Factory farms are selling lots of parasite ridden trash meat.....but frequently, it is from using a Netty Pot...some sort of tiny tea pot for sniffing water when your nose is stuffy. Seems weird to me.

I did not know about the neti pot. The FDA 🤷🏻‍♂️ recommends using distilled, sterile or previously boiled water for nasal rinsing.

"Some tap water contains low levels of organisms — such as bacteria and protozoa, including amoebas — that may be safe to swallow because stomach acid kills them. But in your nose, these organisms can stay alive in nasal passages and cause potentially serious infections."
