I have never had a good experience with weed personally...it just seems to make me paranoid, tired, and I feel like I can't do anything for the rest of the day and at least half the day the next. Conversely, I've had amazing exper

This shouldn't be surprising. If you're on an employer-based healthcare plan, a HDHP only makes sense if you're young, healthy, have no dependents, don't take expensive medication, and your employer pays most of the an

When I switched to a low/no carb diet my gums were much less inflamed and stopped experiencing bleeding in my gums (w/ regular flossing). I also stopped getting that "filmy" feeling in my mouth when I'd occasionally
