Liquid Vitamin Supplements
Liquid vitamin supplements were never heard of just a few years ago. In the past, tablets and pills were the ideal way to take supplements.

With the market craving more and manufacturers looking for ways to make vitamins better, they decided to turn to liquid vitamins. I know what you are probably thinking. … [Read more...] about Liquid Vitamin Supplements

Dietrine carb blocker
What is the Dietrine carb blocker? As you know I am a big proponent of using a good diet and exercise to lose although a carb blocker is an interesting idea. There is no such thing as taking a pill to lose and even if a pill did the job I am not sure that in the end it makes you any healthier than a classic couch potato. Most of the time we can just exercise and have a good diet and will lose easily that way. Sometimes this does not work though. I get emails every week from people that … [Read more...] about Dietrine carb blocker

She used it for probably 4 months and was not happy at all with the results and we were going to be broke if we continued.
