Zika? Seriously?! Dr Greger, the new mouthpiece of the virus-obsessed allopathic medicine / pharma industry. Can’t believe you are too naive to have looked beyond the surface of these virus fairy tales 🤷♂️
Yikes. Anything that can destory plastics or fabrics definitely does not seem safe to put on skin
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Would it be the same efficacy (and products) for ticks?
We are going to need lots of repellent now that Bill Gates is genetically modifying mosquitoes for our "safety". 😡
In Marine Corps training, all recruits had to purchase "skin so soft" and alcohol. We mixed 50/50 as a mosquito repellent and it seemed to work well. Did nothing to stop the sand fleas though!
As long as people clean their hands and don't chug it, it seems reasonable to use deet in high risk areas. I wonder about a mix of lemon eucalyptus oil + DEET now. Might have a nice smell plus push back nasty bites. Though, we might also gain a lot of intel from just stuying people that never get bitten like myself vs those that attract the beasts. Now, everyone will agree we need something for sandflies and horse flies, those are straight hell beasts
This channel lately seems stuck on uninteresting topics.

It's pretty plain & simple kids…
Picaridin is better.
wow called, before you said it
I'd prefer products that don't have to pass through my blood stream and liver but this picaridin and lemon eucalyptus seems like a game changer!
Ratios? And is lemon grass work as well or just lemon?
neat
I would like to know the impact of deet on the environment after it has been washed from the body.
Congratulations on 1 mln subscribers!!! 🎉🎉🎉🥳 well deserved and waaay back!!
😊😊
Which type of cinnamon, Celon or Vietnam?
I agree with the Marine-Skin So Soft original scent-Eucalyptus Mist lotion-Eat Fresh Garlic Cloves only one a day-All these work fantastic honestly
I apply to a paper towel and wipe it on arms, neck and ankles.
7:17 here's the gold. Some folks going off on other stuff. This is the nugget of the series.
this channel is the best thing ever for my science addiction and Dr Greger and his team are straight up heroes
I use a lemon eucalyptus essential oil blend. That works great.
I love this channel!
Our family use vanilla extract (alcohol included) and have had much success in repelling mosquitoes
So not mutagenic?
mosquitos love me but dont bite me when I use lavender oil, they hate it
