Back to School with Sambucol

It's that time of the year again when the kids start to get ready to go back to school. I can barely call them kids anymore because my two are teenagers but that doesn't make them immune to sickness. It never fails that when they go back to school they end up bringing back a cold to share with us lovingly at home. So here we have discovered the amazing line of natural products Sambucol has to offer to help combat and prevent sickness.

What do all these products have in common? They all use Elderberry. The berries and flowers of elderberry are packed with antioxidants and vitamins that may boost your immune system. They can help tame inflammation, lessen stress, and help protect your heart, too.

Some experts recommend elderberry to help prevent and ease cold and flu symptoms.

It’s also been used as a treatment for:

Constipation
Joint and muscle pain
Infections that affect how you breathe
Headaches
Fever
Kidney problems
Epilepsy
Minor skin conditions
Stress

It's truly an amazing berry!

I have been distributing out the Black Elderberry gummy samples to family members and friends. Everyone seems to like it and all the benefits it can provide. It's definitely better than swallowing pills. It's something quick and easy to remember. Both of my kids can easily take their gummies in the morning before school.

I'm not sure how the syrup tastes. Nobody has become sick but I will definitely update this later on because I know someone will end up bringing a bug home. We are totally prepared for that!

I did try out the throat lozenge because my throat felt scratchy. It's a taste I have never tasted before so it's hard to describe. It's not bad but it's not the best thing in the world. I tend to think of it as hard cough drops except without the overly harsh menthol taste which I hate. It does the job to soothe and it's not terrible for my body.

Like I said, no one has been sick lately but these are such a cool concept. I don't think I have ever seen a quick dissolve tablet like this for colds. I can't wait to give these a go since they are truly convenient.

Sambucol can easily be found in stores around you or you can even purchase the products online.
You can buy it on Amazon or Lucky Vitamin.

Ripley's Believe It or Not! Beyond the Bizarre + Special Anniversary Edition 100 years 2019 Preview

It's that time of the year again when Ripley's publishes a new book for the year. I always look forward to it because it has been a childhood staple of mine. When you're into the weird oddities of life there's nothing better than flipping through every single page of these books.

Ripley's is also celebrating it's 100th year out there so they have a newly published magazine which is fantastic. You can look through and see all the memorable curiosities they have talked about in past publications.

Obviously, I can't tell you every single thing that's in the book or else I would be giving away the content but I can give you a little sneak peak.

So we have a lovely spread of incredible pumpkin carvings ( People are now even carving melons and gourds) . I thought this would be nice to feature since Halloween is right around the corner. That Joker carving from Batman is probably my favorite one but the details that went into the White Walker from Game of Thrones is unbelievable.

**Sorry the photo loaded in upside down **

Next you can take a look at White Wild. They have a whole section dedicated to animals. Here you can see a bunch of rare albino animals found in the wild. I think the Albino Humpback whale is so interesting. This big guy was spotted out in Queensland , Australia.

I thought the Quaint Qur'an was neat! It's super tiny and must have taken so much patience to make. The owner is located all the way in Indonesia. He also printed it in Gold Ink. 

The next page shows Tea in Bloom. I actually have had experience with this because I know how popular clear glass teapots are now due to this. It's so lovely getting to see the flowers bloom in the hot water. I'm not crazy about the tastes I have tried out but I'm sure you can see for yourself. True tea lovers will enjoy this. 

The Dachshund Museum is located in Passau, Germany. If you're a fan of this breed of dog then you should definitely go take a visit abroad. There are tons of cool Dachshund related things for you to feast your sights on. 

I love Cosplay so I had to show the feature on Watery Cosplay. It shows and talks about photographers who capture amazing shots underwater. The Harley Quinn is adorable!! The female version of Thor looks gorgeous. Hmm , I wasn't impressed with the Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus shot from the Sailor Moon Series. What do you think?

So giving you that little sneak peak I hope I have piqued your interest to check out both the new book and magazine. It's good for people of all ages to enjoy. Make sure to check out your local book store to find it. I'm pretty sure Barnes and Noble will have it. It will be available for purchase August 27, 2019.
