Reply to New review finds that rocket emissions in the upper atmosphere can affect the ozone layer but are not regulated — Global annual launches grew from 90 to 190 in the past 5 years, and an upsurge in rocket launches may potentially undo decades of work to save the ozone layer by marketrent

Sigh.

Jet Engines repopulate the upper layers. They spray 'em, the atmosphere schmears 'em.

The proper fuels matter of course, but I'm sure someone will figure that out if they haven't already.

Reply to Vitamin D supplements linked to reduced risk of suicide, study of veterans finds by thebelsnickle1991

I recently found out I have a vitamin D deficiency, Street my psychiatrist ordered blood tests for that and several other things.

I'm on a massive dose of a prescription supplement and hopefully things will turn around because I've been dealing with really hefty depression for quite a while now and things have been looking very bleak.

To not here. Vitamin D should or even must be paired with K2. Vitamin D on its own goes to your blood and fatty cells. Pairing K2 with Vitamin D moves it to the bones and teeth. Essential it’s where it is putting the calcium in your body. So if you were to say prone to heart conditions or breathing Vitamin D alone can worsen those conditions. Matched with K2 alleviates this problem and puts the calcium where it belongs.

Vitamin D is one of two common supplements that has really helped me. The other is magnesium (anything but oxide, body won’t absorb it, I take glycinate.)

Had my doc recommend two others that seem to be helping as well, but I’m still journaling how I feel when I do and don’t take them.

Not wanting to die can be a job itself these days for some reason.

As a vet with PTSD, my worst downward spiral was when my Vit D was the lowest it’s ever been. I had to be put on max doseages for 6 months and will be taking a daily supplement the rest of my life to make sure it doesn’t happen again. Vit D, at least in my body, absolutely improves depressive symptoms.

There were veterinarians in Saudi! I guess they were vet vets. They took care of the MWDs, military working dogs. They were trained to take down bad guys, but most of the time they were sniffing the vehicles that local Nationals drove on base with. One guy had some fertilizer traces in his vehicle that an MWD indicated on. I got the opportunity to put on the padded suit and get attacked by one, they're no joke. Very well trained though!
