Seaweed is good for nails. If you like it it's a good snack.
Don't eat too much vit k though. A vegetarian friend of mine ate too much and had to go on coumadin because her blood was so clotted.
I eat blueberry bagels but I'm a carb addict. I'd rather exercise than diet but right now I won't eat cookies, cakes or cream cheese. I'm not adding but I'm not losing either.
Sushi is high protein low fat but too much and you get mercury poisoning. I was eating a lot of salmon after my last diverticular flare up but I noticed it was farm raised so I'm off fish for a month or two to clear out any high levels of mercury.
They cat scanned my vege. friend twice in one month and now her thyroid's messed up. She's on thyroid meds. Maybe for the rest of her her life. So they're not giving me another cat scan for at leat 2 years. I don't care how sick I get.
I have rosacea too but I don't wear makeup anymore. Unless it's for a day or night or two on spec. occasions. Why? Make up is expensive and most men don't wear it so why should I. I don't like re-applying it anyway. I like over the counter facials with vitamen e if I can find them. Peels. That closes the pores. Wash make up off with hot water b4 bed and rinse with cold water to close the pores. Just plain soap. No astringents. No clogging moisturizers. Just soap and water. During the day you can use sunblock mositurizers. That helped me.
