pbc should I eat carbs before going to sleep.
Hi, I’m 55 and have had pbc for over 15 years and now also have stage 4
ckd
. I was wondering if anyone else has been told by a dietician that you should be eating 50grams of carbs, before going to sleep so you don’t starve the liver. If you have what do you eat? Thanks

Bisoprolol alternative to avoid cold extremities
Afternoon all, Despite 2 ablations my AFib episodes returned a year ago. Bisoprolol and flecainide seem to control it well, but I really struggled this winter with cold extremities. Despite plenty of layers, woollen socks, thick long skiing gloves I still have very cold fingers and toes. I tried

Supplement Reverses Hallmarks Of Old Age And Promotes Healthier Aging
Good Morning All, I thought this may be of interest to some or many. The supplement "Glynac" (combination of Glycine and N-acetylcysteine) showed after 16 weeks of participants taking doses of 100 mg/kg/d each of glycine and NAC, was associated with a host of benefits for key hallmarks of aging and

Actor Bruce Willis has received a further diagnosis of FTD - frontotemporal dementia
FTD - frontotemporal dementia is an umbrella term to include neurological diseases like PSP and CBD. I came up with a revised set of parody lyrics of the Beatle's Let It Be to include FTD, PSP & CBD. https://youtu.be/bRN-JPI7mJI Tim

Told me to drink lots of water, watch what I eat, get an ultrasound and come
