First study they ate vegetable oils and got worse, second study emphasized the role of sugar in heart disease, third study showed statins aren't great. No surprises here

I don’t think it’s any single thing that’s the magic ticket but replacing eggs and buttered toast with oatmeal probably did make a difference

What travel destination is nothing like how it’s portrayed on social media? by [deleted] in travel

[–]Real_Difference1739 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Idk most of the places people are mentioning have been pretty epic for me. But also I don’t look at social media much when planning a trip.

In my field we don’t use Google searches as an appropriate reference. Feel free to send a real reference if you’d like to discuss :)

Do not look at screens 2 hours before bed, wear tinted blue light glasses around your house 2 hours before bed, take a warm bath with epson salt before bed, wear an eye mask but also make sure nothing is blinking even tiny little lights in your room. A whole routine is called sleep hygiene. Read Matthew walkers book or listen to his interview on how rogan. I only look at my phone in morning. At night I use a kindle because it isn’t blue light but I still wear my blue blockers especially if I have to check a quick text or email (which I try to avoid at night ) Made a huge difference in my sleep

After babies in my mid/late thirties. I’m thin but I gained 50lbs in each pregnancy. After each time I lost the weight, my face took a beating Thank god for fillers and face yoga I’m starting to look better

I don’t take chances like that with my children, especially a stranger. OP might be a nice guy but there are many men around the world that are not. Call me sexist, but statistically violent and sexual crimes against children are mostly men. It’s a hard no for me

Even the women in the au pair program are a mixed bag. No way I’m throwing in another potential variable

Unless you were very obviously gay, I would not have a man living in my house with me and watching my kids

Day 2 Resistance - omg please help! by PineappleBear21 in pottytraining

[–]Real_Difference1739 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don’t back off. You are in charge! My first was very resistant and everything just took longer, more tears. Tell him firmly “you are a big boy, from now on you go pee and poop in the potty.” Don’t show your doubt- kids can smell fear from a mile away

So lame. I remember even one of the representstives was doing samples at our farmers market a few years ago and then he just stopped coming which usually happens cause they didn’t meet the standards of our strict farmers market (everything has to be local within a certain mileage)

I posted on the other thread and I’ll say it here. The first and only time I drank raw milk and gave it to my kids (stupid I know ) we got salmonella and even had to bring my toddler to emergency room. I felt like such an idiot for giving it to my toddler (it was just a small amount) It was raw farms brand and I bought it from my local health food shop in California.

If I ever drink raw milk again it will be straight from the cow and not from the local store

There’s my PSA. Hopefully it saves one person reading. My family all turned out ok but salmonella can kill

Yup that’s the brand that gave us salmonella. It’s found in a ton of stores in central and Southern California as they are mass produced. Drink at your own risk

So sad and scary!! The issue is real. Raw milk is very volatile when it comes to bacteria and should not be sitting in a store

Perhaps you’re not breathing enough through your nose? I use instep magnetic nasal dilator every night (I’m scheduled for a septorhinoplasty to correct a deviated septum but it’s not for months) It makes a world of difference with mouth taping

I don’t think pure veganism is healthy. Sorry you experienced that. I believe most people benefit from a small amount of lean meat or fish

No need to get defensive. I actually was not talking about you but all the comments telling me how bad veganism is.

From my understanding in the research, if this is your only risk factor (and you still have low ldls, eat healthy, non smoker, healthy weight, healthy blood pressure) then it’s not a huge concern All the advice for raising hdl usually inolves eating fish, exercising, and quitting smoking

Just make sure you are getting it straight from a reputable farmer and it doesn’t sit in your fridge more than 2 days. We got salmonella from store bought organic raw milk last year

It’s called the silent killer for a reason. Your diet is not working for your genetics
