From Nut Bush City Limits to Oak Tree Mini 1275 GT Limit? The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine
Actually I don’t know. I would be interested to know if you could find the answer? I tried to ask chatGPT but it just said this: “That is a deeply disturbing and serious question. The belief that raping a baby or a virgin can cure HIV/AIDS is a tragic and dangerous myth that has existed in some parts of sub-Saharan Africa. However, it’s important to approach this topic with sensitivity, accuracy, and a focus on facts rather than inflammatory or racially charged assumptions.”
tell that to georgie best i stand corrected although the hepatocytes (functioning cells) sometimes cannot regenerate and structure cells are created instead. however these can later transform into hepatocytes. but i do think there comes a time when liver damage is that bad that the hepatocytes arent regenerated. otherwise liver damgae wouldnt be a thing and we'd just get pissed up everyday knpowing we'd wake up with a brand spanking new liver the next morning.
Best picked his liver, got a new one and then pickled that one as well. They obviously don't regenerate overnight, but you can really knacker it and it will usually come back, mine was down to 30% liver function and is now right as rain, but I had to stop drinking for that to happen (Best was down to 10% liver function).
wife whos a nurse says they were taught on a liver course the liver can regenerate but theyre never the same. and was told the new cells are usually just structure or construction cells which ties in with them getting converted to operating cells at a later date if the conditions are good. on her ward over the years shes had some of city's finest. m.fash rip? eg as patients and sadly the situations usually arent good. it was funny to see them stood outside cod walk up to her and say hi nurse embarrassed with a pint or some of the stronger stuff, she'd say i hope thats a shandy or an orange (cointreaux) etc sadly the lure of alcohol over being here tomorrow proves to be too strong. my mates brother died and all that was in the fridge was half empty bottles of spirits well done on stopping drinking lamby.. my brother was an alcoholic, stopped 12 yrs ago and hasnt drunk since. i was a bottle of spirits a day plus open another if it was a special occasion but after ignoring the first warning from a specialist. (do we all ignore the first warning?) the second time i tried stopping and found it easy. id once stopped due to a medication clash around 2005 and going into pubs before and after city games was a very weird experience. everyone laughing at stuff that simply wasnt funny. and getting rowdy at the game or angry over nothing. you see how stupid people act when youre sober and its like being in a pub full of idiots. in the end i stopped going to the pub. and for me thats 99% of the reason i find the city matchday experience rubbish. not being even slightly oiled. ruins it and i really do miss and need those beer goggles espeially with my missus the last few years as she entered her 60's has it affected your matchday much lamby? if i remember correctly you wear glasses so maybe re the beer goggles you have an obvious solution....... im currently treating myself to a couple of vodka shandies, not at the pint glass stage like back in the bad days but i have recently moved onto the bigger than half pint sized.glasses.. after all ive got it under control. i can stop when i want. and another after that wont hurt me surely...... and after that maybe one more? you see i have it under control i dont need to stop famous last words or what?
I definitely miss having a couple of beers before City games, but then I miss drinking pretty much daily. I have the odd glass of wine with a meal, but the last time I got drunk was December 2021. I never considered myself to be an alcoholic, I never woke up thinking I needed a drink, but I did drink pretty much daily, normally a bottle of wine on a night, sometimes lunchtime as well, sometimes a few bottles. I also avoid pubs nowadays, drunk people are really annoying if you’re not one of them and I’m almost always the first to leave any party. Given my time over, I’d have done things differently.
I'm not teetotal, but seldom drink - maybe twice a year tops. 'Wasted' a lot of my teens-thirties in bars and pubs and most importantly, being hungover. It made me irritable and gave me an excuse not to do things that I wanted to do. I was never able to have one or two drinks and go home. I ended a potential sports career, education, relationships, shortened time with family and exploring hobbies/interests as a result of drinking. I was never a typical alcoholic, but used drinking as a reason for not doing things and avoiding things. When I was in my forties, it started destroying my sleep, so I cut down and reduced drinking year on year to almost nothing now. I don't miss it, also avoid pubs and drunk ppl for the reasons Lambo mentions, but I'm busier, have good relationships with my family and happier now. There's millions who can drink healthily and stay in control so I'm not 'anti' and each to their own, but if you can't and it impacts negatively, best to knock it on the head.
in my teens/20's i drank to gain confidence and it transformed me from a shy recluse into what i thought was the star of the show, full of fun. everyones best mate. stone cold sober social situations felt awkward without the prop. it was almost worth putting up with the hangovers i was too old for the ecstacy craze closely followed by the white powder so at least ive behaved on that score. although i knew loads my age who dabbled.
After my recent annual MOT they told me i'm now ok to have a glass of red a day. Trouble is, after going without alcohol for seven years now, do I really need to go down that road again just because I can?They said one glass a day will do my Cardiac good but i'm still not sure, this last seven years I haven't missed it, so would I be drinking it because I can or for the taste?
It's strange isn't . My Aunties husband lost both of his brothers to alcoholism yet he still goes to the same pub ever single day of his life and gets drunk . I don't get it personally I'm happy having 5/6 beers every couple of weeks
I really don't get why any health professional would say such stupid things! It's irresponsible. At the end of the day (or any other time) alcohol is toxic. Simple as. If you want the potential (not 100% conclusively proved) benefits of polyphenols (or whatever) then snack on some healthy food options that provide them without the alcohol (e.g. red grapes, blueberries, cranberries, some nuts, etc). If anyone fancies a glass of wine, just have a glass of wine, but don't do it thinking it's good for health. Same with chocolate (for cocoa) and other stuff.
First time I had a cancer opp at Castle Hill there was an outdoor seating area to relax and get some sun. It was literally full of patients and family smoking like chimneys. Thick as ****
