouth. It's gross, but that's a very, very, very infinitesimal unpleasantness compared with the benefits and healing that comes with it.

I returned to the states in August of 2015 after having lived in Germany for the past couple years . . . and during our stay, we picked up a number of antique items (some, like this stove, needed a little finishing TLC). So, to that end, I attempted to find a stove polish similar to that used in Germany . . . after checking the big-box stores, all I could really find were versions of spray paints (not what I was looking for; for reasons beyond the scope of this review). Anyway, after speaking w/ some friends back in Germany (one guy, Lothar, was a professional restorer of antique cast iron stoves, takenplattens, irons, etc.) . . . this was the product that I ended up with . . . as it was recommended to me by Lothar.
Initially, it was difficult to determine the 'end color' of this product as I was looking for a 'silver-black' finish & this one came as close as saying "graphite". So, I thought I'd give it a try . . .the picture I'm attaching is being provided so that readers/viewers may appreciate the before & after effects. The doors are the 'after' applying & buffing the polish; whereas the area immediately around the doors (both sets of doors) have not been buffed. As you can see, the contrast between the 'pre & post' buffing is pretty dramatic . . . it goes from a flat black to a glossy-ish silver-black. (Note: ignore the crown as it's not been addressed yet & ignore the firebox, below, as it's been buffed). So, for purposes of this review, check out the doors & the immediate areas around the doors.
If you're going to use this polish on a stove (or any iron item w /much detail), then I'd recommend using the following:
1) Application Brushes: both sponge & bristle brushes have a purpose in this restoration
2) Buffing: I used both cotton rags & a horse hair brush.
3) Dremmel: I used my dremmel (w/ appropriate attachments) for some buffing in the very tight spaces.
After applying the polish & waiting a minimum of 4 hours, it requires a bit of 'elbow grease'; but the end product is well worth it.
Anyway, I hope this is helpful.

I really don't like the chocolate flavored meal replacements, and this one although not exactly cereal milk flavored like I've heard so many rave about is pretty good. It has a neutral flavor profile, You can definitely taste the rice.
I did try it by itself, and it went down pretty smooth, as usual with meal replacements, the colder the better.
Getting the consistency down isn't easy for me because i'm an idiot and i don't measure things.
There, I said it...I think If I were to do that, I would know what the consistency actually should be since Ive never tried the bottled stuff, but in my 24 oz shaker bottle this morning, I put in three scoops and filled it to the brim with my cold brew coffee.
Like I said it has a neutral flavor profile, so you throw this in a mixer with bananas, its just gonna taste like bananas, strawberries, its gonna taste like strawberries, so no surprise, with the coffee, it tasted like, well...coffee.
A bit more latte-ish - you get the mouthfeel of the fat in the Soylent, which kind of reminds me of the bulletproof coffee I used to drink... if you haven't heard of the concept, you make your coffee, pour it HOT into a blender, mix in some grass-fed butter and coconut oil (this is the homespun recipe - you don't have to go buy the bulletproof brand MCT oil, coffee and such) - blend it up and you supposedly have a drink that will make you razor sharp, and satiate your hunger - all this is true, it is delicious, and goes down smooth as all get out, but you're a mess, greasy lips, shiny face, your coffee cup is a mess, spills leave fat stains on your shirt, no bueno...and jeez, who has time to do all that mess first thing in the morning.
So I gave that up, and I gotta say, trying Soylent with cold brew coffee brought back some of those same sensations, it will satiate your hunger (without clogging your arteries), and has close to the same mouthfeel, although nothing tops pure grass-fed butter and coconut oil...
All in all, I'm a fan, been drinking it for a while now, and almost time to reorder - I have heard it was cheaper to order from the website, but I know for a fact it's easier for me to order from Amazon...

Mind you, I didn't get the $70 option, but I did spend far more than I ever had previously. On nail clippers. My wife scowled at me increduously, chuckled, rolled her eyes, and turned away dismissively.
I'm not a professional nail tech. I don't have any medical conditions that require special needs or infections for power tools to saw through. I'm just a guy who likes his nails to not scare small children and cause strangers to recoil in horror. And to impress people with my hygiene, like my beautiful wife who once appreciated how sharp I am but now clowns me for researching expensive nail clippers.
Yes, I did research. For nail clippers. Apparently, Japan does their typically excessive, impeccable work on personal hygiene products that involve cutting edges, like little katanas. These are Japanese, and are highly recommended by the review sites.
They're pretty, satin finish and curves and all, but the engineering is where it's at. Solid feel. Good weight. Great tension. And the cutting. Wow. There's something to this offset feathered edge technology. On regular drug store clippers that just means poor quality control and uneven, misaligned edges. Not here. This is some space age, intentional, genius-level paradigm shift in nail clipping. The included file is quite impressive, but you don't need it. Because it cuts so well.
And the little clipping catcher actually works, which boggles my mind because clippings usually shoot across the room *away from you* but it captures them inside, in the opposite direction.
One note (not a complaint): The research I did stated that this was best in class for larger clippers, which is what I was looking for. The type you can use on fingers and/or toes. Not the tiny ones for itty bitty baby nails or those giant, club-like toe nail clippers you could cut hedges with. That's what the M in the name is for, I assumed: Medium.
Well, these are large. Not unwieldy, two-handed monsters that look like a car jack, but larger than I'd expected (these replaced--and are larger than--some Revlon Sure Grips I had for a decade that were larger than most).
Maybe I'll let her use them. Or, maybe I'll be petty, roll my eyes, and chuckle. Nah, then I'd miss a chance to sing their praises and spread the nail clipping gospel...and justify my efforts.", "label": 1}

Then it's supposed to keep your stats and help you achieve your weight goals.
Long story short, this device has the worst, most unnecessarily complicated interface I have ever encountered in my life. I am an IT guy, so it's not like I am unfamiliar with tech stuff.
When my wife and I finally got it programmed last year after at least an hour and a half, it did work.
Last night, my daughter decided to get on the Fitbit bandwagon. My wife and I got new Charge 2's so I gave my daughter my Fitbit Charge HR. When I tried to set up her Fitbit on the scale, it took an hour.
I have "connection unsuccessful" literally burned into my brain I've seen it so many times.
When we did get her setup (or so we thought) it recognized her and we thought all was well in Fitbit land. Wrong!
Now, my wife and I show up as "Guests" on the scale and my daughter shows up as me. She weighs a good 20 lbs less than I do so when she showed up on the scale as me, the app thought I had lost 20 lbs and sent me a congratulatory message. Threw my weight goals and planning right out the window.
Following me so far?
To setup a Fitbit to interact with the Aria scale, you have to remove a battery in the scale for 10 seconds to get to the setup menu. Then, you have a slim window of opportunity to make the connection. Since it takes so long to make the connection, the scale times out and you have to repeat the process all over again. After about an hour,I really, really wanted to throw the scale against the wall, but remembering how much is cost ($130.00), I decided I would refrain from this idea.
You are required to connect your device to the Aria wifi (it has its own) and upon doing this, you are then required to switch back to your regular wifi. Ridiculous interface.
If I had it to do over again, I would NEVER have purchased this overly and unnecessarily complicated device. Putting your weight into the Fitbit app manually is far easier than fighting with this Aria scale. This you can do with ANY scale.
Unless Fitbit and Aria get their act together, I suggest you do NOT buy this scale. It is just not worth the hassle.", "label": 0}

Spend a lot of time reading and learning about essential oils and their uses. While I'm still a novice, I feel that I'm getting more knowledgeable every day. When I originally started to receive essential oils at a discount for an honest review from Amazon, I'd write about "red flags" and information one should know when looking for a company from which to buy oils. At this point, the major companies have started to have a lot of the information on the bottles and in the product descriptions--Latin name, safety information, method of extraction, where the plant material was grown, what it's used for, date of expiration. You no longer have to hunt for it. The only information I couldn't find is what part of the plant is distilled. I know that with all the Frankincense species, it's the gum resin.
I belong to several essential oil Facebook groups. Many of these groups rate essential oil companies--cream of the crop, very good and not worth your time or money. Much of the information is determined by the availability of information on the individual oils that can help determine the quality (whether or not they have the chemical constituents they are supposed to have at certain levels.) I buy most of my oils from two companies that are rated "very good." Have recently treated myself to oils from two of the "cream of the crop" companies. What I've started to do to evaluate some of these less expensive oils is to compare them to the oils from the "very good" companies.
There are three species of Boswellia essential oils--carteri, fereana and serrata, all of which own. I have one other Boswellia serrata. It's from one of the "very good" companies. At the time I purchased, they didn't have an organic Boswellia serrata, now they do. For me, I'm not sure that organic makes a big difference. The cold pressed citrus oils are the ones that I've read that you should buy organic. The US Organic Frankincense serrata smells identical to my other Frankincense serrata.

One comment I read was that the weight cell can get out of calibration during shipping. Made me wonder why there wasn't a lock out to prevent damage/calibration issues in shipping.
Other than the above issues, it really is a fine scale. Appears to be made well and looks great, better than i expected. But, if it doesn't work, its not much more than a door stop.
Update: returned device. Already got a new one.... Yeah AMAZON !!!!!!!!! Went through the wireless link up and it works beautifully !!! My hypothesis ??? .... Weight cell suceptable to damage... Packaging has no foam impact protection or sensor damage protection aka lock out device to prevent platter from hammering the sensors. If you get the above error I would return it. Don't waste your time with their customer service . I read a lot of comments about the above issue and Fitbit has never as far as I've read admitted that it is their device that may be defective. So sorry to say I'm keeping my review at 2 stars . I'm sure the Fitbit allergy issue was expensive for them. If I was the ceo I would not want to go through that headache again. LOL
Ok... Ok. Fitbit threatened my family and so I have changed my review to 4 stars. I'm totally kidding about that. After using it for a day I am impressed. It really is a great scale, well built and if you read the directions it is very easy to set up. I realized I was frustrated with the scale error issue and still am dubious about the fragility of the sensor so I made my review one star short of perfect. Fitbit really needs to address packaging. What changed my mind are two things:
1) If you can't set this thing up you are:(based on me reading other reviews)
a) A complete moron
b) Are having an issue with your network
c) Don't read directions (like most of us)
2) Fitbit really did go out of their way to email me back quickly regarding fixing the issue. I just chose not to spend the time with their customer service", "label": 1}

The listing here says this is a professional ceramic flat-iron. Although it has many of the same components as a professional flat-iron, I don't feel that it is the same quality as a professional one. One of my best friends is a hair stylist and she cuts and styles my hair for me. While her work flat iron isn't pretty at all, it does the job quicker and better than this one does.
That being said, I do think this is a good product for at-home use.
I have naturally curly hair-- although I'm firmly in the 3A or \"Curly Twirly\" territory ([...]), and I used to just wear my hair curly. Since I cut it shorter though I like the way it looks straightened, so I've been using this iron almost daily for the last few months before writing my review.
First, lets talk about the cons. 1. This thing is HEAVY. It's heavy guys. It's not heavy like a 2-lb dumbell, but it does have some weight to it. I was used to a cheaper iron before, which didn't work as quickly, but was a little bit easier to use because it was lighter.
2. This says that it has a safety switch which turns it off after 40 mins-- but reality determined that was a lie. I have left this thing on more times than I can count (I'm not the most responsible human adult) and every time I've come back to this being as hot as when it first reached temp. It's not been a problem for me because I keep it on the little protective mat that came with it, so nothing has been damaged, but I don't have children so.
3. Finally as I said before, I don't feel this is a professional salon quality item.
Okay, so lets talk pros:
1. It's cute as heck. I don't really mind leaving it out on my dresser because it's almost like decoration.
2. It comes in a super nice package with a comb (for different part designs and for easier separation for ironing) and a safety pad to wrap it in to cool down. I've obviously gotten a lot of use out of that.
3. It works, guys. It works better than my $25 Revlon one that I got a few years ago, and it works the same every time I've used it since I got it a few months ago.
4. Finally, it's a reasonable price. It may not be AS good as a CHI hair straightener, but it is solidly $30 cheaper than the cheapest CHI, and it works plenty well enough for daily use.
I purchased this item at a slight discount in exchange for my unbiased trial and honest review, but after using it for 3 months, and knowing how it works, I would have paid the full price for it.", "label": 1}

When it is unplugged it has almost.no power at all. When it is plugged in I have to stop often to let it rest to be as powerful as it was when I first received it. I am very disappointed.
I kept seeing commercials for the pedi soft and, as I am obsessed with the aesthetics of my feet, I was very intrigued, so I did my research. Of the three most popular electronic foot buffers on the market this one received the best reviews, although the others were not too far behind. So I ordered it, and I can't say I disagree! Although I have not used the other two so I cannot say that this one is the better of the three, I can say that this one works very well and does everything it promises to do.
The product arrived fairly quickly. Packaged well, and in brand new condition. when I opened the box everything was in place. I took the unit out immediately and turned it on and was delighted to find that it was charged and worked right out of the box. I emphatically went right to work and lo and behold it did everything all the reviewers claimed it would do. There was a large amount of "dead skin dust" just piling up under where I was using it. Immediately I noticed a difference. My feet were softer and smoother within seconds. To be honest, it's a little addicting! It is actually fun to use! Be careful though, as overuse can leave your feet cracked if you thin the skin too much. Also, if you leave the unit on one spot for more than a few seconds without moving it it can feel like it's burning. It doesn't take much to notice a difference but because it is so enjoyable it is easy to overdo it.
Furthermore I was contacted by the company three times. Once when I initially received it I got an email with basic instruction on how to use the product. Over the next month I received two more emails with further instructions and FAQ's about the product, as well as an offer of eager customer service on hand if I have any problems at all. Personally I think customer service is just as important as the product so I do appreciate this attention, however i am hoping this won't be a constant occurrence as I can definitely get annoyed at an overbearing overabundance of constant correspondence asking if I like the product. YES I like the product! THANK YOU for the wonderful customer service! Cheers!", "label": 0}

Pros:
1. EASY SETUP. After reading so many reviews about problems in wifi setup I was a little apprehensive. I used my MacPro to download the software and it took all of about 2 minutes to set up. Just follow the instructions which is quite simple. (I will be looking out for any problems in the future.)
2. LOOKS: People who like design of Apple products will loke this scale (white). Next to it my old scale [[ASIN:B0020MMCDE Omron HBF-514C Full Body Composition Sensing Monitor and Scale]] it looks so futuristic. I was happy with my Omron but Aria steals the show.
3. CAN'T CHEAT: All readings are stored on the server. No need to write down weights, it records date, time and measurement. (Readings can be manually deleted on the web site if needed.)
4. ACCURATE WEIGHING: I compared a couple of readings with the Omron HBF-514C ones and both were within 0.2 pounds. Omron was calibrated with a previous Tanita scale and found to be accurate. Reading seem good enough for me.
Cons:
1. PRICE: At $130 it is a (fit)bit expensive. However, on Amazon the prices varies. I started tracking its price about 3 weeks ago and the white one which always showed $127-130, one day had new one for $108.xx and I grabbed it. The black one varies often and I have seen it go down to $111.xx on two different days. So if you are patient you can save some. Still it is expensive but for the convenience it is worth it in my view.
2. RECORDS ALL: Sometimes I just want to test my scale but everthing is recorded. It can be deleted by going online but wish there was some option not to record a reading in the first place. Just a small inconvenience though.
3. BODYFAT: Most expensive scales give out this measurement but the accuracy is highly suspect. Best will be to look for trend and for those who are obsessed with bodyfat measurement, best idea will be to get theirs measured at professional locations at about $60-70 every six months or so. For example I hae seen underwater measurement (most accurate one) offered at local climbing gyms at $70.
SUMMARY: I am very happy with this scale. I also own a [[ASIN:B00BGO0Q9O Fitbit Flex Wireless Activity + Sleep Wristband, Black]] and I think my activity and weight measurements, while still not perfect, have reached a new stage keeping up the latest advances. I will use this scale and will report if something changes. Thanks for reading my review.", "label": 1}

We have a bathroom with a glass shower door and wall which hasn\u2019t been properly cleaned for 17 years. We washed it but never concerned ourselves with getting rid of the hard water stains. Finally during COVID-19 I have had tons of extra time and got a bee in my bonnet that I needed to get that shower looking fresh and new. I started with CLR, then Lime-a-way. Each evening for about 2 weeks I spent about 20-30 min of hard scrubbing on that glass shower every day to try to make some effort. Most of the buildup was gone after all that scrubbing, but the etched in hard water stains remained, no matter what I did, no matter how hard I scrubbed. Next I moved onto a razor blade and scraped and scraped but it made absolutely no difference. I got a ceramic oven cleaner and tried that. Nothing would work. I was scared to buy this product because some reviews gave it low marks. Also, I wanted to get the set with the power drill brush, but several people said that it left scratches on their glass. So I finally gave in and bought a bottle of this product, and I also bought a WHITE power drill brush (not the stiffer yellow one) and tested it out on a small spot in the shower on the glass. I had to drill at high speed for a few minutes, but afterwords I was flabbergasted! It actually worked! All the etched in hard water stains were gone in that spot! I couldn\u2019t believe it! It did take 3-4 attempts to completely remove all the hard water etching from my glass. And I had to rinse with tons of water, and then I used windex to remove any residue. My glass looks brand new! It is amazing! I must say that there is a very slight (and hard to notice) clouding of the glass now, but the glass looks so clean and new that it is like we just bought the house! The slight (very very slight) clouding is much preferable to the hard water etched-in hard water stains. It looks so amazing now!!! I gave this 4 out of 5 stars because it was so expensive!! And because of the very slight clouding. But I honestly don\u2019t know if it is the product or just the power drill brush that made the difference, but the combination of the two did the trick!

I wrote to the company, asking several questions and I very much appreciate their thorough response. I haven't decided or purchased a product yet, so my 5 stars are for their responsiveness. Here's my Q and their A :
1. Q: How many temperature settings?
A: There is only an \" On and Off\" switch. There are no heat settings. All of our products only go to mid-40 degrees. So not very hot more-so warm to the touch. Our products have been proven to penetrate 2.36 inches so 6cm through the body. Normal heating pads usually only heat the surface of the skin where as Thermotex products go deep and penetrate through muscles and issues in the body.
2. Q: What are the 2 far infrared inserts made of?
A: Our inserts are - A patented carbon impregnated fibreglass mat. So when electricity is applied it produces far infrared energy.
3. Q: Does it shut off automatically?
A: No, none of our products shut off by themselves. You have to turn off the heating pad if you don't want it on anymore.
They do not use a lot of electricity - it's only 4 cents a day.
Therefore they are not very expensive to keep on if you chose to use it all day or forget to turn it off after you're done using it. Very cost efficient.
4. Q: How is it powered?
A: All of our products are powered by an electrical wall outlet that you plug the product into. If you wanted to use it in your vehicle for traveling you could do so -- just would need a converter.
Our plugs are made for the north American market so depending on your location you may need a converter if your plug in outlets are different then in north America or Canada.
5. Q: Is any part of it washable?
A: Yes you can wash the covers of all our products.
You can't wash any of the products with the inserts still inside as water might damage and wreck them.
There's a velcro strip at the very bottom of the knee where the electrical cord comes out of. You would just open the velcro and remove the inserts before washing.
The covers can be washed in the washer and then in your dryer on the low tumble setting.
6. Q: Can I bend my knee when wearing it?
A: Yes you can bend your knee while wearing the knee pad. You do need to be by a wall outlet and keep the product plugged in in order for it to continue to work. You can bend and move with it on though.
7. Q: What kind of fabric is it?
A: The fabric covers are made of polyester, nylon and cotton.", "label": 1}

The setup is unlike anything I have set up. I was curious how it would be done. I wanted to live with the scale then write my review.
The first person in the family who is setup on the scale becomes the primary person in charge of adding other family members. That first person then emails up to 7 additional family members and gives them permission and instructions via an auto-email from the Fitbit site. The scale gives you 3 letters to identify each member of the family (they pick and this can be changed easily). If a "guest" uses the scale it says "Guest" while weighing, gives the weight and then the light goes out.
Each individual's weight is assigned to them. If you are within 8 pounds of another person the scale will display both of your ID's until it can decide who is the person on the scale. When your initials (or 3 letter name) shows step off the scale and you will be assigned that weight. A big check mark appears when the scale is finished. You can step off then.
The real nice feature is you can step on the scale and simply wait for the light to go off. Once the light is off you step off the scale and go about your day. When you feel you can handle seeing the numbers you can check your Fitbit Dashboard online. So nothing to write down. No forgetting. Easy recall and graphs of your weight online. BMI (body mass index) is given on the scale too as the weight, BMI and 3 letter ID rotates on the display. BMI is also logged online along with the weight.
Scale can be moved around for dusting under it, etc. Put it back or relocate keeping it within range of your Wi-Fi.
350 pound maximum weight and scale weighs to the nearest Tenth of a pound. Scale uses 4 AA batteries
Each person sets up their own privacy settings for where and who sees their numbers. Family members will not see your weight unless you set it up that way. There are several setting for your weight alone. So everyone can be happy
Two negatives. It takes longer to weigh than with a no frills scale. Can be 30 seconds or more if your Wi-Fi is weak or you are close to another family member in weight. This means it can get cold during those morning weighings.
Second negative is setup is not easy, but it is straight forward. Just different that expected.", "label": 1}

However, when I could not find any of my usual brands, I tried this and once was more than enough. This has way too many unwanted ingredients. Normally, I avoid artificial sweeteners, and this is \"sugar free\" with sucralose as the sweetener. It seems to have THREE preservatives none of which I am pleased about - methylparaben, propylparaben, and propylene glycol, then both artificial and natural cherry flavor, red food coloring #40, plus menthol, and a couple other ingredients in addition to Guaifenesin. All in all, it seems like too many additives, and it tastes VILE. I see others have mentioned the flavor, not liking the flavor - but - what is causing the bad taste is all the various garbage additives, and it's not the normal cherry syrup used in other brands of this product, whether the original Robitussin, or Waltussin. This is very watery and thin, not the usual consistency, and certainly not the usual taste - but I think the taste is coming from some of the additives. The bottle that I opened and used once - big 16 oz. bottle - is going in the garbage. It's not simply bad flavor, but I'm assuming all these various additional ingredients are what is causing the bad taste, and I'm not going to take it again. Unfortunately, I ordered TWO of the bottles. Just now, I looked at the site on Amazon where I ordered this product - AND - the list of all ingredients is entirely different on the website compared to what is on the label of this bottle. I just made a screen shot of it, perhaps to share with customer service, since the preservatives and sweetener and the syrup itself are NOT the same in the listing at the website as they are on the bottle - totally different. In any case, I recommend getting some brand other than Rugby brand of this product. I see currently this product is out of stock on Amazon, but that's a good thing - order something that is not this. Unless you have already used the brand and like it. I won't use it again, ever.

There have been herbal cigarettes I have tried in the past that are like these but not the same they were called Ecstasy cigarettes I have no idea who makes them but back in 2001 when I was living in a dry county the tobacco store was the easiest place to get to and so I had a go with those cigarettes which they do give you a light buzz not the same as real tobacco but the hand to mouth action I need to relieve my pain and stress. Now I found out about the other herbal cigarettes doing research about different types of herbage. I found out this is the oldest or longest running brand. So to try something new and maybe lessen my exposure to the addictiveness of the nicotine and FSC (\"flame safe cigarette\") chemical I would try it. I am pretty much satisfied here because they do taste like an Ecstasy cigarette but the ingredients are different. I guess, I don't make them but I know they kind of taste the same yet different. It burns about the same as a king Marlboro not too fast not slow and there is a strawberry and herbal scent. There are many different herbs in it. So, if you want to get done with the others for awhile these are okay. I don't know if there is the catnip in it like the other cigarettes mentioned but the ingredients sounded good enough to go smoke them. I think if you are looking for something like the buzz you get with Ecstasy cigarettes instead of the nicotine buzz and just take a break from the others it is a fine one to try. I just wanted to try a cigarette that has a different scent and maybe a different flavor than your regular Pall Mall. I like the way they taste. It has a flavor and scent to it much different than tobacco but it is a flavor and an innovative supplement or substitute. I am sorry for the people who don't like it but I haven't actually been in a smoke shop for ages. I usually buy cigarettes at the grocery or pharmacy since I am looking for nerves/pain relief. So getting them at the smoke shop may not be an option for me (or anyone) and you may have to get them here at Amazon but you know what if you don't like the flavor then stick with tobacco or grape blunts or whatever you normally smoke.

First, I bought this for my office chair, which is an excellent chair with lots of adjustment knobs and levers that I bought (lightly used) for home use 12 years ago. I've now been working from home for almost 5 years, and the seat recently just seemed to turn to concrete. For weeks I've been unwilling to get on an exercise bike after sitting all day because my tush hurt so much, and it finally got to the point that two hours in this chair had me squirming in pain, my whole lower back hurting. Replacing the whole chair seemed ridiculous: everything is in great shape except the seat cushion, and getting a chair with a similar set of adjustments would be well over $300 (this chair retailed for $330 in the late '90s.) So, for weeks I used various cushions from around the house (including memory foam), a borrowed wheel chair cushion with gel, 3 layers of an excellent closed-cell foam exercise mat: nothing helped.
I used this WonderGel Extreme Orthopedic Seat Cushion yesterday for the first time, and sat 6 straight hours with no problems at all. I worked a couple of more hours in the evening, no problems. This truly feels heaven-sent. I highly recommend it for any use - office chair, wheel chair, full-time driving, etc. It has a good cover on it; one side has a no-slip texture to prevent the cushion from slip-sliding when in use, and a sturdy carrying handle. This version is not light: it seems to weigh about 5 or 6 lbs, or as I told one friend, \"think laptop not netbook\" if you're thinking of lugging it around. They do seem to have lighter models, including the Orthopedic Wondergel (Intelli-gel) Roll & Go - Gel Seat Cushion, which at 1 inch would be half the depth and less than half the weight (the dimensions are slightly smaller). The original model is 1.5 inches, same dimensions as this model, and comes in at 3.9 pounds, so my guess on the weight of this one is about right. (http://www.amazon.com/Wondergel-Original-Gel-Seat-Cushion/dp/B004EMXZKW/ref=pd_bxgy_hpc_text_b) For occasional use (driving, stadium, church or theater seats, etc) I would have gone with the one of the lighter models, but for full-time use I'm guessing this is the better choice, though it might be more than is needed for a petite woman.

You just use the handy chapstick shaped tube to roll-on a little of the wax to the edge of your glasses and the wax creates a bonding effect so that your glasses don't slip off anymore. I have a pair of plastic frame glasses with no nosepads, so my glasses would frequently slide down to the bottom of my nose when I would bend my head downward. Ugggg!!! So annoying! With Nerdwax, that problem is no longer happening. My glasses are staying in place because this Nerdwax makes a sort of bond that keeps them from sliding off. The product has a pleasant, slight mint smell and did not cause any irritation to my skin (since it is a natural product anyway). This product is not greasy, so you will never feel like you will have to wash your face after using Nerdwax on your glasses. I love that it comes in a chapstick size tube because it is so portable that way. This is one of those got-to-have-it products that I will defiantly reorder when I run out. Well worth the $12 it cost to get it. If you have read this far, please know that my husband has glasses with nosepads, and he was amazed when using Nerdwax that he didn't have to push up his glasses even once when applying the product. For his plastic frame sunglasses, he had been previously buying cushion pads and coloring them with a black marker and sticking them to his glasses (it looked really stupid), but now he will just use Nerdwax instead. This product is for ANY type of eye glasses you own and I can think of no substitute that is effective or as cool.
In response to negative reviews, I say that getting your eye-glasses adjusted properly is the first necessary step to having your glasses fit properly. This is easy to do with a little eye-glass screwdriver kit or bringing them into your eye-glass store and the technicians adjusting your glasses for free. I would not expect NerdWax to solve a problem that a little screwdriver to my stretched out eyeglasses can fix far better, so the negative reviews are questionable to me. NerdWax works and so what if you have to reapply it. Would you rather push up your glasses all day long? Ignore the negative reviews.", "label": 1}

Noni is the Hawaiian name for the Morinda citrifolia plant, an evergreen shrub that probably originated in Southeast Asia and has spread throughout Oceania. It is believed that noni was a \"canoe plant,\" so highly prized by Polynesian peoples that they brought it with them as they migrated in their canoes to new islands. As the white noni berry is pungent and bitter, it was only eaten during times of famine. However, Polynesians used the noni berry widely as a dye and to treat wounds, inflammations, infections and other ailments.
Health Benefits of Noni Powder
Noni is sometimes known as a superfood because of all its phytochemicals: antioxidants, polysaccharides, flavonoids, fatty acids, and catechins. It contains 17 different amino acids, as well as a significant amount of other nutrients.
1) Antioxidant Powerhouse: Organic noni powder is packed with protective antioxidants, flavonoids, and catechins. These compounds protect cells from oxidative damage caused by free radicals, which helps reduce the risk for premature aging and chronic conditions like heart disease.
2) Immunity-Boosting: Noni is a rich source of polysaccharides which support the body's natural defense system against illness and infection. A study at the University of Hawaii demonstrated that the polysaccharide content of noni juice improves the function of white blood cells in the immune system, which protect the body against diseases. A separate study at the university found that specific polysaccharides, known as noni-ppt, inhibited tumor growth and improved the life span of tumor-bearing mice.
3) Essential Nutrients: Organic noni powder is an excellent source of essential fatty acids and all 9 essential amino acids that our bodies do not produce naturally and must be obtained through diet. Essential fatty acids keep our cells functioning normally and essential amino acids are required to help our bodies make proteins. Additionally, noni powder is an excellent source of vitamin C, dietary fiber, iron, and potassium.\"

One thing I was very curious about was the ability of the unit to control the air in a certain area. But I can't find anywhere on the website or the amazon product page where its clarified. At the moment I have two of these, one is in the laundry room and the other is in my son's bedroom, which is about 11x10 feet. One presumes that the unit can handle a bedroom, but as I said, its really not clear.
According to the manufacturer, the bulb loses 15% "efficiency" after 4000 hours (5.5 months of continuous use), and should be replaced. I have been waiting until mine burn out before replacing. Replacement bulbs are reasonable. At the time of this review, they are $8 each delivered from Amazon but $14 each from the manufacturer's website.
But lets go back to this 15% efficiency loss. What is this 15% of? Brightness? luminousness? UV rays (quantity)? UV strength (quality)? Germs killed? 15% suggests there is some number, some study, but all we get is 15%. If I'm running it in a small room, and if there is a loss of efficiency, won't all the germs get killed anyway, but just slower? too many unanswered questions.
Guardian's website says:
"UV-C light helps kill the DNA of germs reducing their ability to reproduce. UV-C light kills germs."
I found this a bit confusing. On the one hand, the UV light neuters the germs so they can't reproduce, which does help. The next sentence says that it kills germs. If it kills germs it doesn't seem relevant that it would neuter them.
While I like this unit, I feel that GG needs to provide a bit more depth to their information. They have a lot of grand, sweeping statements like "UV-C has been used to kill germs for 100 years", but very little information about the efficacy or efficiency of their own product.
Basically, they say "Our product must work, because science is happening inside. You can't doubt science." So I remove a star for the lack of information.
I do believe in the science, which is why it gets 4 stars, but I just can't give 5 stars for a "covered wagon medicine show" presentation depth.
Some extremely basic statistics really need to be added.", "label": 1}

I don't know where to start with this. My first impression was that someone made this with a trip to home depot and $20 bucks. It leaked from day one and one of the 9 volt batteries that were sealed in the cap where almost dead. Yes, I said sealed in the cap, with glue!
The ionic silver made from this machine is so weak it is practically useless. It failed the milk test. I also gave some to a friend for her daughter for her acne to spray on her face. She was using a 10 ppm spray from Silver Wings and having great results. When she ran out, I gave her some of the stuff I made with this. She might as well have been spraying distilled water on her face. All of her acne started coming back immediately.
According to Silver lungs these guys have no idea of what they are talking about and the size of ion particles is more like .23nm not 10 nm. NO PARTCILES are created whatsoever in a colloidal silver generator. ONLY (ions) are dissolved from the electrodes. So what is this 10nm thing all about? TEM analysis creates particles that weren't originally there after you evaporate the water so it is not the correct way to test for particle size.
This product claims 10 ppm after 35 minutes. What they don't tell you is that to them, 4 ppm is 10 ppm and they have an equation they use to justify it. Every other generator on the market uses a 10 ppm reading on TDS meters. The standard that people have been using and is effective is 10 ppm on a TDS meter. Even if that is really more than 10 ppm when converted, it is the measurement everyone uses and compares to. I have tried to make 10 ppm with a TDS meter on this unit and it took me over a hour. It was a pain because I had to clean the silver 4 times. The quality was poor with debris in the water.
This is a very poorly made product. Even the silver they give you is cut in a way that the ends of the wires have sharp edges that promote silver oxidation build up. The Silver lungs generator has 7 guage silver rods that are smooth all over and polished.
I have an idea. Instead of posting tests showing the size of your particles, why not test your solution to see if it really works?

Chinese meds are rarely mentioned, and when they are it's usually to say they're old and useless.
Well, Chinese remedies are old: they have a couple thousand years on modern medicine. And from experience, I think they have their place. They certainly do for me.
I first came upon Chinese remedies seven years ago. My then six-year-old cat had chronic irritable bowel symptoms and my usual vet - open-minded as he was - could offer nothing but prednisone, a steroid. Cats tolerate it much better than humans or dogs, but I knew it would shorten his life. That was when I found a DVM who also uses holistic methods. Ricky the cat was put on a tea pill regimen (not the pill being reviewed) and has been on them ever since, with only an occasional change. Ricky is extremely active and far healthier at thirteen than he was at six.
So, I'd been taking Inderol for mild high blood pressure for many years and I had avoided reading about the side effects for most of that time. A couple years into Ricky's Chinese pills, I consulted a practitioner and began using Six Flavor Tea Pills as recommended. After a couple weeks to give the pills time to begin working, I began lowering the amount of Inderol I was taking. Within a month, I was off the prescription drug and my blood pressure was lower than the drug-induced norm. It's stayed that way since then. (And one of the side effects of Inderol, tiredness, suddenly abated in the first couple months -- I was so used to the side effect that I didn't know I had it until it was gone.
This is a remedy. It may work for you, it may not. Once my western MD commented on my better-than-ever blood pressure (at least six months after I'd switched), I was pretty convinced this is good stuff. For me. Please consult a good practitioner -- these simple pills are complicated and a practitioner prescribes or suggests OTC like this based on a whole body approach. Their goal is to restore balance to the body, and a good one knows what they're doing.
Meanwhile, Ricky and I are very happy.

I recently got a fan-based white noise generator that lets you adjust the tone and volume and have been using that in the bedroom to help sleep. I had been curious about some of the electronic white noise generators and thought to give this one a try, thinking I would use it in my office.
Probably the best thing going for this device is that it looks nice. It's about the size of an Echo Dot, looks sleek, has a nice speaker on top, and a great looking screen. First impressions were very good. Actually operating the device is another story. There are 6 touch buttons on it (no tactile feedback) - power, volume, timer, lock, category, sound. Operating this should be easy, but it is really not pleasant. For instance, to adjust the volume, you can't simply press volume up or down, there are no such buttons. There is just a single volume button. You can hold it, and the volume will change in 1 direction. I guess it cycles to the loudest sound, and then back down to the quietest sound? Strange.
Then there are the scenes/music you can cycle through. There's a category button, and a sound button. You can press category to cycle through categories, and within each category you can press the sound button to cycle through the sounds in that category. There's no indicator on the screen of which category or sound you are in. So you can cycle through things like nature, animals, life, etc. Some of the options are very strange, like there is an ASMR category which contains sounds like eating potato chips, or drinking water. There are some genuinely good sounds in here, but I find it very strange to navigate around. I wish there was some visual indicator of the category or sound, because I have to look at the instruction manual to try and figure out which category I am in. I suppose if you find a favorite sound and don't want to switch to others it would be fine, but I still don't like the process of navigating the sounds on this.
The thing that is most baffling to me is that this is called a white noise machine, the manual calls it a white noise machine, but there are actually no white noise options to choose from on it.
Pros:
- Looks nice
- Decent speaker
- Screen is good quality
- Displays temperature/humidity on screen
- Battery powered
- Can work OK if you find a sound you like and don't want to navigate around
Cons:
- Single button for volume control is bad
- Navigating scenes/sounds is not intuitive, it's hard to tell where you are and where you're going without referencing the manual
- It's called a white noise machine but doesn't actually have any white noise option

In order to ease her pain and my sanity, I thought I'd give this product a try. Before I even got home from work on the day it was delivered, I got a text from her, "the foot massager rocks!" That is certainly a good first sign. After I got home, I ran it through its paces.
There are 4 options under Auto and 3 options under Custom. Clicking through all 7, they did not feel different whatsoever. Exactly the same. That was a little disappointing. Putting it into manual, you can select between 3 different speeds and then select if it moves forward or reverse. Apparently this is the setting I'll be using on this, since the others are all the same.
The remote is useful if you are like me and have a little belly that makes it hard to reach down and touch your toes when seated. You have to point it really close and sometimes press the button more than once, but it works.
The actual massage is pretty nice. Its deep and rough, so if you are looking to get your foot tickled, this machine is not for you. It will borderline hurt sometimes, but it really gets in there and massages your feet. My wife is a size 7-8 and I am a size 12, but narrow feet. I could see how, if you had wider feet, this might be a little too tight.
As far as long term reliability, the jury is still out. If you search around Amazon, you can find this exact unit badged under many different names.

If you are currently using one of the big Nebulizers with hoses, etc. They are bullet proof and easy to use, noisy, a mess to clean up, hard to transport.
You have to know that they need to be sanitized with each use or you are drawing mold into your lungs.
Fill a sink with warm water and dish soap. The atomizer uses ultrasonic screens to atomize, located in the detachable top. I use the power cord as the unit draws more juice than the batteries can handle after a couple of days. You can live with it for a couple of days while you travel. Pour your Albuterol or what ever into the top. Make sure the cup is completely attached, and turn on. It will start to smoke immediately if you followed the instructions on how to clean and dry. If you hold it parallel or tipped away a little it should run all the way through.
If you are using one of the old big ones you are probably used to sucking it in pretty strong. If you do anything but slow and steady you will draw the mixture right through the screen and into the exit tube. Pour out what is in the tube onto a paper towel and set it on the counter running. The screen should clear within a minute and start smoking again. The unit will shut off when done.
Put the face mask or mouthpiece in the dish water. Pull the cup off, pour out the left overs, and slosh through the dish water for the cup then for the exit tube. Then slosh through the faucet for a rinse. Do not get the base unit (or handle) anywhere near water. Dry completely with soft dry cloth. Put about a 1/16" of clean water in the cup and re attach. Set it on the counter upright,turn on and within a minute or two it will start to smoke. Let it finish and shut off. This cleans the screen of any residue. Dry out the exit tube and the cup with your cloth and put away.
I found after a couple of days it went smooth and was no worse than the old one. It did take me a couple of days to decide I liked it better.
Some truths. The albuterol or discus you use will in time desolve tooth enamel if you don't pay attention. It is a good time for salt water rinse and gargle.

It's simply amazing that there are 4,000 tiny little silicone bristles all across the surface of the scrubber. The bristles somehow manage to work quite effectively at exfoliating the skin while feeling incredibly soft at the same time. It's not like you're scraping your skin with stiff bristles. This is a very gentle experience. At the same time, it also does a really nice job of stimulating your circulation.
The rounded shape also makes it so there are no uncomfortable edges or corners on this thing, making it a pleasure to use.
The pump works brilliantly to inflate or deflate the scrubber's base and provide just the softness or firmness that you need for the job at hand. Note that no matter how firmly you inlate it, it will still feel soft and comfortable against your skin. It's hard to describe how that could be, but it somehow manages to do just that. When it's fully inflated, it's convex, making it great for getting into an indented area. When it's partially deflated, it's flat and can get to pretty much any area of your body. When it's fully deflated, it's concave, making it great for scrubbing your chin or nose or any other small protruding area of the body.
It's comfortable to hold and you can either grip it by its handle or put its handle between your fingers and then grip the outer edge with your hand. That's especially useful if you take this into the shower and get yourself all soapy, which will make the scrubber a bit slippery.
Since it doesn't come with any soap and doesn't have a soap dispenser in it, you can use it with any soap. It does an exceptionally good job of lathering up the soap because of all those bristles. Mine is going to live in my shower from now on.
It's also not just for soap. It also works well for deeply applying lotion or other moisturizer to the skin. The little bristles work it into every pore. And since it can be cleaned, you can remove the lotion or moisturizer from it by taking it into the shower with you to use with soap.
It's easy to clean. You can soap down and rinse the whole thing, give it a good shake, and then either lay it on its side to dry or put it into the little holder that comes with it that can be attached to any clean, dry surface with the peel-and-stick label. I just set mine on its side and the air gets to it and dries it in no time. It's also not absorbent, so it's unlikely that any nasty things will grow on it.
If you're looking for something to take into the shower with you to scrub yourself with that isn't absorbent and that's easy to clean and comfortable to use, I have a feeling you'll enjoy this little scrubber brush.", "label": 1}

ADDENDUM 9/21/2012 - After using this scale for a while, I have also found the accuracy to be much suspect. If I weigh myself 3 times in a 2 minute span I get three different results. Occasionally the results vary by as much as 2 lbs. I will therefore reduce my rating from 3 stars to 2. I still use it as it does serve a purpose.

Not only can the weight reading vary by up to 5 pounds in the space of a minute, without moving or touching the scale in any way, other than standing on it, but the body fat function has completely quit.

\u2022Due to the material used for the straps, it seem like they might stretch out quickly over time, which could potentially cause the mask not to fit right.
Reason for buying & full review:
I have been trying to get a mask since before covid started because I have medical issues that make me extremely susceptible to illness. I mainly wanted protection for when I go out in public. I\u2019ve heard good things about VogMask from some of my friends who also have medical issues, so that\u2019s why I chose this brand.
Overall, this is a decent mask. It definitely looks nice and I hope they come out with even more prints and colors. If you get claustrophobic or have severe asthma, I don\u2019t recommend you get this type because it can get hard to breath sometimes. The mask in the picture is also not the mask they sent me, instead I received one with black trim and black vents, which was a little disappointing. Their mistake with sending the wrong mask doesn\u2019t impact the efficiency of the mask, of course, so I am going to keep it instead of sending it back because I am high risk and need some sort of protection. If I send it back, I\u2019ll be without a mask and I\u2019m not risking my life over the color of a mask.
-Do I recommend this mask for people with medical issues?
Yes (depending on the issue). I feel this will give a lot of protection against illness, pollens, and other inhalants. I just wouldn\u2019t recommend it for people with severe breathing issues.
-Do I recommend this mask for use against covid?
Yes. It\u2019s much better than using a plain cloth mask like the ones you can find on Etsy or made from a tshirt. But I think you should buy the VogMask without the filters instead because the valves on this mask don\u2019t filter the air you exhale, which means while the mask may protect you, you could be spreading covid to others around you.

I would only offer one caution about this product. The massage is so deep tissue and gets those knots out, that I had an inclination to press too hard and get a small bruise. I have learned to adjust the pressure now so that I don't get self-inflicted damage anymore. lol
Once I use this Massager, it will last me for several days before I feel pain or tight again. I use it on my neck, shoulders, back and the back of my legs. I use the computer several hours a day and my body really feels the pain on the top and back of my shoulder so much so, that I started to lose sleep. I'm happy to say now, that this is no longer a problem.
For those of you who are on the road a lot, my massager came with a plug for the lighter. I thought that this would be a big plus for those of you don't want to wait to go home and use it.
I noticed that some of the customers were complaining that it broke prematurely. My suggestion would be to use a credit card that would double the warranty. At least you'll get twice as much usage out of it.
Even if your massager broke in 2-3 months, it would still be way cheaper than going to a masseuse once a month. My massage used to cost $60 for an hour session and it would only last a few days. I haven't seen mine since I purchased this awesome product. It's way better than that vibrating pounding massager.
Based on some of the negative reviews, I was hoping for a maximum of 6 months usage until it broke, but it still works fine. I use mine on an average of 2 -3 times a week. If mine breaks again, I wouldn't hesitate to order one immediately. It feels great to have my muscles feel loose again! The return on my investment was well worth it as you can see.
I gave the first one away immediately to my friend who has the same condition and ordered mine before I gave it away. Her response was, OMG!!! I hope this helps those of you who were like me suffering from muscle pain and tightness. This product is a life changer for me.

Trouble is, the only place with both the space AND a bare floor for such a scale, is my kitchen, and I really don't want a doctor's scale in my kitchen, so based on the reviews here on Amazon, I figured I'd take one more crap shoot and try this scale.
Well, I crapped out!
It's another piece of electronic junk. This scale will show me weighing the exact same weight EVERY day for a week to 10 days! I mean, it doesn't vary by so much as a tenth of a pound! Sorry, pardner, but the human body doesn't work like that!
There is simply no such thing as an accurate electronic scale- unless of course, you get something like a commercial freight scale. Trouble with ALL of these little built-in-sensor bathroom scales is: They are by nature very touchy. In order to compensate for that touchiness, the manufacturers build an Al-Gore-rhythm (Algorithm) into the circuitry to moderate the variations between readings. Some scales use a more unobtrusive Al-Gore-rhythm, which results in wild variations every time you step on the scale- while some use an aggressive Al-Gore-rhythm, such as this manufacturer does) which results in an unnatural consistency. Either way, you can't win, and you never know when any of these scales are telling you the truth.
If you're only interested in a rough estimation of your weight- say + or - 3 or 4 lbs, then this scale, or just about any other electronic scale will work for you. If you weigh yourself every day, and like to keep on top of your weight, then do yourself a favor, and get a doctor's scale (You can get a nice name-brand one on here for c. $150).
I will NEVER buy another electronic scale!!!!!!!!!
EDIT: Most of the reviews on here give this scale a positive rating for it being "consistent"; -but as I note above, it is an artificial consistency. If you doubt this, and have this scale, here is a little test to easily prove the accuracy of what I say. Use the scale for a few days, until it starts giving you the same reading every day. Then, remove the batteries for a few seconds, and then re-install them (to clear the scale's memory)- weigh yourself again now, and voila! - you will get a different reading- which will then become the constant.
I don't know about anyone else, but i want a scale that actually measures my weight; not one which uses an Al-Gore-rhythm to fool me with false consistency.", "label": 0}

Also of note, is that the 'older' product box is designed to be marketed laying down horizontally, while the 'newer' product box is designed to be displayed standing vertically. (Please see my attached photos). However, the ingredients INSIDE of these product is - while similar in it's intent - does, in fact, differ from each other. The 'older' product was more of a yellowish-white 'cream' and the 'newer' product is more of a clear-ish 'ointment'. While the newer product may contain some of the older product ingredients, it definitely - in this consumer's opinion - does NOT work the same OR as good. (I found this out from personal use and also by researching other Internet reviews of this 'newer' product). The attached photos, (of the two different product's boxes), should enlighten you as to which of these two products you will be getting with your order.", "label": 0}

We were kind of surprised to find how much they cost, I mean I was thinking maybe around fifty bucks or so, not eighty! So instead of buying it we put it in our wishlist... and not long after that it showed up in the mail. My wife couldn't be happier with it, because even though it's not as strong as her heavy-duty handheld massager it is way quieter so she can actually use it while we watch TV, unlike her strong handheld massager which is so loud that we have to pause the TV until she's done. My wife suffers from chronic lower back pain so she uses this quite a bit and says it's definitely worth $80. Yesterday a friend of hers was over, saw it on the couch, tried it out, and fell in love with it as well.
One of the neat things about this is that it has a built-in battery so it can be charged up then used without being plugged in. My wife has used this feature a couple times when she was sitting at dinning room table so that she didn't have to move the power cord from near the couch over to where she was at, but mostly she uses it while plugged in. It comes with a wall power cord and a car power cord, but she hasn't used it in the car yet.
There is a heat feature as well, which is indicated by red LEDs lighting up on the massage rollers, but the heat is VERY mild. We were both feeling it with our hands and saying things like "I think it might be a little warm", and when we would then move our hands elsewhere on the pillow we'd be like "yeah, it's a little warmer than over here". So unless ours is just defective or something, don't expect a lot from the heat feature, or I should say the mildly warm feature. There is no temperature control as far as we can tell, one press of the power button turns on the massagers, a second press reverses the rotation and activates the heat, and a third press turns it off.
Personally, I don't really care for massages or any massage devices, but my wife loves them and she loves this pillow (as does her friend) and they both think it should be rated 5 stars. She doesn't care that the heat feature can barely be felt but I think if something has a heat feature then we should be able to clearly feel when it's on and when it's not. I also still think $80 is a bit much, but the main reason I'm giving this 4 stars is because of the heat feature.", "label": 1}

You have to give it at least 2 weeks for your face to become used to it. It is hard to shave close under your nose and sideburns (attachment good for sideburns but small pop-up trimmer on back doesn't work great), but on the straightaway like the sides of your face, it shaves great. Opening the four heads for cleaning is a bit tricky and you have to make certain when locking them back in place that both sides are clicked tight or you'll have a rough shave. The fifth one in the middle doesn't seem to open for cleaning purposes so you must be that running water hard to clean it. Watch that you don't unscrew the nose trimmer when taking it off or you may think you broke it. Also watch the stand as it's not real stable and you want to turn off the bathroom lights to make certain the charge light is on (you can't see it otherwise). One final caveat, the front third of the front of the shaver is the on-off switch, so you'll find yourself turning off the shaver as you're using it unless you turn the shaver sideways so your thumb is not on the switch.
UPDATE: After using this shaver for a longer length of time, I came to realize that my initial more positive reaction to this new design (I had given it a 4 star rating) simply did not play out. It simply doesn't shave close except on the "straightaways". Part of the problem may be that the motor is powering 5 cutting heads, so it cannot provide the RPMs of most other designs. I actually returned the unit and purchased Aoohe's 3 cutting head IPX7 which can now, I see, be purchased under the Aooeou4D Rotary IPX7 designation on Amazon (this may be an updated design--hard to tell as everything looks the same). It is much smoother shaving, the ear trimmer works much better, and the on-off button is smaller so you're not turning the unit on and off by accident while shaving. I was lucky and got the IPX7 on a one day sale on Amazon at $20 (perhaps they were closing them out with a new model on the way). I understand the replacement head can be purchased for around $6. While the IPX7 cannot realistically compete with the Panasonic's or Brauns which cost at least 3-4 times more, which I've used in the past, the price is irresistible making the IPX7 a very good buy.", "label": 0}

It\u2019s pure detergent, without any water in it, but water-soluble, so you can just drop one or two sheets into the sink, swish the water around until the detergent dissolves, then you can scrub your clothes by hand. It uses less water, isn\u2019t laden with unnecessary perfumes, and doesn\u2019t leave a heavy soapy residue. It\u2019s just pure, compressed cleaning.
Notice, this is a detergent, not a soap. This means you don\u2019t have to use hot water to maximize cleaning; you can achieve best results with cold water. (Though if you\u2019re hand-washing, you may want to use lukewarm water for comfort.) If you have a conventional double kitchen sink, you can wash in one, rinse in the other, and hang your laundry up to dry. It requires very little water, and no electricity, to do your laundry with this product.
Chances are, if you\u2019re considering buying this product, you\u2019re probably considering it for its travel qualities. I\u2019ve used this detergent in the kinds of washbags or hand-cranked washing machines that many people take camping with them, and had equal success. Of course, camping washers do develop an odor over time, and this detergent doesn\u2019t eliminate that odor; you need to use the recommended washing agents that will remove odor from high-efficiency machines.
I\u2019ve read a few people complaining that you need a large amount of this detergent to produce suds. But I respond that this isn\u2019t accidental: manufacturers put lathering agents into many soaps simply because customers associate suds with clean. If you\u2019ve ever watched your laundry in a glass-door washing machine, you already know that most commercial detergents don\u2019t create suds, because suds don\u2019t actually clean. They\u2019re ornamental, nothing more.
You still need to take the usual prewash steps, such as pretreating stubborn stains. This product won\u2019t remove anything set-in or persistent, just like a standard washing machine won\u2019t. Sad to say, I failed to do this with a couple of shirts, which now have their stains set for life. If you want to use this product for maximum efficiency, you need to remain just as diligent about prewashing and stain-treating as you would if using an electric washing machine.
That said, if you travel or camp frequently, or if you prefer a low-electricity lifestyle that favors hand-washing clothes, this detergent should work well for you. I\u2019ve used it for some time, both at home and on the road, with consistent success. As long as you treat the product as seriously as you would with the detergent you\u2019d put into a conventional electric washer, you\u2019ll get clothes that are clean, minimally faded, and comfy to wear.", "label": 1}

I thought my old diaper bag was big and held a lot, but then I saw this bad boy. When I opened the Amazon box I immediately could tell that this thing was monsterous. So for fun, I thought, let me see just how much I can fit into this thing. I started gathering up things I usually have to leave behind from my current diaper bag. So I was able to fit 1 thirty one medium size zip bag filled with toys, 1 thirty one thermal bag filled with snacks, 1 thirty one small thermal bag filled with feminine products band aids and lotion, 1 reusable grocery bag, 1 small makeup case, 1 skip hop changing pad (it comes with a changing pad but I like this one better), 1 Apple iPad, 1 gallon size Baggie of coupons, 1 coveredgoods nursing cover, 1, burp cloth, 3 cloth diapers (which I don't usually use but wanted to show how much it fit, 1 set of clothes (shirt, pants, and heavy socks), 1 plastic Baggie holder for dirty diapers, 1 sippy cup, 1 bottle, 1 cell phone. I fit all this and had room for more. The diaper bag measures 16 inches tall and 21 inches wide. It comes with 2 handle straps and 1 shoulder strap. I really love that it has 2 zippers on the top. Because if the zipper gets pulled apart, which it already has, then it is easier to zip back together and get back on track.
But that is not all. I actually let my son use this bag to carry around his giant 3 ring binder to school. It not just any binder though. It is one of those fabric zip up binders by case it. It was too big to fit into a normal jansport backpack and he has been carrying it around by hand. So when I saw how big this bag is I asked hi if he wanted to try it. He said sure. He wasn't sure it would fit though. But it did. And the side pockets still had room for two of his text books.
A few things that I found as cons to the diaper bag were that once it was full, it seemed too heavy. It no longer sit straight and didn't look as nice. That to me is the biggest con. Another con is that after letting my son use it for a week, he made the zipper pull apart as mentioned above, and he also has put two holes in the diaper bag, one on each side. I wouldn't normally put this as a con, but as rough as he is on his bags, he hasn't managed to do this much damage to his backpacks.

The second time, I allowed it to sit on the surface much longer before attempting to remove the wax. The problem is that it tends to dry out too quickly. So, I waited a few minutes until it started drying and obviously wrinkling up the old wax, then sprinkled/poured a lot of additional water on it.
The difference between leaving it for 2 minutes and leaving it for 15 minutes is remarkable. Very light scrubbing removed all wax very easily. The second big problem is removing it the resulting mess. Using towels or paper towels to sop it up is *brutal* and takes forever. I used my Bissell Spot Clean Pro wet/dry vac with just plain water in the tank, and it was remarkably easy. It's a good thing to have around, but if you don't, you can rent similar systems for one-time use. DO NOT put the remover directly in the tank, that's entirely unnecssary. The cleaner can spray the keep-alive water, but just use it for rinsing and sucking up the residue. My recommendation is to pour out the extraction tank without looking at it too closely, because it's disturbing how filthy that floor was and how much crud the wax has grabbed.
So - work in small sections (I did about 4x4 feet at a time)
let it sit on the surface for as long as you can
if it starts to dry prematurely, add water to keep it moist
Scrub lightly with a stiff brush
buy/rent a wet-dru vac and rinse with lots of clear water
Do this, and it is a very low-impact and easy operation.
The results (both previously and now) are rather amazing and alarming. My floor did not look that bad - until I did the first section. The difference was astonishing, that thing was *filthy* after even normal cleaning and occasional mop n' glo. It was rather alarming, cleaning it made a huge difference in the appearance, and also in the brightness of the kitchen.

Not tart, but rather rootsy, botanical and warming. I had tried one other organic chyawanprash, from Organic India, and had reviewed that one as having a tougher texture but also a higher quantity of medicinal roots, fruits, herbs, and botanicals, and also had originally found it less sweet, and so had preferred it. I purchased about a dozen jars direct from Organic India after first ordering here, but as I worked my way through the first couple of jars, I found the texture in each progressive jar becoming tougher and tougher to work out (apparently, they dry rather quickly), until I finally unsealed a fresh jar to find a solid mass my spoon could not push or break through. I recently placed another order with Banyan Botanicals and included a few jars of their chyavanprash, and was very pleased, again, to find its consistency so spreadable and easy. I just finished one jar of this chyavanprash and will have to get back to my Organic India stock and do my best with those jars, but I wanted to come back and share my reconsidered review. These are still my two favorite chyawanprashes (sp?), but I now feel that Banyan is probably the better of the two. It does contain fewer botanicals, but that may even be by design (how many of those things can possibly be compatible all at once to our human system? after all, these ingredients are all potent!). I also had originally thought it was much sweeter than the Organic India chyawanprash, but, on second thought, I may have had that other chyawanprash after eating a piece of fruit or something, because I find them almost equal in sweetness now. If you are interested in trying both, please do. If you get a fresh jar of Organic India chyawanprash, it will be a nice treat too. If you are only looking for one, though, maybe Banyan Botanicals would be your best bet. The product is more consistent and smooth in texture, there is nothing grainy or gritty in it, it is delicious, and it is easy to spoon out from the jar. After one jar, I am sure you will return for more. Please contact your seller and request care in shipping, though, as these jars are glass and fragile, and can break in transit (it happened to me once). Enjoy!", "label": 1}

I have a lot of shaving brushes. At this point, it's kind of a collection but in reality, I do actually use them. All of them, however, required a breaking-in period. Boar bristles are the worst offenders because the come smelling like a vaguely washed pig and take forever to break in to be soft. Badger bristles are usually fairly good but still need a breaking-in. To break-in a shave brush, you do what you'd normally do to soften and condition hair: wash it with soap. I soak mine in hot water for 12 hours to loosen any stray strands that would normally come out, then hit it with a puck of shave soap and lather it up hard, then leave the soap in for 24 hours, or more, depending. But I was absolutely astounded by this brush. It was shave ready right from the box.
It's no mean feat to have something \"shave ready\" out of the box. I felt it and it was buttery smooth and perfectly worked in. I figured that it was a fluke and decided to do my standard break-in treatment. After the 12 hour hot water rinse, NO hairs came out. None. Not a single one. I figured \"okay, but once I lather this bad boy then it'll start to shed\". Nope. I hit it with a puck of soap so hard it could have turned the soap into diamonds...but no shed. Then, I left the soap in. I figured \"well, the soap will loosen the glue holding it in, that'll make it shed.\"
No. No it did not.
This thing is ready to go right out the gate. I couldn't budge the badger hair knot to save my life. The handle it's attached to is gorgeous, also. It's large and provides a firm grip but is also light weight so you won't fatigue your hand. The brush, in overall size, is about 4-5\" so it's definitely no travel brush. But what it is is a thing of beauty. A soft, sturdy brush that you can take out of the box and get right to shaving with. Lathering it is a treat and it holds heat well. My only wish is that the handle wasn't varnished, to improve grip, but that's the only gripe I could come up with and even that's a stretch. This brush is perfect. Sure, you're gonna spend a bit on it. $50 for a non-brand-name brush IS a lot but by gosh does it perform equally or better than brushes in its category. And it has the dopest name ever.

That being said, there are times when, due to age or circumstance, you can be deficient in certain nutrients that might require outside help. Case in point is Vitamin D, which it is said, most of us are deficient in due to modern lifestyles that have us indoors working under artificial lighting most of our waking hours. DHEA is a hormone our bodies naturally produce that is a precursor to both testosterone and estrogen, hormones that produce profound effects on our health, muscle mass, energy level, skin tone, and even degree of passion. As we age, we naturally produce less of it. Nature it seems, believes that past a certain age, since we no longer will be producing offspring, presumably we have already attracted a mate and therefore don't need to have the vibrant glow of health that offers displays that theoretically attract a mate. That's a lame system, but the sad truth. DHEA is somewhat of a debated supplement that everyone should do their due diligence, as in anything before you chose to ingest it. In some circumstances, it can exacerbate or can put you at greater risk for serious health risks according to many health authorities. I personally weighed the evidence and have chosen to use it regularly and can say it has a noticeable and profound effect, being of the baby boomer generation, and accordingly in the testosterone depleted age group. It's very often difficult to know if a supplement is having any effect at all, since the benefits might be so subtle or need many weeks or months to influence our bodies in any noticeable way. Not so with DHEA, at least in my experience. It gives me more energy and feeling more youthful. It induces feelings of sensual interest that may have lapsed under the radar to the point that you did even realize it. As in all new supplements you're adding, its best to experiment to see how they are effecting you, and erring on the low side to begin with. As such, 25 mg might be high for many women or low for some men, depending on your age and circumstance. Again, do your homework. As for this brant, it is new to me but seems to be reputable and safe, so I gave it the full 5 stars. Don't expect anything to reverse aging or be miraculous. But if you want to retain energy, positive mood and muscle mass, especially as you get older, DHEA might be something to investigate and experiment with. Recommended.", "label": 1}

Magnesium, 150 mcg, and calling it 100% of "DV" is bizarre. 350 milligrams (not mcgs) is considered the RDA. 60 mg of zinc, and calling it 15% of "DV" is outrageous. That would make the "DV" 400 mg, which is a toxic dose. RDA is 11 mg for men and 8 mg for women. That might not be enough for some people, but it wouldn't be healthy to take 400 mg daily for any length of time, and for many people, the 60 mg daily that's alleged to be in this product would be too much, taken long term. I doubt there's 60 mg of zinc in the product. Selelnium, 15 mg daily would be an extremely toxic dose. The RDA is 55 micrograms, not mgs.

Some of that should stick, in this form right?
While I couldn't remember that between the feedings and mommy mind, I do happen to always have these near, as they seem to always remember to take them everyday. All on account of the flavor - they are without a doubt some (if not the best) vitamins we have ever tried. Out of quite a few brands in my 3 decades of ingesting various forms, that's saying something. Not because I got them for testing purposes, which I did; but only for honest and unbiased feedback.
So the only thing I could find wrong with them was that it is hard to tell the flavors apart from each other. I will add a photo for reference, I certainly wouldn't want to place a bet on which one Orange and which one is Lemon.
At least I didn't think so, yet when I poured them out to try and discern 5 separate flavors I got it right. What part of that was luck and which part was an actual difference in color I cannot say. Looking at a pile of them I would have thought they were all the same or possibly 2 colors, so I ate one of each separately and surely enough they were not mixed but actually 5 different fruitls.
I like that there are 5 flavors but when you're only getting 3 out of 5 - if you wanted to be certain one was not Cherry or Grape you might be hard pressed to get it right the first time.
Still, not enough for me to take away a star over it since they are still by and large the best. We purchased another brand thinking they would be the same and the kids won't touch the others.
Which is ok by me.

Despite the low price, I do not find these tools \"cheap\" at all; quite the contrary.
Concerning their ease of use: for the many people who've used such things as Bobby pins and safety pins--much less their fingers and nails--to remove blemishes, these five tools make removing blemishes much easier. Their length gives more leverage and their handles are all textured, giving the user much better control.
While it would be a good idea for the manufacturer to include a helpful set of instructions, my wife and I, as well as two of our teenage grandchildren, found them very easy and self-explanatory to use. And most importantly, we found them to be very effective.
To clean them between uses, a quick rinse could suffice. (Since they're stainless steel, no worries about rusting.) If you feel more cleaning is necessary, simply use an antiseptic disinfectant solution--many of which brands can be found quite cheaply on Amazon.
The zippered case that the tools come in is very soft to the touch. If it is indeed leather then it is very thin leather. But the case is otherwise well stitched and appears durable.
One last tidbit: one of my teenage grandchildren asked what a \"comedo\" is. Comedo (plural = comedones) is the medical term a doctor, like a dermatologist, might use to describe a clogged hair follicle (pore). Blackheads and whiteheads are common examples of comedones.

In any event, there is a doctor--a dermatologist--named Sandra Lee who is famously known as \"Dr. Pimple Popper.\" She has a slew of VERY popular YouTube videos which not only describe the \"art\" of pimple/blackhead extraction, but which also show her using the very same type of tools in this Remover Kit. In some of the videos, she actually shows you how to use these very tools. It's very good info and worth the watch--as long as you're not too easily grossed out. lol

Perhaps I was expecting something gently nostalgic? Or more subtle than a Hollywood comedy (or a Hollywood film for kids). There are occasional and wonderful moments of observational humor. Mostly, though, this is broad farce.
What the writers considered to be funny: it's nearly always based on a familiar formula, one of which I'm admittedly weary: such that this will feel more like a pet peeve than an opinion. But nevertheless, the sort of thing where characters are repeatedly (and at times sadistically) tormented, for the sake of a few chuckles? Don't like it, never did: and this film relies on it. In ways both predictable and tiresome.
(Of course, some viewers will find it more to their liking. I wouldn't want to cast aspersions on someone else's enjoyment. This isn't an awful movie; it's simply not the sort of thing I particularly enjoy.)
The young actors do a fine job. Which could have been a challenge, given that most of the characters are little more than stereotypes: i.e. the kid who eats too much, the \"dumb\" kid, the \"teacher's pet\" who's a prissy tattletale, etc. Oh but they're somewhat affectionately portrayed, as cardboard cutouts go. (Except the obsessively-studious boy. Not a surprise that he's repeatedly bullied, but appalling how he's portrayed as fully deserving of every taunt and assault.) Nicolas is more well-rounded. Not terribly interesting: although--compared to his schoolmates--he's remarkably complex.
Despite being boxed-in by similarly stereotypical characteristics? The foibles of Nicolas' parents (and of the other kids' parents, and the teacher) are a highlight, and got the most enthusiastic laughs. I recognize I may feel this way because they're adults and \"can take it.\" Whereas seeing winsome, endearing kids endure mind-numbing mistreatment? Before using the word \"funny,\" I'd think of plenty of less-flattering ways to characterize their seemingly-unending woes.
Tone is everything. In Fargo many of the characters are tremendously engaging: including those who are loathsome. Even when they're placed in agonizing situations, it's hilarious.
Le Petit Nicolas, superficially, appears a charming story about a group of prepossesing (even adorable) schoolboys. Then, at length, we see them (metaphorically) put through the woodchipper. This is neither Fargo nor South Park. It doesn't feel wrong; it feels worse than wrong.", "label": 0}

However, the webmd website characterizes the total scientific research on this issue as "conflicting and contradictory." Therefore, I would regard the claims made by Purely Holistic (and other supplement sellers) about the effectiveness of their Saw Palmetto product to be excessively optimistic.
When buying any supplement, I like to see that it is made in the United States adhering to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMPs), as is indicated in the Amazon item description for this product. In addition, I always look for a seal of approval from a third party laboratory (e.g., USP, NSF) certifying that the supplement really does contain what is claimed on the label.\u00a0 In this case, I saw none. Therefore, I sent a message to Purely Holistic via their website asking whether they had third party testing or a Certificate of Analysis (COA) available for this product. I received a prompt reply that included a copy of a recent COA report conducted by Vitalabs Inc, a company located in Georgia. Their analysis found that the tested capsules did contain 500mg of Saw Palmetto powder (25% extract) as stated on the label and were free from common forms of microbial contamination. I have attached screenshots of this report.
The most outstanding feature of this Purely Holistic product Is it value. For the current price of $10.97, you receive 180 capsules each containing 500 mg of saw palmetto extract. I compared this to Amazon's current best selling saw palmetto supplement, [[ASIN:B00XUZCSPC Saw Palmetto Capsules For Prostate Health - Extract & Berry Powder Complex To Reduce Frequent Urination - DHT Blocker To Fight Hair Loss - 500mg Natural Supplement - 100% Money-Back Guarantee]], which provides only 100 capsules with the same stated potency for $15.99. This means that Purely Holistic provides about 62% more saw palmetto extract for your dollar!
I accepted an offer to purchase this Purely Holistic Saw Palmetto product with a promotional discount and review it after noticing that Purely Holistic sells a number of well-reviewed supplements on Amazon and that their product is manufactured in the United States; they also have a nice looking website. I try my best to write fair and useful reviews. I have given this supplement a four star rating due to its excellent value and ability to promptly provide a Certificate of Analysis. I deducted one star because saw palmetto may not be an effective treatment for BPH symptoms. I hope I have been helpful to you if you are deciding whether to purchase this supplement!", "label": 1}

The pattern is cute, and the outside of the diaper is incredibly soft. There are three rise settings, and the size seems comparable to other one size pocket diapers we have. The snaps for the waist adjustment are well-placed, with a row at the top, and another set of snaps below that to prevent wing-droop. The only thing that would make it better to me would be double gussets at the legs, but we have not yet had a leak, so the single leg elastic works fine so far.
You can get this a little cheaper ordering from the Alva Baby website, but you will only get one insert, and you will be waiting for several weeks to receive the diaper.
UPDATE (1-1-2014)
We've been using these for over eight months now, and they are one of our favorite daytime diapers. They have enough snaps to be able to get a good fit. We have not had any leaks or blowouts with any of our Alva Baby diapers (nor with any others, except for nighttime issues, but that is a whole different diapering adventure). We did end up buying extra inserts - our 19 month old needs two of the microfiber inserts to be able to go up to two hours without a diaper change (we haven't tried to go much longer - we like to change him at least every 1.5 to 2 hours). We dry the inserts on medium or medium-high heat, and hang the covers to dry, and after over eight months of washing every 2-3 days, all of the diapers still look new, all of the snaps still work the same as when we bought them, and we have no smell issues with the inserts or covers. Our wash routine is to rinse twice with just cold water (prewashcycle), wash once in hot water with Tide Ultra powder (no bleaches, fabric softeners, or extra scents), and then rinse twice with cold water.
The only possible negative I can think of is that we don't feel comfortable stuffing these with more than two microfiber inserts - the elastic around the legs is not quite as stretchy as our Bumgenius diapers, and I think if we tried to 'overstuff' these ones, we might risk leaks or a blowout, but this hasn't been an issue for us, because we tend to use the Bumgenius with a little extra stuffing when we need a little extra absorbency. We have used these with two microfiber inserts and one thin bamboo insert with no problems.", "label": 1}

I was interested in Purple, as their mattress commercials were intriguing, and when I needed a new butt cushion for my at-home office chair, I thought I'd go for broke and get the Purple chair cushion and lumbar support. They arrived quickly, and I put them both in their sleeves and set them up on my office chair. The next morning I was using them at my desk, when I noticed a weird burning/melting plastic smell. I thought maybe it was my computer, but I couldn't find the source of the smell. For what it's worth, the cushion and lumbar support were fine--my coccyx was still uncomfortable sitting on the 1-1/4\" thing cushion, so it didn't seem any better than my previous ~$35 chair cushion, but YMMV.
Here's where things get weird: In addition to the weird burning smell, I also started feeling my throat kind of go numb, and needed to clear my throat a lot. It was weird, it was as if someone had sprayed a little bit of chloraseptic in the back of my throat; it felt a little swollen and kind of sensitive, and had the same feel as a chloraseptic. I thought maybe it was something I'd eaten, but my wife and I ate the same thing and she didn't feel anything. The smell would come and go.
About an hour into my morning at my desk, with the weird phantom smell and my throat acting up (I thought it was just in my head), I started to get a little light-headed and feel sick. I immediately got up and left the room, and felt better, which is when I started putting things together--the only new thing in my life was the Purple cushions. So I sniffed them, and sure enough, they smelled like the burning plastic smell. My wife suggested it might be temporary, so I turned a fan on and opened the office window, and had the fan blow on the chair with the cushions all night.
This morning I hoped everything would clear up, but after working at my desk for about 20 minutes I started feeling that weirdness in my throat again. So, I've only had them for about 24 hours in use, but they literally make me feel sick. I don't have any latex allergy, or really any other allergy I'm aware of, so I have no idea what could be causing it. It could just be me--YMMV--but I will not be buying any other Purple products.
Their website says everything is non-toxic and made from food-safe rubber, so I don't know what's going on, but between the smell and the effect on the back of my throat, I'm not keeping these in my house anymore.

I was recommended by my doctor to start doing these Kegel exercises and I have, thanks to this kit!
when we hear about Kegel exercises, we often opt to think that they are only for after-birth or women of age, but I believe (and fully believe!) that even the more younger women should start doing these to ensure themselves a happier and better future!
Which is the sole purpose of my starting now, at 25. I don't have any issues as most people do who resort to having/needing to do these, I just find it it right and proper to start young and keep doing it all the way into my aged future!
The kit itself is a nice quality kit with all your needed essentials.
-Two different weights.
One ball: Ideal for beginners or women whose pelvic muscles have less tone.
Two balls: Ideal for women who are already familiar with Kegel exercises or those who have medium pelvic muscles tone.
-User guide with exercise tips and cleaning instructions.
-Storage Pouch
-Black String to extend the length of the handle
all in all, a very nice kit!
5/5
-The following rating comes from:
1 star- Packaging. (Is the item packaged well?)
1 star- Quality & Materials. (Is the item made well?)
1 star- Functions & Usability. (Does the item work well?)
1 star- Construction & Design. (Does the item look good?)
1 star- Quality Strength & Weight. (Does the item feel good?)
-How I review:
Based on those 5 mentions above, I take everything into consideration before posting a final review.
Also, I use mere common sense when it comes to rating. Is the product worth this amount of stars? Is it not? What would I improve?
Is the negative I dislike, if any at all, something that is an error in construction & design or is it something the company couldn't possibly control?
And, if all else fails, can I do something to alternate or change the ability of this negative?
All this and more is considered before I post.
I do a lot of shopping on Amazon, so I decided to take the liberty to post reviews on items I think deserve it.
Because I want people who are genuinely interested to know more about the product before they commit.
These are my own opinions, I am doing this review merely for the sake of reviewing and expressing my freedom to review.

Upon twisting the lid off, I noticed a line of nearly evenly spaced puncture holes running down the center of the seal that in most products is meant to show if the product was tampered with, or not. Usually when I order from Amazon, these seals look like they were not placed well onto the product, or a little damaged from the manufacturing process, and I don't like to, but would normally still consume the product anyway due to it being more often than not that I receive supplements with that seal in questionable condition. I am not doing that this time. This looks too suspicious for me.
As you can see in these photos, the seal was intentionally punctured by either a person, or the manufacturing process itself. I find it strange that the manufacturing process would be designed to intentionally puncture holes into the tamper seal.
I took a picture of the underside of the lid, to show that some of the protein dust did exit the tiny holes, which happened sometime before I took the lid off of it. There was no barrier between the food, and anyone who may have handled it, other than the twist-off lid. A person could have punctured the seal with a syringe filled with something that I am sure I would not want to ingest, for all I know, which I do not know. That's why the \"seal\" should be a seal.
I took a picture of the protein powder, because if you look closely, you can see brown specs. Those specs look a bit larger in real life, but I lack the HD camera to show them in full detail.I Those are globs that form when the protein powder comes into contact with liquid droplets. Liquid, of some type, clearly dropped through those punctures holes.
I was really looking forward to having a protein shake after doing some pushups earlier. This was the cheapest protein that I could find, and while I was not expecting to enjoy the taste, I was not expecting to receive something that I would suspect might be poisoned, which it might not be. I'm just having a hard time understanding why there are puntures in the seal, and why there are globs that formed with the protein powder, and liquid droplets. I'm not tasting it.
I'm sorry if these people who sell through Amazon send the containers to them without punctures in the seal. If they do, then they need to have a serious talk with Amazon about someone working at a warehouse tampering with food products. I do not like giving bad reviews, especially when I am the first to review a product. But I do not know what I am looking at here. If it is poison, then it might explain why I'm the first to review this, since I'm not even going to taste the stuff.", "label": 0}

Contrary to what the photo may indicate, I do not feed this to my plants (though I'd like to if it were cheaper. Do plants need detox foods because of all the tap water I give them??? Pls make cheaper version for plants. I am totally not serious, but maybe)
Useage:
I put ten droppers in about 2oz of water (any more and the misery of dry bitter taste is only prolonged. I found it best to shoot). I do this twice a day. I found shooting it shortly after meals aided in digestion, and I especially noticed benefits taking it at night when my stomach is hard at work from a day of meals.
Effects:
At first there were none.
I was on a cleanse to restore my gut Flora because of some serious indigestion, bloating, and ibs. No poops. Now that we are well acquainted, I was doing *everything* natural and detoxifying. I bought this after doing extensive research (I have some time on my hands as a performer during covid shut down in NYC) on the best detox aiding supplements. According to my findings there were about a million reasons to choose bio active carbon over the likes of charco. (Whyyyy charco is so much cheaper. Why can't the cheap thing be the magic for once. Meow.)
After a three week cleanse, my stomach was calmer and I had energy again (and yes, poops) I celebrated with the most wonderful pizza Brooklyn could provide. gluten and cheese, all the things I cannot digest that are meaningful in the world. Delectable. Divine. All the things these drops are not. That night, plagued with heart burn, gas, and a nasty case of postnasal drip, I went through my entire hollistic medical cabinet in my head in bed. And then I remembered. Bio active Carbon. Supposedly flushes down the bad stuff while keeping the good stuff. Yes yes. I will try this immediately. Anything to make this pass and allow sleep.
Within ten minutes of the sip of dry bitter misery, the mucus in the back of my throat was gone. Amazing. I slept well, and woke up to no burning stomach acid in the throat.
Magic.
So yes, it works. I was taking so many wonderful holistic things that I couldn't quite pinpoint the cure to my intestinal woes. I suspect now, that it was bioactive carbon all along.

We are sensitive to mold spores and other allergens, to the point that we can begin choking & coughing within 1 minute of walking into any environment with these in the air. We both stopped coughing and choking within 1 day of installation, and now it only happens when we actually LEAVE the house! Our inside air is no longer causing us breathing problems. I'm raising my rating to 5 stars because of this observation. GREAT PRODUCT!
Original rating - 4 stars:
Bought this to combat COVID. Order fulfillment,, shipping,, delivery, and packaging are outstanding. Installed today on the output duct just above the plenum so it can kill any fungus and bacteria that forms on the exchanger - especially in air conditioning season.
1st thing I noticed is that the template included in the package is the incorrect size for the unit. If used, the unit will NOT assemble to the furnace. I made another template, adding only 10 minutes to the installation time. 2nd thing I noticed is that the Phillips head screws included in the package are poor thread quality, and the wrong size. The heads don't fit into the keyhole because they're too big. The difference between the thread size and the shank diameter is too small, so once they've gone into the hole, they just spin and won't tighten. I used heavier threaded HVAC hex-head screws I had on hand, and they held just fine. Third thing I noticed is the electrical plug on the power cord sticks straight out into the walkway. Just a minor irritant for now, but I'll have to cut it off and replace it with a right-angle plug before the wife catches it with the laundry basket and pulls it out of the receptacle! 4th thing I noticed is the two green LEDs are labeled Right and Left, but the lamps are Upper and Lower, not right and left. Also, there's no way to identify which bulb belongs to which LED - I certainly won't look to see, because it'll burn out my eyeballs! 5th thing I noted is that the lower lamp socket appears to have been assembled upside down. If the locking mechanism ever fails, the bulb will easily fall into the duct because there is no support for it other than the pin lock. If the upper one fails, the socket walls look like they'll still hold the bulb in place.
Overall, this unit is SUPER easy to install. Total time from unboxing to installation completed was less than 45 minutes, including the making of a new template and getting replacement screws. I'll update this review based on its performance at a later date, probably about 3 - 6 months from now.", "label": 1}

I bought them in anticipation of my new job and getting back into the office, away from the baby, and with zero interest in bringing the full size pump with all the tubes and bottles and - no thank you! Tried them out a few times at home first and liked them already - just watch out for the suction level! The suction on these is HIGH. The levels do not match levels on your other pumps! On my full size pump, I'm usually at an 8 out of 12 of the suction levels but on these pumps, I use a 3 SOMETIMES a 4 and that's sparingly. Trust me, I tried level 5 one day and ended up with tears on my nipples, which took a few days to heal. Start low, work your way up, use some sort of lubricant if you want.
That said, I pumped at work the first time and leaked out about two ounces all over myself. On my first day. Make absolutely sure, beyond a doubt, that the parts are sealed together very well. It's not hard to put it together, but it's also a little too easy for the seal to become broken at the bottom, allowing your liquid gold to leak all over your clothing. These pumps allow me to pump on my drive to drop the baby off at my mom's, providing him with a fresh bottle when we get there. They are not discreet in profile (the pumps stick up and it's obvious there's something in your shirt) or in noise level - they are appropriately loud, not like jet engine level but also can be heard in a phone call. The batteries last a decent amount of time - almost two hours of pump time. They do take a decent amount of time to charge, but not unreasonable.
Now for the real question - does it compare to a full size pump in how much milk is collected? Almost. This is going to be different for all of us due to many different aspects, but for me, it pumps maybe an ounce or two less per session than my full size pump.
One small thing - if you get two, the pump cycles will never line up. No matter how precise you are at starting them at exactly the same time, they will never sync up. Or they will sync up for a few moments and eventually fall out of sync. This is a tiny thing but if the sound of these pumps can potentially bother you, that's something to keep in mind.
Overall, these are a wonderful option for portable pumps. Get yourself a lunch bag, some ziplock bags; or better yet some wet dry bags, and some good ice packs and you're ready to pump on the go.", "label": 1}

I had owned two pair of these prior to this pair, purchased from Academy - one \"medium\" and one \"large\". I lost one of the large ones while hunting, which had fit me but rather tightly, and the pair of mediums was too small - gave them away. So I ordered these extra large, and they're perfect, and only slightly on the large size for my medium-sized hands. So like most gloves, and most clothes for that matter, they're not correctly sized (for ya know, human beings - well, Asians maybe). So if you have small hands, order medium or large, medium hands, order large or x-large, large hands, order x-large, and XL hands - you're screwed. Postive: These ARE waterproof, or just nearly so - very close to being waterproof, despite being of a soft & quiet material (for hunting). You can put your keys or a chemical warmer or whatever in the back zippered pouch - BUT when a warmer goes in there, it's much closer to the surface than to your hands, with the main insulation being between it and your hands, so I don't think it will work well at all - but not to fear - do what I've done several times with these - just shove your chemical warmer up into the mitten part with your fingers, and they work in there, and won't fall out when you flop them open to shoot, etc. Or I suppose you could put one warmer in the mitten top with your fingers, and one more in the back for good measure, if you're down under 0 F or some such. I've used these with a release/bow, and rifle both. I will be skiing with them in April of these year, but as mentioned, already tested them for watertightness, so I'm confident. Coupled with a capacitive stylus pen, I can read books, etc. on my iphone/ipad or android when hunting/fishing. In fact, that's precisely the best use for that zippered pouch - your collapsible capacitive stylus. You can cut the thin glove fingers off to use your fingers for a touch screen or to have more feel for a minute task, or you can leave the fingers as is. I leave them. This XL is *perfect* for medium hands like mine because there is still room in the fingers to put a thin glove underneath, like a winter golf glove. If you have large hands and get an XL, or have medium hands and get an L, AND you want to wear a thin glove underneath, you're gonna need to cut the fingers off. Good hunting.", "label": 1}

Some things to note about this company is that they guarantee results so if you are not satisfied you can get a refund (big plus on buying any new beauty item!), they are made in the U.S., they use natural and organic ingredients so you are not rubbing harsh chemicals on your face (no alcohol, parabens, or sulfates!), they are cruelty free, and they have some really solid science behind the specific ingredients they use. They are very open about everything that goes into their products and even offer the reasons why each item is there.
Most important ingredients to note:
Hyaluronic acid attracts water from moisturizers and keeps it retained in your skin to plump and hydrate.
Vitamin C is an antioxidant that protects us from our everyday exposure to free radicals that can speed up the effects of aging, it also supports collagen production to help restore elasticity to skin.
Green tea is an antioxidant and has anti-inflammatory properties that helps to combat redness, puffy skin, collagen breakdown, free radicals, and helps reduce the damage done to skin by UV radiation.
Vitamin E is just like the superfood of the skin world, not only does it help heal blemishes and scars through cell regeneration but it also moisturizes the skin by absorbing deep into the epidermis instead of just sitting on the top layer.

Not only do I not have time for that but it also gets a little pricy to get one all the time. My feet being in flip flops most of the days get dry and callused so I needed something for those between times.
CONTENTS: One foot file. This also comes with 2 extra files, a charger, cleaning brush and a cover.
BATTERY TYPE: Rechargeable device.
PERSONAL EXPERIENCE: My feet are not the worse feet in the world but I defiantly could use some help especially between my pedicures. The weather where I live is dry and really plays a huge part in the way that my feet look. I have a lot of dry skin and there are parts of my feet that are cracking due to them being so dry. One of the things that I liked about this file is that it was nice and easy to use. The foot file takes off dead skin without much effort. To do both feet it took me a maximum of 10 minutes total.
The machine itself does not make a lot of noise and is sort of a quieter hum. There are a couple of things that I recommend while doing this to your feet. The first one is that don\u2019t put to much pressure down on your feet. This is powerful enough to take off the dry skin with little pressure. Also after you are done with taking off the skin of your feet, wash and dry your feet completely after you are done.
I love that this machine is rechargeable, this means no buying batteries which is always a pain. I usually charge the foot file an hour before using it and the charge lasts for the whole time that I am using the file. While I do not know how long a full charge lasts I can say for certainty that it lasts long enough for me to smooth both of my pedicure neglected footsies.
OVERALL: I like that I can keep my feet nice and smooth without having to pay the pedicure prices. I like that its nice and small and rechargeable therefore meaning that I don\u2019t have buy batteries. Good machine to have especially if you are like me and like to do home pedis in between the salon ones.

Maltodextrin is made from corn starch & I like many people nowadays are allergic to corn products to varying degrees because they are so over-used in so many products including at low enough levels that they don't always have to be shown in the ingredients list.
I HAD BEEN SCARED TO TRY THIS PRODUCT BECAUSE MANY REVIEWERS SAID it doesn't dissolve easily or can clump or tastes less sweet but none of this has been a problem for me.
IT IS THE FIRST FORM OF VITAMIN C (of many types I've tried over the years including all natural & food-based etc.) THAT I HAVE TAKEN THAT I TRULY LOVE & THAT DOESN'T FEEL ACIDIC OR BAD IN ANY WAY FOR MY TEETH OR MOUTH. With every other form of C I have felt the need to immediately then chew on a piece of xylitol gum ([[ASIN:B00ARABK20 PUR Gum Aspartame Free, Spearmint, 2.8 Ounce]] works great & has the purest ingredients with the least chemicals or additives of any of the many xylitol gums I've looked into) but not with this one. Instead it feels totally wonderful to drink & I love its slightly tart taste as some fruits have as that makes it feel like eating a piece of fruit or some fruit pudding if I have to rush while mixing the product & end up with a small clump of it in my mouth.
I FIND IT WORKS BEST TO ONLY USE 1/4 teaspoon at a time as then it's easy to sprinkle lightly over some room-temperature water which makes it easy & fast to dissolve simply by stirring with a teaspoon. C is best absorbed anyway when taken in small doses through the day because your body can't store it & only so much can be used at a time with the rest being excreted in your urine.
CHERRIES BRING SEVERAL KEY NUTRIENTS HELPFUL FOR ONE'S EYES & GENERAL HEALTH SO THIS HAS BEEN AN OUTSTANDING PRODUCT TO DISCOVER IN EVERY WAY INCLUDING BECAUSE good organic cherries are often not available or very pricey.

PROS:
Consistent reading. I took my temp orally multiple times and all of them were within 0.2 degrees of each other. Having young kids, this is especially important to me. I also took an axillary temp and both methods produced the same temp so it's accurate across different temping methods.
Quick-ish. Depending on how you're taking the temperature, it is close to the 16-second mark. When I took my temp (oral), it took about 16 seconds to get a reading. When I took our 3 week olds temp (axillary), it took almost 30 seconds to get a reading. I then tried an axillary temp on myself with an 18-22 second result. We have not tried a rectal temp.
Quick one-push on/off button. Nothing to fiddle with or hold down.
Automatic shut-off. I'm a sleep deprived parent. I'd like to say that I remember to turn everything that I use off, but I'm sure that's not the case. The GearDistrict thermometer has an auto shut-off after 10 minutes.
Comes with a case. I can disinfect it and then put it back in its case and place it back in our changing table drawer. I don't have to worry about it getting all germy (although we always wipe it down before using it orally anyway) or broken in there.
Flexible tip. Having squirmy children means that the thermometer up doesn't always stay in the same place. I didn't think that I'd like flexible tip when I read about it, but after trying it on my wriggling 3-week old, I'm in love.
CONS:
Inconsistent (and not 10-second) times. The only reason that I'm docking this product 1 star is because the result times were inconsistent and none of them were 10-second times. It is still a fairly quick product at 16 seconds, but 30 seconds with a screaming baby can seem like forever. We have a thermometer that is truly an 8-second thermometer, so if she was really sick, we would reach for that one before this one. For myself and the rest of our family, it's not as big of a deal, but I wish that it were noted in the product description.
Overall, it's a good basic thermometer. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it if you're looking for a super quick thermometer for young children, but aside from that, it's an accurate thermometer that gets the job done and I would recommend.

The extra-large version is wider and longer, but is otherwise the same. This is a very good pressure-relieving seat cushion. Anyone who sits for a long time and has noticed numbness or pain spots on their bum would do well to use one of these cushions. The cushion is reversible, with a soft side make with larger squares, and a firmer side made with a more dense pattern of smaller squares. I have been using the cushion for several days and it has definitely eliminated pressure points on my bum. Time will tell how long the cushion will last, but given its construction, I would say likely a long time. It comes with a cover of thin, flexible material for optional use. One side has thicker material with small bumps to reduce slippage, but I have used the cushion on both sides and the material feels fine either way.
I give this cushion 4 stars instead of 5 because 1) It is very thick which will change how a chair will fit your body. I had to lower my chair, raise the back and add a lumbar support pillow. Used on my recliner, it raises the seat position high enough that the built-in chair headrest feels a bit too low. 2) The front edge of the cushion, unlike other versions, has no contour, so there is some pressure on the bottom of your thighs at the edge of the cushion. This might be improved by just cutting some of the pad with scissors to create a contoured front, but it would have been better if that was a feature.
Because of the thickness and absence of contouring, I am thinking of getting the Royal purple pad version: less thickness and contoured.
I don't know how this compares with other cushions, but it does do an excellent job of relieving pressure points, and anyone having issues with that should get a pressure-relieving cushion such as this one. I tried a couple of different conventional chair pads with poor results.
11/29/2020: I've increased the rating to 5 stars because this cushion still works so well. One end of the cushion is mildly thinner. I tried this toward the front and the back. I like it towards the front since it eliminates pressure on the bottom of my thighs. I no longer use a lumbar support. I think simply adjusting the back height of my chair fixed any issues there. The cushion hasn't shown any signs of flattening or wear, which is surprising since I use it a LOT. Even the covering, which seems thin and maybe a bit fragile, hasn't failed nor does it look worn. So, I am really glad I bought this extra-large deluxe version and it is holding up amazingly well. It works far better than any other pad I have ever tried.", "label": 1}

Sprouts Voice Remedy/Cold Remedy Review
\u00a92015 Brent Reece
Okay here is the long awaited eval on the sprouts Cold Remedy/Voice Remedy!!
There was and is a small glitch in the shipping date for Tomoson reviews. So I decided to just get all over it and get it posted. This herbal remedy is specifically tailored towards relief from sore throats and the common cold.
It contains the following herbal ingredients:
Echinacea purpea herb, red root, green tea, elderberry, thyme herb, red clover herb, myrrh gum, mullein leaf, and ginger root. Bound together using natural Glycerin. With Deionized Water. Made from all KOSHER nutrients.
With my acid reflux I get a lot of sore throats and they are also a precursor to me for a bad cold that is trying to get a hold of me! Last week I had a cold coming on and used the drops as described. Within the day I had relief and continued daily treatment for about four more days!
I love holistic medicine when it works!

At that time, with the RSV scare and all, I was looking for products that would help keep them safe and sick-free. After a lot of research, and assuming some risk, I bought a bunch of Germ Guardian products, including a GG-1000 air sanitizer. When I got the product in hand, I knew that the application for this neat little thing will be limited and specific. Since I wanted an air purifier in the babies room, I did not choose to use this for the room.
The GG-1000 is a small, great looking product that sanitizes the air in a closed environment using UV-C. Because of its size and airflow it is best suited for small spaces like the bathroom or a small study, or as in my case, in a vehicle. I chose to plug in the GG-1000 in my car, which has a low enough air volume to justify using this small device. Its size and plug-prong configurations make it convenient to use in the limited in-car space too. Since the plug socket in my car is connected to the ignition key, I have left the device in there permanently connected; and it comes on when I start the car and turns off when I shut off the car.
My babies turned 1 a month ago, and the air sanitizer has been with us for the same duration, and its been there since then. It continues to work and continues to have no issues - although my usage pattern is not 24x7, which might be the case if you are plugging it in a room in the house.
Once in a while, the fan does start whining, but this seems to be sporadic and temporary - and seems to happen only as it starts. The whining, when it does come up, does stop within 5-10 minutes of starting and is not loud at all (sounds like a desktop PC when turned on).
On long trips, when the device has had chance to cycle the air in the car atleast once, it did seem to give a \"sanitized\" smell/feel to the air.
Unfortunately, I have no other way of measuring the sanitizer's effectiveness, except through the perceived comfort to mind it provides. I had purchased the GG-1000 as a refurbished product on clearance directly from Germ Guardian, and the price I paid then (@ less than 20), continues to justify the risk I took of trying an unknown product.
Given my experience with the GG-1000, if I wanted another one for a second vehicle then I would be happy to spend the full price to purchase it again (that is if it were not still available in clearance for the reduced price).", "label": 1}

Okay... I can't believe they actually did this. This seller is sleazy.
Instead of simply increasing the amount of blueberry powder you get -- which would have been the normal and decent thing to do IMO -- or decreasing the number of servings listed on the package (to make it accurate to what you're getting), they instead opted (after I complained in my review below, apparently) to REDUCE the total amount of blueberry powder you get (from 3.5g down to 2.5g) AND cut in HALF the recommended serving size from 2tsp. down to 1tsp., and are now claiming that by reducing the volume of actual blueberry powder you're getting by almost a third, they are MAGICALLY increasing the number of \"apparent\" servings you are getting by almost 30%, which is now claimed to be 48 servings versus the original 34 claimed servings (which was actually 24 servings). So, basically, by cutting the serving size in half, and reducing the powder weight by 29%, you're now getting 2x the actual previous number of servings (see my original review below).
I cannot believe people are this unethical in business on Amazon! Amazon needs to hold sellers like this accountable for their misleading advertising. Stop playing games and just deliver a good product at a fair and *straightforward* price and quit playing games with your amounts, serving sizes, and number of servings. It's very misleading -- and I believe this has been done very much intentionally.
/rant
------------------
Original review:
The packaging claims there are 34 servings. One serving is shown as being 2 tsp.
It was running out very fast, so I decided to measure how much a serving size weighed.
1 tsp weighs approximately 3.5 grams (averaged across a couple of teaspoons), thus a 2 tsp serving is 7 grams.
There are 6 ounces (allegedly -- I should have weighed it when I received the bag). Thus, the bag provides only 24 servings, not 34. Big difference! So, I was not imagining things. It really did run out fast (30% faster than it should have).
It is mislabeled as providing more servings than it actually does.
I'm annoyed because A) It's expensive, B) It ran out long before all the other smoothie ingredients I bought, which *will* last at least a month, as I expected this to do.
I wish I could get a refund. Not happy when products are mislabeled like this. I don't know if it's careless or deliberate to make it seem like you're getting more servings than you actually are in order to try to compete better with other products, as no, I would *not* have spent that much money for only 24 servings.", "label": 0}

Purchasing the product was a breeze, shipping was very quick and at more door step (what feels like) instantly, received package in a well sealed and packaged box, product bottle was also very nicely sealed inside of box with clear plastic around entire bottle and sealed lid inside of cap! I'm confused as to why a lot of the writing and details on the sellers product page is written in Spanish (I think it's Spanish), made me feel a little weirded out at first when deciding if I wanted to go through with the purchase or not but now that the product is here, I can see that the bottle is written fully in English. The bottle describes its purpose, states it's products name, has a long detailed list of all of the ingredients made in the product, cautious problems or issues to look out for / what to do if issues do happen to occur and detailed directions on how to use and apply the product to your body and skin. The provided bottle that the product comes in is very convenient for easy and everyday use, it is in a medium sized white container with a cap and flat lid, squeezable body that sits upside down for always ready product at the spout and ready to use. The smell of this product is strange, but I like it.. almost has a slightly citrus and mint aroma to it. The products cream is more of a clear / beige color with a rich, kind of sticky/goopy texture to it yet slippery enough to easily rub around and into skin evenly and quickly before it begins to work it's magic of fast absorption. A little bit of this cream will take you a long way, you do not need to over apply so this medium sized bottle should last you for a very long time, making the great quality product even more worth the asking price! There is a caution stated on back of bottle for possible redness or irritation when product is used on skin, I personally have not had any problems with breaking out or experiencing my skin to feel different / funny / burn. However, I have noticed a small difference in the tightening of my skin.. I have not been using this cream for very long but for the amount of days that I have, I am extremely pleased with my results and so excited to see what the future holds for this product and myself!

I thought I was careful \u2026 I didn\u2019t really know what this product was like, but I was willing to take a chance. I was almost certain that when I purchased this, it showed 2.5 oz for $6.99; though, now it\u2019s showing 0.25 oz (I think I\u2019ll take a screenshot of my purchases from now on). It seemed like a decent deal, since other brands were selling for about $8 to $10 per ounce. As it turned out, when I got the bottle, it was a tiny 0.25 ounce container! That\u2019s right \u2013 a quarter ounce. If you do the math, this is equivalent to $27.96 per ounce \u2013 ouch!
I went back online to see what it was that I actually purchased. Let\u2019s assume that I was wrong and my eyesite is just not the same as it used to be, and it really did show 0.25 oz. Even with this, the webpage is misleading. Right after the price is shown for $6.99, in parenthesis there is an amount showing $4.37/oz. At the time, I didn\u2019t pull out my calculator, but it seemed to make sense that the unit cost per ounce would be less (if I was buying 2.5 ounces for $6.99). But I should have checked this closer ... the two figures are completely contradictory \u2013especially at the 0.25 oz rate. How can an item cost $6.99 for 0.25 ounces (ie. $27.96 per oz) and at the same time cost $4.37 per ounce? It just doesn't add up either way. This is completely misleading, and makes me wonder if I should be checking these discrepancies with other purchases on Amazon. This is FALSE ADVERTISEMENT. And to add to this, if you scroll down to the \u201cProduct Details\u201d, it shows an item weight of 1.6 ounces. Granted, this includes the container, but when one looks at a product like this, they are mostly interested in how much liquid it holds. Again \u2013 misleading.
Once I got the spray, I decided I\u2019d still try it, since I was curious about what it would do. I can honestly say that I would NEVER buy this product again, solely based on the taste and how it\u2019s supposed to help. I can\u2019t really describe it, other than it being a completely disagreeable taste that seems to scratch my throat more than soothe it.
Do NOT buy this product. It doesn\u2019t work, and it\u2019s misleadingly EXTREMELY expensive - $27.96 per ounce. Totally not worth it.", "label": 0}

If you are at a coffee shop and need to be there for a while to get some work done, this will allow you to sit for hours without discomfort. I think there is an even deeper, cushier version, I am curious to try it out.
The seat works exactly as advertised. Helps a lot with reducing pressure on the thighs where the edge of a wooden seat might dig in. I'm pretty fit, so no extra chub on me for cushioning. I'm also used to the hard seat on my Bianchi road bicycle, so I'm not particularly spoiled when it comes to cush for my tush. But I couldn't resist this seat cushion, even at this steep price.
With that said, there are three things to be concerned about:
1. It weighs a fair amount. I wish I could take it with me to work in my messenger bag, but it is like an anchor. Definitely more than 5 pounds. You won't really be able to take this with you everywhere, so I leave it in the car.
2. It can slide a bit on your seat, despite the grippy mesh underside of the slip cover. So you might readjust it every once in a while, no big deal.

I washed may hands very thoroughly and the itching stopped. Not sure what that was about. Hopefully whatever it was didn't get absorbed into my skin, but who knows. Just leave the slipcover on, and maybe don't sit on it with your bare legs (i.e. your shorts/pants/skirt should be between the cushion and your rear) and you will be fine.
Haven't had it make my rear itch, so we should be good! Maybe from the heat exposure when I leave it in my car did something to the cushion? It's still the same shape and size, no warping from heat.

Sunscreen is absolutely necessary year round, even though it\u2019s not commonly thought of during this chilly season. Did you know that the sun is actually closer to the earth during the winter while, at the same time, the ozone layer is actually at it\u2019s thinnest? It\u2019s true! The National Science Foundation Polar Programs UV Monitoring Network will tell you as much- so we\u2019re actually at an increased risk for UV exposure, especially if you\u2019re a winter sports enthusiast. According to skincancer.org, anyone hitting the slopes may want to remember; \u201cHigher altitude means increased risk of sun-induced skin damage, since UV radiation exposure increases 4 to 5 percent with every 1,000 feet above sea level. At an altitude of 9,000 to 10,000 feet, UV radiation may be 35 to 45 percent more intense than at sea level. In addition, snow reflects up to 80 percent of the UV light from the sun, meaning that you are often hit by the same rays twice. This only increases the risk for damage.\u201d
When heading out skiing or beaching, the above pictured is a new favourite for our skincare. The Sun \u2018N\u2019 Fun description reads that this;
Chemical free, non toxic, not greasy, no white cast, EWG Rating 1.
Natural with Organic ingredients, Zinc 20%
Contains fresh and inviting (natural) scent of marshmallow & chocolate, that kids love
Can be used by kids and adults alike
moisturizing with antioxidants
suncreen sun protection.
The 1 rating means that this sunscreen has the lowest hazard rating possible, and when seventy-five percent of sunscreens and 90 percent of SPF moisturizers tested in the Environmental Working Group\u2019s \u201c2013 Guide to Safer Sunscreens\u201d were found unsafe or ineffective, that\u2019s a major plus. We typically use my homemade sunscreen for that reason but this one does appear to contain a fairly comprehensive ingredient list. It also includes the antioxidant tocopherol (from soy), which enhances sun damage protection.
When they say that it smells of marshmallow and chocolate, it smells EXACTLY like that and my daughter loved it.

I wanted to look into these as a backpacking option that would reduce the need for one or two things to pack.
Overall, I'm pleased. They have a scent and flavor I wasn't prepared for, and will take some time getting used to, but it's not revolting. In fact, it has already grown on me a little in a couple uses. It's just unfamiliar to my palate. To my understanding, this is partly because of some bittering compounds in the bark.
A little about miswak for newbies like me: Miswak comes from the Arak tree. It has antibacterial properties, and the bitter compounds stimulate saliva production. The chemical composition of the tree includes a number of natural cavity-fighting compounds. It is purported to strengthen enamel--I have no idea if that claim is accurate. Used properly, however, many peer-reviewed studies suggest this to be equally effective to toothbrushes and toothpaste (select studies suggest possibly more effective). The Arak also has mild analgesic properties.
To use this stick you chew or cut about 1/2 inch of the end off, then chew the inner part until bristles form (it only takes a few seconds), and then brush in an up and down motion on your teeth. Every so often you cut off the bristle portion and slice off a bit more bark, rinse and repeat.
In terms of flavor, I found it a little indescribable. I was trying to find someone else's description online, and someone on reddit said they taste like the crystalline form of the white powder drug. I have zero experience with that and can only take their word for it.
The packaging for these seems to pretty universally involve vacuum packaging. These are no exception. In terms of price, these were much cheaper than the Middle Eastern grocer in my town, and cheaper than a lot of bourgeois rebrands of miswak as a conscientious lifestyle choice for eco-hippies.
As for effectiveness, I've only used it a couple times so far, but it has been shockingly effective at removing the day's tartar from my teeth, and much quicker than my usual (standard nylon bristle) toothbrush. For the first couple uses I ended up with bits of the bark in my mouth that I had cut off improperly, but they're easy to get out and they're soft and not stabby.
In spite of not being accustomed to the flavor, I like it enough that I may even carry one around regularly for on-the-go toothbrushing. If you like clean teeth and also enjoy chewing on toothpicks and straws and such, this may be a great option for you to try out.", "label": 1}

I thought these might help, and they seemed as though they had started to help a little. But after only three days the material broke and it could no longer be worn. They are just too expensive to be going through a new pair twice a week.
Anyhow, general notes:
They are made of a thin, cushiony silicone, so when you first put them on they feel kind of similar to how gel shoe inserts would feel if you put them at the front instead of under your heel.
The first day I wore them it felt as though it was hard to stand and they affected my balance (just a little). After only one day though, I got used to it and could forget they were even there.
When putting them on it's a bit of a fuss to get them situated without bunching up or stretching too tight. The silicone tends to stay right where it's placed so you can't slide them on like socks. It takes some time but it's probably a good thing because it also keeps them in place through the day \u2014 well, mostly... There's a nasty tendency of the bottom to roll itself up away from the ball of the foot. But you can feel when it does and stop and readjust it.
So, the second day warring them, they did help relieve the discomfort of the calluses.. The downside was that the silicon rubbed against my toes and caused an abrasion on the top of my right middle toe. I didn't yet xx but knew I was going to have to bandage it to prevent it getting worse. At the moment it was just a red, tender patch, but continued use would certainly aggravate it further. But in spite of this I was impressed with the progress in relieving the calluses. I would estimate that wearing these for a month or two would have allowed them to heal completely.
But unfortunately these are too flimsy to be worn anywhere close to that long. On the third day the one on my left foot broke. I didn't notice until I took my sock of at the end of the day, but it is now completely un-useable. So it didn't last long enough to be worth it.
Beating all this in mind I might still day that if you weigh less than 150 lbs and aren't exceptionally active during the day then they might still be okay for you. For me though, far too disposable.", "label": 0}

After writing the first use review I was contacted by the seller, They were great! explained that I could do a 5 minute directly applied to teeth with swab. I can do 5 minutes while getting ready in the morning. I did this 3 times with substantial whitening. They are not hollywood white (I think those teeth are made of porcelain) but they are stain free and look great!
I read other reviews that said they had adverse effects with sensitivity and burning/white gums. I did not.
I thoroughly read the lengthy instructions. They are step by step and easy. My kit did not come with Desensitizer so I skipped the first step. I boiled water and put the mouth guards in while holding on to the handles, the instructions said no more than 3 seconds and they are not kidding, I went 7 seconds and they were very shrunk, but I have a small jaw so it worked for me. I would suggest doing one piece at a time as they do melt/stick together in the hot water and in the mouth once you bite down. The instructions talked about Vit E to rub on the gums so the whitening doesn't whiten your gums, my kit did not come with it but it did come with 2 swabs, I guess to apply Vit E. I broke a fish capsule and rubbed that on my gums, seems to have worked. The light you use a bright blue color, standard whitening light, I will say after you have the
mouth pieces and light in your mouth it is awkward and I drooled a lot. I did the process as instructed for 15 minutes. The kit comes with 3 vials of whitening gel. I used a small amount to test sensitivity and so that it wouldn't squeeze out of the trays, at the rate I used the product I will have 36 applications/whitenings. So for $12 it is a fantastic deal. Now to the results after 1 use, I saw no significant difference. I will continue to use the product daily for 7 days and do an update. I also want to mention that this company has a great program for reorder, lifetime free gel just pay shipping $7.99 and new mouthguards were $1.50. I did get this entire kit for free via AMzRC

My Father-In-Law needs the help of a walker to get around so decided to give this a try. He has been using one of those walkers with 2 wheels up front and you just drag the back legs. He didn't do a lot of walking with it. Once we gave this to him he has been out and about every day, even in the rain!! The seat is so hndy as he does get tired during his walkabouts. This is so easy for him to use that he has started investigating a lot more of the neighborhood. And... best of all, he is meeting the neighbors and making new friends.
It comes in a tripple boxed state. Yep, 3 sturdy boxes which actuall are heavier than the walker itself. The walker is very light but is strong and very well made. It includes the walker which folds down for transporting in a small space. There is a drink cup which slides right into the supplied bracket. A small cup snaps in place and one can take their cane along while walking. The wheels are large 10 inchers up front with smaller trailing wheels. Tires are rubber and mounted on some snazzy looking wheels. There is a black bag that hangs up front and zips open or closed. It also has a larger bag so that you can fold the walker up and slip it into the bag for traveling. They have thought of everything on this one. We are now calling my Father-In-Law Hot Rod.
Assembly was easy as it was already assembled with the exception of the cup holder, the cane holder and the bag. Everythng was in perfect working order with one exception. The zipper on the hanging bag has 2 zipper heads. One of the zipper head pulls broke off when I tried to zip it shut. I am going to remove the broken one as well as the second and install a small rope type pull that would be easier for some people with hand issues to operate. The maker of this might want to do the same. The pull will hang down about 2 inches and is easier to handle and will be a contrasting colour for easy visibility. I had considered a 4 star rating because of this zipper issue but it is such a sweet walker that I just cannot bring myself to downrating it for the zipper pull. Yes, it is that nice!!

The idea behind my purchase was as an option for my parents who are in there 80's with health conditions of arthritis and severe inflammation. So i am trying it out on myself first to see how it affects my body prior to offering it to them. I have taken about 3 cups of this per day, split up throughout the day and at this review writing I am going into my 5th day of taking it. The first day, after the first half a cup, within minutes you could tell that the water was different and perked me up. The first day, I felt great. The second day, I still felt great but you could feel a slight detox going on in your system. I was not sick or anything like that, but you could tell that things were moving more throughout your body and I was urinating more than usual, my stomach was roaring at times. But I was never sick, just felt a little different than normal. I find that usually by 10:00 p.m, I have had it for the day and need to retire for the evening. Last night (4th day), I looked at the clock and it was midnight and I felt like it was 4:00 in the afternoon and I was still watching TV. The time had gotten by me, as I did not feel tired whatsoever and it was like I was forced myself to go to bed as it was late for me. So I think I am not going to drink it after maybe 7 p.m. this evening as I did have difficulty falling asleep last night because I was so awake. Needless to say, this water is not just plain water, something is going on with it...expensive yes. But the way I look at it it will take me about 3-4 days to go through one bottle and you do not drink just this water. You drink regular water as well. So this is not your only water source. Needless to say, I have ordered some for my parents to try and it will arriving for them. I am going to purchase some for them so that they can take it for a month and see how it goes for them. I want to add that I am not affiliated with this company, this is not a paid review or anything like that. I am just a person who found out about this water on youtube and researched it out and bought some of it. I have tried other waters in the past few years and truthfully, they did tasted smoother than normal bottled water but I did not really feel different from there use.

You need this item in your life. One day you too will eat some sketchy gas station bbq, and you will be sitting on the toilet, crying, praying, and probably wishing you'd just go ahead and die and get it over with. Even the good toilet tissue will feel like rough-grain sandpaper. At some point you will stop caring if you're actually clean or not, you'll just want to go back to bed, to die in peace. And then you'll remember that you bought this item, pull it out from under the sink, knock the cobwebs off, and use it. And you too will cry in relief. Pro tip: warm water to get you clean, then cool/cold water for relief. You're welcome.
---
Ok, I'm not sure how to write a review about an item that sprays water up your butt, and not be totally gross, but I'm going to try.
First of all, the big question: DOES IT WORK? Answer? Eh... Ish. If you lived through the great toilet tissue shortage of 2020, and you were hoping for an item that would completely replace the need for toilet tissue, you're going to be sorely disappointed. HOWEVER! It does greatly reduce the amount of toilet tissue that you'll need. Also, if you think that one bottle will be enough, you're going to be even more disappointed.
I read a lot of reviews of people complaining about the air-hole at the bottom leaking. Either those people got defective bottles, or they've improved the design, because I don't even put a finger over the hole, and mine has never leaked a single drop of water. I did once accidentally knock the arm (with the sprayer head), back into the bottle, and ended up with water EVERYWHERE... soaked my shirt, the floor, pants, everything. At least it was warm water!
My main issue is that it doesn't spray hard enough to actually get you clean. What I end up doing is use the bidet, then wipe, and repeat about 3 times, until the tissue is clean. I get pretty much the same results from using wet wipes, but at least the bidet is cheaper than wipes and tissue, and doesn't clog the pipes like wipes do.
Because of damaged nerves in my back, the motion of twisting around to wipe is incredibly painful for me, so I appreciate that I don't have to wipe as much. And it's convenient for me to use multiple times, because the sink is right next to me. So it works for what I need. Whether it works for you or not, you'll have to decide. Hope this was helpful. Y'all be blessed.", "label": 1}

A couple of weeks after purchasing the products, I received a letter in the mail saying that the product shipment had been delayed due to some production issues that they were experiencing. With the letter, they included 2 additional free rollers to apologize for the inconvenience, which I appreciated. I patiently waited, and waited, and waited.. And finally after about another month to a month and a half, I finally received the product. So after receiving the product I had already waited nearly 2 months. I know that this was not a typical experience for most buyers and I don't want to judge too harshly because the seller was friendly, apologetic, and offered the free rollers. However I did mention this because it's important to know that this item is shipping from another country and will take a couple of weeks (minimum) to arrive. I just wanted to mention that and now I will continue with my product review:
Pros:
- Comes with 2 "extra coarse" rolling heads, which are very easy to clean and replace
- Comes with a traveling pouch to carry your items in, if desired
- Comfortable design to hold and very easy to use
- Roller is not too harsh on your skin. When rolling over your skin, it feels nice and smooth almost as if you are getting a foot massage.
Cons:
- Slow shipping due to international shipment
- Unit contains no battery at all and will only work when plugged up. It is not a unit that can be charged up and used as needed. The unit is advertised correctly, I just wanted to mention this in case someone missed it in the item description.
- For tough calluses, this unit doesn't quite do the job. I have a few tough calluses on my feet and you can smooth them out, but you have to roll over the area many times to smooth it out because either the unit doesn't spin fast enough or the included rollers are not coarse enough to handle tough calluses. I plan to purchase the higher grade coarse roller heads in the future to see if those help.
Though the price was little high for my taste, all in all, I like this device and it is probably one of the best options for removing calluses painlessly and effortlessly. Before purchasing this device, I used a PedEgg for smoothing out my calluses, but decided to buy this before the PedEgg is just awful. The PedEgg blades dull out quickly, it hurt my feet when trying to remove tough callus marks, required a lot of manual effort, and just did an all around worse job than this device does.", "label": 1}

I\u2019m an oily monster with giant pores. It\u2019s sad, but true. I decided to finally try out a face vacuum and see if it did anything for me. It did, it really did! But I have learned I need to follow directions.
The first time I used it, I was a bit skeptical and thinking it might work like those nose peel strips, you know, where it pulls up the gunk so it\u2019s sticking out all over and your nose looks like a hedgehog? Yeah, that. So I casually reviewed the instructions, set them aside, and went to town sucking face.
Real talk, I was going to post some gunk pics, but they were just too funky. But trust me when I say I ended up with about half a pea sized pile of nose goo. It wasn\u2019t pretty, but it was pretty satisfying. Also a bit horrifying- that was in my face?! Gross.
It worked so well that I decided to try it out again the next day. This is where I should have read the directions, which clearly state that you shouldn\u2019t really do that. The vacuum worked, it sucked out some more blackheads, but not nearly as much as before, hallelujah. Buuuuut. My nose felt a little sting afterwards, like it was lightly sunburned. I figured no big deal, it will go away. It did go away, but you know when you get a little sunburned your skin gets rough and then peeely? Yeah, that happened. I got a bit of flaky-nose.
To be clear, this was MY FAULT, I should have followed instructions! So I\u2019m just saying, when you get this, you should follow the instructions, okay? Learn from my mistake. I also gave myself a little accidental face hickey, because I didn\u2019t pay attention when the instructions say to keep moving. Lesson learned, no more flaky nose or face hickeys!
I found the best way to clean the cones is with a qtip to get the gunk, and some rubbing alcohol for an all over wipe down.
This little machine really sucks, no pun intended, and it does a great job. The price is very reasonable, and as of now, there\u2019s a discount you can click on, so it\u2019s even more value for money, woot! I really like this, and I\u2019ve already recommended it to my friend.

The bag cost me $59.95. It turned out to be much more useful than I thought it would be, particularly at my job. With the bag on the side of the walker, and with the zipper on the large pocket open, I am able to put a ream of paper in the bag to carry it to our copier. I am able to put a gallon size bottle of water in the same large pocket to carry it from the refrigerator to my office. Tonight we had a lecture presentation and I was able to fill the large pockets (having bought a 2nd bag thru Amazon.com which arrived yesterday) with spoons, a container of milk, a bottle of Coffee Mate, Sugar, foam cups, all to bring to the refreshment table in the room for the presentation. It feels good to be able to do these relatively simple chores again, and not depend upon others to do them, as I have had to do since 9 months ago when i first came down with a series of physical injuries which coincidentally led to a relapse of a plasma cell cancer which had been in remission for 14 years. I do only use the pockets for carrying items at work and at home. I use the walker outdoors only to walk from my house or from my office, or from one of my many medical appointments, to a waiting car service. The bag's zippered pocket stays closed and flat while outside, keeping the bag nice and flat and unobtrusive, as I feel I must be while outdoors. At 4'6", having lost over 5 inches in the past decade due to my illness, it had become very hard walking around the city's sidewalks filled with people so much taller, who it seemed were always walking into me, having not noticed me down there while talking on their cellphone. At home I add a removable tray to the walker, and now with two pockets, it has become so easy to transport things all over my house. So, I really love this walker bag for helping me feel so much less helpless than I did 2 months ago. And, as I stated up above, the 2nd bag that I bought thru amazon.com was 19.99, whereas the 1st bag cost me $59.95, which is a whopping $40 more, from a medical supply store in Manhattan. Oh, and I should mention how much less I saw the exact same Drive folding walker model on amazon.com selling for, than what I paid for it in the same medical supply store.

Test and play with the program while it is held in RAM memory. Install it to your drive from an icon on the home screen. It will erase the drive disk first & install, OR install alongside your current op-sys which I would recommend you may want to do (if your current op-sys is working ok) at first.
Why pay $11 for this disk?: Because thats peanuts compared to around $100, and it will boot right up without errors in my experience. I tried downloading my own as I have done before, and it did not want to boot for some reason.

I have Osteoarthritis in my spine and in my knees and that is why a lot of people take H.A.
People take MSM by mouth or apply it to the skin, mostly using it to lessen inflammation.
They take MSM to try to relieve pain or swelling from:
Osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis
Bursitis, tendinitis, or tenosynovitis
Osteoporosis
Muscle cramps
Scleroderma
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders
Headaches or hangover
Premenstrual syndrome
Inflammation in eyes or mucous membranes
People also apply MSM to the skin to try to treat problems such as:
Scar tissue or stretch marks
Wrinkles
Wind or sun burn
Wounds, cuts, or abrasions
Or they may take it to try to treat gastrointestinal problems such as:
Chronic constipation
Ulcers
Diverticulosis (a bowel disease)
There is a whole range of other reasons people take MSM. This includes obesity and liver problems, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, gum disease, snoring, infections, lung problems, Alzheimer's, HIV, and cancer.
Since I wasn't quite sure if it was working or not I did not submit my review in the 14 days I was asked. However, I cannot just spit out a review when I'm not finished with it yet. Now that I am I do recommend this supplement to anyone that is diagnosed with any of the disordered listed in this review.", "label": 1}

I installed security cameras inside my house a couple months ago and from the very first night they were online they began capturing strange objects flying around my house. And they are absolutely not bugs or dust. I guess you can call them orbs. Lots of orbs and very consistant. But they can only be seen on the cameras at night when they are in night vision mode. Can't see them during the day or with the naked eye. And it has been driving me crazy trying to figure out what they are and if they have some intelligence. So I decided to purchase this pendulum board after reading all the positive reviews about it. I was going to get a Ouija board but I was worned by some not to. Ouija boards are supposed to open doors for all spirits even evil ones. That spooked me so I decided to get a pendulum because they are supposed to be the safer option. Although I must admit I really didn't think it was going to work despite the reviews. But it does! And perfectly too! I ask all yes and no questions and the crystal swings perfectly in line with Yes or No on the board. Never Maybe. I first asked if there are spirits here with me and it immediately started swinging back and forth in a perfect line with Yes. And not just short little movements either. I mean eal long steady swinging back and forth from one Yes to the other on opposite sides of the board. And my hand, arm, and body was absolutley still as could be. Next I asked if the spirits are good and it continued to swing back and forth in a perfect line with Yes on the board. Then I asked if any of the spirits here are bad and the crystal began to move in a different direction immediately until it swung in a perfect line with the words No on the board. Which made me happy. Then I asked if my sister who passed away 3 years ago was with the spirits and immediately it began to change direction again until it was swinging in a perfect line with Yes on the board. I am completely blown away by the experience and overwhelmed by the feelings this pendulum board gave me. I know most of you who are reading this doubt my word and don't believe it. If I were you I wouldn't believe it either. But for the few bucks it cost anyone can easily afford to try it out for themselves if they want. It is amazing!", "label": 1}

With such a simple meal, it is imperative to have fresh and tasty ingredients. I've tried many red sauces and some were quite good. According to my husband this has been the best sauce. He says it beats the enchilada sauces he has had in most Mexican restaurants.
Unfortunately, I cannot offer my own taste appraisal because this product is not vegetarian. Frontera makes two red sauces -- one that is in a pouch [[ASIN:B0048IFVCM Frontera Pouch, Enchilada Skillet Red Chile, 8-Ounce (Pack of 6)]]and this product that comes in a jar. The product in the pouch is vegetarian. The product in the jar is not. After examining the ingredients on the pouch, I had made the assumption both products were equal and purchased the jar (because it was a better price) without rechecking the ingredients. The sauce in the jar has chicken in it. If you are vegetarian, don't purchase the jar option unless it is for family/friends.
My husband's rave reviews of this sauce have led me to order [[ASIN:B0048IFVCM Frontera Pouch, Enchilada Skillet Red Chile, 8-Ounce (Pack of 6)]]. My husband says that the product has a rich tomato taste and the roasted garlic inside the sauce complements the sauce well. The sauce spreads easily and is not thin or tomato paste thick. The 16 oz. jar was perfect for covering eight burritos (using six inch tortillas).
I purchased my Frontera enchilada sauce in the 16 ounce jar from my local co-op for about four and a half dollars. The price on the vegetarian/pouch version on Amazon is cheaper than my co-ops (which was charging about three dollars for the eight oz. pouch).
Ingredients: Water, Tomato (fresh tomato, tomato juice, calcium chloride, citric acid), roasted tomato, New Mexico Chile Pepper, Apple Cider Vinegar, Salt, roasted onion, roasted red bell pepper, roasted garlic, sugar, chicken base (cooked chicken and chicken juices, salt, sugar, maltodextrin, chicken fat, dehydrated onions, citric acid, turmeric, natural flavors), vegetable oil, xanthan gum, and spices.

What I say:
I work third shifts. I have a dark colored bedroom and even darker window blinds. Yet still too much light gets into the room for me to sleep without a \"blackout\" mask.
I do not want any pressure on my eyeball. I just do not see how that would be good/healthy for anyone. I also like to open my eyes if I hear something strange. Masks that touch the eyelids keep me from easily opening my eyes. (I do not mind the dark as long as I can open my eyes.)
This mask is dented AND PADDED within so I can open my eyes fully. It is like waking up to a dark room.
Even if you have a LARGE nose, little-to-no light will get through. Neither I, nor my husband, saw any light, no matter if we slept on our backs or sides.
I tested it out by washing it 4 times in the washing machine and even tossed it into the dryer. There was no shrinking, the elastic was still like new, and the material was soft.
Of course, I will come back and edit this review should anything change within the next year or so. Masks, no matter how well made, do not last forever; however, I feel that I should get at least a year of rest out of them.", "label": 1}

Some things to look for:
Tank size. This one is 300ml which is not uncommon, but some are smaller. For me, bigger is better as it means less refills.
Recharging. All are pretty much the same here. Some use USB-C and some are Micro USB. I prefer the USB-C, because its faster and easier to insert into the port. This flosser has a micro usb port.
Tips. These are about average and work as expected. Expect each tip to last about 6 months with regular use.
Modes. Several modes are offered with pulse and low and high pressure most common. I like the high pressure this offers to really get in the tight spots and loosen up food particles.
Some say it\u2019s \u201cmessy\u201d and it is I guess. You have to sort of bend over the sink and water and gunk will run out of your mouth, over the flosser and your hand into the sink. I actually like seeing what is being removed, so for me it\u2019s OK and a whole lot easier than flossing with dental floss. I just keep going around and around until no more particles are coming out. Sometimes it\u2019s two tanks, sometimes it\u2019s three. I\u2019ve learned to use warm water as my teeth are cold sensitive.
I have one larger space between to bottom molars that always bleeds a bit from this, but its still OK to use it in that situation. You could lower the power, if needed.
If you haven\u2019t used one of these before, you\u2019ll be pleasantly surprised at how good it works to remove bits of food. Also, it really refreshes your mouth too. I always do a quick run around the top and bottom of the jaw/cheek juncture where food can collect. You can hit your tongue if you want to, say if you use this first thing in the morning. It\u2019ll tingle a bit and you could use a lower setting or pulse, just for fun! I also go around the gum line. It\u2019s very effective for me and I\u2019d say it takes about 95% out, which is terrific. I do notice that if I go back in with dental floss, I sometimes find some that this missed.
I like to brush every so often too and as mentioned, I also use an Oral B dental flosser from time to time, so I can best maintain my teeth and gums. I think this combination works well for preserving and maintaining my dental and oral health.

Lately I have found myself trying out more of the natural and organic way of doing things. I like the fact that this supplements can be used as a pain reliever, mood enhancer, as well as an anti-inflammatory to help relieve joint pain and to help sharpen your mind. I just love the fact that I can come by true natural organic supplements with very few ingredients. The product is gluten, dairy, and soy free, just to name a few, which is another great factor for this wonderful product. It does have a light scent to it that is very earthy with a hint of ginger smell. It makes me feel better about what I am putting in my body. There are so many supplements out there that have way too many ingredients that it takes away from the main product that you are after. My husband has often told me my memory has always been very good but lately I have noticed myself having scatterbrain. I also suffer from joint pain. After taking the Turmeric Boost pills for a week, I find myself bending and stretching a little bit more without the aching feeling that I normally have. I have also been feeling better with my mind sharpened. Having depression I also have seen my mood be uplifting a bit. A good alternative for someone like me. Again a natural and organic way of doing things.
After trying out this supplements, I absolutely love turmeric and this one has proven easy to take with no stomach after effects, though I've only been using it for a few days, I think it's a fair amount of time to state that I do feel my intended results, which is a lessening of pain associated with joint issues I've had for a long time. There are some benefits other than that which I will discuss, but I will say it is a good anti-inflammatory agent, thus relieves my inflammatory pain and discomfort. I also love the fact that this supplement is organic. It's gluten free (something we need to be careful with). It is effective in reducing or relieving pain associated with inflammation, which is what I take the supplement for, however, I will say that I really appreciate the other things I've read about related to turmeric. There have been studies that turmeric is effective in depression and mood elevations, and helps with prevention of certain kinds of cancers. Turmeric is a powerful antioxidant, and that is also very good to take!

They are not dry and hard like other protein bars on the market. I've tried Alani Nu and Quest Bars (plus others brands) and these by far taste the best. I bought the variety pack to try out all the flavors and all of them tasted very delicious. Like a candy bar. The box that it came in was a bit damaged, maybe from transit? But the bars were fine.
For those who are interested to know about taste/flavor
My favorites were:
Dark Chocolate Raspberry: Tastes just like the flavor name. Dark chocolate and raspberries.
Peanut nutter: Tastes like chocolate and peanut butter. Kind of like a Little Debbie Nutty Bar.
Salted Peanut: White chocolate. This one tasted like a softer version of a PayDay bar.
Chocolate Chip Salted Caramel: I didn't notice any chocolate chip but it did have caramel in it. Tastes like salted caramel.
My least favorite:
Caramel chaos: had no caramel and it tasted like a chocolate protein bar just not as dry as the usual protein bars you get. Really confused on the name and flavor. If I had purchased this flavor alone instead of the variety pack, I would have been disappointed.
Chocolate chip cookie dough: tasted like cookie dough (you wouldn't be able to tell the flavor without reading the name) with some bits and pieces of chocolate chips. Not bad but I personally wouldn't go out of my way to purchase this flavor.
I would repurchase the variety pack again since I really enjoyed 4/6 of the flavors. Do read the instructions on the box regarding ingredients, allergies, and storage conditions.
EDIT:
So I'm finishing up the rest of the bars and I noticed that the last caramel chaos bar is completely different from the first bar I tried from the pack. The first bar was completely chocolate inside with no caramel and the last bar had a very thin layer of caramel on top with a peanut butter like filling with bits and pieces of chocolate chip. Did they mispackage some bars into the wrong wrapper?? Were any of these bars the actual caramel chaos because neither of them tasted anything like caramel.
Finished my second box and I have come to the conclusion that some of these bars are PACKAGED INCORRECTLY. Caramel Chaos and Salted Caramel have been different bars... Caramel Chaos has been packaged with a Salted Caramel bar, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough bar, a plain chocolate bar, and an unknown one (which I'm guessing may be the real identity). The last Salted Caramel bar I had was a plain chocolate one, similar to the first Caramel Chaos bar I had. No caramel, just chocolate like a Tootsie Roll. The bars are delicious but I'm not really happy to find my bars being packaged incorrectly.", "label": 1}

The SoClean container has rounded corners. The decals were really well thought out to match up the flat pieces without gaps that were not planned for. I recommend planning out your project steps before beginning. I was unsure which side was considered left and which one was considered right. By starting with a piece that was was symmetrical, it made for an enjoyable and quick project. I started with the piece labeled Front. It had a notched out space for the control panel. After attaching it, I continued with another piece that was not questionable: the top. I made sure the decal was aligned with the edge and well centered. The print of the decal reminded me of wallpaper. The alignment is especially important anywhere there will be an adjacent piece. The right side and the left side were those adjacent pieces. In the end, my idea of right & left was not what the manufacturer had intended. Starting with front and top kept my misconception from becoming a mistake. The decals come off well, and remained intact, not tearing or peeling. Like wallpaper and large decals, air gets trapped underneath. To avoid that, I aligned an edge, then pushed outward from the middle of the decal and smoothing outward pushing out air along the way. The 5 main pieces were easy to apply and only a little air was trapped. It came out easily by either pushing the bubble toward the closest edge, or lifting the decal and smoothing it again.
The last of the pieces to apply were the small strips around the sides of the lid, the skinny strips. To my delight, the print matched up really well. It was not perfect, but it didn't matter. I only had one spot that ended up with a little bit of wrinkles. It didn't bother me becuase of the busy pattern, and the fact that the SoClean has a rounded body being wrapped in a flat decal. It was bound to happen. I call that a WIN!
The leaf print is a nice crisp green leafy pattern over a stark white background. It dresses up the bedside \"equipment\" and makes it look like a decorative item. And with the green and white, it should be extremely versatile, just like a plant in a white container would be. I know I made the perfect choice for me. I highly recommend it!", "label": 1}

They keep a bandaid on easily, keep water out, and reduce pain from an injured finger.
Background: I cut off a chunk of my middle finger two days ago at work, and they gave me a bandaid and a blue \"finger condom\" as they called it. It immediately made my life easier. I had painful cuts on two other fingers from a woodworking project and cut one of my toenails too short (causing slight pain to walk lol), so I figured these would come in handy.
Shipping: I ordered them at around 3 am on nov 9 with 2 day shipping, they came nov 10 (1 day early. That was nice!) They came in a white box (pictured) sealed in plastic.
Sizing: they are a little over two inches long, so they don't make it all the way to the base of my longest finger but do on the others. They snugly fit on all my fingers and toes, but are a bit tight on my thumb and big toe. At work I use medium sized vinyl glove. For further size reference, I am female with average sized hands and abnormally long toes. I cut one of the cots shorter for my thumb (see last photo) and it is no longer too tight.
Material/durability: these are made of latex, and seem to be about as thick as a typical latex glove. They seem pretty durable. I tested it by both slicing and poking it with a knife (seen in video). It is obviously not cut proof but it took a fair amount of pressure with a knife to slice through it, and I dragged it across the serrated edge and it did not break. It took a relatively hard poke to make a hole. For the price, they are much more durable than I expected. The latex has a pretty good grip on everything, but that may go down with longer use. They do not roll up my finger at all. Even the one I cut short is staying on my thumb with no problem. With no bandaid they work with a touch screen, but with a band aid on underneath it it is harder to use the touch screen.
All in all, pretty amazing for the price. If you are bigger than a size medium in gloves/id you are a grown man I'd recommend getting these ones in a larger size.", "label": 1}

Yes, I know you can remember or write down the number and enter is manually, but what gets put off often doesn't get done, so I can't complain about the convenience. The weight also seems to be pretty accurate if you keep the scale in the same place on a hard surface and step on it the same way each time. Different foot placement or leaning a bit can give inconsistent weight, but that's true for an extent on any digital scale so you just do it the same way each time and i doesn't vary more than one would expect from normal daily weight fluctuations.
The body fat % is not an exact science on these monitors regardless of brand. It only measures the path up and down your legs and through your hips and not your entire body. Legs tends to have more lean mass (bones, connective tissue, etc...) so the formulas have to make some assumptions based on height and weight to extrapolate that measurement. The sales are also very prone to hydration and how well your feet conduct electrically, but that's the nature of the beast. Most people have different body fat percentages on different parts of their bodies, so it's all just an average estimate anyway. Compared to skin fold calipers, the scale reads mine as a few percent higher than the calipers. As with most things, the truth is somewhere in the middle and based on comparisons to photos of people at different body fat percentages, the calipers seem more accurate, so the scale is measuring mine a couple percent too high. Your mileage may vary.
What's been frustrating lately is that because I've been gaining muscle mostly in my upper body, the scale is correctly measuring as weight gain, but since it's using the same amount of lean mass in my legs which hasn't changed much at all, it seems to be calculating the extra weight as fat so my body fat % number is increasing, but I know visually and from clothes being looser that I'm getting leaner. I tried setting the scale to the "lean" setting, but that reading is way off the other way being far too low.
I wish there was some way to enter in your own personal adjustment somewhere in between lean and regular or at least have Fitbit do the adjustment after the fact based on your profile, but there isn't. If there was, I'd give it five stars. I'm giving it four because its a great product within the limitation of what it does. Digital scales do need flat hard surfaces and standing the same way and electrical body fat measurements are estimates based on lots of varying factors. It doers what it does well. WIFI uploads are fast and trouble free and the batteries last at least six months, so it's pretty much a set and forget device which is what I wanted.", "label": 1}

If you have boxed products for your tank that you\u2019ve never had to alter in some way, give it time! You\u2019ll certainly find different uses and ways to use the same products. I would recommend this product because the suction power is good as long as your water level is high enough for the tub to catch enough water to pump. I use this for emptying this nano tank of 12\u201d high sitting on my nightstand, and a few 3.5g nano tanks in high places, and several others at different levels. I have a sump under my 200g and it fits under there well! I have to take off the extra tubs and tilt the device so the water can catch (suck) after the water gets too low. DO NOT SUBMERGE ENTIRE PRODUCT! But the product WORKS WELL! I purchased TWO! I have a lot of tanks. I do not know how long the batteries last, because I have not had to change the batteries after I changed my sump (3 tubs at the bottom of my tank with about a 10\u201d clearing to get inside the tubs, at least 25g each) and all my nano tanks (4). It cleans well, but the sock it comes with is EXTREMELY small! It would be more helpful if it were longer. It is. Not like the filtration sock on my sump, and it gets dirty FAST! It\u2019s safe to use with all sorts of fish because the bag can catch and release anything you accidentally catch (ie fry you didn\u2019t notice were there), because the bag is easy to manually dislodge without accidentally coming off during use. I use a hose in the sock position (it is an interchangeable part that comes with the product) to do quick changes to expel waste really fast without a long drawn out water change, and a fast refill from a lower bucket to a higher sitting tank to slow the water flow back into the tank without a lot of pressure, or stress to the fry/fish.

After reading all the reviews I elected to purchase the product and edit the product to suit my needs, as I do ALL my products in this hobby! If you have boxed products for your tank that you\u2019ve never had to alter in some way, give it time! You\u2019ll certainly find different uses and ways to use the same products. I would recommend this product because the suction power is good as long as your water level is high enough for the tub to catch enough water to pump. I use this for emptying this nano tank of 12\u201d high sitting on my nightstand, and a few 3.5g nano tanks in high places, and several others at different levels. I have a sump under my 200g and it fits under there well! I have to take off the extra tubs and tilt the device so the water can catch (suck) after the water gets too low. DO NOT SUBMERGE ENTIRE PRODUCT! But the product WORKS WELL! I purchased TWO! I have a lot of tanks. I do not know how long the batteries last, because I have not had to change the batteries after I changed my sump (3 tubs at the bottom of my tank with about a 10\u201d clearing to get inside the tubs, at least 25g each) and all my nano tanks (4). It cleans well, but the sock it comes with is EXTREMELY small! It would be more helpful if it were longer. It is. Not like the filtration sock on my sump, and it gets dirty FAST! It\u2019s safe to use with all sorts of fish because the bag can catch and release anything you accidentally catch (ie fry you didn\u2019t notice were there), because the bag is easy to manually dislodge without accidentally coming off during use. I use a hose in the sock position (it is an interchangeable part that comes with the product) to do quick changes to expel waste really fast without a long drawn out water change, and a fast refill from a lower bucket to a higher sitting tank to slow the water flow back into the tank without a lot of pressure, or stress to the fry/fish.

Due to his allergies and severe asthma, we have been forced to take a sheet to sit on. All of the plastic backed, water resistant mats we have found have toxic chemicals in them. This of course means that many times we have finished eating and had damp clothing. This outdoor picnic mat was listed as being non-chlorinated and made with a PVC-free formula. I ordered and waited for delivery with fingers crossed. that it was as good as described. And it was!
When this outdoor picnic mat arrived, the first thing I checked for was chemical smells. I could not smell anything! Next I opened the mat and was surprised at how large it was. At nearly 6 feet long, this picnic blanket/mat is large enough to an entire family to enjoy a meal outside together. I also found a flat blow up pillow that was tucked neatly into the folded mat. I took this outside early to see how well it would hold up to a damp ground. I walked over most of it and left it outside for over an hour. I brought it back in before the sun could cry up anything. The fabric side was completely dry! The "plastic" side was visibly wet. I hung it up on the clothes line and it dried in no time. The next test was how well this would fold back up. A few accordion type folds, and then a few flips, and the velcro matched up and it was secure to carry! Photo #3 shows the picnic mat folded back up after we used it to sit under the stars last night!
Okay, so the final test was how well my son liked this. I surprised this weekend with a picnic lunch in the front yard. He was super excited and absolutely loves this picnic blanket as much as I do! We will be having regular picnics in our future!
I would highly recommend this for those who deal with allergies and/or asthma. Or if you are simply trying to avoid exposure to toxic chemicals. The quality of this blanket can not be shown well in the pictures. The "plastic" backing is much more durable then what I expected. And the fabric side is smooth and soft. If you are not a picnic person, this would be a perfect "beach blanket" as well!

Instead, that high rent store sold them for the same amount as they are offered here ($69.95). I think that's a rather high price for mass produced insoles----but that said, used in the right application, these things are very nice, very comfortable.
I have wide, flat feet----no arch to speak of. These orthotics offer noticeable arch support and are said to align the foot to take pressure off ankles, feet, possibly even knees and hips depending on your individual situation. I've had very bad luck with television infommercial orthotics in the past----actually caused a significant knee injury that took weeks to heel and of course, I pitched those. That same knee had a tingle of looseness the first full day I wore these----but it passed and since then, no issues and lots of comfort----and I wake up the next day without the normal heel pain I've had in the past. These seem to be doing something right----comfort and possibly taking pressure off my feet. It's still early (have had them under two weeks) but I'm encouraged----guardedly optimistic. That's the good. The bad is that unless you have some extra room in your shoes, these might take up too much space and make your shoes/sneakers too tight. They might elevate your foot to the point where your heel slips out of your shoe as you walk----if they are low back shoes. This is a substantial insole. If your shoes "just fit" and there is no removable insole in them----these won't work. They will make your shoes too tight to wear. If you have a removeble insole----it's possible this can replace it and leave you enough room for comfort----but also possible this will be slightly larger/thicker and you'll have the tightness issue. I've found that for some of my roomier but uncomfortable shoes (like a pair of Puma sneakers), these are wonderful---they make shoes far more comfortable. But for tighter shoes I have (like a pair of Hippopotamus casuals) these insoles take up way too much space and they made that pair unwearable. It's case by case. I suppose if you really like these, you can bring them when you buy a new pair of shoes and put them in before buying. What I am very curious to find out is how long they will last. The salesman told me that if I remove them from the shoes daily and let them air out, they can go a couple years. If that's true, they're probably a good investment.", "label": 1}

I am sitting here with sweatpants and a thermal shirt on, and the rolling motion is still felt thru my garbs. The instructions on the box do not say anything about \"skin,\" and just mentions \"affected areas.\"
Now I will go the opposite direction with this... let's now assume I am now in only my birthday suit, and I want to rub in a lymphatic massage oil, or any other herbal oil or body butter... can I use this roller to roll over or to apply something to my skin that also helps my lymphatic fluids to move? The directions on the box that this ships in do not mention anything about using this product with oils or creams. THEN i did just look at the sales/info order page here on Amazon and it does mention using it with these products. I only checked here to double check it's usage. Good to know, but I with this was printed on the box or came as an inserted instruction. But, now I know and will proceed to try that!
The only other negative that I noticed, and this is probably just me, but I felt my soft tissue on my upper outer arm kind of hurt, like light bruising, after rolling this over that area a few times. That sore feeling did go away after a couple minutes. I got this becasue I have lymphedema swelling and liquid retention mostly in my left leg, becasue I had uterine cancer and 50+ lymph nodes removed 16 years ago. My arms are fine, but I do have fibromyalgia sensitivities, so that is probably why this would have felt like it hurt. (Kinda dumb observation on my part I admit, being that I am the one who controls the pressure! Not the fault to the product! But I guess it doen't take much pressure to use this ball, and that can be a good thing.) THis said, compared to other lymph massagers, like wooden U shaped sticks and wands, they tend to massage up a larger and flatter swath, involving more skin area with each stroke. This one is more like a rolling acupressure point. I an not tell which method moves the lymph better... I am going to guess this is personal preference.", "label": 1}

I went to visit family out of state and my beautiful niece borrowed and kept it. (Along with a few other items I brought with me, that\u2019s what aunts are for) That meant I had to replace it since I loved using it on my hair.
This one is smaller than the other one I had and it is MUCH lighter. I opened the box and saw the brush, instructions, and 2 clips to hold up your hair. It is a very pretty purple, white, and silver color combo. It also has a nice loop so you can hang it up on the wall.
This has 2 heat settings, 140 degrees, 160 degrees, and 180 degrees in Celsius or 284 degrees, 320 degrees, or 356 degrees in Fahrenheit. They list both which I really like since I am much more used to Fahrenheit than Celsius. There is only one button to select your heat setting. You just cycle through until the light is where whatever temperature you want is.
My hair is thin, when shorter it has a tendency to curl just enough to be annoying but not enough to be a real curl. It flies away (frizzes) and I usually wind up putting it up in a ponytail just to get it out of the way.
I waited for this to heat up (super quick, almost no time at all) and I started brushing my hair with it. I did a simple underbrush and completely finished my entire head in about 15 minutes or a bit less.
My frizzes/fly away hairs were mostly gone. I still had a few but I had no product in my hair to help. I just wanted to see what this thing could do by itself. I actually don\u2019t mind my niece keeping my other one (I did give it to her, she didn\u2019t just take it). This one pulled less of my hair out with it and I didn\u2019t burn myself. I\u2019m prone to burning myself on hot things.
This one doesn\u2019t have the regular brush bristles but has open slots to brush your hair with. It doesn\u2019t matter, it worked and did so quickly.
I got lucky and was able to receive this at for free or a discounted rate for review but all opinions are my own. I am not required to give a good review, just an honest one.

I typically don't use shampoos at all because they strip my hair unnecessarily; I have been a devoted co-washer for the longest time. Because I have natural hair (3c-4a, medium density, and slightly porous) that's prone to dryness and the summers are hot and dry where I live, I've been trying to up my protective treatment game. I typically prefer natural sources for moisturizing and strengthening (stuff I can get from my pantry or refrigerator) but I've been trying out Dr. Miracle's Daily Anti Breakage Strength Cr\u00e9me for my edges and ends and thought the Miracle Repair kit would be good to try on my next wash day. Well yesterday was that day.
The Experience:
The shampoo is non-lathering which indicated to me that it did not contain harmful sudsing agents. Even still, I diluted it in water using less than half of the amount provided. My scalp felt immediately clean and then soon after my hair felt noticeably stripped (by wash day I have significant buildup of Jamaican Black Castor Oil and other emollients on my hair). I tried to ignore my nagging doubts, knowing I still had two condition treatments to go.
The conditioning treatments were both very cheap in feel (as opposed to other luxurious oil-rich more natural products -- you know the feel I'm talking about) yet I foolishly proceeded, hoping to be proven wrong. Neither of the conditioners left my hair feeling softer, more manageable, or moisturized. After the final rinse and absorbing the excess water with a t-shirt, my hair was frizzy as all get out, dry-feeling, and tangled in all the frizz. Basically this "repair kit" had me playing catch up with all my other regular products just to reverse the damage and I was unable to detangle without breakage. Unacceptable.
I typically wear a twist out, but this morning I have yet to see the dried results because I went with a head wrap this morning, not wanting to take my twists out (they were still a little damp because of all the Komaza coconut leave-in and Jamaican black castor oil I had to slather on to compensate).
Never. Again. ALWAYS go with your gut instincts, people. And just like with processed food, if you can't pronounce or identify most of the ingredients in something -- DON'T USE IT.
Next wash day I will be returning to my regularly scheduled programming of co-washing and detangling (with something luxurious like Komaza's Moja conditioner), and then moisturizing and sealing with Komaza's coconut leave-in, Dr. Miracle's Strengthening Creme (jury is still out) and plenty of JBCO. I may have to throw in a deep conditioning treatment of ripe mashed avocado, coconut oil, honey, and vitamin e as well. Lesson learned.", "label": 0}

I slouch often due to the pain in my lumbar spine from dislocated discs and because of the counterweight from my size DD chest. I'm on pain management, so I've been prescribed a couple of types of braces. Once, I was prescribed a clavicle brace, which was awkwardly uncomfortable. It was 100% unbeneficial and did not work at all. Not to mention, the design was not very intuitive, and I could not even put it on by myself. A few years later, I was prescribed a $1500 back brace, which also did not work. I could put it on myself and it was more comfortable than the clavicle brace, but no matter where I positioned it or how tight I made it, it provided absolutely no support. The other day, I began reading a lot of Amazon reviews, looking for some sort of back brace to help my posture which would help elevate some of the pain in my back. I'm on enough pain pills and pain patches to kill a horse, yet I still have pain. Instead of increasing my doses, I was hoping there was something else I could try - a last ditch effort before asking my doctor to increase my pain meds. This back brace is great! It is not as constricting or as uncomfortable as the two prescribed braces I've owned. It holds my posture upright and is easy to put on and easy to adjust. The material is soft and smooth, which helps tremendously with the comfort. I am so thankful for this back brace! It does hurt a little bit (more like 'sore' than 'hurt', I suppose) around the front of the underarm area (the area where the brace goes underneath your arm), but it helps if you wear a shirt with sleeves underneath the brace. With any device that is pulling on your body, it is going to 'dig' into your skin a little and cause soreness, so I'm not surprised by the 'digging' sensation. It's not enough to bother me or to make me want to return it, especially with a shirt on underneath the brace. A shirt makes the soreness almost nonexistent. In the end, the brace definitely does its job, and it does it well - a lot better than the expensive, prescription braces I've owned. Overall, I am very satisfied and very pleased with this brace.

