    no so much,

    not dissolve, it is changed in your body to coat and smooth out the stones, vs rough edges (as I mentioned previously) making them easy to pass,,

    and kidney,, the liver is for filtering beer

    the truth is , re the calcium in OJ and whatever else, is it is a marketing campaign to get more sales, thinking folks will think it is healthier than it already is,

    not really sure how much calcium is absorbed thru OJ,, but I am not a doc, (but I have stayed in a Holiday Inn, just not last night)

    Well that ain't good.

    You may have to become like a lot of older women and not declare any more birthdays.

    A stroke can be worse than having a heart attack.

    That was going on 3 yrs ago, along with total hip replacement in '96, and pulling all the muscles in my lower back in mid '80's I can still get my own firewood.
    Well it's a little dryer and slowly warming. Won't be long before me and the grandson can go to our backwoods shooting range and waste some bullets.

    It doesn’t sound like the stroke caused any permanent damage. Good for you. The are no wasted bullets, only wasted opportunities. Tell us what you and the grandson like to shoot.
