Benefits of Naturopathy Treatments for Chronic Illnesses
Naturopathy is a holistic and natural approach to healing that focuses on using the body’s intrinsic ability to heal itself. This therapeutic method is especially beneficial for managing chronic illnesses like diabetes, arthritis, and hypertension. Here are the key benefits of naturopathy treatments for chronic conditions:
Holistic Treatment for Chronic Conditions Naturopathy addresses the root causes of chronic diseases, rather than just the symptoms. By considering physical, mental, and emotional well-being, it offers a complete approach to healing, promoting overall wellness.
Natural Remedies for Chronic Diseases Unlike conventional medicine, which often relies on pharmaceutical drugs, naturopathy uses natural remedies, such as herbal treatments, diet adjustments, and detox programs, to manage chronic illness symptoms.
Effective Management of Diabetes How naturopathy helps with diabetes involves balancing blood sugar levels through a combination of diet, exercise, and herbal supplements. It encourages a natural healing process, reducing the need for long-term medication.
Natural Ways to Manage Arthritis Chronic arthritis pain can be alleviated with non-invasive naturopathic solutions. Through natural therapies like joint massages, anti-inflammatory herbs, and personalized diet plans, naturopathy offers significant relief from arthritis pain.
Naturopathic Solutions for Hypertension Natural treatments for chronic illness symptoms, such as hypertension, include stress-reducing techniques like meditation, breathing exercises, and dietary changes that focus on reducing salt intake and improving heart health.
Chronic Pain Relief with Natural Methods Naturopathy offers chronic pain relief through natural therapies, such as acupuncture, hot/cold therapy, and yoga, to help reduce inflammation and improve circulation, offering sustainable relief from pain without relying on painkillers.
Detox and Wellness for Chronic Disease Management Detox programs play an important role in managing chronic illnesses. By eliminating toxins from the body, naturopathy supports the body’s natural detoxification processes, enhancing overall health and vitality.
Personalized Naturopathic Care Naturopathy emphasizes personalized care based on individual needs. Whether through diet, lifestyle changes, or specific treatments, it tailors solutions to the person’s unique health condition, ensuring optimal results.
Naturopathy treatments for chronic illnesses offer a comprehensive and effective way to manage health without relying solely on conventional medicine. For those looking for natural healing for chronic pain and a holistic stay resort experience, Fazlani Nature’s Nest provides an ideal wellness retreat in India to start your healing journey.
Explore the benefits of naturopathy therapy at Fazlani Nature’s Nest – an ayurvedic wellness centre designed to support holistic health and long-term wellness.

How can I loose weight?
I got you.
💗weightloss, diets and healthy habits💗
1. healthy habits
before we start, you want longterm process. So form habits. Become disciplined.
No crash-diet means no jojo-effect. No crash-diet means actual progress that doesnt go to waste.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
2. diet
No matter how much you move, if your diet is not sitting right, you wont slim down. Over time you have to include healthy and nutritious options into your diet.
~small bowl of veggies, before breakfast
(such as cucumber, bell pepper, carotts, tomatos. That way your bloodsugar levels wont come crushing down midday)
~breakfast should include something that keeps you full. Dont skip it. People who eat breakfast tend to loose more weight and be slimmer.
(Porride, Eggs, Avocado, etc)
I usually include: Oatmeal, Chia sees, Berries and one Banana
~try not to snack, keep going for three meals a day
~eat whole foods, eat clean and make sure to dont neglect your protein-intake
(protein keeps us full and satisfied. Also, you want to loose fat, not muscle)
~cut out sodas and liquid calories!!!
such a waste. go for the light options with 0-2kcal. They taste the same, if not better.
Also, drink enough water.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
3. workout
Normally, I work out every day in some way.
Cardio, strenght, pilates or just a walk outside.
Moving your body, keeping it toned and flexible, helps your mood, your health and your overall life.
On top, it burns calories.
Build some muscle and loose some fat. Thats how you get your dream body.
Here are my favorite channels, that I workout to daily:
MIZI (cardio mainly, full body workouts and burning calories)
Lidia Mera (pilates full body, toning and strenghtenig, legs, arms, abs)
Shirlyn Kim (specific parts, weightloss, strenghtening/toning,thigh gap)
Yuuka Sagawa (posture, arms and upper body)
Nina Dapper (arms, legs and abs)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
4. Beauty Secrets
~ginger/curcuma shots
I tend to have ginger shots to boost my immune system and overall health. They are also very good for your skin and can give you a natural glow.
~probiotics
Your gut health is a game changer. You get less break outs and you can loose weight faster.
You can heal your gut through your diet and order some probiotics.
~castor oil
I live and breath castor oil.
Usually I apply it before bed on my lashes, hair and skin. It helps with hair growth, skin protection and hydration. Its also very good for debloating and detox, if you put it into your belly button.
~green tea
This magic tea can help you loose weigtt, reduce the risk of several diseases, such as diabetes or heart disease,
It reduces anxiety and lowers your cholesterol level.

assorted pjo/hoo headcanons
part 1 - part 2
autistic!will. i mean. i was one of the first people to write it (and post it on ao3, but i had stuff about it on my long gone old blog before then). this is true. to me. it's not incredibly obvious unless you know what you're looking for because 99% of the time he's eloquent and very passionate and maybe it's just the hyper healer in him and he'd like to think he passes well. but for people who know they can just tell. it's the voice, man /gn. gives you away every time /lh
pots!hazel. she ends up (mostly!) recovering from the fainting episodes associated with her flashbacks but still faints and feels unwell a lot of the time. she spends a lot of her energy and magic on staying conscious and aware, leaving her foggy and with flare-ups. will ends up diagnosing her half-way on accident during the three days nico stays in the infirmary. she doesn't faint a lot, but she will frequently have her vision black out when she stands and feel nauseous if she has to stand still for more than ten minutes (more or less depending on the day). together with jason and nico the three of them make up the fainting trio
reyna speaks excessively formally and politely when she's uncomfortable and the moment she feels safe around you she will just loosen up completely. it becomes very clear very quickly how much of her time is spent being uncomfortable
genderfluid!lou ellen. most of the time she's happy to be referred to as a girl, but some days it just feels wrong and she prefers to be referred to either gender-neutrally or masculinely. it's not something she's out about to anyone but her closest friends, partially because there's kind of enough stigma around being the child of hecate and also, it's not all that obvious, even to her.