This is very much like the others that I have tried. There are buttons that adjust the temp, turn it on and toggle between Celsius and Fahrenheit. This brush says that it has "ionic" strength. I cannot verify this.
There are a few differences between this brush and the others I have tested in recent months. This one has the buttons on the back of the handle instead of on the side. One button turns on the ionic function, one button is the temp/on off control. This brush heats up very hot, up to 450 degrees, hot enough to sizzle your hair if you are not careful! The one thing I love about this brush vs the other brushes I have tried is that it does not have the odd little red balls on the ends of the brush tips. This brush has flat and smooth brush "bristles". (No give to them, they are rigid.) They snagged my hair much less.
I have frizzy hair and no matter what I try, ceramic, ionic, metal, etc.. My hair looks the same after each, so if there is some magic to the way "ions" work with my hair, I am not seeing it. I am not using a heat appliance to make my hair healthy. If you notice a difference then this will please you because it has the technology to help your hair.
How does it work? It functions much the same way as a flat iron except this glides through the hair instead of along it. It takes the same amount of time to use this as a flat iron, I didn't notice that it saved any time at all over a flat iron. It still must be used on perfectly dry hair. (That means heat protectant spray needs to dry before using this. Steaming your hair is probably not a great idea, but do as you feel is needed, I am letting my hair dry first.)
It gets my hair smooth and sleek and is as easy to use as the flat iron. It is good for days where the humidity is going to bring out the frizz or when I want to go a day between washes but my hair has frizzed into a bozo look, even in a pony tail. This can tame the frizz in about half an hour if I am combing my hair flat, or in 4 minutes if I have my hair in a pony tail and am taming only that. This style of straightener brush snags less hair during use than the other models I have tested. That is a major bonus.
I am not sure what is easier to use or which one I prefer. I have both the flat iron and this brush sitting there. I alternate between them because I don't have a favorite.", "label": 1}

After some research I decided no that's not it. I really need a good soft glove that I could wash and reuse so I started researching cotton gloves. I found MANY different brands and types of cotton gloves. What I need them for helped narrow the search, as well as read hundreds of reviews on several brands. Sizing was important also, as I have a bit larger hand (I think). In medical gloves, depending on manufacturer - I can fit a medium or if they run tight, I grab a large size.
I live in the Midwest and this winter has been fierce to say the least! My fingertips and cuticles are EXTREMELY dry and I find myself picking at them as they catch on clothing, etc. Plus, they are also so very tender to the touch. So, that helped narrow down my search. I found a few that looked great, but the reviews were mixed. I needed a slightly fitted glove, not tight, but not too large where they would fall off. I finally found these - Madholly Moisturizing Cotton White Gloves. I'm not sure about the \"moisturizing\" part as there isn't anything inside of them i.e. silicone or gel that would enhance using a cream product on the hands and place the gloves on and wear to bed - which is what I was looking for. I took a chance and bought them. They are reasonably priced and I could have them delivered quickly. I first tried using cuticle cream the first night. No change. I then tried Aveeno moisturizing cream for extra dry skin and that didn't make a difference either. Last night I decided to go back to basics and used petroleum jelly and I packed it on my fingertips, rubbing each finger nail and cuticle with it working it in and placed the gloves on and went to sleep. I woke up a bit pleased. They feel a bit better. I'm going to do it again tonight and continue this night time ritual, in hopes my fingers will be healed!
As for these wonderful cotton gloves? They are made of a really nice cotton and fit pretty well! Seeing the words \"Hand SPA Gloves\" also in the title, I thought immediately of paraffin wax, as that was the route I was going to try next. I'm sticking this out, as I think with consistency and time my fingers will be healed and I will save myself some money.

Most of them are shipped in a plastic container and to save yourself a workout you will have to warm it up in a microwave or oven and now you have just leached plastic crap into your butter. So, opt for the wafers you can easily handle them and they melt fast in a double boiler of course. Okay, so you got your butter and if you wanna use a little coconut oil with the butter...go for it. A 2:1 ratio on that one. Grind up any herbs and put them through a sieve for a fine powder mix with your butter, use pipettes to dispense product into mold. Takes a couple of hours to solidify. I found the best way to pop one out is with a chopstick. Like, literally the best way. Do not be discouraged to get these if you do not own chopsticks...something like it will make life better. You can use a suppository applicator. I used Sephure. You can find these on amazon. But you can also just put them in with a lubed up finger (coconut oil is awesome).
Try not to be intimidated with suppositories. Sometimes you gotta go behind the back door to receive better and more effective results. This method is great for those who's gut is not working efficiently or has leaky gut. Suppositories get right to business as you are able to reach your liver, uterus or any lower organs and even the blood without product being ruined in transit via the stomach. Vaginal issues, hemorrhoids, cancer, personal detox, fibroids etc. etc. this is just a great method. For those who want to use medical marijuana and don't want to deal with the THC effects. Go through the back door. CBD oil is another option. Go through the back door.
The herbal suppositories I used include plantain, slippery elm, mullein, golden seal root, yellow dock, marshmallow. I did two separate ones. With one mold set I used this herbal blend and added a capsule of acidophilus. The other I added L-glutathione. Seriously tho, you can really get creative. Have fun and empower yourself in your health. Be curious and educate yourself on herbs and nutrition. Nobody else is gonna care about you as much as you. Peace

I have owned another LED light that was only 1500 mw and the LightDoctor is 8000mw, which is 6x as powerful. I can't even use the other LED light any longer as it just is so weak compared to this one. I have used this LED on acute injuries like twisting my ankle dancing or overdoing it hiking too long and the pain is gone after the use. I think you have to understand that this unit is as powerful as a $6000 laser unit. So honestly, it is an incredible deal what they are asking for this light.
I am mainly using it on my chronic injuries of back pain, torn ligaments, and muscle strains. I have found that it has sped up the process of healing and gotten me out of pain faster even if the ligament isn't fully healed yet. I have been using it on my spine daily in my yoga practice in yoga positions. Not only is incredibly relaxing but I know it is treating my spinal cord which is a profound thing. I have also been using it on my brain injury which LED have been known to help repair brain damage.
The unit itself is well made. I love the 1-minute timer on the unit. As my old LED light I gave myself severe burns when falling asleep with it on accident. That will never happen with this unit as it automatically turns off. It also has a switch if you want to use it for less than a minute which I have been doing on my brain. The plug has a screw in part that goes directly into the light. This prevents the cord from falling out which used to happen on my other LED light. The case is so well made and makes it easy to transport the light to my office. The book that it comes with is well written and makes you realize just how many ways and symptoms you can use this light for.
I use it on my clients in every session after I work part of their body. As I know the light will prevent them from being sore later. I even just bought another light to rent out in my private bodywork practice.
The customer service was great. I had an issue and called them and got a person on the phone! They were kind and got my issue resolved right away. I have also emailed the other contact for technical support which I got a prompt reply on.
I take it with me when I travel internationally as I honestly can't be without this little light. I look forward to buying a few more units to rent out to clients as it has been so helpful for my clients.
I only recommend this LED light to all my clients. There is a lot of junk out there in LEDs on the market so beware! Even the LED on my biomat is so low in potency it is not really medicinal, there is nothing quite like the LightDoctor. I think every household needs one.", "label": 1}

After blowing out the heels of the plastic part of the orange superfeet twice, I decided to change it up and took a chance with the SOLE Dean Karnazes DK insoles shown here.
GREAT DECISION!
They form to your feet while providing superior support for the long run. I have had minimal issues with my feet (or knees) since changing, which is saying a hell of a lot for someone as rough on their feet as myself, especially considering I have bunions, med-to-high arches, and bone spurs. I put a different pair of these in my running shoes, hiking boots, gym shoes, and even work shoes. I have had about 4-5 pairs now since about 2010. I can get at least a year out of each pair and that is with a lot of miles. One could probably go much longer than a year with one pair of these inserts, but I try to prevent issues with my gnarly feet these days and regularly changing up inserts and shoes is one approach.
Incidentally, I also tried the SOLE thin sport custom for soccer cleats and dress shoes, but found they did not treat my feet as well.
Key points:
-Don't overheat in the oven! This will ruin the arch support. If anything, pull them out early, they will form over time in your shoe anyhow
-If you do heat them, remove from oven and immediately put them in the shoe you plan to use them with, lace up tight and stand in semi-athletic stance for about two minutes (feet shoulder width apart, knees directly over toes, slightly bent)
-It's a good idea to put new inserts in new shoes, though they will still work well in shoes you have used for a while - I just like to form them up together, seems to work best
-I like to form the inserts to each pair of shoes I have, though I have switched them between various shoes with good success (comfort and support is still maintained)
These inserts have been life-changing for me. They allow me to keep doing all the stuff I love without being slowed by injured feet. Worth every cent and then some!", "label": 1}

I would preface it by saying that the color temperature of these lights are 3000K! This looks (in my unprofessional opinion) like 5000K or \"daylight\" CFLs. I enjoy the 2850K GE Reveal light bulbs and I really like the L Prize 2700K from Philips compared to these 3000K ones, but they are half the price. Be very aware that this is 3000K, I believe 3000K looks really nice in the bathroom / tiled room, but somewhat off putting on its own. I use a combination of the L Prize 2700K and 3000K in my apartment (12 bulbs = 10_3000K 2_2700K) and it really works for me. If you are used to \"daylight\" CFLs, go for these ASAP as they use a lot less energy and are suitable for rapid on/off.
//Not sure if Amazon will delete this, but I paid ~$27 for a 2-pack at HomeDepot [if you delete, please just change to \"Other Retailer\"] for these, which is by far the cheapest I have seen LED lightbulbs so far. These are NOT rated for closed light fixtures, but I put them in there anyway just to see how fast they would degrade (Hoping to upgrade to newer LEDs as the tech evolves).
Economics:
$14 per bulb @ 10.5 Watt vs 60 Watt. ~ 83% lighting energy savings.
Long rated life and rapid on/off makes this a no-brainer for bathroom application.
Style:
Color Temperature of 3000K much worse than 2850K or 2700K.
Beautiful Spherical Incandescent Style (vs. buglight LED design or nasty coil CFLs)
Performance:
Enclosed Fixture (TBD) - So far, glass is barely warm to the touch, seems fine to me. Even if it loses its life in 3 years vs its ridiculous 18 year rated life, I will be perfectly happy. Plus I want the new color changing LED tech from Philips Hue and LIFX in the future anyway.
Cheap ceiling facing IKEA lamps - seems to run as cool as my L Prize 2700K bulb, although I have no fears for the L Prize since it is torture test rated by the US Department of Energy.
Brightness:
800 Lumens means nothing to me, I think you need at least 4 of these lights to really brighten up a room (~300 sqft).
Tips for Philips:
Please explain the difference in manufacturing process vs. the L Prize bulbs. Is the only difference color temp & these are made in China (vs. L Prize made in USA)?
4 stars for being the cheapest LEDs around.", "label": 1}

(It came "free" with my purchase of a Soniclean vacuum cleaner.) Since I could find not a single review anywhere on the web of this particular device, I thought I would share my experience. I found the size and shape of it to be quite comfortable. My 8-year-old daughter was able to use it easily (with me watching closely!) The biggest thing about it is that when it is left on the highest setting, it produces remarkable amounts of steam! I ran it at full blast for probably 30 minutes before it ran out of water. That was enough to clean both sides of my queen-size mattress on one occasion, and enough to clean all the grout in a full sized shower on another occasion. The steam button is conveniently placed on the handle, and the lock feature is wonderful (I have four small children in the house!) The attachments are the cheap part of this steamer. The squeegee head was slightly warped and left streaks on my window, the furniture cleaning pad has elastic that is starting to come off right out of the box, and the bristles on the scrubbing head were all permanently melted and bent after a single shower scrubbing session. I would rather have cheap accessories that I can replace on a solidly built body that will last a long time, than the other way around, so I can live with that. Also, the instructions are barely there, basically just a picture of the device and all the attachments, so be prepared to look things up online if you have never used a handheld steamer before. There is a mistake on the instructions, and that is when it says it take 30 seconds for steam to form. I timed it at 2:52. Just under 3 minutes is a fine time frame for me, just not what they claim it is. After trying it out all over the house, I found that my favorite use for it is washing windows. It takes 10 seconds to squeegee the window, another 30 seconds to wipe up the puddles along the bottom, and voila, clean windows! It was worth $50 just for that! Just find a 50-foot extension cord before you start, so you can do the whole house in one grand rush. I am giving this steamer three out of five stars, and adding an extra star for the Soniclean company, because they were very communicative and helpful with a service issue I had with the vacuum cleaner that I bought at the same time.", "label": 1}

I love that it has a built-in rechargeable battery and can be charged over usb type-c. This makes it incredibly portable, allowing it to be charged with the included wall adapter, a portable battery bank, or even a laptop computer. And with more and more devices using type-c cables, it just makes it very easy to only have to carry along one cable to use across all of my electronics.
It comes with 7 white noises, 7 fan noises and 15 natural sounds, bringing it to a total of 29 sounds to choose from. I honestly only use about 5 of the included sounds myself, but still great to have the variety. It also has a built-in RGB night light where you can not only control the color, but also set a lighting mode. I particularly like using the pulsing mode, however you can choose a mode to cycle through all the colors, you can set the brightness, and can simply turn it off entirely. Best of all, it will remember your selected options even after powering down, so you don't have to re-select them every single time you use this. Lastly, you have the option to run it indefinitely or you can set an auto-shutoff timer of either 30, 60 or 90 minutes.
The build quality is quite good. Buttons have a nice tactile click, the volume dial spins just fine and it has a nice rubber ring at the bottom to keep it from sliding around your table. It's relatively small, measuring about 4.7 inches across and about 2.7 inches tall (up to the button which is the tallest point). The instructions claim that it has a 7 hour battery life, and can be charged up in approximately 2.5 hours. I've never had the battery fully drain on me so I cannot confirm those numbers, but I can say that the battery life has been more than long enough for my usage.
So far I haven't had any issues with this device. If after some time I spot an issue, I'll be sure to update this review with my findings. Also, with Amazon prices fluctuating often, it may be useful to know that I purchased this at a price of $24.99 in June 2020.
Pros
- Rechargeable Battery allows portable usage
- Uses USB Type-C which is great!
- 29 different sounds (though I typically only use about 5 of them)
- RGB nightlight w/ customizable color and lighting mode
- Built in memory allows it to remember settings after shutdown
- Good build quality and reputable brand
Cons

1. Box had obviously been opened and there are no instructions (one previous reviewer mentioned need to follow instructions). These facts indicate this is a returned product.
2. As to missing instructions. I did not find assembly to be intuitive but think I have figured it out (except for one part no idea what it is).
3. This may be an excellent product but it looks to be crudely and cheaply made. On the job use will be needed to understand best method to use.
4. The battery is in the long pvc tube (charging port is at end of that tube) so apparently must be connected to the engine to use. If so, there is no hand scrubber feature. The colored piece is the actual engine. Purpose of the wand is unclear. Perhaps to provide a further reach. Even with the wand, it is necessary to stoop to reach the floor. Bottom line, does not seem to be the product for easily scrubbing in tight spaces. With wand, the device is almost four feet long. Without wand, almost two feet. Wonder why such a long battery. Who knows?
5. Purpose of each brush? Who knows?
6. Red light in the battery (the long pvc piece) probably indicates the battery is charging. Will it turn green when fully charged? Who knows? How long to charge or tell if full charge? Who knows?
7. During assembly, it was necessary to force connection between wand and engine. Connection between battery and wand was smooth.
8. Connection between brush and engine does not seem to be complete (not a tight fit). Will see how well brushes stay connected when I operate the scrubber.
9. As mentioned by other reviewers, speed (torque) seems to be minimal but that may improve upon full charge.
10. The box describes this as a "multifunction power scrubber." What is the "multi" feature? Who knows? Perhaps fact there is more than one brush. As to the "power" part, see comment 9.

Feel: more energized than if I didn't. When I took these regularly, the afternoon tiredness didn't exist anymore.
Obvious: I notice that my nails grow faster and look better (less torn cuticle area, break/tear less) when I'm consistent with these MVs. I really do like them. Before using these, I'd experience the typical mid-afternoon tiredness to the extent that if i'm at work i'd have to go take a quick nap in my car. It was as if I was pregnant-tired. I don't like the taste of coffee and don't really do soda/coke, so it was pretty challenging for me to get things done after 2pm. Within about 3 days of using these I could definitely tell a difference in how I felt overall. It may have been a placebo effect but it sure was worth it to just feel over-all more energized and a better sense of well being. Afternoon sleepiness is now a thing of the past. Your pee will be bright yellow for 6 to 8 hours after taking this, with the intense colour tapering off as the hours wear on.
Contents: Have you looked at the contents of these? The daily values are one of (if not the) best I've seen while comparing many other brands of MV's. It even has 100% recommended DV of iron for women, plus so many other things in higher value than other MV. This explains why the dosage is 2 (kinda big pills :)) But it has a sweet vanilla-like coating so that helps with swallowing them.
Verdict: This formula really works. Even when doing workouts like T25/P90x3 or any other consistent workout program, I try to make sure I take this daily as I feel it helps with recovery and helps lessen that burnout feeling you can get with consistent HIIT workouts. Overall, A difference is quickly noticed within a few days of not keeping up with these. I try not to be dependent on any supplements for long term, but these I depend on.
Suggestion: take no later than early afternoon. I felt as if it messed with my sleep on an occasion where I took it after 4pm. This statement is inconclusive as any other number of other factors could have affected my sleep that night( literally didn't fall asleep will 5:30 am the next morning :( ) - Haven't done an experiment per say or tried taking it that late again...so just a heads up it might be possible.", "label": 1}

When the alarm set time was reached, the lamp lit. That's is basically what I wanted in this product. The problems started with the lighting of the panel. It is so bright, I could easily read by it. It keeps me awake. I've read that melatonin production is inhibited by any light source in the room. I went to a guy who installs window tinting and got some scraps of dark tint material and put several layers on the face of the clock. That helped, but then the clock face light quit altogether. For me, that was a good thing, even though I could no longer read the clock at night. I used a separate timepiece with a push-button light for that purpose. The supposed sunrise simulation is bogus. The designer has it step up in brightness, rather than a smooth gradient.
Interestingly, the guy who gave me the tinting material told me that people like me come in routinely for the same reason.
I'm an electronics engineer and have been programming lots of devices for most of my life. I found this thing to be very complicated to program and the icons are very hard to see, even after I removed the tinting material. When I'm sleepy and want to be sawing logs in a few minutes, the last thing I want to do is to start studying a new device, or try and remember the steps to follow to do something that should be really simple. I haven't quite thrown it in the trash, but it's getting close.
So, as a message to alarm clock manufacturers, consider building a device that does not unintentionally disturb your customer's sleep (what a concept!!!) by making it emit no light unless a button is pressed. Make it a simple and cheap device that simply activates an external receptacle (15A) in a gradual way by using a D/A converter with more than 4 bits. That's it: forget the radio, the CD player, the tweety bird, the lamp. I already have a lamp next to my bed. If I could turn it on and off with a button on the alarm clock and have the lamp SLOWLY and GRADUALLY come up to full brightness in the morning with an option for an aural alarm (just in case), I'd buy it. I want it so much that I'm considering building it.", "label": 0}

I have squished them, had them in the car, sat on them and they held together. So after many years, it was time for new ones, the old ones still can be used but they are not as plump an more, these are 5 years old. The gel is no longer clear and over time some as seeped out. I have looked and looked for gel packs but never thought to look on Amazon for this brand until the other day when I was using the old one, the light bulb kicked on and I found this 5 pack for a very reasonable price compared to others out there. And they were the product I have been used to. I have Osteoarthritis an am in lots of pain so I have these all over the house, one at the computer, one at my favorite chair, one in my bedroom, one in the refrigerator for a bad pain day. Now, these are very cool just at room temperature, I might add and sometimes they make your lower back sweat. SO what I came up with is a cover for them. I bought 13x13 washcloths here on Amazon, it was a pack of 4. Now you could use 12x12 but the 13x13 is the color and thickness I wanted. SO how do you make the cover? open the washcloth now fold it in half, making sure the fancy edge is up at the top ( if you look at image you can see it) . Now using straight pins pin along the bottom and up the side making sure all is even. I do not have a sewing machine so I sewed these by hand and all on the outside not turning them inside right ,and with needle and thread. I plan to put a button on them with just a thread loop to hold it closed ( good thing I saved old buttons, now if you do this, make sure your button is flat or your back will feel it). When all is said and done, your gel pack will stay in place, and not be sweaty against your back and even if you freeze the pack, the little pouch will protect your skin from the frozen object. This is where you can pick out one or more of those fancy thick facecloths with your favorite theme or color on it. the 13x13 one, you could fit two packs in one if you wanted extra padding.

After going through several models, from different manufacturers, these Howard Leight Max 1's have emerged as my current favorites.
For starters, they claim to be the best selling polyurethane ear plug, and are used throughout industrial applications. I figure if they are good enough for a construction site or factory floor, where workers use them day after day, that is a good start that they are more than adequate for my needs at home.
They are smoother than other plugs, and this enhances the ease of insertion. While, at least for me, it takes a few attempts to get the ear plug fully in, these Max 1's go right into the ear canal fully on the first shot. They are also airy, and roll down easily despite their larger size. This makes them fast to put in, so the work can begin without the frequent delays I had while inserting other ear plugs.
Once in place, it is important to hold them in place for 30 secs to let them fully expand. Once that happens, they are the most comfortable I have used, and they feel like a \"mini marshmallow,\" exerting just enough pressure to stay in place and stop the noise, but nothing more. They are totally comfortable, whether for an overnight sleep, or working a long day while in place.
They have a 33 NRR, which puts them at the top of any ear plug for sale that I have found. When I compare them to other ear plugs with the same high NRR, I fnd them the quietest of any ear plug that I have used. After all, this is what you use an ear plug for anyway!
The selling point of these Max 1's is that they are a little larger than some other products. This is a selling feature to those with larger ear canals (typically males and Caucasians) that do not get an effective seal with standard size, or slim fit ear plugs.
As an added feature, I like the bright orange color. I find it a safety feature to let folks know that I will not hear them if they start talking while I am working.
They come prewrapped in a clear plastic pack, that is even perforated for easy removal.
In short, this 10 pair makes a perfect fitting trial, before committing to purchasing the larger box to confirm if it serves your needs.", "label": 1}

These by far are the best and do the most for my feet, back and legs in general. I have had lower back surgery to remove a sever hernia, have had plantar fasciitis for 10 years and also ligament damage to my foot (thank you special forces) so needless to say at 31 my lower half is pretty beat up.
Its hard for me to stand in one place for more than 10 minutes and it always feel like my left foot is going to explode, I\u2019m a triathlete so I still puts lots of \u201csoft\u201d miles on my body, these really do allow me to run more. Don\u2019t be fooled, there is no one product that can really take all the pain away but these do a great job of mitigating the pain not only when I run but mainly allow me to get back out there day after day. With other products I could mentally muscle through a workout but I would be smoked for a few days after, even with lots of icing and therapy. These do a great job and are very comfortable once you get used to the air moving around, they actually feel like they capitulate you forward slightly with the air moving back to from and vice versa with every step.
Even at 215 pounds these really do stand up to punishment, I played 6 hours of tennis my third day wearing them. You can simply throw them in the washer and they clean right up with no issues as stated in their directions. I will say that my first pair had a malfunction and one of them flattened out, I immediately ordered a second pair from amazon to get them the next day because I didn\u2019t want to go without them. The return policy was great, I sent back the bad pare and then immediately sent me another, no hassle and no issues.
I will wear these for the rest of my life and don\u2019t go without them when wearing shoes (u can wear them with flip flops but I choose not to). I literally take them out of my dress shoes of all shapes (square toes, wingtips, ect) and throw them in my running shoes then into my cleats for softball. They literally feel great in any shoe.

First order I was able to choose among more colors. First order was red. Handles are different from first order (no thumb rest) but cushioned which is nice. Expandable height and rear width seems a tad less than the first order when comparing side by side and pulling out tape measure. First one taller than the box of the second one when storing first one for spare parts. Now wondering if box was mislabeled like for the petite model. Sure hope not. Not sure which order is the latest model. User says the new one is still comfortable and he likes it even the new handles and color. I don't think he notices that it may be like 1 inch shorter in height and back width when walking with it. Sitting and handling are the same for him he says. Rollator gets a lot of attention at the adult day care center (ADCC).
First rollator I ordered about 1 year ago. User uses it on average 5 days a week at the ADCC. Shuttle driver, user and caregiver (me) love it for it folds sideways and is not heavy. Its flexible for fitting in tight places like small doorways. User is slew footed so the extra foot room near the back wheels keep him from tripping and falling. This feature and side folding are what sold me on this rollator which cost more than others. The downside is it broke which I chalk up to the daily storing on the shuttle bus. I think the drivers are a little heave handed so I asked current driver to treat the new rollator with better care. There are two plastic tubings that hold the seat and removable bag in place. One of them broke off so I couldn't use the portable storage bag if I wanted. Also one of the screw/nuts came out so couldn't use anymore as a seat. A trip to Home Depot could have remedied this had I found the problem before I had to place the second emergency order which came on a Sunday! Thanks Amazon Prime. The brakes do need adjusting I found out when I tested so I will do doing it for the second rollator. I ordered it again so its pretty good. I love that I can fold it up compactly for travel (e.g., cruise cant wait). It fits in the back seat laying sideways or in my truck for my outings with its user.

Although it is not noted anywhere on the packaging or the hairdryer itself, the listing on Amazon claims this is rated for 2000W. That's basically top-end for a decent quality home hairdryer (professional models can go up to 3600W). It claims to have three heat settings, but one of them (cool) appears to be \"heat off\", so in reality, you have low and high heat (some hair dryers offer more). You also have two speeds (some hair dryers offer more speeds, as well). There's a \"cold shot\" button that you can press to turn off the heating element (something, as mentioned, you can also do by picking the lowest temperature, so it's pretty much redundant).
Speed and temperature are controlled by rocker switches. The rocker switches are easy to operate. But I find this kind of switch is a bit too easy to toggle when you're using the hairdryer. I've owned other hair dryers that use a slider switch or firm buttons, and I find those better in terms of not accidentally changing the speed/heat.
There are no lights on the device when it's in use. Many modern hair dryers light up when in use. If you care about that, now you know. I personally don't care.
It's relatively lightweight and feels steady and non-fatiguing in the hand. The flow of air is decent.
The color/aesthetics are pleasing if that matters.
In addition to the hairdryer, you get three attachments: A finger diffuser and two concentrators. I'm a middle-aged guy, so I'm only gonna use one of the concentrators. But if you have long thick hair, you'll probably want the finger diffuser. The attachments do NOT screw onto the end of the dryer--they just push onto the end. I prefer attachments that screw on and lock in place. My experience with attachments that are just pushed on and held on by friction is that they have a tendency to come loose while you're using the dryer.
This hair dryer is only rated for US use (120V)--no surprise for a high wattage device.
Overall, it's a decent hairdryer. Other than the advertised 2000W power (vs 1850W for many others) there's not much that differentiates this one from a lot of others, so I'd say keep this one in the running if it's price competitive.
Pros:
** Rated for 2000W (high end for home hair dryers)
** Comfortable to use
** Produces a lot of hot air when in use
Cons
** Rocker (rather than slide) control switches
** Only two heat settings (warm/hot) and two airspeed settings (low/high)
** Attachments don't lock in place", "label": 1}

It is somewhat light blue in color, and definitely has that minty/methol aroma. It is a very light texture and rubs into your skin nicely, all of which absorbing. It is not greasy and doesn't leave you feeling sticky and gross. Just penetrates like a lotion - perfectly.
When I first applied it, it was that cold/hot tingly feeling (without a doubt, like other pain relief topical items, you want to wash your hands very good after applying). It did not take long before I could feel the warm tingly feeling taking over .. within a short amount of time, I truly started feeling relief .... much better than other over the counter items I have purchased. I was pretty thankful it took the edge off like it did, and the sharp pains started to subside. I have been using it primarily in the evenings, after work and making dinner, when it is time to wind down (altho if I am desperate enough it goes on right after work so I don't have to gimp through making dinner).
Reliefor has definitely helped ease my lower back and neck pains and stiffness, I am very thankful I found it and I can tell you this beats anything I have found at the store. I know everyone is different, but, I highly recommend based on how it has eased a significant amount of pain for me. Thank you Reliefor!
Did I mention their guarantee??? You can't go wrong!!! "GUARANTEED RESULTS: We're so confident in our product, if you're not satisfied with the deep, penetrating relief, we'll send a complete refund within 30 days, no questions asked. Try Reliefor today with no risk!"

I mean, how cool is it to be able to enter ALL your medical information, medications, medical conditions, previous surgeries, history, everything and have it immediately accessible, right?
WRONG! Depending upon the computer program and OS, this USB may or may not automatically pop up - and with epilepsy, time is brain - so I can't afford for some EMT or ER doctor to try to fiddle with the computer while he/she tries to treat me.
WORSE YET - you CAN'T PRINT OUT ALL THE INFORMATION!!!! HOW DUMB IS THAT?! Seriously, imagine me in a seizure, I can't communicate, some assistant is trying to get the USB to open up, when she/he finally does, she/he can't print out the information and must write it all down by hand?!? Because of all the different sections, will anyone even notice that I have a VNS implant and can't have electrical stimulation? That CPR is a much better alternative for me that a shock to restart my heart? OR which drugs are just going to make my seizures worse? Or that I am allergic to penicillin? Or have time to write a note to the doctor to tell him/her all of the 12 medications I am taking?? There are five different screens you have to tab through to even find the information, will the assistant (once they figure out how to start the USB drive going - it doesn't pop up automatically on my computer) even know which pages are the most important? And how much time will be wasted while my brain is dying? NO THANK YOU! Even the stickers that come with this bracelet are useless - I can only put one on there - so which disease is most important? Seizures or Diabetes? Either could render me unconscious or unable to communicate.
MACX - FIX THESE DESIGN FLAWS BEFORE IT KILLS SOMEONE! MAKE IT SO IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY OPEN UP IN ANY OPERATING SYSTEM AND PRINT OUT WITH A BIG, OBVIOUS PRINT MEDICAL INFORMATION BUTTON ON THE SCREEN.
I am just going back to Medic Alert to have a new bracelet engraved saying Epilepsy, Diabetes, VNS implant, drug allergies, hypertension, etc, because frankly, a phone call to Medic Alert will be much faster than having someone try to figure this thing out. You can't even use the PRINTSCREEEN button to get it to print, and when one of my doctors tried, it just crashed out his computer.", "label": 0}

With My Heating Pad, the user has the option of hot or cold therapy. As mentioned you can do a heat therapy, moist heat, cold therapy and aromatherapy. With the heat therapy you can heat the pad in the microwave according to the chart that comes with the pack. Since I have the Hot & Cold Therapy pack it is recommended that you microwave 1.5-2 minutes. You can reheat in the same session after 12 minutes for an additional 45-60 seconds. When hot, apply the product to the desired location over a layer of clothing. The mist method is where you mist the fabric lightly prior to following the heating instruction. Note that I have NOT done the mist method as I find that the 2 minutes in the microwave is appropriate. I've noticed that the pack stays rather hot for a minimum of 2 hours and starts to get warm. The cold therapy works well for soothing nerves and inflammation, as stated chill the pack in the freezer in a tightly sealed plastic zip lock bag for two hours. The plastic bag that the product comes in will be the perfect size! And lastly there is the Aromatherapy method. Prior to heating put 3-5 drops of essential oil on the palm of your hand and rub on the fleece side of the product. I recommend lavender for a relaxing effect and eucalyptus during a sinus headache or cold like symptoms. I've always preferred rice filling as it retains heat very well! I've used the Gaiam Restore Dual Temperature Therapy Wrap and that did nothing for me! I highly recommend this product for those looking for quick relief without the drawn out complication.
The craftsmanship with the rice packing is evenly dispersed and the sewing is professionally appealing. One side is a very soft fleece and the opposite is cotton! When cleaning the pack do NOT, I repeat do NOT wash or soak the pack with water. It will ruin the rice filling and will cause a larger mess in the microwave. Clean with a damp cloth or wipes.

It turned out to be UTI, but the damage was done. Someone placed a peed upon blanket on the downstairs laundry shelf and didn't mention. I kept passing the area and looking for the source of the dreaded smell. I finally realized it was a nice stretchy fleece blanket that was neatly folded and sitting on the shelf. You know how you have that one blanket that you just really like? Not expensive, but just right for cuddling up on the couch to watch a show or read a book. I didn't want to toss it. The urine had dried on it by the time I found it and I couldn't pin point the direct area for a spot cleaning. I ended up placing the blanket in the bath tub and filled it just over the top of blanket. I added two ounces of Scout's Honor Booster to it and swished it around to be sure it was well mixed and saturated the blanket. I let it soak for a few hours. I then took the still rather sopping blanket to the wash and ran it through a regular wash with an extra rinse. Air dried. The blanket has no scent...NO SCENT left on it! I have a sensitive nose and if I can detect the slightest scent, I know for sure the cat will and may decided to use it again. All other products I have used up until this point have left a slight lingering urine odor on towels, blankets, clothing. I foster for a non profit animal rescue and if one cat goes on something, others will follow. This is much worse when you have an adult male cat that has just been neutered and his body hasn't gotten rid of all the hormones yet. It takes some cats longer than others to lose that strong male cat urine smell. I love cats but I hate their smell. I freak out if I smell the slightest odor because I feel like my home is dirty and gross. I worry about inviting anyone over or God forbid, going to work and having someone ask \"Wow, so you h ave cats?\" It's a legit fear for me. I have started adding one ounce of this product to every pet laundry load. I think most products are overrated and hyped. Many make promises that just don't live up to the hype. I have hesitated on Scout's Honor products due to the price. This one is well worth it. A little does go a long way. I don't know what's in it, but it works. Oh, and it also gets out other organic odors like sweat from a young teenager that seems to be on some sort of bathing strike despite the \"soap can be your friend\" talk.", "label": 1}

Hudson View Specialty Products, the seller of this fire blanket, should be ashamed. To be an effective tool a fire blanket needs to be well marked--preferably in bright red--to serve as a constant reminder in the kitchen that it's there to be used in the event of a stove-top fire. The packaging for this product is a hangable clear plastic envelope (with Velcro attachments) covering a cheap, ugly and poorly reproduced black and white cover with the legend "Cooking Fire Extinguisher" in 5/16-inch type, and an even more poorly reproduced black and white copy of the color picture shown on the Amazon page for this product.
Amazingly, directions for use of the fire blanket are not included anywhere in or on the package! What are they thinking?
To make the product usable in our kitchen, I went to www.hudsonmedicalproducts.com, copied the following from the product description, and reproduced it in large bold type on a card I inserted into the clear plastic envelope the fire blanket came in:
FIRE BLANKET
In case of fire on stovetop:
1. Turn OFF burner
2. Remove fire blanket from pouch
3. Open to full size
4. Drop over fire to smother fire
After 1 minute, using a pot holder, partially lift fire blanket to see if fire is extinguished. If not extinguished, drop fire blanket back over the fire and check again in 1 minute.
Caution: Fire blanket may be very hot. Be sure to use a pot holder when lifting fire blanket.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If fire spreads beyond pot or pan, do not use the Fire Blanket. Instead, use standard chemical fire extinguisher or call 911. Never use water in an attempt to extinguish a grease fire.
\u25aa Only for fires that are confined to a pot or pan.
\u25aa Not for use on electrical fires, chemical fires, or trash or paper fires.
\u25aa If fire spreads beyond pot or pan, do not use the Kitchen Fire Blanket. Use standard chemical fire extinguisher or call 911.
Never use water in an attempt to extinguish a grease fire.
http://www.hudsonmedicalproducts.com
With that much information, it actually took two cards, one in the front and one in the back. The information above the line is now on the front of my fire blanket package and what's below the line is on the back. All in big red bold type.
The product itself is OK, though the fire blanket appears to be made of fiberglass cloth, and fire professionals warn against using fiberglass in fire blankets because fiberglass can actually burn and melt. Nonetheless, my layman's opinion is that for a stovetop flash fire this ought to do the job. Hope we never have to find out!", "label": 0}

Its about the same diameter as a stand up pump toothpaste about almost 3 inches tall. I have tried to use activated charcoal powder before but it was too messy and so dark black I was really afraid to continue using it with a crown and cap in the back of my mouth thinking it may stain it black. THIS is not black in color its is a very light gray actually and that right there sold me less fearful that this may stain my white crowns and white fillings no more. Not that I have a lot of dental work just one crown and two white small fillings. This container did not have a seal or instructions so I had to google how to use it. I just tap some powder onto the inside of the top cap and then after wetting my toothbrush tap over it to get it to stick onto my toothbrush. I use an oral B electric toothbrush and this I think helps speed up the results. I have been using this for a few weeks now (I wanted to try for a few weeks before posting) and I would say noticeably whiter at least one shade if not a bit more. It does not irritate my gums or teeth and I have sensitive teeth. Does not stain dental work, and fairly easy to use. I sometimes combine it with a very small amount of toothpaste or I wet my toothbrush with minty mouth wash first. The taste on this is not the most pleasant but I was expecting that after googling it. It leave my mouth and teeth feeling the same clean after a dentist visit which I also like. I rinse with water after followed up with mouth wash the strong minty Listerine kind to get rid of the after taste. As many have mentioned its a camphor smell and taste. I try to use it every day at least in the morning sometimes at night but the after taste at night is not the best so I use regular tooth paste at night usually. It does work and it does help overall oral health in a gentle and natural product which I like.

I take one or two with any meal that contains alot of protein, fat or carbs, and it helps me digest the food quicky and efficiently. I used to often have undigested food in my stomach more than an hour after even a small meal, which lead to passing gas, burping and sometimes GERD. But since using these enzymes, that is no longer a problem. I used to take acid blockers because it felt like I had an avid stomach. But within 2-3 days of starting to take an enzyme with every meal, the burning in my stomach went away and I no longer needed the acid blockers.
Before starting enzymes, I did quite a bit of research. This product is formulated by master supplement maker, Jon Barron. I found his articles about how he formulated this product to be very compelling. The formula does NOT contain hydrochloric acid (HCL) / stomach acid. Jon believes that if you need that you should take it separately due to the timing of when stomach acid is needed versus the other enzymes in the digestive process. His formula must be very well designed because it has worked well for me for years. I've never had any side effects of any kind.
I usually take it with one of my first few mouthfuls of food, but I find it doesn't matter that much when you take them. I have taken them as much as 30 min Jess after a meal, off the meal is not digesting fast enough on its own, and within 15 minutes, and burping and feeling of being overly full goes away indicating the food is now digesting.
These enzymes work so well that, if you take them with every meal for a month or two, they will get your stomach and your digestion working so well you no longer need to take them with every meal. I now only take them for meals that I know I won't digest as well. A couple years ago my digestion was so good I stopped taking them entirely. But as I get older, I gradually needed to take enzymes again. So, now I taker this brand regularly, and will plan to take them for the rest of my life, as needed.
I will also mentioned that I developed gall stones a couple years ago and was able to successfully avoid having to have my gall bladder removed by working with a naturopathic doctor, and by taking a small dose of bile acid daily. But I feel these enzymes were also an important part of the regimen that got me through it. They digest fats and protein so well that it removed the main triggers of the gall attacks, and in conjunction with dietary modifications and liver support, has removed the unhealthy environment that was causing the stones.", "label": 1}

It works wonderfully. I have updated my review from four stars to five stars. I am very pleased with the customer service that I received from the company. This really is a great massager, and now the whole family uses it.
Update- September 16, 2022: So, last night I came in the room to find my husband using this massager. He wanted to know why it shut off, I had asked him how long he had been using it, and he said 15 minutes or so. I let him know it had an auto shut off feature and that it must be working. He then asked me how long the battery would last. I was confused, I told him it had to be plugged into the wall. He said, \u201cNo it doesn\u2019t. Look, I\u2019m using it without it plugged in.\u201d I do vaguely now remember that there was a battery sticker on the box that it arrived in. Now I know why. I have moved this up another star, because it is even more portable than I originally thought. The instruction manual does not mention this feature, neither does the product listing.
Original Review:
I placed it in a recliner chair next to my hip, and it feels so much better. I have set it on the floor and put my feet on it, and I do like the motion. I do not like any of the tools that vibrate, so I appreciate that this does not have a vibration mode.
Pros:
It has two speed adjustment.
It can be used with and without heat.
You can easily change direction by pushing the direction button.
The instruction says it has automatic shut off after 15 minutes. (I do not know if that is correct, because I am usually done with it after 10 minutes.)
It can be used at home or work.
It can be plugged into any 12 V plug, including a vehicle or a camper unit.
It is fairly quiet.
The last page in the instruction manual says that it has a one year limited warranty.
Cons:
The instruction manual is different from the actual function of the unit when looking at the operating instructions section. It does not actually switch directions, unless you push the button.
The left side of my unit, the heat was having an issue, it does not have any contact information on the instruction manual for warranty purposes, so I will need to go through Amazon.
It does not come with any type of storage bag, that would allow me to keep the unit clean while traveling and not miss loose the power cords.", "label": 1}

I simply wanted an attractive and rugged dog carrier that could genuinely withstand the rigors of travel and protect my dogs against inevitable knocks and jolts. It needed to be well padded and offer far more protection than the most popular soft carrier but also be able to squeeze under an airplane seat. However at home, I needed something that wasn't so utilitarian that it needed to be shut away but instead could function as a subtle and sensible den.
On the whole, I found almost all the competition either too feminine bordering on the stupid and/or too flimsy for serious consideration by anyone not just considering flying with a dog, but for any travel whether by car, subway or even bicycle!
The Jet Set carriers have proven themselves as very tough and practical. I like their well padded interiors and simple tough exterior (though I wish they came in other colors especially black or dark brown). The floor, side walls and ceiling all have what feels like at least a half inch of foam padding on a semi-rigid backing. The interior padding is covered in a soft black cloth. I wish that the floor was removable or there was a fleece lining I could buy so I simply line it with newspaper and cover with an old folded bath mat. The exterior shell in tough thick ballistic nylon (that as I mentioned I wish came in other more muted colors). On either side are windows with roll-up cover flaps and both ends have zippered soft nylon mesh openings. These offer a good mix of ventilation and privacy that some other dog carriers don't - either too much or too little. Also my Dachshund has chewed through the soft plastic mesh of other brand dog carriers (that I was unhappy with for all the reasons I like the Jet Set) but at best, just flossed his teeth on the Jet Set's mesh.
I completely endorse and recommend the Jet Set bag. I can't imagine there is a better dog carrier on the market - I certainly didn't find one in the dozen or more pet stores I visited in Manhattan ranging from Petco to very high end designer shops. They've performed amazingly well and at about $110 were excellent value for money especially compared to both cheaper and much more expensive carriers that look foolish and don't offer your dog enough protection on the move. I've seen some people on airplanes that have \"fashion\" dog bags that one could see were completely inadequate and inwhich the dog was uncomfortable and miserable. My dogs love their Jet Sets as dens at home (tucked under dining chairs in the corner of a room) and inasmuch seem just as relaxed and happy curled up/stretched out in them on the subway, in a plane or car.", "label": 1}

The bracelets each have 5 holes, so you can put up to 4 allergy charm in if needed. If your child has more than 4 allergies, you would either need to buy another bracelet or find a way to make more holes. Also, if your child has allergies that are not in the \"big 8\" (wheat, milk, soy, shellfish, fish, nuts, peanuts, eggs) you may have to purchase extra charms for your child.
My peanut and tree-nut allergic daughter is 3 years old, and just starting to venture away from my watchful care. She is not yet in preschool, but does go to a few church activities, and I am constantly worried about her being in trouble over her food allergies. I looked at a lot of options for a medic alert type bracelet or necklace, and this seemed to be the best suited for a toddler. It is waterproof, durable, and cute. It is not super-girly, nor super-masculine. The bracelet is a bright orange, which is quite easy to see on a child, but is not SO distracting as to make their beautiful face or clothing fade into the background. It is also trendy-looking, since it looks like all those other \"sayings\" bracelets kids are into right now.
My favorite part about this bracelet is that it is EASY to see AND easy to read what the child is allergic to. With several of the other medical alert bracelets, you had to flip the bracelet inside-out and read something etched into it, or it would only say one allergy.
There are only 2 downsides so far.
1-my daughter likes to take it off herself. I anticipate we will spend time searching for this, before she gets used to wearing it ALL the time. But that is just because she is a very take-charge 3 year old, and you may not have this drawback.
2-it is fairly expensive for 10 pieces of plastic. Especially factoring in shipping. However, my child's health and life is infinitely valuable, and this product is much cheaper than an ER visit, or even an Epi-Pen copay. So in my mind, it is worth it since I like it and my daughter will wear it. But if you can find something less expensive that meets your needs, go with that.", "label": 1}

So, I ordered her ReMag and Remyte, which have worked very well for me so far.
Background, I am very health conscious and not over weight. I eat lots of fruits and vegetables. I am not into sweets and eat pretty healthy. So, in theory I should be getting enough minerals and specially magnesium from what I eat. But, based on my heart situation (going to AFib or Flutter once in a while), it appears I deficient in magnesium and I don't absorb enough minerals and magnesium from the food I eat. Now, ionic minerals like ReMag or ReMyte get absorbed without going through the digestive system. So, that is the reason the ReMag effect is so fast for me. I have tried the ionic magnesium from other vendors too. They help, but, it seems to me that the ReMag action is faster than other brands specially when I go to flutter. The ReMag stops my flutter much faster than other brands. Probably, the reason being that the ReMag is Pico-Ionic magnesium rather than being Nano-Ionic (1000 times larger than Pico), which causes the magnesium to go to the cells much easier due to its smaller size.
After I started taking doctor Dean's ReMag (ionic magnesium) and ReMyte (ionic trace minerals) on a regular basis every day, I rarely go to AFib or Flutter any more. So, definitely taking the ReMag has reduced the frequency of my episodes.
Bottom line, based on my own experience, I definitely recommend the ReMag and ReMyte (ionic trace minerals) if you have any heart or digestive issues. The ionic minerals get absorbed without going through the digestion process. So, they are very effective. You can download and read doctor Dean's books for more info about why you need to take ionic minerals for your heart or other conditions. She is right on the money!", "label": 1}

It definitely met my expectations.
The brush is great. It is easy to use. You can control the temperature in increments of five degrees Celsius.
You can easily switch the display from Celsius to Fahrenheit by pressing both the temperature up and down buttons at the same time.
The digital display tells you the heat setting and the exact temperature as it heats up. The rubber tips on the bristles and the outside bristles make it difficult to burn yourself by accident.
It's not super heavy. It does take some practice to get good at using it.
When I first started on my hair, I had no idea what strategy to use.
I ended up taking large sections and smoothing those out. Then I split those large sections into small sections so I could get close to the roots.
It took me a long time to get everything done to my satisfaction this first time, but I'm sure it will go faster next time since I know what I'm doing now.
It took about fifteen minutes to get through everything the first time, which would normally take about half an hour to get my entire head, which is still about half the time of a regular flat iron.
I could speed up the process and get straighter hair by using a higher heat setting, up to 450\u00b0F.
At least at this temperature, my hair wasn't as straight as I get it with a regular hair straightener, but I like the way it looked.
It has just the slightest hint of wave to it, especially near the tips.
My hair has a tendency to fluff up, but it wasn't too fluffy when I was done.
It had just the right amount of body. It was still frizzy, but I expected that.
My hair is frizzy most of the time. I was able to smooth down the frizz by using just a couple of drops of argan oil.
I was satisfied with these results.
I had to clean out my straightener brush when I was done.
I shed excessively. So of course I had to pull a bunch of hair out of the brush, but I have to pull hair out of every brush I ever use.
Oil in my hair left some residue on the straightener brush. It came off very easily.
At least for me, this straightener brush does not require any more cleaning than any of my other heat stylers.
My final thoughts are that this won't entirely replace my old straightener, but it will be a nice alternative.
I still need my classic flat iron when I just want to fix my bangs and when I want my hair to be perfectly straight.
This brush is great when I need to straighten my hair but still want a slight wave.
Plus, it doesn't leave crimps like a regular straightener does if you accidentally hold it an angle for too long.
It's just great to have another good option for doing my hair.", "label": 1}

My wife and I have several other muscle rollers, but the 3 in 1 is the most versatile of the bunch, with the added bonus of saving storage space. The rollers combine to form a trio of powerful tools to help your muscles recover from work outs and massage targeted aching muscles. The big selling point to me is the convenience of 3 different rollers in one package.
If you're reading this you are probably familiar with the benefits of roller therapy, so I'll concentrate on the goods and a few not-so-goods of this particular roller set. The design and build of the individual rollers is very good and works it's magic as expected. Unfortunately our set was both TOO easy AND TOO difficult to take apart. Let me explain --- the textured orange Mama roller slipped out of the outer Gray Papa roller like a screaming kid in a water slide tube. However, the smallest Baby roller stick with the handles and pull-out strap takes a lot of tugging and pulling AND more tugging to release from Mama roller. The strap is a definite necessity to pull the inner 2 rollers apart! Once apart, the individual rollers are great!
In all fairness, our set was perhaps an anomaly and the tight/loose thing was for our entertainment, and ours alone. ;-)
Might I suggest to the designers some way of incorporating a way to easily carry this as one unit by enabling the strap to be used as a carrying strap to transport in the vertical position? As it stands now, Baby roller and Mama roller would travel conveniently as one (because of the super-tight fit), but Papa roller is Waayyy too loose-y goose-y and will slide off.
Pros:
>Convenient "nesting" storage
>3 rollers in 1
Cons:
>Fit of "nesting" rollers could be better
>Need easier way to transport as one piece

The powder itself is ok. Dissolves easily in water and seems to do its job. So why only two stars?
a) The bag was beat up - crumpled, dirty & unsightly. Like it was in storage forever. They could've at least dusted it off before shipping. The bag contains a product for human consumption, I expect that it looks clean & hygienic at the minimum. Minus one star for dirty packaging.
b) The expiry date was only 11 months away (May 2018). This a 500g bag which usually lasts me a year or so, and I still have my old stock that is good for another couple of months. IMO 11 months is too short an expiry date for a health & fitness supplement product. I only noticed the expiry date on the pack while discarding the bag after I used it for a few days and transferred the product into a glass jar. It was bit late to return it. If I saw it before I opened the bag, I'd have returned it for sure. My previous bag from BulkSupplements had a nearly 3-year expiry period ending in 2019. So now I am trying to use up the WHC product before expiry. Minus another star for the short expiry period.
c) I docked the 3rd star for poor customer service. To clarify, even though I was disappointed with the above two points I didn't complain and was minding my business. But two weeks after the purchase I got an email from WHC asking for feedback on the product. I told them about the dirty bag and short expiry date and I expected them to do something about it. Instead they simply said "Sorry about your issues, but we can't do anything. Contact Amazon."
Why did they contact me and ask for feedback if they won't do anything about it? I think they just want to hear positive feedback and since mine was not good, they ignored it. They also asked me to leave a review on Amazon about it, so here I am with my review.
There are plenty of other vendors on Amazon & other marketplaces who supply the same product at similar prices and provide much better customer service if you are unhappy with the product. It is all made in China anyway, and these vendors just buy in bulk and pack it in their bags.
I will not be buying any product from "Wholesale Health Connection" again.", "label": 0}

Value: Here's the kicker, it seems small. 2.47 oz seems like it isn't much but my old spice is 2.6 oz. The price is different, but not by much, about 3 grams in weight or less than 5% more than this deodorant. The form factor I think just makes it seem less. So the biggest barrier here is the price and visual presentation, but for those who want to minimize not just plastic but paper waste should appreciate this packaging as this is as minimal as you can get minus not using dyed and bleached paper.
Packaging: minimalism is good but my bar had signs of something pressing down on it, so it was somewhat crushed before arriving. Due to the minimal packaging there's bits of deodorant stuck to the box edges and lid flap. It was also kinda sweaty, there was a noticeable amount of moisture collected on the top when I opened it up.
Scent: I got the lavender bar, and while it does have some lavender to it, I notice this other smell like glue sticks. The lavender is good, reminds me of the lavender I used to grow on a farm years ago, but the glue smell bothers me a bit.
Application: I'm not sure if I am being too gentle but I read other reviews saying it doesn't last long so I gently applied it on a corner, a lot more gentler than I would with standard deodorants. I would prefer to have something to hold it with to apply it so I don't get any on my fingers. I ended up applying it to hair rather than directly on the skin but I felt like there was enough to put my arms down and move them back and forth to rub it in.
Overall: I'm going to keep looking at alternatives as well as learn how I can make my own deodorant from organic supplies and cut down the cost that way and minimize my carbon footprint by not ordering things from the other side of the world (made in New Zealand). For those who don't want to learn to make your own, this is a viable option but the fact that it has to be shipped all the way from New Zealand does mean there's a carbon footprint from shipping. You'll have that carbon footprint with almost everything, but probably not as much as you would with something shipped from an island country on the other side of the world. A good step in the right direction, so I certainly appreciate the intention.", "label": 0}

No matter the quality of the cushioning of the chair, eventually, I get sore and shift a lot. In 100 dollar chairs, I bottom out quick. In 1000 dollar chairs, it may take most of the day, but eventually i will get sore. With this Purple Ultimate Seat Cushion, it does not happen. At the end of the day, i don't have sore spots, and I really dont' feel like I need to get off my butt. It makes a HUGE difference. If you suffer from a bad chair, and you can't afford a nice one, this cushion might be all you need. I also sit crosslegged, and my feet or legs might go numb from pressure points, but with this cushion, my leg just sinks into the cushion, and I never get pressure points.
I recently drove 9 hours to and from a remote town in my Tesla Model 3, and I used this seat, and it was AMAZING. I felt like i could go days and days with no seat problems. It does raise you 2 inches, so you have to compensate for that, but since the car does most of the driving, i didn't mind. The material does seem soft and slightly sticky in there, so don't leave it in your car on a hot day, or there's a possibility of it deforming or melting.
The \"rubber\" square pattern has a good sense of medium firmness, but it has a good side to side \"squishiness\" that allows the large seat cushion to form/fit into my current office chair seat as well as the tesla seat. The size is big, but perfect for me because it is more important it fills the entire seat pan. I'm 5'7\" and med/large when it comes to things like this. I've tried other foam and memory foam material before, and most might feel soft, but they eventually squish to nothing, but this has a structure to it that never 100% squishes, so it still offers great support, and must like a rubber grid lattice, I don't expect it to lose it's structural integrity over time like foam would.
I do wish they made office chairs with this type of padding, so it's not 2 inches extra of padding I'm sitting on. I'd buy that chair in a heartbeat.", "label": 1}

She has always slept with it and I think part of the reason she is such a good sleeper is because of this! For the first little bit she was in our room and I have really missed using this at night to sleep! I almost bought myself one!
Why this is perfect for baby:
-The sound is not recorded so it doesnt repeat the same pattern over and over.
-I love that it just has an on/off switch, I didnt want a sound machine that was going to turn off after my daughter fell asleep
-It helps cover noises in the rest of the house. My daughter will sleep through the doorbell ringing and the fire alarm going off but as soon as I go into her room and turn off the sound machine she start to stir
-It's pretty portable, we always take it on vacations/ trips to grandmas
-You can change the sound by rotating the top part or the sides, if we know things are going to be a little louder we can adjust the sound conditioner accordingly
Other thoughts:
-I like to sleep with a fan so I found the noise this makes to be very soothing. If you like to sleep with a fan then you will love this!
-Dont expect this to cover up every noise, thats not really the point, it will help drown out other noises so if you are asleep or working you wont be distracted by them. I know some people complain about this, but to completely block out all other noises that sound conditioner would have to be really loud and I think that would be worse than the offending noises. It's sort of like wearing earplugs, you can still sort of hear things but they dont bother you anymore.
-Be to follow the instructions not place the sound conditioner right next to your head (like your nightstand) and it will work better. This seems counterintuitive, but it works.
Bottom line: This is worth every penny! For us, this was a splurge. We didnt have a lot to spend on baby stuff but this made the cut and was WELL worth it, still in use today (1.5 years later). We are about to have another baby so we just bought another to have in our room when she gets home from the hospital and I am excited to keep it when she shares a room with her sister!

Removed, underside of bowl is threaded, but soft wood surface does not bode well for repeated removal,sealings. Probably best to clean here quarterly. There is also a gap the thickness of 2 sheets of newspaper, when bowl is in place.
Pipe Body: This is NOT BRIAR. Unbelieveably . . . it is made of BALSA WOOD! Top of pipe body is hollowed out with a floor at mid body and a 2nd Draught Hole at the back, 1/4\" above the shank.
Stem: The stem, ferrule and screw tenon (in the shank) are hard, plastic, not Vulcanite. It has a chemical taste to it initially. End of Bit is not round, but somewhat flatted and this makes for an air gap top & bottom when inserted into the ferrule. After first use, the screw tenon in the shank came loose. Wood glued it came loose a second time. Will probably need to resort to JB Weld to keep it in place. Gluing the stem to ferrule receiver to cure that air gap, is not an option, as you don't know where the pieces will line up when threaded back on the screw tenon. I subbed a bent Vulcanite stem, but there was still an air gap, but not as bad as the stock unit.
Useability: I gave it 2 stars, as it is smokeable. That overtly top heavy bowl requires some dexterity. It always wants to fall forward. Hard to light, due to weight, bulk and center draught hole. Czech Pipe tool handy when loading. Once going, draw is medium tight. This can be improved by opening 2nd draught hole to 5/32nd.
The knock on Ceramic pipes, is the heat they generate. Here, the light wood body, gives a cooler surface to hold while your tobac burns cleanly in the Ceramic bowl. This is this lowly pipes' saving grace.
I looked for lowest price ($23.90 with Ship)and waited for the leisurely, 3 week, International shipping. Still, I paid too much by half, judging by product received. This pipe made by committee has a goofy charm for those who like to tinker, but I believe it is not worth the money or the aggravation to most pipesters.", "label": 0}

That\u2019s what it\u2019s turned into, and that\u2019s exactly where it sits right now, at the foot of my Tempurpedic. Spoiler alert: I LOVE IT!
The unit came disassembled but turned out to be a cinch to put together. The instructions are hardly necessary. There were stickers with letter coding on the legs and body that showed what went where, and an Allen wrench for the stainless steel screws. There was even an extra wrench and set of screws included. I think it took me five minutes from start to finish.
There were only two minor imperfections I feel obliged to mention. The first was a rough patch on the bottom of one leg. A little sanding took care of it, but it\u2019s something I think should have been caught in quality control before it left the factory.
The other issue had to do with the soft rubber feet that affix to the bottom of each leg. An improperly pre-drilled hole in one of the legs meant that I ended up stripping the notches in the head trying to get the screw securely seated. Not a huge deal, but still\u2026
For those considering it for bath use, my experience may be instructive. A couple of years ago, I realized I really needed to be able to sit down while showering. I saw (and purchased) the Oasis Space model in the accompanying photo here on Amazon. It\u2019s perfect for my situation. The legs are only 13 inches apart, which means they can sit flat on the bottom of the tub, and the circular seat measures well over 12 inches, which is ample for my gluteus maximus. It also has a number of different height settings.
For my bathtub, this bamboo version is wider where it needs to be narrower and narrower where it needs to be wider. Instead of 13 inches, the legs are 18 inches apart, making it impossible to place it securely on the bottom. And the slatted seat, while comfortable, is over two inches narrower than the diameter of my existing shower seat. Finally, while an application of Tung Oil would probably retard mold, I\u2019ll be much happier using this bench as a bedroom accessory.
I continue to be impressed with the Oasis range of products and the company's excellent customer service.", "label": 1}

I do have an advantage regarding this chair over someone looking to buy this chair sight unseen. I have been able to tryout this specific chair for about a month... I work part time in the ER of a hospital and the hospital has this exact chair in the staff lounge. If you are looking at this chair and wondering if you should purchase is.. I say YES!!
FEATURES:
Not only is the price very reasonable; this chair had all of the basic functions I felt were necessary in a massage chair. Zero gravity, L track massage, which means this sucker will roll from shoulders, down your back, over your booty and to your thighs(heaven on earth). It also has heat which was very important to me. Shiatsu, kneading and rolling, air compression for your calves and forearms and 4 preprogrammed settings. I can sit at zero gravity with just heat and foot rollers going or choose preprogrammed relax, recover, extend or refresh. So many options. Other features outside of these would just be bonuses to me but would also push up the price point and I am not interested in paying 3-10k when this chair has what I believe are necessities.
DELIVERY:
I ordered this chair on a Sunday and received it the Friday at noon...5 days!! It would have been 4 but weather delayed the driver. The shipping company was awesome R&L.. I had a tracking number and received a phone call the day before delivery then the day of 30 minutes prior. Couldn't have went more smoothly.
BRINGING IT IN:
This chair is a beast... very heavy but my son and husband brought it in the house Then down the hall to the den. To get it in the den they did take off the door and trim as our door is small and we wanted no dings or scratches . They probably could have laid the chair on its side and pushed it in the door like an "L".. if that makes sense but I'm not sure you want to tip over a 225 -250 pound chair. Once in the den my husband said it was just 2 pieces to put together and it was super quick.. plug and play. This chair is strong and powerful. Start on low.
I have to say that I am thrilled with everything about this purchase another side note... this chair is "big calf friendly".. there are other chairs that have skinny looking calf massagers... you'll have no problem being comfy in this chair if you have wide calves.

2) The shank on the bit is thick, and it does not fit the chuck easily. I did not have to grind it down as I've read in other reviews. Some people will not agree with what I did, but I was able to install the bit by tapping it in with a rubber mallet. As you can see in the pics, it does fit completely within the chuck, and it is stable and solid. I may have to use pliers or something to remove it when the time comes, but I bought the jig saw almost exclusively to use with the massage bits. I have another jig saw for cutting but it's older and doesn't use T-shank bits/blades.
3) The tips themselves are great. I was a little concerned that they might be harder and smoother than I wanted, but they are perfect. The surface is rubbery not plasticky, and the material is somewhat soft. I can squeeze it in my hands. Firmer than an racquetball or tennis ball, but not as firm as a lacrosse ball. That's what I wanted. I didn't want to be beating myself up with the tips. The texture of the ball is slick enough that it doesn't pull hair out of my skin. I had read a review that some tip textures have done that to others.
4) I was surprised that I could use it at high speed on the jig saw. I thought I'd have to take it easy, but the higher speed actually works better I think. You just have to be aware of how close you hold it to the muscle so the stroke doesn't have the tip hitting deeper than you want.
Overall, I think it's great. Great value. 6 tips, a bit, and an extension (if you need it) for only a few bucks more than sets with 1, 2, or 3 tips. You may want to have someone assist with hard to reach areas like triceps or hamstrings. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because of the effort needed to insert the bit into my Bauer jig saw. I've seen videos of these types of bits popping right into other jig saws with no effort at all, so if you have one of the ones known to be compatible, it'll be an easy install. And for those of you like me where he bit seems to be too thick, try tapping it in with a rubber mallet.", "label": 1}

I keep a peri bottle filled with water and use it to wet down the wipe for diaper changes. I've used them for a year now, and no complaints. They always ship quickly, and 200 wipes lasts me about 2 to 3 weeks. They're also great to have in the car to clean up after playing outside or anything else as I know I'm not putting chemicals on my daughters hands or near her mouth. My husband loves them because he can use one to apply diaper rash cream after diaper changes keeping the residue off his hands as well as makes things a little more PC now that she's getting older. They're soft, durable, bigger and clean more surface area than regular wipes, and for about the same cost.These clothes are superb to use in place of baby wipes. I first got the idea from the hospital and found them on amazon. They are thick and soft and do not tear or rip. Most newborns do not need any additional chemical on their skin to clean them during diaper changes other than water. In fact, my daughter's skin was really sensitive and I wanted to minimize the recurrence of diaper rash so I stopped with the baby wipes and began using these! Awesome!

I have a support belt from Motherhood from my 1st (singleton) pregnancy that I found to be uncomfortable and really rather unhelpful. I only tried wearing it 3 times and just gave up. (I did not have back pain with my first pregnancy, and have not had it - yet- my problem is that my belly feels too heavy and I want support holding it up!) The Motherhood belt seems to be just for back support. This one, however, provides both!
I have the same complaints about it that other reviewers have noted - the shoulder straps show above the collar of most shirts (I solve this by safety pinning it to my bra straps - i'd like to attach something like lingere snaps directly to the shoulder straps, so I can just snap it around my bra straps). That helps for the collar problem with most shirts. It is still a problem with lower cut and v-neck shirts.
I do wish there were more eye hooks on the part that supports my belly. I was a size 6 before pregnancy, and at 21 weeks with twins I have a belly about the same size as mine was when I was full term with my singleton 1st baby. I've been switching between the middle and loosest hooks. An option to hook it between those two would probably work better. It does look like it would be easy to add an extra set of eye hooks (and I just might do that), but so far it has been more of a minor irritation. I start most days on the middle hooks, and if/when it starts to feel like it's digging in I just adjust it to the looser option and it's fine for the rest of the day. Slightly less support that way, but still leaps and bounds better than no support.
It is incredibly easy to make all of the adjustments while wearing this product. I can easily and quickly adjust it during one of my frequent trips to the bathroom at work. I wear the style of maternity pants that come up over my belly, so I do need to pull that down in order to adjust the belly support. It is not necessary to take it off or adjust it when going to the bathroom. (I remember the Maternity one being uncomfortable going to the bathroom while wearing). It is flexible enough to adjust well enough that it does not dig in anywhere while sitting.
Although I wasn't experiencing any back pain before wearing this, I'm really loving the excellent back support. It feels great, and I have noticed that it helps me keep better posture, which I'm sure will prevent future back pain.
Highly recommend this product, and also hope the manufacturer works on fixes for the two problems noted above (don't let those two things keep you from purchasing this product, though - they're minor and it's possible to work around them, which is worth it considering the incredible support it provides).", "label": 1}

Had I paid the full price tag I would have likely reduced the rating to 4 stars purely because I'm anal about the smaller details.
What it gets right - is perhaps the most important element, telling you your weight! I've tested the unit about 18 times on 3 different surfaces around the house. Be aware that the first time you weight yourself (even after moving the scale) the scale seems to calibrate itself. It's off by about 5 lbs the first attempt. Each subsequent attempt (5x on each surface) is within .4 lbs of the other attempts. This accuracy combined with the body measure tape will give you two solid measurements to track your progress. Speaking of the measuring tape, it works well and is a nice added bonus. I opted for the silver edition to match my satin nickel accessorized bathroom, and it goes quite well together. Overall the fit and finish is pretty solid, from afar the unit looks quite appealing.
What it starts to diminish with - is the finer details. My largest gripe is that the base does not sit even with the glass. On the left side the gap is 1/2", but on the right side it's 7/16". Again, this is me being anal. If you're looking at it from far it's hardly noticeable.
Where the glass meets the base the scale has pads that feature a nice chrome mirror finish with concentric circles reminiscent of a vinyl record. However the majority of the base itself is a bland silver-ish color indicative of its price tag. One thing that irks me is the one liner "Max=400lbs D=0.2lbs" below the digital display. I feel it ruins the more expensive vibe it tries to give off, this kind of tag could have just been inserted into an instruction manual or underneath the unit. Also, the box image (4 of 5) is most indicative of the product you will receive. It has a two liner etched into the bottom center of the glass "MOSISO Smart Step On Technology." Again, I feel like it cheapens the unit. It would have been nice if it were just a sticker and removable. Of course the body measure tape includes a MOSISO branding as well. For a freebie I'm not complaining though!
Overall I like the unit a lot, the body measure tape is a freebie I don't often see so it's nice to be able to track two different metrics. At the end of the day it's a scale, and as long as it's repeatably accurate that's all that matters.", "label": 1}

My story: I\u2019d had a terrible UTI after sex (I know it was sex for sure) in January of this year (2016), was put on nitrofurantoin (macrobid), and it resolved, but I never felt quite right after. I avoided sex until April, 2016, and I developed another severe UTI. The day of sex I was normal, next day bloody urine, no gradual build-up of pain or anything. I\u2019m very lucky I had a wonderful doctor at my local urgent care, because after not having a UTI for the first 6.5 years of my relationship with one person, I\u2019m suddenly getting UTIs immediately after sex, EVERY TIME? She referred me to a urologist, but in the wait to see him, again, I didn\u2019t feel right, pressure in my bladder that would get painful if jostled too much, like in a car. Was put on ciprofloxacin because I\u2019d already taken nitrofurantoin, and just in case I had a strain of bacteria that wasn\u2019t able to be cultured, but was there and needed to be killed.
When I finally saw the urologist (June), he put me on trimethoprim at the lowest dose possible, as a preventative while my bladder mucosal lining healed after being DESTROYED by my severe UTIs (which can take 4-6 months, this is also why women have a higher chance of getting a UTI within the first 6mos after a previous UTI. The bladder hasn\u2019t fully recovered and is more susceptible to infection). But he also told me that I definitely should get a D-Mannose supplement, because anecdotally his clients have been loving it. He even printed out an abstract of the most recent clinical trial to back it up, which convinced me to try it. So I immediately found a bottle and my pain resolved within days. It basically does what pop culture makes you think cranberry juice is supposed to do.
I prefer the powder format, because the pills are gigantic and you have to take 3-4 of them to get the full effect of a teaspoon of the powder form. I put the powder in my water bottle before I leave for work/school, and try to drink it within an hour instead of sipping it throughout the day.
Yes it\u2019s a bit expensive, but if you haven\u2019t had a UTI in a long time/ever, but just want a preventative, taking it every few days and before and after sex is good practice. If you\u2019re like me and had interstitial cystitis that WOULD NOT RESOLVE, this is perfect in combination with prophylactic antibiotics, and life long preventative after the antibiotic course is over.", "label": 1}

The seams are all still good and I can tell it'll be good for years to come. 100% glad I bought this one.
I work as a mobile phlebotomist, meaning I drive house to house, drawing blood specimens, doing point of care testing, taking measurements and medical history. I wanted a professional looking bag that I could keep all of my supplies in and I saw how great the trauma bags were at my local ambulance corps were so I bought this one! I can finally carry just one bag for work.
PROS:
-Fits all the stuff I need for work, including the small floor scale I use to weigh patients (it even fits with a bit of wiggle room!) Extra needles, urine cups, extra blood tubes, a small sharps box, alcohol swabs, BP cuff, trauma supplies (band aids, gauze, tape, dressing etc), it fits oral airways on the loops that you see on the pictures on the main flap, penlight, ring cutters, CPR mask, and a folder with everybody's paperwork. It even fits extra lab kits in the side pockets.
-And with the dividers it comes with, it all fits *neatly*, too.
-The material is tough, so I'm pretty sure it'll last a long time.
CONS
-The loops I put the airways in are all the same sized loop. They're just a little too big for the small airways and they fit the big airways very tightly. The penlight is a bit loose on the loop (just hanging onto that loop by the clip)
-On the front side there you see a big star of life but on the back side, there's a big "LIGHTNING X PRODUCTS" logo. I personally think it's kinda tacky to put big logos on stuff, especially medical/trauma bags. But at least the logo doesn't look bad.
All in all, I'm very glad I bought this. For all you mobile phlebotomists or mobile medical examiners, this is a great bag. *especially* for the price. For all you EMT's out there, this would definitely make a good jump bag for your car.", "label": 1}

I'm still not sure what I had exactly, whether it be a chalazion or stye, but it was swollen, red, painful, and got to the point where it was hindering my vision. It also did not have a visible head to it except for bit of redness right under my eye lid. I read online, that at the point it got to I should of gone to the doctor, but there were plenty of people who said they went and surgery was the only option for relief. I did not want to have surgery done on my eyelid especially if there was a way I can resolve this issue at home. I did my fair share of research for home remedies, at first I tried just a hot compresses when I noticed a small bump higher up on my eyelid start forming since at this point it was only swollen once I woke up and only painful if put a bit of pressure on it. A few days later it was even more swollen and larger so I tried ACV. This didn't seam to help at all, and I think it was because there was no visible head to it. I ended up getting TRP Stye Relief at the store which helped with the pain. By then it was larger but stopped causing swelling to the entire eye.
I was like you probably scoping the Internet to try and find some answers and way to get rid of this thing. There were a lot of good reviews on this product so I thought why not and gave it a shot. After using it for a couple days my bump has gone done by 50% and there is no more pain. It is also really soothing since using the hot compresses, ACV, and washing it made my eye area tender. The oil is really thick and a little goes a long way too. I wake up, wash it, put a hot compress for 20 minutes then then I just rub the oil on the bump, under my lash line and I also pick up my eyelid and apply a bit under as well. Then before bed I wash it, do the hot compress and then apply the oil again. It is still on its way to healing but I just wanted to say that it is working. So far it has helped tremendously, since I thought I was never going to get rid of this thing it the slightest way.

Last Thursday, July 25, the light failed to come on, and I called Verilux. Theresa explained that the first step in warranty service is to send the customer a replacement bulb. If that doesn't solve the problem, the next step is to send the customer a replacement ballast. The bulb arrived four days later, i.e., Monday, July 29. That was all it took. Kudos to Verilux for speedy, cheerful and efficient warranty service. Why a 10,000 hour bulb failed after 7.5 months of normal use is another matter.
(end of update)
This floor lamp looks mighty handsome next to our recliner chair, puts out more than enough illumination in three strengths, and adjusts many ways to throw the light where you want it. Despite all the adjustability, I was surprised to find that the angle and rotation setting of the head aren't that critical. The lamp generates a very wide beam - more like a blanket - that bathes my entire lap in light. The light is very white without being overly cool (i.e., blueish) and is very easy on the eyes. The base is quite heavy and the two sections of the pole screw on solid with no wobble. Unlike another reviewer's experience, the model I received has enough of a machined screw-type head protruding from the base to support the lamp.
The high-medium-low-off rotary switch is reachable from your chair - just lift your arm to turn the lamp on or off. The height adjustment, alas, is not very convenient. You raise or lower the lamp head by first loosening the height adjusting collar (visible on the product illustration). You then pull the head up or push it down. To do this, though, you must either feed in extra cord or pull out the excess. For other than the smallest adjustment, you can't do this from your chair.
It is also worth noting that the first unit I received flickered at the lowest setting until it warmed up. I called Verilux, who told me that this was not normal behavior, and that the reason for the flicker might be other than a defective bulb. Thanks to Amazon's super return policy, I had a replacement unit that worked properly within days. Be aware that once you're beyond Amazon's return period, the true cost of warranty service from Verilux (1 year limited) is substantial. The reason is that you must pay to ship this heavy object to Verilux, and Verilux currently charges over $20 to ship it back to you after servicing it.
All in all, the Verilux Heritage Lamp eliminates eyestrain while adding warmth to our home. I'm very satisfied with this product.", "label": 1}

My blood pressure (BP) has always been a little high. It's great to be able to track it at home with a straightforward, compact, lightweight, easy-to-read, easy-to-use device like this. It is SUPER easy to use. The most difficult part is putting the arm cuff on, and that's easy! Once you have the arm cuff in the correct position, slightly above the elbow, attach the hose to the main unit and press start. The built in voice guidance is fairly good and understandable. The cuff will inflate and your BP will register on the bright, crystal clear screen. When the reading is all done, the unit will read the results aloud and give you a prognosis. Depending on what you're shooting for, your interpretation of the numbers may be a little different than what it says though.
The unit itself is lightweight, but feels like it's well made. I like the clean design a lot, too. The edges are all rouned so it's easy to handle and hold. The LED screen is super crystal clear and easy to read... in fact, I'm not 100% certain, but I think it may be OLED. There are four rubber feet on the bottom along with the the speaker. The cuff is easy to insert and remove. The design is great.
It comes with a nice little carry case that fits the main unit, the arm cuff and a USB-A to USB-C cable for using it without batteries (and it includes 4xAAA batteries).
Overall, it is an excellent quality device at an incredible price point. I gotta say that at this price, everyone should have one of these along with a fingertip blood oxygen monitor and maybe even one of the new ECG (EKG) readers. Take charge of your health. The first step is knowing your readings. Highly recommended.
Just a little side note: One of the most important things in taking an accurate BP reading is to be relaxed. If you look up info on the proper procedure, you're really not supposed to be doing any activity for at least 10 to 15 minutes prior to the reading and certainly you wouldn't take a BP reading for hours after any strenuous excercise. BP is very sensitive to both physical activity and stress. IMO the best time to do it is when you're relaxing at home, maybe even just prior to going to bed. When you put the cuff on, try to stay calm and let it do it's thing. You can throw off a reading by a lot just by being tense.", "label": 1}

A couple of years back, I had some surgical procedures in my mouth as a result of some receding gum lines, that required gum grafts. That really is as unpleasant as it sounds. I mentioned that, because at the time it was difficult to eat solid foods for a while, so I was more or less on a liquid diet. I would very much like to have had this protein at that time, as a meal replacement because I feel it would have done a very good job of offering a good overall nutritional value. In this case, I have been using it as a post workout recovery drink. For that purpose, it works very well too. I do fairly high impact resistance training, so by the end of it I'm spent. My muscles certainly benefit from post workout recovery drinks that are protein rich, and will encourage muscle regeneration and synthesis. I found that this protein did nicely at helping me recover from my workouts. I have had the opportunity of trying the vanilla flavored one as well, and I think I actually prefer that one to the chocolate. My wife on the other hand, very much prefers the chocolate. So, I guess you can see that it's obviously going to be subjective. I personally found the chocolate to be a little sweet for my taste. So it's no surprise that my wife liked it, because she has quite the sweet tooth. I did find it to have just a touch of a grainy texture, but certainly nowhere near as bad as others that I have tried. I use a ninja blender that has a smoothie attachment, and that thing does a pretty incredible job of pulverizing the powder. I make my shakes very simply by just adding ice and water, with a couple scoops of this protein powder. As far as the ratios of how much water to powder I use, I usually experiment with that and don't pay much attention to the recommendations by the manufacturer. Personally, I prefer to dilute it a little bit in more water, as I find that makes for a more pleasant drink. All in all, I do like the fact that it has a good nutritional balance of fibers, vitamins, and minerals, as well as the protein content.

Needless to say I haven't been around to do that or I haven't picked up on her kitty cues exactly when she's wanting to go 100% of the time and thus she's soiled a lot of fabric-covered things in my home over the past two years!
I've taken to using waterproof mats (like you might put in a crib, etc) on my chairs, sofa, bed, etc. However, as I don't want my apartment just looking like a giant wee wee pad, I've been covering them with multiple colorful 100% cotton throws that I can also toss into the wash.
Let me tell you, cat piss stinks, female, male, it all stinks!!! I've tried a lot of things and no matter how quickly you get a soiled item into the wash, most of those products don't fully get the stink out. I gave Skout's Honor Laundry Booster a try last year and it is now my go-to product. I don't even follow the directions. I just get the wash started with Persil detergent (because it also had great reviews for getting the stink out) and squirt a very generous amount of the Skout's Honor in with it, like maybe 1/2-3/4 cup depending how bad I think the situation is. I let it agitate just a bit to be sure all the laundry is covered with liquid and to give it all a better chance to mix in. Then I stop it for an hour and just let it soak (have old school upright coin-operated machine in our laundry room, so that means I just lift the lid and it stops:).
After that I let the whole wash, rinse, spin cycle continue and dry it as usual in the dryer. I always give it the sniff test when all is finished and I have not been disappointed yet! I have some other products in the laundry room that are meant to do the same thing, but I can't bring myself to try them now, because I've been disappointed before-- nothing like a failed sniff test--yuck!
Skout's Honor just works for me. So those other bottles will continue to sit on the shelf while I place an order for my 4th bottle of Skout's Honor Laundry Booster! And no I have not received any free product for my review, although I would love some:)!", "label": 1}

The repairvite helps with "leaky gut" - an issue many people have but don't realize. Both men and women have yeast and bacteria overgrowth in their digestive systems, especially if you have ever taken antibiotics - antibiotics throw your yeast balance out of whack. Most men think yeast imbalances are for women but they are not. Anyway if you have an overgrowth of yeast and bacteria in your gut, over time it turns into a fungus and burrows through the lining of your colon - then it leaks out into the rest of your body. This can cause you to become toxic and over-produce mucus. I'm not a super science person so I advise you to look it up for yourself, ha but all I can say is that with my ulcerative colitis my other organs filtering organs have had to compensate for my colon's lack and for filtering my leaky gut (which I never knew I had) and so after having my organs scanned by Ann, I found out that my gallbladder, liver, kidneys, lungs, colon, and adrenal glands were like "sludge" I am unable to digest food and filter out toxins. Taking this repairvite dramatically changed that, after 1 month I had my body scanned again and there was drastic improvement. My colon is still toxic so I am still on the system and she has me on some other supplements (we are working on a set of organs at a time each month so I don't overload my body with too much detoxing).
I am feeling MUCH better - which is saying a lot because for over 10 years I have tried so many detox programs to alleviate the agony of my colon.
The only downside is that it has really scratchy pieces of some sort of fiber or herb that they use. I got used to the taste mixing it with water after a few days and it tasted better than any other drinkable supplement that I have taken. I also mixed it with coconut milk on a few occasions and it tasted awesome like an actual caramel shake!
If your digestive system could use some healing, I would highly recommend this!", "label": 1}

THE SETUP
I was able to setup the scale for myself fairly easily, but there's another in my house and inviting his email always failed. We just got an error message that said he couldn't be added. I contacted support and they literally didn't have clue. I've developed enough Web sites in my time to know that it's fairly easy to set up error and exception logging, so I'm not sure why they were so slow to help. Finally, after a week of weighing myself, support suggested I delete my account (the primary) and try to add my friend as the primary and then reinvite myself since it seemed my address had already gone through once. I immediately questioned if they were sure about this advice, because I'd lose my data and a weeks worth of measurements. I heard back 24 hours later from someone else saying that was the wrong advice, and I never should been told to do that. Thankfully, I was smart enough to know and hadn't. Another week went by and the invite just started working magically.
USE
Compared to the Withings scale, the measurement and display seems clunky. I can never quite tell what it's doing and if you're not careful about moving around, you'll get duplicate measures. It does vary a lot. You can step on it a minute later get entirely different readings. To be fair, the same is true of the Withings scale, and I think digital scales in general. The Aria though, weighed me consistently 2 pounds heavier than the Withing scale. My body fat percentage was always about 2 - 3 points less though.
DATA
The Withings Website beats Fitbit's far and away when it comes to tracking and visualizing weight and body fat data. Afterall, weight and BMI are pretty much meaningless numbers if lean mass aren't taken into account. But I could never figure out how to get the Fitbit website to actually tell me how many pounds of body fat it registered, as opposed to just the percentage. Withings does that quite nicely and it also has a beautiful mobile app that I like even more than the Web site. I could've sworn hovering over the measures showed actual pounds of body fat, not just percents, but that seemed to stop a few days in. Withings will also show you lean mass, which the Aria doesn't seem to do.
I might've kept the scale had it not been for the technical problems inviting other users, the clunky display and the poor use of data on their web site.", "label": 0}

A few years ago, I had a single back strap style bought it from a brick and mortar store. After putting it on over a hoodie twice while trying it out to keep it very clean, I felt nothing different, and I wasn't sure what it was trying to do so I returned it. However, for this style I have now, I do feel my shoulders being pulled back, nothing else though. Truthfully..., I really don't know what exactly you are suppose to feel straightening up, since I only feel my shoulders being squeezed together. I guess, it's doing something! LOL! But time will tell when if my neck is able to hold my head up higher without constantly dropping it back down. Hopefully! After time it won't say, \"Nope!

Look at the nice zip lock storage packaging, along with the colorful detailed instructions card to hang up on the frig. Well... that's where I put it as a reminder to don't take another snack, and put it on. Also, the comfort wraps, those square things are nice and thick, plus also made very well. The weather is hot, so I do think after many hand washing cycles, all three items will hold up for a very long time. LOL! Of course I can't forget to mention the disappointing cons, well its only one. The wrap around pull straps are too short. Yet, on Amazon they appear much longer, but they are little wee bit difficult to grap to pull, and if someone with a much wider upper back, the straps may end up fastening slightly under their armpits instead of closer to their shoulders as pictured. But if it does, I guess you could try giving the comfort wraps a go under the armpits. So would I recommend this style of \"Posture Corrector\" to friends. ABSOLUTELY\u263a!!! It's made very well.

Overall Opinion: If you live an active lifestyle BUY THIS PRODUCT from hiking to kayaking to basketball EPO-Support will help keep you going. I suffered from chronic pains post a vehicle accident which prevented me from maintaining my active lifestyle for roughly a year now; I have since tried to return to the activities I love though routinely experienced a lack of energy and debilitating cramping in my legs (hiking/ basketball). However, since I have added EPO - Support on a routine basis I have seen a dramatic improvement in both aspects. ViMulti has aided me greatly in restoring my life and has gained a loyal customer in the process. Thank you....

It's one long 13 ft. sliver of cotton all wound up and packaged in a zip lock bag. This cotton is probably the best wick I've ever tried. It's clean, has no chemical taste, no dyes added, nothing. U will find a black specks here and there but those are just lil pieces from the actual cotton plant, and it just tells u that it's true, unprocessed, organic cotton. This stuff wicks SOO good, once u finally find the end of the cotton sliver, u just cut a small length off, and then that can actually peel it in half or in 3rds, or even 4ths depending on ur wicking preferences. One 13 ft. Bag can last u a long time if ur good at only cutting off wut u need and not wasting the rest that u've peeled off. Honestly I say less, is more when it comes to wicking my coils. I can pull a single piece apart multiple times and save it for later. But once u have ur preferd piece of cotton cut, it passes thru ur coils really smoothly, it doesn't fall apart or get stray threads caught up on a sharp edges or wutever, or loose it's integrity. And this stuff is so light and fluffy, once ur coils are all wicked up and u start adding juice, u will be amazed by how much this stuff will absorb, it sucks the juice up super fast and holds soo much. I've wicked multiple builds in the 2 1/2 weeks that I've had this cotton, and vaped the begeezuz out of them with no problems, hit after hit, day after day, chain vaping, wutrver and I haven't gotten one single dry hit and it doesn't get burn either, this stuff wicks great, last long, and the flavor and clouds it produces is insane, obviously a lot of that has to due with the coil ur vaping to, but this cotton, compared to others is all around much much better. I've tried tons of other wicks, cotton bacon, native wicks, organic pads, those crappy shoelace style wicks, and plenty others, and I have to say this is probably hands down the BEST wick I've ever tried.

I purchased the 6 bottle deal because it was the best value, and I wanted to try a few scents. Although not all of the scents deserve a 5 star rating (in my opinion), their cleaning ability, natural ingredients, and the included microfiber towel make up for a couple of misses in the fragrances.
Obviously, the appeal of a scent is very subjective, but this is what worked for me and what did not.
5 Stars: Soothing Sweet Rose
I normally hate floral scents. In fact perfume gives me migraines. This has none of the typical cloying smells that are generally found in floral-scented products. The rose smells like what you would find in a garden, not on a store shelf. The scent is not overpowering, but it is strong enough to be enjoyed while using the mat. This quickly became my favorite out of all of the bottles, and I wish I could buy just this scent in a 6 pack.
5 Stars: Energizing Peppermint
This is a close second to the rose scent. It is refreshing but not overwhelming; in fact, the scent is fairly faint, even while being applied. It is just enough to notice during savasana.
4 Stars: Uplifting Eucalyptus
I HATED this scent when I first tried it. My first thought was that I had just coated my mat with the equivalent of Vicks VapoRub. I was wondering how to get the stench off of the mat before I began my practice, and the only positive I could come up with was that it might be nice if I used it when I had a cold. Surprisingly, once it dried, the scent was really pleasant. The medicine smell dissipated, and what was left was enjoyable even through extended Child's Pose.
1 Star: Calming Citrus
This was one of the scents that I expected to like the most, and the scent literally made me feel nauseous. It smelled like I had doused my mat in 409. Despite the natural ingredients (and yes, I double checked that nothing artificial had been slipped into this bottle), it was overpowering and artificial smelling. I think this could be salvaged with the addition of a ginger scent, but as it is, it is unbearable.
I didn't try the lavender since I purchased that for my daughter, but it seems like enough other reviews have covered that anyway. I haven't tried the unscented either since I enjoy the other scents too much to take a break from them for now.", "label": 1}

This is a good option to ease into using Serrapeptase if you have never used it before. It\u2019s also a good option for those who cannot tolerate the capsules. Serrapeptase is powerful stuff and and the capsules can cause very unpleasant side effects like nausea, headaches, and dizziness in first-time users. It\u2019s best to start slow and in small doses. Although this product claims to have the same effectiveness as 120,000 SU capsules, that is simply not true, but it does have an effect. It\u2019s just a mild one, and that makes it a great way to ease into using Serrapeptase. When I started using this, I had never used Serrapeptase in any form before. I wanted to heal my painful fibrocystic breasts and as a side bonus clear up my allergy-induced sinus issues. I tried the recommended dose (two pumps a day)with no effect whatsoever. I increased to a second dose per day then a third dose\u2014taking a dose (two pumps) roughly every 8 hours. Still no noticeable effects. But the bottle says each dose gives only 3500SU and so 3 doses was still only about 10,000SU per day. So I began taking a double dose (4 pumps) 3 times a day to get 20,000SU. At that dose my sinus issues were about 75% improved, but no effect on breast pain. Still no side effects, however, the taste is not pleasant and when you use that much a day the taste becomes overwhelming! I realized I needed something stronger for my breast pain, so I began using 45,000SU capsules. The first time I took one (on an empty stomach) I knew they were much stronger than this spray. Within 30 minutes the Serrapeptase hit my blood stream and I felt woozy and had a slight headache for several hours. At that point I was very grateful to this sublingual product for helping me work up a tolerance for Serrapeptase very gradually. I\u2019m sure that if I had started with the capsules first, my side effects would have been much worse. I was able to adjust to the capsules by taking one every other day and using this product on the days I didn\u2019t use the capsules until the side effects of the capsules lessened. The capsules do a better job of completely clearing my sinuses and also lessening breast pain. I hope eventually the fibrocystic breast disease will heal thanks to Serrapeptase. I did recently try some 120,000SU capsules and that dose causes my to get a bad headache and feel dizzy for hours. There\u2019s no way that two pumps of this stuff is that strong!

We kept this one, but I'm still not certain it's the best one for my folks' situation. (If I'd been able to find the EZY-Dose 4 a day / Weekly in Large, which NOW Amazon has, that would have been a serious contender. We'd found the medium but its compartments were too small.)
Pros:
- The pill compartments are good-sized and can hold Dad's two \"horse pills\" in one slot. The dividers can be rearranged, too, to make bigger slots (leaving fewer times per day).
- You can take out the pill bays to take with you if you won't be home when it's time for pills, and you're not stuck carrying the whole shebang.
- It has an attractive design that doesn't scream \"pills!\"
- It is so much easier to fill than the kind with individually hinged lids. Take off their lids, and plop plop plop!
Cons:
- The lid of the carrier case that holds the 7 individual pill bays is colored plastic, as are the lids of the individual pill bays. That means if you have the case closed, you're looking through two layers of colored plastic to see if you've taken your pills. If you order online where you're taking a chance on the color you get, you risk getting the smokey grey. With that color, it's going to be harder to see whether the pills were taken without lifting the carrier case lid, because the two layers of colored plastic are hard to see through. (Having just had it fall out of the cabinet, I'm glad the lid was there -- the bays would have popped open if they hadn't been in a case.) The picture shown for the product on Amazon showing the aqua one shows aqua's sheerness pretty accurately. I've seen aqua, fluorescent yellow, and smokey grey in person, and the first two are very easy to see through.
- If you're buying this product for a senior or someone with less manual dexterity, it may be too easy to accidentally uncover too much of a slot and dump out pills from another time frame. I told my mom to try to uncover only half the slot she needed so she wouldn't accidentally get pills from the next time slot.
- If you're buying this for a senior or someone with less mental dexterity, the lack of labelling may be confusing. I wish they'd provided labels to stick in the bays to help with when pills get taken. I lined the bottoms of the bays with strips of papers on which I'd written the times each set gets taken.", "label": 1}

Honestly, this is not what I was expecting or hoping for. The size is fine. It's states that thes7e are 24cm long up to size 6 shoe, which would be a 7-8 woman's shoe when you jump from kids/mens sizing over to woman's/
I bought this pair more for our 14yo daughter who wears a 6-7 woman's shoe, or if she didn't like it or ift her, out youngest wears a kids 2, so I knew I oculd cut it down for him.
So, really the size is fine. But, I think MOST poeple looking for a kid's insole probably want the small or med and probably want to err more on the smaller side -ordering smaller not bigger in THIS item for kids near the line of 2 sizes.
ok, so, I'm disappointed because it's listed as an "Orthtotic Sports Insole Arch and Comfort Support". Two works stook out to me when chooising what to buy. ORTHOTIC and ARCH Support. My kids all have very flat feet, with ankle pronation and other effects from the lack of internal arch support. I do try to buy them shoes with support, and like to have inserts to help, especially with shoes that are severly lacking.
The Arch support in these insoles is frankly pathetic. The blue you see in the pucture is what provides the "Arch support" it's a very thin, very light plactic that doesvnot hold shape with any reasonalble pressure.
The create a real arch support you have to have a firm, relentless plactic that doens't give in to pressure, otherwise, why waste plactic there, other than to look like it's doing something.
I gave them to my daughter to try and she said the insoles are too think, don't really add much for her shoes.
I do like the grippy material on the bottom - wish other insoles had that.
They would work fine in a shoe that is missing it's insoles or really only has a flat piece of thin foam - they are better than that. But, these are NOT an orthotic and do not have any real arch support. A shame really.
I'm not sure if these will get used at all. I don't think my daughter wants to bother with them, and I won't use them for our younger son unless they replace something that provides less support.

Years ago, that was difficult if you didn't have a bunch of books on hand already. It meant checking out books from the Library and studying things out. We acquired many books and much study material on Health. Presently, it is so much easier to look things up online. It has been said; Ignorance is a choice in the age of the internet.
This brings us to the topic at hand literally, Haha. It is Beta Sitosterol by Spectra Essentials.
I was offered the chance to check out this great supplement at a reduced price and agreed to give an honest review. Well, I already knew of the benefits of taking Bata Sitosterol from listening to Dr. Asa on the radio and from other sources, so I didn't think I needed to research this one.
I already knew it is good for the Prostate and lowering Cholesterol. But what I didn't know is HOW it works. So to the internet I went. I saw all the information on what it does for example; it works as part of a cholesterol-lowering diet. It is good for preventing heart disease and a host of other things. The federal Food and Drug Administration even allows manufacturers to claim that foods containing plant sterol esters, such as beta-sitosterol are good for reducing the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). This is based on the FDA\u2019s conclusion that plant sterol esters may reduce the risk of CHD by lowering blood cholesterol levels.
So how then, does it work?
Beta-sitosterol is a plant substance similar to cholesterol. It might help reduce cholesterol levels by limiting the amount of cholesterol that is able to enter the body. It can also bind to the prostate to help reduce swelling (inflammation). Now I know that inflammation is a major cause of all manner of illness, so I am all about reducing inflammation. We already don't eat white flour and white sugar products just to prevent disease. My wife and I are in good health. No real health problems. We take no prescription meds. We have always been about prevention.
It is for this reason I will take Beta Sitosterol, to keep from having issues.

I take 6 daily meds, various sizes. These have 7 compartments, 3 larger, 4 smaller. One of my pills is longer and bigger around than a Tylenol 500mg gelcap. One larger compartment holds exactly 8, oriented sideways. All my other pills are much smaller, so I can easily fit 8 or more in the other compartments. I use the 7th for Tylenol. I get to be the hero when I pull some out of my pink pill case for a coworker suffering a headache. I don\u2019t know how many times it\u2019s come in handy, just for that alone.
The container for the pills comes out of the carry case, so it\u2019s easier to clean. The fact that you get two is also a nice bonus. You can still use one while you\u2019re waiting on one to dry after washing.
I love(!) that it latches shut. I don\u2019t have to worry about it coming open in my purse. (Meds are expensive, don\u2019t want to lose any...) That was one reason I didn\u2019t want the regular kind you find at drug stores, since they don\u2019t seem secure.
I don\u2019t notice any kind of odor, other than a faint plastic smell, but that\u2019s everything when it\u2019s new. There\u2019s absolutely nothing flimsy about this. Even the inner pill holder feels tougher than I was expecting. Everything latches with a nice, audible \u201csnap,\u201d but they aren\u2019t hard to open, which is a wonder.
My only \u201ccomplaint\u201d (if you can even call it that), is that the compartment on the far right is sliiiiightly smaller than the other two larger compartments. I think it\u2019s because the edges are rounded. This would only be a problem if you needed to stuff all three with an exact number of larger pills, though. When I was trying to fit 8 of my largest pills, the lid to the inner compartment wouldn\u2019t close, so I moved them to the middle larger compartment and that solved that.
Over all, these are fantastic for carrying around your pills without rattling every time you move, and I could see how they\u2019d be great for traveling, though I haven\u2019t taken them on a plane yet (I fully intend to!).

It has a nice long cord so I don't feel like I'm tied to the wall when I'm using it. A push of the power button and it powers on and quickly starts heating up. The buttons lock after 5 seconds, so if you miss setting your temperature at first, you can either hold down the power button to shut it off and restart it, or double press it to unclock the keys and adjust the temperature from there. It goes up to 450 degrees and only takes 3 minutes to get to that temperature. I set mine to 400 and it took around 2 minutes to get there. If you prefer to view centigrade temperatures, you can press both temperature control buttons "+" and "-" at the same time.
The brush also came with a couple of plastic to help separate your hair. I also really appreciate that it came with a glove as well to help you from getting burned which gave me peace of mind while I was using the brush knowing that I didn't have to focus on not getting my fingers too close to the bristles, but instead just getting my hair right. There are a good amount of bristles and they are spread over the brush in a manner that is helpful to really get into my hair, but also not put too much tension on my hair and the bristles don't snag my hair.
I like that it is offered in 2 color choices, I chose the black and blue one, but appreciate that others may prefer pink. The LCD screen displays the temperature. The handle stays cool to the touch. If for some reason, you forgot to turn off the brush, it should auto-shutoff after 1 hour. Although, I always unplug mine and let it cool off after I am done using it.
Included in my picture, the left side gives you an idea of what my hair looked like before using this brush, and on the right side is after using it.
I think this brush is a great value and I would highly recommend it to anyone who would use a straightener!!!

The cushioning is VERY high quality gel and adjusts to my sitting position. However, it is a surprisingly heavy item, so if you have a bad back, the weight is something to consider if you are going to be toting it around.
In order to be sure I don't leave this expensive cushion in a restaurant or lose it, I took some precautions. First, I left it in the decent-quality plastic carrying case which came the cusion (makes for easy cleaning). I put my name/phone/e-mail on a piece of paper and put it inside the clear plastic cover. If I leave it some place, the finder can reach me.
In order to ensure I don't leave the cusion behind in a restaurant/theater, etc., I created a way to clip it to my belt loop when I sit down. Here's how:
Get a 2' length of bungie cord from Orchard Supply Hardware (about 1/3 as thick as regular bungie cord - no hooks on ends). Attach it to the carrying cord of the plastic cushion-cover with a key ring by doing the following:
Attach the bungie cord to the key ring by leading the bungie cord through the \"whole\" in the key ring and doubling it back. Then attach the doubled-back part (about 1\") to the rest of the 2' length bungie cord using a zip-tie. Singe the ends to prevent running.
Next, secure a D-ring (spring-loaded clip) on the other end of the 2' cord the same way (lead cord through ring, double back and secure with zip-tie).
So now you have a 2' bungie cord with a key ring on one end and a D-ring on the other.
Attach the key ring to the plastic cushion-cover by threading the key ring onto the carrying handle of the plastic cover (like putting a key on the ring). The other end of the bungie cord still has the D-ring attached.
When I go to a restaurant/movie/ball game, etc., I just clip the D-ring to the belt loop on my pants when I sit down (the other end is attached to the cusion's carrying cord). If I try to leave w/o the cushion, the cord attached to my belt loop will remind me to grab it.
I know it sounds goofy, but it has saved me many times from forgetting the cushion at a restaurant or at other event.
Hope this helps!", "label": 1}

When I am working at the fire department, I have a spacious, generously-garnished jump bag supplied to me by the station. Off duty, however, I am left to my own devices. This bag is perfect to keep in my car, take with me when staying with friends and family, and of course, when my younger and more reckless friends invite me to their college parties.
Most reviews complain of how small the bag is. However, it is exactly the size listed in the product description. In case you have trouble reading the product description, it is a little less than a foot wide. It has an adjustable divider in the center compartment (attached via velcro) to better accommodate each individual's organization methods.
To give you an accurate gauge of its spaciousness, I'll list everything that comfortably fits in my bag.
Left side compartment:
-a copious supply of nitrile gloves
Right side compartment:
-trauma shears
-mini note pad + pen for impromptu patient assessment, notes, and Hx
-pen light
-aspirin
-small bottle of hydrogen peroxide
-several packets of ketchup (great substitute for oral glucose in a pinch for someone with low blood sugar!)
Center compartment:
-alcohol pads x 6
-antiseptic wipes x 5
-lidocaine insect sting wipes x 3
-burn cream
-antibiotic ointment
-cotton swabs and cotton balls
-4x4 gauze pads x 2
-2x2 gauze pads x 5
-3-inch rolled gauze x 2
-eye pads x 2
-many assorted bandages
-1-inch tape
-2-inch self-adhesive bandage wrap (honestly my favorite stuff in my bag)
-instant cold compress
-tongue depressors
-adult CPR pocket mask
-pediatric CPR pocket mask
-6 different-sized oropharyngeal airway adjuncts
Perhaps an exhausting list to read through, but I hope that gives a future potential buyer a good depiction of this bag's storage abilities. I grew up playing Tetris, so I've more or less mastered the art of optimally fitting as many things as possible into a small space.
The only downside I have found is that I really would have liked to see a shoulder strap. It's not a big deal though, seeing as I have many extra straps from old computer bags.
Including this bag, my entire emergency kit has cost me only around 60 dollars. I am seriously considering buying another to stock up and keep as a backup. Great product!", "label": 1}

We already had one that she bought from our local Chinatown, but we didn't have enough cups to do her entire back in one sessions which is why I decided to buy more.
Pros: It is really easy to using the pumping handle to take out the air from the cups. Most of the time, I use 2-3 pumps and it's sticking on my mom's back, and it will stay on the entire 15 minute session. On the originally cupping set, there were times I had to pump 8-10 times, even when it was new. The largest cups are huge. Bigger than my other cupping set so it covers more area. I usually use this for the lower back/hip area.
Cons: I mainly use cupping therapy on my mom's entire back so the smaller cups are not very useful for us. I think there's way more smaller cups than needed. This cupping set has twice as much as my old one. However, maybe others will disagree because of their own needs. Also, all the cups and handles are laid out on styrofoam so every time I had to take something out, it will make that horrible screeching sound. For those of you, who uses this for work, it might be easy for you to carry around if you have to walk around. My old set had a handle and you can carry it around like a briefcase but this one is just a box.
As a disclaimer, I did not try using the pump handle with the long tube. I am unsure how much it can help out in hard to reach places. I did test put a cup on my back by myself. Let me tell you, that's not going to work. First of all, not going to be long enough to reach the lower back, only upper back. Second of all, it's hard to keep it flat on your back unless someone does it for you so that defeats the purpose. Maybe it can be used on the shoulders.
Warnings: I normally perform the cupping therapy on my mom for 10 minutes. However, I read the instruction manual and it says it's possible to go up to 15 minutes. We did that, and my mom had a whole bunch of blisters on her back. I know this can happen if the skin is thin or the cupping therapy last too long. Therefore, be careful on the time especially if your patient is more sensitive to this. I know now to just keep the sessions to 10 minutes.", "label": 1}

Because of these medical problems & side effects of medication, mainly dizziness, there are times that it is not safe to shower. The portable bidet seemed to be an inexpensive and effective choice for the solution to this little problem.
The Palm arrived today and the directions could be a little more detailed (especially for those who are direction challanged - like me). After figuring it out (didn't take long) I did a test run. It was easy to use and now I feel that I can always be clean and fresh. This definitely gives me peace of mind. It will be much better than the \"sponge bath\" at the sink. Instead of trying to rinse with a wet washcloth, the Palm gives you a nice stream of fresh clean water. The water pressure is good - on a scale of 1 to 10, I would give it a 7.5. For a portable device, I think the pressure is really good. Just make sure that the nozzle is pointed in the right direction or you might be cleaning the wall or floor tile. I tried it at the sink first and almost sprayed it in my face.
The Palm is small which makes it easy to take it with you when traveling - it would fit easily into a large purse or carried discreetly in the travel pouch provided. You might have to refill it once to clean front & tushie but that's a small price to pay for cleanliness.
It's battery operated and does make some noise. If you're using it in a public restroom, someone might wonder what type of device you are using - maybe a vibrator rather than a portable bidet. Who cares, it's better to be clean than worry what someone else might be thinking. Just smile at the person if they're at the sink next to you when you're washing your hands. Thinking about using it in a public restroom, you should probably take a few paper towels into the stall with you so you can dry the small drops of water on the outside of the bidet.
I deliberated for a while trying to decide which portable bidet to purchase as I looked at the array offered on Amazon. It is well made and worth the price. I think I made an excellent choice.
I used it again and it I am impressed with the quality of the Bio-Bidet and I don't get impressed easily! I highly recommend this product!!!!!", "label": 1}

He\u2019s always wanted a massage chair, but the prices always seemed too high. We took a chance on this chair as a Christmas gift, and months later he still thanks me for making the purchase. He sits in it daily and has had a tremendous amount of relief as a result.
PROS:
-Works extremely well for back, legs, feet, and forearms.
-Comparable to more expensive chairs we\u2019ve tried at Brookstone.
-Allows for custom settings to either provide full or concentrated spot massaging focus with kneading, shiatsu, or simple vibration.
-Customizable in how far back you can recline.
-The benefits of the legs and feet massagers were a huge added bonus, and helped some pain that my husband didn\u2019t realize he had.
-Rollers are strong and can be adjusted for narrow or wide reach.
-Setup was easy and took 15 minutes or so.
-The seller and delivery folks were wonderful. They actually called to notify us that our original chair had been damaged in transit. Instead of giving us the damaged chair, they ordered and delivered a new one so we wouldn\u2019t have to deal with setting up and then returning a faulty chair. Their customer service, honesty, and integrity was very much appreciated.
NEUTRAL:
- the heat works but not well enough to really comment on it being a PRO. We didn\u2019t purchase this chair for that reason, however.
CONS:
- Like many chairs, this isn\u2019t the best for neck. It\u2019ll reach your neck and provide some comfort, but some of the other neck specific massagers do a better job.
-The remote beep is loud when you\u2019re moving the manual settings to spot adjust or decline the chair. We haven\u2019t found a way to lower the volume, but it\u2019s only a minor nuisance until you reach your desired spot.
-The massagers get louder if you use the chair for extended periods of time (1+ hour). This isn\u2019t an issue necessarily, but we were worried we had damaged the chair. That wasn\u2019t case, however. It\u2019s still working perfectly. Just be aware that it may happen.
OVERALL:
We felt like we were taking a gamble on this chair, given that we hadn\u2019t tried it, and we were nervous about such an expensive purchase. But nearly two months later, we absolutely love this chair, and our family may actually be purchasing another one.
Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a comparable chair at an affordable price!", "label": 1}

For a start, the bottle and box it comes in should be a different size and shape, just to get the message across, this is a DIFFERENT product that yoru typical lens cleaner and the instructions MUST be followed or severe eye injury may occur. If packaged the same as the others, the manufacturer can assume that the customer will not read the instructions, because who knows, the person using the product might be extremely exhausted or drunk or whatever, and not think twice about popping the lenses with this solution in the old case. For myself, I had originally opted to use my old case, because the case that came with it requires much more solution, and it seemed like a such a waste. When I took out the second lens, I must have had a tiny bit of solution on my fingers because it burned -- I instantly knew it wasn't the same product, thankfully without causing damage. I then read up on the product online, and about cases of new users who didn't read the label and ended up hurt.
The first sentence on the label warns not to put it directly in your eye, or burning will occur; a similar sentence appears on the ordinary, much milder solution. While the warning is in red, it would do nothing for those with red-green colorblindness -- additional signals are required. The second sentence warns to use the product only with the special case provided. That really should be the very first sentence and in huge, capital letters, explaining why this step is absolutely necessary. The idea that the solution needs to be neutralized,and that the case must interact with the solution to neutralize it would be counter-intuitive to most new customers. The majority of new users switching to this product from Complete or Renu, etc. will automatically assume that it can used the same way.
While this product works very well, I am giving it one star to signal to the manufacturer that they need to do a much better job of warning new users and distinguishing their product. The potential for injury for those who aren't vigilant is too great.
UPDATE: This morning, the hydrogen peroxide on the right contact lens did not neutralize properly, and it hurt badly. I'm wearing glasses today as a precaution. Usually when I open the case, the lens is on the convex bit of the case -- but this morning it was lodged on the concave portion. Don't know if that makes a difference, but perhaps it was situatied in a way that made it less accessible to getting neutralized. Guess that must have been it since the left lens was fine.", "label": 0}

I purchased 4 of these infant manikins to help with teacher CPR. I saw the price was quite a bit less than the others so I went with it knowing going the look and feel of them which are less quality.
It's weird, but I was actually excited opening up the boxes. I read the instructions and looked over all the items included. I placed a lung in the manikin which is kind of cumbersome compared to other manikins I've used but that's okay. As mentioned in another review, being able to see the chest rise can be difficult sometimes and requires a little practice which is fine.
Then I noticed by accident that when I picked up one belly facing the ground, the head came forward and popped off also taking the chest piece off. I put it back together as instructed using the bottom and top tabs of the chest, making sure the head was in correctly and the neck piece was in correctly. I lightly tapped it on the back and pop goes the head and chest again.
Thinking that this was just one defective manikin I opened up the other ones as they were indiviually boxed (packaged quite well actually) and tried the other ones. All of them have their head and chest pop off with very little effort. I tried to take a video showing how little force it actually takes. I know for certain my students whether they are adult or teens would easily and often pop these things apart which would make me look like a cheap instructor.
I called Nasco customer support as listed on the enclosed papers. The lady wasn't even sure what item I was talking about and then she finally figured it out and seemed confused. (I don't think they know their products very well). All she said is, "uh, I don't think they're supposed to do that" which I won't write what my reply was in my head. She suggested I return them to Amazon which is what I am doing. Thankfully Amazon has really good customer service.
I will be ordering different manikins and not only will I not order these again, I will be very vocal with anyone I know in my CPR circle that they should stay far, far away from these.

So don't be moving the cord around so much or else you'll be stopping all of the time just to put the plug back in. But other than that, it worked exceptionally well. The packaged arrived on the date of the expected delivery. I had an appointment that morning and when I returned at 12 noon, the package was left at my door on the stoop. That, I didn't like because anyone could have walked by and taken it. As soon as I opened it, I started using it. It took me 4 hours to do bother feet. I'm assuming 2 hours on each foot. My feet were baby soft and smooth. There's no way to contain all the dust on some newspaper like someone else had said. A big damp towel worked better for me. Of course, you're gonna have to sweep up afterwards. And, you're gonna have to get in the shower, as well. The product came with 2 blue rollers, but I had also ordered the green rollers. At first, I started using the blue rollers, but after a while I switched over to using the green rollers. The green rollers are better. They are more coarser than the blue ones and they work much deeper on the hard skin. Another thing, don't stay too long on one area of the foot, you don't want to make the area tender. Move the roller around as you go back and forth on the foot; but, add a little pressure as you roll it along. The more pressure you add, the deeper the roller will lift up the dead skin. Also, it's a good idea to knock some of that dust off of the roller as it can clog it up and it may slow up on you, which is what it did with me a couple of times. The product came with a little brush to clean the dust off, but I just rinsed mine off with some water on the non-electrical end, dried it off; and, then let it sit out to air dry for a few hours. Two other things I wanted to mention that was not described in the product description, is that, I was able to file down flat the thick toenails on each foot of my big toe. And an added bonus is that after you finish, your feet are gonna feel wonderful. Your feet will feel like you just had a foot massage. It's because of the vibration of the motor on your foot.

But figured after studying that Inositol can help sensitize the 5ht serotonin receptors and promote serotonin production. Which in any case would be great for people with Depression. I have read about lots of people taking Inositol after taking SSRI's for so long that they feared caused toxicity because while Re-uptaking can be good if you have too little serotonin it also prevents concentration. Taking Inositol seemed to have a beyond subtle effect on these people judging anecdotally.
But that's just the cherry on the icing of the cake as far as Inositol's far reaching benefits. Treating ailments involved with diabetes, Alzheimer's, Depression, OCD, Schizophrenia, ADHD, Autism are some it's other forays by balancing serotonin and other neurochemicals responsible for running amuck and causing things like Anxiety, panic attack. Inositol also causes hair growth and mental concentration.
In My Experience I have noted the subjective effects from doses ranging between 1,000 mg to 12 grams:
I received the package at my door rather quickly, it came equipped with a measuring spoon, and a COA proving it's level of purity. I added the powder to some water which made it taste really sweet so it goes down really smoothly. After anywhere between 30 minutes to an hour I felt distinctly myself if not moreso. I noticed little the first night until standing in front of my shower I felt awkward just having a nice shower and getting out like it was nothing... I realized about myself suddenly that I trapped myself in a maze of all these rituals such as drying off my body, and it felt impersonal. Oddly I stood there and as I did I felt like something was surrounding me and within seconds I felt this indescribable feeling like as if I was biologically apart of something unimaginably.
Ever since then every night I have been taking I have noticed I get along easier with people. One night while painting at a park at night where they have all these Christmas light props some girls came by and I was like a seething social butterfly, showing them some of my favorite blues musician's like old Howlin' Wolf, they liked my painting and soon all her friends came, and I noticed talking for me was much easier even around girls enough that one of them gave me her number.

I've been a clencher for about 7 years now, and it was pretty easily managed with another brand mouth guard up until I had an accident a year and a half ago. Since then, it seems like my clenching got worse or my muscles were different...I don't know, but it caused me near daily headaches and jaw pain. lately, it's been so bad that I use a heat pad daily (multiple times), and was constantly massaging the side of my jaw that I clench on, stretching my jaw, and trying my hardest to lie down with my jaw shifted to the other side to relieve the pain. Nothing worked. I'd reset any food I did whenever I slept because I'd go right back to clenching. It sucked. An ent (for another unrelated problem) suggested I get an "anti snore" mouthguard, even though I don't snore. He said it would set my lower jaw forward so I couldn't clench...but I wasn't okay with the price, and didn't like the idea of having such a huge contraption in my mouth to sleep, so I started googling. Found this and got it 100% because of the amazing reviews. Day 1, I woke up and didn't need to massage my jaw just so my bite would fit together. Pain returned late at night once I started to get tired. For half the day though, my jaw felt tight, but more normal than it had in awhile. Day two, same thing, but the headache seemed more manageable. I'm now at the end of day 3, and have gone the whole day without feeling the need to massage my jaw or "set" it back into place (I have some BIG strong knots from years of intense clenching).

I am really optimistic this will be a great long term solution...if I'm feeling this much better after 3 days, I can't wait to see what 3 weeks, months, years are like! This is GREAT for clenchers (I don't grind), and I could see it working well for grinders too because it comfortably holds your back teeth apart, just a little bit.

It arrived at my doorstep 5 days ago and the packaging made this look like a very sharp, neat, and professional product.
Immediately upon opening the package and observing the device, I noticed that the plastic was severely scuffed on one side, as if someone had dropped it with some significant momentum onto concrete or asphalt. This has lead me to strongly believe that this is NOT a condition-new oximeter. Further review of the product's page here on Amazon shows that there is no guarantee that the product bought would be new. So, I am 99.9% certain that I received a refurbished (and still slightly albeit cosmetically damaged) unit. Either that, or their Quality Control simply doesn't care about superficial damage. Regardless, I am deducting 1 start from my review for this alone.
The other two stars are deducted for a pretty significant issue with the device's function. It straight up does not work outside under moderately-bright sunshine. For the past 5 days, I've been using it indoors with no problem. In fact, when it works, it's great! There's a visual graph showing your pulse along with all the numbers that you would expect from a pulse-oximeter. However, on two separate occasions today (separated by a couple of hours), this device proved to simply not work when exposed to sunlight. I live on the coast of California and it has been somewhat overcast/foggy all day. I tried using it in my local supermarket's parking lot, and the device simply refused to acknowledge that there was even a finger in it, displaying flatline metrics and quickly returning to its powered-down state. Worked fine inside the store. Later, while out for a walk, I tried it again outside and again it failed to register the presence of my finger. And again, after returning home and trying it inside, the thing works fine.
So... if you're looking for a pulse-oximeter for your indoor activities (at home, inside a gym, etc), I'd say that this is a pretty good product. If you're looking for something you expect to use outside, however, this is NOT FOR YOU.
Finally, this product is made in China, which is something I didn't consider when I hit that \"Buy Now\" button.

No. Well, it finally happened: my husband was right, and I was wrong.
1 or 2 little \"baby colds\" later, half a dozen restless if not completely sleepless nights later, I sent him out to purchase this miracle tube. And miracle it is, my friends.
First of all, it's not as disgusting as I first thought. It's not like siphoning gas - the snot isn't going to fly up into your mouth. Check out the picture. The snot is collected into a tube at the baby's nose, and then you blow it back out into a nearby tissue or wipe. And unlike the infamous \"bulb syringe\", this works.
Picture this: You're up in the middle of the night because baby is snoring and grunting. He can't breathe. Again. You lay him down on the changing table and grab the bulb syringe and depress it, and stick it into his nose. It slooooowly regains its shape and sucks out a bit of snot. You depress it again. By this time your baby is screaming like he's being squashed by an elephant. The problem with the bulb thingy is that it doesn't always \"suck\" fast enough, leaving you with a screaming baby. You grab it and place the end of the tube into the baby's nose. You suck quickly. BAM! You can see what's coming out. You see your progress. Within 5 seconds, your baby's airway is clear and you pick him up to comfort him.
It's easy to clean. It's transportable. It's ready whenever you need it. It's fast-acting. This thing ROCKS.

I did this for my son (9 year old) who has asthma to clear up debris on the back by putting 6 cups (3 each side) near chest area.
The suction guns are powerful, and just two pumps I see the skin raised almost to the silver point inside the cup. Two pumps are usually enough to get results. I used this for my son who got sick often and even after getting well he would continue to have dry cough that usually drag for weeks. I used the cups 10 min each time before bed time on the back when he was at the dry cough stage. I did my own research what meridian points on the back I should place the cups. The first time I did this I saw good results. He started to cough out phlem instead of dry cough, and after one week he totally stopped coughing and there was no more restriction in breathing. You may see the skin turned red or purple (like a pepperoni) and I read that was normal. That color change was due to ""debris"" and the cups cleaned them out. From my experience, the peppeoni went away in a few days. I used the cups for 7 days and my son's cough was less and less. After 10 days I no longer need the cups. I am sure I will use it again next time he get sick.
The cups does not suck well on elbow joints, knee joints, legs, or ankles. And I do not find much use of the small size cups yet. I read that they are for face, or for babies, and I have been using the big and medium size cups. So far I only use them on the back and only need 5-6 cups, and got good results, and I am happy with them. Also after applying the cup, don't move, or they will fall out. My experience is that you definite need a second person to hold the cup and angle the gun right on top of the cup to suck. After you remove the cup, the skin may feel itchy so have some cream, lotion, or massage oil ready to rub a little bit to make you feel more comfortable.
I dropped the cups a few times on hardwood floor from about 2-3 feet high and luckily they did not break. But it is hard plastic so there is a chance it will break if you drop it on very hard surfaces.", "label": 1}

Some people use razor blades and shaving cream for the closest and smoothest shave possible. I unfortunately can/should not use a blade so electric was the right thing for me. I struggled with bald clippers for a year or two that hurt and cut my head if nicked at the wrong angle. It was never a close shave either. I tried using my face shaver on my head and that got a close shave and was convenient with cleanup but it burned my head BAD leaving burn streaks and giving me the worst pain with taking a shower right after. My head would be burning and itching for days leaving me with an awful and uncomfortable feeling.
(Head) So I did some research and voila! I stumbled upon The Bald Eagle! I read a bunch of reviews and had to go for it. After the first use my mouth dropped. This thing is INCREDIBLE. It is a nice smooth, close shave that does not hurt, does not burn and incredibly, does not leave hair clippings anywhere on your head or body. You can shave your head and not even have to hop in the shower to clean up! After using it for a month, the shave gets better and closer as I use it.
(Face & Neck) Since I was a teenager, I\u2019m 30 now, I\u2019ve struggled with Pseudofolliculitis Barbae which consists of hair being shaved on my neck, causing the sensitive skin to be irritated which results in hairs curling into my neck creating bumps. I\u2019ve used blades with sensitive gel recommended by doctors but that did nothing and still had this problem. I used my face shaver which, once again, burned and irritated my neck. I've struggled with this for years. Since trying The Bald Eagle on my face and neck, it has been a dream come true. My neck does not hurt or burn and I have very minimal bumps a couple of days after use. Such an incredible device that has changed my life forever.
To clean it is simple by putting it into a warm bowl of water right after use and turning it on for 5 seconds. All of the hair clipping are released and your shaver is clean. Amazing. Nice comfortable design with an incredibly long battery life! I now enjoy shaving my head knowing that it will be a close shave and it will not hurt upon completion.
I just wanted those who struggle with finding the best and quickest way to shave their head that there is an incredible device out there that smokes the competition.", "label": 1}

It is golden in color (not pale), the stems were thin (not thick), it smelled like the ocean (not chlorine), had no salt on them was completely dry (not moist) when received, and was crunchy but not brittle when squeezed and stretched.
I used the soaked method to keep it raw as I\u2019m not a fan of the boil method. Heating sea moss unless adding it to meals is counter productive to me. It started coming right back to life during the first rinse. After you\u2019ve rinsed the sea moss in running water, soak it in spring/distilled water this rinse it in running water again, soak it in spring/distilled water for 24-72 hrs in covered glass bowl or jar. Blend it in the same water it soaked in for the 24+ hrs to maintain the minerals released into the water by the sea moss. It gels great.
The 16oz bag yields four to five batches that went into 9x9 glass baking container with a top. I cut it into 16 pieces with one piece as one serving. It lasts my family a week and is a great deal for $35 every 5weeks. It delivers fast. The ad for the 8oz says it comes from St Lucia but the 16oz bag says it comes from Jamaica. Both locations are great to harvest sea moss.
Please keep this great quality Red Kitchen Sink and you will always have a customer in us.
I bought another brand called Mr Seamoss, in case Red\u2019s Kitchen Sink wasn\u2019t the real deal, and it was horrible. First it comes from Vietnam and not the Caribbean, even though he says he\u2019s from Trinidad. It yields no way near as much a Red\u2019s Kitchen Sink as comes moist (not dry), full of sand, salt and debris. The debris was pieces of plastic and a long strand of hair. It looks like it\u2019s starting to mold with very dark soft spots akin to mold. He has no social media that I could find to comment directly on his product which is suspicious too. We will use it as a topical only since he charges $15 in shipping we won\u2019t get back plus we\u2019d have to pay to return it to him.

BCAA stands for Branch Chain Amino Acids are known throughout the fitness world as the \u201cbuilding blocks\u201d of the body.
BCAAs can be beneficial to any fitness program. They make up a large portion of muscle mass and are important to any supplement program. Basically, there are 8 amino acids that are considered essential, meaning your body cannot manufacture them and you must get them in your diet. The rest of the amino acids are non-essential, meaning that your body can make them with proper diet.
This particular product has Leucine 3,000mg, Isoleucine 1500mg and Valine 1500mg in each scoop. This is the recommended 2:1:1 ratio of BCAAS. The bottle provides 40 of these servings. One thing about powder amino acids is they don\u2019t taste very good but you can always mix it with something if you don\u2019t like the taste. I\u2019ve taken the pill form of BCAAs for years and it\u2019s quite a bit of pills to take. For example, you would have to take roughly 2 servings of the pill form to equal one scoop of NutraFx BCAAs which makes this a very good product for those who don\u2019t like to take pills.
This product also came with an awesome shaker cup! It\u2019s probably the best one I\u2019ve ever had. It has a cone inside to help break up the protein and a container that screws into the bottom where you can store an extra serving of protein or to put extra supplements in. Pretty sturdy build also.
There are a lot of different ways to take BCAAs, but the preferred method for powders are during a workout. My supplement stack consists of a pre-workout consisting of Creatine, an energy blend that has caffeine, a \u201cpump\u201d blend that has various versions of L-Arginine and vitamins. During workout, I take BCAAs and if I\u2019m using a powder, I sip it during the workout. Post workout is always followed by a protein shake of at least 25 grams of protein with 3-5 more grams of Creatine. I always try to eat a high protein snack within an hour or so of training.
Add a good BCAA product like this one to your supplements and you will be able to do more work in the gym and build muscle faster than ever. I received a reduced price for this product in exchange for an honest review. As always, if you have any questions about this product or training in general feel free to ask!", "label": 1}

I have been taking it to a state-of-the art touchless car wash to be sure that I don't get swirl marks from dirty cloth car washes. I just used the product the day before yesterday. The directions state that I don't need to wash the vehicle. I trust only in my own judgement on that one. I don't want to grind in road debris with my towel. I went to the car wash, sprayed tar and bug remover on the front of the vehicle as always, pulled in, had the pre rinse, then had the foam soak, power wash and rinse, let their power drier blow it off, drove home and began applying the wax. My garage is a side facing garage, that I make a 90 degree turn into. I parked in the morning shade of it, while the temperature was cool. I sprayed Fukken wax on, one panel at a time. I lightly spread it around with the nappy side of the cloth then let it dry to a haze. I went on to the next panel and repeated those two steps as the first panel was drying. I flipped my cloth over to the micro fiber side and polished the first panel. I had a nice shine. Then I polished the second panel with the micro fiber side. When I completed the vehicle, there was still a bit of tar and bug type debris stuck to the front area of the truck. This was expected because the truck had never been waxed. I sprayed more wax on and lightly spread it around. I let it soak for three minutes. Then I polished it off, using a bit of elbow grease with the micro fiber side. It removed most of the persistent debris. I used the side of the cloth that was soaked with the wax and gave it more elbow grease. The debris came off. I let it dry to a haze. I polished it with the micro fiber side of the towel. I let everything stand for about fifteen minutes. Then I pulled out a clean towel and buffed the entire truck to a brilliant shine. I followed up and did the windows. This product works by following the directions, regarding application, and following up with a final buffing with a clean towel, using the micro fiber side. Remember, when you first spray it on, shake it up and just lightly spread it around so that it can soak in and lift remaining dirt or grime. Then let it dry to a haze. Then polish with the clean side of your towel or with a fresh micro fiber towel. Let it stand for a while. Then polish the whole vehicle with a clean micro fiber towel. You will be pleased with the results. I have never used Fukken wax before and it works very well.", "label": 1}

Plus, on the other side of my jaw's upper molars were getting really, really sensitive to my horrible ice chewing & sunflower seed habits--HOWEVER after taking this product (of course the product I took a picture of and attached to this review) my tooth pain and sensitivity is gone! Also, I've been cleaning my teeth with the metal dental scrapping hooked pick tool and my gums don't bleed even after poking them with this tool.
I bought the \"dentitox\" product and nothing. It did seem to dissolve any food pieces that were still stuck in my teeth but other than that I'm sticking with Steel Bite Pro out of 37 Inverness Drive East, Ste 100, Englewood, CO
So thanks to Me first for listening to the infomercial that I never listen to, but the \"ditch your dentist\" comment from these folks was like, \"yeah right whatever and die of rotten mouth, no thanks!\" BUT IM HERE TO SAY THIS STUFF WORKS! Finally an actual product that does rebuild your teeth and strengthens weak sensitive teeth. Granted I have only had to pull 2 teeth now and I'm almost 50 so this product is a little late, but well worth ANY money spent on it and I would easily spend 100 bucks to get my hands on this product. I haven't seen or noticed any side effects either, of course I read directions and always take pills with food on, in or going in my stomach at the time I take these pills. Also, note I take a chewable multivitamin every morning with my 97 year young Uncle so YES, there is something to be said about taking a daily multivitamin and it's because I don't eat a piece of fruit everyday like we are supposed to which is why the daily multivitamin.

In addition, it can be used to prevent cancer due to its antioxidant GSH or treat collapsed lungs caused by mucus blockage. There are more benefits that NAC has to offer, so if you want to know whether or not it is a good fit for you, I think you would want to read the information on Wikipedia or WebMD.
I got acetaminophen overdosed 2 months ago due to the migraine, which lasted for three days. It was a painful experience that I would never want to go through again. I definitely will always remind myself to eat before taking the medicine and follow the direction. I took the NAC for about a month and I did notice some improvement and the pain intensity started to diminish. I did feel like vomiting sometimes, but I don\u2019t know whether it is the acetaminophen or the side of effect of NAC. Still, I am glad that I received this bottle for free to do the product evaluation. I made a list of pros and cons while taking the NAC, and I hope everything I mentioned below will be helpful for your purchase decision.
Pros:
- The NAC product is made by a company that strictly follows FDA and cGMP (current Good Manufacture Produce), which ensures that the products are safe, pure, and effective. I personally would not use anything that has no FDA or cGMP label on the package.
- It is organic. According to the seller\u2019s answer to one of the question posted on Amazon, synthetic NAC will be really expensive
- NAC can be taken with or without food. Sometimes I find it is very inconvenient that I must eat before I can take pill, especially when I am in a hurry.
- Good price for 6-month supply, and it only requires you to take one pill a day (180 capsules total)
Cons:
- The smell is horrible. There wasn\u2019t a day that I didn\u2019t want to throw up when I tried to swallow it, but I understand that is how it is supposed to smell like.
- The capsule size is big and it is hard to swallow sometimes.
Overall, I think this is a good product that can be taken over a long period of time for different benefits. Even though my symptoms for acetaminophen overdose already went away, I still continue to take it every day so that I have a steady supplement of antioxidant GSH and glutathione. For a good price and an effective supplement like NAC, I would recommend it to other people.", "label": 1}

I am from a small town in northern Illinois, and have always been used to people being open minded, and for the most part, on the liberal end of the political spectrum. I moved down to southwestern Missouri about 6 years ago, and am still not used to the change of mind-set of most of the people down here. It blows my mind how closed-minded and stuck in the past some people are. Now, I can't judge anyone for who they are voting for, because well, especially being a Bernie supporter, that's kind of hypocritical of what he believes in. The freedom for people to choose. Now, when I first received this shirt in the mail, I was SO PUMPED. I put it on pretty much right away, and when I was about to leave for work, my boyfriend stopped me and asked me if I was sure I wanted to wear this shirt in to work. (Like I said, I live in a overall conservative part of the world, bible belt country, and a lot of my upper management would not approve!) Well, needless to say, I responded to my boyfriend with "I absolutely want to wear this shirt to work"... All of my co-workers are aware of my views and opinions, as many of us have had debates, (while a few are on my side!) Anyway, This shirt is fantastic, I love showing off that I am a Bernie supporter, especially where I live. It almost makes it even better to me. I ordered the navy blue colored shirt with the NOT ME US logo. Now, I read a review that said their shirt was made in china... I will say that my tag does not say China, but the Dominican Republic. While that is a little unfortunate, since Bernie is a believer in USA made product, I do have to say that I'd rather buy from the DR than china! But that's just my opinion. I received this shirt at a discount in exchange for an honest review. I do NOT give false-positive reviews. I stay very open and honest about the products I review, and have reviewed everything from clothing, to kitchen gadgets, to vitamins and supplements.

TUF SHINE is great at cleaning off these silicone coatings and leaving a clean surface to be \"dressed\". You need to also buy the Tuf Shine Brush which works perfectly with the cleaner - buy them together. To use simply spray on a dry tire , let it dwell 30 seconds and then start brushing with medium pressure working your way around the tire. I start with about 12 sprays on the tire. You notice a brown mess coming off the tire - spray it away with a hose and start again with a few less sprays of the product - brush vigorously and rinse. Repeat four or five times per tire until the mixture become white throughout the brushing - this tells you that you got the gunk off. Make sure to also rinse the brush when you rinse the tire to avoid putting the crap back onto the face of the tire. You only need to clean the sidewalls and just part of the first tread block - not all of the treads. To make sure you have enough product to get around all wheels I would apply and rinse each tire 3 times then move on, then go back to the first tire and treat it again...this way you make sure that you have enough product to do 4 to 5 applications to each tire. Go ahead and use the product up as it having a little left over does you no good. Then use a good dressing to make your tire blacker and glossier - I like CarPro Perl, easy to apply, not too greasy, and no slinging of product to your paint when you drive your car - some of the greasier products may do this. Perl is applied with a cheap foam wax applicator - throw them away when you're done. Two coats of Perl leaves a darker and glossier looking tire and will protect the tire from the suns rays and keep it from turning brown. You can then maintain once a month by spraying the tires with a very light dish soap solution in a spray bottle, scrubbing lightly with a softer brush, and then rinsing. Re-apply two coats of Perl again. Also, make sure to review Sonax Wheel Cleaner Full Effect which will clean away the iron build up on your brake rotors and calipers and rims. This will not adversly affect Perl. Use Sonax first on dry / cool rims and rotors, let turn red (tells you the brake dust has dissolved) then rinse well. Wipe down rims and apply a good rim sealer - try Poor Boys Rim cleaner - cheap and it works well and lasts. Then finish off by cleaning the tires and applying Perl. Your \"ride\" will look great.

I have a slight toe issue, some missing cartilage on my large toe which causes it to swell whenever I walk for a long time (2+ hours), run, or play tennis. I needed a warm tub that keeps water warm and where I can salt a foot bath. For the price, this works pretty well. Water never spills out of it. There is an easy hole in the top front to be able to easily pour out water. It feels solidly made and like it will last a long time, so far I have had it a few months and am happy with it. I would not say it is the best footbath, but for a middle price, you should be pretty happy with how it works. The Brookstone version of a foot salon is higher quality, but double the price, and this one is just fine. The biggest difference between the Brookstone one and this one is that the Brookstone one heats up a lot faster and better. However.. workarounds to save you about $50...
If the water is already hot, it will keep it warm for you. So just start out with hot water and you're golden. Water is still hot after an hour of use as long as heat setting is put on as soon as you put the hot water in.
If the water is cold and you are heating it.. it will take 40-50 mins to heat it up. Probably don't reuse the water and just start with hot, or if you really want to reuse then take some boiling water and carefully mix it into the cold water first to get it started.
Weird thing-- can't heat it without the bubbles or the vibrating setting (one or both have to be on). Also, the 3 little attachments cause SUCH a rattle. If you just take those out, use vibration with heat mode, you're golden and you can barely hear it. You marginally may need to turn up the sound of a TV or game but not by much. I don't know why they made a place to hold the 3 attachment pieces if it was going to make it absurdly annoyingly loud.
I am not sure if the little spiky roller are any good, they don't really help me at all. Can't say those are massagers, just spiky things. If I could change something, I would ask for the heat setting to be better and for the heat to be able to be on without the bubbles or vibration mode. All I really wanted was the heat setting.

The silicone is soft, but firm enough to provide pleasure. The amount of settings is the real kicker with this product. You can utilize it with vibration, with the stroke mechanism, or as a combo. Regardless, the user can pick and choose what is best for them. The ribs on the inside are very satisfying, which definitely add to the whole package. The only complaint is that the silicone is difficult to clean. The sleeve is easy to remove once you twist off the top, however, there is a solid plastic insert that is integral to the sleeve itself to provide stability during the stroke mechanism. This make is such that it is not possible to easily turn the sleeve inside out for cleaning, just a forewarning.
Pleasure: This toy was quite enjoyable. It was very intense when I originally recognized its capacity. There are multiple different stroke settings and vibration settings as well as intensities, so you can dive into what feels best. I was not expecting to have so much packed into one toy. The battery life is actually quite good with this toy. This toy is quite large and relatively heavy, so it is necessary to hold the toy or wedge it into a cushion to be able to utilize it properly.
Quality: Since I am just reviewing this after a couple uses, the quality of the material is solid and the toy seems to be built well for all of the different capabilities it has. The sleeve material is well built and the solid plastic insert allows the toy to have more resiliency with the amount of strokes for a session!
Packaging: The packaging for this toy is very discreet. It comes shrink wrapped in a nice black box and is well packed such that it is delivered to the owner safely. In the box, you receive the toy, an instruction manual, lube and a charging cable!
Value: For the listed $74.69, this toy is definitely on the higher end of most toys. However, there are many toys out there that do similar roles for the same price, but do not have any stroking nor vibration mechanisms. As such, I believe this is a pretty high quality toy for the capacities it has, and is similarly priced to more stationary toys on the market.

Come with instruction but ladies YouTube has SO many educational DIY videos. This stuff is amazing balls as long as you apply the product right. I seen some negative comments about it but I think it's because they didn't do their research and weren't applying the product correctly. The way I went about it was first making sure my eyelashes were super clean. I preferred to use the pink silicone so I got the glue it came with and glued the back of the silicone left it on for about 35 to 45 seconds making sure it became tacky so it stays on the eyelid during the procedure. Once I lined it close to the eye lid on both eyes I put glue on the silicone where the actual eyelashes get glued on and with my y-comb(bought separately) I brushed back the eyelashes. After all eyelashes where glued back I proceeded with bottle A and used one of the green spoolies with the cotton on top to apply it. The way I learned that you apply it is is by not coving all the lashes with it completely but mostly by the root. I left that on for about 13 min and then wiped it off with a Cotton swap from root to top. When I did that for each eye I got a clean cotton swap dipped it in jar c and wiped each eye from root to top. After I got jar B and applied it the same way as jar A on both eyes I let it sit for about 10 min and after 10 min i removed it from both eyes with clean cotton swabs from root to top
Then again with a new cotton swap I dipped in jar C and when went over them again from root to top. Once that was done I got a new cotton swap and
Dipped into jar D and proceeded
To removed the eyelashes from silicone pads by rubbing the cotton swap gently side to side until they lift. I used that same cotton swap to remove the actual silicone pad from the skin. When both pads are removed you will find that your lashes and eyelid have glue on them. I used coconut oil to remove the excess glue and one of the black mascara brush provided In the kit to brush the eyelashes out. The eyelashes may look partially clumped together but this is normal but make sure not to wet them within the first 24 hours but once you do wet them after that time the eyelashes will separate. As far as clean up I used the coconut oil
The clean the silicone pad and of course the cotton swaps and green spoolies where disposed of . Attached is my final results", "label": 1}

So, I use a noise generator to sleep every night. Right now, I have an older gen 4 iPad running a noise gen app (in the background with a full screen clock app in the foreground, since it's useful). This iPad is then plugged into a small sound system via the headphone jack so it sounds better then coming out the tiny iPad speakers.
I was eager to give the Renpho Noise Machine a go, since I know my current solution's days are numbered (the apps are starting to crash regularly and can't update anymore due to how old the device is, etc).
Hence the Renpho device. And it works fine. Up to a point.
The first thing I noticed is that while you can have a single color and adjust the brightness to whatever level you like which is good, if you turn on color cycling it jumps back to full brightness and you can't adjust the brightness in that mode. If you try to, it switches back to single color mode. So, that's a bummer as I like to have my glowy things always cycling through their colors, but don't want to have this thing searing my retinas every night.
The next issue I found is when trying to plug in my sound system to the headphone jack of the Renpho. The sound level coming out of the device is maybe 30-40% the volume of the iPad's headphone output. Even with the Renpho noise gen at max volume and the stereo at max volume (25 according to the stereo's display), it's not even half as loud as my iPad's headphone output at 100% and stereo at med volume (15 on the stereo's display, for reference). That's a non-trivial difference, and kinda makes it unusable for that specific use case. Granted it's a very specific use case most people won't care about, but still...
I could always use the built in speaker, but like all tiny speakers the sound is tinny and lacks the depth of a proper sound system. I really like to hear the boom of those thunderstorms, ya know?
I'm hopeful that at least the lighting issue can be fixed via a firmware update, but ideally both could, depending on how they implemented the headphone interface. So, if things change, I'll update the review to reflect it.
Note:
Updated to 4 stars since I was contacted by the makers saying they would take my critiques under advisement. So, that's a star just for response time. And if they actually release some kind of firmware update to fix any of my issues, that's star number 5...

I'm sceptical of American infomercials in general (sorry, US readers -- I just find them overly enthused) but have been supplementing for years for chronic fatigue and concentration issues, so I tried out a couple of trial packs of this. I'm now ordering a canister of it.
There is something in this that helps my symptoms somewhat, but I don't know what it is. I have tried most supplements out there, and prefer liquids, as capsules and powders don't tend to work for me. I have paid more in the past for superfood green powders. BTT is expensive, so if you don't like the sound of it, Source of Life Gold by Nature's Plus would be my recommendation -- it gave me a short-term energy boost and gave my skin a nice glow. I'm just throwing that out there, as SOLG and BTT are the only supplements I've tried that have given me an effect.
BTT comes in a granulated form that dissolves in water (sometimes it can clump slightly though when mixing, and bits will need a good stir). It is sweet enough to drink in water, but it also tastes good in orange juice.
In terms of the ingredients, I don't see a lot in BTT that you can't get from other supplements, but I do know the effect I get from it isn't placebo, as most multivitamins do nothing for me. I also know of the criticisms made of BTT in terms of trace metals -- I am not a doctor or a nutritionist, so I don't know enough to comment. I am very sceptical of claims made that trace amounts of substances such as arsenic are good or even necessary for health. I think that the manufacturer should back up claims of necessity with peer-reviewed evidence. Some of the feedback online does seem to be distributor hyperbole -- treat this as a good multivitamin/multimineral, and try to eliminate gluten from your diet if you're sensitive, but don't expect miracles.
For me personally, this is a multivitamin that has a pretty strong effect. I'll update my review in another month once I've gone through a full canister. In short, it's not miraculous, but it is pretty good. If you can try a trial pack or two (five sachets apiece) before splurging on a canister, I would try that beforehand.", "label": 1}

This is my 7th purchase from this company and I haven't had any complaints. I bought this bag because it had the top flip clip thats can be used in my car. In my last picture I'm pointing it out. If you take that over your headrest and put the clip through the middle of the two bars, then tighten it will hold it perfectly against your seat.Perfect for traveling. I'd recommend also getting the bags as well. My set up is the main zip that lays flat has all my trauma gear. The second zip has my BP cuff, stethoscope, splints, wraps. The smaller zip were the velcro is perfect for storing gloves. The smaller molle zip has my pen lights, extra shears(2), and extra pads and rolls so I don't have to open the main compartment., also have my 2 of the folling pens, permanent markers, and note pads. The bags I call my fast bags, the blue one has all my burn gels, ice packs, and burn bandages. The yellow one is my ouch pouch basic first aid kit with Aspirin for hose headaches and MIs, also have band aids, wound cleaners, and glucose. The red bag has my cat tourniquets(3) ,Israeli bandages(2), bleed stop spray(1) and guazes(4), krinkle guaze(1), and chest seals (3). My green bag is all my airway, it has OPAs (6), NPAs(6), and has 02 tubing. I DO NOT carry O2 with me but when in traveling I know that the EMS does carry so I also have a Non rebreather mask Regular O2 mask and nasal cannula.
****** Sone of the items I listed came from my other pack I have I do believe that was refill kit R. But from all my other purchases I have had all the following refill kits
Kit R,J,X,P,L,B, and this kit from this purchase. I only have my three bags one for the car, my household one. And now a tactical bag that's smaller and less a pain to carry. I hope this review helped someone make this purchase or inspired you to follow this company and find a fit for you. I would like to say that I am not affiliated with this company in any way only as a satisfied customer and the main reason I keep purchasing from them.", "label": 1}

I wondered what in the world it was and after I read a few reviews, I knew I wanted it! I read several reviews on the Costco website and tried to compare best as I could to the other GoWear Fit System by reading different internet reviews.
I think each item has as many positive as it does \"doesn't work\" reviews so I was confused which item to purchase so I decided to buy both.
Costco sent the Bodybugg in 2 days. I'm still waiting on Amazon's GoWearFit product so I can only review this Bodybugg. That said,the packaging was very simple to remove the device and the start up directions very straight-forward. It took about 10 minutes for me to find the usb port, hint! the black body snaps out of the arm band! And once I found the usb port, it took another hour or so to set up my profile. The website was easy enough to navigate for set up and my Bodybugg worked fine.
It takes 3 hours to fully charge. I love popping over to the computer and doing a quick synch to see where I am at the moment. This whole process takes about 3 minutes. I am able to record my food intake. The caloric intake is limited in that it is divided into a 6 meals, so if I have had my 6 meals, but decide to have a glass of milk before bed, I have to go back in and edit my 6th meal to add that milk. This is a slight extra step beyond the weightwatcher's website, but not a dealbreaker.
I have only done one workout while wearing this and it was spinning. I have read that the BB does not do a great job of tracking burned calories for cyclists, but I can't comment on that just yet.
There is a coaching session that comes with this item and my \"coach\" has been very diligent in trying to contact me to set up a time for us to have our 45 minute phone chat. I think I'd like to wear this for another few days before I chat with her so as to get to figure it out best I can on my own and then ask questions about things I don't understand.
I have not had any skin irritations and it is not a bother at all under long-sleeved shirts.
I have only used this for two days so it's silly to comment on my 2 pound weight loss, but I am optimistic that this is going to be a wonderful tool to take away that emotional aspect to eating. It really reduces weight-loss to a more clinical level of calories in vs. calories burned and I am hoping that will help me fight different cravings and binges!
Hope this helps!", "label": 1}

I won\u2019t go into all the details here except to say I\u2019ve tried many modalities, all kinds of supplements and herbs, and a great deal of mental, emotional and spiritual prescriptions. My recent epiphany is that the fundamental component of my ill health and constitutional weakness is actually rooted in a long term deficiency of magnesium. I learned this by my own trial and error and by finding something that made a difference in such a big way on so many levels that I cannot deny its significance.
That \u201cSomething\u201d is ReMag.
From the moment I started taking it my most dominant symptoms began to abate, my vital energy increased and I became more hopeful about the prospects of my health.
WE ARE ALL MAGNESIUM DEFICIENT - 80% of the population is! Please do yourself a favor and make yourself available to Dr. Dean\u2019s huge database of content. She is truly a Doctor who cares and offers straightforward solutions:
-Re-mineralize and strengthen the body.
-Then use that strength towards natural detoxification as you continue to build.
Her content offers the most direct GPS towards health that I have experienced, and as I\u2019ve stated, I\u2019ve tried many routes. Her freely offered knowledge and support are the keys...and her products are the ignition. Tune into her radio show, subscribe to her emails and order and get started on ReMag.
Initially I only went to her site for information and was treating myself with various self-directed forms of magnesium. This convinced me of the efficacy of magnesium therapy. Because her information and approach was so solid and given so generously I decided I had to try ReMag to see for myself. Within a week I was so happy with the results that I added ReMyte and Re-Aline to my care. That was six weeks ago and now I am on her Total Body Reset (all products), excluding the protein powder (I don\u2019t eat whey).
I don\u2019t generally make reviews because I consider them a karmic responsibility and I wouldn\u2019t want anyone to ever be harmed by something I encouraged. But, I am so certain of the the necessity of:
-treating magnesium deficiency,
-realizing its universality as a problem, and
-the superiority of ReMag, as the first solution
...that I would suffer from Karmic selfishness if I were not to share.
We all deserve to feel the best we can and to realize that our bodies have the innate intelligence of the Divine for proper restoration and balance. If we give our bodies the intended building blocks (minerals) to be strong resilient plants while here on our mother earth, we can contribute the best that we have to offer this life.
I am very grateful to Dr. Dean and her team for these products and their continuing support.
May we all be free from disease of body, mind and spirit.

