Advil Menstrual Pain Tablets Review


When I first received my free sample of Advil Menstrual Pain Tablets from Smiley360 I was excited. I was looking forward to trying a new way to end some of my period woes. The first thing I noticed was the packaging. It is definitely geared towards women (obviously), with it's pink/purple additions to the usual Advil label. I flipped over the box to check out it's active ingredients. I was a little disappointed at this point. The only active ingredients in this product are ibuprofin, and ibuprofin sodium. While these products are great for inflammation (aka a big part of cramps), I wasn't impressed with the fact that it was the only active ingredients. However, I'm not one to judge a book by it's cover, so I gave it a go! My first day is always the worst day. It can be debilitating. I started my morning with 1 Advil Menstrual Pain tablet, and after four hours I took another. While it helped a little with my cramps, it did nothing for my bloating or fatigue. Over the course of Monday I took a total of four tablets. While I am excited to see companies like Advil branching out and tailoring products more towards women's needs, I feel like Advil Menstrual Pain was lacking what I needed. Especially compared to it's competing products. If I'm in a pinch, this will be my go-to for relief. Unfortunately it isn't replacing my current relief in the main medicine cabinet.


GEEKSTRESS RATED: 5/10
TRY IT OR BUY IT?: Try it yourself, but I don't recommend it for relief of anything but some cramps and back aches. (It didn't even fully take either away for me)
SUPER BOMB or SUPER BUST: Let's just go with bust here

When You Want Some Easy Comfort Food...

Imagine, it's Sunday morning. Last week was rough, and you could use a simple dinner idea that everyone will love. Queue Chile Verde. It's simple, and delicious. And my recipe isn't necessarily the traditional way to make it, but amazing nonetheless! Here's what you'll need: 2 lb. pork loin roast, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes 1 - 16oz. jar salsa verde (we used Pace, but you can use any brand you trust!) 1 - 7oz. can diced green chiles (we used store brand for this one) 3 lg. red potatoes, cut into 1 inch cubes (Russets also work well with this meal, so use what you have or looks good at the store this week!) 1 tbsp. minced garlic (if you want to mince it yourself, it's about 3 cloves fresh garlic) 1/4 tsp. ground cumin 1 tsp. dried oregano 1/2 tsp. garlic powder Salt & Pepper, to taste Steps! (Some of which have photos!) Wash and cube your potatoes. You want each piece to be about 1 to 1 1/2 inches. Toss 'em in the crock pot. I...
