Balanced B

If you are needing to add extra B Vitamins, this is a great choice. MegaFood did not skimp on the Biotin, which is the more costly ingredient & has a good balance between the various B's. Many have little to no Biotin & an overdose on the B12, etc. Although it is a little more expensive, you get your money's worth if it's needed.

Not What It Once Was...

While this had been one of the best organic options we've used, any reviews prior to Spring 2012 were based on their old formulas, which they supposedly changed to be "more sustainable". Indeed, they will be more sustainable because the new formulas are not effective & require more product to even be manageable. Therefore, we will not be buying this one again.

Previous Impression: Although a pump dispenser would be nice, if you shake the conditioner upside down before attempting to squeeze it out, it does come out easy enough. The conditioner actually feels very smooth & light to the touch, but feels heavier when on the hair. I have to be careful not to use too much. But it works great for detangling our young girls' long, thick hair! Yeah-less whining when we comb it!

I have been pleased with how this product has helped decrease inflammation in the joints & muscles, as I have a couple sites that flare up from previous injuries as well as a family history of Lupus, which I likely lean toward.

Source Naturals, ArcticPure EPA, Lemon Flavor, 500 mg, 60 Softgels

Great EPA Source

While it suggests taking twice a day, I took just one per day to assist with tension/constriction headaches, joint stiffness, & controlling cholesterol - of course this also requires other dietary & exercise measures as well. Easy to swallow & no noticeable after-taste with added lemon oil. However, I have now switched to Source Naturals, Actic Pure, Omega-3 Fish Oil, Ultra Potency, which includes 850 mg & costs less for the same 60 softgels. Even though it does not have the added lemon oil, I have had no issues with after-taste or stomach upset. But still a great product if you prefer the added lemon flavor.

Kiss My Face, OHFC, Foot Scrub, Peppermint, 4 fl oz (118 ml)

Works Great & Smells Awesome

When used regularly this scrub in combination with the foot creme has restored my once scruffy & scaley feet to smooth & crack free. I use it daily with a pumice stone, followed by the creme. The peppermint scent is just right & achieved with extracts/oils rather than chemical fragrance.

Previously I had used Source Naturals, ArcticPure EPA, 500 mg, Lemon Flavored Softgels. However, I switched due to the higher Omega 3 content at 850 mg versus 500, & this one costs less for the same 60 softgels. They are still easy to swallow & even though it does not have the added lemon oil, I have had no issues with after-taste or stomach upset.

Source Naturals, Alfalfa, 10 Grain, 648 mg, 1000 Tablets

Decent Choice Until We Found Better

We previously used this alfalfa before finding Nature's Plus version. With this & other previous brands a "serving" required taking a handful of alfalfa, which the kids didn't enjoy. Yet, these tablets are small enough that even our elementary age kids could swallow them. By comparison, Source Naturals, 10 grain, 6 tablet serving only includes 3.89 g of Alfalfa versus Nature's Plus 1 tablet, 8.5 grain serving providing 550.8 mg.

Alba Botanica, Hair Spray, Medium Hold, 8 fl oz (237 ml)

Effective & No Chemical Fragrance

Although I would prefer a few less chemicals, this hairspray has no Sodium Lauryl Sulfate or Sodium Laureth Sulfate, no Paraben Preservatives or Phthalates, & no Artificial Colors or Silicones. Pus, I cannot use products with artificial frangrances, so this is the closest I've found that still is effective, as well as reasonably priced.

This time released Vitamin C is not only a higher mg for the price, it also includes extra Calcium & Magnesium, which is awesome especially for growing kids & women. These come in an elongated tablet that is easy to swallow & with the calcium buffer does not cause digestive issues as some brands have.

Source Naturals, Omega-Flax, 1,000 mg, 90 Softgels

Good, Economical Source of Flax

Posted on Jul 21, 2012

Purchased at iHerb

As stated, Flax seed oil is an ideal vegetarian (non-fish) source of omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFA's. While a "serving" is listed as 6 softgel tablets, we take just one per day to assist with controlling our cholesterol - of course this also requires other dietary & exercise measures as well. In addition, we also use Source Naturals, ArcticPure EPA, 500 mg, Lemon Flavor, Softgels & ground flax meal. Neither one has a noticeable after taste & are easy to swallow.
