Walnuts and cholesterol
A large study in 2018 from Harvard University combined the results of 26 different studies examining the effects of walnut consumption on blood lipid levels and other risk factors for cardiovascular disease. What they found was that those eating one portion of walnuts a day (28g) had lower total cholesterol

Fish and pregnancy and ADHD
In the 1960s the discovery of mercury in fish led to a condemnation of eating fish during pregnancy. Extreme precautions were issued as there was little research on it. 50 years later there is a lot of evidence that the benefits of eating fish far Far FAR outweigh any risk from mercury. The benefits

Newly diagnosed with pmr and Gp has suggested alendronate to preserve bone density while taking prednisone. Would prefer diet & excercise.
Having read all I can on the topic it seems the research points to biphosphonates as being superior to diet (including extra calcium & vit D) & excercise for preventing bone loss in post menopausal women. Would love to know if anyone can show evidence this may not be true as would much prefer to try

Went on Prednisone today
Hi, everyone! I went on 60 mg of prednisone today and heard taking Vit K was good for me. How much would be safe to take? I've already been taking Vit D 4, 1800mg of calcium w/ magnesium & zinc. I've also been taking Folic Acid and Omega 3 Fish Oil. It's only been 4 hours since I started, but tomorrow

New guy here
I have taken
Amino
Acids
, Beef Liver Tablets and Creatine over the last month, but I am unsure if these supplements are risky to be taking or not. These supplements have helped me gain some strength back and I lost some fat, but I have also noticed some of my urinary side effects have returned.

A frustrating case of parathyroidism
Has anyone been diagnosed with primary hyperparathyroidism but nothing shows up on a scan? I feel pretty fatigued most of the time and would like to get rid of the tumour. I have also lost bone density because of the calcium being taken from them and have to take alendronic acid to stop any further deterioration
