Are there any safer options?

Hello folks,

my pregnant wife complains about aches and pains in the lower back and hip area during late stages of pregnancy.
I was wondering whether Co2 baths are helpful and also safe during pregnancy? Are there any side effects?

What is the best way to create these sort of baths? I am thinking about mixing Aluminium Sulfate and Sodium Bicarbonate to create the Co2.

Kind regards

Hello folks,

personally I try to avoid high fat cold water fish (hering, makerel) in general because of high PUFA content and limit big fish consumption because of mercury poisoning. Of course one should avoid canned seafood an fish in vegetable oils with the ecxeption of olive oil.

Once in a while I enjoy a can of sardines in oliveoil with a dash of tabasco and a sprincle of coarse salt. The can says 2g of PUFA per 100g but I think its worth it because of the nutritional value (protein source, calcium, minerals, copper, etc.).

What are your thoughts on canned fish like tuna, hering, makerel, sardines, mussels and octopus?
Can you recommend some varieties?
Is the canning process of any concern and does it reduce the nutritional value?
What sources would you recommend in central europe, germany?

Kind regards

Hello folks,

beeing a fair skinned phenotype can be stressfull during high heat summertime, especially if you want to cool down and swim in the sea and lakes.
Since I‘ve heard substances like caffein, niacinamide and salycylic acid can be protective agains excessive uv rays, I‘m wondering what would happen if I mix all together with coconut oil and apply the paste on the skin.

What are your thougts about this mixture? Can it be harmfull?

Kind regards
