Maybe the pills started to taste bitter when he sold and the share price didn't keep falling to justify his kneejerk reaction???
I think a lot of people seriously underestimate the strength of the placebo effect https://www.verywellmind.com/what-is...effect-2795466
Not making any changes during lockdown, not brave enough too lol. I take so many supplements its hard to say what's doing the most good. The main issue I have is with occasional shooting pain in my eyes, which has reduced in intensity and frequency since taking the the PAZ vascular and vision tablets and some mild arthritis pain in my left ankle, which is worse with lack of walking under lockdown.
The fish oil may be doing the most good with the arthritis https://www.verywellhealth.com/fish-...is-5092351...I take these, https://www.bing.com/images/search?v...t=0&ajaxserp=0, lots of them because they're really cheap and my Dad when he was alive reckoned fish oil really worked for him. Max dose is 10 a day...no point mucking about with one or two in my opinion.
And what is good exercise and what is healthy food. thats the next question?
Seeing as we're off track already heres my view
I think at our age we can actually get away with not doing too much cardio eg walking running treadmilling etc. I'm not saying its bad but can aggravate our aging bodies. Best to do controlled resistance training eg weights or pushups type exercise in my opinion to keep muscle integrity which shrinks badly as we age.
And food.
Low carbs , eg no chips or donuts , no potatoes or kumaras (sadly)so try to cut to zero, cut back on fruit ,
get rid of white sugar and use stevia certainly no standard fizzy drinks , and even fruit juices are bad. yeh seriously. that Fresh up almost as bad as the coke.
eat lots of meat and eggs and fish. veges are good of course but protein is the main goal.
if you eat like this you can eat as MUCH as you want and still lose weight.
And some supplements are useful. I take Berocca and Redseal Perform
Vit D
Vit C
Fish oil if you dont eat fish regularly. (omega 6 is the goal)
And make sure you get some iodine. It only lasts four weeks in table salt (if there - eg Himalayan Pink salt doesnt contain iodine)
These are my salient points. FWIW and sorry for off topic.
we disagree then
I dont want my suggestion watered down
The strategy I have outlined it is important that potatoes and kumaras are avoided.
If they are one can eat as much meat and veg and still lose weight! Note that of the five food groups the body actually can live perfectly well without carbs but all the other food groups are required. Carbs have been around the shortest period in human history - we lived for millions of years with almost none of them. That is what we are adapted for. They are the reason for heart attacks, obesity , high blood pressure, and insulin resistance.
I stated my opinion and it has paid huge benefits for me.
/end rant
With all due respect, when one makes a "suggestion" as you did, it is really just a personal opinion, based on your own personal experience.
Mine is different, but that doesn't automatically mean it is wrong. Both are valid.
But if you feel that strongly that you needed to "rant" about it, go for it ... :)
... but not here, because the thread is now getting off track.
IMO rather then none ,less potatoes more kumara(less carbs and you can get Lotatoes now quite a lot less carb
Take it to a new thread and I will respond - once anyway. Not interested in having yet another ongoing "you're wrong and I'm right" debate.
With regards to your comment re my weight, I have always been way too free with sharing my personal info in this forum, but I had kind of hoped that would be respected. Not used as ammo to attempt to prove a point. My weight is not a "problem." I know exactly why I am overweight, and it is nobody's fault but mine. But it sure as hell isn't due to eating too many potatoes and kumara.
