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 evolving
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
I know you are very proud of your son. Sounds like he’s a smart determined person. That attitude will get him far in life. I’m not that familiar with sea moss. It’s one of the hottest natural products on the market right now. Do your research on it because anything that’s very popular has the potential to attract many scammers. I see it a lot on instagram and Etsy. I do buy tinctures from small businesses that most likely make them in their homes. I do extensive research before buying and ask question's directly to the shop owner before buying. I don’t know anything about sea moss but I see a lot of people selling liquid sea moss. Looks like a green liquid. Adding water to anything that’s not consumed quickly has the potential to grow bacteria that you can’t see. I would seek out reputable supplement companies for the sea moss.
II believe Spirulina is a natural detox. I have taken it occasionally. It has multiple benefits. There’s a green & blue. It also comes from the ocean. That’s one reason I say be careful with the brand of sea moss as well as Spirulina because some areas of the ocean are not as safe as others. I linked below the brand I trust. It’s been a few years since I bought it so research the company.

There’s many herbs that are detoxifying and can be taken as tea, tinctures or supplements. In most cases taking the liquid herb tincture is most effective. I believe that also depends on the reason for taking the herb. I keep many different herbal teas and tinctures on hand in case of sickness.
Thank you very much. I'm saving this info and will look into it with him.
Lately he's been adding pure lemon, ginger and cumin to his daily water bottle.
Unfortunately he was late for school again today. 😞 🤷♂️
