@paulsaladinomd@BlaineFode I eat a lot of sardines and though my heavy metals test came back pretty clean for most issues, the arsenic topped the list pretty high compared to others. No mercury but lots of arsenic.
@trikomes@MitoPsychoBio Looking forward to listening to it! I’ve been learning so much from your in-depth podcasts. Really appreciate them and am a happy subscriber.
@LisaSelinDavis Yes, I weaned off it slowly years ago. Took some 8 or 8 months and the help of an integrative/acupuncturist medical doctor. You can do it!
@trikomes I wear a CGM and it’s fascinating how the same foods sometimes spike and sometimes don’t, given other circumstances. For me, workouts tank my glucose. And oranges and some beans don’t spike me.
@trikomes I remember tasting a David bar when I first heard of it and I also remember that it was the worst protein bar I ever had. I had to throw out the whole box they made me order.
@ChrisMasterjohn Interesting. I grew up in Eastern Europe and remember having to take cod liver oil. To this day raspberry jam, which I was given after it to ameliorate the lingering taste, brings back that taste of the oil too.
Matt Walsh and these other right-wing empty men who think they're avatars of über-masculinity particularly hate Alex Pretti because he exemplified the virtues they love to extol but are too cowardly to actually embody.
They cosplay as trad men by dressing up in campy plaid shirts and sitting in podcast studios with a log cabin aesthetic.
Alex Pretti went to the street to fight for causes he believed in, protected and helped others in both how he protested (he was helping two women when ICE grabbed him) and in his work as an ICU nurse. He lived the values they pretend defines them, all while they lack the courage to ever do or risk anything. He's a reminder to them of what they're not: a mirror showing their own fragility.
That's why they feel vicariously strong watching ICE agents shoot him in the back and killed him.
@RogerSeheult@kavehkavoosi I was diagnosed with thyroid nodules after heavy use of blue tooth headphone and am being monitored now. I also had parathyroid surgery for an adenoma so the only headphones I use now are wired ones.
@nicknorwitz This has been great! As someone with IBD in remission and also 0 CAC score and rising LDL levels on a low carb diet (and lean and in my 70s) I am getting pressured to take statins but not opting for them as I keep experimenting too.
@CaitlinPacific I remember it well too. Have seen firsthand too how in a crisis situation like this there are no options for handling it in the current system.
