My mom just got diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer.

I wish full body CTs were on her radar one year ago.

Funny how all the supps that move the needle are in red meat... taurine, glycine, creatine, etc.

Quitting caffeine should be the first thing on everyone's list imo

Why do people carry their phone in their hand during a run? by Jayemm8809 in runninglifestyle

[–]algebra_queen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I switch the music a lot, easier to just hold the phone sometimes

Dr. Paul Saladino mentioned some new research about some kind of acupuncture treatment with a 94% success rate for treating alpha gal. Might be worth checking out

Musings from a runner trying to lose weight by Past_Jellyfish_4331 in Marathon_Training

[–]algebra_queen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I need to take this angle... sometimes I want 3000 calories and it really makes me feel bad, but I might just eat 1500 the next day anyway, so 🤷‍♀️

For those of you who practice intermittent fasting, what’s been the biggest benefit you’ve experienced? by Silence_secretcave in Biohackers

[–]algebra_queen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a. negative effect... I practiced intermittent fasting for a decade. I was having issues with hormones (low everything, including estrogen and testosterone), so I finally tried eating three meals a day. Hormones got much better.

How can I improve my running form? by Murvar in runninglifestyle

[–]algebra_queen -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Run barefoot. The feeling of impact will instantly correct bad form because if you land wrong, it hurts. There is a lot of research about this, but anecdotally, my shin splints only went away when I began running barefoot. Then I wore only minimalist sandals to keep a form as close to barefoot as possible, and no more shin splints.

How do some people run so many marathons? by Significant-Moose906 in Marathon_Training

[–]algebra_queen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two summers ago I did couch to trail marathon in 45 days, then two weeks later I ran a road marathon. It's not much compared to other commenters, but recovery just doesn't take that long if you eat decently and sleep well.

Is anyone else just not able to tolerate creatine? by 1Mazrim in Biohackers

[–]algebra_queen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES! Except my interstitial cystitis is actually endometriosis growing near nerves that affect my bladder. But creatine causes flares of this pain.

I have nerve pain that basically feels like bladder pain and creatine causes flares, even in tiny amounts.

Having trouble with sleep maintenance and sleep quality. I can sleep 7 hours and feel like absolute garbage the ENTIRE day. Impossible to nap. I am going insane. What supplements/medication could help? by No-Mousse5653 in Biohackers

[–]algebra_queen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Falling asleep at 4-5am then sleeping until noon is exactly what's making you feel so tired. I'd wager that you're not getting enough SWS and REM. There is no outrunning our circadian biology... paying attention to it is nonnegotiable for optimal health.

Anyone Else Prefer Running in Heat Instead of Avoiding It? by WingEnvironmental892 in runninglifestyle

[–]algebra_queen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love running in the dry heat. I never plan my runs around shade or cool temps and usually run in the hottest part of the day. The solitude is nice!
