HI! All you people into World of Warcraft might want to check out the amazing T-shirts at Fighter Warehouse. Death Skulls on every t-shirt in the Xzavier clothing line-up. Amazing artistry has gone into this clothing line developed around the ever-popular death skull theme.

Could someone please tell me what is the attraction?

I love t-shirts as a medium of self-expression. I am not personally in any way enamoured with the idea of death, or skulls. I am glad that I have a skull, but I do not want to see skulls.

That usually means that they are no longer doing their job.

Not good on all accounts.

 I don’t see a skull on this Xzavier t-shirt!

However, that being said, the best place to find lots of skull-covered clothing in one place is Fighter Warehouse. And, if someone buys an Xzavier t-shirt at Fighter Warehouse, and tells their friends to go there also, then they get paid for the referral. Just do it online.

Fighter Warehouse’s affiliate program is the best on the internet. They will pay you 25 % if someone arrives at their site via your link and actually buys something within the next few months.

Try it, you will like it. And so will Fighter Warehouse. You can aslo call it Fighters Warehouse, although that is technically incorrrect. Your website will potentially get traffic from an additional 8,000 viewers that prefer that spelling.

Fighters Warehouse carries excellent pressure pants, pressure shorts, comfy and effective jock support, ball support, whatever you want to call it. Great support, under the evil name of Dirty Boxers.

That name is wrong on so many levels.

Okay, at least on two.

Fighters Warehouse carries high quality mouthguards and supplements. And anti-fungal powders and sprays.

A good scratch can lose the match.

Well.ca carries salve for all of your bruises and scrapes.

So tell all of your friends, children and grandchildren You need money for retirement. And a new pair of Dirty Boxers for comfy support. You don’t need to tell them that part, just the part about needing money for retirement. Force them to sell Fighter Warehouse products. Make sure that they set up their affiliate link under your affiliate link. Make sure that your affiliate link is under my website link, or I will have to kill you.

All my love,

Pat.

When I first read that the Canadian company Upaya Naturals provided online customers with raw food delights, I wondered what kind of idiot can’t just buy a raw carrot from the local food store and eat it.  Even if you are a shut-in, local stores deliver, so where is the market for Upaya Naturals?

Silly me. Upaya Naturals provides online shoppers with hard to find, all natural, vegan cheeses and ice creams that actually taste good while providing lots of nutrients.They arrive on ice to your very doorstep, where you can be waiting, crackers in hand, or spoon in fist, in eager anticipation of the yummy, delectable treats that are being delivered to your home. 

Cashew-based Ice Cream. It tastes like dairy ice cream, without the guilt.

If you find the wait too exciting, be sure to order aromatherapy essential oils that calm the nerves, and smell divine.

Get all of your favourite blender recipes at the ready also. Upaya Naturals carriesVitamix and Blendtec blenders, the cadillac of blenders/juicers on the market today. You can prepare bread mixtures, and soups, as well as smoothies and ice creams, without having to fiddle with numerous attachments. Push a button and you are off to the races.

The Vitamix Deluxe 5200 is touted as the best blender on the market, but the following videos offer conflicting evidence in this regard. You can also buy Vitamix at your friendly neighbourhood Costco store, if interested. You can save yourself the shipping fees that way, as they are presently on sale, and therefore cost the same as ordering from the company online. Ask for a demo before you buy.

The Vitamix Blendtec Kitchen Aid Challenge. You decide. The facts in these two videos conflict. Kitchen Aid is far less expensive and appears to do the trick.

The Vitamix Blendtec Challenge. 

 Why pay for Blendtec or for Vitamix if Kitchen Aid is just as efficient, if not moreso?  And it’s half the price at $199.00 How do they all fare with breadmaking? We want more tests please, before we take a Vitamix home!

Upaya Naturals also carries Superfoods, Greens etc. that are vegan-friendly. Power up so that you will have th strength inyour arms to lift that spoonful of healthy cashew-based ice cream to your lips, over and over again. After all, you have many delectable flavours to try. You need muscle mass.

So please, do yourself a favour and check out Upaya Naturals’ website.

I can hardly wait to try the cashew-based ice creams. I have never tried them before, but everyone says that they are great. I know that there are some almond and soy-based ice creams that are out there these days that are absolutely delicious. I wonder if the cashew-based ice creams give them a run for their money?

