- Double Ended Shaping Brush

- Double Ended Shaping Brush


If you have been diagnosed with FMS, you know the overwhelming aches, pain and fatigue of fibromyalgia all too well. It makes every movement of your body an excruciating effort.

Imagine if some of that pain could be relieved - without barraging your body with any more harsh drugs.

Sound impossible? Think three things: chemical sensitivities, guaifenesin and emu oil.

Doctors are now recognizing that as many as 75 percent of the people who suffer with fibromyalgia are also sensitive to many common, often unavoidable chemicals, like perfumes, pesticides and fuels. Additionally, some individuals develop symptoms similar to fibromyalgia when they eat foods that contain additives. Some experience symptoms when exposed to carpeting and building materials.

Diagnosis of chemical sensitivities is difficult, since the signs so closely parallel those of fibromyalgia. Not only do they include the aches and pains associated with the autoimmune disease, but symptoms of chemical sensitivity may include unexplained fatigue and difficulty in sleeping as well as difficulty in breathing.

Additional signs of this problem include painful headaches, very often migraines, nausea, diarrhea and abdominal cramps. The signs even manifest as the flu-like symptoms of a runny nose, itchy eyes, and a sore throat. Some individuals complain of problems with concentration.

Chemical sensitivities usually accompany fibromyalgia. Medical experts are at a loss to explain what causes this health problem. But, that doesn't mean your doctor can't help lessen these problems. With a few simple lifestyle changes, including some which may involve your diet, you may be able to pinpoint the exact causes. Even partial relief is helpful.

Another helpful way to relieve pain besides monitoring chemical triggers I listed above, is to use emu oil on painful muscles. The emu bird was originally used by Australian Aborigenies for their meat and the oil had many uses.

Studies from University of Australia report temporary relief for painful muscles, arthritis joint pain, eczema, aging and many other uses. The meat is also reported to be healthier than chicken breast as far as cholesterol is concerned. So if you want an easy, safe and inexpensive way to relieve painful muscles due to fibromyalgia, try rubbing in some emu oil. Just make sure it's pure and has the American Emu Association seal of approval. If the oil has not been purified properly, it may contain contaminants.

Guafenesin is an over-the-counter supplement that best selling author endocrinologist Paul St. Amand, M.D. prescribes with high success for his patients who suffer with FMS. In his book, "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Fibromyalgia", he explains how guaifenesin can help relieve symptoms. However, your personal care and cosmetic products should not contain any "salicylates" for the guaifenesin to work. A website that has products without salicylates or many of the chemicals that may cause sensitivities, is www.cleure.com. They also have a lot of information on FMS.

If you suffer with fibromyalgia and chemical sensitivities, read Dr. St. Amand's book and visit http://www.cleure.com for safe alternatives to your personal care and cosmetic products.

A healthy body has healthy beautiful hair. Our hair is a reflection of our health.
At any given time, about 90 percent of the hair on the scalp is in its growing phase. This growing phase lasts for 2 to 6 years. Each hair grows approximately 1 centimetre per month during this phase. The rest, 10 % are in their resting phase. After 2 to 3 months, the resting hair falls out and new hair starts to grow in its place. It is normal to shed some hair each day as part of this cycle. However, some people may experience excessive hair loss, if more hairs enter the resting phase.

Some facts you need to know about hair loss:

It is normal to lose 50-100 hairs from the head each day.

Frequent shampooing does not lead to hair loss.

Hats and wigs do not cause hair loss.

The famous 100 strokes of the hair brush daily does not lead to healthy hair, but it definitely does improve blood circulation to the hair follicles.

Cosmetic products do not cause the hair to grow thicker and faster.

Some hairstyles, like braiding, tight ponytails can cause hair loss.

Blow-drying can worsen hair loss.

Scalp hair grows at a rate of about 1 cm a month.

Each hair on the head grows for about 3-6 years before being shed.

What are the causes of hair loss?

- Stress hair loss is temporary, but can trigger off a genetic hair loss in many people.

- Extensive use of birth control pills by women.

- Hormonal problems - Hair loss may also occur if male hormones (androgens) and the female hormones (estrogens) are imbalanced.

- Post delivery hormonal changes: Many women notice hair loss about 3 months after they've had a baby. This loss is also related to hormones.

- Nutritional deficiencies: A diet deficient in nutrients such as protein, iron, zinc deficiency is a main cause of falling hair. Excessive intake of tea, coffee, alcohol; and fried, oily, spicy, sour foods can reduce the nutrients reaching the hair follicles and may lead to hair loss.

- Drugs and medicines such as anticoagulants, chemotherapy drugs to treat cancer and antidepressants.

- Hereditary

- Infections of the scalp: Fungal infections of the scalp such as ringworm, or a sexually transmitted disease such as Treponema pallidum can cause hair loss.

- Any underlying disease: such as lupus, lichen planus or diabetes.

- Age: Hair loss is a common symptom of the ageing process. The age of onset varies from one individual to another.

- Physical and emotional stress

Is there any treatment for hair loss?

Depending on the type of hair loss, treatments are available. If the hair loss is drug related, the doctor might change the medication. Correct diagnosis along with treating an infection may help stop the hair loss. Correcting a hormone imbalance may also prevent further hair loss.

Treatment of hair loss -

- If loss of hair is due to a temporary situation such as drugs or deficiency of serum, iron, it will stop when the cause ends.

- Hair loss due to infection may require oral antibiotics or drug treatment.

