And, BTW, vitamin C and calcium are very good for preventing wrinkles.

Face Creams
I was wondering if any one has any good suggestions for face creams. I use to use the Mary Kay face cream line, but I would like to try something else. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
tried hormonal creams?
myself, i'm meno or post menopausal; but now that i've tried these creams for my hot flashes, i see that they can also be used for PMS symptoms. i got my online at either drugstore.com or vitaminshoppe.com. What seems to be working best for me is the Progest (Emerita) or Progestacare (Lifeflo).
Creams make me itch even more, what I have used is Aveeno skin relief body wash, not the packets
you dissolve in the water, but the actual wash that costs anywhere between $6-7 depending on where you live and was with that 2-3 times a day. You can try that too and see if it helps her any.
Vitamin B6
I was told helps with PMS symptoms, but I don't know about St. John's wort. Look at the ingredients, is it a combo?
My GYN said to take vitamin B6.
But, I suffered so bad with this along with heavy cycles (14 days on) that I finally had a hysterectomy (left with cervix and ovaries). The back pain was horrendous as well during these times. Finally, after 8 years (I'll be 38 in a few months), I have found relief from the horrible PMS. I'd go from crying to screaming to loving to hating to pitiful to in bed to not wanting to go to bed... Are you getting the picture? These emotions lasted 2 weeks and then was "on" for 2 weeks and I never had relief, never until I had the hysterectomy. I felt like a million bucks 2 hours postop - no lie! I was home within 24 hours (pleaded with GYN to just let me go home) and I have a new woman since. I doubt they'll do a hysto though just for PMS, but like I said I've been there and the only thing she recommended was vitamin B6 and Yoga. Definitely see a doctor though....

I take Biotin which is a B vitamin.

Vitamin K does exactly the contrary, it
COUNTERACTS the blood thinning.
So, people whose blood has become too thin by possible overdosing on blood thinners, SHOULD eat foods containing a lot of vitamin K.
They should especially eat yoghurt which contains a lot of vitamin K.
Aspirin is a strong blood thinner due to containing salicylates.
There are also a lot of foods that contain salicylates and people who take prescription blood thinners, like Coumadin, Heparin, Plavix etc... should avoid those.
You can Google foods that act as blood thinners, opposite foods that contain a lot of vitamin K.
They have the opposite effect.
I think green vegatables also contain vitamin K and will help stop excessive bleeding.
NO BASHING, please!
Vitamin D question
I don't get outside much these days and wonder if anyone knows if you can get vitamin D from sun coming through the window?
My mom has osteoporosis, so I figure I better do what I can!
Thanks. 
You can take a Vitamin D supplement. nm

Vitamin D is very important
A lack of vitamin D is the cause of ricketts. It doesn't happen that often in the US any more because of all of the fortified foods we get, but if you don't go outside much at all, it can be a real concern. There was a story about a hugely obese man - like 900 pounds obese - who had horrible pain and it turned out to be a lack of vitamin D. THe only way your body can metabolize vitamin D is by exposure to sunlight.
Doctors always want to make sure that women who are older or at risk for osteoporosis take Calcium and Vitamin D. The Vitamin D helps the body metabolize the calcium.
You should probably take a calcium supplement as well, if you aren't already.
Hope your rib pain goes away!
Vitamin D deficiency?
Anyone ever been diagnosed with this?
My rheumatologist's office called this morning to tell me that my blood tests showed a deficiency. My doctor is going to call this afternoon to discuss it with me. Apparently, it's not so uncommon in regions that lack sunshine?
Which vitamin for hair and nails?
Is it vitamin D? My hair will only get to a certain length and seems like it stops growing. Any ideas on something to help it grow more?
Vitamin Water XXX flavor and
I go through about a pitcher a day of green tea that I make with raw sugar and honey. And, of course, Welch's -- it is so good for you.
LOL! Yogurt is good as it contains a lot of vitamin K
it helps with blood clotting.
If people have not enough blood platelets, then they suffer from
Thrombocytopenia.
No bashing, please.
I am only a humble MT who learned a lot through atudying and MTing.
Thanks!
Try Palmer's Cocoa Butter with vitamin E.
I had a similar problem and this worked for me. My husband even uses it and likes it. I like the unscented type. Good Luck!
I read that a lack of vitamin D and boron can
cause psoriasis. The article said that a lot of vegetarians don't get psoriasis because they have a diet high in boron which helps with the conversion of vitamin D. It is because vegetarians eat food high in boron and vitamin D, i.e., veggies, fruit, etc, and the soild the veggies are grown in is high in these nutrients.
There was a post on here about helping psoriasis so I thought I would throw that in! Hope it helps.
Cranberry juice may work better than vitamin....

