Isn't sun poisoning technically radiation poisoning? Just curious. Had it once thanks to a sunscreen not working like expected, I hope to never have it again. It was miserable for weeks between the sickness and the pain of sunburn.
I have a paper wasp infestation in the crown of my house. I can't reach it except with jet spray. So I spray two, three times a day, for months on end and some of the wasp spray gets on my hands, or blows back in my eyes. I've wondered what the long term effects might be.
poison: you bite it, venom: it bites you
when i got bad sunburn in the carribean, I applied A and D burn ointment all over, along with neosporin and vitamin E oil. Drank lots of water. I was fine after a week, and my skin didn't fall off. I was burned red all over. No blisters. Thanks for the video, I learned so much. Had no idea what Botox was until now.
A thermometer broke when I was a little kid. My younger sister and I had a great time playing with the mercury. Should I tell my doctor? I'm 71.
A few years ago news reported someone ate a Death Cap mushroom and survived.
A reporter asked her "How did it taste?" [me laughing]
"Really nice," she answered.
How to treat sun poisoning: water poisoning
Phew good to know can poisons counteract each other 🙂
You know, medical research really needs to go all in on bio-scanners. The ability to rapidly diagnose the patient, opening up time for rescue, is paramount.
If doctors knew my dad had proper vitals, but a currently rupturing aortic valve, maybe they could Have not waited 5 hours to start diagnosing
Caught ya, still mad at ya medical field, ya screwed this family big time.
11:47 this was actually my mom’s cause of death. its technically “toxic effect of combined drugs” and not an overdose. how the coroner explained it to me is that, if she had just one of those drugs in her system in the same amount, it would not have caused an overdose & definitely not death. but the “normal” levels of the five drugs in her system were lethal when combined.
Or to the environment…. What? lol
why tf was ‘sucked’ censored lmao
MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE MEMTION!!!!!
No way I got a Botox ad right after talking about botulism
It's espresso, not express-o
I really love her! Overall awesome personality. Very knowledgeable, professional and great sense of humor!
Love the hair metal references
I need one of them brompton cocktails
If poison is expired is it more or less deadly 🤔
Ann, I just discovered you and think you need your own channel! I'm a microbiologist, so this was very interesting to me
I honest to god leapt out of my chair at the MCR reference, that made me SO happy!
What an interesting woman!
Botox has been a miracle for my migraines. It’s the only thing that has worked and I’ve tried EVERYTHING
Still waiting for the day when you guys will do this featuring a food scientist 😢
Jeeze I feel bad for that sheep walking around with a bag of poison on its neck…
I was hoping she would have added " if that girl is poison, it's Bell Bit Devoe".
MCR reference, skips over the horrible damage compound 1080 is known for.
Certifiable dumbass.
"if its party poison, thats my chemical romance" coolest woman alive
Oh don’t eat that.
She missed a great Bell Biv DeVoe reference opportunity.
Things that can kill you:
Lots and lots of water
What to do if you get sun poisoning:
Drink lots and lots of water
Why is she bored?
