COVID numbers rising with milder symtoms. Some Thai doctors say "possible dangers of COVID-19 vaccines"

That's my conclusion after reading recent news articles on the subject.

Have not heard of any local cases. 

Heard from friends around Bankok and south who are experiencing the illness

THAILAND'S POLLUTION

On a recent vacation traveling to Bangkok from the south by car, the air pollution was very visible. 

Car traffic at times was backed up for many kilometers.

Pot Nausea

Some selfclaimed experts in the field of Marijuana Consumption will claim "NO HARM!" They are very wrong. 

It's different from person to peson. My mother complained of nausea after smoling a joint (three decades ago). And swore to never touch the stuff again. 

Heard of a similar experience a friend recently went through.

I have some weed with my morning coffe and get slightly nauseated each morning. The problem dissapears as soon as I eat solid food. 

 

According to various articles, marijuana smoke tends to irritate the stomach lining, causing stomach discomforts and dausea. Severe cases can lead to repeated vomiting (moreso in younger users according to some research). 

Probably explains some of my stomach problems

Healthy dining on local mushrooms

Local friends have gone into mushroom farming, hoping for lucrative results. 

I've always included mushrooms in my home cooking in soups, stew, or fried with onions. Great accompaniment for a steak.

When frying in butter or olive oil, expect shringage, as mushrooms are nearly 85% water

In soup I prefer buying a variety of mushrooms blended together and with garlic and thymes.

Locally grown, so you should discover local discounts
