Pumpkin Seeds And Their Health Benefits

The pumpkin fared better than the tomato and potato as regards the suspicions of the Europeans and it was widely cultivated.

Purlisse: The Differences And Benefits Of BB And CC Creams

Today we present to you a portion of the Purlisse Blog, where they discuss the differences and benefits of BB and CC creams: WHAT IS A BB CREAM?

Alcohol’s Harms Are Easy To Document, But Health Benefits Hard To Prove

Alcohol is the most widely used drug in the world, including in the United States. About 70 percent of adults in the United States report past-year alcohol consumption, with over 37 million drinkers reporting binge drinking (defined for women as four or more drinks per occasion, and five or more drinks per occasion for men) at least once a week.