I use it as a post-workout recovery supplement. Decided to give it a try after investigating the product from various sources such as Bodybuilding.com. The premise behind this product is that it is suppose to help rapidly restore the body's skeletal muscle glycogen levels that were depleted during vigorous exercise. Per the advertisement, it can also be used pre and intra workout but I find with a proper diet I can push hard in the weight room without it. I would rather use something like C4 or Jacked3D as a pre-workout. So what did I think?
I was a little concerned at first about bloating. After mixing it per the instructions and adding a scoop of BSN Clean Whey, this was a lot of liquid to consume (somewhere around 28 oz.) I am happy to report that my fear was unfounded and the claim of no bloating is true. I can also report that I did not experience any gas as reported by a few others. However, as with any other product, your results will most likely vary from mine. My body sucked it right in and my stomach fullness was gone in minutes. Almost all of it was pulled directly into my muscles and I experienced less post-workout fatigue immediately and the following day. So far I give it a thumbs up.
I found the product mixes well with water (I use a shaker cup). It does froth up which gives the appearance of there being more liquid than there actually is. If you follow the instructions, mixing should not be an issue. I use the tropical fruit flavor. The taste is tolerable which is a nice way of saying I would not drink it by choice but it is worth it for the benefits. This is of course personal preference and you might love or completely hate the flavor, texture, etc.. Stay Strong and Fight On.
Update 1: So...after about a month I can say I am sold on Vitargo and use it religiously three times a week post workout. All else being equal in my diet and workouts, I am seeing a noticeable improvement in my physique. They do recommend that you take a second serving after intense exercise of over 1.5 hours. I have not tried that yet but might as my recovery time has slowed down slightly. In the end, I think if you are serious into weight training and gaining muscularity you should consider adding this to your stack. If your goal is just to stay fit you could probably find better places to spend your money.", "label": 1}

\"1900 - 1910 Invented and perfected the steel alkaline storage battery and made it a commercial success.\"
I wonder if the other reviewer even owed one of these rechargers. I have owned and used one for 6 months and I am buying another. Yes, some cells leak on recharging. As other writers have mentioned, the batteries that leaked were Rayovacs. I also had new, never regenerated, Rayovacs leak in my equipment so I don't use them anymore. I have had no trouble with others so far. I also drastically cut down on my battery bill.
Originally, I did measure the battery voltage before and after regenerating. I have had batteries as low as 0.81 volts regenerate to 1.6 volts. Yes, that is higher than the 1.5 volts they measure when they are new but that is what my voltmeters read, They work fine. I use them in LED flashlights, portable CD players, and my grandson regenerates the same battery for his cheap MP3 player. He has been using the same battery for over a month. I have one set of three in an LED flashlight that I left on for a week. I regenerated them and they are back in the flashlight and still working after several weeks. NOTE: LED flashlights will not drain the batteries to zero as an standard bulb will. A standard flashlight bulb might kill the batteries. I don't know. I don't use standard bulbs any more.
Actually, any application that takes the battery voltage to almost zero such as an R/C car, a toy, or a standard flashlight bulb, may kill a battery permanently. My electronics and LED lights all shut down before the battery is fully drained so the batteries have a better chance of recovering.
If you are concerned about Alkaline battery leakage (read the Wikipedia entry on them to see what it looks like), cut a small piece of plastic wrap and line the regenerator chamber leaving just the contacts exposed. If a battery leaks, you can contain it and throw it out before it damages your unit.
Considering that the reviewer's first \"Fact Check\" was wrong, and that my experiences have been completely different than the reviewer's opinions, you might want to be skeptical.
Remember, a completely depleted (0.8 volts or less) battery may take 3 days to regenerate but my grandson has found that he can \"top\" his off overnight if it has had light use. Also, batteries, even new ones, can leak, it is wise to take precautions.", "label": 1}

Decided that the "Aria" scale would be the perfect companion to track all of my progress. Through Fitbit's website there was a 6-8 week back order. Decided to shop Amazon.com and I was pleasantly surprised to see several sellers with the item I wanted in stock and about $25 cheaper than what Fitbit had it for. It was a no brainer.
The item arrived neatly and professionally packaged. Relatively easy to set up and I had it working and synced within 10 minutes or so of opening the package. I was really pleased and the product appeared to be well put together. After using the product for 3 days I went out of town for 5 days on business and came back, got on the scale and got a repeated error message. I spent 2 days trying to trouble shoot the issue using Fitbit's online forums and contacting customer support. Based on what I can see on the forums/community help page at Fitbit.com this is a fairly common error and there are many frustrated users. It seems that many, too many in my opinion, were experiencing this malfunction for a scale of this price.
After none of the online recommendations seemed to help, I contacted Fitbit's customer service folks who are located in Guatemala. While both representatives were extremely nice and very helpful in the end, English was a secondary language, and the delay in the phone lines did make it somewhat difficult to understand. The Fitbit representative stood by the product though. They told me it must be an internal hardware error and that if for any reason the seller through Amazon.com would not take it back (I don't know why they wouldn't) they would take the product back and ship me a new one, albeit, with a 6-8 week back order as mentioned previously.
I have requested a replacement and not a refund. I really want to use the Charge and the Aria together for maximum effectiveness, but after my own experiences and reading all the others with similar issues, I fear that this is not an anomaly and may be an inherent problem. I'm willing to give it one more try. Kudos to Fitbit for standing by their product regardless. Quality appearance and feel, but ultimately it was defective and I'm not alone. Two stars for now.

Something about the words \"very strong stimulants\" got my immediate and undivided attention. To be perfectly fair, my first experience with this was not exactly a fair one as I had drunk a Monster before coming into work. Something about ingesting 480mg of caffeine seemed like a great idea at the time. I'll try to do a timeline as best I can remember.
T-00:00 - I open Spike Shooter and take a sip. It actually tastes pretty good. I can't remember what it tastes like now because that feels like a lifetime ago but I remember it being pleasant.

Plain and simple, suction cups generally never work on anything correctly. That was a given, I expected that. Don't get me wrong, if the suction cups worked it would probably be even better.
But, I was amazed at how powerful that pump was. Someone mentioned that if they put the connector part down by their feet the bubbles did not reach their back, or vise versa. So I tried it first coming from my feet. Yes the mat floats all over. But, the issue with the bubbles not reaching all the way through is the positioning of the connector, if the tube is pointed one way the bubbles will only go so far, but if moved a different way it will shoot bubbles all through the mat. It's all about the positioning. I then switched the mat to have the connector by my head. Same thing, if positioned differently the results are different. Although some people may not like that, I found it relaxing. I was able to manipulate the mat with me feet or back or knees to have the bubbles shoot out in one local area, or flowing perfectly through the entire mat. I have bad knees and bad back, and if I let the mat float up against my knees most the bubbles came full force out where my knees were. That felt great on them. I did the same to my back. This mat is all about positioning it correctly for what you want out of it.
As some said, the pump is loud. But, what pump isn't? If your in a hot tub, is that not loud? If your in a jet bathtub, is that not loud? I have a tiny bathroom, so of course it was decently loud. If it bothers you, put in some ear plugs or maybe some noise canceling head phones. Either way it was relaxing.
Now it's supposed to heat your water to help maintain the temperature. I can't say it did that. But it could have, I really don't know. My baths are already hot, and not to mention I have the window open (and it's 30 degrees out), so that could affect that part, I can't really say.
I did read someone say it smelled funny when it arrived. It's plastic, most every new thing that is plastic smells at first. But goes away.
When I bought the mat, I knew it wouldn't stick to the bottom, I knew that it had a pump which is going to make noise. But honestly, it was well worth it. It was relaxing, kind of fun just to manipulate it to bubble more in one spot than another. Made me feel great and relaxed. I would recommend it.

This is a direct to Japan version of this movie, with no English track or titles. Fortunately there is an option for English subtitles. And for me, that's really enough. This is a well done movie and now that I look at it, one of the best from the Heisei Godzilla series. It has great elements of classic sci-fi as well as a very sincere feel, similar to the origional 1954 Gojira. The scientist father character is compelling with his duel wreckless and wise natures. He's a character who learns from his mistakes, and actually lives long enough to pass this wisdom to others. His is a great, tragic character arc. This is the first movie to use Godzilla's standard Heisei look, and I think it's pulled off quite well here. He's a slow, lumbering character, but the point is, it doesn't matter how slow he is or if you can spot him. Because you can't stop him! Te close ups of his face are fantastic. I really like the detail on the fleshy tongue. And Biolante is one of the great classic, tragic monsters. She's dangerious, deadly, devious, but has the trapped soul of a lovely girl.
As for the DVD itelf, it's pretty basic. There are vew special fetures or options, but as this is the only official DVD release for this film, that automatically makes it the best. The video quality is somewhat lacking too, but nothing you're not used to if you grew up watching these movies on TV as a kid. But I can see this being somewhat of a dissapointment for many, as there is no English dub. Again, that's fine by me, but it is a little harder trying to watch this with friends who refuse to watch a movie with subtitles. But to be honest, the 80s/90s series had some pretty weak English voice talent, and hearing the origional actors is kind of nice. Also there's a bonus special feature at the end, after credits. It's about a 40 minute behind the scenes spot, that shows quite a bit of detail on making the film. This is a rare thing for 80s films in general, so it's kind of nice. Again, it's a little tough going with no English to stand on, but the behind the scenes visuals themselves are nice! I still with whatever studio holds the American distribution rights would hurry up and for this thing over already!

Ask any professional or go to any other web sites of reputed supplier of 100% pure organic essential oils, first thing they will advise you is do not use neat - always dilute - recommendation 1.5% to 2% oil for message and 5% concentration and (under certain circumstances 10%). for tropical application and they warn and also knowledgeable people, do not take internally unless prescribed by professional. These essential oils are very complicated mixture of natural biochemicals so your body is also. Once you take essential oils internally for a long time, THE BIOCHEMICAL FUNCTIONS OF YOUR BODY GETS DEPENDENT ON IT. If you stop taking, your body's function will miss it and get crippled. Now you go to Young living web site. They ask you to apply neat and ask you to take neat in a capsule 3 or 4 types a day. This may help your body or may not but your body's biological function is getting dependent on it and the consumption of their oil will increase. They are systematically brainwashing consumers and looting them
Now Ningxia Red contains 5 to 6 essential oils- so you know what will happen if you take for a long time. Better take fresh juices of all the berry's and fruits and drink it. Mix other vitamins or other ingredients(consult your doctor or pharmacist)if you wish. You save money as well as improve your health. Of course there would not be psychological benefits of repeated good, good, excellent , marvelous, magical hype repeated by producer and their distributors.
You should always consult medical professional if you ever want to consume essential oils internally for what so ever reason for a long time. My advice \"trust Young Living with respect to everything but your money and health\"", "label": 0}

Please don't listen to these people who are stating their 'opinions' that this has the same nutrition info as a snickers bar! It does not! Being a scientist and a bariatric patient I have to be very careful what I eat and the means to monitor intake properly. So when my surgeon told me I needed to increase my protein I immediately thought of the Tiger Milk Protein Rich Bars that I grew up with. I too was taken back by the claims that these are just candy bars, but don't be fooled by false statements. After doing the research I found that the reviewers who claimed this couldn't be further from the truth.
Snickers Bar: 2oz size: 271 Calories; 14g Fat; 5g Sat. Fat; 7mg Cholesterol; 140mg Sodium; 0mg Potassium; 35g Total Carbs; 1g Fiber; 29g Sugars; 4g Protein; 2% Vit. A; 0% Vit. C; 5% Calcium; 2% Iron
Where as a comparible King Size Tiger Milk Bar; approx. 2oz size: 220 Calories; 8g Fat; 3g Sat. Fat; 0mg Cholesterol; 95mg Sodium; 230mg Potassium; 28g Total Carbs; 2g Fiber; 21g Sugars; 9g Protein; 25% Vit. A; 15% Vit. C; 25% Calcium; 30% Iron.
True that the sugar for these bars is a bit high. However, it is still less than a candy bar and has almost half the fat, twice the fiber, and over twice the protein of the snikers bar. Not to mention it is considerably higher in potassium, vitamins A & C, Calcium, and Iron. HENCE IT IS A NUTRITION BAR. Also please take into account that the King Size version is more than I could or should eat. The actual 1.23oz original size is better formulated for nutrition (140 calories; 5g fat; 2g sat. fat; 60mg sodium; 140mg potassium; 18g carbs; 1g fiber; 14g sugars; 6g protein)which just further proves the point (not to mention that is the actual product we are reviewing here) that it is no where near the sugar and fat intake of a candy bar.
I hope my ranting has better informed those who are looking for a good tasting nutrition bar. Personally, I would recommend this to anyone who needs to get more protein in their diet ... and actually do.", "label": 1}

I thought my girlfriend was at about 135, but on the scale, she weighed in at around 200. After I fat shamed her, which led to a screaming argument, our relationship ended and--as a result of the fight--we got kicked out of our apartment and fired from my job (there was a lot of throwing and breaking things and crying on both our parts, as well as incriminating video of the altercation that led to my termination).
After a few days of living on the streets, now without a job, girlfriend, or home, I came to a startling realization: what if the scale had just been off? Impossible, I thought. It said it right there...high accuracy digital bathroom scale. I definitely weigh almost 300 pounds, and I was dating a girl who had been lying to me all along by around 70 pounds! I felt like such a fool to have been duped. Yet, the doubt still kept creeping in...what if it was wrong? There was only one way to know.
I went to a drugstore where they had a scale where you could test your height, weight, blood pressure, and all that stuff. I got on the scale and waited....for what seemed like an eternity. When the digital display finally stopped moving, it read: 223. TWO TWENTY-THREE! No, that can't be right. After all, the scale I purchased said 'high accuracy.' I mean, if it had just been called 'Ballpark Digital Bathroom Scale' or 'Drunk Guesstimate Digital Bathroom Scale,' I wouldn't have let it get to me. It said High Accuracy. Not just moderate accuracy. HIGH Accuracy.
I went to another store....223. Another: 224. ANOTHER:.........223! Holy Jesus, I've made a terrible mistake!
My girlfriend of 4 years still won't speak to me--too much damage had been done, and too many hurtful things were said that fateful day. My landlord won't let me explain the situation to him. My work heard all about the outburst and won't offer any sympathy.
If you want to lose everything you hold dear to you....go ahead. Buy the scale.

I bought it for me, frankly not expecting to like it nearly as much as I do. I was really only looking for an eye mask that would stay put overnight, through tossing and turning, without shifting or feeling tight. I was a bit worried about the pillow aspect of this product, but, desperate for a good night's sleep ( am in a certain amount of pain whenever I am lying down or sitting, the after-effect of multiple spinal fractures from a nasty car wreck years ago) I decided to order one.
What a great decision: this mask/pillow blocks out all light completely, and is so soft and gentle that it's immediately soothing. I am now getting to sleep more quickly than I have in years, and wake with no neck pains or headache. I was a bit worried that the wrap-around-the-head styling would make it uncomfortable for use in bed with a pillow, thinking that it would probably tilt my neck too much by lifting my head off the pillow, but not a bit so.
This is simply a terrific product! I've used many different brands and styles of eye masks over the last 5 years, but they either slide down on my face, baring my eyes, or slide up and off my head, when I turn over in bed. The only way to keep the others on is to make the band(s) so tight that they are uncomfortable--but even then, they still shift around and some have even gotten caught in my hair. This one stays put without any noticeable pressure on either my face, eyelids, or back of the skull. Don't know how it works so well, but it works. And talk about soft and cuddly!
Unexpected bonus: I live in the countryside, in a very quiet location, but if ambient noise in an issue for anyone, this design covers the ears so softly and totally that any such noise would fade away. I had company in the guest rooms on the same floor as my mine over Christmas, and I didn't hear anything! (Last year I heard various noises from these couples in the same guestrooms: low-volume TV chatter, one of their dogs coming and going, at least 2 people snoring, and various dressing/bathing sounds early in the morning.)
I am immediately ordering 2 more Wrap-a-Naps, to send to my husband and my brother, as gifts. They both travel worldwide, almost continually, and have the usual hotel-based issues with getting to sleep: too much light, too many strange pillows and varied mattresses, and noise of all sorts. They will love these! (I am going to be quite popular. Thank you, Wrap-a-Nap!)", "label": 1}

The manufacture date (not to be confused with a \"sell-by date\") of all three containers indicated that the product was 196-days-old upon arrival. This is more than half the 365-day shelf life of a typical consumable product. Since I already planned to fully consume all of this product within less than 169 days (365 days of assumed freshness - 196 already aged upon arrival = 169 days of assumed freshness remaining), this excessive age upon arrival was not actually a problem for me. I am mentioning it only as an objective observation. The false advertising about product volume is mildly concerning. Each container contains 3.984 ounces (not 4.0) = 112.95 grams of product. The complementary \"scoop\" included inside each container measures 5.0 cubic centimeters (cc) dry = 5.0 milliliters (ml) dry = 1.0 teaspoon (tsp) dry = 4.26 grams (g) dry. One \"scoop\" is falsely advertised as 3.765 grams, which would neatly equal 30 days of supply, if it were actually true (112.95 grams/container \u00f7 3.765 grams/day = 30 days/container, as FALSELY advertised). Assuming I use exactly one level \"scoop\" per day, I will truly get 26.51 (not 30) \"scoops\" (i.e., days) per container. This is 3.49 \"scoops\" (i.e., days) less than the 30 \"scoops\" falsely advertised, but it is close enough for my needs. With 26.51 days of product in each container \u2022 3 containers, I will have enough product for 79.53 (not 90) days total. 90 days falsely advertised - 79.53 days of actual product = 10.47 days short of the falsely advertised amount. Again, this 10.47-day shortage is acceptable by my very forgiving and tolerant standards. Although the blatant fakery of product measurements is not necessarily a deal-breaker for me, it would be helpful if the product measurements advertised were to actually be congruent with reality. At this very high (but well worth every penny) price-point, many other consumers might not be as forgiving as I am. The product itself is worthy of five stars! The obvious lack of truth-in-advertising regarding product measurements is worth removing one star. Thus, I gave four stars overall.", "label": 1}

I have a 5.5 gallon tank with 7 fish. 3 guppies, 1 adult swordtail, and 3 juvinile swordtails. They are going to be moved to a 15 gallon tank this weekend hopefully with their trapdoor snail friend.
Just 3 days ago I noticed camallanus worms from my smallest guppy. He had been skittish more then usual but I thought that may be due to the juvinile swordtails being about his size and more active then as fry. I noticed the worms later in the evening and acted quick to do a water change and gravel vaccum of the tank as well as changing the filter. The sick guppy hadn't eaten anything for 3 days nor has he had bowel movements. Pretty soon 2 of my other fish showed worms, a medium guppy, and a juvenile swordtail. Luckily they were both still eating even by today.
So by following another review I did 5ml per gallon of medicine after disolving it in 1/2 cup of water. So about 25ml for my tank. Before adding the medicine, I did to a water change of about 50% to also vaccum up old feces so I can monitor the water condition before and after putting the medicine in. The two more infected fish who hadn't had bowel movements FINALY had some a few hours after I put the medication in. The worms are still visible but I can see some in the droppings as well meaning that they are being pushed along through the fish. The small guppy also has his appetite returning and is returning to swimming around the tank with his guppy friends. My juvinile is having more active bowel movements like before for a fry and is acting energetic again. Before I put the medicine in, I did remove my snail and put him in a seperate containment away from the fish and medicine so that he would be safe.
Make sure to remove your carbon filter when administering the medication or it'll all get sucked up into the filter. And remove any shrimp, crabs, or snails from the tank. Don't overdose the tank but also don't underdose. Thank you to the kind fellows who figured out the ratio as it seems to be working out in my tank.

I haven't saw any awful symptoms at all from this item and that is stating a great deal since I have a tendency to be exceptionally delicate with regards to things I ingest or put topically on my skin.

I consumed 3.05g of the soap in one session using a large 25mm Rein Dachs Silbespitz brush, for net cost 2.64% of net product for 1 lathering! If lather can get much more costly per use, I doubt I've met it, and I've got a hard milled Creed Vetiver soap. Hopefully less extravagant brushes do not burn through 3.05g/use and I'll try to curtail the burn rate...[UPDATE 02.05.2019; have used 4x w/ 'Reine Borste' (= small German 19.5mm boar brush) aiming for frugality. Consumed in 4 sessions 1.09 grams (= $0.23 based on price paid), 1.51g (= $0.32), 1.80g (= $0.38), & 2.50g (= $0.53)...over five uses 8.7% of the net product was used, or roughly 57 sessions in the tub...wow!]
The oud fragrance has depth and amplitude and is for my nose to the muskier side of the oud spectrum; there's some black pepper and patchouli with strong arriving tones of oud, sandalwood, and amber.
This soap makes it a cinch to get rich stable lather. Wetness is very good indeed; not world-beating, but still excellent. Volume's not on par with some old English creams (especially the Vulfix) but those are loaded with the 'bad stuff' to make them do that trick, this stuff eschews stabilizers/parabens. Also this WK does have lanolin, which usually sets me alight, and I could feel no signature lanolin tinge...poison's all about the dosage and all of that.
Slickness cannot compete Bourbonnaise but it is still quite slick indeed and slicker than pretty much any shaving cream with water. And of course it is easy to use, so that's a huge plus.
Cushioning is spectacular.
Soap's absolutely loaded in heavy fats to produce richness and post-shave euphoria, and it delivers. It does not make moisture that I feel 'within rather than upon me' as the Ziegen Bart, but the ease of use and high fragrance quotient will make up for that for many if not most. Due to all the heavy fats it is simply not possible to have a poor face feel unless you've an allergic issue (fragrance oils, donkey milk, etc).
A happy coda; over an hour later, the powerful oud scent of the shaving soap can still be detected by my nose!", "label": 1}

After researching several that are available, I decided to try this one because of the features available and the fact that I can change the bulb myself (I had read in reviews of other brands that the bulbs burn out quickly and then people have trouble getting it repaired). I've had this alarm clock for a little more than a month, and while it's not perfect, it's very very nice.
Here's what I like about it: I like being able to set the brightness of the light, but it did take a little trial and error to figure out the best setting for me. It's nice to be able to set so many features, like how loud the volume will be, which nature sound to wake up to, and to be able to have preset radio stations to choose from. After some time, I got comfortable with how to change the settings (it did take a little practice, though), and I learned that you don't have to step through every option just to change the alarm time. After choosing the alarm time, just hit the \"mode\" button 2 or 3 more times to get out of the \"change settings\" mode. I also like how not only does the light gradually get brighter before your set alarm time, but the volume also starts quietly and gradually increases to the selected volume.
What I don't like (these are admittedly picky, but I feel they're worth mentioning): I wish I had more options for how long before my alarm time the light begins getting brighter. The only option is 15 minutes. It seems sufficient, and isn't a big deal, but more options would be nice. Also, I like having the screen illuminated all the time, but it seems that if you use the dimming feature when going to sleep, it will turn that screen off. Since I don't usually have trouble falling asleep, I just don't use that feature so that the screen will stay illuminated.
After looking at the features that the other \"sunrise\" alarm clocks have, it seems like this one has the most features for the money. I don't think I've had it long enough to know if I really feel more rested when I wake up, but regardless, it's so nice to wake up already used to the light and to wake up gradually rather than by the sudden beeping of an alarm clock. I would recommend setting a backup alarm for the first little bit until you get used to the settings and being sure the alarm is actually turned on (watch for the little bell symbol). It seems to be very reliable when I properly set it.", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3390, "id": 155, "interval": [600, 700], "len_words": 498, "len_tokens": 647, "text": "I love this voice-activated clock! It's extremely easy to use, and lets me record daily or one-time reminders for absolutely everything (time to leave for an appointment, time to take medicine, time to turn off cooling fans after they've run for 30 minutes, etc.). It speaks with a pleasing, polite female voice, and easily understands both male and female voice commands. If there is moderate background noise, it may not understand some spoken commands, but muting the TV took care of this for me.
The clock is very easy to set up. You insert batteries (to hold your custom settings during power outages); plug the clock in; and use the manual setup ONCE to set the month, day, and year. After that, you simply say \"Reminder assistant\". The clock will respond, \"What can I do for you?\", and wait for you to answer with one of the 12 standard commands (for example, \"What time is it?\", \"What day is it?\", \"Record reminder\", \"Play reminder\", \"Set alarm\", \"Snooze\"). If you can't remember a phrase, you say \"Help\", and the clock will explain all of the commands. To perform any function, all you need to do is follow the clock's voice prompts.
You do have to use exact command phrases (which is why my clock is named \"Jo\", after the strict, do-it-by-the-book cop in the SyFy series \"Eureka\"). I would like to be able to record my own command phrases, but of course that would make the clock harder to set up, and would probably make it cost more, too. You record reminder messages--anything that fits into six seconds--in your own voice, tell the clock the time for the reminder, and whether or not it is a one-time or recurring reminder. At the assigned time, the clock plays your message, and repeats it until you say \"Reminder off\". Reminders apparently do not turn off until you issue a command--I tested one reminder for 10 minutes, and it did NOT turn off automatically.
The clock's big, blue, digital display is very bright, even when set to \"dim\". All of the clock functions can be performed manually, using buttons on the clock back--but it is rarely necessary to use manual commands. There is an on/off switch on the clock back that controls the daily alarm clock, which I have set to permanent \"off\", because I use the clock for short-term reminders, and to keep track of the day of the week (it's easy to forget the day, when you work from home).
For short-term reminders, I much prefer to use this clock instead of my Talking Timer ([[ASIN:B002VSZP18 Tel Timer Talking Countdown Timer]]), because the Talking Timer has a distracting vocal minute-by-minute countdown for the last ten minutes (useful for cooking), and is a single-event timer. The iTalk Reminder Assistant Voice-Activated Clock allows you to record up to ten reminders, which run simultaneously, and it simply plays your recorded reminder when \"Time's Up!\" (without any countdown).", "label": 1}

In short: Light, breathable, not hot, blocks light, good adjustable fit, super silky, doesn't dehydrate skin, is gentle on skin- no rubbing, dragging. Cozy plush feel. Good stitching, nicely packaged.
I rate this primarily on my experience. I dont factor price in. Prices fluctuate, there are coupons, everyone has different budgets, preferences, and so on. You decide if it is worth it. This is actual silk and there is a price tag that goes with it. Not everyone wants a polyester dupe. Not everyone wants low level silk (that feels like polyester). If you have no preference, then there are some lovely low level momme silk options, as well as some nice polyester satin options for fraction of price. This is for those that want actual silk (RIP silkworms). That being said, I have used a wide variety of eye masks of different materials and styles. Here is my take on this:
It feels light and lush. Very soft and silky. I am privvy to the look, feel, performance of various textiles including various silk levels. This is 25 momm and feels like it. I dont question that at all.
Silk is nice for any skin, but is particularly gentle on delicate skin or skin easily irritated. It is breathable, and it doesnt dehydrate already dry skin. I notice that my skin is less parched when I use silk versus low end polyester. That is material that is smashed up against my skin for 8 hours each night. I would prefer to not have material that is rough and drags against my skin. Same can be said for pillow cases and my hair. Though I do keep other styles at my bedside, I always come back to silk. I happened to be in need of another real silk mask because I accidentally washed and dried my trusty silk mask and it shrunk significantly (note to self: hand wash, air dry.).
The fit is good for me. Generous size which is nice for my wide face and big nose. Plenty of elastic and the adjustment option allows it to be as loose or snug as I desire. I find that it blocks light from every angle. I normally dont mind a little light to seep through so long as I dont notice while my eyes are closed. But this blocks it all out for me. I had to lift an edge to see if the tv was still on (my hubs will watch tv in bed with sound off/captions on). I couldnt tell. Come morning, I pushed the mask up a little so as not to accidentally sleep all day.
Not hot. Some masks really trap heat. This is breathable. Again, function of the material used. Of course any material can block light. So it comes down to your needs and preferences.
Nicely packaged
At time of review, this was $35 with 30% coupon. While I dont rate on price (except for in the rate features section, which I give 3 stars), I will comment that $35 is the ceiling for nearly all 22-25 momme silk eye masks. If you can get it in the 20 something range, then that is reasonable.", "label": 1}

I keep a selection of instant coffee on hand for at home and on the go. I sometimes add it to smoothies, sometimes I make a quick iced drink (shaken), sometimes I just want a very quick cup of coffee and the taste of instant can be pleasing to me. More often, I add it to a cup of brewed coffee. Get an extra boost (flavor, caffeine)! And that is primarily how I drink this. I make myself a cup of dark bold coffee, blend a packet of this in, and enjoy. I like the light vanilla taste, and the sweetness level is on point for me. I dont often sweeten my coffee as I prefer it black, but I do enjoy some sweetened coffee with cream on occasion.
Prepared as is? The sweetness level is more pronounced, as is the vanilla. Wish \"no sugar added\" products that use sugar alternatives would use less. So made alone is a tad much for me.
I like that it is super quick and easy to make, can be made with hot or cold water, and is well packaged. I like the added supplements. The amount of collagen peptides is low (3 grams), where my typical scoop of collagen powder always offers 10+ grams per serving.
You decide. It uses SUCRALOSE as its sweetener. I have found it used in \"keto\" products, but I also see many keto products omitting it and using something else. I am not on a strict keto diet, nor any keto diet. I am just reducing my sugar intake, and by doing so I tend to buy things that end up using sucralose. SO FAR, I have not had any issue with weight loss. It is October as I write this, and I have dropped 50 lbs since April, and I haven't tried all that hard. Just dropped sugar laden desserts and have been moving more. Maybe my weight loss would be further along, but I still take down half a pizza every week. But massive calorie reduction from dropping desserts, and using sugar free alternatives.. which happens to include sucralose. I'd like to see less of it used across the board, but in mean time it doesn't seem to be a hinderance to my health and goals.
I do not rate on price as we all have different budgets, needs, interests. The price is posted, and not a surprise, so I just focus on my experience and perception of taste, quality, and how it lines up to the product description. THOUGH, I do comment.. and this really is ridiculously priced. I have some good instant coffee products with similar nutrition profile where each pack is in the upper $1 range (and people still freak over price). So for me, this is a bit prohibitive for daily use, but that is just me and my budget.
The packaging is cool though. Might make for a nice addition to a food or coffee or keto themed gift basket. Nice looking packets tucked into a tray with a slide on cover. Then it is wrapped in plastic. Has a retail look to it.", "label": 1}

That has a tendency to make a person cranky and feeling more tired than normal. I have been trying to get more fresh, raw, and green into my body to help counteract this winter problem. Let's take a look at this..
WHAT IS THIS LIKE?
This is a pretty large foil sealed bag of barley juice powder. Notice it says JUICE. That is essential when you are taking barely green. Some people think that buying ground up barlely greens is just as good- it isn't. This is very bright green and smells VERY fresh.
HOW DO I USE THIS?
I do not put this into things, but I prefer to get some refrigerator cold water, put it in my tiny cordless blender, and put a teaspoon of this powder in. I run it for one cycle which is barely a minute, and then I have the most luscious fresh green drink you can get without fresh greens. There is a lovely layer of foam on it and it tastes heavenly.
DOES IT REALLY TASTE THAT GOOD?
I must preface this by saying that I have had varieties of green powders, fresh green drinks including fresh wheatgrass and kale smoothies. I know what fresh juice from many greens tastes like as I have made them from time to time. This powder is one of the best I have had since the days when I used to take Green Magma from Japan, which was one of the original barley juice powders.
HOW DOES THIS COMPARE TO WHEATGRASS?
This has a sweetness that is not quite as intense as wheatgrass juice is. It is easier to drink in my opinion than wheatgrass.
DOES IT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE?
I will say that using barley juice powder helps a lot to add energy to my day, helps me to sleep better and it does tend to detox. I would recommend you start with a half teaspoon at first if you are not used to this kind of product. Work up to a teaspoon. It also does keep me regular and not feeling quite so wiped out in times of stress.
DID I GET A DETOX REACTION?
I eat really healthy, do I did not get a detox reaction, but I also made sure to start with half a teaspoon and work up to a teaspoon. It is important to go slowly with this as it can be a bit much if you are not used to it.
THE BOTTOM LINE
This has given me energy, a more positive outlook, helped me feel supplemented, and definitely is helping me through winter very well compared to not having it This tastes fresh and makes a wonderful drink.
MY RATING
FIVE STARS. I will be buying this again. I stopped getting barley juice powder because I just could not find a really good quality one.. until now. (grins).", "label": 1}

Gas is one of the major causes of bloating and pain that people with IBS endure. Trapped bowel gas can also develop after surgery. General anesthesia causes the bowels to \u201cgo to sleep,\u201d and the first step in them \u201cwaking up\u201d is to release painfully entrapped gas. Raphanus Sativus can strongly assist the bowels in that recovery.
There are other excellent sources of homeopathic remedies besides Boiron, including Hyland's and Dolisos. I tend to choose Hyland's when possible because of their easy-open bottles and quick-dissolve tablets.
I have included below some important general information on how to take homeopathic medications for those who might need it.
Preparing for Taking Homeopathics
It is a good idea before using homeopathics to brush your teeth well with baking soda, which has no odor of its own and removes any food odors from the mouth. It is important to avoid mint toothpaste because mint negates the benefits of homeopathics. Do not put anything else, including water, into your mouth for 20 minutes after placing a homeopathic remedy under your tongue. It is also a good idea to avoid food and drink with a strong taste, such as garlic and spicy food, for as long as possible after dosing with a homeopathic remedy, ideally waiting at least an hour.
There are two ways to take homeopathics, dry dose and wet dose. Below are instructions for both.
Dry dose
Note that when taking homeopathic medication, the compounds are volatile, so you should not touch these tablets with your hands. Instead, shake 2-3 tablets into the bottle\u2019s cap and drop them under your tongue. Be very careful to not touch the cap to your lips or tongue such that saliva gets on the cap, and from there contaminate the remaining pellets in the bottle. Placing the remedy under the tongue allows it to be absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the thin membrane there. Hold the remedy there for several minutes without swallowing until it completely dissolves.
Wet Dose
1. Use a clean, dark-glass, 2-ounce dropper bottle or spray bottle.
2. Place 3-4 homeopathic tablets in the bottle.
3. Add 1/2 ounce (1/4 of the glass bottle) of vodka or rum as a preservative. Screw on the cap and shake well until the pellets are dissolved.
4. Add 1-1/4 ounce pure distilled water (that is, fill the bottle about 1/2 inch from the top). Screw on the cap and shake well, and shake each time before you take a dose.
5. A dose is 1 dropperful or, if a spray bottle, one spray. Drop or spray the liquid under the tongue and hold it there for several minutes.", "label": 1}

I've got a nice SonicCare electric toothbrush in the bathroom, but because I'm retired and don't have to get dressed up to go out anywhere, I don't have a grooming routine. I don't have an alarm clock either! I needed something like this to keep close to me to help me remember to use it, so when I was offered the product at a discount in exchange for my honest review, I was pretty happy about being able to try it.
I'm sure I'm not the only senior who wears comfortable clothes and falls asleep in them. If my clothes are not dirty, I've been known to wear them for days at a time. I'm probably also not the only senior who doesn't register what day or time it is half the time. I keep my hair cut very short so if I forget to comb it nobody will notice. I work on my computer almost every waking moment, and it seems the only time I get out from under that cloud is when I'm in the kitchen cooking. It's only when I'm waiting for the microwave to finish or the coffee pot to stop perking that I suddenly become aware of my body...at which point I usually realize I need to brush my teeth.
I've tried keeping a spare manual toothbrush and toothpaste in the kitchen. Both have a tendency to fall into the sink with the dirty dishes. I like this brush because I can clip it to my T- shirt or pocket (where it looks like some kind of space pen) and whip it out for a quick brushing while I'm waiting for the microwave to finish. I love how you can "dial" out just a little toothpaste, not so much as to require a lot of water, do a quick brushing, then rinse at the sink, stick the brush back into its cap, and get back to what you were doing.
My Tom's of Maine toothpaste tube wasn't a perfect fit for the screw-on end through which you fill it, but it was good enough. I just turned the dial down as the tube filled with toothpaste. Dialing it back up with the thumbscrew pushes the toothpaste up through the center of the brush. It doesn't take much. I don't know what people are talking about with "cleaning" it. I wouldn't bother with that. I think as long as you rinse the brush end well and dial a tiny bit of toothpaste back into the bristles (like flushing a syringe), there's no reason to have to clean the toothpaste reservoir. Just put more toothpaste into it when it's getting low, I would think.
Disclaimer: I came of age at a time when kids actually played in the dirt and exposure to germs was considered a good way of building up immunity. If you're one of those people who showers three times a day and has to clean everything to within an inch of its life all the time, you probably won't like this toothbrush.", "label": 1}

My name is Paul, I've been diagnosed with vitamin D so low it wins limbo contests. I have been on various vitamin Ds for years, every time I get my blood tested it's low. Every doctor's like \"oh, well take 5000 a day you'll get it back up in no time.\" and for the past 15 years or so I've been taking more than that daily. I just burn right through it.
I also get severe insomnia if I take it later in the day... that's generally how I know it's working. As I have absolutely no method of testing whether this worked other than the feels, I took it later in the day than I normally would my globule D3 dose and discontinue that. I had severe insomnia for the two nights I tried it later in the day. My assumption is that means it's either D3 or speed.
On the feels spectrum it feels at least like what I take for 5000iu. I don't know that my body can tell the difference between 5000 and 10,000 however.
The pills are interesting. Not particularly bothersome. No nasty burps post pill.
I would say these feel effective, smell fine, take easy. As I've been on D3 for over a decade and on these for 10 days it looks like and it's now gloomy and fall-like out, I'd say they're working. I'll update if I feel they're not but it feel about right.
Man, I hate making \"feels\" reviews... anyone has a D3 testing blood kit around let me know.
Only thing of negative note was there was a sticker over the ingredients when I received this. Not sure if that was the MFG or Amazon's warehouse but considering it covered ingredients, manufacturer, etc I peeled it off. Attached pic with and without sticker.
Under the sticker is that it's formulated in the USA, but nothing to indicate that the formula is actually grown, combined, packaged in the USA. The KaraMD, Inc address corresponds to a commercial office space in Cleveland but there are no clear markings from street view.
I checked out KaraMD on the BBB as I like to know who's producing things I'm about to ingest, seems like a fairly low rating generally involving sales tax issues, some supplements that didn't work, couple of complaints but resolved. BBB will always have low marks as a note, nobody thinks \"let's go there and rate this random company highly!\" All but one show a response, which is a good thing. Appears you'll get a response if it doesn't work. They've been around and are responding in, at least publicly a positive fashion.
I should note I'm pretty sure 10+ days ago the description claimed it was 5,000iu in the description text, 10,000 in the header, and 10,000 on the product I ended up receiving. What I'm reviewing says 10,000 for one pill.", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3397, "id": 2977, "interval": [600, 700], "len_words": 589, "len_tokens": 688, "text": "Since I noticed so many people leaving five-star reviews for a discount *before even receiving the items,* I thought it would be good to be particularly thorough with my review. I've purchased several sets of glass roll on bottles from Amazon. One of the first things to look for in the colored bottles is that the color is from the glass and not paint which may get eaten away by essential oils. And on that front these are winners.
Other than that, the key thing I focus on are the roller ball mechanisms. I've had some really bad experiences with the roller ball mechanisms from roll on bottles purchased on Amazon. Often some of the rollers are rather loose, and then within a period of use (sometimes upon the first use!) the ball falls out. The roll on is then useless, as the plastic is too stretched out to receive the ball back. There is a popular aromatherapy group that regularly recommends a cheap roll on bottle brand on amazon, and I can only imagine the aromatherapist in charge is getting a cut, as those particular roll ons have many duds.
Anyhow, as someone who sometimes sells roll on products on Etsy, I was curious as to how these bottles would compare to past duds. Although 6 tops is not much to go on (sometimes it is only 1 out of 8 that is defective in a batch and sometimes more like 1 in 4, but either way, that matters a lot when you are gifting or selling roll on blends), all of these tops have roll on mechanisms that are not loose. So as far as I can tell, should that experience remain consistent across the batches, these are the best roll ons I have come across on Amazon.
Now for the less good part: Companies like Plant Therapy (for small quantities) and SKS bottles (for those who buy mass quantities) have roll on mechanisms that are more substantive--where the part that holds the ball comes up a bit higher and curves around the ball slightly. I find those to be the most reliable, even lasting through multiple refillings. With holders that are not as high on the ball, often times even roller balls that seem to have a tight fit in the socket quickly come loose. Only time will tell how the Pure Acres Farm roll ons fare, but the design is not as good as those companies.
I received these bottles at a discount in exchange for my review. Unlike other companies I have reviewed for, the way this company worded their offer made it *sound like* the discount could be received in exchange for a five star review; I noticed that many people reviewed the bottles with five stars *even before receiving them* on this basis, and that disturbed me. That is not how reviewing for discount usually works. I feel that people looking to buy these bottles need to realize that the review numbers are greatly inflated.
I always provide unbiased reviews, regardless of the reviewing discount, but in my opinion, unbiased reviews should have been specifically solicited, as is common among companies soliciting reviews. Also, I had to use a relative's account because they did not specify that you needed Prime to receive your discount until after your application to review had been approved. This also has not been my experience with other companies that I review. So those are a couple of tips for the company if less so for those interested in the bottles themselves.", "label": 1}

I am not an expert and I do not have expensive lab equipment to test the ingredients in the essential oils with but I have years of experience with essential oils. I want people who buy them to be safe, so I make sure I check everything I can before I give a final rating. To me it is either a 100% essential oil or it's not. The three things I check when I get an essential oil is first is the aroma, second is the consistency of the essential oil and third is the color. I do not rate an essential oil on if I like or don't like the aroma. I do rate an oils aroma on the way it should be. With all natural essential oils, the aroma can be slightly different from batch to batch, even from the same distiller, depending on when it was harvested or many other factors but you should still know that it is Lavender essential oil. If I write a review on an essential oil, it will be an essential oil that I have years of experience with, I read about that essential oil and know what to expect, and I have bought this essential oil with the same botanical name from more than the source I am reviewing. I have bought Lavender essential oil (Lavandula Angustifolia) in the past from many companies but now I have seven others besides this one. I did check to see if there was a carrier oil in it and I did not find any oily substance in this Lavender essential oil. Essential oils are not really oil or a fat and to test for an oil or a fat, I used a very easy method of evaporation. With this test, you need to know that some essential oils evaporate within minutes and there are some essential oils that can take days to evaporate and with citrus oils that are cold pressed, you need to know that sometimes they can fail this test and can leave small amounts of non-volatile compounds that can leave a mark but should never leave an oily mark. Also, this \u201ctest\u201d is only valid on essential oils that have been diluted with an oily compound. This does not mean that the essential oil if it passes this test is pure because many essential oil companies cut their oils with alcohol, or other solvents that will leave no oily residue behind. Please learn everything you can about the essential oil you are going to buy and if you can buy up to four of the same botanical name essential oil from different companies. Remember there are many companies that dilute their essential oils with either carrier oils or solvents and alcohols and they are hoping you do not know enough about that essential oil.

My daughter has both a port-a-cath and a feeding tube, and also has had a PICC line and a central line in months prior, and one of the greatest difficulties we have had is finding a securement device that works well with for her and will hold some of the tubing and liens she has that are not easy to secure such as her feeding tube. The ones both supplied by the hospital and by her home health care are probably good for a standard set up with a child's feeding tube, as that is what they usually deal with but, with an adult it did not secure well and while one area would hold well it was too loose or tight in the other. This device with the separate strips that can be adjusted for the parts it needs to secure is absolutely an amazing answer to what was a very frustrating problem we had. And because of the fact that it's versatile in how it can hold the tubing and/or connector it can be placed in slightly different areas so that its not a constant irritant in one spot. It was also listed as hypoallergenic and my daughter has many problems with adhesives and allergies to them, and this one hasn't caused any problems even after 24 hours of use. And given the prices we have paid for various securement devices that did not work anywhere near as well the price point was excellent.
I really appreciated the seller was detailed in showing how their device worked in on their sale page and the different options for different types of tubing. Since it is not irritating her as other devices have, and her port securement device does, we will also be switching to use this device for her porta-a-cath. Obviously this will be something I will be re-buying on a regular basis. I was very happy to have finally found this listed, as well as the images demonstrating how it worked when search Amazon for a solution. I really cannot stress to a parent or caregiver how this really should be the first device you try because it's so versatile and you have so many ways of configuring it to work well, even if you later settle on a device made specifically for the tubing you have, using this device first is really going to show you what configuration you need in a device to hold tubes properly
The seller shipped it quickly and promptly and it actually arrived well before the date stated it would arrive when I ordered.", "label": 1}

My wife has long hair and fixes it every morning before she goes to work and then at night before church the nights we have church. This bad boy came in and I surprised her when she came home from work before we had church service tonight. First of all I scored major points for the surprise present and second of all how well it worked! The package comes with one (1) Hair Straightener; one (1) power cord; two (2) Alligator clips, and a User Manual written in English. First of all this hair straightener is very light weight so it is easy to hold in my wife's hands. The alligator clips are so that you can section off your hair into sections and straighten your hair out that way as well. It has a total of three different settings and the highest setting doesn't exceed 365 degrees which is perfect. My wife loves to straighten her hair and blow drys it and her hair isn't extremely curly but it does have some waves in it after it has air dried. She found that this straightener works perfectly for grabbing her hair and straightening it quickly without damage to her hair. She makes sure she adds heat protector to her hair before she used it. She loves how the bristles on the straightener grabs her hair and they do not tug or pull on her hair like her other straighteners that you are suppose to use to brush through your hair. I also find that it calms all her frizz in her hair as well as makes her hair silky smooth and soft. After she is done using the straightener her hair looks extremely healthy. She loves it and I love how her hair looks using this straightener by Kingdomcares. I recommend all my friends to buy this for their wives and daughters!

Use the tracking number provided by Amazon on the R & L Carriers website. My chair arrived 5 days early. --Relax, they do call you the day before and a signature is required. I tipped the driver $20 to wheel the pallet/package into my garage for the night (He came at 7:00PM !) --Treat the man nice, and he'll probably do the same for you. Just don't expect him to bring it into your house. --He's really not suppose to go further than the edge of your driveway (where you put your trash cans.)
SETUP: The driver gave me some awesome advice. Leave the chair in the box when you bring it in the house. Yes, believe it or not, by doing it this way, I was able to get this 244 pound beast inside all by myself !!! The secret is to slide the box where it is possible and "walk" the box where it is not. For my 4 step porch, I laid down a plywood sheet for a temporary ramp. The shipping straps made excellent handles and your chair will have protection all the way to your man-cave. Try it. --You can always resort to cutting the box open if it doesn't work out.
ASSEMBLY: Again, some reviews had me nervous. No sweat. Take your time "eyeballing" it. The "non-removable" retainer clips were already installed on the posts.--Not suppose to be, but they were. To solve the Chinese puzzle: Gently insert a small flat blade screwdriver in the very middle, twist slightly, slip the clip/retainer off the post GENTLY. (It may take you 3 hands, 5 minutes, or both). These are suppose to be one-shot retainers and they WILL break easily.--There were no spares. Next, get the leg assembly as close as possible. Connect the 3 color-coded pneumatic hoses and 1 electrical connection FIRST. (Moisten/lube the air connection fittings, it will help.) Slip the leg assembly support rings on the posts one at a time, then re-install the retainer clips. The AC power and controller cables easily connect on the bottom back of the chair. --You're now ready for lift off.
THE RIDE: Holy smokes... No buyer remorse here. This thing WILL have you smiling. Heaven on your back and kinky on your ass. --Another reviewer put it perfectly: "It works your butt over like a Greek." WARNING: Do not use more than 20 minutes (5 minutes in one specific area.) Yes, you will be tempted to ride all day, but like a hot tub, be sensible and don't over do it. --ENJOY.", "label": 1}

If you just insert the batteries and start randomly trying to take readings, you'll get a lot of connection errors. If you're going to use the \"press it against your skin\" method, it works a lot better if you wash your hands (which the manual tells you to do) and whatever part of your body you press the large electrode against. Dry/oily skin prevents it from sensing the electrical pulses from your heart. Washing moistens the area and will give you good readings, (but you don't want dripping wet hands.)
The screen resolution is adequate for a casual view of the waveforms, but to REALLY examine them you need to upload the readings to your computer (usb cable provided. Download the Viewer program from their website - don't bother using the disc). Connection to my PC was straightforward. Plug in the USB, turn the Device on, and open the Viewer. Click on \"Import Device Data.\" (It will tell you to create an ID. See the manual.)
Using the ECG Viewer program you can click on any part of the waveform and a larger view appears in a lower window. I did end up using Microsoft's built in Magnifier to make the whole Viewer program larger, which helped a great deal. You can see and count every block on the strip which is useful for a more thorough analysis, as readings are time-based in milli-seconds. It's not just the shape of the waveforms, but also the space between them that's useful for diagnostic info. Watch some youtube ECG videos made for nurses/students, if you want to learn more. It's not that hard to learn how to interpret a readout. You'll catch on after watching 3 or 4 videos. I find it quite fascinating myself, the ingenuity of being able to tell how well your heart is functioning just by reading electrical impulses.
Like most companies, they give you the usual disclaimers about not relying solely on this or diagnosing yourself, to keep the lawyers happy. But this little gadget can indeed tell you enough about your heart (after you learn how to read it) to make an informed decision to see a cardiologist, but of course you should have regular physical exams anyway when you're middle aged. It's not some devious plot to make you give doctors your money. Things really do go wrong with our bodies after a number of decades go by, especially if you smoke, drink, don't exercise, and don't eat right.
It's also not a bad idea to pick up a digital blood pressure device. They are fairly cheap and easy to use. Omron seems to be the top brand, but there are plenty of choices. Read reviews.
It takes only a few minutes a day to collect readings, which you can store on your smartphone and show your doctor. The readings you take at home can actually be more accurate than at the doctor's office, as you're at a more rested state at home, as opposed to fighting traffic on the drive over there, or rushing to be on time.
Sadly, this ECG monitor doesn't have Smartphone storage, but if nothing else, you can email readings to your doctor, or email them to yourself and pull them up on an ipad to show him.", "label": 1}

It is not illegal to drink and drive; it is illegal to drive drunk or impaired\". Well, it doesn't take much alcohol to get you legally drunk or impaired.
This tiny little device (2\" X 3\" X 0.5\") is a complex breathalyzer that uses your iPhone for results! It only takes less than a minute to `pair' with your iPhone (you must download the free BACtrack app. It will ask for credit card info, but is not charged).
First thing to do is set the settings to your gender and weight for accuracy. Note that females have fewer enzymes to break down alcohol and certain races have even less. Check Wikipedia or GOOGLE for this information.
Open the app, and when it says `take a reading', a clock appears and gives you one minute to prepare. Simply `BLOW NOW!' by taking a steady deep blow into the analyzer while watching the eight blue bars fill up - then you stop. There is a slight `click'. The test results are shown on your phone via a large number, such as 0.004 (which means it is likely you are very sober). Click 'OK' and you are shown a `graph' that indicate the times between `blows' and your alcohol level. 0.08 is legally drunk and you should test again in fifteen minutes.
There is also an option to get a \"Dose-Specific Effect\" of your alcohol level with suggestions. It is also very important to wait at least fifteen (15) minutes to test after your last drink, cigarette or food consumption.
You can `tag' a drink for future use in the computer storage, like a beer, glass of wine, liquor, etc. You can add a photo of that time period (although this would be more appropriate if you were at a party sharing the device and getting a shot of a 0.18% drinker looks like. The device does come with three plastic washable mouthpieces. There is a tab for notes. There is also a `share' button which lets you share your results on Facebook, text it, or tweet it. Now come on! Close out the program and your entire previous tests are stored. There is a system called `Zeroline' which estimates how long it will take your Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) to return to 0.00% based on your last test result.
My results the first time:
I enter `Male' and `195 pounds' at 8:00pm on an empty stomach; 4 ounces; Vodka with soda. This is a typical bar mix.
After one hour my BAC was 0.10. Over the legal limit. The second hour I drank a 2 oz. drink and waited an hour. My BAC was 0.065.
So 6 ounces of vodka on a fairly empty stomach with the `time to sobriety' (0.00%) would happen around 2:00am. This was interesting information. It's a pricey unit, but not anywhere near the over $10,000 it is estimated, to deal with being busted drunk driving. Drive safely!", "label": 1}

I take 4 daily with no stomach irritation or other problems. The pills dont taste that good and start dissolving upon contact with water. I take them with lots of water. So far my shedding as increased and is causing me concern. I haven't seen a change in the condition of my hair or balding areas yet and no uptake in growth rate either.
Of note, I was already taking most of the ingredients listed as contained in Toji in other supplements. So I expected this to kick in quicker since I have the vitamins, herbs and minerals already in my system for the last several (6-8) months. That hasn't happened but I'm Still hopeful , I will update in another 30 days.
Updated_ July 27
Two days away from concluding my second bottle and so far....I have no increase in my hair growth ( i only get 1/8" a month) , no increase in shine ( my hair's still frizzy and unruly) or thickness either( still thinning with bald spots). I have increased shedding and breakage since I started to take these, which is upsetting to me. My fingernails do seems to grow fast but that is all that I have noticed. I am not happy with my experience taking these so far.
Update August 28- added stars to my rating.
Beginning my fourth bottle and I'm finally noticing a betterment in my hair. It still grows slowly but I have noticeably growing hair at my edges. Shedding and breakage has decreased and my hair seems a little thicker. . It looks much better than it did three months
ago or even one month ago.
Update at 4 months: September 25
Still no faster growth and only minor thickening. I've reduced my dosage to half... One in the morning and one in evening and so far no change in the condition of my hair.From my last update. i think ive gotten all I'll get from these. I plan to continue two a day for the time being until I can find something else.
Final review october 2013
I no longer take these. I saw only minor improvement in the condition of my hair after almost 5 months at high dosage, which was four a day. My fingernails grew pretty fast but that's it. I saw no regrowth in bald/thinning areas and no change in growth rate either. I've stopped taking them and so far, nothing happened. No shedding or breaking etc. Seemed they weren't that effective for me. Very pricey fail.
February 2014 second try
I'm desperate to stop my hair loss so I'm giving these another try. It seems they were effective in slowing my loss and some increase in thickness. Since I stopped taking them it seems my hair went back to very thin. It took about three months to show. So if this worked and I didn't notice it's worth a second try. I need it bad because nothing else is working. I started two a day for one month January and now back up to 4 for the next three. I will update in 30.", "label": 0}

Because of this, I feel I should address some of the specific concerns mentioned in the other reviews...
FIRMNESS: At first glance, this cushion seems very stiff because it is. If you weigh less than 115 lbs or are very sensitive to firm seats, you may want to look elsewhere for a softer cushion. However, for the average person, the initial firmness slowly gives way as you sit in it and offers a nice balance of support and cushioning, rather than disappearing beneath you as some softer cushions do! Also, as anyone who has owned memory foam products knows, the stiffer foam should hold up better over time. My wife is 125 lbs and uses hers all day, every day, as a receptionist in a busy office. She loves it! And it's still supportive enough for me to use, despite me being a much bigger and heavier person.
SIZE: The stated measurements are spot on. This is NOT a "large" or "extra large" cushion, much more of a "medium" size. In fact, it says "mini" in the product title, so anyone thinking they were getting a huge cushion simply wasn't paying attention, ha ha!. That said, it's not really "mini" either. It's a nice versatile size that will fit most kitchen and office chairs, as well as car seats. I'm a tall guy with a wide 38" waist and my wife is naturally "curvy" where it counts...while we definitely wouldn't want this cushion to be any more narrow than it already is, neither of us has difficulty getting comfortable on it.
ANGLE: Someone complained that they didn't like the fact that the cushion was "angled". Well, it says "wedge" in the title and it clearly shows the heavily angled profile in the picture! This is great for keeping you from sinking backwards into chairs too deeply and also relieves pressure on nerves and arteries in your thighs by decreasing their angle. Of course, not everyone likes the feeling of an angled cushion, but if you bought this thinking it was a straight cushion, you should probably get your eyes checked! Also, just because you don't like the shape, it doesn't mean the cushion isn't a good value, because it is!
If you want a "soft" cushion, a "straight" cushion or are worried about the overall width, feel free to look elsewhere, but be ready to pay more!
Personally, I'd probably opt for a slightly wider cushion myself if I was going to buy another, but my wife and I still have no complaints about the overall performance and quality of this product. Recommended!", "label": 1}

1) This bag is tall and thin. The machine at the bottom makes it so bottom heavy that the rest of the bag wants to flop forward. Most other bags are wider and not as tall, making the less liekly to flop or fall.
2) Problem #2 is the complete lack of any kind of pocket or mesh. Nothing to put an an extra feed bag in, or packets of santizer wipes or, well, anything at all. The criss cross things in the front are virtually useless. I tried putting some things in there, tightening it, and they were loose and unstable. Tightening the bungee too much makes the bag look ridiculous and cinched.
3) Problem #3 is that mesh pocket inside the bag for the machine. It's a job for the jaws of life getting the machine in and out of that obnoxiously small pocket. I know other reviewers have said similar things that it will stretch and whatnot. It really kind of doesnt. It does *a little*. But not much. It has absolutely zero stretch in the material. I used to only put the machine in the bag when we went places, but it took so much f*ing time to manhandle the machine into the pocket, and then break my finger tips trying to get it out later, that we just keep it in this bag at all times. In that respect it actually works out bc we hang the bag from hooks and it's portably convenient. So there's a star, I guess.
4) Problem #4, is that there is (was) no way to charge up the machine while it's in the bag. What if you're traveling a long distance, or will be out for most of the day? I have to pry the machine out of the pocket and stuff it back in for half an hour just to get it charged? No. I did that like an idiot the first couple of times, and then decided to just cut a very small hole in the mesh and it opened up into the perfect space for the cord to fit through. Apparently it was too hard for this company to consider that people might actually have the audacity to want to charge the machine while in the bag. (eyeroll). Easy to solve, but it just shouldn't have had to be that way.
5) Problem #5 is that the flap for the window doesnt have the option to stay open. My son gets feeds during the night and its so annoying to try and undo that velcro every time the the machine beeps, which is alot. Again, easily solvable with a safety pin, but it just shouldnt have to be that way.
Generally, the bag does what its designed to do but not one single other thing. The other star is for the the fabric being easily cleanable. A dry-ish sponge and some scrubbing and it gets off any splatters of formula.

I've personally tried a lot of energy/meal replacement bars, and been let down by most of them. Typical bars are loaded with soy, refined sugar, and ingredients that are incomplete or simply harmful. In the Garden of Life bars I've finally found something that tastes great, fills me up, and is amazingly healthy. There are a lot of things to like about these bars, and very few not to:
A balance of Meal Necessities - The bars include 40g of (good) Carbs for quick energy, 6g of Protein for sustained energy, and 6g of good fats for a satisfied feeling after eating. It's important to understand that the fats and carbs in this bar are for the most part completely good for you, they are not empty carbs or bad fats that are typically avoided in diets. The result is a nice satisfied feeling after eating one.
Provides 5g of fiber per bar - Most people don't get enough fiber, and definitely not the quality fiber in these bars. 3g of that fiber is soluble, the best kind. It's very rare to find this in a bar, and a great way to add needed fiber to your diet.
All the benefits of a green drink, in a portable and tasty format - While those green foods drinks are great for you, I personally can't stomach them, and don't have the time to mix and drink them all day. These bars are made from exactly the same thing as GOL's Perfect Food and Super Seed Mixes, giving you all the healthy fruits, veggies, sprouted grains and sprouted nuts, sweetened with honey and put in a convenient portable format.
Sweetened with Honey, NOT sugar - One of my biggest complaints with energy bars is that they're usually loaded with sugar, which gives a temporary rush of energy, and then a crash, tweaking out you insulin levels in a way that is not healthy. The GOL bars are different in that while they are roughly 20% sugar, the only sweetener used is Honey, which is a complex sugar that doesn't affect your body negatively the way refined sugars do.
Probiotics in the Bar - Garden of Life is known for their probiotics, and they have included some in the bar, to give you not only a balanced nutrition supply, but also some helpful bacteria to digest it with.
Finally, possibly most important of all, Taste! - The taste is a lightly sweet, pleasantly textured faint raspberry flavor. Biting into the bar is a satisfying feeling; it is soft but there is a \"bulk\" to it. There isn't a gooey or crunchy feeling like other bars, and no nasty chemical taste.
There are a lot of things to like about these bars, and very few not to. Try one out - you'll be pleasantly surprised at how great a meal bar can be!", "label": 1}

I have below shoulder length, poker straight, fine hair thanks to being of Eastern European descent. It doesn\u2019t take well to holding a curl despite thickening spray, mousse, etc. In the past have use a Revlon curling iron (with a clip) which actually curled and a Calista Perfect Styler brush style curling iron. Not sure why but the Calista Perfect Styler gave volume that lasted. Had been the ONLY thing that has so far but that was 7 years ago.
Bought this as needed a bigger barrel due to longer hair and retractable bristles as have gotten hair tangled in past. The retractable bristles are okay. They still have tangled several times though. Even at the hottest setting\u2014-410F this will produce a very loose wave at most and it will last no more than 20 minutes if I\u2019m lucky. I\u2019ve used it only 3 times now using very small strands of hair, keeping in for about 20-30 seconds, retract. Little \u201cflip.\u201d Doesn\u2019t last anyway. So disappointed as had really high hopes for this.
May work well (not sure) as straightener or on someone blessed with thicker, wavy hair but for me, even at highest heat- no results. Doesn\u2019t even do the trick of polishing ends and giving any volume by flipping under when just used as brush curling iron to turn under ends (not using retractable feature).
Gave 2 stars as has a larger barrel (not easy to find, retractable bristles can be helpful. Really wanted this to work like Perfect Styler used to but unfortunately didn\u2019t. Not sure why. Heats up quickly, auto off. No real risk of burning fingers or skin. If they come out with an \u201cimproved model\u201d with higher heat, maybe ceramic, infrared barrel I would be willing to test. I will keep as won\u2019t return something I have already used on my hair, though only 3 times and hair was clean with volumizing shampoo and thickening spray.
Update: Decided to give tus one more try and carefully watched videos. I\u2019ve been using various styling tools from hot rollers to curling irons to styling brushes so I know some work better than others. This, unfortunately, was not one of the better ones for me. I have hair past my shoulder. It is fine, very straight, and hard to curl (or do anything) so knew was looking at at challenge. I tried one more time to be fair before I returned. I used smaller pieces of hair, on the highest setting (410F). I held each \u201ccurl\u201d for over 20 -25 seconds. Nothing! Barely a \u201cflip!\u201d I tried again 3 more times. Took photos but for some reason Amazon not giving me an option to submit. Wanted you to see just a VERY slight turn and it didn\u2019t stay for more than minutes. Usually a tourmaline ceramic barrel is better but for whatever reason not in this case. And again, hair tangled even with retracted bristles.

I have tried some awful inulin products. I have even discarded some. I appreciate this companies commitment to customer service & quality. Some brands of inulin can be awful, some I've had to throw away. I have tried over a dozen and this is the best brand at the best price.
Important Info: Do not take your meds 2 hours before or after taking any fiber. Many people don't know this.
It's also very important your guts bacteria needs to develop a relationship with fiber. Introduce it slowly and work your way up. Inulin is not a very strong sweetener as some claim. It is a superfine prebiotic. A prebiotic feeds the probiotic beneficial bacteria. You need both for optimal happy gut bacteria.
Inulin from Jerusalem artichokes has an ancient homeopathic history. It's a North American Plant that native American's consumed. Europeans love this plant and it has many uses. It was almost used as biofuel in the US.
Caution some people are very sensitive and will get gas and cramps. You need to build up tolerance slowly so that you can reap the amazing healthy benefits. Diabetics will benefit from this wonderful plant fiber. Avoid type two diabetes consume inulin sensibly. Fiber works properly if you take it with water. All fiber needs water to work. If you do not drink enough water with fiber it's bad for your kidneys.
Inulin is my favorite prebiotic. I take it with my probiotics.
It's a waste to take Probiotics without Prebiotics. Prebiotics feed your probiotics.

These suck.
Hear me out! And come with me and you'll see a world of puuuurely objective opinions.
I will start by saying that I have never tried hemp wraps before; I have only ever used tobacco leaf wraps. What I will say to start is this is quite similar to tobacco wraps and I completely understand why there is another option on the market. But even with this, I feel like this particular falls flat in what makes wraps so sought after.
1. There's no gosh darn flavor!
I clearly didn't heed the warnings in the comments about these being bland. And bland doesn't even cut it because these are criminally minimalistic in everyday possible. And some of the smells I can't even begin to understand how they arrived at that scent for that \"flavor\". In example, OJK is usually a kush-esque smelling wrap or a completely plain wrap (in my world of wraps). It smells like off brand fruit snacks someone's eating in the other room with the door cracked and tastes like rolling papers. Yes, there is a significant difference between rolling papers and blunt wraps. Come for me, I don't care, It's the truth. Also, every single one, as you can see in the photo, has been opened to find one with flavor. The answer is none, but the grape and blueberry ones do actually smell like they should. Don't taste like anything...but do smell like stuff. Which, I guess, is something. But I literally don't know what some of these flavors should be, js.
2. Do I look like Spiderman? Am I able to secrete a sticky substance from areas that don't make sense, so I can keep my shotty, little blunts together? No. No, cuz I'm Dr. Batman and I don't even have blunt glue on tap on my utility belt. Crazy right? These have little to no stickiness, which is important in blunt wrapping. Just saying, I ain't a miracle worker and I though I do wrap decent blunts...I need help, okay? Batman needs help keeping their blunts together cuz it's either not enough or one lick too much with these.
I am a flawed person asking you to see me, not judge me.
Pluses tho...
1. Doesn't rip easy
2. Doesn't taste super chemically
3. Is a little harsh, but not as harsh as some other wraps I've tried
4. Decently priced
Wrap it up cuz this has been waaay too long? OK, so these are not great and also not good. These are BASIC asf. If you like basic, you are valid in your own right, but I can't understand your life choices. All that aside, I think these would work for people who like a little hint of something, but mostly want to smoke to get the job done. These will get the job done and I think that's the most accurate and sensible thing I can say without digging too deep into myself to find the \"right\" words. Am I being too harsh? That's relative. You don't read Batman for nice. You read Dr. Batman for real. Mwah.", "label": 0}

All the youtube peeps are talking about it. Personally, I have dark circles so I am always in need of an eye gel to help me out with that.
How to use the product: You can use it at night or in the daytime under makeup. I actually found it decreased creasing on my eyelid.
My experience with the product: Like I said, It made the application of my eyeshadow so much better and my dark circles are significantly lighter.
What I know about the company: This is my first time buying from this company and I haven't heard anything about them (good or bad).
Compare it to other brands or similar serving products: I don't know much about the chemical process of these eye gels but they always give me the same results. That being said, it works.
Packaging: Everything was sealed for my protection.
Color of product/design: I like the design and color, it fits well on my makeup counter.
Why I gave 5 stars: I\u2019ve done it too. You look at Amazon and said 4 stars? Why not 5 stars? Was something wrong with the product? Why did they give it 4 stars? Well, if the product has nothing wrong with it I\u2019m going to give it 5 stars. If it has something quirky about it, I\u2019m going to give it 4 stars. If I had to return it because of an error in shipping or I really wasn\u2019t happy with the product, but its an overall good product, it gets 3 stars. I rarely give 1 or 2 stars, but those are for the real stinkers. Like receiving a bag of chocolates that are melted together. That\u2019s a 1. So 5 stars doesn\u2019t necessarily mean \u201cI love it\u201d which is what Amazon says it means. It just means it\u2019s exactly what it says it is. There\u2019s just no way to say \u201cI love it\u201d to some necessary items. I may mark 5 stars on my monthly subscription to toothpaste because it cleans my teeth, but that doesn\u2019t mean I actually love toothpaste. It didn\u2019t make my day better\u2014It just was what it said it was. Anyway, I felt the need to clarify why I give out mostly 5 stars. I hope this was helpful.

{"sid": 3414, "id": 24153, "interval": [600, 700], "len_words": 612, "len_tokens": 681, "text": "I use sunscreen like crazy, I have very sensitive skin to both products and the sun so I am always trying out various types to see what works well for me. I jumped on the opportunity to try this sunscreen for free* to review since I can go through it so quickly and sunscreen can be expensive. Now it's winter right now, but I live in Northern CA so most days the sun is still shining and I tested this out one day that I was out and about and knew I would be spending some time in the sun. It's not about heat, but sun exposure and I've been known to burn during winter in the snow even. Overall it worked just fine, if I was around stronger sun exposure and in and out of the water I would want to apply it more often or to use a higher SPF which this doesn't currently come in. As someone who burns easily I take my sun screen seriously so I wouldn't recommend something that won't work well for me, because it definitely would not work for others. My kids are definitely not as sensitive to the sun as I am and this will be a good one for them to use as well, they usually use the lower SPFs that I have on hand during the summer.
Now this is a kids sun screen so it might sound weird that as an adult I am trying it out, but as mentioned above I have sensitive skin so often I buy children's or babies sun screens because they don't irritate my skin as much as some of the other adult ones can. The other thing I hate about having to live with constantly using sunscreen is the greasy feel and the gross sun screen smell. I really hate both. This sun screen is made with more natural ingredients and is made not just to block the sun but to also moisturizes as well. This is a slightly brown/grey color but once blended into the skin you can no longer see the tint. It blends and soaks in quickly and doesn't leave behind a sticky or greasy feeling that name brand sun screens can. The sun can also be drying to the skin and I felt like this moisturized my skin well.
Now the main perk of the sun screen is the smell, they scent it with some cocoa giving it a chocolate scent to appeal to kids. Well I love chocolate and not smelling like sun screen so I really liked the smell. It wasn't too strong and didn't bother my allergies to scents. I would say the scent lingers on your skin for about 30 minutes after which I no longer smelled it. If your hungry or craving candy it might bother you but other wise I found it fun and it made me happy smelling it.
I did think that this product was a bit expensive when I first saw it, it was running around $19 but Amazon prices can quickly fluctuate in any direction so that might not be the current price. The would be about double what you would normally pay for a name brand product in stores, plus shipping and that's why I thought it was pricy. However when you think about those commercial products they smell funny, are greasy or sticky feeling and are full of all kinds of who knows what chemicals. This product costs more, but is made with more natural ingredients that will probably be better for your skin in the long run.
*regardless of getting this sun screen for free this is my 100% honest opinion.", "label": 1}

I have been using reusable pads and menstrual cup since I was a teen and this stuffed was not very commercially accessible or talked about. Most women don't realise what a huge advantage it is, both monetary, health-wise and it's not that difficult to wash, contrary of what people believe, I haven't experienced any stains and leakage. This has a total of 5 layers one being PUL making it bullet prove. The only other company in the pads that does this is ''party in my pants pads'' but they are very expensive in comparison. Also, I had never used one with a bamboo charcoal layer. So I found pros and cons.
A huge pro is a minky material that against your skin is super soft, it's very breathable and absorbent so you won't fell like you're wearing a wet diaper. In comparison to other cloth pads they are very thin, I love that I can wear leggings or some tight clothing it doesn't bulk up like other cloth pads. I find the prints very girly and adorable, one of the advantages of using cloth is this. Also, I have not experienced any leak because of water prove layers. The snaps are very well done, they fell secure and are made with plastic so they won't rust over washes. They are also two so you can adjust them if you need them to be thinner. All the stitching were perfectly done. I love that it brought a mesh washing bag, I usually just throw it in the laundry with my intimate but this is nice to have. You get a pack of 5 this is a huge deal as they tend to be so expensive. They fold very small for your wet bag if you need to change them on the go.
I didn't find so many cons is more of a preference as I am not a huge fan of microfiber, YES I know they are more absorbent than cotton or other material but they tend to smell over time, there's a wildly know trick to just hang them to dry in the sun and this would work miracles also with stains. They are not as long as I prefer they would compare like a regular size diaposable pad. In the begging, the charcoal smelled like well charcoal after washing that went away, but that was another thing I had notice. I didn't find any instruction on how to take care of them. So after years of usage ill give a word of advice. Never add softener to your cloth pads as this diminishes the absorbency on them. Always wash in COLD so they won't stained, If you can try to soak them prior to washing them.
I will attach some picture in hope it will help someone who might be interested in this produc. If you have any questions or comments about this product or my review, feel free to message me and I'll be glad to help. I also posted a picture of all of my other cloth pads as people always think because I was sent a promotional item I am in the obligation to give a 5 star or I am being biased and this NOT the case. I am very passionate about the environment and I believe any knowledge that might be useful is always good to share.", "label": 1}

Heated socks were good, but they had hot spots (that hurt) and had no durability. Last year I tried heated insoles, which work great in my extra thick slippers but the heat was focused on the instep, leaving my toes to still get cold unless I used the hottest setting. So far these heated slippers are better as they seem to heat my whole foot - my toes are pretty happy again.
I give it 4 stars for wear-ability. The fit is good (ordered the small and I have small feet, men 8.5), but when walking around I feel a slight tendency for my foot to roll off the side of the sole. This feels a little dangerous.
I give it 4 stars for operation. Three things I'd like changed: 1) the buttons are way too bright during operation. When sitting in my lounger watching TV, the lights on my feet are a distraction. 2) Once turned on, it is way too easy to accidentally change the power level when your foot brushes up against anything. I think the button should be harder to press, or that you should have to hold the button down longer for it to change levels (by the way, they say to hold it for 3 seconds to turn on or off, but it's really about 1 second). 3) The color code of the power levels is weird. I have other heated devices that have 3 levels and ALL of them go Red to Green to Blue (red is highest, blue is lowest), but these slippers have Blue as medium and Green as low - that's just weird.
I give it 4 stars for affordability. $80 seems a bit high.
Something strange, but charging these batteries the very first time broke my usb adapter (rated for 2 outlets at 2.1a each). I didn't notice when it broke, but when I checked on the batteries a few hours later, the adapter was dead. It's hard not to blame these batteries, considering all of the use this adapter has had in the last few years.
I just ordered 2 pairs of extra batteries (which are not a bad price at $27) so that I can have heat all day/evening.
Update (Jan 17) - the accidental button pressing is getting very annoying. I suppose if you sit perfectly still (never cross your feet, or place them sideways on the floor or against objects) then this isn't a problem, but if you move your feet around at all, you are going to be changing the heat level constantly. Now I'm looking at my feet about every 10 minutes just to make sure I've not bumped the button again.
Update (Jan 20) - Durability - sucks. I've only had these for 5 days and already they are barely working. The first 2 days these heated my whole foot. Now, even on the highest setting, I can only feel a little heat in the very tip of the slipper. My feet are cold again. Very disappointed.", "label": 0}
{"sid": 3417, "id": 30929, "interval": [600, 700], "len_words": 570, "len_tokens": 668, "text": "This is a very nice standard essential oil diffuser. I own four diffusers currently, one USB portable one for my car, one USB one at my desk, and one other big one for use in my bedroom. Additionally, I have purchased and returned two others previously, a small bottle shaped one that stopped working after one use and another car one that did not fit with my car's configuration. I mention this because I want you to know what I find makes a good diffuser, and why this is a very nice one.
A good diffuser has longevity. My bedroom diffuser has been run nightly for almost a year without a hitch; meanwhile, the attractive bottle-shaped one I purchase for use in my workout room at my office lasted exactly one day. I have used Aiho's diffuser in a couple different rooms in my house over the last few months without any difficulty.
A good diffuser has decent aroma dispersal. My little desk diffuser is only powerful enough release enough mist to surround me the and the length of my desk but none of the surrounding offices, which is fine for this particular application. My bedroom diffuser could be a bit more powerful to intensify the strength of the aroma by my bedside on the opposite end of my bedroom (and we have an average sized bedroom). This diffuser is strong enough for a bedroom, but not as strong for use in an open-air living room like mine with two huge entryways. It would be perfect for enclosed rooms or smaller spaces like an average sized kitchen or dining room, but probably too strong for small bathrooms and not strong enough for a big basement. With a quality oil and a full tank, 15 drops or so will provide a potent enough scent to awaken your mind and memories.
A good diffuser has a large reservoir for overnight use. 500ml is one of the biggest sizes you can buy for a diffuser, and it will most certainly last you all night long. This is one of the most important features for me because I don't want it beeping that it's empty in the middle of the night, and I like to wake up to the scents in the morning because it starts my day off the right way.
A good diffuser is quiet. The Aiho diffuser is never louder than a soft whisper, but if it's very quiet in the room, say at night time, you will probably hear a sound like running water, which is the bubbling in the reservoir. I happen to like that sound because to me it's very feng shui, but if you think that would bother you, you may want an alternative style of diffuser like the kind with the wicks which do not make that sound.
Other features: the Aiho diffuser is very similar to almost all of the other diffusers I've owned. It has a lighting feature to emit a soft colorful glow. I only use that in my child's room as a nightlight or if I'm setting the mood. Otherwise it has basic on/off buttons and high/low buttons. I can't imagine any other features you really might need, but this has all the basic necessities.
All in all, this is a very good diffuser for the price. I am happy with it and hope it continues to last as long as my other one in my bedroom.", "label": 1}

First, the vendor is good, shipping was quick, packaging nice, instructions helpful, it is good there are two different strengths in the package.
I have had 4 big babies the regular way, and been doing Kegels pretty religiously since the 3rd (sporadically before that) The main reason I bought the Gyneflex is that I notice if there is anything in my bladder I can't jump around in exercise without, well, if you've had babies you know. Have been assured by trainer and gynecologist that this is normal for those who have had larger babies or many babies. I am fit and thin and since exercise has helped everywhere else I was hoping that upgrading the Kegels by adding resistance would help with this problem. Purchased the Regular strength since I had many births but had been doing Kegels all along.
Whew! Resistance does help but not with the original issue. I did get much stronger below, and moved from the light to dark pink, and see continued improvement. The device really makes it more clear which actions are working (pulling UP squeezes it closed better than pulling IN, for instance) The Regular set was the correct one to start with. The sex benefits may be overstated in the pamphlet but are real, when you are more fit down there everything feels better. But the exercise problem did not improve, still have to be very careful when jumping. I think maybe if you have this issue BECAUSE you are unfit below this may work, but using it to go from \"normally fit\" to \"super fit\" did not make a change in this.
I do not like the idea of using lube every day so took the advice of a previous reviewer and use jojoba oil, which works fine.
Exercise Notes - if you do the exercise reclining, as in the instructions, you may be closing the device by leaning into the bed, not using your muscles. At first I did this and thought \"wow this is easy!\" but then figured out it was being closed partly by the force of the body laying on the bed and not by the muscles. Switched to using it standing in the shower, which gives a better idea of the correct use of muscles and also less chance of being walked in on by a child and makes it easy to wash it off right away. I recommend strongly that you use it in different positions, not just reclined in the bed. I was a little freaked out that all the movement was front-to-back so do turn it sideways approximately 1/4 of the time. Also I think that it's better to do some medium tempo squeezing, some long holds, and some flutters instead of just pacing it evenly as per the instructions.
In short, highly recommended, device is great, but pay attention as you use it and figure out how it works best for YOU, don't just follow the instructions. And don't expect it to fix everything, but be glad for the results you get.", "label": 1}

I'm on my 2nd flosser as the first one starting turning on in the middle of the night. So did my second. I love this working unit. but I think there's a flaw in at least the gray one. Anyone have one that's lasted more than a month without a short? The last straw was when it went on in my carry on. In a plane. It's not been charged in 4 days. It's off and in all the time.

My original review is here :
This is one of my favorite purchases of the last couple of years. honestly. I am always traveling and it's hard to pack a standard or portable waterpic. I thought at best, this would be a good substitute while I am on the road but once I tried it--I immediatly offered my old waterpic to my husband. This thing is KILLER! the consumer video shown was really helpful, but for me a little misleading. This thing looked Giant--but in real life, I can wrap my hand around it easily and turn it on with my thumb, not finger, but you can do it however you want. The daily set up consists of flipping your "pic" of choice up, pulling the water tube down (it's rigid) and turn it on. High speed is GREAT. If you have a problem with the water not drawing either the water tube is up against the bottom--a slight design flaw, but you can control how far you pull it down, just millimeters off the bottom is fine, or you have a REALLY tight seal between the cup and the unit--just loosen it up to let some air out, and you get all the power. If it leaks, I think that's operator error, you need to get that "pic" on good and tight, but you only need to do it once. Once it's in, you just flip it up to use and flip it down when done. The cup is so handy, attaches to the bottom and holds your water via twist while in use, and when you're done, flip the pic down and the cup goes on top. viola! EASY to travel with and it actually looks great on the bathroom counter. Beautiful packaging is just a bonus. It comes with a USB cord, but not a charger, but you probably have a charger somewhere. I use it twice daily, have charged it twice and have owned it two weeks. It has not died, I just figured that a week was a good time to charge it, I can't say enough good things about this product. Flippin awesome!", "label": 1}

It was the lowest priced, but I felt a little uncertain as I purchased it because the 5HTP amount doesn't seem to be very high, the company doesn't tell me specifically how much 5HTP is in their blend, and it's a blend - something I've learned to be very careful with because many blends don't include enough of anything to work, and they can easily create an overdose situation when combined with other supplements. Fortunately, the only concern I had with this was that it wouldn't work....
... Ummm. It actually DOES work. I do have to take it more on an as-needed basis than I do with the pills. One in the morning, and two to three more throughout the day if I need them. It's a bit inconvenient to have to remember to pop more, but nothing unmanageable. It basically helps me control my own anxiety and depression. It does NOT make them go away on its own, but neither does 5HTP by itself. But it DOES make me better able to cope with stress without it impacting my physical health, and it also improves my mood by default a bit so it's easier to fend off depression and overworrying.
I get serotonin syndrome easily from antidepressants and get my serotonin supply burned all up, so that's why I take 5HTP instead (with my psychiatrist's approval). Instead of trying to limit the reuptake (e.g.) recycling of the body's serotonin to trick it into making more, 5HTP supports the actual production of serotonin. Because of this, it should NEVER be combined with prescription antidepressants - the combination is almost guaranteed to create serotonin syndrome. However, for someone whose brain still doesn't increase serotonin production with an antidepressant limiting its reuptake, 5HTP can be a literal lifesaving alternative. Chances are high in these cases that your brain needs help with MAKING serotonin in the first place; not just with regulating it.
MTHFR... take notice on this particular amino! It can resolve a LOT of mental health issues you experience simply due to MTHFR not processing certain key nutrients for mental health and stability.
The taste. Hahahaha. Orange cream was not the greatest flavor idea, okay? But it's tolerable enough. Just not enjoyable. And it is kind of slow to meltdown all the way. If you don't like the taste, a drink helps.

It will just give you a sore throat.
Technical data on testing:
The Berry Breeze (originally the Ozonator $50) generates ozone through a high voltage corona discharge. I measured the voltage at just over 4000 volts.
It puts out a peak 0.8 ppm ozone in the first 48 to 52 minutes; solid green LED.
It then goes into stand by for 195 minutes; blinking green LED.
Then it runs for 8 minutes. Thereafter in 203 minutes it generates ozone for 8 minutes or 8/203 (4% of the time).
This is why the 50 hour batteries can last for months.
The 1/2 life of ozone at 0 degrees C (32 F) is only 300 seconds.
The total time to decay back to stable O2 oxygen is 15 minutes.
In a standard 21 cubic refrigerator (.61 cubic meters) that 8 minute run time generates only 0.4 ppm, for a few minutes. This is not enough ozone concentration to kill anything.
Therefore the statement: \"Because Berry Breeze slowly release O3 into your refirgerator, food decompostition comes to a grinding hault - preventing them from molding and rotting. \"
Is FALSE. Did you notice the 3 typos?
To kill bacteria you need .25 to 2.29 ppm for 20 minutes.
To kill viruses you need .2 to 4.1 ppm for 30 minutes.
To kill mold you need 3.0 to 5.0 ppm for 60 minutes.
To kill fungi you need .02 to .26 ppm for 1.67 minutes.
So I put the unit into the crisper drawer: this works much better. The peak ozone was 2.5 ppm and decayed to 0 in 4 minutes, enough to kill fungi, but nothing else.
Then I put the unit into a 5 gallon bucket (21 liter) and sealed the lid. This produced 19.7 ppm. The decay time was 100 minutes, because it was airtight.
The only way to kill everything is to put the unit in a small airtight container, like the Rubbermaid Commercial Products, Plastic Space Saving Square Food Storage Container for Kitchen/Sous Vide/Food Prep, 12 Quart, Clear
Ozone density is 2.14 kg/m^3 or 2.14 g/l or .00214 mg/l = 1 ppm.
The unit generated a total .885 mg of ozone in the 48 minute runtime, which calculates to 1.138 mg/hour.
This is 4.5% of the published 25 mg/hour for the \"Ozonator\" identical unit.
I also tested the dissolved ozone in water in the refrigerator using 0 to .5 ppm test strips: after the full 52 minute runtime, in the refrigerator crisper drawer, it measured 0 ppm in an open glass of water.
I noticed that during all testing I had an irritating sore throat that lasted for hours.
All testing done in a sealed refrigerator or sealed bucket. It only takes a brief inhalation when snapping the cover on to start the ozone to cause a sore throat.

I can tell you this from experience. Getting pregnant with my first child took three years, a reproductive endocrinologist and surgery for both my husband and myself. Luckily the second child was much easier to come by. I easily got pregnant again but miscarried and have not been able to get pregnant since. Up to this point we have pretty much been guessing when I am ovulating, that is not working this time around. I am hopeful that using ChoiceMMed 50 (LH) Ovulation tests can help us. I used them this month and was able to pinpoint when exactly I ovulated and to know ahead of time that it was going to happen. You see one thing that the doctors never told me when I was trying to conceive my first child is that sperm can live up to four days inside of a woman. What that means is that you want to be having sex in the days before you ovulate as well as when you ovulate. By using the ChoiceMMed 50 (LH) Ovulation tests you can tell when your body is ramping up to ovulate. Because an egg is usually only viable for 12 to 24 hours it is not the worst idea to have some sperm waiting for it. Even if you know when you are going to ovulate it is sometimes hard to have sex in that small window of time but if you use the ChoiceMMed 50 (LH) Ovulation tests it should be easy to have sex a day or two before just in case you miss that small window of time. So here is my hint for using the ChoiceMMed 50 (LH) Ovulation tests, in the days leading up to ovulation you should try to have sex once or twice just to improve your chances of getting pregnant. It is nice that this package includes ten pregnancy tests. You are obviously going to need a pregnancy test to find out if your efforts worked. It is just convenient to have the pregnancy tests included with the ovulation tests. One thing I want to say about pregnancy tests in general is that false negatives are much more common than false positives and with a pregnancy test even a faint line is usually a positive. Each woman and each pregnancy are different. Personally Early testing does not work for me. I have to actually be late to get a positive result on any pregnancy test. With all of my pregnancies I believe I had false negative results before I had positive results. If you get a negative but not your period just test again in a couple days, you just might get a nice surprise. **DISCLAIMER** I received this product free or at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

This was a huge hassle and disappointing experience. I do not recommend this product or this seller. The seller was neither helpful nor honest with the return and refund process.
I bought 2 of these in January and they are great. Same seller, and same product advertised. Well, the wood on the 2 new ones is unfinished. This wood causes splinters when picking up or sitting on it. Also has a strong wood smell. The prior ones did not have any smell and the wood is a smooth, soft texture with a shiny coat over it.
I contacted the seller for a return, explaining the issue. They stated they could offer $50 as compensation of the $112 I originally paid. They said I did not need to return the items. When I said no, I would return to Amazon for a full refund, they made an offer of $90, still below what was paid. I stated that was not acceptable. They also said Amazon would refund me the tax. I contacted Amazon who said Amazon said that is not their policy to refund taxes. Amazon advised I should open an A-Z claim. Once this was done then the seller emails me right away to say they can offer a full refund but I have to close my A-Z claim first. I searched online and this is not uncommon for some third party sellers. One thread said they were asked to close an A-Z claim, and they said that they were born at night, but not last night.
This seller pressured me on multiple emails to cancel my A-Z claim promising a full refund. I did cancel the claim not wanting to be hassled any further. They emailed me and I was refunded the full amount.
I sent the items back as I will not use them and I do not want the seller to come back and say I never returned it to them.
I have dealt with third party sellers before where they refund or replace right away, with no low offers.
Of course this seller did not want an A-Z claim on their record as it hurts their seller reputation. However, below is from their email:
If we refund you first, Amazon will directly end the case and deduct points. So we need you to close this A-Z claim first.
Please rest assured that we are an honest seller. We will refund you the full amount immediately after you close the claim, otherwise you can complain to us directly to Amazon.
So could you please close the A-Z claim first?
That was the third email asking to close the A-Z claim.
Not honest seller if offering $50 of $112 paid for defective items. This was time consuming and a headache.
Not happy. Be aware. Be warned.
Never buying from this seller again. Think twice before you do.

I am so happy to see that a supplement company recognize consumers want third party tested even when made in the USA. There are indeed a few bad apples out there so thank you thank you Kappa nutrition for going the extra mile. Too many Made in USA supplements do not even know if the ingredients they used were made without heavy metals or contamination. I love love love as the seller stated \" We manufacture in our own facilities . We do not send to 3rd party to manufacture.\" You see we got lazy and just trusted what a company said was in the bottle. And there are some (me included) who have been taken advantage of with our trust. They knew all we wanted was a cheap price and 'promises' of quality and what not. There have been so many revelations recently of completely fake supplements as well as dangerous ones too with heavy metals etc.. So I personally look for companies that do their best to insure quality . And too Amazon now requires credentials/verification from supplement companies to try and help us. I can tell you now this will be my new source of magnesium from this company.
Ok so why do I take magnesium. Honestly mostly for sleep and so in the morning I stay regular ( think bathroom). And too oh gosh is it good for your brain. Those who follow my reviews know my deal is skin care and supplements (which is the reason I am so impressed with this company being third party tested and made in USA). In the supplement world we know Magnesium is a no brainer. Its kinda like a basic element for everything else to work. The dosage here they are offering is a tad bit higher than what I usually take but very very close. It's just the right amount to aid me with sleep and help stay regular and loose weight. While at the same time doing the thousands of beneficial things that my body needs from magnesium. True enough we get close to 'enough' from our food but if you go long enough with some inadequacies it can lead to neural problems. And we definitely do not get enough from food for sleep and digestion aid. You may have to experiment with dosage to find what works best for you but this is close to the dosage I take that being 2 caps at 280mgs.
I want to point out too that I am seeing many companies...now..... stating third party tested but when you get the bottle it is missing the third party badge/marking. So if they even did send it for testing was it an independent company that tested it ? Rest assured this bottle from Kappa Nutrition has the badge/marking as well as all the others like the GMP certification.
Once again I rarely review a supplement with a smile like the one I am doing now but it is so refreshing to see a company that cares what it is important to us as the consumers ! This magnesium is working great for me (because it's not fake and very bioavailable). I hope this may have been helpful !", "label": 1}

I'm happy with the visor and the light it puts out but figured I'd share some observations for anyone considering buying one.
Unless your surroundings themselves are very well lit, you'll find yourself blinded by light higher than a low/medium intensity. I find myself being much more cautious even on a setting of 3 (out of 5) until the time I actually sit down in front of the computer for a while, at which point I zap it up to 5 without issue. This ends up being about 20 minutes on 3 and about 10 minutes on 5....if I'm at the computer for longer, I'll just turn the visor on without using the timer.
I've had no problems with either blurred vision or headaches even though one of my light boxes has caused this in the past (the one that has a yellowish light for some reason....my bluish/pure white ones, also what this visor provides, haven't given me any issues.
The visor is really comfortable and the battery part, connected by a long wire, stays in place just clipped onto the neckline of my pajamas...you don't need something like a belt in order to keep the battery box happy.
I haven't had it long enough for it to need a recharge (it has supposedly "in excess of" 3 hours total use time before requiring such...depending on use of the timer and intensity of light). The recharge takes up to 12 hours. The initial charging time is 24 hours. The instructions say that the lights will start to flicker when the battery gets too low....although you can then plug in the recharger and continue to use it till your intended session is up. If you suffer from seizures you may want to keep track of how much time you get on a charge and then recharge before it starts to flicker.
This morning was my fourth morning to use it and I'm happy to say that I already notice a difference (I'd started out the season just trying to rely on having a box in place in the bathroom for the time I take to get my face clean/SPF'd and use some other lotions and potions for my morning walk and then a smaller one in place for when I'm at the computer (it's in use as my normal computer light year-round). That wasn't enough because my eyes are nowhere near close enough to either in those situations.
As of now, it's cheaper to buy here than on the manufacturer website....the price is the same but shipping here is much cheaper.
I was given an estimated delivery date that started a week after the date of purchase and extended another three weeks into the future. I figured the package was going to be forever getting to me. The seller/manufacturer shipped it out UPS on the same day as my order and it arrived the next day (we're both in Maryland). I was thrilled.", "label": 1}

After deciding to purchase this on Amazon with the plethora of gift cards my entire family seemed to think I needed this Christmas, I was excited to rip into the packaging when it landed on my front doorstep. The packaging is gorgeous! I opened it up and the scale is gorgeous! Wow, I'm super pumped to get it working!... and this is where the problems begin.
Now keep in mind that I am a network administrator, and my fiance is a network engineer. We know technology. We know home networks. This should be SIMPLE!... SO. WRONG.
First of all, they want you to use their program to set up the scale. Now, that has my suspicions raised. Oh, but there's a little link that allows you to do the setup through the browser. YES! This should be easy. After setting up an account, I connect to the Aria's own network, provide my home network credentials, re-connect to my home network and.... no go. Hmm, okay. Check the network settings - when you have two IT professionals living under one roof, all sorts of strange things happen to your network. Ahh, there we go, 802.11b is disabled, because nothing in the past 10 years has used it and it severely degrades network performance. Enable that and try again... and still a no-go. Download the troubleshooting logs for their tech support and use my knowledge my sift through it. Oh, you wanted me to send a log with all of my home network information in clear text? NO.
Okay, let's try this again, instead of using the browser, I'll bite the bullet and use their software. Still nothing, and now I have their crappy setup software on my computer that likely is going to leave a bunch of residual crap behind.
Google search issues and find that people have had success using an iPhone. Pull out my trusty work phone (the only time I will praise them for being Apple fans is when I need to use an Apple product) and try again. OH! Something different!... oh wait, it just says WIFI ERR rather than NO SYNC....
Needless to say, after 2 hours of playing around with this scale, I am going to return it. While the idea is excellent, their execution sucks. Kind of like communism. Sounds great on paper, is awful when implemented. I am not going to re-scope my entire home network for a scale, and then slow it down to allow 802.11b. (WHAT WERE YOU THINKING, FITBIT?! 802.11b?!)
I think this probably works very well for a vanilla, wide open home network that has never been tweaked, but for anybody who actually is technologically savvy and has any ounce of knowledge on how to secure a home network past a WEP key, you need to look elsewhere - this just isn't worth the hassle.", "label": 0}

The kit includes 2 lanyards. Each lanyard is 28\" long with a decently hefty cord lock which easily allows the lanyard to be adjustable to any length (see photo). At the end of the lanyard is a plastic clip that can be used to attach to the mask ear loops. The plastic clip is about the same size as a smaller paper clip. I could imagine the plastic clip breaking over time, but hopefully a solution for ending the pandemic happens before the clips break. I wish I had these lanyards a few weeks ago when I went to run errands with my mom. She kept misplacing her mask..too many pockets and places for a mask to hide. A mask lanyard would have been ideal for my mom.
Also included are 50 extenders that are 5 1/2\" long and can be used to wrap around the back of one's head and attached to the mask ear loops. Each notch is approximately 1/8\" deep (see photo). I tried to use the mask extender with a homemade mask that pretty thin elastic, but the extender didn't grip the elastic very well and I felt the mask would fall off my face. However, when I tried it with a disposable mask, the extender worked perfectly. I was even able to move the ear loops from notch to notch in order to adjust the mask without a problem. The design of the extender allows for numerous head sizes. I have a petite sized face and used the notches closest to the middle of the extender. My husband has a big melon (his words..not mine). The extender fits his head when he uses the furthest notches away from the middle.
And, there are twelve 3D brackets included with the kit. These brackets are the reason I ordered the kit. I've been wanting something that would allow more breathing room inside my mask. These soft and pliable 3D brackets help to keep the front of my mask away from my mouth so that I feel that I can breath more easily. I am home most of the time and will only use these brackets when I am out running errands and need to wear a mask, so I cannot comment on what happens when the brackets are worn for hours on end. There are hooks on each side of the bracket that allow for the bracket to be attached to the folds of an accordion style mask. I have an Olsen mask which doesn't have folds that the bracket can latch onto. I am going to sew a couple of eyes (as in a hook and eye closures..like the kind one uses on skirts) on the inside of my cloth mask so that the hooks on the side of the bracket can be used to keep the bracket secure.

Basically, it\u2019s like ChapStick for eyeglasses, except instead of helping to lock in moisture, Nerdwax helps keep said glasses from sliding down your nose, which is rarely a good look.
While you might ask why don\u2019t you get eyeglasses that fit your face better, some people simply have noses that don\u2019t properly accommodate eyeglasses, no matter how well designed. While I usually don\u2019t have major slippage, my oldest daughter does. Even if your eyeglasses are well designed and your nose accommodating, over time, your eyeglasses, sun glasses, protective eye gear, etc., may still slip due to oil build-up, sweat, or even how your face might change subtly (e.g., swelling) throughout the day. So yeah, it\u2019s more or less a universal problem, which is probably why Nerdwax got the kind of traction (pun intended) that it did.
Nerdwax boasts of its all natural and certified organic ingredients in its beeswax-based formula. I\u2019m no believer in the purported benefits of organics myself, but I do care that a company takes pride in their ingredients, which this company clearly does.
Application is simple using the edge of the waxy stick to apply a little or a lot to the inside bridge of the eyeglasses, then putting said glasses on as usual. Depending upon how much you apply, your activity level, and the vagaries of your own skin, it should last about an hour to all day. In testing on my own glasses I got a little over an hour before I noticed some sliding, while my oldest daughter got a bit longer. As an extreme case, it didn\u2019t stop all of her slippage, but it certainly did help reduce it.
While you do notice the Nerdwax substance when it\u2019s applied to your eyeglasses, it\u2019s not particularly annoying or distracting, and certainly does offer the benefit of not having to fuss with your glasses, or others\u2019 glasses (much to her chagrin, I push my oldest daughter\u2019s glasses back up her nose all of the time), quite so much. It\u2019s clearly no miracle product, but it does work, albeit a bit too briefly versus how long I\u2019d really like it to. Re-application, at least, is trivial, and it\u2019s equally easy to wipe it right off if it doesn\u2019t dissolve naturally on its own (and, in general, while it\u2019s more or less just on the bridge of your nose, it\u2019s actually a good moisturizer). Considering one stick of Nerdwax is estimated to last six to eight months of use, it\u2019s definitely worth at least one purchase to see how well it works with the vagaries of your glasses, skin type, and activity level, and ultimately whether it will find a permanent home in your pocket or purse.

I've been converted 6 times and had two ablations. My blood pressure is sometimes high but not always. My electrophysiologist suggested taking magnesium but all types gave me diarrhea so that was a no go. My blood sugar has been inching up as well. I read Dr. Dean's Magnesium Miracle book some years ago but it wasn't until recently listening to her on YouTube that I understood her ReMag product so I decided to try it again. That, and my hubby broke his arm two months ago. (magnesium is the bone healer) I have been studying nutrition for 40 plus years and my husband and I eat very healthy similar to keto, our cholesterol is great and I take no other medication. I have managed my husband's diabetes for 20 years on diet plus one metformin. His sugars remain constant and healthy for his age. We eat from a home grown organic garden and almost no white foods (sugar, starch and grains) but we're not perfect. When I received the ReMag we began taking 5 drops in the morning in diluted juice with water. After a few weeks we went to 10 drops. After that my husband is up to 1/4 tsp daily. I have stayed at 10 drops. I began noticing that when I got into bed at night my heart beat was much calmer, slept thru 6 to 8 hours instead of waking up periodically and the anxiety in my solar plexus area was gone (I didn't know I had it until I started taking the ReMag). I'm hoping and pretty sure this is going to have a positive effect so I won't have a-fib like I have in the past. (As an aside, Vitamin D has put me in A-fib several times previously. And I learned that a magnesium deficiency can lower your Vit D levels. So I'm hoping my magnesium intake plus the sun will help my D levels go up) My husband's nightly leg cramps have gone away and his broken arm has healed in 8 weeks (doctor remarked from the X-rays how fast he was healing ( Hub is 81 and active). I have learned that taking Vitamin D causes your calcium levels to go higher in the bloodstream and calcium is what your heart uses for electricity and stimulation. That was an aha moment for me.....magnesium goes a long way in solving that problem.

Even though its recently become so popular, the herb has been used since ancient times for many different ailments. Its clinically shown to reduce high blood pressure. (So I wouldn't take double or triple doses, hoping for a quicker result.) The medical test that concerns me, was a peer reviewed study, that proved this herb increases testosterone levels, and brought about greater bone density, an increase in lean muscle mass, and fat loss. Other herbs claim this same benefit, like Tributus, however, Forskolin has been proven to accomplish this. (If you check Wikipedia, you can get linked to the test.) B-Nergetics FORSKOLIN has 250mg per serving, a standardized extract so you know you're getting an active ingredient that will produce a result. I've seen UToob videos claiming that their company has the only "real" Forskolin, and their proof that their product is real, is their price.....$40 a bottle. (If you pay less than that, its fake Forskolin they claimed. I'm sure people believe that too.) Forskolin isn't exactly rare, so of course it wouldn't need to cost that much.
Does it work to lose weight? People who take caffeine stimulants, or diuretics, will lose water weight quickly. In fact, you can lose 5 pounds overnight, if you don't mind an overactive bladder, and dehydration. But that isn't real weight loss. Most people are looking for fat loss, or to turn fat into muscle. This is at best a slow process, and if you can create a change of 3 pounds of fat into 3 pounds of muscle in a month, that's really great. It takes weight baring exercise, cardio, and proper high protein low carb diets to do this. FORSKOLIN will help the process. However, if you think you take a bottle of pills, and stick to a poor diet and low activity level, then wake up one day laying in a gooey puddle of 40 pounds of rendered fat that sweated thru your skin overnight, you're dreaming. My thoughts are that herbal treatments, restore a more youthful production of hormones in your body. That will allow your body to burn fat like a younger person, and build muscle like a younger person too. I used B-Nergtics MALE ENHANSEMENT supplement, with FORSKOLIN. I noticed an increase in my lifts, and less flabbiness on my body. Really noticeable results shouldn't be expected for at least 2-3 months. The slow, natural loss of weight seems to the weight that stays off. A proper diet and sustainable exercise plan makes much more sense, than crash diets and over training. I also noticed an increase in libido with this product. So I do believe it increases your hormones. I cant think of any other reason, since this spiked when I started to take FORSKOLIN and the MALE ENHANSEMENT.

This product has been INVALUABLE for those times I wake up 4-5 hours before the alarm in helping me get back to sleep without any side effects. I am almost out and will buy more. I will ALWAYS keep a bottle of this on my nightstand. And, it gives me pleasant dreams.
I am a chronic insomniac and a very tough cookie to crack in the sleep aid department. My favorite is plain old Benadryl but I wanted to try something natural, without that groggy feeling. Melatonin does NOT work for me. Does the opposite, keeps me awake. So, I was skeptical to try this but the reviews looked hopeful, and after researching the ingredients in this govivo \"Naturally Fall Asleep\" product-- I bought some.
My Experience: It works! Honestly, I was kind of shocked because natural products for sleep have never worked for me. Definitely relaxed me and put me out fairly fast but I didn't stay asleep. Woke up 3-4 hours later every time I took one. I was happy that it got me relaxed enough, naturally, to put me to sleep though, BIG PLUS. After some experimenting with \"Naturally Fall Asleep\" capsules, I decided that it is perfect to keep on the night stand for helping me relax and get back to sleep after waking up in the middle of the night, laying there awake worrying about the upcoming day, etc. That happened to me last night and after I took a capsule, I was back to sleep within 1/2 hour and woke up at my normal time with NO side effects whatsoever. Even helped my headache. 5 Stars for that!
Easily can replace that evening cocktail (and without the spike in your blood sugar that comes with said cocktail) to put you in a relaxed state. Passionflower and lemon balm together have been proven to reduce stress and anxiety. I had never heard of this combo until now and I think it is an important combo for natural health. Stress can kill ya!
INFORMATION THAT I FOUND TO BE VERY HELPFUL ---
Passionflower:
Passionflower is best for mild to moderate anxiety but can also be used for severe anxiety. It works by reducing muscle tension and headaches, calming the nerves, and leveling out mood swings. Two studies found passionflower to be just as effective as Xanax and other prescription anti-anxiety medications. While passionflower promotes calmness and relaxation, it can also be used as a sleep aid for insomnia, though it has shown to cause less drowsiness than standard anxiety medications.
Lemon balm:
Lemon balm is another widely used herb shown to help anxiety and other mood disorders. Lemon balm promotes mental clarity and boosts brain function all while reducing stress and anxiety. Together with theanine, lemon balm offers a proven antidote to everyday stresses by promoting a focused calm while remaining mentally razor sharp.
Overall, I am very pleased to have found this govivo natural product and am confident enough in this product to try their other products", "label": 1}

Pregnancy does many things to your body and my hair has suffered. Before pregnancy, my hair was full, soft and grew quickly to the middle of my back. During pregnancy, my hair continued to grow and was lush/full; then my son was born and my hair literally fell out in clumps (hormonal imbalance) until I had to cut it all off because there were literally bald spots on my head.
Now, finally, my hair has grown to shoulder length and stopped but is medium/thin without falling out anymore. Problem is that it no longer is growing fast or what seems like at all. I don't use chemicals and rarely use heat styling but do occasionally color my hair. It would be nice if my hair would grow long like before and I could get length back again.
These pills are not terribly big (semi small horse pills, if that makes sense) and taste absolutely horrible (smell pretty bad too). I had no trouble swallowing them, even though they are hard pills instead of capsules you can break apart.
I'm taking these as instructed, 2 in the morning with food and 2 again at night with food.
For me, if this supplement works to help my hair, skin, and nails be healthy again the terrible taste is worth it.
What I have noticed from the bottle is that these help support hormonal imbalance, which for me is a major concern after having my son (hope these help) and I have done research on some of the herbs included in this supplement (all good for hormonal balance and the body in general). Like I said, pregnancy does a number on your body and to finally be able to have a supplement that helps restore the hormones is a plus for me.
I will update in a few months with results. I've attached a picture of my hair as it is today and will come back in a few months with an updated picture.
9/9/17 *one month update*
It is a couple day shy of one month now because I have just reordered the 2nd bottle *taking 4 a day- 2 AM and 2 PM*
I've uploaded 4 more new pictures taken today. My hair is up, down and pulled back so you can see the results. I'm not sure if my hair has gained length or not but it is much softer, shinier and to me feels like it is healthier than before.
i have ordered a 2nd bottle and am taking 2 in the morning and 2 in the evening. The taste is still horrible but I don't notice much smell of these. I've gotten used to drinking them with a flavored beverage to distract from the awful taste. Overall I am happy with this product and will continue onto see the results as each month goes by. The first photo is one month ago *I think I'm wearing the same green shirt in all photos*, the other 4 are taken today.", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3435, "id": 73499, "interval": [600, 700], "len_words": 583, "len_tokens": 694, "text": "All my life I've struggled with my weight. I have a borderline thyroid issue & losing weight is an absolute battle for me.
I've gone on the carb counting, low fat eating plans & even cut out sugars, most processed foods & started an exercise regime. Still no weight loss. In fact, the more I tried to lose, the more weight I gained. The moment I would stop eating on a restricted eating plan the weight would come back double.
Well, here I am now telling everyone out there that this stuff works. I have been on diet pills, carb blockers, fat blockers... you name it. I've downed the shakes, tried the bars... Nothing worked for me like this product does.
I ordered this pack with the 2 shakers & starter pack of the powdered drink. I keep one shaker in my purse, and the other right next to the salt shaker at home. Everything I eat I sprinkle Sensa on. Be creative, sometimes you have to be. :) Stick to it, because if you don't sprinkle every time you will fall out of the habit.
Right away I noticed my appetite was shrinking. The very first weeks are hard, that I will tell you. I was hungry just an hour after eating & would again eat a little more (still sprinkling) and feel bad because I was still eating when this product said it would curb my appetite. I stuck to it. Day after day I continued to sprinkle Sensa on everything I ate & I do watch to make sure that I am not putting too much unhealthy food into my body.
The first week I lost 1 pound. Well, to some that is nothing, but to me when I have not been able to lose anything, but instead continue to gain weight one pound is great!
My advice is to stick to it. Sprinkle on everything. Watch what you eat, this won't work if you are stuffing your plate with junk food all day, sprinkling this on cake for breakfast & pizza, a burger & fries for lunch. Be sensible with what you feed your body. Get in the habit of always using this. I even ordered the chews to help out in between meals & really they are just the right amount of sweet to keep my sugar cravings down & they do work to curb appetite. The chews are super soft, easy to chew & not like taffy or anything that will stick to your mouth. The chocolate are like a tootsie roll & the berry ones are like a starburst. It also helps to drink the powdered mix in between meals, just to help fill you up & it offers a little bit of energy from the B complex vitamins in it.
Consider what diet pills have in them, and if you go on a restricted diet, you will put on all the weight back once you stop. This is so simple. Sprinkle it on what you eat, and that's it. No harsh chemicals, no side affects.
I'm learning now that it takes time to take the weight off & honestly I have 50 pounds to loose, and every time I get on that scale and see one more pound gone, instead of gained I am elated. No matter how slowly Sensa takes to help me take this weight off, I will continue to use this, because it is the only thing that has helped me lose weight.
Hopefully it will work for you too.", "label": 1}

After looking at a lot of protein powders from various different sources, eggs, meat, vegetables, milk, etc...I chose this one.
Below are the reasons:
-U.S. Based manufacturing and ingredient source, some powders are produced outside the U.S. and I have read there is metal or other contamination that can occur. Though I did not confirm this I assume U.S. based products would not have this issue or are safer than non-U.S. products.
-No filler ingredients, this is literally powder egg whites, which by default are a whole/natural protein source. Other powders have so much weird un-pronouncable "stuff" in them that you don't even know what your taking or how accurate the claims are.
-Non-GMO and no antibiotics used on chickens
-Eggs are cooked and not air dried (this prevents a avidin health issue), they are also pasteurized. This was confirmed by calling Julian Bakery's in California and an email to their nutritionist.
-No Soy, no Lactose! Large amounts of soy diets can cause hormonal issues for both men and women. Avoid soy proteins! I am also lactose intolerant so pure egg protein is great.
-Price per. protein comes to 30 g per. dollar., really good rate compared to other products out there.
-Low calories, basically you are taking in calories only for the protein not other fillers (e.g., sugars), it is about 4.32 calories per. protein
-The expiration dates are very reasonable, my two bags are about 2 year + to expiration.
-One con is that it does have a lot of salt (381 mg per serving), so if you are sensitive to it, or this is something you watch, it is something to keep in mind
One thing that stuck out is that the empty scoop weighs 9 grams and filled it is 34 grams, I am not sure why this is, maybe they are rounding the servings to a nice number. Technically each scoop has 25 grams (34 grams minus 9 grams) of powder, which i hopefully means it is 25 g of protein and additional 5 grams is just rounding since serving size is 30 grams.
***CORRECTION*** I realized that the scoop measures close to 30 grams, but its impossible to design something to pick up the exact amount of powder every single time, you will need a scale if you want exactly 30 grams every time, or just live with the fact you will scoop anywhere from 25-30 grams.
Overall good product and one of the best I found. The taste is so-so, that means it won't make you puke, but it isn't like ice-cream. It's just plain. I am in the middle of my first bag. Before protein powders became a fad and different brands/recipes went out on the market, in the 90's eggs were considered to be the best source of pure complete protein (i believe it still is). I am comfortable with putting this in my body over a long period of time on a daily basis due to its very very short ingredient list.
Please always consult a doctor before changing your diet or exercise program. I am not a doctor and nothing here is offered as health advice. Please as always verify everything once you receive the product or before you buy.", "label": 1}

This was purchased as I have joined the receding hairline club and now keep my head shaved. (I prefer to forgo the taboo come over hair style.)
For a while I was using an electric razor that I have to plug in. These work, however, I found myself constantly being irritated over the cord and finding myself limited to where I can use it. When I saw this product, I knew I had to try.
This razor caught my eye for several reasons.
-It is rechargeable and you can take it where ever you need to use it.
-It came with an entire setup. You receive a docking station, power cord, rechargeable razor, three trim guards (3mm, 6mm and 9mm), oil and a brush to keep your razor-blades clean and ready for use.
-Upon using, it did a great job and allowed me the same close shape as my past Wahl clipper. It was also quieter then my past razor but certainly not silent.
-The three trimmer attachments were also very nice. Most of the attachments you get with a razor are very cheap plastic, thin and or have sharp edges. These were thick, rounded and had no sharp edges. They attached easily and detached easily.
-There is a charging light on the side which comes on to let you know the razor is charging.
-You can use the included dock or simply charge directly without the dock.
-Comes with instructions-tips in the manual for cutting short hair and trimming.
Summary \u2013 This is a great razor, however, I had to limit my review to 3 stars for the following reasons.
-Feel this should come with an integrated auto off charging feature to ensure you do not overcharge. You should not charge this more than 8 hours or it can decrease battery life.
-My charging dock did not work correctly. I had to push and hold the razor down for it to charge while in the dock. If I do not hold the razor down, the pressure of the razor sitting on the dock was not enough to make an electrical connection. Feel it would benefit from a tighter hold or a locking mechanism.
Tips and notes.
-Fully discharge and then fully recharge the clipped every 6 months to maximize the battery.
-Keep the razor-blade clean and oiled after each use for maximum life and cutting performance.

This is not particularly difficult to assemble, but I was stumped when it came to filling the bottle. First, the was no apparent cap, you couldn\u2019t unscrew it because of the shape of the bottle (it wraps around the handle), and I could not pull it out. As it happens, pulling it out is exactly how you remove the bottle to fill it with a cleaning solution. The carton just says \"fit the bottle onto the mop\" but it was already fitted onto the mop handle when we got it, it was trying to figure out how to take it off without breaking it that was our issue. Pull hard, the bottle is held in place with an \"O\" ring. Make sure you have additional O rings (available at any hardware store for a few pennies), eventually this one will wear out.
The cleaning pad looks as if it was obviously not made for this mop; they are too wide and too long. But I believe that it was designed this way on purpose, perhaps to prevent the plastic pad holder from scratching furniture or walls.
This comes with three mop heads and a tool that hangs on the handle. I believe that that tool is for cleaning the mop heads.
What this is, essentially, is a giant water gun. You squeeze the trigger, and you spray water, like a toy gun. When we first put on the pad, we placed it with the excess in front; it turns out that this was a bad idea since the spray does not go very far, and most of it was absorbed by the pad. So we learned to place the pad so that the excess was in the back.
We have another one of these, not made as well and it only shipped with one pad and no pad cleaning tool. My original review said it was a toy and I was going to toss it in the garbage, but we soon found ourselves using it often and we now rely on it for quick cleanups. I was going to edit my review, but that product is no longer available. This brand and model is much improved over that one, and we will use it in one of our other homes. The aluminum tubes are thicker and denser, the plastic fittings are better and the mop heads (you get three, not 1) are softer and more absorbent. The mop head swivels up, down, to the side, etc. You will have no problem getting into spots and when hanging it up, you can make it very compact by swiveling the head.
For an insanely cheap \"Swiffer\" type cleaner, this is really a very good product. We just put some cleaning solution in the bottle and you never need to worry about the battery being charged. Sometimes, simpler is better.
I'm rating this 5 stars because of what it is. It's certainly not a Swiffer or other more costly product, but for what this costs, it's an excellent value. Don't be a jerk and judge it out of the box (like I was with the first model), give it some time and I think you'll really enjoy having this around.

I recently got a travel irrigator which I loved and did not think it could be topped but, while I wouldn\u2019t say that this tops it, I\u2019d say it\u2019s comparable but different.
The key feature(s) to this unit is that it combines irrigation with brushing and periodontal care (more on that later) in one very small product, the size of a standard electric toothbrush. The other product that I like is single-purpose, just irrigation. Unlike this unit, it does not have the capability to brush or be used as a periodontal pick. On the other hand, that unit is stronger and includes a built-in camera for checking your work as well as UV lighting to sterilize the tips and water reservoir. While both are great, I think that on my shorter trips I will take this, and when I am on a longer trip and have more luggage room, I\u2019ll take the other (which means also taking my toothbrush).
This product draws the water from whatever reservoir you use so it can be an 8 oz cup or a gallon jug. How much water you use is up to you. The other unit has a relatively small reservoir and I usually need to refill it once in order to get a good cleaning. This product knows when you choose an irrigation tip or the toothbrush or periodontal tip and the options on the handle change accordingly. On the brush and the periodontal tip, your choices are High or Low and when you use the irrigator you have the choice of Normal, Soft, Pulse, and DIY.
As mentioned, the irrigator is not quite as strong as my other portable, but it is certainly strong enough.
The toothbrush has the High and Low settings, no timer as my toothbrush has, and the periodontal tip is also high and low.
A word about the periodontal tip; it works, and it works well. It will remove plaque quickly and effectively. However, I don\u2019t necessarily recommend that you use it if you do not have a strong and steady hand; this can rip the hell out of your gums if you slip and with the vibration, that\u2019s a very good possibility. If you are able to control it, it\u2019s something I\u2019ve not seen on other units and it\u2019s great. But it can also be dangerous; use it with caution.
Although it looks short in some of the pictures, the hose that you clip onto any reservoir is long enough to allow you to move around as you floss.
This also comes with a soft carrying bag to carry the tips and hose with you.
If I had received this before or when I received the other unit (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09KLM695X - SORRY, as of 1/1/2022 this product is no longer available), I would have named them both \u201c2021 products of the year\u201d. Which you choose will be dictated by your priorities but they are both great products.

I'm a black woman and about 5 mo ago I decided to stop using chemicals in my hair (had a body wave). As you can imagine, my hair was getting very hard to comb through as the new growth really started to kick in. I had tried a flat iron (for the first time) a few days ago and it was soooo time-consuming and I did not like the results. My hair is VERY thick and I thought my arm would fall off so I did it kind of half-assed. With that experience I knew I would probably never use the thing again. Anyway, I plugged up the brush and it heated very quickly, in moments it was ready. I put it on 150C starting out. I increased to 160 since it seemed to work better on a higher setting for my hair.
Now, I have seen bad reviews on here saying how it didn't work at all or not that well. I am wondering if these people had the setting up high enough. Also, if the temperature was high enough, how were you brushing it through your hair? The key is to SLOWLY brush your hair. You also cannot use it like a regular brush, meaning you should do a section at a time and use one hand to hold the hair and give it some tension as you brush through it. That's what I did, anyway. It's no different a concept than using a hot comb (only much safer and much more unlikely you will burn your ear off lol).
So, as far as the actual product goes, it's great. It does what it says it will do, assuming you are using it properly. I honestly don't know how I have lived without this in my life for so long. My only gripe (which, I felt, wasn't reason to lose any stars) is the placement of the on/off and temperature buttons. It is a very inconvenient place and you WILL accidentally hit the buttons while you are brushing your hair. It's just not a good place to put the controls. I feel it should be further down on the handle and perhaps on the under side of it, as opposed to the side of the handle or the back. The user manual also leaves a little bit to be desired. I doubt a native English speaker wrote it. You will get the gist of what's going on though. Even though the controls are in Celsius, you can change it to Fahrenheit. Just don't ask me how this is accomplished because it is not in the manual. The change was triggered by my numerous, accidental, button presses toggling between C and F and I didn't pay attention to what was actually initiating the change. One of the previous reviewers said there is a way to lock the controls by pressing power so many times but left out how many times lol... I may update my review if I play with it to actually unlock this hidden power.

My pillowcases are mulberry silk, which I've been told is good for our skin (doesn't absorb the moisturizer we just put on, doesn't crease the face as bad as other materials, etc). So when I was offered silk sleep masks I thought, well that's going to be better than the cotton one I have. I often go to sleep with the tv on in the background as white noise and though I have the backlight turned way down sometimes the light annoys me. I also like to have a little pressure sometimes on the eyes but nothing covering the rest of my face- a sleep mask fits these purposes.
I was offered a set of 2 masks, one purple (on the outside, \"inside\" it is black) and one all black. The set also comes with a company information card and a set of your typical orange foam earplugs (which are just a little freebie but are not really part of this review other than I'm mentioning them).
These are beautiful masks. Some have pointed out for them they are a little small. At the widest point across the mask it is 8\" and the widest point along the eye covers is 4\". It is perfect for me, hits me just 1/3 into my temple area, just past my cheekbones and covers 2/3 of my forehead- and I can adjust that accordingly. So if there's any question about its size, take a quick measurement with a flexible ruler or tailor's tape. I find that sometimes sleep masks are entirely too big, I'd say this is the best size I've personally come across. It entirely blocks out the light without covering the whole top of my face. The silk is sooooo smooth. I can see the approx 1\" closure they used to put in the stuffing but the piping and cushion were excellently done. I don't feel any awkward bumps in the filling. What I especially love about this particular mask is NO VELCRO. So many of the masks I've had or been given have been made with that infuriating material that just does not work well in a sleep mask. This adjustable slide was easy to move and fit my face right- and the elastic has just the right amount of give and doesn't seem flimsy- so now I don't have to keep opening and closing the strap to get it to fit every time I wear it. It will also not catch my hair. These are at a very good pricepoint and feel and perform like a nice luxury item so they are a good value.
The masks did not come with washing instructions, but I'd suggest handwashing by themselves with gentle detergent and lay out flat to dry. Use a steamer and not an iron if that's necessary, but I don't forsee that being an issue. The card that the masks came with does promise quality, and a quick answer if there is any question- also says they have a \"lifetime warranty\". Though I have not needed to contact the company for any reason- I have yet to be disappointed with things I've purchased on Amazon that have these kinds of cards with them. I think this set would make an excellent gift for his/hers. Having used my mask for a week I have absolutely enjoyed it so far.", "label": 1}

Ran out of bandages over time.
Long story but my dog likes to keep me company in my workshop - I had taken the side off of my cabinet saw to clean it - I was cutting something and he jumped up in there to catch the sawdust coming out from under the blade. The blade hit him just at the border of the soft nose tissue cutting his nose and left lip leaving his nose and lip hanging by about 1/4\" of nose tissue.
After a nasty divorce I am not currently working and money is very tight. It was $2,500 just to get him in the door to the emergency vet and they always seem to get the bill even higher with anesthesia, observation, medications.
-so-it killed me but we just could not afford to use the vet!
We irrigated the wound thoroughly and I managed to throw just 4 sutures to hold the nose in place and stop most of the bleeding. Put the cone of shame on him but he still went straight outside and rubbed his nose in the dirt, contaminating the wound and dislodging one of the sutures.
I put him on antibiotics (clindamycin) and was thrilled to find that I could buy this calcium alginate powder. We sprinkled it on his wound twice a day. It forms a clear jelly like substance. His nose healed within a weak to a pink scar - now after about 3 weeks all of the black pigment is back.
Since that time I have experimented around with the powder. My wife was putting the cut bases of Roman Lettuce in water - something she saw on pinterest - it grows a few small leaves then dies. Just for kicks I dipped the bottom of one of the lettuce bases in the calcium alginate powder. That lettuce base grew roots and started to grow. If it were winter - here in Florida - I could have taken it outside and planted it.
It was too hot outside to grow it and inside it bolted immediately while still in the water - but she has been doing this intermittently for years and I have never seen a single one take root.
So my experience with calcium alginate is in wound healing. Years ago we had a Mare gallop square into a barbed wire fence. There was over a 12\" gash across her chest. It was my sisters Arabian I was fostering - still am 9 years later. Again no vet, not even a suture, just a big slab of swollen skin hanging down her chest. Went through rolls and rolls of Coban trying to create a bandage but rarely stayed in place. Essentially all I could do was use the calcium alginate - this was the 4x4 bandage form of it but same stuff. It took some time, but the wound healed so well you cannot even see a scar.", "label": 1}

After about 4 sessions 1 per day my height increased 1/2" and put me back at the same height I was in my 20's. Now I am into my late 40's and I have always had lower back issues especially when my weight is over 230 lbs. This machine will do many great things but I will mention just two. The first is that it will help rebuild your discs by decompressing your back and heating up your discs. Infrared heat penetrates about 2" into your body which will take care of the discs. The second is that by massaging your back muscles it will straighten your back by making the muscles more elastic. You won't get this powerful massage from your massage therapist. The first massage will be painful but you get used to it after the 3rd massage. It won't replace your massage therapist either because this machine only takes care of your back. The lower rollers work your legs but are not as effective as the upper rollers. Your massage therapist will do a better job on the legs.
QUALITY: The bed feet are heavy and strong. The bed frame is made of welded steel tubing. The bed foam is stiff so it can handle heavy individuals. Everything looks and feels of good quality. The bed should handle people up to 6'-5". I am 6', but it can easily handle someone taller. The frame can take really heavy people without any problems. The 350 lb limit might come from the roller system not from the frame.
SPACE REQUIREMENT: The bed needs about 3 feet by 7 feet of space so you can use it and access it. A 4 feet wide space would be even better. You need a regular electrical outlet nearby to plug it in.
ASSEMBLY: It takes 2-3 hours to assemble it. If your back is in bad shape a second person to help you will make it easier. It comes with a users manual and assembly instructions.
SHIPPING: The massage table came in a wooden heavy pallet in 2 boxes and they called me to schedule the drop-off day. 9-5 drop-off window. You can undo the pallet wrapping and take one box at a time using a hand cart or two people. You can also pick it up and lift it if you are a strong person. I recommend help especially if your back is not in good shape. This table is a keeper so I can tune up my back every week.
SKEPTICAL? I was having a hard time dishing out more than a grand for something that I might have to return and pay to ship it back but I noticed that there are not that many used tables for sale. This means that people keep them because they work. I am keeping mine because everyone in my family of 6 is using it. The kids love it.", "label": 1}

I wasn\u2019t given anything for this review and is just my honest experience. I gave this 5 stars, because it works for me. It would be a better value, if it was a 30 day supply, instead of a 20 days. I still give it 5 stars, because I have insomnia and it helps. I didn\u2019t expect too much, but have a subscription for freshcaps Thrive 6, which has helped with my memory, which has been foggy. So I figured it was worth a try and wasn\u2019t disappointed.
The first time I tried this, it definitely relaxed me and I actually slept 10-12 hours that night. I rarely sleep 6 hours and it was a complete shock. I didn\u2019t wake multiple times. Although, I hadn\u2019t slept well the nights prior and was why I ordered, but that is nothing new. Amazon was able to get it here quicker. So I went with them to try this product. I expected sleep, but not that much, but not complaining. I actually woke up refreshed. It hasn\u2019t happened like that since, but I have been sleeping better. I do take other supplements with mushrooms, changed my diet and am more active. All of which could be factors that helped too, but I hadn\u2019t had sleep like that in a long time. The only new thing was this product. The taste isn\u2019t bad at all. I figured I would hate the taste, but wanted the benefits. I was able to get both. I mix it with 8oz of almond milk in a small blender. I put it in a blender, because it can clump up, but not with the blender. I have added mud/wtr with it a few times. It is definitely worth a try, even with the price. I will order again, but won\u2019t take daily. I would recommend it for a stressful day, when you just need to relax and unwind. I already take many of the mushrooms in it, but the magnesium and botanicals definitely helped.
Mushrooms are high in antioxidants and help. If you want a calming mushroom that has a 60 day supply and is cheaper. I would recommend their Reshi caps or you can buy canister and make it like you would this product. The bottles and canisters come with a 60 day supply(60 capsules or a canister with 60 grams). The thrive 6 has Reishi, lions mane, Chaga and 3 other mushrooms. You may want to buy off amazon for a one time try. If you buy directly off the site. You will pay more, unless you subscribe. You can cancel anytime, but prime has a quicker delivery.
I wrote this review to help others decide. You may not have the same reaction as I did with sleep, but everything in it helps aid relaxation. I don\u2019t like taking melatonin and this is a great alternative. Everything in it has benefits. Just do some research on the ingredients. Look into the benefits of mushrooms, because they have helped me. Hoping this can help others decide if it is right for them. The Freshcap site has more information on these mushrooms and this product. You may want to check their site for benefits of each one before you order. I hope this helped.", "label": 1}

However, not only laser copiers do bring ozone into our direct vicinity and you may remember the associated issues with that. The EPA even clarifies that: \"Manufacturers and vendors of ozone devices often use misleading terms to describe ozone. Terms such as \"energized oxygen\" or \"pure air\" suggest that ozone is a healthy kind of oxygen. Ozone is a toxic gas with vastly different chemical and toxicological properties from oxygen.\"
CAUTION: The EPA notes that direct (excessive) exposure can lead to (a) decreases in lung function, (b) aggravation of asthma, (c) throat irritation and cough, (d) chest pain and shortness of breath, (e) inflammation of lung tissue, and (f) higher susceptibility to respiratory infection. You're free to draw a connection to the current pandemic and its respiratory nature. The car deodorizer even states for humans or pets not to be in the car when using. (Thanks to the EPA statement above, now you know why.) Make sure to execute caution when using this to prevent issues, but it's not just the ozone itself that can be harmful, but also the potentially toxic byproducts of the Ozone reacting with the contamination. That is one reason why institutions like the EPA advise against the use ozone generators.
Anyway, with that out of the way, the design is both elegant and a bit odd. By the latter I mean that even the manufacturer insists on people or pets to not be in the room while using, yet the only power supply is a car adapter and the recommendation is to keep the car running to provide power during cleaning. Environmentalists certainly cringe by now, but the included battery works just fine. It's just that it has to reside in the car when charging. It would be better to have a wall adapter charging the device. That way, the use in rooms (i.e., restroom) would be easier, and the occasional use in a car possible with the battery.
The device turns on with some drama as the countdown counter gives you 10 seconds to leave the area. the Ozone dispensing lasts for 20 minutes, while another 70 minutes should be allowed for the decomposing (chemical reaction) of the contaminants. That translates into 90 minutes of keeping the space unoccupied. Follow with a thorough airing to ensure the remaining ozone is below danger levels.
A side note on the design. It looks nice, and the \"wood\" ornamentation is really unnecessary. Personally, I find it distracting and does not really add to the looks in a good way. Meanwhile, my concerns are with the usage and potential health hazards. That's amplified by the power supply described above.
Overall, you may remember the smell when using a laser copier extensively. That's a small preview of what this device does when used without proper ventilation. It's not exactly pleasant, but after letting the ozone escape some odors are indeed removed. Note that Ozone attacks rubber and plants, so you really need to use it with caution in addition to the concerns above. But if you do, the occasional use may get some odor relief.", "label": 1}

This review is for the Sturish Bath Fizzies - DIY STEM Science Kit. Having recently spent numerous days/hours of indoor time with kids who were getting bored over the summer break, this turned out to be a great way to spend a few hours learning, making, and finally trying a bath time fun favorite. That said, when I saw this offering and the way in which it was packaged, produced, and delivered, I just knew it was worth trying with my kid.
First of all, I can\u2019t say enough great things about how this kit is packaged, delivered and presented. The whole presentation is appealing and describes science & fun which draws attention! The kit is packaged in a strong and durable presentation box with the branding, pictures, and wording that gives this product some good shelf presence. Inside the box is everything you need to make these bath fizzies; 4 molds, baking soda, 3 colors (Red, Blue, and Yellow), corn starch, bath salt, and 3 essential oils (Lavender, Appleseed, and Grapeseed), spoons, pipette, and an instruction manual \u2013 nothing else needed except for eager kids and adults to get started!
Inside the box you get everything you need to make these bath fizzies (as described in the product description). Making these is supposed to be an exact science where you need to measure, weigh, calculate, clock-watch and have patience! This is a tall order for kids let alone adults to follow; however, there\u2019s no need to be too scientific here! The ingredients are all provided and, just follow the instructions. Everything is well labelled and easy to use, you just need to bring some creativity, imagination, and curiosity on how this works. There\u2019s enough to get multiple uses out of this box, so you can spread out the activities across a few days/weeks. The quality is decent, and the end product works great in the bath, you can\u2019t go wrong.
Overall, as someone who\u2019s got a kid who loves to ask many questions and is in to science, this was an excellent find! It gave me a good activity to spend some quality time together while doing something that he\u2019s passionate about! This was a few hours of good fun\u2026. for the both of us!
If you\u2019re looking to gift this to someone who has kids that enjoy this kind of activity \u2013 this is it! You can make it by yourself, with kids, or with a special friend. It\u2019s reasonably priced and has everything you need for a successful and fun experience. Whether you get this for yourself, or as a gifting option - I recommend this.

{"sid": 3447, "id": 86824, "interval": [600, 700], "len_words": 514, "len_tokens": 640, "text": "This is an excellent entrant in the IPL market genre. It follows an often used design form, that allows for comfortable handling and application. The operation is deceptively easy, just keep in mind that the light energy is powerful, so use it cautiously and wear the provided protective eyewear.
IPL is Intense Pulses of Light, that is a treatment primarily for 'permanent' hair removal, and also in certain scenarios for skin treatments. In this case, the product is designed for treating hair follicles with the eventual goal of permanent cessation of hair growth. \"IPL treatment is administered through a handheld flashgun device that emits pulses of light, which are absorbed by the melanin pigment in hairs. The light turns to heat that is absorbed by the skin, resulting in damage to the follicle effectively removing hair and slowing down regrowth significantly.\"(online reference). After repeated treatment sessions, the regrowth cycles is disrupted to the point of no further hair renewal.
To be effective, the subject needs to qualify according to skin color and hair color. Basically, light skin color and darker hair color are the ideal combination. This is due to the intense light affecting melanin, the pigment. So, the contrast is necessary, and you want the light energy to affect hair pigmentation, and not skin, obviously.
Operation of this device is straightforward. Plug in the AC power adapter cord. A long press of the power button (with the power icon) will activate the IPL device. The fan will start, and you'll see the display showing the number of flashes remaining, the intensity level (default is set at lowest), fan icon. The display will also indicate if it's in auto or manual mode.
The user manual does a very poor job (actually non-existent) at explaining the manual mode. In this mode, the user actually triggers the flash. The significant other tells me that everyone uses the automatic mode because it's easier and faster. Anyway, the large button above the power button switches between automatic and manual mode.
In automatic mode, when you press the flash window on skin it will trigger the flash. Then you lift it and move it to the next, adjacent target. Lower the flash window, touching the skin, which automatically triggers the flash again. This process is continued until you cover the targeted hair region.
They warn against overlapping and missing areas. I wondered how a user can ensure that there is no overlap and avoid missing areas, when the flash window is not flush with an edge. This is not an issue specific to this product, but to IPL devices in general.
I like the overall presentation and quality of the product. Besides the IPL device, it includes a generic straight edge razor, protective eye wear, AC power adapter/cord and user manual. While the user manual is adequate, I feel it could have been better, more informative.
Based on initial impressions and observations, this is a very competent and capable IPL device. It is exactly as depicted and described in the product details. It earns a 4.5 - 4.75 star rating, with a high level recommendation.", "label": 1}

While I'm not personally concerned about lack of calcium intake, some competing products include it because D3 and K2 help ensure that it's properly deposited in bones. To compensate for this lack of K2, I had been consuming separate products, such as Complete K from a Norwegian label called Supersmart, which provides both K1 and K2. The math to determine the appropriate ratio of D3:K2 is simple, but it's convenient to consume both from the same product. The standard dosage of D3 is 125mcg (5000 IU), and the standard dosage of K2 is 100mcg. Apart from the absence of K2, the only thing I don't like about this Go Healthy product is 125mcg not being evenly divisible by the 50mcg provided by each tablet. You would need to either break down some tablets in half to provide incremental 25mcg (1000 IU) dosages, or consume a minimum of 5 tablets so that the total of 250mcg is evenly divisible by 125mcg, but this would lead to a 10000 IU megadose you likely won't want to consume on a daily basis. While I have an usually strong immune system relative to other people (other people have expressed anger at me that I don't get sick when I'm surrounded by sick people), I know when I feel even a slight tinge of illness that I need to grab the Colostrum, Vitamin D3+K2, and Vitamin C in order to prevent too much negative impact. I also grab this combination of supplements when I feel especially tired due to a string of long work days, because I know I'm more vulnerable to illness. Don't pay attention to physicians who state that megadoses of D3 shouldn't be taken (some physicians think that the standard 125mcg dosage of D3 is already megadose status). While you should always know your specific body before taking megadoses, physicians generally don't know what they're talking about because the vast majority of them don't understand supplements, generally depending on pharmaceutical companies to train them to prescribe only patented medications. All of this said, I've had a good experience with Go Healthy whole food supplements so far, including the multivitamins it offers for men and women (there are very few differences between these two products). I'm still on my journey to better understand the differences between synthetic \"isolate\" vitamins versus whole food vitamins, but the sudden unavailability of Twinlab Daily One Caps multivitamin I had been taking up until several years ago actually worked out in my favor because it caused me to start taking a closer look at supplement facts. The D3 provided by this product is sourced solely from organic algae.", "label": 1}

All I can say is WOW! I love this gooey, gelatin like stuff! I will admit, it is a pain in the rear end to mix. The first time I tried mixing it, it was an epic fail. I had to keep scraping spoon to spoon just to get it into the water so I could drink it. It wasn't really going over that well being added to liquids to drink so I started adding it to my yogurt on a daily basis. That worked out perfect! Not only did I not taste anything, it went down smoothly and I have not had any internal issues.
In terms of using it for beauty products, I have since learned that the measuring spoon used has to be stainless, and it must be completely dry. I tried using a plastic measuring spoon a couple of times and the powder just stuck to the spoon, causing me to have to dig it out each time. Now that I use a fully dried stainless steel measuring spoon, I can easily drop the powder down into the distilled water with ease. Shaking it vigorously afterwards mixes it up pretty good.

Then the body fat percentage calculator, which had always been a little wonky, on my old scale died and I decided to take the Aria plunge.
Pros:
- Reads quickly
- Accurate (reads the same as the mechanical scale at my hospital)
- Consistent (gives the same reading when re-checked in a short span of time)
- Attractive design
- Durable and easy to maintain
- Motivating and simple to use
Cons:
- Price
- Does require some setup
- Privacy concern- will store readings for anyone who uses it, not just the programmed users
I found the setup pretty straightforward, but it does require the user to be comfortable with using consumer electronics and following instructions. If you can order on Amazon, you can probably handle this setup, but, say, my 88-year-old grandma probably would find it confusing. Once setup, it's good to go, however- the user simply steps on the scale and the reading is displayed, then sent to the Fitbit account wirelessly.
The scale will store readings for anyone who uses it. These are easy to delete from your Fitbit account, but guests and non-Fitbit family members may not be excited to find that using a scale in the privacy of the bathroom has broadcast their weight and body fat % to others.
The quality of the product is excellent- we had a fairly high-end scale to begin with, but it didn't compare to the design or execution of the Aria. I also love that it's easy to wipe clean- it looks so much nicer on a daily basis than our old scale, which had rubber components, did. I also love that it's so straightforward to use- some scales I've owned required knowing which buttons to press to access different functions, or required the user to step on them lightly and then wait before stepping all the way on, or required the user to select their own profile before use. With Aria, you literally just step on and off.
Finally, I love that it's so motivating. I'm sure this varies from person to person, but if you respond well to using a Fitbit in the first place, I think there's a good chance you'll respond well to the Aria. I like seeing the data pile up in my account, and making a daily weigh-in part of my routine keeps me conscious of my movement and food choices throughout the day. I only intermittently tracked my weight and body fat before the Aria, but now track it every day that I'm home, and I'm finding the data useful and the daily practice keeps me mindful. And you get new badges, which, again, not everyone may find worthwhile, but I find motivating.
Overall, I am extremely pleased with my Aria after one month. I've seen slow but steady weight loss and I plan to keep making it part of my routine for the future. It's not cheap, but if like me, you're a dedicated Fitbit user who struggled to stay consistent with weigh-ins, it may well be worth the price.", "label": 1}

Anyway, I have been into pore vacuums for a while because besides scrubs, it had to be some way to get out those stubborn black heads around my upper cheeks and nose. Rather than covering them up with makeup, I have tried a measure of different devices. This one sadly isn\u2019t that much better.
This unlike others I have tried, does have a water tank built in for storing water for cleaning out your pores during suction. So, it has an ample design that is very unique. Not super large, but not super small either. It even has an illuminating blue light during use. It\u2019s a very beautiful device.
What I immediately didn\u2019t like about this product is, ITS SUPER HARD TO OPEN. It took me quite a while to try to bust it open because of its tightness. I came to look back at the product page for instructions to do so, because it didn\u2019t have any. But, ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS GRIP THE DEVICE AND TURN IT RIGHT UNTIL IT OPENS.
It popped opened after a while of harsh effort. Thank god, I didn\u2019t break it immediately, BUT after the tank came off, it is super hard to keep it back in place without it trying to FALL OFF DURING USE. Nothing is broken about it\u2019s sealing, but the water makes the tank so slippery, I have to hold it towards the middle not to have water spilling over myself during use. First, the tank wouldn\u2019t come off, now it plainly won\u2019t stay connected properly.
Though, that\u2019s one part of this equation. This device comes with five heads, two silicone, and three plastic. It also has three modes, oiliness, dryness, and neutral. It sucks, it really does.
I feeling like it\u2019s sucking/vacuuming is very weak, though. I have to turn it up to oiliness just to feel any real suction. Even then, it doesn\u2019t feel as targeted as it should be. It goes between being harsh to gentle which is inconsistent. I don\u2019t feel like this cleans as properly as it should. I didn\u2019t get the results I would expect in the least from this.
Last but not least, there\u2019s no indicators what so ever. Every time I have to put back on the tank. There is no indicator saying where what side anything should be on. It only shows the water dropping on the opposite side. Even my water pik has indicators (dirty water/clean water) for what each side does. It seems however you put it on is just how the tank is gonna be. Which is super awkward.
I think if you like gentle sucking, this would be okay. But, it\u2019s still a bit flimsy and it leaks even straight up. So, there are clearly some issues they still need to work out about this product.

These are so comfortable & they actually keep the cloth away from your mouth & nose area so lipstick doesn't get smeared everywhere making it so much easier to breath without the mask getting sucked into your nose & mouth! Several of us work in management at healthcare facilities & have long shifts during which these exceeded our expectations. Another key thing we noticed is that it's easier to talk to people & have them understand you when compared to wearing a mask without the frame!
Update 1/12/2021: I officially love these even more as I have become lazy & started washing these in a linen bag in the washer with my masks in hot water & then hanging them to dry, lol. I ended up buying more so I had enough to allow one frame for each day of the week for each household member with a few extra for washing days. Basically once a week I throw a few large linen bags in the wash with them & our masks instead of having to wash them all every day or every few days all week long & they are just as good as the day I bought them!
CONS: The only con we found is that it is almost impossible to slip the mask down under your chin without touching the parts of the mask you aren't suppose to. We solved this by just temporarily unhooking & dropping one ear loop so that it left the mask hanging off of one ear if needed & then all we had to do was use the ear loop to reapply without touching the yucky face of the mask.
UPDATE: 8/29/2020
We are expirementing with attachment & so far like loosely tacking the mask frame on with several stitches, after removing the tab portion that sticks up a bit, for a more permanent application on masks with no pockets. For a less permanent attachment we have been using small cloth or elastic loops shaped like a U attached at 2 points in the appropriate place marked on the mask after mock fitting. The last method is better for washing, removal & possible adjustments but it is also a bit more involved in creating the pockets / loops. Both methods work for an entire shift & they are still comfortable sitting on the face. It will be your personal preference as to whether or not you want the frame covered with cloth in a 2 layer pocket style mask or attached or not etc.
Overall this is a good product thus far. I will update if things change. Please see pics with my review for reference. I did receive this product for free but that has in no way influenced my review. I depend on honest reviews to buy the best products I can within my budget & I do not have the time or money to deal with inferior products as I am sure you don't! I personally choose, test & use all products I receive & try to be thorough in my reviews. (Sometimes my entire household tests items as well.)