And don’t forget to brush your teeth! Yep. Upaya Naturals carries healthy,  flouride-free tooth cleansers also. And skincare products. And the kitchen sink. Okay, everything but.

Speaking of the kitchen sink. Upaya Naturals carries one of, if not the best, water filtration systems on the market today: Wellness Kitchen S-III Filtration. This countertop water filtration system can also be easily mounted under the sink with the purchase of an adapter kit. What is most wonderful about this Wellness filtration system is that trace mineral that we need for our health are added back to the water supply after filteration has occurred. If you are concerned about pharmaceuticals, heavy metals and fecal matter making it into your drinking and bathing water, this filtration system will give you the quality of water and the peace of mind you need.

Unless, of course, you enjoy all those pharmaceuticals in your water!

Perhaps we could just bottle it and sell it ourselves to those chronics residing in families that have purchased water filters.

Hmmm.

Just an evil, entrepreneurial thought.

Pat.

Herpes simplex sucks. Big time. 

Herpes simplex 1 is the virus that we associate with lip and mouth sores, commonly referred to as cold sores. Herpes simplex 2 is the kind that we usually refer to as genital herpes.

Cold mouth sores is the very strange keyword phrase that will drive internet readers to this site. I have to repeat it at least three times in the article to ensure traffic, so please excuse its annoying, but necessary presence. Otherwise, I am talking to myself, again.

What I did not know until now, is that herpes simplex 1 and 2 can be found in either area of the body through cross-contamination, so to speak.

Lovely.

Herpes simplex 1 usually takes around 14 days to run its course during an outbreak. The actual virus, once contracted, is believed to reside in the body for life, although it lies dormant most of the time.

Genital herpes outbreaks can take up to four weeks to run their course. These outbreaks become shorter in duration as time goes on. I was surprised to learn that one can contract genital herpes without a break in the skin or sexual intercourse per se. And one can be contagious without any outward signs of the virus being detectable.

Not good.

Definitely work with the advice of a doctor on this one.

Apparently, vitamin D and niacin can help to prevent outbreaks or shorten the time of an outbreak.

Dynamiclear can dry up herpes blisters (cold mouth sores) within 72 hours. It’s an all natural topical ointment which not only shortens the duration of the blisters, it also reduces the number of outbreaks, and comes with that all-important money-back guarantee.

Allellujah.

Please check out the Dynamiclear website for more information on this product. Ask your health professional for their advice on whether this product is right for you.

I’m not going to ask anyone. I’m just going to try it. I do not have genital herpes, and I don’t have any allergies to the listed ingredients, and I am not going to bother spending the time or energy on consulting my doctor about a cold sore. When it comes to cold mouth sores, I can live on the edge and trust my own judgment. But that’s just me.

Please read the information provided on the treatment and prevention of cold sores on the Dynamiclear  site. The website is very user friendly, clear and informative. Definitely enough information to assist any lay reader or health care professional in making an assessment of the potential safety and efficacy of the products offered.

Cold sores are unsightly and make people miserable. Dynamiclear lessens the agony by shortening the time of the oubreaks and the number and severity of outbreaks. Secondary outbreaks are usually less than the initial bouts, even without any type of intervention, but Dynamiclear has effectively lessened the number and severity of outbreaks even more than is normally experienced without any topical application.

Do yourself a favour and give it a go. You will not regret it.

Festering running sores are not your friends. Why keep them around any longer than is necessary?

Unless you want to scare the neighbours, or keep that extra piece of pie for yourself. Touch your lips, touch the box, and voila, it’s reserved just for you!

Drink out of the milk carton and you’re a dead man. Dog house material.

Not that anyone reading this blog would ever even consider drinking out of the milk container at anytime.

Cold mouth sores not withstanding.

Right?

Pat.

Please, please, please, go there.

So, you’re still here are you?

I know; I am addicting.

Don’t feel like checking it out, then at least know this:

The American Dental Association announced back on June 16th, 2000, that the new and improved cavity-fighting tool that beats fluoride hands down, is none other than calcium.

What a surprise.

In January of 2006, researchers overwhelmingly supported the use of a calcium-rich substance called Cavistat as the best cavity-fighter. Ask about Cavistat at DentalHygiene.ca.

