I eat a lot of yogurt...it's helped with the reflux. Have considered other things, but haven't made up my mind...it might be harder on me if certain systems worked more often, is all.

I think I also take Centrum Silver, but I'm not going to get up and go look to confirm. I do remember being overwhelmed with choices for daily vitamins and reading the label for that one and thinking it seemed right enough. Getting my blood pressure checked tomorrow (after taking the prescribed BP meds for over a week, so feeling pretty good about that) and maybe also COVID and flu vax? I already got a flu shot, would getting a second one be bad? It's a drive through flu shot that also supposedly has COVID so my idea of how it will all work is probably quite wrong.

On a separate note, I could also use Hivemind help on a cheap, pre-paid plan phone for the girls.

They don't have anything now and it's hard to function in the City without one, much less stay in touch with people.

So I'm for something that can download useful apps like NextBus and send texts and take pictures.

Somebody said Cricket. But I don't know anything about phones and plans except how to pay my bill on our iPhones.

I use Puretalk which is AT&T based. It works, but it's not fancy and can require some phone configuration. My wife has Mint Mobile which, again, not fancy but it works and is based on T-mobile (and owned by T-mobile now I think). Both have worked fine and are pretty inexpensive. No phone configuration with Mint so far.

I feel bad I've been away for so long. Just a lot going on with work and some health (not anything too serious) issues.

It took HOURS to find the three supplements I needed from actual reputable third-party tested sources. Huge pain in the ass.

Hi, Gud!!!

Anybody have an opinion on gut health and supplements to support your gut biome?

In my experience, you sometimes have to experiment with different brands of probiotics to see which one works best. (Although my gut is such a jerk that I'm turning to weed, so maybe don't listen to me.)

Hey Gud! I was just looking at Mint Mobile and that looked good, or maybe it's all the ads by Ryan Reynolds following me around.
