What Everyone Is Saying About How to Meet Tony Horton

Tony Horton Seems So Awesome

After doing so many workouts created by Tony Horton he always seems so awesome on camera.  I always wanted to know how to meet Tony Horton?  I am going to tell you why I like Tony Horton and why he is my favorite Beachbody trainer.

Who Is Tony Horton?

Tony Horton is a Beachbody trainer that created P90, P90x, P90x2, P90x3, 22 Minute Hard Corp, Double Time, and 10 Minute Trainer.  As you can see Tony Horton has made many workout programs that work. Why Do I Like Tony Horton? When I first started working out I started doing P90X.  I never thought I would have finished P90X after finishing the first week of p90X.  I was so sore, tired and did I mention I was really sore.  But somehow I still manage to click play every day to continue my 30-pound weight loss journey.  In my opinion, Tony Horton helped me push through because he had witty jokes, and he made working out bare able.  My favorite quote from Tony Horton is " do your best and forget the rest."  The reason why I like that quote is that it doesn't matter if you made a mistake during the workout as long as you keep going and forget about it.  Overall he seems to be a very nice person.  Plus during his other workouts he makes you feel like you can do anything that you set your mind to. Plus Tony Horton impresses me the stuff that he can do now at 60 years old.  I saw on his social media feed that he can do push ups on 4 medicine balls.  How amazing is that?  I would like to be able to do that when I am 60 years old. I Want To Meet Tony Horton One of my cousins got to meet Tony Horton during one of his workout groups.  My cousin got Tony Horton autograph for me a few years ago.  I believe it was for my high school graduation.  However, I am hoping I can meet with Tony Horton one day in person.  I just bought my first Beachbody Summit ticket last night.  I had people told me that Tony Horton was there at Summit this year which made me totally jealous.  They got to do yoga with him and then he sat there and talked with everyone for an hour instead of just leaving after yoga. My Dream I had this dream over and over while I was sleeping where I met Tony Horton.  I met him on the street and I asked him if I could take an Instagram photo with him for a shout out on social media.  Of course, he said yes and then he gave me an autograph.  After that we did a workout together.  Then I gave him one of my business cards that featured my website logo on it and he then mentioned my brand on social media.  Which then gave me thousands of followers world wide. To Tony Horton Social Media Manager Dear Tony Horton Social Media Manger I hope you see this post I am writing about meeting Tony Horton, please show him this post.  I want to meet him so badly! Have You Ever Met Tony Horton In Person? Have you ever met Tony Horton in person before?  If so what was he like when you met him?  Was he nice and how did you meet him?  I want to know! Please Share I would like to meet Tony Horton one day in my life.  Please share this post to help get his attention on social media by sharing.  Please consider sharing this post and help make my dreams come true. As You Can See I Am A Fan As you can tell from these other articles I am a fan of Tony Horton work! What Everyone Is Saying About Beachbody 10 Minute Trainer Workouts     Read the full article

How To Learn Is Sodastream Water Healthy?

Have You Seen Sodastream On TV?

Have you seen those SodaStream commercials on TV?  I just saw one this past weekend and make me start thinking is it really healthier than soda?  We shall find out today is SodaStream water healthy for you?

What Is SodaStream?

SodaStream is a soda maker that you can make homemade soda without all the chemicals in it.  All you have to do is add a carbonated water filter to the soda maker then add one of the flavors that come with it.   Then you run the machine and then it turns your water into soda.  Sounds so fancy, right?  But the real question is if carbonated water is good for your health? Is SodaStream Healthier Than Soda? According to ABC News SodaStream can be healthier if you stay away from added sugar, dyes, and other sweeteners.  SodaStream uses sugar in place of high fructose syrup which is found in other sodas.  So if you stay away from the dyes that come with SodaStream, and the added sugars it could be healthier for you than soda.  However, water will beat soda any day of the week. Would I Use SodaStream? It took me a long time to quit drinking soda.  Why would I go back to drinking poison if it took me a long time to quit?  Even though SodaStream might be a healthier choice than soda, water will be the best choice to stay hydrated and healthy in the long run.  So I would not use Sodastream or even recommend SodaStream if you are trying to quit drinking soda. Are You Trying To Quit Drinking Soda? Are you trying to quit drinking soda once and for all?  If so you may find these articles helpful. All You Need To Know About Side Effects Of Soda We Should All Stop Drinking Soda – Even The President What Everyone Ought To Know About Soda Best Ways To Kick Soda To The Curb Where Can You Buy A SodaStream? After reading those articles about quitting soda did not persuade to quit drinking soda like I did and you must have a SodaStream then I can't stop you.  You might be wondering where you can find one of these fancy machines where you can make your own soda at home?  You can purchase SodaStream from Amazon, Target, Walmart, Bestbuy and SodaStream Official Website.  The price starts at $44.99 on Amazon and it goes up to $179 dollars on SodaStream official website. If You Enjoyed This Post If you enjoyed this post please consider sharing this post on social media and subscribe to our newsletter.  If you have tried a SodaStream before did you like using it why or why not?  Look forward to hearing from you!   Read the full article

