PROTEIN FOODS Locations

So I am not fully healed. Honestly barely still in beginning stages of healing, finally not getting worst….. After seeing so many insanely detailed hyper specific diet and lifestyle plans I felt I could never keep up with despite making my whole life revolve around gastritis and trying and failing, I thought I’d never heal. While I think those things are so important and do heal people, it was something I just never seemed to be able to attain. The many expensive supplements, hyper specific eating times, strict portion controls. It all makes sense, again it just wasn’t something I was able to attain. Almost exclusively due to my income and an eating disorder (binge and restriction)...

This is a mini rant about food diaries and why they are hard to keep. In the past I would weigh and.mesdure what I could and then do a guesstimate. but I have been having trouble losing these last 20 lbs. so I have been told to weigh and measure everything. that's impossible... 1. If you go to a restaurant and they don't have their nutrition facts posted. 2. If you eat at someone else's home, and you have no idea how the food was made. 3. If you make homemade foods and then you have to measure everything you cook. (It's not a normal habit if mine I will do a general measurement and add more if it needs more.) Then you have to type the whole recipe in to a nutrition ca...

Built this raised bed from scratch and wanted to get some feedback from people who know more than me before I get too far into the season. Specs: \~4’ x 8’ x 2’ elevated bed (not ground contact) Wood frame with internal liner Trellis setup using wire grid for vertical growth Bottom layer is logs/cardboard, then partially composted food scraps, manure, and soil mix (kind of a hugelkultur approach) and also have red wrigglers in it too. Location: Central Florida What’s planted so far: Back row: strawberries (established and producing) Middle: broccoli + climbing beans (on trellis) Front: peppers, carrots, and some herbs Also testing cucumbers/melons along the trellis A coup...

My male Chihuahua (maybe pomchi) has calcium bladder stones yet again. He’s had surgery twice already, with the most recent being at the end of January. We did a checkup out of caution today and found three formed stones. Obviously we can’t confirm these are calcium stones, but since the last two surgeries were…seems a safe guess. He’s on Hills urinary c/d (have been giving him dry food in the morning to help with teeth, watered down wet food at night). He’s got heart problems (murmur and had what the cardiologists now suspect was an (atrial?) tear last summer as he had a very sudden onset coughing attack, responded well to meds and since weaned off of the diuretic). Because of t...

**Semaglutide: the molecule that turned GLP-1 into a household word** **TL;DR:** 31-amino-acid modified GLP-1 with a C18 fatty diacid linker that latches onto serum albumin and stretches a 1-2 minute native peptide into a 7-day weekly drug. Marketed as Ozempic (T2D), Wegovy (obesity), Rybelsus (oral T2D). The SELECT trial established cardiovascular benefit in non-diabetic obesity — that's the result that pushed it from "diabetes drug" to "category-defining weight-loss drug." **Quick facts** ·         **Aliases:** NN9535, Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus ·         **Origin:** Modified human GLP-1(7-37); two amino acid substitutions (Aib8, Arg34) plus ...

There are numerous revelations in this video. But the tragic irony is the root of the problem is the root of the solution. Malcolm Gladwell even pointed out 20 years ago how this started shaping cancer taxonomy. Except the "defense" hasn't met the challenge of the attack. There's still a massive failure of trying to apply "universal principles" over "horizontal segmentation". We are not unique. Our context is not unique. Human physiology is human physiology, just like taste buds. It doesn't mean we don't react differently. But if the health and nutrition sciences met the same problem with the same solution of "horizontal segmentation&q...

Struggling with my fiber intake haha idk if this counts as lower in calories I don’t workout due to surgery so my calories are bit on lower side one of my friend told my diet looks like body recomposition What’s your thoughts? Do I need to make changes?

I used to think slow cooker meals were foolproof. Throw things in. Walk away. Come back to dinner. Then I made slow cooker tomatillo chicken for the first time and realized I had been thinking about it completely wrong. Slow cooker cooking is not passive. It rewards the people who understand what is actually happening inside that pot and it quietly exposes everyone who does not. The difference shows up on the plate every single time. # A Green Sauce With a 3,000-Year Head Start Before this ...

This app is mediocre on its best days and whatever is worse than your worst nightmare on its bad days. It’s constantly down, it has no intelligence and its recipe creation is extremely flawed. Today I had cream of wheat for lunch and I store it in a jar I threw the box away, I type in cream of wheat in the search to input and NOTHING INVOLVING CREAM OF WHEAT COMES UP! Youre telling me I’m the first person on that app that ate cream of wheat?? Also why is some stuff in grams and some in oz, and hardly EVER in any kind of volume like cups or tablespoons. It feels like an app from the era when apps were first invented. The recipe input process is sooooo unintelligent and time consuming....

