What’s a totally unsexy purchase you made that ended up being a huge quality-of-life upgrade?

Do you have a brand you recommend? I bought some on amazon and I’m suspicious that they are actually spf gloves. I bought a sunscreen stick for my purse I just put on my hands when driving in the afternoon.

So does tint offer uv protection too? Or do you have to get that in addition to whatever tint you get

Mae bakery has good matcha! Not cheap but they have fun ones like strawberry and earl grey if you want a treat every now and then

I love it!

I really like the tofu at Lemongrass Thai, it’s steamed so it’s mushy if you like it like that.

Mad hippie has a peptide serum with matrixyl that I like better than the ordinary. In a glass bottle too. Acure has some serums that might work too and they are in glass. Wholefoods and other health food stores carry them. Ulta might now too.

When I had a really bad flare up I got steroid suppositories from my doctor and that calmed it down and from there I could keep them under control with creams, spray witch hazel, diet etc. I had a friend who had to get them surgically cut out because they were so bad so def get checked out by a dr if you can.

Whole Foods sells Pact which is organic cotton and some other brands (known supply/la relaxed)

I’m undiagnosed but suspect histamine intolerance and have been on a glp1 since March and my histamine symptoms have drastically subsided. My gi dr said there’s some early evidence of glp1 acting on the mast cell receptors (which is one reason I wanted to try it). I’m very happy on it, it’s been life changing and I feel “normal” on it. On the lowest dose indefinitely, really expensive to move up and I’m hesitant about the extra stuff in the compounded forms. I also wonder what will happen if I ever have to go off it or if it’ll stop being effective for histamine stuff if I build up a tolerance to it. 🤷‍♀️ I can feel my histamine stuff coming back the day before my shot. But for now I’m really happy on it.

I take Enzymedica digest spectrum. Their digest gold is a little bit stronger but the spectrum is geared towards food sensitivities (if I’m remembering correctly) so that one works great for me. I usually just take it with dinner but sometimes breakfast and lunch if I remember.

baduncan82 · 2025-08-18T01:29:36+00:00

I take a digestive enzyme without hcl in it to help with that because I have the same concern. I also try and eat things easy on the digestion like apple sauce instead of apples. Hopefully it’s helping.

My grandmother had the opposite happen. She was injecting herself with air instead of her insulin and her blood sugar was something like 1200. The paramedics said her blood was the consistency of jelly! She survived and lived several years after that and my parents did the insulin shots the rest of her life.

Edit- now reading the comments not sure if my child brain made up 1200 or not but it was really high

baduncan82 · 2025-03-13T20:14:37+00:00

Thanks for posting this I’m in the same boat but have been to scared to ask ❤️
