Too close to Trumpteenth!...............
LOL! That’s a good one.
I wonder how long it took some aide with a Magic Marker to put the fake grill marks on those hot dogs.

“With support from the Avocado Nutrition Center”
Too many calories in my book. Rather have something with taste...like a berry...or a peach.
2 grams is not a lot of protein. Prefer whole milk, cereal and strawberries.
a small avocado 160 calories...a med one...320 calories.
I pop 2.5 mg of melatonin at midnight, and it keeps me asleep through the witching hour.
I wonder who paid for the study?
I’ve often wondered if melatonin is good for adults, since our bodies were designed to decrease its production as we age.
Melatonin raises my BP.
first off, I love avacados
but I’m tired of these studies funded by the manufacturers or growers of things being studied
I simply don’t trust these studies anymore. Period.

Who puts cheese on raw burgers? Sheesh!
I should’ve mentioned that I don’t take melatonin every night—just when I feel like I’ve been short on sleep. I’ve read that taking it regularly might tell your brain to ease up on its own production.
Also, it’s important to take a really small dose; otherwise, you can feel groggy the next day. And it can interact with meds like blood thinners, diabetes meds, and blood pressure meds—not an issue for me, but good to know.
I was taking melatonin and noticed that after a few days of taking it I was really sad. So I stopped for a bit, then tried again. Same thing. I can use the lotion containing it but not ingest it.
Hmmm...I perhaps didn’t notice a sadness. Didn’t know there was a lotion. I’ll have to try it. Most people take it without any trouble...not us.
Point of interest. Have you ever taken Scopolamine?
I can’t stand the morning brain fog of even 1/10 a 3g melatonin pill (300mg). However, 8g of pistachios before bed, providing only about .64mg, helps with no side effects. I think melatonin sensitivity varies.
Yep, differences in reaction...and, of course, I’m allergic to nuts...no help there.
