Numi Organic Tea Decaf Black Vanilla, Full Leaf Decaf Black Tea, 16-Count Tea Bags (Pack of 3)

Numi Organic Tea Decaf Black Vanilla, Full Leaf Decaf Black Tea, 16-Count Tea Bags*****

This is a yummy and unique tea. It's sort of creamy (the real vanilla is a luscious taste), but not spicy like chai. It is absolutely perfect and I'm drinking it all the time because the taste is beyond belief, plus it's decaffeinated!

Indian Night is certified organic and contains fair trade certified organic Fatrikcherra Estate black tea, and organic vanilla beans---that's all---and oh, what an incredible combination! There are no oils or natural flavorings used at all, unlike many flavored teas, and thus no funny aftertaste. It is also kosher. This tea is sustainable in that all packaging materials are biodegradable and recyclable, the carton is made of 100% post-consumer waste, and cello wrap is not used. Numi says that all their tea bags "are made of natural fiber paper, not the trendy, "silky" see-though nylon tea bags". The reason it is called "full leaf" is that Numi black teas do not contain tea dust or fannings, which tend to make tea taste bitter; instead, they contain the full leaf, expanding when they are brewed, "releasing a robust and long lasting experience".

On the box, the manufacturer writes: "Inspired by an ancient Aztec culinary secret, Numi has chosen aromatic whole vanilla beans to blend with premium organic black tea. The tea grows in northern India on a bio-dynamic and Fair Trade garden surrounded by beautiful tropical forests. It is decaffeinated by a revolutionary organic CO2 process, called 'Effervescence', the only chemical-free method that does not extract flavor or health properties. As Indian Night steeps a vibrant bronzy hue, its seductive fragrance, flowery yet familiar, flirts with your senses. Magnificently smooth, exotic vanilla harmonizes with black tea for a creamy, rich and satisfying cup." This is a new (as of 2007) tea for Numi, and this description romantically describes the tea experience, and doesn't oversell it at all.

Highly recommended.

*****

I often buy tea bags on Amazon because I consistently find the brands and flavors I want at a good price. This tea is lightly flavored and tastes good with some milk in it. Because it is decaf black tea (not herbal tea), be sure to give it an adequate steep before drinking to ensure it is fully brewed.

Buy Numi Organic Tea Decaf Black Vanilla, Full Leaf Decaf Black Tea, 16-Count Tea Bags (Pack of 3) Now

I've ordered this 3 times so far! I have tried many teas and this is my favorite. I've got this on Subscribe and Save. I brew this well over 5 minutes. I even leave the tea bag in the cup until I finish drinking my cup of tea and it does not turn bitter. I add coconut milk and a little honey or turbinado sugar and it's a delicious drink I have throughout the whole day. I literally have gone through 3 packages (that's 48 tea bags) in 2 1/2 weeks. That's how much I love this tea. I am not one to write reviews but this is absolutely the best tea I've ever tried!!! The tea is a rich madagascar vanilla with a hint of malt flavor in the background.

This organic tea is excellent. I have now purchased this product at least three times. Having tried dozens of teas, to make ice tea, this is the best consistent flavor!

Want Numi Organic Tea Decaf Black Vanilla, Full Leaf Decaf Black Tea, 16-Count Tea Bags (Pack of 3) Discount?

I LOVE tea... Unfortunately my body will no longer tolerate my favorite kick-you-in-your-kidney's strong black teas. So I am in desperate search of strong full bodied DECAF teas that will actually make me want to get up in the morning!

This tea is one of the best I found around! If you love tea but can't take the caffine, and don't have the dinero to shell out $30 bucks for 2 ounces of the good stuff at tevanna then give this a try. The taste of vanilla is front and center but followed by a somewhat strong note of black tea that I terribly miss in your standard watered down tasting decaf fair. I have purchased from this seller 3-4 times without a hitch and am even considering doing auto ship on this particular product. Hope this helps if you were on the fence about trying it. I'm off to enjoy a cuppa!

SUPER SNOOZE with Melatonin & Valerian Root 100 Rapid Release Capsules

SUPER SNOOZE with Melatonin & Valerian Root 100 Rapid Release CapsulesThe supplement may help a little, but it didn't work wonders for me. The trouble I find with melatonin is that I fall asleep, but then wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep. Same thing with Super Snooze. I think I need to try a time released product.