What Experts Are Saying About How to Get Rid of Kidney Stones

What Is A Kidney Stone?

Kidney stones, medically known as nephrolithiasis, cause severe pain, also known as renal colic.  Small stones can go undetected and can bypass more easily.  It's also fairly common that a stone can block part of the urinary system.  Kidney stones can happen to anyone between the ages of 30 and 60 years old.  So how do you get rid of kidney stones and what causes them?

What Causes Kidney Stones?

Waste products in the blood can occasionally form crystals that collect inside the kidney. Over time they build up and form hard stone-like lumps. If you don't drink enough fluids it's more likely to happen. If you're taking some types of medication or if you have a condition that raises levels of certain substances in your urine it can also raise the risk. The rise in kidney stones - mostly calcium stones - is also down to a change in diet. Stones are helped along by diets high in fat, sugar, and salt. What Are The Symptoms Of A Kidney Stone? There are many symptoms that you may experience if you have a kidney stone.  Fortunately, I never experienced a kidney stone and I hope it stays that way.  Let's look at some of these symptoms, shall we? Ache in your lower back, sometimes in the groin - men can have a pain in their testicles and scrotum Periods of intense pain in the back or side of your abdomen Feeling restless and unable to lie still Nausea Needing to urinate more Pain when you urinate Blood in your urine People Who Have The Following Will Have Kidney Stones high protein diet are inactive or bound in bed a family history of kidney stones had 3 or more kidney or urinary infections have had a kidney stone before you or someone you know turned 25 years old have only one working kidney have had an intestinal bypass  Some Medications Can Cause Kidney Stones aspirin antacids diuretics (used to reduce fluid build-up) certain antibiotics certain antiretroviral medication (used to treat HIV) certain anti-epileptic medication How To Get Rid Of Kidney Stones? Smaller stones will pass when you go to the toilet in your urine.  Larger stones may need breaking up. Doctors use an ultrasound or laser energy to do this, but sometimes keyhole surgery is needed to remove the very large stones. How To Avoid Getting Kidney Stones? Drink lots of water.   According to healthline.com men should drink 13 cups of water per day and women should drink 9 cups of water.  If you don't know how you can drink more water throughout the day then check out this article.  How To Drink More Water During The Day?

How To Make Healthy Choices When Eating Out Is Not Rocket Science! Learn Them Now!

Do You Eat Out At Resturants A Lot?

Do you and your family eat out at restaurants a lot?  I know that my family does.  You might be wondering how to make healthy choices when eating out?  If so that's what we are going to be discussing today.

What Kind Of Foods Do I Eat At Resturants?

My family and I like to eat out at different kind of restaurants like BBQ, Chinese, Mexican, Japanese, and Italian.  I like to eat certain kinds of food at each kind of restaurant.  Here are some examples that I like to eat at these kinds of restaurants. Italian Restaurants There are multiple Italian restaurants that my family and I like down at the shore and in PA.  There are a few things that I eat to stay healthy when eating out.  The first Italian restaurant at the shore I like to order a Caprese salad, salmon and a side of veggies.  The second Italian restaurant at the shore I like to order Caprese salad, any kind of fish or angel hair pasta with homemade meatballs.  Sometimes I notice at some restaurants they have whole wheat pasta which is healthier than pasta made out of flour.   When you get a salad at the restaurant make sure you ask for the dressing on the side and tell them don't bring the bread. BBQ Resturants I like to order salmon, chicken and sometimes a nice filet mignon at BBQ restaurants.  Another thing that I like to do is to stay away from BBQ sauce because they tend to have too much sugar in them.   Some of the sides that I like to get is either corn on the cobb or applesauce.  I stay away from baked beans because they are high in sodium. Japanese Resturants My favorite thing to eat at Japanese restaurants is Sushi.  I like tuna, salmon, avocado, mango, and salmon and avocado roll.  I suggest to only eat tuna in moderation because it's high in mercury. Chinese And Mexican Resturants I am still learning about what I could eat to keep eating healthy at Chinese and Mexican restaurants.  Once I figure that one out I will make another post about how to make healthy choices when eating out.

