I value the importance of staying hydrated. I have found that using products such as Liquid IV, drinking Gatorade or Powerade, and occasionally enjoying sweet tea are beneficial. However, I am cautious of consuming too much sweet tea due to its high sugar content. I am also mindful of the environmental impact of using plastic bottles for drinks. I believe in balance, so I indulge in a cigar or a few beers occasionally, but I ensure not to overdo it. For breakfast, I prefer using instant oatmeal or grits, as they are less stressful for me in the mornings, although I am aware that they also contain a lot of sugar. I'm glad to see that you are doing well. Keep it up!
@@Sherlockarim I have not heard of many cases of the drug causing liver dysfunction or infertility, but if those are side effects you are experiencing, you may want to try a different drug like Oxbryta.
Hello! I ran across you video titled “Joni Olaghere On Being “Cured” From Sickle Cell Disease With CRISPR Gene Therapy”. I subscribed. My younger son & daughter bother have (SC) Sickle Cell Disease. My daughter has a UA-cam channel also but now is starting to focus more on embracing the fact that she IS a Sickle Cell Warrior & wants to spread awareness. She has started to develop some different issues as she’s growing older. It gets very depressing to her & having to really watch her food intake & scared to exercise because being afraid of a pain crisis. I’m looking forward to watching your videos.
@@kwasijunia3344 sorry I’m not sure what country you reside in and I don’t believe it’s best to depend on the government to take care of your sickle cell
@@kwasijunia3344 If you live in the United States I would start the process by filing for disability. You may need to get a lawyer involved, and that will subtract from your overall total, but it is better than nothing. I was foolish and let my family get their hands on a good 4,000 that I'll never see again. Once you get disability guard that money with your life. Don't lend out one red cent.
Great way to kick off Sickle Cell Awareness month!
@@chrisnortonjr yes I agree Chris!