This product is affordable, however, and I was impressed by the list of ingredients. Based on other reviews, I was quite hopeful... unfortunately it may not be the right product for me.

I think results vary greatly by individual, though. What works for one may not work for another, and vice versa. So it takes trial and error. :(

And especially its sleep products??? Why??? Because they work. Whenever I need vitamins or supplements will always look to Puritan's Pride first.

Lot of 2 Le Salon Sleeping Eye Mask Blindfold Soft Black

Lot of 2 Le Salon Sleeping Eye Mask Blindfold Soft Blacki like these ones alot better than the other ones i bought... but they are a bit small and tend to fall off in the middle of the night when i turn over... but they do hide the light quite well :)

In the beginning, there was a smell of formaldehyde as I continue to use it goes a way. I am keeping the second one as a back up as I live alone. I take naps during the day and also the light from various electrical appliances distract me and these mask really help me.

CobanTM Self-Adherent Wrap

3M Coban Self-Adherent Wrap 1581, 1 inch x 5 yard, 5-RollsMy foot doctor recommended I use this bandage after my toe surgery to wrap my toes. I now call it the 'magic bandage', my toes feel such tremendous relief once I wrap them in the morning and the remainder of the way, I do not know what I would do without them. It helps reduce the swelling and keeps my toes in place and makes them more comfortable for normal movement. Would recommend to anyone needing a secure and strong bandage! They are a little more expensive SO worth the money!

ResMed Mirage Quattro Full Face Mask Frame System (Small)

ResMed Mirage Quattro Full Face Mask Frame SystemI've used a number of different CPAP face masks, and so far this one works the best for me. The small one fits me best with the lower part resting in the crease between my lower lip and my chin. I have an average size woman's face, so unless you are a woman with a pretty large face, small will probably do. Medium would probably be fine for the average size man. The fit is comfortable and is adjusted with two velcro straps, one around the upper part of my head and one near the level of my mouth. After you adjust the velcro at the four locations, you can further adjust the mask for a good seal with a large plastic "screw" located near the forehead. The air hose attaches onto a swiveling attachment that allows you to toss and turn in bed while allowing the seal to remain firmly in place.

The head straps that fit this mask will wear out long before the mask itself. I guess the night-after-night pulling on the straps stretches them out, and the velcro becomes unusable. Once that happens, you need to buy new straps or they won't stay on. Plan on buying new straps about once a year. This mask does not come with the straps, but they are available here on Amazon as well.

Pros: I've used this mask for about 3 years. It is very sturdy and unlikely to wear out for a long time. It covers my entire nose and mouth which I prefer, because the partial masks that only cover your nose do not allow you to breath if you have a cold or are "stuffed up" due to allergies, etc. The full mask allows for mouth breathing if needed. The face cushion/gasket and forehead cushion are easy to remove and replace for cleaning. The swivel hose attachment works very well and is sturdy enough to last through years of pulling, tugging, and sleeping on without breaking.

Cons: Although I like this mask and will continue to use it, I have to voice my complaint about the face cushion/gasket made for it. I have found that the gasket material is so thin that it wears out pretty quickly. As soon as it becomes too soft or stretched, it no longer makes an adequate seal. I have to buy a replacement cushion about every 3 months. It helps to make sure your face is completely clean each night before wearing it and to clean the cushion/gasket once a week, but they still stretch out very quickly. I've used other styles of masks that had much thicker material that did not wear out like these do, but I didn't prefer the mask itself. I think the manufacturer should use a more durable gasket material, but then I guess they wouldn't sell as many, would they? Also, while the forehead cushion pops out quite easily to clean, it eventually starts to pop out too easily when adjusting the mask. I would like to see them made to fit a bit more securely in the mask.

If your insurance does not cover your CPAP mask, then my recommendation if you aren't sure which size to buy is to stop by a medical supply store and ask them to measure you for the correct size mask. It's just a little plastic thing they hold up to your face and use as a gauge. Then do your shopping here online. My medical supply store charges $190 for this same mask that is selling here on Amazon for $90, and they charge $55 for the same head strap that you can get here on Amazon for $28. So save yourself $127 and buy it on Amazon.

