lef.org vs Nordic Naturals #fishoil #omega3

12.4: proj.cook/fisho/lef.org vs Nordic Naturals #fishoil #omega3:
. Children's DHA by Nordic Naturals
caught my eye as the only brand at my local store
that had the "3rd party testing" label
or any mention of a testing agency such as IFOS .

grasshopper socialization

10.17: news.apt`wildlife/grasshoppers/socialization:
. there was a meeting of 3 of the hoppers
(call them north, west, and south);
north came over to west
and they rubbed their back legs like a communication,
and then west flew away to south
as if to say "I'm interested in elsewhere"
in response, north flew in front of west,
and then turned its back on west .

olives and tannin woes

10.27: proj.cook/olives:
. I picked and pitted some of brother Art's olives .
. as the pits are pushed out of the olive,
there is a chunk of olive that comes with it,
which is usually discarded, but I tried to salvage them .
I boiled the pits and then the fruit flaked off;
but it smelled rather unfamiliar, so I tossed that water
even though it had some oil in it .
. then I pureed the half cup of fruit with 2 egg shells,
and re boiled . this smelled and tasted like olives .
. next time I'll skip the fruit separation,
just adding an egg shell puree to boiled pits,
and then do the separation in my mouth .

proc.cook/olive soup:
. cup/2 pitted olive meat was boiled in plenty of water;
the water was tossed, then this was boiled again:
vitamixing of meat and 2 egg shells .

10.28(next day):
olive cake side affects mostly gone now:
. I was having hot urine, sour stomach,
phantom olive odors,
... but I have looser stools now, and more cramping .

salt is real money during inflation!

co.amazon/cook/Himalayan Natural Unprocessed Cooking salt:
The Spice Lab's 1 Kilo Coarse - Himalayan Natural Unprocessed Cooking salt
salt is real money during inflation:
. I like to use this like rock candy,
but I'm a little worried about cooking with it,
because I got the impression that natural salt
is a good source of nitrates (or nitrites?)
and when these mix with protein in the stomach,
they can promote stomach cancer .
. according to a reagan-era top economist
we are headed for an inflationary depression,
and salt will be like real money again .
hoard salt now !

10,000 mcg Methylcobalamin B12

10.2: co.amazon/cook/Superior Source No Shot Methylcobalamin
 Vitamin B12 Tablets, 10,000 mcg:
so much methyl in one place!
. this makes me feel rich;
the methyl form is the best, and the potency is very high;
I'm getting better brain function too,
not like b12 in college with better memory,
but I'm getting more help with creative thoughts
while I'm trying to design software . I'm over 50 now .

#fructose kidney damage short magnesium

10.17: news.health/kidney/fructose damage may be from magnesium deficiency:
"We showed that hypomagnesemia independently predicts
the progression to end stage renal disease
in patients with advanced type 2 diabetic nephropathy" .
"Our findings suggest that magnesium supplementation
may be renoprotective in this population."
[Diabetes Care 2012 Yusuke Sakaguchi]
-- this could be how fructose causes kidney damage:
it creates insulin resistance,
which in turn causes magnesium resistance .

#Alzheimers #slowcarb vs #prions

10.8: todo.health/alz/high sugar bend proteins into prions?:
diane rheme show radio:
(interviewing a doctor who wrote a book about halucinations).
. alzheimers and parkinsons may both be
caused by prions, which are bent proteins
-- coincidentally,
high blood sugar can bend proteins;
so, perhaps high sugar promotes prions?

10.10: news.health/alz/Dr.Blaylock:
. inflammation and excitotoxicity
create free radicals; [stale buzz word
and he mispronounces acetylcholinesterase too?
but he does mention role of sugar
-- cutting-edge alzheimers research .].
