It's really quite scary how many people will believe claims from someone who has no qualifications on the subject just because they are an influencer. Ivermectin works on mites and other parasitic animals by paralyzing their muscles. Following this logic, it would be analogous to claiming that benzodiazepines cured my friend's broken limb.
But I hear the horse paste is apple flavored!
Fwiw, certain trained professionals who are licensed to practice recommend ivermectin in certain situations.
Methyl blue I heard one talking about how it's interesting and they are evaluating it.
The ones I know are rabid leftists, who hate Trump, fwiw
Ok, I'll tell them that they aren't?
And I should trust you on that instead of people not on the internet, ok lol
My false statement? You seem to be confused, I said nothing false.
Look, I was surprised when she told me about ivermectin and the metyl blue stuff, and I also am dubious that the horse paste does shit, but she is the successful practicing MD who has multiple publications. I'm just a tech person on the internet.
But she did tell me that, there is nothing untrue about the fact that she told me something. You and I can think it does shit, and I'm with you on that, but good luck proving that she didn't tell me that.
The weird knee heel reactions to me just saying a real person who is a doctor told me something is wild.
Let me guess, they're trained chiropractors.
No? Why would they be
Their beliefs in anti-scientific bullshit. So what are they, reiki healers? Homeopaths? Dieticians?
And your beliefs come from where?
The scientific method. You might look into it.
I'm not the doctor I'm talking about, are you?
And yet that is still where my beliefs come from. If you didn't want to know that, I'm not sure why you asked.
You might look into reading more carefully then
Okay, I re-read everything you wrote. I still don't know why you asked a question you didn't want to know the answer to.
Just because you’re on the left and hate Trump doesn’t mean you’re not a fucking moron lmao
You may as well join em
Wow, smart guy here
I read an article about these blue skinned people in the mountains that were given menthol blue to get rid of the blue skin color. I guess it can be ingested safely, but unless you have that genetic condition not sure what it does for you.
Edit: the blue Fugates
To get rid of the blue, add more blue?
