Here's an article about a family who runs a donkey dairy. It talks about how the family believes it cures and/or treats PANDAS:

https://okcfox.com/news/local/donkey-milk

My guess is that the milk is raw, and that it contains live cells from the donkey, which help to train the immune system. I'm also guessing it contains good milk bacteria. I read an article about how human milk helps babies via the living cells in it; so, that's the inspiration for my thought.

I've reard similar things to this article about other kinds of raw milk and allergies (cow and camel, to be exact). I'm not sure if they compared raw donkey milk to other raw milks (or if they only compared it to pasteurized cow milk). Whatever the case, I'm not skeptical about raw milks, personally, but getting it in pill form might involve other things than anticipated.

It's my personal view that microscope research is one of the most important things a government can fund (i.e. to get better, easier-to-use, and less expensive, microscopes). Just think about it.

By funding it, I don't mean incentivizing via intellectual property (which can slow progress, due to patents making it so no one else can use the idea—that's a problem when the patent-owner can't or won't use the idea).

As this is one of the first posts in this forum, note that this is on-topic because it is about microscopes. Microscopes are objects, and objects are on-topic.

Our horseradish is just barely starting to grow leaves again.

We have a Calendula plant in the sidewalk crack against the house with buds on it already, and it's still winter!

We have borage plants that have been volunteering in the yard already (they've been there for a while now). I didn't know it was so cold hardy.

Adding lemon oil to dish soap makes it so much better, in my opinion—and it makes the soap stay smelling fresher longer. It helps the dishes get squeaky clean, and smell/feel good.

IMO (or according to my nose), dish soap goes bad when exposed to certain things long enough (probably mold, yeast or bacteria), but adding lemon oil seems to prevent this kind of spoilage from happening after opening the bottle (never had a freshly opened bottle be bad). I say it goes bad since it smells a certain kind of bad and makes me feel sick if I use it.

I especially liked adding it to Ajax lemon dish soap, but it works with everything I've tried it in.

As a side note, my new favorite dish soap is perhaps Ultra Palmolive Pure+Clear. Either that or Equate Baby Wash & Shampoo (which isn't advertised as dishsoap, but it works well for it without making dishes slimy). I haven't tried lemon oil in the former (nor had the need), but I have tried it in the baby wash (for using with dishes).

I have chemical sensitivities; so, that's why I use particular dish soaps.

Dawn doesn't seem to be good for me, even fresh. There must be some chemicals in it that don't jive well with me, whether or not baby commercial ducks like it.

Check out the above article, which confirms what I've supposed for some years now.

I didn't know about the properties of white mulberries by 2011, but it definitely could have helped me then (albeit, the flu isn't what I'm thinking about there).
