Ignore the Awkward is yet another informative and enjoyable book by Uffe Ravnskov, which explains in detail how the Cholesterol Myths are Kept Alive. I’ve read Uffe Ravnskov’s other two books: The Cholesterol Myths and Fat and Cholesterol are Good for You. Each of these books would serve as a good lesson for anyone who is interested in opening their mind up to the truth on fat, cholesterol and statins.
So, how Does Ignore the Awkward differ from Uffe Ravnskov’s other two books? First off, let me tell you what I know about Uffe Ravnskov, the author.

Allergy Buster is a new rendition of the popular, all-natural nasal spray, Sinus Buster.  If you've read my reviews, you know that I'm a big fan of sinus buster capsaicin nasal spray. My Sinus Allergy relief needs tend to lean towards the sinus side of the equation, particularly at night when my nasal passages get stuffy while sleeping on my side. Still, there are times, after mowing the lawn, taking a walk or bike ride, when I come down with the sneezing and runny nose symptoms from allergies.  So, the question for me is: In addition to it's supposed allergy relief benefits, will Allergy Buster provide the same sinus congestion relief as Sinus Buster?

Chloraseptic

If you are currently wondering how to get rid of a sore throat, you may not be familiar with chloraseptic throat spray. There are few over-the-counter remedie, such as Sinus Buster, that provide relief for me, but chloraseptic throat spray is a secret I've used for years. If you've used a throat spray, the obvious immediate benefit is that it numbs the pain of sore throats, gums, canker sores and other oral aches and pains. But, does using a chloraseptic throat spray actually answer the question of how to get rid of a sore throat entirely?

What you Need to Know if You're considering Monovision or Monovision Lasik

Monovision reviews on the internet are difficult to find.

Consider this the complete review on monovision from one who has been using it for 11 years.

Eyeglass Frames

VSP Vision Insurance is a vision insurance plan that covers routine eye exams, eye glass lens, eye glass frames and contact lenses. Let's face it, buying any type of individual insurance is a real drag on the finances and monthly cash flow. Insurance is something you don't want to use very often and when you do, it is still not likely to make things completely free. Eyeglasses cost a lot of money. If your employer doesn't offer you something like the VSP vision insurance plan; you'll be glad to know it is available to individuals without employee vision plans. A few months ago, I found a couple of good Individual Dental Plans. Once of these affordable dental plans was good enough to replace even the employer-sponsored Dental Plan I have through my company. Is the same true with Individual Vision Insurance or VSP Vision Insurance? I do not have a vision insurance plan through my employer, but wife does through her school district. The vision insurance plan through the school would cost us about $28 a month out of pocket for the family. Most plans like these include free eye exams, $100-$150 on glasses frames and and many of them cover free eye glass lenses and contacts. Now, I'm no dummy. I know what a racket those eyeglasses stores can be. You'll want anti-glare, scratch resistant lenses; thinner lenses; better lenses and you will end up paying much more above and beyond the free lenses provided by your vision insurance plan. None-the-less, a vision insurance plan might save you some money if you're taking 4 or 5 members of your family to the eye doctor once a year. Let's take a look at the VSP Vision insurance plan which offers private coverage for individuals: Read the rest of this entry