The Insider's Guide to Video Game Addiction Warning Signs

Do You Believe In Video Game Addiction?

I want to ask you a question before we get started.  Do you believe in video game addiction?  I want to discuss the video game addiction warning signs because I believe it has affected me over the last few years.

What Is Video Game Addiction?

According to WebMD, video game addiction is like a drug addiction.  How may you ask?  The person needs more and more of a substance or behavior to keep going.  If the person does not get enough of that substance they get angry and very irritable.  Some kids get really angry, violent, sad and or depressed.  When parents take away the computer from their kids they cry and refuse to eat or sleep. What Are The Video Game Addiction Warning Signs? According to WebMD some of the signs include: Playing for increasing amount of time Thinking about gaming during other activities Gaming to escape real life problems Lying to friends and family to conceal gaming Feeling annoyed when trying to cut down on gaming Gaming addicts also drop out of other interests just because they are addicted to playing video games. So Why Am I Taling About This Today? I am talking about video game addiction warning signs today because I believe that I have been a victim of video game addiction myself.  However, I have never been diagnosed with it but I believe I still suffered from it. My Video Game Addiction Story I use to play this game called Runescape which is a Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game.  It was quite fun and addicted.  I use to play it for hours on end like there is no tomorrow.  In the game, you can talk to other players and become friends.  You can also skill in the game to get 99 in all 27 or 28 skills.  I am not going to list all the skills but you can basically do whatever you want in the game as long as you don't break the rules. My Video Game Story Part Two When I got my computer taken away as a kid growing up I use to have tantrums.  When my brother needed the computer for homework I cried and pout.  There were times during the school day or maybe most of the day where I just think about playing Runescape when I got home.  Let's be honest I was never really fond of school when I was growing up.  So playing Runescape was like an escape for me to forget about all those tests and huge amounts of homework each night. My Video Game Story Part Three Just recently I started to rethink how I want to spend my time.  Why the sudden change of heart all the sudden that I am in college?  Well, starting in 2017 I started to get busier with my life.  Some of this busy things in my life include this website, karate, bowling, exercising.  There are also some other busier things in life that I do not find fun what so ever like Lyft and Uber.  But you got to do what you got to do to make money, am I right? Perhaps Online Multiplayer Games Are At Fault? Now don't get me wrong I am not bashing every single online multiplayer game, but you have to wonder if they are the ones to blame.  Let me give you a solid example of a never-ending online game.  Let's use Runescape again, shall we?  Runescape has these double xp weekends that start on the last weekend in September and February of every single year.  Xp stands at experience points I  believe and during those double xp weekends you earn double the amount of xp than any other day during the week.  During these weekends I use to play at least like 30 hours maybe even more.  My friends and I use to skype and just joke around and basically show off to each other how much xp we get each day. Still Not Convinced? If you are still not convinced about video game addiction being real then let's take it to the next step.  This year in 2018 Runescape announced that they were making an Android and Apple app so you can play on the go.  Sounds awesome, but do we really need to take the game on the go?  I thought it was an awesome idea until I joined my recent clan in the game.  Oh, I forgot to mention that there are clans in the game that you can talk with too.  Some of the people in the clan seem to be older than me and they are still playing the game.  That's when it occurred to me I want more out of life than playing Runescape. When Did I start Playing Runescape I started playing Runescape back in 2007 and I am officially stopping in 2018.  I believe I started playing because I was escaping my life problems.  Here is some example of some of my life problems back then.  My teachers were giving me too homework, bullies in school, what am I going to do after school? I Have Other Interests Now During those tough times in school, I played to escape from real life.  Perhaps I was filling a big empty gap in my life.  But no more because I have other interests now.  I am back at karate which I love, running a website which has its ups and downs.  Plus I am in college studying to become a personal trainer.  I wouldn't mind reading more books in life to keep my brain going.  During 7th grade, I use to read all the Harry Potter books in one year.

Do You Think I Am Addicted?

