Nush Cakes #Giveaway

If you've found yourself counting calories, you know how hard it is. And guess what? It doesn't really work. Because, like you've probably experienced for yourself, there's nothing like sugar to make you want more sugar! So if you want to cut down on something, cut down on sugar and carbs. The difference with protein, fat, and fiber is that they tend to satisfy your appetite, not rev it up. Nush can help you with all of that!

Good news! Low-carb no longer means low-flavor, because all-natural Nush cakes are truly bursting with it. The Pineapple Mango is tart and fruity. The Banana Nut will bring you right back to the good ol’ days of banana bread. And the Blueberry? Well - you won’t ever feel the need to have another sugary blueberry muffin! On top of that, they have Peanut Butter (think cake-y cookie), Carrot Spice (so much like carrot cake!) and Cherry Almond (with chunks of cherry!). All of them are made with simple, good ingredients - with zero added sugar - and they’re also gluten-free.

Drink A Banana With Banana Wave #BackToSchool2019

For athletes and weekend warriors needing an energy boost and a way to replace electrolytes sweated out in the gym or outdoors on the playing field, the go-to solution has been to chug down a colorful, sugary sports drink. But a natural foods industry veteran says there is a much healthier (and cheaper) way to replenish those lost carbs and electrolytes: Drink A Banana. A team of clinical researchers at Appalachian State University found that bananas were as effective as the leading sports drink in providing nutritional support to endurance cyclists during intensive and prolonged exercise says, Steven Gelerman, CEO of Banana Wave, makers of Banana Wave Banana Milk. Their study showed that bananas also provided the cyclists with antioxidants not found in sports drinks as well as a greater nutritional boost which included fiber, potassium, and Vitamin B6. In addition, bananas provided a healthier blend of sugars than sports drinks. With such an impressive nutritional profile, it's easy to see how bananas helped the athletes in the study, and why the yellow fruit earned its reputation as the Worlds First Super Food nearly 100 years ago, says Gelerman.

Gelerman, whose Boca Raton-based company formulated and now markets the first non-dairy milk made from bananas as an alternative to dairy, nut, and rice milk, says he is a life-long banana enthusiast. "I learn something new about bananas virtually every day", Gelerman says. For instance, bananas are a great source of prebiotics and help keep our intestinal flora healthy. They're also a great snack for dieters; Under-ripe bananas are loaded with resistant starch - which the human body digests very slowly, making it a powerful natural appetite suppressant that keeps us feeling full hours after eating it. For those struggling to lose weight, Gelerman suggests eating a slightly green banana 30-minutes before meals; you'll find yourself eating far less at the dinner table. Another banana fact that may surprise some is that bananas are rich in pectin, a fiber that absorbs heavy metals and toxins from the body, says Gelerman. Pectin can actually help smooth your skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Pectin content is why bananas have a reputation as one of the top ten anti-aging foods, he says. It's really a perfect fuel for athletes and all active adults. Gelerman says instead of bringing raw bananas to the gym to snack on during workout sessions, he recently began bringing 8-ounce containers of Banana Wave Banana Milk. "Made from non-GMO bananas, its a drink I can periodically sip, not only to maintain a high level of energy but to keep me hydrated throughout the workout. With Banana Milk, I can get all the nutritional benefits of bananas, but without having to worry about slipping on one of the peels."

How To Supercharge & Turbocharge GM LS-Series Engines

How To Supercharge & Turbocharge GM LS-Series Engines by Barry Kluczyk

About The Book:

GM LS-series engines are some of the most powerful, versatile, and popular V-8 engines ever produced. They deliver exceptional torque and abundant horsepower, are in ample supply, and have a massive range of aftermarket parts available. Some of the LS engines produce about 1 horsepower per cubic inch in stock for - that’s serious performance. One of the most common ways to produce even more horsepower is through forced air induction - supercharging or turbocharging. Right-sized superchargers and turbochargers and relatively easy tuning have grown to make supercharging or turbocharging an LS-powered vehicle a comparatively simple, yet highly effective method of generating a dramatic increase in power. In the revised edition of How To Supercharge & Turbocharge GM LS-Series Engines, supercharger and turbocharger design and operation are covered in detail, so the reader has a solid understanding of each system and can select the best system for his or her budget, engine, and application. The attributes of Roots-type and centrifugal-type superchargers as well as turbochargers are extensively discussed to establish a solid base of knowledge. Benefits and drawbacks of each system as well as the impact of systems on the vehicle are explained. Also covered in detail are the installation challenges, necessary tools, and the time required to do the job. Once the system has been installed, the book covers tuning, maintenance, and how to avoid detonation so the engine stays healthy. Cathedral, square, and D-shaped port design heads are explained in terms of performance, as well as strength and reliability of the rotating assembly, block, and other components. Finally, Kluczyk explains how to adjust the electronic management system to accommodate a supercharger or turbocharger. How To Supercharge and Turbocharge GM LS-Series Engines is the only book on the market specifically dedicated to forced air induction for LS-series engines. It provides exceptional guidance on the wide range of systems and kits available for arguably the most popular modern V-8 on the market today. The need for speed will always push drivers of cars, motorcycles, and even boats to be supercharged. Finding Azimut Yachts for sale with turbo-charged engines would offer incredible performance.

