3 kidneys

You must be an alien

I think she pulls our leg.

It is not so uncommon, but it always surprised people. Last year, I accompanied a group of Kurdish students in Paris, and a Yezidi girl could not walk too fast because she had only one kidney. When she learnt that I have 3, she was bewildered, as wondering if God is often drunk when He distributes these sorts of organs.

Tripes are also a tasty meal, for French people, for Turkish people (tripes soup) and for Kurds. Serûpê (head and feet) and tripes of goat or sheep are common in Behdinan.

are all the three the same size and functioning normally?

I swear I had seen a headline news some where about some one with two hearts but didn't take notice of it.

I born with 4 kidneys, in fact, the 4th was smaller and imbedded in the top of the 3rd, so it did not function normally and created troubled. So at 14, I had a surgery to take off the 4th and the top of the 3rd, and now everything is ok, I have exactly 2 and 3/4 of kidneys, working perfectly.

The advantage of having more than 2 kidneys is that you can be a bank or organs for your own family

Definitely an alien and it explains why you never look any older

Do the men on your planet all look akin to this handsome hunk - if so when you go back may I come too



(his was the first photo on google images when I asked for sexy alien men - and google NEVER lies)

I don't know for the look but it explains definitively why I need to pee 100000 times per day.

Concerning your crush, I am not fond of Mr Muscle. I would have always the feeling to sleep with a rocky mammouth.

This was abnormal but with advantages. But don't abuse this advantage with kidney unfriendly food and spices like too much use of salt or food with a lot of potassium. Enjoy your good health.

What's the worst ? Sugar or salt ?

What's the worst ? Sugar or salt ?

There have been many conflicting studies undertaken in the UK about the effect of salt on the body

Some of the experts who correlate all the findings have been working in the field for more than 20 years

Personally I would say neither sugar or salt are bad for you if taken in moderation

However not the same could be said about the long term affects of coffee drinking

New studies are taking place on the effects of chewing gum - it is thought that actual chewing motion while chewing the gum - stimulates the blood flow to certain parts of the brain making people more alert

According to some Swedish studies, milk is bad for adult and old people, while cheese is the BEST

I never drink milk, even in my coffee I can pour some cream but no milk. But I am a cheese-addict.

Snap - I never drink milk - sometimes people have made me tea with milk in it and I have had a sip out of politeness - milk tastes the same as I imagine chalk tastes

[Piling]

Tea and milk are though considered in France as typical British habit (while all the world imagine that French people put garlic even in their croissant…).

I am too lazy at morning to make a real café viennois (with whipped cream) but the only coffee I accept to drink after a dinner is the Irish one

Today, at dinner : Vegetable curry and cocoa cream (no animal has suffered during the cooking, then).

[Londoner]

Tea is antiseptic on the short term but a poison on the long term if not in a vey moderation.
I put fresh garlic and red union in my porridge every morning.
Nature made milk only for new borns and babies, not adults.
Salt causes blood pressure and stroke.
Sugar is very bad. In the link bellow you see 76 of harms of Sugar:

I had my first curry of winter - a lovely vegatable curry

I do like weak black tea - I either have unrefined sugar (never white) or honey

I do love honey from my local apiary

I only use sea salt or rock salt at home - not that I use salt very often

I like garlic in food

By unrefined sugar I assume you mean brown sugar. But I am not sure if brown sugar has any advantages over white one.

DR Hiromi Shinya MD advices to drink tea, if you can not do without it, immediately after the meal.
I also use sea salt but not a lot. I use Manuka honey 15+, which is very expensive, 250grams/£15.00 in supper markets, the cheapest. It is antiseptic.

If you cook your garlic, you may enjoy the test but lose the medical properties. When you cook fresh vegs, you kill the enzymes. I crush my garlic fresh and mix it with my porridge.
