hi Lar!
How you been doing?
Listen, i was just on my way over to admin to see what’s up there ... ... when i thought i’d drop by here with this supplement list to get your expert advice, PLEASE ... ... please?
... i’m sort of dx-ed “depressed” and have to take 10 mg of lexapro as punishment ... (ha!) ... ... i’m a 52 yr old guy ...
... then because my sinuses do whatever, i also take a couple snorts per nostril of “Nasacort” per day, usually in the morning ...below we find my supplements ... ... i wash all these guys down with coffee every morning ... (... not too good huh? ... but i LOVE coffee!)
i also eat a varied diet ... ... i like vegetables and fruits ... i eat beef upon occasion(s) ... and grains and chickens and fish and burgers and fries ... ... no, i quit the fries ... a lot fewer sweets these days too ... ... carrots are sweet ... apples ...grapes
do i need to spread this out instead of all at once? ... ... this or something like it, is what i have done for years ... repeated physicals from various and current gp(s) have not shown any liver or kidney inadequacies ....
i used to take st. john’s wort and gingko biloba ... ... but i thought that they had been de-bunked ... ... not so?
everything i am taking is out of sheer superstition ... ... ... i have not read nor seen any scientific research for any of these supplements ... ... well, except for the fish oils .... but that’s because i got that from you ... i’ve been taking the omegas for 5 or 6 months now ...
you are my hero here at Babble ... ... i appreciate your patience and value your advice ... you are a kind, good guy ... thanks! ... ...
