cberg: What's beta carotene?

Hello, everyone. I'm up unusually early. I couldn't get back to sleep.
I had a rather unsettling dream. There was a young, twentyish girl with a long dark blue travelling cloak and long, dark braided hair. She was lost in the snow, but then came across a huge, imposing manor type of building. She was reluctantly let in, and discovered that there had been a murder there [or some such thing?]. Everyone was a suspect, naturally, but no police or detectives had been called. There was another young person there, a man, dressed in a dark suit with dark hair and pale skin. He kept following the girl around in an amiably creepy kind of way. He tried to get her to drink some wine with him, but she protested that she never drank alcohol. So he drank some instead, but then started convulsing and was dead within seconds, all the while the girl was screaming and screaming. She quickly left after that, back out into the snow.

beta carotene is an A vitamin. you might just want to take a multivitamin as B vitamins are also important for skin and hair.

^But I do take a multivitamin, in liquid form, in my tea. Maybe I should take some every morning and at night instead?

You could try getting the vitamins from wholefoods rather than supplements.
I used to rely a lot on multivitamins, but it's only now I'm eating some real food that my nails and hair have stopped breaking and wimping out on me.

Purely anecdotal of course.

We're even dirtier in the rockies, thanks to skis & bikes. Oh wait maybe it's all us ski bums' strong arsed beer. Or because I'm literally fine with being ballistically covered in mud. :lol: :lmao:

No. I couldn't figure it out by using google translate. What does it mean?

Also who/what is your avatar?

Based on a dodgy understanding of physiology plus personal experience with taking supplements, there seems to be a sort of carousel of micronutrients including, among others, iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper and potassium, where taking one of these lowers the uptake of another. Multivitamins seem to have little effect on me.

In general, some of these micronutrients seem to be more easily absorbed by the body through food. They come prepackaged, so to speak. And then there are tricks such as eating mineral-rich foods such as spinach or kale with citrus for the vitamin c.

End of lecture, just thought to support the idea. It's something I'm thinking about a lot, for the health of my family.

Yes, I was right! The reason why it didn't work in translate the first time was because there is this little thing on top of the letter e, but it was suggested further down. Maybe this one ` Grand tètons.

I take multivitamins, iron, B12 tablets, and thyroid pills.

It's a character called Sans from a game called Undertale.

Although this is from a sort of alternate fan-made version called Underswap, where all of the characters' personalities are switched. In the original game, Sans is lazy and his brother is very energetic,

But in the swapped version, his brother Papyrus is lazy, and Sans is very energetic.

Underswap Sans is basically a hyper little kid.

He's very naive and childish and passionate about his interests. Personally I could see him as being on the spectrum.

I like Underswap Sans because he acts a lot like me. That's why he is my avatar. :D
