Blood vessel health in Health ·
The whole point here is to stop—or at least slow down—the buildup in your arteries. There are a ton of factors that contribute to this kind of gunking up, which eventually chokes off blood flow, leading to high blood pressure, heart issues, and potentially a stroke or heart attack down the line.
We’re talking about greasy, heavily seasoned junk food, high cholesterol, sitting on the couch too much, stress, smoking...
I can't think of anything else right now...
Taking some Omega-3 fatty acids helps restore that balance and keeps plaque from building up.
As for cardio, just hitting the stairs at a brisk pace works wonders.
If you live on the fifth floor and make it a habit to take the stairs instead of the elevator every single day, you're already ahead of the game.
Dealing with hemorrhoids in Health ·
I’ve actually been clean from them for about a year now—fixed my diet, switched to cereal in the morning, staying away from spicy food, and making sure I get things moving every morning after a big cup of coffee.
Quitting caffeine: How's it going? in Health ·
Coffee isn't actually bad for you—not unless you’re treating it like a competitive sport. One cup a day is fine, maybe two if you've had a rough morning...
My sister-in-law, on the other hand, drinks it like it’s tap water..
Quitting caffeine: How's it going? in Health ·
a, it makes sense—caffeine is a neuromuscular stimulant, which basically means it creates a mild dependency. If you just quit cold turkey, you're going to deal with zero focus and feel like a zombie all day..
you really shouldn't just stop abruptly—it’s better to taper off, maybe drop down to one cup a day, then switch to something weaker or decaf, and so on. Don't go making things harder on yourself by quitting all at once..
Can't sleep in Health ·
Fix your lifestyle—you’ve gotten way too lax, and clearly, your brain is feeling the consequences. Get back to a normal routine; what’s with this whole staying up until 2:00 or 3:00 AM thing?
Keep yourself busy during the day—find something productive to do so you actually wear out both your body and your mind.
Try hitting the sack before midnight and aim to wake up around 7:00 or 8:00 AM.
Common Cold in Health ·
Vitamin C plus zinc, a good multivitamin, some DayQuil, maybe some warm chicken soup, tea...
Even if you just want to ride out this last stretch of feeling like garbage—though if you actually want to make things a little easier on yourself...
This really sucks in Health ·
There's a massive thread on Hemorrhoids Down Under if you want to go deep... just scroll through it.👍
Dream Lentils in Health ·
Does anyone have experience with the Ciba Vision Air Optix Day & Night lenses?
Can I take Praxiten and Sanval together? in Psychology ·
Directly from the instruction manual:

"Sanval may exacerbate certain health issues. If you have a history of depression, please consult your doctor before starting Sanval.
Due to the risk of suicidal ideation, medical professionals and/or family members should closely monitor patients struggling with depression."


Watch out if you're dealing with depression!
Can I take Praxiten and Sanval together? in Psychology ·
xanax 1 mg prescription rules..
Honestly, Sanval just leaves me feeling totally restless at night—and then I'm stuck with all this paranoia and depression during the day. Not my favorite...
Plus, it’s literally listed right there in the side effects..
Tinnitus and xanax 0.5-1 mg..🙂
Stomach flu? in Health ·
Feeling a lot better today—fever's gone and my stomach isn't killing me anymore..
It doesn't happen to me all that often, but if you’re dealing with this stuff on a regular loop every two or three months, there might be some stubborn bacteria nesting itself in your stomach lining or something similar. A buddy of mine has been battling H. pylori for a year now, and man, his stomach gives him constant grief..
Stomach flu? in Health ·
So, it all kicked off yesterday—first the muscle aches, then a low-grade fever of about 99°F, followed by vomiting and stomach cramps. I haven't been able to keep anything down since yesterday morning, which isn't exactly a fun way to spend a day...
Things are looking slightly better today; I managed some dry toast and tea, though that 99°F fever is still hanging around.
Any idea what I'm in for?
Should I expect to turn a corner in a couple of days?
Headaches caused by back pain? in Health ·
Go see a doctor and maybe a physical therapist... honestly, what have you got to lose?
I deal with constant neck and back pain myself—usually because I'm hunched over like a gargoyle or just sitting at my desk for way too long...
Changes in semen appearance in Health ·
Of course you’re going to see a doctor—no matter what happens, you aren't just giving up on having a kid..
I mean, there's always IVF...
Hypochondriac or just being careful? in Health ·
Weakened immune systems—the ones that aren't exactly built like tanks—tend to catch all sorts of things. It’s not exactly rocket science...
Before we had all this modern diagnostic tech, most people just wrote these cases off as hypochondria...
Exactly. If you’ve been handed a diagnosis, it’s real—even if it helps to get a second opinion. I mean, personally, one doctor told me I just had some minor inflammation, while another insisted I had serious joint damage...
It’s definitely not all in your head.
Changes in semen appearance in Health ·
It’s definitely some kind of infection—you should probably get that checked out ASAP so you can actually start treatment...
Earplugs in Health ·
So, earplugs are basically the go-to at the pharmacy...
I mean, specifically for blocking out noise—my neighbor's dog won't stop barking in the middle of the night, and it's waking me up constantly. I actually tried stuffing cotton balls in my ears once, but that was a disaster; I just woke up with a massive headache...
Are we talking the foam ones?
Dealing with hemorrhoids in Health ·
Look, if the stuff from your local drugstore and some DIY home remedies aren't cutting it—just go see a proctologist. I know, I know, it’s awkward as hell, but seriously...
Freezing temperatures in Health ·
I’m basically a human popsicle too...
Back when my grandparents were still around, my mom used to constantly nag my dad about his wardrobe—like, "Seriously? You only own three sweaters and two pairs of pants?"
And honestly, I’ve inherited that exact same problem...
I’m always freezing. During the winter, I’m basically living in layers. I have to sleep in thick socks, heavy pajamas, and a sweater just to survive—if the thermostat drops below 68°F, I’m officially turning into an ice cube.
Maybe it’s just in my DNA—who knows?
