I have just read an article that I thought I should share with the AngloINFO ladies. Apparently women should not drink bottled water that has been left in a car. The heat causes toxins which leak into the water and these toxins have been found in breast tissue. Use either a stainless stell canteen or a glass bottle. Tell your friends.

I have to have a blood test this morning for an under active thyroid. I had a couple of drinks last night, would this effect the test? I was wondering whether I should wait a day or two?

are a natural teeth whitener. This was an ancient Roman practice which is still used today. Crush a strawberry and mix with a little baking powder, brush onto the teeth and leave for five minutes before brushing again and rinsing.

I am finding that wearing flats constantly is playing havoc with my feet. Does anyone know a good chiropodist?

Just a word of warning, I have an under active thyroid and last week the doctor felt I should reduce the amount of thyroxine I was taking from 150 micrograms per day to 100 one day and 125 the next. I already had a supply of tablets for 50´s so he wrote a prescription for 100 tablets of 25 micrograms so I could easily alternate the dosage. Stay with this its worth it. I collected the prescription and on the first day I was to take 125, for some reason checked the packet, they were 100 micrograms each. I dont like to think how that would have made me feel over the next six weeks trial. So always, always check the prescription against what you are given.

Has anyone attempted to have their teeth whitened over here? I dont mind travelling to a reputable dentist, but I am not over confident in their general care of teeth over here so I´m a little cautions.