In conclusion, I would have to say the mask itself is well made and fits well. If the manufacturer would make a more durable and lasting gasket, I would have given it 5 stars.

Hearos Ultimate Softness Series Ear Plugs, 5-Pair (Pack of 6)

Hearos Ultimate Softness Series Ear Plugs, 5-PairI picked up a single pack of these from the `mart last month for a flight. This was going to be a longer flight and I wanted to try to get some sleep in on the way. I usually sit in the exit row for extra leg room but it is also as close to the engines as you can get. Per each pack, these are comparably priced to what you could pick them up locally, but notice you are getting about 30 pairs for currently around $9 so they break down to $0.30 each, not that bad.

These really are incredibly soft and comfortable and after a couple moments of having them in you forget you are using them. Simply roll it up, stick it in your ear and it expands creating a good sound barrier. You won't get complete silence, for that get noises cancelling headphones, but for the flying, these are much better than what the airlines could ever give you and perform well. The package states these have a 32 decibel noise reduction rating. Although this is a multi-pack, you can easily find this brand at most big box stores locally for roughly the same price. Good product and very satisfied with the results.

Jarrow Formulas 5-HTP

Jarrow Formulas 5-HTP 50mg, 90 CapsulesI was in the fight for my life...because anxiety, depression and a form of PTSD were breathing down my neck, my constant companions. I had become debilitated with these diseases. The thought of driving caused high anxiety. Going down the cereal aisle brought on panic attacks like I'd never seen-so much so, that grocery shopping was ruled out. Going to a restaurant with loved ones became a chess match of finding the perfect seat. Being around other people was draining beyond words, and putting together words to even talk to people was a TASK. My life was on hold because my mind was caving in on me.

I started taking Min-Chex to calm my adrenals. It helped a bit. But I wanted to see what life would be like without this monkey on my back. Saw a pharmacist who's also a clinical nutritionist. He suggested the 50mg size of 5-HTP. I bought Pure Encapsulations brand. I started taking it twice a day, 2 capsules at a time. Slept better.

Increased my dosage. By week two, I was blown away by it: IT WAS WORKING.

For example, during one particular week, I joined a gym (yes, surrounded by people!), saw an attorney and did about two other moveforwardwithlife things. That same week, I noticed that colors looked brighter, music sounded richer. It brought me to tears. Visited the pharmacist just to thank him. 'The fog is lifting, isn't it?' (More tears.)

I came back from the dark side of the moon.

And I have not been without my 5-HTP since.

PS

The people closest to me, including my therapist, noticed the difference in me. It's not that HTP suddenly made my life magically improved. But what it DID do was clean off the windshield so I could see clearly. I thought the filthy windshield I was gazing through was real. It wasn't.

The pharmacist told me the 5-HTP worked faster than St. John's Wort, so I was glad he put me in this direction. He said I'd need to take a strong, potent B vitamin with it for it to synthesize correctly. (Not pregnant, but I started taking Rainbow Light Pre-natal Vitamins. Of all the multi's I've tried, I like Rainbow Light the best. They work great & give me energy. Good price on Amazon, too. I've even gotten other family members on RL vitamins-senior, men's and women's regular versions.)

Anyway, I found the Jarrow brand when I was trying to find a cheaper but still effective brand compared to Pure. Amazon has the best price I have found. I buy in 3s-1 bottle open, 2 on the shelf.

I currently take 3-5 dosages a day, of two 50mg capsules. The dosages change based on stressful or hormonal times (yes, ladies, I've found that it's great to take during the 2 weeks before your cycle, helps with the mood changes).

I once bought the 100mg capsule, thinking I was saving money, but the capsule size was too strong and I slept too much.

SIDE EFFECTS

-it makes me slightly drowsy. Since I take it throughout the day, I have become used to it-it lasts about an hour. And honestly? I can live with an hour of feeling a little sleepy if it gives me my life back!! No brainer. (Lol)

-appetite reduced

-brighty colored, movie-like dreams

NOTE: if you believe you have bipolar symptoms, you may want to look into lithium orotate. I do not have BPD but have investigated it for others in my life.

Like most people I started out with the best (Jarrow) when experimenting with 5-HTP but for some reason got curious and began to experiment with cheaper (and lesser quality brands).

I am relatively a newbie to the supplement industry (only about 2 years in) so I figured I should try other products to get my feet wet so to speak.

