Everything that has side effects, is not a (proper, optimal) solution!

But, some might say, every action has a reaction. But reaction is not a side effect. Side effect is something that could be avoided, perhaps in Frost’s words, by chosing the longer, less walked path.

I have decided to take that path. I have not used (pharma) medication in 12 years. Do I have no health issues? I do. But I (have to) find an optimal solution for each issue. Which is NOT easy.

Simple as: No pain no gain!
