PROTEIN FOODS Locations

hi. i have a bottle of Bertolli White Wine Vinegar that I last used \~ 1 year ago. It has been stored in a cabinet away from light, but has turned brown?? nothing in it (no chunks or floating things), but i’m not sure if it is still safe. everything i’ve read said its just oxidized and is still safe, but i just wanted to check and see here? expiration date says december of 2026, but not sure if that is accurate based on when it was used last.

(Maybe this isn’t the right flair but after an inconclusive vet visit I think this maybe psychosomatic!) I’m in the US. My cat’s 4 years old. Adopted and spayed. She’s been super healthy and cuddly all these years. On a raw chicken diet with gizzards and hearts and liver supplements. But a couple of weeks ago, she became totally different after witnessing my other cat got caught in a paper bag. We got the other cat out of the bag within seconds, but this cat was spooked regardless. She started hissing at the cat and was constantly on a defense. We thought they’d work it out. But soon we realized they weren’t gonna work it out. They kept fighting. On Sat night, I noticed s...

I am normal weight + skinny-fat build. My flabby fats are usually found in my tummy area, arms and back. I am on a calorie deficit + strength training. I want to build muscle but I can't reach my daily protein intake so now I want to supplement it with protein powder. I don't want to have a masculine build tho, so I am afraid to try protein shakes because I heard that if I drink them, I will be jacked as ****. What's the best protein powder for a girl who wants to build muscle but maintain a feminine physique?

I’m Dr. Georgios Ioannou, Anti-Aging Scientist, and I’ve seen enough of the biology to say this: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is one of the most interesting tools we have for nudging the body back toward youthful repair. When you sit in a properly run HBOT chamber, tissues get more oxygen than they normally do. That sounds simple, but oxygen is the fuel for so many repair systems. It helps wounds close faster, it feeds regenerating cells, and it changes signals inside cells that control growth and healing. In the right hands, that extra oxygen becomes a powerful stimulus for renewal. What makes HBOT stand out is not just short‑term healing. In human studies we’ve seen striking changes ...

Hey, This post is a follow up to the one I made around 60 days ago. I've started using Panoxyl 4% Benzoyl Peroxide on my back and shoulders about a month ago and i paired it with a Cetaphil Moisturiser for dry to very dry skin. My routine: Once i am having a shower in the evening, and have wet my back and everything, i apply the cleanser on my back and shoulders, massage for around 30 seconds and then leave it on my skin for \~ 3mins before washing it off, drying myself and then applying the moisturiser. I have also invested in an african jet sponge which i use daily whilst having a shower. As to overall hygiene: \-I have started taking a shower not more than an hour after finish...

I am looking for a new vet that is not only closer to where I live in College Hill/Friendly St area, but that is also tolerant of non-mainstream brands of pet food as long as they are nutritionally sound. My current vet office has competent vets, but they’re all older and more traditional, and only recommend 3 brands of food that are all owned by pretty hideous parent companies (i.e. Nestle and Purina). They refer to anything not from the grocery store or PetSmart as “boutique foods” and sometimes assume I’m a ***** that doesn’t read labels or understand them. I’d like a bit more flexibility in the treatment of my aging cats while still mostly staying in the realm of standard v...

Hello! I am researching before adopting a bonded pair of cats in a few months. I don't have specific cats in mind, but I want to make sure I can portion food so that they are getting the right amount of calories. I have no knowledge of the best brands of food yet; I just know I have heard wet food is best as cats do not drink enough water typically. I'm noticing there are no refrigerated automatic feeders that differentiate between cats on the market. Does anyone have methods that have worked for them? Maybe kibble automatic microchip feeders as primary nutrition and an automatic feeder for bonus wet food that the cats can have in addition?

currently undergoing rTMS and I'm wondering if there are ways to potentially enhance or support its effects. Maybe are there any foods, supplements, or lifestyle interventions that may support neuroplasticity during rTMS treatment? Things like omega-3s, magnesium, creatine, psylocibin, sleep optimization, exercise timing, etc. - has anyone seen data or had personal experience with these? After sessions, I often experience Brain fog and Headache. I do take enough water ,omega3 and some nuts after a session, but as soon as I hit the couch I fall asleep, and feeling like hangover/feverish I'm curious whether there are strategies to reduce these side effects or better support reco...