It has a way to adjust the volume but even the lowest doesn't create a soft sound that you could let drift in to the background. I ran it in a room with an Ac unit (which runs at 90 decibels when you are right in front of it) just to see which was louder. You can hear it over the Ac unit when I'm sitting in front of the Ac unit and the sound machine is in the opposite corner. I was looking for something like the Ac unit fan but quieter to make soft white noise for my baby when we don't need the Ac unit to run. Well this is louder then that so it wakes her. The white noise sound sounds like old analogue tv static not soft fan sounds. It's terrible. I even tried putting it on the other side of her door, no still sounds terrible and too load. To top it off you have to use a forward and back button to even try the other sounds, which are at different volume levels so cycling throug them while trying to put a baby to bed is counter productive. Last thing, even if you try the nice soft rain track it's got some lovely rolling thunder to wake you dosing infant. Even the lullabies are too load. Very disappointed this thing.Returning. Replacing it with a small 10 in fan, which make a nice soft sounds to which my infant has now passed out to after being woken up by and not being able fall asleep with this dbpower machine.
Waste my time and money on the one.
Update: I have been contacted by the seller/maker. They share that they did a lot of research before making this product. They report that many people wanted a louder machine to fully block out external noise. That's fine and well, but it's also advertised for babies room with special tracks just for baby. So that said, I still stand by my original statement that its too loud for that purpose. Most recommendations say in babies rooms prolonged noises should not exceed 60 decibels. This is over that. After exchanging emails with the company, sighed by Bella (who ever that is within the company , no title or position was listed) I do believe this company wants to make a quality machine and make customers happy. My return was a breeze and money returned with in 24 hours of the item being picked up with no further action needed by me. They also offered me a free item as an apology (and a request to update my negative review) but I didn't take it. I didn't write my review to get free things, just to express how my expense was compare to my expectation based on the item description. They asked me if I will test the next generation which I will. I'd love to see a version that meets the original claim.(and maybe a few other improvements) It could be a great machine if it's improved. I'll hold out hope for that. I'd really like to have a better version of this. I really wanted to like it.", "label": 0}

I had held off on reviewing this product so I could try this product for some time. While I do still suffer from joint pain, the symptoms have lessened over time.
On the positive side, my hair has become very healthy, along with my skin and my nails. My nails are incredibly strong and grow at an amazing rate. I also experience little to no face breakouts
This combination/ MSM, Glucosamine and Chondroitin is great for arthritis sufferers
These are the benefits
1. Improves skin health and complexion
MSM is necessary for collagen production. Sagging skin and wrinkles, as well as dry, cracked skin are all developed through a loss of collagen. MSM works together with Vitamin C to build new, healthy tissues. MSM can normalize collagen formation and radically improve skin health.
2. Improves flexibility
Research has shown that MSM is highly effective in improving joint flexibility. Additionally, it helps to produce flexible skin and muscle tissue. This leads to an increase in overall flexibility due to a restoration of the \u201cjuiciness\u201d in the tissues.
3. Detoxifies the body
One of the most important features of MSM is that it makes your cells more permeable. This means that it allows toxins and metabolic waste products to easily be moved out of the cells, while essential nutrients and hydration can be moved in. It\u2019s a calcium phosphate dissolver, so it has a remarkable ability to break up the bad calcium that\u2019s at the root of degenerative diseases.
4. Strengthens hair and nails
Collagen and keratin and both critical for the production of healthy hair and nails. MSM is a bonafide \u201cbeauty mineral\u201d that provides the sulfur needed to produce collagen and keratin. It\u2019s also highly noted to contribute to exceptional strength and thickness of the hair and nails, which can be noticed in just a couple weeks of consistent use.
5. Accelerates healing
Lactic acid and other byproducts cause pain and soreness in the body. MSM increases the ability of the body to eliminate waste products at the cellular level. This speeds recovery and frees up more energy for rebuilding.
6. Naturally Increases energy
Due to the increased permeability of the cells, less energy is required to deal with the accumulation of toxins. This results in more energy being redirected towards activity and necessary healing. Digestion is the biggest energy requirement of the body (Approximately 70-80% of your energy is spent on digestion each day). MSM increases the absorption of nutrients so that the energy expenditure on digestion is vastly reduced.
7. Anti-inflammatory
MSM is a powerful anti-inflammatory due to its ability to allow metabolic wastes to be removed from the cells. Excess weight on the body is actually inflammation. The cells of the body are chronically inflamed and retaining the byproducts of metabolic processes. Sulfur needs to be present In order for these toxins and wastes to be removed from the body. When these byproducts can be removed from the system, then the cells can also dispose of excess fluids that were being stored as a buffer. What results is a natural and effective reduction in unwanted weight.", "label": 1}

Hypomagnesemia is associated with an increased incidence of diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, mortality rate from CAD and all causes. Magnesium supplementation improves myocardial metabolism, inhibits calcium accumulation and myocardial cell death; it improves vascular tone, peripheral vascular resistance, afterload and cardiac output, reduces cardiac arrhythmias and improves lipid metabolism. Magnesium also reduces vulnerability to oxygen-derived free radicals, improves human endothelial function and inhibits platelet function, including platelet aggregation and adhesion, which potentially gives magnesium physiologic and natural effects similar to adenosine-diphosphate inhibitors such as clopidogrel. The data regarding its use in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is conflicting. Although some previous, relatively small randomized clinical trials demonstrated a remarkable reduction in mortality when administered to relatively high risk AMI patients, two recently published large-scale randomized clinical trials (the Fourth International Study of Infarct Survival and Magnesium in Coronaries) failed to show any advantage of intravenous magnesium over placebo. Nevertheless, there are theoretical potential benefits of magnesium supplementation as a cardioprotective agent in CAD patients, as well as promising results from previous work in animal and humans. These studies are cost effective, easy to handle and are relatively free of adverse effects, which gives magnesium a role in treating CAD patients, especially high-risk groups such as CAD patients with heart failure, the elderly and hospitalized patients with hypomagnesemia. Furthermore, magnesium therapy is indicated in life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias such as Torsades de Pointes and intractable ventricular tachycardia.\u201d
In addition to what magnesium I normally ingest as part of my diet, I take 350mg of elemental magnesium daily (Natural Vitality Calm Magnesium Citrate) and have for a number of years. Because of my pragmatic use of magnesium supplements, I accepted the opportunity to review this formulation.
One test of the bioavailability of any essential mineral supplement is to measure its concentration in the blood. Magnesium requires an acidic environment for optimum absorption (best to take on an empty stomach to maximize HCL concentration in the gut).
This formulation does not readily dissolve in any liquid I tried. My greatest success was achieved by placing it in a blender for five minutes in warm water. OK, no big deal. However, drinking this stuff was impossible for me: IT TASTES HORRIBLE!!! I tried a few fruit drinks, various make-your-own-carbonated-drink mixtures, and gobs of sugar. Without getting too graphic, it honestly reminds me of putrefaction.
For my health in particular, adequate magnesium levels are essential. If I had to rely on this stuff I would die. Because of its difficulty in dissolving and its taste, I cannot recommend this product.", "label": 0}

This is an upscale designer water bottle, top of the line, and so much fun. The designs Of Sigg's water bottles are gorgeous, from the plain, solid color bottles, to the ones with intricate designs. They are simply beautiful! These special designs for kids are precious! I switched from regular plastic water bottles because of health concerns, thinking it would take more work to maintain. These do necessitate regular cleaning (I clean mine every day), but having something so beautiful to drink from makes the cleaning fun. Sort of like my rings, glasses, and watch, I now consider my Sigg personal water bottle a vital accessory, reminding me to drink more water, making a statement about my values, and expressing myself with a special design. Yes, all in a water bottle!
Sigg of Switzerland water bottles are very high quality, made of light aluminum on the outside, slightly insulated, and covered with a special powder coat on the inside that prevents any leaching whatsoever, unlike plastic and polycarbonate water bottles. They are light, durable, and perfect for any activity. Well water tastes spectacular in these bottles, just like from the tap.
Sigg bottles come with several different types of tops. I bought the screw top because I don't like sports tops, and I don't mind unscrewing the top when I want a drink. It is totally leakproof, which is important to me. The top is pretty and can be hooked onto a carabiner. I get comments on it all the time, \"What's that? I love it!\" The sports top version is ok; I just am not a fan, as I don't feel like I can get enough water from the little stream from the sports top. However, for convenience, you might prefer it. For children, there is a cap-type top. All are leak-proof. If you are ever unsatisfied with the top, you can buy a screw top separately to fit your Sigg bottle.
Sigg makes their personal water bottle in .6L and 1L in this style. I have both. I use the .6L for sports activities because they are smaller. When I won't have to carry the container, I like the larger bottle. Sigg also makes a smaller .3L bottle for children that is a perfect size for young people. You can buy Siggs in alternative sizes too, such as .75L, .4L (for kids), .6L, .5L. You can occasionally find this bottle in the 1.5L size, also. Search Amazon for the perfect size.
Pick a style and pattern you like, as this bottle is a personal accessory, and should reflect your style. The colors are vibrant and even prettier than they seem in the pictures on Amazon.
They are expensive, but they are so durable that you can plan on them lasting many years. I consider them both an accessory and an investment in my health, so they are well worth it value-wise for me.
Highly recommended.

God made two things that secured my happiness in this world: Marshmallows and bubbles. This is a review about the latter and a device that promises to be a \"spa-like\" experience. (Marshmallows in a bathtub might be delicious, but it's weird. And gross.)
Like me, you stumbled across this device and thought: \"Now, I no longer have to make my own bath bubbles.\" (Don't ask.) It looks magical, and comfortable. The product description boasts, \"Soothing bath bubbles. Variable speeds. Heat maintenance.\" Upon the unboxing, I saw a very long cord, a machine that makes bubbles and a bathmat that looked like it was something Lady Gaga wore on tour. You place the long cord into the wall outlet, and you connect the hose-thing to the Lady Gaga thing. Then you turn it on and it makes BUBBLES. Truthfully, it does make bubbles. But it doesn't stick to the bottom of any textured bathtub. This is where s*** got real.
I'm not one to give up easily, so I sat on the bubble mat, which was not nearly as graceful as you might think. Because the suction cups are made of non-suction-y stuff, (purely the scientific term,) they will not work with bathtubs that are not 100% smooth. This means you have to actually clean your tub with each use, and it has to not be a \"bath-fitter\" tub, or any tub with texture.
Instead of a peaceful bathing experience, the mat will find you with its evil bubble tentacles and hunt you down in a way that can only be described as, \"Bathtub assault.\" The mat came up as my delicate body tried to hold it down, and unfortunately the Lady Gaga-like structure won. It mocked me with the, \"gel-filled padding,\" and it's, \"tri-bubble speeds.\" It made bubbles clearly, but I had to sit through arduous torture to have the bubbles. It was like college.
Keep in mind the warranty is a Homedics warranty. One year? If I had a single Homedics device that worked after the 2nd week of use, it'd be a miracle. Homedics is like that time you were short on cash so you ordered the crappy Tequila instead of the top shelf tequila. You paid with your evening and the puking. (You promised yourself, \"Oh! Never again!\" But alas, they get you with their photos of women in a zen-like state on the box, or being pure and not being able to afford a REAL jacuzzi tub. Whatever.) Additionally, Homedics keeps Bed Bath & Beyond in business, which is unfortunately where I picked up this gem. The horror continues.
Skip it. Don't try it thinking it'll be different for you. (Oh, but your bathtub has a shiny surface and it's so shiny that you could brush your hair whilst gazing into its white, porcelain beauty? The suction cups will fail you, bathtub-gazer.) You can still win if you hit your back button and buy yourself some marshmallows instead. Those never fail me.", "label": 0}

The Sleeptracker is supposed to find an \"almost-awake\" moment to wake you up, feeling refreshed. I really wakted it to work. It didn't.
The first night I tried it it didn't monitor my sleep at all and it didn't wake me up. The next night I tried it it woke me up but I certainly didn't feel refreshed. The following mornings it woke me up sometimes and sometimes not. The alarm is very quiet, according to the manifacturer because it doesn't need to be louder because it wakes you up when you're almost awake anyway. Problem is, if it doesn't find one of those \"almost awake\" moments, it rings at the time you set, no matter how deep you sleep. And it only rings once. If you miss it, you better have another alarm clock set or you won't wake up. I overslept twice in the first week I tried the Sleeptracker Pro. It also has a vibrating alarm but it's very weak.
Before going to bed you're supposed to set a \"to bed\" time. The easiest way to do this is to press the \"Down\" button when the watch is in \"to bed\" mode and it automatically sets the \"to bed\" time at thirty minutes later. This would be very easy if the \"down\" button had worked. Unfortunately it only works sometimes. I've had to press it up to ten times before it sets the time and it's just as frustrating every time. And getting pissed off about an alarm clock doesn't make it easier to fall asleep.
Another problem is the software that lets you track your sleep history. You connect the Sleeptracker with a USB cable to the computer and upload the data (the watch can only store one night's data for some unexplicable reason so you'll have to do this every day or lose data). Here you can see your almost awake moments and when the alarm went off. You can also click to see your best and worst sleep sessions, but there's no explanation of what makes a sleep session good or bad. I haven't noticed any pattern. Occasionally I get the error message \"Sleeptracker not found\". I emailed the support and asked about it and they told me there was some weird bug that gives that error message on Sundays and told me to uninstall and download the software from their website. Looks like they haven't been beta testing the software.
And this is the feeling I get for the product as a whole: that it hasn't been tested. It's hard to believe the Sleeptracker Pro is an improved version of the original Sleeptracker, because there are so many little flaws that would easily have been found and fixed if they had done any testing at all before marketing it. As it is, the Sleeptracker Pro feels like an unfinished product. If it was as sophisticated and effective as it claims, it would have been a great product, but it's not. In its current state it's really just a novelty item that might have been fun for a tenth of the price, but there's nothing to justify paying $180 for a product that is impractical to use and doesn't do what it's supposed to do. I really wanted this to work but I returned it to get a refund.", "label": 0}

That's practically impossible. I'm gluten, dairy, and egg-free, so finding a protein bar that has both fiber and protein was a miracle for me. I struggle to get my daily fiber in, so I usually have 1/2 to 1 of these a day. I'm not vegan, so I also eat the grass-fed beef collagen bars in their Paleo Line.
Here's my personal opinion and breakdown of the PEGAN bars:
*Sweet Sunflower: BEST TEXTURE and flavor. Closest to peanut butter, soft and chewy straight out of the wrapper, easy to overdo it and get sick of.
*Chocolate Lava: 7-10 seconds in the microwave (this is actually recommended) makes this soft and chewy and *almost* brownie-like. It's a little sticky, but decent chocolate flavor. Without the microwave, it's a little dry-sticky, kind of like a two-day-old brownie, but still totally palatable, just have a beverage nearby.
*Vanilla Cinnamon Bun and Cinnamon Raisin Bun: These are actually really good. I don't even think I've tried nuking them. The flavor is spot on and the texture is on the medium-dry side, kind of like a day-old cinnamon bun without icing. A little crumbly, but not fall-apart. Also not something that is going to leave you gasping for hydration.
*Gingersnap: I just can't. These are so disgusting, I'm so glad I got it in a variety pack and only had to waste 1 or 2 of them. Even my hubby, who can eat just about everything couldn't stomach it. I asked him if it was just me. His response is \"What is wrong with this one???\" It's full chemical flavor. I'm not the only critic. There are other reviewers who agree. I don't know where they went wrong. Just throw some ginger and a touch of cinnamon in there and you'll be fine, but somehow it went sideways. DON'T torture yourself, it's not you, it's them. Send them back, ask for a refund or throw them out. It's poison.
PALEO Grass-fed Beef Collagen Bars (these fit my allergen-friendly diet):
*Chocolate Mint: I'm a chocolate-mint person, so I like it. It's a decent mint flavor, it's kind of like the chocolate lava ones, but I don't have these very often and I have to be in the mood for the flavor. Sometimes I'll have half of one for a \"dessert. Not overwhelmingly amazing, but not terrible.
*Almond Fudge: Meh, I've kind of moved over to the Paleo bars, but these are also not bad on flavor and texture. These bars lend themselves well to a few seconds in the microwave.
*Vanilla Pudding: I'm not a huge vanilla fan, but these aren't bad. Not too chemically, decent texture, from what I remember. I didn't want to leave these out of the review, but it's been awhile since I ate these. I don't have any yuck memories, just not over the top awesome memories either.", "label": 1}

I have been using the Bald Eagle Pro for over a year now. Just about when the one-year was going to be over, the battery started losing power.

I called Skull Shaver again and they said they would send another replacement. After a couple of days when the replacement did not arrive, I called again. This time they sent a COMPLETE box with everything! I was very pleased with the customer service. The shaver works very well and it is very easy to use. Takes only a couple of minutes each time.

OLD REVIEW
Power to the baldies! I mean, electric power delivered via a rechargeable battery that rotate circular thingies that cut hair pretty well. For the layman, a shaver that works as described. To make a short story long, I was tired to forking $15 bucks each time I went to my local Great Clips for a 'haircut' that required driving, some waiting, and at times praying that the haircutter would not nick an artery. Well, I ordered the Bald Eagle Pro based on reviews and it fits well for my needs. Instead of waiting a month to go to the hairdresser, I can now easily shave my head every week. I read reviews from some folks who complain about stubble. Well, I am on the other end of the complaint, in that I wish it would leave more stubble. I actually like to have a hint of hair. I mean, I don't want the ladies to think I am going completely bald. (That's a joke, by the way for those who don't get these things). In any case, the shaver works as I expected. I actually prefer to grip it with the battery and kind of press it down on my held as I make the motions all over. At my second try I was better, and I think it works better with shaving foam. Obviously that reduces friction and allows for smoother motion on the head. The battery seems to hold the charge well, and the entire unit is pretty compact and handy. The construction is well done and so far I have no complaints. I think the unit is pricey, and the company would probably attract more buyers if they lowered the price, but that's not my problem. Good luck to Skull Shaver as they do have a good product, but hopefully they figure out a good pricing model that works for both sides.
Update: I have been using the Bald Eagle Pro for about 3 weeks and I am quite pleased overall. The unit has worked without any issues, and shaving my head is a breeze. I first apply shaving foam (NO GEL), and that makes shaving easy. Compared to your typical electric razor (like the ones hairdressers use), this is so much better and convenient, and faster. Initially I was missing a few areas around my ears, but now I do a few more passes. The shaving is quite painless and worry-free. I shave once a week and it works great for my needs.", "label": 1}

I thought I would give this a try after reading about it. It does help relieve pain, and it also --for me---provides a nice, drowsy-relaxed feeling. I like taking magnesium so there is no hangover effect the next morning so I can still wake up for work with no problems. Initially, I was having what I guess was restless-leg issues. Just an uncomfortable feeling in my legs/ calves where they sort of twitch and just won't relax to let you sleep. One pump of this spread on both calves solved that problem COMPLETELY. I put it on other areas like if my hip or lower back is aching, and it helps me fall asleep by relieving the pain in that area. Also, works great if you over-did it from exercise so have achy muscles. I have used it on my neck, shoulders, upper arms, trigger thumb joint pain, low back, hip, legs and feet. No problems whatsoever----besides the drowsiness effect on me. (I would say you could probably gauge if you will feel drowsy/sleepy vs. just relaxed and pain-free based on the effect any other magnesium supplement you have tried has affected you. I just happen to be super-sensitive to it.)
I recently bought this product that also contains MSM after reading about the pain relieving effects of MSM on joints. My foot had started hurting mainly under the big toe after wearing some new shoes and doing a lot of walking that day. Anyway, using the cream has also been helpful in that regard, putting it on at night (again because it happens to cause me drowsiness).
This does have a rust smell because it is a mineral. I typically wear vinyl or nitrile latex-free examination-type gloves to apply the cream since I do not want that smell on my hands. The smell does go away after a while if you do not want to use gloves. ( Also, I re-use the gloves.)
Also, I have learned that this product with just the magnesium lotion is a bit stickier and smellier than the one which contains MSM, but that is because the one with MSM has 25mg magnesium per pump whereas this product contains only magnesium at 40mg per pump. Both lotions do absorb, but this one, at first, will have a bit of a sticky feel. The stickiness and odor both go away after maybe 10 minutes.
Additionally, it is true this lotion does not have any effect on your bowel movements. Some can take magnesium during the day with no problems, but this magnesium though a lotion, affects me just like a pill supplement in that it causes me to feel drowsy. (Again, I only add this because I am super-sensitive and want to make sure anybody who is sensitive is aware you might not want to use this for the first time right before going to work. Also, even if you are sensitive to a magnesium-drowsy effect, it may not create that feeling for you with only one pump. )
Bottom line: I think this is a great alternative to taking NSAIDs on a consistent basis which I have read is not good for the liver or stomach lining over time.", "label": 1}

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
.
I recently reviewed some other shower steamers and they weren\u2019t very good. I saw these in my Vine Listing and thought I\u2019d try them and see if they were any better.
As an Amazon Vine reviewer, I am offered new-to-market products, if I want them, at no cost to me, in exchange for an honest, objective, and comprehensive review.
I get a laugh out of the spelling on the front; these are apparently Showen Steamers! \ud83d\ude0a At least the rear spelling is correct!
Interestingly, the package also includes a little purple nylon mesh bag and adhesive hook, presumably to hang a steamer block in. There is also a little pick, which I have no idea what it is for.
However, after some thought, I think it might be to open the plastic wrap! Each block is foil-wrapped, but unlike the previous steamers, these are also wrapped in plastic. That is very tough to remove without scissors, or a pick! One set of blocks is green and the other is purple. This is reflected in the actual crystal block as well as the foil. I assume the purple is the Lavender.
I say \u2018assume\u2019 because the aroma is nothing like Lavender or Eucalyptus & Menthol. It is certainly less \u201cchemical\u201d smelling than the previous set I reviewed, and perhaps less pungent in use, but I\u2019ve no idea what the smell actually is. There\u2019s no comparison with the essential oils I have of these very scents.
As with any of these steamers, you have to place them away from the direct shower spray. They will last less than one shower if you do. I place one so that it is occasionally hit with water, to release the aroma. That way it can last maybe 4 showers.
As mentioned, the aroma is not very strong and if hit with hot water, the block will release a burst of scent, which quickly dissipates and some of the coloring will run in the shower. The scent can be overwhelmed easily by any scented bodywash or shampoo. I certainly didn\u2019t notice any residual aroma the next day, with the block having sat in the shower overnight. I think the product would be better if it were a small tablet for a single use directly in the shower stream and the price were less than 50c each.

While this set is less offensive and strongly smelling than the last, I still would not spend my own money of these. At $2.67 each, these are not good value and I can\u2019t recommend them", "label": 0}

Occasionally a supplement will come along that intrigues me enough to try. I saw the HSN-Plus from Vizeri Nutrition on Amazon & because it was for hair, skin & nails with the added benefits of cardiovascular health, circulatory health, cognitive & vision support, along with joint & tendon support I decided I should give it a try.
The thing about vitamins is they are largely subjective. You think you feel better so you chalk it up to the supplement. Is it psychological or physical? It\u2019s hard to be sure but with HSN-Plus I can say definitely say I noticed the improvement after just one day without even thinking about it being the supplement being the cause. It wasn\u2019t until the end of the second day I attributed the relief & better physical recovery to the HSN-Plus.
Here\u2019s the backstory... Bear with me, it may seem unrelated at first but it connects.
I have this amazing black labrador. She is blind & her back legs don\u2019t work very well from a hereditary condition. She doesn\u2019t seem to be in pain & she loves to play by wrestling & throwing a squeak ball for me to bring back for her. (She tosses it with her mouth.) Wherever I work on the property she finds me by hearing & smell & by moving like a seal she quickly finds me & hangs out while I work, be it weeding, mowing or whatever. Because she travels quite a distance over a \u00bd acre fenced yard I don\u2019t want her to overdo so when were done working I put a tarp down with a cushion on it & say \u201cHop on.\u201d She does and I pull her across the property, back to her blankets on the back porch.
We\u2019ve been doing this for the past three years but for the last year my right knee is giving me grief, (my dog weighs 79 pounds so it\u2019s no big surprise.) But in the evening it stiffens up & I have trouble walking until it limbers up. Plus there is a sharp pain when I pivot.
So two days ago I noticed in the evening my knee wasn\u2019t stiff, it wasn\u2019t sore & there wasn\u2019t any pain when I pivoted. I didn\u2019t give it much thought but the next night after working out back & bringing the dog up I didn\u2019t have any knee problems either.
I ran it through my mind what was different & realized I had started taking HSN-Plus two days ago. I looked at the label very close & saw it contains MSM which I remember from days gone by as good for inflammation. I Googled it & sure enough it does have pain relieving benefits. So when the HSN-Plus label says it supports Joint & Tendon Health, it really does! The combination of supplements in HSN-Plus is apparently just what I need.
I can honestly say I am still pain free in my knee & this supplement is the only thing different about my regiment. So kudos to HSN-Plus! My dog thanks you and I thank you.", "label": 1}

Anyway - I always wanted to try one of these - but they were always in the $200.00 and up range - too pricey for a little sunshine. Anyway - each winter I seem to grow slower, and more lethargic, more passe', lower and lower energy. So I got to looking at these again and bought it when I found the deal.
Anyway - as a first time user of happy lite/SAD/sunshine lights - here's my take. In the evenings I get very, very sluggish and dragging around. I took it out of the box, assembled it, and tried placement where I wanted over my computer. Although it was 9:30, I flipped the switch on and thought I would try it for 15 minutes - but no more. (Take 1 hour to get 10,000 LUX and in 30 minutes you get 5,000 LUX). Anyway, the little 15 minutes I used it I definitely could tell a pick me up. I felt a little more energy and clearheadedness. Really I did. I popped up and cleaned up a little in the kitchen and set myself of to knock out some paperwork. After a while I started to settled back in to a late evening sleepy mode. So - I say it works based on the brief exposure I had tonight. I can't wait until tommorrow morning to try it out for the full time. I look forward to having 'full energy' again during the remains of these somber wintry months, so I can get things done and not be walking around like a zombie.
RE: the cheapness of the product stated in earlier comments. Not a problem. It's not THAT cheaply made. It's a solid plastic cover on the outside and metal on the inside. The outer plastic cover (called a diffuser) lines up in the ridges ok, but one side seems to not exactly lay flat in the ridge. No biggy. I can live with it. I'm not touching it all the time and after all, I'm using it for the 'light' it produces.
It was MUCH bigger than the picture makes it appear. It is as tall as a shoe box standing on it's side. A little taller actually. I'd best describe it as the size of a half a bread box standing on it's side (the old plastic ones that nobody has used in the past 50 years). Or expect it to be about 1/3 of the width your computer hard drive box (assuming you have a standard one).
Anyway, I figure in the morning this will have the same effect as a good cup of coffee.
I look forward to having energy and being highly active all day and getting lots done!!
It is sure to help me reclaim my days and hours.
Yaaaaaaaaaay. I'm so glad I finally tried this!
I say if you have *any* slow, sleepy, fatigued, groggy, slumbering, lethargic symptoms at all during the day in the cold months - this is well worth the money!!!

I usually wear +1.25 for reading, so I went with +.50 for computer glasses, hoping they would be strong enough for my laptop which is fairly close, but weak enough to be able to also wear at my desktop computer which has a monitor that's further away. The strength worked out well for both purposes.
The lenses seem to be pretty good quality for the price I paid. The anti-reflective coating is the kind with the purple reflection, not the green reflection that expensive prescription eyeglasses have, but I expected that. Basically you want to be careful cleaning these because they will scratch more easily than non-coated lenses. There is a very slight tint to the lenses it's not bad though, it doesn't interfere with color, it just tones down bright whites. You might not even notice they're tinted without doing a side by side comparison with something white. I first tested these while sitting outdoors on an overcast day doing some paperwork and when I occasionally took them off I realized how harshly bright all my papers suddenly seemed. I've been testing these out all afternoon and evening with paperwork, for laptop use and now; sitting at my desk with a larger monitor, and there's definitely less eyestrain with them on in all cases. The +.50 strength (for me) is perfect to magnify ever so slightly to reduce tension but also weak enough that I can glance away from the computer without getting woozy from the blur.
The frames themselves, well, I have mixed thoughts on the frames. On the plus side, they're lightweight. They also have spring-hinge temples which is great if you tend to remove your glasses with one hand so they don't get bent out of shape. The color however, is so much worse than I was expecting and I'm really not very picky with glasses. I chose the yellow frames, primarily because I dislike seeing dark frames in my peripheral view. But my impression was that they were a matt, semi-translucent mellow yellow color. But they are not translucent at all and they are definitely not a mellow shade. They are a solid, pastel \"Easter yellow\" which when combined with the thick frames look totally absurd on my face. Not in a \"cute nerdy\" way either, but an exaggerated, costume, clown sort of way; with my eyes close to the bridge of the glasses giving an almost crossed-eyed appearance.
That being said, I plan to keep them because I live alone and plan to wear these at my home computer where no one ever sees me, and the lenses themselves are great, especially for the price. Oh, perhaps the best part of this purchase is the fantastic case they came in; it's a semi-hard zippered case which is exactly as pictured, along with a cleaning cloth. The case alone was worth what I paid, although I noticed the price on these glasses has increased since I ordered them. So despite looking like a clown in them, the lenses are great for computer use so they'll work out for my purposes.", "label": 1}

And here it is...
I love trying new products, especially for beauty and hair. My bathroom cabinets and bedroom containers probably contain more than a hair salon. I was lucky enough to be born with very "versatile" hair. I can get it super curly (naturally but with the right products, of course), it can go wavy like soft, like natural beach waves, it can go straight and full of body and volume or it can go pin straight and sleek. It all depends on what look I am in the mood for that day, how much time I have and what the weather is going to be that day.
I have mastered my routine for all of these looks and use the hair products and tools necessary to get my desired look. I typically use a large round brush and hair dryer, sectioning it as I dry. It comes out straight, but full of body. I also use a teasing brush to get more volume.
In order to give my honest opinion on how this brush worked, I knew I couldn't do my typical routine. I dried my hair without any brushes or products (only used serum). It had slight waves and frizz when it was fully dried. I used the brush starting with layers and temp around 300.degrees. I wasn't noticing much of.the "straight" look that I expected, so I turned up the heat to 400 and continued to brush in sections.
The thing that really bothered me as I was using it is the placement of the heat control buttons. They are right on the sides, where you would grip the handle. There is a button to "lock" the heat setting in place, but I kept hitting that too which would unlock it and the temperature would increase or decrease.\u00a0 After finishing brushing my whole head, I was a little disappointed. My hair was straight, but not anywnere near how I would want it styled. No matter how close I got it to my scalp, it never gave my hair the smooth look that I'm used to.
More importantly, when I starting using the brush, I\u00a0 noticed my hair started breaking off small peices. Talk about damaging! It almost looked like it started to fray and dry out. I also could not get the ends of my hair to be completely straight or curled into any sort of way - they were just dried out.
I tried it again several days later and came out with the same results.
Overall, I really like the concept of the brush, it arrived quickly and looked exactly as the pictures show. As for the brush itself and the results, I was dissapointed and unimpressed. I really did have high hopes because I thought it could be a big time saver. Unfortunately, I have to say, I wouldn't recommend this brush if you know how to style your hair with the tools you already have and use.\u00a0 But, if you are not really comfortable with products, drying, styling, etc., then this might be perfect for you. I do think it might work better for someone with shorter hair - mine is about half way down my back.
I know this review was lengthy, but I hope it is helpful in making a decision on your purchase.", "label": 0}

As for this massager, I am very happy with it! Suntue's reached out to me and wanted to make things right since I didn't like their other massager. I returned it and they sent me this unit instead, based on my preferences. Which was very nice of them.
Ive been very happy with this percussion massager so far. Its inexpensive, well built, it has a good strong 25 watt motor and some useful attachments! It feels really good!
I have suffered from chronic widespread pain from Fibromyalgia and nerve damage. I use a massager several times a day, EVERY DAY, to help keep my pain levels under control. I get sore muscles, stiff, achy joints, trigger points, knots, oh sooo many issues that cause me pain. My wife is massaging my back right now while Im typing this review and it...feels...great! Very similar to other percussion massagers I've been using over the years!
This may sound silly at first, but my favorite part of this massager is the cord! I'll explain why.
I use massagers ALOT, sometimes for several hours on and off throughout the day. So I have worn out many massagers over the years. And 9/10 times, the first thing to malfunction has been THE CORD! Companies use poorly designed cord protectors, or cheap, thin cords made with subpar quality brittle copper and plastic parts that wear and fray over time just through normal usage. The point where the cord comes out of the until is the area most succeptible to damage. The copper inside the cord frays and can suddenly (and sometimes very dangerously) cause an electrical arc and burn right through the cord! I've experienced this nearly life-threatening cord failure on dozens of massagers over the years! If it wasn't for the breaker tripping, I would have been electrocuted or something caught on fire!
It got to the point where I started using my electrical engineering skills to remove the awful cords and solder new, high quality utility cords onto my massagers to make them last longer and prevent such dangerous catastrophic failures!
Here's why Suntue's cord really impresses me! The design of the cord protector is brilliant! I'll include a photo so you all can see. It has a nice, thick double shielded cord, with a very long cord protector, and they included a stiff rubber arched spine on the top of the protector to allow the cord to still bend, but not easily bend too much to the point where regular usage will damage the cord! I applaud them for this design because it really seems they put alot of thought into preventing cord failure!
Some of my favorite percussion massagers have literally gone off the market and back to the R&D lab because of so many people complaining about these dangerous cord failures! So Bravo to Suntue for this smart cord design! That alone earns 5 stars from me!
I will update my review in the future after I use it for a few months and I'll let everyone know how its holding up! But as of now, I am very impressed! For the price of this massager and the quality of customer service, you can't really go wrong!", "label": 1}

When really dry, it felt like my hands were going to fall off at the wrists, and I'll always remember the excruciating pain.
It was some time around the 1960's that specialty hand soaps for mechanics began appearing in the car parts stores. They were a bit of a miracle to watch as the gel just effortlessly lifted all that grease off the hands. But this new miracle solution worked so well it would also dry out the hands until years later when somebody thought to include lanolin in the mix. That finally changed everything for mechanics who no longer had to show up at the dinner table with grease still embedded in their dry, chapped, and bleeding hands.
Up until then there was LAVA soap (still in production today) but that's like scrubbing your hands with a brick. The highly abrasive mixture would sting and didn't work well on dry chapped hands, doing nothing to help heal them or diminish the pain involved. There were some special lotions like Corn Huskers and Vaseline Jelly (probably the oldest) for repairing dry, sick skin, but it would be used up too quickly and it might take weeks before remembering to buy more.
Now that I'm retired I haven't had dry skin or bleeding fingers for the past ten years, but it doesn't mean the hands still won't chap when neglected. Vaseline Medicated Intensive Care lotion was my favorite up until they took it out of production, nearly putting me into a panic. Vaseline introduced a replacement that worked even better, called Vaseline Deep Moisturizing lotion with 30% Petrolatum and had the same consistency as tooth paste. A little dab will do ya' on the back of the hands on a daily basis. But I quit buying it recently because Vaseline now contracts it out to other cosmetic companies, and the price is soaring to about $10 for 4.5 ounces while the quality continues to go south. So now I'm using Amazon's Solimo, likely made using Vaseline's own 100% White Petrolatum Jelly that has proven for a couple of centuries now to be better and Amazon has it priced lower than everything else.
There really is no need for anyone to suffer from dry, rough skin with the hundreds of lotions and treated soaps that are now available, all intended to remove that greasy feeling that women make very obvious how much they despise. Typically, most men couldn't care less how it feels provided it does what it claims. The best ones all seem to contain at least one ingredient of either lanolin, or petrolatum, or glycerin, and even menthol. There is a whole flock of ingredients listed in other products that have such long complicated names they can't even be pronounced. Oddly enough, those are the same ones that cost the most, whereas my little 7.5 ounce jar of Solimo that cost three bucks only contains just one ingredient: 100% White Petrolatum Jelly. A little dab on the back of the hand soaks into the skin quickly and the jar will last a couple of years positively keeping my hands absolutely free of dry, chapped, and bleeding fingers. And for that, I am very thankful. So there you go.", "label": 1}

There are three LED lights on the charger that indicate batteries have been correctly loaded and charging current is being delivered. The LEDs will shut off when charging is complete. Current will stop flowing to batteries at this time.\"
--------------------------------------
Above is an exerpt of the product description provided by Rayovac. It is somewhat misleading since two major gaffs are being made:
1. Only the LED for the channels that have batteries connected will light up. There are three separate channels.
2. Charging automatically stops after eight hours, and not before eight hours of charging has occured.
The model number of the charger I received is PS20A and a pdf with the same instructions I received with the charger appears when doing a google search for this charger. There is some discrepancy since the above comments from Rayovac might have you believing that once the batteries have a full charge the three LEDs on the charger will go out, and charging stops when a full charge is achieved prior to eight hours of charging.
Unfortunately, there is nothing stated in the directions that support that. Nor was any of that found to be true during actual use of the charger.
As such, I ran the charger for 8 hours on new batteries I received with the charger. It is stated on the packaging that rechargeable batteries will retain at least 80% of the full charge they were sent out with for 6 months. In actual use the charger went the full eight hours before the LEDs went out, only supporting the statement in the instructions that charging will automatically stop after eight hours.
Judging from the statements in the Rayovac ad, Rayovac would have us believing that charging should have stopped within just a few hours and the LEDs should have gone out at that time. Well, it doesn't happen that way.
The main gripe with all the other chargers is that there is no indication of how much charge the batteries actually have without purchasing additional testing equipment just for that purpose. So it looks like Rayovac is trying to convince buyers that their charger does more than the others when in actually, the full extent of its additional abilities is merely to shut itself off after eight hours of operation.
As in all the others, this charger will recharge the batteries, but there is no positive indication if the batteries have received a full charge within those eight hours while the charger remains in operation. That is a big difference from implying that charging will automatically stop when the batteries are fully charged. There is no indication this charger is capable of doing that.
Plug it in when you want to recharge your batteries, and in eight hours it will automatically shut iteself off. That's probably sufficient assurance for most that the batteries will be fully charged and there will be less possibility of burning out the charger or the batteries. However, in contrast to Rayovac's misleading statement, the possibilities of burnout still exist, so it's probably best to deplete the batteries as much as possible before connecting them for a boost in energy again.

I found this \"morning fruit aojiru\" (translated name of product) from Yakult, the company famous for its probiotic yogurt drinks, and decided to try it. I usually don't eat breakfast (which I know is also bad), so I started to to drink this in place of of it. I figure it's better to have something in my stomach rather than nothing, and it's easy to fit into my mornings when I'm always running around. As for the taste, well, it's a mild fruity aojiru. The aojiru flavor is toned down by the fruits, which does make it easier to drink, but for me, I can still taste the aojiru and it's not something I'd savor. Since the amount is small enough, it's easy to drink up really fast though, lol. As for its effects, I don't have any numbers or evidence to show that this is working in any way, but my mind and body does feel more calm every morning since I started drinking it (I guzzle down extra water afterwards too). FYI, I am in no way suggesting that this can be used as a breakfast replacement, or that it has to be consumed in the morning. It's just an easy way to supplement your body with greens (and fruits, in this case), no matter the time of day.
Here is the translated info of the product, to the best of my knowledge, if it helps in any way:
Ingredients: barley grass extract powder (dextrin, barley grass extract), apple juice powder (dextrin, apple juice), banana powder, fructose, apple fibers, glucose, mango powder (dextrin, mango), acerola powder, flavoring agent, (part of the raw materials include apples and bananas)
The barley grass is grown with lots of labor and care, without pesticides and chemical fertilizers, by farmers in the Kunisaki Peninsula and surrounding areas of Oita Prefecture, Japan, who are contracted with Yakult.
Popular fruits such as bananas, mangos, apples, and acerola are blended in, which include the fibers derived from these fruits as well as vitamin C.
Suggested consumption: one packet a day, mixed with 1/4 cup of hot or cold water, milk, or other preferred drinks. Can also be mixed with various foods such as yogurt. (Japanese measurements are slightly different from the U.S., and their suggested amount of 75ml translates to about 1/4 cup -- I measured it using both Japanese and U.S. measuring cups)
Other notes: avoid making it ahead of time, and consume immediately once opened; there may be slight discoloration due processed plant material, but this does not affect the quality; consult with your physician before consuming if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or on medication; check ingredients if you have any food allergies; although rare, stop consuming if it doesn't agree with your body; store this away from small children; be careful not to cut yourself on the edges of the packet", "label": 1}

I have tried others and they had flaws that caused them to be a styling tool that I would not use on a daily basis. I love the "idea" of the straightening brush and I knew that one designed well would be such a fantastic tool for daily styling.
This one is the one I was waiting for. My hair is fine, medium in thickness, has quite a bit of curl, and tends to frizz when I don't straighten it with a straightening iron. Because my hair isn't very thick, though, a straightening iron tends to leave my hair very flat with absolutely no body or fullness.
I feel like the Gisala Metal Ceramic Hair Straightening Brush straightens my hair without removing all of the volume. It looks softer and natural, but it still removes all the frizz and curl. The straightening brush reaches the same high levels of heat as my straightening iron does so the smooth styling has the same staying power.
There are several features that set this straightening brush apart from the others on the market right now. It has a long power cord that swivels 360 degrees at the base. This is a feature you find on almost all professional styling tools because it makes them SO much easier and less awkward to use. It prevents the cord from tangling while you use it.
It is lightweight with a handle that fits very comfortably in your hand while you use it. The buttons used to operate the straightening brush are located on the very front of the handle instead of on the side. On the other brushes with the buttons on the side, it is impossible not to push the buttons while you use the brush. The Gisala Hair Straightening Brush has the added protection of a "Lock" feature so that you can't accidentally push the buttons to change the temperature or turn the brush on and off while styling.
A digital display flashes until the desired heat setting is reached, then it remains solid.
The heated brush plates are close together so that they easily come into contact with all strands of your hair. The heated base and brush bristle plates are super smooth. They are bordered and topped with equally smooth teeth that remain cool to the touch. Because all parts of the brush are super smooth the brush easily glides through your hair, not pulling or breaking it.
Other brushes have rubbery tips on top of the brush plates that make them hard to pull through your hair so that you could tangle and damage your hair.
I know it isn't the most important thing, but I adore the Cyan color and design of this brush. It also comes in a Gold color that looks like it would be beautiful, too.
This comes beautifully packaged in a box with a magnetic closure. Included in the box are the straightening brush, a cleaning brush tool, a heat protection glove, a pretty black drawstring bag to store the straightening brush and accessories in, and a warranty card. The operating instructions are printed on the inside of the top of the box. They are complete and very easy to understand.'

I have really enjoyed using the Celleanser Vegan Clean Toner, and my skin seems to like it too. I also tried the Celleanser Clean Serum, and the Celleanser Clean Cream. They all worked nicely for my dry, sensitive skin, and they worked nicely together.
This toner mist is a very fine, soothing liquid mist that provides an extra layer of hydration, moisture, and antioxidants on the skin. It is applied immediately after cleansing, or as a soothing refresher throughout the day. It soaks into the skin nicely, and prepares the skin to absorb the next steps of the skincare routine. It is not sticky, and it layers perfectly with other products. The scent is incredibly light, and it disappears immediately.
I will say that the finish of this line of products isn't my go-to. It isn't really dewy or glowy. But I wouldn't call it extremely matte either. Maybe somewhere in-between, but more toward the matte side. I typically like to use dewy, glowy skincare, so I would probably use this product at night for that reason.
The packaging is very nice with a unique-looking, tall plastic bottle with a very functional mister. It seems to produce short, fine bursts of mist. At $19.99 for 120ml / 4.05 fl. oz., it's a pretty good deal. Especially because the ingredient list is nice.
I haven't been using it long enough to speak on the long-term results, but I do like this toner mist so far, and I will definitely continue to use it. I would recommend this to anyone who likes the ingredient list and wants to give it a try.
A NOTE TO CELLEANSER: It would be wonderful to add accurate, full ingredient lists to all of your products listed on Amazon. It would go a long way toward helping your customers save time and make informed decisions without any hesitations or uncertainties. Thank you!

I will review this again and update once I get one that actually works but the one I got was not operational. It had a loose connection in it probably from the poor shipping packaging. It was not packaged well inside a bigger box. But if that was not bad enough I chatted on text with an Amazon Tech making me test this broken thing for everything A to Z for 30 minutes only for them to tell me I was right....it doesn\u2019t work. Then the Amazon Tech told me to email the seller for a new one because she couldn\u2019t do it. Great. A waste of 30 minutes so far. Then I wrote the email link she gave me and here I am 3 days later with zero response. So then I figured I best just get my money back so now I have to spend another hour taking this item to ship back because the seller would not respond and the Amazon Tech said her hands were tied so to speak. Now with all that said, I have read a lot about this item. After reading it the science behind it is solid but you must limit its use to the refrigerator for safety because it is not good to have this running in your rooms so only use it in the fridge and it will be perfectly safe and very effective according to the science behind it.
For the reasons above I can only give it a 1 star at this time because quality control is needed on this one, but once I get a unit that actually works I will update this review.
UPDATE 2-28-20
I finally got a new one of these and it works so I put it in the fridge and it operates as the manual said it would BUT this unit produces the cleaning version of Ozone. Yes, it will sanitize the fridge and freezer at the 50ppm it produces in the sealed sections but once you OPEN the door to the fridge you will INHALE that Ozone while loading or unloading the fridge. THAT is NOT healthy for you or me.
HOWEVER, I give it 4 stars because of how I am going to use it safely. Nothing cleans a fridge better than ozone because generally air is usually shared with the freezer. So, a few times a month I will put this in the fridge overnight while nobody is opening the fridge to let it sanitize and then remove it in the morning and take the batteries out so I put it back in it\u2019s box to store until the next sanitizing date I choose. For this particular use only I would consider it safe to use and earns 4 starts. But I would never use it 24/7 as advertised on the box because every time you opened the fridge or freezer you would inhale a blast of ozone which is not a good thing. You can clean the inside messes spilled in your fridge and then use this overnight only to sanitize and you will have the most sanitary fridge start up for the week! Use this safely like this and it\u2019s 4 stars. I left one star off because I thought the use advertising was wrong on this product and should be modified to what I suggest above.", "label": 1}

Clean your car's engine with caution. ALWAYS cover major parts like the Alternator, Mass Flow Sensor (connected to air intake), Distributor (if your car has one) and Air Intake (if easily exposed to water, can cause damage to engine as air is sucked into the engine and water in the engine will bring bad results). You can use Plastic bags to cover these parts.
{ REVIEW }
I'm sure everyone like myself pop up the hood in our cars and then say "Wow, that's pretty dirty in there, doesn't look like it when I 1st bought my car anymore". I spent a good amount of time looking at YouTube videos on how to Engine Clean. There are a few choice in terms of products, such as GUNK Engine Degreaser, B33, Purple, etc. Many of those product have good results but leaves a pretty strong chemical type of a smell.
I read the reviews that stated this is one of the best at removing those heavy grease, dirt and is also safe. I purchase the 1 Gallon bottle and also went to Home Depot and purchase a Spray bottle for $1.78. I mix it to 4:1 ration (4 parts water to 1 part solution) by following the guidelines on the side of the spray bottle. What surprise me is that this Grand Slam Engine Degreaser doesn't have a strong smell and has a soapy like feeling to it.
First I cover up the Alternator (some people don't, but I do), then I cover up the Mass Air Flow Sensor. All with plastic bags. Make sure your car's engine is cool and not hot. I don't pre-wash the engine, I just spray the engine with the solution and make sure NOT to spray the belts. I then use a brush (you can buy at the dollar store) and start scrubbing away. This helps the solution do it's job. After a few minutes, I use a regular Garden Hose to hose it off, then I use a LEAF BLOWER to dry the Engine bay out. You can use a towel, I just happen to have a Leaf Blower to make it faster.
Once it is all dried out. It's time to give the engine the new car look. I don't like those super shinny spray. I like a nice clean smooth spray that doesn't leave those crazy shine. I use Meguiar's G4016 Supreme Shine Protectant [[ASIN:B001O7LX6S Meguiar's G4016 Supreme Shine Protectant - 16 oz.]]. This give it a new car look without the crazy oily shine.
{ CONCLUSION }
This Grand Slam Engine Degreaser does it's job at cleaning the Engine bay very well. Now if your car's engine is super dirty with heavy oil build-up, you might have to do this process multiple times. I prefer this Grand Slam Engine Degreaser because of the low oder, so it doesn't leave any oder behind when you are done washing it away. Others on the market does. I still have plenty left for maybe 10-15 cars of cleaning.", "label": 1}

I took some right when I opened the box since my stomach was upset.... I'm pretty sensitive so I erred on the side of caution and took only 3-4 drops to start with. Immediately I could feel it calming the stomach and about 10 minutes later the senna kicked in - very minor cramps. I've always been very very sensitive to senna - I wish I could get the Swedish with no senna!
2nd day I took 3-4 drops in the AM with no cramping this time and will continue taking it in this way until I get up to the full teaspoon amount. I definitely feel better/different in just a day with no heartburn or acid reflux happening during dinner last night. I should say I took the drops in about an ounce of water - no taste at all.
To all those who are really sensitive - I would say start off with only a few drops. Its because its pretty concentrated anyway and frankly, our modern diet just doesn't have any of these types of bitters within it on a daily basis. I juice a lot and figured that the kale and other bitter veggies would give me enough but even still, it did not!
I will try to remember and check back in after a couple of months!
Update: 7/3/14 - I wanted to update on the progress. The Swedish Bitters continue to do what they do best, cleanse and assist digestion. One thing I have noticed with these is that they do help cleanse the liver/gall bladder pretty substantially. If someone has any parasites this stuff may chase them out of hiding and into the digestive track and thus the cramping ensues. For a couple of days I took drops in the morning and the afternoon to see what would happen and had cleansing and die-off symptoms. I realize that the liver / gallbladder area are pretty difficult to cleanse so there is almost always something lurking that a normal bowel or 'whole body' cleanse cannot reach. I should say that I do regular liver cleanses every month or 2 and anyone that does these also knows that they are successful depending on any parasite activity. I've since dropped the dosage back down to 4 drops in the AM only.
Update: 7/28/14 - So, in the past weeks I've been increasing the drop amounts in the morning and now up to a full dropper. This does not bother my system or stomach at all. The last liver cleanse I did was more successful and I felt amazing afterwards. I will continue on the bitters up to the dosage on the bottle and report back. I raised my stars to 5 because this product is really doing what its intended to do, just go slow with it at first!", "label": 1}

I was optimistic in the idea but skeptical that it would work so quickly and be so easy to use! I did a LOT of comparison shopping before deciding on these: let me tell you what I found.
First of all, you get four cups with this set: two identical larger cups and two identical smaller cups. The idea is to use the same size cups simultaneously over symmetrical areas of the face. I haven't found myself to be that coordinated yet, but here's what I do: my main concern/area of need was between my eyes on my forehead. I've heard people refer to this as the 11s - the two lines you get in between your eyebrows from squinting. Well, I've been an avid squinter all my life. I live in Florida, the Sunshine State, so there's that aspect, and then my close-up vision has gotten bad so I squint to read small print up close. This has taken a toll on my forehead. I find that I can apply [[ASIN:B00FZPTL7S Trader Joe's Vitamin Oil E, 4 Ounce]] after the shower and then use one of the larger cups between my eyebrows, moving it gently up and across both sides of my forehead, kind of making a circular triangle, if you will.
I kid you not - I did this two nights in a row, then took a day off, then did it another night ... maybe I've done it every other night for about 10 days now. I went for a run today and got out of the shower and I can't believe how smooth my forehead looks! These silicone cups are fantastic! The directions are really easy to follow, and this set is truly the best price-point out there. You want the clear silicone so you can make sure you're not capturing a wrinkle and/or giving yourself a hickie. You want to be able to see increased blood flow to the area and I'm not sure how you can gauge that when using a pink or purple-tinted cup.
The soft scrubber is great for facewashing or even just facial massage. I honestly have no complaints with this set at all. As a first-time user, I'm thrilled. The company reached out after purchase just to make sure I was happy with the product. Shipping was quick and Prime. Packaging was great. If you're considering facial cupping, this is the way to go. It blows my mind that there are sets out there that cost upward of $60 - I'm not sure what those would do that this doesn't, other than you're paying for that company to advertise. Look here - no advertising, a great company with great customer service providing a great product at a great price. What's not to love? :-)", "label": 1}

Sure I could freeze some, but food never tastes quite the same when reheated, so when I was offered the opportunity to receive these Wholeness Home Bake and Serve Bowls with Spill Guards in exchange for testing and review, I was happy to accept.
These 3.5" w x 2.5" deep Bake Ware Bowls are the perfect size for an Individual Serving of Mac & Cheese, Casserole, Soup, Bread Pudding or anything else you can think of!
The are made of Non Porous Stoneware, which means they won't absorb food odors, flavors or stains.
The feature I love the most is the Silicone Spill Guard!
All too often, the foods I love to bake the most end up dripping down the sides of the bowls an onto the cookie sheet, leaving me with a big mess to clean up.
For testing purposes I decided to treat myself to my Homemade Baked Mac & Cheese.
I removed the bowls from the Attractive, Easy to Gift Wrap Box and Styrofoam Inner Packaging.
As suggested by Uniware in the easy to understand instructions that came in the box, I gave the Bowls, Lids and Spill Guards a quick wash before using them.
Then I par cooked my noodles in a saucepan, mixed them together with my milk, butter and favorite cheeses and filled the Bake and Serve Bowls with Spill Guards in place.
I topped them off by sprinkling some crushed up garlic and butter flavored croutons over the top and set the Lids in place.
Into the oven they went and I sat down to read while I waited for my Mac and Cheese to cook, stomach growing the entire time.
When the stove timer told me it was time to remove them from the oven, I was very pleased to find that my Mac and Cheese had cooked evenly, retained it's moisture and the croutons even had a bit of a crunchy brown texture from the heat generated by the Stoneware Lids.
Best of all, the Spill Guards had protected my cookie sheet from sticky melted cheese drips!
I removed the Spill Guards and was pleased to find that they had performed exactly as described. My Homemade Mac and Cheese looked like it had been prepared in a fine restaurant and it tasted delicious!
Clean up was a breeze with some soapy water, a sponge and a hot water rinse. No scrubbing needed! These Bake and Serve Bowls are also Dishwasher Safe for those who are fortunate enough to own one.
As I could only eat one, I put the other in the refrigerator and warmed it up in the microwave the next day for my lunch. The Stoneware kept the mac & cheese moist and tasting as good as it did the night before.
Uniware shipped quickly and offered excellent follow up to my order. I found them to be a very pleasant company to do business with.
I am extremely satisfied with these Wholeness Home Bake and Serve Bowls and will be purchasing another set come Holiday time to gift to my
sister for her and her daughter.
Well deserving of the A+++ Recommendation I am giving them!!", "label": 1}

When I first started using this pump, I found it was much more comfortable than the one I had been using at the hospital. However, having flat nipples, it became increasingly difficult to pump. I assumed it was because of the type of pump, but now (11 months later) I know that pumping just takes some getting used to! I switched to a different pump (the Philips Avent Comfort Double Electric Pump) and used it for 10 months, not realizing that pain during pumping is actually NOT normal. The Avent was a great pump for most of the time I used it, but over time my nipples became traumatized from the hard suction and incorrectly sized breast cups. Pumping started out being awkward-feeling and uncomfortable, to being extremely painful. My nipples were constantly swollen and red, and super enlarged. Because of the pain, I really couldn't pump more than 2-3 ounces at a time (dropping down from 5-8 ounces at a time!), so in desperation I switched back to the Simplisse breast pump. At first, my nipples had become so engorged I had to use nipple cream to be able to comfortably use this Simplisse as there are no larger sized breast cups available, but over time the cream (which was olive oil-based) started to degrade the silicone parts. (Never use any oil-based lubricants on any silicone. It melts the silicone!)
The Simplisse was fantastic, much more comfortable than the Avent Comfort pump, but the nipple oil I had been using ruined the pump parts! I contacted the company directly to replace 2 parts, and they sent me an entire collection kit (everything but the pump) for free! I received the kit within 2 days, and I am so glad! By this time my nipples had returned to their normal size, so I was able to comfortably use the Simplisse without any nipple cream.
It has been a couple of weeks, and I am LOVING the Simplisse pump. I pump for less time, less often, and am pumping more milk than I ever did with the pinch-y Avent! The SImplisse pump has a different suction that more closely mimics a baby's suction, and offers flow and speed controls. It's a little louder than the Avent pump, but the silicone breastcups and gentle suction make this SO much more comfortable to use -- no pain! Just be sure to follow the directions EXACTLY when putting it together -- and in removing them! My husband accidentally snapped a piece off the top lid holding the valve because he didn't realize the trick to removing!
PROS: gentle suction makes this a more comfortable pump; fast let-down; different controls for speed and flow; easy to clean the parts (BUT be gentle with the white valves - dish brushes can scratch them!); pump a lot
CONS: a little loud; sensation takes some getting used to if you are accustomed to a hard suction pump; parts are a little tricky at first to put together (BUT once you know how it is easy!)", "label": 1}

The metal bestows upon stainless its resistance to corrosion and rust.
That rust resistance of stainless, though, comes at a price. First, stainless tends to be a softer form of steel, which means it often won't hold an edge as well as carbon steel. That's right: carbon steel stays sharper longer than stainless.
Second, and this is really important, carbon steel, despite being harder than stainless steel, is way easier to sharpen than stainless.This is critical because, in my experience, knives that are used frequently simply don't stay very sharp for long. Sure, they stay sharp enough to do their job reasonably well, and certainly sharp enough to cut you if you slip, but not high-performance, precision sharp.

Before I write my opinion, I have to say that the power of placebo cannot be underestimated. Yet, I don't think it was placebo that made me recall my forgotten French language skills, because I cannot explain how I started talking in French half an hour after my first pill! My mood was lifted above the clouds, and I could multitask effeciently, without giving second thoughts to what I was doing or stopping halfway to refocus. Honestly, it was like my mental abilities were trapped and suddenly after I took my first pill they were freed! I actually had a class in college on the same day after I took my first dose, and during that class I was having an engaging, and sophisticated conversations with my professor, I could even point out his mistakes, and saw the flaws to his arguments as clear as the sun. Under regular circumstances, I wouldn't participate in long conversations. but on that day I felt like saying what I wanted to say, without worry or fear of being judged, it became clear to me that this drug can do things I never thought any drug could acheive. I felt like a God for a day. It *did* give me laser focus. However, I feel that it also raised my blood pressure, and I had a feverish feeling, like my brain was on Speed. Thankfully, that worrying effect didn't last long. The thing I noticed the most after taking this drug is that I had a tenfold increase in my multitaking skills, I was reading something and listening to something else entirely and I noticed that I could actually focus on both without having second thoughts. I could apprehend both. If I could attribute the biggest benefit this drug had on me, it's the noticable increase in my multitasking skills. The second day was not as good as the first. While I took my first pill in the evening, my second dose was taken the morning after, I felt all the bad side effects from the drug. I could still feel that my multitasking skills were improved, but I had a slight headache and I felt feverish again and I also felt jittery. I have Hashimoto thyroiditis. I believe I didn't feel as good as the first time because I took my second dose in the morning, closer to my daily thyroid prescription. Since I noticed that the best effects of Optimind happened to me during the evening, I think I'll revert to the same time I took my first pill, and see how it goes. I'll continue taking 1 pill a day at least for 10-15 days to assess my tolerance, and from there I'll increase the dosage to 2 pills a day.
To everyone who is reading my review. Go ahead and try this drug. Honestly, I would never tell anyone around me about this, unless it's someone I truly care about. This is truly the limitless pill you've been waiting for. I hope in the future caffeine is removed from this drug and replaced with something better. Maybe something to help with the noticeable increase in blood pressure and stomach bloating.

We participated in numerous outdoor activities with our friends, from kayaking the chain of beautiful lakes inside Minneapolis, to spending a day on a pontoon on a private lake with other groups. We used this lotion at the onset of each day's activities and it seemed to work well for very many hours without a need to re-apply, even though we were playing on or in water all day, every day. I neglected to apply it to my shins for the kayaking event, and I was sunburned below the knees (my bad planning, as I was expecting a different kayak design than we rented and the opening exposed my lower legs to the sun). I did not have sunburn anywhere that I applied the lotion. The next day and night, when playing at a private lake outside the Twin Cities, the bugs were more plentiful than I have (almost) ever seen, probably due to an excessively wet season here in the Land of 10,000 Lakes. Bug deterrant is a #1 conversation here, where the mosquitoes can strip you of at least 10 pounds of unwanted (along with your essential) flesh per hour if you are not slathered in DEET and gasping for breath and dying along with the bugs you hope to deter. Anyway, after several days and evening in the great outdoors, after using this Avon lotion, I came away with only TWO bug bites, and I think my partner (who also used this Avon lotion), had none. Our friends and companions, who did not use this lotion, were ravaged by bugs early and had to run, screaming and swatting, to the house in retreat as soon as the sun set. The lotion was easy to carry and did not come unopened when tossed about. A smaller 'hole' design in the bottle that could be clipped on with a small caribeaner (spelling??) would have been nice. You have to shake the bottle to mix the ingredients before applying. It rubs on smoothly and seems to absorb and stay on without a mess, although you will be able to feel it on your skin until you shower it off. We were not aware of any side effects of using it, although we are both somewhat have a sensitivity to strong odors or scents, and we would give this a 5 if it had much less odor. That said, the smell of this lotion is much less offensive than other bug sprays that have made me sick in my lifetime. Another advantage is being able to carry just one bottle instead of two or three on your outdoor excursions. THAT is probably why we made it through the weekend with less sunburn and bug bites than our friends. They were applying lotions, one or the other, throughout the day. I am thinking that this might be a good gift to buy for our friends. Most importantly, combining lotion functions into fewer lotions uses less planetary resources and creates less pollution than producing only one-function lotions. If the packaging was made from renewable resources and used renewable energy for manufacturing, plus if the bottle was 100% bio-degradable, I would rate the product a 10 and would buy stock in the company.

We used it for several months without any issues of mold or mildew, funny smells, or any quality issues. It provided a great platform for my kiddo to play. Looking at current reviews, I don't see how anyone has a problem with this not supporting their baby, unless they are using it on a baby who isn't sitting upright yet. It is assistance to keep a baby who can sit up from flopping over. Regarding buoyancy issues - it fills with water which weights it down and keeps it from bobbing around and throwing an unstable little one off balance. Using a few inches of water in the tub - all I still use with my toddler - works perfectly. He was able to sit, reach, play, splash, and enjoy his bath in comfort. It was much safer than me trying to hold on to a slippery baby in the tub, and softly supportive. I figured out an easier way of draining the water from it - I would let the tub drain while drying and dressing baby, then jump in and walk on it to get the excess water out. Then, put the hook through, give it a hoist and hang it from a hook in the shower. Worked great. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I think this was exactly what my precocious little one would have picked for himself.
Old Review: We have been using this for a couple of months now and I love it. We got it before my son had perfectly mastered sitting by himself (around 5.5 months) and it provided the perfect amount of support. Now that he can sit well and is confident, the bottom of the hug tub keeps him from sliding around and provides a nice platform for him to explore. This is also great for combining bath times with an older sibling. Pay attention to care instructions which say not to use washes with lotions or oils because they will prevent the hug tub from drying completely. We hang it over the tub to dry and occasionally throw it in the dryer on low to get it dry and have had no problems with odor or anything. Hanging it outside to finish drying is an even better option. It is really heavy when wet (fresh from the bath, but you can squeeze most of the water out by squishing it in the tub, and it drains quickly and becomes easier to move much faster). When it is nearly dry (several hours or overnight) I put it in the dryer for a few minutes to finish it off if I need to (I live in higher humidity). Also some other reviews mentioned that the front is open and the risk to your baby, but this is a bath aide, not a safety device. I sit right by the tub and I have never had a problem preventing him from falling into the water when he gets excited, but this is so much better for dealing with a squirmy slippery baby than a lot of the other things I've tried.

Please note, I have not been reimbursed for this review nor have I been sent this product for free. I simply purchased this on impulse from an Amazon deal.
Long story short, you MUST use this with exercise to see the results. This is a thermogenic, so the more you put into your workout, the more you will get from this product.
I've used Hydroxycut (original) back in the day, as well as Oxy Elite Pro (Original) and SKALD comes VERY close to these original formulas.
In my personal experience, I had a plateau. Most of you out there know how difficult it is to get out of it when you're losing weight and on a disciplined diet plan. You're thinking to yourself, "What else can I do? I'm doing all I can!"
As to hunger suppression, it does better than most products I've used. When taken about 30-minutes before you eat lunch (I do not take it every single time I eat), it does seem to keep me feeling full, longer. I then take another pill later in the afternoon to curb later cravings. This does seem to work. However, don't think that this is going to put a Ball & Chain on your brain activity for craving potato chips, tortilla chips, chocolate, or whatever else you may want. It won't. It just makes it easier. And when it's easier...YOU CONTROL WHAT YOU EAT. Not that bag of chips in the pantry. For example, I have better concentration on my eating habits and I simply grab a banana and/or yogurt later in the evening.
I give this product 4 stars because I want to see some improvements in the increase in thermogenic potential as well as making an even more aggressive hunger avoidance formula. I'd give this a 4.5 stars if I could.
In any case, I highly recommend it. Remember, you MUST exert your body to get the full benefits of this product.
For a stack, I'd recommend the Animal Paks (yes, those 9 or so horse pills). If you're taking additional caffeine pills (200mg per pill), you might want to hold off until you get an idea of how SKALD interacts with your own stacks. And this brings up another important point: SKALD doesn't have any major side effects, even with mixing with other aggressive stacks. This is from my own experience, so it could vary for you, and this is why I say take it easy on the caffeine.
Just a word of advice. Stacks are most beneficial and less dangerous on the body when you are working out. This is because the body is using the supplements versus sitting on a couch, expecting a miracle, and letting the supplements just sit there...wreaking havoc on your system because your body isn't moving.
In conclusion, you have a product that does not have major side effects (in my case...none), a product that increases your metabolism during workouts, a product that more than likely will stack and integrate just fine into your current supplement cocktails, and a product that will curb your hunger cravings and allow you to choose a more healthy snack if really needed.", "label": 1}

I waited this long to write a review to see if I had any actual benefits. I'm a middle-aged female (50), disabled, diabetic (controlled) and not very active/working. I stopped drinking sodas almost 10 years ago, can't believe it's been that long, I drink tea, not coffee and I'm a non-smoker. I think it's important to know where one starts with this type of product in order to know if it's going to be beneficial to others.
I've had terrible teeth all my life, cavaties, braces, root canals, failed bridges, blah, blah, blah. I believe the state of your teeth is hereditary as well as self-care. My mom has terrible teeth, my dad does not; I got the bad teeth, my sister did not, same thing with my husband and children. There may be something said for ADHD in there, IDK. I was horrible at brushing when I was younger but got better as I got older.
My teeth may have been bad but my gums were always in good shape; remember to brush the gums or this type of thing doesn't really work.
So now here I am at 50 with missing teeth, tooth pain and lots of cavaties and no dental insurance for the last ten years. I noticed in the last couple of years that my teeth were yellowing and I actually had one tooth break while eating; the tooth was hollow inside!
Any of the whitening toothpastes didn't work. I was limited to using Sensodyne and the like. I tried Crest strips and things like that with no results. I found this while surfing around on Amazon. Read up on it here and on the website for the company. I chose this one because it had double the amount of hydroxyapitate. One day I noticed that my teeth were a lot whiter; like the clock had turned back 30 years. It's removed stains and the plaque along the gums (gotta clean those gums) and I want to think it helped build up a chipped tooth. My teeth are smoother so it has filled in those little cracks that you don't really see. They also feel stronger. I can eat apples and carrots again whereas before I had a hard time chewing them.
I know this has been a long post, but thought you'd want to know how this affected me and my situation before embarking on your own journey to improving your teeth. This beats any of the American made tooth whitening products, well OTC ones anyway. I'll be using this one as long as I can. This one tube has lasted me 4 months, almost 5. So it doesn't take a lot to use.
Recommendations for use:
1. Brush and floss two to the times a day.
2. Brush for 3-5 minutes - I know it hard to think of doing but it pays off
3. Brush the gums - very important if you want the plaque to go away.
4. Use an electric toothbrush - Oral-B, Sonicare, even the battery powered ones are better than just a normal brush.", "label": 1}

Here's a man that dedicated most of his life to the city of Philadelphia -a city he truly admired and considered home- and here's a man that has quite possibly the best voice I have ever heard.
The sound of his voice alone should be enough proof the guy had talent, but another thing I always admired about Harry Kalas is the way he calls the game right down the middle, and even though you know he wants the Phillies to win because of the emotion and sincerity in his voice, he always had a ton of respect for the teams the Phillies were facing.
I absolutely loved the way he would focus on the game itself and not jump off-topic suddenly talking about things unrelated to the game itself. There needs to be more baseball announcers out there who are like that today. When the announcers pay attention to the game and show emotion and excitement, the viewers do as well, and that's why Phillies games were never boring when Harry was calling them.
Every Saturday summer night for the last 15 years, it's been great to come inside after a swim in my backyard pool or a game of horseshoes and turn on Phillies baseball at 7 pm (and sometimes Friday nights as well). Of course Sunday is considered the biggest day of the week for baseball (the day we always see the Phillies and the other 29 teams play unless there's a rain delay or something).
Today was the first Sunday I didn't hear Harry's magnificent voice and it was hard not to think about Harry while the game was going on. The guy who has replaced Harry Kalas (Tom McCarthy) did a great job, but I think even he was aware that people at home were missing Harry Kalas. It was just a tough game this afternoon for the announcers and players alike.
For the Phillies to come back in the bottom of the 9th this afternoon and win the game in dramatic fashion with a 2-point homerun was amazing, and just shows how great the Phillies are, and why we should give them all the support in the world.
But nothing, NOTHING will ever beat the sound of Harry Kalas' voice during the final play of the World Series last year. Listening to the sound of his voice as he made the final call to end the game, I could sense a sigh of relief in his voice, and a hint of emotion so strong that it sounded like happy tears coming from Harry's true feelings. What a great moment for him to see the team he supported since 1971 win another world championship.
I apologize for not talking more about this product, but you should know anything that has Harry Kalas' name connected to it, it's going to be nothing but quality from start to finish. Rest in peace Harry Kalas, you will be loved in Philadelphia for a very long time, that's a fact.", "label": 1}

I was eating so much aspirin and acetaminophen that my doctor told me to stop, but gave me no alternative. This was my alternative. I still must sometimes take some aspirin as well, but I swallow a lot less of it thanks to this stuff. My headaches are mainly caused by deteriorating vertebra in my neck so I spray this on my neck and base of my skull as a preventative. My neck always aches and this helps reduce that ache and keep it from spreading up into my head. If a headache does start to creep in I'll cover my eyes and spray my temples or wherever the ache starts to rear it's ugly head on My ugly head. ;) It's at this point where I'll also take some aspirin. I smear this on my stiff aching arthritic hands as well. It doesn't eliminate the pain, but it does help.
I also suffer from restless leg syndrome and doctors are either unwilling or unable to address it. Well, actually my issue is restless arm. My arms start twitching within ten minutes of going to bed. Occasionally, my legs join in and rarely my entire body. At the same time my arms are doing their own thing my feet will go numb. Drives me crazy and it's impossible to sleep. Get up, walk around for a few minutes then go back to bed and try to get to sleep before it starts again. It's a dismal competition that can go on for hours. Now I spray this on my upper arms and on my feet shortly before going to bed about every other night. I was doing it every night until I forgot one night and had no twitching or numb symptoms. Humph, maybe I don't need it Every night. Since then it's every other night unless I start getting symptoms. Then out comes the bottle. IIt's my desire to use as little as possible 'cause this stuff is kind of expensive, but all too often the relief is worth every squirt of the bottle. Now, my jumping arms and numb feet are practically a thing of the past. I ordered a bunch more of this Healing Bone Water.
I talk about spraying and squirting. That's because I have a spray bottle that I just refill. All I can say is that my aspirin consumption is way down thanks to this stuff. I just wish I could find it cheaper. Just be sure not to get it on any open wounds or in your eyes. Ouch!
Update: For those people with restless leg syndrome - twitchy legs, arms and/or body or that weird crawly feeling in your feet this does help, but I finally found a Neurologist that was able to stop those symptoms completely by prescribing PRAMIPEXOLE DIHYDROCHLORIDE. It's main use is for Parkinson's Disease, but it has other uses with this being one of them and it has given me tremendous relief. I am not recommending the drug to you.

I'm starting to loose track of the ones I've tried, so we'll just leave it as the only two I didn't love were their glazed donut and their coconut cream. The glazed donut I felt was too hard, and the coconut cream reminded me too much of coconut nougat candy, which I'm not really fond of. Unlike some of their bars, I actually think this one is well named. Super well named. It really does taste like a cinnamon twist roll, I was actually pleasantly surprised on that. Thumbs up, guys :)
Like all of their bars I've tried, these do have a thin sheen of oil coating them, I'm guessing to keep them from sticking to the wrapper. Easily wiped off, and I totally think it's worth putting up with because of the naturalness of the ingredients they use. I love that about their bars in general. I also love that they don't use artificial sweeteners, but rather use monk fruit, which has a glycemic index of zero and comes with zero calories. The artificial sweeteners many brands use come with a host of undesirable side effects that vary depending on the type, and some brands load their bars up with so much sugar or corn syrup it may as well be a candy bar. If you have any sort of reason medical or otherwise for wanting or needing to be careful of your sugar intakes, their products are a great choice, because monks fruit doesn't have any sort of bitter taste, and it doesn't have any of the side effects that come with the other artificial stuff.
Now since this is a vegan friendly product, it is worth noting that they do list the amino acids and the quantities on the bottom of the box and I didn't really have any problems with what I saw there, it looks like the bases are well enough covered. For me, I'm not vegan, I'm not paleo, I'm just generally a vegetarian, but I think their bars flat out rock because they're not loaded up with unnecessary crud, they use healthier sweetening alternatives, they use natural ingredients, and most of the ones I've tried taste awesome. This is honestly one of the better ones, my other two favorites though are not in their vegan line so I'm guessing they're not as relevant to you (but in case you're not strictly vegan, the sunflower butter ones and the primal thin sweet cream are also super awesome).
So I did enjoy these, would actually buy them again, and have no problem recommending them. And since I'm starting to sound like a spokeswoman for their company, I should say...I buy everything I review for my own use, I don't review free samples of anything, and I'm not in any way affiliated with anybody or anything I've ever reviewed. I just genuinely love their protein bars and think they are overall a superior product.", "label": 1}

We have an older house with metal pipes and they clog frequently since they are now rough on the inside and hold gunk. After having plumbers come out to snake different pipes several times, we heard and tried Green Gobbler, as an enzymatic cleaner, with some success. When I came across the Eco Strong Enzyme Drain Cleaner (2 oz bottle x 5), I decided to try them and compare. The small bottle option is a nice buying option to be able to try and product to see how it works for you. The pricing ends up being comparable to the Green Gobbler 2 application bottle.
I\u2019ll start by saying that it does seem to have worked after one application on a slow running bathtub. It wasn\u2019t completely stopped up, but was starting to run slow. This is a place we\u2019ve had trouble with in the past for different reasons, but I thought I\u2019d try to nip the problem before things got worse.
What I like about this product:
* It has a nice scent, but isn\u2019t overwhelming. There is no harsh chemical smell.
* It\u2019s really easy to use. You just shake the bottle well and pour it down the drain. I did make sure I wiped around the drain for any product that may have splashed since we have a cat that gets in the tub. That\u2019s it, just don\u2019t use the drain for at least a couple of hours but preferably overnight. Unlike Green Gobbler, you don\u2019t have to flush with hot water after the treatment. I liked not having that extra step.
* It\u2019s made in the United States
What I didn\u2019t like about the product:
* It wasn\u2019t clear to me from the product description, but they recommend treating three consecutive days. If there are no problems, then once a month maintenance. This means with the 5 bottles you\u2019ll get one clogged drain use from the package and two maintenance treatments. I thought I\u2019d get five clogged drain treatments from the package. I saw better flow after one treatment and will probably just do the one unless I start seeing decreased flow again soon.
* The product does not have a child proof lid or safety seal. I was pretty surprised by that. I don\u2019t have kids in the house, but if you do, you\u2019ll need to store it safely. As soon as you open a lid, the liquid is exposed, so just take care. You really don\u2019t want to get it on your skin.
I really like the idea of using an enzymatic product to unclog the drains. This one seems to work pretty well. I can\u2019t speak to how well it would work on a fully clogged drain, and it probably depends on what is actually clogging the drain. I found it a bit more convenient than Green Gobbler. I do hope they become more safety conscious with their packaging.", "label": 1}

Our house has a couple of areas that always smell musty, although we can\u2019t figure out why, and I put two each of the biggest bags (there are four of those) in each of those areas, and they\u2019ve helped reduce the odor in there, and make things smell a little fresher. I also put the medium ones in a couple of our closets, where things get a little stuffy. It\u2019s a little harder to tell whether those are having any impact in there, because there weren\u2019t a lot of smells to begin with anyway, just kind of stuffy. And I wouldn't really expect these to do much about \"stuffiness\". But they certainly haven\u2019t hurt anything. And finally, I put the other two in my \"Ugg-like\" boots that I keep at work, for when my feet get cold. Those are a real smelly challenge (!), and the charcoal has helped with the smells from those too. The fabric the bags are made from is nothing spectacular, but it\u2019s pretty, and they are well made and look nice. So, all-in-all, I\u2019m happy.
There are a couple of little issues with these, though, just to be aware of. The wall-hooks in the first picture aren\u2019t included, although the two with the little buttons do have the strings on them. (I have no idea why two of them have buttons and strings and the others don't.) And, when they were shipped, the bags came just all tumbled together, and I had to come back to the website to re-read how to rejuvenate them. That\u2019s by putting them in the sun for a couple of hours every month or so. I live in southern California, so that\u2019s a viable option for me, but I wonder a little bit about folks who live in rainy or snowy climates during the winter. It might make sense to offer a low-heat oven option also, if there is one. I\u2019ve rejuvenated them once, by putting them in the sun for the afternoon, and although I wasn\u2019t really sure if they had stopped working, they definitely seem to still be working. And I\u2019m about to do it again, after a second month. I\u2019ll come back an update my review if they seem to stop working at some point.
All-in-all, though, these Nature Fresh charcoal bags seem to do what they claim to do. And although it would have been nice to receive some hooks or something to hang them with, the product webpage doesn\u2019t say any hooks are included. In fact, most of the pictures show them being used without hooks, so I\u2019m not going to take any stars off for that. (If I could do half-stars, I might have taken a half-star off\u2026but it\u2019s not worth a whole star.) Finally, please note that I received these bags for free from Amazon\u2019s Vine Voice program, in exchange for my honest review.", "label": 1}

Right off the bat, the battery would not reach full chparge and one of the little wheels was bent preventing it from standing on its back. However the battery was the big deal. After many calls to the company and letting the battery charge for days like they asked, they finally agreed to send out a technician with a wheel, battery, and by that time the tiller had come loose. I waited for weeks and finally took the scooter to my mechanic and he fixed the tiller and wheel, but I still drove with this battery whose charge I was uncertain of. But it seemed ok, not anywhere near the range as advertised. But very serviceable. At some point the battery began to show full charge for a few seconds when powered up, so I was pleased and began to use the scooter more. Also the regenerative braking system began to light the 3rd charge light on the battery indicator, so I was convinced the battery was as charged as it was going to get.
Yesterday January 1, 2019, I took the scooter to the park and used a ramp to get to a grove. Very easy grade. On the way back up, the scooter performed very well as I took it slowly up the ramp. The battery never degraded, the charge indicator held steady at the middle setting. 2/3rds up the ramp the scooter stopped accompanying a burning smell. I pushed the scooter the ramp and to the car, placed it upright and touched the motor. It was VERY hot. I don\u2019t think the 160W motor is powerful enough. I have had other scooter with 300 and 350 Watt motors that never did this. Out of money for something I\u2019ve only had a few months.
More to the story. Enhance sent me a new scooter!! It behaves totally differently. The battery problem I had is gone, and the scooter handles ramps and little inclines smoothly. The other little annoyances are not with this scooter. I am going say I got a lemon. That makes sense to me, since they still have QA issues. My new scooter was almost perfect, but there was no air in the tires, and one of the tires requires a 90\u00b0 fitting to check or put air in the tire because the valve stem is tight against the rim. Something they may have discovered if they had put air in the tires. Also try finding a 90\u00b0 fitting on a air pump at a gas station.
So I am bumping them to 3 star for the product.
Hey. Remember the tire problem on the new scooter? Well that tire kept on leaking. It went flat at a plant store in Michigan. I noticed the battery losing power sooner than usual, but not the tire. I mean the battery was fresh, and previously I had put miles on it before this charge, so I thought something was wrong. I headed out of the store when the scooter stopped and that burning smell returned. Aren\u2019t these motors fused?!!! My friends travel scooter stops when the motor gets overheated and makes you wait until it\u2019s cooled off. I guess the bad tired caused the motor to overwork, and it burned up. The second burned up motor in less than 6 months. Got to get off this ride for good.", "label": 0}

The first scooter was dead on arrival; all the lights worked, but the motor did not. The manufacturer put me through some work-around procedures on the phone, but the motor simply was dead. To their credit they immediately sent a replacement.
The second scooter at least did run, but the transmission made a loud "clunk" with every revolution. I sent the manufacturer a sound clip of this, and was assured they would solve my issue. I gave them a week to do so, and having not heard from them, gave them a call. It took them that long to decide I needed to send it back for repair. Well, after two strikes I decided to seek a refund. Clearly this relatively new product was having birthing issues.
Getting the refund now involved the retailer, Senior Com, and that was so difficult to do that I had to file a claim under Amazon's "A to Z Refund Policy." Until then, dealing with Senior Com was worse than having a root-canal at a lousy dentist! They did everything they could to delay, until Amazon stepped in. After that it took only a few days to see an improved attitude on the seller's part, and soon thereafter I received my refund from Amazon.
I will never do business with Senior Com as their motto is; "Once you have their money you never give it back." Thankfully Amazon was there to resolve my issue; but the whole protracted process took over a month, with lots of promises from Senior Com, but no follow up unless forced to do so by me and finally Amazon.
Pro:
1. The lightest, easiest to lift scooter on the market.
2. Beautiful design, but terrible assembly - I had to tighten almost every nut and bolt, including those that hold the tiller to the frame. Loose bolts can easily develop fractures that lead to failure, and in this critical part it could mean serious injury for a person.
3.Very good control of speed, both slow and fast.
4. Excellent turning radius - it can turn around in its length, and easily navigate through stores and small aisles.
5. Speedy
Cons:
1. Very poor motor and transmission
2. Poor customer service from Senior Com
3. Noisy transmission
4. Loose bolts throughout
5. Feels like it will fail within a few months of use.
Again, I really wanted to like this scooter, but $2,200 is far too much to pay for a shoddy product and unresponsive seller. I subsequently purchased a Pride Victory 10, and while it is not as portable, requiring a rear carrier, it is much better in quality and design. I do hope Triaxe can fix their scooter, and if they do I might reconsider buying one, but only through a local dealer that will be responsive and honest.", "label": 0}

I have managed five painful days of this stuff and tried mixing it with water and flavor drops, cranberry juice, orange juice and even grapefruit juice (hoping the acid and bitterness of grapefruit juice could mask the bitterness of the Pruvin, but I do not believe ANYTHING can mask the excessive sulphuric bitterness of this product.) The closest I can describe the taste is that of the pithe (the white part of the peel) of a lime or grapefruit that has been sprinkled heavily with some sort of industrial sulphur compound. People, I would love to tell you that this product works and maybe it does but I do not believe that anyone could actually tolerate the taste long enough to feel the benefits (they say it takes 2 months). So those reviews that say they have? I don't believe them. It is my opinion that those saying they have used it that long must be lying, or paid reviewers or must not have functional taste buds. I don't see how anyone could tolerate the taste long enough to find that out if it does what it claims to do. There certainly are no immediate effects except some sulphuric burps and an upset stomach along with revulsion. The science is based on Baylor research but from what little I could find about it on the Internet, it is not endorsed by those researchers. The only positive thing I have to say about this product is that the packaging is nice and fancy. However, in my opinion they should spend far less money on the box they send it to you in and more on developing a product that is palatable.

It includes a small silicone scrub brush - a nice touch, but something I personally won't use on my face. They are surprisingly hard in the package, not unlike a dry loofah, and must first be moistened to soften. Although the back of the package states that can take up to 15 minutes, that seemed greatly exaggerated - it takes a little under a minute to fully saturate and soften, and the texture is quite soft and even slippery. A thoughtful touch: Each sponge has a small string that you can hang it on, and an accompanying suction cup hook is provided, and this keeps it absolutely clean and off of your germy counter or soap dish.
So, I am sold. What I loved about it is that it takes virtually one drop of cleanser to foam up far beyond anything you'll need to completely cleanse both skin and neck - it produced a crazy amount of foam, and I found myself wringing it out several times to get rid of it. Not a bad thing as I spend a lot of money on cleansers and previously used a turkish washcloth which, believe me, required a good squirt to get even half as much foam. These are good sized sponges as well - not body sized, certainly, but more than adequate for your face and neck. Each one fits nicely in the palm of my hand.
There was some residual redness after using - that is attributed to my being vigorous with it to obtain the exfoliating benefits. It does exactly what it says - it gives you beautiful, glowing clean skin, and is definitely a part of my daily skin care regime. The sponges should be discarded after about a month, so this three pack gives you an easy three months of use.
I did not detect any noticeable difference between the three sponges aside from the color.
I received this at a discounted price for my review, but I don't mince criticisms. This was just something I really loved.", "label": 1}

I have fairly long but super straight lashes. Every single day I would curl my lashes with a heated up eyelash curler and wear waterproof mascara. In the summer months, no matter how great they looked in the morning the heat and humidity would make them fall flat instantly! How excited was I to find out there was something called eyelash perming and that I could do it myself!!
I quickly set out to find out how to do this and do it well! Watched many videos and read all the reviews. Finally settled on this kit. It came with TONS of stuff! Everything I knew I would need and more! Watched a few more videos and get right down to perming my straight lashes! Oh my gosh was this a pain to use! I expected it to be hard to get my lashes glue on correctly from watching the videos and reading the reviews but this was ridiculous! The glue was awful! Gloppy and soooo hard to get to work (just as hard to remove the huge glops of glue when you're finished too by the way!)
I persisted and managed to get the job done...Only problem...It didn't work! It curled some lashes slightly, others not at all making it way worse because I couldn't even get them to look good with my eyelash curler anymore!
I assume it was user error, watched more videos, waited a week and tried again! Exact same result! I was doing everything exactly as directed and had done considerable research on this before starting so I was confident it was not something I was doing wrong at this point.
Soooo, I ordered Dolly's Lash Lift kit (sold on Amazon for 49.99 but I found mine online elsewhere for ten dollars less). Dolly's worked beautifully! Everything about it is better!
-The silicone pads are more comfortable and easier to use.
-The glue was awesome! I had absolutely NO trouble gluing the pads to my lid or my lashes to the pad. It brushed on easily. Stuck to everything it was supposed to and nothing it wasn't. And it was super easy to get off too!
-The lotions are colored (pink for the perming lotion and blue for the other) making it really easy to make sure you've got it on evenly
-It came with easy to follow instructions
-Most importantly...It worked!! My lashes look amazing! Curled perfectly. Got up this morning and threw on a little mascara and I was good to go for the day!
I suppose it is possible that I just got a bad batch of this product. There is no expiration date on it...Maybe it was old and that's why it didn't work?? This kit did come with a lot of extras that the other, more expensive kit (Dolly's) didn't. Some of which I used with the Dolly perming kit. Some of which I'm not even sure what the purpose is?? Not sure but I highly recommend checking out this one before buying!! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008RN1QQO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_dp_T2_imctzb1MF94X2", "label": 0}

This is the only mask on the internet I found that works well without ruining eyelashes if you trim foam inserts since it's big enough to avoid that. :) It will help prevent dry eyes. While I don't use this as cold or warm compress, it may work for that, but I tried to use it once and it seemed to not release heat. But warm compresses are overrated, just a warm shower and meibomian massage then is more than enough, or wearing sealed safety glasses to keep eyelids warmer and oils flowing is enough. The far more important thing is to keep eyes wet at night, which this thing can do, even though not all use it for this purpose. :) I would not use this for cold compress since you want to barely touch eyelids and have full control, like wearing a glove and moving it, to avoid ocular damage from too much cold, which can be as bad as too much heat too. Keep your eyes happy and moist. :) For warm compress you can just warm them a little in warm water and use them as such, since mild heat may be better and do less damage; recall that heat increases oxidative stress and can damage vitreous gel and cornea, if overdone, so it's best to focus on gentler heat and other preventive measures of meibum regeneration, than extreme heat. :) The 2 billion dollar computers are not fixed with warming or cooling them up, if that was so it would be easy. It can be a costly 50 million dollar repair. Same with eyes. Think about an instrument, so expensive, does heating the whole of it fix it? Our tech is not advanced enough to heat only the eyelids, it heats the whole eye which is bad. Only Lipiflow avoids ocular heating, by heating only the eyelids with their meibum glands. So, don't go to extremes of heating eyes, but a little eyelid warmth is good. :)
Recall buying LacriPure saline eye drops (made for contacts-wearers, but anyone can use them) to keep eyes moist during daytime with minimal chemical toxicity, since it has water and salt only and 300 mOsm/L, the ideal osmolarity of our natural tears. Saline often works fine when our eyes are not too 'tired and dried out' :) Make sure your foam inserts in Tranquil Eyes are not pressing on the center of your eyeball, since this will give you glaucoma in the long run. Trim it in a perfect concave shape (for the upper half only, not lower) maybe to embrace your eye perfectly allowing you to not touch the eyelashes, yet keep eyes closed. I know this is hard, but at least, don't bend eyelashes and have some moisture there, get an amazon squirt bottle with purified water to wet them if they become dry in the middle of the night. :)", "label": 1}

First, the part that screws onto the bottle is better made so that the bottle does not leak. Lest this sound simplistic, the problems experienced with other bottles is that the moment the bottle is tipped over, it begins to leak. The amount of leakage increases as one squeezes. However, the rigidity of the screw top of this unit is such that leakage has not occurred.
Secondly, the spray is a bit more subtle. Some bottles have a single outlet for the water so there is one stream. This is sometimes desirable but not always. The Leka Travel Bidet has several smaller holes which allows for wider distribution of the water and probably an overall cleaner experience.
Since I am the first to review this particular model, I will repeat what I have written elsewhere about portable bidets. The word "portable" suggests the bidets are mainly useful when traveling, especially perhaps to countries that either do not routinely supply toilet tissue or where the tissue might not seem hygienic. However, it goes without saying that anyone who is sensitive to chemicals in the paper would probably like to consider such a bottle as an alternative to paper. Likewise, if one is concerned about the environment or using a composting toilet, these bottles have a real niche. They are also useful for people with motion issues, such as those recovering from surgery or whose infirmities or lack of agility interfere with good hygiene.
There are additional reasons to use such bottles. One can bring one's own water and perhaps reduce the risks associated with potentially contaminated water. It is also possible to medicate the water with essential oils or herbs to reduce risks of various types of microbial and fungal infections. As someone who travels a lot, I find these bottles very useful and I like the fact that this one has a cap for the nozzle. It seems like an extra touch to prevent both leakage and contamination. However, unlike the other models I have bought, this one does not have a carrying bag. Having never used the bags supplied, I do not regard this is a shortcoming.
For those who are concerned about where things are made, it would seem this is made in China. The print on the box is mostly in Chinese, but the suggestions for use include various medical conditions such as hemorrhoids and itchiness. The advice is aimed at ladies, but there is no reason that gents would not also find this very useful.
Update after long use:
A few ago, the little blue tip to the nozzle fell off. There are no threads and no sign of glue. It might therefore have simply been pushed into place. I cannot get it to stay in place. The bottle will still work but without as much control over the water flow and without the ability to direct the water. I think this is a design flaw and could easily be corrected with threads. In the meantime, I will try glue.", "label": 1}

If you are searching for help with hyperacidity, Chronic acid problems, Gerd etc. L glutamine can help. If you are on PPI's like Nexium etc. you have to wean yourself off. If you go off cold turkey you will almost certainly have terrible acid rebound occur. Instead slowly scale back your dosage over weeks to months, giving your body a chance to adjust. L glutamine naturally lowers gastric acidity, it also helps heal the stomach lining, and helps heal leaky gut. Going off of the PPI aciphex, I relied on L glutamine. Just one level teaspoon a few times a day really helped. For those of you suffering with hyperacidity and gerd, do yourself a favor and get a roll of PH test strip, test yourself, if the test strip turns yellow your system is highly acid. Those test strips test your saliva or urine, very easy, and they give you a concrete understanding of how acid you are. You learn to avoid acid provoking foods especially, chocolate, tomatoes, and spicey foods. Instead you eat more alkalyzing foods and drinks. A glass of water with a small slice of lemon squeezed into it is very alkalyzing. (Lemon turns alkaline in the body). If you do transition off of PPI's other things to use as you are doing so, Pepcid AC original is the one thing that does not rebound.(Tums causes acid rebound.) So, for when you need just a little extra help, have pepcid on hand. But don't just rely on it. It is a tool to use wisely as you are going off of PPIs. Change what you eat, have lots of good fresh salad and veggies, not tomatoes though. Do research, it really pays. And if lifting stuff causes the acidity to get worse or come back, you know you are not ready to lift.Right? I weaned off of Aciphex after 10years of a hyperacidity caused by an antibiotic. I will always be grateful to the people who wrote about their experiences and shared what helped.
It can take awhile to get your system back to normal, and to know what works for you. It is worth it. I still can't eat chocolate. But I am Soooo Happy, that I know what I can and cannot eat, and over a period of years I got back most of what I could do before....like lifting stuff and having a slice of tomato on a sandwich. Essential Stacks Clean L Glutamine is my go to brand now. There are others that are pretty good, but avoid any that have mag. stearate and fillers. Use only pure L Glutamine.

For some reason I pictured the little nodes moving in and out and was like, how is this safe? But they don't move. The whole thing just vibrates. It has 9 Programs (or variations of vibrations)
So, TO CLARIFY, this massages AROUND your eyes... not your eyes directly.. as that would just be dangerous.
I deal with sinus headaches a lot, so I'm always looking for devices that might provide some relief. THIS thing is awesome!
The vibrations are strong and it really just gets all the right spots around your eyes to loosen up all that tension!
It does put pressure around your eyes, so I could see some people not liking it for that if they're not used to it.
I am definitely used to it because pressure on these areas is one of the only things that seems to give me relief sometimes. (I discovered once after putting one of those long stretchy ice packs around my head that the tighter I wrapped the strap part around my brow bone, the better it felt... so sometimes my husband will come home to find me with... pretty much anything wrapped around my head trying to get rid of a migraine... headbands, sleep masks, long socks, bras... just whatever's on hand, lol. But THIS DEVICE IS FAR SUPERIOR!)
I'm so glad I took the leap and bought this! It's very relaxing. It IS loud because the vibration is pretty strong; but the loosening of the muscles achieved by the vibration makes it not really a thing. Basically, pop a couple ibuprofen or tylenol, put this on and relax. Your headache will melt away. At least mine do. (Or if you want to speed things along, take one of the migraine pills that have ibu, tylenol or aspirin WITH a bit of caffeine.) I think that JUST this around eye massager would work for someone really interested in not taking any pills; but I'm not a hero, haha. When I have a migraine I just want it gone.
Anyway, I hope this helps a fellow migraine sufferer somewhere. The other thing I do to get migraine relief is to actually use a back massager on my head... like a percussion massager. There is a technique to it... you have to ease into it or it IS jarring. The reason I do this is because for some crazy reason... the TOP of my head also holds a lot of tension (crazy, I know!). So if you get this around eye massager and you're still having trouble.. try to massage the rest of your head with your hands and see if the combination helps.
Bottom line: This is a GREAT TOOL for easing migraine or sinus headaches. Now that I have it, I would NOT want to be without it. It has a strong vibration that hits all the right spots for sinus issues.

The Germ Guardian Pluggable Air Purifier and Sanitizer certainly does its job well, but also noisily.
My bathroom is always damp and smells like mildew, no matter how often I clean it. I recently had to replace a bathmat due to mold growing on it, and a hat I hung in the bathtub to dry had to be thrown away for the same reason. Already having breathing issues, that was a big problem for me. The replacement bathmat I purchased also had an awful odor. But then I added this product to the mix, and there was an immediate improvement.
After the air purifier was plugged in for only a short amount of time, the mildew smell and the bathmat smell were both gone. I have kept it plugged in the majority of the time, except when I won't be home for an extended amount of time, and the mildew smell has not come back. Regular bathroom smells dissipate quickly as well, making the ceiling mounted bathroom fan and spray air fresheners obsolete.
As far as space saving, this air purifier takes up very little space, and sits securely in the top socket of the wall outlet, without tilting sideways or forwards. It does not block the lower socket, and I have had no problems so far with using both outlets at the same time.
I don't feel secure taking the risk of leaving it plugged in when I will be away from home for an extended period of time, but I haven't smelled any smoke, or noticed any risk of fire so far. I won't know how much energy it is consuming, until I get my next electric bill.
All in all, the Germ Guardian Pluggable Air Purifier and Sanitizer is a great product, that does it job very effectively, and solved the problems I purchased it for.
The only drawback so far is the noise level. The air purifier is in the bathroom, which shares a wall with my bedroom. It is not plugged in on that shared wall, but near the corner of the adjoining wall. I can hear the fan running rather loudly all the time, especially when I am attempting to sleep, even with both doors closed. I expected to hear the sound in the same room, but not in another room. This is the only reason I did not give the product a 5-star rating, and the only reason why I won't be purchasing more of them to place in other rooms. If it ran quieter, it would be the perfect air purification product. Nevertheless, I will continue to use the product, due to its incredible effectiveness.", "label": 0}

While I already have self made oil and lotion blends that I use for facial and body skin that I am very happy with, I am always open to learning new things and improving on what's there. So I was really curious and attracted to sea buckthorn due to its healing and rejuvenating effects on the skin and wanted to give it a try. I saw this product on Amazon and since US Organic Group wasn't a supplier that I was familiar with I had to research first before I was willing to purchase something that I was planning to use on my skin. I realize that reviews are not meant to be about manufacturer, but the manufacturer plays a key role for me in something like essential oils. One thing that swayed me in giving this manufacturer a try is not only because the product certified organic, but also that their products are 100% cruelty free. If you do a little further searching you will find that this company seems to have wellness in their DNA with affiliations to some other interesting organizations.
The oil itself has what I would call a deep amber or red orange color and viscous. It has a bit of a musky scent to it, although you can't really smell unless you hold it up directly to your nose. It can stain your skin, especially if you fail to dilute sufficiently. However, this is temporary and washes off easily.
It's a great exfoliator, skin cleanser and good for healing the skin. There have actually been studies done which show that daily use helps slow down the signs of aging by nourishing skin tissues. What's there not to love about that!
My facial skin is extremely sensitive and I have gotten to the point that I will know almost immediately if my skin likes what I am putting on it or not. I know some people may think that I am a little nuts, but it's true in my case. The reason I bring this up, is that when I used this product in my blend and apply it to my face, I can feel my skin reacting positively.
This is a very concentrated oil, and I recommend that you use sparingly. Also make sure that you dilute with a good carrier oil. There are a number of other essential oils that are good for your skin which you can add in your blend such as carrot seed, rose hip, lavender, frankincense, geranium and others. I can't tell you what blend works best in your particular case as everyone is unique. There are a lot of good articles that will help you get started.

You must remove (unscrew) the plastic sides from your Mackie mixer (pictured, disconnected and resting on top of rack ears) and then attach the ears in their place, using the threaded bolt holes left by the mixer plastic side guards. Perfect fit. No complaints. Ears attach within 1mm perfect spacing. Simple product, no moving or electronic parts to \"break.\" What you see is what you get. A good tip is to wire up your mixer (with a patch panel) so you arent pulling and inserting cables into the mixer all day every day. The connections stay with the mixer, and are plugged at the other end in the patchbay. The gear plugs in and out of the patchbay, no harm- no foul to the mixer.
Pictured is my mixer on top of a rolling rack that has an adjustable, angled top- another ergonomical advantage. While I am at it, this rack was bought here on Amazon as well and is solid as a rock. If you need to move around your rack once in a while, this is the way to do it- in lieu of pulling your hair out when you unplug every connection, move your rig and either can't reach or can't remember where to plug in the myriad of cables. With a dozen inputs, a dozen inserts, 48 front patch positions, as well as 48 rear patch positions, audio interfaces, secondary and third level mixers, amplifiers, distribution amplifiers, humbuckers, effect pedals, power conditioners, two dozen pieces of vintage gear without all the modern amenities, MIDI spaghetti, MIDI interfaces, USB & USB3 running in and out of gear and the PC, perhaps a secondary PC just to record? Maybe even a PC to just record dry multitrack! Powered monitors, passive monitors feeding off amplifiers, casual entertainment from secondary and third level laptops, single board computers, refurbished PCs with a SSD, a GPU and massive memory dumped in to make it nothing more than a fancy HD internet streaming device. Possibly able to record with some big drives and a stripped down OS.
The short story is (TOO LATE!) the rack ears not only save space, they open up either the top or the vertical side of the mixer in order to make it more available for multiple uses by keeping the clutter behind, to the side, and generally out of the way- while you, the engineer, are trying to figure out a solution, not trying to get tangled in a spaghetti of wires and cables.
Sure, color coded cables help. Those little numbered decals at either end of cables near the jack can help. Not without a key of some sort though. If you've got all the codes on a piece of paper, it's hard to make mistakes. It's even harder to try to hold on to a cheat sheet, while holding tools, cables, balancing on your back, with a flashlight in your mouth.

They hold the wound together well, stick pretty well (see below), and are easy to use. This size is SMALL, for small cuts. My recent application is a small cut 1/2\" long by 1/8\" or so deep (razors are very sharp when they are new... who knew?!?). But, the backing they are attached onto is cut so you have a small 1/16\" or 1/8\" bit that stays on so it doesn't stick to your fingers when applying it, and the rest of the backing comes off so you can put THAT bit onto the site. Then you pull the stuck side across the wound to pull the cut closed and then press down the other side to hold it closed. Then you simply pull off the remaining backing. It is like how band aides have the white plastic backing split in half, so you leave one side covered until you position the bandage, then peel the other side off as you pull it over the wound.
You should probably buy multiple sizes. I did. These will not work for large cuts as you will need wider and longer strips, so find and order sizes to cover a wide array of wound sizes. Always be prepared!
They are not very 'stretchy' either, but they should not be. They are meant to hold the wound closed so it can knit together, not stretch so it opens back up. Maybe they should ask us to rate 'flexibility' instead. They are VERY flexible, like thin cloth tape, but also seem porous to allow the wound to drain if needed. you do NOT need to put on 50 of these to completely cover the wound from one side to another... there are videos that show proper usage. These are applied with spacing like stitches.
I have mixed feelings about the 'adhesion' rating. Current bandages using adhesives have to find some balance between 'it sticks on and does it's job' and 'it doesn't tear the wound back open when you try to remove the bandage'. This bandage seems to strike a good balance. I don't have much luck with them on a cut at the base of my pinky finger UNLESS I wrap the site with \"Self Adherent Cohesive Wrap Bandages\". If I don't wrap the site, the bandages will rub off in 5 min to 4 hours, depending on what I'm doing. If I wrap the site, then they will stay put for 4 to 6 hours. This is a double edged sword, as the wrap increases moisture retention, which in turn makes them come lose faster.
I think they all simply need to switch to a two step process. Make bandages stick like they are welded on is step one. Step two is you apply a sterile 'remover' agent to loosen/dissolve the adhesive to remove the bandage. Maybe some already do this? If so, then I haven't seen them.", "label": 1}

This may be a tough rating (1-star), but I think that the quality of this product can be found in the dollar store. If it were $5 or under, I'd improve it's rating. (And if it were $1, I'd give it 5-stars.) As others have said, the threading is not high quality and the plastic is thin. It's definitely not worth $10. I was sent the all-clear variety instead of the colors, which I would have preferred. It would have been nice to be able to specify your preference!
There are pros to this product, though, and I'm not going to return it. It is definitely useful and convenient. It fits 8 vitamins (including big ones like my fish oil and calcium), and has room for more! You can probably fit two of those soft chewables in addition to fish oil, calcium, multi, and others. I probably could have gone a size smaller, but this will be great when I'm traveling and can double up on my days.
**UPDATE 10/2012**
I just improved my rating a little to 2-stars (If I could do 2.5, I would). I still don't think this product is worth more than $5.
However, I've been using it for a couple years now, and it has held up. I've dropped it on a ceramic tile floor, and while the container popped open and all of my vitamins spilled over the floor and under the fridge (ugh!), there were only cracks on the containers and chips off of the screw-top threading. The container now looks like it has a stained glass look since there are cracks ALL over it. So why would I improve the rating after this? Well, the containers still screw together and they didn't actually shatter. I suspect they will break, though, after another tumble or two, but I was pleasantly surprised! I should also add that the containers have become disconnected on other occasions... in my suitcase. Luckily at those times, they were contained. But it's still a less than ideal happening. The threads aren't high quality. You need to be extra careful that you have all of the threads alined and twist the container tightly -- but not too tightly (or it will crack). I think it might be an art.
One additional piece of advice... the containers are NOT WATERPROOF. I took it camping and threw it in the cooler on the drive up (thinking back, I don't know why did that!) and let's just say that it was rather disgusting cleaning out the vitamins. I will never do that again.
All of this said, I'm looking for another manufacturer of the stackable containers. I really like the convenience they offer. I can fill up the entire container for a week, but only take one with me daily instead of the entire stack. That, to me, is awesome. If I don't find a higher quality option or if the container breaks before I can find an alternative, I *might* buy another one. But I'm a little stubborn and will only do that if I absolutely have to! (And that is purely for the convenience [and size] it provides.)", "label": 0}

Whether it's knots between my shoulder blades from an injury-related scoliosis, or spasms in my lumbar vertebrae, I can count on having to deal with some kind of musculoskeletal back problem throughout the year.
I have resorted to all kinds of DIY self-torture to release knots. I've chewed ibuprofen like candy. I've rutted up against a door frame like a brown bear in the forest. I've even used a hammer to try and blindly pound knots into submission. Nothing really hit the spot in that \"ahhhhh\" way.
About a year ago a colleague mentioned muscle trigger points and how these goofy looking plastic hooks are great for releasing muscle tension. I did not believe it for a second, but she had a side business as a therapist and literally pulled one of these out of her trunk to show me. She showed me how to torque the hook over my shoulder and not to massage, but to press the knob on the tenderest, angriest spot of my muscle spasm (which it reached comfortably), and PULL. HARD. I saw stars. I saw liquid time flowing before my unshielded eyes. My brain slipped into a cool ether as phosphorescent nerves fired in beautiful agony, radiating the music of neurons from the hot core of taught muscle fibers beneath my shoulder blade. I knew no language. My reptile brain basked in the sun of suns. And at last, after eons of sorrow and wailing saints had slithered through the coils of my subconscious (which I guess took like 60 seconds), I eased up on the hook. I remembered my life. But the nagging ache was fading,ebbing like the rusty smear of a setting sun. Relief was a warm, drunken syrup drizzling down my spine. I felt a lightness, and a real release that no craftsman hammer ever provided. And it stayed.
I keep a MuscleHook behind the couch and use it whenever my back is even a little cranky. Nothing has ever hit the sweet spot like this tool. My lovely wife cannot, despite her best efforts, muster the raw brute force needed to beat my muscle knots in to submission, and now she is saved from the frustration of having to root out these issues with the muffled directions of her floor-prone husband: \"higher...to the left...no, back...nnng...down...harder please....no- back the other way....left....\", etc. are things of the past.
I'm not claiming this is a cure-all and I'm not giving medical advice here, but I am saying that this tool has so far been better for mitigating my back muscle issues than anything else I've tried at home, including:
- Hammers
- Door Frames
- Electric massage wands
- Foam rollers
- Stretching
- Contorted twisting and grunting
- Ibuprofen
- Ibubrofen with muscle relaxant
- Laying on tennis balls
This is a sturdily designed tool. It holds its shape and is tough enough to absorb the force of being wrenched, pulled, pressed, and twisted without giving. Worth every penny.", "label": 1}

We have run the Cornish Cross as well as the Rangers and the KEY - to this or ANY plucker working effectively, IS the SCALD. ( more on that in a moment )
The company provides information on the product and you can look up the videos they have on unpacking, and setting up. You can choose to remove the protective plastic, or leave it on. I am fine with this level of instruction - as I have used the web to find most of our information on the various aspects of raising, cleaning and why we should be eating our own birds. =)
The Good -
Shipped and arrived faster than expected, and without damage.
Heavy duty construction seems durable, and after 1yr+ is still running like new
Worked as advertised
The Not So Good -
Switch is "encased" to be water proof, and the combined effect of a HEAVY DUTY switch and the water tight enclosure make it difficult to get it switched on and stay on. Requires a little practice, and wearing gloves for scalding make this more difficult. Good news is - that it is heavy duty and waterproof...
You need to be "Quick" on the water sprayer when you turn it on. So ONE person doing the scalding and operating of this machine is coordinating the chicken, off/on switch, and the hose. You can PURCHASE upgraded models that have sprayers built in, and for the money, to some it might be worth it.
I am giving this 5 stars because the value of what we paid, and the claims of what it can do are met or exceeded in all cases. The negatives I mention are necessary in my opinion to be offered at this price point and meet safety and reliability.
*SCALD*
In all cases I can trace back to "SCALDING" as being responsible for damage to our chickens when plucking. When we started using this, we used a flame and a thermometer, and had issues. The WIDE variance in temperature made it clear to me that SCALDING was responsible for the results through the plucker and not the plucker itself. When temps were right, for the entire scald - the pluck was perfect.
As we progressed through the year and into this year - we improved our scalding until we now have a 2 degree variance and run Reds slightly warmer than Crosses. Knowing that In Either case, use lots of flushing water during the pluck to wash away feathers and cool the bird. If the scald was correct, the feathers were released and the machine does the job of removing them and expelling them efficiently.
LAST IMPORTANT NOTE - Rinse and Clean this machine well after use. Feathers biodegrade, but not without their own stench. There are fingers pointed DOWN to expel feathers and stuff, but it will not get EVERYTHING. As with all your stuff, take care of it, and I would expect this to take care of you for as many years as you need!", "label": 1}

I was torn between the Vibes and the DownBeats. (Vibes being an Amazon Choice and appearing to be more of a name brand, Downbeats having a 1/2 star better rating and a better price) I ended up ordering 3 sets of each for our family of 4 so we had 2 extra pairs to swap if needed.
At the house, a day before the concert, I gave my wife and I the Vibes (rated at less of a DB drop) and the kids the Downbeats (higher DB drop) Everyone liked what I got them except for me, Apparently I have small ear canals. (Im 6'4\", this is the 1st time I have every had to go with the small in my life) Even with the smallest cushions they uncomfortable. I could just still feel the rigid plastic inside. . I tried keeping them in for about 10 minutes thinking I would get use to them but I couldn't take it. I then put in the Downbeats and loved them, they felt so much better.
So now that I had tainted both pairs with my earwax I figured id give both a try with my headphones hooked up to my computer. I could tell no difference at all in sound quality. The DownBeats did obviously block just a little more sound, like they were rated to do, but I was happy.
Fast forward to the concert and I put in my DownBeats and was really disappointed. This is not how a concert was supposed to sound! I know they say high fidelity but everything was just muddled. Frustrated I took them out, but wanting to be a good role model for my kids I thought I would try the Vibes to see if they were any better and they were! I kept them in for probably half of the concert. (Apparently concentrating on a concert made me forget they were uncomfortable vs just sitting at my computer) I will say the Vibes still made the concert less enjoyable, which is why I took them out depending on the song. But they were tolerable. I just didn't like the sound of the concert with the DownBeats at all. With the Vibes the concert sounded right, but you still didnt get that concert experience but they werent that bad. Im guessing my opiton would be the same for even higher priced earplugs as the Vibes. Quiet music at a concert just isnt the same.
Final Verdict Vibes = 4 Star and my loud Concert. They had great sound quality but their rigid nature made them uncomfortable. While I was able to completely ignore the comfort while concentrating on the rock concert in front of me they are also sold for Fitness classes, Riding a motor cycle and there is no way I could wear them long term for other purposes.
DownBeats = 4Star and my recommendation for anything but a rock concert. They sounded good in my headphones at my computer. They were super comfortable. Id have no problem wearing them all day for the other things they have listed like \"Airshows and motorcycles\"", "label": 1}

MY BACKSTORY:
I carry a water bottle everywhere and would sit with one on my desk at work daily, but I rarely would drink out of it. I simply carried it because I would suddenly feel thirsty if I didn't have it. I get a headache around 2-3pm daily like clockwork. I suspected it was dehydration since the rare occasion that I did manage to drink enough, I didn't get a headache, but I couldn't keep up with it. I tried various tracking systems, including the ones with the time printed on it to pace myself. None of it worked because I physically needed a reminder. I thought about setting a timer, but that would be cumbersome, disruptive, and not dynamic enough to shift with daily life. I found this reminder and was hesitant to pay $25. But, it was a lot cheaper than \"smart\" water bottles and I knew taking Motrin and/or Tylenol daily was not healthy. The cost was worth it after feeling this headache-free relief!!
SIZE:
It has a silicone band that fits well on my water bottle, which is about 3 inches in diameter. It definitely has enough stretch to fit on a 1L Nalgene, for example. The device itself is about 1.5\" tall, 1\" wide, and 3/8\" thick.
HOW IT WORKS:
I timed it when I first got it to see how the cycling works. Every ~35 minutes it strobes for ~5 seconds, then is off for ~5 seconds, alternating that cycle for about a minute before it resets the 35 second clock. I usually grab it within those first 5 seconds, but if you're not around and it does 2 full cycles of 35 min/1 min flashing, it turns off until you drink again. It also resets the clock every time you drink and has a light that blinks whenever it registers you taking a drink. It's gotten to the point that my body has internalized the clock a bit; on many occasions it started strobing as I was reaching for a drink on my own!
MY CONCERNS DIDN'T END UP BEING ISSUES:
- I thought the \"just drank\" light would get set off a lot carrying my water bottle around, but that hasn't been an issue.
- It also has a light sensor, because it doesn't go off in the dark. I can keep it on my nightstand with no issues
- My water bottle has a straw, so every once in a while my sip is a little too still for it to register, but that's been only maybe 5 times in the last month.
- It's also perfect everyday use outside of the office - I don't have to deal with alarms and it dynamically updates as I drink.
- I keep it on all the time, and haven't worried about it falling off. I did take it off twice when I want on a day-long outing where I knew I'm going to be drinking a lot on my own and didn't want it to interfere with the frequent in and out of my backpack.", "label": 1}

Its such an embarrassing problem, and I am a stickler for anti-bacterial, anti-germs, and cleanliness in general. Every time I bough a cute new pair of ballet flats, they'd inevitably end up in the trash a couple weeks later because the stink would start to get out of control. No amount of daily foot scrubbing with anti-bac soap, powders, etc would keep it at bay, and my feet would slide around from moisture in my shoes after several hours in them. You see, I live in a city where a LOT of walking and being on my feet is done. And ballet flats or sneakers are pretty much my only option - I can't wear open heels for 10 hours a day. This problem really got me down and made me feel icky. I never understood it when I'd see girls sockless in super expensive flats.
I was skeptical when I first tried Silver Linings as I just didn't get how they could ever work. But they do! Like magic! Not only are my feet daisy fresh all day, but they're completely dry too. I finally have the confidence to take my shoes off around others. I think this product is truly a miracle, and has really solved a nuisance problem for me. I've been using these for years now and I'll continue to buy them as long as they're offered and I'm at the point where I don't use anything else.
A few things to be aware of --
- they don't adhere the greatest to shoes that are fabric on the inside. I have to stop and adjust them because they sometimes shift around in my shoes. Though I love that they don't have an adhesive and won't ruin my shoes, I sometimes wish they did just do they'd stay put. This is mentioned in a LOT of other reviews and it's true - with certain types of fabric insoles they will slide around. This is easily remedied with a touch of superglue. Vinyl, Plastic, or Foam insoles? They stick and stay put just fine.
- Also, for those particularly tight and un-breathable shoes, I wish they'd come out with a full foot version. The half is sufficient (at least for me) in most shoes, but I do have a couple that I have to be careful with because the heel isn't protected.
- They're a bit expensive, and you have to replace them every couple weeks. (Or sooner, depending on how frequently you wear the shoes). I think ChuShu may be alienating certain consumers by not offering a product that lasts longer and has a bit of a high price tag. I was so thankful for the 5-pair value pack they were offering.
Reminder that you CANT just stick these into already stinky shoes and hope they eliminate the odor. They work best on clean shoes as a preventative. I've ordered 2 pairs of my favorite ballet flats and the second pair have wayyyy outlasted the first pair with the use of Silver Linings.
Overall, I LOVE this product and know a ton more women would too if they knew about them and had easy accessibility to them. I really think they should be in every walgreens, walmart, and CVS around the block, much more than that Dr. Sholls garbage.", "label": 1}

(Note: after doing my research, the one being sold on FB is an expensive piece of crap. Never buy anything without reviews!)
With all that being said, I'm not a reviewer but if I were I would totally give the Apalus Straightener Brush a thumbs up and a 4-4.5 star rating. It does exactly what it says it will do.
\u2022It straightens your hair.
\u2022It has a power button and two temperature control button settings that go up and down in temperature.
\u2022It can go as high as 450 degrees.
Being my hair is so damaged from this last go around trying to get my hair lightened to go grey. I started at 390 and quickly set it down on 360. I still think this is too high. I have seen the review videos on YouTube and did my research before I purchased this. The ratings on Amazon where phenomenal. I don't purchase anything without a 4 star or above rating usually.
\u2022out of 1835 reviews, it rated 3.7 out of 4 stars. That was good enough for me out of that many reviews.
\u2022It comes in two colors pink/ black and black/ teal (picture below).
\u2022it has a swivel cord so no tangled cords and the cord is long.
\u2022it is definitely made for all types of hair. I watch several videos on all sorts of hair textures and ethnicities and actually thought "this might be too hot for my hair" because I'm Caucasian and have fine, damaged hair. But with the temperature control it works just fine.
Cons or possible cons:
\u2022it doesn't straighten your hair like a flat iron because it doesn't flatten the hair. It still gives you body and makes your hair feel full not flat but It gives you that straight look that you are looking. If you are wanting the flat iron straight look this isn't for you. But for the price of 29.99 it was totally worth adding to my collection for those days I don't want to curl my hair or straighten it.
\u2022in order to get the results that you want you will have to section off the hair. When you do this, it gets pretty darn close to the skin/ root without burning your skin because the rubber nobs don't get hot.
\u2022straighten the hair first from underneath the strand for a fuller look and for the brush to come in contact with all strands of hair. It won't come in contact with all of the hair if you use it like a regular brush.
\u2022it's kind of heavy, but my arm didn't get tired of using it. Although, it's easy to clonk yourself upside the head with so be careful.
\u2022 my biggest con with this is that the back of the brush gets extremely hot. I usually put my pointer finger on the back of my brush or curling iron to guide it but quickly learned to grab somewhere else. \ud83d\ude09
\u2022 the little rubber nobs on the ends of the "bristles" of the brush does pull a little but not to the point where it kept me from using it. (We will see how this works out).", "label": 1}

Monavie is a typical MLM product...they took a good product that few people really understand or will understand(in this case a rich antioxident berry) overpriced it, and put the Jim Jones pyramid cult glasses on all their distributors/suckers.
The price of 100% Acai berry juice at Wholefoods is just shy of what you pay for the same quantity of Mona Vie. The problem is that the amount of the very expensive Acai juice in Mona Vie remains a secret and is probably not much. Acai in Mona Vie is mixed with cheap juices like grape and others. You'd probably do better regarding antioxidants to simply mix half Acai and half (purple)grape juice, and take a good multivitamin. If sugar is a problem, then just dilute the Acai and drink that. You'd definitely save much money if you did this. Top commonly attainable antioxidant rich foods per weight in order 1-10, blackberries, walnuts, strawberries, artichokes(cooked), cranberries, rasberries, blueberries, ground cloves, grape juice, cranberry juice. Acai is the best so far for ORAC value(the potency grading system for antioxidants) per weight, but is not considered a common food so it isn't on the list. A great way to get Acai is freeze dried powder, which you can order online at Amazon or get through a few major retailers(maybe Costco).
I give it two stars because you should be taking antioxidents, and the Acai berry is excellent for that, but I've looked and have yet to find any legitimate science identifying any benefit to the \"patented freeze dried\" Monavie process over the freeze dried Acai packets at groceries like Whole Foods. I asked my brother(a biochem Phd) about Monavie, and he generally said he couldn't imagine that Monivie's process has any benefit. Also, fruits/veges aren't the only source for antioxidents, so for the Monavites to espouse that \"Monavie juice has everything\" is wrong and neglects noting the key anticancer benefit of the antioxidant Selenium(found in meat, garlic, and seafood). In fact, just recently, the Mayo clinic identified that beta carotine(antioxidant) can cause cancer in smokers!...
(Jan 08), Selenium has been identified by the Mayo Clinic to reduce cancer rates by 23% in men, with no effect on women. Some sources of Selenium: fish & shellfish, red meat, grains, eggs, chicken and garlic.
'While antioxidants have been touted for cancer prevention, different antioxidants have different effects, and their effects may also vary depending on the part of the body involved, Dr. Aditya Bardia of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota and colleagues note in their report.'
'In fact, the researchers found, smokers who take beta carotene supplements could be increasing their risk of smoking-related cancer and death. While vitamin E had no anti-cancer effect overall, Bardia and colleagues did find that supplementation with the nutrient was tied to a 13 percent lower prostate cancer risk.'[reported by reuters health]", "label": 0}

The Nerds!) on Shark Tank, I knew I had to purchase it for my constantly-slipping eyeglasses, which had already been adjusted several times, to no avail. The problem is that my nose hasn't much of a bridge for the glasses to rest on, nose pads or not!
Nerdwax works super well for me with considerable adhesion -- very tacky, as desired! No more *incessant* need to shove my glasses up my face anymore, which is especially annoying while trying to focus on my computer work (I've a computer job). However, an occasional push-up is still needed. Though it must transfer to the skin over time, I don't feel gunky residue on my nose ... it dissipates quite nicely!
As you'd find on nerdwax.com (FAQ section), the product naturally wears off by the oils produced by your skin, including sweat, so if these conditions are present (e.g., during intense exercise), you should expect to apply it more frequently. The product is designed to be reapplied every hour or two, or once a day, depending on your activity, skin conditions, and even environmental climate (I live in the arid desert!). Also, the shelf life of the product is about two years, after which it "loses its mojo".
But a TOUR DE FORCE of this company is their EXEMPLARY customer service. After receiving the product, I wrote to the owner, Don, that I just received the 3-pack of nerdwax tubes purchased on their website, had been happily using it, and planned to give a couple to family members with similar slippage issues...
Then for giggles, I told what I deemed an amusing story of how one tube got into the jaws of one of my pups, while my husband and I were out one night. (Must have rolled off my desk onto the dog bed.) She had the cap in her mouth when we got home, and so I searched the house for the rest of it, which was in our spare bedroom. I told Don that I managed to salvage the product by extracting it from the mangled tube -- and that it was in a plastic container so I could apply the product by finger... it's a great product, so how could I let it be wasted??
Don wrote back, like within the hour, assuring there is nothing in the product that would hurt my little pup, and then offered -- without my asking -- to send a replacement tube in the mail, as he couldn't let me get it all over my fingers during each application. (As I said, the product is very tacky!) He has the friendliest personality, is wonderful to communicate with, and cares passionately about ensuring customer satisfaction.
A couple of days later, I received an entire 3-pack in the mail... this was a pleasant surprise, as only one tube of the three I purchased was damaged. So I vowed to Don to give the extra two replacements to co-workers/friends/family who want to try the product. So happy with their customer service (and extra tubes), I want to pay it back somehow.

But there you'd be able to reach with a standard razor anyway.
It's large, but not quite as huge as that last picture shows. I think they had a midget pose for the photo! It's a good thing it's not as huge as the picture because that would be unwieldy.
Before mine arrived (I hadn't read the description well enough) I was thinking how in the world am I gonna find blades that long? The trick is they use 3 standard blades aligned side-by-side in the shaving head. These are just the standard paper-thin blades that you can buy anywhere for cheap. And no, there's no \"seam\" between the blades because you overlap them when you install them. It's kinda clever, and works fine since the blades are so thin.
There are plastic protective teeth on the head around the blade so you don't cut yourself. This makes it very safe, but it does mean that you have to hold the razor at a certain angle to your skin or it won't shave properly.
Changing the blades _would_ be very quick and easy, except for the fact that you have to undo 4 rather small screws first. Yeah, it comes with a little screwdriver, but it's really tedious undoing those screws. Maybe they could improve with a tool-less design. I don't think this would be suitable for an elderly individual or anyone else who lacks fine motor skills due to a medical condition. They do give you 2 extra screws because they figure you're gonna lose some. Nice of them, but I'd rather not have to screw with screws anyway.
When it comes time to change the blades, turn them around and use the _other_ side of the blade. So you can use each set of blades twice. It comes with 10 extra blades (in addition to the 3 pre-installed blades). Basically 4 sets of blades which can be flipped around once each.
When I went to change the blades on mine the first time, hidden inside the head and molded into the plastic was a message: \"BE CAREFUL CUTTING HAND\". Haha that made my day! Apparently there's a Chinese product design guy with a sense of humor who likes to play jokes. I just hope he stays away from my Coca Cola.
The handle can be disassembled so that it fits in the small travel bag they give you. But in order to do that you have to... you guessed it, undo more screws. Fortunately these screws are much larger than the other ones though.

Here's why..
The true source of the ingredients is unknown. The label says Fruit and Vegetable Powder, and Plant Derived Mineral powder. What fruits, vegetables, and plants does it come from? I was reading somewhere on one of the websites that the mineral powder comes from a mine in Utah and that is why there are all of these heavy metals in it. The effect that 'organic heavy metals' (as Youngevity says) has on the human body is unknown. I spend a lot of time researching what we should and shouldn't be doing to ourselves whether it is eating habits, excersice etc. And I have not found any supporting evidence that there are no negative side effects of 'organic heavy metals'. I have 6 mercury fillings and I feel the toxicity of it (physical and mental) so heavy metals are really a concern for me. I also had a two year old daughter who tried this and guzzled a full glass so I am a little uspet about that. Anyways, back to what's in it..
This is the list of the other ingredients: Maltodextrin, citric acid, natural flavor and color, xanthan gum, CitriSweet (inulin, fructose, citrus peel extract), stevia.
Maltodextrin is known to contain MSG. It has been known to cause so many health problems. citric acid's source is unknown, so is natural flavor and color. xanthan gum is a filler in the product and the inulin in the CitriSweet has been known to cause digestive problems. Stevia is so-so, I haven't done much research into it to tell you what the deal is.
I can say off-hand that a lot of the vitamins are synthetic, which means that the body will use very little, if any of each synthetic vitamin.
Some of the amino acids are also from questionable sources. Lysine has been known to be genetically modified and I don't see GMO Free or Non-GMO anywhere on the label.
I would contact the company to express my concerns if I had the time to do it, but my two year old is already eating dinner by herself as I write this in hopes that it can help someone. If anyone needs more information about anything, comment and I will help you as best as possible.
I gave two stars instead of one because you are getting something out of it instead of nothing.
I hope this helps!!

But, every time I went to the doctor's office, and weighing in seems to be an obsession for the doctor's nurses, I'd wear the thinnest and lightest clothes I own and still come up over 6 pounds heavier than I weighed at home. The difference in weight was fluffed off as different scales come up with different readings. One doctor has the old weight balance type scale and I could easily see the weight was balanced at "0" pounds. Another has a fancier standing electronic scale.
As the difference between scales increased, I began to suspect that maybe my Sharper Image scale wasn't accurate. That led to my looking at a number of different scales on Amazon.com and thinking maybe the sensors in my scale or whatever mechanism in that scale that measures weight were failing. The last doctor visit I had I ended up weighing over 4 pounds more than I weighed at home and I knew my clothing didn't weigh 4 pounds. It was much less. So, I researched the scales from Amazon and thought Mosiso would be more accurate than the others. What I found out in using it is the doctor's scale was close to correct. There was nearly 4 pound difference in weight between the Sharper Image scale and the Mosiso scale.
I am also finding there may be some variability in weight based on floor surfaces. Each floor is level, but on a composite floor that looks like ceramic tile and one that is hard, flat ceramic tile, my weight can vary up to 2 pounds on the Mosiso. I'm also finding that the initial 4 pound differential between the Sharper Image scale and Mosiso has become anywhere between 1.4 and 2.8 pounds and can't account for the difference. At my heaviest, I was 330 pounds and carried it well. Losing weight over the past 10 years and keeping it off, I am somewhere between 262 and 266 pounds.
I do like the Mosiso scale's looks and like the final weight flashing on the scale. I usually weigh myself 3 times and by just tapping the back edge of the scale, it resets to "00" pounds. I then consider my weight to be whatever 2 of the 3 readings match. I guess the only way to get the most accurate weight on myself is to own a scale exactly like those in doctor's offices. However, I do get closer to an accurate measure on the Mosiso scale and the price certainly can't be beat. I'm hoping that as the scale gets more accustomed to being used, perhaps the readings will become more consistent or accurate.", "label": 1}

I was diagnosed with De Quervain's syndrome in my right wrist (inside of wrist) last January, I have horrible inflammation/tenderness on the thumb side of the wrist and burning pain at the base of my right thumb when I extend the fingers. My doctor said to get a cortisone shot but I refuse to do that, I have been trying to find other things to get rid of it. For about the last 2 months the pain has also been in the right hand about a 1/2 inch to the right of the thumb and stays in about a 1/2 inch area, it is the most painful when I wake up and is the level of crying pain. Someone told me last March that it is thumb tendonitis and might be from mineral deficiency and suggested that I take high dose magnesium and Vitamin D3. I worked up to 1,200 mg. a day taking magnesium malate and was taking about 10,000 IU Vitamin D3. One day I took 3,000 mg. magnesium but did not get relief. I got tested for magnesium and Vitamin D deficiency and my levels are low and I stopped taking the Vitamin D as my calcium levels are really high. The D level was coming up but when I stopped taking it, it dropped. I have taken a lot of things to get improvement but nothing has helped: B6 P-5-P, methyl B12, ice, heat, infrared light therapy, self-massage, acupuncture, castor oil packs, olive oil packs, bromelain, high dose serrapeptase, homeopathic remedies/creams, colostrum, chondroitin sulfate/glucosamine, msm, copper bracelets, borax, baking soda, tart cherry juice concentrate, alfalfa, essential oils. I got an xray done but my doctor says it is normal.

I suspect that I have Leaky Gut, I am severely gluten intolerant, a mild intolerance to casein and sensitive to the nightshade vegetables. I am also hypothyroid. I have been gluten free a lot of times but more recently about 6 weeks, no dairy, cutting out rice and trying to eat healthy. I've done the Whole30 diet, the last time was in February but it didn't help the tendonitis. I don't know why the magnesium isn't helping or anything else that I have taken.

I was put on Adderall which was wonderful. However I felt it made me angrier and was absolutely horrible to come off of when I stopped taking it. I also found out that it could over work your heart and cause other problems. So far to me this feels very similar to Adderall but my emotions are more in check. I have been incredibly productive while I have been taking this pill. I have a lot more energy, and it is focused energy. I dont feel like my heart is racing to fast at all. By the way there is no caffeine in this but it is an herbal stimulant. As far as it helping with mood swings and hormones I have been on it for about a week and yesterday was a very bad PMS day for me. Maybe I need to be on it longer I am not sure. So this is what I am worried about. I feel this stuff is way more awesome then coffee. My concern is that my body will get used to it and it may no longer be as effective. I also worry that I may suffer from extreme exhaustion if I stop taking it like I did with Adderall. Only time will tell and I will try to update my review. It does make me feel better to know that holy basil has been used in India for thousands of years in Ayurveda medicine. I have been taking one pill at breakfast and one at lunch or around 3:00 p.m. This is not something you want to take at night. It is harder to go to sleep if taken to close to bed time, and I ended up dreaming all night long, so it was not a restful sleep at all. I have not had any weight loss or apatite suppression, but I have been a lot more active. My weight has not changed while on this pill at all. I feel like a happier, more productive, and a more focused person while on this pill. I would highly recommend this herbal supplement and brand. I have been very happy with my purchase.
The following link was very helpful to me in researching the benefits of this supplement: [...] There is a list of 44 benefits this supplement has.
WebMD also warns that holy basil should not be taken with medicines that thin the blood. Also this supplement should be stopped 2 weeks before any surgery since it can slow blood clotting. Pentobarbital interacts with Holy Basil and may cause drowsiness.
As with anything you decide to take I highly recommend you research it first to make sure that it is right for you. For me I plan to continue taking this daily. I will be buying another bottle after I am done with the one I am using.

With DAOsin I can usually eat them with little problem. I'm histadelic and thus have a low tolerance for known high-histamine foods (avocado, lemon, tomato, eggplant, banana, vinegar, red wine, cheese, sardines, etc.), especially during allergy season (when my histamine levels can already be sky-high). Previously, even with anti-histamines and methionine, I had to limit my diet very carefully to minimize burning eyes, a stinging tongue, sinus headaches, itchy skin, sneezing fits, nausea, and insomnia. However, I've learned that DAO (diamine oxydase) doesn't just block histamine receptors in the body like antihistamines or break it down after it's already gotten into your bloodstream like methionine; DAO actually helps digest and break down excess histamine in your GI tract BEFORE it can be absorbed and released into the blood stream and cause unpleasant reactions.
DAOsin even works fairly well for me if I forget and take it AFTER eating. Using it along with methionine (an essential amino acid) and an OTC antihistamine, I can actually sleep soundly and allergy-free when the pollen counts are high. I would have given DAOsin five stars, but it is expensive and has lots of excipients (extra inactive ingredients). It makes allergy-free meals pretty costly, and I'm a little concerned about all the added chemicals that I can't even pronounce - the company says these extra ingredients are in very small quantities and serve as binders and slow the release of the DAO so that it reaches your small intestine. I have not found any other high-potency DAO products that don't have a similar number of extra ingredients.
The deciding factor for me was that it is clearly stated on the label that DAOsin is "Made in Austria", whereas other potent DAO products often don't state their actual origin - "manufactured by", (worse) "manufactured for", and (the worst) "distributed by" do NOT indicate WHERE the product was actually MADE. For example, a nutrient corporate office in North America may own a factory in Asia, where their products are made by cheap labor without any assurance of quality control, but they can still label the product "Manufactered by" this American company. The question remains: "Manufactured by you WHERE?" That can be guaranteed only with "MADE IN..."
Histame, another DAO product, lists very few excipients on its label, but it also contains MUCH less DAO than DAOsin, forcing me to take three to four times as many of Histame's larger capsules (why are they so big then?) to get the same results as one or two very small DAOsin capsules. In the long run, this makes Histame just as expensive or more than DAOsin. I haven't done the calculations yet, but a bottle of 30 Histames runs out a lot faster on me than a bottle of 30 DAOsin capsules.
I hope this helps! And no, I don't work for or know anyone at Swanson in the US or the DAOsin company in Austria.", "label": 1}

Excited to try this, but now need to google how to use these different bottles.
Update April 7, 2017 - Changed rating from 3 stars to 4 because LOVE THIS but no instructions. I found a good step by step at prettyfulz.blogspot.com and just assumed each treatment correlated to the bottles in ABC order. I did my own lashes but would not recommend it unless you are great with detail and can "poke around" your own eyeballs.
My guess is this is these items were bought in bulk and resold as this kit. I got mine in the mail on the 5th although it wasn't expected until the 15th, so, yay for free shipping. I found a good tutorial online (step by step with pics, not video) and did my own lashes the same day I received the kit, after my son went to bed. I used the largest rod of the 3 sizes because I read somewhere that the small rod size made the lashes too kinked.
The rod is very sticky. I found it somewhat difficult to apply in that it would stay stuck to my finger when trying to place on my eyelid. Threw away the first rod of my attempt as it stuck too far away from my lid line, stuck to my finger and pulled off my lid (ouch!) and after repeating this torture, I felt I had removed the best stickiness in my novice process. So, with as little contact as possible by holding the tiniest bit of one end with the tweezers and other with my finger/thumb, I bent the rod with snake-like movements to make to more flexible and to better lie across my eyelid. I still had to reposition it a few times and un-stick my lid from it, but I got it where I wanted.
My steps are pictured, but I only included some from my process because I didn't want to bore my friends with tons of eyeball pictures. I began with one eye and when I got to the waiting 10-15 minutes for the perm treatment, I prepared the second rod, applied it to my lid, and put on that eye's perm treatment. I still had to wait several minutes with both eyes pretty much "glued open" but it wasn't difficult for me. Of my circle of friends, I honestly cannot imagine any of them doing this to herself, maybe one of them. If I could get someone to apply the rods for me, I'm certain I could relax my eyes to a closed position. But I don't trust any of them with this delicate process! LOL
So far, I love love love the results! The "day after" look is more "fluffed" and excitingly beautiful than the "same night" look. I'll update my review to say how long the perm lasts. There's plenty of product to repeat the process many times.", "label": 1}

The product packaging arrived with no dents or damage. I was surprised that the packaging did not include any seal to show it had not been opened or used previously. The carton holding the unit slides right out of either end of the outer box sleeve. It included the unit and a simple instruction booklet. It's more like a quick start guide, which is nice because no one likes paging through a detailed booklet and searching for your appropriate language. No CD, no inserts, no ads, no user manual tome. Awesome. A note about the directions: they read a little funny because obviously English is not their first language. They are Swedish...I did my research. :)
I plugged it and hit the power button...where is the digital display screen?? It took me a few seconds but it illuminates on the backside through the handle. I easily switched to Fahrenheit by pressing the "+" and "-" at the same time. While it warmed up, I took the before photo (my hair was wavy, warped, frizzy and had an impression from a headband I wore all day). The straightener was ready to go by time I finished that.
So, I'm a "lazy" hair styler. I do not like taking a lot of time to straighten or curl my hair. In addition, I have limited dexterity with my right hand. So the easier, the better. I have a habit of buying these styling tools, hoping that I would get the quick and easy results they promise, such as the InStyler Original Rotating Hot Iron and the Conair Infiniti Pro Curl Secret Curling Iron (both great, too). But when I started seeing these brush straighteners, I thought, "I could do that!" So, I literally started to just brush my hair with it, not even holding it taut like they say in the directions. If this works even in my lazy way, then we have a winner. Sure enough, 10 minutes later, my hair was straight and tamed. Normally, if I want to straighten my hair after the air dry wave and headband, I'd have to wet it, use the hair dryer and my Instyler to get it to look like it does with this one tool. It felt like a rubbery brush going through, which felt good on the scalp and was warm (not hot) to the touch on the surface. I was able to brush through my hair without any burns, even when I hit my ears and neck. I'd say it's more of a 2 in 1 styler...how can they say it's a detangler when they say to have your hair "neatly brushed before using the straightener"?
I'm really happy with this product and it will become part of my daily routine. It gives me the results I expect for my fine, but thick, hair. Bonus: the long cord comes with a velcro wrap for easy storage. I received this product at a discount for my honest and unbiased review.

My vision is still ok, I can usually read a decently sized watch without my reading glasses. My biggest problem is trying to read the date. Always a fan of digital watches, but not a fan of huge watches, I tended to use watches like the Timex or Casio digitals with stainless steel bands. After exhaustive searches I had to resign myself to the fact that I couldn't use a digital anymore. I did find one digital with a standard size face but large numbers, but the backlight was dismal. That was a surprise since they made others with standard size numbers with super bright backlights. Anyway, I switched to a white faced analog with big numbers, and that was okay, but impossible to read the date. Then I found this watch. Fantastic! The face is about 1-1/4" (case size is 1-1/2"), what I would call standard size. It is about twice as thick as a standard analog watch, but that hasn't given me any problems. I replaced the leather band with my favorite stainless without issues. There is no backlight, but I can easily read the time in just about any light level except black, I can even read it in the movie theater. One push of the button and it speaks the time clearly, loudly enough for me to hear if there isn't a lot of background noise, but not so loud as to disturb others around me. Push the button twice and it speaks the date. Brilliant! No more digging for my glasses so I can read the date off my cell phone. The battery should last me for awhile, since I don't use the speech every day. The automatic time setting wasn't necessary for me, but was a nice feature and will certainly help someone who can't set the watch themselves. There are instructions about leaving the watch on your windowsill, on a certain side of the house, in a certain position, etc. for best reception for the automatic setting feature. I did an experiment. The first night I did nothing, and slept with the watch on my wrist as I am accustomed to (it arrived at my house with the correct time). It didn't update. The next night I set it in the window sill, and it did update. Since then I have slept with it on my wrist every night, and it still updates 90% of the time. I live on the east coast of South Florida, and have a stainless steel band on the watch. I'd call that excellent reception.
THIS IS IMPORTANT: Do not take this watch to the drugstore and have the person there replace the battery. They probably won't do it correctly, and will likely break your watch. ABSOLUTELY take the instructions with you and preferably go to a jeweler to have it changed. It isn't that difficult to change (if you have decent eyesight), it is a standard battery, but you have to follow specific instructions or you can damage the watch. I am very happy with this watch, and the slight bit of trouble needed to change the battery is far better than all the frustration I had with not being able to read my other watches.", "label": 1}

- The bubble feature barely produced any bubbles. Demo videos show a roiling bubble bath, but all I got was a single stream of tiny bubbles that shifted around from one of the bubble holes to another. And after a few minutes even that stopped.
- The vibrating massage feature worked, for about ten minutes. Then the spa made a muffled clunk and the pitch of the motor changed, after which the vibrations pretty much stopped. In demo videos you can see the ripples on the water surface; after the clunk those ripples were still there only when I took my feet out, and they were much bigger and further apart.
- The white rollers are absolutely painful. Hard plastic with spikes. Stupid idea. When they're in place you can't put any weight on them, so you have to hold your feet up. Not relaxing.
- If you remove the rollers, there are sharp bits sticking up from where the rollers clip in. They are even more uncomfortable than the rollers, and since there are eight of them they're impossible to avoid.
- The attachments do not attach solidly to the center attachment point. Based on the photos you'd think that you could take your foot out and rub it on the pumice stone or other attachments. No, you can't. You'll just knock the stone loose. It's also very awkward if you try, especially since you can't put any pressure down on the other foot because of the rollers. Instead, you can to take both feet out of the bath, cross one leg over the other, and use the stone in your hand to rub your foot.
- The edges of the tub at the heel end are too close and sharp. Other folks have mentioned this, but it's hard to describe. If you sit comfortably in a chair with your feet on the floor and a few inches apart, are your knees together or spread apart? If they're spread apart, then when they're in this spa your ankles will be pressed against the hard white rim of the tub which is curved inwards.
- Noise issues: the air pump for the bubbles makes a pretty loud whine, even though it didn't produce any bubbles. I imagine the bubbling would be noisy if it worked, but you'd have to expect that. The vibrating motor seemed really noisy at first, but I realized that most of the noise was coming from the attachment with three balls in it. I had it in the attachment compartment, and it made a loud rattling. Once I took it out the motor noise wasn't too bad.
The one thing I didn't/couldn't test is the heating feature. The water I put in was already warm, since I didn't want to wait 15 minutes with the vibrations or bubbles on (necessary to turn on the heater) until the water warmed up. I can't say if the heater would keep the water warm because the spa had broken down already after ten minutes. Besides, I couldn't have lasted much longer with the spikes sticking into my feet.", "label": 0}

I have a bad back. I'm a guy, 38, about 5'8", 195lbs and I sleep on a futon on nights my wife tosses and turns in bed (which is most evenings. But hey, I snore too, so the banishment is mutual.)
After a night of sleeping on the futon, I always awake with such severe lower back pain that it literally takes me hours to just work the kinks out before I can expect to do anything productive whatsoever. It's gotten to the point where I expect the pain.
I try everything to alleviate the problem before I fall asleep: I support myself with a bed wedge, I elevate my legs, I use a pillow between my knees and I support my neck properly. I've looked into how to do all of that, trust me. My legs and neck feel okay the next day, but nothing seemed to be able to help the lower back pain.
Keep all this in mind.
I gifted this Purple brand "Simply" seat cushion to my mom last Christmas 2017. I purchased it on the maker's website as I wasn't aware it was here on Amazon at the time.
My mom has unfortunately passed away since due to a heart attack, so the cushion is here with me now, and I've personally been using it since. I'm a graphic illustrator (I work on digital artwork at a desk.) I sit most of my day. The Simply Cushion saves my rear during the day as advertised; I wasn't surprised at that.
What I WAS surprised at is, while I sleep on the futon on my side, this Purple "Simply" cushion ENTIRELY removes my lower back pains as I sleep.
Entirely. I'm not kidding. It's as if I went from a 85 year-old's back to that of a 20-something again. No kidding.
I sleep on my side and position the Simply cushion at my hip or a little lower. That's all! No more back pain!
I was so astonished at the results that I've recently also purchased the back cushion as well. I plan to use it as intended in the car and as a travel pillow.
I'm a jaded guy. I don't have high expectations for movies, video games, music, anything these days. I expect to be let down or at best, I go into things not expecting much so I'm not disappointed. TRUST ME: you should get hyped for this purchase. It'll last, it'll work, and it's reliable.
As for the scent, mine never had any whatsoever. As for any white residue I'm reading about, mine also never had any. I promise you it was brand new when purchased.

I like 9 hours of sleep at night and at least a 1/2 hour nap during the day. I am 39 years old, and have been on WBP since right after my 3rd child, so since I was about 28 years old. The changes I (and my husband) noticed were phenomenal! Within the first month, I still had a PAINFUL period, but I wasn't as moody. I was still grumpy because of the pain, but the rollercoaster of emotions wasn't there. And, my flow wasn't as heavy. Those were both awesome signs that this stuff might actually work. So, I continued to use it, and the next month, I swear to you, my moods were to a normal everyday norm. I didn't have to stay in bed for 3 days. Only one. I had a "normal" flow (whatever that is...lol). My husband would often comment on how, for that week, every month, he would want to leave town (typical, right?), but he was also amazed by the changes. He didnt even notice, by my mood, that it was time for my period. I still like my sleep, but I'm not crabby and tired if I only get 7 or 8 hours of sleep and miss my nap. I can function. At least for a few days. When I was 28, I only took WBP once a day. Now that I am 39, I take WBP every day, and twice a day 3 days before and during my period. As you get older, your needs change. Taking two a day, after you turn 30, was recommended by Dr Jan. I do NOT like taking any kind of pills. Yes I can swallow them with no problem, I just don't like putting anything in my body, but these are all natural, and worth EVERY penny. We as a family, do not have alot of $, 5 kids and one small income, but we manage to find the $ for these every month. I found the best price on Amazon. If you find a good price, if you can afford it, stock up. The price fluctuates ALOT. I hope this was helpful to you. Remember, just like anything else, you are supposed to give it 2 months to work in your system.

