I have had dry eyes, still occur in the summer when AC is blasting and right before winter. My solution was seeing an eye doctor, which recommended cyclosporine drops (I took them for 2 years every night), mediteranian diet, Omega3. Also cleaning my eyes with soft tooth brush and child shampoo (tearless) every night.

Naturally you have some little bacteria called Demodex on your eyelashes, but they might cause problems. The only way to get rid of them is clean your eyelashes with Teatree extract. I was recommended Blephademodex wipes, which I had to warm up in microwave and then clean my eyes.

All this solutions together made my dry eyes more manageable.


A friend of mine had to take insulin dose daily. Talking around with people, he found out that diet with carbon hydrates (bread, potato, rice…) increased blood sugar.

For the past few years, he is now on keto diet and eats 2-3 eggs per day, due to some missing aminoacyd (not entirely sure why). His blood sugar is normal and he doesn’t have to take insulin anymore.

If anyone needs some more info, contact and I can ask him for more details.

I'm confused. Is your a friend a diabetic whose doctor never told them that carbs increase their blood sugar level? Because this isn't exactly hidden knowledge for diabetics.


There are very big misconceptions about keto (ketoacidosis, too much protein, high fat is bad, cholesterol bad, etc) and many doctors don't mention it at all.

They tell patients to "navigate carefully on a world full of addictive carbs" which has disastrous results overall.


They probably knew about it, but not about strict keto diet.


Note that this is possible only for T2D. For T1D, keto supposedly still helps to maintain lower & more consistent blood glucose, thus needing less insulin, but you still need it.

Great tool. The stirling looked exactly the same, except on a server.

I wonder why it's not open source by now.


Wow, it covers almost anything, including redacting text.
