Temperature taking is a breeze with the Exergen TemporalScanner™ Thermometer

With fall just around the corner it's time to start thinking about cold and flu season. I know for me it's not my favorite thing to think about, but as a mom I do. And any way I can make it easier on my family and myself to get through the better. This year we'll be using my new Exergen  TemporalScanner™ Thermometer for a little less stressful temperature taking. I've always hated the old fashioned mercury thermometers, and many times even the digital versions you place under your tongue aren't any better. It's hard to know exactly where to place them, and honestly who wants to put a thermometer in their mouth that someone else has had in their mouth. Yep a mom of two children here, so trust me on this one. Thankful with the TemporalScanner™ there won't be anymore excuses of why they don't want mom to take their temperature. Heck I can even do it while they are still asleep!

The TemporalScanner™ comes with four ways to make it even easier to take a temperature:

Made in the United States, the Exergen TemporalScanner™ is the number one preferred thermometer by both nurses and pediatricians, and is backed by more than 70 clinical studies proving its accuracy.



Sold in major retailers including Wal-Mart, Target, Walgreens, Rite Aid, Costco, Babies “R” Us, Toys “R” Us, Kroger and BJ’s, the Smart Glow thermometer’s suggested retail price is $49.99. For more information visit Exergen’s website.

Fight Sore Throats with GoGargle!

I can remember growing up my dad telling me to gargle with salt water when I complained of a sore throat. I can also remember cringing as I swished around his salt water mix in the back of my throat. I couldn't stand the taste during or after and eventually stopped telling him when my throat hurt because I knew what he was going to say. Yes I admit now it did help, but I was just a kid then and I didn't want to go through having that taste in my mouth. Now I don't have to worry about that awful aftertaste because GoGargle! comes in a minty fresh. I haven't had the opportunity to try GoGargle! for myself yet because I want to save the tablets for when I really need them to see just how well they work.

SmartyPants Gummy Vitamins: Not Just For Kids! #Giveaway - Ends 12-31

Looking for a tasty and easy all-in-one solution to cover the gaps in your diet, but overwhelmed with the choices available? Want to get in on the gummy vitamin fun, but think it’s just for kids? SmartyPants created the first and only 3-in-1 Gummy Vitamin for adults. Made in California in a GMP certified facility, always gluten & casein free with no artificial sweeteners or High-Fructose Corn Syrup. SmartyPants’ Adult Complete are made with Eco, Natural, and Organic ingredients. The only Multivitamin + Omega 3s + Vitamin D gummy on the market, SmartyPants is the highest quality solution that happens to taste absolutely delicious.

My Take:
I had the opportunity to try these out for myself recently and I was actually very surprised at how much I liked them. I had been taking one of those hard to swallow "horse pills" for my multi-vitamin intake. Now I don't have to choke them down anymore because I can chew the gummy vitamins and enjoy them while I'm doing so! They are coated with a light sprinkle of sugar but that doesn't make them super sweet. I like to take them in the morning as soon as I get up so after I eat breakfast there isn't any gummy left behind in my teeth.  Now I just have to keep them hidden so my daughter doesn't try to steel them for herself!

SmartyPants Gummy Vitamins for adults are available online and in many Whole Foods as well as CVS Pharmacies. Click here to see if they are in a store near you, and here to print your $5-off coupon.

Children’s Mucinex Multi-Symptom Cold #ChildrensMucinex

As a member of the Smiley360 blogger team I was provided with a travel cup, blanket, Toy Story 3 DVD, coloring sheet & crayons, and Children's Mucinex Multi-Symptom Cold product. All wonderful additions to a stay home from school sick day. I fortunately didn't have any of these days with my kids after receiving my package so we haven't had to use the Mucinex yet.  But we have definitely put the other products to good use.  We did have some sick days earlier in the year with the weather going up and down what seemed like almost every other day. And I can honestly say Children's Mucinex has always been my first go to when my kids are congested from a cold. It's the best product to relieve a stuffy nose, cough and chest congestion, and my youngest even likes the berry flavor.  They've never been big on grape so I was excited to see that the Children's Mucinex was berry. And thanks to this kit I now have a full bottle on hand just in case a summer cold pops up...you never know!

