I have tried a few brands and types of digestive enzymes and I keep coming back to this papain based formulation. I've tried fancier ones which are always costlier, but they never seem to be quite as effective. I need these so that I don't feel full for hours and hours after eating a meal. The only thing I don't love about this particular tablet is that it is chewable. it's very sweet and sticks in your teeth. You must eat it quickly or the enzymes will start to break down the tissues in your mouth and throat. Overall, this product is a godsend for someone like me. It really helps you to digest. -

This is a high end Whey Isolate Protein. A trusted brand, Precision is known in health circles as a superior product. I can agree with that. Many protein powders are chalky or have a chemical taste to them. I tried the Unflavoured so that I could put it in anything and it tastes absolutely great. It takes on the flavour of whatever I'm adding it to. What do I like about it? Like I said TASTE! That is a very important aspect in regard to protein powder. I like that it is sweetened naturally with Stevia, not sugar or artificial sweeteners. The whey is derived from cattle that have not been raised on hormones... a big plus for people who care about what they put in their bodies. Also, no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives. it is also screened for over 250 contaminants like PCB's and pesticides. I would have to say I love everything about this product except the price. It is about 4 times more expensive than other brands like Dymatize. However, the cheaper brands can't boast nearly as many health benefits. If you can afford it, I think Precision Whey Isolate is by far the superior choice for those who are health conscious on more than a superficial level. -
Whiskas Original Cat Food
Honestly, this is one of the worst (and cheapest) cat foods available. Considering what's in it, it should be free! When I adopted my cat the previous family had been feeding her this garbage for a couple years... to my horror. All you have to do... +
Honestly, this is one of the worst (and cheapest) cat foods available. Considering what's in it, it should be free! When I adopted my cat the previous family had been feeding her this garbage for a couple years... to my horror. All you have to do is look at the ingredients. My cat loved it, however. She didn't want to eat higher protein and whole food meals. Why would she? Would your kids complain if they had chips and pizza for dinner every night? Would you feel like you were safe-guarding their health and being a responsible parent? Probably not. It took some time, (I had to buy a couple bags of Whiskas myself) to transition her off it. She resisted, because she wanted her junk food. But now she eats high quality foods like Orijen and Fromm. I am invested in my cat's long term health. Just like I wouldn't give my kid a Mars bar for dinner every night, I'm not going to give my cat the equivalent in cat food. The trick is to transition them slowly. Cats have a very sensitive digestive track. Slow and steady wins the race. I'm sure your cat is a family member too. Don't skimp on food unless you absolutely cannot find another way. You will pay the price eventually in vet bills. Educate yourself, lengthen your pet's life, and do not feed your kitty this dumpster garbage. -

Sure these FlipFlops come in a dizzying array of fun colours. And boy are they cheap! I got a bit carried away buying a few pairs. In hindsight I would have been better off buying one decent pair of real FlipFlops that are made with some support and sized properly. I found these ill-fitting and tight. The thong part of the sandal digs in between my toes. In short I cannot wear these for very long. A quick trip to the store, or to do laundry. Do not venture out on a day trip wearing these. Your feet will rue the day. -

I'll be honest I wear mostly black, so stain removal isn't a big issue. Strangely, my bedding is almost exclusively white, and that can lead to stain problems, especially since I am a woman of child-bearing age. Yes, blood can happen. Aside from meaning to get my mitts on a box of Borax to whiten my whites in general, I was recently compelled to up my stain-removing & whitening game. I did a lot of internet research (like you are probably doing now) and many people recommended OxiClean for blood removal. I also read about natural enzyme cleaners, so I also picked up some Seventh Generation Enzymatic Stain Remover. I tried the natural option first and it didn't seem to budge anything. I made a strong solution of OxiClean and water and soaked my bedding for about two days and all blood stains and yellow perspiration stains have disappeared now. I read on one site that a guy soaked his stuff for a week! I guess there is nothing to lose if your items are garbage-bound otherwise.
All in all I was very impressed with OxiClean. I really should have bought this stuff sooner. I now mix a scoop into my regular whites load to keep everything looking good! ...just like the container says to.
