I eat yogurt every day and I have much less reflux. If I finish the cups more often, I feel like my digestion is better, but sometimes in the moment, I ate too many other things. Water with lemon makes water better, but I found out later, it's also really healthy and immune-boosting
Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

What's the one health-foodie thing you eat/consume that you really believe in?
The various mushrooms that have been found to help bolster immunity and cognition. I can tell when I've missed a few days of my supplements. Which are in the form of powder added to dark cocoa powder and undetectable when I make it into hot cocoa.

Sooooo Dad is back in the hospital because his hematocrit was low and he was literally a quart low on blood. On the plus side, he texted me as soon as he was admitted, so he's learning to communicate. On the minus side, he's been having this low on blood/bad hematocrit issue for MONTHS, and the doctors still can't figure out where the internal bleeding is happening.
I am not coping.

I hope they figure out the blood thing, Atropa. That's alarming!

Re: health food - reminder that cheese protects against death from any cause.
That said, I just this morning had a steak mcmuffin and an orange juice because I have it in my head that red meat + vitamin C = iron absorption even though I know that my personal iron issues are not fixable via diet or supplements. I do believe pretty strongly in placebos, though. In general.

You do take vitamin C with iron to help it absorb.

I had my usual spring visit with my family recently with all the birthday parties, softball games, dance recitals, and other assorted events. My dad is still healing from the car accident and my mom hurt her wrist again after getting dizzy spells while recovering from RSV, but everything was reasonably fine! I gently bullied them into letting me do things for them! Came back Sunday night, and then yesterday, tornado touch down! My family is fine, but there's been a ton of damage in the community.
I am le tired.
