In this episode, we will talk about a treatment to prevent covid-19 vaccine-induced blood-clotting, the mechanism of sense of smell loss in covid-19 patients, the effect of plastics on IQ, a new blood glucose monitoring system that uses sweat instead of blood and how the body differentiates between good bacteria in the gut from the bad ones.
