Technically not snake oil.
Drinking snake oil would be crazy
Drink cod oil instead
So this is fun: actual snake oil (the type made by Chinese railway workers) probably had some medicinal benefits. However, white “doctors” co-opted this for their medicine shows; it contained no snake and was just mineral oil, so this is where the term has its origins.
Maintenance Phase podcast did a great episode on medicine shows.
Leeches and blood letting. I mean at this point why not?
Stop spreading misinformation.
You need warm pigeon blood, followed by a strict diet of roasted onions and three hail Marys.
You guys, we are going to need to make a whole new country to get away from this madness.
From the “we take everything except real medicin”-department.
You see, they don’t trust Big Pharma and multi-billion dollar corporations, that’s why they do their “research” using only small artisanal free range websites like Facebook, Twitter and TikTok…
So why are vaccines a “personal choice” (according to RFK Jr.) but abortions aren’t?
Because vaccines aren’t “killing another person”, even though the lack of them DOES kill people, children especially.
Aaaand we just found another contradiction lmfao
So why are vaccines a “personal choice” (according to RFK Jr.)
Oh don’t worry, they’ll get rid of that choice in due time too
RFK jr is obsessed with drinking methylene blue. someone posted a video on reddit a 2 weeks ago of him dropping a mysterious liquid into his drink.
I mean, it’s not the worst thing in the world. In Norway it’s a pretty normal supplement, I’ve taken one tablespoon every(ish) morning in the months with a R in them, but that’s mostly because we don’t really see the sun… so fatty fish is one of the few natural sources of vitamin D we have.
A cod liver isn’t a snake. It can’t be that bad.

Guess someone at the cod liver oil factory was successful at starting a rumour.
But more likely it was some crackpot theory that got amplified.
First person to combine this with crypto will make bank.
So glad we have whole departments of #doctors and #scientists who will give us the truth and the science to help protect our #health… Oh, sorry… that was last year.
This year, the heroin addict in charge of the health department says drink some oil, it will make the imaginary #measles go away.
Technically the vitamin d content would be good for you, but something conservative, holistic, and witch doctor enthusiasts seem to lack is any belief in or understanding of any micro-organism which absolutely won’t lose to your body just because you drank some extra calories.
I’m going out on a limb here and say that Texans generally have no need for supplementary Vitamin D…
You will be able to see who the anti-vaxxers are by the diarrhea shooting out of them.
Man my mother had us take cod liver oil with the usual multivitamin as kids. It tasted kinda bad, but otherwise meh. You know what it wasn’t though? A substitute for fucking vaccines. I just wish they’d had the chicken pox vaccine back then. That shit sucked.
Hmm. There is a small amount of truth to this, it seems, in that it can help the immune system, especially if you had a deficiency to start with.
Also some pretty nasty side effects, particularly if you have too much over a prolonged period of time.
