  • The search term you want is “pulsatile tinnitus.” Many people hear it when our heart is pounding, in my case it was one of several symptoms that led to realizing I was very anemic. It can have serious causes like high blood pressure or a tumor, or more minor ones like sinus congestion or even just an individual difference of your inner ear. An otolaryngologist (ENT or Ear-Nose-Throat doctor) can help determine if there’s anything to treat or worry about. But nobody is going to look for it unless you bring it up.





  • Since it’s important for health to consume some of the green stuff, it’s helpful to find out how you dislike it least. For instance, cooked spinach is just as revolting as raw, but you only have to swallow about a quarter of the amount because of shrinkage. Broccoli and Brussels Sprouts are better if you roast them until they mostly taste like brown. And shrinkage happens there, too.

    Zucchini is a green vegetable that’s less offensive imho, and can hide in a spaghetti sauce without ruining it.

    Don’t go with any recipe that “celebrates the delicious flavor” of anything you don’t already like.

    You can also be your own mom and puree veggies into the gravy/sauce of your meat.

    Anyway, good on you for eating the veggies first. It’ll also start filling you up, so the steak will feel more satisfying.
