Anyone had any experience with manuka honey?
- Edited
Only that it’s a complete rip off and studies have shown it’s got absolutely no properties different than normal honey. It does generally taste nicer though but all the shit peddled is, well, shit.
Dr Michael Moseley did a segment on it on his prog. They took it through tests at a laboratory and it’s all unfounded hippy shit and companies whose latched onto it to rip you off.
He posted this at the time
Just stop eating cake and burgers rhouses and you’ll be sweet 
Cankles-McJeggings Noted. Was just going to say, the prices are ludicrous, not sure if its worth going all-in like I did magnesium (same friend recommended it).
Definitely not. Why did your friend recommend magnesium?
Cankles-McJeggings To help with sleep, mostly. A healthier replacement for melatonin.

Who is she?

It’s an electrolyte? Never seen it resulted to sleep ever. Chelate will just make you shit yourself inside out.
Cankles-McJeggings It’s a great sleep aid. Try it out.
What’s chelate?
- Edited
Look it up.
Why would I want to try it out when I already sleep fine?
Cankles-McJeggings You could do with a chill pill.
Will look up chelate, good for the mind eh?
Chelate is just a suspension the magnesium bonds to. It’s common. But also lots of people shit themselves inside out after taking it.
Cankles-McJeggings Some of the folks in this thread had the same issue with Magnesium Citrate, versus the other magnesium varieties.
What’s your take on cod-liver oil? Just started that, seems to be having a positive effect on me.

I eat loads of oily fish, ocean trout, smoked trout and salmon and smoked trout fillets throughout the week so no need to supplement with fish oils which are omega 3 and 6 rich. They recommend 250g twice a week and I’m double that. Don’t eat anything high in saturated fat either really. Maybe once or twice a month. Cut out dairy yonks ago. And bread.
I’m not very conventional for breaky I have rice, chickpeas, kale, tomatoes and smoked fish every single fucking day. Sometimes scramble an egg into it. Followed by dried dates, fig and apricot. Living the dream.
Shittest. Belly buster. Ever
Cankles-McJeggings Rice for breakfast? Even Dave doesnt eat that?

Haha 
it’s not out of choice mate. Only a bit, like half a handful of cooked. I’d die of starvation otherwise.