Hello everyone, I have been doing my own research and I want to come up with a long term fasting plan. I did a 4 day fast in December (largely to target my chronic fatigue syndrome, which has since resolved). I am currently in day 1 of a 7 day fast (which my aim here is for it to help heal an injury, I can get into the deets of that if you’re curious. Basically trying to get stem cells to repair stuff.). For long term health, I want to think about the frequency and duration of fasting. Just to note—I do *not* want to lose weight, so that is not any aspect of my goals here. I was thinking about doing something like a 5 day fast once a year. Some things I’m trying to address-- I’ve ha...

Hi all, I’ve been lurking for a while and get so inspired by the delicious looking food arranged perfectly in containers for the week ahead. I am yet to prep my meals to this extent and would like to start. But something is holding me back from doing it myself and it’s this: I can only imagine by Thursday or Friday, those beautifully prepped meals are somewhat less… beautiful? So I’m asking, how do you the meals you prep compare on the first day, compared to the final day of the week? What changes in terms of look, smell, and taste? Any suggestions for a sweet-spot in terms of convenience/appeal of the food? Eg. Is day 3 or 4 the last day the meals are properly appealing, and you jus...

Actually, I joined this subreddit a few years back when my mother (who was an alcoholic) decided to stop managing her symptoms. I came here looking for diet help and tips on how to handle everything. **Fast forward nearly 10 years:** I’m 30 years old, weighing 159kg (around 350 lbs). I spent almost an entire year drinking 2L of Coke a day, on top of a diet heavy on fried food, pasta, and desserts. At the start of this year, I decided it was time for a change. I cut out soda and noticed I was drinking a lot of water. And urinating a lot... and then there was that famous fruity taste in my mouth. I went for blood and urine tests for a checkup. Before the results even came back (they were d...

Hi everyone. I have a kitty who was recently (new years eve) diagnosed with FIC. She is 5 years old in April. Shes had behaviors of peeing outside the litter box on and off for 2 years. It started after my 7th move in 5years (5th move with her) into a house with a dog that I believe barked constantly when no human was home. It caused me to move back home with my parents and commute. We’ve been living at my parents for 2 years this June. I always attributed it to her stress from having many moves, but my other cat is as chill as can be. Her episodes occurred every few months when I would be gone for more than 3 days. From the end of December 2025 up until now, we have had maybe a ...

I’m of geriatric age for pregnancy, G3P0, so my doctor has indicated I’m high risk. I can’t get in for my first ultrasound until I’m in my second trimester which is, of course, stressing me out given the history. Is it normal to be this absolutely exhausted? It hit me like a ton of bricks once I hit the 6 week mark and I’m nervous for when I return to work after this set of days off. I work 12 hour shifts. I’m awake for 3-4 hours before I need a 5 hour nap. When I’m awake I have absolutely zero energy, I’m a blob just trying to stay awake. Because I’m so tired, I haven’t been eating much and the nausea is hitting hard as well. I eat when I’m awake but mostly all I ca...

Hi everyone! Researchers at San Diego State University are currently recruiting postmenopausal women (at least 1 year postmenopausal) for a 24-month bone health study.

I'm 5'9", 125 lbs, and definitively "skinny-fat"—very thin limbs but carrying noticeable visceral fat/gut. I've started a resistance training program (mainly calisthenics) and I'm prioritizing protein, but I struggle with "skinny-fat" psychology—I'm afraid of getting a bigger gut by bulking, but I know I need muscle. My biggest hurdle is that I'm out of the house often and have to rely on fast food/fast-casual 3-4 times a week. What are some places that y'all have discovered that offer decent quality foods at affordable prices? Any other tips n tricks would be appreciated :)

Hey all, I am currently training to run across the entire coast of Croatia (827km) in 10 days. I will be starting on August 17th of this year. I am doing this run to raise awanress for CJD, a disease that sent ripples through my family when it took the life of my Grandfather. You can follow the journey at the link in the post. I am reaching out here as I have never completed a multi-day ultra like this and working through all the logistics I would need to consider. Currently this is my list of things but would like to know if you think I am missing anything: \- Crew (Currently a friend, my wife and potentially one of my siblings) \- Transport (Currently considering one car, and po...
