There’s very little information on chamomile’s effect on insomnia. A 2019 review of six small studies included only one study on insomnia. That one study found that chamomile had no benefit for insomnia. The same 2019 review looked at five studies on chamomile’s effect in non-insomnia populations. The review concluded that chamomile might help improve the individual component of sleep quality over a 4-week period in people without insomnia.
Ingredients in order: chamomile, spearmint, lemongrass, tilia flowers, blackberry leaves, orange blossoms, Hawthorn, rosebuds
Would have rather posted this to a neutropic sub, but we don't have one on the Lemmyverse, but loosely related There is no scientific evidence that curcumin reduces inflammation, as of 2020.[10][11][45] There is weak evidence that turmeric extracts may be beneficial for relieving symptoms of knee osteoarthritis,[46] as well as for reducing pain and muscle damage following physical exercise
In the past 5 years, there have been several clinical trials investigating the potential anti-aging effects of metformin in humans. One notable study is the Targeting Aging with Metformin (TAME) trial, which aims to test whether metformin can delay or prevent age-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and cognitive decline. The trial has completed its planning phase and is currently recruiting participants. Other studies have also investigated the potential benefits of metformin for specific age-related conditions, such as cognitive impairment and frailty. While more research is needed to establish the safety and efficacy of metformin as an anti-aging therapy, these studies suggest that it holds promise as a potential tool to promote healthy aging.
Nicotine is unusual in comparison to most drugs, as its profile changes from stimulant to sedative with increasing dosages, a phenomenon known as "Nesbitt's paradox" after the doctor who first described it in 1969
So if you know with 100% certain you're about to be tortured for 5 minutes, not a bad idea to get hammered. But if they wait til you sober up a little then torture you, it'll be worse.
If I'm working late and a have a 5 min nap anytime after like 4pm, it makes me have insomnia that night by more than 5 mins. Happens quite consistently.
Which is why it's a poor anti anxiety thing and poor sleep aid
Not even nurses I know wear masks outside of work here.

Okay, lower blood glucose responses is like legumes and high blood glucose response is like sugary cereals?
Which sounds like that backs my hypothesis that sugary cereals are still barely fit for human consumption

Could you explain what "breakfast rich in carbohydrate, and a lower blood glucose response following breakfast" means?
Like so I should eat sugary cereals on the morning?
Lower blood glucose responses?

Hot showers haven't ever worked for me. But I have slept in bathtubs filled with hot water.
I've heard that a few people sleep better with this
ZafiraHUN 2 years ago • 100%
tested lots of different techniques during that time and the only one that I think had some effect was doing cardio that was intense enough to leave me physically exhausted.
What works ish for me semi consistently that isn't drugs when having severe trouble, sitting in front of a personal heater til I overheat and that makes it easy for me to fall asleep, but it only works in the winter and i have to be naked so sweat evaporates.

Tried once, no obvious effect
I'll try it out and see if it works for me Reddit: When you’re in bed with your eyes closed, roll them back as far as you can (it’s kind of a weird feeling to me). Hold them like that for several seconds, relax, repeat. The reason something so simple works is because your eyes roll back naturally when you’re really asleep in this fashion. Doing it deliberately signals the brain to release melatonin, which is one of our “sleep hormones” (and popular as a supplement to take at bedtime to help sleep). So there you have it. I just saved you 12 bucks. :D

I couldn't understand the paper more, but it looks like it increases serotonin in our brains?
So imo, you should also research the advice your dr gives you in case the wikipedia page was vandalized when she was reading it.

It's debateable how contagious it is https://mander.xyz/post/210541, both might be airborne

monkeypox isn’t as infectious or even as deadly,
"The case fatality rate in these four African countries combined is 4.4%"
iirc og covid is 0.75% globally. Probably like 1% or so no treatment.
so afaik, monkeypox is 4.4x deadlier than og covid no treatment for both.

If you go to fancy enough establishments, ask the server if they have a nutrition/calorie sheets someplace. Early vegan activism involved asking servers to recommend them a vegan dish.

What about you? Are you planning on starting? Have you been doing it?
Haha thanks for asking.
I'm trying to cut junk food out first , later on vegetarianism, then veganism and at some point after that, calorie restriction.
Cutting out junk food is probably easy mode calorie restriction
