There's Metal Hiding in your Pepto-Bismol and Heres How You Extract It... Got an upset stomach or a little heartburn? America's favorite pink pill will cure it right up. But did you know that there's actually metal hiding in those chewable Pepto-Bismol tablets? Yes, metal Technically, it's a poor metal, but metal's metal, right? Well, we do tend to eat a lot of iron in our diets, because it carries oxygen throughout our bodies, so consuming metallic minerals isn't anything abnormal. But you'd never think that Pepto-Bismol is actually made up of metal. Pepto-Bismol's active ingredient is bismuth subsalicylate, of which an eighth of it is actually bismuth metal, though it's not tiny ground-up bits of bismuth. It's combined chemically with salicylate, but to get actual bismuth metal, you can reverse engineer it by reducing it chemically, and that's exactly what Theodore Gray of Popular Science will show you how to do! Here is the Link... [link to science.wonderhowto.com]  ~"For the total development of the human being, solitude as a means of cultivating sensitivity becomes a necessity. One has to know what it means to be alone, what it is to meditate, what it is to die; and the implications of solitude, of meditation, of death, can be known only by seeking them out. These implications cannot be taught, they must be learned." - Krishnamurti ~ |
