Hi - I’m baaaacckk - (calcium tip)
Well, Gang,
I H O P E my server problems are past tense now!!!!!
Thanks to the archives, I have been able to pretty much keep up with my list
groups. When posts didn’t make sense, I went to the archives and caught up.
We had 80*F here Wednesday, 36*F on Thursday! bummer!! That is a major
reason I HATE mail order (mailbox delivery) Rx’s.
Iris, I was thinking about my joint pains and then it hit me that with you
being a female and just drinking milk and eating cheese is not sufficient
enough calcium; if you can, find a sale and have the cats on a 2-day diet
<gr
take 4-6 a day, with meals. You may see a BIG difference in your pain in
about THREE days-to-a week. I read something recently that a female needs
citrate calcium and it is necessary to have some magnesium in it. Also
vitamin D, but if you find some that doesn’t have D, your milk would
probably sufficient for that - dunno. I bought Osco brand - don’t know if
you have them in Canada, but compare labels with house brand(s) and name
brands. Don’t put out mega bucks.
I, too, drink a lot of milk and eat cheese (even ice cream), but when I have
run out of calcium (37 years now) and try to save a buck and wait until I
have enough $$, I can hardly walk and the pain really is stressful,
discouraging, depressing, and whatever else I can think of. It’s just not
worth the suffering and I find a way to give up something to get it. If you
can feel better, you’ll get (and keep) the job and then will be able to
afford less than $10 a month.
I found out about the calcium by hearing a convo in the same room I was
setting up my Tupperware display. It certainly couldn’t hurt to try it. My
doctor was upset with me only because of the fact that he didn’t recommend
it. Of course, YMMV. 8^)
