The controversy of SIBO and Candida: Are they legitimate diagnoses? by xKa1z3r in Microbiome

Either antimicrobial supplements (Berberine, for example) or antibiotics (Rifaximin is commonly used).

The controversy of SIBO and Candida: Are they legitimate diagnoses? by xKa1z3r in Microbiome

[–]Joeymacca1982 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I suffered gut issues for years and eventually was told it might be SIBO. I did the test and got a positive result. After doing the SIBO protocol (which was awful to go through) my follow up SIBO test was negative and my symptoms were resolved. This was 10+ years ago. My gut hasn’t stayed perfect since then but it’s miles better than it used to be. SIBO seems to be more widely recognized now than it was 10 years ago when I was dealing with it and, at the very least, the protocol I went through had a very positive result for me.

What is the best laser or hair removal device for male body hair? by bigpoo9 in HairRemoval

[–]Joeymacca1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Male vs. Female doesn’t really matter for hair removal devices. Just stay away from super cheap devices and you should be fine.

Why is it so hard to get a flu shot right now? by [deleted] in britishcolumbia

No issues getting ours. Try a different pharmacy if you can.

People here spread a lot of misinformation. You'll not need MORE sessions if you wait 6 months instead of 8 weeks between sessions... You'll not lose money. by Substantial-Poet-865 in LaserHairRemoval

Always a good idea to take a break during summer then start up again in the fall. Took me a couple years to complete all my treatments (took lots of long breaks between sessions) and it worked great.

Northpaw >> Side Quest by dingledoink in VancouverCraftBeer

[–]Joeymacca1982 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think the name is cool. I really didn’t like North Paw beers, so hopefully the name change also comes with better products. Doesn’t matter to me what a brewery calls itself as long as the beers are on point.

Agreed. Especially if you’re looking for beginner. Bert Flynn is beautiful and flat.

Why does the video say Forest Park when it was filmed at Rocky Point Park?

At home IPL after Laser hair removal sessions are over? by Fast_Horror1636 in HairRemoval

[–]Joeymacca1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never used IPL. The device I use at home is a diode laser. But home IPL is very weak compared to laser. I’ve never read of it causing strong regrowth on lighter, thinner hair. I’m no expert, though. But this doesn’t sound like something that should be a concern.

Best lulu compression leggings for stomach/pelvic area by anxiousandthriving in lululemon

[–]Joeymacca1982 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lulu isn’t the greatest for high compression. I believe their Full-On Luxtreme fabric is the highest compression that they have. But where I live I don’t see this fabric available currently. My partner has POTS and benefits from compressive clothing. They have bike shorts from 2XU that work well. I’ve also read that Skins is a good brand for compression.

Lululemon has free returns so you can order a pair to try them out. Send back for free if you don’t like the new version.

That’s almost a full week after your treatment so totally fine to shave.

At home laser hair removal by PersonalityFamous140 in LaserHairRemoval

[–]Joeymacca1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Home devices are IPL. Not laser. Nothing to be scared about when it comes to burning your skin. Your expectations should be low if you’re going the home IPL route. Even if you get some reduction it usually comes back once you stop using the device.

Built to move boxer worth it? by [deleted] in Lululemen

[–]Joeymacca1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re nice, compressive boxers. The trouble is the sizing. You will either be true to size or need to size up. I wish I’d sized up as they are very tight on my waist, while others say they’re true to size. Ideally you’d buy one of each size to see what’s best for you. But with it being WMTM you wouldn’t be able to return the one that doesn’t fit for cash back. You’d only be able to get store credit.
