    Tracking Software For Temp, Pulse And Nearly Everything Else

    Here is a neat little tool I have been using to check my pulse. Put one hand on your pulse, the other on the spacebar, and tap the spacebar to the beat of your pulse. I am pretty good at it now so it only takes 4 or 5 taps to get a good reading. :dance http://www.all8.com/tools/bpm.htm

    Motivation. Diet Or Psychological?

    I had a thought this morning... We always talk about how our diet directly affects our motivation. We always say "My diet has been great the past week... i've felt very motivated" or "I ate something "bad"... and i've been very unmotivated." Is motivation the product of a healthy diet/body...

    Oestrogen Dominance And Thyroid

    Hey guys :) I have Oestrogen Dominance and one of the effects is that it down regulates the thyroid. Does anyone know how high Oestrogen causes this to happen? My T3 is in the lower 20% but it's my T4 that's below the acceptable range.
