Everest NutritionI'm guilty of having a horrible diet at times.  As much as I wish things were different, I just completely dislike vegetables and don't eat fruits or fish as often as I should either.  Because of this, I've been taking a wide variety of nutritional supplements for well over a decade.  This way, I can try to make up for what my diet is lacking in order to give my body all of the essential vitamins and nutrients it needs.

I've long been a believer in fish oil supplements for they are a great added support for your cardiovascular system and brain functions.  I made sure to take plenty of fish oil when I was pregnant and while breastfeeding Riley, and to this day, Riley drinks organic milk loaded with DHA.

So I have to admit that I was fairly surprised to learn of a supplement much more powerful than fish oil...krill oil!  Everest Nutrition Krill Oil, found in the deep, pure waters of the Antarctic, is a new generation of Omega-3s that beats the pants off of fish oil.  According to independent laboratories, their Krill Oil was found to be 54x more powerful in antioxidant activity than fish oil.  Keep reading to learn more!

I reviewed two bottles of Everest Nutrition Krill Oil, 1250 mg - 60 Caplique Capsules, which retail for $29.95 each, but are currently on sale for $25.00 with FREE SHIPPING.

Dr. Ian Smith#1 New York Times bestselling author Dr. Ian Smith's SHRED diet has taken the internet by storm, with a "Shredder Nation" following on Twitter and Facebook that continues to grow.  A member of the President's Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition, Dr. Ian created SHRED while working with people who had success following his previous diet books but had hit stubborn plateaus.

Realizing that there were many more struggling with pockets of stubborn fat, Dr. Ian took to social media, tweeting daily diet tips from SHRED to followers, and soon thousands of enthusiastic "shredders" sprouted up across the country and as far away as the United Kingdom.  The average weight loss in just 6 weeks has been 20 pounds!  SHREDDERS love that the food is inexpensive, regular and tasty and can be found in any grocery store.

I reviewed the SHRED: The Revolutionary Diet Book by Dr. Ian Smith which retails for $24.99, but is currently on sale for $15.83 with FREE SHIPPING.

The Day After ChristmasFor weeks the holiday season builds to a fever pitch, culminating in a massive day of giving, feasting and, hopefully, relaxing. After Christmas has come and gone, many of us feel a need to fill the void that was once occupied by festive music and twinkling lights.

With the National Retail Federation projecting average holiday spending at $749.51 per person, many of us will need to be cost-conscious about our post-holiday plans. If you're already feeling the strain, you can learn a thing or two from fellow frugal consumers who know how to maximize the post-Christmas time.

Here are several things I recommend doing right after Christmas.

Holiday Gift ReturnNow that Christmas has come and gone, it's important to know your options for gifts that didn't exactly hit the mark.

According to a recent survey by the National Retail Federation, 83.1 percent of retailers indicated their return policies wouldn't change much during the holiday season. In fact, over 10 percent of stores said they'd make it easier for shoppers and ill-received gift recipients to return unwanted merchandise.

Whether it's a return or exchange you have to handle, these six tips will help make the process less of a hassle.

One Step AheadOne of the best parts of the holidays is seeing family and friends, though one of the worst parts, in my opinion, is actually traveling far and wide for the visits.  Since almost all of our loved ones live in Texas, we typically get in the car and drive for hours on end.

Now while adults find this type of travel rather boring, children tend to find it excruciatingly dull.  And when a child is bored, believe me, the entire trip suffers.  Thankfully, One Step Ahead has two affordable travel essentials that will keep your kiddos happy and entertained throughout those long car rides.

I reviewed the following two items from One Step Ahead:

Backseat Entertainment Car Organizer, which retails for $19.95

Deluxe Snack & Play Kids Travel Tray, which retails for $19.95