After experimenting with Natrol (which is good for some herbs but not 5-HTP particularly) and other brands it turns out that Jarrow is indeed the best.

Taking it right before bed is optimal. You feel somewhat groggy in the morning but this is the type that is a peaceful groggy resulting from a good quality sleep. Since 5-HTP is a precursor to Seratonin and Melatonin your body will take the 5-HTP and process either/or depending on the time of day it is taken, environmental stimuli and your personal needs. This is a great option for me because my body generally doesn't like melatonin supplements.

Anyone with sleep problems or depression should check it out. Watch out if you have anxiety or panic attacks though as this could mean that you have too much seratonin? The first time I took this (about 2 years ago) it actually made me feel very relaxed in public settings. However, when I take it now for some reason I become somewhat "edgy" if I'm around too many people. I guess that's just my body changing it's chemistry over the years.

Some may recommend 5-HTP for stress but I would say that the action of 5-HTP does not really affect stress hormones directly enough to prove useful in that department. However, I have found if you are exhausted or burned out and are taking the herb for the first time, it can truly be a miracle worker. Experiment at home first in a comfortable setting before you use it outdoors.

Either way, overall great supplement if you have experience, eat it with the right things (or nothing at all for a more pronounced effect) and don't take too much as you can get Seratonin sickness which is not a pleasant experience as I've heard. I would recommend 2 of these per day max (or one of the 100mg).

I found that this product helps tremendously with anxiety. After a few weeks I noticed a big difference. I highly recommend 5HTP.

So I know this product is used to "up" Seratonin but I honestly haven't noticed any effects in using it for that purpose. I used to take Paxil so maybe it's just hard for anything to stack up against that. Anyhow, I do use this as a sleep aid. If you take it on an empty stomach, or without any protein in your gut at least, this will knock you out. I wake up feeling pretty refreshed and have noticed that I can even go on about 5-6 hrs of sleep and still feel rested.

Want Jarrow Formulas 5-HTP Discount?

I don't understand the science behind why 5-HTP works. I do know that since taking this product I have seen a marked drop in the anxiety I feel in my day to day life. I feel like I'm sleeping better and I have more patience when dealing with others.

I tried the Natrol brand and felt that it worked well. I went on Amazon and did some research and decided to try the Jarrow brand. I can feel a difference when taking the Jarrow brand. The most obvious difference is that it makes me feel tired within about an hour of taking it. I have an extremely active brain, so being able to 'get down' around bedtime is a huge blessing. Since I am getting more sleep, my morning routine has become much more pleasant. I can finally get up early enough to enjoy a breakfast and prepare for the day, instead of rushing out the door.

Hypnobabies Easy Pregnancy CD Bundle

Hypnobabies Easy Pregnancy CD BundleI am so excited that Hypnobabies has come out with this set for pregnancy. I used all these CD's, but I had to purchase them separately.

The Eliminate Nausea CD, is great for moms who feel sick during pregnancy. I found it helpful and have leant it to 2 friends who benefited as well.

Peaceful Sleep Now is by far my favorite of these CDs. I found it hard to sleep well during my pregnancies and was so happy to have this CD during my 3rd pregnancy. It really helped me fall asleep and sleep through the night. I did still get up to pee (baby still squished my bladder) but I was able to fall back to sleep.

The Affirmations were nice for keeping me feeling positive about my pregnancy and upcoming birth. As a VBAC mom that was extra helpful. But for any pregnant mom, staying positive is an important part of enjoying the experience.

I think this set is good for moms who want help in these areas during their pregnancy. It is also a great addition to the Hypnobabies Home Study program, which helps moms prepare for their Birth.

Moms who know they want to do the complete Hypnobabies program, or moms who are curious, but want to try it out first, this set is a great set for you!

My husband purchased this set for us. We already had another set when he bought this one because we thought this would be more comprehensive. it is more comprehensive however I don't like that you can't start listening to the most important disk until your are 37-38weeks along. The other set we purchased you can listen to them at any time and I feel like they are much more helpful than this set.

I think this set is more helpful for women who are early on in pregnancy and are having a hard time with nausea or sleeping.

The other thing I don't like about the disks is they don't get into the relaxing part of the session until after 3-5 min of explanation about what the relaxation/hypnosis is trying to accomplish.