Compared to the others I've tried, this is one of the more expensive ones and doesn't seem to offer much in the way of differentiating functionality. As is typical, you get a IPL hair removal tool rated to around a million flashes. This one has a LCD counter of the number of flashes and the indicator of the power setting (1-5).
Operation is pretty trivial: You plug in the power supply, (the hair removal tool is NOT battery operated; you must have it plugged in), you choose the power level (five settings, chosen by rapidly pushing the bottom of the power button)) and then you aim it at a body area with hair you'd like to remove. It is recommended that your body is freshly cleaned and that the hair be shaved before starting. You can choose either on-demand flashing (via the button in the middle of the body) or else automatic flashing when skin contact is detected. Switching between the modes is accomplished by a long press of the flash activation button. The mode is indicated by a symbol in the middle of the screen.
The light is extremely powerful and could damage your eyes with continued direct exposure. Therefore, you should never look directly into the light and a cheap pair of folding protective eyeglasses are included in the box.
The light is triggered by a touch-sensitive metal area in the front of the device. Using very slow-motion photography, I was able to capture a snapshot of the light (see photos). But the light duration is extremely short.
You run the tool over the area where you want to remove hair, and make sure you exposure all the hair follicles in that region. You will not see any immediate results. The light signals your hair to stop growing, but it requires multiple treatments over several weeks before you will be expected to see results. Eventually, you should find a substantial reduction in the hair in the treated areas.
In the box, you get:
** IPL tool
** Power adapter
** Cheap pair sunglasses
** Inexpensive disposible shaver
** Instructions
This device only offers one mode: Hair removal. Other IPL devices offer other modes (skin rejuvenation and acne treatment). Whether that's a loss depends on whether you believe those other modes really work anyhow. The jury is out. Another thing you don't get with this tool is any attachments that can make it easier to address certain body areas. Some IPL removal tools include these. The actual value of such tools is subject to debate and the fundamental functionality (which is a flash of high-intensity light) does not change.
Overall, the device does what it promises to do. It's worth noting, though, that for a basic functionality IPL device, this one is priced higher than many. It's probably worth shopping around and comparing.
Pros:
** Hair removal IPL, simple to use
** LCD readout of number of flashes left and power level. Also indicates the mode (automatic, manual)
** Rated for 999,999 pulses (longer than you'd ever use it)
Cons:
** Somewhat expensive relative to other devices that only do hair removal IPL
** I prefer gun-shaped IPL tools to those, like this one, which are oblong", "label": 1}

The secret is that a very large fraction of these is made by a handful of manufacturers. Some carry different names in the listing, but they are mostly just a small number of different models with moderate cosmetic differences.
The good news is that they are mostly quite decent. They feature 0-gapped heads (or at least close to it), 600 mAh batteries, a cutting head that can be rinsed in water to clean (although you should not submerge the body of the clipper), and a small number of cheap length guides you can snap on.
The only significant differences among most of these different listings are:
1) The charge level readout. The best ones provide an LCD display of the percentage charge left. The cheap ones do not.
2) Some provide a collar that can protect the shaft going to the T-blade. This can either be a plastic collar that snaps on, or, in some cases, an extension of the metal body around that area (hiding the shaft)
3) A ceramic cutting blade. This is unusual, but a few offer a premium ceramic cutting blade
4) The pattern/design of the body
That's pretty much it. Any descriptions or reviews that try to suggest other differences are usually mistaken.
This particular set of clippers is made by Suttik (one of the common brands), and comes in a Suttik-labeled retail box. The model is JM-700AL.
Specifics of this kit:
** Rechargeable cordless T-Blade clippers
** Zero gapped cutting head (cuts close)
** Three lengths of optional length guards
** Plastic collar ring to protect the rotating shaft
** Charging cable
** Cleaning brush
** Clipper oil
** LCD readout on clipper provides charge status, but not oil reminder (not a big loss)
** Metal handle
** Ornate pattern on the handle
** IPX4 water resistance (can be cleaned under the tap, but do not submerge)
** 1500 mAh rechargeable battery (per listing)
** Retail box suitable for gifting
Common items NOT included in this kit:
None. Pretty much a standard \"complete\" T-blade kit.
Clipper operation is trivial: There's an on/off on the bottom near the top of the handle. That's it. The clippers work well. The clipper feels comfortable in the hand.
Personally, I find the design of the handle a bit juvenile--it's not my taste. But, to me, that's a trivial issue. A 1500 mAh battery in a T-blade clipper is on the large side.
As mentioned, there are a number of sellers selling this same Suttik JM-700AL (or similar) clipper under various listing brand names. This is a good option for this type of clipper but shop around for the best price, as they can fluctuate pretty drastically depending on the listing. A typical price for this clipper would be in the range of thirty dollars.", "label": 1}

This particular set of clippers is branded as Kezu & Lar T-98
Specifics of this kit:
** Rechargable cordless T-Blade clippers
** LCD readout / charge level indicator
** Plastic collar ring to protect rotating shaft
** Pretty orange-colored metal handle--good ergonomics
** Three detachable length guides, all black
** Charging cable
** Cleaning brush
** Clipper oil
** Simple, attractive design
** Retail box suitable for gifting
Clipper operation is trivial: There's an on/off on the bottom of the handle. That's it. The clippers work well. The clipper feels comfortable in the hand. Charging of the clippers is via a standard USB-C port on the bottom of the clippers. I like that a lot better than the non-standard power connectors on some clippers.
The heads are described as 0-gapped. Based on visual inspection (see photos), they are close to 0-gapped, but not quite. They will still be able to trim very close to skin level. I have reviewed other Kezu & Lar T-blade clippers in the T-98 line (also with an orange handle, but without the LCD readout), and those appeared to be truly 0-gapped. So I think there's some variation depending on the particular modely you choose.
The clippers feel very good in the hand, with the all-metal handle providing good stabilizing heft. The shape and thickness are both very nice.
On the whole, I like these clippers a lot. In terms of ergonomics and having what I want (LCD readout of battery level), these are good. I wish the heads truly 0-gapped, rather than close, but that's pretty common and they'll still do a good job of trimming. Add to that the very unusual and very pretty burnt orange color. These would make a nice gift.", "label": 1}

** Plastic collar ring to protect the rotating shaft
** Beautiful orange-colored metal handle--good ergonomics
** Three detachable length guides, all black

Charging of the clippers is via a standard USB-C port on the bottom of the clippers. I like that a lot better than the non-standard power connectors on some clippers.
The heads are 0-gapped. This makes it possible to trim right down to skin level, which is valuable for clippers of this type.
My main complaint here is the lack of a charge level indicator. The battery is more than ample for days of use at home, but it would still be nice to have an indication that the clippers are getting low on charge.
The clippers feel very good in the hand, with the all-metal handle providing good stabilizing heft. The shape and thickness are both very nice.
The 1800 mAh battery (per the manufacturer) is far larger than many of the batteries found in T-blade clippers, which is also a plus.
On the whole, I like these clippers a lot. Only wish there was an LCD readout of charge level. But in terms of ergonomics, battery size, and the 0-gapped heads, these are winners. Add to that the very unusual and very pretty burnt orange color. These would make a nice gift.", "label": 1}

The instruction manual is detailed and accurate regarding which sounds are there, and in what order, something I don't often find with a sound machine and which I most definitely appreciate. There are six different categories of sound: ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response, which theoretically stimulates tingling skin and euphoria), Animals, Life, Babies, Nature, and Combination Scene. ASMR includes such unusual sound machine noises as eating potato chips and drinking water, as well as some music selections. The Animals category includes a cicada, pigeon, seagull croak, two different sets of birdsongs, frogs croaking, and crickets. Life includes flipping through a book, a campfire, drinking coffee, keyboard sounds, a train, and a ticking clock. Babies includes two music box selections, two songs being sung, a heartbeat, a lullaby, and ringing. Nature includes dripping water, two different wind sounds, two wave sounds, two thunderstorm sounds, a waterfall, and two rain sounds. Combination Scene includes soft background music (called leisure time), an urban street, a suburban pond, ocean waves, a seashore with playing children with waves and seagulls, an aircraft terminal, a coffee shop, a thunderstorm, sounds in the forest, a farmyard, muffled voices in a library, and something called life force which sounds like blood running though a vein as heard through a stethoscope. There is also a light that can be set at \"breathing\" (changing intensity), low, medium, and high. There is also a digital readout telling the temperature and the humidity at that location, be it indoors or outdoors. (The instructions do say not to use this sound machine in a high temperature environment, though). There is a timer button (the picture of a clock) with options of 20, 40, or 60 minutes, or continuous playback. There is also a volume button. Press and hold to increase the volume to the desired level, press and hold again to decrease the volume. On it's own, the sound machine will play each sound one at a time through all the categories. Press the button with bars on it to change from category to category, and the button with musical notes on it to change from sound to sound within the category. If I find one I want to keep listening to, I can press the lock button to keep it set on that sound. It will remember the last sound played when it is next turned on. The sound machine has a battery, and charges via USB cord. The USB-micro USB cord is included, but not a USB to DC adapter. As you can probably tell, I really like this sound machine and all its many features. The original list price was $59.99, but it is currently marked down to $19.99.

A couple months after my son had started kindergarten (3 years ago), he began waking up in the middle of the night screaming. Blood-curdling screams, the \"make a parent's heart jump out of their chest and race to your child's room\" kind. Then he would just cry and moan while I held him. This would last about 15-30 minutes but he would still be mostly asleep and I couldn't even get him to actually wake up enough to communicate what was wrong. And then the next day he wouldn't remember it, he knew he'd been crying but didn't know why. The only thing I could think of at the time was that he was having nightmares. Finally one night he actually spoke and said \"it hurts\", and he was holding his leg. That's all I could get out of him but it was enough. I googled \"kids leg pain only at night\" learned about kids growing pains and how magnesium can help. First I bought 2 different kinds of chewable magnesium tablets but they didn't seem to help much. And he didn't like the taste at all. More research led me to this liquid form. I was hesitant to buy it at first, as it seemed pretty expensive. But I found one bottle lasts a LONG time. I give him one dropper fill (1ml) up to the line, mixed in a little grape juice so he could handle the taste. Other juices didn't work- only grape juice. It was a little bitter but he got used to it. Once in the morning and once before bed, just to get his magnesium levels up. After a couple months I dropped down to just once a day. The effects were immediate. He did wake up the next 2 nights after he started taking it, but with only crying instead of screaming, which was a very welcome change. Being woken up night after night by your child screaming is not a fun experience as a parent. By the 3rd night he only whimpered a few times but didn't cry. And that was it, no more waking up screaming after that. He is now in 3rd grade and has had only one episode of growing pains recently and that was when I stopped giving him his grape juice every day. I blame Covid for that, lol. Now his little brother is in kindergarten this year as well, and while his growing pains have not been nearly as severe, he did start to complain about his legs hurting 2 weeks ago, so that is what prompted me to write this review. At least his pains were during the day and he was able to tell me what was going on. I started him on the grape juice & magnesium regime and got the same result as I had gotten with his brother. After a couple days the pain was gone. Both of them are still eating me out of house and home like little Hobbits with their second breakfasts and Elevenses, but at least they are pain free now.", "label": 1}

Claiming to be a brain booster I thought to myself, sure it is as I haven\u2019t had much luck with other products in that regard. The product was on sale and the price was especially good so I decided why not, I\u2019ll give it a try, the worst it can do is flare my IBD for a short time which is not a high price to pay for a product that could potentially be a long term winner. I was receiving the product at a discount in exchange for an honest review so I clicked through the buying process and sure enough the Amazon Prime delivery van dropped the box at my door in two days flat.
When I opened the package I had a good look at the proprietary blend of ingredients which included;
\u201cDMAE Bitartrate, L Glutamine, Glutamic Acid, Green Tea Extract, Bacopa Extract, Choline, Inositol, N Acetyl L Tyrosine, Bilberry Fruit Extract, GABA, Grape Seed Extract, Grape Fruit Seed Extract, Olive Leaf, Cinnamon Bark Extract, Licorice Root Extract, Boron, DHA, Vanadyl Sulfate, Phosphatidylserine, Huperzine A, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B6, Folic Acid Pure, Biotin, Vitamin B5, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Zinc, Selenomethionine, Copper, Manganese, Chromium, Molybdenum, Potassium\u201d.
Reading the list over I saw many of the ingredients listed are of plants and minerals which I have had an interest in for many years now. The issues I have found with these is getting them in the proper quantities to effect a positive influence. Hoping for the best I decided to take a half dose, just one single pill, as my system seems to be prone to reacting poorly from ingesting new things as well as prone to being overly sensitive to excessive quantities. I must say I was amazed at how quickly I felt the influence. Within a half hour or so, I was not only clearly focused, I was also highly energized, without jitters. I found myself driven in ways that aren\u2019t typical for me without having taken a supplement specifically for such a thing so there is no doubt in my mind that this product not only works but works quite well.

I am amazed at the relief from my neck and shoulder tension, which has been a constant for me for 12 years! I am in my 40s, and take no prescriptions, and have no severe issues. I originally found Dr. Dean's website about three years ago and started taking Magnesium Glycinate pills on her recommendation, as it does not cause a laxitave effect. I took it originally because I read it could help with dizziness. After reading more of Dr Dean's information, and her book The Magnesium Miracle, I bought this ReMag and LOVE it! It helps absorb Vit D, so if you supplement with that, you should be taking Mag, it relieves dizziness, and I am sleeping very soundly through the night, (I used to have a few nights per week where I would wake up at 3 or 4am, and couldn't fall back to sleep for 1-2 hours). Now I am feeling completely rested in the morning, which I haven't felt in a few years, and completely unexpectedly, the headaches I have had for years from muscle tension in my neck and back and shoulders is gone! Like really gone!
I knew Mg was good for relaxing muscles, but I had NO idea it would get rid of the knots. I had been going to a massage therapist ea month for 7+ years, but now I go to one less often.
I cannot say enough how wonderful this product is. I have been starting excercising again at a gym with weights. I have been taking the higher dose for two weeks now, and will update here in a few months. I just wish more doctors, health blogs, or therapists would shout this everywhere. If you suffer from neck tension and knots, insomnia, axiety, dizziness, try this! My symptoms seemed minor, and just normal signs of getting a little older, but I really feel it was a Mg deficiency, even though I eat healthy, am not overweight, never smoke, nor drink heavily.
The taste of ReMag is odd. But I put 1/2 tsp in a small glass with 2-3 oz juice, swallow that, then drink a glass of water. And it is just fine.
Dr. Dean is really on to something and I am so grateful she persists in her work. I am reading her book, and I don't agree with everything, but I believe she has a lot of great information and is doing the right thing in questioning traditional medicine. You have to be an advocate for your own health and read as much as you can about any medicine or supplement.
****Update- I have been taking this for over a year now and am still so happy with it! It keeps the tension headaches and muscle aches to a minimum. I take 1 1/2 tsp/ day. Usually at night. It is a terrible taste, but I just use a dropper, under my tongue and take a glass of water afterwards. Not a problem at all.", "label": 1}

Determined that I would actually follow through this year, I looked for ways of making the process more interesting and more fun. I enjoy technology, so I added some new apps to my phone, shopped for gadgets that would help to measure my progress, and looked for other ways to maintain motivation.
I already had a very good (and accurate) beam scale, just like the ones that you used to see in every doctor's office, but the idea of wirelessly recording and tracking my weight loss, especially since I was already a user of a Fitbit One, was very appealing. Anyway, I ordered the Aria Smart Scale, and a couple of days later, Amazon delivered it.
Setup was very simple with my iPad, and within a few minutes of opening the box, I was up and running. Very cool -- I thought I was all set. I moved the old beam scale down to the basement where I have a couple of pieces of exercise equipment, and installed the Aria scale in its place in the master bathroom.
Stepping onto the Aria, I got a reading that was about a half a pound less than my previous day's weight on the old scale, so I thought GREAT, I'm making progress, and the Aria seems to know what its doing. The next day, back onto the Aria, and damn, how could I have gained two pounds overnight? I stepped on again, and now I was only 0.4 pounds over the previous day's weight. Further attempts provided even more disparate results. What am I doing wrong?
I went to the Fitbit website to check for some tips on ways to improve accuracy, read the FAQ's, and noted that the scale is supposed to be accurate within +/- 2.0 pounds, which in my estimation, isn't very helpful when you're trying to lose weight. Nevertheless, I followed all the website suggestions -- none of which improved the accuracy of the scale. (NB: I never pay any attention to the body fat reading -- which seems to vary widely, each time you step onto the scale)
Today, I weighed myself 5 times in the space of an hour. I didn't eat or drink anything between weigh-ins, I wasn't engaged in any strenuous activity -- and I ended up with a different reading each time that I stepped on to the Aria scale. While this might be acceptable if you simply want a general indication of your weight -- when you're watching every calorie you put in your mouth, when you're exercising regularly and working hard to reach a goal -- a half pound one way or the other is serious business. It's very discouraging when one day your scale says you're making progress, then the next day, slaps you down by recording a weight that you thought you'd left behind 3 or 4 days earlier. I don't think that it's unreasonable to expect a scale to be consistent!
Needless to say, the Aria and my old (and accurate) beam scale will be swapping places.
If you're on a weight loss regimen -- I would NOT recommend the Aria Smart scale!", "label": 0}

We had to buy parts from Home Depot (and we looked at Lowe\u2019s too) and replace a lot of parts that would not work from its own product/box. We spent around $60 on parts for this. I wanted to send it back but was on a time crunch.
The reviews and Q\u2019s and A\u2019s about installation are WRONG. This product is easy to install but hard at the same time. I will explain why.
Installation- when it comes to your drain line, the drain line itself would not screw on to what\u2019s known as the bowl portion of it. So we had to buy a new bowl and a new drain line. The water line is a 3/8\u2019s. Your source if installing in your laundry room comes from a 3/4, then you have to buy an elbow that reduces it down to 3/8. No big deal. We knew this before purchasing. But what we didn\u2019t know is this product is made in China. What does that mean for you installing? Their 3/8 is not the same as ours. So u have to purchase more parts to convert over to our 3/8\u2019s. Well why buy another if their 3/8\u2019s can attached to ours? It can attach but it will not be correctly attached and will start to leak. Water will follow the least past of resistance meaning as it is forced from the incoming line it is constantly pushing to flow out and it will start to slowly leak which will lead up to a bigger leak and if you install this behind your wall, you will have a leak and who knows how long it will be prior to actually seeing your leak. Your water bill will indicate a leak but until you see the water coming down the ceiling or on your floor, it can stay within your wall structure and joints/beams. So you have to make sure to purchase one that thoroughly screws on when installing and make sure you use Teflon tape. So you install the drain lines, install the incoming water lines. Is that it? Yes. From this point you can turn on your water line with minimum pressure and test it one side at a time. Checking for leaks. If everything is good then you are good to go.
This is by far the worst product I have ever purchased on Amazon. The only way I would give this a better review is if the company itself gave me a refund for what I had to spend at Home Depot for their parts that would not screw on/work. Even if they did, I still would not give it a 5 because it wld not be right to the next person wanting to buy this.
I highly recommend you looking into an American built one for the sake of saving you money because every house and everything sold at Lowe\u2019s and Home Depot will work together through that.

(Cleaned it daily, applied warm compresses.) Normally for me these clear up in a week or so, but this one did not. The head went away but the stye turned hard and was somewhat painful by the end of December I went to my eye Dr. He said the stye had turned into a chalazion and that more than likely I would have to have it cut out. He gave me a heavy dose of antibiotics to take along with an expensive eye drop Azasite ($60 after insurance). I was also to continue to do hot compresses 3 times a day. He said if by the end of January if there was no improvement he would schedule the removal \ud83d\ude2c (He seemed very sure that surgery would be my outcome). By January 23rd I had not noticed any improvement at all.... the chalazion hurt when I cleaned it or pressed on it in any way. I ran across this product and placed my order...after all what did I have to lose right?!? I received the product quickly by the afternoon of the 26th I did my first application which was when I took the first picture (top). I continued my hot compresses as well ( also taking fish oil tablets by this point as well). By the second day my chalazion felt really like it was going to explode so I took this to mean there was definitely something happening within my chalazion. It was very sore when I rubbed in the oil that afternoon even more so than before. By the next day the size had a noticeable improvement and all scoreness was gone. I could literally press very firmly with a q-tip and have no pain (3 days in using this product) . I am at day 4 now (2 pic bottom). I definitely feel I am on my way to getting rid of this. I will continue using this product til it clears up and possibly some after to make sure. I will update as to my outcome and how long my process took. But for now I can say it is not an overnight fix but it seems to work and I wish I had used this in the beginning because I feel like it would not have drug out this long. I recommend this to anyone who wants to avoid surgery.
*** Update Day 5****
Woke up this morning to a head that has appeared on the chalazion!! This is a great sign\u263a\ufe0f (pic 3)
***Update day 6****
The chalazion had two heads that had appeared yesterday this morning one popped after applying a hot compress the other popped while I was applying the oil to my lid. I am seriously impressed with this product!! I am not going to take a photo today. There is still some redness but the hard bump in completely gone!!! I will wait til tomorrow to take the photo and update on where I am. Amazing!!!! So happy to avoid surgery \ud83d\ude01\ud83d\ude01\ud83d\ude01", "label": 1}

It isn't as loud as a rock concert, but after three hours of music I've been going home with ears ringing and sometimes ringing in the morning. I wore DownBeats this week!
Unsurprisingly: no ringing in the ears.
Surprisingly: I think (just maybe) it was easier to hear my dance partner talking than without. I usually have to ask girls to repeat themselves endlessly. (The only problem was I had to remember to talk loudly because it brings everything down to a normal level and are comfortable enough to forget about.)
* Visibility: Obviously not invisible. I'm not sure how visible they are, but no one commented on them in low light of the venue. Definitely not visible to someone in front of you.
* Frequency attenuation: Seems very even across spectrum (listening to voices and acoustic instruments). But surely not enough protection for spending three days at a music festival. Also perfect for motorcycling or driving in convertible (cuts down wind noise just enough). I tried wearing them to the grocery store; it was pleasant as background noise fades away, but missed a few words when talking to the checkout clerk.
* Comfort: Very comfortable at the point where they are sealed and working correctly. If you push them in quite a bit further (to where they are probably barely visible) they get a lot less comfortable. They are a tiny bit adjustable--You can leave them a little loose and they will dampen sound some, but not fall out! The stem doesn't stick out far enough to interfere with motorcycle helmet--and I just tried laying on pillow and that is perfectly comfortable too.
* Practical: Easy to insert and not difficult to remove (I can't figure out why other reviewers want tweezers to pull these out); washable plastic; key-chain container is helpful and better thought-out than most ear-plug containers.
* Size: I occasionally use ear plugs that are too big and uncomfortable; I've never used any too small. I can imagine these could be too big for small ears; the core of these is a hard plastic shaft that doesn't taper down.
Favorite feature: short stem = discrete and can use while sleeping or under motorcycle helmet.
I'm totally delighted with the product, and although it seems like you should get two pairs for your $14 (or maybe a half-off coupon for another pair), the quality makes them a very reasonable price. But expensive enough I'm hoping that the soft plastic eartip piece is durable enough to last a couple years.
** Update. I've been using these a couple times a week for nearly a year. The ear plugs are holding up well. The key chain case occasionally unscrews in your pocket, but obviously not a big deal. I will concede that for riding my motorcycle, I prefer a pair of MSA Tri-Seal Ear Plugs which fit further in your ear and have three flanges, features which prevent them from backing out (these occasionally get loose and have to stop and take off helmet to reinsert...).", "label": 1}

Liquid medications and I usually do not get along. At 53-yo I still have to hold my nose and chug 'em down to get it over with quickly.
I gave careful consideration to the comments about the taste because of the heavy concentration of Stevia. I use Stevia and I know what it means to use too much. Long story short, the cost of antibiotics on my body and pocketbook far outweigh the costs of gagging on liquids or the possibility of Stevia overkill. The plus side to purchasing the Samsara Lyme and Biofilm herbals is that I recently read Stevia is proving to be a Lyme bacteria killer. I decided to go for broke, so to speak.
First, I tried the two formulas with Keifer thinking the sour/salty flavor would tone down the sweetness of the Stevia. It's okaaaay, but nooooot great. Didn't do that again. Next, I tried it with 100% juice - cran-raspberry and that still didn't float my boat (at all). Didn't do that again either. Then, the bells went off! (You already know that Lyme Disease causes cognition issues... slow thinking, right?)
I am a decaf (unsweetened) iced tea drinker. Wow .. that was a game changer! I held my nose at first, but discovered it really wasn't necessary. Drinking it this way reminded me of buying (won't mention brand name) bottled teas at a convenience store; not really tea IMHO, but they work if you are thirsty enough. Same incentive in this case, but replace the incentive outcome with "if you desperately want to get well again the natural way".
I didn't go full out according to Samsara's recommended dosing; rather, I followed the same LLMD treatment protocol (M, W, F 1st week of 4-week cycle) as if I was taking the prescribed antibiotics. I had very mild- to almost unnoticeable herxing which was "mildly tired, but still didn't have to go back to bed" the day after dosing.
The founder's story of being a Lyme patient really was the number one factor in deciding to go this route. To me, that is credibility enough. Plus, judging by the success I've had thus far, I'm pretty sure I am headed in the right direction with having taken this route. Incidentally, I started with the 2 oz package to be on the safe side, and now I can safely say I will move up to the more economical 8 oz. bag with my next purchase.

{"sid": 3542, "id": 323631, "interval": [600, 700], "len_words": 494, "len_tokens": 620, "text": "I purchased a number of different LED lights to compare, including this 10.5W Philips LED. It seems like almost every LED light has some limitations and works better in certain scenarios than others. I personally found this little light to be quite versatile though. Its main limitations are:
1) It cannot be used with a dimmer. Most of my lights are not on dimmer switches anyway, so this wasn't a significant limitation for me.
2) It is somewhat directional, as it directs more light away from the base and somewhat less light to the sides (though it's not as directional as some other LEDs I have tried). One thing to be mindful of is that it may look a little funny in certain scenarios (e.g. when inside of a globe fixture that you want illuminated evenly in all directions). In those types of scenarios, it may be better to go with a light like the [[ASIN:B00APTS03K Philips 424382 11-Watt A19 LED Household Soft White Light Bulb, Dimmable]] (which is a light that has neither of these limitations).
With those limitations stated, there are many things I do like about this little light.
1) It puts out a lot of light - supposedly equivalent to a 60W light bulb, though I think it looks brighter.
2) It's small and doesn't put out much heat. Many LED bulbs that I purchased are somewhat large and put out lots of heat. This is the smallest light of the 5 types that I bought and actually slightly smaller than a standard incandescent bulb.
3) It's quite efficient at 10.5W, and it has a good Color Rendering Index (rated at 80).
4) It comes on instantly when you turn on the light switch. Half the LEDs that I've purchased have about a 1/2 second delay when you turn on the light switch (which makes me second guess whether I hit the right switch sometimes), but not this one.
5) It has a 6 year warranty. Some other LED brands have much shorter warranties. If I'm paying this much for a light bulb, I want a good warranty.
6) For an LED light, it's pretty reasonably priced at this time.
Some final thoughts: This light bulb has a color temperature rating of 3000K. Incandescent bulbs are around 2700K. So, this light will look a little \"whiter\" than a standard incandescent bulb. Whether you like or dislike this is largely a matter of preference. I generally like the color.
I have one of these bulbs mounted pointing upward in a lamp fixture that directs light towards the ceiling in a room with tan-colored walls. Items in this room and skin tones look natural to me. I have another bulb mounted pointing downward in a ceiling globe in a room with baby blue walls. I feel like skin tones in this room look a little off to me. That's my subjective opinion though.
I generally like this light and will find uses for it in many fixtures in my house.", "label": 1}

I initially liked it but I've grown disillusioned with it over time. My cycles are quite irregular and while it can be used if you don't have regular cycles, it really isn't practical. I never get any green days after day 6 of my period until after I ovulate, which could be as late as day 25-30 of my cycle. Even though in all this time I've never, ever, ovulated anywhere near day 14 it still seems to take the ultra conservative approach and give me red days after my period.
The interface is not intuitive and I often find myself having to consult the manual because I forget how to enter data. The user manual is not well written and does not explain a lot of the data the machine records. For example it records \"planning hits\". What in the heck is that? No idea b/c it isn't explained anywhere.
Also, it is very, very expensive if you need to replace parts. I have an old version of the user manual which said you can choose to leave the unit plugged in or unplugged. Turns out that leaving it plugged in all the time drains the battery - and the new version of the manual tells you not to leave it plugged in all the time. Also, the new version states you should recharge the unit monthly when it is not in use. My version of the user manual did not say that. So, I left it alone after my daughter was born and when I was ready to use it again when she was about a year old the battery was completely dead. You have to send it to Canada to be replaced for about $50. It came back and then it turned out that my power supply plug no longer worked. That was about another $50 to replace. Supposedly they can retrieve your historic data off the machine when you send it in in for repair, but they could not get any data off of my machine. Now I think my thermometer is going bad because my temps are very erratic, but I've decided it's just not worth it to put any more money into this contraption. On the plus side, RaxMedical customer service is very good and can often help you troubleshoot remotely.
I got pregnant with my daughter (planned) on a yellow day. I'd already been using it for over a year by that point but it was still trying to interpret my cycles. It might work great if you have predictable cycles but it does not with irregular ones.
To me it is really just an overpriced thermometer. It's nice that it stores your information, making it easier to chart on paper when it is convenient for you instead of needing to record your temperature right away after you wake up. But, it's just not worth the price when you can chart for free on Fertility Friend.
PS, I accidentally discovered a feature that is not mentioned in the user manual. If you press the + button on the right hand side repeatedly about 20 times it eventually goes back to temperature taking mode and you can take a second temperature for the day.", "label": 0}

If you look up the cause to bunions, you will find that there are different theories. Some people think it is the result of a tight shoe and others think its genetics. Either way they concluded that it deals with the big toe leaning toward the second toe rather then pointing straight ahead as it should. Because of this, the bones are thrown out of alignment producing the bunion you may have forming around your big toe's joint.
From my personal experience of dealing with a painful 2 week bunion, you will definitely need a toe separator, proper doses of ibuprofen for swelling, and an ice pack to also keep down the swelling on your bunion. This toe separator will probably be the most important thing you will need to correct the problem. It will help align your toe into its proper place which should prevent an even worse bunion from continuing to swell around your big toe's joint.
This product from my personal experience has a huge advantage over those you may find at Walmart. The first thing I like about this product is that it is very comfortable. The material used isn't a hard plastic or a very tight product. This toe separator is made of a gel like substance that can stretch out over your toes without the fear of it tearing in your hands. If you go to your local Walmart they have some similar products but they are made of a bandage material and are very tight and very difficult and painful to put on. You may also find other products that have to wrap around your foot to keep your toe separated. Although they do the job, you can not walk around with it on! That is why I simply love this product. It is so simple that it allows you to continue walking around without having to remove it. It is also nice that they give you two different products both with an extra toe separator. All in all a great product, good to keep with your medical supplies because bunions can always come back. I did receive this product for free for my honest and unbiased review.
I would also like to point out, in case you never had a bunion before, it is important to place ice on the bunion to bring down the swelling. I would also suggest taking ibuprofen and following the dosage shown on the label to help with pain and swelling. My bunion was so painful that I could not place any pressure on my foot or walk. It was not until I used a toe separator, took medication, and placed ice on the swelling did I start feeling relief to walk again. However, when I stop taking ibuprofen the swelling would come back and I would find myself unable to place pressure on my foot. I had to keep the toe separator on my foot for a few days before I no longer needed it, but you will definitely see the difference in your bunion. You may have a different level of pain then I did so it is ultimately up to you how you would like to handle the situation. I would only like to suggest that you definitely get a toe separator to align your toe to prevent the bunion from getting worse.

I have degenerative joint and disk disease. I have already had two cervical neck fusion surgeries and am trying to delay yet another one. I am frequently in severe pain but refuse to take pain pills as I want to keep my wits about me. For the past two months, I have been getting acupuncture and aggressive massage to help reduce the pain and to again allow me to look to my left direction.
I have told my wife for years now that I wished I had some sort of home traction machine. Over those years, I would sit on the floor Indian styled and she would lift from under my jaw in an attempt to remove some of the pressure. I also have an inversion table. Recently I was on that table and wearing my motorcycle helmet to provide some targeted stretching but with little benefit.
I want to note how pleased I am with this device. I have used it repeatedly over the past week to give it a thorough testing. The results are wonderful. To go from extreme pain one moment to little or no pain 15 minutes later is great. Moreover, that pain relief often last for a day.
It does take one or two times using this device to get used to wearing it. I have a thick football player type of neck, so this device initially had a tendency to ride up my neck muscles. However, I now learned to first slightly snug pump the device up and then hold it down and back under my neck while it inflated the device to very firm. Once it was inflated, I made an effort to further stretch my neck back and over the top edges of the device. I wear this device no more than 15 minutes a day, usually while watching TV.
The device has two long straps that go across the neck opening and velcros to the opposite side. I keep the lower strap loose enough that it does not touch my throat. The upper strap firmly snugs up under my chin and jaws. The only down side is that it does take a lot of pumping to inflate the device. I generally inflate it half way, close the pump wheel, and rest for a few seconds. The balance of the inflation can be made with the pump wheel barely open so you do not have to fight too much with air trying to escape.
This device has answered my dream. I am very pleased with the results and with the sturdiness of this product, I expect it to provide relief for years to come. I now hope to delay another surgery for several years.

I spent way more for this than I typically do to review a product, but I had to have it. I love having my feet massaged. I've had Swedish massage, acupressure, deep tissue, reflexology, and I've even been Rolfed. I even had a friend once who would give me a foot massage in exchange for fresh pineapple. I made sure I always had one around when he visited. (This massager is better than he was.)
This is an odd machine. It resembles a bumper car and even has its own headlight. It provides the following functions from which to choose:
Self-Timer (10, 20, 30 minutes)
Shiatsu (On/Off)
Program mode (P1, P2)
Pressure (F1, F2, F3, F4, F5)
Heating (H1, H2)
There are really only two functions: 1) round knobs under your feet that move back and forth; 2) air bags similar to BP cuffs above your feet that inflate (and then deflate) and put pressure to the top of your feet which also serves to push your feet harder against the moving knobs. Most of the actions occurs to the front half of your feet with the heels getting little action. What's odd is that there appear to be six knobs around the heel (two rows of three knobs), but only the center knob of each row moves. It would have been much better if all six knobs moved.
The heating function doesn't work that well. I think that's where this massager really needs attention. And the program modes don't excite me much. They seem the same and aren't as good as turning on Shiatsu and air pressure.
The foot sockets have liners that can be unzipped and removed for cleaning. The bottom of the unit has two indents you can slide your fingers into to pick this up to move. The cord is somewhat thin and short.
Overall, the massage feels really good. I've been able to get the air pressure up to only F3, and that was after I used this for a few days. Too much air pressure pushing your feet against the knobs can be painful if you're not ready for it, but there is a button to release the air if you get uncomfortable. I've also found that I can slide my size 10 feet around a little inside for different effect. I also like to put them in at an angle so that knobs can massage the outer side of my foot. Yum. I wish the heater worked better, and I really wish there was a compartment built into this to hold the power cord/transformer so I didn't have to carry it around separate from the massager.
If you work on your feet, you're going to love coming home and slipping them into this unit. You don't have to beg anyone for relief. This is an expensive toy, but if you can afford it, go for it.", "label": 1}

BC30 is short for GanedenBC30\u00ae (Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086), a patented strain of Bacillus bacteria. The bacteria forms endospores, giving the spores a tough outer shell that can survive extreme conditions. This is the basis for the claim that the probiotics in this product survive stomach acids better than many other forms of probiotics. Other ingredients in the product are: dark chocolate (chocolate liquor, sugar, cocoa butter, soy lecithin, vanilla), maltodextrin, soybean oil, confectioner's glaze (shellac, coconut and canola oil), acacia gum, and corn syrup; thus, this product should not be consumed by people with soy allergies or gum sensitivities. According to the package, one nugget constitutes one serving, and contains 30 calories, with 1.5 g fat, 2 g sugar, and 0.36 mg iron. The package is a foil bag that includes a plastic zip for reclosure (the plastic zip on my bag malfunctioned from the start).
I was quite impressed with the taste of these little chocolate nuggets. If you let them melt in your mouth, they compare to middle-of-the-road chocolate truffles, such as Lindt. There is certainly no indication from the flavor that this is supposed to be a nutraceutical. I tried taking one a day for a month. I didn't notice any differences in my digestive tract or immune system during the month. But then, I also eat a bowl of natto (fermented soy) every day, which contains additional probiotics. What I did notice when I first started taking these chocolate nuggets was chocolate-indigestion after each dose. I'm sensitive to dark chocolate, which tends to give me gastroparesis if the chocolate is strong enough. So yes, there is plenty of actual chocolate in these nuggets. Fortunately, after about a week, my belly adjusted to the daily dose of dark chocolate, and I was able to eat the rest of the nuggets without problems. In any case, if chocolate tends to give you indigestion, gastric reflux, or gastroparesis, this is not the right probiotic product for you. Also, if you have control issues--if you open a bag of chocolates or cookies and can't stop eating until the bag is empty, this product is not for you. What's going to happen if you eat the whole bag? Nothing-- GanedenBC30\u00ae has been thoroughly tested for safety, but at $0.52 and 30 calories per nugget, you're going to wish you hadn't brought them into the house. Better to stick to another probiotic formulation that is easier to take just one of.
Overall, this is an easy way to incorporate probiotics into your daily routine. Just be aware that these nuggets contain real dark chocolate, and may be habit forming.", "label": 1}

Even though it absorbs quickly I still think it\u2019s a good idea to apply it 15-30 minutes before sun exposure. That is just my personal preference and what I have found works best for my kids.
Since this SPF 30 Broad Spectrum Sunscreen for Kids is water resistant it makes it nice for the kids to play in the water without worrying it\u2019s going to run and irritate the kids eyes. I use SPF 30 sunscreens when we are in a more shaded area or when we aren\u2019t going to be in the sun for very long or during the harmful sun hours
When we will be out in direct sun for many hours or I know it\u2019s not possible to avoid the harmful times of 10 Am to 2 PM I will always go towards a higher SPF.
The level of SPF in this sunscreen is very good for every day use. I\u2019ve noticed we\u2019re able to enjoy our park time with no sunburns when we get home. There is no funny white film on our skin and its mess free. I love that there is no oily residue.

One of my sons has sensitive skin, when using the Sun\u2019n\u2019Fun Broad Spectrum Sunscreen for Kids he had absolutely no reaction, rashes or itching. It worked very nicely for him.
This is a great sunscreen that works very well and is made of fabulous ingredients we all want for our children.

Without a doubt I can say as a mother and as a pediatric nurse one of the most important and preventative things we can do for our children and teach our children is the importance of sunscreen. No matter if you tan, burn or barely go out in the sun. Sunscreen protection is needed. Just an ounce of prevention now can save us and our loved ones horrible consequences.

I have several pairs of Oster A5's, and top of the line Andis shears... all of them significantly more expensive than these...but these by far seem to be the more substantial, and expensive of the bunch. (If I didn't know the sales prices or brands.)
Starting with the great molded case, the two extra replaceable motor brushes, and the tools and oil that it comes with.
I ordered this to use primarily on my dog, (Based on some great reviews of Arksen's other shears being used on canines) due to his often getting thick mats, that are difficult on the Oster's and Andis's. The blades get really hot and uncomfortable against his skin, and I have to keep switching from one to the other. I ordered these when my dog was overdue for his spring cut..and boy was he matted. I was anxiously waiting to clip him until these arrived. So right after these arrived, I got right to it.
I must say, these cut right through mats like crazy...a huge improvement... however, I personally wouldn't buy these as your only set of shears for use on a dog. These are some BIG...POWERFUL...and loud shears, with some huge blades. I also wouldn't use these on a dog if you don't know what you are doing... you wouldn't want to nick your dog's skin with these...as they are big teeth, with a tremendously powerful motor. I must admit, I was pretty nervous, and only used these when I got to the thicker mats, in areas that I could be careful to not get any skin into the teeth.
Also, know that they are not designed for a "finished" smooth, look to the fur. Plan to either go back over with other shears to "even out" the cut marks, or use when you don't mind a bit more of a rougher look. :-) They are also big/heavy, so a bit awkward to handle easily. If you consider yourself to be "dainty" at all...these probably aren't for you. (If you remember "Tim the Tool-man Taylor... well he would have LOVED these shears!! I can hear him grunting right now as I imagine him holding these monsters! :-)
Overall, I am incredibly impressed with the power, quality, and design of these, as well as the value that they represent for sure!! I am convinced that those with larger animals will be even happier with them, and I am thrilled to have them for those tough spots, that can take so long with other shears.

After using these for a while, I've decided that they almost tie for my favorite pair of ear plugs. Definitely worth the reasonable price! The only reason they aren't my "most favorite" pair is that I bought the Alpine MusicSafe ear plugs after writing the original review. The Alpines are probably my favorite overall plugs, because they have different filters that you can change out to fine tune the volume reduction. But the DownBeats are VERY similar to the Alpines, so if you don't want to spend as much, get the DownBeats. You won't be disappointed.
*************
ORIGINAL REVIEW:
I have these, as well as Etymotic ER20 ear plugs, Erasers Musicians plugs, and I've also used standard foam ear plugs. These are my favorite of all. Here are the details...
FIT: These are made of a soft plastic, much like the material of the Etys. They have 2 flanges compared to the Etys 3, and they seem to seal in the ear well without going too deeply into the ear canal. They are by far the easiest ear plugs to insert that I have ever owned. They're also easy to remove, even though the stem doesn't stick out very far from your ear. In comparison, my #1 complaint with the Etys is fit/comfort. The Etys are extremely uncomfortable; they feel like they're poking too far into my ear canal and my ears get sore after wearing them for only a few minutes. The stems stick out too far and make them easy to bump and dislodge from my ears. The Earasers fall somewhere in between DownBeats and Etys for comfort. They don't hurt like the Etys, but they're made of a harder material, so they don't seem to seal as well. I've tried both the small and medium sized Earasers, with similar results from both.
SOUND QUALITY:
The DownBeats sound pretty good to my ear. They lower the sound enough to make it comfortable to listen. They do muffle the sound somewhat, but not as badly as standard foam ear plugs. To my ears, the Etys also muffle the sound, and at the same time they don't lower the volume enough for me. The Earasers seem to have the most clear sound of the three, but the volume is not lowered enough...I just don't feel that they are protecting my hearing. Some of my problems with the Earasers and Etys not lowering the volume enough may be my own fault. Maybe I'm not getting them inserted properly, but if it's that much trouble to get them inserted properly, they're not the solution for me.
So far DownBeats are my favorite plugs. The slightly muffled sound is really the only thing that I'm not 100% happy with on the DownBeats. I plan to try Alpine MusicSafe plugs at some point, just to see if they sound clearer, so I'll update my review with comparison to those as well.", "label": 1}

I bought this table for multiple uses. For the most part, we don't need a medical bed table per se, but we do benefit from it.
Personally, I've only been in the hospital for births, so really only positive expereinces. The 2 things I've always missed when coming home are the adjustable bed, and the super handy overbed tables.
This is why I purchased the table. It's handy. I've used it to work on my computer in bed, study and write notes. Sometimes it's nice to be able to snuggle with a chld while helping them them with a lesson. In the past, I've used lap desks, and they work, but you can't more, iwhen you do mov you have to reconfigure the lab desk and re-stabalize it. Wiht a wiggly kid, that can be nearly impossible.
The pverbed table is perfect, it rolls under the bedframe so that you can positition the table where you need it.
WE LOVE it. My husband already wants one for his side of the bed too.. (yes he gets to borrow mine)
The table itself is very sturdy. It lists a 40 pound limit. I've not tried to test that, but it feels like it would handle fine.
It was not hard to assemble. There are 6 screws to hold the main mount to the table.
The caster wheels simple push in - just make sure the locking wheels are on the long pols side so that they are outside the bed, but under it if you want to lock them.)
Then there is a screw that needs to be removed to allow the height adjustment to work, and then a very small one to put in it's place.
The height adjust works flawlessly. It goes up quite high. Our bed is pretty high to begin with so I was a little concerned, but it does lift high enough for our bed.
The table moves smoothly on the caster wheels. I would trust having food or a drink on it and moving it around. It's does not bounce or shake as it's moved. We do have low carpet in our bedroom as well and it rolls just fine with good stability.
The only minor issue I had with the table - 1 of the 6 pre-drilled holes for the screws that attach to the table was not drilled right. For now, I installed 5 screws - the missing one is not on a corner, which makes it less of a concern). When he has time I will let my husband install the last screw. It's plenty stable though, without it.
I would love to use this table in my living-room, but unfortunately at the moment out couches are very very low to the ground and this could not fit under them. I've never seen any type of table that has a small enough base to slide under these couches. This is in no way a reflection of this product, it's not intended to work under any couch and ours is especially low to the ground. I just love the table enough that I wish I could use it there too.
If one of us did need to spend an extended period of time in bed, this would be an invaluable tool. I can't recommend it enough for anyone that it's essentially bed ridden or mostly immobile.", "label": 1}

BASICS:
\u00b7 I Distill about two gallons monthly
\u00b7 Appears good quality -item as described. So far- worth money
\u00b7 No warranty -then again the price is hard to beat.
\u00b7 Arrived FedEx Ground in five days using their $3 shipping
\u00b7 No damage to outer package
\u00b7 Packaging cushion Styrofoam top and bottom - none side
\u00b7 Contains solid anti-scale compound but no extra filters
\u00b7 Unit is supplement to eight-year old Kenmore (still operating has loose "ON" button last four years but still operates flawlessly.) -except for cosmetic differences has same dimensions and operation.
ASSEMBLY simple - one minute.
INSTRUCTIONS are brief for a basic unit (bottom reservoir, top head condensor/fan.)
Instructions reminds me of German Chinese with about dozen run-on words; e.g.,
"Thiswillpreventin uriesfromscaldingwaterandprolong." Images on page 4 shows basic assembly.
A bit of overkill is "Rinse and wipe out tank everyday"
The image shows location of filter but not how to replace them. Carefully squeeze the filter holder and rock it out. Reverse once new filter installed. I don't use filters that often.
OPERATION:
\u00b7 Connect in order listed in instructions.
\u00b7 I never fill to capacity - usually inch below mark may be reason Kenmore has lasted eight years plus.
\u00b7 Use hot tap water and distilled water first appears in about 10 minutes.
\u00b7 Be certain to wipe off any water on white outside immediatety. Only let water touch the inside.
\u00b7 Slide bottom reservoir outlet nozzle into metal notched cover placed over plastic pitcher.
\u00b7 Start Button labeled as "ON"
\u00b7 Keep ON depressed one second and unit starts. Unit hesitates to restart for subsequent operation until it cools
\u00b7 Be certain fan operating when red light/heating occurs.
\u00b7 The pitcher is about 1/4 inch short - use cover from dessert whipped topping to elevate then slide into distiller notch.
CLEANING
\u00b7 To avoid lots of cleaning, observe where on pitcher the water level is when unit shuts off - in future, when level approaches that, pull out power plug. This will leave small amount of water in bottom and not bake residue into reservoir.
\u00b7 Follow the instruction: "Calcifcationandscalewillbuilduponbottomofthetankandshouldbe" as scale does build up on all these units (including the higher priced ones).
\u00b7 You don't need to start unit to clean, simply use hot tap water and occasionally swirl the reservoir to remove scale high on inside wall. Wipe with cloth inside.
\u00b7 I recommend sprinkling a small amount of crystals in couple ounces water after each day's distillation to flake off scale.
\u00b7 Amazon, Lowe's, HomeDepot stock the descaler.
\u00b7 Make certain to thoroughly rinse tank -even if some scale remains - to remove trace of corrosive material. Avoid breathing off gases.", "label": 1}

The first brand had a bitter taste, so I used it only in coffee, but never in tea. Also, that other brand clumped horribly in lukewarm or cold beverages. Still, it was the best that I could find, so I continued to use it for about 2 years.
In contrast Stevita Supreme is not bitter, so I can use it in tea. Also, I am also able to use it in cool beverages with almost no clumping, but you do have to remember to stir the liquid just before adding the Stevia, rather than just pouring it in any which way. Don't put the Stevia in the glass and then pour the liquid in on top, or it will clump a bit (although nowhere near as horribly as the last brand I bought).
It does have an aftertaste in the same way that Equal or other non-sugar sweeteners do. If you are annoyed by those types of non-sugar tastes, you will be annoyed by this too. That said, it does not have a taste WORSE than (or stronger than) Equal or other such sweeteners. Just different.
In any event, I am trying to keep my glycemic index/load down, so any aftertaste is something I am willing to live with, rather than forgo sweetness entirely. Bottom line is, if you want the taste of sugar, you'll need to buy sugar. If you have reasons for avoiding sugar, as I do, I think you will find this to be a very welcome replacement.
Incidentally, one packet is exceptionally sweet-- much sweeter than an equivalent-sized packet of Equal. (The product description says 1 packet is equal to 2-3 teaspoons of sugar, which seems accurate.) As a result I seem to have bought too much-- I'll need only half the volume of sweetener packs that I thought. This makes it a great bargain, but do remember to factor this in before you buy.
For me, now about 75 packs into a 2,000 pack box and 1,925 to go, the issue has been how to keep the extra packs away from humidity. I finally put them in some extra-large air-tight Mason-type home-canning jars. Hopefully this will do the trick.
[Edit to add: 1) I bought these in January 2010. Now, almost 2 full years later (late October 2011), they have stayed impressively un-clumped, and that is true for both the ones I kept in the large mason jars and some others I simply stuffed into a gallon-sized Ziploc bag and kept in the closet. Tokyo is extremely humid so I have to say they stood up extremely well. 2) I totally overbought for the volume I actually use, so I ended up giving a large amount to a local elderly care home. If you're tempted by the price-per-pack but aren't sure if you'll really use ALL of them, one option is to donate any leftovers to your local elderly care home/PTA/church/etc.]", "label": 1}

After reading the reviews I was expecting a lot of problems but there really were none. I'm giving 3 stars because I have only had the scale for 3 days. We all know electronics can work for the first week/month/year and then freak out.
Setting it up was much easier than the reviews lead me to believe. Before starting set up I changed my generic WiFi network names so they didn't have any dashes since reviewers said that was a problem. I set my 2.4 GHz network to b/g/n since Aria only works with b, which is so silly because b is ancient. I did the set-up over my iPad and there were 0 problems. It didn't stall, there was no need to reset anything or remove batteries, I proceeded from step to step until the scale was ready to go. The whole process took about 2-4 minutes.
I put the scale on the linoleum by my front door since I live in a tiny apartment that doesn't have hardwood or tile. I did a few trials and the weight/BF readings seemed both accurate and consistent. There was a little variance (+/- 2 lbs) when I moved the scale to the kitchen, so I decided to leave it by the door and not move it.
I've been trying to lose weight for 2-2.5 weeks and my weight was about 7 pounds less than my previous recorded weight in a medical facility. The real test of the scale is when I'll be weighed again this week. If I show a 5-7 lb weight loss there I will add stars. If I don't show that range of weight loss I will buy a piece of heavy tile to put the scale on to see if I can get a better reading.
I accidentally discovered a way to get my weight down by 20 lbs by repositioning my feet towards the outer edge of the scale. So I make sure to stand with my feet mostly together, toes near the dial, when weighing myself. From what I understand the Aria goes for accuracy above consistency (ie it's not programmed to show you your last recorded weight if your new weight is within a certain range) so it may be more sensitive to positioning.
Since I'm trying to see drops by 5-10-20 lbs, 1-2 lb variance is not that important to me. If it's important to you buy a physician's balance beam scale that uses counterweight. They are only $20-50 more than this scale here on Amazon. I didn't get one because I don't have room to keep it. Counterweight scales are usually found in gyms as well so if your weight seems wrong pop into your gym and weigh yourself to check. These are the scales people usually say are "heavy" which is a dysphemism for "more accurate than my electronic scale at home."
Of course half the fun is that it works with my Zip and the FitBit dashboard so I can use it to set goals and monitor my progress. I've had no problem with my data syncing. Adding multiple users takes a few minutes and you can do it from the app or the Dashboard.", "label": 1}

We were on the fence about whether to purchase the Withings or the Aria. After a bit or research, we decided on the Aria for 2 reasons: first, the Aria was $30 cheaper and secondly, many of the reviews comparing the 2 scales preferred the Aria. The scale is fantastic. It integrates very well with the fitbit web site (setting up an account is free), it looks good, and it is pretty accurate (with 10 weigh-ins on both the Aria and the scale that I was using at the gym, the Aria is consistently less than a \u00bd pound off of the gym scale). The scale also determines your percent body fat as well as your BMI (once you create an account on the website, you enter age, height, etc.). I can't speak to the accuracy of the body fat calculation because I have never had that calculated. It does fluctuate from time to time even though my weight may not (after doing a little research, I found that your percent body fat can change depending on how much water you have been drinking).
I want to address an issue that I saw brought up in a few consumer reviews (an issue that I was worried about initially because I found the reviews after I had ordered the scale). A few of the reviews that I read mentioned that the set up of the scale was difficult. One of the reviews was written by an \"IT guy\" and he mentioned that the software set up for the scale was not written correctly (not quite sure how he knew that!). Anyway, I am pretty computer illiterate and I found the setup to be about as simple as it could be. The only issue that I had (and I probably should not call it an issue) was the initial linking of the scale to my wireless network. I had the scale in the same room as my computer and router and it would not link. I assumed that would have been close enough! After 2 unsuccessful attempts, I look at the instructions again and saw that the scale needed to be placed on a flat surface next to router. I placed the scale on the table right next to the router and it synced the next attempt. Once we synced the scale, we moved it into the bathroom and have had no issues.
Setting up additional users is also a breeze by simply sending them an invite to the scale via their fitbit account email address. The information between multiple users can either be private or shared, depending on how that fitbit account is configured.

By the time the opening act is done everything sounds sort of muffled, almost has a digital feel to it.. By the time the final band is playing it's all just a mess of sounds and muffled everything. Once we leave the venue is when I can hear the truly bad tinnitus and the ride home consist of having to turn the radio up to double volume and even then I can barely hear the treble or anything but a ringing and the bass of the music. This tinnitus and muffled hearing will make sleeping that night nearly impossible and will stay with me for at LEAST 2 years.
Finally being tired of this and knowing one day my hearing may never come back, I read the reviews and gave these DownBeats a chance and I am blown away. Normally I can not stand stand earbuds that go into the ear so I was worried about earplugs in general. Surprisingly, I had no issues with these earplugs; they didn't feel unnatural and didn't annoy me when they were in. What really got me with these was how I kept feeling like I didn't have them in properly as I could still hear everything around me, converse normally with my wife between acts, and the music seemed as loud as it normally does but that's where they're magnificent. The ONLY way I knew these were in was when i spoke, I sounded much louder than I normally would to myself. I also loved how they're practically invisible unless you know to look for them. Another thing that steered me away from the standard "orange foam" earplugs was how dorky some people look with them in. I was much less self-conscious with these things in.
Many aspects of the concert still seemed rather loud to the point where I kept checking to make sure these were inserted properly and they always were. There were even parts of the concert that were still overwhelmingly loud. By the time the final act came on I could hear perfectly fine; no discernible ringing, no muffled sounds, and no "digitizing" of background noises. It wasn't until we left the venue, got in the car, and I removed the earplugs that I was truly amazed: I had minimal to no tinnitus. The radio was at the normal volume it always is and I almost couldn't believe I just went through a concert that felt as "loud as normal" with no perceivable side effects.
How these things manage to keep volume levels at perceptibly normal levels and yet still protect your hearing is truly a marvel. I chuckled when the instructions said "it's science!" but it's true; these things are nothing short of miraculous and I deeply thank whatever scientist(s) made it their life's work to create these things.I no longer have to worry about going deaf before I hit 35.", "label": 1}

I just think these earplugs work well enough for my situation, and considering that it's probably the cheapest option on Amazon, I would recommend it.
I work at a restaurant and use these every day to protect my hearing from clanking plates, metal pans and breaking glass.
Clarity of sound is not perfect, higher end gets muted or even nearly unnoticable. With these on, I can't hear my car's right/left blinker unless I really concentrate. But the high end muting has its advantages, like for example, the loudest thing at my workplace by far is a recycle bin full of ~20lbs glass, being emptied into a chest-height container. The glass breaking noise is all high end. So these earplugs are perfect for me!
If you're using this for playing music, a word to violinists, a lot of sound travels from the chinrest of the violin through your jaw, completely bypassing these earplugs. So if you're in an orchestra playing violin like I was, the sounds of your own playing will drown out every other sound, making playing in the ensemble more difficult. Literally an unsolvable problem though, not a problem with this product.
As for verbal communication, I'm hearing just about as well as everyone without earplugs. Loud environments aren't great for verbal communication in the first place, literally everyone is mishearing things just as you are.
After about a year of use, my earplugs turned a pretty gross yellow color, but they're still perfectly usable, and these earplugs are so unnoticable that no one notices until you point them out. I bought a second pair recently however, to be prepared for the day when I lose this first pair or if they somehow become unusable.
Speaking of losing these though, they might be easy to lose. if you casually screw the case too loose, the case slowly unscrews in your pocket and you've got a pair of earplugs in your pocket ready to fall out. Miraculously even after maybe 10 times of the screw becoming undone in my pocket over the course of a year, I have not lost this pair yet. So maybe this worry is unwarranted. It's not at all a problem with case build quality though, the case's build quality is excellent and the screw-on lid to the case has stayed strong even after a year.
What didn't last for me though, is the little keychain at the top that attaches to your keychain. Mine broke after about 3 months of use, after a violent incident of accidentally kneeing my key ring into my car. As seen in my picture, it's been long replaced with a spare key ring. It was a HELLISH time trying to put that key ring on, as the top of the carrying case's lid is very thick and not very suited for threaded inside a key ring.

I have been experiencing sacral/hip problems for about two years. I have worked with yoga, other stretching, consulted a chiropractor and other doctors, and bought an inversion table. All provided relief to some degree, but for some reason never could alleviate the problem, yet x-rays and examinations were not showing any significant problems (welcome to the msyteries of back/hip pain).
Within two days of using this simple device, I was able to isolate the cause of my back problem. I sat on the sacro wedgy for a day in my office chair and felt everything in my pelvis/hip relax, the pain disappeared. I was very happy...then I got in my car to go visit some clients and run some errands. It felt like someboy stuck a hot knife into my lower back and twisted it by the end of the day. Bingo! When I was in my 20's I had an old pickup truck that caused sciatica, which vanished within a week of my replacing that vehicle. However, this wasn't sciatica, and the link was immediately apparent and the car is only 2 years old...the pieces started to fall together.
It was my car seat that was causing my problem. My car is a small compact car, and I never noticed any overt discomfort from it, but I made some adjustments to it, and used the sacro wedgy until I started feeling relief. For the first time in two years, I am 95% pain free and improving.
My recommendation to people looking at this product is to read the instructions very carefully and really feel with your body where it should be placed. It takes a little experimentation to get it right, and I am sure it changes for each person in question. I have found it more effective to actually sit on it on my sofa, office chair, and elsewhere than the the lying down application, although that helps too.
Next, check all your regular seating against the results. If you are experiencing symptoms consistent with tight psoas and iliacus and/or sacral tenderness (do a search on these), then this thing will help you, but what I found most amazing is how quickly it helped me identify the culprit (car seat) and how subtle that problem was. Yet, it was able to put a severe kink in my life for quite some time.
I have a lot of experience with martial arts, body work, etc., and had tried several paths to relief, I am very aware of my body. So, you might want to speak with a good specialist who can help you with the use of this if you don't have a good sense for your own body. If you use it wrong, it will hurt and could make things worse. However, with proper use it could really help.
I don't think this device will help people too much with middle and upper spine issues, but I could be wrong, the back is a complex and wonderful thing. So, good luck, I hope this review helps people with the sacro wedgy and possibly opens up some ideas for people to find relief.", "label": 1}

Here's my comparison.
The DownBeats come in a robust aluminum case. They don't rattle inside (there's a plastic liner), and the base doesn't unscrew and fall off the lid. It does clank on my keys, so I wrapped it in tape. It's easy to get the plugs out of the case.
The Etys come in a rubbery plastic squeeze-case. Also fine on a keychain, but a little more bulky, lighter, and a lot less noisy. The rubbery case gets dirty and beat up over time. It can be difficult to get the plugs out.
The DownBeats are shorter -- only two flanges against the Etys three, and a stubby stem. That makes them smaller and less noticeable from the front -- the stem doesn't poke out from your ears. But the stems of the Etys are clear, while the DBs are white; from the side the Etys are less noticeable for that reason.
The shortness is an advantage under a helmet, hat, or laying against a pillow, but it slightly works against the DBs when inserting and removing. Only slightly, though.
Now, on to comfort and fit.
The flanges on the DBs are as fat as the large Etys. If you have small-to-medium ears, that might affect how well they fit.
To me, with mid-to-large ears, both the white (large) Etys and the DBs are noticeable in the ear -- there's a constant gentle feeling of pressure when inserted. It's not bothersome, but you do notice it when compared to the smaller Etys.
The Etys go deeper into the ear, and have a longer stem. That makes them less comfortable than the DBs. The comfort distinction is exaggerated if you're moving your ears or wearing something on your head -- the stem moves and applies pressure inside the ear canal.
By contrast, the smaller blue Etys are slightly more comfortable than the DBs, but only if you stay still and don't move your face!
Sound-wise: all three are good, and to most ears there won't be a difference in attenuation or sound quality. Fit is the most important factor to how these perform for you.
Comparing back-to-back with good over-the-ear headphones is too close to call regarding quality: it would be dishonest to make a judgment. The DBs seem to attenuate slightly more than the blue Etys, which makes sense -- the blue Etys are probably a tiny bit too small for my ears. The DBs seem to have a more even attenuation curve, blocking heavy basslines a little better than the Etys.
In conclusion: I'm carrying and wearing the DBs. I find them more comfortable, I prefer the way they sound, and I value the small improvement in attenuation.
If you have small ears, have trouble inserting or removing earplugs, or want a soft case, you might prefer the Etymotic ER20s. If you find deep earplugs uncomfortable, need a lower-profile appearance, or want a hard case, go for the DBs. If you're stuck between the two, the DownBeats are a good choice.", "label": 1}

The rate of change in the eyes of a developing child before the age of 15 is very dramatic. After 15 year of age, the eyes' rate of change slow down. That means a child subjecting his/her eyes to accommodation (i.e. reading at close range or proximity) will develop myopia faster at 6 years of age than at 15 years of age.
Within the 5 months time in which my son's eyes changed from 15/20 to 60/20, he had read approximately 250 books. His eye exam with an opthamologist showed that he had myopia with no other eye problems or issues. The opthamologist prescribed glasses for him to see things in the distance. I, however, did not want him to have glasses yet. I reasoned that if the eyes can change so drastically for the worse in such a short period of time, the eyes can also improve (as long as accommodation - changes in the eyes for close range work - had not yet become permanent.)
I began to change the way my son read and did close range work. Following any prolong close range work, my son would take 10 - 15 minutes breaks where he read small letters from across the room. I bought the Ott-Lite bookstand where my son would read books from 1.5 arm lengths away. I bought the Ott-Lite bookstand because it had an adjustable back which could be changed to accommodate my son's height. This was very useful since different chair and table heights often placed my son's vision at different angles (with respect to the book)which could then be easily corrected by tilting the bookstand backward or forward to varying degrees. The Ott-Lite also had built in lights which helped to illuminate the book he was reading in areas where lighting was poor. My son was also able to double the bookstand as a writing table at times. And I liked the fact that one can increase the width of the bookstand by pulling out the sides. To fit taller books, we just moved the light fixture back. It is true that sometiems the bottom lines of a book are blocked because the book sits deeply into the bookstand. However, my son easily solved the problem by placing two jenga blocks where the book sits in the bookstand to move the bottom page higher up for viewing. In addition, we like thattThe bookstand is made of strong plastic and does not feel flimsy. It can withstand the abuse and use by a 6 year old.
It has been about three months since my son has been diagnosed with myopia which requires glasses. We recently took him to see the same opthamologist for his follow-up eye exam. My son's vision is now at 40/20 in one eye and 30/20 in the other eye. The opthamologist said, \"At this point, I would not prescribed glasses for him. It seems his eyes have improved.\"
We plan on continuing our son with proper reading posture and using the Ott-Lite bookstand to obtain our goals.", "label": 1}

Since I also sport the Bruce Willis/Cpt Picard shaved head look, I have a ton of real-estate to cover and, since the \"hermit mountain man\" look doesn't fit well with my corporate job, I pretty much have to use an electric so I'm clean shaven without the pain and irritation of shaving with a razor everyday.
I've never used a Rotary shaver before this one so I can't compare it to anything else. However, since my facial hair grows so fast, I've always bought the top of the line foil shavers because I figured if they cost so much, they've got to last, travel well, and do a pretty decent job of cleaning up before a meeting. For me, price equalled quality.
So, I'm on the hunt for a new electric and I came across the DynaBliss 3D. I'd always wanted to try out a rotary but, with the money I'd spend on one of the high-end models, I was always hesitant because of the nagging,\"what if I hate it?\" However, for less than a quarter of what I'd spent on just one of the \"high-end\" foils, I figured who cares if I hate it. I'd just regift it if it was awful.
Well, I'd gone about three days without a shave when this arrived and I was literally itching (stupid stubble) to try this thing out. Then I remembered I'd need to charge it first and I was pleasantly surprised to find that it came FULLY charged!
The quality of this razor is immediately evident when you get it out of the package. For less than $40.00, I was expecting a cheap, light razor but it actually feels substantial and is amazingly ergonomic. As for the performance, quite frankly I was shocked! Definitely have to use a different circular motion to this versus a foil but it was easy to get used to because of the design. The rotary heads flex and pivot just as described and, even with my longer and super course stubble, I got a MUCH closer shave than I ever did with my overpriced foils; especially around my chin and neck.
Due to a couple of brain surgeries (brain cancer), I have a LARGE scar on the right side of my head that's always been hit or miss with electrics. The DynaBliss 3D handled my whole head and face (including that scar) like a champ! Seriously, I'm a true believer in rotary shavers now!
That whole shave took me down to about 90% power (it took a while to get used to the rotary motion versus a foil). I plugged it in (with a standard micro-USB cable: BRILLIANT!) and it took less than five minutes to get back to 100% charge. This thing is ridiculously well made with an amazing battery!
Long story short, I couldn't be happier and plan on getting another one just to keep in my travel bag for business trips!", "label": 1}

Even thought everything was nicely packaged. It came with three attachments and is battery operated. It also came with a brush to clean the attachments. It also came with a cord to charge. First I charged the trimmer for twenty four hours. The batteries were powerful enough though. I am not a professional groomer although I have groomed Doodles and Maltese multiple times. 74 The trimmers worked very nicely with our Maltese. And are great for that in between grooming appointments. I used the trimmers around my doodles faces and they worked well. Not as good as the professional clippers that we have. Doodles have more coarse hair then our Maltese. I am afraid to try to use the clippers to do a full shave because the last I want to do is burn out the clippers. Heavy duty clippers ( professional) should only be used for a full shave. I bought these with the intentions of cutting around their eyes, beards, and in between their toes. 176 The trimmers work perfect for these areas. Again, I am not a professional groomer, and I am not used to cutting or filing down our dogs nails. Luckily we have dogs who loved to be groomed and pampered, so our dogs will just sit on the couch with their paws on a towel in my lap while I filed their nails. Again the filing tool worked great for our little Maltese. As for the Doodles it seemed to take way longer and did not seem powerful enough. After filing my dog Thias nails for ten minutes on one paw, I really could not notice too much of a difference between the filed paw and not filed paw . I would personally recommend this product to anyone who has furry animals for maintaining their animals nails or for small trims. The attachments are extremely easy to take off and put on. The package it small enough that it is great for traveling or compact storage. The product is extremely easy to clean. 346 If you are afraid to file or trim your dogs nails because you are afraid of hurting them by filing the nails too short then the filing attachment will work perfectly for you. I personally would start to feel nauseous while trying to file or trim our doggies nails but with this attachment it is impossible to file the nails too short. 409 The little grips on the side of the tool make it safer to trim without your hands slipping and then you end up with a chunk of fur missing. I do feel that the batteries worked way stronger then the charged system. The trimmers also were not as loud as other clippers that we have and have used in the past. Our professional clippers are so loud that they scare our Maltese and we are not able to calm him down enough to even let the clippers get near him. The sound freaks him out so much. With these clippers the sound is so soft or low that he doesn\u2019t even stress out.", "label": 1}

Used Nutrakey's Innoflex for nearly 2 years prior to switching to this product, Flex Pro ES. This product works great and I'm extremely glad I switched to it.
Quick background:
-I'm 29 years old, about 192-194 lbs. at 6'1" and roughly 9-10 percent bodyfat. I've been weight training consistently since High School when I was playing football at 14 years old. I currently train 6 days per week, in the form two short workouts per day, overall focusing on losing some extra bodyfat (down to 6-8 percent bodyfat). My supplements are limited to a multi vitamin, whey protein, vitamin D and a greens powdered drink mix.
Positives:
-High value: Inexpensive and lasts 2 months when taken per instructions.
-Unique ingredients: Eggshell membrane ? Used joint and tendon boosting supplements for a decade and never heard of doing anything with egg shells other than throwing them in my compost pile. Others may consider the use of "unusual" ingredients a negative thing (see "Unique ingredients" below). I also like the exclusion of glucosamine and chondroiton. Heard some negatives to those ingredients and they're seemingly in every joint/tendon supplement.
-Effectiveness: ingredients work well together and they work fast.
-Ease-of-use: one medium sized pill once per day in the morning.
Negatives:
-Taste: in the perfect world, Flex Pro ES would be a delicious chewable. In comparison to my old joint/tendon supplement, Innoflex by Nutrakey, I didn't like that Innoflex was a drink mix I had to remember to pull out of the cupboard and pour with some water multiple times every day.
-Unique ingredients: listed "Unique ingredients" as a positive above but using unusual/unheard of ingredients in a supplement can be a risky downside.
Effectiveness explained:
-When I switched from Nutrakey's Innoflex to Flex Pro ES, I waited two weeks before officially switching. During the time "off" from using a joint/tendon supplement, my joints started to dry out again (right knee, right elbow). Within about 10 days of starting Flex Pro ES, I noticed a substantial change, mostly the complete cessation of the constant chronic achey knees. The occasional discomfort was still present through 3 weeks and by one month in, I no longer noticed any unusual joint or tendon pain. Those pains would only occur if training intensity was excessive (lifting heavy too often, adding too much high impact conditioning such as running, trying leg movements I don't commonly use such as the reverse lunge).
In summary, Flex Pro ES is a great product for anyone experiencing common achey joints. When I discovered Innoflex by Nutrakey years ago, I thought I found the Holy Grail for joint/tendon supplements and subsequently used it for over 2 years. That has been "one-upped" now by Flex Pro ES and I just ordered my second bottle and will continue to use it. Hopefully, though, the price will stay $26.77 as Flex Pro ES becomes more popular.", "label": 1}

Shipping: I receive my item super fast!! Within 4 dayss
Product: Overall, I received that was described. All safe and package well. Enough supplies for 80+ eyelash lifts!
Application: The same day I received it I tried it out instantly and I love the results!! My lash and naturally curly and healthy now.
Step 1: Make sure eyes are clean and dry. Prepare your tools even the ones that aren't included. Q-tips, warm water and any type of make-up remover.
Step 2: Use the Sticky Perm Rod or Silicone Pad S,M,L. I used the Large Silicone Pad, then applied glue to the smooth side to stick to my eyelid, make sure it's as close to your lash line as possible. The glue can get a bit tricky but just be patient, once the Silicone Pad is secure apply glue on to the other side and begin the lifting motions in section with either the long white tool or the little black brush. Brush, apply more glue, repeat that till your lash are fully glued to the Pad and notice the glue is starting to build up. Then begin to separate clumped sections with the white tool.
Step 3: After you secure all your lashes on the Pad or Rod take Formula A. Apply evenly with the green felt tool and let it sit for 12-10 minutes. Make sure you have the under eye Cotton Pad applied while using the Formulas because they do sting a bit.
Step 4: Once the time is up take the warm water and Q-Tips and begin removing slowly Formula A, in upward motions starting from the roots to the tip of your lashes. Just make sure you don't complete remove the glue though.
Step 5: Now apply Formula B evenly with a new green felt tool and let it sit for 10 minutes. And repeat the product removal step once the time is up. After every Formula removal make sure you just have glue remaining, no extra product, you don't want to mix them.
Step 6: Formula C! It's has a consistency of an oil so you can apply it with the black brush, apply small doses because it does help separate and move lashes a little easier. Let this sit for 5 minutes and repeat the removal process.
Step 7: Just like Formula C, Formula D has the same oil base consistency, apply this one for 5 minutes.
Step 8: OPTIONAL: apply Growth Mascara for 5 minutes.
Step 9: It's time for cleaning up finally. Water will not change lashes so you'll be fine. I lifted my Silicone Pad and slowing became cleaning my eye with warm water and Coconut Oil, I use that as a make up remover. It will lift the glue instantly and nourish your lashes. I did my first eye with a benefit make up remover and it took longer to remove, the Coconut Oil was most effective!
After you have one eye down repeat these steps!

1. decide if you'd rather use the white rods or pink gel things. The rods seemed a bit too little for longer eyelashes and I went with the reusable pink gel pad thing. There's also packets of lower eyelash protective pads-not a must, just your preference. You'll need the eyelash glue (white bottle, blue lid), the white bent tool, and a LOT of patience for the first part
2. Line the pink gel thing on the bottom, about 1cm wide, with eyelash glue. Wait about 30 seconds for it to get a tad bit tacky and then place it as close as possible to the eyelid/eyelash hairline and hold for 40 seconds. Do both eyes to save time. The less you blink, the better it will stay.
3. Ok, this is tedious, but, the most important part. Use small amounts of the eyelash glue on the pink gel where it's riveted. Use the white bent tool to slowly plaster each hair into a slot. The smaller amount of glue the better, but be sure the hair is firmly on the pink gel thing. Note: if you get impatient and plaster a bunch of eyelashes crooked and not straight, you'll get that as your final look, take your time and do 1-2 hairs at a time if you can. You will also need to wait till the glue is a bit tacky to work. So tiny dab of glue, let it get tacky, and slowly plaster up. You'll want to press and pull the hairs to toward the brow line.
4. Ok, so you've been plastering for what seems an eternity. Now, get bottle A and a green wired q-tip thing and generously cake a layer onto the eyelashes. This stuff is mildly irritating in your eyes so be mindful close to where the eye lid meets the lashes. Now, wait, as long as you possibly can. I waited 30 minutes on one eye and 10 on the other...the 30 minutes is where it's at. Then, wipe off gently with a paper towel or something with not a lot of lint.
5. Repeat with B and a new q-tip. I left this on for about 10-20 min. Then wipe off.
6. Bottle C starts to take the eyelash glue off. Go slow and try to work off as much glue as you can. Then use the q-tip to slowly slide under the pink gel that's touching your eyelid. Slow and steady so you don't pull any eyelashes off. Lots of re-dipping the q-tip.
7. Bottle D is like a conditioner, so you can hold the pink gel there to paint it on.
8. I'd treat it like a hair perm and not get it wet for the night if you can stand the extra eyelash glue feeling. Then a hot shower to get that annoying crap off.
9. And viola, you have gorgeous eyelashes all.the.time. I looked up how much it costs to get it done at a salon, and it's about $150! Should last 4-6 weeks. If you mess up, and make one side different, you can fix it by redoing the process.", "label": 1}

I was stride fit on a treadmill for Asics shoes for slight pronation at a reputable running store. I easily jogged 1 mile in my new shoes to break them in. Instead, I was limping the next morning. Then every pair of shoes hurt. It didn't get better after 3 months. The first few steps in the morning were especially excruciating, and I have a very high pain tolerance. I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis. I did everything I was told. 600 mg ibuprofen, stretches, yoga, physical therapy. It helped somewhat. Nikes helped some more, but I still had to tie ice packs to my feet literally all night if I was on my feet for several hours just to be lucky to limp the next day. I have kids... I needed to keep up! This is the FIRST thing that helps. I tested the insoles out with normal errands on the first day. All good. I did 50 minutes inclined walk on the treadmill the next day. I finished feeling well and cried happy tears at the gym in front of everyone. Exercise has always been part of my life but it's tough when even standing hurts. I admit my feet were sore the next morning after the treadmill but the soreness went away as the day passed. So I did 100 floors on the stair climber. I had no pain that evening or the next morning. The next day was 100 floors on the stair climber and a half mile slow jog. Again, no pain. I cooked a big meal today for about an hour standing on the hard kitchen floor without slippers. I am normally limping by the end of cooking or washing dishes but I had no pain. Crazy, but I think these are actually FIXING my injury. I read a review saying it seems to be healing. It really seems to be! I've tried 3 kinds of Dr. Scholl's insoles, countless reputable shoes, ice, therapy. Nothing has helped except these.
I'm on here to order 4 more pairs to cut for my favorite shoes. I'm a shoe size 6 to 6.5. Due to the underneath pads on the front, they probably can't be cut smaller than a shoe size 4 or 5. I took the shoes' original insoles out and replaced it with these insoles. Too bad they are too thick and obvious for high heels, but you'll appreciate the provided cradling. I am grateful for something that works AND seems to be healing me after 8 months of sharp, stabbing, constant pain in my heels with every step.

The inside of the case has a lining that I believe is specifically for "hot tools" but I am not sure and unfortunately, the product brochure didn't elaborate as to if this is the case.

Compared to my well known brand / high end flat irons, this one is light weight, which is a big bonus. I found it much easier to maneuver. With that being said, it is smaller than my flat iron in regards to overall size. This iron is suitable for traveling, for it is small, light weight & comes with it's own bag which has room for additional supplies/accessories. Perhaps it's due to my personality, but I am bothered by little things such as typos. Therefore I was slightly disappointed as to the instructions provided for they had several grammatical issues such as missing words. I know this can be looked at as a very minor and perhaps an insignificant detail, but something that I wanted to mention since it is an overall impression of the company. Perhaps this was overlooked due to their exceptional detail and desire to focus their energy on the presentation of this flat iron, for they did a fantastic job. I gave the iron 4 stars, for I really do like it and will use it for travel. It is missing a few features that I like, such as auto shut off, notification when the iron is at ideal temperature and I wish it were just a tad bigger, but all in all it is a great iron for a fantastic price!

Accuracy was non-existent, UX sucks, and support was poor. If you want quality you'll probably need to wait a couple years for Fitbit to get its act together. Sadly it took several hours to discover my Aria was a lemon ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemon_law ), and we had to discover this fact the hard way since Fitbit's support is slow and 20th-century. More on what went wrong:
* Body Fat feature is purely a toy: The scale's body fat measurement suddenly dropped from 30% to 15% without me changing anything on the scale or in the app. Moreover, day-to-day measurements appeared *inconsistent* with my food intake-- my body fat has trended /down/ over a week of eating /more/ fatty foods (and carefully maintaining constant water intake). And what the hell is Normal vs Lean mode? Is clicking Lean supposed to make me feel better about myself?
* The scale's measured weight was more than 5% inconsistent between weighings (even after 5 weighings). After drinking a bunch of water, a Shaper Image scale confirmed I gained 2-3 pounds and yet Aria registered no change.
* The wifi setup is A MAJOR PAIN, especially when the device FAILS TO CONNECT to your wifi. I lost over an hour trying to get this thing to connect to my standard 802.11 WEP-protected network. Laptops, phones, iPads, and lots of other devices have no trouble connecting. There are SO MANY THINGS wrong with Aria's UX, from requiring you to enter your Fitbit login and scale name on EACH SETUP ATTEMPT, to using (on mobile) an out-of-app web flow, to the web app not reporting the same errors as the scale itself. Fitbit's Product Managers need to take a hard look at how Chromecast does buttonless wifi setup, which is orders of magnitude easier and ACTUALLY WORKS. They could also spend a couple dollars to put a Bluetooth chip in the scale for not just setup but sync.
* Fitbit wouldn't issue me a straight-up refund. In comparison, Amazon gave me a refund for an unopened Fitbit charge that I returned to them *without a receipt*. Furthermore, Hoka One One (a new shoe company) gave me a FULL REFUND for a WORN pair of shoes that failed while I was running.
* While I guess I should be happy Fitbit even answers email, their email support isn't much more than somebody walking you through a bunch of troubleshooting wizard questions. I asked to actually converse with an expert several times and was denied. While the people answering emails appear to be doing their job well, the managers who set up this whole process have done a pretty sloppy job and let down their own staff.
Unless you're a gadget freak and really want a toy regardless of its reliability, get yourself one of the other scales on Amazon for a fraction of the price.", "label": 0}

Here is my problem with it. The second or third day of having it, the lcd screen became too dark to read until I push a button that changes what is being displayed upon the release of the button. I kind of know my way around it, so it is still useable. I think this may have been caused by me rolling on it in my sleep, or maybe something snagged while I put it in the dream mask.
Now another problem I have with it is that the circuit board has no protective case. This could be the cause of how the lcd screen now looks the way it does. But it could possibly be a low battery life. Either way, that circuit board is just exposed, and it needs to be taken in and out of the mask. The mask can catch one of the components attatched to the board. I may not be gentle with it in my sleep, I have broken things in my sleep in the past. $209 is a lot to spend on something to wear in my sleep.
In an effort to make sure I do not remove the mask in my sleep, I tied my hands to my pants. When I woke up, the mask was off and my hands were free. Of coarse, I knew how to free my hands since I am the one that tied them, I just figured I would have to wake up to do something that required some mental work.
The strap also hurts between the top of my ears and my skull. I figure I will naturally get used to that though.
Any way, the device itself works great. I would give it 5 stars if it had even a cheap plastic or metal case to help keep from damaging it during sleep and while pulling it in and out of the mask to adjust settings/change batteries. I understand that the price is high because the demand for lucid dream devices is not for a very large market, and this brand seems to be the most reliable because of the eye tracking sensor.
Don't let the negative feedback I gave stop you from getting it. It still looks like the best available as far as I have been able to find. But if you move around in your sleep, or want to be sure not to damage it from pulling it in/out of the mask, you should look into making a small case for it either out of cardboard, or 3d print one, or find someone that will 3d prind one for you, or maybe even hot glue some popsicle sticks together and drill some holes in for the buttons and screen, along with lining the inside with that same type of fabric as the insert of the mask to keep the wood from scratching the device.
It is a great device for what it is. 4 stars because I have to craft a protective case for it, and because the lcd screen MAY be messed up.", "label": 1}

In my pocketbook! Try packing up your beaker, hot plate, 17 batteries and what surely looks like a bomb apparatus to go help your best friend. You're about to know TSA really well. I'm so very happy with this purchase, seller and the product.
Update: I have been just as happy with my unit. I just wanted to clarify a few things. First, make no mistake, this unit is quite powerful and will make a high ppm. I suspect both reviews talking about dark color didn't follow directions for 10 ppm. That's on them. As to the review talking about Home Depot, the super expensive unit he claims to have gone and bought has alligator clips with rubber guards on them?? The ionexx does look possibly hand made and, last time I checked, that was a good thing. It doesn't leak, it has an overfill port. Now, I watched the video for the other unit and I'm sure it's fine, but this is my point: If at 9 p.m., when you realize you or your child has a scratchy throat, you want to head out to the garage\\shop like the guy in the video and fire up your half gallon beaker and, according to their own reviews, wait a few hours, then fish out the little magnetic piece (I don't know how, it's on the bottom of the beaker) and bring your beaker to your stove and then heat it and then wait for it to cool, you go girl! But if you want to pour some water and plug in something smaller than a Bluetooth speaker, having it right on your night table and take care of your child for 15 minutes, at which time you have your fresh silver... Well, you get my point. Lastly, every time we pull out the jar, we hold it up to light and it has the most beautiful quality. Almost a luminescence from the tiny bubbles of dispersment. It's very pleasing.", "label": 1}

This is high quality real deal sea moss, straight from the ocean. This is my first time purchasing/trying sea moss and can tell how good it is already, based on what I've learned through others. I received my product in a nice resealable package that burst with the essence of the ocean when I opened it. I rinsed it in the sink and then proceeded to soak it in purified water with a squeezed lemon (didn't have any lime around). The next day, I checked on it and it certainly grew in size. I was at first discouraged by what one guide to making the gel said: that the moss should be soft and gelatin-like and break apart in your hand. Mine was still pretty sturdy, but was certainly soft to the touch, like you'd expect a soaked vegetable to feel. I proceeded to push forward regardless as I realized beforehand that there is some level of almost \"elitism\" it feels like, in terms of what sea moss should and shouldn't be. I threw it in the blender and poured in the water I had it soaking in til I felt it was at a similar level to the guide I was following and got ta' blendin'. After a couple minutes, I turned it off and checked it out. The consistency was all wrong, like water but with a bunch of ramen noodles floating around. So I kept on blending and it thickened up to a grainy texture relatively quickly. I noticed it was only blending the bottom portion of the moss, the top half was sitting there like a still lake and all the reviews questioning the quality of the product started to flash before my eyes as I started to agree with them. But then I put on my thinking cap and added more water, shook it up a bit to get the water down there, and started the blender again. It all started flowing like a whirlpool once again and after a minute or so, I saw that creamy yellow consistency I was looking for. I added a tad more water and blended further after that to try and get rid of the tiny bits of grain left in my otherwise perfectly smooth gel, which I was successful at. Now I'm left with some beautifully smooth and nutritious sea moss gel. When they say a little goes a long way, they weren't kidding. I took maybe an ounce or so of my 8 ounce bag and it made 3 cups of sea moss gel. This makes me much more comfortable shelling out more money for multicolored/strained sea moss so I can explore how those benefit me in contrast to this classic golden moss.
I wrote this review because so many other reviews made me doubt my purchase and question whether I made the right choice, but in the end I was left extremely happy with my purchase. Ignore the reviews that question the authenticity and/or quality of this product. \"It looks like noodles\" it's supposed to. No two plants grow exactly alike. There are many many different strains of sea moss. \"It's grainy, this is plastic!\" Try adding more water and blending more and watch how quickly that \"plastic\" melts away. Any further doubts, you should direct yourself to their YouTube channel and you can see the source itself. This is a great company with great product at a great price. Nothing but greatness here.", "label": 1}

I used this both morning and evening right after cleansing. I just squirted some onto a cotton round for the face, neck, and also behind my ears. Doing this treatment twice a day, I believe, helped keep the psoriasis from getting out of control. It\u2019s didn\u2019t get rid of it, but did lessen the thickening.
Have I ever told you how much I love trying new beauty products? In July I was fortunate enough to be sent the Pure Mauve Line of Products Made in Canada by Carapex Inc. of Chambly, Quebec to test out for 30 days and give my opinion. One of the reasons they thought I could benefit from this specific range is because I have written previously about the scalp psoriasis I\u2019ve had for the past 18 months. The Tea Tree Oil is thought to help clear up the plaque that grows quickly over the scalp and sometimes other areas. This plaque appears very dry and can flake, crack, and if scratched can bleed and be very sore. Here\u2019s a quote from the Carapex website about the Pure Mauve line \u201cDue to our passion in the benefits of Tea Tree Oil, we developed this line of clean, natural, invigorating products. Only the purest, highest quality of Australian Tea Tree Oil has been utilized to work wonders on skin inflammation, breakouts and other conditions.\u201d
So I don\u2019t have to type it out every time, each Pure Mauve product I was sent has the name \u201cInvigorating\u201d and \u201cwith Tea Tree Oil\u201d. I like the dark purple bottles because they\u2019re different from anything else I have in the bathroom so stand out. I wear contacts so can barely see without them or my glasses and each bottle cap (except the Body Lotion) has a large silver letter on it so you know what it is you\u2019re grabbing for. \u201cS\u201d for Shampoo, \u201cC\u201d for Conditioner, \u201cT\u201d for Toner, \u201cM\u201d for Moisturizer and \u201cC\u201d again for Cleanser. The Hair products are double the size of the facial ones, so you wouldn\u2019t ever mix up the two \u201cC\u201ds.
I\u2019ve been using everything exclusively for 30 days now and have 2/3 left still of the Lotion, Shampoo and Conditioner and 1/2 of the facial toner, cleanser, and moisturizer. I estimate the face items would last 2 months, the hair products for 3, and the body lotion would depend on whether you use it all over or just in certain areas. If you do not enjoy the smell of Tea Tree Oil, then these products are NOT for you. I joke that I smell like a health food store when I\u2019m done my routine! Luckily the smell doesn\u2019t last all day and you can still wear body mists or perfumes without the fragrance changing.

{"sid": 3574, "id": 425492, "interval": [600, 700], "len_words": 524, "len_tokens": 648, "text": "I've had my Aria now for about 3 months and have very mixed feelings about it. It looks really nice in my bathroom, it's easy to use (step on, step off) and from a weighing point of view, it's great. None of those reasons were why I bought it however. I got it to integrate to my Fitbit account, and save me from manually entering my weight into the website. On that point, the scale falls well below expectations due to what appears to be a very poorly designed and implemented wireless radio.
First up, I should say I'm in IT, so know a lot about wireless networks (often the bane of an IT persons existence). I have about 20 wireless devices in my house currently, all of which quite happily talk to my wireless router regardless of device size or physical location.
The Aria however is a different matter. Firstly the wireless range of the scale is dire. It sits no more than 30 ft from my router with an almost clear line of site, yet consistently fails to get a signal. This despite the fact I can quite happily get a signal from other devices even when outside in my garden.
Secondly, setting up an configuring it with anything other than the minimal security policy causes it to refuse to connect to the network. It doesn't like hidden SSID's, WPA2 encryption, MAC address locking, or any protocol above wireless B.
Unfortunately, given that the sole purpose of the scale is to communicate via wireless to the internet, these are pretty severe issues. The Fitbit help is contradictory, with some sections saying the Aria will work with certain settings, whilst others say it won't. Even the support people aren't sure, expressing surprise when I pointed them to the Fitbit tech specs which contradicted their advice.
In the end, I did get the Aria to work, but now sits 10 ft from the wireless router in a second bathroom, and I've had to buy another router just for the scale to work (so I can keep all my other wireless devices secure). Not an ideal solution by any means.
One other issue I've noticed is that the scale has no way of determining who is who (no \"tap once for person A, twice for person B\" setting). In other words if you've more than one person of similar weight, the scale has no idea who it's measuring and can potentially upload the wrong info. Your only recourse is to then manually correct the entry on the Fitbit website, which kind of negates the reason for using it in the first place.
Pro's
Looks great
Accurate weighing mechanism
BMI measurement is reasonable (close enough for home use)
Easy to use
Con's
Struggles to differentiate between people of similar weights
Wireless reception is woeful
Conclusion
If you want is a fancy looking set of scales, that are easy to use, and don't want to upload the data then the Aria is fine. If you've more than one person in the house of a similar size, want to use the Fitbit integration, or have anything other than a perfect environment for wireless you may find you're out of luck.", "label": 0}

I also consider myself a \u201cbiohacker\u201cand I am always looking for a natural but highly effective ways of leveraging my body into delivering greater healing potential or cellular optimization. For a number years red and near infrared light therapy has caught my attention, I have tried several light therapy devices/products but by far Dr. Turchin\u2019s Lightdoctor has exceeded them all especially for targeted treatment- delivering an application that is highly effective but requires very little time to administer. I received my unit last Friday and probably was in 4-5/10 level of pain/discomfort in my lower back I unpackaged The Lightdoctor, read the instructions and treated my go back with approximately 4 spot applications lasting 1 minute each. In about 5-10 minutes literally all my pain was gone. I have also used it and several other body parts with similar success.
I consider myself quite well informed regarding red and near infrared light therapy, but I wanted a deeper understanding regarding protocols for acute/chronic pain/ injury and also was planning on procuring a device for the pediatric rehabilitation clinic which is a satellite specialty center for a major city Children\u2019s Hospital. I contacted Dr. Turchin and he graciously gave me insight, strategies and applications for my own personal use and use in the pediatric setting. Regarding the device itself I appreciate that the Lightdoctor comes in a durable handy case, easy to use, and comes with a Published book by Dr. Turchin outlining nearly every injury/ailment -detailing the protocol for use of the Lightdoctor. In comparison to other devices that I have used -based on the listed specifications it is much more highly powered and concentrated, devices I have previously used with power densities of 20-100mw/cm2 compared to the Lightdoctor\u2019s 365 mw/cm2-one can feel it\u2019s intensity and power (in a pleasant way) when it\u2019s being applied or administered. Treatment last between 30 seconds in 1 minute per area. The area it treats is quite generous for being a more local targeted treatment device. I like the fact that I could use it on my low back -my largest problematic area, but it is equally effective on any other body parts that has been stressed, injured, spastic or restricted. This is an outstanding Therapeutic device to have for personal use and in the clinical setting. It naturally facilitates the bodies primary healing mechanism by targeted stimulation of mitochondrial activity (the foundation of cellular function and growth) avoiding the use of symptom-masking pharmaceuticals like over-the-counter pain reliever\u2019s, anti-inflammatories and analgesics. I myself and my staff are excited for our pediatric patient population as they stand to benefit from shortened healing times, faster recovery and effective pain relief. There are very few units on the market that deliver what the Lightdoctor does. You would have to pay a considerable fortune to obtain them, I am grateful that Dr. Turchin Has made his quality product affordable and obtainable to many. I look forward to it\u2019s continued use in my personal life also as our staff begins to incorporate this in the treatment of various pediatric injuries/diagnoses.", "label": 1}

This lotion receives 5 stars despite it arriving with the box being opened and a lose lid which resulted it the product oozing everywhere and getting messy. Now for the price on Amazon, this product works wonderful. I have ordered this lotion as well as other lotions I have yet to try from the same brand and I will be writing a review on them as soon as I try them although I am sure they work just as wonderful as this lotion did. First of all, I always read all the reviews on products before I decide to purchase them to make sure it is something that I will like and also to share my experience with others if and how well it worked for me. The price was beyond cheap! At the salon, they wanted almost $40 at one place I looked at and of course, I came home and looked on Amazon and bam. Found it under 10 bucks at the time. Open receiving the lotion, I have only used it once. Now normally I enjoy trying a ton of lotions and never stick to one very long so I can switch between my favorites and I am adding this lotion to that list. Not only was the smell very delightful but the texture was very creamy and blended in well. This lotion does not contain tingle factors in it but leaves a rich, golden brown colr. This lotion contains several dark bronzers and as long as you rub it in well, there will be no streaks. Make sure you wipe your hands well so you can avoid discolored hands. Like I was saying, I used this lotion for the first time today and had no problem rubbing it in as it blended very well while leaving my skin very well moisturized which I was surprised. It was like giving my skin a drink of water so to speak. I applied it right before I got into the hottest superbed my tanning salon had, set it for 20 minutes, laid back and relaxed. I was very surprised when the timer went off. I am already dark but immediately after tanning I was a couple shades darker, no after tan smell which I loved, and my skin felt very silfy and smooth for several hours afterwards. I did not burn but this lotion literally BROWNED me 3 shades darker! Highly recommend this lotion and I will be buying more of this to have on hand. I was shocked at the quality of this lotion for such a cheap price. I decided if the lotion did not work then I could always give it to a friend and I wouldn't be out of much money. Boy was I wrong! This product works BETTER in my opinion than most overly priced lotions at the salons. It smells great, works, leave your skin moisturized, pleasantly scented before and after tanning, and definatley darker. I can cut down on my trips to the salon with this product AND save myself a butt ton of money! I would also recommend this lotion for beginners as well as advanced tanners who even want to break their tanning plateau. I have been talking about this wonder lotion all day!! You WILL NOT be disappointed in any way with this lotion so PLEASE give it a try and see what it can do for you!", "label": 1}

They do not contain drying alcohols nor is it astringent. They are for helping to increase hydration, skin plumpness, gentle toning, and to prepare skin for the next steps. I tend to apply multiple layers (ala \"7 skin\" method) adding some to the palm of my hands then patting it on. I do this a few times with several seconds in between. I know when my skin is hydrated enough once the product doesn't seem to soak in any more. Then I follow up with usually a serum and moisturizer (or SPF if using during day).
My skin enjoys a whole host of different toners I have used over the years. Most are good enough, some are pretty great, and I was pleasantly surprised that this toner is rather fantastic for my dry, semi sensitive skin. I could tell with first use. I don't often comment on price because our budgets all vary, but I am commenting on this for being a good size, with great ingredients, effective results, and at a reasonable price ($20 is a good price point for this). Even with multiple \"layers\", it will last quite some time.
My skin really did fall in love with it the first time I used it. I had just finished using a skin care line I ultimately wasn't crazy with. I had been skipping my usual dose of hydrating toner, and I felt that my skin was sorely missing the gentle hydration from skipping that as well as exacerbated dryness from a not too moisturizing skin care line. So now I am trying to return to my usual preferred products when this became available. Like I said, I haven't met any toners I didn't like. However, this one I have quickly- like first use- come to love. My skin is like, \"ahhhhhh hydration\". It feels so good that it doesn't seem like it would need a moisturizer on top-- but please do so you help lock in the hydration.
I like it so much, that it absolutely will be repurchased when the time comes. I have a lot of skin care, and every once in awhile I think about what I would want to keep if I could only keep a few items. This is one of them, and I have loved other hydrating toners. I think I am sold on not only the way my skin feels but the medical grade ingredients. Functional skin care.
My skin: mid 40s, leans dry, otherwise clear save for some redness & visible veins from Rosacea.

I started taking a Potassium and Magnesium product and saw some results. Then I read The Magnesium Miracle by Dr. Carolyn Dean and stated taking this liquid magnesium. I noticed good results with magnesium and now my blood pressure went down to 110/60. So my nurse practitioner has halved my blood pressure medication and I have an appointment in a month to check it again.
If you do take this liquid magnesium and have high blood pressure make sure you are working with your doctor or nurse because your medication may need to be adjusted. They also did an EKG on me and said my heart was normal and I told them: \"Well I'm taking magnesium.\" They also did blood tests and said they were normal. I'm not sure my nurse actually realized that the magnesium had lowered my blood pressure. Here are some of my experiences day by day at the start:
Day 1: I took 1/4 teaspoon in 16.9 fluid ounces water. It made me feel relaxed and I slept well.
Day 2: I got ambitious and took 1/2 teaspoon in a large container of iced tea and it only tasted a bit salty.
Sipped over a couple of hours and it seemed to relax me and take the edge off my anxiety. I thought it was giving me a lot of energy and made my heart beats really strong.
Day 3: Backed off a bit and took 1/4 teaspoon in a small amount of cranberry juice. Tasted salty and a bit bitter so didn't want to do that again. Decided it needed more liquid to make it palatable.
Day 4: Took 1/4 teaspoon in a pint (2 cups) of coconut water. My anxious thoughts stopped and my mind felt calm and almost as if my thoughts were not as loud.
Day 5: Took 1/4 teaspoon in 2 cups bottled water. Felt as if my system was detoxing and cleaning out.
Day 6: Felt like toxins were being released so drank more water.
Day 7: Decided to try taking the magnesium liquid in capsules. That way you can't taste and salty or bitter flavor.
Day 8: While waiting to get capsules, took 1/2 teaspoon magnesium liquid in iced tea.
Day 9: Put 1/4 teaspoon magnesium in 3 veggie capsules. Swallowed them down with no issues.
Since then I've been taking 1/2 teaspoon magnesium liquid in five veggie capsules. I fill them up with a syringe and take them right away, not letting them sit around to dissolve. It is a little extra effort but it keeps my atrial flutter under control and I feel better in general. You may want to wipe the capsules off a bit after filling. I just use a napkin. That way you don't taste any of the liquid. That is my best solution and how I'm going to continue to take this magnesium.
My cautions are to start slow with drops or 1/4 teaspoon and work up slowly to 1/2 teaspoon a day. Also read The Magnesium Miracle to understand all the reasons to take this product and how to take it. I would not recommend taking it straight, always dilute it in at least 2 or more cups of water to make it palatable. I will say this magnesium does NOT have laxative effects like other magnesium products do. That is a good thing if you want to leave the house!
So my experience has been positive. Please consult with your doctor before taking any supplements as your medications may need to be adjusted.

It is manufactured in a certified Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) facility and is laboratory tested and approved for guaranteed potency and purity.
This supplement indicates that it contains both vitamin E as alpha tocopherol and CoQ10 AKA ubidecarenone AKA ubiquinone. CoQ10 is a biologically active compound similar in its chemical structure to vitamins K and E. Research has indicated that CoQ10 and vitamin E work synergistically as powerful antioxidants, exponentially multiplying the positive benefits of each. (See reference below.)
This supplement also includes lecithin, which additionally helps improve the bioavailability of CoQ10. (See reference below.)
CoQ10 is particularly well known for its function within cells in the mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate (ATP) cascade, a crucial aspect of energy production within the body. Because cellular functions are dependent on an adequate supply of ATP, CoQ10 is crucial to the maintenance of health in virtually all tissues and organs in the human body. (See reference below.)
CoQ10 is of particular benefit for cardiovascular health, especially for heart patients who have been prescribed statins, which have long been known to dangerously decrease levels of CoQ10 in the body. Symptoms of low levels of CoQ10 due to statins can include: muscle weakness and fatigue, high blood pressure, and mental fog. In the extreme, symptoms can include chest pain, heart failure, and seizures.
CoQ10 has also been found helpful in the treatment of chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia, no doubt because of its raising of ATP levels in the body, as described above.
Research has found that selenium makes an important contribution to the body's processing of CoQ10 in that it is required in order for the body to fully utilize CoQ10. (See reference below.) However, selenium is not included in this supplement. Therefore, it is a good idea for anyone hoping to maximize absorption of a CoQ10 supplement such as this one to add a selenium supplement to their nutraceutical regimen.
Because it is fat-soluble, it is recommended to ingest CoQ10 with a meal that contains fat and to take it at a dose of 30-200 mg per day. The dosage of this supplement is 100 mg per each softgel. That is a pretty standard dosage for persons such as myself who take it to promote good health and not for a specific health condition.

I have a CPAP machine with nose cushion mask and I used the pillows to hold that in place while blocking the light overnight. But that surgery meant I couldn\u2019t use the pillows - I had to sleep on my back and propped a bit for two months. So I got a night mask and have slept all the better ever since. When my wife saw the difference in me she started to sleep with a mask as well - the darker night has made sleep deeper and more recuperative.
We each have a mask we love (the same, gotten on Amazon), but we wanted a back up for her so she could wash that one from time to time. I saw this Luxury Silk Sleep Mask - Tara Sartoria Artisan Handmade and decided to give it a try. I\u2019ll admit - she thought I was off base with the wrap around design - it would not fit or it would be too hot or... but she gave it a try. She loves it!
1. This Luxury Silk Sleep Mask - Tara Sartoria Artisan Handmade wraps around the full head. I have a larger head, wearing a LG/XL baseball hat. She does not - hers is much smaller. This Luxury Silk Sleep Mask - Tara Sartoria Artisan Handmade fits both of our heads comfortably.
2. I have not slept in this Luxury Silk Sleep Mask - Tara Sartoria Artisan Handmade, but I did try it on with my CPAP nose cushion mask - it does not sit right. I can get it closed and all the way around my head, but I use it (and the purpose is) so as to block out all light. With the CPAP on there is a large gap at the base of the mask where it goes over the nose piece. Unlike other masks I have, I cannot recommend this Luxury Silk Sleep Mask - Tara Sartoria Artisan Handmade for someone with this type of CPAP.
3. The materials are excellent! This is a soft and \u201cluxurious\u201d wrap that feels cool and soft, making for a very comfortable experience. My wife did end up taking it off about halfway through the night, feeling it heated her head too much. To be fair, she has the same issue with pillows, but not with masks that have only the eyes covered with a strap around. I had it on only for a brief time, I felt I could go longer than my wife, but again, needing the CPAP I am unable to use it.
4. What we both like is that there is a softening of sound with it on. We use a sound machine to keep nighttime sounds drowned out, but this adds to that - my wife really felt it helped her sleep a little more blocking out additional sound.
5. The velcro is easy on/off and it is well attached to the wrap, keeping one from worrying it\u2019ll detach - it\u2019s secure.
6. Looks nice. For the ladies, this has a nice, feminine look - my wife says so.
As of this writing, my wife loves it - as do I, though it doesn\u2019t allow me to use it - and will use it often. She does take it off it gets hot - but that\u2019s something that she feels is a personal thing. In the end, she\u2019s happy to have it and happy to recommend this Luxury Silk Sleep Mask - Tara Sartoria Artisan Handmade mask.", "label": 1}

So I ordered one of those giant long big blue foam rollers that they have in gyms. It was cumbersome, but it was effective. I didn't realize how tight my muscles were until I rolled on these rollers and let the weight of my body press against the roller. It was so good but so painful. And as much as I liked using it, I hated storing it. I was living in a loft at the time and that thing was really unsightly.
Then I saw this 3 in 1 roller and was really excited to try it. The 3 in 1 roller has basically 3 rollers that stack neatly inside one another. There\u2019s the outer roller (most similar to what I had before), a gear shaped roller for more targeted pressure points, and a rolling massage stick. It\u2019s shorter but I\u2019m still able to fit both legs on the roller. It also cost the same as my giant long blue tube roller. I like that it's compact enough to hide from sight when not in use. I like the firmness of the large roller and small roller, and the whole kit feels very sturdy and well constructed. The only slightly annoying thing is that the massage stick fits very snug into the gear roller so it takes a lot of effort to pull out, and I worry whether the handle might break over time. Better that than too loose and constantly falling out, I guess.
Foam rolling works based on the idea that pressure applied to certain body parts helps to work out knots and relieve pain. Until I started using foam rollers I didn\u2019t realize how many knots I had in my body. I do stretches regularly but you still don\u2019t get it all out.
There are a number of great roller positions you can use. The ones I find most effective are for my quads and hamstring. You prop your roller onto your hamstrings (or quads) and hold a low plank with the weight centred over the roller. Hold position for a few seconds at a time where you feel pain / discomfort and slowly roll up and down every part of your legs. The same concept works with calves and glutes. Just roll slowly onto the roller putting as much weight as you can on the point of contact between the roller and your body.
My back and neck are often sore, so I\u2019ll lie on my back with the large roller tucked under my lower back and then arch backwards. With the gear roller, I like propping it under my neck and pushing down on the pain pressure points. I\u2019ve also run the massage stick up and down sore spots on my neck and along my shoulders.
Overall there are lots of uses and plenty of exercises you can look up online. It\u2019s a great way to work out muscle knots and relieve soreness and tightness from exercise. It also loosens your muscles and prevents tearing. I received a review sample of this roller for my honest opinion, and I wouldn\u2019t hesitate to purchase another if I were to misplace this one.", "label": 1}

I put the orange plugs in and went to sleep.
At 4am I woke up with pain in my left ear. I remove the right plug and try to remove the left plug, but the clear plastic nib comes out and leaves the plug in my ear.
For the next hour I try to pull the plug out but I can't. It's painful and I'm worried I need to go to an emergency room. Without the clear plastic nib it's impossible to grab onto. I try tweezers, but I can't get a grip.
At 5am, I wake up my neighbor and ask them for help. He tries the tweezers but it doesn't work. We decide to gently insert a wooden toothpick into the hole where the clear plastic nib used to be, and after about 30 minutes of very careful jiggling, we get it out.
I cry.
My neighbor consoles me. We go to bed. I can't sleep, my adrenaline has been activated. I normally wake up at 9am, so I lost 5 hours of sleep that night.
This is DANGEROUS and should never be sold to consumers.
===== RE: The Gummy Silicone Earplugs =====
These are the most usable, but they worry me. They aren't effective unless the gummy part extends into the ear canal, which you're not supposed to do based on the directions, but if you do this it forms a vacuum seal and does pretty good at keeping sound out.
The issue is that if you so much as tap your ear, you'll feel it on your ear drums because of the seal. You have to be VERY VERY VERY careful when you pull these out or you'll rupture your eardrums.
If you put them in like you're supposed to, just covering the outside of the ear canal, they let almost all of the sound in still. They can't be used safely, in my opinion, and I recommend NOT using them in an unsafe way just to get them to work. I was desperate and so I did it the unsafe way, but don't do what I did.
===== RE: The other earplugs =====
The grey bomb-shaped ear plugs were not effective at all for me, they sat in my ear and let all the sound in still. They have clear plastic fins on them to pull them out, and although mine didn't break like the orange earplugs did, I would still be afraid of them being a safety hazard if they did break.
The blue christmas-tree shaped earplugs seem the safest, they are all one piece of rubber and so it seems like a very low risk of breaking, and you can safely insert them and they seem to work. The only issue is they're not really meant to block sound so much as reduce volume, so I can still hear snoring, construction work, etc. Plus, they have a long piece that sticks out and prevents you from putting your ears on your pillow comfortably. If you sleep on your back, or you don't use them for sleeping, they would be fine. I'd recommend this pair to you if you just need to reduce noise and not block it out completely and don't sleep on your side.
===== Quick Summary =====
Except for the blue christmas tree shaped earplugs, I would recommend you just throw these ear plugs in the trash so you don't hurt yourself.", "label": 0}

I was diagnosed with a Pelvic Floor Dysfunction which led me to the inability to have a bowel movement on my own. And that, undoubtily, led to all sorts of problems, health issues and diseases:
- Auto-immune
- Lupus
- Chronic Fatigue
- Epstein Barr
- Hypo Thyroid/ Hatchimotos (sp?)
- Fibermyelgia
... prior to this, I was extremely healthy! My career was in fitness. But after years of major constipation (at least 30 yrs), my "then" healthy body couldn't fight off the toxins anymore. I became so toxic and sick. There were days I could hardly get out of bed, but when I did - all I could think about was when I could lay back down and take a nap again.
I'm a mom of a young family. This unhealthiness was unacceptable, buy I was clueless regarding what I could do about it. So I decided to doctor at the world famous Mayo Clinic, with the best docs in the world!! After months and months of tests, the ONLY thing they could come up with was to remove my colon and live with a colostomy bag the rest of my life!!! I was so depressed, but didn't believe I had any other choice.
Right before my surgery, my husband suggested I go see a Naturalpathic doctor to see if they could help me in any way. They chose to take me on as their most challenging, constipated patient/ client.
A BiG part of regaining my health was getting professional colonics. Do you know how expensive those things are? Between $60-$100!!! I was getting one a week for 18 months (yes, that's how impacted I was). I knew this couldn't continue doing this as who can afford a life-style of this? I sure couldn't on my income. My extended family felt so badly for me, they would gift me with a colonic a month, just to help me out , when they could. But I was still paying thousands out of my own pocket to continue this major cleanse I needed. I thought I'd eventually have to just give in and use the "bag" as it was more "affordable"!
That's when I found out about this colonic board! Best info I've ever received!! Changed my life!! I ordered it immediately, it came in the mail that week, and I set it up (very simple) and went right to work. During my first colonic, while using it - I had tears in my eyes. It worked!!! What an answer to prayer. No more having to pay for all those professional colonics. On a side note, I just finished a radical 8-day detox/ cleanse, and using my colonic board daily was a big part of that .
I now feel better than I have in years! I'm not kidding. I lost my bloated weight, I've got never ending energy,, my body nor my joints hurt anymore, I cant wait to get out of bed in the mornings, I'm happier ... no longer depressed, etc. I am forever grateful to my new colonic board that has given me back not only my health, but my life!
PS - Just to warn you, I've never met a 'Western' medical doctor who has approved of this practice, so don't expect them to be jumping up and down on your new-found discovery with you. But at the same time, I've never met a doctor - nor any person, who had as bad of a Chronic Constipation problem as I had.", "label": 1}

----------------------------------------------
Tai Ping Hou Kui rests among the ten most famous green teas in China, but everything from the look of the leaves to the packing style differs greatly from the norm. The absolute highest grades of Tai Ping Hou Kui will feature leaves that exceed 15cm in length and are picked in perfectly identical sizes and bound together with cotton string. Another hallmark feature of Tai Ping Hou Kui is the grid pattern visible on each leaf that comes from the pressing during production; something that is always done by hand, not machine.
All other green teas are prized for their selected makeup of a small top-bud and leaf combination. Older and larger leaves picked lower down usually have unfavorable tastes and looks. Tai Ping Hou Kui is the different, with an unbelievably clean and refreshing taste along with a light grassy aroma. The unusually large bud and leaf combination is specific to only this area of Huang Shan (Yellow Mountain) in Anhui province. The leaves can produce several infusions that maintain the deliciously green flavor and offer a great sight to behold with the enormous leaves standing upright in the glass.
This is a very high grade with reasonable leaf uniformity and few broken leaves. Leaf sizes range from 6-10cm each!

Huangshan Mao Feng Tea, one of China's ten most famous green teas, was first produced in 1875 during The Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) in the area around Huangshan Mountain. The area features ideal growing climate for the tea. The tea trees are grown at altitudes of over 700 meters, and the fertile soil, cool air, and adequate rain make the tea leaves large and strong which gives Huangshan Mao Feng tea its long lasting aroma. What distinguishes Huangshan Mao Feng Tea from other Mao Feng Teas is the color of its leaves. The tea liquor is jade green in color and has a light flowery fragrance.
Huangshan Mao Feng Tea's name derives from its appearance and its growing location. The leaves look like the tongues of birds covered with silvery floss. In Chinese, \"Mao\" means fluffy, and \"Feng\" means mountain peaks. Although it is not a scented tea, it has many properties similar to scented tea. The tea liquor has an apricot flavor, and a fragrance like magnolias. No apricot trees or magnolias grow in the area, so it is unknown how Huangshan Mao Feng gets its unique flavors. There is however wild peach trees that grow in close proximity to the tea plants, and that may be the cause. Huangshan Mao Feng Tea drinkers say that the first brewing is fragrant, the second brewing is sweet, and the third brewing is strong. The tea tastes clean and refreshing, and lasts a long time on the tongue.
The techniques and production of Huangshan Mao Feng Tea are unique. The leaves are picked in when still buds with one unfolding leaf. The leaves when processed are yellow-green and covered with silvery hair. The best Huangshan Mao Feng Tea is picked early in the year in what is called pre Qingming picking, which is in early April. After picking, the tea leaves are spread out thinly in the sunlight to allow the leaves to wither. The freshly withered leaves are then pan fried in large woks over an open fire. The pan frying prevents the tea leaves from fermenting (oxidizing). While the tea leaves are being pan fried, they are rolled, which causes the leaves to twist, and curl. The production techniques strive to preserve the natural flavor of the fresh leaves, so that that flavor may be released during brewing.
There is an ancient Chinese legend surrounding the origins of Huangshan Mao Feng Tea. It is said that young scholar and a beautiful woman who worked in a tea plantation were madly in love. One day a local landowner saw the woman and wanting her for his own, seized her and forced her to become her concubine. The woman escaped only to find that the landowner had killed the young scholar. When she found this out, she immediately went to his grave which was located high on a mountainside. She wept uncontrollably until she became the rain, and the young scholar became a tea tree. It is said this is why the area where the tea trees grows is cloudy and humid all year. The tea orchards growing on the mountain slopes near Huangshan Mountain are beautiful any time of the year, but the best time to visit it is when the girls are out among the tea trees picking the fresh buds. It is a particularly beautiful scene. Visitors to the area at this time are able to go out among the tea trees and help in the harvesting of this wonderful tea.", "label": 1}

But when i used it I would use it after using and callous scrubber and a scraper, then a smaller scraper and yes, really, sandpaper !The battery version of this was mainly to smooth the skin after all other efforts were done. This was all time consuming and annoying to say the least. The battery version was "ok" for smoothing and frankly if you had bad heels etc. it would work but I would work for a long time, usually giving up and doing more later that day and it did not really do much. So, thanks to the wonderful folks who answered my questions I decided to give this a try. it came today. Turned it on (about a 6 ft. cord) and proceed to work on my heels. Wow, I fell in love with this thing. The battery version would slow down and even stop if pressure was put on it. And yes, I know you don't want to put too much pressure because you don't want to take skin off, but heck, you need to put "some" pressure if you have callus' or bad heels. For those that want just touching up then the battery version will work. For us with serious problems ... well.. we need this thing!! I stopped after a bit because I did not want to take off too much until I got the hang of this Emjoi but will go back this evening to do more. And I think one more go round will pretty much take care of my heel problem. Not sure how often I will have to do it. That will come with time. But this is so much more easier than anything else I have used (sandpaper included) and loads faster. This is honestly well worth the money. Oh yes, I think it is actually quieter than the battery version too. I might keep the battery version to take on trips though in case touch ups needed But to be honest this Power Emjoi just flat out does the job for me.
OH, also, don't always go in the same direction. Changing direction will ensure you are getting a really all around smooth surface. And, don't hold the pedi in the same place too long of course, Besides getting an uneven filing down area you might wind up taking off too much skin in one place. So move it around !
Update: 6/11 Because of the condition of my heels I found I had to use the Emjoi Power about 2 times a day for the last few days. I determined rather than try and undue everything in one go (that would have taken quite some time) By doing some every day I made sure I wasn't taking off too much skin etc. Bottom line my heels were bad enough that doing it in just one time would not have really worked well. So, do some everyday and in a few days you'll be happy. Woke up this morning and rubbed my heels (don't laugh) because previously the jaggedness of my heels would scratch my other leg, get caught in my nightgown etc. Yep not nice. This morning.. my heels are "smoooooooth" ! Just don't rush it, little bit a few times a day until your heels get where you want them. From there as I said I'll see how often I have to touch them up.", "label": 1}

Well, as some have pointed out, they become very difficult to blow through after a fairly short time in use. Some have suggested placing some cotton balls in the blow end, removing them when the unit begins to clog up. That\u2019s a good idea, as the way this actually works is 2 fold.
It has both a paper fiber air filter, similar in appearance to the automotive air cleaner filters of yesteryear, and after the smoke passes through that, it is then passed through activated charcoal. From my experiments with making my own filters, I can attest to the fact that it\u2019s the paper filter that actually removes the visible smoke (resin), as filters I\u2019ve made that used activated charcoal only, even when constructed to route the smoke efficiently & evenly through all of the charcoal, don\u2019t remove visible smoke, at all.
So, it would seem that the charcoal is there only to remove smell and possibly any drug elements, such as THC, or nicotine. So, by placing the cotton balls in the blow end, they begin to absorb most of the resin, which is what is making the smoke visible, preventing most of it from getting to the internal paper filter. But, even this method will eventually clog the paper filter element within the unit.
There is a solution to this. I take a bottle of 99.9% Iso Alcohol and place it in a deep kettle of water - water as hot as I can get it from my tap, to heat the alcohol up. WARNING - NEVER USE FLAME OR THE STOVE TO HEAT ALCOHOL, UNLESS YOU LIKE SERIOUS BURNS!
After the alcohol has had time to become heated, it is then poured slowly, a bit at a time, into the SmokeBuddy. As it will take some time to break through the resin, it won\u2019t take much to fill the unit to the top. At first, it will just sit there. But in a minute, it will begin to flow out the bottom, and it will have a ton of resin in it.
I do this over a large bowl. I pour about 8 ounces through the unit. I also use a paper towel to dry off any spilled alcohol at the rim, so I can put my mouth on it and blow the alcohol through. But, it\u2019s important not to do this too soon, as the heated alcohol, being allowed to flow slowly, will absorb more resin then blowing it through. The blowing helps clear out the last of the alcohol, and I only do it after each pour stops running out the bottom, to clear it out for the next pour. You can\u2019t pour in too much at a time due to how slowly it flows through. Try not to overflow it.
Once this has been done, leave the unit all day to dry out the alcohol. Blowing through it from time to time will help. If you desperately need to use it before it dries completely, you can, but I try to avoid it. When it\u2019s finished, it will flow almost as well as it did when new, and so far, I\u2019ve not yet been able to use one up to the point that I can\u2019t re-clean it. I\u2019d have given it 5 stars, if the maker had cared enough to make it out of metal, and so that you can unscrew the top to change the paper filter & even replace the charcoal, when needed.
Instead, they\u2019ve elected to have us contribute more to pollution, as people will be throwing these plastic bodied units into the trash when they no longer work. As I said, they should have made them out of metal. They would cost more, but they would last forever, with only the filter elements being repurchased and replaced as needed. Far better for the environment & for the customer. There are just WAY too many disposable items being made and sold these days.", "label": 1}

It is a 100% Whey isolate with 0 carbs and 0 fat. It is fruit juice flavored (and some others) and very thin. It is the consistency of gatorade which is a plus because i like to sip it intra workout and its not heavy at all.\u00a0
The value is pretty good considering its an isolate, but i usually buy concentrate which is cheaper. I can deal with the lactose but if you cant this is lactose free.
Its around 25 dollars for 36 scoops at 34 grams of protein each so its not bad at all for an isolate
As for flavors, all of them are really good, I made all of them with 8 oz of water and some ice cubes. They taste like what they say they will and dont have a diet aftertaste which is nice. They do foam alot if you shake them but about 5 minutes of settling and they are fine. i have tried 13 flavors because of a variety pack i bought and here are my ratings.
Apple Ecstasy: 10/10, tasted just like a green apple air head. not very sour but nice and sweet.\u00a0
Caribbean Cooler: 7/10. This was good but i just dont like coconut. It tastes like a pina coolada which im not a huge fan of.
Crystal Sky: 7/10 I thought this would be the best, it is like a tropical punch but its very heavy on the pineapple and i thought it was too tangy.\u00a0
Fuzzy Navel: 9/10 This was a peach orange blend that tasted alot like tang with a little peach in it. it was very good\u00a0
Lemon Tea: 8/10 I thought this would be gross but it actually tasted like lemon tea. for anyone who likes arnold palmer it comes very close to that.
Pink\u00a0Grapefruit: 9/10 It tastes just like what you would think, it was very good and very refreshing
Roadside Lemonade: 7/10 This did not taste like lemonade! it tasted like lemon meraunge(?) pie, but it was good if you dont think about it as lemonade
Strawberry Kiwi: 10/10 this was one of my favorites. it was mostly strawberry but it was still really good
Twisted Cherry: 7/10 This was good if you like cherry, it was a little artificial tasting but im not a huge cherry guy.
Cappuccino: 10/10 WOW this was really good. it tasted just like a dunkin donuts frappaccino.\u00a0
Chocolate truffle: 7/10 It was an average chocolate, a little too sweet for my taste
Vanilla Torte: 10/10 Second best Vanilla ever, to Muscle Milk\u00a0but at 1/3 the calories. Amazing
Strawberry truffle: 8/10 it was a good creamy, sweet strawberry. tasted like strawberry shortcakes
All in all this is an awesome isolate for the price, and the unique flavors are all really good. i would recommend to anyone.

Low Carbs/fat

At least 2 removable/washable pads included
Small enough format for rinsing in the sink
Vertical storage of head, so we could put it in kitchen broom closet...freshly wrung out.
a color that was not obnoxiously bright for my kitchen
This broom fit all of those criteria. My cats are messy eaters of wet food, so it's either clean up the floor in that area every day, or clean mats AND the floor, because with mats, food often still ended up on the floor.
CONS of this:
1. Arrival/Assembly: It arrives in parts and if you've never had a mop like this (we hadn't), it is not obvious how the parts go. First, part of it was put together just for shipment, and we struggled mightily to take it apart just to be able to assemble it properly. (There were no instructions for that first act, so one immediately feels stress.) Then, the very poor instructions were small line drawings that were difficult for my older eyes and not obvious. Upon enough studying of the pics, I was able to figure out how it should be...but by then, my impatient daughter had already put it together incorrectly based on false logic and we were afraid it would break as we tried to undo it for proper assembly.
2. When mopping, it does fill somewhat flexible/flimsy, my daughter and I can't come up with a word for it. But I think it may be that the plastic parts aren't that firm, so it just feels like it might fall apart if you put too much pressure on it. That said, it does work. Just not sure if it will be for very long. I suspect the pads will outlast the mop.
3. This is perhaps more assembly, again, but it took us awhile that one end of the pad has to be \"fitted\" onto the mop head or the pad won't stay put when using the wringer feature. The line drawing provided did not make this clear to us, or we just didn't \"get\" the drawing.
PROS:
This mop did satisfy all of my factors listed above.
1) Storage is cool...wring it out and store it vertically in broom closet. The wringing out is good enough that I can place it immediately in the cupboard after use. My \"better\" microfiber mop does not store with the head vertical like that, and it is too big for my small broom closet.
2) Washing and Wringing out in kitchen sink with the faucet and faucet sprayer works great. It's JUST small enough that I don't have to make a huge spraying mess all over...with a bit of care, no water overspray goes anywhere.
3) The microfiber pads are excellent.
4) For small, quick, daily chores, it is very nice. My use was the cat food area...I just spray the area with some vinegar/Dawn/water mixture, wait a few minutes and come back with this mop (dry from the cupboard), go over it a few times and it gets most of the cat food off the floor after a 3-4 minute soak. Occasionally, I have to rough up a spot or two. I usually rinse and repeat the mopping and then rinse, wring out and back in the cupboard.
5) The price was very fair, under $25 with Prime Delivery. If it lasts me a year, I would buy it again...even though I truly would rather pay $10 more and have a forever mop with replaceable/purchasable pads. The world just doesn't work like that anymore, though.", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3593, "id": 17406, "interval": [700, 800], "len_words": 633, "len_tokens": 745, "text": "After more than a decade of using TENS machines and this is my third. Frankly, I have been very happy with all of them and this one is no exception. While a TENS treatment does not cure permanently but it does give such relief and it\u2019s so reassuring to know that you have this tiny, portable machine that can make a such difference. (I don\u2019t use either EMS mode nor massage mode, but they are available in this machine).
What I like about this one is that it has a size and shape that easily slips into a pocket. It is so intuitive to use you almost don\u2019t need the very clear and almost perfect instruction booklet. I say \u201calmost\u201d because there are some things left unexplained. They weren\u2019t explained in my old unit either but I had hoped to gain some insight now and didn\u2019t.
The cables that attach to the electrode pads have red and black tips. Like with jumping cables, red is positive and black is negative. The placement diagrams give no explanation as to why sometimes polarity matters and sometimes it doesn\u2019t. Another gap is that no explanation is given as to the difference between program parameters. My old machine had 4 program modes, this one has 6. I\u2019ve always assumed that P1 is weaker than the higher levels, but it\u2019s never explained.
Other than that, even if this is your first TENS machine, you\u2019re going to find it easy-to-use and you will be comfortable with it from the get-go. It is logical and doesn\u2019t waste your time having to choose a body part like other devices. This is a ridiculous choice. Once you set the time, the program mode, and the intensity of treatment the machine will provide the exact output you selected anywhere you place the electrode pads.
The treatments are excellent\u2014deep and intense--but, if you\u2019re used to another device, the output modes are not standardized between devices. An output mode (strength of the pulsating current) set to 5 on this one is the equivalent of a setting of 15 on my previous one. This unit has a feature that allows you to set the duration of treatment, although I\u2019ve found the default of 30 minutes is ideal. It provides the relief you need, a longer time doesn\u2019t really seem to add any benefit.
It comes with two channels which means that two cords can be plugged in with two sets of electrode pads placed on different parts of the body. Maybe you want to treat your neck and lower back at the same time. Or you can use both sets of pads around one painful area. This is a scenario in which the positive and negative charges come into play, so check the diagram for that body part or the shape you want to use (like containing your painful area within a square).
I have a pacemaker. While my doctors didn\u2019t feel that the TENS waves would interfere with it, I still took the unit to my cardiologist\u2019s office and had the technician check. They ran the pacemaker interrogator without the TENS and again with the TENS placed at shoulder level on the opposite side of the pacemaker and there was no interference. You might want to take a similar precaution for your own peace of mind.
Other than the info I wish had been included in the booklet, my only other objection is that the sticky pads have to be stored on easy-to-lose transparent thick paper holders. If you drop it or put it on your desk, you lose it. A thicker, plastic holder should be provided. These pads are expensive and must be protected. For these two deficits, I\u2019ve deducted one star to an otherwise close to perfect TENS machine\u2014probably the best I\u2019ve had when it comes to performance.", "label": 1}

I couldn't have been any more wrong in my life. I started reading the reviews and I will speak for myself. I thought the site said I would be emailed the directions once the order was placed. I wasn't so I contacted the seller (Raw Diet) and they wrote back immediately saying the instructions come in the box. Well I got the box today, used the board and bucket today. Here is what happened. First of all I am 5 feet 9 inches tall and I am 133 pounds (before doing this thing) The board was light. I can not say how light because I did not weigh it but if I had to guess I would say about 10 pounds. I had no issues at all lifting it what so ever. The bucket was even lighter. I made a few mistakes so I am going to cover them as well. Before I read the instructions I pulled the sleeve off the tube (I don't know why I did- but I did) It was a B!T@# to get back on, so don't do that. Secondly, My bathroom is not small and I had no problem with space. But if you have a small bathroom this may be an issue. Measure before you buy it. I used this vanity stool to put under the board and CLEARLY on the instructions it says use a chair a few inches higher then your commode. Well... That is for very good reason. Gravity is your friend when you are doing this. To lay flat means nothing moves in a natural motion (Down to the toilet) Once I got going, I felt water on my lower back. I immediately started gagging even though it was only water I had no idea what "it " was at that point and just the thought made me sick. Since it was my bathroom I had bath towels handy and I rolled four up and leaned to rectify this issue. I will definitely use a taller chair next time. I filled the blue bucket up, and used only half the water because that was 45 minutes for me. I have had a professional colonic many times and it lasts about that long. So I knew what to expect. Even if there were not instructions this was possibly the easiest thing to figure out. Its one tube for Gods sake. Two ends of the tube.... its not rocket science at all. So reading the bad review that there were no instructions panicked me (seriously) and then I got it, DUH!
Fill the water bucket with 98-99 degree water so you do not shock your system. Hook one end of the tube to the water bucket, stick the tube through the hole in the curved part of the board and then attach the plastic thingy (that is the medical term) to it and add lubrication to it and you are good to go. I got myself familiar with the water shut off plastic clip before I put water in it so I wouldn't have any weird mishaps. Worse then water being on my back :) I did do several courtesy flushes for myself because I am cool like that. When I was done, I jumped in the shower and cleaned it all up with bleach. Then I weighed myself. 128 HA. I did not buy it to loose weight at all. I bought it because my Mom just died of Liver cancer and I read more then I should ever have had too about how to prevent it. I am trying to stay on top of the health game that's all. I hope this helps.", "label": 1}

I used to have regular feet and never really noticed anyone else's feet, either. But after my first kid, my feet changed. They became some scaly, dry, chicken/lizard skin feet that would crack and peel. Gross, I know. That was my life. I finally got my first pedicure about seven years ago and the lady who did my feet broke a sweat trying to remove the calluses. My sister told me that when you comment on the dryness of your feet and how bad they are, the lady always says, \"Oh, no. I've seen worse than this!\" Then you feel better and move on. So I said to the lady working on my feet, \"I'll bet you've never seen worse than this.\" All she said was, \"Oh, well, you know.\" And that was it. I had the worst calluses she'd ever seen. On my feet. I tried really hard from then on to keep them pretty but I can honestly tell you there's nothing out there short of a belt sander that would suffice. Lotions work but they leave a residue that attracts every dirt particle within a mile to your feet, and creates a very slippery surface if you're going to shower at all within a week of applying. Since I shower every day, I had some issues with that. I did manage to find a pumice stone I might use if I bathed and could soak my feet. It took quite a while to get results even then. I also had a small oval disk that I would use to try and manage my feet but it took so long to get where I needed to be that my hands would literally cramp up! I know, gross!
Enter this beautiful callus remover. I didn't know it existed until recently when I came across it on Amazon. I read every single review and decided to put it on my list. My sweet husband bought me presents from my wish list and voila! Callus remover for Christmas! I used it that very night. I honestly didn't know what to expect but I was BLOWN AWAY at the results: I have regular feet again! By simply turning this on, my feet were getting softer by the second as I ran it over my heels. It looked like it snowed. Gross, I KNOW! But that's what you WANT to see because that's all the dead, dry skin that pedicure ladies work so hard to get off your feet! I used this for a few minutes and learned pretty quickly that, even for someone like me who has heels that resemble a Saharan riverbed, you can't keep the callus remover in one place for more than a few seconds at a time. I thought I had lost the ability to feel through my heels but if you do keep this thing in one place for very long, it starts to feel hot and burning. I thought it was friction at first, because it is. But it's also because it's so efficient at removing that dead skin that it will remove even good skin you didn't know you had, hiding under however many layers of chicken/lizard skin. So learn from me and don't do that. I never inured myself, mind you, but I definitely felt the difference. This little machine powered through everything I had thrown at it and never even blinked. You don't have to press down hard for it to work, you let the sandpaper do the work for you. Keep that in mind when you use this. That being said, it's still a little powerhouse and my husband, my children, my sheets, and little tiny pedicure ladies all thank it profusely.", "label": 1}

I wanted to make sure i got a good quality pillow and it would last a long time. The problem began i believe just after a year i started to notice allergies I've never had before like i couldn't have dark beer or my airways started to close up. I thought well that's weird i guess i will stay away from beer which is okay since i usually don't drink much. After a few months i started to notice when i ate wheat bread my airways would start closing again or horrible bathroom experience sometimes both. At this point i'm thinking maybe i'm getting old (25) body is changing i can't have somethings. One night i wake up and i couldn't breathe! I had to sit in the shower and inhale a little water just to breathe again it was horrible. I figured just to be safe ill go to the doctor see what he thinks. I get told i have asthma, which I've never had, and i played football and basketball growing up i'm in good shape still play basketball a few time a month. I figure this doctor is probably stupid but i couldn't deny the attack i had that night so i figured what the hell i get an inhaler in case my airways close up again. I probably should have gotten one sooner but well i don't like doctor visits. So after a few more months i started to wake up with a runny noise itchy throat and wheezing sometimes. I thought okay time to do some research to figure out whats going on. I decide its gotten bad enough i need to put pillow covers on and mattress covers on my bed and fully clean the floors with special cleaners from the allergy store. I even washed my blankets and sheets in special detergent for people with allergies which is suppose to help and remove dust mites. I even took this pillow apart and washed it. This seemed to help but after a week i was back where i started if not worse. I thought okay maybe i have to do this every week. After a few weeks it didn't seem to work as well i was still waking up wheezing. I thought okay maybe i'm allergic to polyester which is what my pillow and sheet covers are made of. So i bought nice cotton everything. Which still didn't help well a little but not much. Finally i thought maybe its the pillow this all started after i got the pillow it is buckwheat and i'm allergic to wheat it seems. Then i did some research on buckwheat allergies. Turns out all my problems can be caused by this pillow. I remember reading that the pillow is suppose to be fully washed and cleaned to prevent these type of problems. Now only about 1 in 6000 people or so suffer from buckwheat allergy if they are not cleaned correctly. If they are then my understanding is it is extremely rare to have the problems I've been having. So rare that I don't believe there is an exact est. well i couldn't find one anyway. So are these pillows washed and cleaned like they should be well you decide. But anyone with allergies be careful. Oh on a side note i even developed an allergy to my cats which has now slowly diminished after about 5 months or so of not sleeping on this pillow. The Pillow was very comfortable but i will never do a buckwheat pillow again. I hope this review helps someone!", "label": 0}

However, this FB-600 model lives up to its claims. It does heat up water for you within a few minutes, and provides as close to a salon type pedicure experience as you can give yourself (or someone else) at home.
I got this to save money on those pricey salon visits to get my nails done. I've only used it for pedicures as it was designed for, but honestly I think it's versatile enough to be used for your manicures, too. Beats buying a second gadget for the same purpose if your goal is similar to what mine is - to save yourself $30-40 every 1-4 weeks to get someone else to care for your hands and feet. It makes for a very relaxing evening or weekend afternoon in my recliner with my favorite tv show and a glass of wine. Even though I'm the one doing all the work.
For the other features, now that I've attested to the effectiveness of the one everyone wants to know about - THE HEATING - here's how I think they rate.
Bubbling - 3/5
Moderate noise that is muffled once your feet are in the tub. Be careful with any lathering products you might be tempted to put in the tub for your soak because this setting will make MAJOR bubbles like the kind on a cartoon when someone tips over a whole box of bubble bath. Only put in one or two drops at the most.
Vibrating - 2/5
Very noisy to the point that if you're using this while watching tv or talking to someone on the phone you will have to adjust volume to do both. I think this is supposed to give a massaging effect, but honestly I didn't feel anything when I used the vibration function except annoyed. Does not cause as much lather as the bubble setting does.
Heating - 4/5
Like I already mentioned, this feature is VERY GOOD for this price. It heats the water to a nice temp and keep it that way for as long as it's plugged in so you can have a 15 minute soak or take an hour to do a full pedicure and be slow about it. Two minor adjustments that would make this PERFECT that are probably available on higher end units for a lot more $$$. 1) A thermostat to actually set the temperature you want your water/ It just happens to get it right for me, but everyone may not be as pleased as I am with the auto setting. 2) It does not allow you to use ONLY heat, so in order to have heat you must turn on either bubbles or vibration as well. This is a minor inconvenience to me as I'm finishing a pedicure and really don't need the bubbles anymore but would like to still have the tub warm for the foot I'm not working on. Minor, but still an inconvenience, no less.
Attachments - 3/5
These are moderately useful, especially if you don't keep your own pedicure tools around or are just starting out. There are two pumice stones with different grits, a brush, and a roller for massage. They are all mounted to the machine and can be detached for use (yes, even the one in the middle). It's a nice little bonus. Personally, I like the little storage hatch up at the top of the machine with the three attachments not currently in use (whichever is not in the middle) and think this is a great place for me to store my other tools - cuticle nippers & scissors, nail clippers, files, cuticle oil, etc.", "label": 1}

There is no thinning no slowed growth. By now there should be some results, the hair is still back to above skin stubble within 24 hours of shaving. After 6 months that means this doesn't work AT ALL. Zero stars.
5/15/2022 - I have been using this once a week for almost 5 months now. By now, I should start seeing slower hair growth and thinner hair. That's not happening. I am sometimes zapping twice a week at level 4. Level 5 hurts and I'm not ready for it. It's not showing any results. I will update this again in 2 months. I do expect slower results but right now we're looking at NO results.
This laser hair remover was definitely worth trying because covers a range of skin tones up to medium dark and most hair colors. It\u2019s an important factor as many of the at home units will only treat lighter skin tones.
What you need to know:
I am rating it for:
Hair: medium, medium-coarse, coarse
Skin: Medium brown
Areas: Chin, jawline, upper lip, neck and legs
Now let\u2019s manage expectations: This is an at-home product, it will not work at the same speed as professional machines for that price. If professional sessions would work permanently in 6 months, I expect this to take double that time or a little more. This little machine is costing less than a single professional treatment so I don\u2019t expect it to work like my dermatologist\u2019s monster unit.
It is super easy to use. I barely read the instructions (not recommended).
The auto-zap setting is very convenient. I prefer it to having to press the button for each inch of treatment.
I have spent thousands on laser removal at a dermatologist that specialized in people of color skin tones. It worked meaning that the hair fell off and took longer to regrow BUT after 6 months of treatments, I stopped and not only did all the hair grow back, but some of it also grew stronger and I got more in areas that had very little before. Now it is very likely hormonal, and I could understand new hair growth but not in the areas previously treated over months.
Week one, Level 1\u2013daily treatment (not recommended). I noticed some bald spots on my legs after use (probably from some of the hair being burned off. I am doing it daily because I know that the mild zapping cannot and will not kill the hair root if left to a normal 4-week schedule. My skin can handle it. Do not take this as advice.
I am now at week three and Level 3 \u2013 level 2 was easy and pain-free for me. I can feel the zapping more at Level 3, I would not consider that pain. My facial hair is still growing at its normal rate and looking the same. I am not expecting visible results for another 3 to 5 weeks. I am now zapping every 3 days.
I will update this review when I have more to offer in terms of results or lack thereof. For me, because I have so much facial hair, this is an expense I could justify whether or not it works in the long term. It\u2019s one of those things I had to try, because if it works, I will save thousands (that I don\u2019t have anyway).", "label": 0}

The trouble with Viagra is that it wasn't really designed to help with erection, instead, it was a side effect of what it was meant to do.

SALAMAT & Thanks to Amazon's Vine Voices Program, I came across [Best Earth Naturals SEXUAL SUPPORT FOR MEN]. Unboxing revealed that it comes in a 30 capsules bottle, with its suggested dosage of 1 to 2 per day, this is equivalent to at most one month supply. I'm not so sure if any supplement, especially sexually, a 15- to 30 day period is enough for all the active ingredients to do its magic. However, I have given it a try, nothing to lose.
One of the key active, and therefore listed first on the bottle, ingredients is Niacin. A daily dose of niacin, also known as vitamin B3, improves erectile function in men with high cholesterol, a new study finds. The results show that the 80 men who took niacin and began the study with moderate or severe erectile dysfunction (ED) reported an improvement in their ability to maintain an erection. Another key ingredient, listed second on the bottle, is zinc. Zinc is vital to the development and function of the male sex organs. Males with zinc deficiency have been shown to have less developed testes and reduced sperm count. Zinc supplements may be used as a potential treatment for ED. Zinc helps produce key sex hormones, such as testosterone and prolactin. Third on the list is copper - Zinc is vital to the development and function of the male sex organs. Males with zinc deficiency have been shown to have less developed testes and reduced sperm count. Studies in medical journals as show that zinc supplements may be used as a potential treatment for ED as it helps produce key sex hormones, such as testosterone and prolactin. Zinc also enables the creation of the main component of prostatic fluid. In addition, there's evidence that dietary zinc may impact male sexual competency

The VERDICT
Best Earth Naturals SEXUAL SUPPORT FOR MEN is a simple way to lift your libido naturally. It includes key ingredients that are well-known to help with erectile dysfunction issues in men. These 30-day supply comes in easy to take and swallow capsules, making it easy to stick to your regiment. However, I don't believe in magic pills, especially those that claim it does wonders. Just like I don't believe in magic pills that will help you lose weight - best way is still good genes, good diet and regular exercise, natural supplements are a complement to this philosophy. Sexual support is no different - hence, a 60 to 90 day supply would have been more realistic to properly review. For now, after a month or so, it \"feels\" good but I'm not sure it's mainly due to its formula or it's my regular exercises and good diet that's doing the trick.", "label": 1}

To use the Pumice stone (on your feet, hands, or parts of your body) you should first thoroughly wet it in water so that it can slide easily. After that gently rub it in the circular motion over the rough-skinned area. Keep it rubbing until the dead skin is removed and you get the soft, fresh and supple skin. Rub very gently so that only the surface of the stone is touched to the skin. You should rinse and repeat the process to get the best result out of it. Now after removing dead skin use a towel to pat your skin dry. After that apply cream or oil on the area to prevent it from quick drying. Oils like coconut oil, almond oil, olive oil or any body lotion can be used to condition your skin. To keep your skin in the good and healthy state you can repeat the process as and when required.
I assure you that your feet will be free from callous, cracks and find that your feet will be much smoother than any other alternative You can walk confidently in public with your smooth feet by using any one of the products.