# The Manganese Tribe # Day One Newsletter # “Five Up, None Down” **A note from the founding council** Hey everyone. Welcome to the first ever Manganese Tribe newsletter. When this whole thing started, it was one person, one milk bottle, and a label that said 25%. Now there’s a bunch of us. That’s wild, and honestly kind of moving. Thanks for being here. We don’t really know what we’re doing yet. We just know we like manganese, and that turned out to be enough. **About the element, for anyone just joining** Manganese is element 25 on the periodic table. Symbol Mn. It’s a hard, brittle, silvery-gray metal that you almost never see in its pure form because it’s too u...

I broke my fast with bone broth and waited an hour then I ate zucchini with eggs and a piece of of chicken. Should I let myself eat later today? How should my meals look for the next few days? Also how frequently can I eat? Side note since I know people ask: this was not necessarily for weight loss, but I wanted to fix the way my body craves food. I did end up loosing ten pounds in these past few days. I lost some muscle but it’s not really noticeable and I know most of it bounces back either way. Also the only supplement I used were prenatals

# I found the "Bug" in my anger: How a DNA report helped me restore my executive logic. I’m a software engineer. For years, I struggled with a baseline state of being "livid." I felt like the environment around me—traffic, neighbors, minor inconveniences—was a series of personal attacks. I now recognize this as "Black-and-White Cortisol Thinking," where the brain loses the ability to process nuance and empathy. I finally applied a "Debug" mindset to my own biology using a Pharmacogenetic (PGx) DNA report, and I found a massive biochemical bottleneck that changed everything. ## The Hardware: A Missing Exit Port My DNA report confirmed that I am...

I'm struggling with hitting the nutrition goals set for me by MyNetDiary and the combined input of various websites. I'm roughly 4 months in and wasn't really out of shape to start. My goal is to build muscle, which I've been doing. Right now, I weigh 183 and am 5'-9". To maintain, I need roughly 3000 Calories and 224g of protein a day (according to the app), plus extra after I input my exercise. I just cannot seem to eat that much without being miserable or eating just cans of tuna, chicken breasts, boiled shrimp, or salmon, which I don't really want to do. Additionally, buying all of this and feeding my kids and finding the time to eat it while working co...

Hi all. I had a really bad experience with a physician today trying to get Contrave prescribed and I wanted to vent about it because it was so upsetting. This was a telehealth visit with a doc I didn’t know. For context, I am overweight but not obese (should lose \~30 pounds) with no other conditions. I suffer from severe food noise (always have) and I have an otherwise healthy lifestyle, the support I need is with cravings. And for context, I can’t tolerate GLP-1s due to gastric distress. I have no contraindications for this medication. He\* (\*that should have been my first sign) approached the conversation with skepticism from the first second. I could tell immediately that he was...

​ Exercise induced diarrhea is ruining trail runs for a lot of people and nobody talks about it enough It has a clinical name — exercise induced diarrhea, sometimes called runner's trots — and it is way more common than the running community lets on. Studies suggest somewhere between thirty and fifty percent of endurance runners deal with it regularly. That's not a small number. That's basically every other person on the trail suffering in silence and planning their routes around bathroom access. The mechanics behind it are pretty straightforward. When you run, your body redirects blood flow away from your digestive system toward your working muscles. You...

Festivities will be going on from 2-7 starting in Wash Park, moving to Alameda Ave at 4, and back to Wash Park at 5. Wear red!! Join us for music, food, speakers, and to tell billionaires (specifically Anschutz) that WE have the power.

​ The absolute panic of needing to poop on a trail run with no bathroom in sight Nothing humbles a runner faster than being four miles deep on a trail with zero bathrooms and a stomach that has decided it is completely done waiting. Not a gentle suggestion. Not a maybe. A full red alert, clock is ticking, non-negotiable situation. If you've been there you know exactly the specific flavor of panic this is. The cruel irony is that running itself causes it. The mechanical jostling of your intestines, increased blood flow redirected away from your digestive system, and the hormones your body releases during hard effort all move things through your gut faster than normal. A...

# [Research/N=1] Is the "3A5-Null" demographic (90% of Caucasians) trapped in a Cortisol loop due to a legacy spice bug? I’m a software engineer. I spent 20 years debugging Java/JSP, and I finally applied that same logic to my own Pharmacogenetic (PGx) report. I’ve identified what looks like a massive biochemical "port blockage" that might be affecting a huge portion of the population. ## The Hardware Specs (The "3A5-Null" Vulnerability) My Vantari PGx report (Page 19) confirms a staggering stat: **90% of Caucasians (and 50% of Asians) are CYP3A5 "Poor Metabolizers" (*3/*3).** In engineering terms, this means 9 out of 10 people in this demograp...
