From a post on pregnancy, this bit about folic acid supplements.

Also, the focus on folic acid puzzles me. I did only the most cursory google search to see what the story is with it. I don’t doubt that it’s critically necessary to making new people, but why is it so hard to get enough folic acid in your diet? Where could you get it naturally that you wouldn’t have to take supplements? Spinach, quinoa, beans, nuts, healthy vegetables. Oh. So basically, it’s in virtually everything but in what America is eating. Not a single sentence in this WP report mentions diet or nutrition.

Another good reason to visit San Francisco.

This, in fact, will be the largest Day Spa in SF for facials, massages, nail care, hair care, and aromatherapy. Burke Williams coined the term “Day Spa” in the mid-1980s and owns eight other locales, mostly in Southern California.

A review of a facial at Roop.

After Valerie emerged from the room, it was my turn. I was impressed by Jaanvi. She was so careful and explained each step. She seemed to really care about getting to the root of my problem skin. As she inquired about my eating habits, I knew this wasn’t the usual facial. She constructed a facial that was exactly right for me - I knew she wasn’t one of the ‘follow the same ole’ routine for every acne client’ therapists. She took the time to help me consider how to heal my skin, from the inside out.

From a post on the church and modern society.

Heck, we can even use modern culture to prove this point! Coke has been the leading soft drink for years, despite hundreds of new products on the market each year. Consumers flock to brands that are time-tested and recognizable. We feel comfortable in reliability and familiarity. Look in your own closet and in your own home. Do you always wear Levi’s? Do you always drink Pepsi? Do you always end up on the same channels on TV? Do you always buy the same groceries and hair care products?

From a blogger figuring out the right weight and supplements for her pregnancy.

I was genuinely surprised. She then gave me some last advice regarding vegetables and DHA-rich foods and supplements, made sure that I would follow the doctor’s recommendations, made sure that I would exercise and stay strong during the pregnancy and childbirth, and then I was on my way.

From a blogger's response to twenty questions, the response on what to bring when stranded on an island.

While the New Yorker collection is apt, it's useless without a computer. Laptop it is, people. That and sunscreen. I am very pale.

After Duodenal Switch Procedure, coping with weight, diet, and supplements.

I do so fight for control when I know – or should know- that the DS does it’s own thing. The only control I have has to do with eating well and ensuring my supplements are taken. Mmmmm…something I just can’t swing back into – I must get it together very soon now else I will be playing with fire. It’s odd how a break from the Vits has disrupted things – it’ll take some effort now to build it back into a habit, but hopefully it won’t take too long.
