Hello, I am trying to find alternatives to prescription pain meds. I am looking for something that would help for pretty severe pain and inflammation in muscles, joints, and ligaments. Not interested in anything illegal, or alcoholic. Thank you.

I have been kind of looking around to find a curriculum to start formal schooling with our nearly 4 year old. I was wanting one that is thorough, and all we would need, and cheap. I found one that I think is really great. It seems rather old fashioned, which is very appealing to me. Some of...

I had bought some kefir grains a while back, and tried to use them regular. I think the problem is that, I seem to have over active grains. If I leave the grains in a quart of milk for 12 hours, it is already starting to separate. 24 hours, and it is pretty much curds and whey, totally...

I saw this today, and I was wondering if anybody had heard of this or had more info. According to this, the Fresh Express ready washed salads have been using this technology since the end of May. It mentions something of using lactic acid, and peroxy-something acids...

Hello, I am just wondering about this diet. I used it once before, following it to the letter, and lost 12 lbs. You make a cabbage based veggie soup, and eat as much as you want of it, and certain things each day for 7 days. Other than being hungry, I didn't have any problems. I gained the...

Some might laugh at that title, but I am trying to figure out what oil we can use to fry with. We use olive oil for most things, but not sure if it can be used for frying, and it would probably be too expensive, even if it could. I am thinking about ghee, but not sure how expensive that would...

This may seem a little odd to be posted here, but I was just reading some posts, and the phrase "Spare the rod, spoil the child" kept coming up, and being stated as a bible verse. I looked it up. It is not from the bible. Though many scripture verses seem to be in agreement with this phrase...
