  1. You are looking at a Harley Fat Girl? Must be for someone else.
  2. 16 front, 46 rear here but I don't do any highway droning.
  3. I don't see where they say it is dampened.
  4. It's pressure tested every time he starts the bike.
  5. Not saying this is it but if the radiator cap isn't holding proper pressure, it could be an issue.
  6. I didn't watch the video but did you read the comments under it? Here's a couple. Metformin questionable to say the least leading to risk of b12 deficiency of particular concern to vegans.Berberine offered as an alternative though not for prengnancy. I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in 2006 and placed on metformin. It did a good job of managing my sugars but devastated my kidneys. My GRE was 17 ( you go on dialysis at 15) and they took me off metformin. My kidneys recovered, thanks in large part to a WFPB diet, but my diabetes is another story. Nothing else worked, I was briefly on insulin, but am now doing ok on Mounjaro. Heaven only knows what damage it is doing to my body, but my latest A1c was 5.9 and I can live with that (I hope)!
  7. I'm always telling the wife that ignorance is bliss. ๐Ÿ˜‰
  8. Sure is a lot of information there. This grabbed my attention:
  9. I have always said this. ๐Ÿคฅ ๐Ÿ˜ Eggs have always been a meal for me (two or three per day) but I stopped cold turkey after the cholesterol test. Now you are telling me I going to turn into biden? But if I do eat them, I'm headed for diabetes? Your killing me dude with stress of food. ๐Ÿ˜‰ For real. I have been blessed with good health my whole life and I'm wondering if changing things now is good or not. Maybe moderation? We will see.
  10. If this is a 2023 Buick, isn't it still under warranty?
  11. I'm surprised you can buy anything analog anymore. I'm not surprised that Swamp and Zero are at different ends of the spectrum.
  12. Just got mine today. F 25OH Vitamin D 62 30-100 (ng/mL) So I guess that is good. I take 2,000 IU a day.
  13. Just a quick look. The main consequence of vitamin D toxicity is a buildup of calcium in your blood (hypercalcemia), which can cause nausea and vomiting, weakness, and frequent urination. Vitamin D toxicity might progress to bone pain and kidney problems, such as the formation of calcium stones. And another: However, taking too much vitamin D in the form of supplements can be harmful. Children age 9 years and older, adults, and pregnant and breastfeeding women who take more than 4,000 IU a day of vitamin D might experience: Nausea and vomiting Poor appetite and weight loss Constipation Weakness Confusion and disorientation Heart rhythm problems Kidney stones and kidney damage
  14. My wife had some numbers that were a little high and with my cholesterol numbers, we have been weeding out more and more processed and high sodium foods. It does make it more of a pain in the butt to eat day to day but we'll live.
  15. Thanks, I generally avoid any drug (apart from mild antibiotics) unless everything else won't work and it's very necessary.
  16. Years ago I read that soy causes low testosterone and really doesn't look appealing so I've never tried it. If I can use it in place of eggs and don't hate it, might be worth a try. Let me know your trick. https://www.mensjournal.com/health-fitness/how-much-soy-can-you-really-eat-before-it-affects-your-testosterone-w479484
  17. Any foods shown to lower Cholesterol?
  18. There sure is conflicting information on eggs out there.
  19. So I haven't been to the doctor in about three years so I thought it wouldn't hurt to go. All my specs (blood work) came back within range except for Cholesterol, LDL Calculated and NonHDL Cholesterol. Triglycerides, VLDL, HDL and Chol/HDL Ratio all within range. I haven't spoken to the Doc yet about it but I'm sure I can improve the numbers with diet. So I normally eat two or more eggs everyday so now I only eat one and haven't ate red meat or pork in years. I force myself to eat broccoli almost daily with other veggie's and could lose five pounds or so which I will do. Any suggestions to improve my numbers without becoming a rabbit?
  20. Just as a side note, we have checking all foods lately for sodium content and I was shocked when I looked at the spaghetti sauce we had, 600mg per serving and I'm guessing we would consume more than one serving. Just about everything packaged is loaded with it.
  21. Good stuff Scott. I word of advise about weight lifting as you age, be sure to work up slowly. Once I hit 60, had a warning sign trying to push more than I should have while bench pressing even though I have been doing it most of my life. It scared me enough that I have become content with moderate weight.
