Hello,
Thought I’d share. I’ve been taking turmeric capsules with probiotics for a few years now. I’ve noticed a huge difference in nvld symptoms. Thought I’d share. |

If you're clenched in and slouched down they take that more seriously than what words you're using.

| Yeah, I care about social status somewhat. I’m not sure. Reading body language is mostly unconscious. It lets me know how they’re feeling & what they feel about me or another person & whether they would be friendly to me, etc. How often do you pick up on body language? What do you mean you ... |

| I’ve noticed that people never describe as “nice”- however the irony is that I’m the nicest person on the planet. I’m free of manipulation, deceit, gossip, and have a high sense of justice for marginalized groups. However, I’m awkward say inappropriate things and have an angry look on my face- I’m d... |
