I also drink fewer mugs a day, drinking more tap water instead.

I always assume that tap water (even here in the UK) is potentially hazardous to health, and so I put it through a filter first. Not one of those cheap plastic Brita things, but a water-purifier — the sort of thing they ship to disaster areas so they can make ditch water potable.

It also tastes much better. So much better that I seldom drink anything else these days.

Obviously, two meals a day is more than adequate, and there are hundreds of studies which support intermittent fasting.

For years, I’ve been eating just once a day. I have a single large meal in the evening.

My BMI is usually around 24, so I haven’t exactly wasted away…

Hello Howard: Yes. There are always exceptions to any rule. I’ve known a few persons who were hypoglycemic. They ate small frequent meals, as low blood sugar would leave them weak and light headed. Large meals would make them nauseous, and they had to pay close attention to what kinds of foods they consumed. Pasta was a real no, no…

With the complexity of the human body, it’s a wonder the damn thing works at all. Take care…

The “National Mob” is working on that one. Gonna make someone “an offer they can’t refuse”. I am referring to Vegas. Lake Mead’s water level is dropping below the level of the intakes so they were/are drilling lake bottom intakes. This is real. Special grates will be needed to keep the 55 gallon drums stuffed with bodies from clogging the intakes. One of the MSM news magazines did a story about the expected water shortage in Vegas and interviewed a young and pretty woman hired by the city of Las Vegas to “get water”. And yes, they have a blueprint for conveying water from Lake Superior. They will be holding a gun to Trudeau’s head to force him to rescind the Great Lakes Treaty where the U.S. and Canada agreed to limit new withdrawls only to cities in drainage basin. Little do they know, only 1% of the Great Lakes is recharged and available for use. The rest is left over melted glaciers. California would jump for joy since the bulk of Lake Mead is diverted to the southern part of their state which supplies 80% of the U.S. winter vegetable crop. I can see some emergency declaration coming along to “temporarily” pump Lake Superior water to provide food for those not killed by the clot shots in the United States. I don’t know which would be worse. The culling or a water diversion. That culling is looking better every day……. Did I just say that? Meanwhile, John Kerry and Al Gore are working on a plan to build turbines and panels to save the world. Fucking clueless idiots. You would think that Gore would have figured out after a couple decades of screaming the sky is falling that the climate change crisis is a hoax. Must be dementia……. or a lot of money.

I think Tepco.

Though I don’t think I have a stomach ulcer, and at 105 lbs I don’t come close to being overweight (5’5″ tall). Nonetheless I must eat three meals a day plus occasional snacks or else my stomach really hurts and I get light-headed. Of course, those are three small meals – snacks by most standards of consumption.

So there are times and situations where the three-meal regime is not only appropriate but necessary.

Here in Bangkok. Price for a duck egg is ฿6, not quite 20 cents, about a buck for 5 fat ones. Some food items have risen here but some not so much.
