Hi Rhianne, awe sorry to hear that, sleep is so important to your immune system, are you keeping your Magnesium up. You stay safe too hun I worry about you being there in the city.

I forgot to take Magnesium. I’ve been so beat the last few days! Trump wanted to quarantine us more, but everything in my area is closed and it’s so empty. I’m not sure what it will do. He should put Manhattan into isolation for now. That’s where it’s really bad.

I ordered a liquid supplement called Floradix which has vitamins and herbs. It’s high in iron. The last bottle I had helped a lot, but it’s a bit pricey.

I also got some Bobs Red Mill Whey protein powder. I think I can use the protein.

Be careful, Jimi. I hope you are doing well and feeling good!

Very wise to take vitamins every day through this, glad to see you are doing that. Yes I am afraid it might come to full blown marshal law in some town but some people just won't self contain. I worry a lot about you living in the city, please be very careful:hug::hug: and try not to go out any more than you just HAVE TO;)
We're being extra careful, only goin out when we just have to. This is the first disaster of this magnitude that we have seen in our lifetime.

The last thing this bad was WW2, I think. I read about the million reservists called up! :wth: Totally creepy! It’s like a war.

Good afternoon Family:wave:
I hope everyone is havin a great day:)
Good to see you are all stayin healthy:D
Checked out my garlic and it's growing good, nice to see things starting to grow, give us hope;)

How’re you doing, Jimi? Ooh, you’re lucky to have fresh garlic! How’s the rest of the garden? Stay safe, my friend. There’s nothing to see outside, so please only go out for something you really need.
I ordered a bunch of stuff from Vitacost and they told me that part of it shipped. Two jars of nut butter and two bottles of Dr. Bronners! :giggle:

Hi Rhianne, how you doin today? I am doin pretty good thank you for asking my friend. Yes it is especially since 95% of store bought garlic is from China:eek:. Well I haven't tilled it yet, the garlic was planted last fall for this summer harvest.:). I haven't been goin out other than just around the yard, nothing out "there" for me:giggle:.
Good, I sure don't like the thought of you going out into the war zone to get anything. Glad you can do that:cool:

I thought it was funny getting only soap and almond butter, though. At least I’ve got other stuff to eat! Lol

I’m getting my garlic from Local Harvest so I’m hoping it’s not from China. Now this country better think about growing a lot more of our own food, like it used to imho.

China would send us food contaminated with heavy metals and other poisons, and not give a shit. The US needs a trusted clean food supply!!

Chances are that it is still from China:eek:. We use to be the supermarket of the world:rolleyes: and we get all this imported garbage.:gaah:

How true and most or all of the food that comes from China does contain heavy doses of contamination and heavy metals among other toxins:cuss2: but Americans just keep lapping it right up:facepalm:

Local Harvest is a CSA (community supported agriculture) program that hooks people up with local farms. I found it through the Westin Price foundation site. Afaik, it’s all locally grown. I just hope the seeds didn’t come from China.

I used to buy garlic in the supermarket years ago and then stopped for about ten years. When I bought it again, I noticed it was different. I guess they started using Chinese garlic.

If one thing comes out of this pandemic, I hope it’s that we stop getting everything from China in this country. I don’t trust them!!

Since I live near Gilroy, CA (the garlic capital of the world) we get local garlic here. Back when I had to go to the office I would drive by a processing plant. You can definitely smell it... In July the trucks from the farmers in the central valley heading to Gilroy are loaded with it. Looks like confetti from the dried skins being blown off.

I bet it was strong. We use to have a big bed of garlic out at the farm and come harvest we would cure it in the garage, you couldn't go in there without having your eyes water.

That’s prolly why garlic is anti everything bad!! I hope the stuff I’m gettin is local. But I don’t think Local Harvest are a bad organization. They’re trying to help farms, and start Farmers Markets etc.

We use to see lots of farm stands right on the farms selling veggies but you don't even see that anymore. we have one farm kinda close and one a few towns away that are totally organic but we grow as much as we can ourselves cause then we are sure.
