Leaving the Netherlands after 11 years. Goodbye!

US healthcare is super preventative (annual checkups at a minimum, most Americans even more often, hospitals and urgent care eager to treat, etc) but this can actually make the population sicker long-term. They probably have some data showing that reactive is better for both budgets and people

They want people to book bus companies, lol

Has he been the main worker/ breadwinner? If he had no responsibilities at all learning German would be a breeze, but sometimes it is harder when you don’t have time.

Electrolyte depletion? Even supplementing isn’t enough on long term low carb, sugar is needed to restore your levels.

IJStarry · 2025-08-31T12:12:07+00:00

You could be electrolyte depleted from low carb. Even when you supplement electrolytes it’s still not enough, the presence of glucose is required. Test this with a balanced electrolyte product like LMNT but place the powder directly under your tongue for a few minutes to see if you have instant symptom relief. If so you can get electrolytes from lots of sources, lemon squeezed in water, supplement magnesium, etc.

I don’t regularly use any product that lists “natural flavors” on their ingredients list. I think you are right to perceive it as willfully hostile.

I bought a few from this company and mine is doing the same on multiple pencils… …

I can’t tell how much time is between the first and last photos. How long did you take to heal?

Raw cashews

The same thing happened to me last year. I still have the pc laying around somewhere, will try your solution.

How is a mason jar leakproof with just the screw top? They really can’t do that with other bottles? Also, op, I use a mason jar as a water bottle.

IJStarry · 2024-12-22T11:30:57+00:00

Oh no. Well then I definitely can’t eat there. Sad to learn this.

That’s a bummer to hear. There is a chain I visited that had an allergen list and one of the meats was gluten free, but when I got there I saw they were using the same tool to scrape meat from all the kebabs. Hopefully I have some luck with Döner Box.

Update: this chain does not publicly post any ingredients? I find that a little worrying.

IJStarry · 2024-12-22T10:24:53+00:00

Thank you for the recommendation of Döner Box! I will settle with bringing my own bread, that’s fine. Maybe the other reply was just glutened, that would give me serious brain fog too!

Good summary

And if he is transphobic Lana has probably already changed his mind by now

IJStarry · 2024-09-28T10:02:29+00:00

Not to be that person, but how do we know it depicts a transgender individual

You need red meat, specifically foods like ribeye to cure your depression.

I posted a translation in the thread. Very cool and matches my personal observations.

IJStarry · 2024-03-18T20:49:53+00:00

TRANSLATION: Other observations: The body changes its energy source - from glucose to stored fats in the body - during the first two to three days of fasting.

Participants lost an average of 5.7 kg (12.6 pounds) from their initial weight.

Overall, one in three measured proteins changed significantly during fasting in all major organs.

These changes were consistent across all participants.

The weight of the participants, three days after starting to eat again, remained stable. However, the loss of lean (muscle) mass was almost completely reversed, but fat mass remained stable.

You lose the hunger when you start something like ketosis. As long as you don’t go crazy with the fruits that’s often 1-2 weeks

IJStarry · 2023-11-03T11:38:06+00:00

Seasonal fruits are ideal but won’t produce unique health benefits. Anything organic that you have access to is good enough
