    Thyroid and Keto

    I have been hearing and researching Thyroid and Keto...Although Keto can be fine with and under-active thyroid, it is not good for long term. Many women who have been on Keto long term are now having metabolism problems. They have either gained weight or cannot lose anymore. Has anybody here had...

    Type 1 COVID Vaccine

    Feeling a little sick with perhaps some aches and pains, is a side affect which some people have, not all do. The nurse should of explained this to you. Hope that you feel better in a couple of days.

    Diablo no added sugar

    If I do want something sweet, which is not often. I melt some dark chocolate with some cream and a little sweetener, then put some almonds or Brazil nuts into the chocolate, and coat. Put them in the fridge to set, then put them into a food bag, so I can take one when I feel like it. I do the...

    GP told me today to stop checking my blood sugar

    When he told you not to test your BS, did you ask why? I would of asked him "What harm am I doing?, surely it is good for me to keep a check on my health?" Maybe he feels that the monitors are not accurate enough, and is worried that it may stress you out, not sure. Some people can become...

    Breakfast ideas

    I must admit. I have tried vegan sausages, burgers, and vegetable burgers. I do not understand how people can eat these foods and not have a spike. The carbs in these foods are quite high. I used to love Birds eye veg burgers, but when I look at the carbs its something like 20 carbs for one...
