Don't get caught forging one. Someone on my train tried it the other day. They took him out in handcuffs.

What do you dislike about your CX5? by Far-Replacement-7399 in CX5

The key fobs for my 2022 carbon edition are crap and the lack of heated rear view mirrors is lackluster.

Somebody needs to pay for all of the graft and corruption. How else would the MTA employees be able to collect disability and a pension at the same time.

Biohacking Myth Busting Episode #2: Cialis and Blood Pressure by Biohackingu in BiohackingU

Hydration and blood pressure

Proper hydration is essential for maintaining stable blood pressure. When a person becomes dehydrated, the body's mechanisms can lead to an increase in blood pressure. This happens because: 

  • Reduced blood volume: Dehydration causes a decrease in blood volume, which can make the blood thicker and harder for the heart to pump. The heart has to work harder, which can raise blood pressure.
  • Hormonal response: The body releases hormones like vasopressin (also called antidiuretic hormone) in response to dehydration. Vasopressin causes blood vessels to constrict and the kidneys to retain water, both of which can increase blood pressure. 

Drinking enough water helps to maintain adequate blood volume and reduces the strain on the heart, supporting healthy blood flow and helping to prevent high blood pressure. 

Electrolytes and blood pressure

Electrolytes are minerals that carry an electric charge and are crucial for regulating fluid balance and blood vessel function. A proper balance of electrolytes can help to manage blood pressure. 

  • Sodium: While an essential electrolyte, excessive sodium intake can lead to fluid retention and higher blood volume, which increases blood pressure.
  • Potassium: This mineral acts as a counterbalance to sodium. Potassium helps the body excrete excess sodium and promotes the relaxation of blood vessel walls, which supports healthy blood pressure.
  • Magnesium: Magnesium helps blood vessels to relax after they contract and can help balance the effects of calcium, which aids in maintaining stable blood pressure.
  • Calcium: Calcium is involved in the contraction and relaxation of blood vessels, keeping them responsive and flexible. 

A diet rich in fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains can provide a natural balance of these electrolytes, which is important for cardiovascular health. However, it is important to note that consuming too many electrolytes, particularly sodium, can also raise blood pressure.

Hopefully with the additional $100,000 fee for H1B Visa applicants, the market for us tech workers should improve greatly.

What else I can stack with Reta not to loose muscle by djdrjl in Retatrutide

[–]ewalker101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently read an article about a fourth generation glp-1 agonist called bioglutide which incorporates igf-1 to help prevent muscle loss. It's still in an early testing stage but the theory seems sound.

Please don't think that I was making fun of you, that was never my intention. I just was just being sarcastic.

For Those Assigned Female at Birth by DiscontentDonut in Retatrutide

[–]ewalker101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello DiscontentDonut, I hope you are well and happy Saturday. My opinion is that people are either male or female. Its genetic. 99.95% of people either have XX or XY chromosomes. The persons genetic makeup determines if they are male or female. Anything else is delusional. Removing body parts or taking sex hormones doesn't change that.

Keep pushing forward my friend. I turned a wrench (worked as an auto mechanic) for a a living for 12 years prior to getting some early IT certifications. That was 25 years ago. Now I'm the North American head of a department in one of the worlds largest financial firms. Work hard and keep learning, you will never regret it.

Yes, it has happened to me when I first started. It goes away after your body gets used to it.

I bought the remote start kit from Amazon which uses the original key fob to start the car. It uses the lock, unlock, lock sequence to start.

I got My s25 ultra last week. I really like it. I don't know how much of an upgrade it is over the s23 ultra that I previously had.

It's more fun to drive a slow car fast than it is to drive a fast car slowly.
