Vitamin shoppe saratoga ny

The garden of Life organics men's once daily. Surprisingly it has a pleasant smell to it too.

I give my girls baby food (chicken or turkey) as a snack when I run out of their Nulo broth. I can’t help but wonder about the cholesterol & sodium content everytime I give it to them. Is this too much?

Why is protein POWDER so popular for post workout muscle repair over something like meat, beans or dairy?
Can greek yogurt be a substitute for protein powder?
I ask because Vitamin Shoppe is pretty willy nilly with stocking the protein powder I like and often times don't have it, so thinking of switching to yogurt or glass of milk post workout which has same amount of protein per serving...but then why is powder so popular?

Stay away these things are expensive and made me itchy as hell 😭
I’m still taking oral clairvee and vitamin shoppe brand 100 billion. My dominant lacto strain is crispatus and these two don’t have crispatus so I’m hoping to throw some new lacto into the mix and see if they’re any better at fighting off pathogens. Too soon to say if they’re working for vag but they’ve definitely helping my stomach at least!

Looks like CN is finally doing repairs?

Likely Translation: The Adirondack mess is partially on Amtrak but more a saga about CN, US-Canada relations and the way passenger freight companies operate in North America.
The CN branch that the Adirondack runs on in Quebec is all but abandoned by CN, which is why they don't really maintain it. The very rare freight train running slowly on it is fine for their needs. But Amtrak needs that route to get to Montreal, which is why they cancelled service all last summer when CN put out speed advisories for the warm weather. Unless, that is, Amtrak goes back to running on the CP route from Rouses Point, which totally should have been an option but CP is even worse than CN when it comes to allowing passenger trains on their tracks so I guess that didn't work out as an option.
In Canada, unlike in the US, there is no federal legislation requiring freight trains to give priority to passenger trains either, and of course Amtrak is a US entity so there are no repercussions in Canada for CN and CP for making Amtrak miserable.
The Canadian public could help apply pressure but ridership into Montreal is anemic, largely because the overnight Amtrak service was dropped in 1995 for daytime service -- since that's what Vermont and the other states wanted to subsidize for their towns along the line. No one really wants to leave Montreal at 11 am and get to NYC at 10 pm (or later given typical delays) when the drive is only 6.5 hrs and flight time is 1.5 hrs.What could help the popularity of the service is preclearance, which in theory has been agreed to but requires construction and staffing that neither the US nor Canada really want to pay for. Preclearance would easily save 2 hours from the trip, which currently requires all passengers to get off at tiny Rouses Point, process through customs, and then get back on and wait for the last person.
In any case, the repairs now being made are in Quebec, not upstate NY. The service is being terminated in Saratoga because there isn't really a convenient way to turn around the trains north of there, and passenger volumes are very low.
Meanwhile, the Maple Leaf service to Toronto does a little better since in Canada it is run by VIA Rail crews, not Amtrak, and makes numerous stops in Ontario, making it a more valuable service. It also runs mostly on tracks now owned by the commuter rail agency GO Transit that are in top condition. But it suffers from the same excruciating border crossing (made a little easier by the nice Niagara Falls stations) and punishing daytime schedule, plus a route that is nowhere near the shortest distance between the two cities. Preclearance is also impossible on the Maple Leaf because of all the stops it makes in Canada.

I've been carnivore for 4 years this fall. I have been struggling with libido and lack of motivation for a couple years now. My free and total testosterone have come up low multiple times. I tried testosterone cream for 6 months and didn't notice a difference. I went to a med spa on Monday and got a butt load of tests done that my endo has refused me. As suspected, my shbg was flagged high. My free t was also low, but my total t was fine. I'm assuming the testosterone cream didn't work for me because of the shbg issue going on. What can I do to decrease the shbg (which should increase free t)? I don't have a follow up scheduled for a few weeks, and I would like to get headed in the right direction asap as my low sex drive has been an ongoing issue putting a lot of strain on my relationship. I did look into boron supplementation, but it seems it only works temporarly from what I understand.
I eat the same thing ever day which consists of an 11oz grassfed/finished ny strip with 2tbsp butter and 1lb of 80/20 ground beef. I only drink water.
Other supplements I take: 1000mcg methylfolate (deficiency), 2000iu d3 (deficiency), 10mg lugols iodine (deficiency) and 500mg vitamin c (helps with my energy levels/allergies).
