Re: New Here

Fabulous! I did not know about that. And...if that, in addition to letting me know about the search function, is a way to tell me I was wandering off topic, it is the most polite and tactful I have ever seen :) I'll watch out. Not at all! Not at all! I did not even consider the idea that you were “...

Re: New Here

. I've gone through the excellen primer, I should have said that in my intro, and yes, I do need to find my way to the wiki and go through that. I also have a lot of interest in CVD, because I am at risk for that due my CAC scan. So that is why I may comment from time to time on overlapping factors...

Re: Mary Kay Ross, MD / Savannah, GA

[ In the scheme of things, the costs are reasonable for what is offered and WAY less than the cost of long-term care of any sort. However, it's simply out of our price range. If they were open now we'd probably figure out a way to make it happen. As said, pricing is not outrageous given the doctors...

Re: Update to: Two generations at once...

On a down note...looks like my husband (mother died of AD) has started to travel the path and he is completely in denial. So, I may be a double-duty caretaker it seems. My younger sister is having memory issues but she is completely willing to jump on board, is following everything I'm doing closel...

Re: Letter to my father

I am in the publication, one of those 100 who have made major changes out of the suffocating vice-like grip of Alzheimer’s Disease. At this moment in time I am doing well. The million-dollar question, which I try not thinking too much about, is; will I continue to improve over the years or at least...

Re: Xcode Life vs Promethease and other raw data analyzers

Yes, did the test and I'm also an 8. Given that I'm primarily plant-based (added wild caught salmon as I delved into all this stuff) eating eggs is out, especially 8 :-). I've upped my intake of the other things such as nuts, broccoli and added Alpha GPC and Citicoline. I alternate them...couldn't ...

Re: Gundry internet ads

Thanks for the ingredient name and for your support! Recent labs show some still bad cholesterol markers and insulin still 11, leptin 61. :( So will be working with my functional medicine doctor on those....some other concerns, too. She is a big fan of Jason Fung, I have come to learn! :D But also ...

Re: Xcode Life vs Promethease and other raw data analyzers

] When I finally got around to closely comparing the two I found that Found My Fitness had info on things that Promethease didn't. Not sure why. It could be that some that FMF highlighted are hidden in the "clinvar" bucket or they didn't consider to be an issue. Three that were on FMF but...

Re: Any other options for prostate cancer treatment other than suppressing testosterone?

I've learned that my friend isn't willing to give up drinking, nor he is willing to add any supplements or extracts to his regimen. I am sorry to hear this. Sad for him, for his wife and for you, and his friends. I can only imagine how challenging it would have been for me if my partner had not bee...

Re: Bredesen protocol: meditation on steroids

Greetings! I’ve read about this meditation method and googled it but not seeing how to get it. I did see in some board postings (that I can’t locate) that some of you have a link to share via email. Anyone got it pass on the love? Would be so grateful. Also anyone doing the $75 month subscription f...