nico is a bit like a social interaction vampire. he's not as shut off as others seem to think, he just needs to be given explicit permission to talk about his interests because he's worried about annoying other people, especially after bianca essentially abandoned him. he could talk for hours and hours about his special interests (because yes, he's probably autistic too) like mythomagic (he picks it up again with percy's encouragement), ancient languages and literature
will and katie (gardner) friendship. they bond over liking star wars and when lou ellen join their circle she manipulates the mist to recreate scenes from the movies. as she gets better at it she manages to make the light sabers glow, much to will and katie's delight
after the battle of manhattan and will/kayla/austin almost dying from being overworked, the camp gets together with mr d and chiron without the apollo kids' knowledge and figure out how to run the infirmary in a more sustainable way than just forcing apollo and athena kids to be there. eventually they settle on apollo kids doing 8-hour shifts but none at night unless someone is severely wounded. for the night shift, other campers work in rotating pairs where one sleeps for the first four hours and the other for the last four hours. a lot more campers gain appreciation for the amount of work the apollo (and athena) cabin put in to keep them alive and healthy and the apollo cabin doesn't die of burnout
t1 diabetic!kayla. she's been sick with it since she was six, but thanks to having a very supportive dad and a team of professionals around him considering his status as an olympic archer, her condition is well-managed (most of the time, war time is unpredictable) and she knows how to treat and manage it considering her demigod lifestyle. accompanying headcanon to this: while ambrosia and nectar is mostly to heal injuries and wounds of a divine and/or serious nature, it can short-term manage blood sugar. mortal intervention is always needed to fix the problem though. a bit like how narcan delays but can't entirely fix an opioid overdose
cecil wasn't properly accepted as a child of hermes at first considering he didn't express exceptional skills at the more obvious and everyday traits associated with the cabin (multilingualism, athleticism, thievery). first when he was found to accidentally being an exceptional saboteur was he properly accepted by the rest of his siblings. due to this he tended to hang out with the unclaimed children in the hermes cabin rather than his own siblings, especially lou ellen
hjs!cecil (hypermobile joint syndrome; double-jointedness). he's not good with most physical activities because of this and easily discouraged to even attempt most sports due to how his cabin alienated him for not being exceptionally agile, a trait associated with their cabin. it's not uncommon for his wrists and ankles to not work well (such as the twisted ankle in boo). however, he feels like he "compensates" for this by working in the shadows. when properly encouraged and supported, he prefers fighting with knives (close combat or throwing), relying on being obnoxious to throw the enemy off

Scars of Your Survival Instinct in Birth Chart
Tumblr media
SURVIVAL INSTINCT MEANS...
Survival instinct is a natural response to imminent danger, where your body responds by triggering a fight, flight, or freeze response to keep you safe.
The fight response involves confronting the threat head-on, the flight response involves escaping or avoiding the threat, and the freeze response involves hoping that the threat will pass.
However, being in this state for prolonged periods due to trauma can have damaging effects on our physical and mental health.
HOW STRUGGLES OF CHILDHOOD MANIFEST HERE
When faced with difficult upbringing and authority figures, a child often learns to build a wall to protect him/herself from the world.
This protection mechanism acts as a behaviour of emotional unavailability, anger issues, passive aggression and depression.
Slowly, your body starts keeping count of your trauma which leads to major health issues like high blood pressure, heart illness, diabetes and more.
IN MEN
It can lead to a highly complex ego where you seek external validation through superficial status, short-lived relationships and a running away mentality. Also, an extremist mentality.
IN WOMEN
It can lead to a high inferiority complex where you people please or are hyper-independent, focus too much on external beauty and couldn't assert yourself. Also, a victimhood mentality.
IN YOUR NATAL BLUEPRINT
Your ancestors survived many calamities so that you can break the patterns of the sufferings you are carrying within. These patterns can manifest as...
HOUSE OF ARIES AND MARS
Whichever house Aries and Mars are located in, that house shapes the way you survive the most challenging battles and bullying.
HOUSE OF SCORPIO AND PLUTO
This house shapes the way you transform yourself after going through ego death. Shadow work here brings immense healing to your ancestry.
HOUSE OF CAPRICORN AND SATURN
Whichever house Cap and Saturn are located in, that house shapes the way you learn karmic lessons and channel ancestral gifts to achieve legacy.
SUN-SATURN ASPECT, SUN IN LIBRA/ AQUA
This aspect makes you learn lessons about your identity, soul and heal inner criticism.
MARS-SATURN ASPECT, SAT IN ARIES
This aspect makes you learn lessons about your assertiveness and how you show up. A prominent survival instinct that needs nurturing and stability.
MOON IN SCORPIO, VIRGO, CAP, AQUARIUS
This aspect makes you close your heart space due to difficult childhood. Your healing begins when you prioritise self-care and emotional consciousness.
MOON-SATURN ASPECT, SAT IN 4TH HOUSE
This aspect makes you learn lessons about your emotional boundaries, home life and ancestry. Here, you heal by redefining what home/ family is.
PLUTO-MARS ASPECT, MARS IN 8TH HOUSE
This aspect makes you hyper-aware of the energies around you. Trusting your intuition is needed here.
VENUS-SATURN ASPECT, SAT IN 7TH HOUSE
This aspect makes you isolated from partnerships (business or love). This is also an indication to not repeat parental patterns within your relationship.
VENUS-PLUTO ASPECT, VENUS IN 8TH HOUSE
This aspect asks you to heal patterns around power struggles, abuse, finance, ancestry and intimacy.
VENUS-NEPTUNE ASPECT, VEN IN 12TH HOUSE
This aspect makes you learn about the importance of boundaries and not justifying destructive habits, especially within partnerships.
HOW YOU THRIVE INSTEAD OF SURVIVE
Practice cognitive reframing by challenging negative thoughts and replacing them with more positive and realistic ones. Set realistic goals.
Engage in activities that promote relaxation and stress reduction. This can include deep breathing exercises, therapy or mindfulness techniques.
Be gentle with yourself throughout the healing process. Understand that it takes time to recover from a prolonged state of survival instinct

You must water yourself and feed the tissues in your body with the light from your thoughts, perceptions, nutrition, to the things you watch, listen to, and read. This doesn't mean that you try to escape the tragedies of the external world. It does mean that you understand that your body responds to your own love and care more than anything else. Daily care and aftercare are essential during times of war and peace. As we sit with the paradox and nuance of being human and our predatory animal nature to take, pillage, and harm, we must show up for it all, including caring for our bodies. Your body responds to your daydreams, thoughts, and touch. When you touch your body, let your heart be as light as a feather...as much as possible. The light in your hands sculpt, shape, and heal your body. I told my friend the other day that my breasts sit up the way that they at 47 years old because of how much love I have given them over the last 15 years, how much I take time and care with my body, how often I lay back and just listen. So many of us with breasts carry burdens in our bodies year after year. God needs us to transmute all the shame, tension, anger, repression, embarrassment, and fear so that we can access more of our divine nature to help evolve this world by channeling raw and uncommon solutions.
Because if the voting and marching were working, we would be not be where we are in the world today. I still bow to my sisters and brothers who are on the front lines. But what I also know to be true is that we must take time to detox in order to recalibrate the hate, repression, shame, and war living in our epigenetic line that continue to create war in our bodies--the diabetes, cancer, chronic jealousy, womb aches, breasts ache, lack of sensation, and lack of full-body orgasms, and also the molestation and scarcity in the family line. These entities. We can't continue to "take in" and not let out.
Bringing More Love to Your body Changes the World Around You and Opens Up More Pathways to Love and Loving
When you live "spirituality" as a lifestyle, more of your DNA unlocks open. When there is high emotion in the collective, I transfer that energy into self-care--bathing, skin care, making good food, listening to good music, resting and caring for who and what is around me. I made a bone broth chicken soup and brought some to my massage therapist. I know what's happening in the world but I'm not constantly attuned to it in the 3D, meme after meme, news story after news story. I'm living life that around me and praying for those who are fighting for their actual lives. I do not take for granted what it means to have more freedom.
Shifting my focus in various ways over the years has kept my body more nourished and youthful than what it would have been otherwise. I priortise sweating often, lik in a dry Finnish sauna, wet sauna, or sweating while working out in high intensity classes. I have no goal to stay younger-looking. I love being grown AF. It is merely what naturally happens when we take care ourselves (our cells) and release, release, release. When we release, our tissues let go and bodies respond favorably. Our care creates the conditions that allow our bodies to flourish in ways in which we beautifully and radiantly age, but we don't age as quickly. -India Ame'ye, Author

Tumblr media
Dandelion has been used for centuries in traditional medicine due to its numerous health benefits. Here are five key ways dandelion heals:
1. *Liver and Kidney Support*: Dandelion acts as a natural diuretic, flushing toxins from the liver and kidneys, and its antioxidants protect the liver from inflammation and oxidative stress.
2. *Nutrient-Rich Superfood*: Dandelion greens are packed with vitamins A, C, and K, and essential minerals like calcium, iron, and potassium, supporting immune health, bone strength, and overall wellness.
3. *Digestive Aid*: Bitter compounds in dandelion greens stimulate digestion, promote a healthy gut, and alleviate indigestion, bloating, and constipation.
4. *Anti-Inflammatory Properties*: Bioactive compounds like polyphenols and flavonoids in dandelions reduce inflammation, potentially easing symptoms of arthritis and other inflammatory conditions.
5. *Blood Sugar Regulation*: Dandelions may help regulate blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity, benefiting those with diabetes or at risk of developing the condition.
To harness dandelion's healing potential, you can consume it in various ways, such as:
- Adding fresh greens to salads
- Drinking dandelion tea
- Blending greens into smoothies
- Taking supplements (after consulting a healthcare provider)
Remember to start with small amounts and consult a healthcare provider if you have allergies or are pregnant/breastfeeding.

Notes for Outer Wilds World-Building
-head canon heavy, but grounded in reason I think-
Healthcare: Lots of treating symptoms but not a ton of fixing the thing that caused the initial problem as the Hearthian body is remarkably sturdy and when self-healing can't take care of it, it would take some advanced healthcare to fix it (ex. punctured lung, strong infection). And that's not always something the Hearthians have, as why would they put a ton of effort into advanced pharmaceuticals like penicillin and invasive internal surgeries when it's so rare that someone gets hurt to that point and doesn't immediately die from it in a matter of days? I picture most medicine is herbal in nature, plant-derived and highly concentrated if necessary, such as opioids/morphine for pain that can be taken by injection until you get home and can patch yourself up. Bandages and bed rest and going off of what's taught to you (with a dose of improvising) are key to Hearthian healthcare. For the Hearthians, it's less unwillingness to help in cases of disability and more not being sure how, as the tech to do so would need to be jury-rigged or made from scratch. How well this helps varies as some things like missing limbs and damaged hearing can be accounted for but things like malfunctioning kidneys can't. Ironically, diabetes would spell bad news for a Hearthian.
Food: They don't have birds on Timber Hearth or else we'd see a lot more primitive wings for flying, so that means the animal life differs from earth. Lots of bugs and amphibians and fish, but very few mammals if any as fur is weird to the Hearthians. Hearthians are likely omnivores, given their history, but no trapping of land animals beyond insects. I imagine mostly teams of gatherers picking food from known locations and being careful about how much they take, and maybe some "controlled burnings" to clear out unwanted brush and give room to grow for the plants they actually want. The burnings may be more of an accident but the effect is the same regardless. Berries, nuts (especially pine nuts), cattail tubers and pith, water reed shoots, edible wild greens, and bread made from the flour of ground up tubers/acorns/pine nuts is common. This is supplemented by fish, the fat of which (Google candle fish) and the gelatin formed by boiling their bones are also used in many things. Marshmallows are made the old way, from mallow roots and sugar cane. Snow covered in sap or molasses is a treat, made more common with the invention of rockets that let you grab snow and fly it back to the village before it melts. Chera (borrowed from the fandom) is a tough, fibrous fruit that is sort of bready and is used much like apples are as a thickener in bread and eaten as mash on its own. Pickling, smoking, and canning are very common in Hearthian culture and are key ways of preserving food for when certain key gathered plants are out of season. During the insect mating season when the flies are out in full force, people will smack the clouds of bugs with sap-covered sheets of metal, scrape the bugs off, and grill them up into patties like burgers. This time of year is all hands on deck and not everyone likes eating fly patties but as food, it's incredibly nutritious and ground up flies are sometimes added to food that is lacking. Cooking is communal for the bulk of it, with a town cook pot and storehouse being open to the public to pull from, but if you want to eat beyond standard hours or mass-produced fare, you're on your own and you best hope you know how to cook over a wood fire stove. Filling the communal food pot is often a job foisted on hatchlings and the elders supervise. Specialty foods like sap wine are a trade item or are saved for celebrations and traditions.
Travel: Hearthians don't have wheeled carts as getting things into their crater via wheeled cart would be difficult at best. Instead they'll drag chopped down trees where they need to go via sleds or float them on the rivers or lower them into the crater with elevators. Anything else they'll carry down personally. To get around the planet, Hearthians just walk and if it takes more than a day, they camp along the way. Now that ships are a thing however, travel has shrunk the world by a lot- not that it does the average Hearthian much good. The ships are dangerous, prone to causing fires if one tries to land on Timber Hearth proper as rockets plus grass equals bad. A skilled pilot can pick a decent landing spot that's damp or barren enough to not be a problem, but it's usually so far from where you want to go that it's better to walk anyway. Said average Hearthians also do not like dealing with g-forces or potential death. Those are the only reasons why it's not normal for astronauts to ferry average Hearthians around like a taxi service or to take materials from point A to point B across the planet. None of this matters on the Attlerock however, as there's nothing to catch fire there, so ships will haul stuff up there all the time at Esker and Hornfels' behest. Rocket fuel is made from flammable gases pumped up from underground by the mining equipment as waste. It used to be released into the atmosphere to keep the miners from suffocating or exploding (a problem, sometimes those spouts would catch alight) but Slate had the bright idea of storing it in tanks under pressure. They already had pressurized air for the miners at the deepest depths to breathe where air was hard to come by, why couldn't they bottle up the waste gases to dispose of more safely? Like burning it elsewhere?
Clothing: Fabric is made from the fibers of a linen-like plant called flush, names for the purplish hue at the base of the reed's stem. The weavers' house is filled with Hearthians whose job it is to separate the fibers out and spin them into thread. From there, the weaver in charge of the loom will dye the thread with plant-based dyes and use a flying loom to quickly weave bolts of fabric. It takes a LOT of thread to make fabric but thanks to the weavers' bugging Slate into making them into a machine running off water power, the thread-making time has been cut down significantly. However, the whole process still takes a while so most Hearthians only own a few pieces of clothing and they're expected to patch it, hand-me-down it, and wash it until it is literally in rags before they get more. Hatchlings get the worst of it, they get pretty much nothing but hand-me-down clothes as they outgrow things too fast for unique outfits for each of them. Scarves, hats, and handkerchiefs are an exception and are often the only piece of clothing a hatchling has that survives to adulthood, which makes them all the more precious. Dresses- which take more fabric- and anything patterned or multicolored is a sign of indulgence/finery or a very nice gift and is such relegated to fancy clothes for fine events. Shoes are made of fish leather or treated fabric strips wrapped around a wood sole and structure and then sewn in place.
Economy: Hearthians run on a trade economy, with every person expected to contribute in some way. You are always guaranteed food from the communal cook pot and shelter in either a house of your own or on someone else's couch/floor, but beyond that you get side-eyed if you ask for things too often without offering something in return. Fortunately, Hearthians have a strong oral tradition and a very relaxed (boring) lifestyle so most are happy to trade gossip and stories for basic amenities. Building houses, weaving fabric, gathering food, working in the mines, and watching the hatchlings and tasks like those are ones that are never required for people to do, you can walk off and take a break whenever. However, it's seen as poor taste to do that for more than a few days at a time without cause because if you aren't working, you're letting your fellow Hearthians down. If you can't do big work for health reasons or lack of skill, you're expected to pick up small work like knitting, patching things up, cooking at the communal food pot, etc. What most hatchlings end up doing is they either find a passion and just continue with it into a proper "job" that helps the village in some way, they get an apprenticeship, or they get picked up by an adult and pretty much conscripted in order to "keep them out of trouble." Fire watch and astronaut and jobs like it are jobs of high prestige and are very demanding in the body, and as such run as apprenticeships with Gossan and Tektite selecting who they want to teach from those that come up to them and ask to learn. Such jobs don't do much to physically help the village (beyond bringing back space relics but those aren't always useful to the village at large) but they do bring in a ton of interesting stories and those are prime currency for the Hearthians.
Life Cycle: Hearthians are hermaphrodites that breed like fish do- during certain times of year, Hearthians may feel the urge to slip down to the river and release sperm and eggs into the water. Couples can go together, but most don't make much of it, seeing them as temporary dalliances or choosing to put up with being a little hot and itchy for a few days, refusing to go, and then the season is done for them for the year. The sperm and eggs mingle in warm underground pools and incubate there until they get hard and heavy enough to be picked up by the current. Due to how the waters of Timber Hearth run, the eggs more or less end up being carried to the same place every year where Hearthians in charge of raising hatchlings go to pick them up. The eggs are candled to check for life, then swaddled and placed into cribs to hatch. Hatchlings are raised in batches together in the Hatchling House, with sick ones quarantined in a back room to keep the rest from getting ill (so things like measles don't wipe out a whole generation). Hatchlings are fed mash until their baby teeth fall out, then they are fed real food like fish with bones in it. They only are named when the caretaker is sure that they will survive their first month or three of life, then they are introduced to the village by that name. They are allowed to go outside for the first time once they can walk and talk a little bit, an occasion marked by giving them shoes. After that, a hatchling may leave the Hatchling House to live on their own once they have a place to stay lined up, work, and they either can drink sap wine (which hatchlings don't have the enzymes to digest) or meet a certain height. As Hearthians age, the ears droop more, the skin pales, and the body starts failing. Past a certain age a Hearthian just kinda stops healing, as if all their sturdiness is limited to their younger years, and if they survive past even that, then their mind begins to go. Deaths are grieved and the dead buried with song and music being played with a space being left in the song for the deceased to "play a solo" and the rest of the band picking up after as a reminder that life goes on. In a few rare cases, hatchlings can imprint on an adult and vice versa, which gives rise to more "standard" parent child bonds and frequently, apprenticeships.
Calendar: The Hearthian planet does have seasons, sort of, but mostly a "hot and dry" vs "cool and wet" divide. No snow, their winters are just slightly more rain than usual and their summers are slightly warmer and with a chance for thunderstorms. However, there are still holidays involved with the changing of the seasons, mostly tied to when food is more or less available and when the solstices are. The alignment of the planets is also celebrated but that's a more recent celebration that popped up and it intensified into a major holiday only when the observatory got built with its ability to lock down alignments to exact dates. Breeding season is an informal holiday, being a few days in Spring and Autumn where sap wine is plentiful and people are expected to take some time off from work to relax. Hearthian formal holidays involve getting everyone in the village to sing, dance, and play music together around a bonfire. Stories and sap wine flow thick and fast and the best storytellers and musicians are treated to the best food and treats. Musicians will sometimes "duel" for funsies to see who is better at improvising and technical skills, to the joy of the crowd. Informal celebrations, like when an astronaut launches for the first time or one comes home or a batch of hatchlings are given a name on their name day lead to similar events, just scaled down some with only non-busy people attending. However, Hearthians love a good party so many will make time for such gatherings if they can.

How can I help my Time Lady roommate track her artron levels? What can be done to raise or lower artron levels?
Ah, glad to hear of her settled on Earth! I hope you and her will find the following information useful:
How to track and manage artron levels?
🔬 Tracking Artron Levels
If your roommate brought with her from Gallifrey a specialised artron/lindos blood tester, she would be able to test her own levels of artron, much like a diabetic finger-prick check. For reference, levels of artron should be between around 9,000-12,000 mcl for an average Time Lord adult and levels outside of this range could indicate an underlying issue.
Otherwise, an indication in the fluctuation of artron levels are very much symptom-indicated:
👩‍🔬 Artron Deficiency (Hypoartronosis)
Symptoms of hypoartronosis could include (but are not limited to):
Impaired Healing: Slower wound healing and increased susceptibility to wound infections, potentially leading to secondary haemophilia (severely reduced ability to clot blood).
Weak Immune Response: More frequent illnesses due to the weakened state of the immune system.
Lack of Energy: Lower levels of artron result in fatigue or sluggishness.
Decreased Senses: Less sharpness in hearing, sight, smell, taste, touch, somatic and chronopsionic (time and psychic).
Low Mood: Low artron can affect emotional state, causing the Gallifreyan to have persistently low moods.
Very Red Blood: Gallifreyan blood has an orange tint to it due to the artron. If it's very, very red, this indicates low artron levels.
Urine Changes: Urine output will decrease and will be more yellow in colour (normal Gallifreyan urine is more orange).
🔋Artron Excess (Hyperartronosis)
Symptoms of hyperartronosis could include (but are not limited to):
Hyperactivity or Irritability: Heightened energy or emotional fluctuations, similar to bipolar disorder.
Delusions or Confusion: Reduced cognitive clarity.
Vomiting or Nausea: Gastrointestinal discomfort.
Increased Appetite: Unusually frequent hunger pangs.
Urine changes: Urine output will increase severely and be extremely orange.
🔄 Normalising Artron Levels
Artron levels will normally stabilise over time due to homeostasis and compensatory mechanisms, though several home remedies can help.
TARDIS Partnership: Forming a bond with a TARDIS will naturally help to maintain good artron levels through constant energy exchange.
TARDIS Support: In addition to a TARDIS connection, spending a few days in a bonded TARDIS can help to normalise levels.
Meditation: Meditation techniques are also considered effective in the treatment of these conditions.
(To Increase Levels) Do Some Time Travel: Absorbing background radiation from the time vortex increases artron and can be an effective and quick solution to hypoartronosis.
(To Decrease Levels) Expelling Energy: Expelling excess energy through the mouth or skin will help to lower levels. However, this should be done in a controlled environment and away from humans.
In some cases, medical intervention could be required:
Artron therapy: There are several medical devices and medications on Gallifrey which are regularly used in the treatment of these conditions.
Assisted healing coma: A healing coma can help to stabilise artron levels. However, this should be done in a safe environment with medical professionals who can assist in the sleep-wake cycle.
Regeneration: In extreme cases, a Gallifreyan medic may suggest a regeneration, as this resets artron back to default levels. However, this should never be done without consultation, as there are usually simpler ways to treat hypo and hyperartronosis.
🏫 So ...
Any excessive or prolonged changes in artron levels should be investigated further as they may be caused by other conditions. If you or your roommate are particularly worried about her artron levels, please encourage returning to Gallifrey for a checkup with a Gallifreyan medical professional as soon as possible, as there is currently no medical centre in the Sol system.

Sugar Defender Blood Sugar Control for Pre-Diabetics
Tumblr media
Sugar Defender Review: A Comprehensive Guide to Blood Sugar Control for Pre-Diabetics In today’s fast-paced world, managing blood sugar levels has become a top priority, especially for those with pre-diabetes. One product that has recently gained attention for its potential in helping individuals regulate their blood sugar is Sugar Defender. Marketed as a natural supplement that helps support blood sugar control, Sugar Defender promises to be a game-changer for pre-diabetics looking for an effective solution.
Author Choice: Visit Official Website For Sugar Defender🤎💜🤎
But does it live up to the hype? In this detailed review, we will explore everything you need to know about Sugar Defender, from its ingredients and benefits to potential side effects and user reviews.
What is Sugar Defender? Sugar Defender is a dietary supplement specifically designed to help people struggling with blood sugar management. Formulated with a blend of natural ingredients, Sugar Defender aims to improve insulin sensitivity, reduce blood sugar spikes, and support overall metabolic health. This supplement targets individuals who are pre-diabetic or at risk of developing diabetes, providing a natural way to manage their condition.
The creators of Sugar Defender claim that regular use can help keep blood sugar levels within a healthy range, particularly for those experiencing insulin resistance or struggling with dietary control. With its easy-to-use capsule form, Sugar Defender is designed to be a convenient addition to your daily routine.
Author Choice: Visit Official Website For Sugar Defender🤎💜🤎
How Does Sugar Defender Work? Sugar Defender works by addressing the underlying causes of blood sugar imbalances, focusing on two primary mechanisms:
Improving Insulin Sensitivity One of the key factors in pre-diabetes is insulin resistance, where your body doesn't use insulin efficiently. Sugar Defender’s blend of natural ingredients works to enhance the sensitivity of your cells to insulin, allowing for better glucose uptake and less glucose buildup in the bloodstream.
Reducing Post-Meal Blood Sugar Spikes Post-meal blood sugar spikes are a common concern for pre-diabetics. Sugar Defender is formulated to slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates, which leads to more stable blood sugar levels after eating. By maintaining a consistent blood sugar level throughout the day, it helps prevent those energy crashes and cravings that can make blood sugar control so challenging.
Key Ingredients of Sugar Defender The effectiveness of Sugar Defender largely depends on its natural, scientifically-backed ingredients. Here’s a closer look at the core components that make it a promising solution for blood sugar control:
Author Choice: Visit Official Website For Sugar Defender🤎💜🤎
Berberine Berberine is a plant-based compound that has been extensively studied for its ability to lower blood sugar levels. It activates an enzyme called AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which plays a role in regulating glucose uptake and fat metabolism. Studies show that berberine can improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar, making it a valuable ingredient for pre-diabetics.
Chromium Picolinate Chromium is an essential mineral that helps your body process carbohydrates and lipids more efficiently. It enhances the action of insulin and has been shown to lower blood glucose levels in individuals with insulin resistance. Chromium also plays a role in reducing sugar cravings, which can help individuals maintain a healthier diet.
Cinnamon Extract Cinnamon is a popular spice known for its ability to help lower blood sugar levels. It works by mimicking the effects of insulin, improving glucose uptake by the cells. Additionally, cinnamon slows the breakdown of carbohydrates in the digestive tract, which helps reduce post-meal blood sugar spikes.
Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA) Alpha-lipoic acid is a powerful antioxidant that supports metabolic health by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress. ALA has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity, lower fasting blood sugar, and reduce nerve damage in people with diabetes or pre-diabetes. It also helps convert glucose into energy more efficiently, reducing blood sugar levels.

Bitter Melon Bitter melon is a tropical fruit that contains active compounds known to mimic insulin's effects on the body. It has been traditionally used in many cultures to manage blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity. Research shows that bitter melon can help reduce fasting blood sugar and improve glucose tolerance.
The Benefits of Using Sugar Defender Sugar Defender offers several benefits, especially for individuals managing pre-diabetes or aiming to prevent blood sugar imbalances. Here’s a look at some of the key benefits:
Regulated Blood Sugar Levels The primary benefit of Sugar Defender is its ability to maintain healthy blood sugar levels. By improving insulin sensitivity and preventing sharp spikes in blood glucose after meals, Sugar Defender helps stabilize blood sugar throughout the day, reducing the risk of complications associated with uncontrolled blood sugar.
Improved Insulin Sensitivity For those dealing with insulin resistance, Sugar Defender works to improve your body’s response to insulin, making it easier for glucose to be used for energy rather than stored as fat. This results in lower fasting blood sugar levels and better long-term management of pre-diabetes.
Natural Ingredients with Minimal Side Effects One of the standout features of Sugar Defender is its use of all-natural ingredients. Since it is free from synthetic additives and chemicals, it’s less likely to cause side effects compared to conventional medications. This makes it a safer option for long-term use.

Enhanced Energy Levels When your blood sugar levels are balanced, your body can use glucose more efficiently for energy. Many users of Sugar Defender report increased energy levels throughout the day, along with improved mental clarity and focus.
Appetite Control and Reduced Cravings The combination of chromium and cinnamon in Sugar Defender helps reduce sugar cravings and control appetite. This makes it easier to stick to a healthier diet, further supporting weight management and blood sugar control.
Potential Side Effects of Sugar Defender Although Sugar Defender is made from natural ingredients, it’s essential to be aware of potential side effects. Some users may experience:
Digestive discomfort, such as bloating or gas, especially when first starting the supplement Mild headaches or dizziness due to fluctuations in blood sugar levels Allergic reactions to specific ingredients, though this is rare As always, it’s a good idea to consult your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking medication for diabetes.
How to Use Sugar Defender for Optimal Results To get the best results from Sugar Defender, it’s crucial to follow the recommended dosage and incorporate it into a healthy lifestyle. Here’s how to use it effectively:

The Role of Medicine, Nutrition, Mental Relaxation, and Exercise in Disease Management
In today’s fast-paced world, many people look to medicine as the primary solution for curing diseases. While medication plays a vital role, it is crucial to understand that medicine alone is not the ultimate solution to achieving optimal health. In fact, it contributes only a small percentage to overall disease management and recovery. The holistic approach to health involves a combination of good nutrition, mental relaxation, and regular physical activity, which together make a significant impact on disease prevention and cure.
The Importance of Good Nutrition
"Let food be thy medicine" is an ancient saying that holds true even today. A well-balanced diet rich in essential nutrients is one of the key pillars of good health. Proper nutrition supports the body’s natural healing process, boosts the immune system, and helps prevent chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and obesity. Whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats provide the body with the necessary vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to function efficiently and combat illness.
Mental Relaxation and Stress Management
Mental well-being plays a crucial role in disease prevention and recovery. Chronic stress, anxiety, and mental exhaustion can severely impact the immune system and lead to a range of health problems, including high blood pressure, heart disease, and even depression. Incorporating practices such as meditation, mindfulness, and deep breathing exercises can greatly enhance mental relaxation, reduce stress levels, and improve overall mental health. A calm mind is a powerful tool in maintaining good health and accelerating recovery from illness.
The Power of Exercise
Physical activity is another essential component of a healthy lifestyle. Exercise not only strengthens muscles and improves cardiovascular health but also helps regulate blood sugar levels, reduce inflammation, and promote mental clarity. Regular exercise enhances the body’s ability to fight off diseases and improves overall longevity. Whether it's a brisk walk, yoga, or strength training, integrating daily physical activity can drastically reduce the risk of chronic illnesses and contribute to faster recovery times.
The Limited Role of Medicine
Medicine certainly has its place in treating and managing diseases, particularly in acute conditions or infections where immediate intervention is necessary. However, in the grand scheme of health and disease control, its impact is often limited compared to the long-term benefits of lifestyle changes. Medicine generally treats symptoms and manages conditions but does not address the root cause of many chronic illnesses, which are often tied to poor diet, stress, and lack of exercise. Thus, medicine may only account for a small percentage of the overall approach to disease management.
Conclusion
While medicine is undoubtedly important, a comprehensive approach to health that includes good nutrition, mental relaxation, and regular exercise is far more effective in controlling and preventing diseases. By prioritizing these aspects of your lifestyle, you take control of your health in a more sustainable and holistic way. Remember, true wellness is achieved when the body, mind, and spirit are in balance.

I really wish I wouldn’t get told that a decision I make is wrong due to common beliefs that have not been deeply researched.
I recently went on a mostly fruit diet with no animal products because I want to heal my rosacea, which I discovered is linked to many autoimmune diseases, one of the most prevalent in my family is type 2 diabetes.
Upon doing research about skin problems and why they manifest, I came across information about the kidneys and poor filtration through the liver which leads to waste being taken out on the skin if your organs are not working together to remove the waste normally.
I did my research to understand what could work to finally heal my rosacea since it is so deeply misunderstood and judged. All my life I’ve been criticized because of it until I got older and stopped caring so much. But more than just aesthetic purposes, I want to heal my body from the inside out and it causes so much anger for me at times when I open up about these choices I’m making to better myself and I get told I’m not consuming enough protein or that I need to eat meat or eggs or whatever it may be that common media shares.
Our biology closely resembles frugivores, not carnivores. The only way we “safely” consume meat and animal products is by cooking, pasteurizing, or doing some sort of process to make it edible. That, to me, doesn’t make any sense. We get told to eat fruits and vegetables when we’re sick because they heal so wouldn’t it make sense to consume food we know to be healing most of the time?
How can we use it as medicine and then turn around and say “oh you can’t eat too much fruit because of the sugar” as if simple fruit sugar is equivalent to processed refined sugar… also, all our cells need sugar. Our body runs on glucose… which is sugar. Literally everything we consume gets transformed into glucose. Insulin gets released into the bloodstream to help transport glucose to our organs so we have energy and can function. So even foods that are low in sugar get turned into glucose… which again, is sugar. Processed sugar, like any processed food, is bad for you. It is not the same as eating raw fruit - the food the Earth created for us to consume. (Is it really that surprising that the food we can naturally consume is the most healing food for us? It’s almost as if our biology, which resembles frugivores in nature, is made for the consumptions of fruits. Amazing.)
This whole idea that protein is everything was not emphasized until the last 1000 years or so. Protein was not emphasized as the most important source of sustenance for all time. Fruits and vegetables were. There are entire cultures that thrive off of fruits and vegetables and do not struggle with the same level of disease as we do.
It’s so annoying that veganism or any sort of diet with a strong focus on fruits and vegetables gets criticized so much. I’m not pushing my choices on anyone and I wish their choices didn’t get pushed on me, especially coming from people who are currently struggling with health issues and are trying multiple protocols that are not working. It doesn’t make sense to take advice from someone else who is trying to figure it out and is not succeeding yet I’m being criticized personally for taking advice from sources who have healed themselves and others.
No one will know my body better than me. I have tried to get assistance from doctors and dermatologists. None of them have helped. Some have even made things worse by giving me medications that suppressed my symptoms for a few weeks only for them to come back stronger and then I got prescribed a more intense medication with tons of side effects. If I cannot trust in myself and intuitively listen to my body, then I will never heal. My body is my own. My choices are my own. Feel free to judge them when I am not around but keep your negativity to yourself. I’ve only being doing this for two days and I feel so much better, my digestion is better, and my rosacea is not flaring up. That cannot be a coincidence. Please stop listening to mass media and do your own research to heal your body and mind.

Back in October of 2023, my mother faced an unexpected heart attack and developed pneumonia leaving her in the hospital for nearly 2 weeks. Since then, she has been diagnosed with heart failure. has been in and out of the hospital and has been battling ways to help her heart along with other health issues she had prior such as diabetes.
My mother ended her full time position as a para educator right before Christmas of 2023 due to the difficulties from breathing, to energy, illness and more all linked to her heart failure. With the decision of going part time as a substitute to focus on her health, she now faces the mounting medical expenses for her doctor appointments, medications and soon to be surgery for her heart and health.
Many of you know Leona as more than just an educator; she's a friend, a mentor, and a source of inspiration. Her warm smile and compassionate nature have touched the lives of everyone fortunate enough to cross her path.
As we rally together to raise funds for my mother's medical expenses, we invite you to join us in giving back to someone who has given so much. Your generosity will help cover the costs of crucial treatments, medications, and ongoing medical care, providing her with the support she needs to face this health challenge head-on.
Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a significant impact on Leona's journey to recovery. Let's come together as a community to surround her with the love and financial assistance she needs during this difficult time.
Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and for being a part of my mother's support network. Together, we can make a difference and help her heal.
With heartfelt gratitude on our terms,
Teri and the Underhill family.

Your OCs stumble upon an unmarked vial in their pocket one day. It's full of swirling purple liquid, a magical potion of some kind, but they don't know what it does. Unbeknownst to them, drinking the potion will instantly transform them into their ideal physical appearance (instant painless gender-affirming care, a healthy end to any body dysmorphia or chronic pain/fatigue, hell someone could be a fucking dragon if that's how they ideally view themself). Note that it transforms them into their ideal self, not society's expectations of them - if they're completely happy with who they are, the potion does nothing.
Who takes the risk? Who tries to figure out what the potion is before drinking it? Who doesn't drink it at all?
Siv: After getting it identified through her network of contacts, she takes the potion. What it does is lighten all her scars from being captured by Director Hawke, heal up the permanent damage from her inital fight with Eobard, and make her a few inches taller.
Jay: Hands it to Cassandra to identify, since he's pretty sure it's magic. It gives him instant gender affirmation, and heals the nerve damage in his legs and body.
Hailey: Gets it identified via Cassandra, then decides to take it. What it does is restore her physical body and mortality while allowing her to retain the powers that being dead gave her.
Cassandra: Before her arm was forcibly removed to save her own life? She thinks she's hot stuff. She doesn't need it. After it, however, she'd take it, to restore the skills she had to relearn and the dexterity she lost with her arm.
Arya: Is a shapeshifter, so they don't need it. Instead, they slip it into their coworker's coffee, whom they know is a furry. Have fun being a 7-foot-tall husky with G cups, sir.
Esme: Assumes it's alcohol, drinks it, and immediately is cured of her body dysmorphia, alcoholism, and the damage that the use of drugs and alcohol has had on her body.
Gina: Assumes that someone tried to slip her drugs, so she throws it out.
Ember: Decides to take it, since they assume it's just a little gift from the bartender at their club. Ember gets a more androgynous body, and some of the more visible signs of his age fade a bit.
Cat: Gets it identified online by some witches on the dark web, but chooses not to consume it. She's pretty happy with her body, so instead she sells it online to the highest bidder.
Max: Doesn't touch it. He assumes it's poison or drugs or something.
Kyle: Gets it identified, and chooses not to take it. He's pretty happy with his body.
Eric: Identifies the potion almost immediately, and takes it. It gives him instant gender-affirming care, and also gives him back his natural black hair rather than the silvery-white that it turned after overusing his magic.
Jacob: Identifies the potion almost instantly. He's pretty happy with his body, so he doesn't take it.
Khalil: Identifies the potion with just a glance, and doesn't take it. He's happy with his appearance.
Antonio: Immediately recognizes it as a potion. He drinks it, and it instantly cures him of his diabetes, makes his voice finally drop all the way instead of cracking constantly, and clears his acne.
Rania: Identifies the potion using the power of science, and chooses to take it as an experiment. All it does is slight fade the effects of aging on her, and remove some scars from science experiments that quite literally blew up in her face.
Ameerah: Gets it identified, and chooses to take it. The only thing that changes is that her hair becomes a slightly darker shade than her natural blonde, because she's honestly pretty sick of people seeing her with blonde textured hair and fair skin and instantly asking her if she has albinism (she does not, she's just biracial, and she's sick of the question)
Reggie: Recognizes the potion since xe and xer entire mom's side of the family are witches, and she takes it. It gives xem a more androgynous body, closer to how xe sees xemself in xer head, and changes the shape of her vitiligo marks to be little hearts and stars because xe's like that.
Meredith: Researches and tests the potion out first, then chooses to take it. It fixes her bad vision, and while it doesn't fix her deafness, since Meredith is pretty okay with being deaf, it does give her the ability to read lips perfectly.
Director Hawke: Doesn't take it, since she thinks she's major hot stuff (I mean, she's not wrong tho, we love ourselves an evil MILF)
Kelsie: Takes the potion, which gives her instant gender affirmation, and also fixes her damaged hair and that one tooth she broke running on the pool deck when she was 10.
Cory: Takes the potion without even checking what it is, and becomes quite literally the "fuck yeah" dragon from the meme.
Torryn: Once he identifies the potion, he takes it. It instantaneously gives them a more androgynous body, and also changes their singular glowing blue eye to a softer, more natural blue, so it just looks like normal heterochromia rather than magic, that way he no longer has to wear an eyepatch in public.
Onnie: Once she has it identified, they choose to take it, believing that it will make them even more powerful and godlike. Instead, it completely cuts them off from the Negative Speed Force, giving her the body of a normal human. This, obviously, is something that she really needs to work through.
Pippa: It's taken a lot of work for her to love herself in her body, but she chooses to take it anyway. Surprisingly, it doesn't change anything about her, except for the fact that it softens the way that she sees herself in the mirror, so she feels less insecure.
Jessi: It turns her into an absolute sex symbol. She was already incredibly hot, but it just alters her enough so she perfectly fits the beauty standards. Have fun in 10 years when said beauty standards change, Jessi.
Hyun-Ki: Doesn't take the potion. He's happy as he is.
Liah: Despite her expecting that the potion will make her appear less intimidating, since that's her biggest insecurity, it actually makes her slightly taller and more muscular, since she actually really likes the way she looks, it's more other peoples' reactions that she dislikes.
Marie: After analyzing the potion in her lab, she chooses to take it. To her surprise, it doesn't really change her appearance much at all, despite her various insecurities, which mostly come from other people instead of herself. All it does is slightly change the shapes of her cybernetics, so they're more artistic than utilitarian.
Qiara: Decides to take it as an experiment, despite the fact that she could take whatever form she chose to. The potion removes the weakness and chronic fatigue and pain that come with use of her powers, so she doesn't have to constantly choose between helping people and not feeling like shit.
Soraya: Doesn't take the potion. She's happy as she is.
Thalia: She takes the potion, since she has very little care for her own well-being, and it reverses the damage from when she was captured and experimented on both times, along with giving her a slightly higher muscle mass.
Reyna: She identifies the potion in her lab, and when she takes the potion, it erases the scars she got from being abused by her stepmother, and makes the blue streaks she dyes in her hair as part of her "Reyna Blazestar" persona permanent.
Laila: Alters her appearance just enough so she no longer looks like a perfect match to the Jedi she was cloned from, but not so much that she's unrecognizable. Now, the expectations placed on her won't weigh as heavy, since she no longer looks exactly like her donor.
Athena: After identifying the potion, she takes it, thinking it'll make her even more beautiful than she already is. Instead, it just takes away her body dysmorphia, so she can actually see the woman who she is in the mirror rather than the stringy-haired street urchin she used to be.
Pyrrha: The potion gives her natural body back, before the alterations that Nyx ordered. The etchings on her metal limbs remain in the form of tattoos, since she's super proud of them and would be sad to see them go.
Samira: After finding out what the potion does, she chooses to take it. It reverses the damage that being trapped in a basement under a madman's vineyard for 10+ years would do to a person.
Aldrich: After having Samira analyze it in her lab, he takes it, and it returns him back to a human, mortal form.
Sohelia: Takes the potion. Nothing happens. It turns out, her ideal body is the one she has right at the moment, despite what others might say.
Vanessa: Rather than returning her to the body that she had before being transformed into a monster, it instead makes her not-quite-human features less noticeable, like fading the exoskeleton on her body to almost her normal skintone, and making her sharp, jagged teeth look more like Sohelia's (almost human with slightly sharper canines)
Matt: After having it analyzed, he chooses to take it. It instantly heals his joint problems, and fixes up his nose, which was permanently crooked after a bad encounter with Sohelia and some bears.
Dolores: The potion returns her to her human form, and makes the ombre effect she dyes into her hair permanent.
Victorie: She takes the potion, since she's already dead anyway, what is it going to do? Kill her? But rather than giving her human form back, it leaves her as an immortal vampire, but removes her need to consume blood to survive.
Kayla: Once she knows what the potion is, she decides to take it. It restores her appearance to before she was kidnapped by HYDRA and forced to become their operative, though she retains the sick mullet that they gave her since she actually really liked that style.
Dori: Once they know what it is, they choose to give it to someone who needs it more than them. After all, they can shapeshift into any form they'd like.
Ellis: They're not really sure if it'll work on angels, but it's worth a shot. Rather than return them to their pre-fall appearance, it gives them a human form, which looks vaguely like their angelic form, just more human, so they can be around the people they love without having to be in disguise.
Gabi: Once Ellis identifies the potion, she takes it. It gives her instant gender-affirming care, and also fixes her heavily damaged curl pattern.
