Random Musings - Day #118

Vitamins
I've been told having even the one-a-day multivitamins might put over the limit for certain vitamin types. 'Overdose' on certain vitamin types may cause problems. I can understand thinking on this. I was looking at buying omega-3 supplements. There was a standard and high strength. It was same price but there were only 45 high strength capsules whilst there were 100 standard capsules. I thought the standard capsules are better value. More importantly, what would stop me from taking 2 at a time to get the desired high strength dosage. However in each of the bottles, it says that a number of categories meet the GDA (Guidance Daily Allowance not to be confused with Greenwich Dance Agency) Hence taking 2 tablets would mean I'd taken twice the limit.

Insoles
I was disgusted to see how badly marked up the price of insole support for feet are. Nothing less than 23 quid in boots. There are cheaper ones if you can find them.

Sir Ryan Giggs?
There is a site that petitioning for Ryan Giggs to be made a knighthood. Mind you, you can just call him sir anyways, just like Sir Les.

Sore back?
I've got a sore back! I've got some Deep Heat but there is a similar product called Deep Freeze that does the reverse! Salonpas is a patch that gives heat relief to aches as well. Although I don't think it as readily available. Similarly, Ammeltz is similar to Salonpas except it is in roll-on form.
Back to backs! There is some medical advice about sore backs available.
