  • I’m also recommended salt by my cardiologist and neurologist, primarily to raise my blood volume. Without it my blood pressure may run low and I get less blood to the upper half of my body. I mainly get my salt by adding electrolytes in my water throughout the day since I also need increased water intake. Though, I may sprinkle a little iodized salt on my meals if I feel I need it.




  • I’m curious what the frequency of these types of balloons are and if it’s increasing or we’re just more focused on them. There were supposedly some tweaks to sensors last year that started to include balloons and other objects that would have been previously filtered out as noise in the data. So, they’re at least probably getting detected more often. If it’s a matter of being more focused on them, then I wonder what risks they’re concerned about.





  • People don’t need a diagnosis to know what foods impact them. A lot of the time doctors will recommend elimination diets to find out what foods to avoid. There’s no need to say it’s celiac if you know gluten containing foods make you feel worse.

    For me it’s at least a wheat allergy, so I benefit from gluten free foods. I could get tested for celiac, but most tests require consuming gluten for a while in advance of testing. I’m not going to bother, since I know it’ll make me sick.

    I actually appreciate the trend of people going gluten free, because even though prices have gone up, companies are taking more effort to make gluten free alternatives. The early gluten free alternatives were fairly nasty and now some options are close to the real thing.

    I’m wondering why this hasn’t been addressed yet. There were posts last night asking about it that have since been removed. There should be some post explaining the incident and what actions are being taken. But, there definitely needs to be additional action taken to prevent this going forward.
