Never been to a doctor before as an adult. In fact, for the longest time, I was the type of person who planned to never go as I don’t want or need medication. However, I have a keen interest in nutrition and the prospect of having a blood test done could serve as a helpful tool to improve my health.

My Vitamin D was measured at 86 ng/mL with the reference range being between 30 and 100. Currently sitting at the high end of optimal.

I was very curious to see this measure as I have been taking 25,400 IU of oral vitamin D3 daily for the past 120 days with generally 1 hour weekly of sunbathing upon the Great Lakes region (when possible) sporting northern European fair skin.

I had a suspicion that oral supplementation alone would be insufficient for optimal levels but it appears they have worked just fine. 25K IU sounds like a high dosage but I have a firm belief the move from mcg to IU was in an intentional effort to help worsen the health of the general public while simultaneously scaring people away from sunshine. I combine D3 supplementation with K2, magnesium citrate, and vitamin A from a quality multivitamin while adhering to a carnivore diet.

I would suggest everyone here supplement vitamin D3 at a much higher dosage than the RDA.

I always found Plato frustrating, because real world experience (aka History) provides so many counter examples to his arguments-in-a-vacuum. "Bro, listen bro, in a high-trust, homogenous ethno-state, bro..."

No, olive oil is not a seed oil.

Part of Operation Silent Night, this man with a wife and children had his homestead farm raided by the ATF over some Chinese filters he purchased online.

His lawyer was incompetent and represented him poorly. The ATF was able to frame things in such a way that the jury found him guilty.

End the Fed, abolish the ATF.

... in a not-so-tiny nation called Spain, a nursing home had a nasty virus get into it.

It was March of 2020. The nasty virus was called Covid-19. And this nursing home, like so many others all over the world, was full of elderly, morbid people. The mean age of residents was 85 and 48% were over 80 years old. It was a killing field, like so many others.....

Within three months 100% of the residents had caught the virus. Not presumed to have -- proved to have.

How do we know this? Because almost every one of them seroconverted. All but three out of 84 of them, to be precise.

Think about that last sentence for a second.

1. Early start of treatment, regardless of the severity of patient symptoms.
- Antihistamines every 12 h: dexchlorpheniramine 2 mg, cetirizine 10 mg or loratadine 10 mg.
- Azithromycin 500 mg orally every 24 h for 3 days if there is rapid improvement, and for 6 days if the duration of symptoms is prolonged.
- If pain or fever, acetaminophen 650 mg/6–8 h.
- Nasal washing and gargling with sodium bicarbonate water (half a glass of warm water with half a teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate).
2. Patients with mild or recent-onset symptoms (cough, fever, general malaise, anosmia, polymyalgia):
- Antihistamines + Azithromycin (see mild treatment management)
- Levofloxacin 500 mg/12 h, up to 14 days of antibiotic treatment from diagnosis.
- Mepifilin solution, 50 mg/8 h as a bronchodilator, until subjective improvement. Patients with previous lung disease (asthma or COPD) used their usual bronchodilators.
- If the patient experienced increased breathing difficulty, prednisone 1 mg/kg/day divided into two doses until clinical improvement, and then it was slowly tapered down.
3. If symptoms of severity (dyspnea, breathing difficulty, mild or moderate chest pain, with SpO2 >80%, heart rate <100 beats per minute at any time of the process):
4. Prophylactic treatment for close contacts, including all asymptomatic residents:
- Antihistamines at the same dose as symptomatic patients.

I’m mostly thinking ammo here. Besides all your 9 and 223, why not have something you can trade with? Say, some .380, or some .32. Maybe some .44.

Just a thought.
