Okay, this is coming about a week late....just got my laptop up and running again. SO, this product is a must have!!!! MAJOR DRAWBACK: It is being discontinued!!!! I know....it sucks big time. There should be some left in stores. If you can find it, BUY IT!!! It's worth it. I found four jars at CVS yesterday, and you know I bought them all! Hopefully I can find some more. I saw the new product that is replacing this one. The ingredients are totally different. ARRRR!! It has propolene glycol and all sorts of other stuff in it that arent so good for natural hair.

How To Safely Clean Your Baby's Ears
Safe and proper ear cleaning is one of the most commonly misunderstood aspects of personal hygiene. For parents, the issue of whether to clean the baby's ears is often fraught with confusion. One the one hand, earwax buildup can be acutely uncomfortable; on the other, cleaning the ear risks causing infection or damaging the baby's delicate eardrum.
Earwax is actually beneficial
Cerumen, the substance commonly known as earwax, is a combination of several chemicals (including cholesterol) that's secreted by many of the same glands that help keep the body's skin moist and hydrated. It's manufactured in the outer ear canal but carried towards the ear's edge by the movement of the jaw, taking dirt, dust and other harmful agents along with it.
Earwax varies among different ethnic groups. Among Asians and Native Americans, earwax is flaky and gray. Caucasian and Afrocentric peoples typically have earwax that is damp and honey- or brown-colored.
Cleaning baby's delicate ears
Parents are strongly encouraged to let their baby's doctors clean the child's ears during routine wellness visits. They'll use special instrumentation that won't prove a danger to puncturing or scratching the eardrum.
If you notice that waxy buildup is covering the eardrum, however, you may wish to remove the wax yourself. Excessive earwax around the ear canal can put pressure on baby's eardrum, resulting in balance problems and severe discomfort.
Never insert a cotton swab, your finger, or any other cleaning implement into your child's ear canal. Even light contact is enough to scratch the eardrum. Moreover, cotton swabs can pack the dirt, dust, and other harmful particulate matter closer to the eardrum, actually increasing the risk of infection.
Some health care item manufacturers promote special bell-shaped swabs for cleaning the baby's outer ear. While these are safety-tested to present no danger to the child's inner ear, parents should still use them with caution.
Preventing waxy buildup
Earwax buildup can be slowed simply by keeping the child's ear and neck area clean. Parents can even use a cotton swab or ball dipped in warm water or peroxide around the ear bud and neck area for maximum cleanliness. Just make sure that none gets inside the ear canal.
When the child gets older
The child can begin cleaning its own ears as soon as it can understand the safe use of cotton swabs. Parents can introduce safe ear cleaning about the same time they teach the correct way to wash hair and trim fingernails and toenails.

The Miracle UMF Manuka Honey
What is UMF Manuka Honey?
Unique Manuka Factor or commonly known as UMF is the only worldwide standard in identifying and measuring the antibacterial strength or quality of some strains of Manuka. It is a guarantee that the honey being sold has the special UMF antibacterial property and a UMF rating of 10 is the minimum recognised. Ordinary manuka has only the hydrogen peroxide antibacterial property which is common to most types of honey, whereas UMF Manuka has both the natural hydrogen peroxide antibacterial property and its own natural UMF antibacterial property, giving it increased antibacterial potency. The UMF property is very stable, unlike the hydrogen peroxide antibacterial property common in most honey which is easily destroyed by heat, light as well as certain enzymes in body serum.
UMF Manuka is the preferred honey for wound dressing and other special therapeutic uses and studies are showing Manuka with high levels of UMF could be very effective in helping relieve stomach ulcer symptoms and gastritis, and sore throats, and when applied topically, in assisting the natural healing of skin ulcers, wounds, burns, boils, cracked skin. That is also why many skincare products also contain UMF manuka as a special ingredient and promise positive benefits from their regular application on the skin.
UMF is not in the nectar of all Manuka flowers, which are known as Leptospermum scoparium and belong to the the Tea Tree bushes found only in New Zealand's costal areas. Some Manuka bushes do not produce honey with the UMF property every year, and the concentrations of UMF can vary from batch to batch and year to year. The reason why only some Manuka honeys have the unique UMF antibacterial property is not yet known. It could be from a subspecies of Manuka or due to some environmental factor such as soil type. In the shop, you will find the varying UMF strengths - UMF 10, UMF 15, UMF 20, UMF 25, and the higher the UMF, the more expensive is the honey. All genuine UMF manuka honeys are packed into jars and labelled with a registered trademark UMF® in New Zealand by licensed companies, and have a rating of UMF 10 or more. These licensed users of the UMF® label have to meet standards of regular monitoring and auditing of their honey quality. So if you come across an UMF honey which is packed in another country other than New Zealand, or a jar which labelled UMF 8, you should know something is amiss.
Another reason why Manuka honey, which is available in most Kiwi homes, is favoured by so many honey fans is that it has a higher than normal conductivity, which is an indirect measurement of mineral content of a honey -- about 4 times that of normal flower honeys. I particularly love the taste of Manuka honey - it has a lot of depth and a unique unforgetable foresty aroma stands out amongst the honey varieties. I often find myself mixing a tablespoon of the honey with warm water or hot tea whenever I experience sore throat, cough, cold or flu symptoms, or when feel "heatiness" in my body. Now, the honey shops here (in Singapore) also sell New Zealand made Manuka honey lozenges for soothing the throat. I paid about 9 Sing dollars (about 6 US dollars) for a pack of 20 such honey drops with UMF 20+ and propolis which contained very high level of bioflavonoids. Its ant-inflammatory properties worked perfect in curing my phelmy throat and it was delicious despite that it tasted a bit bitter due to the propolis, and it gave me a slight numbing effect on my tongue as I sucked it.