I started using Charlie's laundry powder after reading many favorable reviews about it, first in my old top loader and then in my new HE front loader. The laundry liquid is just as good. All three products are excellent and actually do what they claim to do! I would recommend all three to anyone. They are non-toxic, coconut-based detergents that are biodegradeable and made by a small family-owned company here in the US. They have no additives and do not leave any residues in clothes or in the washer. Buildup of residues can be the cause of odor problems in HE front loaders.
I have used about half of the bottle of laundry liquid for entire loads, and have also used it a few times as a stain pre-treater. It works very well, and so far I can't tell any difference in results between it and the Charlie's laundry powder, which I have used for several months. Both of these laundry detergents will pull old suds and other residues from your clothes first, so it takes several washes of each item before you get a true picture of what they can do. They both dissolve easily, rinse well, and leave clothes soft and very clean once all the old residues are gone. Fabric softeners are not recommended or needed, but stain treatments and bleach are OK to use with them if desired. I usually use only the Charlie's with excellent results. I don't ever intend to go back to my old detergents! Charlie's leaves no scent and the clothes just smell very clean. It's amazing how much softer towels and jeans are after several washes with this detergent, although they took more washes to get rid of the old suds than lighter items did. Charlie's is recommended for cloth diapers, baby clothes, and for sensitive skin. As is also true of regular detergents, it is not a disinfectant. It works great in regular machines as well as in HE washers.
I could use the laundry liquid from now on and be happy, but I like the Charlie's laundry powder even better, only because it is so compact, easier and less messy to measure, and cheaper to use. One bag of the powder will do 80 loads, but the 16.9 oz. bottle of liquid will only do about 16 loads for approximately the same cost. I'm rating it 5 stars because it works so well and has so many desirable qualities. Use one tablespoon scoop of the powder, or two tablespoons (1 fl. oz.) of the liquid for most loads. An advantage of the liquid is that it can double as a stain pre-treater. It is also offered in a medium-sized container, a gallon which does 128 loads. The powder only comes in an 80-load size cloth bag or recyclable jar, and a huge 5-gallon bucket size which does over a thousand loads. Both are excellent products, really just personal preference for a powder or a liquid. The Charlie's all-purpose cleaner is also a good pre-treater as well as for general cleaning.
You can find the ingredients for all three products and more technical info than you probably need on the [...] site. There is also detailed info for using it in hard water, on cloth diapers, for allergies, etc. Their customer service is great, and if you email a question or comment you'll get a quick response. I am hooked on these products.", "label": 1}

However, after almost 2 hours, and following the set-up instructions to a "T," I still couldn't connect to my WiFi. I contacted FItbit, who are always extremely friendly, but couldn't solve my issue. They escalated my case, and I was contacted via email by an "expert." They gave me the following instructions to troubleshoot (See below in quotes). Quite frankly, it's not worth my time to contact my internet service provider (which is always a minimum of 2 hours for anything) to confirm the first requirements. Secondly, even if I was comfortable separately the 2.4 and 5GHz into unique channels, if it still didn't work, check out the questions they ask. Based on the password questions, it sounds like the next step would be to change my WiFi password. Why should I have to go through all of this? This product should just work. I shouldn't need to be an IT Expert to get this to work. Take this product off the market until you improve it. I'm returning the product and going with another brand. Save yourself time and trouble, pay less for a better product. (This is the first bad review I've written but that's how strongly I feel that this is a waste of money).
"We want to let you know that in order the Aria can connect to your WiFi the network must have these requirements:
- Wireless 802.11b (Note: most routers are capable of 802.11b, but not necessarily configured this way). Also Note that if your router is a dual-band router, you should separate the 2.4 and 5 GHz into unique channels, and connect specifically to the 2.4GHz, which allows for 802.11b. If you're not sure about this advise you'll need to contact your local internet service provider.
- WEP/WPA/WPA2 personal security
- Automatic (DHCP) IP setup (static IP configuration not supported)
After making sure it has the requirements above, try to set up your Aria again. You can do this by proceeding through either of the setup methods detailed at: http://fitbit.link/nncet, in which you'll find all requirements needed besides the listed above. You can also watch the video at https://www.youtube.com/embed/.
If you encounter difficulty during this process, we recommend clearing your browser's cache and cookies, turning your router off for 30 seconds, turning your router back on, and attempting setup again. If you're still unable to connect your Aria, please provide us with the following information so that we can assist you further:
1. At what point in the scale setup process do you run into trouble? Please let us know of any error messages you've encountered on the scale or your computer/mobile device.
2. How far is the scale from your router?
3. Do you use any wireless extenders on your network or more than one router?
4. Does your WiFi password exceed 31 characters or spaces?
5. Do your WiFi password and your WiFi's name include any non-alphanumeric characters (such as ! or &)?
6. Were you able to confirm that your router is configured in 802.11b protocol?
7. What is the make and model of your router? Is your router a dual-band router?
8. Do you use any firewalls or MAC filtering?
9. Additionally, kindly provide a photo of your Fitbit Aria's model and serial number located in the battery compartment."", "label": 0}

so more in depth thoughts and blabber:
i love this cushion more than other cushions. most are foam. but its not hot it breathes. I tried sitting on an egg even tho this is 1.25" not the 2inch and the egg didn't crack. i did it slowly carefully but leaned back and raised my arms and legs to make sure my weight was on my buttocks and this thing is soft enough to conform to the pressure of an egg without cracking it. I'm 5' 6" / 7" and a bit hefty at 225lbs. so i'm not a light weight. granted the egg was in my butt crack which has a ... well crack or space to give, but i tried same thing with egg on a normal couch recliner chair with egg in a sandwhich baggy and that egg cracked and exploded.
I slept on this as well just to see. i like firmer and fuller pillows , i'm a side sleeper , and threw this on top of a very thin pillow. its actually firm probably too firm for most people's heads my head didn't sink. this is very supportive of a lot of weight.
I sat on this in my car and my office chair and i can tell i'm physically sitting higher like my knees almost hit bottom of my steering wheel in car and i definitely sit a lil higher. so this cushions and raises your body a good inch or so. but soft enough to site on an egg carefully without having issue.
I would say its safe to assume if you're lighter in weight the 1" or thinner might support your body. i'm 225lbs and this 1 & quarter" thick supports my sitting weight fine.
My office chair and sometimes in my car i get that Tailbone/Coccyx strain and pain. so this cushion , for me, is for providing long term sitting cushion and comfort and relive pressure and pain for me. i do I.T. work and sometimes work on my computer remotely all day, shop all day, and play games ... all in one day so this last week this thing has had a lot of use for one week.
I did stretch this thing out and grabbing the ends and pulling apart, this thing stretches good. the material is like a firm jelly material. doesn't feel like typical anything really. but i've enjoyed it.
i think this thing doesn't feel as soft as it is but it supports nicely and cushiony enough but feels a lil firm but so far haven't had that pain in my coccyx so i'm happy so far so good and its not hot. i live in houston its like 85-95 but feels like 95-105 with 200% humidity so i didn't want a cushion you feel as being hot and didn't want something that goes flat but can support me since i'm a bit over weight actually and i sit a lot. but no pain in the butt after long sitting period is a double!", "label": 1}

It's the kind that spins the head, it's older, it only gets a day out of a charge, and someday it will die. This toothbrush came up in my Vines queue, and I thought I'd try it as a possible replacement - with my old brush (purchases in 2011), it's just a matter of time. In the meantime, I thought I could use this as a travel toothbrush as I travel extensively for business.
First, though, the issue of the vibrating toothbrush (this kind) versus the spinny kind (my old brush); They both seem fine, but it seems like the spinny one is more rigorous. It just happened that I was at the dentist last week for a cleaning and checkup, so I asked. First of all, my dentist and hygienist both said the fact that I am brushing extensively is obvious, so an attaboy there. Second, my dentist explained that the studies he has read say there is no difference whatsoever between the two types, so pick the one you like. Finally, he said the biggest benefit is the timer that lets you know when 30 seconds are up so you brush each quadrant of your mouth for 30 seconds, and your total mouth for 2 minutes. In fact, he said, if you used a regular toothbrush for two minutes it would likely be as good as either of these types. The problem is that the average person (according to my dentist) when told to brush for 2 minutes without a timer brushes for 37 seconds. Enlightening!
So I tried this brush, and it's great. The default settings work just fine for me, but you can dial back the intensity. Remember, I'm used to an electric toothbrush, but you may need to acclimate. It holds a charge for as long as I've tried it (4 days), but I'm not sure that's an issue; the charging base is tiny so you can take it with you if you travel or use it as a holder when home. I like that the unit shuts off after 2 minutes; if you want to brush longer, have at it; just hit the on button again.
Another thing I was concerned with was the replacement heads; my initial thought was that I would have preferred the option of buying heads locally, so I went to my local drug store and bought a couple of different heads to see if they would fit. While they looked similar, none fit, so unless you find one I didn't you have to buy them on Amazon. That being said, a 2-pack of store-brand replacement heads cost $16, while a \"HIEIE Electric Toothbrush Replacement Brush Heads Refill, 4 Count\" only costs $10.99. This negated my objection; if you're concerned these may not be available someday, stock up, they're cheap!
I also like the carrying case, although it would have been nice if the brush heads snapped in a little tighter (they rattle around) and if there was a place to store the little charger base \"puck\". And, if you want a good laugh, take a look at the owner's manual - it's full of typos and bad translations. Things like \"Battery can not be replaced by self, can only be replaced by authorized by our Maintenance Center or Manufactory professional person. Nonprofessionals are prohibited to remove the product\". Do yourself a favor and read the manual. It's short, and it's a hoot!
In summary, it appears to be well made, works well, is dentist approved (my dentist, at least), is inexpensive, comes with a nifty case, and replacement heads are reasonable (I just ordered some). I recommend this and could see buying another one to have a home one and travel one. Highly recommended.", "label": 1}

I did some research and decided it made very good sense. I still think it makes sense, but I can't honestly say the sheet has made any difference in my overall health or sleep patterns. I totally feel that I have wasted a lot of money.
I do go barefoot most of the time (since I work from home I can do that).. So I'm walking on the ground all the time barefoot in warmer months. However, living in northern Michigan, there are many months when that isn't possible. I really thought this sheet would help the most during those winter months..
I purchased it last fall, slept on it all winter, but honestly, it doesn't seem to have done a single thing for me. I tested my outlets with the tester provided to make sure we have proper grounding, and we do, but just can't say I felt any difference. In fact, I took it off my bed about 6 weeks ago and forgot about it until I just received a notice for a teleseminar with Clint Ober as a guest. That's when I realized I hadn't even slept with this sheet for weeks and hadn't noticed any difference at all.
I did contact Clint Ober about this and said that I didn't feel it was doing any thing for me. He asked if I had washed it with bleach or harsh detergents, which I hadn't. He asked if I'd used fabric softener on it, and I had, once, because the directions don't actually warn you not to do so (or at least the ones I received didn't. I found out by listening to another teleseminar he was on)..He said using softener on it once shouldn't hurt it at all. He said I should check to make sure it's connected correctly. It's hooked up the only way it can be, so I assume yes it is. He said I should probably have it checked to make sure it's working.. But other than the tester sent with the sheet to check your outlet, I have no idea how one goes about testing the sheet itself to make sure it's working????? I did ask about that but never received a reply.
At 57, I have many achy joints, especially in the winter months, which did make me think grounding makes sense. When it's warm out and I'm barefoot most of the time, I do feel less achy.. However, the sheet did not seem to help in that area. I also have thyroid problems...saw no difference. And I developed psorisis on my leg over the winter while using it. Had never had it before in my life...I used other, much less expensive alternative solutions to cure the psorisis, but have to question, if this sheet is so good for us, how did I develope something I'd never had before while using it?
All in all, I think there are a lot of other health alternatives out there that are a lot cheaper that will probably work better for you. I hate to say that, I really do, because I so wanted this to be a wonderful investment... The book does have a lot of good info in it. My advice, buy just the book, then spend as much time as you can walking barefoot outside, even if it's only 15 minutes a day.. It's free, and you'll get more out of it than sleeping on this sheet.", "label": 0}

1) Some people were complaining that the beef protein \"foams up\" a bit when blending and that \"true\" beef protein would NEVER do that. I'm not a food scientist who knows the answer to these things, but I have tried other organic, 100% no filler beef protein shakes in the past and they did froth a bit just like this one does. So...I'm going to say a bit of frothing is normal lol. I don't think froth means that all these companies are liars who put sawdust filler in the product :D
2) Some people were complaining that they HAD to mix the flavoring in my hand (which is apparently waaay more physical activity than they're used to). So here's my thoughts:
a) Go order off their website and they'll mix it for you! Problem solved.... :D
b) If you want to pay a lot more money, there are plenty of other preflavored options out there for you, which brings me to my next point of:
c) The company saves money by not having to create an infinite amount of flavor/protein combos and store them alllllllllll which in turn saves YOU (yes, you, the consumer) money in the form of a less expensive but good quality product. If you were wanting to throw away all your dollars on an expensive protein drink, you probably wouldn't have hit the \"sort by price\" button that got you to this product, am I right?? :D
d) Maybe it's just me, but I'm not sure why some people are complaining that you get the option to CHOOSE your own custom protein base and additives and flavors. Like..........wouldn't you be excited to be able to customize what you want rather than being stock with a stock item? I really liked the ability to customize my drink, personally.
e) Some people were complaining that they didn't \"like\" a certain flavor (and to them I say: go pick another flavor then and don't dump the whole container in before trying it! It's super cheap and you can pick lots of flavors so why wouldn't you?) and were complaining that ALL the company's flavors weren't available on Amazon (and for those folks, I can say: um, go to their website directly and pick whatever you want??).
Honestly I'm very happy with what I got. I went directly to their website and picked out my protein base and my additives and my flavors. Some people complained that the flavors were too light (and some people complained that the flavors were too strong, thereby reminding us that you can't please everyone and your opinion is definitely an opinion and not fact) so I chose to go \"heavy\" on one of my flavors BECAUSE I could then just add more water to the drink if I needed to tone it down. (OOO another point! Your drink flavor too strong? ADD water! Your drink flavor too weak? Add LESS water? Magic...... You're not forced to use a specific fl oz ratio; you can customize what works best for you lol).
I even ended up getting a second container with a premade recipe that I thought looked good and I ended up liking that one too!
All in all, this is a really affordable, good quality product that allows for a lot of customization (particularly on their website).", "label": 1}

This is not a white noise machine. It has a variety of noise settings. I found some of them prevented me from relaxing. I certainly wouldn't use it to help me sleep. The first/default noise actually sounded like the unit's sound system was broken, and I perceived noises that sounded like voices. The water and storm noises were anything but calming. Some of the sound settings bother my dog. She whines when I play them. But that's okay as I don't find them relaxing. The water sounds... one sounds like water is flooding, the other sounds like the sink is dripping. The lullaby sounds might sooth a baby, or it might keep them up as they're not soothing to me.
The description says \"USB Charging\". That would imply to me that there is a battery that can be charged. But, not only isn't there a battery, but there isn't anywhere to add batteries. That makes this almost useless as a \"travel\" device. You have to connect this via the USB cable to a phone charger or computer. There is a hole next to the USB-C socket. It looks like it might be an alternative power socket, or for an external speaker. There isn't anything on the unit to describe what it's for, and there isn't anything in the \"User Manual\"
I used quotes around \"User Manual\" above. I don't expect too much documentation as the buttons and usage are pretty intuitive. However, what is being called the user manual is a 3x4 inch piece of paper. One side has a picture of the unit and some specifications. The other side has the warranty information and a very brief (one or two word) description of the buttons.
I don't actually find anything positive to say about this \"White Noise Machine\".
Update (2-4-2022): I thought I would give an honest attempt to use the \"White Noise Machine\" to aid in sleeping. Based on how I felt about the sounds while I was awake, I felt there might be one or two settings that might useful as white noise.
I was surprised. The two noise settings I thought might be useful actually weren't. White noise is supposed to be constant and consistent. Most of the noise settings of this unit have a lot of variability in both pitch and volume, making them totally useless. There was one noise setting, I would describe as crickets and frogs that did have more consistent and constant sounds. It reminds me of what my yard sounds like during the summer. As the result, I was able to fall asleep faster.
The volume settings on this White Noise Machine aren't sufficient. If you're trying to sleep in a construction zone, and you're using a white noise machine to block that level of noise, this might be sufficiently loud. I don't need it to be that loud. I only need to mask the pops and creaks that my house makes. I was not able to set the volume low enough. I had to cover it with a towel to muffle the sound as the lowest volume setting was too loud.
It's still unclear to me why this unit wouldn't come with it's own power supply. The specs call for a 5V 1.0A supply. Most of my older phone chargers are smaller, lower power. I was able to find one that provided 5V 1.0A. It's a good thing I kept that charger when I got rid of that phone.", "label": 0}

Also I have been wanting to try red yeast rice but hesitant as its potency all depends on the quality you get. This being an American company gave me hopes of the real deal. Now those who follow my reviews know my main deal is skin care and supplements so lets dig in.
Most of these ingredients I have tried in the past and I will discuss those first. My cholesterol was around 250. I Started taking supplements and got it around 220. I cut down on my carbs and got it around 200. So here is the thing in all honesty to remember. Some lucky ones can take this brand or that brand and they really have a 20% or better improvement. They are not lying. But that specific ingredient may not work for you. Especially if it was a fake or tainted or lower than what the bottle stated. Luckily for you as you have stumbled on this brand and it's a family owned American made product. And it's a fully loaded weapon for cholesterol. It's got it all. Just keep in mind each person is different and if you have genetic cholesterol as my Dr suspects ( as I am 59' at 155 pounds and eat like a rabbit) this can be challenging.
So with the ingredients I am familiar with ( as far a cholesterol goes) in extreme brevity here is what they do in extreme simplicity. And too with the exception of red yeast rice many studies say yes it helps and many studies say no ! ( I think that goes to prove my theory on the individual body make up differences)
Policosanols- reduce the stickiness of cholesterol and prevent the oxygen with reacting to make LDL. These are sugar fatty alcohols.
Phytosterols- They are so much in structure like Cholesterol they actually compete with it for absorption this reducing cholesterol absorption
Co-enzyme co-Q10- I take a ton of this and have been doing so for decades. It supplies oxygen to increase the metabolic energy creation process.. I suppose the theory is burning glucose ? It also protects the heart.
Artichoke leaf- It contains luteolin that prevents cholesterol forming and also encourages the body to rid itself of cholesterol.
Now the new ones
Guggul- this blocks cholesterol absorption ( lot a good studies on this one)
Chromium- This metabolizes carbs ( that have/lead to cholesterol) and also helps with depression from carb deficiency. Interestingly lower levels of Chromium lead to higher levels of cholesterol.
Last red yeast rice extract- Its actually proven to work ! IF it has monacolin k in it ! Unfortunately Big Pharma got involved so now some red yeast rice has none of it in it. I called the company and was told it does have some in it. And having some is of course better than none.
I must add too, most of these ingredients have helped people to loose weight. Some studies support that !
Warning do not mega dose as some of these ingredients could hurt your liver. The recommended dose is fine.
I have had no sides taking these and the capsules were easy to swallow.
So as you see, its a full deck ! And too our guys are getting killed by cheap fakes and misleading/toxic supplements from over seas. This is a family owned business from the friendly people in the great state of Texas. So yes all 5 stars for a formula (as they say in Texas) that aint messing around !

The Mia facial scrubber brush is way out of my price range, so I wanted to give this brush a try. The Brush itself is very pretty, pink and white, and is very light, which makes it easier to use. It came with 5 attatchments, a scrubber, a soft foam like sponge, a rough exfoliating buffer, a massager, and an incredibly buttery soft polisher.
I decided to try the scrubber first, and then follow with the polisher. I rinsed my face, and then dotted face wash on my fave. I used the scrubber brush on low and avoided my cheeks since the scrubber is pretty intense and my cheeks are very sensitive. My face felt tingly, soft, and incredibly clean after. I washed the cleanser off of my face and used the polisher on my clean wet face for one minute on low. It felt like heaven. My skin felt like I had gotten a real facial.
I gave my skin a rest for a day and then tried the buffer. I wet my face and dotted face wash on my skin. I only used the exfoliating buffer on the low setting on my nose, forehead and chin, as those are the least sensitive areas on my face. It was a bit too rough for me, even on the low setting, but I think that's only because I have such sensitive skin. My boyfriend tried it and loved the buffer the most out of all the attachments. He said it made his skin fell, "like a baby's butt." haha. I used the foam attachment after using the buffer, and I did like it, but I prefer the polisher much more.
I gave my skin another day of rest and decided to try the massager attachment next. I wet my face, dotted cleanser on it, and used the face scrubber brush first. Then with my face still damp, I used the massager on high. It felt a bit odd at first, but after I was done, my skin felt like it was extremely clean and refreshed.
I like the scrubber brush, the skin polisher, and massager attachments the best. When I use all 3 in the same session, it seriously feels like you have gotten a facial. My skin is clean, tingly, soft, and bright. I pretty much stick to those 3 attachments and use them 3-4 times a week. If I notice any dry spots, I'll bust out the exfoliating attachment, and it takes care of them right away.
The only downside to the ChiTronic 5 is that it's battery operated, so I can't take it in the shower, and I have to be careful using it around water. Other than that, its really surprised me. I was afraid that most of the attachments, especially the scrubber, were going to be too rough on my skin. It is MUCH softer than it looks in pictures, trust me. My skin is softer and more clear since I started using it a month ago. It feels like a nice treat when I use it, like I am taking time to pamper myself in just a few minutes.
In summary, definitely try this out before shelling out big bucks on the Mia, I am SO glad I did!", "label": 1}

Also all questions and the responses. I phoned Amazon four times and 10+ tried to phone the Nature Bell at 1-858-999-6857. Each time the recording said, the person you are trying to reach is not available, please try again later. Amazon attempted to call and the phone just rang. Amazon customer service stated they have no manner in which to contact naturebell. All I could learn was they have been a business for approximately two years. I read the information on Amazon as well as the attached label to the container. The first thing is the information is in conflict The label States a serving is one scoop which is 3 grams or a half a teaspoon. It states 85 servings. Then above their phone number it has the direction, take 2 scoops daily with meals. Is the label telling me take a scoop at one meal mean plus a second? The math with one scoop is 85 servings. With two scoops it is either 85 meals or 85 meals spread out over 42.5 days. They make statements that conflict with each other such as high in B-complex, C, E, high in proteins, and other listed ingredients. It is strange that the contents on the label have 2 g protein, 7% C, With two scoops, according to their label you will get 200% of vitamin K but is it K1 or K2. If you eat broccoli and spinach you already get a healthy amount and K1 and K2 serve different purposes. A number of customers make medical statements that are unlikely. The blood pressure reduction is an example. The neglect to include scoops as mentioned in questions is a source of both concern and confusion. If you also take vitamins there is a good chance they contain vitamin K. The recommended amount on the labeling is a total of one teaspoon per day (2 X 3 g = 1 tspn. But in the confused responses people are taking 6 times the recommended amount of powder or 1,200 % of Vitamin K + whatever they ingest from vitamins and foods. The label states certified by Organic Certifiers. Is that in CA? Amazon told me to use two teaspoons but that may be from customer responses. If it is from a purveyor that conflicts with the labeling. I am guessing since the scoop is 3 g that the missing scoop is 1/2 tspn. If we are to use 1 tspn why is the scoop half teaspoon? Is wheat grass Kosher? Why is the Kosher symbol U not used? Wheatgrass is not a fruit, meat, dairy product. How is wheat grass whole leaf? I am merely adding information on August 14. Prior to my review I attempted many times to call the two listed phone numbers but they don't answer or allow for a person to leave a message. I was able to send an email and have to think they received it more than a month ago. I base that on the email not being returned as undeliverable. I spoke to Amazon many times and they indicated they have no way of contacting NatureBell.
I went over all that I have said in my first mid-August review. More than one of the always excellent Amazon customer service people understood the math on the number of servings was half as claimed. I am surprised that Amazon as of this minute has it as Amazon choice. Based on sales volume or unclear and conflicting information?", "label": 0}

I grew up as a tomboy, and to a certain degree, I still am one. I wear makeup maybe once a year, more often if there is a wedding or other special event. So when I was asked to review the Lovely Lashes Eyelash Curler (or LLEC, for short), I figured that I would give it a try, just to do something different. So, without further ado, here is my review:
Construction
The Lovely Lashes Eyelash Curler by Izy Trends, in terms of function, is no different than other eyelash curlers on the market. They operate by inserting your finger and thumb into the handles; spread the arms apart to open the guillotine-style press that curls your eyelashes, and pinch the handles together to bring the base of the curler up to the top metal portion, closing the guillotine and pressing your eyelashes into a curl.
In terms of durability, the LLEC feels durable and is comfortable to use. It weighs in at 0.8 ounces (22 grams) and has a solid construction at the joints that appear to be able to withstand frequent use. The handles have a rubber insert along the inside of the loops so that your fingers and thumb do not press against the bare metal (which many other brands do, sometimes leaving a mark). Finally, the lower half of the press that is used to curl the lashes is lined with a rubber strip that helps the lashes to curl more gently (as opposed to eyelash curlers that have only metal, which can sometimes damage the hairs). The LLEC includes a spare strip should anything happen to the first one.
Usage
I have a disease called Sjogr\u00ebn\u2019s Syndrome, which is basically a more severe form of dry eye (as well as other mucous membranes). As a result, any type of mascara, eye liner, or eye shadow getting into my eyes is bad juju. So while I don\u2019t wear makeup, when I do I am limited in what I can use. An eyelash curler is definitely something that I want to keep in my arsenal, so I made sure to use the LLEC every day for three weeks.
Pros:
\u2022 Works best when the eyelashes are wet; immediately after washing your face or a shower is ideal.
\u2022 I was able to curl every eyelash, even down to the corners of my eye, with no discomfort.
\u2022 The curl on both eyes was consistent and even, so I didn\u2019t have to worry about a lopsided look.
\u2022 The LLEC cleaned up easily with no stains or other residue; I didn\u2019t even need water at times.
Cons:
\u2022 Manipulating the LLEC to the correct angle to get to the corners takes a bit of practice. While it isn\u2019t painful, it does require getting used to positioning the curler so that it grabs just the eyelashes without pulling on your eyelid.
\u2022 While the extra rubber pad is a nice touch, it is small and potentially VERY easy to lose.
Overall
The Lovely Lash Eyelash Curler is a solid product that is constructed well and performs exactly as promised. It is comfortable to use and includes an extra pad to extend the life of its guillotine-style curling press, and when combined with the Lifetime Warranty offered by the manufacturer, it makes the LLEC a great value. Whether you eschew mascara due to cost or because of a health issue like I have, the Lovely Lash Eyelash Curler will enable you to have eyelashes that will bring attention to your beautiful eyes without the price tag of expensive eye-related cosmetics. Just be prepared for all of the compliments!", "label": 1}

Due to past history of spinal injuries, and auto immune issues, Lyme Disease set in quickly with very difficult symptoms. After one cycle of Doxycycline it was better for about a week, then it returned with vengeance. Second round of Doxycycline didn\u2019t work and the next step with western medicine would\u2019ve been long term and serious antibiotics in both oral and possibly intravenous forms.
I came across this formula while reading Dr. Will Rawls M.D.\u2019s book \u201cUnlocking Lyme\u201d which detailed how various herbs work with both the infections and the symptoms with excellent scientific explanations. The herbs in this formula are all listed (minus stevia) but it\u2019s missing Andrographis if you want to follow Stephen Buhner\u2019s protocol which is also recommended in Dr. Rawls\u2019 book. I opted to start this formula plus andrographis while I was still finishing up my second cycle of Doxycycline. My body did go through herxing. Started with 1 dose per day, eventually increased to 2, now I am on 3-5 doses per day. When I was herxing, I was sweating profusely all day long. My sheets stunk of sweat that didn\u2019t smell like me. The sweat must\u2019ve been pretty toxic as my sheets also started to deteriorate when I wished them a couple times later. As soon as I started taking this formula, I could feel my brain functioning more clearly. I still got winded easily, but I was not exhausted to the point of dysfunction any more. It was a gradual process to recover out of the fatigue. And my physical pain also began to subside. My flexibility actually increased and got better than before Lyme (I lost quite a bit of flexibity due to my spinal injuries). This is because of the anti-inflammatory and immune boosting qualities of these herbs. But I still had swollen joints and pain if I ate too much starch/gluten/sugar/dairy. After running a test for rheumatoid arthritis and it came back negative, I started a gluten-free, low starch, low sugar and low dairy diet 3 weeks ago. In the past 3 weeks, I lost 8 lb. I have never been able to lose weight this fast my whole life. I have gone on similar food regimen before, and I was lucky if I lost 0.8 lb per week. I can see these herbs are repairing my internal system, and my body is absorbing nutrients differently therefore eliminating the need to store fat.
I started with the 2 oz package, and it was okay when I was ramping up the dosage. I ordered the largest loose powder package to follow suit, it looks like I\u2019ll be through with it in the next 2 weeks again. (I am dosing 3-5 days everyday). I dilute it with a small amount of hot water then mixed with a little bit of cold water, and down it like a shot. It\u2019s not pleasant but it\u2019s not intolerable. I also ordered the vegan capsules. For some reason I get constipated when I use the capsules, so I am sticking with the powder. But the capsules are very convenient when I need to be out of the house for a while.
I am planning on continuing this formula plus the andrographis for 6 months in the high dosage. I am not sure what I would do after. I am glad my body is healing. Hope this information is helpful.", "label": 1}

(1)- One roller is included with the product. It listed as extra course, so I was a bit worried that it would be too abrasive and that I might use it in such a way that it would make my feet feel tender. It was just fine. It is not nearly as abrasive as I feared. In fact, if your feet are very bad you may even want to consider ordering a replacement roller [refill] that is even more course.
(2)- I had thought I might need the cone shaped attachments that can be purchased as a separate accessory in order to do the area around my toes. I did not need them. The roller that comes with the product gets close enough and works fine.
(3)- Since the roller was not excessively abrasive, I decided to do my hands also. It worked great! I even learned how to get close to my nails and smooth the rough skin around them.
(4)- It is good to use lotion after use. I had considered the cream that the company offers to put on the feet after removing calluses. I did not get that, but instead used the Gold Bond Ultimate lotion that I already had and it works well for me.
(5)- The only reason I did not give the product a perfect rating was the cord. I thought since the information about the product said 'corded' that it mean the cord was made permanently into the product. It is not. It uses a cord that is similar to the type that would be used to charge a device and the portion that plugs into the electrical receptacle also has the same type end that almost every rechargeable devises have [not just the standard prong like for a lamp]. When I first received the product I thought perhaps they had sent me a rechargeable callus remover, but they did not because the one I got only works with the cord in it, as the product I ordered stated. The cord itself does not bother me because I knew it would be there. What has bothered me is that it sometimes comes out of the device while I am using it. No big deal--I can plug it in again, but I am concerned that over time as the cord comes out more frequently and is plugged in more and more, that it will be difficult to keep it in. But if it does, I will figure a way to tape it onto the device somehow. (5) A very important thing I learned is that it is best to put something such as a towel under your feet when using the product. Especially in your initial uses there will be a lot of dust!
(6)- I am glad I did not get a battery operated model. Not having to replace them saves money.
(7)- Even with the cord issue I mentioned, I am still glad I got the corded product because I can store it in a drawer out of sight when I am done with it. When I am ready to use the product it is always ready for use since it never has to be charged.
(8)- The cord that comes with it is about 6 feet long. For me, that is adequate, but if not, it could always be plugged into an extension cord. (8)- The product head can be rinsed under running water [do not immerse in water].
(9)- Taking the roller out is very easy. All you do is slide a button on the side of the product and remove the roller.
(10)- A very small brush comes with the product to dust off the roller. But after using the product a week, I remove the roller and scrub it with an old toothbrush using soapy water. I then put it on a paper towel for several hours to make sure it is dry before I store the product.
(11)- I love this product and I have decided that I won't ever be without one of these devices again!", "label": 1}

Let me start off by saying that I'm not a fitness model, trainer nor work for GNC. I'm just a regular guy who works a Monday-Friday job and has the weekends off and goes out and has fun. I don't eat a lot of junk but I love my buffalo and blue cheese along with some deli sandwiches. I do consume alcohol a few times a week and I'm a pretty social guy.
That being said, once or twice a year I'll purchase a cleanse to detox my body. I think it's a good idea for everyone to do this to clean out all of the toxins in your body from all the bad food you've eaten all year, alcohol intake along with all the drug and medications that you consumed. Remember this, to COMPLETELY detox your body, you will have to at least perform a 2 week cleanse. A 30 Day cleanse is optimal but please don't think an overnight or 2-Day cleanse is going to detox your body. That's incorrect. It takes time for everyone's body to flush out all of the bad toxins and start fresh again.
I honestly didn't have high hopes losing a lot of weight with this product but I did lose a little. When I started this cleanse, I was overall in pretty good shape. I lift weights regularly 4-5 times a week and perform cardio with my workout regimen. I'm 5'11 weighed 208 lbs when I started the cleanse. After the two weeks, I dropped down to about 203 lbs. So I only lost 5 lbs but that was mainly due to the strict organic consumption of food that I was eating, not the cleanse. I really didn't suffer from any side effects except for the second phase of the cleanse. If you read reviews about this product, many will state the same. It was minor and that was just your body reacting to the natural herbs of the cleanse. That feeling means your cleanse is doing its job.
Overall, the product DOES work. Regardless of all the negatives out there, you're going to find that with pretty much every single cleanse here on Amazon or out in the internet. Body cleanses outcomes are going to be different for everyone. If you follow the instructions for the cleanse and eat exactly what it says then you will see a significant difference. If you don't follow the cleanse strict nutrition and eat junk and consume alchohol everyday then yea, this product will NOT work for you nor any other cleanse. Its simple folks, follow the instructions for two weeks out of your life for a healthier you.
I gave this product 4 stars instead of 5 because the cleanse really didn't "Wow" me as I thought it would. Again, this product DOES work but I only lost 5 lbs and the Probiotic Complex dose should've been higher. If this product had the Probiotic Complex at 25 billion CFU's instead of 12.5, then you would see 5 stars there. If you're not familiar with what a Probiotic Complex is then I highly suggest you Google it and read why it's important for your cleanse or just in general.

For the first year of my job I had cheap scissors. I couldn't cut splinting material, clothes off patients or anything else thicker than paper. I've owned about 5 pairs of scissors over the last 7 years as a nurse and can attest to quality.
Princess Care Scissors:
These are great scissors. Just 3 days ago I cut jeans off a trauma patient. They cut like butter through the pant legs, the belt area that has multiple layers of material required a little more pressure, but they cut through it fairly easily. My coworker who was getting the other side was only halfway up that pant leg when I got done. After she asked where I got my scissors. I have used these for fiberglass splinting material and they work like a champ with that as well. I cut through a thick stack of post its as well for a picture demonstration.
Why trauma shears?:
In case you're not familiar with trauma shears they are bent for a safer, more convenient cutting angle. There is a flat area on the tip that sits against the skin, so there's little chance of actually cutting skin if held parallel to the skin. There's also no sharp tip that could puncture the skin. They are handy for first aid kits and anyone in the medical field or anyone doing home wound care.
Sizes:
These come in two sizes. The 7.5" is what I recommend for ER and EMS, it's what I'm holding in the post it pictures and the 3rd picture. It can accommodate my thumb in the top, pointer finger in the divot stabilizing the scissors and my last 3 fingers pushing to get a strong cut. The 5.5" are great for cutting bandaging and light clothes, it's what I'm holding in the last picture. It takes longer to cut clothes off since the blade is a little shorter and the handle smaller, which in a trauma or cardiac/respiratory arrest seconds are valuable. With the smaller one my thumb fits in the top, my pointer stabilizes them and my 3rd and 4th fingers go in the bottom loop. My pinky is free. This slightly decreases the force I can use in cutting. If you're debating sizes I would go with the bigger, but that's just my bias I guess. When I pull them out of my "holster" I guess I'd call it (a hemostat on my shirt with tape around the top and scissors put in the tape hole). The larger ones just go right on my hand, the smaller it takes a few extra seconds to position with my fingers in the right spot. .
Overall, I love these trauma shears. Out of all the sets I've owned these are tied for first place for my favorite. I had a pair of black on black that I loved as well, but I left them at work one day and they disappeared. These cut just as well as those. Remember to label your scissors! They get lost/stolen very easily and in work settings a lot of people have the same/similar shears. Princess Care sent me a few sets for testing and review purposes. I never let that influence how I rate or review products. I always use products and evaluate them honestly based on their quality and function. These are just great shears that are doing a wonderful job.", "label": 1}

The eye massager gives audible voice commands letting you know what the current program is being played at the time. You can also use the Bluetooth mode to play your own music you\u2019ve got on your cell phone or other supported device you might have.
The eye massager part that sits around your eye sockets and forehead is made out of silicone \u201cnodes\u201d that\u2019s \u201csuppose\u201d to feel good. I didn\u2019t find the silicone to feel comfortable at all around my eye sockets! To me the silicon is way to hard! On the outside of the eye massager you\u2019ll find a LED Screen that\u2019s pretty easy to operate. The screen shows your current working mode, heat, battery power, and Bluetooth or current music you\u2019ve got set up to play.
This eye massager comes with an adjustable strap to fit it to your head. The description claims this unit is light weight, However, it\u2019s Bulky as well as heavy once you\u2019ve got it strapped to your head/face. The battery life seems pretty good as it hasn\u2019t gone down much with multiple uses. The eye massager charges with a Type-C cable(included) which is pretty standard nowadays with a lot of items.
I had to adjust the head strap of this eye massager multiple times trying to find the best fit that didn\u2019t cause pain prior to even using it. In order to try to help take some of the weight off of my face while wearing this eye massager I reclined in my chair. Doing that does help take the pressure and weight off your nose but in order to obtain any actual pressure around your eye sockets you\u2019ve got to make the head strap tight. If the head strap isn\u2019t tight on your head the massage \u201cnodes\u201d don\u2019t even touch the area around your eye sockets! By making the strap so tight to even begin use of this eye massager, it begins with pain and discomfort before you even start using it, DEF NOT IDEAL!
Once the eye massager is on, you\u2019ve got to use a finger to try to navigate to the small button on the unit (which you can\u2019t see since your eyes are covered) to push to turn on the device. Once you stumble around to locate the start button and then press it, the massager will tell you what mode you\u2019re on. The volume for that function is LOUD! I was never able to find where, or if, there\u2019s a volume button to either mute that loud voice or at least turn it down! Then comes the \u201cbuilt in music\u201d or \u201cpeaceful built in sounds\u201d. I found none of the built in music or built in sounds peaceful at all. The sounds only play for a few seconds and then all you hear is the gears of the \u201cnodes\u201d turning and grinding, DEF NOT PEACEFUL!
I gave this eye massager Multiple try\u2019s to get use to it as well as to try to enjoy using it. After using this eye massager for the first TWO TIMES within ten minutes of being finished I got Bad Headaches! For the next Four Times of use over a couple of days the headaches weren\u2019t as bad after using it but I did still got headaches, that\u2019s def NOT Peaceful or Comfortable at all for anyone!
There\u2019s no way I could ever recommend this eye massager to anyone until there\u2019s some improvements to what all I\u2019ve mentioned in this review. I REALLY wanted this eye massager to work for me and I put myself through a LOT of Discomfort trying to get to that point, but my experience with this eye massager Never Improved at all! Also, the \u201cnodes\u201d left red marks around my eye sockets even when I didn\u2019t tighten the head strap much at all!", "label": 0}

Here's how I've been using the product. When I first received it, I had to mold the trays to my teeth. The trays are exactly the same as a sports mouth guard. I boiled a pot of water on the stove then dropped the first tray in for 10 seconds. I used tongs to get it out of the water, which was a mistake because the tongs cause the sides of the tray to fold over one another and mold together before I could get it in my mouth. They were so fused together that I couldn't even try to remold them. Luckily, they give you three trays, one is an extra just for this sort of mishap! I only left the next two trays in the water for 5 seconds so they wouldn't be quite so soft and was able to get a decent mold out of them. Not perfect, because I sucked them onto my teeth too hard and ended up sucking a lot of the plastic mold onto the roof of my mouth instead of the sides of teeth, but good enough!
I used the product 5 nights out of 7. I used about .5 ml of the whitening solution out of the syringe in each tray (so 1 ml total). I wore the trays for about 20 minutes each time and used the LED light for about 5-10 minutes each time. You have to hold the light in your mouth and I'm a habitual multi-tasker, so it killed me not to have the use of both my hands, that's why I didn't use it for the full 20 minutes. I imagine if I had, that I would have had even better results because the LED light acts as an accelerator for the whitening. After the 20 minutes were up, I just removed the trays from my mouth, washed them out with warm water in the sink, and rinsed my mouth out with cold water.
The trays feel very comfortable in my mouth. My teeth were not sensitive to the solution at all, however, it would cause my tongue to tingle if any dripped onto it. The only thing that bothered me a bit was that there is really no way to avoid some of the whitening solution seeping into your mouth. The directions say not to swallow any of it, so I was trying very hard not to. However, as I was salivating, it would wash to the back of my throat and I would ultimately swallow some of it. So I started just spitting onto a paper towel anytime saliva would back up in my mouth to avoid swallowing any. I'm sure if you swallow a tiny bit of it, it's no big deal, but I was trying not to.
My teeth have gotten very yellowed because I am constantly drinking coffee and tea. I have two small children, so caffeine is my lifeline. Unfortunately, it has been ruining my teeth. The Dreow whitening kit is helping me to get my nice white smile back and I am going to continue using it until my teeth are bright white again!
I would definitely recommend this product as it is easy to use and it definitely works!

He is at the point where he is supposed to be walking more and more each day. He has been cleared to do some of that walking outside in the driveway and even in the yard. It turns out that the thin 5" gray walker wheels that come on a standard walker don't work so well outside. I haven't had to use a walker before, but I gave it a shot and could feel how much the wheels bounced when they hit a little piece of gravel or a seam in the sidewalk. The grass? Disaster. The wheels sort of sunk into the damp ground and then I was stuck.
New wheels were a must.
I ended with these wheels from North American Health and Wellness. Unlike a lot of the walker wheels sold as "off-road," this pair had tread and was wider than normal wheels. Both of these factors are needed to make a significant difference in how the walker will handle rough spots in the road.
These wheels do come on standard 1" wide walker wheel attachment tubes. The axels on these wheels are higher than the regular wheels, so the setting for the tubes will lower than usual by 3 clicks. My relative usually has the wheels at a 7; for these, a 4. *** I don't think these wheels will work for a person whose walker wheel tubes are typically set at lower than a 4. *** They go on just like regular wheels. To make it easier to go through doorways, you may want to turn the wheels towards the inside of the walker.
The package also includes 2 of the biggest walker skis I have ever seen. We have not installed these yet as the physical therapist recommends staying with the caps on the back of the walker for a while. The skis are made of a thick, smooth resin and look like they will work well.
My relative has absolutely loved these wheels and finds them to be a ginormous improvement upon the old wheels. We don't think the tread makes that much difference as it is a fairly wide and shallow pattern that wouldn't get much traction. But the width of the wheels just gives him more stability, inside the house and out. Gravel on the sidewalk is not a problem anymore, and neither is grass. He also finds it easier to _stop_ on the wood floors inside the house, which I was unaware of being an issue. The material of the tires has slightly more give than the hard gray tires he had before; it must be just enough to respond to the exertion of pressure. However the tires work, he feels more stable and is happier about doing the physical therapy.
Do I recommend these wheels? Yes, if your doctor or physical therapist also recommends them. =-) I am not a doctor or a physical therapist or anyone else that knows how a change like larger tires on a walker could impact your or a loved one's physiology. Because I have not seen tires like this at any home medical supply company, what I would recommend if you want to try them is to just buy them and take them with you to your or your loved one's medical appointment. It will be easier for your medical professional to assess impact if they can see the wheels you're talking about and compare them to what you have now. And if they don't work out, you can return the unused wheels. There are other options that might work better for you or your loved one. This is just the pair that I ended up buying for my relative. =-)", "label": 1}

At the time I ordered, reviews were rather brief, so I thought I could review it in a more detailed way: basically the information I'd have liked to have known.
What does it do?
They claim it cleans, moisturizes, pats and pore reduces. In my experience, it is best used between cleansing and moisturizing, if you want to be super thorough about your skin care routine. I like to think of it as something that removes anything the cleanser left behind, and preps the skin for even greater moisturizing.
How does it work?
There are four modes. To paraphrase: the cleansing mode, the patting mode, the moisturizing mode and the icing mode. These are reflected as indicator lights (top to bottom in the order mentioned). Each mode takes 3 minutes each (approx) but can be manipulated by the first button if you want to get done with a mode early (pressing it will take you to the next mode). You are supposed to gently rub the device over your face with the bare, or cotton wrapped plate in contact with your skin.
What does it feel like?
You won't feel any of the first 3 modes, in terms of sensation but they make a soft brrrr sound punctuated with breaks: short pulses = cleansing mode, long pulses = moisturizing mode. The last mode makes the plate cold which reduces pores or creates a refreshing sensation.
What do you use with such things?
Firstly, you'll need thin, flat cotton discs or squares. These days they seem to be available even at local drug stores but you can order Korean or Japanese brands on this site.
For product: a watery toner, emulsion and serum that is slathered on that cotton and affixed on the plate with plastic rings (that they provide) or applied directly to your face. I am going to qualify that. For the first phase, a cleansing toner or micellar water works best, but use it after removing makeup. The second phase is the trickiest because you are supposed to use the naked plate directly on your skin and serums will absorb into your skin causing the plate to tug. Hence, instead of using it bare, I use product infused cotton for this phase as well(anything from Missha first essence to Vitamin C serum to a sample of SKII. Basically any liquid active will work.) The third phase is when you add a watery moisturizer, not a milk. I use a HA based watery moisturizer. Amazon has things like Hado Labo Goku Jyun water, Hera Aquabolic, or Skinfood lettuce watery toner. Basically if it says it adds moisture and it looks like water, it will work. Then you do the icing mode. Then you can apply the rest of your skin care routine: I just add a facial oil and call it a day.
Isn't that a lot of work?
That is the reason for the docked star. Not that it takes a long time, because they are upfront about that and it is silly to dock a star for the central premise of the product. But the process is not pleasurable. You feel nothing, so you are just sitting there rubbing this on your face for at least 12 minutes. The cleansing mode is a little gratifying because you will see all the stuff the Clarisonic left behind, but the rest of it? Not so much. These days I use only the cleansing mode, followed by two presses to the button to the moisturizing mode, and call it a day. Four minutes I can do and it has been wonderful for my skin. I don't know whether it is the technology or the prolonged contact with beneficial ingredients, but my skin glows as long as I am keeping it up.", "label": 1}

My first impression when taking this out of the box is that this is a well-built heavy piece of furniture/machinery weighing in at a little over 12 lbs.
With an overall height of approx. 6.5\" off the ground, it seems a bit of a \"stretch\" to call this an Ottoman. I am used to such pieces of furniture being much taller. My opinion is that this comes across as more of a footstool.
That being said, it looks like a nice piece of furniture, handsomely covered in fabric. When in use, a long cord protrudes from the top cushion. That cord can be removed and stored when you wish to make its functionality less noticeable to those who visit your home.
The top cushion of the Ottoman easily flips over, serving two purposes. On its flat Ottoman side, it's a simple footrest that provides heat and/or vibration. When you flip the cushion over, a more elaborate Shiatsu function allows you to slip your feet into sleeves for a customized massage.
Now that I have given you an overview of this Sharper Image product, let me dive into my impressions using the Ottoman and Shiatsu functions.
As I previously noted, this really doesn't act as an Ottoman. So, if you are relaxing in your favorite chair, this serves more like a footstool. The Ottoman functionality is not very exciting. It's basically a heated vibrating pad for your feet. A small button in the upper corner lets you choose vibration, heat, or both. I really don't see the benefit of having a constant level of vibration and a slight amount of heat being applied to my feet. If this were all that this Ottoman offered, this would be a big fail in my opinion.
But fortunately, there's more...
When I pulled a tab and flipped the cushion over to the Shiatsu side, things got more interesting. I slipped my feet into the sandal-like sleeves, turned on the power, and felt the rollers inside the unit provide an intense massage to the bottom of my feet. As this was happening, the sandal-like sleeves that cover my feet began to compress tightly and release. The combination of bottom rollers, and top compression in constant motion along with a little bit of added heat provided for a very soothing and relaxing sensation.
I must say, the Shiatsu aspect of this device is the most compelling. I think that it could probably do wonders for sore, tired feet. The motor inside is very powerful and as a result, the level of massage is very satisfying. Of course, if it's too much too quick, you can lower the intensity of the massage.
So, I have mixed feelings about this very expensive device.
It's certainly well-built. It's a handsome piece of furniture though I would not consider it an Ottoman. The flat side does nothing more than vibrate and provides a little heat (it never really gets noticeably hot). The Shiatsu side is quite good as it provides a really strong acupressure massage to the feet.
I almost feel you could spend less money and get something that's not designed to be furniture in order to get an equally good Shiatsu massage. However, if you opt for this Sharper Image massager you are getting an expensive, but solid product.", "label": 1}

It cost $2500 on sale plus delivery and warranty separately. When they delivered the chair they brought it in, put a few things together and I was like...wow I paid a lot for delivery but oh well. The chair itself was nice but I always felt like it was lacking. About 9 months later, now, I still didn't feel happy with the purchase. So I saw this chair for $799 with free delivery. It came from a company and yes they just drop it off on your stoop in a huge box. And you have to lug it into your house...we had to cut it out of the box and brought the pieces inside. I'm very healthy and so is my wife and this chair weighs about 250lbs. But for the most part it has wheels and you can wheel it around once you get it inside. I don't see carrying it up steps though. The thing is a pure beast of dead weight. I see people complaining and I dunno shipping was FREE....what do you expect? Go to a furniture store if you want it put in a room and put together, it will cost you three times this amount so stop griping. I've been there, done that and got the t-shirt. As for putting the chair together its not rocket science but the manual sucks. You'll figure it out though on your own. Just don't be afraid when putting the leg piece on...its really easier than your brain thinks it is when you look at it. Don't overthink it. Once in the chair? I can only give it 5 stars out of 5 stars because its every bit of what my other premium chair was lacking. It massages your legs, your feet, your forearms, your neck, your back, and it works your butt over like a Greek! The thing is amazing. Its the best massage in a chair I've EVER had and I've sat on everyone of these things ever seen in a mall or Sharper Image. If you want deep heat it doesn't have that but neither does my premium one that is supposed to blow hot air. It was enough to make every member of my family happy even the little ones who couldn't get the full effect because they are too short. So to all of the naysayers complaining about the delivery and having to put it together....what do you expect for free? The company is Factory Direct Warehouse, LLC out of Georgia and I got it in less than a week. They use a company called R&L Carriers which really does a great job - they just aren't going to bring the thing into your house and set it up for you is all. I'm nothing but impressed. On their website the chair is like $1000. If you go on eBay you can get it from their store for $799 with free shipping so shop around. But again, its low frills in that it doesn't have a zillion buttons on the remote...it still has way too many options for me to be honest...but it gives a great great massage. The only thing is it is heavy and you are going to need space for it because it has something called Zero Gravity - which should be called - Heaven on Earth and it literally lays you down in almost a sleeping position. And thats fine because this is the first chair....that put me to sleep. Don't look anywhere else...this thing is the bomb and I'm not easily impressed....now if anyone is in the market for a $2500 top of the line chair, let me know....because that thing isn't going to get ANY use now that I have this!", "label": 1}

I hope it will save someone from having to buy a bunch of different cushions for trial and error.
I bought the above cushions for my leather Lazyboy recliner because the seat cushioning has flattened over the years, but the recliner itself is still great. The Purple Ultimate is THE ABSOLUTE BOSS in a recliner. I sometimes do embarassingly long movie marathons on my days off, and can legit sit for 12+ hours with the Ultimate cushion. I have tried both an air filled RoHo and a Purap cushion in the recliner. Neither came close to the Ultimate. The Royal would probably work in the recliner, but I haven't bothered to try it because the Ultimate is just that good. My Purap was passably comfortable for about 8 hours in the recliner, but got destroyed because it couldn't hold up to the punishment of extended couch surfing sessions. I fear the same is probably true of the RoHo. The Ultimate cushion is amazing for this purpose.
Now let's talk computer chairs. I have lumbar, tailbone, and restless leg issues when I sit too long without the proper \"cushioning\" or alignment, so I use a Humanscale Freedom computer chair. Now keep in mind that the Freedom chair is highly ergonomic, which might make cushions act a little differently because it forces you to sit upright and aligned over the top of your hips (it's way more comfy than it sounds). This chair has a comfortable, but \"hard\" seat that slopes in the front where your thighs sit. I am also talking about extended sitting with only getting up to go to the restroom (e.g., extended computer gaming session). The RoHo cushion absolutely slays all other competition in a hard seat computer chair. I have been able to work all-nighters on the RoHo without any significant discomfort. The Purap was okay in my computer chair for about 4 hours (but would probably be fantastic in a wheelchair or softer computer chair). The Purple Ultimate was okay for about 5 hours, then the restless legs kicked in...I think it's because there is no downward sloped edge where your thighs sit. My lumbar still felt great though, so I guess it depends on what symptoms you're trying to minimize. The Purple Royal is definitely the 2nd best for my computer chair, but restless leg starts to kick in at about 7 or 8 hours.
So, if you are looking to cushion a seat that doesn't have much give, go with a RoHo air filled cushion if you sit for very long periods and your chair forces you to sit upright/have decent posture. Go with the Purple Royal if you have a hard seat and sit for very long periods but do lots of stand up breaks OR sit for medium-long periods without breaks and sit with upright posture. The Royal would probably also work in a hard chair if you sit for very long periods, but with more slumped or relaxed posture (e.g., aren't sitting right over your hips). If you will be sitting in a \"soft\" chair, the Purple Ultimate is hands down the winner, no matter how you sit. For long periods in a vehicle, I think the same rules above would apply, but tbh, I haven't actually tried, so am just imagining based off my experiences.
I hope this helps! :)", "label": 1}

I've recently tried Truvani Organic Multivitamin, which has a serving size of 3 tablets, similar to the serving size of 3 capsules for Nuvana rather than the serving size of 1 or 2 tablets like the other products I've tried. While Truvani and Nuvana provide different volumes of vitamins and minerals, however, Truvani generally provides less of each. The most drastic example of this is for zinc, of which Nuvana provides 15mg and Truvani provides only 1mg. But is this really a factor of 15 difference? I'm not sure, because the zinc provided by Nuvana is sourced from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a unicellular fungus, whereas the zinc provided by Truvani is source from an \"organic food blend\" of 12 ingredients. Another interesting difference in the supplement facts of these two products is the volume of vitamin A provided per serving: Nuvana provides \"1500mcg RAE\", and Truvani provides 375mcg. So what is \"RAE\" intended to mean? Before I looked up this term, I did some math using the \"DV\" (daily value) provided on the label for each. The 1500mcg RAE of Nuvana provides 170% DV, meaning 100% DV is 882mcg, and the 375mcg of Truvani provides 42% DV, meaning 100% is 893mcg. I've noticed in the past that daily values of many supplements aren't standardized, so I've gotten in the habit of ignoring most of this labeling, but in this case I was trying to derive what \"RAE\" might mean. In this case, it appears there are just some rounding errors, most likely due to what Nuvana claims, but the volumes are virtually identical. From some light research, it looks like \"RAE\" means \"retinol activity equivalents\", and generally speaking, this term can be ignored. The RDA (\"recommended daily allowance\" of vitamin A is reported as RAE to account for the different bioactivities of retinol and provitamin A carotenoids, both of which are converted by the body into retinol. Provitamin A cartenoids are plant pigments that the body converts into vitamin A in the intestine. Now, unlike Nuvana, which doesn't state the type of B12 it provides, Truvani explicitly states that it provides \"methylcobalamin\" (methyl B12), but unless you have the MTHFR gene mutation, you shouldn't be taking methyl B12. That said, the 12mcg of methyl B12 provided by Truvani is such a trivial amount that it's largely irrelevant: I personally take 3000mcg on a daily basis apart from my daily multivitamins. Combined with the significantly more expensive pricing of Truvani considering serving size and quantity of tablets provided in each bottle, Nuvana and Garden of Life seem to have the edge. I'm still on my journey to better understand the differences between synthetic \"isolate\" vitamins versus whole food vitamins, but the sudden unavailability of Twinlab Daily One Caps multivitamin I had been taking up until several years ago actually worked out in my favor because it caused me to start taking a closer look at supplement facts.", "label": 1}

My video review for this machine is longer than normal, which is sadly because I found a bunch of things on this machine that are just not quite right.
First, let's get one thing out of the way. It looks like it does a decent job of checking your blood pressure. So it is performing the basic function you bought it for, and that's good. It seems to be consistent in its readings, and when compared to the readings of a name brand unit, it looks like they are in agreement.
One of the nice things about this machine is that it can operate off USB power, so you don't need to always be changing batteries. However, if you don't have batteries installed, it loses all its settings after a few minutes of disconnected time. So in fact, you have to have good batteries in the unit at all times. And since the time and date are not visible on the display, you won't actually know if your batteries are dead or not.
It's really nice to be able to keep track of your readings over time. This unit has a time and date function, so it's kind of puzzling that it doesn't show them when reviewing past readings. Instead, all I get is a number, starting at 1, indicating which reading I am seeing. Not helpful! I need to know the date I took the reading.
And it would also be helpful to be able to delete readings - you might take more than one in a sitting, and you want to only keep the middle reading, but there's no way to delete individual readings.
Having audible readouts of your blood pressure is modestly useful, but the recorded voice has a very strong accent, which is not necessarily great for the US market - a native speaker would have been a lot better. The audible indicator is actually more trouble than it's worth when you are reviewing readings, it starts speaking every reading as you review them, making for a very intrusive experience.
The device supports two users, (and really, is there some reason why it can't be more?), but instead of making it easy to switch between user 1 and user 2, you have to go into setup mode.
To earn five stars on a product you really need better execution than we see here. This unit is okay, but using it will not be free of aggravation, and that's a shame.

I would rate this higher except for the fairly weak cherry flavor. YOu can taste it, but you have to search. The texture is excellent, and it tastes good, if not great. It's neither overly sweet nor ruined by strange aftertastes.
NUTRITIONAL VALUE: ASK AN EXPERT
I'm not a nutritionist, and it would be wise to analyze nutrition against your own physiology and need for this product, but here are a few lay observations. Total fat(4 grams) and carbohydrates(45 grams, including 18 grams of sugar from cane juice syrup and other sources) are basically comparable to many other similar products. These levels may be fine given how and when you use of the product (e.g., perhaps you practice \"carbohydrate loading\") Again, those who rely these for workout energy should seek the advise of a professional. You get a fairly good dose of nutrients with the added vitamins and minerals, although I don't know how absorbable they may be. Though probably not as healthy as fresh oats, rice, apples, raisins, soy beans, fruits, etc., this is probably better for you than several doughnuts or skipping a meal altogether.

SUMMARY
From a flavor standpoint, this is fairly good. While you get none of the unpleasant aftertastes, off-flavors, or bland taste of similar products, the cherry flavor was not strong enough. However, I enjoyed the coating of rolled oats and rice crips-it's crunchy, yes, but not so firm that your jaw aches afterwards. It also doesn't leave you incredibly thirsy like some other nutritional snacks. For those who like apple pie, the apple crisp in this line tastes better.", "label": 1}

IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL INFO FOR YOU
Whatever brand of supplements you get, always remember that any company that makes anything with dL-alpha tocpheryl Vitamin E could be making all their vitamins synthetically, and synthetic vitamins simply do not do anyone any good. The body doesn't utilize them, and they don't help anything. Just remember that Supplements sold by Health Food Stores and sites like the Vit. Shoppe are probably made from actual food sources, and Supplements sold in Pharmacies and Drug Stores are probably made synthetically.
Also remember: Large companies that make products from chemicals have a lot to lose if people start using products made from food sources that are IN-expensive have NO Harmful Side Effects and Really Work Very Well!! So, reps from those companies often post reviews with a lot of untrue information. When you see a radically negative review on a Natural Remedy made by a Good company, always check that reviewers' other reviews. If they have only posted one or two reviews, they could work for a company that makes synthetic products. If they have posted lots of reviews on different products, then they could be legit.
I have been studying natural remedies since I was about 19 in 1979, and I can tell you with absolute certainty that nearly any health condition can be totally improved with a simple change of diet and/or natural supplements, herbs, and other natural remedies. And these natural remedies have absolutely no harmful side effects 99% of the time. I have had several successes with it myself, seen dramatic improvements for others, and have heard many reliable stories over the past few decades.
In up to 8 years of medical school, doctors get only 25 hours of nutritional education. This is still true today, even though nutrition is vitally important to preventing some serious health issues, and alleviating others. For example the ONLY cure for Candida is entirely diet and natural remedies. And the only Real cure for diabetes is the same.
In addition to their lack of education in these matters, doctors are sometimes bombarded by pharmaceutical representatives to sell their pills (no matter how many negative side effects they may have). They even offer doctors big vacations if they meet a certain quota. And then nutritional remedies which absolutely do work (and with no harmful side effects) are put down by the media, while pharmaceutical pills get free advertising. This is getting better, but still occurs.

I read various reviews before I bought a \"shot\" and was mixed on whether or not to try it for myself. This past weekend was Daylight Savings coming into effect and I've been dragging my face on the ground at the office all week so far, so when I saw it at the checkout when I bought gas this afternoon, I bought one.
It sat on my desk for about 1/2 an hour until I couldn't take my lagging anymore and thought, \"even if it doesn't work, it won't do me any harm,\" so I opened it and consumed the tonic in the little plastic bottle.
Ugh, I must say, it tasted like liquefied chewable baby asprins, a flavor I will never forget remembering how much I hated it intensely when I was a child. I was not disappointed for long, though. At first I felt somewhat relaxed, probably from swinging my head back so quickly to guzzle it down, I was experiencing a head-rush. Then, I could feel a slight awakedness I haven't felt all week. And now, about a half hour later, I don't feel \"buzzed\" like I have from those energy drinks, but I do feel awake. Not bouncing, not hyper, not doped-up, just alert. What a great feeling!
[An hour and a half later note]: Still feeling good.
[2 hours later]: The same, cool!
[3 hours later]: I can't recall how tired I was this past week, I still feel great after consuming this 5-Hour Energy shot, glad the earlier part of this week is a distant memory, nothing like trying to function when you're tired and out of sorts. This stuff did the trick.
[5 hours later]: Still not tired like I was, but I think it is starting to wear off. But - NO JITTERS! And no cravings for more, like I've experienced with the energy drinks.
[6 hours later]: No crash. Thanks goodness, that's something I dreaded.
[7 hours later]: Not tired, but also not quite as awake as I was a few hours ago. However, if I had used an energy drink, I'd probably be reaching for another one after the usual crash. They say those energy drinks are non-addictive, but anyone who's ever experienced that \"can't cope-need more\" feeling is addicted, which I had and was to the RB for a whole summer last year. It took me weeks to get over the hump of those cravings, not because I loved the taste, but because my initial tiredness went to a whole new level where no matter what I did with sleeping more, eating better, etc., nothing seemed to perk me up anymore as it had before I ever tried RB. After about 6 weeks I finally felt normal again where fresh foods and the occasional coffee gave me a boost when I felt tired from working all day.
I am glad to know the 5-Hour Energy shot works for me. I suppose if someone is an excessive coffee drinker it might not work, or if someone has a slower metabolism, perhaps it might not take full effect. I say to anyone (except to sufferers of any heart conditions, etc, as noted on the label) to give this stuff a try when all you really need is to just \"snap out of it\" and wake up - not when you're cramming for an exam, leave it to those energy drinks and stuff for that sort of thing. For someone looking to just take the edge off of feeling dragged down, I think this is the best thing out there right now; two thumbs up from me!", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3629, "id": 95166, "interval": [700, 800], "len_words": 519, "len_tokens": 721, "text": "Because this old man has used lip balms since age 11, I can, at least, claim to be experienced. My use of lip balms serves a singular purpose: to prevent my lips from drying out and cracking (like many whose finger tips around the nails will crack, especially in the winter, if one does not keep the hands well lubricated).
To me there are three types of lip balms by texture: waxy - the traditional Chap Stick made by Wyeth; oily or greasy - Lypsyl, especially the versions distributed in Canada and Europe made by Lornamead; and those variously in between - e.g. Chap-Ice made by Oralabs. To me each has a place: waxy - maximum retention; oily - best for billing and cooing (youngsters may have to ask their grandparents about that one); and everyday use.
Apart from the texture, a second equally important characteristic is flavoring which yields, of course, flavored an unflavored (essentially) products. One question (or its variants) always on my mind is, \"Do I want to use an exquisite Pinot Noir as a chaser for my lip balm?\" No! Because I use lip balms round the clock, I tend to avoid flavored products that will contribute to the flavor of food and drink.
A third characteristic of lip balms is whether or not they are medicated; specifically, do they contain camphor, menthol, phenol, (e.g., Blistex, Carmex.) or, in the case of sunscreens, octyl methoxycinnamate (perhaps the most widely used sunscreen ingredient today, replacing PABA). I do not care about this characteristic one way or another except as it contributes to texture and flavoring as noted above.
I tried Chap-Ice because of its cost: at $0.64 per 0.15 oz tube it is the least expensive I have found. If \"1\" is greasy or oily and \"10\" is waxy, I would classify Chap-Ice at about a \"6.\" The Beeswax Lip Balm variety that I purchased (about which this review refers) contains: Sunflower Oil, Beeswax, Coconut Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Castor Oil, \"N&A Flavors,\" and Corn Oil. It also contains butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) which is a fat preservative. When smelled or first applied, there is an aroma - a flavor - that dissipates very quickly; it also imparts a slight warm sensation.
In a word, I like Chap-Ice. It has enough body (no so greasy) so that it lasts a reasonable length of time for me; the aroma/flavoring and sensation of warmth dissipate quickly so as not to contaminate food or drink, or otherwise be on my mind; and, at $0.64 a tube, it is an exceptional buy (after it arrived and I tried it, I went back to Amazon and purchased their remaining stock; no fear, however, they immediately posted that they would have a new supply in 3 days).
Nonetheless mindful that one person's food is another's poison, I think lip balm users will find Chap-Ice a most satisfactory, everyday lip balm. Given that it is not entirely waxy, I suspect that it would serve nicely for protracted billing and cooing; sadlly, I have no one my immediate circle with whom to test my theory.", "label": 1}

I've only had one complaint, they are all in capsule form, and even though not hard to swallow, I'm just tired of popping pills everyday. My brother had been urging me to try this Tangy Tangerine. So I finally broke down and ordered some.
I want to add that I had a Gastric Bypass 10 years ago, so I do not absorb vitamins and minerals like the average person, infact recently I have had D, B-12 and Iron deficiencies, which caused some big problems. Mostly, lack of Iron, but I have also been taking Andrew's Iron supplement everyday that has helped greatly. (I forgot to mention that above ) when this happened, it was a wake up call, so I got on supplements and take them religiously now.
As I mentioned above, vitamin absorbsion is a big problem with me, so the idea of a supplement drink made sense to me.
I have taken pictures of the Supplement Facts label of both products for comparison. The first picture is Andrew Lessman's label, and the second and third are Tangy Tangerine. As you can see, there are higher levels of everything in Tangy Tangerine. I am guessing it's because in capsule form, you may be limited, as compared to drinking the supplement. There are also important enzymes you need like Co-Q10 in TangyTangerine, that you have to buy separately in Andrew's line. And a big one for me, Potassium is in Tangy Tangerine, not in the supplement I was taking. Glucosamine and Chondrotin, is in this, not in Andrew's, again, you have to purchase separately.
Then there is the price to consider, and good vitamins and minerals do not come cheaply. I was spending on the average, about 100.00 a bottle for each supplement, although, that was a 1 year supply of each. So, actually, when I spent 60.00 for Tangy Tangerine, the breakdown is about 720.00 per year, with all the supplements you could ever need in the product. Whereas for Andrew's I was spending about 600.00 per year. I was not getting the levels in Andrew's that I am getting in Tangy Tangerine. So I say price wise, it's a toss up.
I have just started Tangy Tanderine, so I may have to update this review as to long term results. As far as taste, it's tolerable, just like the label says it tastes like tangy tangerine. I did not feel the extreme energy boost after the first drink like others have reported, but then I have already been on some very good supplements for a long time, so I may not be a good example. Someone who is not taking anything may feel an energy kick, I don't doubt that. I was not really clear on how much water to mix this with, so I took a bottle of crystal geiser bottled water, put it in the blender, added the powder and it blended up ok. I've read others saying they use half a cup to 8 oz of water or juice. I am now using 6 to 8 oz of water with a few ice cubes in the blender, and it actually tastes better with less water. The only sweetner I see in this product is stevia, and I do not mind that, but that is a choice you'll have to make.", "label": 1}

I'm 265 lbs. and this cane is rated for 300, but I'm skeptical if it really would support that weight. It's a plastic shell of a handle that houses the batteries and electronics and I can feel it flexing and making small crunching noises under my hand. Time will tell I suppose, I just hope I don't wind up on the ground. Other than that, I like the flashlight and blinking red light. They help quite a bit when I walk down my drive and out into the road to my mailbox at night. I wish there were a way to toggle them individually though. Sometimes I don't need the white light (full moon) but would like to have the red on for safety but that isn't an option. The first push of the button turns on the white light, the second adds the red to that, the third shuts them both off. It would be an improvement if the third turned off the white but left the red on, then the fourth shut them all off.
The alarm function, while I'm sure it has its uses, really isn't loud enough to help much, and my cats hate it. Oh well, it may come in handy at conventions... "Gangway! Old-fart coming through!" WeeeeeWeeeeeWeeee!
Update: So I got this on February 26th, and today is April 15th. 48 days. Still on the first set of batteries. That's how long it took to break. One side of the hinge on the battery door seems to have snapped, and the door no longer stays closed properly, causing the lights to flicker and go out when you least expect it. The plastic handle is also starting to split apart when I put my weight on the cane, causing it to pinch my fingers now and then. I'd send it back but it's just now worth the expense of the shipping and the cost of getting it to the post office to send it. (My truck gets 11 MPG and the post office is 25 miles round trip) It's a good idea, and I'd love it if it were better made, but I have to be able to trust it and it's not up to that.
Update July 26: I knew I should have gotten rid of this thing. I got lazy tonight, and instead of walking back to my office for my regular cane I grabbed this one in the garage to use taking the trash cans down to the street for pickup tomorrow. The thrice blasted thing broke on me as I was going down our steep driveway and I fell, banging myself up pretty good in the process. The handle snapped clean in two on it, right at the seam, and down I went. Batteries went one way, cane went another. I've got a nice gash on my hand where the plastic cut me that took a few stitches to close and I had to crawl on my hands and knees back up the driveway to the house. Took me about half an hour to do that with my bad knees and arthritis. I have half a mind to call my lawyer and sue, but I blame myself for not throwing this piece of junk away a long time ago.", "label": 0}

- BETTER SKIN, NATURALLY: Introducing the Premium Konjac Sponge by Aguder, the gentlest, most effective facial cleansing sponge ever. Made with the highest quality, 100% natural ingredients available, this sponge will turn your skin from greasy, oily, sensitive, and blackhead clogged to soft, smooth, and ultra-clean. PLUS it's so natural, you can dispose of it in your compost bin at the end of it's life
::This Konjac Sponge does exactly as described above! It's non abrasive so it doesn't leave your skin feeling scratched and raw but it does clean your pores like a pro! After one use, yes ONE use, I already saw a difference in my pores! I have large pores on my nose and you can totally see a huge difference after I cleaned my face with the sponge! It removed so much of the blackheads and my skin feels so soft!
BIGGER, BETTER, UNIQUE DESIGN: Our Premium Konjac Sponge is longer, wider, and thicker than most other sponges, giving you more control, a longer life span, and a higher quality product. The unique tear-drop design allows the best of both worlds - use the thin end around your eyes and nose, and use the larger end for your forehead, cheeks, and chin. No more crunching up your circular sponge to get into the tight areas
::The shape of the sponge is perfect! The rounded edges are perfect for your cheeks, chin and forehead while the smaller end is the perfect size for your nose and eyes. My eyes looked brighter and my skin felt so smooth!
::When you open the package, the sponges are hard and dry. They kind of look like rocks and feel like a dried up loofah. All you have to do is soak the sponge in some warm water and you'll see it expand.It gets a little more than double the size and feels so soft. Rinse or cleanse your face with water or your normal facial cleanser. The warm water will open your pores which makes for better dirt removal with the Konjac Sponge. Then place the sponge in your palms and press together to remove the excess water. DO NOT squeeze or ring out like you would normally do with a dish sponge. These are delicate and can last a few weeks in you take care of them. Then gently massage the sponge on your face. I do this in a circular motion on all of my face. I can only describe the way the sponge feels as rubbing a wet marshmallow on my face. I know that sounds weird but it's the only way I can describe the feel right now. When I finish cleaning my face, I place the sponge back in the bowl and rinse my face with cold water to close my pores. You will see the water in the bowl turn from clear to cloudy as the sponge expels all of the dead skin and dirt. Then again, gently press the water out of the sponge and rinse it under running warm water. Press again and hang to dry. Be sure to hang it in a well ventilated area. You don't want it getting moldy. It is made from a plant after all. Once it's all used up, you can simply throw it in the compost bin.
100% NATURAL, VEGAN, COMPOSTABLE, NO CHEMICALS, NO PARABENS, NO TOXINS

They are very big and soft and well.. poufy. I really like them. I feel like I am covering more area with these than I was with my older ones which felt less denser which in turn made them squish smaller while holding them. I'm not really sure if that will make sense to anyone besides me so let me explain. The other ones that I use to have must have been made out of something else or made differently. They were just as big if you compare them side by side to these, but when I would grip the other ones in my hand they would shrink to at least half the size as if the insides were mostly just air. These stay just about the same size in my hands as they are out of my hands as if they use more material when they make them. Anyway, since they stay bigger that means that I get done quicker because I cover more area at a time and I worry less about missing any spots.
~For Bathing~
The only thing is that when I use them to bath they don't exfoliate like the scrubbies I use do, so I only use these now for when I'm having a more relaxing soak or when I'm in a hurry. Part of me wishes that they did exfoliate so that I can use them all of the time, but the other part of me doesn't wish that because I love how soft they are and how relaxing it is to use them. I really like that it came with three because I really really don't like using the same thing for some of the same parts of my body. For example, I have one designated as just for my face, so that I don't use the same pouf on my face as the one that I use for my feet. Is that crazy or do other people feel that way as well?
~For Washing The Car~
When they first came in, something had gotten on my brand new car and these were at my finger tips so I used one to get it off really quick. Well, I liked it so much for cleaning my car that I bought another set. They are big and hold a lot of soap and water making them perfect for car washing. My step dad loves them for that reason as well (and I'm pretty sure that he stole one). He came over while I was using one and said that they would be better than what he was currently using for his truck (which he is obsessed with) and he kept on talking about it like he was hinting for me to give him one (I didn't because I was just going to buy him is own set). Next thing I know, one was missing and a few days later when my mom was over, she saw one and said something about how I was using the same thing that my step dad uses. AH HA! So, apparently these are so good that people are willing to steal them. lol
~If There Is A Reason To Update I Will~
I can't talk about how long they last because I haven't been using them for all that long, but if it's a significant amount of time I usually update my reviews. For example, I had a pair of shoes that lasted me way longer than the suggested length of time to use them and I update the review with pictures of how well the shoes still looked after all of that time even though I abused them pretty badly. And I updated a review of something that fell apart much sooner than it was supposed to even though I had barely gotten any use out of it. So, if you don't see an update to this review in the future, it is most likely because these poufs lasted just as long as expected.

This facial steamer comes with the steamer itself (which is white and gold plastic), as well as a power cord and a set of very detailed, and very easy to understand instructions. The steamer is lightweight, and 8.5 x 5.5 x 4 inches in size, so it's a bit smaller than most water kettles, and doesn't take up too much counter space. There is a handle on the top so you can move it around when it's hot (or in the process of cooling down).
With this facial steamer you can moisturize your skin not only with distilled water or purified water, but also with milk or essential oil. While I don't necessarily see myself as someone interested in trying the milk approach, I was quite pleased with how well it worked with both distilled water as well as distilled water with a bit of essential oil using the anther box (lavender oil was quite lovely!).
The facial steamer was quite easy to set up. You simply remove a small compartment on the back and fill it with your liquid of choice, then you screw the cap back on and replace the reservoir and plug the unit in. At that point there will be a red LED light on the front which designates that the steamer has power, but is not powered on. From there you simply turn it on using the power button on the front, and the the LED light will turn blue. It took about a minute for mine to heat up, at which point steam will start to be emitted from the nozzle of the steam outlet.
The steam will last for between 8 and 10 minutes, and initially you're recommended to only use this type of treatment a maximum of 2-3 times per week as you become used to it. The closer you are to the steamer, the hotter it will be, so feel free to stay back a little ways if it feels too hot or uncomfortable.
On top of the nozzle is a small sphere called the anther box. To use it, you simply pull the halves apart and place anther or essential oil on a cotton pad and then put the two halves back together so that the steam will be forced through the pad when it is in use. This approach works quite well, and keeps your essential oils away from the delicate components inside of the steamer.
This worked really well for my skincare routine, and so much better than opening my pores over a pot of boiling water! I usually wash my face first, then use this to help open my pores, remove blemishes, and then wash it again and apply a moisturizer for maximum absorption, and this facial steamer has definitely been an improvement to my routine.
All-in-all, I love this ionic facial steamer, and would definitely recommend it if you're considering adding one to your own health and beauty routine. Just be mindful that you read the directions and use it properly so that you don't inadvertently burn yourself or damage your skin.
I am a longtime Amazon Prime customer who writes reviews in my free time. I was appreciative to be given an opportunity to test and review this facial steamer complimentary for my honest and unbiased review.

I deal with hormonal acne & my skin marks very easily. I can heal any breakouts quickly but the resullting post inflammatory erythema & hyperpigmentation is my long term issue. Vit C, niacinimide, licorice root, alpha arbutin, & other things I've tried have all been beneficial but Im always looking for a better option. Microneedling, chemical peels, etc. have all been used, then I read about MSM. Applied tropically it can stimulate collagen production & cell turnover, replacing the inflammation damaged tissue with healthy clear skin. I add a scoop of MSM & a scoop of zinc oxide (for it's antibacterial & anti-inflammatory benefits along with it's other benefits) & dissolve it in aloe. I use a pure aloe liquid with only 1 other ingredient, a preservative. I apply the resulting paste over any red marking left from my breakouts. I find they heal much quicker when I use this mix. Applied to #11s or other tiny fine lines this can also be beneficial. My only issue with the MSM is that it does not dissolve as well as I wanted it to. For being water soluable, I expected it to do better in aloe, but just to make sure it wasn't the aloe, I have used water also. I had the same issue of just a grainy texture left after mixing. Even with that graininess though, I just dab the mix on any spots I have & they are visibly less red the next day. This mix, especially if you add the zinc oxide, is going to be white & won't absorb fully, so this isn't an \"under your makeup\" type of thing. I put it on at night & sleep with it on, wash it off in the morn. I often add a drop of Rosehip seed oil & Black Cumin seed oil to futher help with the healing process. If you deal with breakouts & the post inflammatory erythema/hyperpigmentation they leave behind & have tried all the typical treatments without a lot of benefit, then try using MSM. Taking it orally can also be beneficial, but applying topically will ensure that your skin actually sees the benefits. While so many products exist for hyperpigmentation, melasma & dark spots & they are effective; there is just not the corresponding same amt for red marks, erythema, so many deal with. Many of the ingredients that help hyperpigmentation by inhibiting melanin production, just do nothing for redness. Erythema, caused by tiny broken blood vessels under the skin done by inflammation, benefits from very few things other than time. Because MSM is anti-inflammatory it can help decrease swelling & help heal those red marks. MSM contains the building blocks skin needs to make collagen. Increasing production allows new cells to replace damaged cells faster. Because acne can cause pitting & indented scars, the increase of collagen productionn can help to fill them in. So while I specifically wanted to try using MSM for my red marking, if you also deal with rolling, boxcar or icepick scars; you may find benefits with MSM. It took maybe 2 weeks of use to see any results but cell turnover takes 28+ days, so your always want to continue a new skincare product for at least a month before passing judgement unless you experience irritation or other issues from it. So far, I've seen good benefits from using MSM. I'm hoping to see continued benefits for the foreseeable future.", "label": 1}

I went to my local Smarter Image and looked over the 3 demos they had in the store. But the thing that struck me the most was the air passing through was so gentle. And all I remember thinking is how could one of these ever do very much. I seen the commercials where the cigarette smoke disappeared in a sealed small chamber, but I don't smoke. And I didn't live in twelve cubit feet. I lived in an apartment, about 900 sq. ft. at the time. And units were kind of expensive too, about $300. So, buying two or three of those things were not feasible. Then new Air Filters started coming out, and each new Air Filter was clearly improved over the older unit. Then suddenly it seemed there were lots and lots of Air Filters on the market, all claiming to be better than the last, but each new one was plagued by one fault, they were ugly. And the prices ranged from $75 to $500, but how did I know if they worked. Then a friend of mine, who had a lot more money than me, showed me his storage unit in his apartment building, with about a half dozen vacuum cleaners, and nearly a dozen Air Filters. According to him, all of these did not work the way he wanted them too, neither the vacuums or the Air Filters. But one of the really cool things about Amazon is the customer reviews. Because if you thinking about buying something, you can find out what other people think about it, before you buy it. I only mention all of this, because I have never actually owned an Air Filter before. And my friend convinced me I never would because of all the units he had in storage unit. But I was able to surmise from everyone elses reviewing of Rabbit Air that this unit would actually work. So, I bought one, and it does work. It works really well. In silent mode it actually is silent just like the Smarter Image unit. But it also passes a lot of air, because you can feel it coming out of exhaust vent upwards. It actually is automatic, or you can set it to be manual and fixed in its function with a remote. What could be cooler. And it works. It works really well. I have only 500 sq. ft. currently. I'm retired. This one unit actually removes the odor from my apartment. Odor which I had gotten use too. And it even pointed out to me that I needed to clean the inside of most of my kitchen cabinets. And since I live in the equivalent of Tiny House, 500 sq. ft. or less. It cleans the air in my entire apartment, just one unit. Rabbit Air claims it will clean 700 sq. ft., but I don't know if that is true, having less than 700 sq. ft. But I know that the rest of their claims are true. And finally, it is not ugly. I have it sitting in my living room, proudly. I'm very happy with my purchase. And too people who think that $500 is too much, I remind you of my friend who had thousands of dollars invested in air filters, none of which really worked the way he wanted them too.", "label": 1}

I have never updated a product review after only a few hours to lower my rating, but felt honor-bound to do so in this case. What I thought was just an \"average\" quality product (3-4 stars) turned out to have a truly annoying flaw: the plastic on the lid is a major fingerprint magnet and, to make matters worse, the plastic itself has built-in distortions/defects that make it look really grimy. (I didn't notice the issue when I first unboxed the item during the day, but when I turned the lights on after dark, the plastic top looked like it had been passed around by a bunch of 4-year-olds who didn't wash their hands after eating birthday cake.)
It's hard to capture in photos, but I gave it a shot. Do you see that set of \"tire tracks\" on the left side of the lid? Those marks are distortions *in* the plastic; they literally cannot be cleaned off from either side. And all those smears and fingerprints on the rest of the lid? Those were left *after* I thoroughly cleaned the inside and outside of the lid with soapy water and a soft dish towel!
If you hate grimy-looking plastic (as I do), you should definitely avoid this product. I'm off to shop for a pill organizer with a textured, matte-plastic lid that won't show every finger mark!
---------------------------
ORIGINAL REVIEW:
Flexible large pill organizer, but nothing special
This is a generous-sized pill organizer with three interior boxes which can be used in a variety of ways.
However, since there are only 7 separate compartments in total, this would *not* be a good pill organizer for people who need to take different pills at different times of day.
Overall Quality: The plastic and the construction quality are slightly above average.
Price ($16.99 at time of order): Comparable to other large pill organizers
Size: I really like the overall size. It holds a lot of pills, but the overall footprint is small enough to be relatively unobtrusive on your bathroom counter or tucked into your top drawer.
Hinges: Like most pill organizers, there are no actual hinges on the main box or the interior mini-boxes; the plastic at the back of each box simply bends when you open and close it. The plastic seems to be good-quality, so I would expect it to last a long time before wearing out.
Open/Close Function: The compartments on the interior mini-boxes have little tabs to make opening them easier, and they have a decent click when you close them. The two clasps on the main box are average quality, close fairly securely and are easy to operate. I doubt the box will pop open unexpectedly.
Not Waterproof: The product description claims this pill box is waterproof. It is not. The main box has a one-piece silicone gasket which sits in a recess around the edge of the box. Submerging it for only 3 seconds resulted in plenty of water in the main compartment and also in a few of the interior boxes. This shouldn't be a major concern since most people don't intentionally submerge their pill box, but the \"waterproof\" claim is clearly a major exaggeration.
Bottom Line: This pill organizer does not stand out as above average, but if you like the overall size and interior configuration of the smaller containers, the product should last a reasonably long time.", "label": 0}

I have had dip nails done at salons but never at home. This was my first time trying the dip and after three weeks I can recommend this 100%.
If you don\u2019t know what to do or this is your first time watching a solid tutorial is a must. It helps clarify a lot of questions and it can also help save your nails. Nail career education has a good tutorial especially for beginners.
To start the kit came with everything it said but as someone who has used the kit I would recommend three other things. First get a nail e file. It is an absolute must and your cuticles/ hands will thank you. Once you\u2019ve applied the product, some areas will be lumpy and bumpy especially if you aren\u2019t the best or don\u2019t have a ton of practice so you will need to do a TON of filing. Filing is pretty much 60% of the process especially if you get tips. The second thing to get is acetone. You can totally file off the product but you could also compromise the integrity of your nail itself (plus it takes hours)so it\u2019s better to get acetone and work from there. Lastly get a face mask. If you\u2019re reading this during COVId. I\u2019d recommend using a scarf and not wasting your face masks or getting a dust collector. This product along with the filing and dipping releases a LOT of powder and it can easily get into your lungs which if you\u2019re like me and do your nails constantly, this could hurt you in the long term.
I would also recommend buying a separate clear powder as your base but if you\u2019re tight on cash this could wait.
The colors:
White- your standard basic white. Very pigmented and probably needs two coats.
Pink- the pink is a bubble gum color. Not neon but and more bright pink. Two coats should do.
Blue- the blue is a light blue. Not dark but not very bright either. Two coats does the trick
Purple- this purple is a lavender purple. If you have the lavender iPhone, this is about the same color as that purple. One coat did the trick
Silver- this is a glitter not a silver color. Depending on how silver you want. One coat leaves some spots and you can see the nail itself. Two covers it all and leaves no nail visible.
Gold- I haven\u2019t used this powder but it\u2019s a similar powder to the silver just gold.
Red- this isn\u2019t a true true red. It has some shimmer to it almost like a candy red. Two coats does the trick.
Some side notes.
The smells are pretty strong and they can make your eyes water so if you\u2019re sensitive and have no mask and eye protection be warned because it makes it hard to put on the product. I didn\u2019t mind because that\u2019s part of the process and it\u2019s normal but it could be a factor for you.
Step two and four are \u201cglues\u201d which help the product stay so if you leave them uncapped they will stick and make your life miserable if you aren\u2019t careful. Also on a similar note be mindful when applying because you could apply some of the product on the cap making them stick and impossible to wipe off so try to use acetone to remove and scrape off the product after every use.
When applying step two make sure to cover ALL of the nail because if you don\u2019t, product won\u2019t stick and you\u2019ll have spots missing. Again I\u2019d recommend watching some tutorials which will help clarify a lot of what to do.
Overall I loved this product. It stays on perfectly and looks beautiful. I loved all the colors and have even ordered more. It is a little tough to use if you don\u2019t know what you\u2019re doing but if you have an idea it shouldn\u2019t be too tough. I\u2019ve had mine for about a month and a half and have had no issues with chipping or anything.", "label": 1}

Therefore my 1 star rating is for this new formula. (4 stars for the original Chinese formula). Many other Chinese medicated plasters such as the renowned 701 Dieda Zhentong Gao pain-easing plaster also went that route, being changed to new and basically useless formula. Basically, many medical plasters for arthritis pain or relieving pain are now made of three main ingredient: camphor, menthol and methyl salicylate. They only provide temporary relief and IMHO do not justify their exorbitant high prices. Interesting, I ordered one can of this forgetting about this change and actually received one can of this in old formual that was made by Guangzhou Medicines and Health Products in China. I almost used all of them. The old formula is much better because it was made of 11 Chinese herbs that work much better and provide longer relief than this new formula. You may be lucky enough to get one with old formula from one of Amazon's market vendors (especially it they are located in China or Hong Kong) but that is no guarantee. Your other best bet is to find them in eBay. I actually believe the 701 (see above) that was made by Guangzhou Baiyuanshan Pharmaceutical Holdings Co in China is a much better and economical product because it is a much bigger roll at similar price and made with Chinese herbs (again ones sold in USA is in new formula). Better yet if you go to the TSEMPORIUM site, there are tons of medical plasters that actually work much better in relieving arthritis pain and muscle pain, just make sure they were made with Chinese herbs and not with those three ingredients mentioned here - camphor, menthol and Methyl salicylate (a few with exceeding high % of these 3 ingredients may provide with better reliefs but you would be at your own risk using them, be warned) My wife has very sensitive skin and she always had allergic reactions to these Chinese medical plasters made with Chinese herbs. Therefore, you should never leave them on you skins for more than 8 hours and should always check with medical professionals before using any of them. I myself found taking two of these Tart Cherry capsules everyday works magic for my arthritic knee :

I was not sure how well they would work, but they ended up working great and have the same brightness as my 14w CFLs.
Phillips usually puts accurate information on their lighting products (unlike many other bulb manufacturers). These are 3000k color temperature. Don't confuse color temperature (kelvin) with brightness (lumen). Incandescent bulbs are usually about 2700k, where daylight is 5000-5500k which is a true white light. That spaceship blue light you typically see with LEDs is about 6000k and above. 6000k is not anywhere near a natural light color.
A 60 watt incandescent bulb relates to the brightness (lumen) of a 14w CFL bulb. LED wattage does not have a direct lumen comparison to incandescent or CFL bulbs because the light emitting diodes in LED bulbs come in many different variations. The lumen scale is the proper way to judge brightness between all of them. Here is a chart for comparison:
40 watt incandescent = about 450 lumens
60 watt incandescent = about 800 lumens
75 watt incandescent = about 1,100 lumens
14 watt CFL = about 800 lumens
15 watt CFL = about 830 lumens
This Phillips (424895) 10.5 watt LED bulb = 800 lumens (180 degree light spread)
Phillips (409904) 12.5 watt LED bulb = 800 lumens (330 degree light spread)
Phillips (423244) 10.5 watt L-Prize LED bulb = 940 lumens (330 degree light spread, close to 70 watt incandescent equivalent)
At the time of this writing, a 10.5 watt LED that puts out 800 lumens, like this bulb does, is pretty darn good.
I am not sure if these bulbs are rated for outdoor use, but I have them installed outdoors where my non-outdoor rated compact florescent light (CFL) bulbs were installed. Both the CFLs and this LED light have worked great in our northern temperature ranges of 90 degrees to -3 degrees Fahrenheit. We also have high humidity.
I have these bulbs set up on an automatic timer switch. It leaves the lights on for about 9 hours a night for 7 days a week. Even in the cold, they light-up instantaneously; where the CFLs needed about 15 minutes to get at full brightness. My CFLs lasted for 4 years in this environment, so I hope these LED bulbs will last for 6 to 7 years.
The size of this LED bulb is perfect as an incandescent replacement because it is the same size.
The only negative I have about these bulbs is the narrow spread of light. Because of the long base, it leaves only half of a dome to disperse light to only about a 180 degree angle. I would prefer a 300 degree spread to shed more light around the area. If you want a greater dispersion of light, then get the other kind of Phillips bulbs since they are designed with more rounded domes:
[[ASIN:B007RKVT4C Philips 423244 10-Watt 60-Watt L-Prize Award Winning LED Light Bulb]]
[[ASIN:B00APTS030 Philips 425264 12-watt A19 LED Household Daylight Light Bulb, Dimmable]]
I bought these on sale for about $27 a pair, so I am very happy with them for the price. I really like their performance in my outdoor setting, so I will buy more for the other fixtures.
I would have given it five stars if it had a wider spread of light. 4.5 stars is more appropriate.", "label": 1}

Nothing we did helped. If he was in the car for more than 10 minutes, he'd lose it. When he turned 2, we started him on Dramamine. The Dramamine has worked for years, but it's not exactly convenient. It takes an hour to kick in for him before he can get in the car, or he'll throw it up. And he needs it every 3.5-4 hours, instead of the usual 4-6 hours, so he hits his daily limit faster than normal. And they are DISGUSTING, so it can be a battle to even get him to take them.
He's now 9 and that's been our routine for 7 years. I saw these things and figured they were worth a shot since we've tried everything else.
Today we took a 1.5 hour drive to a nearby lake for a day in the sun. He put these glasses on (along with a pair of Seabands on his wrists) and we hit the road. By the 30 minute mark, I became cautiously optimistic. By the hour mark, I became hopeful. And when we pulled into the park, I was in shock. He hasn't made a trip like that without puking unmedicated since he was 6 months old!!
For the trip home, I feared it was a fluke. I spent the first half hour expecting his usual \"uhoh, I need to throw up\" followed by instantaneous vomit. But no, he was drifting in and out of consciousness due to exhaustion from swimming for hours. At the hour mark, I got excited. He was awake at that point and calmly staring out the window. And when we rolled into the garage, I could have cried with joy. 3 hours of driving within 12 hours, completely unmedicated, and not even a funny tummy.
I don't honestly know if it was the Seabands, these glasses, or a combination of the two, but I know I'll be buying more sets so there is a \"kit\" in every vehicle.
This changes how we live our lives. We can be spontaneous and just go places. I don't need alarms to remind me to give him his next dose. I don't need to worry about forgetting to buy more when he's running low. And he doesn't need to stomach those nasty pills anymore.
We are planning an 8 hour drive to Disney World this winter and I was incredibly worried about how it was going to work with him. Plus the rides! Now I'll just put a band on these glasses so they don't fly off and he can wear them on the rides that could cause him to get sick. The relief I feel is unbelievable.
TRY THESE!! I know they don't work for everyone, but for our family, they are a blessing.
I will say, my ONE criticism is that they come in that case that is pictured, but they are shoved in there so tightly that the frames are bent at a wonky angle and can pinch the nose a bit. They are more concave then straight. I've been trying to bend them back and the kid says he can do the same when they start to feel pinchy and it helps for awhile, but I do wish it wasn't an issue because these things are a godsend. This issue isn't bad enough to stop me from buying more though!!", "label": 1}

Lowered appetite (Will this lead to weight loss? Too soon to say)
Less desire for sweets
Beautiful skin!!! (It took about 5 days until I really started to see the skin benefits.)
Healing of acne and skin issues (even on parts of the body that I don't put the cream on.)
Sleep very well at night
Waking up refreshed in the morning often before my alarm clock with no tiredness.
Greatly lowered anxiety.
Mood more stable and relaxed
Been in a good mood all week.
Slight improvement to concentration
Slight improvement to vision
Dried cracked feet are healing
I see a few new hairs coming in on my scalp (dark and thick) - too soon to say but hoping this will help with my thinning hair issues.
Reduced PMS symptoms
My neck, shoulders, back, and knee joints feel more flexible and I have more range of movement. (Haven't felt this pain-free and relaxed since I was a teenager.)
Negative side effects:
My thyroid swelled up so it felt uncomfortable to swallow. (Taking Selenium stopped this side effect.)
Mild runny nose. (This went away after day 2.)
Increased need to drink water. If I don't drink water when needed, it makes me cough.
Increased trips to the bathroom to get rid of water. (Averaging about once every 1-2 hours)
Some mild headaches (Had about 3 this week. Pretty mild and did not last long so did not have to take pain relievers.)
I looked up other experiences online of people who take Iodine and those mild negative side effects are normal. That's where I found out how important it is to ensure you're getting some Selenium also while taking this product if your diet is not naturally high in selenium. The side effects have been mild and the positive benefits have been way beyond what I expected so I plan to keep taking this product. Please do your own research. If you already have a diet high in Iodine (which is rare but possible) then this would not be a beneficial product for you to take. Iodine and Selenium are needed in your diet but they can be overdosed on which has bad health effects so do your research and never take more than the recommended amounts on the product containers. Be careful and discuss it with your medical professional.
I've been using this Iodine cream per directions on the label for 1 week now. This is powerful stuff so do not use more than recommended. I also take it with 100 mcg of Selenium (L-selenomethionine) which for me stopped a couple of negative side effects at the beginning so if you have any side effects consider adding a little Selenium. I also take a very expensive high-quality multi-vitamin with minimum RDA of Iodine and Selenium however I've taken those for years so am sure they are unrelated to the positive benefits I've seen on this product. Nothing else has changed in my life other than taking this Iodine cream and some added Selenium so all the good effects are from taking this product.
I paid for this product with my own money. Haven't received any free products from the sellers. If I continue to see more positive effects or any negative effects, I'll try to remember to come back to update this review.", "label": 1}

The reason I picked this one over the others is that it is not too big to easily carry on my keychain AND not too small to carry some bigger pills. It also looked durable.
Pros:
This thing is about half an inch longer and around 1/5 of in inch wider diameter than the keychain pill container you can pick up at CVS. And that is a very good size for those of us who have to carry around larger pills. I can now carry four or five of the larger pills with me instead of two, and there's still room left over for about four or six medium sized pills or even more small pills.
The slightly larger diameter is great too. My old CVS pill carrier lid happened to be the exact perfect inner diameter to sometimes get an average sized gel capsule stuck inside it. The pill would often be stuck so tight I would have to dig it with my keys, which would occasionally break the capsule, causing tiny spheres of medication to go everywhere. Yuck!
But that's not the case with this pill carrier! No capsules or pills stuck in the lid, at least no pills that I take.
It also feels nice and solid. I have dunked it in the sink enough times to be confident it is waterproof.
So, why only four stars?
Cons:
The main issue: the way the top is threaded is a bit subpar, at least with the one I got, which I don't know is typical.
When screwing the lid back on it's a little bit of a hassle to line the lid up perfectly with the body to get the threads started. Also, the threads squeak and sometimes bind, making me paranoid I'm cross threading the lid. A little olive oil on the threads mostly took care of the squeaking and binding. I'm not sure how often I'll have to re-apply to keep the threads feeling kinda-sorta smooth with only a few squeaks.
***** BTW, if you lube the threads like me DO NOT use WD-40 or some other oil not safe for consumption. Non food oils will no doubt "work" better, but no matter how carefully you apply that oil some if it is going to end up on your pills, and then in you. *****
Overall, I'm concerned that sooner or later I'm going to screw up this pill carrier by cross threading the lid.
Maybe the lid thread issue has to do with the titanium metal-- though I doubt it.
Maybe I just got one with improperly machined threads.
Also, the lid's O-ring looks really thin. It could be fine and last a good long while, or it could end up tearing after a few months of regular use. I don't know, having had the canister for only a couple of weeks. I'll probably post a follow-up review six months or so from or this posting. If the O-ring does tear, I hope I can find another at a hardware store.
Finally, I wish this pill container was just a tiny bit larger still-- say 5 or 6 mm longer and maybe an extra 2 or 3 mm in diameter. That would be make it enough to make it even more useful while still not so large it would be a hassle to keep on my keychain. With the current size I can ALMOST-- but not quite-- fit six of my large pills along with six of my medium capsules in it. If I could do that it would be perfect for me as I have to take two of both kinds of pill with my meals, and sometimes I have to be on the go all day.", "label": 1}

Was VERY UNHAPPY with the company when trying to set up service and to activate. When I first received the unit, I tested the unit following the directions in the booklet. A recording said that the device had successfully connected and the device was working. (see video). I had not even activated the unit yet. When I called to activate, I asked about the recording and was told that if it was actually connected I would have been connected to a real person - that the unit was not working (even though the recording said it was). I felt the recording was VERY MISLEADING - if my mother had tested it, she would have thought it was connected and working and would have thought she did not need to call to activate it - this could have been a matter or life and death if she tried to use it during an emergency and it wasn't even connected. After giving my and my mother's information over the phone, I was told the unit would be activated in 20 minutes, and I could test it then. When I tested it, I got the same recording, saying it was successfully connected and working. However, no person ever came on. I tried pushing the button for assistance (as if it were an emergency) and the unit said it had not been activated.
I then called customer service and was told it WAS activated and to try the test again. I did so while the representative was on the line - and he was able to hear the recording saying it was successfully connected and working. However, it was NOT activated and working as no live person came on the line. He put me on hold for a minute and then came back and said it was NOT yet activated, but the activation was pending. I told him the other representative had told me activation would take place in 20 minutes, and this representative then told me it would take 24 - 48 hours to activate!!!! So basically the unit was useless at that point. Also, I had been told so much incorrect information at that point that I was ready to cancel the service. I decided to wait until the unit was activated to see how it worked. IT DIDN'T! After 24 hours, I tested the unit again, and it said that the cell service was not good and a connection could not be made. I moved to another location in the house and tried pushing the button as if it were an emergency. I got the same recording saying the cell service was not good and to try another location. About 3 minutes later, while I was in the same location, and without pressing the button again, a live representative came on the line asking if I needed assistance.
During the activation of the device, I was given different information and incorrect information. Then once the unit was activated, it did not work and then did work when I was in the same location. There were so many things wrong with this entire process, from the first message saying it was working (when it wasn't) to the misinformation about whether the unit was activated and how long it would take, to the actual unit not working when the button was pressed. I would never trust this unit as an alert system for my mother or anyone! A person could push the button and lie there dying while waiting for \"assistance\" that they thought was on the way - while the entire time the system wasn't even working! I am returning this unit and canceling the service!", "label": 0}

Above all, be gradual. Do not suddenly take a lot at once!)
There are a lot of natural pills available for blood sugar control. I do not have a medical condition but I get sugar-shocked very easily and have tried most natural supports. Pills are convenient and helpful, perhaps more important than making teas because you are more certain to take the pills daily. However regardless of your level of discipline, there is a special feeling from taking fresh tea made from fenugreek or neem--whether daily or occasionally.
Also note that some natural supports for blood sugar may cause heavy-handed lowering of blood sugar levels. This is not the case with neem or fenugreek. In mild doses at least, these can be equally helpful for high or low blood sugar. And hypoglycemia or \"low blood sugar\" is now recognized to be a pre-diabetic phase, which perhaps is more accurately described as \"irregular blood sugar.\" Hypoglycemics and diabetics both need to cut down on sugar and sugar sources including sweet fruits.
And blood sugar control is key to just about every health condition and health maintenance. According to holistic neurologist Dr. South the more sugar in the blood the less energy reaches the eyes and brain, due to the excessive insulin which may produced but for which there is insufficient reception.
I.e., everyone who is getting older is getting less efficient at handling sugars and more susceptible to mild or severe complications related to glaucoma, diabetes and dementia--all directly related to blood sugar control.
On the other hand, a lot of people tend to emphasize one thing only for blood sugar control, like cinnamon, which is good but can be harsh in large doses. It makes sense to take moderate doses of a number of different things. This gives you added \"synergy\" as well as reducing the effect of the \"law of diminishing returns.\"
However I am not going by scientific data so much as by the special feeling I get when occasionally taking neem or fenugreek tea. These can be taken alone or with mild novelty teas such as \"lemon zinger.\" However I find that it is best not to mix several sugar-control herbs such as neem, fenugreek or cinnamon. Also you really should try this alone to get the feel for it.
Neem is bitter and several ayurvedic sources suggest to boil it which makes it ghastly. I really find it is best just to drop 1-2 teaspoons in a cup, add boiling water, steep and drink. This is bitter but you will not only get to tolerate it, but to enjoy it for the feeling of calm it gives you after, which can perhaps be described as the exact opposite of \"sugar shock.\"
Neem is also a great flu-chaser. As you probably know, neem has so many benefits that it is called \"a pharmacy in a tree.\"
Fenugreek is available in tea bags. ([[ASIN:B001GCTU4I Click here for Alvita Tea Bags, Fenugreek Seed, 30 tea bags (Pack of 3)]].) However Neem is only available as a loose leaf. The ideal of course is for it to be organic. This is the good stuff but drink it don't smoke it.", "label": 1}

The first thing you notice when you take it out is the build quality and aesthetics are exquisite. It seems really solid and well made, with a smooth glass top that would fit in elegantly with any bathroom. They're available in black and in white. I actually wanted the white more, but the rounded spots where you put your feet are actually off-white, like a cream color - which you can't see in any photo on the site but is really apparent in person. You can see it a bit in this photo: [...]
Also, the digital display on the white one is a cheap-looking black-on-grey that just smacks of 'original Gameboy', compared to the sexy light blue-on-black of the black model.
Setting it up was an exercise in futility. After 40 minutes of trying, I was ready to pull my hair out.
First off, know that YOU CANNOT SET IT UP WITH A WIRED COMPUTER. If you're hooked up via an ethernet cable, you need to switch to a wireless device like a laptop, tablet, smartphone, or newer desktop with wifi. This is because you'll be asked to switch from your regular wifi network to a temporary \"Aria\" wifi network (the scale itself acts like another computer in the network), and then back again. I wish this weren't necessary, but since I got the thing to interact with my smartphone it wasn't a huge deal.
From my Android smartphone, I navigated to the setup page on the Fitbit website and followed the simple, direct instructions on the site PRECISELY. I did this many times. I can connect to the Aria wifi network in my smartphone wifi settings, but NOT in the list of available networks on the scale setup page. The scale itself reads \"networks detected\" at first, and finally \"wifi err\". I should note that my wireless network works perfectly with my Chromebook, smartphone, and my housemates' devices.
I tried many things which didn't work. Finally, I contacted Fitbit. They got back to me in under 24 hours, which was nice, and let me know that it was pretty cut and dry: \"wifi err\" on the device means a hardware malfunction; there is no ambiguity there. The nice support agent gave me two options - I could return the unit myself and get a new one at the Best Buy I purchased it at, or I could keep my current scale and they'd mail me a new one, free of charge. I thought that showed great integrity and customer service, although it should not have happened in the first place. I asked whether this happens a lot with these scales and he said \"much more than you'd think\".
Why not just use the scale for my weight and body composition, you ask? Without saving your user profile to the scale - which requires communicating to the Aria servers - it only gives you your weight and says you're a Guest user. A $20 scale can show my weight just the same.
CONCLUSION: First impression was great, except I got a lemon. I can't draw a fair conclusion as I don't know how many units are broken out of the box.

I still love this stuff!! I take it every day still and probably will until they figure out a way to fix the histamine intolerance permanently.
As I stated in original review I use a lot, I still do, but it works for me and I am worth it. My sanity is worth it. It does not work on food allergies, it works on histamine intolerance.
I'll state again, the best advice I can give is to check with your doctor first. They may not narrow it down immediately, but they can eliminate some things. I got lucky in that my doctor has the same problem and she told me to try this. I wouldn't have if she hadn't told me to.
-------------------------
Love this stuff! As I've gotten older, I've found that foods I have eaten all my life, are now causing problems. My problems were hives. Chocolate, tomatoes, bananas, peanut butter, hot dogs, parmesan cheese, and so much more. I didn't know what the heck was going on. I knew I had latex allergies, but these new problems had me stymied. I was at the doctor for an unrelated problem, and casually asked could I now be allergic to certain foods, because I had done some home testing because of hives I started getting. My doctor recommended Daosin to try, it was something she herself took for the same problem. Told me to read up on histomine intolerance. She takes 3 before bedtime, and it works for her. I tried that, didn't have great result. So, I tried per instructions on bottle. A little better, but still had problems. So I tested. For me, I have found taking 1 in the morning when I wake up, and then 1-2 each meal, depending on what I am eating (if tomato based- I always take 2), sometimes nothing. It's not cheap, but for me it is absolutely worth every penny. I got hives on a daily basis. I am ecstatic to say I have been hive free for 3 months now. It took me about a solid week and half to notice any difference. This seems to be a good balance for me. And if I want a Mountain Dew or to eat a handful of peanuts, or maybe grab a tomato just picked off the vine to snack on, I take an extra pill (they are actually capsules) and I am good to go. Absolutely, being able to eat the foods I want to is awesome. But I can do that by taking Benedryl (dye-free). The greatest difference is, with Daosin, I don't go to sleep. One Benedryl knocks me out. I am thrilled my doctor told me about Daosin, I just wish I had asked sooner, could have saved myself a couple of years of misery. As I said, it's not cheap, I go through anywhere between 2-3 bottles a month. But I am worth it and my sanity is worth it. No more hives, no more wanting to skin myself with my fingernails because of the itching. Amazing. I'll be honest, no way would I have even tried this if my Doctor hadn't recommended as well as told me she herself took it. Natural or not, I am biggest weanie when it comes to taking medicines, especially if I've never heard of it before. ;-) Talk to your doctor, get their advice. That's my tip before you try anything.", "label": 1}

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It causes pain and inflammation that runs across the bottom of your foot and connects your heel bone to your toes. It's aggravated by long periods of standing or after getting up from a seated position. It is also common in runners and overweight people.
My BFF is a runner, part-time photographer that walks around A LOT, in addition to working at a desk job. He complained of constant heel pain while we went out on our runs. So as a BFF, I did some research and find several foot compresses that help alleviate the pain caused by plantar fasciitis. I came across the Plantar Fasciitis Therapy Wrap by Neo Compress and was impressed by the description online. I immediately ordered them so he could give them a try.
Upon receiving them, I noted they looked very small out of the packaging. I was concerned they may not fit him. However, they stretch to fit. He immediately tried them on and kept them on throughout the day. He even went on a run using them.
According to my BFF, the Plantar Fasciitis Therapy Wrap by Neo Compress felt really nice on the feet. They were easy to put on and comfortable. They have a perfect amount of tightness while providing tons of support. The material feels breathable. He really liked that his toes were open. He said his feet don't get hot because his toes aren't covered up. He pretty much forgot he had them on.
His feet do not swell like they used to and don't feel achy. They helped keep the arch supported reducing the pain on his feet. The nice thing about these compression sleeves is that they can be worn alone while at home or under socks while running or just out and about.
Benefits of wearing the Plantar Fasciitis Therapy Wrap by Neo Compress:
* Alleviates foot pain, while providing ankle and heel arch support
* Provides the perfect level of support to every region of the foot
* Offers sturdiness and stability to your foot with a snug fit, while still allowing for full range of motion.
* Improves flexibility and endurance for runners and athletes
* Promotes quicker muscle recovery, better oxygen circulation helps reduce lactic acid build up.
* With shock absorbent support, these heel protection prevents heel spurs and plantar fasciitis.
* Comfortable design, providing open toes to keep sweat away and feet dry and cool
* Versatile, can be worn alone or under socks
* Breathable, produced with anti bacterial material to reduce odor and itch
* Machine washable
* Great value
The compression foot sleeves seem to be made from good quality material and appear to be durable.
Although I received these Plantar Fasciitis Therapy Wrap by Neo Compress at a discounted rate in exchange for an unbiased honest review, this doesn't affect my five star rating for it. I rely heavily on reviews before buying products so I personally like to be honest when reviewing items myself! Given the review provided by my BFF, I would recommend it to family and friends. My BFF also gives it two FEET up!!! ;)
If at any time I find the product does not live up to the initial review, I will update my review to reflect my findings.
Hope you found my review to be helpful. If so, please click on the yes below ;)
Thank you!", "label": 1}

I purchased the travel size to test it out, as I need specialty detergent for a small set of silk, and cotton fabrics.
Being a small item, this was item was placed with several others in a communal box. The delivery was on-time and hassel free. The box arrived undamaged. Shutout to the delivery team for doing such a good job.
The item itself was placed in a medium-thick plastic bag with an advertisement and a coupon. The top of the bottle leaked a bit.
Overall, 6/10 for packaging. I would have preferred to not have recieved any additional advertisements or offers. As a millenial, I do everything electronically. An email or text with an offer would have been better. Simply to elimate paper waste and make using a coupon more efficient for online or in-person purchased.
I also disliked the use of a plastic bag. Obviously, it's to act as a barrier in case of spills. My suggestion to the company is to create a stronger seal and cap instead. Also, using a wax-lined, recycled, unbleached cardboard box instead of a plastic bag would have been better. At least that way the packaging can be compostable.
Basically, 3 pieces (1 plastic bag and 2 pieces of paper) ended up in a landfill for nothing. So I would like to see the company making improvements to change this dynamic.
Contents:
The detergent itself is fairly decent. It has a very faint smell that's hardly noticeable. The soap is not concentrated, and somewhat thin. A few drops does not lather particularly well. It takes roughly a third of the bottle to create any foam.
I used this to handwash vintage kimono silk. In a separate batch, I also washed a set of pure cotton fabrics (printed and dyed). I didn't notice any damages to the silk or brocade. The cotton remained intact, no visible shrinkage. No color fade. None of the items had any visible residue left over. I was a bit disappointed that there wasn't any scent remaining after drying. I don't have any allergies or skin sensitivity, so I enjoy a vibrant fragrance.
Overall, the detergent gets 7/10. It does the job. However, I think it's over-hyped. The website and the presentation make the product seem more high-end than it actually is. I feel like the price is less to do with the quality of the product itself, but more to do with keeping up with production costs. Since the product is made in the United States, the operation costs are greater. The consistency was also a bit disappointing. It's marketed as being concentrated, but it has very little viscosity.
However, it gets a 10/10 for being cruelty free. Absolutely no animal testing. They get my respect and my thanks for that one.
Another 10/10 for not using caustic chemicals, or having a heavy fragrance. I may be disappointed, but they do market themselves as being good for people with allergies and sensitivities. So if you're someone who can't handle fragrance, this detergent is for you.
Final Thoughts:
Honestly, I don't know if I like it or not. I appreciate the thought and care the company has put into certain things. I think it's just okay. Not the best, not the worst. If I had to use it again, it would be only for specialty items. I don't think I would purchase this for my everyday needs.
I do think this is a good option for people who are really struggling to find a detergent that won't make them break out or sneeze or cause some kind of reaction.", "label": 1}

Not comfortable but definitely tolerable. This took a while to ship to me, so I had plenty of time to grow out the hair on my legs to give it a test run. Perhaps I let my hair get a little too long because even though this definitely removed most of the hair on my ankles and calves, it didn't give me a smooth result at all. I think it broke some of the hairs close to the skin, causing some stubble that the epilator couldn't pull out with more passes.
It did come with directions but they were pretty basic. Nothing mentioning the desired starting length of hair before using. I did no preparation before using. Unboxed it and gave it a go.
My skin is pretty dry and flaky from the winter air. As I was using it, I could see my dry skin flaking off with the plucked hairs. It took many passes to get both legs (knee to ankle done). Took about 15 minutes. The after result was really ashy skin that was pretty itchy with some minor redness at some of the follicles.
I will attempt to use this again after a hot shower and good exfoliation to see if I achieve a better result. I did give my legs another pass over the stubble left behind with the shaver head and that didn't make anything any smoother. I did use it on my partner's back of neck and it did remove hair but he flinched a few times from the shaver head grabbing and pulling a few of the longer hairs. After a few passes, he ran and refused to allow me to test the product on him any further.
The product itself is not junk but it's not high quality either. The clear covers for each head don't fit snugly and fall off easily. The box it came in is really basic, nothing you would want to keep to store the device, attachments, brush and charging cable in. It did arrive already charged. I ran it for about 20-30 minutes and did not notice any slowing down or lag in the motor.
So far, I don't think that this will replace shaving for me but instead will be another tool in my hair removal arsenal. I have noticed that my legs have remained mostly hair free after using it. I haven't had to shave again in the week after using this.
I feel as this might be a cheaper, less effective epilator than other more expensive models, but can't say for certain as this is the first I've tried. Inexpensive way to see if you can tolerate this method of hair removal to see if purchasing a better unit is worth your time/expense. I don't have the nerve to try this on my bikini area but will attempt it on my armpits after a warm shower to see if I can tolerate it.
I will continue using this but when I come across a higher quality product, I will definitely be upgrading and passing this budget epilator along to my daughter for her to try before purchasing one for herself.
UPDATE: I attempted to use this on my armpits. While the pain factor was tolerable on my legs, I could not withstand the pain it caused while using it on my underarms. However, I came back to give this product one more star. Since using this product on my legs, I have not needed to shave my legs whatsoever. I'm due to give my legs a touch up soon, but I am tickled with how long my hairless legs have lasted. It took a while to do both legs the first time but with how long the results have lasted, I've saved myself so much time and effort in the long run. It's a very worthwhile investment.", "label": 1}

But this is one of those products. I have only used this product for one day, yet I am reviewing it due to the dramatic overnight results.
I had a severe respiration problem that was getting progressively worse lately. Almost any toxin/allergen in the air puts me on my back starving for oxygen. I actually had to phone 911 a few weeks ago to get some oxygen when a few wisps of smoke from a distant forest fire wafted into my neighborhood. Contemporary medicine has provided no solutions. The few days leading up to trying Miracle II Neutralizer were the worst yet, and I was running out of options. Then a friend showed up at my doorstep with a gallon sized container of this product. To make a long story short I started drinking 6oz of the liquid every 4 hours. When I awoke the following morning I was breathing near normal. By that evening respiration was completely normal. Needless to say, this product's name is not exaggerated.
Testing* later revealed that this is indeed a highly concentrated product and is actually as unbelievably inexpensive as it is unbelievably effective. My health practitioner determined that merely 4 drops of the solution in 6oz of tap water is equivalent to taking a straight 6oz of the product.
Also, be reminded that the FDA places severe restrictions on what makers of products such as these can claim about their efficacy. Thankfully forums such as Amazon reviews tell what the manufacturer of Miracle II cannot. And now I've told you my story. In an age of a population with decaying health, and a medical industry co-opted by the pharmaceutical industry, citizens need to inform each other in such forums as these that there are indeed alternatives to expensive (and harmful) prescription pills and operations.
* I use Applied Kinesiology for determining efficacy of food and supplements. In twenty plus years I've found it to be the single best diagnostic tool available. In the hands of the right practitioner (that's the key) one can derive answers to questions such as: \"What is the correct dose of Miracle II Neutralizer?\". In other reviews I've elaborated on this science.

I was searching for a scissors that was sheltered (trims the hair not the skin), tranquil, light weight, simple to hold and handle, had great controls, and would take a shot at my 16 year old long hair feline (for the most part Persian) while bringing about him minimal measure of inconvenience. Given his age and declining wellbeing, "Z" had quit prepping himself a couple of months back and declined to give me a chance to attempt to keep him prepared since his skin had turned out to be exceptionally touchy. To date, I am exceptionally satisfied with these scissors. I would have given them 5 stars with the exception of that the connections for hair length don't chip away at his jacket. Thusly, I need to give him an alternate route. However "Z" is not persuaded this scissors is sufficiently tranquil with the exception of when it is off and out of his sight,, it is an enormous change over my boisterous Oster. (Likewise Oster's exceptional feline sharp edge I had as of late requested would not slice through any of "Z's" fine undercoat.) The Ecoastal charges rapidly and holds the charge well. It is light weight and simple to move, and makes an astonishing showing with regards to experiencing "Z's" skin tight tangled undercoat hair that is as fine as down. (I did this procedure by drawing closer the mat from various sides and delicately evacuating it a little at once which guaranteed that I didn't cut the skin when he squirmed around.) Unlike the remarks left by a few other feline proprietors, I can't say however that "Z" loved any part of the procedure or the three uses from that point forward. As an elderly creature who has extremely touchy skin and I'm certain has PTSD from the vet various visits and shaves he got throughout the most recent two years, he abhors any scissors and this one is not a special case. The first occasion when I utilized it on him, he attempted to chomp the scissors and me until I turned it off. I then immediately acknowledged he was going to should be wrapped in a towel (with his face and a portion of his neck revealed) to be shaved so that neither he nor I would be harmed. Once toweled, I shaved a large portion of his body aside from his tail, face and mane. To guarantee he didn't overheat while wrapped in the towel, I just shaved him for just 3-4 minutes on end and afterward discharge them to circled and chill. In spite of every one of my endeavors to make this procedure middle of the road, he shouted, snarled, and murmured the whole time. There was no persuading him this was for his advantage. What was astounding however was when every one of the mats were gone and his long thick body coat, he appeared to be much more satisfied. By the following day, he quit lying on my bed throughout the day and started getting up and strolling and additionally circling the house. My theory is the tangled hair that he wouldn't permit me to evacuate, pulled on his skin and hurt so he had begun constraining his developments. I just wish I had thought about this scissors months before I obtained it. It is really great to have possessed the capacity to expel his tangled coat without harming him. Presently I simply need to make sense of how to shave him without the extra clasp on cutting edges so I can leave a more extended coat on him with winter drawing nearer.", "label": 1}

This probably applies to all the products made like htis, with the straps you have to pull around and attach (velcro) on the shoulder straps in the front. i felt this would help me, I tend to slouch and my back is tired and aches. I received it yesterday, and took me awhile to figure it out, the directions are simple, but for some reason i thought the adjustment straps went around the waist. looking at the pictures I figured out they go up the shoulder straps in front. Then, i got it on but couldn't reach the straps in the back to pull it tighter. if i were thinner (my chest isn't over 50' it says it fits 50'hest) and did more yoga, i could probably reach the ends of the straps in back. There is no one else here to do it for me. i gave up last night and this morning took2 long strips of material and sewed them tightly to each end of the adjustment straps, (wrapped the thread around the material and strap tightly to hold it ) so i could pull it around and tie it in the front, instead. This worked fine, and as soon as I did it, the pain in my back started to fade. I am giving this 5 stars because it does work, and it looks like the more expensive ones, that work the same way, and it's me, I am not thin and flexible enough to grab the adjustment straps in back and pull them up on the shoulder straps like it's supposed to be used. Even if i got one that came around in the front, instead of on the shoulders, it still might not be easy to grab the straps in the back to pull them around. unless they were very long, like how i fixed this one. They seem like they are made for thin, flexible people, or for someone with help. (you can't put the adjustment straps on before putting it on, it has to open up to get the arms in). other than this, it has possibilities. i'm attempting to lose weight, and maybe when i do, i will be ble to use it the way it's meant to. Though i'm also hoping it will help m back and i won't need it at some point. it does make my back feel better.
[ I am editing this because after awhile how i had the pieces of material to tie around my waist attached to the straps, didn't stay on good. I then made a slip knot in the long strip of fabric, and put the strap of the brace in this, pulling it tight so it closed up on it and wouldn't slip off. On both sides. Now I can get hold of the straps in back of me (the material I attached) and pull them around in front and tie at my waist. As I said, I think a thinner more agile person wouldn't need to do this and could use it the way it is. as i lose weight do yoga,I hope I will be at that point sometime.

Since I was the only other person in the house, this was ideal when I was either in my own bedroom on the other side of the wall, or downstairs and in another room, or even yet another level further downstairs, in other words this was audible from level 1 to level 3. This alert *is* going to wake up anyone else in the house, in my opinion, unless their door is closed, they are a very heavy sleeper, their bedroom is far away, and maybe even then. Other reviewers have discussed how it is possible to muffle the sound by wrapping it in a towel or something, so it can be muted, but that was the last thing I was interested in.
The battery also lasts an extremely long time, something like a year or more of 24x7 use, and there is a highly visible blinking light to assure you the battery is still working (the light is small, and won't keep anyone awake).
This was some of the best money I've ever spent, allowing me to actually sleep in my own bed with absolute confidence I would be awakened no matter how deeply I was sleeping, and as exhausted as I was, I had begun to sleep very deeply without wanting to.
The instructions are very clear, just put the batteries in, adjust the mat under the sleeper, and hang the device on their doorknob or wherever - the cord beyween the mat and the alarm device was plenty long enough to be convenient. You can place the mat under the other person's shoulders, so that it goes off if their shoulders come off the mat (which is about a yard wide, so just rolling over on top of it will not trigger it), or you can place it under them lower down, around the middle of their ribs, so it is triggered only if they actually sit up. The device is sensitive and works immediately with no dangerous time lag, when pressure contact on the mat is removed. It does not go off if someone just rolls back and forth on it or shifts position. I experimented with the proper placement by lying on top of it myself, and adjusting its location to be under my ribs, so that it would go off when my shoulders got about 8" off the bed, as I was in the process of sitting up. It worked perfectly EVERY TIME.
I did not actually *use* the feature of the magnetic tether for detecting when someone sitting, gets up from a chair, but I did *test* it, and found it unobtrusive and lightweight to the sitting person, and extremely effective.
I said out loud to myself and to others, repeatedly, that this was the best money I'd ever spent in my life. I no longer had to sleep on the floor by the bed so I'd be physically stepped on and awakened, or on the floor in the hallway just outside the open door in the hopes I would hear activity and wake up in time, and no longer did I have to attempt to stay awake all night at the foot of the bed, in an uncomfortable chair, in case something happened.
This product was a miracle of relief to me, I have absolutely NO complaints about it, and only the HIGHEST praise.
It's simple to use, it works brilliantly, there is a reassuring light visible from at least 60 feet away (probably farther) so you know it's on, the light lets you know when the battery finally *does* begin to get weak, but the sound is still very loud and the device still works strongly for WEEKS after the "weak battery" light alert comes on, so there is NO concern about being surprised by it suddenly stopping working. I have nothing but the highest praise - and my very deepest gratitude - for this product.", "label": 1}

I bought a fitbit Charge HR previously and LOVE the product, and so I had thought that it made sense to purchase an Aria to complement and automatically track my weight and body fat. Despite having some hesitation based on the reviews here, I thought my experience might be different and so went ahead with the purchase (such a millennial). At first I was very pleased, as set-up was easy and the Aria easily connected with my WiFi network (**see note at the bottom as I did have some set up troubles independent of the scale itself). After setting up, I invited the other users who would be using the scale and it automatically detected them once they started using it.
After three weeks of use, i can confirm a few things: First, the readings are wildly inaccurate, even after the first few days of "break-in use". I followed all recommendations (storing flat, not moving the scale in between uses, measuring at the same time every day, etc, etc). The weight readings alone vary with each use (+/- 3 pounds on average). Literally stepping on the scale, taking a reading, stepping off, and repeating would yield large swings in weight, with NO OTHER CHANGES. Same was true with bodyfat %--swings of up to +/- 2% during the same measurement window. Now, I understand that body fat readings can vary with water weight, etc, but to have your actual measured weight vary that much on a digital scale is just unacceptable. Seriously, how did fitibit not get this right on a $120 scale? That's its basic, basic function. $15 scales from Target are more accurate.
Aside from inconsistent readings, the scale would also incorrectly categorize user readings. There are only 2 people using my scale--myself and my gf, and there are 50+ lbs separating us. On multiple occasions, I would get a notification on my phone from fitbit saying "congratulations on losing 50 lbs!". Fortunately it is easy to open the fitbit app, delete/re-categorize the inaccurate readings and have it resync, but the fact it would assume that I had lost 50 lbs in a day was frustrating. Note that when it miscategorized the user, it would then default into a mode where you would have to manually select the user for each use (until the readings were deleted), which again was frustrating.
The only things I can save to the positive are that 1) it had no problem connecting to my wifi; 2) the wifi range seems to be good (it was ~20 feet away from my router through a kitchen); 3) battery use is minimal; 4) the sync worked well, and 5) the integration with the fitbit app was nice.
Sadly, I cannot recommend this product and will be returning mine.
**Note on setup: Overall set up was relatively easy, but there is a problem with the user account set up for the Aria. Clearly, they have not integrated the back-ends. The issue is that I had set up my fitibit account with my facebook account, but when I tried to set up the Aria it asks for a fitbit username and password. Since I had used my fb account, I didn't have either, but obvi wanted to keep my prior data. I had to log on to the fitibit website using a computer, reset the password, create a new password, and then go through the Aria set up process again. This was additionally frustrating.", "label": 0}

When my \"bad day\" started, I actually wasn't sure that it had started because I was only mildly uncomfortable and my \"incapacitating\" period never really started! I still had to take some Aleve, but I didn't feel like overdosing like I usually do. LOL. The next day, I happily realized that that *was* my \"bad day.\"
It seems like the fish oil substantially minimized my cramps and I only took it for a few days! And I have a pretty bad diet/sleep schedule/exercise schedule.
About the product: It's extremely easy to pour (there's a little funnel inside of the bottle) and it tastes delicious (a very \"pure\" and simple taste that reminds me of \"Fruity Pebbles\" cereal a little bit because of the very light lemon flavor). All you have to do is refrigerate it, have a teaspoon handy, and make sure to take it immediately before or after you eat something.
I'm going to see how my next period turns out, but I think it'll be the same or even better because I'll have more time to take it and I'm slowly improving my diet. I'll update my review after my next period.
So far, I totally recommend this product for minimizing menstrual cramps. It definitely can't hurt to try it. Make sure to get the \"Lemon\" flavor because I'm not sure how the \"Orange\" flavor tastes. (Orange-flavored products are usually hit or miss with me)
UPDATE 10/14/2012: I was right on the money. My recent period was even BETTER than the first one!!! This time I took TWO teaspoons per day a week before and on the day of my \"bad day.\" My diet/sleep schedule was about the same because I've been super busy. Still had a little bit of cramping but, like before, I could function. Very rarely have I had a period like this without birth control. Again, if you have horrible menstrual cramps, I would HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend this product.
If, for whatever reason, you can't buy this product, I also recommend eating sardines or salmon because, like this oil, they are high in omega-3 fatty acids. I like canned sardines in water. Leafy greens like spinach, collard greens, turnip greens, and mustard greens are also helpful.", "label": 1}

I have lupus and it primarily affects my skin. I have been trying various essential oils and recipes to address my skin problems in a natural way because I do not like using steroid creams. After reading up on how good tea tree oil is for use as a first aid product, acne treatment and eczema treatment, I started using the oils at my local shopping center. The products there were okay, but I did not find the high level of success that others had documented so I started experimenting with the different brands of essential oils. By far, the New York Biology brand has been the best product that I have tried to date.
The first thing to note is that it smells stronger than most other brands I have tried. Tea tree oil has a very unique smell that is difficult to describe and not everyone will like it. It has a spicy, medicinal tone that I do like so it does not bother me. Because this product is so strong, as soon as I opened the bottle and took a sniff, it opened up my sinuses! Big plus! The good thing is that the scent can be adjusted by diluting the tea tree oil if you find the scent not to your liking. I also liked that this product has a dropper that allows me to be very accurate with the placement of the product when used alone or when mixing it with other products. Usually, it is suggested that you need to use a specific number of drops for various purposes and it is difficult to get the mixes exactly right when you do not use a dropper.
Next, the uses of tea tree oil are many. I have read several books and websites to discover which uses I was most interested in trying. I first tried it as aromatherapy using my diffuser. That worked great as a way to freshen the air. Then I used it in my vaporizer to help with congestion and stuffy sinuses and it decreased the amount of time it took for me to feel relief to about 10 minutes. I read that it could be used to keep cuticles healthy so I tried that this time and it did work. I developed a small pimple during the time I was testing the oil and so I was able to apply it at night before I went to sleep and when I woke up the pimple was gone. (Please note that it is recommended that you perform a skin test to determine if you can use the oil directly on your skin or if you need to mix it with a carrier oil. I do not mix mine unless I have a specific recipe that requires mixing.) I got a paper cut while going through my mail so I tried the tea tree oil on that and it quickly took away the stinging. I used the oil in my bath and it did help relax my muscles, but I found that if I combined tea tree oil, epsom salt and lavender in a really warm bath, I got the biggest bang for my buck: Open sinuses, relaxed muscles and calmed mind!
Finally, I thought that it was an interesting fun fact that it is believed that the Aborigines of Australia have been using this product for centuries and the New York Biology brand specifies that its product originates in Australia on the bottle. They know what their doing and it shows in this high quality product. They offer a money back guarantee that you will love their product, or they will provide you with a refund.

I took a pic of my two favorite attachments and the one that is for massage is great and I'll tell you why in a second. First I need to mention that this is NOT A/C it runs on 2 double A batteries so you might have to steal the ones out of your tv remote when you want to use this! lol It's a little bit of a trick to get the lid off of the battery compartment but, that's about it and I think that's my only problem with it as far as from a reviewers stand point which I need to mention I did get this product at a steep discount to help you decide if you want to try the DBPOWER 6 IN 1 brush but, please believe me that in no way has any bearing on my honest opinion of this neat little gadget. So back to the attachments I'm not going to list each one *YAWN* I'm just going to tell you the two that I was immediately drawn to. The little massage attachment makes a lot of noise when the thing is spinning and those little white beads are rattling away but, let me tell you I put it on low speed (it has two low and high) I was falling a bit in love with it because, I don't know if you've ever heard about lymphatic massage of your face and how it's suppose to really help you? Well I decide to read about it a bit before finishing this review and this is what I found out that lymphatic drainage is a medical procedure. When the body has a hard time removing lymph, it causes swelling, water retention, and discomfort. Lymph nodes are powerhouses of the body, regulating fats, sending out white blood cells to heal, and disposing of bacteria. Sometimes, the body needs a bit of help to get this system moving optimally. Exercise is the easiest way to stimulate lymph flow, but you can add a few minutes of light manipulation to the face to really see a difference in swelling, headaches, or sinus congestion. So with all that said I decided to use it for that purpose and at low speed it's gentle enough to just close your eyes and go over that area, then next to your nose, your temples neck etc. it was an awesome feeling instantly relaxed me and I am sure with continued use I will really reap the benefits. The other attachment head that I was instantly fond of is the gritty one. Now you don't want to use this on your face or nails because it's really super coarse but, put that head on and attach the long handle and you can go to town on your feet any rough spots or calluses this thing is going to make short work of them. The other attachments are all also great and perform their functions perfectly. I just wanted to expand on the two I like most. Ok so that's the brush it ALSO comes with this cute little bag and a booklet with instructions! Imagine that! lol I'm going to tell you right now that little bag is so cute and it's big as you can see from the photos I took it fit all the brush and attachments in it and two of my full size facial products. So yeah I'm really happy with this product. It says it's waterproof so I am going to trust them at their word because I didn't take it in the bath or shower with me yet. I can't think of anything else but, if I do or something happens that I feel is important for you to know I will come back and update. Enjoy!", "label": 1}

-You CAN just use the straightener to dry and style the beard, but the best results are when you still use the hair drier as it gets 100% of the water out and allows the hair to straighten. The brush leaves some residual moisture which can kink stubborn hair like mine.
-Make sure you use a charging brick that is sufficient enough. Using my small Apple charger was frustrating as the charge would take a full day/night to complete! Once I read the battery requirements I realized I needed a more powerful charging brick. TIP: if the screen flashes while charging, the unit is not receiving enough power to charge in a reasonable time. You should see the display fully lit, not flashing, and the charge increasing fairly quickly before your eyes.
-Battery life on this thing leaves much to be desired. That being said, I'm only charging it about once a week as results for me can last a few days at a time if I'm not getting the beard soaked every night in the shower. If I used it daily, I may have to increase to charging 2x a week.
-Heat up time is also a small issue. It gets to 200F pretty quickly, but 200-365F takes a bit. If I turn it on right out of the shower it still needs a minute or so by the time I'm ready to use it. Not a deal-breaker though.
Pros:
-easy to follow manual
-the battery came with a mostly full charge
-the packaging was nice and high-end
-instruction manual was clear and easy to read
-comes with charging cable
-lightweight
-bristles aren\u2019t too tall for shorter beard lengths
-easy to lock the desired temperature
-easy to adjust the temperature
-can be used to charge other devices (this will be really useful for me when camping or traveling!)
-straightened out kinks and ripples easily on hair that hadn\u2019t been washed or straightened in 2 days
Cons:
-the box had a pink unit pictured but was black inside (I didn\u2019t recall a color choice at the time of purchase)
-charging cable is short and doesn't come with a power brick to plug the USB end into (read power requirements in manual)
-it is possible to burn yourself on the heating element if you press down too much, although it is somewhat uncommon
Original Review:
Overall this is a great product! The biggest point is that it can eliminate the need to blow dry and then straighten your beard. I haven't washed my beard since getting this product so I still haven't tested it fully, but my best results came the day I got the product. I had washed my beard the night before, blew dry, and straightened with a brush (I have very curly/kinky dark hair).
The next day the product arrived and I used my round brush to raise the hair and then brushed it out with the straightening iron- it worked amazingly- stick straight, no water or washing. That night, I got it all soaked and used the straightener by itself... the results were really good, not as good as the first time, but maybe with more finesse.
The next morning, I untangled using a wide-tooth comb, raised the hair with my round brush, and used the straightener... I was able to achieve a nice result using the brush and straightener together and it definitely saved me time over my normal routine.", "label": 1}

I was leery of ultrasonic plaque removers and my first thought was \u201cNo, that looks like it could damage my teeth.\u201d And then I thought \u201cI should have a more open mind and willingness to try new things\u201d. I\u2019ve always been concerned about my teeth and maintaining them as best I can. So I gave this a try.
I have three ultrasonic cleaners for cleaning jewelry and small items and one ultrasonic toothbrush and like them so much I\u2019ve given ultrasonic tooth brushes as gifts, as I value their performance over standard tooth brushes. This plaque remover uses the same technology.
After charging it up, (BTW this uses a USB to USB-C cable, which is included) when I first turned it on I couldn\u2019t even tell it was running. Just knew that it was on, since the LED light was on.
Once placed against my tooth, (I started on the Gentle setting) I could feel the vibration and heard a high pitched sound, much like my tinittus! I knew that it was working.
You don\u2019t use any pressure. You gently place the tip in areas that are hard to clean and prone to plaque build-up.
That\u2019s it! So easy and very, very safe.
Be uber careful when working in the space between teeth and don\u2019t twist the tip in that space. Just gently place it in there and the vibes will remove what it can. If unsure, avoid it altogether until you gain more skill with the tool.
You won\u2019t need to use it on perfectly clean tooth surfaces and probably should avoid doing so. It just isn\u2019t necessary.
The light really helps to see all the way into the back of the mouth.
I can see why there are two tips. Also, the little round mirror will help with seeing hard to view areas, like the inside of the front upper teeth. I use a bathroom mirror too.
The pointy hand tool scrapers are for removing heavily built-up plaque and tartar.
The manual didn\u2019t describe the purpose of the large, wide stainless steel tool, but I imagine it may be to hold your cheek out to access the molars, or maybe to hold the tongue down, not sure. It \u201cmight\u201d be for use in between teeth.
I just started using this fine tool. I\u2019m really impressed with it and will use it to remove plaque from time to time. I\u2019m going slow with it and will try the different heads and different speeds when I feel more confident with it.
When using this below the gum line, don\u2019t be alarmed if a little bleeding occurs. That\u2019s normal and to be expected. It usually stops quickly. I will continue to gently clean below the gum line and know that eventually the bleeding will not occur as the gums heal and become more healthy.
So glad I found this fabulous device and gave it a chance. I\u2019ve been using battery powered water flossers for many months now and love what they do, but I\u2019ll continue to use my ultrasonic tooth brush and regular dental floss as well as this tool for best results.
Although it doesn\u2019t come with a carry pouch, the box it came with has a small plastic tray with indentations. It\u2019s small and light and the charge, if it\u2019s like my toothbrush, should last a long time before needing a recharge. This will make it easy to take with me for travel if on an extended trip.
This is really affordable and a good value for what you get, especially when considering what dental cleanings cost, although this should not replace your routine cleaning by a hygienist.
Recommended.
5 STARS!", "label": 1}

So if you don't trust these types of reviews you can move along. However, I will say that for a couple dollars off a product there isn't much incentive to lie and I always offer truthful evaluations.
That said.... Although I have a good deal of experience with skin care both professionally and personally, this is the first time I have tried these Konjac Sponges. I've wanted to try them since they came out but never decided to shell out the money. So when I saw these as a very modest price I went for it. I've used Clarisonic brushes and a very wide array of other products and devices to cleanse the face including sea sponges. You name it and I've tried it.
As others have noted these two sponges come dried looking kind of like cow patties (sorry but that was my first impression). They come in a cute little mesh bag to hold the spare one and there is a thread attached to each for hanging to dry between uses. I had to soak it for several minutes before it became soft enough to use. I hung it up to dry over night with the intent of using it in the morning. When I woke it was still soft and had not become hard and dry like it's original form. I live in the Pacific Northwest so it may never totally dry between uses up here. I am not sure it this will grow mold staying constantly moist in this environment and I know of no way to sanitize it with the possible exception of maybe putting in the microwave for 30 to 40 second. Have not tried that yet. Maybe the charcoal which is said to be infused into the sponge will prevent fungus and mold. Time will tell.
The sponge is slightly slippery to touch when wet. Much different than the touch and texture of a sea sponge. I placed my typically amount of cleanser on it and was pleasantly surprised that it was soft on the skin and it lathered up the cleanser so much that I will have to cut back by 50% next time. Although soft on the skin I felt that it would have a slight exfoliation effect. Not like a Clarisonic but enough for sensitive skin. I would say the exfoliation would be similar to a soft wash cloth. It would most definitely clean your skin better than hands alone which has been my typical practice. I'm too lazy to use a wash cloth and have to wash each one after every use. Thus, the reason I was attracted to trying these Konjac sponges. I won't say I'm in love with these sponges yet but I very much like them. I would need a month or more of use to determine if these sponges are significant better for my sensitive skin than a Clarisonic. In the past I have only been able to use the Clarisonic a few times a week. Otherwise it inflames my skin too much. These sponges should clean my skin better than hands alone while not causing any adverse effects to my redness prone skin. That is a huge plus for me.
They are really worth a try and the price of these are significant less than others I have seen on Amazon. I would definitely recommend trying them out especially if you have sensitive skin and the Clarisonic is just too abrasive. Just my opinion, but I think American's scrub their skin way too much and too hard. Your face isn't the bathroom floor! In my own case I think this over scrubbing mentality resulted in my now overly sensitive skin. Use caution and be gentle when cleaning your facial skin.", "label": 1}

Still repurchasing this oil because it is the best geranium oil I've tried; however, I bought the biggest bottle available last December and it was more sweet smelling than normal. I didn't love it. I'm not sure if it was just that particular batch, but I went back to purchasing the smaller $18.99 bottle because the scent has historically been a bit more sultry.
On a funny note, I was staying with one of my friends and she 'borrowed' some of this oil before bedtime. She used WAY too much and applied it directly to her face and body. The scent was so powerful that her fiance and dog didn't want to be in the same room with her! Always dilute with a carrier oil. A little goes a long way :)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update 10/5/2019:
I am still loving this oil. It is my HG forever. I moved overseas last year and stocked up on this geranium oil. Now that I live in Ireland, I\u2019m subjected to far more cold/windy/rainy days. Introducing cold sores - hooray! Anyway, this stuff works wonders on them. I dilute with my Argan oil or dab a bit on a qtip before using a gentle lip balm, and it really helps minimize swelling and oozing. Cold sores didn\u2019t really even get big enough to be noticeable! Just be sure to moisturize the EFF out of your lips after applying geranium as it has a slight drying effect. So not only has this oil completely obliterated my acne, it also keeps the cold sores in check.
_____________________________________
Dang, y'all. This oil is boss. I put a drop or two onto a cotton ball with a bit of safflower oil each night and use it to cleanse my face. My skin has never looked better! I've been struggling with acne for over 20 years, so that's really saying something. Cystic acne off an on for the last 5-6 years. This stuff seriously balances me out and keeps breakouts at bay. My scars are also (slowly) starting to fade.
--------------
Update: February 2019
I stopped using this at some point after feeling like I had my skin under control and slowly my problems returned. I am always trying new things, so I'm positive I also changed other things about my skin care routine during this time. I was using safflower oil as cleanser and ACV toner and that cleared things up somewhat, but my skin was a little dried out. I also moved to Ireland recently and the cold weather made things worse. I started using this geranium oil in December in combo with an organic argan oil and my skin is happy again. Most importantly NO MORE CYSTS. I still get little splotches of red on my face where pimples are thinking about showing up, but they go away in a day or two when I use this geranium oil with the argan. I think at 35 my acne is all hormonal, so this must balance hormones as it claims to do; however, I don't notice any difference in my mood or anything as a result of using it. My roommate also says she likes the way this smells, so it also sort of doubles as my perfume. If it smelled like rotted fish, I'd probably still use it because I don't have to obsess over my skin too much these days!", "label": 1}

Let me give you some thoughts about the other products I\u2019ve tried and give you some insight about my experience with Reloaded. I\u2019ve been taking other \u201cenergy and focus\u201d supplements for a long time. G-Fuel, Sneak, Proven4, Valis - you name it and I\u2019ve tried it. First off, I\u2019m not very sensitive to caffeine because I take so much. So when I take a product I really don\u2019t notice any sort of effect. There\u2019s no energy, just a crash. With G Fuel and the others it\u2019s like I\u2019m just drinking expensive and foul flavored water. With G fuel, I don\u2019t notice any focus or enhanced reaction time and I could care less about anti-oxidants. Same with the other gamer supps. It\u2019s like they\u2019re all the same, crappy formula, use the same ingredients, and all taste equally bad. So I was skeptical about Reloaded but since it used different ingredients I thought I\u2019d give it a shot.
I ordered 2 packages of Reloaded. The Voodoo berry, which is like a grape/cherry blend and the Tropical Daiquiri. Both of these tasted AMAZING. Better than any energy drink or pre-workout I\u2019ve tried. I\u2019ve been on a big VPX Bang kick and Reloaded, to me, tasted way better. I\u2019m a pounder. I don\u2019t nurse my energy drinks. I drink them pretty fast (mainly because they taste terrible). I really enjoyed drinking Reloaded and I wanted the flavor to last. So I compromised. I chugged one serving then I drank my second serving a bit slower. It was amazing!
I wasn\u2019t expecting to really \u201cfeel\u201d anything with reloaded, but I was wrong. You know how you kind of get desensitized to caffeine supplements and they just kind of lose their effect after a while? That\u2019s why I was so surprised that I actually felt something different. I actually felt energy. No, not that jittery nervous energy that you feel with drinks like Monster and Bang. It was like a smooth energy. So smooth that I didn\u2019t even notice it tapering off. My friends said I was more talkative. I noticed that I was extremely focused as well. They all thought I was taking adderall or something. That\u2019s really what I can compare it to. You feel that same kind of focus and energy. It\u2019s pretty crazy!
Some of the other things I noticed was that I wasn\u2019t hungry, so I wasn\u2019t snacking a lot. I didn\u2019t crash or get tired. I was just in the zone. I enjoy working out, gaming and I\u2019m in college so I study quite a bit. Reloaded has helped me perform better in all 3 of these areas and I haven\u2019t noticed any sort of decline in how well it works. I did some research into the main ingredients and they are legit \u201ccutting edge\u201d. Developed by DARPA for elite warfighters?? It doesn\u2019t get more legit then that. Also, it isn\u2019t loaded with caffeine. It contains Teacrine and Dynamine. These ingredients are what give you the energy. They don\u2019t effect your central nervous system or your adrenal glands, and they are considered premium and safe ingredients. Way safer than caffeine and you don\u2019t build a tolerance to them.
Overall, this is a great product. It isn\u2019t cheap, but it works. It works better than anything out there. I\u2019ve got friends that are on the football team that take it religiously. I\u2019ve got friends that are like elite Twitch streamers and gamers that swear by this stuff even though they are sponsored by G-Fuel. I can\u2019t say enough about this.

For the price of $184.00 all you get is a cheesy little cell phone that can only call 911 with one button press and hang up with the second button press. It appeared that you could have gotten this in a Dollar Store.
Any cell phone with, even with no service can call 911 for free as long as it has a battery charge with three button presses. The Federal Government requires that all towers accept 911 emergency calls even if the cell phone is not activated with a service company.
It arrived and I was stunned to find a simple little unit that didn't appear to have any quallity built into it.
I tried two test calls to 911. Both failed. Both times I reached the 911 operator but in neither test was the 911 operator able to hear or talk to me. Leaving me to hang up on them and I'm sure leaving the 911 operator wondering if an actual emergency was taking place but having no way to talk the caller.
On the second call there was a lot of \"static or screeching\" interfereing with the call. I couldn't tell what was going on.
You can get a much better quality phone and product by just getting a simple AT&T flip \"Go-Phone\" for about $30.00. The phone is much more substantial. Just let the allowable minutes run out and just keep it for dialing 911.
The phone has a battery and a screen. But the screen it totally dark with no display unless you press and make the 911 call.
So you are not able to tell the condition of the battery without calling 911 at the same time. How lame is that? Perhaps a low battery indicator might come up as the battery runs low, but I like to be able to have a look at the remaining charge at any time without having to call 911 in the process.
The buttons were wiggly. The call cancel button was called a toggle button but just appeared to be loose in its position.
The call button, though slightly recessed, was still easily accessible to being pressed if you carried the phone in a purse full of items or your pocket with keys or something. It could easily activate accidentally.
Even the lanyard cord was a cheap ribbon with a crimped piece of metal forming the loop on the end with a clip at the end. Couldn't have been cheaper.
A better bet is just to get a simple flip AT&T \"Go-Phone\" and let minutes expire. As it flips shut it is less likely to go off in pocket or purse. No lanyard here but much cheaper ($30) for a quality phone.
Even better, look at this:
The GreatCall 5Star Urgent response phone that allows you to press button for 911 and/or press the button and speak to a call center representative where you can talk to operators who can call for help for you.
This unit is only about $50.00 vs. $184.00. There is a small monthly service charge, but very worth it if you have a loved one you are trying to protect. It works on the Verizon network, so you can use it most places away from home where Verizon is available.
You can see it at:

I returned the unit the same day and received a very quick, full refund without any hassle.

