MY Health and Wellness

This post brought to you by Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.

 

 

With the economy we are experiencing now, majority of the consumers would always look for best deals. In fact, I am one of those who are trying to get the most for my money I am spending on food, clothing, appliances, and most especially when it comes to medications. Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness Products give me greater satisfaction when it comes to over-the-counter medications. 

 

One of my favorite products is the Walgreens Daily Fiber and Probiotic Dietary Supplement. I have been using this product for a year now. When I compare it to the probiotic brand I was getting online before, the Walgreens Daily Fiber and Probiotic Dietary Supplement is a lot cheaper but there is no difference in the quality. It works the same way as in any probiotic branded names. Not only this product restores my digestive regularity but it also restores my wallet. I do get 100% satisfaction guaranteed at Walgreens exceptional value products. In addition, I do not have to worry because Walgreens are pharmacist recommended. At Walgreens, the money I spend is worth much more than a few bucks. 

 

Not only that I save money every time I make a purchase at Walgreens. I also help in raising the 3 million that Walgreens need to raise annually to support Walgreens Way to Well Fund™. The fund will aid for free preventive health tests, health and wellness services, and education to local communities. 

 

One more thing, some fellow bloggers host the giveaways of Walgreens Gift Cards. For more information visit http://socialspark.com/WalgreensBrandSweeps. 

 

If life has taught me anything it is to see is to believe. Every time I see my medicine cabinet I realized that Walgreens Brand Health and Wellness Products are what I believe in.

First Day of Summer

Summer Solstice marks the start of summer and the longest day of the year. This falls on June 20 or June 21 of the year. Solstice comes from the Latin word solstitium, meaning "sol" (the sun) and "stit" (standing), according to the National Weather Service. The sun's position at noon actually changes very little in the days surrounding the solstice, hence the concept of the sun "standing still."

4 Long-Term Effects of Teenage Pregnancy

Teenage pregnancy can cause many consequences that can last for a very long time. It can cause mental health issues, it can cause the teenage parents to experience financial difficulties, the child of the teenager could suffer from behavioral problems, and the child may be underdeveloped or suffer from health issues.

Many countries around the world are experiencing the problem of teenage pregnancy. Having a child at an early age inevitably leads to unfavorable and long-term problems which both the parents and their baby have to go through. You should know what the effects are.

It can result in problems related to mental health

Because they are not yet stable enough to go through the responsibility demanded of parenthood, teenage mothers usually suffer extreme pressures, and physical and emotional stress. This puts the young mother at high risk of experiencing mental problems. One of the outcomes of mental health problems that are not handled well is that the mentally-ill person may resort to drug abuse or make poor decisions. Mental health problems can also be a result of social isolation since teenage mothers usually end up with the responsibility of raising their child alone. Feelings of remorse, depression and suicidal tendencies may also be a common experience of teenage mothers who feel a lack of support.

It can lead to long-term financial problems

Teenage parents will most likely suffer many financial problems for a very long time. This is particularly true since teenagers are not yet financially independent to face the monetary obligations of starting their own family or having a child. Aside from taking care of the baby, teenage mothers might have to deal with other responsibilities such as finishing school or trying to keep a job, adding to the strain of the situation. Although a few teenagers have parents who are willing to support them financially, many are less fortunate in that their parents just don’t have enough time or money to help out.

The teenager’s child might have behavioral problems

According to a research from the University of Illinois, children born from teenage pregnancies are prone to developing behavioral problems. Many teenage mothers are immature and lack parenting skills necessary for imposing discipline in their children. Due to lack of proper parental influence, the child has a high chance of becoming maladjusted. An abusive home environment may also result in behavioral issues. Teenage parents usually don’t have the maturity to deal with the pressures they feel and they could end up being abusive in the home. Violence in the home can increase the risk of children having rebellious behavior.

The child may be underdeveloped or suffer from health issues

Many girls who get pregnant at a young age are not able to get adequate care. Failure to receive adequate nutrition or prenatal care may have an adverse effect on the development of the baby’s brain and overall health. Newborns of teenage mothers are more prone to some physical disabilities and respiratory problems.

Pregnancy at a young age can come with many negative effects but the young parents should not feel hopeless. With proper guidance and support, teenage parents may still be able to manage their situation.

Music Monday: Introducing Me

Today's Music Monday feature is no other than my one and only son PK. Enjoy listening folks;)

I'm, I'm good at wasting time
I think lyrics need to rhyme
And you're not asking
But I'm trying to grow a mustache

I eat cheese, but only on pizza, please
And sometimes on a homemade quesadilla
Otherwise it smells like feet to me
And I, I really like it when the moon looks like a toenail
And I love you when you say my name

If you wanna know
Here it goes
Gonna tell you this
The part of me that'll show if you're close
Gonna let you see everything
But remember that you asked for it
I'll try to do my best to impress
But it's easier to let you take a guess at the rest
But you wanna hear what lives in my brain
My heart, will you ask for it, for your perusing?
At times confusing, slightly amusing
Introducing me

Doo doo, doo doo doo doo to
Doo doo, doo doo doo doo to
La la la la
La la la la la la la la, da

I never trust a dog to watch my food
And I like to use to the word "dude"
As a noun, or an adverb, or an adjective
And I've never really been into cars
I like really cool guitars and superheroes
And checks with lots of zeros on 'em
I love the sound of violins
And making someone smile

If you wanna know
Here it goes
Gonna tell you this