I usually try and play everything in a row to keep the relaxation going for a couple of hours and everytime the CD changes and the woman starts talking about that CD and what it's suppose to accomplish it abruptly causes me to come out of my relaxed state.

I think that once the relaxation part starts they are usefull but that first part frustrates me to no end.

I used Hypnobabies Pregnancy Affirmations from the very early days of my pregnancy. This helped a lot to ease my fears of miscarriage (due to some medical reasons, I have a higher-than-usual chance of miscarriage). The affirmations CD helped me trust my body, and rejoyce in the miracle of pregnancy and learn to visualize and expect the best. I actually started to beliece that my body was my friend, not my enemy! The affirmations reduced my fear and anxiety, and helped me feel more confident and calm. There are great suggestions like: "Pregnancy is natural, normal, healthy and safe... My changing body is radiantly beautiful... I eat nourishing food every day for my baby... my baby is safe within me now... Growing my baby is empowering for me... with every day that goes by, I feel more confident about my pregnancy... all decisions for my pregnancy are mine to make... I am strong, confident, assured and assertive" and so on. This made an amazing difference in my pregnancy. Even a few months after my baby was born (yes, healthy, happy, full-term, with a fabulous natural Hypnobabies birth), I still use some of these affirmations about confidence, choice, having a voice, and loving my body and taking care of myself.

The other CDs are amazing too I especially love the sleep cd for expectant moms... it puts me out right away every time I listen to it, which is such a blessing with a little one needing my attention throughouot the night... using my 'peaceful sleep now' cue, I can drift right off to sleep again. An amazing, life-altering gift for any expecting friends, or the best gift you could buy for yourself or your partner!

This is a wonderful set of CDs. I ordered each of these individually when I used the Hypnobabies Home Study program in 2005. Peaceful Sleep Now is so wonderful, I still use it!!

Eliminate Nausea is a great way to calm those pregnancy nausea moments, and I have actually put on this CD when I was sick, even after having my baby.

Affirmations for pregnancy these are so necessary in this day and age when everyone wants to share their birth "horror" stories, and every birth on TV is full of danger and drama.

This would be a great set for ANY pregnant woman, not only those using the Hypnobabies program. They also are a welcome suppliment to those HypnoMoms who are using the Hypnobabies program!

Insomnia has plagued me with all of my pregnancies. The Peaceful Sleep Now was such a wonderful tool! I found it so much easier to fall asleep and go back to sleep if I awoke during the night.

The affirmations were an excellent way to keep me feeling positive and confident about my pregnancies and births--which was fabulous!

For an easy, comfortable unmedicated birth I loved the Hypnobabies childbirth education set:

Strawberry Sponge Hair Curlers (6 Sponges)

Strawberry Sponge Hair CurlersNot quite what I was expecting. I super wanted these since seeing Jiyeon on Dream High 2 using them. They're really cute, but not very good if you're depending on them to curl your hair.

If you have long hair like me (around bust-length), these curlers will maybe only roll up about half way. Also, if you roll too much hair in it'll get tangled/knotted and you might even get your hair stuck in these suckers 0___0 So beware.

All in all a really cute product, but I think I'll just save my $15 and stick to the actual hair curlers.

I love these rollers... I have natural, kinky curly hair and these rollers are perfect for twist n curls, creating an easy bantu knot effect, wonderful. I have never tried them with straight hair to create a curl, but I'm sure they will work great. These create a lasting curl in minutes, not hours... which is strange. It's almost too curly if I leave them in overnight to curl the end of my twists. I use these on either damp or dry hair after I have twisted and the result is the same each time. These are so easy to use, and they never fall out. I dont feel like they cause any damage to my hair because my hair never gets stuck in the rollers and I don't find any hair strands in the rollers when I take them out. They are not bad to sleep it, much better than any other foam roller that have used. The foam rollers with the plastic clasps feel hard at night.The cloth covered foam rollers leave indentations and create a square look. These create perfect round curls every time because the hair is wrapped around the inside and protected by the outside. I'm in love and recommend them to all. I recommend getting at least 2 packs as 1 pack of 6 is not really enough. enjoy!

