*sitting in the cold with one sock on and my other foot is barefoot with no shoes on, looking pathetic and holding a sign that says*

"It only takes a few seconds of kindness to make someone's day, you could make my day in less than that.."

I'm panhandling for grocery money, seriously anything helps.. give what you can, it really makes a difference. It does.. even just a dollar helps. I wouldn't be sitting out here in the cold begging for change if I didn't need it - cash app: $euesworld and Venmo: euesworld

Another citizen’s initiative, this one with regards to the origin labels of food. This initiative searches to stop misleading advertising on food products (making it appear that something came from one place while actually being from another like the French pastries I bought last week that after further inspection ended up being made in the Netherlands), and for those products to meet the environmental, health and labour standards to protect consumer health and the planet.

5 Things You Should Avoid After Eating for Better Health

After enjoying a hearty meal, it’s common to feel a bit sluggish. Many of us might even lie down to relax or watch TV. However, certain actions after eating can negatively impact our health. To help you maintain good digestion and overall well-being, here are five things you should avoid doing after a meal. Sleeping Right Away One of the most common mistakes people make is going to bed right…

Laios saying he's stronger and better organized than Shuro because he eats 3 meals every day and sleeps properly is probably one of the most encouraging things a fictional character has ever said to me

i want to take the time to talk about a series of disabilities that no one takes seriously or even recognizes as a disability, which is food intolerances, and allergies. if a person can get sick if they eat the wrong foods, they are disabled, as this illness will make them unable to function all because they ate the wrong food. it's not okay to guilt someone for seeking foods that won't injure them.

in 2022, i began to lose my ability to digest land meats (pork, chicken, cow, etc.), animal milks, and eggs. it started slowly but quickly progressed to every type of land meat. i am only able to digest seafood, plants, nuts, seeds safely without becoming horribly sick. i tried to buy cow's milk because it is cheaper recently and became so ill it was genuinely traumatic. i have never been that sick in my life before. i cannot safely ingest cow's milk, the cheaper option, because it will injure me for several days or even weeks at a time. this happens to me with all land meats as well.

i cannot eat eggs. i cannot fried rice that has egg, i cannot eat most sauces like mayo or ranch dressing because of their high egg content. i cannot eat anything dressed in mayo as a sauce. anything that is baked or brushed or washed with egg is a risk. my digestive system really hates eggs in particular and they are inescapable.

people who can't digest or process lactose, gluten, meats, seafood, eggs, nuts, seeds, beans, fiber, certain fats, proteins or sugars don't have their needs considered very often, nor taken seriously, especially when that person is poor. people with digestive issues need to be able to eat foods that don't hurt us- it's not our faults that alternative milks, breads, pizzas, snacks, sauces, dips, spreads, meats and more are significantly more expensive. we still need to be able to eat foods that don't harm us regardless of how much money we make.

MCAS update: since starting iron treatment with the aim to get my ferritin stores over 100 for migraine prevention, I’ve finally been able to raise my protein intake.

(Hey, did you guys know that while some MCAS patients present with abnormally high levels of ferritin, low ferritin can cause mast cells to degranulate? And mast cells store and release ferritin when they degranulate, so it’s like a shitty ouroboros of self-fulfilling misery? I didn’t. No one told me, the person with a mast cell disease and chronic lifelong anemia 🙃🙃🙃)

This is a big deal for me because even after years of treatment, this time last year I was living on 7-16g of protein a day because attempting to eat more than that was priming me for an anaphylactic reaction.

As of today, after 3 months of consistent iron treatment, I’m able to eat 50-60g a day.

Progress!!! 🎉
