A more accurate indicator would be life expectancy since we talking health and we have a lower life expectancy than comparable nations and even some more poor than us
79 yrs vs 82.
We also have higher rates of disease and mortality from them vs comparable nations.
No not the very bottom.
But who copies the test of the 10th smartest kid in class

Again, you’re just making an argument for socialized medicine lol…
Plenty of easy to understand factors why the US has more disease than other developed nations and fertilizer has zero to do with any of them.
I never said it did.
I only posted the original story link for those it may concern. Then the convo went to fluoride and salt and other things. Those were the comments I was replying to.
And fluoride and iodized salt and milk and vaccines are the reason we don’t live as long as the Japanese?
They sometimes add deworming pesticides to salt in some Asian countries like India and China…bet y’all would lose your fuckin’ minds on that one LOL
What and how we eat are absolutely the biggest reason we are so unhealthy as a nation. And when you are unhealthy you probably not gonna live as long as you could have barring unnatural cuases.
Shitty diet (primarily high sugar intake), poor healthcare, and sedentary lifestyles have zilch to do with fluoridation, iodine, vaccines, dairy, and fertilizer.
People on here love to criticize the USA and it’s fair to do so, it just has nothing to do with what we’re taking about.

I do know this as fact…
My sister died in December, they list it as covid. No mention of the fact she was 5 foot 2 inches, and 400 pounds. I know Damn well what killed her, and it sure was not coviid. Far different dieing from it, or dieing with it.
That alone, makes everything else those people say, worthless lies to me.

Sit around all day eating sugar then sit around all night drinking beer get diabetes then have to ration your insulin because you can’t afford it.
Then open a bootleg insulin dispensary. They exist. It’s terribly sad to see an old lady not being able to afford her insulin. It’s a tragedy.
But yes fertilizer bad and injurious. Especially synthetic.

Thank you. We had not really spoken for a few years. Love her, but I disagree with the welfare lifestyle, and disability because you are fat.
Its like the obese chick who thought she had a right to try and shame me for no mask…
She cried when I asked her, “So, is that mask where you draw the line for your health? Your not concerned with being so fat? Hm…makes sense you dumb bitch, get the Fuck away from me, your fat smells”
And I do not care how mean or rude it was, you confront me, its on, you stupid s.o.b.
Sorry, off topic. Back to our regular programming…lol

Heavy metals are something to watch out for. I used to volunteer with a group of people who had multiple sclerosis, all wheelchair bound and deteriorating rapidly. Many of these people would be getting all of their old fillings removed with the hope that their conditions were exacerbated by heavy metals. No happy endings in this story though.
There might not be a right answer, but we can all try to make informed decisions about what we choose to ingest.

But business is booming in California’s Orange County Water District (OCWD), through a pioneering wastewater treatment facility that recycles used water – or sewage – and returns it to the drinking supply. The plant is expanding production from 70 to 100 million gallons per day, enough for 850,000 people, around one-third of the county population. As the OWCD output is mixed with the main groundwater supply it reaches over 70% of residents. Hell no and the weed is being watered with this .
I think you should look at how many people are in the prisons, And good ole USA is number 1 by far!
Back on topic here.
I use a dry amendment fertilizer myself as maintaining 100 gallons of soil at this point is a hassle. The one I use is Happy Frog Acid Loving Fertilizer. Anything I’ve grown with it seems to have absolutely no issues when used per instructions for once. Rather than cutting the ratio I followed the Fertilizer instructions for application and maintenence.
The only thing I’d do extra on top of everything I do now is to add a Campden tablet to my water as well as a little star san to get chlorides and such out. Though I’m no longer growing weed atm and just on my garden plants as I’m in the process of trying to move.
