      <description><![CDATA[How many of you have went to the grocery store with your baby? Now, thinking back to the last time you went, which was what this week, how clean were the carts or even the store?
IMG: MyClyns
Many times moms/dads end up doing some type of shopping with the baby with them and have no other choice but to place their beautiful baby inside a germ infested cart. Right? It&#8217;s gross and sure they might wipe them down but not all day long and how do you know if the last baby or person to touch the rail (handlebar) wasn&#8217;t sick.
MyClyns has a &#8220;germ protection spray&#8221; out that you can carry around with you. It almost looks like a large pen that you can slide in your jacket or for us moms stick in your purse or diaper bag. This of course means you can pull it out during a movie, eating out, or grocery shopping. Now the difference with this little &#8220;MyClyns&#8221; spray is you can spray it directly on the surface of the thing possibly infected, this includes children. Not to worry I tested it on myself before spraying my children, they look at it was a water gun that kills germs.
MyClyns, a new alcohol-free, germ protection spray that you can immediately use on your face when exposed to harmful pathogens. The non-toxic, non-burning spray contains a fast-acting solution that has shown to reduce more than 60 potentially dangerous germs, including MRSA, staph and E-coli*.

This product is used by more than just moms and dads, so don&#8217;t think that just because you don&#8217;t have a child doesn&#8217;t mean you don&#8217;t need one. Think about how many germs you are coming into contact with daily. Gross right?
Others that use it are:police, firefighters, EMS, and healthcare workers

Struggling to find the right paint colors for your baby&#8217;s nursery or your kid&#8217;s room? Try these two iPhone apps from Benjamin Moore and Sherman Williams
Picking your primary colors for a room can be just as tricky and meandering a task. There are SO MANY great colors, shades, hues and tones to choose from, and it&#8217;s hard to know where to start. That&#8217;s why I love the iPhone apps created by paint companies Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore. They&#8217;re like writer&#8217;s block erasers, in visual (and virtual) form.

      <title><![CDATA[FDA Reversal on BPA]]></title>
      <link>http://www.thefashionablebambino.com/2010/02/09/fda-reversal-on-bpa/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This article was originally published a MoldRecovery.blogspot.com by Andrea Fabry and is used with her permission.

The following article recently appeared in the Washington Post. If the government can reverse itself on something like this, it might not be long before they&#8217;re reversing their policy on mold.
The Food and Drug Administration has reversed its position on the safety of Bisphenol A, a chemical found in plastic bottles, soda cans, food containers and thousands of consumer goods, saying it now has concerns about health risks.
Growing scientific evidence has linked the chemical to a host of problems, including cancer, sexual dysfunction and heart disease. Federal officials said they are particularly concerned about BPA&#8217;s effect on the development of fetuses, infants and young children.
&#8220;We have some concern, which leads us to recommend reasonable steps the public can take to reduce exposure to BPA,&#8221; said Joshua Sharfstein, FDA&#8217;s deputy commissioner, in a conference call to reporters Friday.
Regulators stopped short of banning the compound or even requiring manufacturers to label products containing BPA, saying that current data are not clear enough to support a legal crackdown. FDA officials also said they were hamstrung from dealing quickly with BPA by an outdated regulatory framework.
Sharfstein said the agency is conducting &#8220;targeted&#8221; studies of BPA, part of a two-year, $30 million effort by the administration to answer key questions about the chemical that will help determine what action, if any, is necessary to protect public health. The Obama administration pledged to take a &#8220;fresh look&#8221; at the chemical.
BPA, used to harden plastics, is so prevalent that more than 90 percent of the U.S. population has traces of it in its urine, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Researchers have found that BPA leaches from containers into food and beverages, even at cold temperatures.
The FDA&#8217;s announcement came after extensive talks between federal agencies and the White House about the best approach to an issue that has become a significant concern for consumers and the chemical industry.
One administration official privy to the talks said the FDA is in a quandary. &#8220;They have new evidence that makes them worried, but they don&#8217;t have enough proof to justify pulling the stuff, so what do you do?&#8221; said the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. &#8220;You want to warn people, but you don&#8217;t want to create panic.&#8221;
The FDA had long maintained that BPA is safe, relying largely on two studies funded by the chemical industry. The agency was faulted by its own panel of independent science advisers in 2008, which said its position on BPA was scientifically flawed because it ignored more than 100 published studies by government scientists and university laboratories that raised health concerns about BPA. Recent data found health effects even at low doses of BPA &#8212; lower than the levels considered safe by the FDA.
The chemical industry, which produces more than 6 billion tons of BPA annually and has been fighting restrictions on its use, said Friday&#8217;s announcement was good news because the agency did not tell people to stop using products containing the chemical.
&#8220;The science continues to support the safety of BPA,&#8221; said Steven Hentges of the American Chemistry Council.
In a statement, the industry group said: &#8220;Plastics made with BPA contribute safety and convenience to our daily lives because of their durability, clarity and shatter-resistance. Can liners and food-storage containers made with BPA are essential components to helping protect the safety of packaged foods. . . . ACC remains committed to consumer safety, and will continue to review new scientific studies concerning the safety of BPA.&#8221;
Bisphenol A was discovered to be a synthetic estrogen in the 1930s. By the 1950s, chemists found BPA could be used to make polycarbonate plastics, giving them a &#8220;shatterproof&#8221; quality, and the uses for the chemical exploded.
But recently, consumers have placed increasing pressure on manufacturers and retailers to migrate away from BPA. In 2008, Babies R Us and other major retailers told suppliers they would no longer stock baby bottles made with BPA. Last year, the six largest manufacturers of baby bottles announced they would voluntarily stop selling bottles made with Bisphenol A to consumers in the United States.
But BPA remains in the epoxy linings of most canned goods, including baby formula. Research has shown that it leaches from the linings into liquid formula, but not powdered formula.
Environmental groups, public health advocates and consumer organizations applauded the FDA for recognizing concern about BPA, but some said the agency didn&#8217;t go far enough.
&#8220;It&#8217;s really a shame after all of the studies out there that they didn&#8217;t do anything to protect the public health,&#8221; said Urvashi Rangan, director of technical policy at Consumers Union. &#8220;How many pieces of evidence do we need before we have enough to act?&#8221;
Canada declared BPA a toxin and banned it from baby bottles in 2008. Similar restrictions have taken root in Chicago, Minnesota, Connecticut and Suffolk County in New York. In Congress, Sens. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Rep. Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.) have filed a bill that would block BPA from all food and drink packaging.
As it awaits additional research results, the FDA plans to change the way it classifies BPA so that it can exercise tighter controls over the chemical, Sharfstein said. Currently, BPA is approved as a &#8220;food additive,&#8221; which means manufacturers are not required to tell the government which products contain BPA and in what amounts. The agency wants to reclassify it as a &#8220;food contact material,&#8221; which would require greater disclosure from manufacturers and would allow the FDA to take fast action if it determined that the material posed a health risk.
The Department of Health and Human Services has released recommended ways for the public to reduce exposure to BPA. It can be found at http://www.hhs.gov/safety/bpa.

