Did you really get paid much better? You're only as much as you save. Standardizing expenses to ensure a fair comparison usually surprises many. Save to what? A bank account? Rather, let's say it's to buy some of the S&P

The higher the ratio of women to men, the better the site. Bumble likely has a higher percentage of women, as they market to them. Good for males.

Sometimes paying seems like a good idea. More exposure on Badoo was lucrative. Same with little features on Tinder and OkCupid at certain points during their development. Most dating sites are a bad deal for males, mainly due to the gender

The idea is to push PTH to the bottom of the range. Can be done with a combination of calcium and vitamin D. Get more calcium (maximum 2:1 Ca:Mg) than phosphorus. Serum 25(OH)D at 40(-60) ng/mL or greater. More vitamin D3 can be handle

Calorie restriction traced back to protein/methionine restriction. Better to just fast and take melatonin (sustained-release). 16:8, 18:6, 20:4, 24:24, 36:12, 36:36, etc. I am biased toward 36:36. 1-2 extended fasts per year. I am wond

I realized at some point that if I took a 1-year break between high school and college, I could've secured retirement right away. $12/hr is $24k/year. The summer after high school and the full year that follows is 1.25 years.

I said no need to take so much.. for no reason. With advancing age, higher amounts (+ magnesium and K2) mimic/amplify the actions of hGH/IGF-1 pushing back toward youth. More D3 is often needed with age for the same effect. The co

K2 and magnesium above the RDA aren't needed with smaller (less than or equal to 5,000 IU/day) amounts of D3. They do work much better when all are taken together.

Once a month is too infrequent, but it'll work fine. 1x/week is better. 1x/day is best. Some benefits are missing versus daily dosing, but the main things are still in play.

400 IU is the RDA. On the other hand, the RDA assumes 20% will come from food and the other 80% from sunlight. That is, 2000 IU/day is actually what's expected from all sources. Enough to get 25(OH)D in range is the more generaliz

Can you get D3 from a store? Prescriptions are usually vitamin D2. 20,000 IU or 50,000 IU D3 1x/week is a great amount. Or you could try taking a lesser/proportional amount each day. You could also get one of those sun/S.A.D.

RDA is 400 IU. It's actually the food RDA, with 20% expected from food. Overall RDA (sun + food) is 2000 IU. Therapeutic vitamin doses are 10x the RDA. 6x is elevated while doing "nothing" and 20x is full saturation ("bu

Someone tried 300 IU/kg vitamin D3 and 45 mg vitamin K2 MK-4 (15 mg 3x/day) for bone health. 100 mcg MK-7. Magnesium was increased to 1,200 mg. Use a tool like CRON-o-meter to check diet. PRAL score. ZMA.

Works well. I've been taking at least 50,000 IU/day for over 2 years and serum calcium is always in range. I add milligrams of K2 MK-4, micrograms MK-7, and 100s of mg of magnesium (now over 1g).

Before adding supplemental vitamin D, first ensure nutrient sufficiency and that all RDAs are being met (with just food). For example, low magnesium impairs vitamin D conversion and is a more common problem. Further, hGH/IGF-1 also pus

There are 2 tests (a few months apart) needed to calibrate vitamin D dose. One could even go through the Coimbra protocol induction (though they don't have MS) to find the optimal amount for them.

It's harder to be too high than too low, especially with enough magnesium and vitamin K2. When high, just lower calcium to the 500-600 mg range and use magnesium to eclipse phosphorus.

Toxicity traces back to hypercalcemia. If serum calcium labs are still normal (helped along with added magnesium and vitamin K2), then there aren't any issues.

Low magnesium impairs vitamin D activity and levels. Same occurs as a result of declining hGH/IGF-1 with age. Further, cholesterol within skin diminishes with age (and cortisol rises) lessening response to sunlight. The further north,