I had no issues putting the device on myself, and inflating it to perform traction without any assistance. I have a genetic disorder which causes me to produce weak collagen, called Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I find this device to be highly useful for any time I may fall asleep sitting up. Due to my hypermobility, when I nod off in an airplane, a chair, or in the car, my neck bends in unnatural angles and I wake up in a lot of pain. If I wear this device, it prevents any possibility of bending of my neck into an unnatural position.
General - If you need traction, this works pretty well. If you need neck stabilization due to craniocervical instability, hypermobility, or another issue, this device does the trick cheaply. I was concerned that it would give me a choking sensation, but it didn't, even when fully inflated. Because of the way the velcro closures work to secure the device, there really isn't any pressure on your throat \u2013 and that is important to me. So far, I haven\u2019t had any sensation of choking, which I\u2019m already prone to just by leaning my head back when it isn\u2019t braced. This device is easy to toss in a bag, so I take it with me when I\u2019ll be gone overnight for any reason!
PROS: Works well for traction, or to stabilize the neck while sleeping upright. The unit has durable parts connected to the inflatable part. Easy to deflate, and compact enough to be portable.
CONS: People who are rough with their stuff might puncture the plastic early. The item did not include any instructions, anyone not familiar with the ball pump setup may need a few minutes to figure out how to deflate the unit without pulling the bulb off. There is a mechanism at the top of the bulb that you can screw/unscrew to lock in or release the air. Deflating it is simple, just not necessarily intuitive for people who haven't used a blood pressure cuff or other similar device.", "label": 1}

The old t:clip case was total crap, and I hated it with every fiber of my being. Every month or two I would sit down in my car a little sideways and the case on my belt would twist on the car seat and it would break it clean off the clip. As careful as I was, I usually had to buy a new case every few months because they constantly broke. And they cost like 25 or 30 or something ridiculous. I have probably spend $500 in those damn cases over the last 5 years, NO JOKE. Not to mention it was annoying every time you had to change cartridges, and it just didn't feel like quality. I was used to my old animas pump with the metal clip before I got the tandem and the clip was so much better. The crappy case quality has always been a dark shadow on an otherwise great device.
So this new case fixes virtually every problem I had with the old case. It's easier to change pump cartridges, it is lower profile so it doesn't stick out from your body as much when you wear on a belt, and it feels sturdy and protective without getting in the way, and the best part is the METAL CLIP. And the clip is even removable and you can attach it in either direction depending on if you prefer a vertical or horizontal pump orientation. I use mine vertical. I also love the blue color because when then the pump is inserted, it gives it a black look with just a slight hint of blue around the edges. It's kind of a nice transparent color. It's a very classy look, and I can wear the blue case in both a work and sporty environment and not have it be out of place. I was sick of having nothing but black all the time, although I'll probably get a black one of these as a backup anyway.
I only have two complaints about this case that keep it from being perfect. One is that I wish there was just a slight bit more room on the clip, because if I have a thick pair of pants or a thick belt, it can be hard to get the clip around it and slid all the way down. I never had that problem with my Animas back in the day, it seemed to fit every belt and pant waist like a glove. The clip needs a little bit more give/room to it toward the top. I hope it might stretch a little bit as I wear it in.
The other problem with the case is I feel the button overlay is unnecessary and causes it to be WAY too hard to depress the main button, especially when you're trying to do anything that requires multiple holds and presses, like an audio bolus. The cover on the button is totally unnecessary anyway because the button is already recessed from the case, so unless you somehow get hit with a thin sharp projectile straight at the button, there is no way anything is going to damage it. In the last case they left the button uncovered and I highly doubt they determined it was a safety issue that the button was uncovered after all this time. So there is really no need for the button to be covered. I'm actually thinking about taking an exacto knife and cutting out the button overlay. It makes it so much harder to press. I love the audio bolus feature but now I find myself thinking it's a hassle, because I reach to press and hold the button and you get no feedback that the button is being pressed, and usually I have to apply a crazy amount of force to the button to get it to register a press.
So not perfect, but it's still a no-brainer compared to the old POS case that I can't believe they produced for so long. With just a few tiny tweaks in the design it could be a perfect case.", "label": 1}

Although this clipper looks a lot like other clippers sold on Amazon for general purpose cutting of the hair on your head, these are different because they're waterproof. As a result, you can use them in the shower, and they are well-suited for bodyscaping and other hair removal on your body/neck/etc.
Basic clipper technology is pretty low tech, and I have been pleasantly surprised to discover that just about all hair clippers sold these days--even by non-name-brands--do a pretty good job: They clip fine, and they feature lithium-ion batteries that last a really long time. This clipper is no exception.
Specifics of this kit:
** Rechargeable waterproof clipper with integrated light
** Upgraded ceramic blade
** Narrow gapping for reasonably close trimming
** 90 minutes on a full charge
** One multi-position length guard
** USB-A to USB-C charging cable
** Cleaning brush
** Very Cheap Travel pouch
** Stand (note that stand is just a piece of plastic--clipper will not charge in stand)
** Clipper oil
** Extra replacement cutting head
Clipper operation is trivial: There's an on/off button on the handle. And there's another button above it that turns the LED light on and off. That's it. There is no readout of charge level: No LCD screen, etc. That's too bad--most have that.
The clippers are about average in size, and feel fine in the hand.
I found that the clippers cut hair fine, and were able to cut pretty close to the skin line. If you want absolutely smooth, you'd have to run over the same skin area with a shaver. That's because they're not quite 0-gapped (see photos). But these will leave you looking clean-shaven. The functionality is close to a T-Blade clipper, but with a fully enclosed body around the rotation axis, which means both that it's waterproof, and that you don't need to worry about accidentally getting body hair twisted in the exposed rotating spindle.
The stand is a cheap piece of molded plastic, and it's not weighted, so it can topple over. It also isn't a charging stand. Honestly, I won't be using it, and I imagine most people will just throw it in a drawer.
There's no mechanical or electronic lockout mechanism, so these are not necessarily great for travel.
On the whole, they get the job done and they are waterproof. I don't find the integrated light to be of much value, but it's not a negative. These clippers are priced higher than similar clippers that are not rated to be waterproof, so you'll need to decide for yourself if you're willing to spend an extra $15+ (at the current price) for that feature. That's probably money well spent if you plan to use the clippers primarily for focusing on body hair. It's also nice that these feature an upgraded ceramic blade, unlike many traditional T-blade clippers. And this kit includes both clipper oil and an extra replacement cutting--itself worth about $10 if you ever need it.
Pros:
** Waterproof
** Includes travel pouch
** Includes three multi-position length guards
** USB-C charging port on clipper
** Includes clipper oil
** Includes extra replacement cutting head
Cons:
** No LCD readout of charge level
** Stand is not weighted and prone to tipping over by accident
** Not the cheapest option in this class
** Not 0-gapped", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3668, "id": 294295, "interval": [700, 800], "len_words": 533, "len_tokens": 709, "text": "I have used Norelco 3-floating-head shavers for decades. Although I have occasionally strayed to other models featuring a traditional foil interface (Braun, Panasonic, Remington), and have even used top-end shavers from those brands, for day-to-day shaving, I always come back to the 3-floating-head design. The main reason is that the float head design works better on my neck and jaw-line regions. No matter how hard I try, the foil shavers don't quite get those areas. If I want to use only a single shaver, I\u2019ll pick the floating head design. (Sometimes, I\u2019ll use both types).
I own a top-of-the-line modern Norelco shaver and several older Norelcos that go from previous high-end to entry level. (Over the years, you accumulate a lot of shavers). So I have a pretty good idea of what a good rotary shaver can deliver, and of what an entry-level shaver provides.
First things first: This shaver provides a decent entry-level shave. It's comparable to an entry-level Norelco rotary shaver in terms of shave quality, ability to navigate the neck area, etc. Looking over the shaver, it's clear this is patterned after a Norelco, down to the three floating rotary blades in the head unit.
The area where this is superior to an entry-level Norelco is in the battery. The 800 mAh battery is rated for 90 minutes on a charge. While top-end Norelcos can better this, the low-end shavers still use smaller batteries and are typically rated for less than half of what this promises on a single charge.
Note that there's no integrated clipper on this shaver. It's ONLY a shaver. That's not a huge loss--the clippers integrated into shavers tend to be mediocre. But it's still a convenience that's missing.
The shaver comes with a plastic protector for the heads and can be put into lock mode for travel. The latter is nice.
In the kid:
** 3 rotary head shaver, IPX6 waterproof
** USB charging cable
** Second (replaement) head for the shaver
** Cleaning brush
My main concern with these unknown-brand shavers is how well the blades will hold up and whether you'll easily be able to replace them. My experience is that the blades don't hold up as well as with a name brand like Norelco, so you may need to replace them much sooner. It's not clear where you'd get a replacement blade unit, either. It appears that the entire unit needs to be replaced when the blades get dull.
On the plus side, they include a second (replacement) head unit. So when the blades do wear out, at least you can replace them one time without worrying about where to get a replacement. But it may turn out that when the shaving heads wear out, you may be better off just replacing the entire kit. It's not clear to me where you purchase replacement heads.
In terms of feel, the shape is comfortable in the hand, and features a nice rubberized coating that enhances stability.
Pros:
** 3 floating rotary head design works well on the neck and trouble areas
** IPX6 waterproof
** Decent battery life
** Lock mode and head cover for travel
** Includes extra replacement shaving head
Cons:
** Not clear where to get replacement heads and the cost thereof
** Does not use standard USB-C charge port", "label": 1}

With the color changing lights, it functions as a pretty little lamp. It also functions as a sound machine. Its third function is a a bluetooth speaker. I'll discuss them in turn. The power button, light button and three volume controls ( - , pause/play, and + ) are all located on the front of the machine. The sound button and the timer button are located on the bottom of the machine. LAMP FUNCTION: As a lamp, there are five programs, accessed in sequence by pushing the light button on the far right of the front of the lamp. The programs are: 1) fast color change, 2) move to the beat, 3) slow fade color transition, 4) night light, and 5) lights off. Though there are many light colors, you cannot stop on any particular color but instead can only see either a fast or a slow continuous rotation through them all. The exception is #4, the night light, which is only available golden yellow. As a stand alone light, my favorite setting is 3, the slow fade color transition. It is so peaceful to watch, and is absolutely mesmerizing to me, especially when the house is dark. Setting 2 works best connected to bluetooth, but will also change colors and intensities to the sound machine selections, and it's definitely cool to watch on the rain/thunderstorm setting. SOUND MACHINE FUNCTION: There are five sound programs that are accessible by using the controls on the bottom of the speaker. The programs are 1) rain, 2) fire, 3) meditation, 4) fan, 5) ocean, 6) sound off. They have to be accessed in order. The fire program doesn't sound anything like a crackling fire to me, it sounds like very high pitched tinkling. I didn't like this one at all, although I would have liked it if it had actually sounded like fire. The meditation program is a very soothing new age kind of sound that I like a lot, and I also like the rain which includes lots of thunder, and the ocean. I'm not much for white noise, but the fan would be pleasing to those who are. I thought the sound was amazingly clear and sharp for such a tiny little machine. Sound can be played continuously, or the timer button on the bottom of the machine can be pushed to choose an auto-off of 30, 60, or 90 minutes. BLUETOOTH SPEAKER: It was amazingly easy to connect bluetooth, and I tried it on a number of different types of music using my iPod as the music source. I was pleased with how this little speaker sounded with each music selection I played. While this is obviously not going to match the high fidelity sound of my expensive home sound system, I feel it performed quite well. Note: if the power button is held for two seconds and the blinking blue light is on, indicating the speaker is ready to pair to bluetooth, the speaker will automatically shut down after two minutes if it is not paired with bluetooth. If I change my mind about connecting to bluetooth after the blue light is flashing, I can just press the power button rapidly and the blinking blue light will go away and I will return to normal speaker mode. Also, if the speaker is paired to bluetooth and is paused for 15 minutes or more, the speaker will automatically shut down. I find that the more I use this little sound machine, the more I like it, and am content with its limitations. The slowly fading lights and a soft mediation program in the background with this little machine sitting on the corner of my computer desk at home is just perfect for me, and I am glad I ordered this machine.", "label": 1}

I'm a 24 year old male, about 6ft tall, and about 185 pounds. I have been deployed for 3 months now working 12 hours a day 7 days a week, I have been eating healthy, and working out about 6-7 times a week. In 3 months I went from 208lbs to 185lbs with good diet and P90X/Running. I seemed to have hit a plateau now that I can't get past. I may be at a fairly comfortable weight, but I still have a bit of a gut and good amount of flab/loose skin im trying to lose. I started a heavy lifting routine lately and I have been doing a lot of high rep ab work. I hope this product will help me tighten up my core and lose my love handles. I noticed some of these reviews here look like bullcrap, but my review will be legit. I will post my progress after a week of use.
Today is Day 4 using the product. Very good results thus far. On day 1 I took 1 pill in the morning with breakfast and felt a the energy boost within 10 minutes. It does seem to be a good lasting energy for about 6 hours or so. Since Day 2 I have been taking 1 pill at 5:00am and then another at 11:00am since my work day is 12 hours everyday. I haven't had any problems going to sleep since I don't go to bed until 8:00pm. I am mainly trying to burn off stubborn weight, but I actually probably had more water weight than I thought. I went from 184 down to 180 in just 3 days! By the way I weigh myself at the same time every day to ensure accuracy. So far so good I am hoping to see more visible results along my midsection, maybe I will be able to see my 6 pack that is hiding under flabby loose skin from weight loss. I will continue to report my status.
Day 4 Post work out im down to 179lbs! Today was Back & Biceps and 20 minutes of cardio. I found myself sweating a TON today so be cautious of dehydration. If you use this product and then workout in he morning make sure you hydrate plenty before bed, even enough to make you have to get up and pee in the middle of the night.

First thing I noticed was that this stuff was \"REEE---HEALY EXPENSIVE\"!!!!
I pulled a bottle of generic multi vitamins out of my cupboard to compare ingredients and cost.
My generic multi vitamin & mineral supp cost approx. 4 cents a serving.
Beyond Tangy Tangarine approx. cost a WHOPPING $2.50 a serving for a 100lb person!!!!!
WTF !!! This couldn't be true so we checked our math and our numbers were correct.
HOLY CRAP!!! These vitamins were like SIX THOUSAND PERCENT more expensive!!!
After more research it turns out that Beyond Expensive ... I mean ... Beyond Tangy Tangerine is part of some kind of selling plan where the sales people can win \"Dream Cars and Vacations\" for conning lots of people into buying the stuff. This looks to be a Hard Core Sales Business complete with Celebrity Endorsers pushing this stuff on the trusting public.
My buddy decided against taking on another monthly car payment by buying this stuff and was more than a little embarrassed he was almost suckered by a cheezy sales pitch based on deception.
If you have a bottle of Multi Vitamins laying around you can go to the company's website and compare the Supplement Facts in less than 5 minutes for FREE. Below is the Comparison we did between the two Fact Sheets.

Beyond Tangy Tangarine----------$2.50---------------------------------21
COSTCO generic daily multi-------$0.04 (yes 4 cents)----------------24
As for effortlessly losing weight and increasing energy by just chuggin the stuff, I visited CONSUMER REPORTS website and they had this to say about vitamin supplements:
\"IGNORE SPECIAL CLAIMS AND ADD-ONS. CLAIMS FOR BENEFITS SUCH AS WEIGHT CONTROL OR INCREASED ENERGY ARE GENERALLY UNSUBSTANTIATED.\"
THE BOTTOMLINE: If I were you I would grab my wallet and run as far away from this product and the people associated with it as I could !!!
As far as your health is concerned, from my own personal experience I have enjoyed excellent health by:
(1) doing some type of exercise with music every day,
(2) eating real (unprocessed) food every day
(3) taking a generic U.S.P. certified multivitamin & mineral supplement every day.
UPDATE: I was curious about all the \"glowing\" five star reviews for Beyond Tangy Tangerine here on Amazon so I looked a little deeper at the reviewers themselves.
The majority have ONLY ONE product review in their profile, that being Beyond Tangy Tangerine. Contrast this with the profiles of \"one star\" reviewers who have many, many product reviews in their profiles.
And of the few \"five star\" reviewers with more than one review in their profiles, many entered all their reviews on the same day!!!
My only conclusion is that nearly ALL of the five star reviews for this product are FAKE or SHILL REVIEWS!!! Not only is this product grossly over-priced but the people selling it are using DECEPTION here on Amazon to pump up its customer rating.

My personal experience
-=-=-=-=-=-
I started out by taking 1 pill with my first 3 meals for 2 days and no other supplements except my daily Vitamin C pill. I didn't see much in terms of feeling anything unusual with my energy nor appetite. It's possible that it could take more time. So I upped the dose to 2 pills per meal. After the 2nd meal (lunch) I did feel that I wasn't as hungry around dinner and didn't have a post lunch zzz monster attack :D
On the 2nd day of taking 2 pills per meal. I noticed that I didn't feel like I was starving before the next meal. I didn't feel tired or sluggish and at the same time, I didn't get any jitters typically associated with taking caffeine based diet pills. There was no peak rush nor was there a wear-out period where I would be exhausted. Overall it felt very natural and balance and I was able to curb a lot of my cravings. Sure I ate a piece of hard candy here and there but I wasn't craving to snack in between meals. I finished out the bottle roughly at 9 days (skipped out 1.5 days because I was out of town). I wish there were more pills left so I could do an actual 30-day review.
My results at the end of the trial was I had more energy and less cravings. There was no urge for a late night snack which is great! In terms of weight loss... I didn't notice much except about 2 lbs but that could be water weight or small fluctuations. I think a 30 day supply would have better weight results.
Would I buy this product again? YES! but only if it was sold at about $8 a bottle or less. At $18 a bottle on a 30 day supply = $108 which is waaaaay too much for this product. At their retail price of $40 per bottles ridiculous. SUPPLIER I HOPE YOU READ THIS! I almost left 3 stars on this review based on the unattractive price but thought it would not be fair to your company.
Full disclosure: I bought this product at a significant discounted price for an honest review. Please not that when it comes to supplements etc., each person reacts differently to the products. I hope that my experience has given you an idea of what to expect. I hope you enjoyed my review and please respond if you have any questions.", "label": 1}

COLD SPIZ WORKS BETTER
It seems common sense that drinking a cold drink on a hot day would work better in terms of performance than a lukewarm drink........right?: Well I have been telling athletes to drink SPIZ as cold as possible for years during training or competition because I was pretty sure that would create a lower core body temperature which would enhance athletic performance under hot weather conditions. Well a study looking to scientifically answer that questioned was performed and published in the Medicine & Science, Sports & Exercise journal a few years back.
These researchers took eight healthy moderately active subjects who were NOT use to heat. These men were asked to cycle to the point of exhaustion in a laboratory set at 95 degrees Fahrenheit and 60% humidity. Every 3 minutes the subjects were asked to cycle a little faster and every 10 minutes they were given a beaker containing 100 ml of sugar free lemonade. One one occasion the temperature of the lemonade was 39 degrees Fahrenheit (cold) and on the other occasion the lemonade was 98 degrees (lukewarm).
The results revealed the subjects could cycle 63.8 minutes when drinking the cold lemonade and 52 minutes drinking the lukewarm lemonade on average. From the 30th minute on the skin temperature of the cold lemonade drinkers was 0.4 degrees cooler (confirming core body temperatures had to be lower as well) and their level of perceived exertion (another way of saying fatigue) was also significantly less across the 63.8 minute cycle time.
So this proves that drinking any sports drink including SPIZ as cold as possible will improve your performance and create less fatigue, in the above example just 3 degrees above freezing. That may be difficult in certain unsupported exercise conditions, but if you can use insulated bottles and add some ice when you mix your SPIZ up and drink it cold while exercising in warm or hot weather conditions.......you can expect to see a 10 -15% improvement in your race time.
That is huge of course!!
Until the next time may the breeze be always at your back!
Happy Independence Day!

It started out so nicely. It connected to my home network consisting of two Cisco Aironet 1252 WAPs (running a WPA2 key) using the OSX installer from my laptop. It worked great. We all used it for about three weeks.
Then, it started saying it couldn't sync. Nothing had changed in the network config or topology. So, I decided to try to put it into setup mode and have it re-connect. It was never able to \"re-connect.\"
I used a packet sniffer, as well as turning on debugging on the Aironets, and found that the device was actually able to successfully connect to the wifi network, to the point of getting a DHCP assignment, sending a few frames to the internet, and getting a few response frames from fitbit. It then continued to say it was unable to sync.
Customer service, to whom I provided a pcap file and cisco debug logs showing what was happening, was not at all helpful, although friendly, they only were able to offer the sort of inane technical help you have probably come to expect.. things along the lines of move the scale, replace the batteries, etc (all of which i did, with the expected lack of change in behavior).
I gave up on it for a few weeks, and then decided to try again and do a deeper packet dive into the exchange it was having. I used a desktop mac to try to get it out of setup mode, and failed. With the install utility, it was able to talk to the scale, but it never got it back out of setup mode. I eventually got it to get out of setup mode after failing with the installer on my osx desktop, failing with the web installer on my osx desktop in various browsers, failing with the installer on my laptop (which had worked previously), and failing with the web installer on my laptop unless i was using safari. Finally, having gotten it to move beyond the \"setup\" screen, it absolutely refused to advance (or to provide any feedback that it was failing to advance) beyond the attach to network stage, the same network and same config which had originally worked fine.
Eventually, I pointed it to a cheap netlogic WAP that I happened to have set up and unprotected for some unrelated testing work. From the laptop only, from safari only, it finally attached to the network. I've decided to leave that junky WAP online for now & unprotected just to keep the scale online.
In summary, if you can get this thing to work, and if you can get it to remain working even though it may appear to be working originally, it is a great product. Good luck with that, though.. this is seriously some of the worst QA'd hardware/software I have worked with in many years, excepting the junk that comes from China.
Finally, I have an offer for fitbit. I live in the bay area. I have your product here. I am a network engineer with an EE & CS background. It still cannot attach to my home production network. Send someone over for dinner. I will feed them, and then show them & happily let them debug what is clearly a major set of QA issues with your product, in my house. I can & will help with the debugging, packet capture and analysis, and trying alternate configs to isolate the issues that so many customers are having. Seriously. I want this thing to work, I spend good money on it, and it presently does not. I am also not, by any means, the only person experiencing these issues. So, here is a live testbed for you to fix your broken firmware & installers. Please, please, take me up on this offer. Thanks!", "label": 0}

First of all, let me start off by saying the customer service is WONDERFUL! They get back with you promptly if you email them with any questions or concerns. Overall they are just super helpful and interested in giving you the best experience.
Now on to the product...
I have very sensitive combination skin. It's always either too oily, too dry, or oily and flaky at the same time, and always accompanied by blemishes. No matter how many hundreds of dollars I've spent on skin care in the last couple of years, over the counter or high end- nothing could help my condition. Recently, as I was looking on Amazon for a cleansing facial brush such as Clarisonic, feeling defeated and being overwhelmed with the price as well as numerous, negative reviews, I started looking elsewhere and accidently came upon Beaute La Royale and am so thankful I did... Here's why:
The small facial brush is perfect. It's bristles are soft to the touch but clean very well. I first tried it with my DermaDoctor face wash but seeing no results, I decided to try it with Aveeno active naturals clear complexion foaming cleanser because it's a bit more mild and gentle (and $40 cheaper) ;). In doing so, given about 2 weeks, I already saw GREAT results. I had barely any breakouts (if at all), and my skin over-all looked more smooth and vibrant. My pores notably shrunk and blackheads started to disappear! After 5 years of acne and hundreds of different products and countless hours of time trying out/applying, here I am $30 in and 2 weeks later, with my skin problems basically solved. I'm so happy! To prove the effectiveness of this brush even more, I went 2 weeks on vacation without using the brush (still using the Aveeno foaming cleanser but applying with just hands), and I haven't had this many blemishes at one time in a very long while after using my brush, and my pores have visibly expanded, leaving my skin looking tired and dull. With that being said, the positive results have definitely come from the brush!
I've seen reviews of people not quite happy with the one speed option, but with my experience I wouldn't want it any slower or faster. It deeply cleanses your pores thus removing bacteria and dirt, clearing up problem skin and blemishes, but doesn't leave your skin irritated and inflamed (and this is coming from a girl with EXTREMELY sensitive skin). So I would not worry about the speed. It's not designed as a power took. If anything it might be a tad too fast, so be sure not to use pressure when using the brush. Gently use circular motions on your face and let the brush do the work for you.
The other 3 features are also very helpful. I love the feeling of the sponge on my face- very gentle and soothing. I use it to put on my night face cream. The body brush is wonderful for removing cellulite, and I also have eczema so with further use I am excited to see if that helps me with the large "dots" and flaky/itchiness. I use the pumice for exfoliating my heels, etc. and it does a very good job. It is not so rough that it hurts, but gets the job done.
Again, the customer service is so good! You will not be disappointed with this product and the extensive results! You will fall in love - no matter your skin type!!!
Thank you Beaute La Royale!!!", "label": 1}

I've been using various brands of collagen peptides for almost three years - mostly type I & III. I can't be 100% clinically certain, but collagen peptides seem to have done a lot of good for the health of my gut - so I'm definitely a fan.
The Ketond Collagen Peptides arrives in a resealable 7.4oz plastic jar. In my case, it was completely unlabeled - I assume, because it was a new product released to me for early Amazon Vine review. That said, I prefer plastic jars over bags for collagen peptides as they offer the easiest, fuss-free usage. There is a fairly small plastic serving scoop in the jar.
According to the product description here (since my jar had no label), this is a type I & III collagen peptides. According to the question that I asked of the manufacturer, \"the collagen ingredients are from the USA and the product is also manufactured in the USA.\" The description also states that the product is from \"grass-fed, pasture-raised, Grade A bovine, and are certified hormone-free and 100% non-GMO.\" That is all very good.
Probably unlike most people who add collagen peptides to liquid for consumption, such as coffee, I tend to add them directly to my meals whenever possible. However, for the purpose of this review, I tested this Ketond collagen peptides in both hot and cold liquids. It dissolved as quickly as some of the fastest dissolving peptides I've used in the past, such as [[ASIN:B00XQ2XGAA Sports Research]] or [[ASIN:B07BL69CD2 Orgain]]. Like most collagen peptides, it dissolves notably faster in hot liquids than cold. In my experience, all unflavored collagen peptides add some very subtle flavor, usually similar to a very, very weak salt. This is no exception. Depending on what you put it in, you may or may not be able to detect it.
In all honesty, I tend to purchase the cheapest collagen peptides I can per ounce and stock up when I see sales. There are huge price differences between various brands and aside from subtle differences in they way they dissolve, I seriously doubt there is much actual difference in the efficacy at different price points when compared with other type I & III peptides. I am willing to pay a higher price for the more complete type I, II, III, V & X peptides. I try to get certified grass fed whenever possible and would never purchase *any* labelled to have *anything* to do with China.
As of the time of this review, this Ketond Collagen Peptides is on the very expensive side per ounce at $4.05. I've seen some good collagen peptides that I've used for as low as $1.09/ounce. I've seen others at well over $2/ounce, such as this brand. Based on the price alone, which is really high for a type I & III peptides powder, I'd give this three stars. I'll give it an extra star because it dissolves quickly, if that's important to you. That said, at well under this price point you can easily get a superior type I, II, III, V & X collagen peptides.", "label": 1}

So I love foot massages and I have very bad circulation in my feet so when I ordered this I couldn\u2019t wait for it to arrive. It came, I took a shower, plugged it in, sat down, put my feet in, set the settings and picked up my PS4 controller and started playing while my feet were getting massaged. It has a setting for how much compression you want, I had it on low at first, it has a heat or no heat , I used heat, and it has a pressure button and I put it at it\u2019s lowest. I wasn\u2019t feeling it much so I turned it all the way up on everything. Let me say here I have a size 9 in women\u2019s feet and they are not thick and have a normal arch. So I\u2019m sitting there playing CoD and I feel it getting tighter and then it starts really getting into my right foot near that ball part near the middle coming off the big toe(sorry if that\u2019s a bad description) and it\u2019s making me say oh and stuff and my fianc\u00e9 is laughing at me, I actually had to stop playing my game cause it felt so good and I couldn\u2019t concentrate, it felt amazing, I did that for about 10 mins, it got in deep and my right foot was feeling especially happy, the blood was flowing and it felt like it was just so relaxed and happy. I didn\u2019t stop though, I moved my foot in so it would get my arch more( the massager for some reason doesn\u2019t have a massager directly where your arch is which is disappointing cause that\u2019s where you want it massages the most) so its massaging me and my left foot is happy too, but my right is the foot that hurts most usually. So I do that for another 5 mins and let my fianc\u00e9 try it out. He has thick, high arch feet. He didn\u2019t feel it as well as I did but when I turned it al the way up he liked it but no where near as much as I did. Anyways I went to bed my feet feeling amazing, my blood flowing in them, just super happy and excited for this new foot massager. I wake up and go to stand up and my right foot is super bruised on the bottom, I over worked it lol but it was worth it. A week later my foot is about healed and I\u2019ve tried to still use the massager while bruised but it hurt too much, it was a deep bruise so the machine gets deep and gets in there and works it out. I used it on my left foot while my right foot heals though still. So please don\u2019t take this negative as in it doesn\u2019t work because I\u2019ve had foot massages and back massages by people that were so deep I was in pain cause you gotta get deep to get the kinks out and blood flowing. The way my feet felt after the first massage was well worth the bruise cause even for days after my foot still had better circulation. So I\u2019ll continue using this great massager. It does have a few flaws like the arch. It could get warmer cause honestly I don\u2019t feel heat at all and even put my hand in it. Maybe if it was adjustable so people with wider or thicker feet cause if you have bigger feet you can\u2019t slide them out the front so you cant get the full effect. I like the compression and the massaging. It does what I want and fits me perfectly aside from the arches. So I like this a lot but I can see if you don\u2019t have the correct size feet how this wouldn\u2019t work for everyone. I think it\u2019s for smaller less thick feet.", "label": 1}

First, some information on sizing to hopefully save someone else some of the same hassle that I had...
If you go to the manufacturer's website, you will notice that they sell two products that look like this. They sell the "Prenatal Cradle" (non-adjustable) and then they sell this, which is actually called the "Best Cradle" and is adjustable.
According to their website, sizing information for this product is as follows:
Size | pre-pregnancy pant size | current Weight
Small | 3-10 | 90-165
Medium | 8-16 | 150-220
Large | 14-20 | 180-250
I was size 6 pre-pregnancy and had weighed about 150 at 22 weeks when I ordered this (I'm pregnant with twins, starting weight was 130) - I actually ordered according to the size of the wrong product and the small at that time juuuust fit me at the largest setting. I exchanged it for the medium (thanks Amazon!) and that was a much better fit.
I am 5'6", currently 160 (+30 lbs) and the cradle fits very comfortably on the middle settings.
Pro's:
- I have been wearing this all day, every day and I'm pretty sure this is saving both my back and helping to keep pressure off of my cervix (which is definitely more of a concern with twins) I'm currently at 28 weeks and feeling quite good. At first I started to take it off before dinner (I thought it was adding to my acid reflux) but found on those occasions my sciatic nerves started acting up. (Not much, but enough that I've not taken this thing off since!)
Con's:
- There are three settings for this, and each is about 3" apart making it very inconvenient if you happen to be between two. I've purchased some additional hooks that I may try to sew on if I need to move up a setting, but this seems like it's going to be a royal pain to adjust so I'm holding out and hoping it won't be necessary!
- It does show under your top. Personally I don't care, because I'd rather have the support! You could easily cover it up with an under shirt, but that is going to get somewhat hot in summer. You also might be able to adjust it a bit by taking out the seam in the "x" in the front and sewing it up further down. It feels like it's been sewn a little bit high (on me anyway), I just haven't found the time to attempt it!
- I have found that the strap in front can get irritating by the end of the day. If you have full tummy pants, just put the brace on top - yes, you will then have to re-adjust every time you use the bathroom, but this is not a big deal. I also have been using a "tummy sleeve" for those pants that don't go up far enough and that works well. In the summer, though, I expect this will get hot.
That feels like a lot of cons, but the bottom line is that it is comfortable, I like wearing it and it really feels like it's helping! I've been wearing it for about a month now, and it's the first thing I put on in the morning and the last thing that I take off.
Only 4 stars because there are some very easy fixes that they could make to make it even better!", "label": 1}

Why are we FORCED to even putting 1 when you're really upset? Sorry, back on topic..ok, so Like customer A. Crame that wrote a review and posted pics, since he already posted the pics I will just say I had the same problem. Looking at them at first they looked like they were made well and I was really excited for them. When they finally arrived I was anything EXCEPT excited or happy. It's liked they were processed and manufactured on warp speed which made for missing parts, you could see the glue along the edges, and the best part. The 1st one I picked up actually looked good. At this point I was still excited although I did question myself because i SWORE I bought a 12 pack of these however maybe they're sending the rest of the order on another day? Anyways, my dog came upat this point because 90% of the time packages are toys or treats for them, so she sits next to me looking at this thing like what is it and can I eat or play with it..I explain that it's mine and proceeded to grab one of the bottles and filled it up with sanitizer and grab the bracelet put the tube inside and squeezed, instead of it going inside the bracelet like it was suppose to, it did the opposite. It was like my bracelet projectiled vomited and the sanitizer backfired and goes every DIRECTION EXCEPT the way it was suppose to go. Now my dog is NOT happy not just with me but with this bottle and bracelet as well. As she jumps up to grab one of them I grab them both in my hand as now I've got sanitizer dripping off if me and down my arms, and my pants have wet spots as if I couldn't make it to the bathroom in time, which now add the factor that the person I'm interested in had walked in and seen me and now also thinks I couldn't make it to the bathroom in time and thinks that why I have the sanitizer so I could clean up from my accident. So needless to say, these so called bracelets that LOOKS well made and etc, just know this and keep in mind that unless you want something that looks as though it's going to fall apart, is cheaply made, and (from what I found out after the fact) never made any holes FOR the sanitizer to go in, and like to order and buy things and have missing or defective parts, then by all means HECK YES. THIS IS YOUR CHOICE. But if not than I suggest waiting and looking around more at similar products, or wait until this brand/seller fixes all the issues going on.we will see if how good of a company they are with if they reply and what they will say AND do to resolve this issue AND VERY DISAPPOINTED customer.", "label": 0}

Its fluid relationship with the truth is like being lied to by a cheating boyfriend about your weight every day. I ask it, "is my booty getting big?" and step on like a fool so it can tell me, "No, honey. You're as thin and beautiful as you were yesterday. And the day before. And the day before. And the day before that. No really. Exactly as thin and beautiful. Exactly. Exactly the same weight. To the ounce. You're holding a bowling ball now? Well, then that must mean that you're *losing* weight! Congratulations! Now go make me a sandwich."
Sadly, I have found this scale to be incapable of registering more than one reading per rough pound of body mass. If you're 102 lbs, give or take, it will tell you you're 102.4 until you edge up another half a pound or so, and then you'll jump up to register as 103.6. Never 103.2, 103.4, 103.8, it only knows 103.6. Adjust your footing and you're mysteriously and miraculously at exactly the same 102.4 from the day prior. Take off shoes or heavy clothing or put down your gargantuan smartphone whose manufacturer specs clock at half a pound in its kevlar advanced bomb suit case and see no change on the display. Not even a fraction of a pound. Pick up your purse and discover that it will cycle through the single weight it knows for each one-pound increment until it settles on its half-hearted guess. Put your purse back down and it refunds all that weight to you, save for one pound that is maybe some sort of rounding error or restocking fee, I'm not sure. Step off and back on and you're at your "original" weight, presumably having burned off that pesky pound doing step aerobics on your scale in search of an accurate reading.
Losing some weight? No you're not. Or maybe you are. It's a mystery. That 195.6 lb reading gotten by the second party tester you brought in to see if the scale would be more cooperative with another user will suddenly drop to 192.4, where it will stay until another pound or more is shed, and it will tell you then that he may or may not have moved into the next one-pound weight class. Or wait until he has a tantrum and shifts his left foot, at which point it will show another lost pound while mocking you under its breath.
I know that accuracy isn't that big a deal or terribly reliable with home bathroom scales, but this one truly seems like it's not even trying and is outright incapable of registering anything but preprogrammed weights, one per pound. I have no idea what I weigh right this second, but I know my doctor's office and gym scales agree that this one is playing head games with me. Either that, or I am gaining and losing brain mass trying to compute mathematical and histographical averages all the time in an attempt to divine my true weight from the scale that lives in my bathroom.

The \"On\" button is actually a reset button for the internal thermal circuit breaker. [Note that many power strips also have a circuit breaker reset \"switch\" instead of a real On/Off switch.] When the water is boiled down close to dry, the thermal breaker activates, cutting off the power. In other words, it knows when to turn itself off. If you want to shut it off mid-cycle, you need to pull the plug. The On reset switch is easily bumped when handling the distiller, resetting it. So when you go to plug it in, you may mistakenly think that it is \"always on\" and somehow defective.
In use, it is preferable to boil water in a teakettle, and fill the distiller with the hot water, as it will save time and probably be more cost effective if you have a gas stove and gas costs less than electricity where you are. Then put the cover on and plug the wires in. And press the On reset button if it is not already reset. The bottom section boils the water, and the cover has a fan which pulls air from the sides, over heat dissipating fins that cool a section of coiled stainless steel tubing, and through the top, causing the steam in the tubing to condense and drip out the end. There is a small \"cup\" containing a small charcoal sachet that the distilled water drips through. That's the part in the photo that pokes out the side of the cover. The stainless steel cup is supposed to be removable for cleaning or changing the charcoal sachet, but it is quite difficult to do, because it fits very tightly. The distilled water drips into a plastic bottle that is included. The bottle is designed with the proper height to accept the drops, and it would be difficult to locate your own pitcher or other substitute container that would fit and hold the volume of water needed. The downside is that the container is plastic, which purists would find objectionable. The bottle is welded from two halves, with a prominent vertical seam. The threads at the bottle top are not completely formed, so water will leak if the full bottle is tilted even with the cap screwed on.
After the initial use, I found that there was some leftover polishing or buffing compound on the internal shiny stainless steel surfaces. They had to be cleaned off with soapy water, alcohol, & detergent in succession. (Incidentally, I have found that new stainless teakettles sold at Macys may also have the same \"feature\" of not having been thoroughly cleaned of polishing compounds on the internal surfaces, either.) At the end of each cycle, unplug the cords, and remove the cover. But don't do this immediately after the unit shuts off, or you will be burned by escaping steam. You will be surprised by the dirty residue at the bottom of the boiling vessel. That's the stuff you were drinking all those years! Pour about a quarter inch of vinegar on it, and let it sit awhile. For my first gallon of vinegar, the residue came off and dissolved in the vinegar easily. For my second gallon of vinegar, additional brushing was needed; I suspect that the vinegar being sold today is weaker (the first bottle was an old one, the second one newly bought).
Overall, the unit is built to do its job pretty well, but the cosmetics leave room for improvement. The electricals are very good quality, but the product was not assembled in a clean room and the workers didn't wear gloves. But the design is robust and the seal between the cover and boiling vessel is quite good, and they didn't skimp on the stainless steel.", "label": 1}

I remember when the doctor told me that I was devastated. I wasn't even really sure what it was or how bad it was. I started studying very hard to see if there was a solution (this was in 2012). One day it hit me. My sister had given me this book but I blew it off. Then, I took things into my own hands and did exactly as the diet suggested.
The first 3 weeks were, one week nothing but water and carrot juice. Next week the same but with apple juice. Oh and herbs that cleanse and strengthen the body. The third week with grape juice. Week 4 would be back to carrot juice. Week 5 apple. Week 6 grape. But, at the beggining of week 4 you can start introducing fruits, vegetables, grains. I even started eating fish once a week.
I continued doing that for about three months. I was already in decent shape. I had been training for a marathon, however while doing the diet I stopped running. The funny thing is even though I stopped running I could easily go out and run ten miles and not be sore the next day. This is when I was in my early 50's.
After 3 months I went back to the doctor and did some blood tests the week before. He came into the room and I was crossing my fingers that my white blood cell count was down. He came in and said, \"we're not sure what you have. Your white blood count is almost back to normal.\" I just about fell out of my chair. I did several more check ups and my health was great. I found out something I never knew. All my life I couldn't breathe very well in spite of being in sports. It used to take me a few miles of jogging slow before my airways would open up and then I could take off and run. After a few months my lungs cleared up and I didn't need to warm up. I could just take off. I've often wondered since then that maybe I had light asthma. But now it was gone.
Well, it's been about eight years. I got lax and only did the diet about 2 years. In those times I never felt better or happier. I don't know the terms too well but the chemical that gets released in the brain that makes you feel happy, I felt that beautiful feeling everyday.
I would gladly suggest this program to anyone especially if you are up against a tough problem. I'd say if you were diagnosed with some kind of cancer that if you did this program it would help tremendously to help your bodies ability to fight it. I won't say it cures cancer because I know that's a drastic statement to make in the medical and health world.
I think if you try it you will see miracles. One caution is I see a lot of reviews where people say they tried variations or portions of the diet. Please go all in with this diet and you will see miracles and you will be happy to see your health get tremendously better.
Best of luck.

-- ABOUT BRUSH HAIR STRAIGHTENERS --
They have a triple action system: they detangle, straighten and increase natural hair shine. They seal the hair cuticle reducing frizziness and increasing hair manageability.
Since their launch on the market in the last quarter of 2015, some major design improvements were developed. Here are few things to watch out for, when you\u2019re looking to buy a hair brush straightener:
1) Ceramic coating vs iron vs plastic \u2013 this is a no brainer, since you want to have maximum hair protection when applying heat: always opt for Ceramic!

- What to look for in a hair straightening brush?
If you have frizzy, unruly hair, a hair straightening brush may help you tame it and make it more manageable. Hair straightening brushes helps you achieve silky, smooth hair just like a standard hair straightener or flat iron but without the damage. They\u2019re growing in popularity because people find them effective and convenient to use.", "label": 1}

The 33 patients were comprised of 6 men and 27 women, and the study was performed in keeping with the tenets of the Helsinki Accord, with written Informed Consent forms. This study was performed as a double-blind trial involving 6-week oral administration of \u201cfunctional supplements\u201d containing rice-derived Ceramides or a placebo.
The test supplement was given in the form of soft capsules provided by Oryza Oil & Fat Chemical Co., Ltd., with a daily consumption of rice-derived Oryza Ceramide, 40 mg/day, containing rice-derived sphingolipids of 1.2mg/day. Placebo capsules were administered that were identical in appearanceand smell, but containing 0 mg/day of rice-derived Oryza Cerarnide and 0 mg/day of rice-derived sphingolipids. After the 6-week trial period, no subjects had dropped out and no adverse events were reported. Other evidence of the safety of ingested Ceramides is also presented in this study:
Experiments have shown that after oral administration plant-based ceramides are absorbed unchanged in the small intestine or are broken down into sphingosine and fatty acids for absorption and are then reconfigured as ceramides. The substance is then transported by the capillaries into the horny layer and the keratin intercellular spaces. The supplements containing rice ceramides as used in this study, in contrast to the ceramide substances distributed in animal brains, provide superior supplementation that can be exnected to be both safe and effective for oral administration.
Confirming this assessment is Lati, who as early as 1995 wrote about the use of ceramides in functional foods:
Ceramide has been highly appraised in the field of functional foods because of its hydration characteristics and vectorization of vitamins (vitamin C and E). Presently phyto-ceramides by INOCOSM [Laboratories] are used as ingredients for various functional and cosmeceutical foods. Because of its hydration characteristics, ceramide is most extensively used in this field, and it is generally used together with vitamins. Ceramide has shown numerous benefits as a food additive because of its very unique characteristics, and it is effective not only for the tissues but also for the stabilization of foods in some cases. If a certain amount of phyto-ceramide is ingested every day, the following benefits could be attained:
- Because ceramide suppresses free radicals, ceramide can enhance the protection
of tissues from external harmful effects (pollution, sunshine,and stress).
- Ceramide moisturizes the skin by its hydration capability.
- Ceramide achieves wrinkle prevention by its elastase suppression and collagen protection.
. . . On the other hand, if ceramide is added to drinks for the benefit of the tissues, ceramide can also stabilize hydrophobic flavoring ingredients and hydrophobic molecules (vitamins) by vectorization. These conclusions are based in part on Lati\u2019s 1995 study which concludes that phyto- ceramides taken orally improve the hydration of the skin. The phyto-ceramides were given at an amount of 20 mg/day for a month. No adverse effects or events were reported.

It is made from the hull and germ of rice; this is the part that is shaved off to yield white rice. Taking out this nutrient dense part of course gives white rice a long shelf life but also makes it lacking in essential nutrients. Two servings of most rice bran products will give you loads of B vitamins, vitamin E and almost your recommended daily allowance of Magnesium and Phosphorus. In addition it has an immune booster called Inositol hexaphosphate. I prefer getting my essential nutrients from food sources and not from pills if possible.
My experience with this product (the tub is almost finished) is that it mixes very well with my morning smoothie and actually gives it a sweet taste (not overpowering), it does have a mild energizing effect. So why have I given this product 1 star? I will actually five it zero star if possible.
I did some research recently showing that since rice is planted in water logged land, it is more susceptible to arsenic toxicity. The water enhances the absorption of the arsenic and other toxins. More arsenic has been found in the hull and germ of brown rice compared to white rice. Also, rice grown in the Southern U.S. is commonly exposed to inorganic arsenic which is still found in the soils there from past use of inorganic arsenic based pesticides. Places like California never used inorganic arsenic based pesticides therefore the arsenic taken up by the rice grown in California is naturally occurring.
I had bought Nutra Bio Stabilized Bran, Bob's Red Mill, Stabilized Rice Bran, Natural Traditions Rice Bran & Germ Powder at some point or another (all at different stages of being finished). I was also considering buying Sunfood Tocotrienols/Rice Bran Solubles. So based on my research on potential arsenic toxicity, I decided to write to all the companies to confirm the source of their rice bran and if they did any third party lab testing. I sent my enquiry more than two weeks ago, up till now, I haven\u2019t received any response from Bob's Red Mill and Natural traditions. Nutra Bio responded saying \u201cwe are unsure as to what part of the country that the Stabilized Rice Bran comes from. We are also unsure as to what the international safe levels for arsenic are\u201d. I was aghast! Arsenic is probably the number one carcinogenic toxin. The only third party testing that Nutra Bio sent to me was a 2014 test and their customer service said additionally about the 2014 tests that \u201cthe tests that we have are the most up-to-date tests that we have. Until they are out of date, we are still authorized by the FDA to use those tests\u201d. Sunfood response says their rice bran is sourced from California, but the third party tests sent did not show the level of \u2018inorganic arsenic\u2019 which is the real culprit.
These are the probably the top brands of rice bran in the market, and in my own assessment they fall short by their response or lack of it. If you take a rice product, be aware of arsenic poisoning. Unfortunately the supplement is not strictly regulated and these manufacturers, just like \u2018Big Pharma\u2019 are out to get your hard earned money, they really don\u2019t care about your health and that of your family. Please do your research. Despite the huge benefits from rice bran, I will be discontinuing its use until I can get a manufacturer that sells an organic variety with third party lab tests for every batch. Hope this helps someone out there.", "label": 0}

I got this book because I've really only found about 5 or 6 keto recipes that are desserts or baked items that I like, and three of them are Carolyn's. They are her garlic bread sticks from her soup cookbook, her almond crusted butter cake (blog), and her scotcheroos (blog). They are all amazing! I have tried several things from this book, but still have many more to try. There are several that I haven't liked and several that I have liked. I will go over what I have tried.
I started out with the rum cake because it was around Christmas. It was pretty good but not good enough to finish the whole cake because I love rum cake and it just wasn't the same. I've learned that with keto treats it's usually better for me not to try to replicate things that I love in the non-keto version because they rarely compare. Having said that, I tried the banana bread and it was amazing! It was so much like real banana bread that I couldn't believe it! The chia seed trick really made a difference! I would buy this book just for that recipe!
In general, I hate keto cookies! I love real cookies and the texture of keto cookies is always awful. I love gooey, chewy cookies and most keto cookies taste like cake. And not very good cake either. I've tried at least 10 keto cookies and ended up throwing them out, so I didn't make any of her normal cookies. They sounded the same as the many I had tried. But, I did try some of the cookies that were supposed to be crispy because I thought I might like the texture. I had the oatmeal lace cookies and the cowboy cookies and both were great! The only thing I didn't like was that you had to use erythritol sweetener (not allulose which I prefer the taste of) or they wouldn't be crispy. I thought they had an extreme \"cool\" taste, which I didn't like. That's more the fault of the sweetener than the recipe.
I tried the vanilla ice cream which I didn't like at all. It had a whipped cream texture which I hate in ice cream. I also tried the caramel sauce to use in one of her online recipes. It tasted okay but it was for Carmelito's and it doesn't get chewy like normal caramel, so it was disappointing.
Then I tried some of the savory items. The rosemary olive oil bread had good flavor but a weird texture that I didn't like. It was better if I buttered a slice and put it under the broiler. I made the cloverleaf dinner rolls and they were okay. I much prefer Carolyn's garlic bread sticks in her soup cookbook. They are amazing! I made the bagels and they were just okay. I wouldn't make them again. I made the cream cheese biscuits and the cheddar drop biscuits, and they were both pretty good. But I think my very favorite thing, in addition to the banana bread, are the fresh herb and ricotta scones. I love those! I've made them a bunch and even for company. They are delicious!
That's about all I've tried so far. But I still have a ton to try and I'm really looking forward to it! I think the cookbook is definitely worth getting for the things I have liked because it's so hard to find good tasting keto items that are baked or sweet. That has nothing to do with the author, it's just the way it is. If I can find a few that I actually want to make more than once and wouldn't mind serving to non-keto company, then it's worth it!", "label": 1}

The additional features that this scale provides are mostly unimportant if you don't get that basic thing right.
Unfortunately, this scale will refuse to do this until you go through the steps necessary to connect it to their online service. This should all be clear from reading the product's description, but I feel it's important to reiterate this: if you're not plunging head-first into the whole fitbit ecosystem, willing to give them your personal information and sign up for their web services, this scale will be a brick.
What makes me the most uncomfortable is that It lacks a fallback mode to just "be a scale" if you haven't set it up yet. The lack of this fallback mode wouldn't be such a big deal though, if it wasn't such a huge pain to get set up:
If you're lucky enough to have a computer on your network that has WiFi, it *should* be a simple matter. But first of all, if you use an ethernet connection, you're out of luck. You *must* be able to use wifi, even if the scale and your machine connect to the same router.
This is because the setup guide relies on being able to switch to the scale's factory-default ad-hoc network, configure the scale, then switch back again. That means your entire OS, and any applications that are running and maybe using the internet, have to be disconnected and reconnected again to set up your scale.
Even that would be fine, if it *worked*. Unfortunately for me, on OSX 10.9 Mavericks on a circa-2013 iMac, it did not. I retried 5-6 times, watching as it tried to switch my wifi network to the Aria, switching to my neighbor's WiFi instead (maybe it thought their wireless router was the scale?) timing out, failing, and prompting me to retry. I tried various methods like manually selecting the Aria from my list of wireless networks, nothing really did it.
And this is especially bad when the panic starts to set in... when you realize you just spent upwards of $130 on a scale that *won't even tell you your weight* until you get their little wifi utility working.
Eventually I gave up and rebooted into my Windows partition on my same machine, and I had better luck there. But that experience really put a bad taste in my mouth.
Now that it's working, it's logging my weight and sending it wirelessly to fitbit's website. Cool, I guess. Don't know what use I'll really have for that.
I bought the scale to integrate with the "Lose It!" app I've been using tirelessly on my iPhone for years. I really wish the scale would just send my weight directly to my phone, but alas, it sends it to fitbit's servers instead, and Lose It syncs with their service indirectly. This means fitbit could pull the plug on this integration at any time, which makes me nervous.
Seeing as how this product is bad at both being a scale (which is really priority number one), and it only indirectly and flimsily supports the only other use case I have (integrating it with "Lose It!"), I'm very close to shipping this back to Fitbit and buying a bluetooth scale instead.", "label": 0}

I have only been taking it for a few days but knowing the benefits is enough for me. The package arrived quickly and there was no damage at all. The bottle was completely sealed and safe. In the even that you weren't aware, I took the time to list the benefits of taking Omega 3.
1.Omega-3 benefits your heart health. An Italian study (GISSI)7 of 11,324 heart attack survivors found that patients supplementing with fish oils markedly reduced their risk of another heart attack, stroke, or death. In a separate study, 8 American medical researchers reported that men who consumed fish once or more every week had a 50 percent lower risk of dying from a sudden cardiac event than do men who eat fish less than once a month.
2.Omega-3 normalizes and regulates your cholesterol triglyceride levels. Compared to a statin, both fish oil and krill oil are more efficient in doing this. According to a study comparing the efficiency of krill and fish oils in reducing triglyceride levels,9 both oils notably reduced the enzyme activity that causes the liver to metabolize fat, but krill had a more pronounced effects, reducing liver triglycerides significantly more.
Fasting triglyceride levels are a powerful indication of your ability to have healthy lipid profiles, which can be indicative of your heart health.
Studies have also shown that omega-3 fats are anti-arrhythmic (preventing or counteracting cardiac arrhythmia), anti-thrombotic (prevents thrombosis or a blood clot within a blood vessel), anti-atherosclerotic (preventing fatty deposits and fibrosis of the inner layer of your arteries), and anti-inflammatory (counteracting inflammation \u2013 the heat, pain, swelling, etc).
3.DHA affects your child's learning and behavior. Do you want to maximize your child's intellectual potential? A study published in Plos One in June 201310 linked low levels of DHA with poorer reading, and memory and behavioral problems in healthy school-age children. In another study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition in August 2013,11 children who consumed an omega-3 fat supplement as infants scored higher on rule learning, vocabulary, and intelligent testing at ages 3 to 5.
Previous research also found that children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and related behavior or learning disabilities are more likely to have low omega-3 fat levels.
Omega-3 has such great impact on your brain health \u2013 EPA and DHA keep the dopamine levels in your brain high, increase neuronal growth in the frontal cortex of your brain, and increase cerebral circulation.
\u201cOmega-3 has been found to save the lives of children going through short bowel syndrome (SBS)\u201d4.Omega-3 has been found to save the lives of children going through short bowel syndrome (SBS), which is uncommon but impacts thousands of people in the United States. SBS can occur from birth (when a portion of the intestine fails to develop) or due to an infectious inflammatory disease striking premature newborns. In adults, it can be caused by surgery for Crohn's disease or injury.
Alarmed by the situation, Dr. Mark Puder, surgeon at Children's Hospital Boston,12 said that they knew most of the children with SBS were going to die. Then the physicians noted that when the kids were given the nutritional supplement Omegaven (made of fish oil), they began to improve drastically.
The fish oil treatment was given to 112 children at the hospital, where more than 90 percent of the children with SBS are still alive. There has been striking results that the fish oil supplement is also made available at 70 hospitals worldwide.

I always try to leave a pleasant scent via cleaning, but wanted something a bit more sophisticated. I saw a NYTimes article on scent marketing and started searching on Amazon for choices in an entry-level machine. My Airbnb suite is just 300 square feet, but has its own HVAC system. I purchased a tea/citrus scent from Aromatech after trying out their various samples (available for order on Amazon).
I've had the Kevinleo machine (sturdy and beautiful quality) set up and operating for about a month, and started with the lowest amount of scent spraying into the HVAC air return (which I installed by poking a hole in the HVAC return and setting up the machine in a bookcase in my my office, which is adjacent to the HVAC crawl space and Airbnb. Learning the buttons on the keypad is not a big deal to figure out. If you can the time on an alarm clock, you can set this scent machine operating times/hours/days. Lowest scent is 5 seconds on and 300 seconds off, which means it sprays scent for 5 seconds every 5 minutes. I set it to spray only during daytime hours when guests would be awake, figuring no one wants to be subjected to a scent while they're sleeping. This setting has been PERFECT and is just right, so every once in a while, you get a pleasant whiff of the tea/citrus scent. It isn't enough to really take notice that the place has a scent machine -- it's just a pleasant overall essence that's occasionally noticeable. As it should be, I think. Too much of a good thing is just that. I liked this machine so much that I bought another one for the bedroom level of my own house. After trying it out and setting it to scent for 24 hours a day, I can tell you that you DO NOT want to be smelling scent when you're sleeping. Also, for the Airbnb I bought the somewhat expensive Aromatech scent ($149 for 500ml or 16 oz= $9.31/oz). I'm trying out the White Tea reed diffuser scented oil in the rest of the house, which is $13.99 for 8 oz = $1.75oz. The less expensive oil works just as well and smells the same for less than a fifth of the cost of the other. Back to the Airbnb scent machine == it's been operating from 7 am to 10 pm since June 15, and scenting for 10 seconds on/300 seconds off, and when i check the oil bottle in the machine, it still looks nearly full. It appears I'll be able to go many months without having to refill. On a note to those who say \"the machine doesn't work after a while,\" I HAVE occasionally set the scent output to a higher number of seconds -- like 20 on, 300 off -- just to make sure the machine occasionally is working long enough to ensure the tube from machine to hvac has some air pushed through it and avoids possible accumulation. Just a thought. I'm liking this all so much, I just bought a THIRD machine for the living room level of my home, and will stick to the less expensive white tea reed diffuser scent oil refill tea (the Westin Hotel-ish smell) as my scent. I hope this helps someone make their own decisions. Eric in LA", "label": 1}

This has saved me thru the winter from getting that heavy cold, & in the summer from getting
sick from the Air Conditioner. Im really sensitive to a cold, oh my gosh when this cold hits me it
takes me weeks to get out of it. I tried everything under the sun from Natural products to over
the counter antihistamines .
I do believe in natural products and I do think vitamin C Helps a little and raw honey is a good
thing to have around. But this product has helped me immensely. I can say I saved hours of
sitting at the Doctors office. (As a matter of fact last time I visited my doctor he asked me are
you ok? I didn't see you for such a long time) and im so happy to see that this is available at
Amazon because l always buy this product locally but the last time I was looking for it at my local
Health food store and he was out of it. I started searching I was delighted to find it on Amazon.
I love helping others and at the same time. When I finally find a good product that really works
I feel that I need to share this knowledge with others who are struggling with the same issue.
Im not looking to be critical of other products but I can tell you I have tried many products that
didn't help me at all. Im so glad that I finally found a product that really works & works fast. I will
also share some other ideas that have really helped me since I am aware that Im not the only
one that gets paralyzed from a bad cold.
As soon as you start feeling that tickling in your throat or minor pain do not wait start taking this
cold remedy immediately. I've had outstanding results when I took it more frequently in small
doses . I took a half a dropper every 3 Hours During the day. Like 5 times a day sometimes I was
going on for a day or 2 till I felt better but many times after 6-7 hours I forgot that I was feeling
bad.
Once you missed it & the cold is really heavy it is much harder to get rid of. But one thing for
sure if you take these drops you will not feel that heavy congestion that you normally feel with
a cold. You'll be able to function a lot better amid the cold.
When you have a cold make sure to drink lots of water. Also if you can tolerate mix 4oz
lukewarm to warm water with a pinch of salt, mix well & put into a dropper & drip it into nostrils
3-4 times a day.
Of course not to mention you always you have to be careful and make sure that it's not a
bacterial infection if symptoms are severe and lasts longer than usual see your Doctor.
Because no natural product can replace antibiotic you cannot play around when you need to get
antibiotics for an infection. But when you catch it early enough you won't need to run to the
doctor because if treated at the onset you'll avoid it from becoming an infection. Mainly what
I realize this product does it takes away a sore throat in hours. I've gone to sleep with a sore
throat and I woke up in the morning feeling great. I almost forgot that I was not feeling well last
night.
I recommend you to try this product. I have full faith in it. It has really helped me, it has helped
my kids. I keep one bottle at home and one bottle at work. Also it lasts longer than I thought.", "label": 1}

I keep thinking it can't be making a huge difference, but then I'm reminded just how essential it is for me. I tried a different brand about a month ago and this last week I must have gotten a bad batch because the taste was a little off. Both times, I immediately felt the difference. I started breaking out, I was getting irritable, having intense cravings, feeling exhausted, and gaining weight. As soon as I ordered a new bottle and started taking it again, within a few hours, I was back to feeling better. I've always had hormones from hell! This last year, I had a total hysterectomy, which was a huge blessing! The dr put me on an estrogen patch, which made a significant difference... sometimes, but I would always get major swings between the days I had to change my patch, and I had to keep upping my dose, which was dangerous with my clotting problems. So, I started searching for other options. I've known about maca for a while, but it never really stood out to me. I came across a study that talked about how it actually works on the pituitary gland, which is basically the part of your brain that controls all your hormones. This caught my interest, because I felt like I just kept swinging myself up and down trying to figure out how much estrogen I needed, since I'm super sensitive. The maca works by balancing everything out and prevents the guessing game. When I first started taking it back in February, I had to take it about every 4 hours, otherwise, I would feel the symptoms creeping back. It usually takes a couple of weeks to build up in your system and notice the difference, but after a while, you don't have to take as much. Now, I only take it 2 to 3 times a day, depending on how I feel. My mom also had a hysterectomy and didn't want to get off of her patches, but she finally did and is doing great on the maca too. It gets rid of her hot flashes. She doesn't seem to notice a difference in brands, but for me, it made a huge difference. There are also different types of maca. The red maca is the best for hormones but isn't just for female hormones since it works on the pituitary gland. The black is better for energy, but the red seems to give me a good amount of energy too. This stuff has made it possible for me to lose almost 50 pounds now. My hormones have been a major trigger for my autoimmune reaction. I would gain 5 pounds in a single day and would get so swollen, painful, exhausted, and depressed that it was a struggle just to get out of bed. On top of that, they would trigger severe sugar cravings. It felt like I was thirsty all the time, but the only thing that quenched the thirst were carbs. Hormones affect your neurotransmitters, and your neurotransmitters are made up of building blocks that you get from foods. Sugar increases both your serotonin and dopamine, which make you feel better. My poor family always knew that when I was hormonal, I NEEDED sugar or I would literally lose my mind. Since being on the maca, I rarely get any sugar cravings. Unfortunately, for me, losing weight hasn't been as simple as fixing my hormones and staying away from sugar due to the many foods that trigger my immune system. However, I keep being reminded that the maca has been essential in my journey to better health, and I literally can't function well without it. So, I wanted to share in case my experience could possibly help someone else too.", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3692, "id": 441870, "interval": [700, 800], "len_words": 668, "len_tokens": 799, "text": "UPDATE (after going through a 5lb bag): I decided to upgrade my review to 5 stars despite mixing issues, which only exist because there are no additives (mainly no lecithin of any kind, for which I'm grateful), because the protein tastes so neutral both on its own and in smoothies. It also has the best individual protein profile I've seen and has a nice thin consistency when mixed, which is probably what gives it a more neutral taste over other proteins. Lastly, the protein sits really well with me (other proteins will give me acid reflux/make me feel bloated). As long as you don't drink it while it's foamy (see mixing tips below), you shouldn't feel bloated. This is probably the least bloating protein I've tried since it's thin when mixed and the only ingredient is whey.
Mixing Tips: a large blender that allows you to drop the protein in from the top while you have the water moving is the best, but any will do.
I've found that pressing the stir/mix button on the blender gently while dumping an entire scoop of the protein into half a cup of water while the water is just moving is good enough to mix it (it takes a few seconds). There is still quite a bit of foam, but enough of it will settle in a few minutes to make it drinkable. I separate any remaining foam and put it in the fridge to settle so I can drink it later (it doesn't amount to much but probably still a few grams of protein). Alternatively, I'll mix the protein a few hours before I want it and let it sit in the fridge until the foam settles. SMOOTHIE TIP: to make a smoothie, I mix the protein, let it settle as I just mentioned, and set it aside. Then, I blend all the smoothie ingredients in the blender, pour the smoothie mix into the shaker with the protein, and stir with a spoon to combine. Stirring the rest of the smoothie into the mixed protein ensures that no foam is created. You end up with a smooth shake. I find that thick fruits, like a full banana, in the smoothie work the best to neutralize any remaining whey flavor over thinner fruits like watermelon.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Previous Review (after a few days of trying the protein):
The reason why I gave this protein four stars instead of five is because it should really come with a warning that it requires a blender to mix. If you try to stir it, it will clump and stick to the side of your glass. If you try to shake it, it will foam like crazy but still be clumpy. Both of these methods of mixing make the protein undrinkable. You have to mix it in a blender ever so slowly to get it to mix well enough to drink. However, despite mixing it intermittently on the slowest speed, you will still end up with 50% foam. I use this blender method and reduce the foam by putting the mixture through a fine mesh strainer. I discard the strained foam.
I mix the protein with water. To make a fruit/vegetable shake, I would use the method I described above with water or milk, strain out the foam, then mix it in by hand to the rest of the shake (if you use a blender to mix the protein with the rest of your shake ingredients, it will foam too much to be drinkable. Although if you have a very small blending container, it may work as there wouldn't be as much air circulating within it to make it foam).
Other than the issue of mixing, the protein has a great neutral taste and the best amino acid profile I've seen. It's also nice that it's from grass fed cows and is not a byproduct of the cheese making process as most other proteins are. For these reasons, I think I can deal with the mixing issue.", "label": 1}

The shipping company would not step foot on my property and would not come through the gate to the backyard. I'm in Chicago so they left it in the alley and I dragged it through the gate by myself. The company called me a day before and told me approximately when it would arrive so that I could be home to sign for it.
Getting it inside and assembly:
This thing is heavy and big. You definitely need two strong people to carry it. It comes two pieces: the main unit and the foot massager. It was a challenge to fit it through some of the door frames. I had to take two of the doors off so make sure it will fit through yours. Assembly was pretty easy, just follow the instructions and connect a few hoses together for the airbags.
The massages pros:
The massage is really nice. I think it's a little on the harder side so it may not be the best for people who are sensitive, but I love a good hard massage. The airbags feel really nice, especially on your calves. I really like some of the pre-programed massages. The zero gravity really take a load off your back. I used to get massages about once a month and I've stopped going completely since buying this chair. The chair looks nice and the faux leather is really nice too.
Cons: The machine definitely has some quirks to it. For instance, if the timer runs out or if you want to switch from one pre-programed massage to another and you are in zero gravity, the chair will go fully upright and then you can put it back into zero gravity again. The user interface is moderately featured, but is lacking in some areas. I wish there was more customization. For instance, there are a number of manual options, but no way to program a custom massage. There is not a way to designate which airbags to use, it's either all or none. The airbags on your feet can be a little too strong. I don't know if this is just my machine, but the body scanning has not worked at all since day one. It's stuck on the tallest height setting and I cannot change the settings to fit someone smaller. But I'm 5' 10\" and it's perfect for me. I haven't reached out to any kind of support to try to resolve this issue. Other than that, I've had no mechanical issues with it. Lastly, there are bluetooth speakers on the outside of the chair, but they are absolute garbage. But who buys a massage chair for its speakers?
Overall rating 7.5/10. It was well worth the $800 I spent on it. I see that it's going for about $1300 now, I'm not sure it's worth it at that price, but it's a solid machine.
A word of advice for any massage chair shopper, BUY THE WARRANTY! I haven't had to use it yet, but many massage chairs, even from well known name brands breakdown and you don't want to spend all this money just for it to die in a few years.", "label": 0}

Disclosure: I was offered this product at a reduced price in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. When I do a review I always get one or more people to put their opinion in on it, because people have different likes and dislikes and I feel the more perspectives I get on something the better I can review it.
So, my first impression of the FOMI Lumbar Support: Over all I would have to say it was fair. Sadly some of it's value was lost in my use of it has my chair has Lumbar support (and by my chair I mean my husbands that I steal all the time). So when you pile Lumber on Lumbar it gets a little un-comfy. Now if I laid back in his chair it kinda suspended my back similar to how a hammock would and that felt pretty nice and the massage beads were a very nice touch and were not too intrusive to the back. But all-in-all, not for me.
My moms assessment of the FOMI Lumbar Support: She put it in her van and drove around town with it for awhile then gave me her opinion of it. Overall she seemed happy with it but wasn't overly impressed by it. Though it's not necessarily uncomfortable, it could definitely take some getting used to.
I ALWAYS try to find at least one thing that could be improved upon or slight imperfection in every product I review because NO product is completely prefect for everyone.
So the main issues with this product is: 1) It could prove slightly awkward at first and may not use it long enough to get start feeling the long term effect it would have on their back. 2) It presents its self as having adjustable elastic straps, I feel this is slightly misleading. The straps themselves can not be adjusted. Now there are two straps going diagonally and one horizontally. This gives it a sense of flexibility to fit a variety of chairs, but I would not classify it as adjustable.", "label": 1}

This is such a wonderful cleanser, definitely my new staple beauty cleanser. \ud83d\ude03\ud83d\ude0b\ud83d\ude0d I recently got in the whole Korean skincare cosmetics over the summer!! Sadly, I've only tried 2 Korean cleansers in my lifetime and they gave me pretty bad results. They were It's Skin eggshell (which dried me out terribly and gave me the most worst breakout on my forehead) and Skin Food Egg White Cleansing Foam (which was a sample I received that also dried my skin out horribly and left me with a more mild breakout on my forehead). So, I was a bit worried this would dry me out as well!!! \ud83d\ude13\ud83d\ude13\ud83d\ude13
I have thankfully never experienced any kind of acne, and really rarely only get mild breakouts with products, usually on my forehead, but this may be because I keep a healthy diet and I'm quite young too! But prevention is the key! \ud83d\ude18\ud83d\ude18\ud83d\ude03\ud83d\ude03
Sorry for the rambling, now on to the product! \ud83d\ude0c\ud83d\ude0c\ud83d\ude05\ud83d\ude05 Wonder Pore Whipping Foaming has such a cute, refreshing packaging. It comes in a shaving cream-like bottle with an adorable baby blue hue. I'm usually a more pinkish and girly type girl but Wonder Pore is just so delicately cute and feels new and refreshing! The consistency is also like shaving cream, it reminds me of marshmallow fluff! \ud83d\ude04 It's extremely gentle, and it was my first time using a foam cleanser so it was definitely a new and pleasant experience! There's definitely a smell, but extreme'y subtle. Usually when I use this cleanser under my nose and upper lip I can detect a mint, maybe peppermint-like feeling? It's super refreshing and cooling and really subtle! I also have rather sensitive skin, but this doesn't irritate it at all! Soo lovely!! \ud83d\ude04\ud83d\ude04 At first, I thought this was product was "too" gentle, so I scrubbed more vigorously. Don't be fooled! This scrub is actually a bit tough! After scrubbing vigorously for maybe 2 or 3 days even using toner and moisturizer I've noticed that my nose developed some teeny tiny dry flakes! They were tiny though, definitely not horrible! But other than that, everything has been peachy with this cleanser! It's fluffy and sweet, leaving my skin very soft and clean, but not super tight, squeaky clean. It looks adorable on my sink and has definitely cleared and has really reduced the size of my pores! I've been using this for a few weeks now and it's really improved my skin! Also, the shipping was extraordinarily fast! I ordered this on October 30th and it arrived November 1rst on a Sunday too!! I ordered around maybe 16-18 products? and this along with Hey!Pinkyo Girl lace sheet masks and they were the first things to arrive! This is by far my most adored cleanser, and I'm finally seeing the hype! \u2764\ufe0e I also really love Wonder Pore because of that cute video with Sulli and Key reviewing Wonder pore products! \ud83d\ude0d\ud83d\ude0d\ud83d\ude0d Will definitely repurchase!!
TL;DR
Pros:
Very gentle, yet effective
Extremely subtle mint-like(?) smell
Refreshing mint lingering
Cute container
Leaves pores smaller
Keeps face soft and firm
Can be used as a mask
Cleans your skin without stripping
Cons:
Can dry out skin a bit if you use vigorously
Overall; Holy grail and definitely not a beauty fail!! \ud83d\ude0d\ud83d\ude0d\ud83d\ude0d\ud83d\ude0d\ud83d\ude0d\ud83d\ude0d", "label": 1}

I appreciate this kind of customer service, told them they did not have to, but if they wanted, the size was not working for me/us. They sent my a 2/3rd version - the kind I do use. It has arrived, looks very similar to the one in the pics for the 3/4 version, and I tried it in several shoes. I already had my regal shoes set, so tried my dress shoes and 2 pairs of casual. I did eventually find 2 pairs these work with - frustratingly, many of the shoes to not allow me to take out the inserts, so adding anything makes the too tight. But these did work in the two pairs and were fine. So, I appreciate the customer service and that these 2/3rds inserts do work for me. They are fairly \u201chard\u201d in that you will feel the support. For my needs it\u2019s fine - I have to have a good level. They fit and did not stretch the shoes like the longer ones did, that too is very helpful. Overall I think these are going to work better for me - I\u2019ve not tried my wife\u2019s shoes yet - so I\u2019m glad they reached out. For their customer service and because I can use them and they give good support, I have increased the original 3 stars to 5. The original review is below.
This Plantar Fasciitis Pain Relief Orthotics - Arch Support 3/4 Insoles is not going to work out for us. I got them for myself, but when they did not work for me, my wife tried them, and they do not work for her either.
I also realized: I have 3 sets of 2/3 inserts that I\u2019ve come to really like. I messed up when getting these - I misread the 3/4 instead of 2/3. Therefore, these are longer. Figured I\u2019d give them a try and it would be not much different. It is. The longer set up of the arch support does not work in our shoes.
PROS:
I like the weight - it is lightweight and does not add to the weight of the shoe
I like the bottom - it is actually rather comfortable
I like the cushion feel
I like the support - overall it seemed like it would be a good level of support
Having a need for arch support I find that what I need varies from shoe to shoe (pairs). I also use them in a range of shoe types: gym, dress, hiking, etc. So figuring out the type and style of insert isn\u2019t always easy. I use an expensive full insert on my regular shoes - need the consist support. The other side is, I don\u2019t want to pay that much for inserts for certain shoes I only wear from time to time. So, why not move a set of inserts from shoe to shoe? With 2/3 pairs is it possible and I\u2019ve been successful.
Now that I realize the 3/4 ARE different enough as to alter things - I will not get another pair of 3/4. They do not work for my shoes.
If I could get these in a 2/3 length I would really like them - I\u2019m pretty sure at least.
CONS:
At this length they are too wide at the toe end - they actually push out on the sides of the shoes.
I do not like where they end under the foot - it feels annoying
In the end I am not comfortable on and do not like this 3/4 size. It does not feel comfortable under the foot. And the size at the top end closest to the toes is far too wide. I think what\u2019s weird - compared to other shoes and inserts I have - you can see these are wider. I have \u201cnormal\u201d rather than \u201cwide\u201d feet. I tried them in both gym shoes - pushed out visibly on the sides of the material. And on dress shoes - which for men are often shaped into a point - and there too you could these push out. I yanked them out quickly so as not to stretch the leather. These just to not work for me. It\u2019s sad - I did like the feel of my foot in them - under the arch with it\u2019s support - but that was all.", "label": 1}

(Finish Kare 1000P Hi-Temp Paste Wax [[ASIN:B002NZL6M6 15oz Finish Kare 1000P Hi Temp]] They sell 1000p for boats but it works wonderfully on cars as well. This is a dynamite product because it is both easy to apply and buff off plus because it's for boats which see a much more difficult environment than most cars, one can expect a much longer period of protection than typical car waxes give. If you're looking for one wax to protect your ride, you really can't go wrong with the 1000P. It also produces a beautiful shine though some might claim that it doesn't have the depth and wet look that many carnauba waxes give.
To see if I could get the depth of shine and wet look, I was eager to purchase some of Finish Kare's 2685 Pink Paste Wax. It's made from #1 Brazilian carnauba plus some reinforcing resins to give the wax more durability, especially it's resistance to burn-off from heat. In what has to be one of the sweetest deals I've seen in a long time, you can get three cans of the 2685 for the price of one. If you apply this wax properly, you'll be fixed practically for life.
I applied one coat to my Ranger this afternoon and it couldn't have been easier. I did the entire truck including wheels and tonneau cover in about an hour. I applied this wax during a very humid day (like we have anything else in GA at this time of year) and it went on smoothly and it hazed in about 5 minutes. On other waxes, I've had a hard time getting them off if they sat too long but the 2685 buffed right off with a cotton towel. Normally, I have to use microfiber to remove sealants and waxes and on many days, static becomes a problem but not so with cotton. It's just my opinion but with a cotton towel, you don't remove any of the newly applied product. Another possible advantage is that this wax (like 1000p) doesn't stain exterior vinyl. In my experience all I had to do was use a soft bristle brush to remove the dry residue. NOTE: I keep my vinyl in pretty good condition and you may have a different experience if your vinyl has weathered so test and test again.
Note that neither 1000p nor 2685 have any cleaning properties. If your paint has corrosion, stains or other problems, you'll need a cleaner wax or a polish to fix the paint. Finish Kare make some products that will help you here: Finish Kare 215 One Step Cleaner & Surface Sealant ([[ASIN:B002NQXLP0 Finish Kare Cleaner Surface Sealant]] but once your paint is good you can add a couple of coats of 1000P to keep the paint protected.
Since neither 1000p nor 2685 have any cleaners in them, they can be layered. I had three coats of 1000p on my ride before I added the 2685 today. Tomorrow, I'll add another coat.
Finish Kare, like to many other companies is very spare with information about how to use their products in the most effective way and the stores that sell Finish Kare products just mouth the basic superficial marketing hype without going into the nitty gritty. So after perusing the forum where these product have been discussed, figure about 24 hours for each layer to cure before another layer can be applied. If you don't leave enough time between coats, you risk taking off the first coat with the second one. The current thinking is that it takes about 3 days for 1000p to cure completely and I'd guess a similar time for 2685.
I would have given this product 5 stars except durability is a critical feature of a wax and I haven't had time to test the durability of either 1000p or 2685 yet. I'll update when I know more.", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3698, "id": 11278, "interval": [800, 900], "len_words": 702, "len_tokens": 879, "text": "My wife bought me this for my contact lenses and I was curious and a bit worried based on the reviews I've read. I waited to write a review until I used it in several scenarios. The package I received had 2 large bottles and 1 "TSA friendly" 3oz bottle plus 2 of the lens holders. I wear Air Optic Multifocals, a "open a new pack once a month" disposable.
From the picture you will notice that the lid is red and there is a red/orange warning label around it. This is to make sure it stands out to you because you cannot use this like you use normal lens solution. This is a special formula and special holding container that you put your lenses in overnight and it cleans them with a "bubbling" action, which really does bubble away. The hitch is that you have to have the lenses in for a recommended period of time so the solution neutralizes. You cannot do a quick soak or put them in for a couple of hours...once they are in you are committed.
So first things first, this stuff is absolutely fantastic at doing exactly what it advertises. If you leave it in overnight (they say 6 and a half hours, but it really needs more like 8), your lenses feel as fresh at the end of the month as they do at the start. This was really key to me because for the first 2 1/2 years of wearing lenses, the end of the month for new lenses was something I really looked forward to because my lenses bothered my eyes more and more over the course of the month. This fixed that - they feel as good on day 30 as day 1. I won't live without this product again.
However, you need to know that it does not replace regular lens solution. You need regular solution for the quick soak, the popping out a lens to clean it, etc. This is a better cleaner, not a new solution. Though my eye doctor's office didn't really do a good job of covering this in the "consult" I paid for, my personal take is you need a product like Clear Care for routine cleaning, you need regular lens solution for short soaks and those times where you take lenses in and out, and you need a good rewetting solution for those days where lenses are being annoying. This is part of a total solution.
If you don't pay attention to which bottle you grab, or you ignore the warnings, you will pay a hefty price. I accidentally grabbed this when cleaning a lens real quick one day instead of my regular solution, which was totally my fault - I was inattentive. The bottle is covered in more warnings than you can ever imagine and those warnings don't understate the consequences...but I rinsed my lens and popped it back in my eye. The pain was easily in the top 10 pain moments of my life, and the irritation and soreness lasted for a couple of days. They are dead serious, you have to let them soak.
The other thing to know is I don't recommend for travel unless you can give long soak times. I travel on business a lot, and frequently end up taking people out to dinner/entertaining, followed by getting up early. Despite the bottle recommendations on soak time, I've let it run an hour past and still experienced anywhere from mild to heavy burning. The heavy burning was after 7.5 hours of soak on my most recent business trip, and it was about 50% of the pain felt in the "rinsed and put back in" incident. There seems to be some variables in the soak time, and at home I tend to soak at least 8 hours without problems. For future business trips, I'll just take the regular holders and regular solution.
In summary, I consider this stuff a must-have, but it has a specific purpose and role. It is not a jack of all trades, it has a job. That job extends the life of your lenses and completely improves their comfort, but understand the limitations and whatever you do, do NOT underestimate the warnings.", "label": 1}

Finding cheaper options is always there, but you are worried about the accuracy. So when given the chance to try these I of course took it. Upon arrival I was very pleased with them. I loved that the packaging was simple yet effective. I of course took them out right away to "test" them. For starters I love that it came with a box for storage when not in use. Each test is labeled very simple, yet noticeable. They are marked very differently from each other and should cause no concern about a mix up. Each test is wrapped individually, which you want. The test strips are pretty thin, which you can expect with any dip stick style test. This particular set comes with 50 LH strips(ovulation) and 20 HCG strips (pregnancy). For anyone who may have not used these, I will explain a little. You simply collect a small amount of urine in a cup and dip these into it. The strips are have a "max" line mark to which you do not dip past. Very easy, and even easier is that there's an illustration showing this on each test strip package should you forget.
Getting into a little more details of each, I'll start with the LH(ovulation) strips. These show you when your LH surges, which is usually 12-48 hours before ovulation. Average is 36 hours. Giving you a better idea of when to bd(baby dance). On a normal cycle you ovulate 14 days after the first day of your last cycle, however most people are not average. That's where these tests come in handy. Depending on the length of your cycle will determine when you should begin testing with LH strips. Sadly this set doesn't come with a testing chart, so I will post them for help.
Cycle 21 days.......start testing on cycle day 5
Cycle 22 days.......start testing on cycle day 6
Cycle 23 days......start testing on cycle day 7
So on and so forth. If your cycles 30 days you test on day 14. If your cycle is irregular, start testing based on the shorted cycle you had. These are not like pregnancy test and should not be taken first thing in the morning. Most recommending testing between the hours of 10am-8pm. Although most get the best results after 12pm. For these to read positive the line must be as dark or darker than the control line. Most women will always see a line, so please be sure you check the darkness to insure a correct positive. After getting a positive you can quit testing as you know your LH has surged and ovulation is pending.
Now onto the HCG(pregnancy) ones. These are much more simple to use and really have no line watching of time frames. These particular test ring in at 25miu, which is the lower normal for most store bought test. They are actually a bit more sensitive than some more expensive tests. These should be used with first morning urine as it tends to be more concentrated, however feel free to test anytime should you want. As most know a line is a line regardless of the darkness. If you get a line on these you know there's a baby on the way.
I have tried both tests and have had excellent results. I am always worried about evaps and these have yet to have one. Even after sitting and drying for some time the strip remained completely white. While both of these are recommended to not read past 10 minutes, I have noticed that the LH strips do take a bit to finish running. I usually read it at 10 minutes exactly for the true reading. I have tried many different brands tests and these definitely rank in the top. The best part is the price is so low for such a generous amount. If taken correctly these could last a few months. Unless of course your like myself and take way too many. I love these tests and I'm so glad I was able to try them out. I will be recommending them to my friends and family. I will also be reordering these should I need more in the future although I'm hoping to get my positive HCG with these soon.

A few extremely Simply measurements will save a Ton of ill reviews.

Being in the Electrical Service field for many years, I had thee exact size hole saw required AND recommended by the manufacture --- Buuutttt -- I choose to error on the side of caution and use a 1/4inch larger diameter hole saw ---- juuusssttttt incase my \"math\" was off a little ( I had some adhesive backed foam tape I was prepared to use IF the holes were too far off or out of round ).
I gingerly drilled a pilot hole with a #35 drill bit for the Center of Each Lamp in the Duct and taped the manufactures templet to the duct utilizing the measurements previously mentioned ----- I was astonished and to my amazements the Tape Measure I used earlier to measure the locations of the center of the holes were Spot on to the Template!!!! Henceforth, and with wild abandon, I installed a Hole saw in my Cordless drill and drilled through the ductwork above the A-Coil --- being extremely careful NOT to let the hole saw cut all the way through the thin sheetmetal, --- I didn't want to play \"go fish\" for the cutout in the bottom of the duct ----- I cut through about 2/3rds - 3/4s of the duct and used a pair of pliers to bend the cutout back and forth until it separated from the duct and removed the \"burrr\" with a piece of emery cloth.
The mounting screws used to fasten the unit to the duct didn't fit holes in the unit ----- soooo, again using the tape measure and a sharpie, I carefully but strategically measured and marked the mounting hole location on the duct, and used a #35 drill bit to predrill the holes for the mounting screws----- again spot on --- once the mounting screw holes were drilled I placed the unit on the duct and made sure ALL the mounting Holes lined up ---- if they didn't line up, I feared it would be a \"Do Over\" either above or below or left or right of my original measurements.... no big deal, after reading many ill reviews of the mounting template being off -- I was prepared for the worse --- adjusting my location ----whew--- luckily all was good, due to my superior tape measuring capabilities.
I used latex gloves and installed the lamps into the lamp holder being extremely careful to avoid touching either lamp. Everything lined up and after using extreme care utilizing the manufacture supplied screws, I mounted the Unit to the Duct and plugged the unit in.
Oh Man !! All Good !!
Unit powered up, and has been working non-stop since install. Eventually I will install a current switch or air-flow switch to regulate the lamps power up when the blower energizes during heat cycles or cooling cycles.
I gave this 4 Stars because I don't know the longevity of the lamp life based on how often it will cycle on...we will see
I really hope this is a helpful review for all those DIY'rs.", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3702, "id": 43801, "interval": [800, 900], "len_words": 668, "len_tokens": 839, "text": "I'd been using the Fitbit One with great success for 6 months, dropping over 25 pounds...and one day, our Health-o-Meter digital scale just stopped working. Since I was already using a Fitbit One and am familiar with the Fitbit online dashboard, the Aria has been a no-brainer replacement for my old scale.
The Hardware
In some ways, the glass top makes the Aria seem fragile, as does its slim height. However, this thing is heavy, and feels fairly solid on the inside. The Aria is also pretty bulky, larger than any other scale I've owned.
The Software
Setting up the Fitbit Aria is incredibly simple. The instructions are in the box, and in my case the wireless setup went exactly as the instructions indicated, without a hitch. Not all Amazon reviewers have been this lucky, so be aware that depending on your network you may encounter some issues.
Once connected, the Fitbit Aria will sync your weight and body fat to 'the cloud': a Fitbit dashboard utility that is free. You can read this information in a browser and also install supporting software on your PC, Mac, or mobile phone. You can do all sorts of things with the information, such as start logging your food and exercise and make the Aria part of your weight control plan, but in my case it just gets lumped in with the Fitbit One data I was already using. Other people in the house can use the scale as much as they like without having an account, or you can have the Fitbit send them a setup e-mail that will start tracking their weight: up to 8 different people can have this feature.
The Readings
So let's talk for a moment about the accuracy. Since my old scale was broken, it's hard to be 100% sure they would match up, but it seems to be reading about the same weight as my old digital scale. I've seen no reason to doubt the weight readings.
The body fat though is a different story. I've learned how to use a pair of calipers to do the 'pinch test' of body fat percentage, a process that requires some time and a partner: pinch several places, jot down the numbers, run them through an online calculator. The Aria skips all this hassle and uses electrostatic technology to 'read' your body fat in a few seconds. I've noticed it can be about a percentage off from my pinch measurements, and it is affected by other factors. If I've had a lot of water to drink but it's because I just did a ton of cardio and sweated a lot off, I might see the body fat reading go up...which can't be right if I haven't eaten since the last measurement and I've just been drinking water. If I'm wet from the shower, that also tends to change the reading. My conclusion is it's best to step on the Fitbit dry and naked at the beginning of the day. If you want to take readings more often, expect the numbers of both body fat and weight to move around. Long term, you'll see if you're on an upward or downward trend, and I've even had days where I lose a pound but gain a percent.
For You
It's important to remember that your goals are long-term and not worry about every day. Step on the scale at the same time every day, but think about the numbers in weeks or even months. The Body Fat is a nice measurement to keep you thinking about how much fat you take in and how much you burn, but don't rely on the Aria to be super-precise: be happy with the fact that it's still pretty good.
Conclusion:
The Fitbit Aria is a bit pricey for digital scales, but if you're looking for a way to lump in a lot of information, the online aspect is a big extra that the Fitbit brings to the table. If you're already used to Fitbit devices, you'll find this integrates into the dashboard really well.", "label": 1}

Sore lower back, sore behind, I even sit on a leather recliner, still didn't help
A year ago bought an oval donut to try, put an ice pact inside the middle, relieved the pain, was ok
Except the ice packs did damage to my skin on my seating area, red, itchy, miserable.
Quit using ice packs, but oval donut by itself was too uncomfortable, causing me to look at other solutions
I come across the purple seat, I decided on the large size, fits perfectly on my leather recliner
First 3 days, my behind was already so sore, back as well. It came in 2 days, ty amazon
I didn't enjoy sitting on this seat because of the honeycombed style, never sat on anything like this, but after sitting the first day, I noticed little pain in my back area, and lessened pain in my bottom area, so decoded to give it a week to see
Plan was if I didn't like it I'd send it back, and try another seat, or use it along with another seat to alternate days using different products to find one that works and I enjoy sitting on it
After 3 days it seemed to loosen up, or I got used to it, or both, but my butt improved everyday, and my back pain lessened a lot. It does not get hot like a regular seat. But not cool either, I missed having some coolness so I did this.
I put a towel on my chair, a large flat ice pack on the towel, and the purple seat on top off all of it.
In about 10 minutes I feel some coolness, not enough to damage area like my other seating system, but feels so much better for me.
I cant say if it's for everybody, but works fantastic to me, and seems well made, so I expect it to last, the ice packs I used are made with heavy material, blue strong covers, cost 11 bucks at a famous retailer. And I'm now set, and much happier,
As with any new material you sit on, I'd say give it 3 days, my behind was so sore I thought I could never be happy sitting on gel honeycombs, but everyday I improved and got used to sitting on this, I still don't love sitting on honeycombs but it the best relieve for my soreness I've ever had.
Now I can't imagine life without it, saved me from buying a new chair, wife and I are saving money for updating our home, or I'd try a few more seating with cooling gel and memory foam, just to see if there's a better option out there, and one day I will, but till then the royal purple helps greatly and is my saving grace, hope this helps.
Remember other reviewers claim to send it back you pay shipping and restocking fee, so there's a price to pay to try it, so if you do at least give it 3 to 5 days because if I sent it back after the first day, idk where I'd be right now, I was so miserable.
Glad I gave it a chance, love it, but it's not perfect, ty and gl
Update, had this nearly a month now, used to it, have no problems sitting on a gel honeycomb now, still put an ice pack underneath the cushion, I will not be looking any further for a solution, I found it.
Be careful of one thing is I have found I reclind my recliner all the way back to take a nap woke up an hour and a half later and my butt was sore as heck so sit upright using this on a full recline when I'm taking a nap I have to remove the cushion.
You can lay back some now but my leather recliner goes back a long way and I think it spread my butt cheeks and made everything hurt so I can recline about halfway and I'm OK with the cushion, full recline I remove the cushion and I put it back when I sit upright again, I hope I explained well thank you and good luck", "label": 1}

It's an amino acid that helps build the brain's feel-good chemical, serotonin. I've used it for about 2 years after reading [[ASIN:0142003646 The Mood Cure: The 4-Step Program to Take Charge of Your Emotions--Today]] for its nutritional advice, upon the recommendation of this book: [[ASIN:0553380788 Protein Power: The High-Protein/Low-Carbohydrate Way to Lose Weight, Feel Fit, and Boost Your Health--in Just Weeks!]].
I was shocked by the difference it made for me in the quality and quantity of my sleep. I'd spent the last year or two waking up, wide awake, at 3:30 in the morning & was unable to go back to sleep. I take 1500 mg of Tryptophan (3 500 mg capsules) and 400 mg of chelated magnesium before bed and now enjoy deep and restful sleep. [I've recently added in another supplement, melatonin; you can read more about that at the end of this review].
I find that I am more resilient, resistant to stress, & easygoing since taking tryptophan.
I experienced its incredible mood-boosting effect earlier this year after enduring a ruptured appendix. I suffered several complications & had to be put on super strong antibiotics that depleted all my B Vitamins and sent me into a quick but INTENSE bout of post-surgical depression (much like what heart bypass surgery patients experience, according to my surgeon). I spoke with my physician to get his approval, then took just 500 mg of tryptophan that afternoon and then 1500 at bedtime, as usual, and bounced back to my usual cheerful self within JUST 2 DAYS.
Just a suggestion--be sure you're taking it on an EMPTY stomach (about 1-1/2 hours after eating anything).
This is an amino acid & any trace of protein in your stomach will compete with the tryptophan. Don't take with milk; take with water (some experts suggest a couple of sips of apple juice--but I use H2o).
If 3 capsules at bedtime (or an hour before) on an empty stomach won't do the trick after a few days, then it's possible you aren't low on serotonin. If you awake groggy, you're taking too much.
Here's something else that works: 400 mg of CHELATED magnesium (not just magnesium oxide, make sure it is chelated magnesium); the best I know of is this one: [[ASIN:B00014D2DW Chelated Magnesium 200mg - 180 - Tablet]]. Works wonders for sleep and health; most Americans' magnesium levels are chronically low, which can lead to heart issues and other preventable diseases. Get this book to learn more: [[ASIN:1583331565 The Magnesium Factor]].
Hope this helps someone out there; I wish I'd known about tryptophan 10 years ago!
P.S. For hardcore insomniacs for which tryptophan won't do the trick (give it time & remember to take on an empty stomach), try some melatonin; read my review of this product for more detailed info: [[ASIN:B001G7R49Q Source Naturals Melatonin Complex Sublingual Peppermint, 100 tablets (Pack of 2)]]
****UPDATE P.S. Also, please remember that supplements work slowly, over time. Metabolisms vary. Educate yourself; I highly recommend you start with [[ASIN:0142003646 The Mood Cure: The 4-Step Program to Take Charge of Your Emotions--Today]] to quickly \"zero in\" on your own personalized needs.

On arrival it was already nice and soft, compared to some other badger brushes which can sometimes need to be broken in more before getting soft. The handle is made of nice wood, very much resembling the pictures in the item listing. I have uploaded a photo of the brush I received, next to my usual daily brush which I would consider to be of average size, so that you can see that the handle of this one is a little bit longer, and you can see the size of the badger hair plume which is a similar size. The materials all appear to be of high-quality, and it seems well-made. The wood is very smooth. and nicely finished. The handle might be a bit longer than my preference, though that may be because I am used to the other brush I showed in the photo which has a shorter handle.
The brush lathers nicely. The bristles are soft, and only very few of the bristles came out when using this brush, noting that a new brush like this will usually lose a few hairs early on. So this is a positive comment not a negative one, meaning that it lost fewer hairs than some competing brushes.
As badger brushes usually do, it did have a slight musky odor when wet initially. This brush had less of that musky odor than the last new brush I got (not the one in the photo). This brush has just a very slight amount of that odor, which is already almost gone now that I have used it. These badger brushes typically have that scent initially and then it resolves naturally with use, usually within the first couple uses, but that process can be sped up, particularly if you happen to get a brush that has more of that scent. Because that scent is so slight with this brush, which is another positive for this product, I will add some comments here in case you happen to have more of that musky scent with your brush, even if it is a different brand brush than this one, in case this information might be helpful to you. Again this is considered normal and dissipates over time with use. There a number of home remedies meant to speed up the process of getting rid of the odor from a new badger brush\u2026 People do any number of the following remedies, sometimes using combinations of them. These remedies include mixing a spoonful of Borax in a cup of hot water to soak the brush in for a few minutes, or doing the same with Oxiclean, or with vinegar. Others use Dawn dish soap. Others use two-in-one shampoo and conditioner, or deodorizing pet shampoo, and others preferred to lather up the brush with a more heavily scented shaving cream and allow it to dry on the brushes overnight. I have done a combination of almost all of these, with other brand of brushes, but I have not tried the vinegar or the pet shampoo.
Just to be completely clear, I did not need to use any of these methods with this current brush, as it did not have a problem with the scent, but for your information this is what I did with my last brush (which had quite a stink)\u2026 I lathered the brush up two or three times with Dawn dish soap, once with Borax, twice with Oxiclean, twice with Pert shampoo/conditioner, and I lathered the brush up with Taylor of Old Bond Street\u2019s Sandalwood shaving cream two times, then left the shaving cream on the brush overnight, and then after rinsing it in the morning the odor was gone. If you have a badger shaving brush which has a strong initial musky odor then hopefully some of these tips might help. You likely won\u2019t need to do all of them, and based on my smell test after each of these methods, I think that the most helpful may have been the dawn dish soap and lathering with the shaving cream and leaving that on the brush overnight.
This is a good brush, it makes a nice lather, the bristles are soft, it does not have any significant badger stink, it is good quality, and it will get good use going forward. I like it!", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3706, "id": 56118, "interval": [800, 900], "len_words": 631, "len_tokens": 804, "text": "This is the second manufacturer I have purchased Barley Grass Juice Powder from; TerraSoul (TS from this point forward) was the first. The issue I had with TS was the taste was significantly stronger than what I was used to (prior to that, I started drinking Barley Grass from a Japanese brand Barley Grass Powder), AND it was extremely difficult to get it to mix/dissolve in water.
After reading many reviews on ZNaturals (ZN), I decided to give this one a try; especially since it specifically mentions it dissolves \"easily in water\". Well, once I received it, I immediately put it in the refrigerator, which it recommends (interestingly, no other Barley Grass Juice Powder product that I saw recommends this), and finished the last of my TS.
About a week later, I tried the ZN for the first time. First impressions, it mixed better than the TS in water; not perfectly, not 100%, but better than the TS. I still don't understand this as from everything I read, one of the advantages to Juice Powder over just Barley Grass Powder, is the removal of the cellulose, which is not digestible AND is supposedly what makes the Powder clump and NOT mix in water. So, if any Barley Grass product is a Juice Powder, its cellulose has been removed, and it should be completely dis-solvable/mixable in water, right? I even asked ZN before I bought their product about this, and they responded \"mix vigorously\" in water and it should completely dissolve/mix. While it did not 100% mix, it was definitely better than the TS; there was a little undissolved juice powder floating on top, and the longer I let it sit, more would settle to the top (again, not a huge amount, but not 100% dissolved either).
The second thing I want to mention is the taste. As with the TS product, and apparently ANY Barley Grass Juice Powder, the taste is much, much stronger than just Barley Grass Powder (at least the Japanese brand I was drinking). It is much more like wet grass; whereas the Powder was more like a strong green tea flavor. In my opinion, the ZN was very, very slightly sweeter (natural sweet, not a sugar sweet) than the TS. I actually don't mind it, but several others I've given it to could not drink it straight, they had to add something (juice, almond milk, something...) in order to drink it. I drink it straight, just a scoop of the Juice Powder and approximately 8 ozs of water, every morning.
The only other thing I will say, since there were several reviews that mentioned this, is that on some mornings, I can detect a very, very light saltiness to it; however, it is EXTREMELY light, and I really have to smack, smack, smack my lips/mouth and really try to search for it. I did not find it \"overwhelmingly salty\" or that it had a \"strong salt flavor\" to it. I DO NOT add salt to any food (on a very low sodium diet), I don't cook with salt, and I very rarely eat extremely salty foods (guilty pleasure 1 or 2 times per year). My point is, that I am usually very sensitive to salt, to the point where I have even stopped ordering steaks at many restaurants, and have pretty much stopped eating out at all, because everything seems overly salty to me now. So for what its worth, I did not find the ZN product to be salty...at all.
Bottom line, if you can stand a very strong \"grassy\" flavor, and you mix it very, very vigorously (or in a blender or something like that), then this seems to be a good product at one of the lowest price/oz that I found. I will probably buy again.", "label": 1}

Since I do Uber and sit down a lot I\u2019ve been looking at truckers lifestyle because it is similar and one of the things they mention is the ultimate seat cushion. Not going to lie I was skeptical. No way a seat cushion could get rid of my but pain ache and sores and on top of that it was over 100 dollars too. I looked over the reviews and saw positive ones so I guess I\u2019d give it a try plus as I mentioned before Alex the trucking used it so I\u2019d thought it be good. Anyway shipping took about a week and half and came in a big cardboard box. Then when I opened it I received the ultimate seat cushion as well as the back cushion I ordered and the double seat too. I did read the reviews so they did mention that it smells or it is toxic and it can also melt too. When I took out the seat cushions from the packaging I did notice a smell or I guess you could call it fumes. Yeah it was really strong. But I didn\u2019t care, others do if you read the reviews but all I cared about was if it worked or not. So I read the instructions and properly put the seat cushion together and even with the cover on it still emitted a strong smell. Then I put the ultimate seat cushion in my car seat and man it was huge barely fit. I am 6\u20190 so I already and cramped in my car. I previously owned a Toyota Camry and was cramped in it. Then I purchased a Honda HRV 2019. I was okay in it but when I put the ultimate seat cushion on it my head was hitting the ceiling so I adjusted my seat down but it still wasn\u2019t enough but enough to drive which suited me. I\u2019d recommend if you put this in your car maybe remove the drivers seat because that alone takes up 2-3 inches of height which would help a lot if your tall. But then I\u2019d go to home depot and make your own driver seat from wood steel or plastic and somehow make it work. I\u2019m actually considering this because I\u2019m on the border we\u2019re it\u2019s annoying having my head hit the ceiling of my car and just taking time to get used to. The double seat cushion I purchased too wasn\u2019t the best. Maybe for sitting down for a hour on foldable chair but for car seats I wouldn\u2019t get it. I returned it and am going to buy the royal seat because on the chart where it describes the dimensions and the weight and so on. There was another review on here saying if the ultimate cushion is to much and the next step down is the double seat. Eh.. I don\u2019t agree because I bought both and keep in mind I am under 200 pounds around 176 lbs. The guy mentioned that if you are about this weight then the double seat would work but I doesn\u2019t maybe if you weigh 100 pounds or less. I\u2019d say the next step down after the ultimate is the royal then maybe the double seat after that. I did have to wash the ultimate and the back cushion because they smelled so bad. I put it in my washer for cold water like instructed because heat is its enemy. To much heat will make the cushion melt. After the washer it still smelled so I put it in my bath tub and used my dish soap(Dawns platinum x4 cleaning power) that seems to work but still smelled so I squirted about half a bottle over the cushions making sure soap was in the squares on both sides or at least most of them. After that I let it set and came back checking up every 10 minutes and every time I would take them out of the water and re submerge about 4 times then leave and come back and do it all over again a couple more times. Then it the smell finally started to go away but smelled when you got really close but it was good enough for me. I did notice hat doing that did something to the plastic or the purple stuff like it started to peel off so just be careful when doing this. Over all the cushion is nice and comfortable recommend 5/5 I only used it for 1 day maybe I\u2019ll keep updated on my review late on.", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3709, "id": 74480, "interval": [800, 900], "len_words": 701, "len_tokens": 852, "text": "I participate in fitness competitions so knowing my body composition is crucial to structuring my diet properly and ensuring my training is effective. For the past few years I've had DXA scans or BodPod measurements every 6 months to get a good picture of how I was progressing. After doing a lot of research into using ultrasound for body composition analysis, I decided to try the BodyMetrix. It costs about the same as three DXA scans and I figured if it was even remotely accurate, it would be well worth the investment.
=== The equipment ===
The BodyMetrix device was surprisingly light but the construction is very good. It comes with a small 2 fluid ounce bottle of ultrasound gel. At the rate I was using gel, I'll probably order a large refill. There are a number of 5 liter containers for about $20 here on Amazon. The software is downloaded from their website so there's no CD provided in the box.
=== User profile ===
Creating a user profile is a very simple. Entering your name, gender, height, weight, and \"Athletic Type\" is easy enough. The Mac software didn't allow me to edit any of this after the profile was created, so I had to make a few profiles while I tested to see which Athletic Type gave me the most accurate measurements. Note: The Windows version allows you to manage and delete profiles.
=== Single points / body fat calculations ===
I quickly learned that getting good images and measurements with the BodyMetrix does require some practice. My first attempt said I was 15.5% body fat, but after practicing spot measurements for about an hour I was able to consistently get estimates of 8.3% which is about what my last DXA scan estimated as well. I recommend using lots of gel and be sure the devices makes good contact at a 90\u00b0 angle to the skin. Many of my poor measurements were due to being slightly off 90\u00b0.
The software provides a number of formulae to estimate body composition with varying margins of error. I found the Jackson & Pollock 7-site equation gave me the best estimate. There are new equations being developed and published in scientific/medical journals that I'd like to be able to try, but maybe in a future software update.
=== Image scans ===
Taking image scans requires a lot more practice. Again, lots of gel and good 90\u00b0 contact will give you great results. There are a few settings that will need some adjusting in order to get an ideal image:
Intensity: Similar to contrast in photos, it makes light areas more white and dark areas more black. This can help in defining interfaces between muscle, fat, and bone. You do lose finer details, though, such as inter-muscular fat distribution.
Maximum Thickness: This adjusts how much depth of the scan is shown in the image (10mm - 100mm). Lower thickness means you can see smaller features near the surface and higher thickness shows deeper features but compresses smaller features so they're not visible.
Scan Speed: The device creates an image as a series of single slices. Lower scan speeds makes each slice one pixel wide (good for large areas such as the entire quadricep) and higher speeds make the slices about 6 pixels wide (good for small areas such as the bicep). There's some skill required in gauging how fast to move the device relative to the scan speed in order to get a well-proportioned image.
=== Summary ===
The BodyMetrix was well worth my investment as I found it's accuracy to correlate very strongly with a recent DXA scan. The Mac software isn't as good as it could be, but it does the job. The Windows version is much better - it allows for very fast measurements and more options for data analysis. I highly recommend watching all the videos on IntelaMetrix's YouTube channel as they show exactly how to take all the measurements. Plan to spend a few hours getting a feel for how the device works and you'll be able to take reproducible measurements very easily and consistently.
Overall I'm very excited in how the BodyMetrix will help me get into peak condition for upcoming competitions as well as monitoring my progress in the off-season.", "label": 1}

Summary \u2013 I have used different massagers before, however, this one is the Papa Bear of them all. What I love about this one is how much power it packs. When you put this on, you have a range from 1 which is a nice solid massage up to 10 which has a power hard to believe considering the size. The controls are very easy to use and you can use this without reading the directions in my opinion. There is nothing cheap about this. This unit weighs just over 6lbs and that is perfect to add the right about of tension to feel each and every movement.
In terms of quality, there were no shortages in this department either. This is made of PU Leather which is soft and it has a nice mesh material backing. As you can see in the photos, all the stitching is done using nice thick thread and is uniform and tight. Photos give you no justice as to how nice this is and feels. I made a small video so you can see what type of modes you can select from. Hands down I am very impressed with this massager and if you are like me and end your work day with stress, you will have a solution after using this. The only problem you will have if you live with others is getting it away from them to use it yourself!
Features
-Does an excellent job in reducing stress and tension when you have a long day. I personally feel the area this works best on is the neck, however with the design, you can use this on your upper back, lower back, buttocks, thighs, etc.
-Has a built in safety mechanism so if you use this to the point it gets too warm, this wills imply turn off and only allow this to turn back on after one hour time frame has passed.
-This uses 2 massage balls which create a nice soothing and relaxing tapping \u2013 sensation.
-Has 20 different massages modes. You can use the auto feature which will cycle through all 20 modes in a 15 minute span or you can select your favorite manually.
-Has 10 different intensity settings. (I recommend you use one if you are a petite women or upwards of ten which is a very intense massage. I personally only use 5 or 6 as the intensity and I am a rather fluffy man.)
-Has an easy to view lighted LCD display. There are also leds so you can verify this is plugged in and to verify if this is in automatic or manual mode. (Green is automatic and red is manual.)
-Does not consume a large sum of power. This will use 110/220v at 60watts.
-Made of high quality materials. The upper portion of this is made of PU Leather which is soft and the lower side is covered with a nice durable thick mesh which is nice and comfortable. All the stitching is with thick thread, uniform and tight. There are two straps which hand down with loops on the end and big thick solid snaps. (These can be used to pull down on to add more pressure or can be used to attach to each other to keep it wrapped around.)
-Comes with a nice long cord. I measured and it is approx. 89\u201d long which is ideal to plug in and use nearby on a chair-recliner. (Does not limit you to being very close to an outlet and avoids the need to use an extension cord.)
-Comes with a 90 day guarantee and a 3 year replacement warranty .
If you have questions about this item, please feel to leave me a comment and ask. I am usually very quick to respond and would be happy to assist with anything you need in determining if this is the right product for you.
I don\u2019t know about you, but I depend very heavily on reviews that are posted on Amazon. I also read what reviewers on Amazon have to say. I want to help others by providing my reviews that detail the product as well as the experience I have with the products that I get on Amazon.
Please note I have no relationship with this seller. I did receive this at a discounted price in exchange for an unbiased and honest review. I take my reviews serious and will only provide my true feedback. Thank you!", "label": 1}

Let's start with a mini biology lesson: Trillions of bacteria already live in your child's (and your own) gastrointestinal system, many of which are considered to be good because they help keep him healthy. They've been there since birth, when your baby's GI tract became colonized with good, bad, and benign bacteria (known as flora) as he passed through the birth canal and picked up some of your microbes. Because babies delivered by C-section miss out on this, they initially end up with a different collection of flora, (Scientists suspect that this difference in colonization may be behind the higher incidence of allergies and asthma in C-section babies, but more research is needed.)

I am now editing my review to add more information. (06/2018)
Charcoal bamboo inserts are my favorite because the fleece-like outer layer stays bone dry against baby\u2019s skin. Out of all the inserts I\u2019ve bought, See Diapers are the most impressive. The length and the square edges of See Diapers inserts make them perfect for covers b/c they cover the PUL completely, so the PUL isn\u2019t directly against baby\u2019s skin-- unlike shorter inserts with rounded edges. In addition to being longer than others, See Diapers are darker than others and hold up better in the wash. They are also thinner and more flexible-- compared to others, which are thicker and bulkier-- without sacrificing absorbency. They can keep my 20+ lb super soakers dry overnight (12+ hours) even without doublers.
I have also ordered charcoal bamboo inserts from Naturally Nature, AngelicWare, and Bottoms Beautiful. The Bottoms Beautiful, I returned immediately without even washing b/c their product description was misleading re: the length. (They are advertised as 16.5\u201d but are actually 13\u201d, whereas See Diapers are advertised as 14\u201d and are truly 14\u201d.) The Naturally Nature, I returned because they started pilling and the seams started falling apart on more than one insert just after the first wash. The AngelicWare, I kept and have been using since 2015, but I would not buy them again, as they are shorter and bulkier than See Diapers.
In fact, I was so impressed with See Diapers the first time I ordered them that I ordered a second set (07/2016) the same day that the first set arrived. I ordered another set about two months later (09/2016) because I wanted to try them without gussets. (I prefer gussets.) I ordered a fourth set (06/2016) almost a year later because (Surprise!) I had babies 18 months apart. In my most recent order (06/2016), the inserts were softer than ever and so dark they were almost black. The quality was remarkable. I honestly wish I had an excuse to order more, but I already have a nice stash-- 12+ covers, 12+ pockets, 50+ inserts, and 8+ doublers. Plus, my youngest is turning 2 soon, so my diapering days are nearly done. At any rate...
What makes See Diapers better:
-A full 1\u201d longer than other brands
-Thin/soft, not thick/bulky-- but still no leaks
-Seams hold up in the wash 3 years later
-Nice, square edges and darker color than others
-Priced the same as others, despite higher quality
-Not as much pilling as others
- No sewn-in tags, so they are reversible
NOTE: I use them with Bububibi/BB2 covers. [[ASIN:B01HP1GXI4 BB2 Baby One Size Printed Minky Minkee Snaps Cloth Diaper Cover for Prefolds (One Size, Monkeys)]] (No Velcro, just snaps, so I can't speak to that issue.) Two inserts in the daytime, one insert and one Thirsties hemp doubler at nighttime. [[ASIN:B002FB7FLY Thirsties Hemp Inserts 2-pack, Size Large]] I try new detergents recommended on CD blogs occasionally, but these have mostly been washed with Ecos Free & Clear over the years-- though lately I'm using a mix of Ecos, Tide, and Foca to see what I like best. If you try to only use one insert with an older/larger baby, or if you use a detergent that can cause buildup, and so on, you might experience leaks. However, after 6+ years of cloth diapering, these are the best inserts I've ever used.", "label": 1}

Hoover is a special brand in the vacuum industry. Indeed, in the United Kingdom, vacuuming is referred to as "hoovering." They are a pioneer of the industry.
Hoover's latest products aim to get them back as a premium brand in the space. Over the years, Hoover's products had been driven towards a race to be a more affordable option. While many of those options still exist, Hoover is now attempting to take on premiums brands such as Roomba and Dyson with some of its latest products.
This robot vacuum clearly takes on iRobot's Roomba brand. I have owned a Roomba for nearly five years, therefore, I was excited to check out Hoover's offering. Many of the features on this Hoover compare beautifully to my similarly priced Roomba. Automatic docking station, virtual wall, fantastic side brush, and bumper are features that make the two units very similar and perform nicely. In addition, this Hoover includes a remote control and bluetooth, features I do not have on my Roomba. The battery run time of up to 90 minute is also vastly superior to my Roomba.
Overall, operating the unit, I see similar performance to my Roomba, though the long battery runtime of this Hoover seems to make it more capable from the first use. I felt my Roomba always worked best on a super clean floor, the Hoover doesn't suffer as much if you have a corner or spot under some furniture that has been neglected a couple weeks. The Roomba would tend to get filled up or clogged up easier if you didn't start with a super clean room. Once the Roomba had been operating, automatically, several weeks, it was great.
The bluetooth and remote are handy, though a scheduled vacuuming is ideal. Running the unit in the same room or rooms 2-3x per week keeps the carpet looking oh so fresh. There really is no match for regular multiple times per week vacuuming. That would be a chore with a heavy, large upright vacuum. However, with the Quest 700 from Hoover, the robot does the work for you, which makes the multiple times per week vacuuming that leaves your carpet so fluffy, comfortable, and clean, easy to achieve. That is my favorite feature of robot vacuums, unlike people who might keep putting off the chore, the robot won't. You truly see over the first couple weeks, your carpet gets nicer and nicer. A 15 minute upright cleaning just can't match multiple, robotic vacuum sessions throughout the week.
My least favorite feature of these vacuums is cleaning out the bin, keeping the brushes clean, etc. It's a rather dirty job. That's why, again, it's best to start with a clean carpet and use these units for maintenance, that will keep down the maintenance you have to do on the robot!
I would also caution they are best to use in rooms and a home without cables, shoes, or other objects in their way. Otherwise, the robots are going to drag these objects around your room. You want a rather clear room for the robot. Furniture is fine, it will gently bump into it and change direction, but movable objects or cables are not so great.
Overall, Hoover has a very competent entry level machine with the Quest 700. I prefer it to my nearly five year old entry level Roomba. It's a great introduction to robotic vacuuming. Should my budget allow in the future, I would like to see if the features and performance of the higher end Hoover Quests might impress me even more. Still, this unit is a sweet spot. You get a lot of convenience and features at an affordable price.
I certainly recommend this Hoover Quest 700. I am excited to have this in my home!", "label": 1}

When using the flosser I now place the rubber plug into the charging port after learning my lesson with this unit. I gave this one to my sister to try and advised her to place the small rubber adapter into the charging port when using it. I noticed after using the unit that calcium deposits developed inside the charging port. I cleaned it out, but it did not help my situation. The unit would not power on.
Today, I received correspondence from customer service:
Hello dear.
Sorry for disturbing again.
According to our technical team, the water flosser stop working probably because it get wet. But our water flosser are IPX7 waterproof. It wouldn't get wet even using it while taking shower. Could you check that whether you plug the cover for charging interface? Please remember to plug the cover while using.
By the way, your review is really important for us. We would be grateful if you can remove it at your earliest convenience.
Looking forward to your response.
Sincerely
CSmile service team
After the email, I upgraded my review to reflect 4 stars instead of 3. However, I am still not sure if the unit was defective or stopped working because of me using it without the adapter inside the charging port. I advised customer service they need to update their instructions on the site and those with the unit to state to place the small adapter inside the charging port when in use.
I will not be removing my review because it was my honest experience of using the unit. As I advised customer service I will update the review, but not remove it. I think it would be dishonest to do so because I was sent another unit. I am still not sure if the unit wasn't defective or if it failed because of the charging port not being protected. I mean this thing is supposed to be waterproof, right?
Previous review: This water flosser works as described. If you haven't used one of these before, it is quite a different feeling against your gum line. It fits well in your hand, but you can't effectively use it without mistakenly hitting the power or pressure mode buttons. Most of the time, I have to hold it on the bottom (by its base) because otherwise being able to maneuver it around can be frustrating because of the sensitivity of the pressure mode and power buttons before you can get it into your mouth.
I cannot describe how many times I've had to wipe down my mirror and walls because I accidentally pressed the power button before I could get it into my mouth. Holding it at the base is the best way to use it.
For two days I have not been able to use the water flosser because it stopped working. It has a full battery but yet will not turn on. I filled it with water and made sure the water tank was attached correctly...nothing. I placed it on my sink and walked away. I returned and could hear a noise of some sort. Upon investigation, the water flosser had come on and was squirting water onto the ceiling and light fixture in my bathroom. Crazy! I tried my darnedest to make sure it was off before leaving it alone, but it wouldn't come on. I assumed it would be another day of not working. However, it started working and sprayed my ceiling and light fixture before I could turn it off.
I'm not clear why it is now working intermittently. It's not one that I would recommend because if it is waterlogged then I would have to question if it is really waterproof. Because I am not careful with the amount of water that gets on the flosser because I thought it would not be a problem. The water issue is about the only thing that I can imagine could have made it stop working or working on its own.
**Update: I reached out to the seller regarding the issues with this device. The seller was very nice about replacing it. I was sent another one with no problems. Customer service is excellent and aims to please. They are very serious about making your purchasing and user experience pleasant. They will do what it takes to make you a satisfied customer.", "label": 1}

For instance, it decreases PMS for me, alleviates joint pain that I get occasionally or if I've had a minor injury, and I find sleep better when taking it. This formula has the addition of COQ10 in it which is also a supplement that I take but was out of. COQ10 starts to diminish as we age but besides taking it for that reason I took it because it actually gives me energy throughout the day. I noticed a difference in my energy after I ran out of my COQ10 recently.
So, I ran out a couple of the Krill Oil that I take daily a few months ago. Wow, I felt it. The PMS symptoms were pretty bad last couple of months. As much as I know Krill Oil and the Omegas play a part in this it just did not register that not taking krill was causing my symptoms. I also had some residual joint pain that had subsided after taking it.
So, I looked online for a krill oil to start taking again. I found this one here and it seemed to be of good quality. I have read the reviews stating that the omega 3's and epa levels were not high enough. In my opinion and experience I have not needed those higher doses to get the medicinal effects of it. This theory was put to the test recently with trying the DailyNutra Neptune Krill Oil.
So, after taking for a while I noticed a huge reduction with the PMS again! I am sleeping better. I am calmer in situations that I haven't been lately. And, some joint pain I was having is gone again. During the day I definitely noticed more energy. I am a big believer in Krill Oil and COQ10 and this brand does not disappoint. I am so satisfied with results that I will be a repeat buyer. The pills are small and you take two, simple. No smell but do have a mildly sweet vanilla taste. I actually like the taste, different from the other krill that I took.
I can recommend this brand of krill oil with no doubts. It has worked for me.
Neptune Krill Oil (NKO) is known for its unique fatty acid (FA) profile, as well as for its rich antioxidant content. NKO's balanced fatty acid content includes not only EPA and DHA, the crucial Omega-3 , but Omega-9 and phospholipids, as well. NKO is a rich source of Astaxanthin, a powerful immune-supporting antioxidant. Clinical studies have shown that NKO can support joint comfort, healthy blood lipid levels, and may reduce symptoms of pre-menstrual syndrome.
KRILL OIL VS FISH OIL: Krill oil is an omega-3 nutrient and is an alternative source of omega-3 than fish oil. Some folks prefer krill oil over fish oil because they believe it has increased bioavailability and better absorption than fish oil, and contains the additional nutrients, Astaxanthin and Phospholipids. In fact, this is correct. Krill oil has better bioavailability and absorption than fish oil and contains Astaxanthin and Phospholipids, neither of which are contained in fish oil.
ASTAXANTHIN: Astaxanthin is a powerful anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory. It is a red-pink substance found in various seafoods such as salmon, trout, krill, lobster and cooked shrimp. It is responsible for the red color of salmon meat, cooked shellfish and flamingo feathers. It is present in krill oil but not in fish oil.
The presence of astaxanthin in krill oil, combined with other naturally occurring antioxidants in the oil (Vitamins E and A), provides protection against oxidation of the oil, making it stable for a long time. It also protects the body against free radical attacks which can cause aging of the cells. Antioxidants are usually added in fish oil to prevent the oil from oxidizing as they do not have any on their own.", "label": 1}

This one seems to work. It's the first supplement related to ecdysterone or turkesterone I've tried that really does seem to offer some benefits. I didn't get that benefit from the bulk packages of powdered turkesterone from another reputable vendor -- three months of using that seemed to have little or no benefit.
Most positive reviews about supplements appear to be misguided (see the revised recommendations to avoid excessive antioxidants) or placebo effect (hey, nothing wrong with the power of positive thinking -- but why pay extra for it in a gel capsule?). That includes most antioxidants, remedies for bone health, joints and cartilage, and most supplements marketed to athletes and physically active people for energy and better performance. Tried 'em. Most seem to do nothing.
The few exceptions include creatine (well documented and non-controversial), niacin (blood flow), and l-arginine (the latter helps the body produce nitric oxide on the fly as needed, especially in daylight).
I've been an on/off serious amateur athlete since my teens, now in my early 60s, including amateur boxing, long bike rides and occasional races when I was in my teens and early 20s. Like most healthy folks, in my youth all I needed was a healthy diet, good training program and rest. As I got older, well... not so much.
After my thyroid failed a couple of years ago my energy dropped to nil. I went from vigorous bike rides several times a week to barely being able to get out of bed. My endocrinologist and other doctors didn't seem concerned. As far as they were concerned my lab tests looked normal. So other than levothyroxine, the common thyroid replacement, they didn't offer any solutions or suggestions. And, nope, my health care plan doesn't include fountain of youth prescriptions (PEDs, if you're competing in sanctioned events, which I'm not doing). They even cut back on testosterone patches for anyone without a medically indicated need such as double orchiectomy. They used to prescribe those for active men who just felt more tired with age. But not any more.
So for the past year I've tried everything I can find over the counter, including DHEA and pregnenolone. After trying several brands I found one brand of DHEA that seemed to offer some benefit, but I couldn't be sure it wasn't placebo effect. It seemed like my endurance was improving. My short term energy bursts -- sprints and short steep hill climbs -- were already improving from creatine, and maybe from l-arginine. But not my endurance. I still faded after 20 miles on fast solo and group rides.
But the effect of the S5 beta-ecdysterone was almost immediately noticeable. Within a few days I noticed a distinct improvement in my bicycling endurance. My interval training sessions were more vigorous and I had enough energy afterward for full body workouts. And my endurance on longer sustained effort rides improved significantly. I'm pushing bigger gears, including on climbs, without my quads and calves burning. Friends who follow me on Strava commented on my recent speed boost, consistently 1-2 mph faster on the usual 20-40 mile training routes. A few months ago I couldn't even finish those rides. Now on good days I'm able to keep up with the A-group rides with guys much younger than I, whereas a couple of years ago when my thyroid failed I struggled to keep up with the B-group, and even with some stronger casual riders on social rides.
I'm not looking to get bigger, just stronger. Unlike creatine, which is good for short duration high intensity exercise, this stuff seems to help with sustained effort.
I'm still skeptical. S5 hasn't published any lab results and I don't see any independent lab tests. It's pretty well documented that many supplements marketed to athletes surreptitiously contain stimulants like caffeine and ephedra to give an energy boost that makes it feel like it's doing something. And some even sneak in other banned substances. So I don't know for certain how or why the S5 Labs beta-ecdysterone is working.
But I just ordered another bottle, something I rarely do if I have doubts about whether a supplement works.", "label": 1}

I am very, very picky with cleansers as they tend to dry my skin out no matter how moisturizing they claim to be. I have olive skin, it is dry and needs a lot of hydration. I am blessed by the gods and have no acne issues. My problem is redness and uneven/rough/dull skin. And dark circles.
That said, I love, love this product. A little goes a long way. It has the consistency of shaving cream. It tingles a little when you put on and you can kind of feel it doing it's job. It smells fine, and the fragrance is not overwhelming. I very, very gently rubbed in light circles. I don't think you should be really rubbing any product into your face, hence I try to rub as little as possible [and I think there is a lot of info to support this out there]. I use it after using an oil cleanser [to remove make up and impurities--this i just pat on and then rinse off it is magical]. I think this stuff brightens my face a little, but then I think almost all Korean skincare products do. I only use this product in the evening. Cleansing oil I use in the morning and evening. My skin looks polished and smooth and my pores look smaller [i think, but my pores are only really noticecable on my nose]. The product says it can be used as a mask if you leave on for 2 minutes. I did not do that.
When I finished [and I use room temperature/lukewarm water] I rinsed and then splashed some cold water on to close my pores. Then I use a toner [a moisturizing one, regular toners burn my skin]. When I am done I use a serum, then an eye cream. Once a week I use a mask after the eye cream [I recommend my beauty diary]. But if no mask then I use an emulsion, then a moisturizing cream [I still use these two even if I use a mask]. Twice a week I finish with a sleeping pack before bed.
I am working in an exfoliator. My skin looks amazing and it is very, very bight and smooth and pretty. No, it isn't bleached but I sincerely feel for the first time ever feel like I got that celebrity skin going on. I am really happy. Of course keep in mind that I also use like 10 other proucts and that whatever works for me or other reviewers may not work for you--skin, I have learned, is not to be generalized or taken lightly. See what works for you. Sometimes you waste money but it is all part of the pursuit of finding what works for you. But I highly recommend this.
Oh, and in the mornings when I am done with everything I put on a sunblock then cc cream. Except for the Etude house cleanser, every product I use is from Laneige. The masks are my beauty diary and the cleanser is rice water oil cleanser. The exfoliator, when I get it, is skinfood sugar scrub. I do NOT use the mircacle toner because I am happy with my laneige toner. Maybe when that runs out I will give the other toner a try but that is unlikely.
I broke it all down because I loved the product, think it did it's job, but I also use like 10 other products so it is difficult to say how well it works alone. I use very little make up [natural look]. I think that if you purchase, look at it as a good investment. Clothing goes out of style but your skin will be with you forever!", "label": 1}

The brush heads are attached via a bayonet fitting to the top of the toothbrush. The fit works OK. The bristles are very soft. The product description does state soft. There\u2019s no color indicator for when to replace the heads. The manual states to do it when the bristles are worn and bent over.
.
The toothbrush itself is fairly light but will stand up on its end without issue. Charging, recommended every 10-14 days, is achieved by removing a bayonet cap at the bottom and plugging in the proprietary USB-C charging cable (no charging brick included). The LED will glow red. However, it does not seem to turn off when a full charge is achieved. Plugged in \u2013 LED always glows red.
There is a selector button. Press once to turn ON. Long press to turn OFF. Once ON, a button press will cycle through the various vibration modes. If you long press to turn the unit OFF, when restarting, the toothbrush does remember the last mode setting. I found it all too easy though to change the mode when turning the unit OFF, by forgetting to long press!
The vibration modes really don\u2019t change much other than a little maximum intensity variation and a slight change in the variable vibration pattern. There is a noticeable long pause at the 30 second intervals. You briefly think the toothbrush has turned off. To be honest, I\u2019ve never used the different modes on my other electric toothbrushes. They are more of a gimmick than a useful function IMHO.
.
PERFORMANCE:
.
I had high hopes but was sorely disappointed. Yes, the toothbrush vibrates, but the level is so low, you have to use it like a manual toothbrush to get any cleaning effect. I just felt like I was back to using a manual toothbrush that shook in my hand.
I feel more vibration in my hand than on my teeth! The very soft bristles absorb any movement over their length and the ends essentially don\u2019t move against the tooth surface.
I created the attached video to try and illustrate the difference between the Sonicare and the Eoryeo. You can easily see how the level of vibration is so much less on the Eoryeo. I chose the POLISH mode as that was the strongest.
.
CONCLUSION:
.
Nice price. Comprehensive set. No use.
.
Don\u2019t waste your money! You aren\u2019t getting the real benefit of an electric toothbrush, just a shaking manual toothbrush. I suppose if you have really sensitive gums and need a soft bristled brush and gentle vibrations, maybe this would work for you, but, in that case, I\u2019d just buy a soft-bristled, manual toothbrush and talk with my dentist!
My dentist advises that you should not press an electric toothbrush hard against your teeth with a hand-hold grip but hold it at the end, or between two fingers, and let the brush head do the work. There\u2019s no way, the Eoryeo Electric Toothbrush will work like that.
.
This set is unfortunately going in the trash at my house and I\u2019ll be off to buy another Sonicare!", "label": 0}

I found these made my shoes MUCH too tight as the insoles that came in the shoes couldn't be removed. I have put them in my rubber boots, having been able to remove those insoles, which was about the same thickness as these at the front end, and they are really comfortable. I think I'll be using the half insoles in future as they seem to suit my shoes better.
ORIGINAL REVIEW:
I use orthotic insoles in all my shoes, even my slippers, to alleviate some of the pain of arthritis in my foot joints. I have several half-insole Rooruns and have worn out several Walk-fits. So, when I saw these in my \"Recommended for you\" list as an Amazon Vine Reviewer, I thought they are worth trying. As a Vine Reviewer, I was able to order these at no cost to me, in exchange for an objective and detailed review.
Here it is...
The construction is typical of Rooruns, with various layers of material to provide comfort and support. I do wish they were stiffer or were flat on the bottom, as they tend to bend under foot, losing some of the free shape, especially if the shoe has no arch support profile. That said, they do provide noticeable support in flat shoes. Also, the Rooruns I have do not lose their shape with repeated use and are very durable. The half-insole one in the photo has been in my shoes for some time now, with little sign of wear. My slippers' insoles have the most wear and that's a fading of the fabric color, the upper fabric layer has worn down under the heel (but not peeled, just worn) and the heel cushion/pad is starting to come loose. However, the slippers have the most hours on them, several hours a day over several months with the typical lack of support to stop the foot sliding around. I expect these full insoles to perform just as well. That is one key feature which draws me to Roorun insoles - durability.
The arch profile is definitely higher than my other Rooruns and I have high arches, so that felt good under my feet.
I ordered the XL for my size 13 feet. On the floor, the insoles seemed much longer than my feet and I was thinking I would need to cut the front ends down. There are molded-in lines underneath to suggest where and how to cut. However, when I tried to put them in my loafers, I found that forcing them over the top of the heel, down into the actually-longer sole area of the shoe, they fit my size 13 shoes perfectly. They do reduce volume inside the shoe, especially in the heel area. I measured them at approx. 3/8\" thick at the heel, but that's the same as my half-insoles. The extra material under the toes, which I'm not used to, did make my shoes feel a little tighter at the front and top.
Interestingly, the round heel cushion/pad under the insole has a plastic film over it. Remove the film and the pad is very sticky. Presumably to retain its position in the shoe. Now why would you need that on the full insole when it's trapped front and rear in position, yet the half-insoles do not have it, and actually would stay put better with it?!
The half-insoles often slip forward when I put shoes or boots on.
ROORUN: PLEASE NOTE: I wish that sticky pad feature was on the half-insoles!
The price is competitive and only $6 or so more than the half insoles. I still think I prefer the half insoles, but the higher arch might be better for me. We will see.
I haven't had a chance to wear these for an extended time. I will get that chance this coming weekend on a trip. I'll update the review after I get more miles with these insoles.
I hope my review has been helpful.", "label": 1}

Now before all of you PETA loving people have anything to say, our dogs love their crates. We\u2019ve made it their homes, and they are never in for long periods of time.
One of the dogs in the crates is a labradoodle, the other is my giant baby, our English mastiff, Athena. Now Athena is my child from before me and my fianc\u00e9 got together, so she is really really my baby, although before all you non-favoriting parents (we all know your lying and you really do have favorites) have anything to say, I treat them all equally. So Athena is flawless, but she does have something called excessive drool.
Her daily routine consists of shaking when I wake her up and when shaking, throwing her drool all over me, the walls, and anything else in a 10 foot radius. Needless to say, the walls now needed to be cleaned.
So I get this amazing idea that I\u2019m going to surprise my fianc\u00e9 and clean the base boards and the walls. Little did I know this was going to be a real project. I get super prepared, at least I thought so. I have rags, paper towels, 409, and anything other cleaning supply that isn\u2019t supposed to be used on walls (they\u2019ve got to be lying to me right? It just means it\u2019s super powerful) with me ready to tackle this monster of a wall. Two hours later I haven\u2019t even made a dent. But I\u2019m determined and keep cleaning. Dried drool on the wall is a nightmare FYI.
So about 30 minutes later my fianc\u00e9 comes in, and she\u2019s laughing because I\u2019m sweating my butt off, I\u2019ve stripped to my boxers only, and I\u2019m cleaning this stupid drool off this stupid wall, and I haven\u2019t made any progress at all. She laughs more, I get mad, and well you know how bickering goes. So she comes back in the room and tells me to use this tool.
I mean it\u2019s a freaking white sponge, I\u2019ve used every dang chemical I could find in the house. I laugh laugh and say that\u2019s never ever going to work. This dumb little baby sponge is not going to do the job. So just to show her up, I use this thing after putting some water on it. Much to my surprise it starts coming off, and not just a little, all of it is coming off super easy. So I pretend like it\u2019s not working, sit in there another 2 hours (even though I was done after 30 mins and 3 magic erasers later) and then tell her I finally finished. I tell her how terrible the eraser was and blah blah blah how I had to tackle it like a man. Put some elbow grease on it, and got it done.
Well I messed up in my plans because I realized that I used the last 3 magic erasers in the house. She doesn\u2019t typically clean until the weekend and this was late Sunday, so I\u2019ve got about a week to sneak them in the house and pretend like nothing ever happened. I hop on amazon, and see they are pretty decently priced. Then I start to reminisce and remember how awesome they worked I get excited, forgetting about our argument, and how I had to be right, and I decide to order 5 boxes of 8 of these. Completely forgetting that they will be at the house in 2 days with amazon prime.
Well two days later here we are. I\u2019m happy I received 40 magic erasers, but boy am I in some trouble. These are essential to any cleaning job. I don\u2019t even care what it is. I\u2019m going to be using one. I might even use it to clean a clean wall just because it\u2019s so satisfying.
Thanks for reading and good luck cleaning. By the way, this is a true story.
P.S. Don\u2019t feel bad for my fianc\u00e9, I\u2019m the one always getting in trouble for nothing.
Product is still amazing, we keep tons of these at the house, and still recommend this product to everybody (yes, even you PETA lovers, isn\u2019t that nice of me?).", "label": 1}

My heart rate is typically about 100bpm, and whenever I go to the doctor my blood pressure is something like 140/90. I feel like I have a subconscious anxiety where I don't think or feel anxious, but the effects of anxiety are there in my body and the back of my mind.
Anyway, this arrived in my mailbox (get the larger size if you have prime) and I immediately mixed a shy half a tablespoonful with my hot chocolate. *Note: it doesn't mix with hot water. Only mix it with cold water or it'll lump up and you'll have to lick it off the spoon. It smells kinda sickly sweet, but also like juice at the same time. It does taste better than it smells. I did notice a mild numbing on the tip of my tongue, but as a redhead local/topical anesthetics don't work very well for us so it quickly subsided within 1 minute. I felt pretty ok, but not free of anxiety, and my muscles were still tense. I had another serving the same size a couple hours later. I felt the same with this serving as with the first one.
The next day (today) I had a whole spoonful of this stuff in some apple juice. I feel like the effects are so subtle that I've been dismissing them as placebo. The following are the effects I have noticed so far:
#1: I have difficulty after it kicks in to form mature adult-like thought patterns. Mostly I laugh as adult jokes when my parents are nearby, and I realize that "oh, I shouldn't be laughing at that right now, dad's right there", but at the same time I don't care. You hear that, dad, I just don't care. I also enjoy myself a lot more watching funny/strange videos. Look up "Berdthday boy" (note the spelling) on youtube and you'll know what I'm talking about.
#2: I've been thinking some really strange thoughts and sentences, even the day after I drink my tea. One word in my head leads to the next and then I've got this image in my head of a moocow propelling itself through space with her farts. I wish I could text these thoughts to my girlfriend, but she's been really busy at school.
#3: English words are strange and it's weird to type sentences.
#4: I'm feelink (see, I thought "g" makes close to a "k" so I accidentally typed a k) a slight level relaxation right now, 8 hours after I had my tea, and I'm feeling #3 very much right now. It's 2:30am, but I'm cool with that and my back muscles aren't really tense at all
#5: Vivid dreams. I normally just black out and wake up the next day for school, even on the weekend. I largely attribute this to the brain's ability to determine if it wants to conserve energy by reducing throughput. I had a vivid dream for the first time in ever. Though it was partially about anxiety about getting something done for another person I don't care about (sounds like grading papers for my boss), I could recall feelings I had, places I was, objects I saw, I even had a dream that there were corn chips in my kitchen and I was disappointed tonight when I realized we don't actually have fritos.
#6: Insomnia is a choice for me right now. Usually I get in bed and stare at my eyelids for an hour. I didn't have trouble falling asleep yesterday, and I really feel like I could fall asleep no problem right now, and I should really go to sleep but it's winter break so HA!.
I would imagine these effects would continue to build if I make tea tomorrow morning. Good thing I'm on winter break. I really needed this after an extremely stressful line of work I was trapped in for a year and a half there, and it's over now. I was going to drink to toast the end of it, but this is starting to feel like a much better alternative. I really feel like playing some great video games and just sprouting my couchpotato roots.", "label": 1}

We were told by a chiropractor to use it 2-3 times a week and not every day. The shiatsu function is pretty strong. We havent had any problems with it.
2018.
We have only had the chair about 2 weeks but we love it. We placed the order on Thursday evening and it arrived on Tuesday morning of the next week. That was a very happy surprise since we didn't expect it for at least a week or 10 days. It is a little bulky so we had to have help to get it in the house. Once you get it on the rolling wheels, it is a lot easier to maneuver around the house. As for the actual massaging quality - it is great for someone that hasn't had a chair like this before (we have test tried some other chairs)! It takes a little getting used to because some sections of the rollers are pretty deep/hard on the back and feet. The airbags are pretty hard on your calfs too sometimes. So the first time make sure you have the remote in hand to press the pause button as needed. The foot massage is really deep too. I did not realize that I had areas on my feet/soles that I actually couldn't feel before we had the chair. With this foot massage function it seemed to rejuvenate my feet quite a bit. In the automatic massage modes the airbags actually keep your legs and feet pressed down so you cannot move your foot away from the rollers on the bottom and you really get a good deep massage there. If you are not ready for that you may want to try the manual mode first and see what works best for you. You can also move your feet in between the airbag squeezes and cover different areas of the feet/soles, which I really needed. It is also great that the main rollers go all the way down to the hip/bottom area and there are different modes for different sections of your body. If you have hip/sciatic nerve problems like I did it works on the areas you need and you can even stop it with the remote and work that area for a while. My husband has lower back issues so he likes that feature since he can pinpoint the area and use different methods on that specific area. The Kneading is my favorite but it also works well in the Shiatsu mode and I can also do the knocking and kneading together to work on the upper back and shoulders area. You can choose a whole body massage too or just a certain area. You just have to be careful and make sure you don't overdo it to start with. I didn't realize I had knots in my back, shoulders and feet until I sat on the chair and started a massage. The first day I was a little sore since my muscles were not used to actually being massaged. So I highly recommend to do a little the first day and gradually ease into it. You may be really excited, like we were, and try to do 30 min or more the first time and try to figure out all the functions but try to not do that much or your muscles will be sore the next day. I really hope the rest of the reviews are correct and we have this chair for a few years without having mechanical issues. It works really well for the cost of it. It seems to be put together quite well as well. It doesn't look or feel cheap at all. I was afraid the leather will be really thin and not last for too long but it feels like it will last a while. I would highly recommend this product to anybody. We also consulted with a Chiropractor before we bought a massage chair. He recommended the type where the roller goes up and down your spine, like this one and not the stationary type. He was absolutely correct since we enjoy the up and down rollers a lot! You cannot use this as a recliner as it does not have the padding and the rollers are not comfortable unless they are in motion and massaging you. We have tried the zero gravity position without the massaging but it only helps for a little bit. This chair is made for the medical benefits and massaging functions only and not as a regular chair.", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3723, "id": 140762, "interval": [800, 900], "len_words": 663, "len_tokens": 857, "text": "Please use vegetable glycerine... There is no sustainable palm oil, it is a lie. Globally, 193 critically endangered, threatened and vulnerable species are threatened by palm oil production.
Palm oil is used in all sorts of everyday products from shampoo to chocolate, but it\u2019s been disastrous for the world\u2019s forests. Here are five not-so-fun facts about \u2018certified sustainable\u2019 palm oil, which is often anything but.
1. Palm oil is cheap \u2013 and we\u2019re using way too much of it
Palm oil is a vegetable oil \u2013 like sunflower or olive oil. It\u2019s made from the fruit of oil palm trees \u2013 Elaeis guineensis \u2013 which come from West Africa but were taken to Southeast Asia in the 1960s. Palm oil can be produced sustainably \u2013 but a lot of it isn\u2019t.
Palm oil is great for big food and cosmetics companies, because it\u2019s cheap and versatile. It\u2019s used in many of the things we use or eat every day: shampoo, bread, toothpaste, detergent and even snacks and chocolate bars.
Not only do roughly half of the processed goods in the supermarket contain palm oil, but millions of tonnes of palm oil are going into the tanks of people\u2019s cars. More than 50% of palm oil coming into Europe (but not the UK) is for biofuel.
2. Palm oil is a major cause of forest destruction
The palm oil industry has been a disaster for the world\u2019s forests, wildlife and climate. Palm oil is mostly grown in Indonesia and Malaysia, two tropical countries with large areas of rainforest home to tigers, orangutans and other species that are found nowhere else on earth.
Palm oil companies have been destroying these rainforests because they want more land to grow oil palm trees.
Around 24 million hectares of rainforest were destroyed in Indonesia between 1990 and 2015, according to official figures from the Indonesian government. That\u2019s an area the size of the UK. Palm oil and paper companies are the main causes of this destruction.
3. Palm oil is devastating the world\u2019s wildlife
Destroying forests and replacing them with palm oil plantations wipes out critical habitat for animals that have nowhere else to go. Half of the Bornean orangutan population has been wiped out in just 16 years.
More than three-quarters of Indonesia\u2019s Tesso Nilo national park, home to tigers, orangutans and elephants, has been converted into illegal palm oil plantations.
4. \u2018Certified sustainable\u2019 palm oil is a con
In 2004, the palm oil industry set up the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). RSPO members have their palm oil \u2018certified sustainable\u2019 and brands using this palm oil get to claim that their palm oil is \u2018sustainable\u2019.
Most supermarkets in the UK and many consumer brands like Nestl\u00e9 and Mondelez use RSPO palm oil in their products.
The RSPO took 14 years to ban its members from destroying forests \u2013 which it finally did in November 2018. It still hasn\u2019t enforced this new rule \u2013 and RSPO members are still destroying forests and getting away with it.
RSPO members were right at the centre of Indonesia\u2019s 2015 forest fires crisis. This year, the fires returned \u2013 and roughly three-quarters of the fires linked to palm oil companies were on RSPO members\u2019 land. This means that so-called \u2018sustainable\u2019 palm oil growers are \u2013 in some cases \u2013 at the forefront of Indonesia\u2019s environmental crisis.
5. Brands have broken their promise to end deforestation for palm oil
Back in 2010, some of the world\u2019s biggest brands promised to protect forests and clean up the palm oil industry by 2020. That\u2019s less than two months away \u2013 and companies are miles away from ending deforestation for palm oil.
Many still don\u2019t even know where their palm oil comes from. In fact, there\u2019s no way for brands to tell how much forest is being destroyed to supply them with cheap palm oil.
Brands have broken their promise to clean up the palm oil industry. To save Indonesia\u2019s rainforests brands have to use less palm oil \u2013 and any palm oil they do use must come from suppliers that are 100% deforestation-free.", "label": 0}

You need to do that only with baking soda that is consumable, this is not.
Great container than the cardboard box since I can place it right in my shower. Sodium bicarbonate is a mild alkaline compound that can help neutralize the PH balance of skin. This 'buffering effect' may help quell the inflammation that occurs at the skin's surface, easing soreness. Used topically, baking soda takes the sting out of sunburn and minimizes the itch and discomfort caused by a variety of skin conditions (including eczema, prickly heat, and poison ivy). To get relief, place a cup of baking soda under a running bath tap so it dissolves completely, and then soak in the water for about 30 minutes. For my daily use I just make a paste for rubbing on the skin just like any lotion. I even mix in a container with water and apply with a soft towel in the shower. For cleaning equal mix of Borax and baking soda bring happiness to any dishwasher and washing machine for clean smelling clothes with no perfume.
I use others for internal use including brushing, you need to do your own research. Any food ingredient should be contained and handled properly and accordingly and baking soda needs to be aluminum free for internal use. This is not a food container. Variously called sodium bicarbonate, baking soda, or simply 'bicarb', it's good to have a small tub of this in your travel bag. On holiday, exposure to chemicals such as the chlorine in the swimming pool can irritate the area where urine leaves the body (the urethra) and can trigger cystitis in women. Essentially, this is inflammation of the bladder and can lead to a burning sensation when you pass urine. There are other factors that can make it a common holiday ailment: heat and alcohol can dehydrate the body, making the bladder more prone to inflammation; `holding on' when it's inconvenient to go to the toilet, or facilities are unavailable, can also contribute. Bicarb is alkaline, so drinking half a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda stirred into a glass of water several times a day helps as it makes urine less acidic and less likely to cause stinging. It won't reduce the inflammation in the bladder but it will reduce the pain while the inflammation goes down. For any medical issues seek medical advice.
For no shampoo and conditioner to cleanse my hair I use no shampoo mix at all, since I make my own shampoo and conditioner. For shampoo I mix water+baking soda, half and half, cold boiled water AND water+organic apple cider, half and half, cold boiled water for conditioner. I do not mix in advance but mix just before jumping in shower. Need to keep it out of eyes completely. It takes few uses for hair to get used to it but the results are amazing. Now that process takes time and effort. For less effort, I mix 2 part organic castor oil, 2 part organic apple cider vinegar and 6 part shampoo. No conditioner, no more of anything other than the mix and sometimes I even add some EVOO or Wheat Germ Oil which is the highest in vitamin E. The effects are so immediate that after applying the mix I feel the effects on my hair immediately in the shower. I insure to mix a little at a time and always rinse hair with coldest water possible since it adds volume unlike warm water which destroys volume, but shampoo it with warm water. Tweak the mix according to the type, color and length of the hair but always insure to keep the mix away from eyes and scrub the mix on the scalp for the benefits of castor, apple cider on scalp and removal of any residue on hair. I do not shampoo my hair every single day since it damages hair and the natural oil of the hair. Ricinoleic acid in castor oil helps to protect hair and stimulates circulation of nutrient rich blood to scalp. Dry scalp can lead to dandruff but castor oils omega-9 fatty acids can help. Can apply the oil on the whole scalp for few minutes or before washing it off completely with apple cider vinegar.", "label": 1}

It is a nice length on a 24 inch chain and comes with 6 washable pads. The chain itself is Hypo-allergenic and the pendant itself is a Jasmine Flower.
Do you know the benefits of Aromatherapy? Essential oil aromas stimulate the part of the brain that affects emotion, Inhaling essential oils can help you attain a pleasurable emotional balance. A balanced emotional state in turn can have a therapeutic effect on physical problems.
Wearing an oil diffuser locket will allow you to use direct inhalation which in turn gives you immediate relief in most cases. There are so many scents and each scent has a purpose. I have several scents for various reasons. I have peppermint to help with upset stomach. I have an ongoing problem with acid. It is also good for relieving headaches, joint pains, toothaches, and repel mosquitoes. So if you are out on your patio and the mosquitoes are thick, just put some Peppermint on one of your felt tabs and wear around your neck.
I sniff my locket and it calms my stomach.
I have eucalyptus to help with sinus and headaches. This is really good as I get almost instant relief.
Lavender will benefit you in keeping you calm. Having a stressful day at work or with the kids, 1-2 drops of a good Lavender Oil and you will keep calm and have a good day.
I could go on and on as there are so many essential oils. They are out there to help you with balancing, energizing, meditation, passion, purifying, relaxing, headaches, stress, digestive and stomach issues, sinus and colds, body aches and this is just to name a few.
It is also important that you do your research and purchase only 100% pure essential oils. Some of the oils that are not 100% are a waste of money and for me caused huge headaches.
In my first picture I am just showing you how pretty the locket itself is. The second picture shows you how the locket opens and you just slip the felt pad in your locket. The last picture shows you the various felt pads you can interchange with. Maybe you want to change your pad based on color or maybe you are like me and color code your pad to your essential oil. I have one pad for each of my different oils. The felt pads are easy to clean though. You just rinse them warm water and let them air dry.
I truly do like my locket. It is a nice length, looks good. It comes with 7 pads. It does not come with any essential oils, but you can buy them anywhere. I bough some of mine from Amazon and others from my local whole foods market. I would suggest you not invest a bunch of money into the essential oils till you find a brand you really like. Oils can be as cheap as $1.00 and some bottles are over $50.00. The higher the price does not make them the better one. I spent $4.95-$19.95 for my oils and have been pleased with them
I did receive my locket at a discounted rate for my unbiased, truthful and factual review. I felt this locket deserved a 5 star for numerous reasons.
#1 - The cost of the locket is reasonable. Some lockets are hundreds of dollars, and that is just not in my budget.
#2. The quality of the locket
#3. The looks - it looks amazing and I like the longer chain
I have a girlfriend who really likes essential oils, but she does not have a necklace. I like this product so much that I am going to purchase her one for her birthday. It is priced reasonably and if you have Prime it will be here within 2 days.
If you felt my review was helpful to you please click yes. I know I rely on good customer reviews and hope you found mine to be helpful to you.", "label": 1}

