Remember, to cure the ghosts who afflict you, you'll want to run your hand under hot water, rubbing with the lye'd fat rendered from a pig. Then say the incantation to celebrate your birth, twice.https://t.co/iFaouKyin9
"In the first prescription, directly following the diagnostic part, the healer had to sacrifice a bird, and mix some of its body parts in a resin of a plant. This mixture was then magically enriched with an incantation:"https://t.co/F9IR3fHuaZ

Gonna go out on a limb and suppose that L Reuteri is partly upregulating ammonia oxidizing bacteria by acting as a co-conspirator for getting rid of fungal infections that impede both. And the stuff in the water is something with that promotes hydrogen peroxide.