Do you think I am addicted to video games?  I still believe I am and that's why I am quitting Runescape for good this time.  However, I am not going to quit video games all together.  I found this Harry Potter game on mobile that is quite fun but it's one of those games where you can only do so much for a certain amount of time.  For instance, you can only play the game when your character has energy and then once you run out you have to wait for a few hours to recharge by itself.  Or you can buy energy with in-app purchases, which is just a waste of money.  This Harry Potter game has the right amount of time for me to enjoy a nice break and then right back to something else that I enjoy.  remember that post about social media manager I talked about Stay Focus app?  If not here is a little recap.  Here Come New Ideas for Managing Social Media for Business.  Well, I use Stay Focus to block access to the Harry Potter app until the weekend.

Are You Addicted?

Are you addicted to video games?  Perhaps this post has helped you determine that you are addicted and you need help.  If you like this post please consider sharing it and help other people that are in need. Read the full article

A Grand Opening By The Numbers

Our Online Store Is Back

Remember how we got rid of our online store a few months ago?  Well, our store is having a grand opening today!  Let me give you a rundown of what will be featured in our store, this time around.

What Items Can You Expect

What items can you expect in our returning store?  You can expect to see all of the products that I use every single day.  Here are some examples that you will find in our store.  Shakeology, Beachbody on Demand, Essential Oils, Essential Oils reference books, rollers, water bottles and much more. Why Are We Opening Our Store Again We are opening our store again to help cover our server costs.  Another reason why we are reopening the store is that our app is almost done so we decided to open the store to celebrate.  We also said that we are going to make the app amazing so we decided to add the store in the app as well.  Perhaps you need a water bottle and you don't have time to find a good water bottle in the store.  Well, all you have to do is just tap on our app on our phone and you can purchase right through the app.  Pretty handy, right? Keeping Items To A Reasonable Amount As the founder of this website, I told my team to keep the items to a reasonable amount.  So, in other words, we are not going to have over 700+ products in our store.  We are not trying to be like Amazon in any way so I decided to fill our store with only products that I use on a daily basis or recommend, which sounds reasonable, right? More Items In Our Store Soon As you can see most of the store is empty except for the water bottle category.  Rest assured that there will be more products coming in the next day or two, worse case three. Specific Product Categories You may also notice that my team and I have made our product categories very specific.   We felt the reason why our last attempt at the store was a true failure is that our categories were too broad and not specific enough. Improved Store And Site Navigation Another thing that you may have noticed is that we have changed our site navigation around.  When you click on the shop page you will be presented with a different menu so you can find the products more easily.  Another thing that I just noticed myself last night that our site had different navigation menus on the desktop than on mobile.  So let's say you were looking for the App Coming Soon page on mobile.  The only way to get to that page was to scroll all the way down to the bottom to the end of the website.  So now we have clear website navigation on all devices.  So that should help make the store much better and user-friendly.

What Everyone Is Saying About Bad Dehydration Symptoms

Let's Talk About Dehydration

It's the summer time which means a lot of hot weather.  When it gets really hot outside you are at risk of becoming dehydrated.  Today I want to talk about bad dehydration symptoms.

Unfortunately, I Know What Dehydration Feels Like

There was one day where I didn't drink any water what so ever.  I don't know why, but all I know that I will never let myself do that again.  The most unfortunate part about that day was that I had karate at night.  Let me tell you that being dehydrated in karate is a big no-no.  During that karate class after one round, I felt like I was going to faint and pass out.  However, I still kept pushing through.  After that day I decided to order myself a Hydro Flask from Amazon.  Now I bring a water bottle with me where ever I go. What Are The Bad Dehydration Symptoms? According to the Mayo Clinic dehydration symptoms can include: Extreme thirst Nausea Dizziness Dark-colored urine Diarrhea Vomiting Fatigue Less frequent urination Increased urination Fever Excessive sweating Confusion You should call a doctor if it continues to worsen. Diarrhea for 24 hours or more Black or bloody stool Difficulty keeping fluids down Disorientation

Why Recent Food Recalls 2018s Will Change Your Life

Recent Food Recalls 2018 Is Pretty Scary

Don't you think those food recalls are pretty scary?  Recent food recalls 2018 makes us pretty scared to open food in the office because you don't know what will pop out at you.  Let's talk about the most recent recall this week and then we will throw in some of the other bizarre recalls in earlier years.

