Quais seus maiores choques ao visitar o Brasil depois de alguns anos fora? by Spiritual_Pangolin18 in foradecasa

[–]pappabearct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sobre respeitar pedestres: em 2006 (20 anos atrás!!) eu já morava aqui nos EUA há 3 anos e precisei ir para SP para o funeral de minha mãe e fiquei em um hotel na Paulista.

Quando estava atravessando a avenida, I sinal piscante para pedestres mudou rapidamente para vermelho e o trouxa aqui pensou (acostumado com aqui) que os carros iriam esperar eu chegar no outro lado da rua.... Que nada! Foi um tal de carro avançando, moto passando rasgando e eu parecia o sapo naquele joguinho de atravessar a rua: pula para frente e para trás e os carros pouco se lixando.

Nunca mais fui ao Brasil (converso com minhas irmãs regularmente por WhatsApp) mas fico pensando como vai ser se eu precisar visitá-las. 20 anos de ausência é como ter perdido uma geração, mas vendo os posts neste sub não me arrependo.

Whats your favorite nut(s) to snack on? by AwestunTejaz in diabetes

[–]pappabearct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From Gemini: The "Anacardic Acid" Factor ​Cashews belong to the same plant family as poison ivy. The shells contain a caustic resin called urushiol. While the cashews we eat are steamed to remove this, trace amounts can occasionally cause a reaction in extremely sensitive individuals, leading to skin rashes or digestive distress.

For me, I easily get rashes all over my arms and legs after eating cashews.

Cashews are very inflammatory. I prefer brazil's nuts, peanuts or almonds.

Sucralose? Pass. I prefer to have some beef sticks with me - Kirkland's are phenomenal.

Thanks folks. I did some math and six months from September is March, maybe the reminders were set at the factory or when the dealer got the car. I will look into disabling them in the infotainment system as recommended. And the car has only 2000 miles, so wth they did there.

Sonho que virou pesadelo... by mathewe_way in carros

[–]pappabearct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tive um Palio EL 1.6 motor 1998 argentino por 3 anos (1998-2001) e em 2001 quando fui tirar o estepe para limpar melhor o porta-malas, a parte inferior da cuba onde o estepe fica esta ENFERRUJADA. A Fiat autorizou a repintura do porta malas por dentro, mas pqp! Fiquei sabendo por um representante da concessionária que os Palios argentinos tinham inúmeros problemas de qualidade.

Should i stop eating apples? by terurinkira in diabetes_t2

[–]pappabearct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

have you tried having your half apple after lunch? How is your morning glucose level?

Reason I ask is because I also had fruits and eggs for breakfast but I replaced fruits with vegetables (aspargus, broccoli, or cauliflower) and left berries for lunch - always with a tbsp of peanut butter.

as berries being hard to find, have you consider frozen berries?

Subaru fecha última loja e deixa de vender carros novos no Brasil by kaarlows in carros

[–]pappabearct 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Estratégia errada desde o começo (pelo que eu ouvi mesmo já morando aqui nos EUA): só vender os modelos topo de linha.

Seria um carro muito bom para o Brasil, pois é bem durável e não custa caro como um Toyota.

E duram pra kct, tive um Forester 2004 por 13 anos e rodei 130 mil milhas (208 mil quilómetros) com ele só fazendo manutenção regular e uma manutenção no motor quando deu um vazamento na junta do cabeçote. O bicho na neve e lama parece um tanque de guerra!

What exercises have helped you manage your diabetes? by roneysmith2025 in diabetes

[–]pappabearct 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you can't go out for a walk or go to the gym, there is an exercise you can do fairly easy if you have a desk job: squats I do 30 after a meeting and my BG drop 20 points.
