    I heard some dude mention this before. I googled it and didn't find anything to support what he said, but I tried it and it turns out he's right. It was quite interesting what happened! Anyone ever hear of this?

    Morning horn or all night horn.
    ...I get the former most days but will pass on the latter

    High levels of selenium (useful for the biochemical pathway), causing sleepy times.
    Almonds may be just as good (magnesium) for the same.

    Handier as cold-pressed oil, the last thing you want is to wake up with a load of unexpected nuts.

    Were you running around the house like an Olympic pole vaulter or did you just nod off quicker? If the latter, I need no help here. Two rapscallions who wake up at 6AM every Sat/Sun ensure I fall asleep pronto.

    Yeah I actually never have trouble falling asleep. My girlfriend does though and she said she did fall asleep a bit quicker with it. I was pretty surprised tbh!

    I eat brazil nuts practically every day - I can't say I've ever noticed anything apart from they're delicious. What's do you reckon they do?

    It would be "did" this last night.

    Did you wake up horny? I only ate them because I'd another girl coming around in the morning.

    I figure if you're not waking up with morning wood on the regular and you're under 60, then something is likely amiss. If you're under 30 then something probably is.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    Seems irrelevant but ok.

    I noticed zero difference anyway.
