ColoWayno's log

[ColoWayno]

So, it's time to get the BP under control again. I'm already taking the shotgun approach with supplements. I'm going to try to keep a detailed log so I can figure out what is helpful and what is not. I realized, after shopping for sups, that the mechanism in most of these supplements is nitrates, which help increase nitric oxide, a vasodilator, in your blood. There are some with slightly different mechanisms, so I'm going to try to do more research. Anyway, without further ado,

Look into the benefits of coconut oil, or eating a decent serving of raw coconut every day -- good for a whole bunch of stuff. Just added it to my daily regimen (the latter); going to see how it goes.

There's something to be said about tasty monkey-meat in a non-returnable container.

Or the dogs, it would appear. The whole Wayno clan (furry, or otherwise) seem to get quite worked-up over the ordeal. ;-)

I use coconut oil in my eggs everyday, along with some green chili infused olive oil. Since adding the infused oil my breakfast has taken on a new level of awesome.
