Liquid is best. Definitely not tablets. I can’t see that it would be any different to take drops or to have gel caps that contain a liquid inside them. Should be the same. So it depends on how you want to take them i guess.

Helen1 replied to the topic Immunity supplement in the forum Supplements Reviews 3 weeks, 4 days ago
Me again LOL I just had another thought about this. Smart move for learning about it now! Immunity supplements are all I’m hearing about these days as kids go back to school. Colds and flus – among other things – are already flying around, so it’s a good idea to get our bodies running as good as we can!

Let us know what you think if you do try it. I’ve just started using it and so far so good!

I’d say something high cardio like running or spin class

I’d think either a plain magnesium supplement if you really aren’t getting enough in your diet. It’s not really specific to your immunity but is more of an overall something we should all get, like vitamin D. I’m about to try a supplement called IMMUNZ that is specific for the immune system, but I don’t know if it’s good yet because my order just arrived.

Helen1 replied to the topic Exercises that dont' get you too hot in the forum Weight Loss and Exercise 2 months ago
Head out on your bike in the morning. Even on a day when it starts getting hot pretty quickly, the breeze you’ll get will keep you cool enough while you drink water. Just don’t wait until the sun is at its hottest and there’s no shade.

I had those! So many years ago! They felt awful. They looked dumb, too. It was hard to do anything in regular everyday life in them. I tried walking on gravel in them once and almost died from wrenching myself all around.

Summer is really hot this year. Are there any good exercises that won’t burn me up? Other than swimming?

My weight isn’t losing anymore. I’ve been plateaued forever. I’m getting worried something is wrong. Is that a thing?

They really do! I finally ended up caving and got one for Prime Day at a pretty good price. It’s arriving today. I hope it’s good. I’ll try to remember to post here if I have an opinion one way or another LOL

Thank you for sharing that article. I didn’t spot it until now. It makes some handy points. I like that it points out the combined benefits with food. It works together, not just as two separate entities.

I’m looking at those little pedallers that are sold for putting under your desk that act a bit like an exercise bike. Honestly, I don’t plan to use it under my desk. More like in front of the couch while I watch TV. But are they worthwhile? Are they noisy? Do you get any exercise really? THey’re not cheap, so I’m trying to find out from someone…[Read more]

I have absolutely no drive at that time. I can’t imagine getting up earlier to do that. I think it’s amazing that you do it, though.

Helen1 replied to the topic how to get rid of a knot in my back in the forum Weight Loss Forums 4 months, 1 week ago
Ow! Ya, it feels like you should stretch them out, but don’t. If you’re 100% sure it’s a knot, apply heat to ease it. GENTLY stretch it a little bit after you’ve applied heat. do that a few times a day. Don’t push it. Better to do too little than too much. It’ll ease off on its own. It just sucks until it does.

Helen1 started the topic Run in the morning or evening? in the forum Running Forum 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Is it better to run in the morning to get it done or in the evening to shake off the day’s stress and maybe sleep better? How many days per week is ideal?

Helen1 replied to the topic Yes it makes a difference to weight loss in the forum Weight Loss and Exercise 4 months, 3 weeks ago
That’s an interesting article. So if I understand right, it’s diet that gets the weight off and exercise that keeps it off. Good to know.

Exactly! I went out every day last week and I always felt better after than I did before.

You won’t be able to lose weight if the only change you make is exercise. But it will make a big difference to the changes you make to your diet. It will buy you more calories to eat without gaining, especially.

If you can walk outside it’s better than inside on a treadmill. The sidewalk, even if it’s flat and straight, will go up and down hill even slightly and will tilt left and right just a bit. You’ll breathe fresh air, get some sunlight and see other people around you. It’s good for you if you can do it. Not just for your physical health but m…[Read more]