      <link>http://www.vitabeat.com/6680/fda-seeks-reduction-radiation-medical-scans</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The U.S. Food and Drug Administration unveiled a plan Tuesday to reduce radiation exposure from three types of increasingly widespread imaging procedures: computed tomography (CT), nuclear medicine studies and fluoroscopy.

These three imaging techniques are the largest contributors to total radiation exposure among Americans. They use much higher radiation doses than other imaging procedures, such as standard X-rays, dental X-rays and mammography, potentially increasing the lifetime risk of cancer, the agency said.]]></description>

      <title><![CDATA[Tips for Reading Food Labels]]></title>
      <link>http://www.themomsbuzz.com/moms_buzz/2010/02/tips-for-reading-food-labels.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Here are 4 good tips on how to read and understand food labels given by Dr. David L. Katz, MD, when interviewed by O Magazine this month:




Don&#39;t trust the packaging.&#0160; Just because it says &quot;reduced fat&quot; or &quot;smart choice&quot; it doesn&#39;t mean it&#39;s good for you.&#0160; Many products that are labeled as healthier are not really healthier.

Scan the ingredients. Note the first few on the list because those are the most abundant. For example, when you are buying bread, you want to see the word whole grain on the list.&#0160; Also avoid words like &quot;hydrogenated oils&quot; because those are code words for trans fats, which are linked to an increased risk of heart disease, stroke and diabetes.&#0160; 

Look for fiber.&#0160; When buying bread, cereal, pasta or any type of carbohydrates, you want to see at least two grams of fiber per serving and ideally three or more.

Check the fat content.&#0160; You do not wan to see any trans fats listed on the label, and remember that unsaturated fat is better than saturated. The most of fat you want to see on the label is 3 grams of fat per serving on most foods.

      <description><![CDATA[Fashionable Media Review Policy: The featured product for this review was provided to me, at no cost, by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing. Opinions expressed are my own and are not influenced by monetary compensation.

Miracle in Sumatra, written by Jeanne McNaney, is a fictional account of a young orangutan named Gutsy Gus. Gus is introduced to the world of humans, who are not concerned with the environment, endangered species or wildlife conservation. All they care about is money in their pocket. Then Gus is called upon to perform a courageous act on behalf of his father and mother, not to mention the rest of the orangutan population. With the encouragement of his guardian Angel, Gus completes the task with bravery! 
This book introduces children to the importance of caring for the environment and the creatures that live in it. Ms. McNaney does this in a way that is imaginative and relevant for children between ages 4-8. 
My children, the five who were at home when I read them this book, all enjoyed this story very much. 
A percentage of the sales of this book are being donated to organizations supporting wildlife conservation and endangered species preservation.
Miracle in Sumatra retails for $18.95, is a hardcover and may be purchased at major bookstores, such as Amazon.com and Borders.com.

      <description><![CDATA[
You get to do things the way you want to &#8212; decorate the house, raise the kid with that crazy &#8216;positive parenting&#8217; sh** your ex couldn&#8217;t stand
Tiptoeing into their bedrooms at night to steal one last glimpse, one last kiss, and never have that moment ruined by returning to a grumpy spouse
You never have to look over your shoulder or feel less than worthy
Your friends can come over any time, and you don&#8217;t have to make sure it&#8217;s &#8216;okay&#8217;
When your child says, &#8220;I love you,&#8221; every struggle in your day to day world melts away, and everything you&#8217;ve done to make it work for you is worth it.