Ask your dentist to use it and dump the fluoride.

Stand up for yourselves and your children and grandchildren.

If you don’t, you might not be standing up at all. Fluoride, it turns out, causes osteoporosis.

Osteoporosis, mottled and/or crumbly teeth, heart palpitations, and a cup of tea that sends you into hyperspace.

WTF?!

Why take fluoride?

Yes. That’s what I was thinking with those initials.

Ahem.

Dental hygiene.ca, dental hygiene.ca. These keywords will help to take the pain away. Because they will bring you into my website and I will be happy to hook you up with the NYSCOF.

Just call me the Cavistat Kid. Gleaming, shiny white teeth blinding an unsuspecting universe. My disarming smile stopping people in their tracks.

Don’t laugh. It actually happened.

I was working retail for a while last year when film was slow, and I smiled at an elderly customer. She was actually startled and jumped back two feet. So did a gentleman that same week. They both laughed and said that they had not expected such a lovely, warm smile in that usually hostile store.

The fact that they were in shock was all the more surprising since it was a Sallie Anne outlet. That is the Salvation Army store for those of you not familiar with the term. You know, God is love and all of that. Smiles are usually included, one would think.

Well, think again! They actually have a”Pit of Damnation” in which poor people seeking refuge in their shelters are permitted to indulge in a cigarette. I kid you not. 

Yes. The Cavistat Kid.The new cartoon hero of soon-to- be-released anti-fluoride, pro-calcium toothpaste commercials around the world.

Hey. You are supposed to be laughing with me, not at me. Just stop, or I’ll have to bite you in the knee cap.

With my perfect, fluoride-free pearly whites.

The union of scientists for the EPA has asked for fluoride’s removal from toothpaste and water. It apparently has been proven, unequivacally, to do more harm than good. And the risk to children’s health in particular, is not worth the risk of any supposed benefit it may have for a small portion of the population’s tooth enamel.

Children swallow toothpaste. So do a lot of adults. Too much fluoride-filled toothpaste causes very bad stomach aches, and less than a tube of toothpaste can kill a 25 pound child.

Two tubes can kill an adult.

CSI says so.

If you can’t trust CSI, well, I just don’t know who you can trust.

I remember playing “inventor” as a child. Toothpaste was often the main ingredient in my mad scientist concoctions.This was long before the U.S. and Canadian governments insisted that fluoride be listed as a poison on the toothpaste tubes in 1997.

I remember parents happily allowing their children to play with their toothbrushes and the toothpaste tube while in the bathtubs. Limitless amounts of toothpaste were being sucked between their children’s teeth and down their gullets. Parents thought that this would be beneficial for their precious baby boos.

I wonder how many children’s commonly reported bed-time stomach aches were a result of this innocent  practice, and not an excuse for more attention, as it was often thought.

I have recently been using a fluoridated toothpaste, since we ran out of our fluoride-free one, and I was housebound due to a torn knee. I love my teeth, and am happy to have a shiny, white, clean smile so that I can mesmerize my victims into providing me with favours.

You can imagine my dismay when I realized my machiavellian plans would all be falling by the wayside because my gums were bleeding for no apparent reason. No plaque or tartar build-up; I just had my teeth cleaned recently.

I went to the trusty internet to find out what might be causing the bleeding gums. A site called Doctor’s Home Remedies stated that anyone having teeth and gum difficulties without obvious cause should stop using fluoride toothpaste, as too much, ie. any fluoride could be the cause of these problems.

And many other problems in the body also. ADD and ADHD included.

What?…..

I was shocked to learn that fluoride, even in the so-called small amounts found in toothpaste and public water supplies, can contribute to thyroid issues, arthritis, low levels of digestive enzymes, weak joints, loose and brittle teeth, and mottled enamel.

Fluoride combines with other chemicals, you see, so the positive results for tooth enamel are dependent upon other, uncontrollable factors. Fluoride dangers are numerous. I will dedicate a later post to a more in-depth scientific paper on the extent to which fluoride can affect our bodies, with the emphasis on why.

For the time being, please just take the EPA’s word for it, and stop using any toothpaste, water, or mouthwash with fluoride in it.

