Agreed. Absolutely not a fan of the Affordable Care Act.
Replying to @VigilantFox
Kennedy boldly stated during his testimony that Americans do not like the Affordable Care Act before directing a pointed question at the hecklers in the crowd.
“They would prefer to be on private insurance...I would ask any of the Democrats who were chuckling just now: Do you think all that money, that $900 billion that we're sending to Medicaid every year, has made Americans healthy? Do we think it's working for ANYBODY?!”

He's right. I avidly dislike the affordable care act: being required to pay for access to a medical system that does not have my best interests at heart while *also* paying out of pocket for the care I actually need.

Sweetest dog ever. Meet Kiefer. He's been with me for 13 years and is thought to be about 16. Just a doggo chillin' with his person on a chilly fall evening.

Who would have guessed that pre-treating with an antibiotic would decrease the host's immune response when faced with a virus?
I wonder if increased use of other antimicrobials (hand sanitizer, anti-microbial wipes, anti-microbial soaps, spray cleaners) makes a difference too?
Not sure I would be in such a hurry to kill off my oral microbiome. Life-threatening complications ... Ischemic heart events ... Sepsis ... What do you think?
I know someone is motivated to feel better when they phone me from the grocery store before deciding between two options.
A happy microbiome means less inflammation!

Unpopular position. Social media has people swallowing Vitamin D like it was candy. Excess D contributes to tissue calcification, including vascular calcification. Think about it. Do you really want to increase vascular calcification right now? 1/

Family Friendly meal idea to support your healthy microbiome.
No grain. No dairy. Just yumminess and color.
Omit the potato if it doesn't suit your style. Make bigger burgers. Do what you need to do. :)

I like waking up to messages like this! It wasn't just one modality. It was a combination. This is why I keep up my continuing education. 🙂

So maybe we don't just serve the client -- age 8. (Who may not need to have her mom purchase GF sandwich bread for school lunches after all.) We serve the whole family. Go Mom!
Starting at an advantage with this family. They already like real food. 🙂

Seems odd that a university would have this jurisdiction over their students' food choices, doesn't it? "You must eat carbohydrates to stay enrolled?" Especially if they were doing well on the ketogenic eating style. Which it sounds like they were.

Has anyone listened to Randall Thompson's "The Peaceable Kingdom" lately? Just a teeny excerpt that reflects our current situation. ^^
Take heart. Ultimately the story ends well.

10:30 pm and I just came in from shoveling the deck. A little at a time until I get the yard cleaned up from Snowcember. It's 8 degrees outside. And it's lovely! Quiet. Clear. Is it weird that I enjoy shoveling at this time of night?
