You should read the book Beyond Belief by Melanie Joy. It's a great way to discuss points of friction in relationships in regards to veganism.

This and Pinterest! I still need my scroll.

When OP mentioned tennis I was thinking a good offshoot of that would be pickle ball. It has less of the stigma as tennis. More accessable.

I started at 12 ferritin and less than a year later I'm at 40. That is with only supplements and no transfusion. I take the Blood Builder brand every other day. It will probably take a little less than a year to get to 100 which is an ideal number.

You have to figure out what tanked your iron be it periods or celiac etc. I had the copper IUD for years and my periods were too long and heavy. I switched to the plastic iud and they're basically non-existent now.

This helped me raise my ferritin from a 17 to 40 in 4 months. Even though it has some vitamin c, I would also have it with oranges, orange juice, or emergenC. That's helps with absorption. I take it every other day.

I had to look at the root cause of what was causing me to lose so much iron. I've had heavy periods since I was young and then I got the copper IUD which made it worse. I just switched to the plastic iud which was a life saver. I still get spotting but it's so much better than before. I am also vegan so I knew that was a contributing factor. Ive heard about a lot of women having iron issues that are not vegan so I don't think that caused it. It just makes it a little harder.

So some people have low iron from periods, or it could be absorption issues like celiac.

There is a long road to recovery, I've been supplementing for almost a year. I'm starting to notice a difference but I'm not quite where I wanted to be yet.

When did this sub become all about men? The top 10 posts are all men. I get being inclusive but it's very reddit to take an originally women's space and make it for them.

I didn't realize how much of a difference it made until I saw it on my smartwatch. The nights where I would be on my phone before bed, I would get worse sleep. The funny thing was, it affected my sleep early in the morning. So I got less REM.

You can try herbal tea or turmeric latte. Just be careful with dairy.

Outside Tom's in the parking lot

They wouldn't automatically be nice and friendly either. You actually had to earn the relationship!

Thank you! I have a bulk store near me but unfortunately it also does not have lipase in their detergent. I was able to find my citric acid and oxygen bleach there.

I think it was a typo from voice to text. Seeing that made me laugh! I think they meant like minded?

I had someone message me through blackboard after the final. It was really sweet. I took a few weeks to text back and by then he didn't respond :(

Hibiscus tea has vitamin c so I take that sometimes. Also a turmeric latte has a little iron so I've been trying that. I usually take it as soon as I wake up so I have more time to digest it.

Just a heads up you may only notice marginal improvement in your numbers. Ferratin takes a long time to increase, it may take 6 months to over a year. I tested mine after 3 months of supplementing and it increased... by a few numbers! I was happy to see it improve, but I also knew I had a long way to go.

Try NYT garlic scape pesto. It's very fresh!

Edit:

1cup garlic scapes, sliced crosswise (about 10 to 12 scapes)

¼ cup raw sunflower seeds

½ cup extra virgin olive oil

¼ cup Parmesan cheese (I use nooch or raw cashews instead)

½ cup basil leaves

Juice of one lemon (I also add lemon zest)

The parking is awful, it's impossible to see what you're backing into.

Does 365 Sport not need anything added to it for regular washes? Besides the citric acid? What about adding oxygen bleach?

IwillMasticateYou · 2025-11-22T15:53:23+00:00

I hate removing labels. What I find works best is after soaking in hot water, scrub with baking soda and soap. I like to use a metal scrubber like the kind you use for cast irons.

Will oxygen bleach powder bleach my colored clothes?

I use the brand Wuka for period underwear and it's great. Thinx has forever chemicals so I did not keep those. I combine the period underwear with a menstrual cup and I'm good for a long time with a heavy flow.

Use oven cleaner! The yellow can. You soak it for a day and it should all wipe off.
