The Moonshiner's Leghorns

[ShrekDawg]

Thank you! He is just now feeling a little better today. He went outside today and helped me butcher a turkey and we all moved some of the juvenile chickens to a large grow out pen. I sold some turkeys yesterday and rearranged some birds so I could use one of the large turkey runs for the Leghorn growouts.

Glad he’s feeling better!

There's definitely a dose response and the research I'm aware of is for higher doses long term. It was a psychiatrist I worked with who told me that.

I'm sorry you have Covid - that's no fun!

Oh okay. Thank you.

And thanks! It does suck but I’m mostly better now. No smell is weird though but I can still taste.

Yes microplastics are absolutely in everything we consume, especially processed pre-packed foods. I listened to a neurology podcast that said every adult human alive right now has enough microplastics in their body to be equivalent to a plastic spoon.

So, avoid microwaving food in plastic tupperware and avoid plastics where you can, but you would spend a fortune and drive yourself crazy trying to avoid microplastics entirely. You would have to limit yourself to fresh and whole foods only pretty much. Or grow your own foods.

Yeah, I see it as impossible but I still do what I can. I don't completely avoid packaged food, but mostly I cook whole foods, can my own broths and marinara, make sourdough bread. But I don't have endless time and energy.

Last time I had Covid, before I knew I had it, I was returning from vacation and the dogs had been bathed at the boarders. I could not detect any dog smell at all and planned to ask them what amazing dog shampoo they had used. Then I realized I couldn't smell anything else either!

I ran around trying to smell things like coffee, bourbon, lotion - hoping that somehow I was wrong about what was happening.

It won’t come back soon enough for me - I live for warmer weather and everything greening up.