HoMedics SS-2000F Sound Spa Relaxation Machine with 6 Nature Sounds, Silver

HoMedics SS-2000F Sound Spa Relaxation Machine with 6 Nature Sounds, SilverMy mom has had bad insomnia for several years, more noticeably in the past year as she recovered from knee surgery that left her in a lot of pain even after her knee had "healed". She tried everything for sleep: melatonin, Ambien, a 1/2 glass of wine, herbal remedies, diets, low/no sugar, the list goes on and on. She already was eating healthy and exercising as much as could be expected, but she could not sleep. I got her DVDs and CDs from the library and she hated them all. Then I thought of this on 1/13/13, and now she sleeps!!!!!!

She doesn't have that blissful perfect sleep that she wants, but now she dozes off and wakes up more rested without medication for sleep! We've had this for 5 days and the change is definitely noticeable!

The sounds are as listed: ocean, summer night, rain, thunder, white noise and brook.

"Ocean" is perfect, the dogs think the beach is in the bedroom and you think a surfer will walk in at any moment!

"Summer Night" has cricket noises and sounds like riding Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland (without the music)

"Rain" is by far the most relaxing.

The "Thunder" one is odd as you would think thunder is a scary noise for some, but hey if it works for you use it!

"White Noise" sounds just like a fan, a kind of noisy fan, but a fan.

"Brook" sounds bubbly and is my least favorite... it sounds like a brook but also like a faucet running.

My mom listens to this very loud for some reason I can hear it 2 rooms away but she can sleep with it like that. I come in and turn it down when I go by her room and she doesn't wake up. The sound is unobtrusive even when it is loud, and when I do hear it I am usually reading or something and it is pretty comforting.

The audio does not sound tinny at all and is very realistic. I was surprised at the sound quality especially when she had it turned up so loud, but it was very good.

I bought this model because it specifically did not have the heartbeat sound maybe good for kids who have not read Edgar Allan Poe, but not for us!

Note: This one can play ALL NIGHT LONG!! I was afraid the timer feature was the only way to use it as with some other brands/models, but you just turn this on and let it run as long as you want. Thanks to the other reviewer who mentioned that feature.

The unit is very lightweight and I can see how it can be very portable for trips. Not sure how long the batteries would last, so will probably use it with the adapter whenever we can. It is so lightweight, I do think that if you dropped it, it would probably break or crack, so be careful with it.

Definitely worth the money!

I have this noise machine running 24 hours a day. The sounds help me to fall asleep at night and keep my dog from hearing those little noises outside of my apartment (people walking) that cause her to constantly bark. Helps me sleep and keeps my neighbors happy!

The repeating pattern is hypnotic and can put you to sleep in a hurry. If you want to leave it playing continuously, just turn it on and it stays on. If you want timed operation, just select 15, 30, or 60 minutes. There are different versions of this, so make sure you get the 6 varieties of sound that you like. The SS-2000F and the SS-2000S have the best choices of sound tracks, in my opinion.

Keep away from the SS-2000E if you don't want that annoying Heart Beat!

PLUSES

1-Mine came with a Power Adapter included, so no batteries needed. I give it 4-stars because it does what it's suppose to do, but I can't give it 5-stars because there are a few things that could have made this product better.

2-The repetition of the sound tracks provide a smooth transition from Start-to-Finish and back to Start again. No pauses, no clicks.

3-It's easy to use, just press the button with the sound you want to hear, and it plays.

MINUSES

First of all...

1I would like to have an Ear Phone Jack, so that there is the option of listening to the sounds privately.

2I would like some longer tracks. The short tracks put you to sleep, because of the boredom of repetition, however, it would have been more of a pleasure to listen to if each track were 15-seconds in length rather than a mere 3-seconds.

3My unit didn't look new. It had little scratches and cosmetic imperfections.

Overall it's a really great product and highly recommended. For such a low price you can get a good nights sleep and wake up the next morning feeling well rested. It has a way of bringing on relaxation and removing tension, should have discovered this product sooner.

I bought this rationalizing that if it helped me sleep better the one or two times spent at a motel/hotel each year, it would be worth the cost. After using it for the past 7 days at home, I have to say this is a wonderful item even though we live in a rural area. The sounds are very soothing and running it quietly makes for a nice sleep atmosphere. It also helps drown out the snowplow passing by and a neighbor opening and closing his car door way too early in the morning.

