  1. I bet, this poor man has picked up a few more picas… Gnawing on wires instead of spaghetti? Superglue for dressing? 🤦‍♀️ Psychological help and education on his health should have been provided, too. Many people, unfortunately, will keep doing stupid stuff, if they are anot explained WHY EXACTLY is that a bad idea.

  2. I love these vids. They make me questions things I've never questioned before and would instantly guide me to the answer slowly by giving me clues. I found smth I don't know, I start finding the answer and then I completely know about it. Love the vids. ✌️!!!

  3. Yikes. I just eat 1 zinc pill a day. No gummy version. I had AWFUL excema on my hands. Nothing worked. Not even prescriptions. The zinc has 100% fixed it. I'm soooo grateful.

  4. In my opinion should be really forbidden to sell those highly concentrated supplements in the form of candy, I doubt anyone would go crazy on it of it just was a disgusting tasting looking pill.
