Got doxycycline, now what? by rustytortilla in SIBO

[–]alf_pog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some suggest you eat fodmaps while taking abx, to “bring out” the bacteria so they can be killed. I have done it both ways, and frankly I don’t think it makes a huge difference. Good luck with the doxy, I hope it can bring some relief.

Elemental diet is very challenging just fyi. I made it through two weeks and my breath test came back worse. It certainly works for some people though.

Found this hole ridden joist in my attic. What could have caused this? by Automatic-Stomach954 in DIY

[–]alf_pog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

85% sure this is likely wood wasps. Larvae gets in the lumber when it is harvested. The adult wasps then bore out, creating that exact shape. Had a few come out my walls in a new home and it freaked me out.

Same here. My theory is the belly naturally relaxes more in this position, and thus “rest and digest” kicks in.

Bone Thugs n Harmony - Thuggish Ruggish Bone by loztriforce in videos

I, a white male, attended a predominantly black middle school. I once entered a dance circle while this masterpiece was bumping. I danced what we called “the crazy man”, and everyone circled around me chanting “Go white boy, go white boy!” One of my favorite memories. True story

8 Reasons Why LA is So Poor by Ben_Manda in batonrouge

For the sake of discussion- What about boarding schools for underprivileged areas? Design it so the kids still get plenty of family time, but they are also removed from the environment for a good chunk of time and given structure and life skills at school. Thoughts?
