@pietomaton@allie__voss How are your suggestions less "cosplay"? If you're able to walk for 10+ min, using a wheel chair will decondition you & make POTS worse. The difficulty is more w/standing stationary for long periods, not w/ walking, b/c contracting calves help return blood to the heart.
@jlonga1@allie__voss Any virus! Also vaccines. The HPV vaccine caused so many debilitating cases in young women that the pattern was undeniable. There was a 2015 Danish documentary about it called The Vaccinated Girls - Sick and Abandoned, though you have to dig to find it now because of censorship.
@draognjpeg@post_punk_dude I have a history degree. Between farming, hunting, and foraging, European peasants had a better diet (and teeth!) than most of us do today.
@AlamusPrime@allie__voss This is not universal. There are multiple underlying causes for POTS, e.g. hypothyroidism or adrenal insufficiency. I have POTS and have zero issues with propioception (balance and coordination). I just can't maintain sufficient blood pressure to be upright for long.
@TOAA_SA@floatingwordist That is not less vague. Do you mean as in the value of labor a wife provides went up, so culture became more restrictive/stigmatizing towards divorce to keep women from leaving and taking her labor with her?
@urarabm0m@ArchonAvalon Look up 'ruqyah.' It's nearly identical to some Appalachian granny magic, only using Qur'an verses for healing and protection instead of Bible verses. Granny magic was brought over from Ireland & Scotland in the 1600s, so you know that's untouched by new-age/maybe-satanist magic.
@millerthedoer B/c their circadian rhythm isn't screwed up like ours are. They go to sleep at sunset, as we should, and wake up at sunrise, as we should.
@ArsAlendi@lisatomic5 A lot has been made of phytoestrogens, but there is better evidence for higher dietary iodine from eating more seafood and seaweed! You can paint iodine over breast and ovarian cysts to shrink them, and iodine deficiency is linked to breast cancer. US RDA only prevents goiter.
@lisatomic5@ArsAlendi The risk w/ dense (usually smaller) breasts is that it makes it a lot harder to see small cancers. The tissue on the right appears solid white; they only spotted the cancer was b/c it was sticking out of the dense area. The fatty (larger) breast is more transparent to imaging.
@SherryLuvsIdaho Is it maybe MCAS (mast cell activation syndrome)? If so, it might be an immune overreaction to foods or environmental triggers. It can cause all sorts of reactions, including flu-like aches & fatigue, itchy rashes, and hives. Antihistamines help, but eliminating triggers is best.
@a_dose_of_wx Oh yeah, 'cause that fridge and EV are going to work GREAT after the whole grid has gone down. π Don't fear warnings from people who don't know the basics of a CME.
@johnhawkinsrwn It's not a failure. Productivity didn't decrease. But middle management has trouble justifying their overseer jobs and office real estate is on the verge of collapse, w/ major property management co.s facing bankruptcy. Abandoned buildings = blight, crime.
@normanill_@369_md Paint topical iodine on your skin over where your ovaries are, and cut out as much sugar and refined carbohydrates as you can. Breast and ovarian cysts can be an iodine deficiency, and PCOS is a form of early diabetes.
@vagrantronin@Rainmaker1973 Birds use the earth's magnetic field to navigate, so once on land and rested it can resume it's journey. The danger of getting blown out to sea is being too far out to fly back, getting exhausted, falling into the ocean, and drowning or getting eaten. He'll be good now. π
