      More people should. 1) it’s a great show, 2) you learn stuff like you just said. 🎉🎉🎉

    This is like the lactose tolerance gene. People for hundreds of years drank this bovine baby food out of desperation, enduring burning liquid **** just to survive and now, cow milk is a great source of vitamins and minerals(mostly calcium). Sadly, my lactase production is subpar, so I feel for those ancient pioneers. Btw you look great with the short hair, Jim. Keep up the charming content, please.

      Actually things like the production of yogurt, butter and cheese greatly reduced the amount of lactose so even lactose intolerant people could eat dairy as long as it was processed.

    Never flushed a wet wipe, I find it weird that people do that and much worse. A friend of mine is a plumber, he got called out to a house where one of their guests had flushed a baby’s nappy! 🤯

    It took a long time before the cesspit would fill up ...what a difference to the disposable culture of today's society.
    I wonder- if we had to dispose of our rubbish on our own property instead of sending it off to some unknown landfill, would we be so keen on the one time use products? (I know, not realistic, but it should make us pause and think about it )

    There is a theory that our gut is so used to intestinal parasites through the ages that there can be a symbiotic relationship. Gut worms are now being used to ease the symptoms of ulcerative colitis and crohn's in some people.

    You know, for a land without many snakes the migration era Nordic peoples sure had a lot of snake, serpent, and dragon stories. Now I want to know if the worms have some part in that. "Behold, Ulfar! 'Tis Jormungandr! 🍑🪱"

      @HOLYFEAR96 Entertaining notion, but so wildly implausible as to beggar credibility. All evidence for the existence of non-avian dinosaurs disappears from the fossil record tens of millions of years before that fossil record suggests our simian ancestors evolved into anything remotely resembling mankind. In any event, the only dinosaurs living among Migration Period Norse-speaking peoples would have been domestic chickens, hunting falcons among the aristocracy, and the occasional imported peacock (a skeleton of which was found in the Oseberg ship burial mound).

    We have no idea how bad parasidic (sp?) worms were in the past. Not only intestinal but also in the skin. I learned about it when studying herbal remedies from the past. So many concoctions for expeling worms.

    Never flushed a baby wet wipe, I did flush those that say that can be flushed but I've since stopped it because I don't think they're as biodegradable as they say 👀 a bit of baby cream on your toilet paper is your friend...

    Genetic development in a group is defined by those people that don’t die from the disease. So, Vikings were naturally selected for those that had physical traits that could deal with the intestinal worms. Those that couldn’t must’ve died _before_ they passed on their genes. In childhood, as babies, prior to pregnancy. That’s a thing worth noting.

    • @Meskarune
      @Meskarune 21 день тому

      Actually no. Genetic develope comes from those who breed before dying from a disease. As long as you didn't die before puberty you could pass on all sorts of shitty genes.

    I have flushed wet wipes that say they can be, and are almost like paper anyway. I need to wipe as I have health problems. Trouble is, I started to react to the stuff on those wipes, so now just wet the loo roll, and hope it does not break away in my crack. I wish I had the money and room for a proper bidet.

    Is there a connection to this worm resistance and a seemingly inhuman ability to digest almost anything without fear of evacuatory issues? Asking for a friend, lol!

    • @ladykarolyn1
      @ladykarolyn1 3 місяці тому +3

      In fairness, they didn't have the instruments to accurately measure the internal temperature of their food like we do (nor did they know the magic number to kill bacteria/parasites), a cookfire is more variable in heating than modern stoves, and they were more likely to eat food that looked a bit dodgy to begin with because they couldn't run down to the shop for a pound of hamburger if they tossed this out. I think maybe those same factors might come into play where parasites are still common in modern times. Not everyone has access to the knowledge or tools that make it easy for you and me to safely prepare our food.