GrandBox Subscription Box

It was April Kelly's calling to help seniors that attracted her to GrandBox, and in May of this year, she became its proud new owner. GrandBox is a subscription box company that brings joy to seniors across the United States by surprising them with a package of assorted goodies. It is an excellent way for children and grandchildren to show their love for their parents and grandparents by sending them goodies monthly or on special occasions. The box contains five full-size items that seniors will love, including snacks, and is customized with family photos and a personalized note. As an avid entrepreneur, April became interested in owning a company like GrandBox when she started a volunteer group at her church to support residents at a nursing home in Nebraska. The group paired volunteers with the residents of the nursing home to spend time with them and participate in activities. April also moderated Bingo for the residents and treated them to candy and baked goods as winning rewards. She saw how happy the seniors were about the experience and thought, "wow, wouldn't they love to receive other goodies on a regular basis from loved ones?" April discovered GrandBox as part of her research to start a subscription box business for seniors. She approached the owners of the company about a potential purchase.

“GrandBox had established a strong product and brand. I saw tremendous potential for growth. The timing was perfect for all parties and now I am the proud owner of GrandBox,” she explained. As the new owner, April is excited about growing and diversifying the products that seniors receive in their boxes. She also plans to increase her presence on social media as she wants more people to discover the joy GrandBox can bring to the seniors in their lives. A happy customer had this to say, "My mom loves her GrandBox and was on the verge of tears, it meant so much to her. GrandBox impacts people's lives, no matter how far apart you are."

David: Savakerrva, Volume 1 by Lawrence Brown

About The Book:

They came from the void, the path between stars, and they brought their Machines. They came for a secret as old as life, and to get it, they would burn every world in their path. They invaded a planet far off, a world of legends and wars and Great Ice Clans. But against the Machines, the Clans had no chance. Barely escaping, the King of the Clans found Earth. Then - like other men in strange, new worlds, he also found a woman. And the Son of the King was born. The son would save the far world, or so an old Promise foretold. But the boy grew up alone, and ignorant of his past, his only world was East Detroit. Then one night behind an old iron door, the boy heard the truth...and rejected every word. He believed in little, maybe nothing at all, and certainly not in a world far off or a Promise foretold. And then they came to Detroit. A new Science Fiction series of epic adventure and apocalyptic threats, David: Savakerrva tells the story of a boy from Detroit...who may not be just a boy from Detroit.

How To Stop Your Eczema In Its Tracks

Eczema can affect people of every age, causing itchy patches of dry, cracking skin. Battling with eczema can often feel daunting, but it is possible to experience relief from this relatively common skin condition. While there are cases that may require prescription treatment, it is possible for most people to get it under control by making a few simple changes in their life. If you or your child suffers from eczema, here are three ways to help keep it at bay.

Change Your Skin Care Routine

People with eczema are incredibly sensitive to additives and fragrances, so it's best to switch to all hypoallergenic skin care products. Bathe regularly, but keep it quick and avoid hot showers and baths, as they can make the condition worse. Be sure to moisturize generously every day, especially immediately after a shower or bath.

Switch Laundry Detergents

One of the worst culprits in causing eczema flareups is laundry detergent. Switch to a brand that's completely free of fragrances and dyes and stop using fabric softener altogether. For help with stains, choose a product that's intended to be safe for sensitive skin, or create your own stain remover with baking soda, fragrance free dish soap and peroxide.

Treat Flareups Quickly and Thoroughly

When an eczema flareup occurs, the patches of dry skin can crack and bleed, causing extreme irritation and discomfort. Keep the skin clean and apply a hydrocortisone cream to the affected area frequently until it has completely healed. If it takes more than a week to heal with regular treatment and attention, a stronger prescription version may be needed. Take note of what was done or handled before a flareup to help avoid it again in the future.

While eczema is relatively common and usually completely harmless, it is still a good idea to see your doctor first to obtain a proper diagnosis. But by changing a few habits, you may find that this condition is very easy to live with.

