I’ve been here for a decade, and I’m a married father of 3. I made apple pie for the first time last night. I used store crust because I have an infection in my thumb from an inch deep splinter that got stuck in there last week and can’t really knead dough. Not spectacular, but my wife and kids liked it.

The filling was the best I ever had honestly. I never liked lines. I was an excessive jaw grinder and tho normally rather reserved, any upper would get me talking so much that I certainly wouldn’t want to hang out with me, so I wouldn’t know why anyone else would, and they didn’t. Me not doing hard drugs not only makes me have a better time, but it also makes the people doing hard drugs have a better time. I just stick to weed. A lot of weed, but it’s medical. If I smoked recreationally, I would want sativa. Probably would be content smoking sour diesel the rest of my life. Instead I buy discount heavy indica and go through about 3 ounces a month. Chronic pain is hell. I would kill myself if I didn’t have kids, but I do so I can’t...

>Do multivitamins actually work?
The answer is that there is no proof (journal articles/stances from medical associations), that daily multivitamins do anything for you but get pissed out unabsorbed. Just because there isn't a real pro or against study, doesn't mean that they won't be helpful to some people though. There's always the placebo effect to consider, too! They're not a substitute for food with its various enzymes, amino acids, and micronutritets, fiber, etc.

Many vitamins are tricky to absorb through stable forms they can put into vitamins vs what happens when they hit your stomach acid, you see. Vitamin D, vitamin C, calcium and other supplements, however, have plenty of their positive studies. Overdo C and calcium and there can be kidney stones.
Vitamin E has some negative associations in studies of stroke. A, E, D have fat storage and overdose concerns.

If you are incubating a fetus or just beforehand? Folic acid shortages can cause neural tube defects. Women should watch that in child bearing years. Menses and blood loss can contribute to not enough iron in the diet as a woman? Anemia. Too much iron in the diet as a male? Increased heart disease. (Be careful overusing cast iron and red meat, and donate blood monthly).

So, my advice? Take it when you feel like you're under attack from a virus, traveling, need energy, or times of emotional duress or stress at work. And, the flipside is don't feel like forgetting to take it means a damn thing. You can take your Vitamin D once a week even.

Not him you're replying too, but I know that feel, only difference being I take at least a week break sometimes to lower my tolerance. Means I save some money at the cost of feeling like I'm falling apart like a jigsaw puzzle all day. Have you tried vaping? Cleaner than smoking and less smell, but not as nice as smoking out in the garden. I recommend smoking sativa, vaping indica. And fuck uppers, fine when you're on them just afterwards is shit.

the scientists working for the vitamin companies say they work because they were paid to. the scientists who aren’t being paid by the vitamin companies will be honest. the difference is that the vast majority of scientists are not being paid by outside sources to test vitamins. are you really this fucking thick headed? do you think everything in life is black or white? no one is this ignorant without a tremendous amount of effort and mental gymnastics. fucking retard

Depends on whats in them? its kind of like saying "Does eating at a buffet make you fat"? It entirely depends on what they put in it and at what amounts.
