Wacky Uses - Alka Seltzer


Today I heard an interesting bit of info on the radio about "Alka Seltzer".

What is Alka Seltzer?


  • an antacid and pain relief medicine
  • FAST RELIEF
  • Good remedy for heartburn, acid indigestion, sour stomach with headache, body aches and pains

The point on the radio was, what else can you do with a couple of Alka Seltzers?

According to Joey Green, you can also use Alka Seltzer tablets to clean a toilet, clean a vase, polish jewelry, unclog a drain and soothe insect bites...wow, and it's also good for your stomach!

Question of the day: Do you know of anything else that is so multipurpose (think duct tape)?

** Checkout "Wacky Uses" if you can't think of one ;-)

See Joey Green's site - Wackyuses.com


And you've got to see his video too, it's hilarious!
