9 Eye Opening Inaccuracies We Make About Eating Eggs

Here’s what we know for sure: Eggs are a nutritional powerhouse. A single egg has six grams of high-quality protein, iron, vitamins, minerals, and carotenoids. They’re also rich in disease-fighting nutrients like lutein and choline. But the best part about eggs is their outstanding versatility.

Amazon Shoppers Love The Woffit Storage Chest

The Woffit Extra Large Storage Chest is, as the name implies, a sizable (it’s 30-inches long, by 16-inches tall, and 15-inches deep) organizing bin that holds everything from throw pillows and blankets to toys, books and magazines, or whatever else needs a home. The chest is collapsible, so it can be easily stored when not in use, but it quickly pops up and into place when you need it.

Baby Shower Etiquette

Who decides who is invited—the guest of honor or the host? Since the host bears the expense of the party, it is up to her to determine the number of guests she’s comfortable accommodating. If the shower is not a surprise, the host should give the honoree that figure and ask whom she’d like to invite. For a surprise party, the honoree’s college roommate trumps the host’s book club buddies (sorry)....

Benjamin Moore S Color Of The Year 2023 Is Here And It S A Showstopper

In the process of choosing the 2023 Color of the Year, even the color experts had to push themselves out of their comfort zone, says Andrea Magno, color marketing and development director at Benjamin Moore. After originally selecting a softer palette that she says “didn’t really make a statement and take a stand,” they decided to go bolder. “It’s about choosing one color and really making that the hero. A lot of times, particularly with neutrals, the walls become the backdrop and it’s the other elements that take center stage....

Chrissy Teigen & Kris Jenner Safely Cleaning Products

Humorous Marketing In response to the brand’s launch, many have predictably pointed out that the celebs likely don’t do as much of their household cleaning as, well, the rest of us. But the lighthearted brand is clearly in on the joke, with tongue-in-cheek marketing images that include Teigen doing laundry while dressed in couture. Having been close for years, Jenner says that Teigen’s sense of humor (she was even a judge on the comedy competition show Bring the Funny) was one of the reasons she was excited to work with her on this collab....

Coconut Oil Benefits For Hair And Skin And How To Use It

Coconut Oil Benefits First a quick chemistry lesson. All of the plant oils in the beauty space have a different combination of omega fatty acids and other components, and the different ratios of these are what give each plant oil its specific benefits and sensory qualities, explains Krupa Koestline, a clean cosmetic chemist and founder of KKT Consultants. Virgin coconut oil, in particular, is rich in lauric, myristic, and palmitic acids (more on what those do in a moment), and consists mainly of medium chain triglycerides (MCT), she says....

Cooling Weighted Blanket Review Hush Iced Weighted Blanket

Most weighted blankets are heavy, thick, dense, and fluffy—all characteristics that mean bad news for hot or sweaty sleepers. For these types, curling up under a weighted blanket for a nap might be just fine, but sleeping under them all night long means turning into an overheated, pajama-clad mess. And in the warmer months of the year, almost anyone might find themselves getting a little hot while sleeping or resting under their weighted blanket....

Corn Nutrition, Health Benefits, And Recipes

To reap the most health benefits of corn, Davis recommends eating it in its least-processed form. Fresh corn on the cob (roasted, grilled, or boiled), or frozen corn (flash-frozen at the peak of freshness and steamed until al dente), are both fantastic ways to enjoy its sweet kernels in all their glory. Minimally processed corn tortillas can be a great option, too, she says, adding that it’s always smart to look at the quality of the corn used and sodium content....
