Elderberry Extract Lozenges

I recently had the chance to check out Respiratory Guard’s Elderberry Extract Lozenges and let you guys know what I honestly think. There’s no incentive to give a positive review or repercussions for giving a negative review. All they ask is that I give honest feedback. Since several members of my family (my mom, my Goddaughter, and four of my cousins) have all been dealing with the flu I jumped at the chance to try the product.

First off, I should mention that I’m very fond of the positive effects that Elderberry is known to have on the body. If you’re not familiar with Elderberry you should be. Elderberries are used to treat flu symptoms because they can boost your immune system. In fact, they even used Elderberries to treat the people in Panama during the 1995 flu epidemic. So you know it works!

Besides that, these Elderberry Extract Lozenges taste really great. They kind of taste like blueberry yogurt to me. My mom says they taste like blueberry mixed with grape. I like that they don’t have a strong taste like cough drops and they’re not too sweet. I also love the way they slowly dissolve in my mouth.

I know a lot of people are afraid of getting flu vaccines because sometimes you get sick after getting them. That’s why it’s probably a good idea to try these Elderberry Extract Lozenges. I’m not saying that they’ll keep you from getting the flu, but they can boost your immune system so that you can fight it off. Even if you currently have the flu these lozenges can help relieve some of your symptoms.

I shared my lozenges with my mom and she really liked them. I’m sure they’ll continue to boost her immune system the longer she takes them. Lozenges wont replace flu vaccines but they definitely come in handy if you have the flu or if you’re just trying to give your immune system a little boost to fight off whatever respiratory illnesses are going around right now. If you get a chance to, definitely give Respiratory Guard’s Elderberry Extract Lozenges a try.

That’s Recommended?

I was online browsing videos and I often come across “recommended videos” for me to check out. Most of the time I have no idea why most of those videos are being recommended to me. I know that they try to recommend things based on your viewing history, but some of the videos have nothing in common. At least not that I can see. Maybe there are some keywords or something that I’m missing. For instance, a couple of weeks ago I kept being recommended videos of people recording drug use. I’m not even sure why.

I know sometimes I search different terms I’m curious about via the search engine and it often takes me to videos. Maybe that’s why. I really hate seeing those videos of people abusing drugs for fun. I know a lot of people find then funny because people do crazy things when they’re on drugs, but I feel sorry for them. I can’t find the humor in people who need drug rehab recording themselves doing crazy things. Some of my friends think I’m too sensitive about the drug abuse subject but I don’t care. It’s just so sad to me.

My Magnetic Bracelet

Have you guys ever heard about the healing power of magnetic bracelets? I first heard about this when I was younger and experiencing migraines. Someone suggested that I try using a magnetic ring to alleviate some of the pain. At the time that seemed really strange, but I’ve heard so much about it over the years that I really wanted to try it for myself. I’m sure some of you are familiar with my medical issues and the chronic pain that I suffer with on a daily basis. That’s why I’m giving the magnetic bracelet a try.

So far I really love the bracelet. It’s really comfortable and cute so I don’t mind wearing it every day. I was actually surprised at how light it is. For some reason I thought it would be heavy and bulky but it’s not. I read that over 200 million people in the world use magnetic jewelry to relieve the pain of migraines, carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, joint pain and even poor circulation. Since my condition is a little more severe I’m going to continue to wear my bracelet on a daily basis and see how it changes my pain. If you’ve ever thought about giving magnetic bracelets a try, you should!

I’m Drawing Again!!!

I’ve finally started back drawing and creating vector images again! I’m so happy that I’ve been able to do it. It’s been months (close to a year!!!!) since I’ve done it because of my illness. It’s really funny because earlier this month when I decided to do a vector I was completely lost. It had been such a long time since I did it that I didn’t even know where to start. I spent about thirty minutes starting and stopping until I really remembered what I was supposed to be doing! Now I’m on a roll. It’s just like old times!!

My mother is always telling me “If you don’t use it, you’ll lose it”, and boy was she right! Now that I’ve started back drawing I need to buy a few things that will make it more comfortable for me. First of all I need a new computer chair, a higher computer desk, a new mouse and a new mouse pad. Basically I need everything. I’ve seen a lot of computer desks that I want but I still haven’t found the perfect chair. Maybe I’ll look for one on Friday!
