Most of your lab results fall into the reference range and I wouldn't overinterpret them as long as you don't have any clinical signs. Concerning Vitamin D: yes, technically speaking, you are on the low side of the reference range BUT the value of the parathyroid hormone is normal. Parathyroid hormo...

Thank you, Aytundra, and please excuse my late answer. With the holidays and whatnot I didn't have the time to check in. Yes, this thread (and links) is/are explanatory and I remember to have read it some time ago. :roll: At the moment, I am not hungry for anything :wink: . With the family eating SG...

Hi 12345, where is your Strep infection? I assume in the throat? As long as your immune system has to fight a significant infection, you should reckon with a somewhat compromised immune status against other invaders. Meaning that you might be more susceptible than usual. Under these circumstances, I...

I´ll say it with Sheena Easton: For your eyes ooonly

Oh, a poem! Just for me! I'm a very happy bee! :D :D :D So for an answer come and see The biggest fret for happy bee :? When Christmas season comes along And city centers fill with throng Poor bee's heart only fills with dread Her biggest fear raises its head. Advent wreath and Christmas tree No big...

As for my protein levels, my serum globulin levels are higher, all other levels are within range. So I've to look into something that'll stabilise the blood proteins now. Elevated levels of serum globulins aren´t caused by higher protein consumption. As a general rule, higher serum globulin levels ...

I have lost ~5kg Problem is that right now i look too skinny :? and i want to be more muscular, ripped You look wonderful as you are! Why would you want to be "more ripped"? I´m as tall as you are (178 cm) and weigh around 68 kg. As I am a mesomorph, I might have the figure that you strive for (at ...

Hi Emeira, may I chime in? My nails are definitely growing slower but they are stronger and smoother. Number and visibility of the lunulae hasn´t changed. Body and facial hair is fewer and finer (a little less testosterone, I suspect). My head hair is growing slower as well and what is weird: its ge...

Oops, I´m late (was reading :wink: ). Thank you so much, Aytundra, for putting all these threads together for me. Very kind of you, I´m much obliged. And you might have a point with the need for (more) cholesterol because ...(drumroll)...my cycle went totally off kilter after switching to the Wai di...

Hi Aytundra (ecstatic wave), I see your name pop up at the bottom of the forum from time to time, and it cheers me up... Wow, I can cheer you up by simply being online? I'll be coming around more often! :) But seriously, I was spending hours reading through almost every thread on this and the previo...

No, I referred to my hip discomfort. About 4 weeks ago I had 300g of salmon daily for several days in a row. Hip mobility and pain level worsened during this time in spite of the high amount of theoretically beneficial omega3 fats (had no egg yolks then). After reducing animal protein to no more the...

On the practical side of things I must say that I am not (yet?) into juicing. I have a citrus press and use it from time to time for oranges but usually I simply eat various fruit (oranges, kiwi, apples, pears, bananas, mango, kaki,...) and dried fruit (raisins, dates, figs). I sip about a teaspoon ...

Sorry for picking up an old thread, just in case somebody is interested: I purchased 18l and the oil still is wonderful. It has a rich and nutty flavor, no scratching in the throat. I paid 117€ plus a whopping 65€ for "shipping and handling" (and southern Bavaria isn´t even THAT far from Italy!). I ...

RRM, Oscar and Emeira, thank you for your warm welcome. :D I´m actually thrilled to be here! I´ve learned so much from the experiences, failures and achievements of others so I hope to contribute a little bit with my report. Oscar, I knew you could be relied upon ;D If I ever die early my bees won´t...

I have been lurking for several weeks now, so I feel it´s time to (wo)man up and introduce myself. I´m 48, mother of 2, and a beekeeper (hence my nickname :) ). Lots of top quality raw honey over here :P ! I´m trying the Wai diet not for the usual reasons (wouldn´t mind to see my (minor) cellulite g...
