all day today my upper lip and part of my lower lip keep turning a pasty color, i can put water on them and the color goes back to normal for about 1 minute then back to beeing pasty they go. It could just be chapped lips but there not cut or really chapped just diffrent color then normal. I have been tested already for anemia and it was a negitive of course that was like 3 weeks ago. if it is chapped lips what brands are safe i have some blistex medicated ointment but i dont have the box it came in anymore

your lips, as they get "pre-chapped" (my name ;-) ) change colour a bit here and there - they're not the exact same color every hour of every day. as long as they're not looking blue or purple, it's unlikely to be a big problem. keep an eye on them from time to time over the next three weeks and see how they change.

Blistex and Carmex tear up my lips....I use Bag Balm - it was originally made for cows' udders - seriously - but is sold in the drug store for humans as a soothing balm. They have a smaller container that I carry in my purse. Love it!

I use, and highly recommend, Badger Balm. You can get it in a little pot, or a tube. Great flavors, and I spoke with the company--they contain no gluten.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.

      suggest gluten free food

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.
