Greetings folks, I was a bit concerned about something. Given the fact that in my home country in Central Africa (as is the case in quite a good number of others), you can rarely ever find any protein supplements at all, the gym I've been going to now for almost two years has come up with a strategy where it orders and imports Whey protein powder from North America, specifically Canada, and they come in very big containers. However, I am wondering if I have anything to be concerned about because the 24g of Whey protein I bought at the gym three weeks ago has 80mg of cholesterol and I just realized that. Should good Whey protein have that much cholesterol? In terms of regular fat, the protein in question has 2g.
"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Cholesterol in Whey Protein?

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

It's not bad for you. The cholesterol in whey works to lower your body's oxidation of its bad (LDL) cholesterol. Even though you are consuming one type of cholesterol, the net effect is that it reduces cholesterol's overall harm to your body, such as arterial sclerosis.

The media and doctors have done a very effective job of painting cholesterol as evil, when in fact it is anything but. First of all, your liver will make cholesterol if you dont eat it, it is what hormones are synthesized from. Second, when people have high cholesterol, they really are just very unhealthy people whose bodies are being ravaged by free radicals. The cholesterol acts as a band aid as the body attempts to repair the damage. So giving people cholesterol lowering drugs is basically treating the symptom and not the cause, something western medicine is all too in love with. Don't treat the actual problem, treat the symptom, ensuring years and years of bad health, doctor visits, hospital stays and costly drugs. If you think the FDA, doctors, the american medical association and pharmaceutical companies have your best interest in mind, you are sadly mistaken. They are in business to ensure every american is on drugs from the earliest point in their life possible for the rest of their life.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
