    My Cardiologist said Dr. Ken Berry is a Clown Hard to know what to believe ?
     

    My cholesterol was a bit high 182 and my Cardiologist recommended a Statin. I refused and showed him this below of Dr. Ken Berry and after sitting there watching most of it he said this doctors a total Clown stating that for anyone to go against over 30yrs of solid Stain research you have to be a pretty slick grifter. He then went on to say you would need to post stuff like this that goes against the mainstream to excite people and generate clicks and that this guy is in it for the notoriety to make the money .

    I do believe your cardiologist is wrong. Abut 5 years ago I had a checkup which showed that my cholesterol was higher than the so-called standard and the doctor prescribed me Statins. I didn't know anything about the subject so I took them before bedtime every evening for 2 weeks. I woke up around 4 am every night with a splitting headache, so I did some research and concluded that statins were not for me. My now ex-doctor told me that I had to take them, When asked why she could not give any other answer than that it was dangerous not to take them. She even told me to sign a paper for refusing to take them. I told her what she could do with that document and have never been back to that clinic.

    Interestingly enough my doctor in Denmark agrees with me ( he doesn't get commission on prescriptions ).

    I'm 75 years old, never sick (had a bit of covid a year ago), take no medications. I play golf, go to the gym and most importantly eat real food, including red meat.. Come from a hotel/restaurant background and when I read the labels of most of the food you get in the supermarkets it scares me. So my advice is, don't eat anything that comes out a factory.

    Low carb bread

    in Hua Hin and Cha-Am

    Unless you can find an artisan bakery where you live (we have a couple in Chiang Mai), bake your own. It's fun and then you know what you put in your stomach.

    The plastic wrapped excuse for bread you find in the supermarket is poison.  I once bought one of those and left it on the kitchen counter. It still looked like new after 3 weeks. Now what kind of chemicals makes that possible?

    Tragic collision in Thailand’s west claims life in high-speed horror

    in Thailand News

    Posted

    From the linked article:

    "

    Thunpisit continued to explain that as they reached the junction leading to Kanchanaburi bypass road, he indicated to turn left when the saloon car, travelling at high speed, slammed into the rear of his truck.

    The impact caused his vehicle to veer and hit the road barrier. Kitti, who had been sitting in the back of the pickup, was thrown from the vehicle by the impact and hit the ground. The saloon car then dragged him into the barrier, resulting in his death, reported KhaoSod.

    Thunpisit added that the young female driver of the saloon car sustained minor injuries. She apologised, claiming she hadn’t seen his vehicle ahead, causing her to crash into it at high speed. This ultimately led to the fatal collision."

     

     

    UPDATE: More than 6,000 Diarrhea Patients in Phuket, 70% Infected with Norovirus

    I worked in a cruise ship. And we got it. Many passengers and a lot of the crew got sick. We got two experts on board in the next port to help us get rid of it. It was a lot of work and gallons of chloride before the ship was declared clean of the virus. Even one of the experts got sick. I managed to avoid it. Probalby because I wash my hands all the time. Keep your hands clean and try to avoid any who may have it. It spreads by air and touch and is very contagious. According to NHS alcohol based sanitizers are not effective against this virus.

    That's fine thanks, when I was told the oil filter should be changed every 20,000Ks, he mentioned filters which gave me the impression there was more than one. So there is only one filter I need to bother about?

     

    There is of course also the air filter which should be replaced every 24000 km according to the manual.

    If you don't have the owners manual, here's a link:

    According to the owners manual the oil should be changed every 12000 km and the filter every 24000 km. Personally I would change the filter with every oil change, and I would do the change more frequent than it says in the manual. Oil change is not where you want to save money.
