Funny, but I noticed the pandemic took a lot of public bathrooms & sinks out of service. We forgot the fecal to oral route has killed more people than one new virus ever will. Still don't see soap in restrooms as often as I did before. Public too simple to recognize multiple threats, or what?

Mine is like Brawndo: It has what plants need. Theirs might be just N,P, and K from commercial fertilizer. So, yeah, I bet they want mine for themselves. :)

One of my party facts is that according to polls, Americans believe foreign aid is about 25% of the federal budget and on average that it *should* be about 10%.

The actual number is less than 1%.

Foreign aid has long been a boogey man of the right, so it's not surprising they're vilifying it now.

Nutritional failure is the norm among MDs when most med schools teach very little about nutrition, as they do.

In theory, yes. But, until I had an orthomolecular physician, I was not even tested for any mineral deficiencies other than iron.

In practice: Orthomolecular for the win.

Politics doesn't determine science. I studied epidemiology and biostatistics in grad school and was taught how to do literature review. I don't have time to repeat any of these analyses, but if you do, let's see your version before you scoff at the ones I've linked above.

Abram Hoffer tended to prescribe 1 gram of niacin, 3 times per day (3 grams daily) but I avoid taking so much that it ever stops causing a flush. We only flush when deficient, but I want to flush every single time.

Orthomolecular is the furthest thing from woo woo. If you want to learn how to do something, ask someone who knows how. If you want to know how to prevent & treat disease with natural substances, ask those who do it. www.doctoryourself.com

The intentional flush (vasodilation) from niacin was written about by Klenner, who credited Moore (1940) for this application.

When I take enough niacin to get the flush (vasodilation) it works as a decongestant for me, in my sinuses, tonsils, and lungs, at least.