Most Recent Food Recalls 2018 This Week

According to Faith Karimi who is a writer at CNN, wrote about that how some cereal, fruit trays and veggie trays are being recalled.  She also mentions which states and what stores that these foods are being recalled from.  let's check out some of these food that are being recalled, shall we? Recent Food Recalls 2018 That Just Happened  On Sunday, June 17th 20018 Kelloggs Honey Smacks Cereal - The Federal health wants everyone to throw away Kelloggs Honey Smacks Cereal because there was a salmonella outbreak sickened 73 people across Thirty One states.  The FDA does not want any people eating this cereal no matter what size it is or what the expiration date on it says.  Twenty four people have been sent to the hospital, there have been no deaths reported. New York has the highest number of cases -- seven -- while California, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania have each reported five cases. Other states involved have reported between one and four case of illnesses. Symptoms Include: Salmonella symptoms include fever, diarrhea and abdominal pain that begins 12 to 72 hours after exposure to the bacteria. 2.Del Monte Vegetable Tray - The Food and Drug Administration says it's investigating at least 78 cases of cyclospora illnesses linked to recalled Del Monte vegetable trays. The trays contained broccoli, cauliflower, carrots and dill dip, and were sold in Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. In addition, Del Monte is recalling small veggie trays that include broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, celery and dill dip distributed in Illinois and Indiana, the FDA said in a statement. Symptoms Includes: Cyclospora cayetanensis is a microscopic parasite that contaminates food or water, and when ingested, causes an intestinal illness. Symptoms include diarrhea, with sometimes explosive bowel movements, loss of appetite, weight loss, stomach cramps, bloating, nausea and fatigue. 3. Cut Fruits - You know those awesome fruits that are cut and packaged for you?  Well, you may want to reconsider in buying those for a while.  Because the Food and Drug Administration is warning people in 23 states that the fruit may be contaminated with salmonella. The outbreak has affected 60 people mostly in five Midwestern states -- with about half of them hospitalized.Cut watermelon, honeydew and cantaloupe as well as fruit salads containing these melons have been recalled in Alabama, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin.The fruits were sold in stores such as Walmart, Kroger, Walgreens, Sprouts Farmers Market, Costco and Whole Foods/Amazon.

Previously Recalled Foods In Earlier Months/Years

Recall Of Mac n Cheese 2017 5 Biggest Food Recalls In 2016 Biggest Food Recalls 2015 We Have An Idea We have an Idea for the FDA.  Instead of just reporting this news to all the big time news companies like Fox, CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, Ect.  What if on top of that you give each food company a billion dollar fine or a million dollar fine whichever you think is reasonable.  Once those food companies have to pay a hefty fine like that maybe they will soon learn that their products are full of too many chemicals and they are killing people and putting them in the hospital.  We know that we only mention three different examples but there are so many outbreaks a year that it wouldn't even fit on a page.  One would think after a while of all these outbreaks multiple times a year, the FDA would slap a million or billion dollars fine.

Be Careful Of The Food You Eat

The next time you go grocery shopping make sure you check out the FDA Recall Website and subscribe to their rss feed or sign-up for their alerts.  Remember how your parents said safety first?  Well, it would apply in this situation too.   Read the full article

This Is Why Sweet Potato And Eggs Breakfast Is So Famous!

Sweet Potato And Eggs Breakfast

I just tried a really nice recipe for lunch which is sweet potato and eggs breakfast.  It only took like 10 mins to make the longest part was the sweet potato because it was in the refrigerator beforehand.  You got to try this recipe it is so yummy.

Sweet Potato And Eggs Breakfast Recipe

Ingredients: water 1/2 sweet potato peeled 4 large egg whites 1 large egg 1 tsp olive oil  2 fresh rosemary sprigs leaves removed  and chopped, stems discarded Directions: Fill the bottom of the steamer with 2 inches of water; bring to a boil over high heat. Place sweet potato in the top of the steamer; steam for 5 to 7 minutes, or until fork-tender. Set aside. Combine egg whites and egg in a small bowl; whisk to blend. Heat oil in medium skillet over medium heat. Add egg mixture; cook, stirring frequently, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until set. Place eggs and sweet potato on a serving plate. Sprinkle sweet potato with rosemary; serve immediately.

Shortcuts That I used

I used some shortcuts in this recipe instead of boiling water for the sweet potato I put it in the microwave on high for 12 mins.  Then I cut the sweet potato open with the skin still on and just scooped it out.  So basically it was just mashed sweet potatoes on a plate. Instead of four large egg whites, I used my liquid egg whites that are in a carton.  I know some of these egg whites that are in cartons are not as healthy as an actual egg but I found one that the only ingredient in the carton is 100% egg whites. Another shortcut that I used in this recipe that I used is rosemary that was in a little jar so I didn't have to chop it up.

