I looked it up and a 5lbs bucket cost about $25.  I dare you to find Gatorade at that price.  So the price is a winner.

The downside is that it's very salty (duh, that's what electrolytes are) but not sugary like Gatorade.  Not a great idea if you already have a pretty high sodium diet - i.e. most humans.  But the guy in question mixes a 1/8oz with a gallon of water, which is highly dilute.  In comparison, a horse is supposed to get 1/2oz to 1oz per day under normal conditions, up to 2oz if very heavy workload and weather is hot/humid.  Imho, that level of caution is probably okay afaik.

That said, the company says "In the interest of social responsibility, we remind consumers that this product, and all of our horse products, are not approved by the FDA for human use or consumption." So, they're aware that humans deliberately consume their product and would rather not get sued if some dum-dum pours 5oz of this stuff into a blender and then has a medical emergency.

Like Ivermectin, it's best to leave the horse stuff to the horses unless a board certified doctor says otherwise.

Racehorses are given Lasix sometimes, so I was surprised when I found out that one of my medications is Lasix (Furosimide).

"There is no shame in having bad days.  Kahless also had bad days.  But bad days must be fought and conquered.  Bad times come and go, but like Qo'noS, we not only endure, we prosper.  Now repeat after me, "Today is a good day to thrive!"

We 'new atheists' have a reputation for being militant, but make no mistake  we didn't start this war. If you want to place blame put it on the the religious zealots who have been poisoning the minds of the  young for a long long time."

I'm only supposed to take it if I gain several pounds in a short period of time, or if I have swelling in my legs or feet. So I haven't taken any yet, since it hasn't been needed.

Sounds like she's trying to get personal information for nefarious purposes...👀

I can't tell what stands out the most:
FLAIN expansionism
Arf/Erm seas
Mookie the country + Mookie the sea
the butchered pronunciations of Zormany, Yoland, Gorway, and Gweden
Finland and Austria being the only 100% correct things on this map
Lithuania just straight up not existing
Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia all having extremely similar names
Denmark, Poland, Latvia, and Estonia all having extremely similar names

edit - perhaps a stealth pun for Scotland - "sfallavo" is apparently Italian for going the wrong way.
