Most people seem very resistant to changing themselves and their habits even when they are in dire straits and the changes, to me anyway, seem easy and even fun in a challenge kind of fun.
Not just food, but financially and all sorts.
But ignorance is a huge problem. We have tiny little brains that know nearly nothing. So it's easy to not even know about vitamin B12, a personally tragic issue.
Here's me, old and wise and on the lookout, just learning about lithium as maybe an essential ingredient like zinc, selenium, magnesium, calcium, potassium, iron, iodine, etc.
39 years ago I got interested in starting a metals testing business for blood samples = very cheap, very easy, no pain, no risk, very reliable. Maybe I should resurrect the idea. The medical cartel makes a big deal about such simple things. So nobody gets tests done unless there's a specific problem such as lead poisoning.
I thought of it because in BP's Sunbury laboratory they had a high temperature inductively couple plasma spectrophotometer which could print 35 metals and semimetals in seconds.
The machine had about 150 samples and it rotated the samples and dipped a little sucker into each sample in sequence. In NZ at the time in our BP lab they had to do one sample at a time and swap detection tubes for each metal to test. So one sample took hours. Mqurice |