How List of All Chemicals Can Help You Live a Better Life

Chemicals Are Scary, Am I Right?

Yesterday got me thinking that chemicals are scary, right?  Some list of all chemicals can be extremely dangerous to our health.  In today's post, I am going to go over an app called Think Dirty and go over what some of the numbers in the app mean.  Then I will discuss how I got into essential oils and some stuff that I use them for.

Before We Get Started With The List Of All Chemicals

Before we get started here are a few articles that you might find interesting that goes over some of the ways that I use the essential oils. Sleep Secrets Revealed The Best Way To Fall Asleep The Most Boring Article About Stress You'll Ever Read The Effects Of Stress Can Make You Gain Weight As you can see I use the oils for sleep, stress and later on I will share an interesting essential oil recipe for homemade hair gel that I found on Pinterest.  Now time to talk about the scary list of all chemicals. The List Of All Chemicals Part One (Oh How Scary) Chemicals can lead to death, addiction, cancer, all different other kinds of diseases that just makes the list longer and longer.  So I have a question.  Why do all the products that we use every day have chemicals in it?  I can't even pronounce some of the chemicals on certain products and some of them are pretty creepy if you Google them. So how can you tell which types of products are the most harmful of them all?  Well, ever since I started using essential oils I heard about an app called Think Dirty.

The List Of All Chemicals Part Two ( Chemicals Doesn't Have To Be So Scary With The Help Of Think Dirty) The list of all chemicals doesn't have to be so scary with the help Think Dirty.  How does Think Dirty work?  First, you have to take a picture of all the ingredients that are on the product and then it comes back with you with a score.  Each score tells you how dangerous your product is to your health by the list of all chemicals on that product that you use every day. What Do The Ratings Mean On The List Of All Chemicals? Now let's dive into what those ratings mean in the app.  Take a look at the screenshot that I took personally in the app from my phone.

  I don't know why some of those numbers got cut off but this is called the Dirty Meter.  It tell's you which products are the dirtiest of them all.  My hair gel that I use to buy from my haircut place was a 10!  I kid you not that got me so scared that I decided to make my own hair gel from scratch.  It was kind of a fun little science experiment and the best part is that I didn't make it explode all over my house.  Like the times that I explode my oatmeal in the microwave a few times.  Don't ask why that happened. How Did I Get Started With Essential Oils After The List Of All Chemicals Freaked Me Out? So now that I probably scared you about the list of all chemicals you are probably wondering how did I get started with essential oils?  I first got introduced to essential oils by a friend of mine who also tutors me in science and math in college.  She came to my house one afternoon to talk to me, my mom and my other friends and their parents about essential oils.  This happened before I learned about the list of all chemicals and how it was dangerous for our health.  During this demonstration, I was kind of skeptical about the essential oils.  I am not sure why I was so skeptical, perhaps it just sounded too good to be true.   It took me a few more weeks of sleeping horribly to decide to give it a shot.  My friend/tutor gave me a few little rollers to help me sleep.  Once I started using them I started to sleep better.  Now I know you are probably thinking well since I haven't slept well in weeks I just crashed and fell asleep.  No that's not what happened, I crashed and fell asleep in a deep sleep. I Was Hooked On Essential Oils After That Night I was hooked on essential oils after that night and after learning about the list of all chemicals.  So my mom decided that it would benefit me and her.  So then she bought it for me and her to use.  After seeing the list of all chemicals in hair gel that I bought in the haircut place I decided to use Pinterest to find an essential oil recipe for hair gel for men.  All-Natural DIY Hair Pomade: Step By Step Tutorial With Photos  I found this article on Pinterest and it was written by Ryan Foy who is a writer at Momtastic.com.  I followed each step one at a time and it turned out awesome.  I had a big glass jar and it will probably last me a lifetime lol.

Essential Oils Is So Much Better Than The List Of All Chemicals

It turns out that essential oils are so much better for you than the list of all chemicals.  The next time you are in a store and you are not sure about certain chemicals then download Think Dirty on Apple and Android.  You can find the direct links to both of the apps on Think Dirty Website If you are interested in buying the starter kit of essential oils you can check out the prices on Amazon

If You Enjoyed This Post

If you enjoyed this post please consider sharing this post with everyone you know!  Those products that sit out on our local grocery store shelves are dangerous and overly priced.  Now let's go make a difference.  Let's say no to the big list of all chemicals.       Read the full article
