// 845.371.2222 TOPIC #132 - BAG BALAGAN I have a drawer with my silver foil, saran wrap, and parchment paper, and my bread bags, sandwich bags, and Ziploc bags are in there. They remain very neat, in the drawer in my kitchen. For my shopping bags, I got a Lucite drawer from Made to Order. You can get more than one; it’s stackable. I have one nice big drawer, and I keep it in my coat closet on a shelf I can reach. Each time I have a shopping bag, after I check that it’s empty and clean, I hold it from the bottom to make sure it’s flat, fold it twice in the length, and then roll it over my hand, so I get a small folded piece. Then, I tuck it inside the drawer and the bag stays folded in place. It sounds very complicated, but as a busy mother with a few little children, I still get to do it, and all my shopping bags are very neat in that drawer. TOPIC #121 – PINWORMS First of all, thank you for providing this forum for people to share and learn ideas. Someone asked about a solution for pinworms. I had children who were constantly having pinworms. The medication the doctor prescribed did not help, and it was very unpleasant to take. However, a product called Paragard from Ratio Health Food Store worked wonders. I gave it to my children in grape juice or orange juice because it has a very strong taste. I skipped the dosage here and there; I didn’t even give it so religiously, but basically, this is what got rid of my children’s pinworms. You can contact Ratio Health at 845-352-0725. TOPIC #126 - WHITE HAIR So first of all, Zahler’s has a vitamin that’s called Shine, and they can help with consulting, to see whether this is what you need. A deficiency of B12, B3, copper, or D can cause the white hair. I called Healthwise, their number is 845-782-2001, and they told me which vitamins are good for the white hair issue. Csay Topic #134 TOPIC #131 – GRINDING TEETH I have that when I sleep, I don’t realize, and I grind my teeth. I didn’t know until the dentist told me, because it only happens when I actually sleep. He told me I’m way too young and they’re very grinded. What worked best for me was making a medicated white plastic thing for the teeth while sleeping. The dentist made it for me, and it’s called a night guard. GENERAL DIGESTION TIP A nutritionist wrote to take 3 cinnamon bark capsules twice daily. She did not mention how many milligrams each capsule should have in order to see results. Is there any way I can find out since I would really want to try it. Thank you for such an informative column. TOPIC #128 - STUTTERING Hi, I wanted to add to the discussion on stuttering, and I want to publicly thank Hashem, because my son started stuttering at three years old, and it’s better now. It was very severe, so I did some research and learned that ignoring it is the best approach: Just let him talk until he gets his words out and don’t interrupt. Baruch Hashem, he is now four years old, and he is improving. You need to ignore it and not bring it up, so the brain doesn’t start to associate it with an issue. ALLERGIES A while ago, somebody wrote in about drinking tea with apple cider vinegar to ward off allergies ahead of time for the spring season. She recommended drinking the tea a few months before the allergy season, but I can’t find the exact information. If she or someone else who knows can send in the information of how much to take, how many times a day, and how much ahead of time before the Spring season. I would really appreciate that and I’m sure many other people can benefit as well. TOPIC #126 - WHITE HAIR This is a vitamin B12 deficiency. They sell very cheap little tablets that you chew or dissolve under your tongue. Once your hair turns gray, it’s not reversible. You could also buy B complex tablets to swallow. Everyone should just take one every day. Both children and adults can become very deficient. TOPIC #133 - UNDERWEIGHT CHILDREN I have had a very good experience with Bessel milk. Bessel milk is a very healthy type of milk and it has a lot of fat, so the child could drink a cup of Bessel milk and gain a lot of weight easily. 151
