Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.

Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
YT just took down Trump's NC speech a few minutes before he was finished.
Has anyone tried the search engine Luxxle.com? Playing a little tonight and I am pleased so far with the results I'm pulling up.

This is an informative video on POTASSIUM by Dr. Berg...99mg. of potassium is not a very high dose at all...there are a lot of things associated with low K2 and the balance of electrolytes in the body (which..there are underlying causes of hypokalemia)...so you should read as much as you can about it so that when your doctor gives you your bloodwork results you have an understanding of the issues...I hope you get your body in balance...it really does suck to not feel well...hope you get well soon...

Dr. Berg was a great warrior during 2020 hysteria, put out lots of good info on big pharma and gov't corruption.
I took my husband off Verapamil because it interacts with so many other drugs and I wanted him to be able to take Ivermectin if he got covid. I think you may have been on metoprolol...I took that very short term years ago because my heart was skipping beats...got off of that pretty quickly and you have to be careful to slowly decrease...but all is well now...
I am 72 and only take vitamins, herbs, supplements and use many alternative remedies. I suffer from some of the same things as you but I always use alternative things to deal with issues...the more you read...the more you learn and knowledge is power...my doctor is OK with whatever I do because he respects my knowledge of alternative healthcare and respects my choices...
Dr. Berg has many great videos and he is one of the most intelligent men I know....I would just encourage you to read to the best of your ability about any drugs you take and their side effects and also any conditions you have and conventional and alternative treatments (if you want to be off drugs)...it is certainly a journey but it is very rewarding to be in charge of your own healthcare...especially as you get older...God bless you and yours...
Don't forget when you have symptoms of something you want to look at the overall context of what else your body is telling you...especially as it pertains to any vitamin/mineral deficiencies...I would not take Gatorade because of the sugar even though it contains electrolytes and I wouldn't take sugar free because I do not like chemical sweeteners...health and nutrition are very complex and sometimes doing something like starting off taking a good multi vitamin/mineral works wonders. Adding D/K, magnesium and C is also very smart. I find that supplementing with some of the most important vitamins/minerals has corrected some of the disease states I have experienced. I also very much suggest NAC which I have taken since I had covid....a great amino acid with LOTS of great benefits...
Wow, good to know. Hope you’re doing alright now.
It is 48 here this morning, we are getting much needed rain, NE has been in a drought for the past couple of years, today feels like a normal northern vermont late spring, June is typically rainy, just not this chilly. Gardeners curse, we need the rain but we also have a short growing season and want to be out in the garden. Planting lots of medicinal herbs this year, Hyssop, Yarrow, Skullcap, Valerian,Cannabis, and, I admit I am a plantaholic and my life could become unmanageable, I wanted lots of Lavender, a long row of it, so the individual plants would be pricey, I bought a flat of Lavender plugs, Munstead, because it can over winter.72 of them cost as much as 20 larger plants. Luckily many of my peers (old lady gardeners) have come forth to barter with me . I will probably plant about 50 of them. I have this romantic idea of having an enormous amount, get bees, and make Lavender Honey. There is a market for stuff like that. Trying to get my son into thinking about an apiary. Our little plot of Eden is buzzing and alive, despite the clouds and rain, the smoke from Quebec has moved on to points south and east.
I found an interesting YT channel called White House on the hill. This family raises bees. I’m not sure if you mean just attracting bees or actually having hives but I’ve learned a lot about the process on this channel, among other things family farm related. It’s my dream to have one. Good luck, your plans seem amazing.

Thank you! For now, we are attracting, use no pesticides at all. I would like to have the hives, but it's my son who would be building them and maintaining them, trying to steer him in that direction.
Not a warm day, but not too cold a day either. It's winter where I live.
The sad thing is, although it gets miserable cold, it never snows here. It just gets wet cold. If we got snow, at least you can rug up or have fun outside.
Ah, the sacrifices we make for family.....
If I was living this far north, without snow it would be so dreary. Despite the cold, deep snow insulates and protects. But it's almost summer here, and I do not want to think about snow, for now. We have 9 months of winter and 3 months of poor sledding, as the oldtimers used to say. Actually, it is 3 months of good growing season, 1 month of glorious autumn, 1 month of harvesting, 1 month of "stick season" 4 months of snow, 2 months of mud.
Was bitterly cold where I am this last week. Went outside to feed my cows and horses a little earlier and the winds a bit chilly ,definite beanie weather. Looks like we have some rain coming too. Stay warm fren.
Why is there no mention of Trump’s J6 leadership? Are they saving it for when this B.S. indictment falls through?
