Now by “Clean your house with a fern” I don’t mean turn it over and dust with it, I’m talking about cleaning your air! According to SixWise.com your gonna need a lot of plants to start cleaning your air, but if you could clean 87% of air toxins in 24 hours wouldn’t you run out and buy some? Well, you better get the big cart because you are going to need to buy 15-18 good sized plants. Personally, I would much rather have a house full of plants than a house full of Lysol spray anyway!
“The Mother Fern, one of the best at purifying the air, is a very popular houseplant because it is easy to care for, thrives in indirect light and with little moisture, and is very attractive,” says Six Wise. Whole Living Magazine says to put one in your bathroom windows, the warm steam from the shower will act like a greenhouse and it will freshen up the room.
Don’t despair if the fern isn’t your cup of tea try one of these other air purifying options instead:
- Dragon tree
- Ivy
- Ficus
- Philodendrons
- Spider plants
- Peace lilies
- Ferns
- Chrysanthemums
- Palms
And next time you want to buy your sick friend a little pick me up, grab a plant instead of flowers, they’ll thank you later.

Sure, aging is a factor in memory loss, the same way you may not run as fast in your 40’s as you did in your 20’s. And, while you lose neurons as you age, your brain makes new ones. There is a big difference between normal slowing down and serious cognitive impairment. Read More »

For centuries, women from around the world have been wrapping their post-pregnancy bellies in order to quickly get back into shape. It’s believed that using a belly wrap helps reduce the size of a swollen uterus, reduces water retention around the belly area and helps to lose inches fast.
Belly wraps are for all the women out there who despair at the amount of loose and sagging skin that is left behind after childbirth, whereas in earlier times women would have wrapped a broad cloth band, we now have a variety of girdle like items to choose from.

Readers who have been following the exploits of the slightly overweight, somewhat insecure and perpetually 34 year old, will soon find themselves going through withdrawal.
The comic strip “Cathy,” which has chronicled the life, frustrations and swimsuit season meltdowns of its namesake for more than 30 years, is coming to an end.
Cathy Guisewite, the strip’s creator, announced on Wednesday that she is ending the popular cartoon’s run. Ms. Guisewite, 59, said the autobiographical strip has been “the most astonishing form of therapy,” but her “creative biological clock” was ticking and she wanted to try something else - although she is not sure what.
The comic has won several awards, including a 1992 National Cartoonists Society’s Reuben Award and an Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program in 1987, and at its height appeared in 1,400 papers.
The final “Cathy” strip, will run in newspapers on Sunday, Oct. 3.