Is this the Vitamin Water that Coca Cola bought?
I had one for the first time today, fruit punch. Good stuff :)
The intake of vitamin K helps against spider veins. ..... sm
But be careful, do not take too much, only from food sources, yoghurt is a very good source of vitamin K.
There are creams which contain vitamin C.
If you want to take supplemental vitamin K in tablet form, first check with your doctor regarding the dosage.
I had some spider veins in my face, but those disappeared when I started to put vaseline in my face.
I had heard Vitamin D was a good source for bones,
of course and being as I along with others on here do not get out as much as we should sometimes, had heard maybe I should take. I have pain in my ribs (checked for other things and scans, x-rays turned out ok) so started this morning with 4000 units. Anyone else take and if so what dosage? My ribs were hurting before I got out of bed and since seem to be feeling some better.
A lot of gastric bypass patients have vitamin D deficiency
also iron, calcium, and B12. But I have known other people who also had a D deficiency.
I have heard L-Lynsine (vitamin) is good to take. Supposedly it decreases sm
the time of outbreak, but also minimizes you from future outbreaks if you add it to your daily vitamin regimen.
Might try valerian root capsules or 5HTP or melatonin, in vitamin section

Sorry.. I meant
to say that they will assess a penalty on you this year. If you are unable to pay back the loan amount, prior to the end of the calendar year, the IRS will expect penalty fees. Your 401K company is obligated by law to turn this information over. If you close out your account, expect to have up to 40% withheld.
Meant to add
It seems as though almost all treatments for cancer have side effects which include a possibility of cancer later in life.
Oh, meant to say
I was going for guardenship of my father - set to be filed in court on Monday and he was killed going to see this woman over the weekend. I had no qualms about having the courts to step in, wanted them to because he did not want to listen to me, his only living child and next of kin.
I don't think she meant this towards the OP, but to --sm
the poster above her.
OMG! Meant SIL!!! LOL!!!

Meant to say IS IT POSSIBLE? NM

Meant to put JW, not JV

Meant to ask you below
Could you tell me what an M-team and an S-team are? Also, do you know what an LEA is? It may be that we are in different states and the terms are interchangeable with something I have heard of (I think I read something about an SST team, may not be the correct letters though).
Glad you were able to get things to go your way! We have always been pleased in the past and our son has always progressed very well in their programs, receiving A's and B's on his report cards and major behavior improvements, but they missed the mark on this one, and when my husband signed acceptance of their plan after their refusal to try what we thought would be best for him, he told them what would happen and his prediction has come true.
Perhaps this was meant for OP?
Not sure why you would intend it for moderator--didn't see anything in mods post that you had to stop.
Sorry, I meant --looking at it the right way--- no msg
LOL -Yep, what is what I MEANT to say - sm
Running on no sleep and just not making sense. I stand corrected!
it's exactly what she meant, you know.

Well.....I meant....sm
the time before the first ice age. Kinda of hard to believe that we are heading to an ice age when temperatures around this part of the country can top 100+ degrees in the summer and stay up as high as 70 in the winters. Weird weather.....
Anyhoo.....I also like to melt about a half block of the big block of Velveeta and add a can of chili to it and heat through until bubbly. Really good with Fritos, too!
I meant...
I know someone with a dog that gets loose often, and sometimes it is beyond your control.
Well it is according to how he meant...sm
how he meant it. If he wasn't playing around and was serious then I would be mad. I mean you never want to call your child names.
yes, that's what I meant - Thanks!

What I meant was...sm
There's no debate because I am not arguing against ESC research.
All she meant
was please don't put it in the subject line...I didn't watch either show until this afternoon, so when I scrolled down and saw "Talking about AI" (or whatever the OP said) I just skipped it and came back tonight and read it after I had watched. That's all.
I meant to say
When I looked back at my post, I meant to say my mom is the only person we will leave a sick child with if we absolutely have to go somewhere, not that if we absolutely have to leave them with her. My mom is a retired nurse, as well as having great mom common sense after raising 4 kids with all the mumps, measles, chicken pox, colds, flu, etc that goes along with it. She's also close enough to pick them up from school if need be. It's just worked out really good for all of us. Like I said, I think she and the kids would have missed out on a lot if she had lived far away.
Thank you! That's what I meant. nm

Fibromyalgia, meant to say
in the above post. Thanks again.
I said I competed when I meant to say He...sorry!
No way in this world could I stand in front of a crowd and make an impromptu speech. Give me something to read or act out and I am there but just flying by the seat of my pants, never.
You know what the poster meant
by spelling it wrong and who really cares. There is always someone out there to nit pick. GEEZ
sorry, meant 2 southerners