The label also states this is non-GMO!
Next, you have to use it to see what it's like, right? I normally go through a process with whole food powders: open, smell, and see if I think it's going to have to be chugged down quick! So, I smelled this Camu Camu powder and I really had to sniff it to get any noticeable odor and I can't describe it except to say, it isn't unpleasant. But then, I got to thinking with all that Vitamin C in it, this stuff is going to be really sour, as I'm thinking what plain Vitamin C powder is like (usually quite sour)! I placed one teaspoon of Camu Camu powder in a glass, added pure water and stirred. No clumping! This is great! No residue on the spoon from the powder (even better)! No noticeable odor! I took a sip...no bad taste! A very slight tartness, but I honestly couldn't taste much flavor either, but I might have had more water in there per teaspoon that made it watered down quite a bit for taste. It didn't leave residue in the glass so I knew I'd gotten the product in me instead of it stuck to a glass and washing it down the drain. There was no grittiness, so it mixed well. I have no negatives to report, only positives. If you happen to be a regular smoothie drinker or yogurt eater, I think you
could put a teaspoon of this in those and probably wouldn't notice it except for the added color it might display.
I can't tell you this did something terrific for my body in the short time I've used it because these things take time to notice, but, you know that. I've done my homework on Camu Camu. It's a great product loaded with nutrients. If you'll do a bit of research, I expect you'll be happy with what you read. This is an amazing berry, full of nutrients. I've read ounce for ounce, it has 50 times more Vitamin C than an orange and of course most of us know Vitamin C helps our bodies as an antioxidant and this is so much better for us since it is from a whole food source as opposed to manufactured Vitamin C. Plus, Camu Camu is loaded with other vitamins, amino acids, bioflavonoids, minerals and even beta carotene. I've read it's good for the eyes, helps the immune system, supports the circulatory system, helps the mental and nervous systems, detoxifies the liver, fights colds, helps heal viruses. Now, think of all the illnesses that fit into those categories and you have a product that is worth taking daily in order to build up those systems. Just remember, it takes consistently using a product over a period of time to see and feel a difference. Yes, these are berries ground into powder, but it is like eating a bunch of good berries...you are gaining those nutrients as a whole food complex. If you'll look into it, you'll find it's helpful for the skin and has many other uses and benefits not mentioned. So my conclusion is, it's a great product worth consuming every day to see what it will do for me. I received this product at a discount in exchange for an honest review and I'm glad to have had the opportunity to try it and to know this is a good brand, easy to drink and good for me.", "label": 1}

Saw palmetto is an extract derived from the deep purple berries of the saw palmetto fan palm (Serenoa repens), a plant indigenous to the coastal regions of the southern United States and southern California.
Health benefits
Saw palmetto is a remarkable herb for both men and women and is used by natural health practitioners to treat a variety of ailments such as testicular inflammation, urinary tract inflammation, coughs and respiratory congestion. It is also used to strengthen the thyroid gland, balance the metabolism, stimulate appetite and aid digestion. This wonderful herb is becoming famous for its uses in hair restoration, prostate health, sexual vigour, breast enhancement and as a nutritive tonic.
Saw palmetto berry also tones the urethra and it may be used to uphold the healthy function of the thyroid gland and urinary system.
Historical use
In the United States, its medicinal uses were first documented in 1879 by Dr. J.B. Read, a physician in Savannah, Georgia, who published a paper on the medicinal benefits of the herb in the April 1879 issue of American Journal of Pharmacy. He found the herb useful in treating a wide range of conditions. He wrote,"By its peculiar soothing power on the mucous membrane it induces sleep, relieves the most troublesome coughs, promotes expectoration, improves digestion and increases fat, flesh and strength. Its sedative and diuretic properties are remarkable".
Benign Prostate Hyperplasia
There is much scientific documentation outlining the effectiveness of the herb in treating irritable bladder and urinary problems in men with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), an enlargement of the prostate gland. BPH results in a swelling of the prostate gland that obstructs the urethra. This causes painful urination, reduced urine flow, difficulty starting or stopping the flow, dribbling after urination and more frequent nighttime urination. In addition to causing pain and embarrassment, BPH can lead to serious kidney problems if undiagnosed and left untreated. It is a common problem in men over the age of 40. Estimates are that 50-60% of all men will develop BPH in their lifetimes.
Saw palmetto does not reduce prostate enlargement. Instead, it is thought to work in a variety of ways. First, it inhibits the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). BPH is thought to be caused by an increase in testosterone to DHT. Secondly, saw palmetto is believed to interfere with the production of estrogen and progesterone, hormones associated with DHT production.
Clinical trials
Since the 1960s, extensive clinical studies of saw palmetto have been done in Europe. A review of 24 European trials appeared in the November 1998 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association. The trials involved nearly 3,000 men, some taking saw palmetto, others taking Proscar and a third group taking a placebo.
The men taking saw palmetto had a 28% improvement in urinary tract symptoms, a 24% improvement in peak urine flow and 43% improvement in overall urine flow. The results were nearly comparable to the group taking Proscar and superior to the men taking a placebo.
In a controlled clinical trial with patients with enlarged prostate glands, 50 patients who received saw palmetto (320 mg per day - 4 tablets taken in two separate doses with meals) were compared to 44 patients receiving placebo. Patients treated with saw palmetto urinated less frequently, produced a better flow rate and amount of urine and had less pain and discomfort in urinating than control subjects. There were actually fewer adverse side effects in patients receiving saw palmetto than in
Presently, saw palmetto is being evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of BPH. If approved, it would become the first herbal product to be licensed by the agency as a treatment for a specific condition.I received this product in exchange Of my honest review.", "label": 1}

BAD: Wi-fi range is poor (despite being 2.4 Ghz [and only 2.4Ghz]). It\u2019s slow to do the BF % measurement. I\u2019ve found the BF measurements to have very low test-retest reliability.
INEXCUSABLE: The setup experience on this scale is horrible and I cannot see any way for a typical consumer to do the setup OR operate the scale in a secure fashion. The UX is just bad project management the security issues are the deal breaker that prompted the rating.
User \u201cmrgunn\u201d in the FitBit forum thread titled \u201cAria Wifi ERR solution for new routers which support 802.11ac\u201d gave an amusing tongue-in-cheek flavor for what is required to setup this scale up in the least insecure way possible. Before you buy please read \u201cmrgunn\u2019s\u201d post and be sure you are prepared for a 50 step setup adventure.
Even once you are done with \u201cmrgunn\u201d you are worse off: the low-complexity key that this scale requires to connect is no way to operate a network. The biggest problem isn\u2019t the UX, it isn\u2019t even that your best case is less secure, it\u2019s that the path to worse off is so complex that many people won\u2019t get to minimally worse off and will instead operate dramatically less secure networks out of a frustrated desire to have their glossy new scale working and limited understanding of the risk. Someone will be victimized needlessly as a result of this \u201cwide open is all that works\u201d. For me this was a fun weekend project and chance to feel pleased about having RJ45 in the bathroom*. For most people this is an early adoption laserdisc moment. For someone this could be the entry point to a crippling identity theft.
UNTESTED: I don\u2019t need multi-user. I could imagine this being a nice feature feature and a trivial problem (e.x. a highly diamoprhic couple) to solve. I could also imagine it being nearly intractable (say men\u2019s lightweight rowers living together). Given the security and the BF issues I question their ability to execute in the face of complexity.
FYI: I read a bit about this scale before buying it and was surprised to open it and find a big warning label about pacemakers, kids, and pregnancy on the scale. Neither is relevant to me so I assumed I\u2019d just glossed over them. Quick re-read suggest they are hiding in the fine print and Googling yields inconsistent information on fitbit.com. This is poor form. The safety info should be front and center and the evidence / risk should go with it (in this case I\u2019d wager this is a lack of evidence not evidence of harm).
TL;DR \u2013 nice \u201cweigh you and save it\u201d function, horrible consumer protection / security practice. Why the extra star? It can be used safely. It\u2019s just a lot of work.
*HOW TO USE: Knowing what I know now setup for this could actually be easy\u2026
- You\u2019ll have to have a dedicated ultra low power 2.4ghz AP for the scale (and only the scale) to connect to. I used an old router running dd-wrt and turned transmit power down until the signal didn\u2019t escape my bathroom. The limit case value here is reduced interference with my real signal but piratically speaking this does really change the physicality of exploitation.
- Granting that \u201cjust whisper rarely\u201d isn\u2019t security you\u2019ll have to treat this AP\u2019s back-haul as insecure. For me it was easiest just to put the bathroom network drop\u2019s port (you\u2019ve got gigabit to your toilet right?) on an isolated vlan for the reduced power AP\u2019s back-haul.
- Now that you\u2019ve planned to mitigate the harm of this scale you can setup a burner Linux VM and use it to do the wi-fi dance with your custom lower power minimal security AP in your walk in Faraday cage from a burner VM.", "label": 0}

But then I discovered some long-standing feud over which company sells the REAL original ones, because there's 2 companies, of course, with \"yay this is IT!\" and \" no this is NOT it! \" reviews on both sides - and my brain went into freeze mode.
But Amazon is always kind enough to supply you with any number of alternatives to whatever it is you are looking at, whether or not they're even remotely in the same category. That's how I came upon this tachyon plate. It sounded interesting so I decided to try it out. (And there's no competing sellers claiming the other is a fake)
This tachyon plate isn't really a \"plate\", per se, as one might think of a plate: dinner plate; electrical plate; license plate. This is 4\" square and 1 /8\" thick, and has the appearance of thick cardboard or the like, with some type of fibrous -looking coating on one side that has a texture similar to woven grass wallpaper, at least in my estimation. (When I am able to take a photo, I will upload to this review). It does not appear to be metallic, and feels as though it would bend, crease, or even break if attempted. (The above is just my attempt at describing its appearance and has no bearing on its actual composition, of which I have no clue.)
Generally, I am a person who is able to feel energy from things that put out energy, such as crystals, for example. But sometimes I get in a slump (or whatever it is) and can't feel that energy like I usually do. Yep, slump time - can't feel a thing right now. So if this thing's cranking it out, I'm not picking up on it.
So \"feeling\" an energy emanating from it is not working right now. How about results of said energy? Well, I've had mixed results so far, hence the 4 stars. I've been setting my
1 gallon jugs of water on top of it for at least 15 minutes or more. The water seems to taste fresher, but I'm already starting out with Water Mill RO ultra filtered water rather than trying to improve on the disgusting chloramine-laden tap water that's available here. But still - there seems to be a subtle taste difference.
Next topic: pain relief. I've been experiencing some pain and swelling in both my legs recently. So one night I tucked this tachyon plate under my left leg when I went to bed. The next day, that leg felt better all day. That night, I tried it on the right leg. The next day - no difference at all in my right leg. Tried twice on right leg with same outcome.
I have also been experiencing screamer pain in the sole of my left foot that can come out of the blue when I'm not even standing on it, but that can hurt for hours when I'm on my feet. So I tried resting my left foot on the tachyon plate, painful part on the plate, for about 15 minutes. The pain went away and didn't come back all day. The next time it hurt I did the same, but the pain did not go away. Like I said: mixed results.
I've always been a truly open minded person, willing to give the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise. And I have some years of experience with various things that are not necessarily main-stream, as I am well aware that there are many many more valuable things out there than can be accounted for in common circumstances. So I'm not done experimenting with this thing yet, might even go so far as to re-read the instruction leaflet, maybe do a web search even. I've only had it since July 15 so I still have time to return it if that's what it comes to. Naturally I'd prefer it if this tachyon plate performed as promised - partly because I really dislike having to drive to the UPS store to return things, but mostly because this pain stuff really sucks and I'm beyond ready to be done with it!
Two more weeks to experiment with this - better get moving...", "label": 1}

Personally, I decided to get the Naturals because I work out 2-3 times a day and always drink a whey shake after... ingesting that much artificial sweetener every day will probably add up to cancer one day. The Natural Nectars use stevia, which has actually been shown to have positive effects such as regulating blood sugar.
Flavors:
Apple Ecstasy - 4/5 - I normally like apple-flavored anything, but this did not impress me. It's a little too sour. However, there was no aftertaste or anything, so I'm sure someone out there might like it.
Caribbean Cooler - 5/5 - I must say I was impressed with how the coconut aspect of this coconut/pineapple flavor concoction really captures the taste and texture of real coconut milk. Would I want to drink 2 lbs. of this stuff? Eh, IDK. But if you like coconut...
Crystal Sky - 2/5 - Tastes like ground up Sweet-Tarts mixed with water. It's a very, very synthetic berry taste of some sort. It has so much blue coloring that my poo was bright green!
Fuzzy Navel - 5/5 - This is the flavor that made Nectar famous. It's a nice blend of peach and orange and tastes like a glass of juice; I could not detect any protein, and the aftertaste was mostly just peach flavor.
Lemon Tea - 3/5 - I really wanted to dislike this one, and although I'm still not a fan of iced tea protein (lol), I can see why some people would like it. I can clearly detect an underlying protein taste, but ignore that and it's just like Arizona iced tea.
Roadside Lemonade - 1/5 - This one is nasty, I could barely get it down! The obvious protein taste gives it a gelatin-like quality. So, yeah, (synthetic) lemon-flavored liquid Jell-O is how I'd describe it.
Strawberry Kiwi - 3/5 As soon as I smelled it, I knew this was going to be another Jell-O flavor. Honestly it's not that bad (no kind of protein taste or aftertaste), but most of us have had strawberry kiwi Jell-O, and so drinking it in liquid form is rather unappealing.
Twisted Cherry - 2/5 - Extremely synthetic cherry Kool-Aid flavor (just like children's medicine) with way too much red color.
Strawberry Mousse - 5/5 - Tastes like the pink Yoohoo or strawberry milk. Slight bitter aftertaste, but not a big deal.
Vanilla Bean Torte - 5/5 - I normally don't like vanilla, but this is just like frosting (yummmm)! There is a slight \"metallic\" aftertaste (Acesulfame K can do that), but not as bad as the weird Chocolate Truffle aftertaste.
Chocolate Truffle - 4/5 - It's like watered down chocolate mousse. I'm not a big chocolate fan, but someone who likes that kind of thing would probably enjoy this flavor. I took a point off because it had a strange aftertaste.
Cappuccino - 5/5 - Personally, it's way too sweet for me (but I really don't have much of a sweet tooth). I like my coffee black, but someone who is into those Starbucks shakes would probably like this. It actually reminds me a lot of a mocha flavored chocolate bar Lindt sells called \"Milk Mocha.\"
Natural Peach - 5/5 - The best of the \"naturals.\" It's kind of orangey-peachy, but in a more toned down way than Fuzzy Navel.
Natural Orange - 3/5 - My least favorite of the \"naturals,\" but it's okay.
Natural Fruit Punch - 5/5 - Didn't like this one at 1st, but it grew on me. It's not like a Hawaiian Punch kind of taste, but more like fruit-flavored Tums.", "label": 1}

This Citruline Malate Powder from Wholesale Health Connection I would rate at the top of the list, and would highly recommend it. It works just as it should, in the proper dosing. I suspect that if you are looking at the reviews of this product, you already know what it is supposed to do; but, I will give a quick overview.
Vasodilation: This product does this in a visible manner, your veins will literally pop out. This is also necessary to treat high blood pressure, something I've dealt with for 17 years. I attempt to manage it with diet and exercise, but it's never as good as it should. It's not uncommon for me to be in the 135/80 to 155/90 range. After starting a regimen of this product, my latest reading was 113/71. I haven't had good blood pressure like that for many many years. This to me is a direct indication that this product does in fact do what it says. Vasodilation also helps get blood out to your muscles, which helps with recovery and sports enhancement.
Sport performance: I have spent the past 10 or so years running and doing various physically demanding events, and am always looking for that supplement that will assist in pushing further than before. Although I've only been taking this product for about a week, I've seen a drastic uptick in my endurance and level of ability to exert myself. 3 years ago I had knee surgery, and it's only recently that I've been able to run longer than 3 miles at a time without pain. I've found another product that has corrected that, and this product does not address the pain. But, what this product does do is allow me to run longer without getting tired. The first run after starting this product, I ran 6 miles, followed by 7 miles a few days later, and this past weekend I ran 11 miles. Endurance wise, I felt as though I could have continued to run and likely could have done a half marathon run that day. I've never been one to run that distance, usually stopping after 7 miles, but I felt THAT GOOD.
Recovery: After that long 11 mile run, I should have felt terrible all day, and likely would have been in pain (body aches, etc..) and had cramping for a number of days afterward. This did not happen, infact I felt great about an hour after the run and for the rest of the day. I had some slight soreness, but nothing that I would have expected. I believe this product helped with my speedy recovery.
Full disclosure, I started this product at the same time that I started L-Arginine Alpha-Ketoclutarate (AAKG) (by the same company) but I have taken the AAKG before and never had this sort of experience. Adding the Citrulline Malate appears to have made all the difference, and I will likely continue to take both products together. Dosing per the package suggests 1tsp, and I've been taking this 1 to 3 times per day depending on the level of physical exertion that day. I will likely continue to take one dose in the morning, and one in the evening, along with one AAKG in the morning.
Pros: This product works. If you are considering getting it, GET IT. The price is great! The powder is clean and doesn't clump. When you mix it with your favorite liquid, it dissolves down as it should.
Cons: The only thing that I could come up with, is the flavor. There is nothing added to this, so it's just the flavor of the supplement. I add it to Advocare Spark or MiO Sport Water, and it's drinkable. I did attempt to drink it by itself in water, and although I didn't gag, I wouldn't want to do this all the time; It tastes much like Alkaseltzer.", "label": 1}

I've always had annoying little dots on my skin, particularly legs and upper arms (I've often heard of it called "chicken skin"). I've been told it's ingrown hairs, body acne, etc. (and I believed each of these theories at one point or another). However, I had this even when I was a kid and didn't have any acne at all, so it just wasn't adding up. And regardless of what you call it, it's still frustrating/embarrassing when someone notices it, or worse, points it out when you're wearing a sleeveless top. I'd tried a few things in the past such as body scrubs and oils, and those exfoliating gloves. None of them had any considerable effect, which is why (up to this point) I'd just resigned myself to the fact that I would always have this "ingrown hair"/chicken skin appearance. Until recently, when someone pointed out to me that I had bumps on my arms (like I wasn't aware) and I decided I'd had enough.
Completely fed up, I scoured the internet. Surprisingly, unlike previous searches that had left me frustrated and without an answer, I discovered rather quickly that my skin looks suspiciously similar to a condition called Keratosis Pilaris. It can look like ingrown hairs or little bumps (hence the "chicken skin" comparison...if you have this then you know what I mean). In the past, I've used washcloths, exfoliator gloves, and those round, brightly-colored bath poufs, but none of them really did anything other than get me clean (which, to be fair, is all I had previously expected from any kind of bath sponge).
Folks. When I say this left me squeaky clean, I mean I probably would have HEARD the squeaking if I'd turned off the water to listen for it. I used it with the Nubian Heritage Coconut and Papaya bar soap, which is good in its own right, but I don't think the soap was the magic bullet here. I say that because at one point I was scrubbing and just kept going for a couple seconds without realizing that I needed to lather up my sponge again, and it had STILL left behind that squeaky clean feeling even without any soap in it! I followed it up with Organic Fiji Sugar Polish and my skin was GLOWING. I've never seen my skin like this. EVER.
I NEVER write reviews, but with this product I absolutely had to (as I will for the two other products that really transformed my skin, Organic Fiji sugar scrub and AmLactin 12% Moisturizing Lotion). I wish I had taken a "before" picture so I could show the drastic difference side-by-side with the "after." It's ridiculous that I've been frustrated with this issue all my life...and then this very ordinary-looking sponge literally made a difference with ONE SHOWER. After about 3 or 4 showers, my skin was even smoother. I've been using it for about a week and a half, not wanting to write a review right away because it just kept getting better and better and I wanted to see how much it would improve. A week and a half later, and I STILL catch myself from time to time just rubbing my skin in disbelief and feeling the smoothness. Again, the sugar scrub and Amlactin lotion also have worked wonders for my skin, so I can't say how much of the improvement is due to the sponge alone vs. the combination...but I have zero intention of discontinuing any of them just to find out. Preemptive apology if you go to purchase these and they're out of stock after I've bought my lifetime supply. :)", "label": 1}

For me, my self-esteem is directly tied to Cellbone's Prep Skin Refresher!!!! I won't ever stop using this product.
A little about me/my skin: I am a 42-yr old Asian-Pacific Islander and have medium-tone skin, which essentially translates into severe post-acne hyperpigmentation anytime I break out. I never broke out as a teenager so it was so strange to me that I started breaking out badly the last 2 years. (I attribute most of it to job-stress so I really figured there was nothing I could do about my poor complexion). I recently saw a photo of myself from 2009 where I had no makeup on, and I pratically cried. I had forgotten that I had GREAT skin up until recently. I had gotten into this vicious cycle as of late: wearing concealer & makeup to hide the dark hyperpigmentation, which I'm certain resulted in more breakouts = more hyperpigmentation. It was just awful!! I was at my wit's end. I couldn't get my skin under control even with prescription drugs.
In January, I began both salycylic & glycolic acid treatments, and those helped the hyperpigmentation somewhat. I continued to breakout a bit and was willing to suffer through the breakouts in hopes that things were merely getting worse before they would get better. In March, I took a nearly 3-week long trip to hot, dusty Tanzania (climbed Mount Kilimanjaro, went on safari, & then chilled out on Zanzibar). Well, I was without the comforts of home for the majority of that trip so I used pre-moistened face wipes & hot water (when it was available) to cleanse my face & always followed up with the Prep Skin Refresher. Translation: I was hot,sweaty, & dusty/dirty the majority of the time. My breakouts stopped \"dead in their tracks,\" and my hyperpigmentation appeared to improve. Upon my return from my trip, I continued with the Prep Skin Refresher post-face wash and have only had 2 glycolic treatments since I returned.
I can't believe how my complexion is improving!! I'm actually not scared to look in the mirror now, and I'm no longer morbidly depressed about how I look without makeup. I know it's definitely this Cellbone product that has attributed to my vast improvement. (While the glycolic acid treatment does help, I'm only doing that every other week). I'm using the Prep Skin Refresher daily, usually in the a.m. & in the p.m. I haven't changed any other face, body, or hair products--so I know it wasn't an allergy. Again, I was using this product religiously when I was camping on Mount Kilimanjaro (hey, I didn't shower for 6 nights, but I still didn't break out!!!!)
I also have before & \"so far\" pictures, so I have an objective gauge as to my improvement. I would like my skin to get a bit better before I'm brave enough to post the pictures for you all, but stay tuned. I'll update this review when I get up enough nerve to add the pictures. I don't know what's in this stuff, but I SWEAR it's worth trying if you have acne/hyperpigmentation. I've been using this since the beginning of March, and I still have half the bottle left.
I hope others who are \"suffering in silence\" will give this a shot. I think it's a small price to pay to help your self-esteem! Also, Cellbone threw in 2 other free samples that I haven't tried yet (I didn't want to \"waste\" the product on my poor skin, but I'll try them this weekend). Cellbone: you have a customer for life.

This is an outstanding product that solves an otherwise insoluble problem--squeaky hardwood floors. The white oak hardwood floors upstairs in my 1936 house were so squeaky that we could not go anywhere upstairs unaccompanied by the sound of groaning and squeaking floors. Several contractors told me there was nothing that could be done to correct the condition--which turned out to be wrong, thanks to this product.

I then watched the process as demonstrated by Patrick O'Berry on YouTube ([...]) and I saw right away what I was doing wrong. I then proceeded to drive about 400 screws into 1500 square feet of hardwood floors using O'Berry's method and solved my squeaking floor problems completely. I could barely believe it: I went from having a major problem to having no squeaking problem at all.
One essential step is to place the screws where the hardwood grain will conceal the screw holes. Oak grain has plenty of places where the screw holes will not be visible. Other essential practices--all demonstrated in the O'Berry You Tube clip--include the step of drilling test holes to make sure you are hitting the joists before you start trying to screw the hardwood down. The test hole is necessary because a stud finder, even a very sophisticated one, won't reliably locate a joist through 1-1/2 inches of hardwood and subfloor and the random pattern of nails that pin the hardwood to the subfloor. Also notice carefully the differences between the at-the-joist and between-the-joist screws and the respective stand-off tools (O'Berry calls these tools \"jigs\" or \"fixtures\") used for each type of screw--they are superficially similar but each tool is designed to snap the screws at different locations. These differences are mentioned in the O'Berry You Tube demonstration. Unfortunately, Amazon at present supplies only a carpet kit and one of the two necessary types of standoff fixtures for hardwood floors (for the at-the-joist screws), so you will need to purchase the between-the-joist standoff jig from a specialty online supplier of squeaky floor tools.
I got equally good results eliminating squeaks in carpeted floors laid over 3/4 inch plywood subflooring. Again, Patrick O'Berry's You Tube demonstration makes the process very clear. ([...]). The carpet standoff jig looks like a three-legged crab, but it uses the same kind between-the-joist screws as are used for hardwood floors. Also, in this case, a stud finder should be able to locate the joists because there is only one nailing pattern and one layer of wood, if that's what you have. Carpeting over hardwoods, however, would need to be screwed down using the hardwood method.
While getting the hang of the process I also called O'Berry Enterprises with some questions, and Patrick O'Berry answered the phone. So good help is available if you need it.", "label": 1}

I have extremely sensitive hearing and tend to get uncomfortable adrenalin surges when loud and sudden noises occur. I also like to attend concerts from music types from orchestral traditional music to jazz/fusion to all-out metal rock music.
In the work I do (IT, office-based business), I am called to conference rooms for meetings several times a day. Inevitably, someone on the conference speaks mouse-quiet and someone has the microphone permanently embedded in their teeth so that not only are they louder than anyone, we get treated to breathing and mouth noises for an hour at a time. Also, inevitably, the person running the call has the speaker/speakerphone turned up to its maximum volume. With some folks, this isn\u2019t a bad thing. With most, however, it\u2019s really grueling to have remote callers screaming at you at 125 or more decibels for long periods of time. This is the PERFECT time for the DownBeats ear plugs. They fit my small-medium ear channels, and they aren\u2019t grossly obvious to my colleagues. This is a life saver for me: it really is excruciating when a caller is screaming at me through low-fi speakers in the room for what seems like a lifetime.
Some have asked about the color of the stems. My family has four sets of DownBeats, and all of them have clear stems. It might be a manufacturing batch or maybe a supply difference that causes some to have white stems. None of ours have white stems and hide very nicely in our ear channels.
When I go to concerts, the DownBeats aren\u2019t quite as attenuating as I would like. They work great and are very unobtrusive to my ears (as in, how they feel in my ears) and are unobtrusive to the sound quality, save a little shaving off of the high trebles and a bit of the mids. For me (this is a personal thing), I would like for them to attenuate a little more when I am at a loud concert. When the sound technician is attempting to produce the current show as if she/he was engineering The Who in the 70s, I find the DownBeats lacking a bit. At a recent Pat Metheny concert, I couldn\u2019t have been happier: the Carolina Theater in Durham had the balance, EQ, and volume just right (and besides, Path Metheny and his folks understand a little \u2013used thing called dynamics).
To give you an idea of the flexibility of the fit of DownBeats, I can use an Apple ear phone reference to help you: my ears channels are small to medium. Apple EarPods and ear buds don\u2019t fit in my ear. I\u2019ve never been able to use them because they don\u2019t even slightly fit in my ear channels. My wife, on the other hand, has much larger ear channels and comfortably wears both Apple EarPods and the older ear buds. Here\u2019s the punchline: The DownBeats fit both our ear channels just fine. They are flexible and soft enough to really do the trick.
One more thing about comfort\u2026 They\u2019re very shallow. I have deep ear pockets and my wife has shallow ear pockets. In my case, I have learned how to grip the DownBeats by their stems and push them in my ear channels in just the right way. It takes a moment to get them settled in or get them out, but in neither case is it hard to do. In addition, I can wear them for a few hours at a time without having ear-compression issues or ear-contact sounds that are irritating. With my wife, the DownBeats are really easy to pop in or out, as her smaller fingers and larger ear pockets give her more room to get the DownBeats just right.
Overall, I\u2019m very happy with them. We have a couple of pairs in her purse and one on my keychain. I also have a set at work I keep on my badge for ready use for those lovely multi-continent dial-in meetings.
The DownBeats beat the pink foam ear inserts for me at concerts because DownBeats don't kill the best parts of the sound spectrum - although pink foam inserts to make loud concerts quieter.", "label": 1}

Like many of you who are reading this, I've used rotary blade cordless shavers for decades--mostly Norelco. These always feature three floating heads. I've always thought there must be something magical about three heads because that's what everyone presents :-)
Well, here we have six heads. Six heads must be better than three, right? I have to say that I wasn't convinced. I figured there must be a reason that the big names don't use a larger number of heads. And after trying this shaver, I think I know the answer.
The answer isn't the quality of the shave. In fact, I was impressed at how well this shaver cleared the stubble on my face at the end of the day. It was comfortable and managed to navigate the nooks and crannies of my face and neck as well as my trusty Norelco. But--and this is huge--the ergonomics of the shaving heads leave something to desire. First off, there's very little reservoir under the cutting heads for shaved hair (see photos). This means you'll need/want to wash the head (it's water immersible) after each shave. Second, the middle head of the five doesn't pop up. To remove it, you have to twist it off. It's a bit of a pain--and there's even less room under this head for hair than any of the others.
The third issue I have with the cutting heads--and this is huge--is that there's no obvious way to replace them without simply replacing the entire shaving head assembly. This can get costly--especially since my experience with these types of shavers is that the heads start to get dull reasonably quickly.
In the kit you get:
** Six head cordless shaver with LCD readout of charge remaining and reminders to clean heads and when power is low.
** IPX5 water-resistant
** Can be put in soft lockout mode by holding power button--good for travel
** Nose hair trimmer attachment
** Hair clipper attachment
** Two face cleaning attachments
** Protective packing guard for the shaver assembly
** Charging cable (requires USB-A power source)
The non-shaver attachments are a mixed bag. On the plus side, the nose hair trimmer works very well. This is in contrast with the nose hair trimmers that come with clippers, which are worthless. The nose hair clipper here works as well as the dedicated nose hair clippers I've used.On the minus side, the hair clipper is mediocre--it operates at a low speed and struggles with any amount of hair. It's not very useful. The face cleaner attachments are probably OK, but I can't imagine using them.
On the whole, I'd consider this a decent little kit useful for shaving your face and for nose hair removal. The remaining attachments are, in my opinion, not very useful. While it does a good job of shaving out of the box, I worry that the shaving heads will get dull over time, and there's no clear replacement path.
Pros:
** 6 head shaver does a good job on the face
** Nose hair clipper works well
** Li-Ion battery: 700mAh, 2 hours charge for 90 minutes run time
** IPX5 water-resistant
Cons:
** Hair trimmer doesn't work well
** Face cleaning attachments not very significant
** Shaver doesn't provide much room for hair and will need to be cleaned after each shave
** Middle head of shaver attachment difficult to remove for cleaning
** Sixth (central) head in shaver assembly does not float like outer heads
** Charge port on shaver is not USB-C
Note that this same shaver is under various names on Amazon. Shop around for price.
The same manufacturer that makes this kit also makes shavers with 5 and 7 heads. (And the attachments, including the shaver heads, for the two models are interchangeable). I did not find that adding a sixth head (as here) added much value in terms of how quickly or well the shaver was able to shave my face. And, since the motor in the 5,6,7 head models appears to be similar, a sixth head means a bit less power to each of the heads.", "label": 1}

In the last 3 years, I've gone through more brands and models than I care to think about. Now I've tried the Plantronics Discovery 925, and tell you with no hesitation that it is in the top two of those I have used.
The Plantronics Discovery 925 is more an earpiece than a headset, with an earbud that fits inside the ear with surprising comfort, rather than an earloop that hangs over the ear. This means that it is much more comfortable to wear with eyeglasses and/or sunglasses. Indeed it is so comfortable that I sometimes forget I am wearing it.
Pairing the device is a snap, and while my old Jabra headset frequently lost its pairing (weekly at least), the Plantronics Discovery 925 has not yet.
The sound quality is tremendous. Audio is crystal clear from both my side and on the caller's side, if my friends and family are to be believed. LOL
Plantronics touts this headset as having great noise reduction technology, and I will say that it is better in the noise reduction arena than all but one of the headsets I've tried in the past. The only headset I have personally tried that surpasses the Plantronics Discovery 925 in noise reduction is the Jawbone headset.
What I really love about the Discovery 925 is the charging options. This headset comes with both an AC charger cable and a USB charger cable. Not only that, it comes with a compact charging case. You can charge the headset either in the case or directly, using the same cables for each. The beauty of the case is that it charges alongside the headset when you have it plugged in to electrical power. Then when your headset's battery dies, you simply put the headset in the case to recharge on the go - WITHOUT connecting either the case or the headset to electrical current. I've purposely let the headset's charge completely drain and charged it with the case, and found it worked admirably. And to top it all off, the Plantronics Discovery 925 charges fully in just a couple of hours, whether via electrical current or the portable charge case.
Now here is where I prove what a woman I can be. The last quality I want to point out is purely cosmetic - its appearance. This is by far the most attractive headset I've ever seen. It's design almost looks like a cufflink or tie clip. It is sleek, innocuous, and comes in three different colors: black, gold, and pink. Personally, I like the more unobtrusive black model myself, but for those who want a little bit livelier hue, the other options work too. Yeah, I know, the appearance is a pretty frivolous virtue, but as often as we wear these things nowadays, it is nice to find a Bluetooth headset that doesn't have to trade form for function.
For the best in noise reduction, Jawbone's Bluetooth headset is the overall winner, but Plantronics Discovery 925 runs a very close second in this category. In all other categories, I would choose Plantronics as the number one headset.

1) Made in Japan.
2) Pre-charged & ready to use.
3) Rechargeable 1500X (X = times / cycles). I'm happy with just 500X.
The not so good:
1) 2000 mAh. That's not enough juice to provide stamina for power hungry devices.
Background:
For over 4yrs now, I've been using the 'made in Japan', Low Self Discharge (LSD) AA & AAA rechargeable batteries from Sanyo called Eneloop & Eneloop 1500. I use them with all the remote controls & electronic devices / gadgets that I have. I have over a dozen pairs of the Sanyo Eneloop batteries & I like to keep them organized. I have them all marked / labeled in pairs so that I don't mix the batteries when I'm charging them. The plain white color of the Sanyo Eneloop is a plus point here.
For remote controls, the Eneloops are perfect. A single charge c'd stay for more than a year. No complaints. It's when I use the Eneloops with the Canon PowerShot A590IS [[ASIN:B0011ZCDKS Canon PowerShot A590IS 8MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom]] that I wish that these batteries had a lil' more juice in them. I c'd barely touch an average of 200 shots with a single charge. That's when I gave the Sanyo Eneloop XX a try & I'm impressed with it. The milliampere-hour (mAh), a measurement of the electric charge transferred by a steady current of one Ampere for one hour (check Google for more detailed explanation), in the new Sanyo Eneloop XX has been upped to 2500 mAh. This increase of 500 mAh really shows an improvement in my compact camera's performance. I've already taken over 400 shots with the first charge & I'm still counting. Even the refresh time between shots have reduced a bit.
Conclusion:
Just a few yrs ago, the Sanyo Eneloop (rechargeable 1000X) used to be priced @ USD20 / 4pcs. It's now selling for about USD10 / 4pcs on Amazon & is very good value for money [[ASIN:B000IV2WAW SANYO eneloop 4 Pack AA NiMH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries]]. The newer Sanyo Eneloop 1500 (rechargeable 1500X), with no performance advantage over the original Eneloop, is priced @ about USD15 / 4pcs. I got the Sanyo Eneloop XX (rechargeable 500X) from B&H, NYC @ USD20 / 4pcs [[ASIN:B004DW7S06 Sanyo Eneloop AA NiMH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries - new 2500 mAh --eneloop xx -- 1 pack of 4 batteries - Limited Quantity]].
I'm sure the prices will eventually come down with more competition & with newer models getting released every year. For now, the Sanyo Eneloop XX sh'd only be considered for power hungry devices such as compact cameras & remote controlled toys. For everything else, the original Sanyo Eneloop (rechargeable 1000X) is still a very good purchase & has not run out of juice just yet.
I find 1500X a lil' over exaggerated. Even if I charge a pair of Sanyo Eneloop XXs every week, 500X will last me over 9yrs. I know I'll replace / upgrade these batteries in about 5yrs or so with whatever c'd be the latest & greatest in LSD rechargeable battery technology then. For 2000 mAh LSD rechargeable batteries, I'd stick with the original Sanyo Eneloop (rechargeable 1000X) & save some bucks.
For best results, I'm using the Sanyo Eneloop batteries with La Crosse Technology BC-700 power battery charger [[ASIN:B000RSOV50 La Crosse Technology BC-700 Alpha Power Battery Charger]].", "label": 1}

Over the past seven years, I have used many different types of green laundry detergents. All have cleaned with varying effectiveness but none were ever as good as non-green detergents. I am okay with that. From it, I've learned the importance of using stain treatment and laundry boosters. So, as you can see that I am not oblivious to how these green detergents clean.
In my opinion, Nature's Simply Clean has been one of the worst performing laundry detergents that I've tried. When used as directed, it consistently caked in the dispenser and I was left with the nagging feeling that my clothes were not coming out as clean as they had when I used Planet and Charlie's Soap. Both of those detergents were very good at cleaning my laundry. . .but Charlie's was exceptional for my cloth diapers and towels! Prior to transitioning over to Nature's Simply Clean, I had found a perfect routine and amount of detergent to get all of my clothes \"clean\", smelling fresh and stains about 90% out. The reason why I wanted to give Nature's Simply Clean a try was because I wanted additional fragrance--which Charlie's does not have. I was hoping that it would add something to the faint smell of the 7th Generation Lavender Fabric softener that I've been using (I love for my clean sheets to have a fragrance).
Well, I must say that this detergent was a complete fail in every way that I could have imagined. First, the fragrance was barely noticeable on my laundry when I removed it from the washer. . .and once dried, there was virtually no lingering scent. The thing that got me the most was that my laundry never seemed clean. Stains were rarely removed--maybe slightly faded--and they did not have the crisp feeling to which I have become accustom when using Charlie's Soap. I assumed that this was primarily due to the added oils (i.e, coconut, olive, palm and essential), which Charlie's does not have. On a positive note, I did notice that my laundry had less static (not static-free as stated on the container) compared to when I used Charlie's. Perhaps this was due to those extra ingredients.
In regards to the cleaning capabilities of Nature's Simply Clean, I must say that it has done a VERY poor job of cleaning my laundry. Despite adding it directly to the drum, its effectiveness was still subpar. My whites never appeared to be cleaned. Most of my children's socks remained dirt-stained--unlike when I used Planet and Charlie's. And, food stains. . .WOW! This detergent was a complete fail. If I did not use pretreatment and manipulation, the stains would be consistently left behind. Yesterday while I was preparing to put away my kiddos laundry, I noticed that any food stain that I did not pretreat (and scrub) was left behind. The worst part was when I checked my daughter's leggings and had a solid bit of food (ex. like syrup) still attached! Additionally, the knees were still dirty from her crawling around on them. That alone was beyond unacceptable. Lucky for me though, I had already gotten the memo and ordered a new detergent to try--Savvy Green. It arrived right on time. . .and I rewashed ALL of my kiddos laundry from the week that had been washed with the Nature's Simply Clean. So far, so good! It removed over 90% of the stains that the Nature's Simply Clean left behind. And like the Charlie's Soap, it left them feeling and smelling \"clean.\" Now, only time will tell how well it will work on all of my laundry and if it will supersede Charlie's!
So, based on the addition of fragrance and the inability to clean simple stains, I rate Simply Clean Lavender Vanilla Dream a 2 out 5. Despite the lack of residual scent left post-drying, I decided to give this detergent a 2, instead of a 1, because I love the idea of using essential oils in green detergents for fragrance.", "label": 0}

I used to have great eyelashes when I was in highschool but after having children- and now being 30 years old, my eyelashes were not my best feature. 2 months ago I started using Rapidlash which really helped my lashes grow longer. After seeing the increase in length I started to be more interested in getting a lash lift. After watching several videos on youtube I decided I could do it myself. Disclaimer- I did go to cosmetology school so I already feel comfortable with this type of a product.
This kit includes so many items- everything you could possibly need (well, I did use some q-tips as well) and a lot of pieces that I didn't use too. I recommend doing 1 eye at a time and taking your time to be very careful to not get any solution in your eye.
-I used the largest size of the pink silicone molds and cut them to fit my eyelid.
-I put a little glue on my eyelid and a little glue on the back of the silicone mold. I waited a minute or two for it to get tacky then placed it on my eyelid as close to my lash line as I could and then held it in place for a couple of minutes to make sure it was glued. I had a slight problem with the edges not staying glued down but this didn't negatively affect the perming for me.
-I then put some of the glue on the silicone mold and waited a minute for it to get tacky.
-I then used the metal tweezers to glue my eyelashes onto the mold making sure they were all straight on the mold and fanned out evenly (this is very important as it will be permed the way they are placed onto the mold- so don't rush through the step). I used a little extra glue to make sure all eyelashes were stuck in place.
-I then put on solution A (perming solution) with one of the green "brushes" that came with the kit. Once applied I set my alarm for 11 minutes.
-After 11 minutes I used a damp q-tip to wipe off Solution A, redampening the q-tip with each wipe to get the solution off.
-I then applied solution B (neutralizing solution) in the same manner as solution A was applied- again setting my alarm for another 11 minutes.
-After 11 minutes, I used a new damp q-tip to wipe off solution B.
-I then applied solution C (glue remover) with a q-tip. Once the eyelashes were loosened from the silicone mold I then used the solution to remove the mold from my eyelid. I ended up having a lot of sticky residue that wasn't fun to get off but was totally worth it.
-solution D is supposed to help "restore" your eyelashes- I'm not sure it really does anything...
With all perms you don't want to use any other chemical or cleaner on it for the first 24-48 hours so I would not recommend washing your face directly after. I did get in the shower and they were exposed to the water with no problems.
It has now been 2 weeks since I have done my eyelashes as I have not touched my eyelash curler in those two weeks. My eyelashes have a more natural "c" curl to them instead of a crimped curl that an eyelash curler gives. I'm 100% happy with the eyelashes I have right now. They seriously are amazing!! I also recommend getting a "tweezerman" metal eyelash comb for when you apply mascara, it really helps to get the clumps out and keep your eyelashes straight and fanned out.
There is enough product in this kit to do your eyelashes dozens of times- well worth the money. The pink silicone pads you can just wash off and reuse.", "label": 1}

Or three-four pairs of underwear. Or two polo shirts as long as they are synthetic. The comments about lack of suds are missing the point. The only purpose of any detergent is to reduce the surface tension of water so that it can penetrate your fabric and enable the water to lift out the dirt. You want to use just enough detergent to do that. Anything more is a residue that you have to try to rinse out. I travel frequently in Europe. My 7 to 10-day pack is four pairs of socks (synthetic or bamboo fiber), three polo shirts (synthetic), three pairs of underwear (synthetic), and 2 pairs of polyester/cotton slacks. The slacks typically last two wearings each unless it's grossly hot out or I'm doing a lot of walking. (I'm actually sitting next to my pack in an Eastern European hotel as I write this, having just finished my laundry and noticing that I'm running out of these laundry sheets. I am currently on a 9-day leg, and have zero concerns about clothes or laundry.).
Usually every night or possibly I'll skip a night, I spend about 15-20 minutes soaking all the clothes in hot water in the sink while doing other stuff. ("all the clothes" is usually just 1-2 pairs of socks/underwear, a shirt, and every other day slacks). That part is important - presoaking seems to loosen the fibers and at the same time get the lion's share of sweat / dirt out of the clothes. Empty the water, wring the clothes lightly out in the tub or sink, then refill with hot water. Dry your hands. Dry them again. Let them air dry a little. Or if you have tweezers, use those instead -- all the comments about how water sensitive these laundry soap sheets are nailed it. Any moisture, and they become a solid mass. Fill the sink up with about 2 quarts / liters of hot water. Put in two laundry sheets. Wash your underwear, using squishing / wringing action to force water mechanically through the fabric. The mechanical action, not the chemicals or suds in the soap, is what gets your laundry clean. Probably 10 or so squishings or squeezing or wringings for socks and underwear. Put them to the side.
If you still have enough water (you should), throw in a polo (or a cotton dress shirt). Same deal. Squishing and wringing and squeezing. Mechanically force the water through, paying special attention to the armpits where the residue of your deodorant will build up and hold odor. Cotton is not a problem except it soaks up water like a sponge and doesn't release it easily. And it takes forever to dry in even a moderately humid climate. Put this to the side. Add more water, enough to handle your pants. Add two more laundry soap sheets. Repeat the squeezing squishing wringing action, although this will take longer since pants have more fabric. Wring them out. Empty the sink.
If you have a shower, throw all the clothes in the shower, and take a shower, using the shower to rinse your clothes out. Turn off the shower and while still undressed wring them out as best you can. If you have a pack towel (for backpacking) or a chamois towel or even a microfiber car towel with you (strongly recommended), lay wet clothes out flat on the towel, roll up, and then wring them dry into the towel. These towels will keep soaking up water even when they're wet, and you can just wring them out over and over again. Hang the damp clothes to dry. In a hotel, use the hair dryer to dry your socks if you will need them quickly. I have never had a problem with dirty clothes using this method and these laundry sheets.", "label": 1}

My kids did like that very much, and had a bit of fun picking out what color stars they wanted the first night we used it. However, the sounds, aren't that great. For starters the volume on some of the sounds is way too loud even on the lowest setting. It gets super loud but doesn't quite lower to a comforting level that acts as a 'white noise' type of sound. Not that birds chirping is white noise, but turned down low enough it's a great filler sound for little ones that have a hard time falling asleep in an otherwise super silent room. The sound that we have used with this is the birds chirping. Any other sound either bothers my kids or scares them (to be honest). My children are 5 and 7, and have active little minds, so have a hard time settling down at night. I myself need some sort of 'noise' to sleep be it a TV set on low volume or the A/C running or music playing softly, so I thought this Dream Tones sound therapy machine would be great, esp with the built in night light projection. The sounds it plays are (off the top of my head)- Rain, heartbeat, birds chirping, crickets, ocean waves, running water/stream. The birds are what I assume they are calling "Forest", the "Summer Night" are the crickets and "Babbling Brook" is what sounds like running water to us. The thing that gets me is that some of these sounds are irritating to even me, and since I can only turn them down *so* far I cannot take the edge off the sounds.
The chirping birds "Forest" is the only sound my kids are okay with and seem to drift off to very easily. The other sounds vary in response from my children.
Ocean Waves- Sounds more like a nasty thunder storm and scares the living CRAP out of my 7yr old daughter.
Crickets "Summer Night"- has a horrible metallic echo sound to it in the foreground and it's a noise that really hurts our ears.
Heartbeat- well it is a heartbeat, but it's not that fabulous swooshing soothing sound you hear on some of those infant teddy bears that you place in the cribs of newborns, it's an actual BEAT like a creepy horror film beating heart sound that scared the living daylights out of my 5yr old son....and well, ME! That baffles me, wtf was Conair thinking? Have they not seen those infant heart sounds bears? ((shivers at the creepy heart sound))
Babbling Brooke- the ony thing this sound was great at was making my kids need to pee every 10 mins. It sounds more like someone left a faucet on than a "babbling brook".
Rain- same as babbling brook, only it also freaked them out cause they don't like rain storms.
Birds Chirping- the only tolerable sound, if you don't mind listening to chirping birds on a constant 10 second loop. It would honestly annoy the living crude out of me if I was using this thing, but my children seem okay with it. I do wish you could turn the volume down more because the SHARP chirping carries out of their room, down the hallway and into the living area...it's that loud even on the lowest setting.
So basically it's a really good night projector that makes annoying sounds that either scare your kids or make them need the facilities and is so loud the whole house has to endure the 10 second loop. I'm going to keep looking I suppose. Great idea- as it's portable, battery operated so no cords to mess with, has a great star night light projector, and is compact. It's just the sound execution is awful!", "label": 0}

Prior to the purchase, from reading the reviews, it seems that some users had Wi-Fi setup problems. In trying to find out more from Fitbit's general Aria product page, there was very little other than stating that it is \"easy\" to setup. Out of the box, there is very little information about the setup other than to go to the Fitbit's web site. We did not have a setup problem, but I thought Fitbit's web site was very poor at explaining the setup requirement and process other than saying it is easy (which is probably true for most but not all users). So here are some info to help others understand the setup process and decide if this is the right scale for them.
WiFi setup requirement:
1 - your home Wi-Fi must support 802.11b (it is a much older version of WiFi protocol); most new WiFi router setup commonly will default to be backward compatible with 802.11b/g/n; but if you had changed it to g or n only, then this won't work.
2 - Initial setup will require a device on the same home WiFi network. For many users, this will be your laptop or smart phone. If you use your PC, it must have the same WiFi access and its Ethernet cable (if connected) will need to be disconnected.
3 - make sure you already have a FitBit.com account so it can store your WiFi setup information later
WiFi general setup process:
1 - put the scale into its setup mode (by removing the battery for at least 10 sec, or insert a pin via the scale's bottom hole); this setup mode allows the scale to broadcast its own WiFi network so your computing device can connect to the scale and send your home WiFi information to it.
2 - use your computing device and go to Fitbit's website to download a setup application
3 - the application will detect the current home WiFi network name and ask you for its password
4 - the WiFi information is then sent to your FitBit.com account
5 - the same WiFi setup information is also sent to the scale (via the scale's internally broadcasted WiFi network); you'll need to make sure your computing device is near the scale so as to reach the scale's WiFi network.
6 - once the scale receive the setup information, it will then switch its WiFi mode so as to connect to your home WiFi network (instead of broadcasting its own network).
To support multiple weighing users:
- each user will initially show up as a Guest in your FitBit account's weight measurement
- if the user wants to track his/her weight, a FitBit account will be required
- you can send the user an invite
- once the user accepts the invite, you can then link up the newly measured Guest weight to the invited accounts. You only need to do this once for each new user. After that, the weight will be automatically linked to the proper user based upon previous weights and %body fat.
Weight measuring process: the LCD will display the weight, followed by body fat %, your recognized account name abbreviation (or Guest, if not recognized), and then the upload process to sync with Fitbit. If synchronized successfully to Fitbit, it will display a check mark.
My setup information:
- scale is on the 2nd floor master bath room
- home WiFi is located on the first floor towards the ceiling approximately 25 feet away from the scale
- WiFi router used is a D-Link DIR 655 (purchased in 5/2010) configured to run 802.11b/g/n
- the computing device used during the setup is an Asus laptop running Windows 7 Professional and Internet Explorer 11
- the initial setup was done in the Kitchen where both the laptop and the scale are within 15 feet of the WiFi access point
- after the initial setup, the scale was then moved to the 2nd floor master bathroom
Overall, the device is working well. I had a lot of uncertainty going into the setup due to the lack of Fitbit's documentation. Some of that information is available on their website's support page, but you'll need to dig deep to find them. For this reason, I've downgraded the rating to 4 stars (instead of 5).", "label": 1}

Hada Crie is Japan's #1 bestselling facial cleansing and moisturizing gadget line! I know we hear it all the time: \"#1 bestseller this\", \"Top-selling that\", but in this case, I think it might actually be true. It's wildly popular both in Japan and also worldwide (a simple google search will show you that).
The device's appearance is so appealing! Lightweight, cute, and easy to use. It looks like a cute plastic toy, but the metal plate is where the MAGIC happens. It releases both positive and negative ions and is what cleanses, moisturize and minimize pores on the skin.
Some people compare it to the Clarisonic, however, I bought the Clarisonic and used it for a month, the abrasive brush really didn't appeal to me. I felt like my face was the toilet and Clarisonic was the toilet brush, too harsh on my face! And I think Clarisonic only brushes the dead skincells on the superficial surface away, not really doing anything deep down. With prices about the same for both devices, I'd definitely go with Hada Crie!
Also, it's great that we don't have to use any specialized products with Hada Crie. So you can use your existing skincare products. At the start, I was super confused trying to decide when to use what, but after a little research on the world wide web and some experimenting, I've found the device is quite flexible. You can try many different products and find out what products work best for your skin - switching cotton pads, toners, essence, etc. The KEY is to experiment and find out what works best for YOUR skin. I think of it as a treasure hunt, trying to dig out my treasure~
Keep in mind: Make sure you start with a relatively clean face, this CANNOT be used to remove makeup! Make sure to soak the cotton pad so that it won't make gliding the device over your face abrasive, but not too much that it will ooze liquid when you press it against your skin either.
I also want to praise Hada Crie for its amazing user experience. Using it feels like I'm treating myself to a facial at the spa. I do the routine while watching TV or listening to music before bed, I find it super relaxing. This little thing is also so smart that you will know if you are not holding it right. And the vibrations actually briefly pauses if you pull the device away from the face, then continues the 5-min cycle when you put it back on the face. Kinda amazing how it knows... :)
Now the RESULTS, using Hada Crie I was able to see how much dirt and grime was captured in the used cotton pads. It was quite disgusting but it shows how much dirt I still had even after washing my face. My pores are definitely smaller and I was very satisfied when I touched my face and found that they were obviously more plump. It really felt \"bouncier\" and like it was boosted with moisture! Love it!
I don't agree with the comment of \"not having enough time to use this\". Hada Crie is actually very flexible in terms of usage. I can use each step separately as needed, and don't have to commit to the 5-min if I was in a hurry. For example, I use step 3 Moisturize mode alone in the morning for 1 min or so, and sometimes at night I just use step 1 Cleansing and step 3 Moisturize, and if I get real lazy, I only use step 1. So I really didn't think it was a burden at all, rather, I was looking forward to washing my face each night!
The battery life is great too. I bought it about 15+ days ago, been using it every night and sometimes during the morning as well, and I've only charged it once so far! Just for 5 hours as instructed when I first received it!
Hada Crie has already become my holy grail~! Definitely the best investment I made this year and I highly recommend it!", "label": 1}

Seriously, the applications here are ENDLESS.
I frequently call myself crunchy. I am a big organic choosing person, I like natural remedies, I don't vaccinate my kids, I love homeopathic remedies. I may be a controversy and you may not agree with me. Hell, you may hate me.
But we can all agree that a high quality coconut oil has so many applications. I have seen articles listing 101 uses for coconut oil, and guess what? They're not wrong.
There are a lot of reasons why I will choose this brand of oil over the pre-packaged Costco mix. For starters. this oil is shipped safely and is in GLASS. I am so anti-plastic it's unreal and this oil is stored in glass. In the past, when my oil would come, I would transfer it to glass to avoid the plastic exposure. But with this brand, I don't have to do that!
I love that it's organic and virgin. Before the natural movement, nothing was organic.
I have a few applications I want to share and I hope, besides cooking, you use these.
For one, if you love Thai or Asian food, that you take the time to make fried chicken for curry or stir fry with this oil. It doesn't handle high heat (it isn't meant to) but it certainly fries up small pieces of chicken deliciously and it's a healthy, beautiful MCT fat strand oil to use for this purpose. Everything you've heard about deep fried goes out the window when you use this oil. Heat the pan. heat the oil. and cook delicious chicken. I promise you won't regret it.
The next thing I want to talk about is a hair mask. Go get your essential oils if you're like me for this one because that's going to help.
If you have dry hair, this is the best thing ever. I have colour treated hair (it's a vegan dye, but my hair is naturally dark brown, so yes -- I have to unnaturally lift it to white blonde to get the colour I want)-- without coconut oil I am positive my hair would be fried and dry.
Once a week, I take a high quality oil such as this, and I mix in 2 drops lavender, 2 drops sweet basil, 2 drops rosemary, 2 drops cedarwood, and 2 drops thyme. Mix thoroughly. I generally have 6-8 tbsp of oil for my hair, although I have long hair (to my bust line). Stir vigorously until combined.
Apply to your hair, from root to tip (mostly tip) until saturated and then braid or clip your hair up for the afternoon. I love to put on a hankerchief and do my thing for the day. Rinse with a great shampoo until it doesn't feel greasy anymore. This is such a great hair treatment and while you rinse, at least spend 1-2 minutes massaging your scalp. This encourages hair growth. As a woman having had 3 kids, this is great for my hormonal imbalance that doesn't want my hair to grow. Add biotin and garlic and watch your hair grow like crazy!
Got dry nail beds? Massage nightly into nails and watch your nails grow like crazy. Biotin, again, is a great addition here. Push back your cuticles gently while you massage the oil into your nail beds.
Got body aches? Add a few drops of lavender oil and massage onto areas of the body that need an analgesic affect and soothe sore muscles.
Need a lubricant that doesn't quit? Plain coconut oil will be the greatest sexual lubricant you'll ever use. I actually smell coconut oil and get turned on now. My husband LOVES it. Real talk.
Dry skin on your baby? Cradle cap? Coconut oil.
Dry hands and feet in the winter? Coconut oil.
Tanning in the summer? Coconut oil.
Like, staphhhh. The greatest essential oil carrier alive.
I can't say enough good things.
I got this oil at a discount in exchange for my review and I couldn't be happier.
Buy this oil. It's value is worth it (undiscounted!) and it's stored in glass. Keeps my crunchy counterparts from taking an extra worthwhile step.", "label": 1}

I got this item at a marked down price for my genuine review however the full price is more than worth it for the item you are getting! The amount of Fatty Acids are key here people when you are looking for omega 3 you want high DHA and EPA! 2400 is about the highest I've seen it so this is really high and makes for some great omega 3, the company went a step further when they wanted it to taste good for you! Personally I never had a problem with the fishy taste ect however many people complain about that when buying omega 3 I know so that is just great to see the extra effort and using something like lemon which taste great! I highly recommend this product and would like to educate you more about omega 3.
Omega-3 unsaturated fats (omega-3s) are a gathering of polyunsaturated unsaturated fats that are critical for various capacities in the body. Some writes of omega-3s are found in sustenance, for example, greasy fish and shellfish. Another sort is found in some vegetable oils. Omega-3s are additionally accessible as dietary supplements. This sheet gives essential data about omega-3s\u2014with an emphasis on dietary supplements, compresses investigative examination on viability and security, and proposes hotspots for extra data.
There has been a generous measure of examination on supplements of omega-3s, especially those found in fish and fish oil, and coronary illness. The discoveries of individual studies have been conflicting. In 2012, two joined investigations of the aftereffects of these studies did not discover persuading proof these omega-3s secure against coronary illness.
There is some proof that omega-3s found in fish and fish oil might be unassumingly useful in diminishing manifestations in rheumatoid joint pain. For most different conditions for which omega-3s have been contemplated, authoritative conclusions can't yet be come to, or concentrates on have not demonstrated omega-3s to be useful.
Omega-3 supplements may cooperate with medications that influence blood thickening.
It is dubious whether individuals with fish or shellfish sensitivities can securely devour fish oil supplements.
Fish liver oils (which are not the same as fish oils) contain vitamins An and D and also omega-3 unsaturated fats; these vitamins can be lethal in high measurements.
Enlighten all your medicinal services suppliers regarding any reciprocal wellbeing approaches you utilize. Give them a full picture of what you do to deal with your wellbeing. This will guarantee facilitated and safe consideration.
The three important omega-3 unsaturated fats are alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The principle wellsprings of ALA in the U.S. eating regimen are vegetable oils, especially canola and soybean oils; flaxseed oil is wealthier in ALA than soybean and canola oils however is not ordinarily devoured. ALA can be changed over, more often than not in little sums, into EPA and DHA in the body. EPA and DHA are found in fish, including greasy fish (e.g., salmon, fish, and trout) and shellfish (e.g., crab, mussels, and clams).
Ordinarily utilized dietary supplements that contain omega-3s incorporate fish oil (which gives EPA and DHA) and flaxseed oil (which gives ALA). Green growth oils are a vegan wellspring of DHA.
Omega-3 unsaturated fats are essential for various real capacities, including muscle movement, blood coagulating, processing, ripeness, and cell division and development. DHA is vital for mental health and capacity. ALA is a "key" unsaturated fat, implying that individuals must get it from sustenance or supplements on the grounds that the human body can't produce it.", "label": 1}

Initially, I was less than impressed with the level of stick the long pads had..or didnt have for that matter. However, that was only an issue when the pads were used for the very first time.. They just weren't getting a strong stick despite me having thoroughly prepped my skin by first washing the area with warm soapy water..pat dry with paper towels followed by fully air drying and applying 91% isopropyl alcohol to the area where I wanted to place the pads (& of course allowing it to dry first which only takes mere milliseconds lol) and still they just wouldn't really stay on. I had to stand there and hold them in place which was super annoying. I was slightly disappointed to say the least but considering that I did not have any other pads and I had already paid for,opened, & began using these ones I didnt feel right returning them and just tried to be positive about it and I went ahead and used the pads again fully expecting to have to physically hold the pads for the entire duration of the treatment.. But,strangely, to my [pleasant]surprise...this wasn't the case. This time, they were plenty sticky..almost too sticky at times lol. I did put on some tight spandex clothing just as a reinforcement cuz I will say that despite them being sticky (the 2nd time around lol) if youre moving around a lot and they happen to be in an area where the skin is highly manipulated during movement (like the lower glutes/\"under-butt\" area where the glute meets the leg)and you start sweating..if you don't have something like spandex shorts to keep them in place they will def eventually drop off..and I'll tell you what, having the pad begin to lose contact with the skin during a muscle building treatment(deeper more intense &full muscle contractions that are held for longer lengths of time) is sooo not fun! Its actually rather painful.. The pins&needles sensation is extremely amplified into more of of a stabbing sensation coupled with a very real shocking sensation and in my experience having the pad lift up like that actually intensified the muscle contraction 10 fold so now you've got this feeling of being stabbed, shocked, &the most painful cramping charlie horse you can imagine..it was almost paralyzing lol I couldn't even move I had to wait for the contraction to stop before I could move to push the pause button to figure out what in the world was going on! I do have to admit it was pretty conical despite the pain..I'm glad it happened tho as it lent itself to the expansion of my knowledge...salt water (aka sweat) is the #1 substance to increase conduciveness AND I wasn't crazy in thinking that the pad lifting intensified the effect..cuz since the pads work by sendings signals back and forth between eachother passing thru&stimulating the muscles directly below that area.. When you slightly start to lift one of the pads of the skins surface it's still within range to successfully exchange signals,however the signal is now travelling a further distance which creates a stronger force on the muscles being stimulated. The example that helped clarify this for me was using your finger to move water. Create a set distance between point A& B and move your finger back and forth between those 2 points at a steady even rate/speed and note the reaction in the water ..now increase the distance between those 2 points(A&B) and repeat using the same rate/speed as before and you'll notice a significant increase in the intensity of the water movement even if the distance wasnt increased all that much..plus, the speed will naturally increase on its own due to the build up of momentum and the same is true for the signal being sent between the pads which you can really feel during those deep intense muscle building treatments.
Anyways, for this price, I totally think its worth it and have yet to find a better deal. I've found pads that were cheaper, but when the cost of shipping was factored in it was no longer a more feasible option.", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3748, "id": 566, "interval": [900, 1000], "len_words": 806, "len_tokens": 999, "text": "I have been enjoying this little Sonic face cleansing gadget. I haven't any prior experience to these (facial cleansing brushes always seemed to be spinning style, and I didn't not want that style) but I pretty much knew what to expect, and understand how it works. The soft silicone surface is the cleaning brush area, and it is static. Vibration behind it gives action to the silicone bristles and it gently provides cleansing power. There are multiple vibration options with a short press of a button (long press to hold on). Auto memory features remembers your last setting.
As with ANY skin cleansing brush, if you have a face full of make up plan to remove it with a cloth first (the idea being that bristles and massage could work it down into pores? Your experience, school of thought may vary).
There is no need to press hard against skin, just let it glide. I use small gentle circles over a wet face slathered in skin cleanser. I don't wear much in make up but I always wear sunscreen and other layers of skin care. I often double cleanse because of this. Usually an oily balm followed by a cream cleanser (I have dry skin). For this, I have been skipping the first cleanse with an oil balm and just using the cream cleanser-- figured for testing purposes to keep it the same for several uses.
And no, it doesn't create lather, bubbles.. it isn't a circulating brush. Stationary silicone brush with vibration behind it. But it cleans! I thought, well is it just a hand held soft scrubber? How could it be better than a wash cloth? It is so much better than a wash cloth. And so much more gentle. And more hygienic.
Maybe other kinds are better, but I can only tell you my experience and thoughts on THIS \"AVJONE Sonic Facial Cleansing Brush\"-- and is a budget friendly option too.
Maybe it will vary among users, but my skin felt and looked clean. Not only that, but I have been really enjoying the experience of using it. My night time skin care routine in particular is a sacred time. I aim to enjoy it rather than see it as a chore. So I enjoy using more pamper worthy products, tools, hair bands, etc. Me time. And, this has added to my experience. It is.. relaxing. The whether I use the vibration at lowest setting, or highest, it has a calming sensation. I use it on face, neck, and chest. The recommended time for cleaning is 1 minute, and it will turn off after 3. I go almost the full 3 since I am adding in my neck and chest--and I am taking it slowly. No scrubbing, rubbing, or pressure. Just gentle circles around skin.
My cleanser is massaged in, it is moved around a little (the nubs don't move in circles, there is a vibration under them), and then when all done I rinse my face and it looks so.. fresh, bright, clean. I feel/see no traces left behind of sunscreen. The lotion was effectively broken down by this. It is a notable difference from hand washing, or washing with a washcloth.
So for me, it works. I AM enjoying this.
The small device is comfortable in hand. Easy to use. I like the base that it sits on. There is a small hole for DRAINAGE. I rinse off the device after each use, but don't dry it off, so I like that it sit up perfectly in this base.
I really have come to like and appreciate silicone for use in cleaning my face and body. Seems so much more hygienic.
The charger is usb on one end and a magnetic attachment at the device. Mine came charged, and so other than an initial plug-in to make sure it worked, I haven't had to charge it any. I have used it 5 nights now, each night for 2-3 minutes at a time. (debating on whether I can/should use it nightly or not). Charger may feel hot to touch, and is normal. Do NOT charge for more than 24 hours.
When I do have to finally get around to charging it, I will just have to lay it on a wash cloth or counter top. The base is not for setting device in while charging. I suppose maybe one day they could redesign the base to include both a drainage hole and a charging port
PS. The direction state NOT to use it with clay-based cleansers, silicone-based or granular based cleansers, exfoliating creams or scrubs.
Use cream cleansers, oil cleansers, water based cleansers. The usual-- just not something that could damage silicone, and/or create too much(combined) friction on face.
That's it! I like it. As I use it more, if I experience anything worth sharing, I will be back to update.", "label": 1}

Just in the past year and a half, I've really started getting into the live concert scene. Let me rephrase that, I've started getting into the live rock concert scene. I've always been a frequent attendee of wind ensemble and orchestra concerts.
I've also always have had a mild case of tinnitus, or ringing in the ears. This ringing is evidence of hearing damage, and it irreversible.
Needless to say, going to rock concerts without hearing protection left me with a few nights of extra-ringing ears, and almost certainly hearing damage as well.
More recently, I've actually been experiencing perforations of my ear drum and even just this year a full burst. Because of all of this, I decided to get my hands on a pair of ear plugs.
The problem for me is that I can't just wear any old foam earplugs. I'm a bit of an audiophile, and those regular earplugs just make everything sound muffled, which for me defeats a lot of the purpose of going to a live show in the first place.
That's where the downbeats come in. They are a special type of ear plug that lets most of the sound profile in, but cuts the volume to a safe level (they advertise 18dB noise reduction).
Spoiler alert: they really do work as advertised. I wore them at a five hour metalcore concert this past weekend and I'm happy to report that I didn't have ringing ears after the show. I also was able to hear all of the frequencies, just quieter. I could still feel the music, and it wasn't *quiet* by any means, but it was not a damaging loudness.
One thing to note is that unfortunately, these earplugs cut out conversation almost completely at a concert event. Conversations are hard at a concert event generally, because of all the noise, but these made it noticably harder to hear. I found myself removing one plug if I wanted to talk to my friends.
Related to conversation, these earplugs tend to make you talk even quiter than normal. Because of how they sit in your ear canal, you end up hearing your voice pretty loud in your head, so you talk quiter to other people with them in. It's really a minor inconvenience, though, considering that these save your hearing. Again, you can just remove one when you feel the need to talk, and that solves the problem.
The downbeats fit pretty comfortably, which is to say that I could wear them for the whole five hours of the show. To me, they feel like in-ear headphones. You definitely notice a pressure in the ear canal, but it's not terribly unpleasant. That means a lot from me, because I *despise* in ear headphones, because I find them incredibly uncomfortable.
Luckily, even though these earplugs sit very similar in the ear to in-ear headphones, they stay in much better. One of my biggest fears in getting fancy earplugs was that they would fall out while I danced, jumped, headbanged, and otherwise moshed at the show. I am happy to report that these earplugs stayed in very well, and I never once had a problem with them slipping out or feeling loose. These are earplugs that I would recommend for metal, hardcore, rock, punk, etc shows.
The downbeats also don't stick out from the ear very far, which is nice because you don't have to worry about catching a bump from the crowd and shoving the earplug too deep into the ear, damaging the ear drum (rock shows get intense). This also means that the downbeats are pretty inconspicuous, so you don't have to worry about everyone in the crowd knowing you're wearing earplugs.
I didn't have any problems removing the downbeats from my ears after the show, although I have read reviews that said people did have some trouble with this. The included carrying case is also a really convenient storage system for when you take the plugs out, which is always a bonus. It's made of metal, and could definitely take a beating, although I didn't subject it to one.
Overall, these are highly recommended by me. I liked everything about the product, and I look forward to taking them to more shows in the future. But even if you choose not to get this product, or if it doesn't work for you, wear earplugs to concerts, people.", "label": 1}

As it says in the information sent with the device, this is not a hearing aid, and if you have problems with your hearing then you need to contact a doctor. Honestly, if you think you need an item like this, then that's exactly what you need to do. You need to contact a professional so that you can get some \"real\" assistance.
This device is marketed to \"baby boomers\", of which I am one. But this is a VERY \"challenging\" device in many ways. MANY \"baby boomers\" and most \"seniors\" would never be able to set the device up. . . much less be able to operate it once it's all plugged-in. This is the reason the \"Jitterbug\" cell phone was created. . . . Keep It Simple!!! This device is anything but simple, especially for those for whom it is supposed to be geared toward. Most \"seniors\" do not want. . need. . . or desire \"fancy gadgets\" with lots of buttons.
If this item were $59.95, then I would give it higher marks. . . but. . . it's not! It's many times that, and not worth it!
I was able to set it up without too much difficulty, but I know many of my friends would have simply left it in the box. Even if someone had their child or grandchild set it up for them, they still will be \"lost\" as to how to operate it.
Three of the functions / modes, I just don't \"get\". If you need a headset for a telephone, then you can get one very inexpensively. No need for this. If you have trouble hearing people, and carrying on a conversation with someone, then you probably need to see a professional about having your hearing tested and acquiring a \"real\" device for assistance. I don't know anyone who wants to walk around with what looks to be an \"odd\" mp3 player with earplugs to talk to people. The third function, of playing \"sounds\" is just kind of annoying. At first I thought it might be nice. . but. . I was listening to what I would call \"waves\". . . It's obviously on a \"loop\" playing the sounds over and over. . . but. . . there is a \"beginning\" and an \"end\". . . So when the loop finishes, it's not a smooth transition to start playing again. You notice where it \"ends\" and then \"starts\" again. Personally, this is very annoying. It should be a seamless loop.
Now for the one function that does indeed work, and I actually like. . .. Watching TV. Once you set it up, you can actually listen to TV and it works just fine. I like this because I live in a condo, and though the walls a quite thick, I still don't want to turn the TV up too loud, and there have been times when it would have been more enjoyable to have a headset like this. Granted, there are a few \"issues\" with this also. First, it will work with just one TV, because you have to run a cord from the TV to the base of the device. Second, the information shows that the battery will last about 6.5-hours in TV mode. Granted, that's a bit of time, but if it's a weekend, and you want to watch a lot, it still might not be enough. It takes 5-hours to charge the device as well. Also, if you have the earplugs in to watch TV, then if you have other people around you, you're probably not going to be able to \"socialize\". You're either going to be watching TV with the earplugs in. . . or . . . not have the earplugs in and \"socializing\". Also, the earplugs are not all that comfortable. I'm assuming I can use other earplugs or earphones I find more comfortable. I haven't tried that yet, but I'm \"assuming\" it will work.
But even though I like the TV part. . . . There are MUCH less expensive and better options, if that's really what you're looking for. I did a search on Amazon.com and there are some GREAT options. . . . a LOT less expensive. . . . and cordless!!!!", "label": 0}

In fact, rubbing it on, it does not even feel like you are putting product on your skin. It's like rubbing yourself against a nice smelling bar of something that leaves its scent on your skin, so the residue it leaves on your armpits is super light and not visible to the naked eye unless a tiny bit of it gathers up in the folds of your armpit, which will happen with anything. It's that unnoticeable feeling-wise, which is just amazing since I am used to seeing and feeling the deodorant from a regular bar. I used to use Lady Speedstick before deciding to switch to an aluminum free option.
I actually only tried one other aluminum free deodorant before this one and it did not bode well for me. That was the lavender scent from Love Beauty and Planet, which has a much stronger perfume scent to it than anything. That other one was working out \"meh\" for a few days. I always had to keep reapplying it though because I would smell heavily of BO within only a few hours. So every three or four hours I was applying it and still the faint scent of body odor would waft through and intermingle with strong artificial lavender.
I'm glad to say that is not the case at all with this brand. I think I found my go to from now on, as long as the success of it keeps up. I've been putting it on only once a day in the morning and then again at night and I have not smelled like BO even ONCE since using this deodorant. It is that effective and it's almost magical just how effective it is for not having aluminum. It does use bamboo and zinc, so it seems that is a winning combo.
I will also add that the previous aluminum free brand I tried did not give me a rash at first but after about a week, it started irritating my skin, which led to a rash that persisted for four days even after I stopped using it or any product for that matter. That's when I found this brand and ordered it and awaited its arrival. This one has not irritated my skin in the slightest and it feels light, like there's nothing on my armpits really. My aluminum deodorant would clog my armpit follicles and cause ingrown hairs. This brand appears to be very good for not doing that either, so far at least.
The smell is light and airy and not artificial smelling at all. It smells like Fruit Loops, or like how real lavender smells. Can't really smell much of the vanilla but that is okay. I DO hope they make other scents besides just the pine, the lavender that this one is, and non scented in the future. Something with citrus or sweet pea would be absolutely fantastic.
However, I will say that I do think that the price is a few dollars too high. If this bar were around $8 to $10 instead, it would be a lot better in my opinion. Especially since the creator of this brand does not have to invest in more expensive packaging other than paper. I wonder why the cost is so much higher, if that's the case? The amount for the cost is pretty disappointing, in my opinion. I know the ingredients for the amount you get are not worth that much. It is my only real gripe with this brand, but it is a biggie for those who want a healthy and eco conscious deodorant that actually works but are not rich by any means. It's one of the main reasons a lot of people don't want to make the switch - because a lot of aluminum free deodorants are WAY too overpriced, so they just end up sticking to their $4 bars because they simply can't afford it.
I don't think body healthy and eco conscious products should be exclusive to only those who can afford luxury items. Seems counter-productive to me if the goal is really to get everyone on board to help their bodies and the environment. That's really the only reason I give this four stars instead of five. I've been using it almost 2 weeks now and it hasn't let me down since, so I will likely be a return customer as long as the price goes no higher.", "label": 1}

The material and make is thick and sturdy and the improved stitching looks, feels and responds well.
The support and heat I feel in the joint from the correct size is VERY good.
I was looking for knee sleeves to train heavy and hard in for prevention, re-injury avoidance, and support.
They felt great while training. I rolled them down to my calves during other movements and rolled them over my knees for squat cleans.
I forgot about them for the last round and realized they were still on my knees for all movements!
I loved the feel. I am usually rushing to get my knee lifting wraps off!
I will wash them often, but in the shower when I shower (with COLD water) so they will last a long time (and don't build up a stink!)
I have been training/natural bodybuilding/lifting/competing for 40+ years. Add in military service and other hard service and I have quite a few bangs on me, but I address them pre, during, and post workout as well as on off days, and I rarely notice any of them. I started ramping up my training again a year ago and am now training more and more intensely (as everyone should throughout their life.) I see that there will be some monster dead-lifts, squats and other lifts on the horizon, so knee sleeves were a must. I shopped around and liked what I was reading on Rip Toned knee sleeves.
I have thick calves where the measure is taken 6" below the center of the patella (17"+) and I thought I would like a tight sleeve (because I am use to wrapping my knees with thick power lifting wraps) so I ordered one size down.
Recommended size XXL. Ordered XL.
At the same time I happened to order a second pair for my lifting partner whose calves are 14"
Recommended and ordered size: L.
It turns out that the L was a size too large for my partner who has tiny joints and the XL was still a size too large for me (I have small joints too!)
I contacted Rip Toned to exchange the XL for a Med and they were VERY fast to respond.
If you have thick limbs and small joints, and you want a tight sleeve, you might consider a size or two smaller.
If you get it wrong, the company was very supportive and helpful in helping to get to the right final size.
For reference: 6" above the patella my legs are 22"+ and 6" below they are 17"+. My knee @center patella measures 15.5"
I took the L sleeves I bought for my partner and wore those last night for some squat-cleans.
The sleeves went on snug (YESSS!) and heated up the joint right away. At the bottom of the squat (well below parallel), and throughout, I felt solid support from the sleeve (VERY nice.) At the same time they did not impinge my movement at all.
The medium fit my partner nicely. At first, the comment from my partner was that they were tight at the top, but after the first squat, the comment was that they felt good and fit snug while providing nice support.
Since I am built sturdy and thick and handle gross weights, I expect to really give these a serious test over time.
I will update the review with my observations.
As others have noted, right out of the zip-lock pouch they come in, they are outgassing. So, open em up outside and hang em out to breath!
Those are likely VOCs you would be breathing. I could not smell anything day 2 unless I hold it to my nose.
In addition to the sleeves, you could get an RT Beanie if they are still offering them (I did not use the code, so did not get one.)
Now that I love this company, I wish I had :-)
They sent a knee sleeve e-guide with general info as well as basic info on care, very important because I want them to last!
Plus they offer you a ton of complimentary video and ebook content that covers many, many goals in training, diet and lifestyle areas!
The videos are good and informative about proper training form and about quite a few errors in training that I see often.
As I have been a high level trainer, am now working on my PhD in Physiology with a BS in exercise science and bioscience, and 3 decades training others, I could have written most of those e-books, but a cursory look at them was sufficient for me to say that they would be valuable to beginners and intermediate level trainees.", "label": 1}

They had a 40% off with 3-months automatic delivery deal. The worst mistake I've ever made. I was 127 lbs, hoping to lose 10 pounds or so and I thought this will save me time (no cooking required) and will help me achieve that goal in 3 months. A year later the food is still collecting dust in my pantry. :( Quite frankly Nutrisystem achieved what I thought was impossible: they produced a variety of dishes that are equally offensive to all your senses at once: your sense of smell, sight and your taste.
I have to say that their breakfast items and snacks are okay... Nothing tastes particularly good, but they are edible... Some of the muffins, scones, etc were very dry so I had to soak them in milk. Yes, that added calories to my \"meals\", but at least I could swallow the food. I ate all 3 months' worth of breakfasts and snacks without much of an issue. My deal also included their shakes, which were okay, but nothing great, so I still have some of those.
The real issue was with the lunch and dinner items. Aside from the portions, which were laughably small (and this is coming from someone who is not obese, just needed to lose a few pounds... I just can't imagine anyone 200 pounds or above not passing out from a \"lunch\" that consists of a tiny can of soup (120 calories and literally 6 spoonfuls...), there is also the issue of taste. NutriSystem lunches were either salty or tasteless. There was hardly any other taste. But generally the lunch items were still less offensive than the dinner \"dishes.\"
I have to admit I was only able to try 6 of their dinner dishes, and I could not finish any of them. Let me share one experience that might stay with me for the rest of my life. On day 3 of my diet I had already substituted 2 meals with other food because I simply couldn't eat what the \"chefs\" at NutriSystem had planned for me... After a long day at work I got home and unpacked my dinner for the day: Chicken and Dumplings. How bad could it be, right? Well... Brace yourself. I cracked open the vacuum seal to let the meal breathe in the microwave when a strong smell hit my nose. It was absolutely rancid. I was afraid to look at it. I warmed my \"chicken and duplings\" for a minute and then took the mystery package out of the microwave. As I opened the lid fully, I saw a brown stew with runny liquid on top of it. The smell intensified. I was scared to taste it at this point but my hunger got the best of me... Big mistake! I will not elaborate on the combination of sensations that hit me when I bit into the hard dumplings, sprinkled with overcooked chicken shreds floating in a light brown liquid of unidentifiable origin... Suffice it to say that I had to flush it down the toilet and somehow it looked better and more fitting in the toilet bowl than on my dinner plate. It was among the top 3 worst things I've ever tasted in my life...
It is hard to imagine that anyone could stick to this diet, though if one had the willpower to empty their fridge, their pantry and all other food storage areas and kept nothing but NutriSystem at home, I am sure he or she would lose weight. But starvation is not a good idea and one would need to starve because eating this putrid junk is probably not an option. Don't get me wrong, I understand that diet food is not necessarily gourmet food, but I have eaten pretty much every dish available from Lean Cuisine and 90% of them tasted good! So my expectation for NutriSystem was similar... And I was extremely disappointed. I've never in my life had food that tasted as revolting.
Please skip their food, your stomach (and your eyes and nose) will thank you for it... If you are looking for diet food that actually tastes good, I recommend buying a bunch of things from the store in advance and creating your own diet plan with food that actually tastes good. Special K cereal for breakfast, Lean Cuisine for lunch and dinner, and a piece of fruit or some trail mix as a snack will contain about the same amount of calories that most prepackaged meals do but the taste will be many times better. The price will also be similar. Good luck.", "label": 0}

This is a bit long, but please take the time to read it all. This will explain why some reviewers think they didn't receive the complete product.
I discovered this Fatigued to Fantastic powder on Enzymatic Therapy's website when I was looking for something else. Enzymatic Therapy is the maker of this product and I know and trust their brand. All of their product lines are shown on their website. This product looked great and I decided I would buy it. It was a canister containing powder and they make two flavors - Berry and Citrus.
However, I always check Amazon to see if they carry products and compare the prices. I found several sellers offering this product here on Amazon, and I was delighted to find that the prices on Amazon are HALF the retail price. I ordered the Citrus flavor on another page from a seller who had both flavors. Please understand that I thought I was ordering the canister of powder which is shown on the manufacturer's website. I even sprung for one day delivery so I'd get it faster.
After I ordered, I received the confirmation email that said I had ordered this \"Kit\" that contained the powder AND the supplement capsules. I came back to the sales page, enlarged the photo and saw that it was indeed a kit with both products.
I cancelled my order. I was confused. I only wanted the powder.
So I called Enzymatic Therapy and asked them to clarify if this \"Kit\" was their legitimate product, since it does not appear on their website. Here is what they told me...
They haven't made the \"Kit\" in the photo and description above for several years. At that time they made a major change. Instead of offering the bottle of vitamins with the powder as the Kit, THEY ADDED THOSE SAME VITAMINS TO THE POWDER ITSELF, so all of the ingredients are now in the one product - the canister containing the powder.
The Kits that are shown on this page and the other sellers' pages NO LONGER EXIST anywhere - no retailer or distributor has them. They have been gone for years.
So the rep told me that all of the pages - like this one - are showing and describing the old product that doesn't exist and that the sellers just haven't updated their pages over the years. At first I found that hard to believe because in all that time, customers would have surely complained if they didn't receive what's shown.
But she was positive that if I placed the order again, I would receive the newer canister (which is what I wanted.) I receive my order the next day (yesterday) and she was right.
So, in summary...
1. The reviewers who said they didn't receive the bottle of vitamin caps with the order as they expected were right.
2. The product \"Kit\" that's shown and described above is not what you will receive. You'll only receive the powder.
3. BUT you will receive full value of the product because those extra B vitamins are now in the actual powder itself.
Actually, you will receive MORE than full value because Amazon's price is half the retail price plus free shipping.
Oh...one more thing. I read reviews on several pages and I'm glad I didn't order the Berry. I do not like my powders sweet. I ordered the Citrus flavor and it's perfect - definitely not sweet - it's just right. I just added it to spring water and it tasted very good.
I hope this all helps...
UPDATE A FEW DAY AFTER TRYING THE PRODUCT:
I had very high hopes for this product. Good brand, good taste, good reviews. I'm always looking for the most healthful ways to increase energy. I've been a health nut for decades and have always taken lots of vitamins and supplements and nutritional products (greens, etc) and stay current on the latest research.
However, the first couple of days I took the Fatigued to Fantatic powder, I felt abnormally sleepy. Way too relaxed. I skipped a day and bounced back to normal. Took it again and the same thing happened. Instead of giving me energy, it brought my energy way down. I don't know what ingredient caused this. Since I'm used to taking a lot of supplements, I thought maybe it's one of the amino acids. I'm also thinking that perhaps this product is designed more to benefit someone with a condition (CFS,Fibromyalgia, etc). But for those who do not have a condition, perhaps it's overload in some way. I don't know.
I'm returning it and now back to my regular supplements.
I advise you to try it yourself and see how your body reacts. All of the positive reviews can't be wrong.", "label": 0}

Of course, the product and App didn't initially state that it had a low battery. On the contrary, it just started miscalculating weight - falsely overstating my weight at a progressive rate of 3 lbs a week. After a few weeks and total anxiety about gaining 15 lbs yet all my clothes still fitting fine, I decided to replace the battery. At that point, it couldn't reconnect to my wifi. After repeated removal of the battery and resetting the scale and my wifi password, it finally reconnected to the wifi. However, at that point, when I attempted to use the scale, the screen would indicate "THINKING... ERR." I called Fitbit customer service for help. They told me that since the problems started after the 12 month warranty expired, they would not cover any repair under warranty. They further told me that because I moved the scale around too much (most likely from flipping the product over to access the battery and reset button), I disrupted the sensor calibration. The internal parts that operate this sensor calibration are non-serviceable, so the device is now a paperweight... This is a known issue by Fitbit. Just do a web search on Aria Thinking ERR and you will see a multitude of unhappy product owners. The Fitbit customer service person even had the nerve to suggest that I upgrade to the Aria II scale since I had a problem with this one. Of course, they offered zero compensation to cover this upgrade cost... Don't buy this garbage product! Don't trust Fitbit. They don't stand behind their products, they put junk into the marketplace, they know it's junk, and they don't take ownership of the problems they create for clients. I would rate this as the worst customer service experience I've had in consumer products for as long as I can remember.
UPDATE - June 2019. I decided that after 18 months, I was going to try again to get this scale to work. Put in new batteries and connected it to the network / fitbit, with the hope that it would load a firmware update and fix itself... wishful thinking. I reached out to fitbit to see if there was a firmware update or some other resolution. Surely, if they had thousands of complaints on their fitbit community forum, they must have realized that they needed to take some accountability for this product. Again, I got the same nonsense response. Since the problems happened after 1 year warranty expired, there is nothing they can do. I asked for a suggestion on a quality scale and they said the Aria 2 was greatly improved over the original - the issues with the 1st generation were resolved in the manufacture of the 2nd. So... I asked if they clearly knew there were defects in the original, why didn't they reach out to customers during their warranty periods to ask if they would test for the defect (many reviews showing the same fail said it happened after the first battery change). This question seemed to freeze the customer service person I contacted. They had no answer on why a company claiming to be focused on customer service and care would do such an unscrupulous act. At this point, she said there was nothing she could do, so she transferred me to a supervisor. The supervisor hear this same question and said... \"let me review the entire case file and repair claim and see if we can reach a final resolution.\" The conclusion of this call was unfortunate. This time, they offered to sell me a replacement Aria 2 scale with \"free shipping\" and/or a 3 month trial membership of Fitbit Coach... What a joke. They sold me a lousy product that they knew was defective at the time I bought it (I purchased it Dec 2016 after the Aria 2 was already on the market), they chose not to notify me during the 12-month warranty period of the potential product failure if batteries are replaced, then, after I got the product failure in month 13, they said, \"too bad, you reported this problem to us after your warranty has expired, there is nothing we can do.\" I ask you... is this a company you would want to do business with?", "label": 0}

I am undergoing some medication for 12 weeks that will be hard on my liver and I want to do all I can to protect it and help it. And let me tell you with these ingredients I am feeling pretty good about it. The primary benefit with these ingredients is liver repair and support. Now those of you who follow my reviews know my deal is skin care and supplements so lets dig in.
As you can see these are syringes that are filled with orange thick paste. At the opening mine had become hard and dried so when I pushed it came out the top. I stuck a sharp piece of metal to free it up (see pic). It taste better cold but made it hard again to push out. So I cut it to make the opening bigger and you can see it comes out now thicker and easier (see spoon with thicker line). It does not taste bad but does not taste good to me. The best way I can describe it (but still not accurate) is it taste like sweet lemony /orange licorice.
Why ? Why all this intricate delivery system ? Why not make it a pill or a liquid ?
Lets start with Glutathione. The seller called it \"mother of all antioxidants\" and thats new to me as I have always heard it called \" The Master Antioxidant\". Reason being it is in EVERY cell meaning it works everywhere and very hard to get rid of toxins and oxidants and even regenerates other antioxidants. It works so powerful that yes even your skin improves by working inside out. Sounds Great ....so what's the problem ? It cant get past the stomach before getting destroyed. But hey our liver makes this so no need right ? You use up all your liver makes and may get affected with what's still in your body that still needs to be removed .
Ok then we make it an liposomal pill right ? Well yes but that still works less than great with glutathione. Now you supplement pros might recognize Mr David Sinclair who came up with a genius delivery system for some of his supplements that were not bioavailable that I use everyday before I take my stack. He eats yogurt or drinks extra virgin olive oil cold pressed so the good fat in them can carry the supplement through the stomach and aid in absorption. I drink 2 table spoons every morning as soon as I get up and then take my first stack. You can not get these ingredients put in a pill and still maintain their liposomal effect. Notice ingredient number 2 and 3,,coconut oil and olive oil. BINGO !! Hence the syringe !
Now I am going to stick my neck out there and say the seller may have made this for people who wanted to number 1 get liver support and/or number 2 prevent covid or alleviate vaccination sides. I say this due to lactoferrin an ingredient in this that all I knew helped with iron absorption. But after looking deep into it trying to figure out the angle there are many studies indicating it prevents viral infection by killing them ( viruses) and yes all of them to some extent. It also has the ability to transport elements ( like iron) through the intestines but as far as glutathione that's new to me if it does.
Molybdenum aids the liver by breaking down toxins and removing them by activating enzymes which do such very effectively and thus helping the liver.
Last the star ingredient Phosphatidylcholine ! Once again aids in detoxifying and liver repair . But most importantly it allows delivery in to the cell the good stuff while removing the bad stuff. It literally transports glutathione in the cell. It is actually found on the outside of all cells to serve the function of delivery and removal ! So yes this mixed with olive and coconut oil is getting the help to the target ! Brilliant ! And hence the need for the syringes.
I take GHRP-2,,,,Ipamorelin and Cjc1295 for skin and general health improvement twice a year. Those at just***** 5mgs***** cost $75 to $100 and require sub-q injection. This is 3000 mgs total of glutathione for oral administration so think about that.
I think this is a must for anyone who has liver issues or concerns. Anyone who is undergoing medication that is harmful to your body. Or anyone who wants to improve their health by once in a while doing a good toxin cleaning (not to be confused with heavy metals). Whatever reason it is used for,,, the body will benefit and I highly recommend this. As it stands I know of no other way to get this much glutathione in your cells other than an IV. I hope this was helpful .", "label": 1}

I had tried every temporary paste, liquids, creams, cements and waxes on the market. One day I saw this at Walgreen's for $2.37 and surely did not think it could be any good at that price. It was 1/2 the price of every other remedy being sold. However, since it WAS so inexpensive I decided to try it and added it to the $15, latest Dentemp product I was buying.
When I got home I was not very smart because I broke out the $15 goo seeking instant relief. Well, just like the rest of these \"miracle\" products I went to bed but never slept due to the pain. At 5am, nearly in tears, I broke out this Dent's Toothache Gum after prying out the Dentemp cement.
What happened next was as close to a true miracle as anything I had experienced in 50+ years. Within 1 minute the 3 month toothache was gone. VANISHED! I slept like a baby and was able to eat and drink hot/cold items once again.
If you are on Amazon looking for a product to temporarily replace a lost filling or have an exposed nerve, I absolutely pray you look no further than this review. I have no stake in this company or the vendor selling this item but yet this is the strongest 5 star review I have ever written for any product, ever! I wish I did have a stake in the company because I would market this properly and would make a fortune. In fact, the ONLY con is that it is hard to find. Also, if I were the maker of this product I would offer a triple money back guarantee as a marketing tool because I know the return rate would be insignificant to the total sales that would increase immediately due to a triple guarantee.
If you are in pain, PLEASE stop looking at anything else. STOP! Go to Walgreen's if you live near one or have this delivered via overnight delivery because relief is only dependent on how quickly you can get this product in hand. Go to Google Shopping or Walgreen's website and read the reviews. At this price point you should buy several boxes. I don't want to sound crazy but it is a fact that many temporary, at home, dental remedies are not nearly as effective as they could be simply due to pressure from the American Dental Association. They don't have influence on the manufacturer's per se, but the lobby HARD to find ways to get the FDA to regulate the effective products. There are many products that I have come across via great reviews and purchased them only to get no relief at all. Subsequent reading educated me that the formulations had recently changed on these products but they still carried the same packaging, nae etc. The Dentemp product I mentioned at the beginning of this review is a perfect example of the ADA successfully lobbying that the old formulation was unsafe or should not be done without a dentist supervision.
Here's the bad news for those that don't find this product soon, or stock up now;
Dent's Maximum Strength Toothache Gum I am reviewing is the only product left on the market that has 20% Benzocaine. I can nearly guarantee that this product will be next to reformulate due to ADA's efforts on controlling benzocaine with this delivery method. If you are weary of my review and future prediction of a reformulation then it is simple. Don't stock up! Just go spend $2.37 at Walgreen's or buy it on Amazon and give it a try. If you are suffering, and if you are reading this review I know you are indeed suffering, then the price of this product is absolutely pennies if it works. Am I right? Spending $15 is one thing, but $2.37 is a no brainer (FWIW, I would pay $150.00 for this product if I had to. You get a ton of applications out of the one stick of \"gum\") So, try it. If you have the same nearly spiritual experience of relief that I had, you can go back and stock up after you try it.
For those that may find this product after the benzocaine has been eliminated or weakened, I am sorry for you.
Now I will get corny AND cliche. If this review leads even ONE human being to trying this product, then I will be satisfied. If that person returns and reviews it positively and it causes others to buy+review+lather, rinse, repeat then I will feel as if I never have to lead a little old lady across a busy intersection for the rest of my life.
This product will give you relief as good at your Dentist for $2.37 (or whatever you have to pay!)

They have a texture that's kind of akin to a very chewy caramel, but with a chocolatey/coffee-ish taste. Some people don't like the flavors but I am personally finding them to be pretty darn enjoyable and yummy. When you consume one, you don't feel like you're eating a vitamin/supplement/health gummy/etc. It really just feels like you're enjoying a chocolate-and-coffee-flavored candy bite. That's a pretty sweet deal - literally.
This is a fabulous life hack. Just one of these babies has 100mg of caffeine - almost exactly the same amount as a cup of cawfee. But it works five times faster and you don't need to gulp down eight+ ounces of hot liquid. These chews are awesome and I happen to think they taste fabulous. So far, I love the \"Dark Chocolate Orange\" and \"Dutch Cocoa\" varieties. Obviously, I bought them for the energizing effects, not the flavors, but this is a nice bonus!
I was also really impressed by all of the other bells and whistles this product touts. You would expect a coffee gummy to be bad for you, junky, and low-quality - just loaded with chemicals and corn syrup and a million calories. Well, not these. They're merely 25 calories a chew (you only need one, maybe two tops) and are made with high-quality ingredients like cane sugar, organic cocoa butter, and ginkgo biloba extract. Nice, right? Additionally, these 'lil nuggets are dairy-free, vegan-friendly, gluten-free, non-GMO (awesome), all natural, and are even made in the USA!
I was also shocked (in a good way) by the nutritional value - it seemed too good to be true! Here are some of the vitamins/minerals they contain, as well as what percentage of your daily value just one cube provides. The breakdown goes like this:
Riboflavin - 70%
Niacin - 60%
Vitamin B6 - 60%
Vitamin B12 - 120% (!!!)
That's impressive. So, not only are you getting your coffee in the form of an easy-to-consume, small, low-calorie, yummy treat, but you also get a shot of some essential vitamins.
I hope they continue making these. I can't wait to put them to further work.
Stay caffeinated, my friends! And if you're looking for a faster alternative (or supplement) to your morning cup 'o Joe, give these a try.
PS Another way this helps you get out of bed? It's something to look forward to...kind of in a similar way that one might look forward to their morning cup of coffee, BUT without the work. It's instant gratification, and in many ways. You just pop open the package and enjoy a sweet treat, AND you get some energy within minutes. This is a winning product. I highly recommend!", "label": 1}

First, it does use a UV light and could potentially eliminate some of the *CAUSES* of odors like certain bacteria by k killing germs in any air that cycles through it. But that UV light is, at least by default, one that only produces 254.3nm so does not produce ozone. This means it won't really directly eliminate odors by actually binding with the particles in the air that cause them but can only do so indirectly by killing things. There do seem to be some bulbs that can fit it that do produce ozone however, just these are third party and not official with the official ones not offering such an option. On one hand, it is worth remembering that ozone can be as bad for you as it is to other things, but on the other hand, a 3.5W lamp wouldn't produce very much and should dissipate very quickly unless you're pretty much right on the thing (which you shouldn't be anyway!) Since this is third party only (with most options not even shipping within the same country) I'm a little disappointed given the intended purpose of this (which is largely to clean the air -- especially of odors -- where ozone+UV would be much more effective than UV alone.)
I definitely have to make a major complaint about its fan though. I almost wonder if I got a unit with a bad fan or something because it makes a fairly awful noise. It's not even so much that it's loud as that the noise is very obnoxious. I think maybe the fan must vibrate too much or something, but I'm not really sure what exactly the cause of the noise is. The fan doesn't seem to push as much air through as it really should (especially to be truly effective in even a relatively small room) so I'm definitely not happy with this part of its design at all. Perhaps a \"blower\" type fan would be better for this sort of task. One thing that can definitely be said though is that it doesn't push enough air to cover even a relatively small space very well and I wouldn't expect it to be terribly effective in anything bigger than a closet. Perhaps if placed right over the sources of odors (like in the case of a litterbox for example) it might still be useful, but otherwise it probably isn't. Of course, such a dinky fan has very little static pressure and they couldn't put any sort of filter over it, so it will pick up dust fast and tear up fairly quickly if placed too near to a litterbox anyway. As obnoxious as its noise is, it might make a cat decide not to use the litterbox if it were there anyway.
I also wonder a bit about the light leakage. Near to the top it has plastic which carries some of the light intentionally and may be opaque to UV ranges so perhaps ok, but the holes at the top do not filter the light at all and nothing particularly blocks it, so the top lets the light through unfiltered. Perhaps at this level it is not enough to matter. I really can't be sure and so I may just be nit-picking here, but I do think they should have angled the output so the air could go around but the light would not given the potential for harm from the UV light.
EDIT: The more I use it the more I think it doesn't even work stock. I've been sniff-testing it and get nothing really. 253.7nm light seems to produce something in the air that has a bit of a smell. Not ozone (officially it breaks down ozone in fact) like 185nm light does, but all my real 253.7nm lamps produce a very strong and not very pleasant smell (which, if anything, is actually worse than the smell of ozone IMO.) This, however, does not seem to. I temporarily swapped in a bulb being used by a sterilizer that matched the specifications of this thing and suddenly could smell something obvious. So I think the bulb that comes with it may just simply not be very good. Most likely it requires one of those third party bulbs even to really do the job it claims to do.
The incredibly obnoxious noise the thing produces is enough reason not to like it however. The more I try to use it the more it begins to drive me crazy.", "label": 0}

I did find a way of dealing with the task. I bought an electric Waterpik flosser. I must say, that flosser has entirely improved my oral cleaning habits. It's like a power wash for your teeth and it does an excellent job of loosening food stuck in-between teeth.
As I travel often, I don't have the luxury of taking such a large home flosser unit with me. My morning routine in my hotel room consists of standing in the mirror with floss in hand. When I am away from home, I absolutely miss my Waterpik.
I actually came upon this portable flosser by accident and it took me by surprise. I never knew these things existed or even COULD exist. If you have ever used a home water flosser, you know that they are very powerful and push a hard stream of water against your teeth. I never imagined that could actually be replicated in a wireless product.
In fact, when I ordered this portable water flosser, I didn't actually think it would work. However, at best, this would be an interesting experiment for me and if I was dissatisfied with the way it performed, I would ship it back to Amazon.
The flossing unit is rather large. It's bigger than holding a full tube of toothpaste in the hand. It also has a bit of weight to it. Of course, something like this would need a heavier motor and it would have to be large enough to hold a considerable amount of water.
It came out of the box partially charged so I was able to test it immediately. This flosser included a USB charging cable but you will need to supply your own USB charging brick. You can use one of the small 5 volt adapters that come with most mobile phones. I used one of my iPhone charging bricks.
The flosser also comes with 4 flossing tips designed for different types of floss applications. Honestly, I don't know much about what tip does what, but I immediately went for the standard tip as that is what I use in my Waterpik home flosser.
This brings me to a concerning point: I am not certain where I can buy replacement tips or if they are standardized across the board. For instance, I found that Waterpik tips do not fit in this flosser. I am hoping the industry has set some sort of standard for the size of these tips so that they can easily be replaced. The good news is, these tips do last a long time before having to be replaced.
When inserting one of the tips into this flosser you simply need to insert and then twist the tip to lock. The included instructions do a great job of illustrating the process. The next step is to fill the reservoir with water, secure and turn it on.
Here is the point where I became very impressed...
This is very powerful for a portable flosser. The stream of water that ejected from the tip was forceful enough that it removed slivers of food I had stuck in my teeth from dinner. I mean, I look down in the sink and there they were! I did have to refill the reservoir more than once to do a complete job, but I knew this would not handle nearly as much fluid as my home unit.
There are different modes of strength that include Normal, Soft and Pulse. I always enjoy the pulsating action as it feels good against my teeth.
Bottom line: If you are thinking of a powerful home flosser, I would first recommend a Waterpik as they are more powerful and hold more water, However, that's not taking any merits away from the Misiki flosser. It's more than half the cost, is nearly as powerful, and boasts something that the Waterpik home units can't: the ability to be portable.
I can now take a powerful flosser with me on vacation. At last, I can ditch the string and enjoy the same flossing benefits on the road that I do at home. I am really impressed with how powerful this thing is. Recommended!", "label": 1}

I have purchased small kits in the past, the kinds with usually two - four screws and the screwdriver is concealed in a small tube that connects to your key ring. If not on the key ring, they always get lost, and trying to get the screws in with just that little screwdriver is a bugger for my hands. I wanted a cape that had tweezers to help stabilize the screws while inserting into the respecting holes in my glasses, and I wanted a longer screwdriver with variable heads that could help me efficiently install the screws and make my repairs. I have several pairs of tweezers, but they are more cosmetic styled and not really suited for the fine point work needed for holding the screws.
This case has it all, and more! There is a small, portable screwdriver you can keep in your pocket or purse, and the screwdriver kit is long, contains easily changeable heads, and it is ergonomic. I haven\u2019t carried it around with me in my pocket, but it could be used for EDC and leveraged for many different tasks if needed. The end stopper doesn\u2019t stay inserted into the main body of the handle, though, and does require you to secure it frequently while in use. For this reason, I would just stick with my leatherman-style multi tool for EDC. But, this is for eyeglass repairs, and it pairs well with the XSIATO kit.
The tweezers are easy to grip, and the long, fine tip allows convenient and precise control over the tiny screws. This tool can also be used for many other tasks, but I am keeping it dedicated to this repair kit. The magnetizing piece performs without fail for me when I am trying to magnetize or demagnetize the tip of the screwdriver heads, which helps in screw retention while in use. I have not had to use the nose pad repair tool, yet, but I have practiced with it. It was new to me, but easy to figure out, and will be convenient to have, although many of my glasses are new just coming with a built-in silicone nose pad on each side of the glasses.
Next, the screws: there are tons of them! That is the good, along with the fact that there are (14) - (15) different sizes and types. The problem I have with them, though, is that there are so many options, yet they are grouped and packaged together into four different packages. This has been a little frustrating, as I would have preferred them to be better separated and organized. When I need a particular type of screw, I was able to locate it, and its pair, but it did take a while searching through the rest of the bag from which the first was located. I like to have order and be more organized, especially with such fine things like these screws, so I would have liked to see the case be built to allow more slots in for more size options and separations.
Finally, there is one more item that bugs me, probably the most, even more than the screw issue: the long, blue screwdriver and tweezers do not fit in the case. It is deceiving because both are no longer than the overall length of the case, which has a decent latch for keeping it closed, but there is a compartment or slor for the nose pieces or pads that shortens the length of the inner, longer slot where they could fit. Fortunately, the slots are structured by removable plastic inserts, which allows the two tools to fit. The problem, with this, however, is that now you can\u2019t get the magnetizer tool to fit! Maybe everything fits, and this is just operator error, and I\u2019m failing at my Jenga skills. To even get close to making them fit, though, now the eye pad pieces will have to be mixed in with another supply slot. So, I use another case to keep all of these items contained. This isn\u2019t the end of the world, but as per the products marketing slogan on the packaging of \u2018Efficient\u2019 and \u2018Convenient\u2019, they could have improved this repair tool kit and made it a five star rating. Nonetheless, the supplies are solid, and have helped me fix two pairs of sunglasses, one pair of shooting glasses, and my wife\u2019s favorite pair of glasses. You won\u2019t go wrong with this kit, but just keep the organizational points in consideration.", "label": 1}

Here's what I like the most about this Antrolife Blood Pressure Monitor:
They really need to highlight in their description (not just in one of their many pictures that this device will operate in dual power modes, with the batteries or without batteries when you plug in the supplied USB type A/C power cord to the monitor and a charging port (either in you home or in your car) or as I did to test it out I plugged into my PC while writing this review.
I purchased a name brand (Omron) BPM years ago and the first thing I found out was that the cuff was on the small to medium size so I had to purchase their separate large cuff. So this was a big deal to me since with the Antrolife cuff it is considered a universal fit with the arm's circumferences ranging from 8.66\" (22cm) to 16.54\" (42cm) which runs from small to large. So for the people with larger arms you may want to measure prior to ordering but this cuff will fit the majority of individuals.
Their are some discrepancies between their user manual and Amazon webpage for their warranty and number of available readings you can store in memory so here they are: although their User Manual states that they have a 1 Year Worry-Free Warranty and any problems within 12 months result in a replacement or refund (they also have a folded insert in the box which makes it a little more confusing by stating a Mfg. Warranty of 1 year and an Extended Warranty of 3 years). Their Amazon page states that they provide a Worry Free Warranty of 36 month and in another location on the webpage it states an extended 36-month warranty (so I'm really confused by all of this change in wording) which covers almost anything (malfunction, measurement inaccuracy, mechanical damage, and much more) so if you meet their criteria then just contact them at by addressing your email to \"support at Antrolife dot com\". \"You can get a free replacement or refund quickly and easily, just contact us\", also with your warranty claim remember that you will need a copy of your Amazon order invoice and Amazon Order I.D..
As for the number of stored individual readings that can be stored in this monitor the manual states 2 x 90 the Amazon webpage states that it will hold up to 99 for each of the two individuals tracked on this monitor so it appears that the manual is just out of date vs their current sales literature and actually each of the contradictions have been improved upon between the User Manual and the Amazon webpage which is another Plus for picking this up. Also the soft storage carrying bag although a nice thought really needs to be a little bit larger to comfortably hold the device, the cuff, the usb type C power cord and the manuals (I like to keep everything together).
I also checked its' accuracy against another recent BPM that I acquired and both are within 2 digits apart from each other so I consider that very accurate for this BPM since it's hard to take 2 measurements with the same device and come up with the same exact numbers, it just doesn't happen that often.
Setting up the User as No. 1 or 2 and setting the Date, Time, Voice (On or Off) which uses someone with a female Chinese accent (personally I would have used a voice with a neutral accent but that is just me) and Unit of Measure went well although their instructions leave out a few details but it is easily figured out once you get started. The biggest drawback I can see with this device and honestly I don't understand is why you're asked to input the date and time into the device if they aren't displayed on their monitor either while taking your measurement or when you're thumbing through your past Memory listing (they do list them in numerical order starting with 1). Although I think they've got a great BPM device I would really like to know the day and time of each memory stored in this device so for me, although not an issue for everyone, had they included that information showing somewhere on the device I would have rated this with 5 Stars but I consider this a pretty big deal so that's why I removed one Star from my rating...
Would I still buy this, the answer is \"Yes\", mainly due to the dual power modes that makes it so very flexible to take on my trips and not worry about the batteries dying on me...", "label": 1}

Luckily, you can get them direct from the manufacturer through Amazon now. They are perfect for small spaces such as apartments, offices, classrooms etc. My wife uses one in her grade school classroom and we have two at home in our two bedroom apartment. They take up zero floor space so that makes them better than most air purifiers right there. You do want to avoid putting anything directly in front of it though, as you want good air flow going to it. You can swivel the plug-in so that it can be plugged in upright as shown in the pictures or upside down. It works equally well in either position and its handy for when there is something above the plug-in preventing you from plugging it in right side up. Also, if you have plug-ins that are getting worn out and heavier things won't stay plugged into them, I've found that plugging it in upside down helps it say plugged in better.
It does make a bit of noise due to the impeller fan inside the unit. This noise is very quiet when you first get it, but gets louder and more high pitched when the unit is about to quit working. But, usually, you can make it work again by buying just the inside bulb from the manufacturer's website and replacing that part. You can tell when it is about to go out also by the light on the front. It is usually blue but sometimes turns orange when it needs a new bulb. The bulbs last for 12 months to two years, sometimes even three depending on how much you keep it plugged in and on how dirty your air is. The unit uses about 6 watts per hour so it's pretty energy efficient.
It seems to really help, especially with airborne mold. I've had farmers lung or lung infections before I started using air purifiers like this so I tend to be rather sensitive to mold. Now that I'm using these, I've noticed that I have far less trouble with mold in my lungs. It also helps get rid of that musty smell that some places have (which is due to mold). My wife's classroom used to smell musty and she and the kids would have the sniffles often, even when they didn't have the flu but not anymore now that she's got one of these in her room.
As for odor reduction, I can't say that it really does a lot. It kind of depends on how strong the odor is and whether the thing that is producing the odor is still present after a while. If something makes a strong odor but is then removed, it does seem to make the smell go away sooner. If the item that is making the odor stays in the room, these things can't keep up with it. It doesn't release any smells of its own, so it won't mask the bad odor with anything like an air freshener does. If you do use air fresheners though, I recommend keeping the air freshener and this Germ Guardian as far apart as you can because I'd imagine that making the Germ Guardian try to clean the particles of air freshener chemical out of the air will wear the Germ Guardian out faster.
The best part is that it uses blue light technology to kill mold and germs with ultraviolet light rather than ozone production. Air purifiers that use ozone production actually wind up contributing to indoor air pollution and can make you just as sick as the stuff you are trying to clean out of the air. I've tried ozone producing air purifiers in the past, and they gave me terrible headaches. I don't have that problem with the Germ Guardian.
If you notice in a lot of restaurants and hospitals, this UV light technology is used there as well. With the Germ Guardian, the fan draws air towards the bottom of the unit, flows it past the UV light and back out the top of the unit. Though it makes the unit make a little noise, it's better than the passive UV filters since it processes the air in the room more efficiently and takes less time to clean the air column in the room. If you use it in conjunction with a fan (either on the ceiling or floor) it can work even faster, especially if it is a floor fan and you can blow the room's air towards the unit. This is especially helpful in rooms that are approaching the upper limit of the unit's capacity which I think is something like 50 - 70 square feet.", "label": 1}

The key teeth will rip through purse linings, poke your thigh from the inside of your pants pocket, or scrape little bloody lines into your chest, if you were to wear it on a lanyard or ball-joint necklace or something.
There IS a horizontal hole in the handle, if you turn it sideways to look at why the frack the keys can't fold into the handle, despite there being plenty of room. So it's plausible to run a necklace-like-thing thru that hole and wear your keys around your neck. But, if you were going to do that anyway, just put the keys on the necklace directly. There are much better \"wing nut\" shaped silicone key-head covers that will give the weak of grip more, well, grip. Without being so tremendously difficult to set up and switch out.
Plus, this product is intended for those with low dexterity, to HELP them hold small objects, right? So why is it designed so that, to put the keys into the holder, you have to crank a tiny handle to unscrew the central metal screw-threaded rod, causing you to immediately drop other side's tiny hexagonal nut, which you didn't notice earlier, that really SHOULD have been glued into place - like, why leave that thing loose?? AND THEN you have to hold each of your keys, to be inserted, verrryyyy carefully, in the upper part of the handle. And continue to hold the other side's nut in place - at least they designed the plastic handle to have a correctly-sized hexagonal hole to HOLD the nut, at that spot! - while trying to poke the threaded rod thru the tiny holes in the tops of your keys, and then also successfully thru the tiny holes in the top of this key-holder??? Or, my favorite silly maneuver, hold the handle sideways, resting the nut in its little cut-out with gravity's help, feeling like you've finally figured out the correct way to use this mysterious object. And THEN, you immediately miss with the threaded rod, shoving the nut out of its cut-out and back onto the floor. Where you just picked it up from. :P If someone needs their ego deflated or brought down a peg, seriously, buy them this thing as a gag gift, and watch them curse your birth.
So once you've placed all the keys into their slots, is that it? Have you succeeded against this formidable puzzle? Not at all! You have to go through this rigamarole every time you want to change a key! And what about if you want to USE a key? Ho-ho! Well! You've fallen right into its trap! Because if you want to make just ONE key stick out forward, and the others not in its way? Ya know, to place it into a lock? You have to unscrew the central rod, juuuust a teeny bit, to decrease the pressure of the plastic sides on each key, making them all fall limp and perfectly lined up. Now! NOW, you have to pick one, and hold it between your fingers, to point it straight forward so you can actually poke it into a lock, and THEN, you have to RE-tighten the little crank! And hope you don't drop the tiny nut on the backside again! And if you have to use two keys in quick succession? As in the situation of having a storm door locked, and a solid door behind it? Then you have to REPEAT that process! Just... why. Did nobody stress-test this design? This is nearly useless, even for someone WITH good hand strength!
That's my second complaint - someone with really good fine motor control like myself struggled to get this thing set up. Someone with weak hands trying to buy this thing for themselves would have a much harder time. And not every person with disabilities has access to an able-bodied person who can do the difficult things for them! That's important to keep in mind when designing accessibility products.
The only reason I didn't give this product one star is because the metal bits are actually very well machined, and it turns very nicely. Perhaps it can find new life as a fidget toy for a middle schooler, to spin the crank back and forth. I sure won't be giving this to my grandmother to try to struggle with, with her arthritic hands! :/", "label": 0}

The company does not stand by their defective scales. If their scale decides to be defective after the 1 year warrantee they do not offer any solutions to the problem. No fix, repair, or replacement. They tell you "Sorry, there is nothing we can do." Please see the photos of the customer service transcription telling me their item IS defective yet there is nothing they will do because it is "outside of the 1 year warrantee".
There is a forum thread in their online community that is 21 pages long of people with this same issue, yet they still refuse to take responsibility for it.
I purchased this scale in 2014 and hardly used it. By hardly used it, I mean that I hardly ever used it. I purchased a Salter scale years before this one that was far more accurate, by the way. The Fitbit Aria was always at least 7-10lbs off and the measurement varied every single time anyone weighed themselves. This left me using the Salter every time I weighed myself, which was every morning for about two years. The only time I used the Aria was when I wanted to log my weight in the app which was maybe bi-monthly for about a year. I ended up getting an Apple watch and no longer used the Fitbit. From that point on the Aria was used maybe a few times a year. The scale had VERY LITTLE USE. I wouldn't be as upset if it had actually taken a beating and/or been a workhorse.
Fast forward to yesterday (June 2018) and I decide to weigh myself on my very expensive Aria so I can keep a visual of my weight because I'm starting a workout program in hopes to 'tighten up' a bit. Well, that's a no-go! I get "measuring">"step off">"thinking">Err" every single time! So naturally I refer to Dr. Google to see if there is something I can fix. I land on Fitbit's 21 page community thread about this exact issue and follow the recommended advice; remove batteries, wait 15 sec, etc - which mind you worked for no one in this thread. It didn't help, still the same "err" message.
I decide to start a live chat, as mentioned above, and I am informed that they won't help me because I'm out of my one year warrantee and they don't offer to repair/fix this defect within their item. So here I am with a $129 dollar decoration piece. Because it's defective it. Because the company refuses to take responsibility for their defective item. Because I was stupid enough to buy it.
One could argue that I could have chosen to use it heavily for the years I owned it so I shouldn't complain. Either way a company should recognize a common defect with their item and at least offer to repair it. And if I pay $129 for a scale I do expect it to LAST and be good QUALITY. I mean sheesh, I paid $39 for the Salter weight/water/body fat scale that has taken a whooping and is still going strong after 7+ years. How could I not expect to spend $129 and get a better longer lasting product?
To recap:
-I purchased a Fitbit Aria scale in 2014
-It was HARDLY used (proof was seen by CS rep in my account)
-In 2019 I'm told by a CS rep my scale is now defective (it did work for 3+ years)
-Fitbit refuses to offer even a fix/repair for it
-I have to throw it out - goody bye $129
Please consider your purchasing options wisely, don't throw your money away like I did. I had to leave this review because if I had know 5 years down the road the scale would become defective I would have never purchased it. I don't think anyone buys a scale to use for just a few years, usually it's for a lifestyle change and will be used for many years to come. Not the Aria, get all your exercise and dieting in within 4-5 years before the defects happen.

My original review is below. I can't believe Ive been shaving with this for a year already! I was prepared for it to be disposable since the whole thing cost less than genuine Norelco Replacement blades. But I'm still on my original set and they still cut good.
Some things I've seen in the last year I don't like:
A piece fell off the back of the shaver head. It is cosmetic only as it doesn't affect the hair collection. It's just annoying that it did. But replacement heads that are only about $15 will fix that issue.
Another thing I don't like is how little hair can be stored before it needs to be emptied. I have to empty it after everu shave or it doesn't collect any more and it just gets all over me. Sometimes if it's been a day or two I have to empty it during the shave.
Those are minor issues and since it has worked so good and still cuts well a year later, I wish I could give it another star. Seriously don't worry about if it's a decent product. It is!
Original Review June 2020
Ever since I started shaving around 35 years ago, I've been using Norelco Shavers. The last several I've bought were Waterproof and came with systems to automatically charge and clean my razor. I didn't think I could get any better than that. The reality is they didn't work so well. My first auto clean razor didn't last even a year. The mechinism part that does the cleaning broke. So I bought a different one here on Amazon. While it does still clean and charge my razor, the price of the replacement heads have been getting more and more expensive. Currently their replacement heads are nearly $60. I tried some sold here in Amazon thay are obviously after market heads. While they are sharp they don't hold the heads in place right so they end up snagging your hair. That is the state I found myself in. Pay $60 for genuine Norelco heads for my razor that's now 5 years old or try something else. I found this razor for just over $40. I was skeptical as I've been conditioned to belive that one has to spend $200+ on a razor if you want it to work. But at only $40 it's about the price of the cheap replacement blades and I figured it couldnt be worse than those.
So here's what I think of this new razor!
I love the shape. At first glance it seemed weird. But I had already been holding my Norelco this way instead of using the handle which isn't very ergonomic.
The shave is awesome! I haven't had a shave this close in years. And since the heads are actually smaller in diameter they even reach right up to my nose which the Norelco really struggled to do.
I like it that this one is also Waterproof so I can wash it under the faucet.
Some concerns I have:
The charging cable is a very tight fit. And since the razor is so light compared to my Norelco, I was genuinely afraid I was going to break it when I plugged it in to shave. It did finally go in and on the plus side, I can charge it anywhere since it uses a standard USB plug.
As I mentioned it is very light. Much lighter than a Norelco. Does that mean it's cheap and will break soon? I don't know. So far it's a champ. If it breaks soon, I'll be back here to post an update.
This model has a built in led light. It's supposed to make it where you can shave in the dark. First, I don't generally shave in the dark. Second, I don't think they give enough light to make a difference. It would be better if that energy was saved so the shaver could go longer in between charges.
This shaver comes with more attachments than any I've ever seen. Honestly I won't be using most of them.
Some of these are advertised as head Shavers for those who prefer to go bald. While I'm sure it would work great for that, don't worry if you want to only shave your face. It works great as a face shaver.
In sum up, I can't believe I was able to be shaved so well by a razor that is so inexpensive. Even if it only lasts 6 months, and I have to buy a new one, it's less expensive than Norelco. I think I'm done with the big name brand. I know their razors don't cost so much to make. So I'm tired of making them rich and having to shave with dull blades too long since I cannot afford to drop $60 every 6 months.
I'd buy this again and I'll reccomend it to friends!", "label": 1}
{"sid": 3767, "id": 294297, "interval": [900, 1000], "len_words": 762, "len_tokens": 994, "text": "Let me note up front that I don't have a bald head, and I won't be testing this for bald head shaving. I'm testing it as a shaver for the face.
Like many of you who are reading this, I've used rotary blade cordless shavers for decades--mostly Norelco. These always feature three floating heads. I've always thought there must be something magical about three heads because that's what everyone presents :-)
I've tried shavers like this with 5, 6, even 7 heads. Now we have one with 8 heads. Crazy. What's crazier is that the basic shver isn't changing--just the cutting head attachment. That means that there isn't a more powerful motor turning all those heads, and there isn't more torque. And in turn, that means that each head has less power to cut through difficult beard/hair. It feels very much like a marketing idea (look! more heads!) and not one well thought on in terms of performance.
And I can tell you--haveing used all these different variants with differing numbers of heads--that the eight head model is certainly not any better than the 5 head model. And neither is actually as good as my entry level Norelco 3-headed model for shaving. And compared to my high end 3 head Norelco it isn't even close (but since that costs about 5 times what this one does, that's not fair). Anyway, the shaver is capable of providing an OK shave, but I'm not convinced all those extra heads are doing much to improve things.
Another annoyance is that there's very little reservoir under the cutting heads for shaved hair (see photos). This means you'll need/want to wash the head (it's water immersible) after each shave. And, more significantly, the middle head of the eight doesn't pop up. To remove it, you have to twist it off. It's a bit of a pain--and there's even less room under this head for hair than any of the others. Having used shavers like this before, I can tell you that that gets old pretty fast.
The last issue I have with the cutting heads is that there's no obvious way to replace them without simply replacing the entire shaving head assembly. So this may well become a disposable item after the cutting heads get dull. Oh, and these shaving heads don't (in my experience) last as long as those from Norelco--so you will wind up wanting to replace them.
In the kit you get:
** Eight head cordless shaver with LCD readout of charge remaining (and time used)
** Noise hair trimmer attachment
** Hair clipper attachment
** Two face cleaning attachments
** Some cheap length guides for the hair clipper attachment
** Charging cable (requires USB-A power source)
The non-shaver attachments are a mixed bag. On the plus side, the nose hair trimmer works very well. This is in contrast with the nose hair trimmers that come with clippers, which are worthless. The nose hair clipper here works as well as dedicated nose hair clippers I've used. On the minus side, the hair clipper is very poor--it operates at a low speed and struggles with any amount of hair. It's not very useful. The face cleaner attachments are probably OK, but I can't imagine using them.
On the whole, I'd consider this a decent kit useful for shaving your face and for nose hair removal. The remaining attachments are, in my opinion, not very useful. While it does a good job of shaving out of the box, my experience with these shavers is the shaving heads will get dull over time, and there's no clear replacement path.
Pros:
** 8 head shaver does a decent job on face
** Nose hair clipper works well
** Li-Ion battery: 1.5 hours charge for 90 minutes run time
** Comfortable in the hand
Cons:
** Hair trimmer doesn't work well
** Face cleaning attachments are not very significant
** Shaver doesn't provide much room for hair and will need to be cleaned after each shave
** Middle head of shaver attachment difficult to remove for cleaning
** No obvious replacement path for heads on shaver attachment--lifetime may be short
** Eighth (central) head in shaver assembly does not float like outer heads
Note that this same shaver under various names on Amazon. Shop around for price.
The shaver is branded as 4D WD-8860. The same manufacturer that makes this kit, makes shavers with differing numbers of heads. (And the attachments, including the shaver heads, for these models are interchangeable). I Shop around for price. Also consider whether you want 5, 6, 7, or 8 heads, remembering that with each head you add, you have less torque (power) per head.", "label": 1}

Licorice Root (Glycyrrhiza Glabra)
Licorice Root Benefits
Licorice root contains many anti-depressant compounds and is an excellent alternative to St. John's Wort. As a herbal medicine it has an impressive list of well documented uses and is probably one of the most over-looked of all herbal wonders. Licorice is useful for many ailments including:
Health benefits
Healing substances
Hundreds of potentially healing substances have been identified in licorice as well, including compounds called flavonoids and various plant estrogens (phytoestrogens). The herb's key therapeutic compound, glycyrrhizin (which is 50 times sweeter than sugar) exerts numerous beneficial effects on the body, making licorice a valuable herb for treating a host of ailments. It seems to prevent the breakdown of adrenal hormones such as cortisol (the body's primary stress-fighting adrenal hormone), making these hormones more available to the body.
It has a well-documented reputation for healing ulcers. It can lower stomach acid levels, relieve heartburn and indigestion and acts as a mild laxative.
It can also be used for irritation, inflammation and spasm in the digestive tract. Through its beneficial action on the liver, it increases bile flow and lowers cholesterol levels.
Boosts immune system
Licorice also appears to enhance immunity by boosting levels of interferon, a key immune system chemical that fights off attacking viruses. It also contains powerful antioxidants as well as certain phytoestrogens that can perform some of the functions of the body's natural estrogens; very helpful during the menopause. Glycyrrhizinic acid also seems to stop the growth of many bacteria and of viruses such as influenza A.
Relieves pain and stress
It has an aspirin-like action and is helpful in relieving fevers and soothing pain such as headaches. Its anti-allergenic effect is very useful for hay fever, allergic rhinitis, conjunctivitis and bronchial asthma. Possibly by its action on the adrenal glands, licorice has the ability to improve resistance to stress. It should be thought of during times of both physical and emotional stress, after surgery or during convalescence, or when feeling tired and run down.
New research: Licorice hailed for its potential to fight tooth decay
Control respiratory problems and sore throat
Licorice eases congestion and coughing by helping to loosen and thin mucus in airways; this makes a cough more "productive," bringing up phlegm and other mucus bits. Licorice also helps to relax bronchial spasms. The herb also soothes soreness in the throat and fights viruses that cause respiratory illnesses and an overproduction of mucus, such as irritating coughs, asthma and chest infections.
Lessen symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia
By enhancing cortisol activity, glycyrrhizin helps to increase energy, ease stress and reduce the symptoms of ailments sensitive to cortisol levels, such as chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromylagia.
Combat hepatitis
Licorice both protects the liver and promotes healing in this vital organ. The herb's anti-inflammatory properties help calm hepatitis-associated liver inflammation. Licorice also fights the virus commonly responsible for hepatitis and supplies valuable antioxidant compounds that help maintain the overall health of the liver.
Treat PMS and menstrual problems
The phytoestrogens in licorice have a mild estrogenic effect, making the herb potentially useful in easing certain symptoms of PMS (premenstrual syndrome), such as irritability, bloating and breast tenderness. Although the glycyrrhizin in licorice actually inhibits the effect of the body's own estrogens, the mild estrogenic effect produced by licorice's phytoestrogens manages to override this inhibiting action.
Prevent heart disease
Recent studies have found that by limiting the damage from LDL ("bad") cholesterol, licorice may discourage artery-clogging plaque formation and contribute to the healthy functioning of the heart.", "label": 1}

St. Francis of Assisi actually never said, \"Preach the Gospel at all times. Use words if necessary,\" inasmuch as we like to say he did. Similarly, we can't prove that Swiss Reformed theologian Karl Barth (1886-1968) never said, \"We must hold the Bible in one hand and the newspaper in the other,\" because he actually never wrote those exact words. Indeed, there are statements made by these men that we might be able to piece together to suggest that they might have agreed with the quotes that have been attributed to them. Yet, the quotes themselves do not belong to these men.
Dubious quotes aside; with the newspaper in one hand, his fingers of the other hand searching the internet, George Weigel on speed-dial, his other book The Tide Is Turning Towards Catholicism being propped up by his kids like a lectionary, and his wife channel surfing back and forth from EWTN to CNN, author David J. Hartline, once again, proves that by preaching the Gospel at all times, and using words when necessary, the Catholic Church is still the world's light on hill.
Being an author and blogger it's always difficult for me to find time to read books other than my own or those I'm merely using for research. In fact, the only books other than my own, and writings by Popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI, that I've been able to read over the past two years have been books that I have been asked to review. As such, I've always had the pleasant opportunity with these books to depart from my own thoughts and enter into the reflections, stories, musings, and rants of my fellow Catholics. The Catholic Tide Continues to Turn by Hartline was no different in that regard. In fact, several sections of this book were so gripping that I couldn't put the book down, while other sections compelled me to just set it aside for a moment, so that I could contemplate upon what I had just read. There's nothing like unexpected daylight, unless you are trying to sleep in longer. :D
I was one of those Catholic converts that Hartline refers to in the fourth chapter his book, `The Number of Converts Keep Increasing', that, in spite of the child sex abuse scandal, we came home to the Catholic Church. In fact, his first book, The Tide is Turning Toward Catholicism was one of the books I read while I was still discerning my call to become a Catholic. What that book and several of his articles in the Catholic Times did for me back then in 2006 was to assure me that the Catholic Church truly is being protected, preserved, and promoted by Christ Jesus. Outside of Christ Jesus there is no other way to explain how the Catholic Church continues to exist and flourish after nearly 2,000 years in spite of we who call ourselves members and clergy of the Church. Outside of Christ Jesus there is other way to explain how the Catholic Church confounds the dark world every time that it triumphs over the demise that its critics had prophesied.
Continuing on with that same gift that he has to undercover fascinating news and events that the mainstream media wouldn't dare to consider covering, even if it knew how, Hartline offers us in his new book twenty chapters and nearly four hundred pages of stunning evidence and undeniable eyewitness accounts that God is still in the business of gathering the world into His Catholic Church and protecting it at all cost.
While I was reading chapter after chapter of this book, the phrase that kept ringing in my head was, `In Spite of'. I believe that anyone who reads this book, has to come away with seeing that there is truly a miracle taking place in the Catholic Church throughout the world today; and that this miracle is taking place `In Spite Of' those within and without the Church who are working so very hard to conform the Church to the world, and to even to destroy Her all together.
This isn't just a book for Catholics, and it wasn't written as such - evidenced by the appendix at the end that offers a brief introduction to basic Catholic beliefs. On the contrary, what we have here is a book that you want to buy for yourself to read, but you also want to make sure that you put either your own copy or a new copy in the hands of a non-Catholic - either someone who is interested, indifferent, or oppose to our faith. You also want to put a copy in the hand of lukewarm Catholics and those who have a distorted understanding of Vatican II. This uplifting book is definitely a must have book for anyone over the age of about 10, and anyone younger than 10 should have it read to them aloud.", "label": 1}

I originally tried this brand of sunflower protein a few years ago, when it came in a (larger, less expensive) package. I've reordered it several times, including once recently in this new package. Now that there are more protein powders on the market that meet my needs, it's no longer among my top favorites, but I still like it and suspect I\u2019lll order it again occasionally in the future for variety.
Taste: to me this tastes mild and pleasant, a little like untoasted sunseeds. It goes well with lots of different flavors, and unlike certain other types of unflavored protein powder (e.g. pea), I don't really find the taste is a limiting factor in how much can be added to food. I would not recommend it if you don\u2019t like the flavor of untoasted sunflower seeds, though.
Versatility: I use this mostly in smoothies and homemade no-bake protein bars/bites. I also like it in small amounts stirred into drippy nut/seed butter, added my homemade grain-free protein granola recipe (which I then dehydrate rather than baking), and in grain-free porridge. I wouldn't use it for \u201cprotein fluff\u201d or in unflavored nondairy milk, except maybe as a small portion of a blend of different protein powders. I haven't baked with it a lot, but it works great when I used it in chickpea flour crackers (for less than half the dry ingredients). I find it less versatile than most other types of single-ingredient plant-based protein powder due to its weird culinary properties (see below).
Color: this is a pale neutral gray when dry, and turns darker gray when mixed with water... and then sometimes gives other light-colored foods an unappetizing grayish-greenish tinge, presumably due to it being a sunflower-based product (like sunbutter). A couple of times when I put it in winter squash porridge, it looked so disgusting I almost couldn't eat it despite the taste being fine\u2014I suspect this had to do with the natural color of the particular squash plus the pH of the other ingredients. This powder also makes green smoothies kind of swamp-colored if I add more than a very small amount. In berry smoothies or chocolate recipes, though, the grayish color makes little difference.
Texture: this is a super, super fine powder\u2014finer than the other brand of 100% sunflower protein I've seen and tried, more like a very fine pea protein. It works great in smoothies. But in other foods, it can turn into a gummy lump when adding liquid to try to make a dough, batter, granola mixture, etc. For baking and granola, I find the weird textural properties to be the limiting factor in how much I can use. Definitely mix with other dry ingredients before adding to wet! Smallish amounts aren't usually a problem, and it's good blended with other protein powders. I wouldn't generally drink this in plain nondairy milk without adding other smoothie ingredients, as I don't like how it separates or sinks to the bottom of a thin beverage. I also don't think it would mix well in a beverage without using a blender, at least not to my preference.
Usability of package: I find this style of bag unusable for protein powder\u2014it's fussy to reseal, and because the powder is so fine, it flies all over. I cut the entire zipper off the bag and slowly, carefully transferred it into a good food storage jar. I'm not deducing any stars for this only because the annoyance is a one-time thing for me.
Overall experience: I've found Lekithos to have really good customer service when I've called or emailed with product questions or special order requests, including helping me figure out how to get free shipping on a large order. I do find it annoying that the prices seem to have gone up and there aren\u2019t the type of constant promotional deals that reduce the cost of other high-priced brands of protein powder. But I like the Lekithos products enough to order them occasionally when they're in my budget, although I don't think I'll order this sunflower one as often now that another brand has started making a lower-priced 100% sunflower protein.
Note: I review foods and supplements based ONLY on my liking of their taste and culinary properties, and whether they work for me. Not being an expert in nutrition or food safety, I have NO IDEA whether the health, nutrition, and safety claims made on the package are accurate so that doesn't come into my rating!", "label": 1}

It\u2019s simple but impactful and it has absolutely helped me drink more water throughout the day than I have in the past several years. I have tried pop-up reminders on my work computer (Outlook), apps on my phone, reminders from my FitBit and posted signs near my desk but nothing helps like this blinking* light. I already had several reusable water bottles so I sought an accessory; this item is much cheaper than \u201csmart bottles\u201d and doesn\u2019t need washed. :D
It fits on water bottles of various sizes. The reusable bottle I have pictured (I have 3 of them) has a diameter of almost 3 1/2\u201d (nearly 9cm) but the band also fits on a standard 16.9 oz. bottle and bottles larger than the one I typically use.
The light blinks every 30-45 minutes to remind you to drink. After you drink it will light up slowly and turn off slowly so that means it has recorded you drinking and reset the clock. It does not blink all night while you sleep; the instructions explain it will go through about 2 blinking cycles and as long as it doesn\u2019t sense movement, it will stop blinking until it senses movement again.
The only caveat is that you need to have the bottle in front of you in order to see it - it doesn\u2019t make any noise (like yell at you, which I would also likely respond to). So make sure you take the bottle from your work station to other rooms where you spend time outside of work. I work from home so I grab my bottle and move it at the end of the day.
This item is currently unavailable, but the last time that happened they had some available a few weeks later; I hope there are more available soon!!
*This product may not be ideal for those with light sensitivity or conditions like epilepsy because the light flashes quickly. If flashes about 10 times, then stops, and repeats that series twice more.*
Happy drinking!!
[[My additional tips for drinking more water from my research, if you\u2019re interested, since I have been dehydrated to the point of being off sick from work 4 times in the last year:
-Using a wide-mouth bottle may help you drink more during each session.
-Aim to drink somewhere around 80 ounces per day; some sources suggest at least 80 oz. or up to half of your body weight in ounces, so if you weigh 200 pounds, you should drink 100 ounces of water\u2026that\u2019s a lot.
-Water helps every function of your body, improves your skin texture, and can even impact your mood.
-Drink between meals on this schedule:
\u20148-16 oz. shortly after you wake up (helps rehydrate after your sleeping \u201cfast\u201d and activate digestion).
\u2014Drink 8 oz. before you get a shower (if you shower shortly after waking up, don\u2019t drink extra water; this helps keep blood pressure stable).
\u2014Drink BETWEEN, not with meals, so a half hour before and 30-45 minutes after you eat (a few sips is fine but otherwise you\u2019re filling up with unnecessary liquid and watering down your food; this is an \u201cEastern medicine\u201d technique). I will pick up my water bottle and pretend to drink so that the clock resets and I can drink again after I eat to aid digestion.
\u2014Drink water at the temperature you prefer; I like room temperature water because I have sensitive teeth. If you like ice water, use an insulated cup.
\u2014Drink 8 oz. of water 30 minutes prior to starting physical activities and then occasionally during activity, if you\u2019re able. You don\u2019t need really need an electrolyte drink/anything more than water unless you\u2019re working out very hard for an hour or more.
\u2014Drink 8 oz. right before you go to sleep; it shouldn\u2019t be enough to wake you up to urinate overnight.
\u2014Coffee does count towards your daily water goal, however, it is a diuretic, so make sure this is not your MAIN water source. Coconut water is very good, however, juice, soda, alcohol, etc. don\u2019t count. Drink some electrolyte water before you go to bed after drinking alcohol and also the next morning when you wake up.
\u2014I swear by electrolyte additives for water. Some have added B vitamins for energy (like \u201cLiquid IV\u201d) and others do not (like \u201cNuun\u201d tablets, which I love). They really help no matter how much water you drink per day and provide a little natural flavor to plain water; I typically don\u2019t use more than 1-2 per day.
-If you\u2019re starting a new diet, make sure to drink a lot of electrolyte-enhanced water when you start. This is due to losing water weight first and that\u2019s where your body holds salt and electrolytes. This is part of the \u201cKeto flu\u201d that occurs when you start that diet.]]", "label": 1}

I wasn't about to spend $2,000 to get a quality one like I have used in medical offices. I spent hours researching the different options and was thrilled to find this one. It has enough power and a 5 yr warranty to be comparable to the really expensive professional units. The unit is very bare bones, but it gets the job done and is very affordably priced.
I have been disabled for 4 years with ME/CFS after living in a moldy house that made me incredibly ill. I'm a member of an an online group (1,500 members) designed to help people with mold illness. I posted a link to this item after I bought mine in July 2015. I was very excited to find a product even those living on disability could afford and explained how I had benefited from detox foot baths over the years. Since I bought mine, dozens from our group have bought one too. We have been sharing our experiences over the past 6 months and have been absolutely astounded at how much this is helping everyone.
Once you have been exposed to toxic mold, it causes severe neuroimmune problems. We become incredibly sensitive to the tiniest of mold exposures, much like someone with a peanut allergy is sensitive to peanuts. We experience severe reactions that can include seizures, cognitive impairment, burning skin, difficulty breathing, vomiting, etc. We must follow strict mold avoidance practices to stay safe and if we accidentally have a mold exposure, the symptom spiral can knock us down for days or weeks. This machine seems to universally benefit those of us with mold illness by reducing the impact of an exposure significantly. Some people have reported that it has improved electromagnetic frequency sensitivity, amazing! So many people have had positive experiences and are seeing gradual reduced reactivity, cognitive improvement, and reduced symptoms overall with regular use of this machine that many more people are planning to order as soon as they can save up the money.
The focus historically on what these machines can do seems to be on heavy metal detox, but it seems clear from our group's collective experiences that it is very likely removing fat soluble toxins such as mold biotoxins.
We would love to continue emphatically recommending this unit as an affordable therapy to help people with mold illness. Unfortunately, we have had two people so far receive machines that were badly cross-contaminated with mold (returned machines that were resold) and made them very very ill. They have found out the hard way that the company charges a restocking fee and the item must be returned within 14 days. We have tried to talk to the owner and customer service to explain the seriousness of this problem. We cannot continue to recommend that people with mold illness purchase this product unless the company can guarantee we will not receive a returned product that could have been cross-contaminated in someone's moldy house. Like I explained, we are incredibly sensitive and this can cause a major health setback.
I would like to suggest that if you are going to charge a restocking fee you should then resell it minus the restocking fee as a discounted item labeled clearly as refurbished or previously returned. That way if people want to save money they can knowingly buy a used machine and the company would not have lost a penny since the reduced price plus restocking fee makes up the total cost.
The type of people interested in purchasing their own detox foot bath for home use are very likely to be chronically ill. There have been rave reviews in autism groups about the use of detox foot baths. People with fibromyalgia and many other illnesses are benefitting too. They may not yet realize that mold exposure is making them ill. My point is that reselling machines that have been cross-contaminated in toxic homes, could affect more than just us with identified mold illness. People who get a contaminated machine, may feel awful and not understand why if they aren't mold aware yet and blame it on your product. Your customers are sensitive. Please protect us by not reselling returned machines unless you discount them and make it clearly known they will be receiving a returned/refurbished machine. This is critically important. We are all very grateful you have offered such an excellent and affordable product that is helping us to heal. Please listen and respond to our concerns about this issue.
Update 7/21/16: I haven't heard of anyone getting contaminated machines in quite a few months. It looks like the company has fixed this issue.

I wasn't about to spend $2,000 to get a quality one like I have used in medical offices. I spent hours researching the different options and was thrilled to find this one. It has enough power and a 5 yr warranty to be comparable to the really expensive professional units. The unit is very bare bones, but it gets the job done and is very affordably priced.
I have been disabled for 4 years with ME/CFS after living in a moldy house that made me incredibly ill. I'm a member of an an online group (1,500 members) designed to help people with mold illness. I posted a link to this item after I bought mine in July 2015. I was very excited to find a product even those living on disability could afford and explained how I had benefited from detox foot baths over the years. Since I bought mine, dozens from our group have bought one too. We have been sharing our experiences over the past 6 months and have been absolutely astounded at how much this is helping everyone.
Once you have been exposed to toxic mold, it causes severe neuroimmune problems. We become incredibly sensitive to the tiniest of mold exposures, much like someone with a peanut allergy is sensitive to peanuts. We experience severe reactions that can include seizures, cognitive impairment, burning skin, difficulty breathing, vomiting, etc. We must follow strict mold avoidance practices to stay safe and if we accidentally have a mold exposure, the symptom spiral can knock us down for days or weeks. This machine seems to universally benefit those of us with mold illness by reducing the impact of an exposure significantly. Some people have reported that it has improved electromagnetic frequency sensitivity, amazing! So many people have had positive experiences and are seeing gradual reduced reactivity, cognitive improvement, and reduced symptoms overall with regular use of this machine that many more people are planning to order as soon as they can save up the money.
The focus historically on what these machines can do seems to be on heavy metal detox, but it seems clear from our group's collective experiences that it is very likely removing fat soluble toxins such as mold biotoxins.
We would love to continue emphatically recommending this unit as an affordable therapy to help people with mold illness. Unfortunately, we have had two people so far receive machines that were badly cross-contaminated with mold (returned machines that were resold) and made them very very ill. They have found out the hard way that the company charges a restocking fee and the item must be returned within 14 days. We have tried to talk to the owner and customer service to explain the seriousness of this problem. We cannot continue to recommend that people with mold illness purchase this product unless the company can guarantee we will not receive a returned product that could have been cross-contaminated in someone's moldy house. Like I explained, we are incredibly sensitive and this can cause a major health setback.
I would like to suggest that if you are going to charge a restocking fee you should then resell it minus the restocking fee as a discounted item labeled clearly as refurbished or previously returned. That way if people want to save money they can knowingly buy a used machine and the company would not have lost a penny since the reduced price plus restocking fee makes up the total cost.
The type of people interested in purchasing their own detox foot bath for home use are very likely to be chronically ill. There have been rave reviews in autism groups about the use of detox foot baths. People with fibromyalgia and many other illnesses are benefitting too. They may not yet realize that mold exposure is making them ill. My point is that reselling machines that have been cross-contaminated in toxic homes, could affect more than just us with identified mold illness. People who get a contaminated machine, may feel awful and not understand why if they aren't mold aware yet and blame it on your product. Your customers are sensitive. Please protect us by not reselling returned machines unless you discount them and make it clearly known they will be receiving a returned/refurbished machine. This is critically important. We are all very grateful you have offered such an excellent and affordable product that is helping us to heal. Please listen and respond to our concerns about this issue.
Update 7/21/16: I haven't heard of anyone getting contaminated machines in quite a few months. It looks like the company has fixed this issue. Many more people have purchased this machine and reported very good results. Thank you very much for addressing our concerns. This is a great product, changing to 5 stars.", "label": 1}
