I take a few meds, mostly for my upstairs (screw loose up there somwhere) :whistle
However my diet consists of whatever I want to eat, if I'm going to live on this planet with all these mouthbreathers I will at least have a happy time doing so! I'll live my life the way it makes me happy and not care what others think.

it may make YOU happy, but not all the animals that were killed to feed your mouth. would you ever eat your pet animals ? you see, i don't make mental lines in the sand and draw what animals are my friends, which ones are food. and that makes me a better person, more ethical than others who do eat animals :hmm

if you go somewhere and you tell everyone how great it is to not eat meat, people will tell you how great it is to eat meat. i didn't start this thread to ask people their opinion on what to eat or whether or not to eat meat. i have always eaten meat and always will. i started this thread to talk about medication. let's see if we can all pitch in and get this thread back on topic. first person to mention diet after this post is a :shit head. :P




seriously, stop it.

think about those plants though, they are living things too. they may not have brains, but since when you cut them they grow back you can say they have a will to live. and you just callously eat their babies (seeds and nuts). absolutely disgusting.


see?

a very stupid and off topic argument.

meat eaters will eat meat and vegans will complain about it.

now, lets all put on our try hard pants and remember that this is a thread about medicines and how bad some can be. go team.

maybe you don't realize that your unhealthy diet, for the most part, caused your health problems. and the meds you have to take for it.

step 1. admission of a problem
step 2. do something to fix it

instead of

step 1. complain about a problem
step 2. take pills to manage symptoms

stress (college and cars)
drinking alcohol (used to drink a few drinks every day)
very spicy food (i'm cajun and bengali)
greasy food. (dimin' hoes)

what i'm taking isn't an antacid. it's an acid inhibitor. it doesn't work by neutralizing acid, it works by causing the stomach to produce less acid.

Hmmm :hmm
Yeah, I'd eat any one of my pets. My cats are annoying and piss on everything so I'd certainly eat them. My dog, I've had for MANY years...and I've fed him only human food that whole time (he's 15 in people years) so he's probably delicious. Fat as hell so he must taste great!
Heres my argument - If "god" didnt want us to eat them, he wouldnt have given us the ability to do so (assuming of course that there is a god or some form of entity in comparison)

Side Note: I'd also probably eat a person (human) if it came to that :popcorn We probably taste good, considering how much good stuff we eat

I don't think I could ever eat a human. We would be horrible to eat in terms of fat content...

If you guys want to start another vegan/meat eater topic, I suggest you do so. Stop derailing the OP's thread. He's already stated as much.

I haven't been sick for several years. I get headaches and every once in a while the shits. If I feel like crap for a day it is usually due to too much alcohol.

I have a bottle of vitamin c pills. If I think I am going to get sick, I will start taking those. I have some b12 vitamins just in case my shingles come back. It actually works very well.
ever try just eating oranges ? you will have more vitamin C than you can absorb in pills and it tastes better
No you wont.

one orange equals 70 - 100 mg of vitamin c. My pills individually have 1000mgs. I have heard absorption rate of anywhere from 10 to 80%. I would say it is probably closer to 40% or 50%.

Another thing is that pills don't go bad vs oranges. Its easier to have a bottle of pills sit there, than go to the store and buy oranges when you feel shitty.

Tasting better is a matter of opinion. Yes I agree with you.

But in general you will get more vitamin c with the pills.

Not to be a smartass but this is a Geo Metro forum, so it was derailed before we left the station :P
Regardless, let me pull this train back into its original area. I usually only take like Advil or Tylenol, other than my actual doctor prescribed medication, I take nothing else as most of it is in your mind :beer

be careful of tylenol. acetaminophen is a liver poison. even taking slightly more than the recommended dosage can damage your liver. also NEVER EVER take tylenol or any product that has acetaminophen in it before, during, or after drinking, it will hurt your liver quite a bit more than the alcohol alone would and it will not fix a hangover, in most cases it will make a hangover worse.