Fluoride can actually kill you, or leave you toothless.

Or dead and toothless.

How undignified.

How insane to even consider putting this stuff in our water supply and toothpaste.

I gimped out to the car and hobbled into the drug store in order to find a fluoride-free toothpaste. There was only one product available in the major pharmaceutical franchise known as Shopper’s Drug Mart.

Shopper’s carries Tom’s of Maine brand toothpaste in a number of natural fluoride-free flavours. I used it for only one evening and one morning, and my bleeding gums healed and have stayed healthy ever since. I am never going back to a fluoride toothpaste again, not even in an emergency. I’ll suck it up and use salt or baking soda if I can’t get out to the store.

Since fluoride can also cause heart palpitations, and a hyper-sensitive response to a simple cup of tea, it is totally evil and should no longer be scraped out of the smoke stacks of fertilizer factories and dumped  into the water and dental paste of an unsuspecting, and uninformed general public.

The general public might be ignorant, but those in the know who allow this poisoning of the populous to continue unabated as a means of getting rid of a deadly environmental contaminant which is an offshoot of fertilizer manufacuring, are criminals.

Hurting their own families for a profit.

Support the Environmental Protection Agency in their scientifically-backed fight to free us from fluoride poisoning.

Solay toothpastes, like all of their products, are given the green light for poison-free and allergy-free cosmetic products by the U.S.-based international cosmetic watch-dog, the Environmental Energy Workers SkinDeep cosmetic database site, www.cosmeticsdatabase.com. No fluoride dangers lurking in any of Solay’s products. (And yes, “fluoride dangers” is a keyword phrase that I need to repeat to drive traffic to this site. So is fluoride-free toothpaste. Hee hee; I sneaked it in. I’m so sneaky. Not.)

Tom’s of Maine carry one fluoridated toothpaste that they have recently and most misguidedly added to their dental cleaning arsenal. They have bowed to the pressures of a misinformed public.

Don’t sell out to The Man, Tom. Stick with fluoride-free toothpaste. Be a man.

Well.ca is an excellent internet company providing a number of fluoride-free toothpastes on-line. It has affordable products and offers a 60-day money-back guarantee, should you feel the need to return any purchase. They are a new internet presence, offering over 10,000 non-prescription health products for your purchasing pleasure.

Don’t forget to cross-reference any of your potential cosmetic purchases at the Environmental Energy Worker’s SkinDeep www.cosmeticsdatabase.com. This independently funded body of cosmetic scientists have done the research. All you have to do to stay free of toxic additives and chemicals is use it.

Find your safe products at Well.ca and  SolayWellness.com.

Check my post on safe toothpastes and mouthwash. I discuss this group in greater detail there.

The EWG researchers stand alone, like the Environmental Protection Agency.They are not in the pocket of any pharmaceutical company. They depend upon donations to keep their website and research up and running. The EWG uses a stoplight system of assessment with regard to the safety of cosmetic and toiletry products on the market today.

Green means that the EWG have not found any dangerous compounds which are carcinogenic or pathogenic. It does not mean that one is safe from allergies, however. Natural products, as we all know by this point in time, can cause allergic reactions just like man-made chemicals. All the ingredients are clearly listed, so that you can easily guage your own sensitivities to any products.

I am personally going to start with the Solay toothpowder and see what it is like. And their face cream. Solay carry an anti-aging cream and I will spread it on my toast if that will help!

I love toast.

And they sell coffee and tea too!

And caramels.

And chocolate.

And granola.

All organically grown ingredients.

That means I can eat more.

And what on earth are these salt lamps that they advocate?

Solay carries natural salt crystal lamps, which give off a soft, ambient glow and provide negative ions to the atmosphere. Negative ions are beneficial in that they apparently make the air easier to breathe for people with asthma, chronic lung conditions and air-borne irritant allergies. They are also touted in the literature to improve memory and learning capabilities.

I will look into the scientific basis for these additional claims in my next blog.

What was I just saying?

Solay Wellness carries products for your pets too!

Delicious vegan cookies, and cruely-free shampoo, and pet beds. Your cat might be a killer, and your dog might kill cats, but at least their little tummies will have one less evilly-gotten thing in them with these tasty, healthy morsels from Solay.

Check out the Solay Wellness website.
