  That just sounds like you get too much iron from the pill.

  But no, this is still the job of a dietician not a doctor. A GP could give you your bloodwork and send you to a dietician with that. You don’t need a medical degree to be a dietician. It’s simply not the same job.

  (Also spinach is not considered a good iron source because of the low bioavailability of the iron in it. The best sources are mostly animals. If you are vegan it’s probably a good idea to supplement, just like Omega-3)

  No, we already have a shortage of doctors. They are not trained for that and don’t have the time. Doctors should do the chemistry stuff.

  I wouldn’t have a problem with seeing dieticians and personal trainers as part of medical infrastructure, tho.

  In the same way a general doctor will tell you to go see a heart specialist, they could tell you to go see a dietician. It might make sense to even have a session with them covered by health insurance.

  But the training for those jobs is a lot easier and takes a lot less time. Doctors are trained for completely different things and are way more expensive.

  No people do alternative medicines because tiktok tells them to.

  A doctors job is not to be your dietician or personal trainer. You go there to get a pill that fixes your stuff. Everybody knows whether they need better food or more exercise. You don’t need a doctor to tell you that. You can ask them during checkup if there are specific changes you need, but nobody actually does that. How many times do you hear fat people who don’t want to go to the doctor because he’s going to tell them they need to loose weight? It is happening, but people want the pill instead.

  Alternative medicine is a big scam that does a lot of advertising. To the point where the US DHS pushes it now.

  I think the combo of Covid and algorithms broke peoples brain.

  Yes, a very serious talk on how to hide war crimes, not a joke about idiots filming their crimes.

  You got a source for that? Because I’m pretty sure he was making fun of them being stupid enough to film it. Nice deflection tho. Always attack the source, not the claim lul

  I don’t care about the beef, I care about him spreading Russian propaganda. I’m not Ukrainian, but I am European.

  I see every country here fully justified to deny him entry. You can’t be doing propaganda for someone invading a European country and expect to come over and spread it here in person aswell.

  I just link the article because it’s the best sourced writeup of Pikes views on Ukraine I found on quick notice.

  To your point about free speech: It doesn’t include coordinated disinformation campaigns. If you don’t fight against those, democracy fails. Just look at America or even the rise of the AfD in Germany.

  Since I don’t think fungi have a social structure, those are sexes.

  Humans have two Sexes but also gender expression, conflating those is how transphobes come to their views.

  I think this basically just tests how heavy chromosomes/DNA-strands are. By that you can see how long they are. The many lines on the side are the reference-ladder.

  The clear lines in the second pic indicate a very clean sample of similar length DNA, while the smears in the first indicate some form of contamination.