- Finasteride is a prescription medication that is prescribed only for men.

- Well-chosen hairstyles often hide thinning hair and hair loss effectively. Wigs are recommended if hair loss is severe.

- Hair transplantation, hair weaving and hair bonding has improved dramatically over the last several years. If done meticulously, the result is extremely natural appearing.

Some tips for beautiful lustrous hair:

The key to beautiful hair is a clean scalp. Gently rub lemon juice all over the scalp and leave for 15-20 minutes. Then rinse off. This treatment ensures dandruff free and absolutely clean hair.

Include a lot of calcium in diet, through dairy products, sesame seeds, figs.

A mixture of an equal quantity of fresh amla juice and lime juice, used as a shampoo also stimulates hair growth and prevents hair loss.

Avoid strong shampoos and conditioners. Also avoid exposing hair to harsh weather such as wind or sunlight for long duration.

Home made shampoo - Soak equal amounts of dried shikakai, amla and reetha powder in some water, preferably in an iron vessel. Next day, use it to wash hair. This promotes hair growth as well as cures dandruff.

For dry hair, increase the intake of polyunsaturated oils such as sunflower oil, margarine and eat food rich in Vitamin B like pulses, brown rice, bananas etc.

Regularly wash hair with Fuller's earth (Multani Mitti). This will not only reduce the oil, but the hair will feel much cleaner.

Amla is an excellent hair tonic and a hair nourisher. It also helps cure graying of hair.

Boil dried amla pieces in coconut oil for a few minutes. Cool and sieve. Massage hair with this oil regularly to get black, thick and lustrous hair.

Henna or mehendi is an excellent conditioner for hair.

Boil some tea leaves in 2-3 cups of water. Strain the liquid, cool it and use it on hair as the last rinse after shampoo.

Melissa & Doug Farm Wooden Chunky Puzzle

This hand-painted, playfully styled Jumbo Puzzle is sure to capture and keep the attention of curious young minds. The thick, chunky wooden puzzle pieces fit neatly into their spots on the colorful board and also stand up for additional pretend play. Puzzle features full-color images beneath each piece to guide little ones. Measures 12"H x 11"W x 0.8"D.
Customer Review: THRILLED GRANNY
My daughter-in-law said this is the best puzzle to date and that my two year old granddaughter plays with it all the time. She wants to buy more of them.
Customer Review: Fun yet educational!
I bought this for my 10 month daughter. She's a little young to understand the toy's concept. Nevertheless she loves it very much. Each animal piece is chunky yet compact for her to hold, and she loves the bright colors. Fun way to teach them about farm animals. Her favorite is the cow! Overall, it is a must-have for any child in their early developmental years. However I'm not so sure how durable or safe the paint is, as she is teething and bites on the pieces quite a bit...


Natural Herbal Remedies for Rosacea: Rosacea is a long-term abnormal skin condition that results in redness, pimples and sometimes thickening of the skin. Although many theories are the subject of medical research, no one knows what causes this disease. There is no cure for rosacea, but there are many treatments ranging from prescription medicine to natural remedies. This article considers some of the natural remedies that might be helpful to people with mild to moderate rosacea.

Green tea as a rosacea treatment: Many benefits of green tea have been observed over the years and it is widely used as a beverage both for its pleasant flavor and also because of belief in its healthful properties. In addition to the traditional tea beverage, extracts of green tea formulated into creams and lotions, are increasingly popular to help reduce the signs of skin aging. Green tea contains relatively high concentrations of natural compounds with scientifically-documented anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. These properties may be the basis of green tea extracts reducing sun sensitivity and reducing the signs of rosacea. In addition, some people report a benefit of green tea extracts even without significant sun exposure. It is very important to use reliable formulations and to start very carefully to avoid unexpected allergy or irritation from the use of a new botanical extract.

Lavender as a rosacea remedy: Lavender has been long used in Iran for treatment of several different inflammatory diseases, but the active ingredients that may be responsible for the benefical effect are not known. Essential oils of lavender have been used in many cosmetic products, skin ointments for treatment of burns and insect bites, and many claims have been made about the relaxing or antidepressive properties of lavender fragrance. There is little direct evidence that lavender is helpful in the treatment of rosacea, but for some individuals, it may prove to be useful.

Treating rosacea with Oatmeal: The FDA recognizes collodial oatmeal (powder suspended in liquid) as effective for "minor skin irritation and itching due to poison oak. . .and insect bites." The same properties of oatmeal make it effective for many people in reducing the symptoms of rosacea. Oatmeal is reported to both relieve itching and also to contain antioxidants with anti-inflammatory properties which may be useful in treating rosacea. There are many commercial sources of oatmeal formulated into skin cleansers and ointments which may be helpful rosacea treatments.

Licorice for treatment of rosacea: This plant has been used for many centuries in Chinese medicine and as a folk remedy in Europe since at least the middle ages. One of the active ingredients in licorice, glycyrrhizin, is used in some commercial skin ointments and creams and has been shown to be effective in treating certain types of skin itching and redness. There are also synthetic chemical drugs related to glycyrrhizin under scientific investigation as potential therapies for various skin disorders.

Remember when considering the use of natural remedies that quality control of the products, and reliability of the claims on the package labels, are not closely regulated in the same way that drug quality and effectiveness is regulated. It is important to experiment carefully with a new skin treatment, being careful to avoid allergic reactions and irritation. It is also important to keep your physician informed about your use of natural rosacea remedies if you are also using prescription medicines to treat or prevent rosacea.