Shopping for Member's Mark 4x Probiotics at Sam's Club #DigestiveHealth

I'll be the first to admit I am not the best at watching the foods I eat sometimes.  I have gotten better since I began exercising and eating healthier this summer.  But of couscous like most I sometimes fall off track and find myself eating things that just aren't that good for my body, or it's digestive system.  You know what i mean that 9pm Taco Bell run for example.  So when I was offered the opportunity to try the Member's Mark 4x Probiotic at Sam's Club I thought sure why not. So off I went on my shopping venture. (I am a little late on getting this up do to a surgery in my home, this actual trip occurred on October 26th)

First stop, stop and smell the roses mums. They sure are beautiful this time of year. Okay now onto my original destination. 

Finding the location of the Member's Mark 4x Probiotic was actually pretty easy.  And the bright green box was not hard to find.

I've not done much research about probiotics, but I am ready to give them a try. I am very curious to how this will change my digestive health and to see if it has me feeling any different day to day.

CLOSED: Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies

As parents we know that when a child is constipated, it can be an uncomfortable situation for the whole family.  In fact, Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies, a delicious, dentist-approved, daily fiber supplement for kids ages 2-11, recently surveyed moms and found that 54% of them indicated that their child became irritable or crabby when experiencing constipation. What’s more, 72% of moms told us that they feel guilty, worried and frustrated because their child is uncomfortable thanks to constipation. No thank you, constipation!

To help support better digestive health and keep kids regular*, Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies, a recent recipient of the PTPA Seal of Approval for excellence in family products, wants to offer a few tips to help you slip more healthy, fiber-rich foods into your kids’ daily diet.

DO YOU HAVE A “REGULAR” KID?

Tips to Help Resolve an “Uncomfortable” Situation and Keep Things Moving

According to experts, the leading cause of constipation is insufficient fluid intake, changes in diet, and not getting enough fiber. Since bouts of constipation can often be avoided with a few simple lifestyle and dietary changes, Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies offers four easy tips that may help make big difference:

• Drink to Go: The colon acts as your body's fluid regulator. When you don’t drink enough, it will borrow water to put back into the body, causing the stools to harden. More fluids in your diet puts more fluids in your bowel, lessening the chance of constipation.
• Boost Fiber: Fiber is essential for helping support proper gastrointestinal health, and it is especially good for children because it helps to keep them regular*. However, reports show that 90% of children don’t get enough fiber**. While healthy food options are the best way to boost fiber, let’s be real – it can be hard to make sure kids eat enough veggies and grains to get their full recommended fiber on a daily basis. Sugar-free, dentist-approved Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies are a great way to help bridge the gap between the AAP’s recommendations and the actual amount of fiber consumed by most children. The recommended serving of three gummies per day adds 6 total grams of fiber to a child's daily diet (which is equivalent to 21 spears of asparagus or ½ cup of broccoli!).
• Get Moving: Exercise, along with a balanced diet, helps provide the foundation for a healthy, active lifestyle for every child. Exercise also improves digestion and speeds the passage of food through the intestines. A moving body gets the bowels moving, too.
• Get on a Schedule: Encourage your child to have a bowel movement at set times during the day, mainly after breakfast. Encourage him or her to respond promptly to the urge to go. It’s important for kids to realize they should go when they have to go, versus hold it in.

Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies are available in CVS, Walmart and Target stores and supermarkets and retailers nationwide as well as online, for the suggested retail price of $7.99 for a bottle of 60 gummies.

For more information and giveaway offers, connect with Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies on Facebook & Twitter, where Pedia-Lax and parents come together for:

·        Easy-to-make, fiber-rich recipes and snack ideas

My Take:

These are heaven sent! I do really mean that too.  My daughter has had trouble easily going #2 for as long as I can remember.  We even talked to her doctor about it. Come to find out this is a very common problem among children. They said that we should try pear juice (have you ever tried to find pear juice?) and that should help her.  Well after running from store to store trying to find pear juice with no luck, I had given up. That was until I came across Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies. I just knew I had to get some and give them a try. I was so excited when a few days after taking them my daughter was so excited to report that her poopy came out easy!  Yes she was truly excited, the poor kid had such a time before sitting and straining on the potty.  I can only imagine how nice it must have been for her to finally have that relief.  The bottle says to take 3 gummies a day, so we spread them out with each meal.  We've since gone down to just 1 a day with everything seeming to still be doing good.  This is one product I will definitely be keeping stocked. As you can see from her picture she is one happy little girl. Every day first thing she runs to me with her bottle and begs for her gummy!

