This decreases the quality and shelf-life of the product, and could mean you’re not getting all the nutrition you paid for. In addition, opening and closing vitamin and supplement bottles in a humid area traps a little bit of moisture into the bottle each time. Some vitamins might be especially prone to degrade in humid conditions, such as the water soluble vitamin B, vitamin C, thiamine, and vitamin B6. The kitchen sink is another area that will produce a lot of moisture....

Ask your stylist for product recommendations. Make sure not to shampoo 24 hours after getting a perm. Avoid shampoos with sulfates in them.

Ulcers Diarrhea Liver, kidney, or heart disease High blood pressure Diabetes Depression When prednisone is prescribed for short-term use to treat a temporary condition, it’s usually taken for 5–10 days, with a different dosage each day. If you’re taking prednisone long-term to treat a chronic condition, your doctor will likely start you at a higher dose to get your condition under control. Then, they’ll gradually reduce the dose each day to completely wean you off of it or down to a lower dose for maintenance....

Do not like everything they post. Choose one or two things that you genuinely like and space out the time between your likes to every few days. If you send too much attention to them all at once, it may come off like you are trying too hard. Do not like only the cute pictures of them. You can like one photo where you feel like they look particularly good, but if you like too many pictures of them looking pretty, you may come off creepy....

Always know what you are talking about. If, for example, it’s a movie, then you should know the rating of the movie (G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17). If you’re underage and you’re seeing a more mature movie, don’t mention the movie unless your mom asks. Just mention the type of movie, like comedy or thriller. Working hard in school demonstrates that you’re responsible and mature. The more you can do to meet your academic obligations, the more likely your mom will be to give you what you want....

Children will begin their drawing by scribbling. Around 2 years of age, the scribbles will become more controlled and repetitive, and children may begin to grip crayons and markers between their thumb and pointer finger for more control. Offer a variety of art materials at this age. Don’t focus only on drawing with tools: children can draw by tracing pictures in the sand, or shaping clay and sticking it on the page....

It’s a good idea to give blue cheese a smell when you’ve just brought it home. That way, you’ll know what it smells like when it’s fresh and be better able to detect when the scent begins to change. Just as with the scent of the cheese, make sure to note the color of your blue cheese when it’s fresh so it’s easier to spot changes if it goes bad. In addition to color changes, study the cheese to see if its surface appears slimy or fuzzy, and discard if you notice changes in texture....

Make a list of points you want to make, things you want to say, or ideas you want to address when you talk to your friends. Figure out if you believe the person you want to tell is supportive. How has this person reacted when you’ve shared things with him or her before? You also should think about whether you want help from the person or if you simply just want them to know....

Example of a realistic goal - “I want to be noticeably more tone in two months. " Example of an unrealistic goal - “I want to be incredibly tone overnight. " Do not be deterred by the number on the scale. You are trying to better yourself, not bring yourself down. Skewed numbers that are rounded or falsified are only detrimental to your progress. Everybody’s body reacts differently. You must take time to see what a rough baseline of your calorie intake should look like....

For example, you can turn the tables and learn how to crochet, just to make her a scarf for once. You should try to do things that make her happy based on things that she cares about and that matter to her. If she’s a huge rock climbing fan, for example, make a special custom pouch for her chalk. Be polite. Some women expect you to hold open doors for them and pull out their chair....

Keep in mind flushing your nose with saline solution will only offer temporary relief for dryness, nosebleeds, and nasal congestion. To really address the issue, you will likely have to see your doctor. Try to avoid nasal sprays with the preservative benzalkonium chloride (BKC), which can be damaging to protective cells in the nose. Overuse of decongestant and steroid nasal sprays can cause nasal tears, so you should avoid these. If you are already using a lot of nasal spray and your nasal issues are not getting better, you should see your doctor for a diagnosis....

When you’re done, dry your hands with a clean towel or paper towel. If you’re having a bad reaction to the nipple jewelry you’ve chosen, then your doctor may recommend changing the piercing. This way, your piercing will stay open so it can drain. If your doctor recommends this, go back to your piercer to get the nipple ring changed. You can buy a saline rinse over-the-counter, or you can make one by adding 1 teaspoon (5 g) of salt to 1 cup (240 mL) of purified water....

Use a ¼ teaspoon of tincture directly into the mouth per 30 pounds every few hours. If you brew your own tea, use 1T every few hours. If you brew your own, make it strong: 4 tea bags (or 2T bulk flowers) to each cup of boiling water. Chamomile is non-toxic so you can give this to your pup fairly liberally without fear of side effects. [1] X Research source...

Most cases of jumper’s knee will need several weeks or even months of treatment. For instance, you might need to take a break from sports that you play. Don’t push your body right now. If something hurts, stop doing that activity. Talk with your doctor about how long you should take ibuprofen to manage the pain. If you have chronic jumper’s knee, plan on applying an ice pack after exercising....

To start Command Prompt as administrator, right click it, and select “Run as administrator”. You will need to do this to end any programs that are also running as administrator. You will probably have to scroll down to review all of the processes, since they won’t fit all on one page. For this example, the whole command would look like taskkill /IM notepad. exe. Remember to add the space before typing /F....

The great thing about checked shirts is that you can find them with long or short sleeves and for whatever season you’re in. For the colder months, look for a flannel top that is darker and deeper, like reds, blacks, grays, and dark greens. If you need a size you can’t find in the store, look online or consider having an ill-fitting shirt tailored. Keep in mind that it’s easier to tailor a shirt that’s too big rather than one that’s too small....

If you can, do this indoors. Wiring a sub, amp, and head unit can take quite a bit of time and you’ll have to have quick access to a lot of tools. Doing this indoors will make it easier to stay cool and keep track of things. Look for a positive (+) and negative (-) sign on the battery to distinguish between the positive and negative terminals. The positive terminal usually has a red cover as well....

Many gift shops and convenience stores sell special bottle sleeves to better protect bottle given as a gift. Fan out the ends of the wrapping paper to give the wrapped bottle a stronger resemblance to a wrapped piece of hard candy. When wrapped like this, it will be impossible to stand the bottle upright. Be careful when setting the bottle down. A simple bow tied with a brightly colored ribbon can add a personal touch to box wrapped bottles....

You can use an elastic non-adhesive sports wrap instead, if desired. You’ll just have to tape the wrap in place when you’re done. This wrap works best on bare skin, so remove or “hike up” as much clothing as modesty permits. Or, tape over compression shorts (and shirt) if necessary. You want the tape to cause some compression of the muscles, but don’t pull it excessively tight. If the leg below the tape loses its normal color or tingles, the tape is too tight and must be removed and replaced more loosely....
