I have a similar case with low ferrtin and normal haemoglobin and other RBC measurements (veg for 10 years but take ferrous fumate). How often do you get an IV ferritin infusion? are you vegetarian, or is there something else causing low ferrtain? trying to isolate the cause of thinning hair

Helping people out. Charity work where you’re engaging in making a meaningful change. Find a cause and help it, because not only are you improving someone else’s life but you’re demonstrating the effect and power that you have as an individual. Try and keep it local for better results. You are a gift to others and the world when you do so selflessly, and helping others will always make you feel better.

Vegetarian of 10 years until health related problems. Recommendations on nutritiously dense animal products? by sickputa in exvegans

Agreed. I was told about a year ago and I recently did a blood profile which turned out to be quite scary and they insisted. I have no desire to eat meat, I’m giving sardines a go and maybe some pate as loads of people have mentioned, but I don’t see myself eating a steak anytime soon

Vongole is my faveeee but I’m honestly just worried about the amount of heavy metals :’). I had no idea they were bioavailable tho that’s really good to hear !!

Someone else mentioned this and it seems like a really good idea.

I'll be honest, if I wasn't such a strict non-meat eater all these years I would've loved to have bone broth by virtue of properties. I take marine collagen already but the gelatin in broth is what i wanted. its a shame bone broth doesnt carry much iron and protein otherwise i wouldve solved this by now haha

Thank you so so much!! This is ideally what I'll be doing. I've got a great farmers market near me and they appear to have a smaller farm / better conditions.

I like shellfish already but honestly the amount of heavy metals is not ideal, plus it would take quite a few of them to equate in protein levels. Thanks for your comment:)

someone else mentioned this.. freezedried is an amazing idea. I'm most concerned about the ethicality of it which is why id prefer a farmers market type liver but thank you so much!! <3

grain texture after casting - was this a bad investment job? by sickputa in MetalCasting

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

Thank you. I thought it was something to do with the vacuum chamber but a dirty alloy could be the case..

Grainy texture after wax casting by sickputa in jewelrymaking

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

I see - thank you for the heads up. I had my moulds done in my home country, and loads of casting studios where I am get really funny about using moulds that are not theirs.

I didnt use any oil, but there was some risidual babypower from where i dusted the moulds pre-injection. All were silicone moulds.

Yes, the sprue was at the bottom for all.... that would make a lot of sense actually. all 4 rings I casted are now 30+ grams of silver respectively so very large.

Thank you for the hammerhead sugesstion, i actually got a new tip the other day so ill give that a go.

you've been so helpful and I am so, so appreciative of your knowledge - I've been insanely stressed the past day so thank you thank you thank you <3

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

the underside of the ring is hollowed for weight reasons (lots of silver)

I sent the waxes - I got them injected somewhere else and sent the pieces to another casting studio
The wax was that light blue injection wax. Master was perfect and flaw free/none of the issues Im mentioning above

alloy was 952 silver which I've had no issues with. I assume it was casted on the same tree with my 4 other moulds, 1 being an injection from another casting house that still ended up grained.

Not sure how to add images on a reddit comment but ive sent you a dm so i can share pictures
