Some more info on fluoride from Anne! "The whole reason that they found out that fluoride can help prevent cavities is that beginning in the early 20th century, scientists linked high levels of naturally occurring fluoride in certain community water supplies to low levels of tooth decay. Since then, fluorination has been recognized as an easy way to drastically improve oral health. Actually, parts of India, China, and Africa have areas with high natural fluoride levels in their water, and are taking measures to remove the fluoride. Some countries have programs that fluorinate milk instead of water. There has been more recent evidence that suggested pregnant women should not drink fluorinated water, as it may result in lower IQ scores in their children. But, how much is too much - has not been fully determined. Should you - or should you not drink fluorinate water is a different issue than eating a tube of toothpaste. It should be obvious that eating a tube of toothpaste will make you sick. Thanks again!" - Anne

Yeah, it depends on the particular details of the poison and the "state" in which it's stored... Mostly it's about the chemical "reactivity" of the stuff, but things like "volatility" also effect it... Highly reactive chemicals degrade over time, and in many cases there just isn't anything you can do to really change it... They're charged ionically to interact with more and more of the environment around them, to a point that you just can't stop the degradation as bit by bit reacts and turns "inert" over time... Highly volatile chemicals are substances that "vent" into gaseous form over time very easily or at relatively "low" temperatures... You CAN usually slow this process down, but it's not so much that they get less dangerous over time as they just escape containment and the vapors (gas) go away with every breeze... AND some chemicals are inherently hazardous BECAUSE of their timely degradation. In these cases what is normally relatively safe to play with BECOMES MORE dangerous through chemical interactions that produce more and more hazardous chemistry as a result... A fairly common example of this last one is common electronics. They're everywhere and we frequently rely on the electronic products we use everyday to be "safe"... Obviously you wouldn't sit down and eat your smart-phone or Tablet, since that's just silly... BUT frequent over-heating causes the wiring and insulation to break down... Some of those non-conductive materials produce HYDROGEN CYANIDE as a direct result of "thermal decomposition" (commonly burning, even slowly)... It's most obvious in the acrid smell and burning sensations you might get if you're around an electrical fire in a car, since automotive electrics are RIFE with this hazardous (and often under-rated) hazard... NOW, before we go outlawing electronics that can produce Cyanide "ffs"... Relax. Cyanide binds with hemoglobin in your blood and displaces oxygen. That's really how it kills... AND it takes a fair amount of exposure to do the "job"... SO JUST DO NOT hang out in an enclosed car with the electronics smoking up inside for any longer than absolutely necessary... ONCE YOU'RE BREATHING FRESH AIR, you'll recover fairly easily. You might get nauseous or cough for a bit, and oxygen might even be highly recommended, but generally just avoid breathing the smoke... That's where the "bad stuff" is... AND since cyanide smothers you chemically, it takes awhile (3 to 5 minutes average) to actually die of it, though to fall unconscious can be considerably shorter... Worth a note of caution, but cars have been equipped for DECADES with that grade of wiring and little risk posed to most common consumers. ;o)

Very true. Dosage , almost for anything really, is the main point that determines whether you get intoxicated or not. This applies for not only toxic chemicals that you are obviously not supposed to ingest, but also for medication, vitamins or food. Even drinking water can kill you if you were to drink 5-10times the daily recommend amount.

But if you were to take over 5g of paracetamol at once (or more) you would face a serious liver damage within hours and without administering an antidote soon enough, a very painful death.

@@SMJSelena Its a brown, one inch spider with a sort of violin on its abdomen. Also, brown recluse bites won't kill you unless you're allergic. The problem with brown recluse bites is the fact that the venom can cause necrosis at the site of the bite, which could develop into sepsis if not treated with antibiotics, but the venom helps stop the necrosis. On the other hand, It's really men that should be scared of this spider, because it can cause the pp painfully swell. So if you're a girl, just go to the hospital, or at least have antibiotics on hand to kill of any potential infects after washing the necrotic wound. If you're a man, be ready for 4 hours of pain and possible permanent damage. Remember, Black Widows have a more potent venom, and if you get bitten by one, HOSPITAL IMMEDIATELY!

If you feel sick 30 minutes after eating something, almost definitely you just ate a bit too much and your stomach isn't quite used to it. Or maybe you're slightly allergic.

My mom was bitten by a brown recluse and didn't know it until a few hours later when she was in the er. At 8months pregnant she started the morning being able to walk with a bit of pain, by 12pm she was in the ICU her leg almost having go be amputated due to her developing a neputizing fasulitis that was eating away at the muscle in her leg. Ended up having an emergency c-section, 4 years later and she's still not 100% but she is very lucky to have been able to keep her leg at all. Walking is still hard and her leg swells at random but it's better than the alternative

Rule #1 when foraging for anything: Leave it be if you cannot identify it with 100% certainty. In my opinion, taking kids foraging actually teaches them to not just put stuff in their mouths. We were never allowed to take anything if mum (or grandma) wasn't sure what it was. My mum has also taught us how to identify the poisonous stuff just as a precaution (like looking at the underside of a mushroom, looking for certain discolorations etc). It was tons of fun and I've loved foraging ever since.

I will never forget the time my boyfriend and i were walking through his schools field, when he saw a quaint little mushroom on the ground. I remember squeaking in terror as he folded over to put it in his mouth. He didn’t even pick it he just “ *slurp* “ I was less worried about it being poisonous and more worried about the fact it was in a school field where people, animals, and bacteria ran around all day but yeah he’s still alive.

On that note, how are these set up? Do they ask for e.g. “questions” or “comments”? If they ask for questions, I can see the type of person who’d argue with someone who’s very knowledgeable about their area about facts (notably 9:33 gives those vibes). It’s one thing to ask “I heard this, is it true?” and another to state with certainty that it _is_ true… With that said, these days it’s easy to spread misinformation and fictional “facts”, which is annoying to put it (very!) mildly

I just want to say that I watched this video for the first time 2 nights ago (I've been binging the tech support vids), and when Anne discussed calling poison control for a suspected poisoning, I thought "eh, better write that number down just in case" and paused the vid to add it into my phone notes. Well, just today, my mother came into my room panicked because she realized she had accidentally doubled her 100mg dose of Losartan ( -a blood thinner- comments below corrected this lol). I called poison control and the lady on the line was so helpful in both calming her down and informing us about the situation. Thankfully my mom is fine, she just felt dizzy and has to drink fluids/wait 24 hrs before taking another dosage. I just can't believe the timing, it's crazy. Be safe out there y'all.
