Five servings of fruits and vegetables a day — in particular, three vegetables and two fruits — provide the greatest mortality benefit, according to an observational study and meta-analysis in Circulation. Researchers analyzed results from the Nurses’ Health Study and Health Professionals Follow-Up Study. Over 100,000 people regularly completed food-frequency questionnaires and were followed for […]
I just learned how to embed a tweet into a blog post so I decided to embed my own tweet (in case you were wondering).
I have a Covid shelf in my Pandemic Pantry which can now be redeployed. The question is what do I do with all of those disinfectant wipes I bought?
Since the initial outbreak, physicians and scientists have learned that infections with SARS-COV-2, severe enough to require hospitalization, can elicit an over-activation of the immune system. The inflammation can become severe enough to cause extensive organ damage, but the degree of damage may not be known or recognized for weeks to months after recovery. In […]
The short and simple answer is no. This eating pattern worked for me until it didn’t. For example, researchers told 51 adults with overweight or obesity to eat 1,200 to 1,500 calories a day, either as three meals or as mini-meals (with at least 100 calories each) every few hours. After six months, the grazers […]
This is a very interesting article. I had read briefly about the prone position. It’s good to have for reference. Of note is the fact that is the only way I can sleep at night. In fact I had to get a special CPAP mask that attaches in the back. I can only sleep on my stomach. For some reason I just can’t breeze at all on my back, and not well on either side. I have been like that for as long as I can remember.
Nice picture of you! Your hair is slowly growing in. Do you wear a mask at home?
No mask at home and when I’m in the car no mask either. I went for my walk today, no mask. BUT if I’m anywhere near other people the mask is ON.
Have you read any scientific articles discussing whether the COVID-19 virus originated in a lab in Wuhan? I hear so many people talking about this. And I wonder whether we will ever know. I doubt the Chinese would ever admit to this. Is there anyway to find out definitely the origin?
There’s way too much speculation in the media on the possibility the Wuhan virus originated in the level 4 lab or in the market. We know the lab was studying corona viruses in bats. And we know bats were sold for food in the market. We will likely never know the truth because no one wants either the blame or the responsibility for this deadly virus.
That’s what I was thinking.
