Yogurt Making at Home - two products that I use regularly that can help you make your own homemade Greek Yogurt. The Deni Yogurt Maker makes six 5-oz jars of yogurt from heated milk in 12 hours and the Euro Cuisine Greek Yogurt Maker turns that 30 oz. of homemade yogurt into Greek yogurt by straining water from it for 3 to 18 hours in the refrigerator (the longer, the better).

23andMe DNA Ancestry + Health - This is a DNA test that just needs a sample of your saliva to give you over 90 reports on your ancestry links and the health markers that you have. Health markers include the genetic tendencies for Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and BRCA, to name a few. These markers do not mean that you will get the specific disease--just that your DNA shows that you have a tendency to get it, provided the  lifestyle choices you make are helping to bring out the disease. For example, there are two markers for Alzheimer's disease and if someone has both markers, they have a 70% chance of developing the disease. That means that 30% of the people with both markers do not get the disease, probably due to their better lifestyle choices. Click link below to read more and buy on Amazon:

Teflon Dangers - if your pet bird was sitting on your shoulder while you stood over your stove and heated your Teflon pan on High for about three minutes, your bird would drop dead from the gases (isn't that why they send a canary into a coal mine before sending humans?). At 680°F, Teflon pans release at least six toxic gases, including two carcinogens (cancer-causing substances), two global pollutants, and MFA, a chemical lethal to humans at low doses. Read a very comprehensive report at:

Computer Trackball - For many of us who spend a lot of time on the computer, it's common to get pain or tightness in the palm, wrist, or toward the elbow. I realized a few years ago that this is from overuse of the "gripping" muscles and tendons we use to move the mouse around. After I bought a trackball to use instead of the mouse, my tightness went away because I just rest my hand on the trackball and move the ball around with one finger, while clicking the buttons with the thumb and other fingers. You just unplug your mouse and plug the trackball into a USB port (one of the small rectangular ports). Most trackballs come with software that lets you program the extra buttons for common functions you use. I've found the Logitech Marble Mouse (pictured below) to be affordable and a good quality trackball, so I have actually bought two--one for my desktop computer and one for my laptop. Click the link below to see the Logitech trackball that I use on Amazon:
