400 mcg Huperzine A is clearly way too much for me in 24 hours. I
had alot of the side effects at that dose blurry vision, complete loss of appetite and dizziness. So I'm scaling back to 100 mcg every 8 hours. This is a powerful drug clearly but not sure how it will turn out. |

| The thread was started by a fundamentalist Christan who saw the idealistic goal of communism as similar to Jesus' teachings. The reality is the very human nature that keeps most people from living according to Jesus teachings is the very reason communism would never work. Its just an impossible dream. |

| Zionism = The belief in Israel's right to exist = basic human right. Anyone who isn't a Zionist is scum. Yeah it amounts to self-determination of people. My ancestors were likely Irish that immigrated first to West Virgina then Texas. Enough similar people moved that they decided Texas should be in... |

I ate loads of seafood as a kid.
I doubt it would cure anything. The idea is more to prevent your assault rifle becoming your best friend in the world. |

Which means there is not a chance in hell of the US changing its fundamentally relationship with Israel in your life time. But that want stop you obsessing over the impossible will it? :... |

| if this were true, wouldn't we see a marked decrease in rates of these disorders among communities that eat fish almost exclusively? sounds fishy to me (pun intended)... possibly a red herring? In the case of some other disorders. If you compare omega-3 intake and suicide/depresion rates in Japan o... |

I've been desperately trying to convince my sister to get more omega-3 in her kids. I have my 5 year old nephew now swallowing 1 gram fish oil capsules.  Not sure if there is any realtionship to autism spectrum but there likely is to a host of other problems. |

| I think how severe your autism spectrum trait are will effect the realtive levels of problems you will have with NT's. The simple fact that as a person on the spectrum gets older it becomes harder to diagnose mild-to-moderate cases without their histories at a young age confirms that levels of impai... |

My sister, her husband, their 3 sons , my dogs, cats and online friends Alternative and Apatura are the only ones who would miss me if I was hit by a bus.
I guess worst is parents but I rarely talk to them so they are not a real problem. |