Enzymatic Therapy Remifemin

Enzymatic Therapy -  Remifemin Good Night, 21 TabletsMy gynecologist recommended this product to treat menopausal symptoms, as I did not want to use hormones. Taken as directed, it is very effective in eliminating menopause symptoms for me, i.e., hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, headaches & more! One does need to go off it for about 2 weeks every six months as black cohosh builds up in the system and can cause flu-like symptoms if you don't give your body "a rest." It is made in Germany, where herbs are regulated like drugs, so you can be assured each dosage is the exact 20 mg needed (which is why it is the only brand recommended by by gynecologist). I have used it for five years with great results (three years prior to menopause and two years since).

I went thru several months of hot flashes, night sweats (couldn't sleep without a fan directly by my side), and mood swings (of course I was in denial).

Within a week of taking two pills a day, started noticing a difference. Within two months NO SYMPTOMS!!! I'm now at 3 months, FANTASTIC. My hot flashes were so bad, I'd be sitting here talking and spontaneously break out into a pouring sweat. Looked like someone had just dumped a glass of water on my neck and chest. It would instantaneously drench my clothing. It was bad, but NO MORE!! I didn't purchase this thru amazon, but still wanted to get the reviews out! But I do LOVE amazon as a vendor too!

I was told this was the stop to the hot flashes, but I did not believe any one. Hot Flashes are the most disruptive when I sleep. About 1 week after taking 2 pills, 1 in the morning and 1 at night, the Hot flashes are gone. IT IS A MIRACLE. I am totally happy. Now I just need to keep a supply so I never run out and get HOT!!

I tried this product for over two months and saw no reduction in hot flashes. What I found helps somewhat is taking Evening Primrose Oil capsules 3 times daily, along with a separate Black Cohosh supplements. Combined, those supplements cost about half as much as Remifemin and provide a good amount of relief from hot flashes. They are less frequent, less intense, shorter in duration and they don't wake me up at night anymore. If one supplement doesn't help you, try something else everyone's body is different in how it responds to supplements.

This product has been amazing. My hot flashes came on with a vengeance about two months ago. Disrupted sleep, sweat pouring down my face while lecturing, freezing out my family with wide open windows on cold nights I was a wreck. And to top it off, my daughters wedding was fast approaching and I had visions of myself in melt down during the ceremony. A friend recommended Remifemin based on her doctor's advice (as opposed to my doctor who suggested hormone replacement therapy) and I figured why not give it a try even though I am not a fan of herbal remedies.

The first two weeks on the product yielded no change and I was about to give up when I suddenly noticed that the frequency of the hot flashes were abating. I am at the four week point now; my hot flashes are rare and mild and totally manageable. But here is the weirdest part and not one that I noticed in any of the literature. About two weeks after I started, the extra weight gain that I have been experiencing over the last year suddenly stopped and pounds started dropping off. Perhaps it was pre-wedding jitters, but I noticed that no matter how little I ate or how much I exercised I barely lost weight in the past year. And, I have been strangely calm. The day of the wedding, everyone asked me if I had taken a sedative because I was so serene.

This is definitely a product worth trying before resorting to more serious intervention.

Good luck and, more importantly, keep cool!!!

Applied Nutrition Mens Whole Nutrition Liquid Soft-Gel Multi, 60-Count Bottle

Applied Nutrition Mens Whole Nutrition Liquid Soft-Gel Multi, 60-Count BottleI've been taking these multi-vitamins for about a year now. I began taking them as a compromise between completely liquid multi-vitamins and normal dry multi-vitamins. The completely liquid mutli-vitamins were recommended to me by a doctor friend as they are absorbed rapidly by the body; however, they require refrigeration and are fairly expensive.

On the other hand, the dry multi-vitamins are harsh on my stomach and I become nauseated at the smell when I open the bottle. This means I often skip taking them.

The reason I like these vitamins is that they're in mostly liquid form, don't require refrigeration (important for me as I often go places where one isn't readily available), are easy on my stomach, and I don't have to deal with the smell that I do other brands. And, they're relatively inexpensive.

They are a bit large, but not enormously so. I find I can easily swallow 2 of these and 3 other pills at once with a sip of water.

