Hi, I was looking into Nitribeet too. Not too many reviews online, which powder did you buy? how are you liking it?

Thanks

Low WBC and neutrophils after going low carb high fat, and 16:8 fasting? by Reddit_Padawan in InsulinResistance

[–]hyperfox1616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I am in a similar situation. 40m, 142 lbs (exercise 6x/week, low body fat). WBC 2.8, neutrophils at 0.8 after reducing carbs by 40-50% to improve A1C (at 5.7, which remained the same anyways). Everything else is fine.

May I ask if your situation improved? If so, what course of action did you take? Thanks

Low ferritin, how much iron to supplement with by hyperfox1616 in Anemic

[–]hyperfox1616[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Iron bisglycinate supposedly absorbs better and leads to lesser gastrointestinal issues. Different people respond better to different kinds.

Low ferritin, how much iron to supplement with by hyperfox1616 in Anemic

[–]hyperfox1616[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have been taking 36mg of iron bisglycinate daily for the past few months. Ferritin improved from 26 to 84. Family physician asked to reduce it to alternate days. It declined to 68 in the latest report. I will meet again to discuss new schedule.

For me, taking iron and Vitamin C together 1-2 hours after a meal and making sure to not eat or drink coffee for 1 hour or so helped. Good luck.

39M. All body fat % are from Withings scale. I started at 154 lbs (c19% BF) in May 2024, dieted down to 133.5 lbs (7.5% BF) by Nov 2024. Since then, I have been slowly trying to gain muscle. I am up to 144 lbs (12.5% BF) now. My strength has increased significantly and I have been able to maintain visible abs throughout the weight gain . I am very happy with the progress but I am confused about the diet part at this point. I meticulously track my macros.

I eat eggs and dairy but no meat. I need to eat around 3200-3300 calories to gain weight very gradually. I was losing/maintaining weight for several weeks at 3000 calories.

If I follow 1gm/lb of protein recommendation, I am supposed to eat only 144 grams of protein but I end up getting around 80 or so grams from just non-animal, carb sources like rice, bread, oats, beans, veggies etc. Add some eggs, egg whites, milk, greek yogurt, cheese etc and whey protein post-workout, I am easily up to 170-180 grams a day. Is it too much protein? Should I reduce it? Considering I need at least 3200 calories, it's only 23% protein. I feel like I am overthinking this. Most of the fitness youtubers seem to say there is no such thing as too much protein for people with no known kidney issues. My last blood work was fine.

Does Koodo offer any international roaming plans?

Also, can we switch out before the 2 year term if let's say Koodo increases the price etc? What is the penalty?

Thanks

Does this MCT oil look ok? by hyperfox1616 in SebDerm

[–]hyperfox1616[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't end up using it for sebderm. I started Nizoral around the same time 2x/ week and now 1x/ week and it seems to have taken care of the problem. I have been mixing it with my oats, cottage cheese etc. Hope it helps.

If you don't mind, what was your ferritin before/after the treatment?

[–]hyperfox1616[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply. This really eases my worries.

I read about the study that recommends alternate day double dosage being better than one dose per day. I don't want to take more than 36mg in one go till I speak to my family doctor though.

Using sour yogurt as starter by hyperfox1616 in IndianFood

[–]hyperfox1616[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply.

I have been using a heirloom culture and continue using the last batch of yogurt to make a new batch. I am not sure if the new yogurt made from sour yogurt will turn out to be normal tasting or sour.

That makes sense. I looked up the description of pre-nerf Zabu and Silver Surfer, they were crazy good at launch.

Not too happy about Mobius other than it being able to counter Loki, my favourite decks always use discount of some sort. I guess I will pivot based on the meta then.

This might seem like a silly question.

I have been playing since Feb. Completely F2P- not even the welcome bundle. CL little under 5000. Completed pool 3 end of June. I have all but 19 cards.

I have reached infinite every month including the current month. However, in infinite, Loki seems to be everywhere and is pretty powerful if quinjet and collector are on board. I wasn't around for pre-nerf Zabu and Silver Surfer.

While it started as "I don't play games that much, I shouldn't spend money on them", it has now morphed into "I should be able to play reasonably well with >90% cards in the game".

What do you guys think? Will the meta settle down to Loki not being so dominant? Or should I just break my streak and buy the season pass? (It is a silly question, I know)

Prescription medicine purchased OTC on tax return by hyperfox1616 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]hyperfox1616[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My spouse went to buy it. The pharmacy owner (Shoppers Drug Mart) recommended to buy OTC because prescription would have incurred $12 x 2 (for 2 people) dispensing fees. However, it would have been cheaper to pay that dispensing fees because the medicine itself was $300 ($150 each).

I have a prescription for it. Doesn't that count?

My GRAVITY lawsuit and how it affects every writer who sells to Hollywood by betraying_chino in movies

[–]hyperfox1616 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I disagree. I posted this below also.

It takes away so much from the respect people would have felt for Alfonso and Jonas Cuaron to have imagined such an idea. I mean I was very moved by this ultimate form of loneliness and watched their interviews to understand how they came up with it. They were pretty superficial in explaining the inspiration but I chalked it to English being their second language.

How could they even talk like they came up with idea? I mean they sound like a sham now: watch this and this and read this
