Re: Sugar
Have you ever noticed how much sweet there is in the world when you sharply curtail the amount of added sugar you take in your diet?
Your whole palate re-aligns and so many things taste so much better.

Heh, I've always been a saltoholic.
But the ions you get in salt increase conductivity. One of the medications they can give you as a migraine prophylactic is in a class called sodium channels blocker.
Basically, a migraine is caused when the neurons in your brain misfire, so sometimes medications that inhibit the channels that allow nerve conductivity (or over-conductivity in this case) will help prevent them --calcium channel blocker, sodium channel blockers, beta blockers ...

TAMARAC, Fla. - Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel didn't make it to a political forum for local candidates at a condominium for senior citizens Wednesday afternoon, but he seemed well-represented by his underlings nonetheless.
Working the door and passing out Broward Sheriff's Office pamphlets, some of which featured prominent photos of the sheriff, was Patti Lynn, a BSO employee in full uniform. There was also Capt. Ira Goldberg, a longtime Israel campaign volunteer, who was also dressed in BSO garb and on the clock. There was also Tamarac Chief Neal Glassman, as well as a lieutenant.
Hallandale Beach commissioner, candidate use city resources to do campaign work
All that BSO manpower at a political event at Kings Point condos in Tamarac had Israel's opponents fuming and alleging he's misusing his office to aid his political campaign.
...
Fellow Democratic candidate Jim Fondo, a former BSO commander, said he believed it might violate state laws forbidding politicians from using the power of their public office in campaigning.
"Obviously, Scott Israel can't be everywhere, so he sends his people to fill in for him," Fondo said. "I think it borders on illegal."
Fondo said Lynn is a fixture on the campaign trail, passing out BSO flyers featuring prominent photos of the sheriff.
"She's in her BSO uniform," Fondo said. "I don't believe she should be here at all."
...
Fondo has criticized the sheriff's expanded Community Outreach Department as a whole, alleging it is a bastion of politically motivated hires and a waste of millions of tax dollars. Running community outreach with a $73,000 salary is Israel hire Wally Eccleston, the husband of Israel's campaign manager, Amy Rose.
Also serving as manager of a related department, Community Affairs, has been former newspaper reporter Elgin Jones, who heavily criticized Israel's 2012 opponent, Lamberti, at his community newspaper job prior to his hire by Israel after the election.
...
"I think the department has become 100 percent more political since Scott Israel came in here," Fondo said.
