I've been really curious about the glucose drink expectant mothers have to drink to test their blood sugar. I don't know any person who just sits around and drinks it, so why would they use it for a test? Wouldn't it be more appropriate to ask the mother to come in fasted, and bring a particularly carbacious meal with dessert, then have her blood tested? If someone isn't drinking glucola on a regular basis, it doesn't make sense why they'd give a mother and unborn baby a shot of sugar like that when they could just have her eat a high-carb and sugar meal, then use that as a basis of how her body is handling sugar.

Just threw the Now brand of Omega fish stinky away. I don't take it because of the burps. This whole thing is just such a shit show. If they tell us its good for us walk the other way.

We have been so duped. If it smells fishy it probably is stinky and a lie.
