In search of ways to make this blog more appealing, I thought I would add a quick way for people to interact without the messiness of actually leaving me a comment...the blog poll!
Some context for this poll question: I think most people actually do notice odd smelling urine, but I was just on a website that stated that only 1/2 the asparagus eating population actually notices the odd smell. Apparently the other 1/2 a.) have genes that either prevent them from converting asparagus into this odd smelling liquid or b.) have genes that prevent this from actually smelling this odor when they are doing their business.
Either way, I'm curious to see if my very small blog audience actually ties into the 50% theory.
Answer away!

Hmm....I kind of want to run out and buy some asparagus now. I think I've eaten it maybe once or twice before in my entire life, but can't recall anything odd about the experience.
Young minds NEED to know (especially when they have better things to be doing, like writing papers for finals!)
That's the weirdest question I think I have ever been asked! ?
Hi thanks for leaving those kind words on my blog really appreciate it my advice in a nutshell is watch for sugar that was my downfall I followed a low GI diet which means eating a foods that release there sugar more slowly e.g. apples, some foods convert to glucose more quickly than others. To much glucose causes a rise in insulin if that sugar isn't burnt off it turns to fat. Also insulin makes you hungry so you eat more. Lower glucose foods tend to take longer to break down in your system so you eat less, also eating eggs acts as a appetite supressant as does soup all this stuff is on my blog.
Thanks Mark all the very best with your program be positive you will get there.
