Chlorofresh Chlorophyll Concentrate (Internal Deodorant) 50 mg, 90 Soft Gels
First to recommend
Description
Well, we know that stink comes from the inside and works its gnarly way out. So this product makes perfect theoretical sense. It's safe, natural and eco-friendly. It contains a special chlorophyll, extracted from premium alfalfa leaves and concentrated for maximum effectiveness. Chlorofresh is used chiefly as an aid to reduce odor from a colostomy or ileostomy and to reduce fecal odor. It's just an odd concept: internal deodorant. In an emergency, this may just come in handy for a variety of reasons. Hell, if your B.O. is out of control no matter how much you scrub and deodorize yourself, maybe this product is worth a try.

Bear Spray Guard Alaska Bear Pepper Spray
First to recommend
Description
Guard Alaska Bear Spray is the No.1 Bear Pepper Spray Worldwide. It is said to work on any type of wildlife, including bulls and alligators. It is absolutely the most effective and powerful bear pepper spray available today! It is environmentally safe! Does not contain flammable or ozone depleting substances. This formula is a scientifically proven superior 20% concentration, and endorsed by the Alaska Science & Technology Foundation. It sprays 20 feet and contains 9 oz. of stinging hot pepper spray to chase those critters away. Contains 9 one second shots.
You get a 9-oz. super-size spray can, 8 3/4 x 2" diam. Environmentally safe and EPA approved. Works on all critters! (One of the only non-Canadian brands to be approved for sale in Canada).
I also figure, if this stuff can take down a grizzly at 20 feet. Surely, it can deter a couple of obnoxious drunken men! (via defensedevices.com)
