Competitive eating vies with family expectations in a funny, heartfelt novel for middle-grade readers by National Book Award winner Pete Hautman.

David can eat an entire sixteen-inch pepperoni pizza in four minutes and thirty-six seconds. Not bad. But he knows he can do better. In fact, he'll have to do better: he's going to compete in the Super Pigorino Bowl, the world's greatest pizza-eating contest, and he has to win it, because he borrowed his mom's credit card and accidentally spent $2,000 on it. So he really needs that prize money. Like, yesterday. As if training to be a competitive eater weren't enough, he's also got to keep an eye on his little brother, Mal (who, if the family believed in labels, would be labeled autistic, but they don't, so they just label him Mal). And don't even get started on the new weirdness going on between his two best friends, Cyn and HeyMan. Master talent Pete Hautman has cooked up a rich narrative shot through with equal parts humor and tenderness, and the result is a middle-grade novel too delicious to put down.

I've been using for a month
I've been using the "Free to Be Me" internal supplement for a month and I noticed a difference after a week or two, and I'm very pleased to report that I am a repeat customer and will put this on subscription. I've been a Puriya customer for many years, and use Mother of All Creams daily. Adding this product has made a real difference. My skin is sensitive in that light touches, such as hair, feathers, and even bed covers, cause an itching reaction. It's not as bad now. I have noticed less itching at bedtime and am wearing my hair down more often. I think the effect is cumulative, and the ingredients must be nourishing in a way that my body needs. I've heard that the skin is the first line of defense in the body, so I'm fortunate to find products like these that are reasonably priced for the quality, and that I can use in comfort, knowing that I am not using ingredients that are harsh in the body.

This product really Works !! Wow , I have had Ezema for 30 years and this helps !!!
I really was tired after 30 years of using expensive ointments and creams .. So hesitant about a pill formula, I said, Why not ? And I do love this Company! I had used the Mother of All Creams before and loved it but the price got a little too expensive? But I still love it ! So I tried this pill for my Ezema and let me tell you something, I was amazed at how fast it cured up my red itchy rash that had annoyed me for all last Summer ! I had even been bitten by a tick and it did not even itch !! Not joking People ! But it says take 2 pills a day , I take 3 daily because my Ezema is Chronic ! Thanks so much Puriya !! And please keep producing this product !!! M.W.

Not a recommend , was refunded
Again, maybe it helps others. Does nothing for me. I went all out and purchased the face wash, Mother of all Creams and these supplements. My skin actually got more itchy and felt greasy. So over $70. down the drain for me. The company refunded me for all 3 items. They stand behind their product. Perhaps I have a sensitivity or something of an allergy to an ingredient or 2 in the formulas. I followed instructions and it was after about a week and a half of use I just had to stop. I have always had sensitive skin.
