The body doesn't store ammonia. The liver processes ammonia to urea which is excreted in urine if you have liver issues then you would get high levels of circulating ammonia which would cause hepatic encephalopathy.

you realise vaccines don't create superbugs. With bacteria like MRSA it was created through over and improper use of antibiotics.

There was a paper done in Austalia/NZ within the last 2 years that looked at the effect on the body of excercising in the morning without eating and that for men it did work to burn more fat but it put women into starvation mode so when they ate afterwards they gained fat due to survival stuff and women having kids etc I…

when you start vigourous excercise you body turns fat into muscle which weighs more if your lucky you stay the same weight and then you start to lose. i've been marothon training and in the last month lost 3 inches from my waist but gained half a stone its frustrating but the weight will come off just have to keep going

when you sweat you also lose essentail ions sodium potassium magnesium and calcium which your body needs for muscle and heart function so its best to pee it out also keeps your kidneys and urinary tract healthy!
