Review:

I absolutely love ice cream, but absolutely hate trying to scoop it out of the container when it’s frozen solid! I have bent many spoons trying to get that stuff out. I couldn’t have gotten this SUMO Ice Cream Scoop at a better time. I just got some EDY’s Frozen Custard to try, and this was the perfect way to test out the new scooper.
This scoop worked beautifully. It cut right into the ice cream with ease, and scooped it right out like it was butter. I was quite impressed. This scoop is strong and really gets in there and makes a nice looking scoop of ice cream. I’m just happy I didn’t have to strain my already pained wrists or bend a perfectly good spoon trying to dig out ice cream. This is a great scoop.

Now that the weather is getting nice, and I’m getting more and more in the mood for ice cream, I can see this scoop getting used quite often! I have to say that this is one scoop that everyone should keep on hand as it’s fantastic!

Measurements are taken through an automatic, fast and easy process using Measure and Inflate technology. The pressurized arm cuff auto-inflates with the touch of a button and automatically releases the pressure when the measurement is complete.
This MeasuPro Digital Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor features a bright LCD display with separate touch buttons for each individual user. It features a unique desktop design so you can easily store this device in your home or office.

The BPM80A records up to 120 blood pressure readings, 60 readings per user, with date and time memory recall. Graphical readings are classified in five different levels and color coded to represent the reading's level of hypertension. It also calculates and averages your blood pressure based on the last 3 readings and detects irregular heartbeats and any arrhythmias.

The arm cuff fits upper arm circumference of 23-32 cm. The MeasuPro blood pressure monitor ships with 4 AAA batteries (included), medium to large sized arm cuff, carrying bag, and user manual. 2 year manufacturer's warranty included.

Review:

I live in a household with a couple of people with high blood pressure, very high blood pressure at times. They need to constantly monitor their blood pressure to keep up on it as it can spike very high at times. If they tend to trend on the high side often, they need to call their doctor’s for a medication adjustment.

I found this product to be TOP NOTCH in my book. It is very accurate and very easy to use. One household member took it to the doctor’s appointment with them to check its accuracy, and it was very accurate. The doctor actually really liked this machine. I also like that it has two personal recording settings to keep track of two different users. This is very useful in my household as we have two people that need to keep track of their readings.

Other cool features include the ability of it to be able to detect irregular heartbeats and arrhythmias. I also love that it has a colored back-lit screen that lights up red for when your blood pressure is too high. This is a very nice feature. It quickly alerts you to a problem.

Overall, this MeasuPro BPM is fantastic and has been a lifesaver for our household. We have been exceptionally impressed with this machine and it gets used several times daily. Because of the daily readings, it has actually helped on household member in a medication adjustment. The doctor was happy that this was available to use at home.

If you want an easy to use, accurate and reliable blood pressure monitor, than you should definitely consider purchasing MeasuPro BPM on Amazon.com. We absolutely love it in this house!

B12 Love – Vitamin B12 Energy Patch

About:

B12 Love patches are absorbed through the skin = increasing efficiency bypassing inefficient nutrient absorption in the stomach. One patch gives you energy for the week without having to remember to pop pills or risk and upset stomach.

B12 pills have less than a 2% absorption rate which means if you take a 5,000 MCG pill you absorb less than 100 MCG. The B12 Patch is 1200 MCG and absorbs directly into your body. 1200 > 100. Bet the B12 Pills did not mention that fact.

Superior Quality with 1200 Mcg B12 (methylcobalamin) and 400 Mcg Folic Acid with super easy to use patches. B12 is used for increased energy, reduced fatigue, decreased memory loss, boosting mood, increased concentration, improving the immune system and slowing aging plus B12 is required by the body for proper function and development of the brain, nerves, and blood cells. It's now wonder B12 has been called the ultimate superfood for the body!

Science of B12 LOVE Patches: Methylcobalamin (methyl B12) is the ONLY form of vitamin B12 that is a direct participant in homocysteine metabolism. When B12 is taken orally studies have shown that only about 1% of the B12 makes it into the bloodstream. B12 LOVE patches with 1200 Mcg methyl B12 are more effective than "high potency" B12 pills that have a less than a 2% absorption rate.


Review:

I am all about Vitamin B12 as it’s essential to help maintain your nerve and red blood cells. B12 is also needed to make DNA. A lack of B12 can end up leading to anemia, cause weakness, lightheadedness, depression, and tiredness. Sometimes vegetarians or vegans (or those who eat little meat or dairy) may not get enough of this essential vitamin.
One thing I like about this B12 patch is that I do NOT have to worry about having to take supplements every day! I just wear the patch and go about my business!

This B12 Patch supposedly delivers a consistent amount of B12 through a dime-sized patch you wear behind your earlobe, it’s that easy.

Here are some of the most common symptoms of deficiency (according to naturalnews.com):

* Chest pain or shortness of breath
* Fatigue or unexplained weakness
* Dizziness, trouble with balance, and fainting
* Confusion, memory loss or dementia
* Coldness, numbness or tingling in the hands and feet
* Slow reflexes or diminished nervous system function
* Pale skin or yellowing of the skin
* Sore mouth and tongue

After knowing these, I think it may be possible that I wasn’t getting enough B12, so I was happy to have these patches to try out. I could definitely use some extra energy as I’ve been working extra hard lately at work and home. I have a lot going on and no energy!

So have these worked for me? I think that maybe they have. I feel like I have a little more energy that I had before using the patches, and I don’t have the issues with my memory that I had been having (which had been getting annoying at times). I honestly just feel better, overall. I don’t necessarily eat the best, and sometimes I just have to grab and go when I can. So I don’t think I get all the nutrients I should. I also don’t take a multivitamin like I should be.

Overall, I love that these are easy to use, I don’t have to take a daily supplement, and that they seem to make me feel more energized and really seem to make a difference in my memory. I’m writing fewer notes on the back of my hand.

You can get your own B12 Love patches on Amazon.com
