deejah Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 i thought i would take this forum to a different level what health improvements have been made since you left your home country and/or came to Thailand? off the top of my head: once i left the USA i ceased getting these awful seasonal allergies in the fall and spring that lasted longer and longer each progressive year since i have been to Thailand the dandruff i had for years i believe is gone must be diet when i went back to the states to visit i could not eat enough cheese last year but right before i left the USA i started to break out in rashes on my arms probably the cheese dairy and yogurt i occasional get migraines here but not often and not for long and i can function without medication it might also be easier here to keep the pounds off due to climate diet and lifestyle must be more but that's plenty for now how about you? what improvements and why?

Gary A Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I had severe dry skin problems especially during the Ohio winters. It's no longer a major problem. I loved cheeseburgers and fries. Cholesterol and high blood pressure were VERY difficult to control. I also had stomach problems. They too have gone away even with eating hot spicy food. My Thai wife is a great cook and I eat 95 percent Thai food now. I have lost 20 pounds while eating what I want. Blood pressure is nearly OK without any drug but I still take half an Anapril tablet a day along with a baby aspirin. Maybe the best thing is the no stress life style.

poshthai Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) No headaches now No stress levels No aches and pains from my football career No pains from 2 knee operations No back problems from 800 miles a day driving Much more energy with packing up that bad habit of smoking Feel more content Enjoy long walks Only downside for me is constant bites from mozzies(yung ghat) and no matter what i put on nothing seems to work.Also had a couple of small infections with me scratching the bites too. Eating farang food can give me indegestion now but very phet food is ok. Edited July 9, 2008 by poshthai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
