After over five days of being completely unable to hear from my left ear due to an ear #infection, hearing has partially been restored to it. I've been taking #antibiotics for three days and I've also been breathing mist infused with #thievesoil from a diffuser. Ever since I read the research paper from #Poland from the NIH about the #antimicrobial properties of thieves oil, I've been of the opinion that it could make a good supplement to a course of antibiotics. This seems to confirm it.

My ear #infection is still going after being on antibiotics for two days so I decided to use a diffuser with thieves #essentialoil as well. I never bought into #essentialoils and just assumed they were new age quackery, until I read a paper from the NIH that showed that they actually had antimicrobial properties. So I bought some and now I'm trying it out. Hopefully, this will help a bit with recovery. #illness #alternativemedicine

"To give some idea of what banning #fluoride might look like, Calgary, Canada, banned fluoride in 2011. In the eight years afterward, the need for intravenous antibiotic therapy for children to avoid death from #infection skyrocketed 700 percent at the Alberta Children’s Hospital."

Tipping culture is annoying, unfair and worst of all American

In the US, I was asked to tip after buying a single banana. To my horror, tip-creep is spreading in #French bars & restaurants

As an American living in Paris, I’m not sure when I first started having moments of culture shock visiting the US

But there are 2 American practices that now irritate me no end: sales tax not being included the price of items, & tipping.

Pisa, la sala operatoria non è sterile e lei muore per due batteri killer: ospedale risarcirà un milione

Una donna di 65 era stata operata con successo dopo un emorragia cerebrale, poi l'infezione fatale. Per i giudici i medici non hanno nessuna colpa,  l'ospedale invece non avrebbe applicato tutte le misure preventive necessarie

Che cosa succede quando si trattiene abitualmente il gas intestinale?

A causa dello stress di un gonfiore costante, nel colon possono formarsi piccole sacche chiamate diverticoli e c'è il rischio che si sviluppi un'infezione. Ecco perché il gas deve sempre uscire

Translated:
What happens when intestinal gas is habitually held in?

Because of the stress from constant bloating, small sacs called diverticula can form in the colon and there is a risk of infection developing. That's why gas must always be released.
