    I don't use cloud at all. Basically all of my backups are on external hard drives.

    That would be simple carbohydrates, aka sugars.

    That sugar however is produced by the body itself. Technically speaking, dietary requirement for sugar is 0. This doesn't mean it isn't useful to have some, but it definitely shoul…

    I have IBS, and what I did was literally that I kept a list of foods and symptoms they cause me. Turns out, carbohydrate-rich foods cause me massive issues, too much protein causes…