A Dog's Journer Now On Digital, Coming To BluRay 8/20

How Home Warranties Can Save You Thousands of Dollars - And Different Options To Look At

People hear a lot over their lifetimes about how they can save money. Some of these tips work, while some can, in fact, leave you out of pocket, with homeowners spending on average nearly $5,000 in repairs in the last year. When it comes to your home, it’s best not to take any shortcuts. Instead, consider long-term investments like a home warranty. Not only can a great home warranty keep your home happy and stress-free, but it can save you thousands of dollars in the long run. To find out how you can do this, here’s exactly how a home warranty saves people money, as well as the different kinds of options to suit you.

How home warranties can save you money:

Work with a budget

When countless repairs and replacements in your home add up, it’s almost impossible to stick to a budget. This means costs can quickly spiral out of control, often leaving you with more to stress about. With home warranties, your costs are covered with a simple monthly or yearly set rate, making budgeting more than easy.

The best part is that home warranties can be personalized to suit the kind of cover you want. This means you can work with as large or as small a commitment as you need. Bear in mind that the cheaper your home warranty is, the less it is likely to cover. Though you might be wary of upfront costs, you’ll quickly see how your set rate can pay you back in just a few, simple call outs.

No more repair costs

Homes are often more stressful after a sale has gone through. For many families, even minor cosmetic damage or scrapes can cost a lot when there’s a lot of them. With home warranties, repair costs are automatically factored into your set rate.

Though the warranty won’t cover intentional damage to appliances or your home, average wear and tear or faulty items will be covered. It will also save you the hassle of having to fix some of the damage yourself, avoiding mistakes and devaluations to your home value.

Replacements might be covered

It’s true that not all home warranties cover replacements, but there is a huge spectrum of warranties that include full replacement costs within their rate. Before you jump into what seems like a good rate, make sure you read the small print to see whether that includes replacements.

If so, this is a sure-fire way of saving lots of money. For example, most home warranties cost between $300-600 a year, not including the service fee. With the cost of replacing a hot water heater being around $550, your warranty pays for itself within one instance.

Your options

There isn’t a one size fits all when it comes to home warranties. You can protect your home with a warranty and cut costs, but only if it’s the right kind. With various options out there, it’s best to get the lowdown on what they are:

Systems and Appliance home warranties

When people talk about home warranties, this is typically the type of home warranty they are referring to. As one of the most commonly purchased, it covers homeowners for repairs, breakdowns, or faults after the sale period of a home has ended. Typically, it is new homeowners that benefit from this warranty the most. It is also known as a Home Service Agreement.

There are some variations on it which cover current homeowners looking to save money. It is not to be confused with an Appliance Warranty, which covers an individual appliance for repairs or replacement upon purchase.

Homeowners Insurance

Homeowners often have a hard time defining between a home warranty and homeowner’s insurance. Though similar, they will cover you for different costs- even within the same incident.

One of the most commonly used examples is if your washing machine breaks down. Your home warranty will cover the repair or replacement of the machine, whereas homeowner’s insurance covers you for any water or electrical damage that occurs during the breakdown.

Remember that homeowner’s insurance regularly requires you to pay excess if the cost of repairing the damage exceeds that which the insurance covers you for.

Structural Home Warranty

A structural home warranty is always needed when someone is in the process of building their home. This may be obtained by the builder, or the homeowner. In any case, it covers a homeowner for any defects or damages from workmanship for the first few years after the building has been completed.

In the small chance your new home experiences major structural problems, many structural home warranties cover you for the first ten years after the build is completed.

Remodeler’s Home Warranty

If you’re considering remodeling your home, there’s a home warranty that also covers you here. Though similar to the Structural Home Warranty, it only covers the building of a new part of your existing home.

This cover is usually only for structural change, covering any damage that happens to the new part of your home, or damage that this new remodel does to your current structure. For any new appliances in this part of your home, homeowners are often recommended to update their Systems and Appliances home warranties.

Conquer The Laundry Mountain This Summer & #BackToSchool2019

Get those Summer stains out! And get help this upcoming School Year!

Dryel uses a patented process to clean your dry clean only and special care clothes. The heat of your dryer activates the cleaning solution in the Dryer Activated cleaning cloth to release a steam that removes body soils and odors from the clothes. The Fabric Protection Bag maintains the optimal balance of cleaning agents and heat, allowing the steam to work thoroughly through the clothes, and then slowly vents the vapors out of the bag and dryer. Dryel Booster Spray includes extra cleaning agents to remove stains, and add freshness to heavily soiled areas prior to putting the garments through the in-dryer system.

The original form of Biz! Add Biz Powder to every load to boost the cleaning power of your detergent and eliminate tough stains.
