When I laughed at the above with my friends and questioned what they bathed their children in and what they fed them food/water wise, I was given a strange look as if water in Radium, Banff or Calgary is drastically different.
It literally seems that everybody I know is worried about radon now, has sleep apnea and requires a machine or a $5k mouth guard.
This kinda leads to my minor gear grinder, what is up with the non stop ads and product placement for stool softener like restoralax, gummies, Metamucil?? Seems like it's everywhere and everybody on it, even young and healthy. Is it a result of a ton of people with GI, gluten and Ozempic related issues?

Most people are just fat and out of shape. I was approved for a cpap machine 1.5 years ago after a sleep test, I was also booked to get my gall bladder removed after several serious attacks, I was looking at knee surgery and had constant chiropractor appointments for my lower back.
I took my diet and exercise seriously, lost 30lbs and got into decent shape and presto! All of my ailments went with the weight. Not a single gall bladder attack (despite eating the same things that gave me attacks before), no lower back or knee pain and I sleep like a baby. Mind you I'm only 36 and was 220ish pounds, so probably not even in the 50% for BMI among middle aged adults. Couldn't imagine being more unhealthy than that