These may be good but they are the longest vitamins I have ever seen. I cannot swallow them no matter what and I have been swallowing pills since I was 6. (nearly 50 years ago). They are about the size of two good and plenty's tacked together end to end. Just FYI before you buy.

The combination vitamins and minerals eliminates me from having to purchase separate items. I wish that the calcium is a higher dosage because I have to purchase additional calcium and magnesium supplements.

I bought this vitamin for my Hubby that doesn't take too good the pills in general and after try this one (which I have the women ones and most likely have the same ingredients) he believe its been worth it and easy to digest. Packaging is nice and even do they are large (big) they are really easy to swallow. he feels the work its been done.

Tylenol Extra Strength PM Pain Reliever/Sleep Aid Caplets, 150-Count (Pack of 2)

Tylenol Extra Strength PM Pain Reliever/Sleep Aid Caplets, 150-CountPLEASE NOTE: READ DIRECTIONS BEFORE USING

Tylenol Extra Strength PM really helps ease the discomfort of muscle aches and pains when I have the flu, a bad cold or if I just simply pulled a muscle. This offers me a very good alternative to aspirin if I need pain relief; and it has a very non habit forming way of helping you drift off to sleep to get the rest you need when you're not feeling well.

Obviously, even with the ingredients that help you drift off to sleep, this is essentially for short term pain relief from relatively minor aches and pains. It can even help to temporarily reduce a fever. If you have any major problems or concerns consult a doctor before taking this product.

Tylenol comes packaged rather well and you should use this before the expiration date printed on the bottle. If the expiration date has passed throw this out and get a new bottle of Tylenol.

All in all, I have used Tylenol for decades and I have always been satisfied. It helped when I started a course of chemotherapy last month and it has almost never let me down. I highly recommend this product.

When I cannot sleep I use Tylenol PM and they are great, they really help you to go to sleep.

Tylenol PM is a non-aspirin pain reliever and fever reducer that includes a mild sleep aid as well. This is the medication of choice in our house when we come down with colds, fever, headaches, or muscle pains and need a good nights sleep. I like that this can be taken on an empty stomach (unlike aspirin) because sometimes when you are not feeling well, it is hard to force food down just so you can take medicine. The sleep aid is very gentle and does not leave me with a "hungover" feeling in the morning.

Highly recommended!

This is really good for body aches or tired body type of symptoms. It lessons the dull ache and also helps calm the mind so I can drowse off easily to sleep. Admittedly, I use Excedrin PM for the days that headaches are more of an issue during body aches. But after long days of running around or after long international plane trips, Tylenol PM is really a relief. It works and I fall asleep easily.

Body Calm Supreme - Natural Anxiety Reducer and Sleep Aid - 120 Capsules

Body Calm Supreme - Natural Anxiety Reducer and Sleep Aid - 120 CapsulesI was hoping this would be a bit stronger. It does help to relax and sleep but the effects are not long lasting. In other words taking 3 capsules allows about 3 hours of sleep.

Ajipure L-Glutamine 12 oz (340 grams) Pwdr

Ajipure L-Glutamine 12 oz PwdrI use glutamine a lot and have tried many brands and always can tell how well my body is assimilating and processing it. This is good stuff.

Results will not appear as fast as pro hormones or steroids but if you give it enough time you will see improvements, mainly helping you preserve muscle mass. It took me a good 3 weeks before I began to see changes. Take twice a day if you weight less than 200 lbs, over that weight do 3 doses. You have to be consistent and take it every day in separate doses, once in the mornings and specially before going to bed. That's when catabolic rate is at its highest peak. I give it a 4 not a 5 because of its slow working time.

Ole Henriksen Ultimate Lift Eye Gel

Ole Henriksen Ultimate Lift Eye GelLove products that do good things for me when I sleep, so this Eye Gel from Ole Henriksen is at the top of my "What's Best When I Rest" list!

Only a tiny amount is needed for application under the eyes and moving toward the temple. It's a smooth, refreshing gel, ice blue in color but transparent when applied. Fragrance free the Gel doesn't do aroma battle with night time skin treatments.

Additions of cucumber and calendula erase under eye puffiness while also discouraging laugh lines (aka wrinkles!).

My 1 oz. jar is a month old and it doesn't even look used. Another plus for this product is the expiration date of 2010 it came fresh and stays fresh.
