Niko enjoys the bouncing cab ride a little more than she expected. They call it the G-Shot . Collagen is injected on top of the G-spot (if it exists) to enhance its size. The G-Shot was invented by a Doc in LA (of course) who claims it enhances sexual arousal and gratification. I hadn't heard of the G-shot till yesterday, when OBS Housekeeper emailed me asking if it was for real. Apparently, Niko had her G-spot enhanced in the season opener of Lipstick Jungle . Talk about product placement - it was a silly plot angle that really made little sense in an episode ... Read Full Story

Cast an even wider net and tie your brand name to the symptoms of ... Read Full Story

The World Health Organization has termed urinary incontinence as taboo. This condition, by the very nature of it, is ultra secretive. It is not something we chat about over tea. It is estimated that more than 13.5 million people in the U.S. and 7.5 million people in the U.K. suffer from urinary incontinence . Of those, less than a third seek help. How many of us are really open to alternative healing methods? Have you wondered why there is no cure available in conventional medicine? There is no one reason for it's cause, therefore the one dimensional treatment does not work. There is a ... Read Full Story
