Alpha Lipoid Acid & Acetyl L Carnitine - Help!
Hi everyone, I have a dilemma - can you help me? I have hypo-thyroidism which is treated with lexothyroxine. I'm also a type-1 diabetic and just been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy (although still being investigated), I've been put on duloxetine for pain, but am experiencing some not-very-pleasant

Glucose Tolerance Test
Hi everyone, I am currently 27 weeks pregnant and had two risk factors for gestational diabetes - my BMI is 30+ and I have a first degree relative with type 2. Today I had my GTT, and won’t find out the results until next week, but ever since the test, I’ve felt very nauseous, headachey with the driest

Statins and Malcolm Kendrick's: The Great Cholestrol Con!
I saw Helvella's post regarding the article in the Guardian on NHS checks; I did post this elsewhere, but I guess would only be visible to folk following the original post, so I thought it may be helpful to post separately. Some on here may well be aware of this work: The work of Malcolm Kendrick

'But you look OK'
I don't look OK, spinal curvature, so I've never had this. Can folks explain to me where the idiots who say this are coming from? Broken limbs, skin conditions, people don't look OK. Systemic conditions, heart, liver, kidneys, GI, people being correctly treated look OK. My SIL has myeloma - but she

Mitochondria, sugar, red lights and Doxazosin
My scientist friend, who is working on a vibrotactile coordinated reset prototype for me, drew my attention to an article in New Scientist - which is very interesting https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg25734290-100-restoring-the-brains-mitochondria-could-slow-ageing-and-end-dementia/ Quick take

Are statins essential if you are suffering from AF and/or past strokes? And how much is 'good'?
Just seeking some views on what constitutes the 'correct' level of statins to take in various situations. I have been taking 10 mg of simvastatine for six months and found this is no problem for me and it has marginally reduced what was a very low LDL cholesterol level in the first place. But my doctor

Insulin Resistance, Parkinson's Disease, Consequences And What To Do About It
The topic of insulin resistance (IR) in PwP is not often discussed. Has your MDS or neurologist ever tested you for IR? It is estimated that two thirds of people with PD who are not diabetic, have IR and very likely are not even aware they have IR as discussed here : https://www.parkinson.org/blog/

Why watermelon is good for us
Only 6.8% of U.S. adults have optimal cardiometabolic health, while an estimated 47 million have cardiometabolic disorders Watermelon contains L-citrulline and L-arginine, which are nitric oxide (NO) precursors; NO helps relax blood vessels and widen arteriesConsuming watermelon juice attenuates reductions

Week 2 - Done
Since I'm spreading this week out to get back to Monday/Wednesday/Friday running, I did W2R3 today, it seems strange leaving so much time between the runs but I'll be back to the preferred routine next week. A nice HR controlled joffle, most time spent in the aerobic zone, rising to threshold during

Greetings
Hello all. I joined this forum today as my doctor has told me I need to get from 87kg, 13.7st, 191.8lb to 70kg. That is a loss of 17kg, 2.7st, 37.5lb. This is assuming my conversions are correct. Recently I was diagnosed with Diabetes T2, Metabolic Syndrome, and Multifactorial chylomicronemia syndrome

I've signed up for Tim Spector's ZOE study looking at blood sugars and gut health
I've long had an interest in how the foods we eat affect inflammation and weight and generally follow low -carb eating, although I often lapse and am not as diciplined as Id like to be. So this sounds fascinating to me, especially as I'm also interested in gut-health science. Taking part starts by

magnesium, potassium, taurine combo supplement?
I was doing some research and came across this plan which suggests taking the above 3 supplements. I'm aware magnesium has been discussed and recommended but wasn't ware of the combination. Does anyone take all 3 or have any links to other articles regarding the benefits? Does anyone have a UK source

a 24 hour FAST regenerates stomach stem cells!
Today is O.M.A.D. #331 (one meal a day with all calories -- usually 1,500 or less -- eaten within a two hour window). I've lost 60 pounds (another 30 to go!) and it was pretty, damn easy! I eat pizza (cauliflower crust), meat, dairy, fruit, potatoes... but in moderation. I came across a new YouTube
