For those who are worried about $250 range of expenses for a new pair of eye glasses, there is a decent alternative at Zenni Optical which provides complete single vision eyeglasses starting from as low as $8.  I have heard good reviews of them and will try them in the near future.

New Wave Enviro Shower Filter

Product Features

Product Description

Chlorine and your Shower “Volatile organics can evaporate from water in a shower or bath.”* * from: Is Your Water Safe to Drink? Consumer Reports Books “A long, hot shower can be dangerous. The toxic chemicals are inhaled in high concentrations.” -from: Bottom Line; Dr. John Andelman, PhD. “Water is chlorinated to kill microorganisms, but the Chlorine also kills the healthy probiotic bacteria in the intestines.” -from: Restoring Your Digestive Health; Jordan S. Rubin, N. MD., PhD. “Avoiding contact with chlorinated water is of the utmost importance. This includes bathing water and drinking water. Chlorine kills bacteria, friendly and unfriendly, in the intestines. it can be absorbed through the skin. I recomend installing a shower filter to remove Chlorine.” -from: Patient, Heal Thyself; Jordan S. Rubin, N. MD., PhD. What is the Effect of Chlorine in the Shower? Chlorine is a toxic gas which attackes living cells. It was used during World War I as a chemical warfare agent. It is used today as an additive to drinking water to kill harmful micro-organisms. While this can be an important health benefit, Chlorine itself is far from beneficial: it attacks organic material, such as the skin and skin oils, which dries out the skin and hair. Because Chlorine vaporizes along with the hot water, it is inhaled into the lungs. It is also absorbed into the skin. According to some experts, 5 times more Chlorine enters the body through the skin during a shower than enters through drinking 8 glasses of chlorinated tap water!

Not many people are aware that Stevia is a no calorie sweetener that does not raise the blood glucose levels. Native tribes of South America have been using it for centuries and Japanese have been using it for few decades. I have been using Stevia for couple of years now in sweetening my drinks.

After experimenting with different products, I found the following to be of better quality ones.

Stevia by Stevita Co

Spoonable Powder NO Calories NO Carbohydrates Extracted from the leaves of the Stevia plant with high concentrations of Steviosides and Rebaudiosides
