    "I'm sorry to miss the Japanese toilet discussion. The U.S. has long been behind many other countries in the use of toilet hygiene. But I've noticed more and more people I know installing toilet seat bidets for hygienic or religious reasons. As older people are at increased risk of UTI's, this is one simple home modification that might be effective."

    The Guardian 7-13-24 Five Doctors on the Supplements They Swear by from Vitamin D to Lion’s Mane
    https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/article/2024/jul/13/five-doctors-on-the-health-supplements-they-swear-by

    Dr. Alam is one of the five doctors interviewed for this article.
    His quotes in the article:
    'Zinc may be a trace element (meaning we only require tiny amounts) but zinc is essential for a healthy immune system and blood sugar balance.
    Dr Zalan Alam, a GP specializing in improving quality of life in old age, says he takes 5mg daily in colder months to ward off winter bugs.'

    “I take lion’s mane [derived from a type of mushroom] to improve brain fog and concentration without the spikes and dips I get from caffeine. I use it in adaptogenic coffee form rather than a straight supplement and I get the same levels of energy as from coffee but with fewer crashes.”

    Cass Phelps, a trainer of somatic healers with his own minerals line suggests:
    Host Defense - straight lions mane or brain capsules blend
    For best results take with a flush free niacin

    Comment from Ellen Khalifa - I'm a big fan of Harvard psychologist Ellen Langer. She's famous for the counterclockwise study. She's big on mindfulness. She says, we go through our lives, just not paying attention to anything. We need to pay attention to our senses, look at our fingers, and not just sort of like, oh, well, I don't know what that is, I'm not going to bother. Stay alert and know your own body. https://www.ellenlanger.me/
