Hello there and thanks for "hopping" by! I have several health concerns and I'm always on the lookout for natural treatments and cures. I live a vegan lifestyle, so I'm always researching the ingredients and animal testing status of various products. I love helping people make the best choices for their health and well-being. I hope that my experiences with natural products will help you make well-informed purchases.

This polish is very watery and leaves streaks on my wood table. It smells really nice though.

No Conditioner Needed!

Posted on Jun 29, 2012

4 people found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

This is my favorite shampoo of all time. It smells awesome and makes my hair shine. It has a strong orange scent with just a hint of patchouli. Some people don't like the smell of patchouli, but I love it - it's an earthy, woodsy scent. When I first switched to this shampoo, it reduced my dry, itchy, flaky scalp and dandruff. It's effectiveness for that particular problem has leveled off a bit since then, but it's still better than other shampoos for that condition. I don't even need to use conditioner with this - and I have long hair!

Relieves Stomach Pain, Discomfort, Heartburn, and Acid Reflux

Posted on Aug 01, 2012

4 people found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

Recently, I was under a great deal of stress and was having constant pain in my upper abdomen. I am not sure what it was, but it felt like it might be pain from gastritis, ulcers, and/or hiatal hernia. The pain started a few months after I began taking Potassium Gluconate, which I later learned can cause gastritis. I started taking Doctor's Best PepZinGI along with mastic gum, licorice (DGL), slippery elm, and acidophilus. The combination significantly soothed the pain I was having. I am no longer having those pains, so whatever it was must have healed. Whenever it feels like my food may have been too acidic or I have overeaten during a meal, this is the first supplement I take. It relieves stomach pain, discomfort, heartburn, and acid reflux very quickly. I recommend this for anyone with digestive or gastrointestinal issues.

Relieves Itchy Skin from Dyshidrotic Eczema/Pompholyx

Posted on Aug 29, 2012

4 people found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

I've had Dyshidrotic Eczema, or Pompholyx, on my left heel for about three years now. For a few days, skin will itch, blister, and weep and then alternate with a period of extremely dry, cracked, fissured skin. This process repeats itself indefinitely. I'm not sure exactly what caused it, but looking back, I believe that it was triggered when I rubbed my heel against a concrete sidewalk. It is believed that Pompholyx is caused by a metal allergy and concrete contains a wide variety of metals. Stress is also said to be a contributing factor and is something which I have experienced to the extreme over the past four years. I've been experimenting with different supplements as a systemic approach to treating the problem - selenium is one that I am trying out at the moment. I haven't yet found a cure for the eczema itself, but this cream relieves the severely itchy skin that results from this difficult and persistent skin condition. It works almost immediately. I also use Shikai Borage Therapy Foot Cream to handle the dry, cracked, and fissured skin that always emerges after the itching phase.

Keeps Gallbladder Attacks Away!

Posted on Aug 29, 2012

3 people found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

Seriously, I could not live without this stuff. I have gallstones and have had several gallbladder attacks. They are extremely painful. Every month or two, I notice a dull ache under my rib cage on my right side. When I notice that, I start taking one capsule before mealtimes. If I forget to take one before the meal, I take one after the meal anyway. Within a few days, I notice that the ache starts to subside. After that happens, I'm usually pretty confident that I won't have a gallbladder attack. I only take one capsule at a time because whenever I take two, I get a headache. The exception to that rule was when I took four capsules at one time during an attack and it seemed to help the stone pass faster. The pain of the attack would mask the pain of any potential headache anyway. I'm so glad that I discovered these before following the traditional "treatment" of having my gallbladder removed. Dr. Christopher's is the cheapest brand I've found, but they certainly don't skimp on quality.

Authentic Ramen Noodles!

Posted on Jun 29, 2012

3 people found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

These ramen noodles are absolutely the next best thing to handmade Japanese ramen noodles. They are amazing in both taste and texture and have the classic buoyancy of authentic Japanese ramen. They never seem to get soggy or mushy no matter how long they sit in a bowl of hot broth. If you wish to make a truly special bowl of ramen, use these noodles. You won't be disappointed! I also love Hakubaku's udon, but these are, by far, their best noodles yet!

Great Vegan Daytime Moisturizer

Posted on Jul 01, 2012

1 person found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

This works great as a daytime moisturizer. The top layer of my skin seems much softer and the deeper layer of my skin seems firmer. You can wear this under makeup which is really nice. The downsides are that sometimes the fragrance in this product gives me a headache and if you accidentally get this near your eyes, it will blur your vision and make your eyes water all day. Overall though, it's a great moisturizer. I had a difficult time deciding whether or not to buy this product because the description didn't reveal whether or not it was vegan. For anyone out there who is vegan, the jar itself reads "100% vegan and cruelty-free". Also, according to the company's website, this product is indeed vegan: "The derma e® Natural Bodycare line of 100+ products is cruelty-free and 100% vegetarian, and most of our products are suitable for vegans. Customers who choose to avoid beeswax should be aware that the following products may contain this ingredient: • Anti-Aging Moisturizing Complex, SPF 15 (Item #0405) • Anti-Ache™ Herbal Pain Relief Crème (Item #8400)"

Refreshing and Can Feel it Working!

Posted on Jul 03, 2012

1 person found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

I keep this in the shower and use it to wash my face. The exfoliating particles are smaller than those in other scrubs I've tried, so it's necessary to use more of it to really get the same effect. However, if you use enough of it, you can really feel it working. It leaves a slight tingling feeling on your skin. It's very refreshing. My face always looks and feels so clean after I use it.

Helps me Sleep!

Posted on Jul 01, 2012

1 person found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

I love this lip balm! I use it all the time. The orange scent and taste are awesome. I love that it's vegan! It's so much softer on my lips than what I remember of beeswax lip balms. It lasts quite a long time, depending on how much I apply. Sometimes, I apply this to my lips before I go to sleep. Not only does it make my lips super smooth and soft in the morning, but it also helps me sleep better! I did an internet search on orange oil and I learned that it can be used as a sedative. I never knew that. I wouldn't doubt the cannabis oil has something to do with it too. It never fails - every time I apply it before bed, I get a much better night's sleep! Merry Hempsters has a customer for life!

Clothes Smell and Feel Clean

Posted on Jun 30, 2012

1 person found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

This is my favorite laundry detergent. Our clothes smell so nice when they come out of the washing machine - a very pleasant grapefruit citrus scent. They also feel very clean. It does a great job getting dirt and grease out of my husband's work clothes. It's very concentrated, so you get more in a smaller container which is good for the environment. The cold-water formula works great - same thick, concentrated formula as the original, just more soluble in cold water.

Great in Malted Milkshakes and New York Bagels

Posted on Jun 30, 2012

1 person found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

This has a mildly sweet and unique taste that can only be described as malty. It's a very fine powder that gets your hands a little bit sticky after you touch it. As a vegan, before finding this barley malt, it had been a very long time since I had last tasted a malt - otherwise known as a malted milkshake in some parts of the world. I thought that the only way to make one was to use malted milk. Well, that has animal products in it making it unsuitable for a vegan. Now, I just mix this barley malt with Better Than Milk Vegan Soy Milk Powder (also sold on iHerb) to make my own vegan malted milk! To make a milkshake, blend some of the homemade vegan malted milk with some vegan ice cream and you've got yourself some malted awesomeness. I also use a little of this barley malt when making homemade New York style bagels. It adds a mild hint of sweetness and flavor to the dough. My next experiment will be malted milk balls like Whopper's. This is great stuff! I totally recommend this product.