CLOSED: Cystex Liquid Cranberry Complex Giveaway 5-23

Cystex Liquid Cranberry Complex with Proantinox

If you’ve ever been struck with a urinary tract infection (UTI), you know how disruptive and miserable they can be. But did you know how prevalent they are, particularly among women? Urinary tract infections (UTIs) account for more than 8.3 million doctor visits each year, making it the second most common type of infection in the body.  And for many women it’s not once and done…20 percent of women who have one UTI will have another, and 30 percent of this group will have yet another!

For women with recurrent UTIs (that’s three or more in a 12-month period), cranberries have long played a role in helping promote better urinary health. However, as much as drinking cranberry juice may help better your bladder, drinking eight glasses a day can be intolerable, not to mention the added sugar and calories. A wonderful alternative is just one tablespoon of new Cystex Liquid Cranberry Complex with Proantinox taken daily. This sugar-free cranberry dietary supplement is way more effective than cranberry tablets in helping to and is clinically proven to promote urinary health.

Cystex Liquid Cranberry Complex combines the health benefit of eight glasses of cranberry juice in one tablespoon of its unique, convenient Proantinox cranberry formula. More than just cranberry concentrate, its proprietary blend also contains D-Mannose (from cranberries), bromelain (from pineapple), inulin, and vitamin C, a winning combination designed to boost bladder health.

In addition, Cystex Liquid Cranberry Complex:

• Is lactose-, gluten- and sugar-free
• Is only one calorie per tablespoon
• Contains 17 times more proanthocyanidins (PACs) that cranberry tablets

My Take:

I have never personally had a urinary tract infection before, but I have many family members that have.  I can only imagine the discomfort and pain associated with them.  I passed the Cystex Liquid Cranberry Complex onto someone in my family that is one of those sufferers so hopefully it will help her out. If I did however suffer from urinary tract infections I would definitely be getting some of this to help me out because I am not a fan of cranberry juice itself. It just has too strong of a taste.  I would much rather take one dose of something then glass after glass after glass of something I don't really like.

HALLS® Spring Allergy Fact Sheet

HALLS® starts working within 10 seconds to soothe allergy related coughs and sore throats.

HALLS is a great tasting cough drop that quickly soothes coughs and sore throats associated with allergies.

HALLS offers affordable relief for irritating coughs and scratchy, sore throats caused by spring allergies.

 

My Take:

I received Mentho-Lyptus®, Honey-Lemon, and Cherry HALLS to help with my spring allergies. I never would have thought about taking HALLS for my allergies before this.

I'll be keeping a stock of HALLS year round now. They were already part of my winter stock for colds, and now they'll be part of my stock for allergy season too!

CLOSED: Bioron Sabadil® Review/Giveaway 4-20

About Sabadil®:
Allergies interfere in our lives year-round—they make our noses run, our eyes itch, and we can’t stop sneezing. According to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI), allergies affect about 50 million Americans each year—disrupting our daily routine and making it impossible to concentrate at work, during family time, or while out with friends.

That’s where Sabadil® steps in. A complete treatment solution, Sabadil contains a blend of homeopathic medicines that helps address various allergy-related problems including hay fever and other upper respiratory symptoms, such as itchy and runny nose, sneezing, and itchy and watery eyes. Sabadil works safely and naturally without causing side effects such as drowsiness or sleeplessness, and it is non-habit forming. There’s also no risk of overdose and no interactions with other medications.  The tablets dissolve quickly under the tongue; no water, chewing or swallowing is required—making the medicine easy to take anytime, anywhere. More information can be found by visiting http://www.boironusa.com/products/sabadil.php.

My Take: 
I suffer from allergies and so does my husband, son, and daughter.  Yes we are all a mess, I blame it on the fact that we live in the country and there is a field next to our house that is planted every year. I am sure it's not to blame for all of our problems, but I do notice when they are harvesting that some of us are really affected. I have tried several of the products in the Bioron line and have had great results with them all. I would say I am looking forward to testing out the Sabadil® but in a way that wouldn't be true. I don't want to suffer with allergy symptoms, but I am looking forward to trying a product from a company I have come to trust over the years.

Giveaway CLOSED - Congratulations to the winner you have been notified via email and have 48 hours to reply or a new winner will be chosen.

Win it: One lucky reader will win a package of Sabadil®. This giveaway will end April 20th at 10 PM EST. The winner will have 48 hours to respond to my email. If no response, a new winner will be chosen. Open to residents of the US.
