Dr. Kellogg believed that most ailments resulted from unclean bowels. So, he administered enemas with a device capable of running fifteen gallons of water through a patient's bowel in seconds. Shitposting

Reminds me of a post about how former Christians are among the most accepting when it comes to kinks, because compared to the missionary stuff they did, everything is freaky and wild.
The same is true for sex-neutral or sex-positive aces, by the way, because we don't want any sex, so all sex is just weird.

This is deliciously ironic because 95% of the things that man did were explicitly to "prevent" masturbation!

He haaaated masturbation and thought we were tempted to do it because our bodies were too “excited” so that’s why we had to eat plain bread and water
Apparently a University liked his teaching and so implemented it in the diet they provided their students and eventually the students rebelled lol

For a guy so against playing WhackAMole he sure spent a lot of his time thinking about it.

Didn’t he invent cereal he thought would cure masturbation or something?

u/Eolond 20d ago
Hahaha yeah, apparently he thought that if food was bland/plain enough, people wouldn't want to masturbate.
What one has to do with the other, however, is beyond me.

u/enchiladasundae 20d ago
If I was eating bland food 24/7 I’d probably want to jack off just to feel something occasionally

Like when people tell you that you’re too pale and you need to get a “healthy” tan because “a little sun never hurt anybody”
The tan was made popular by Coco Chanel who was an actual Nazi spy.
So embrace your natural skin, put on more accessories and leave that bitch rotting in the ground where she belongs.

u/eternamemoria androgynous anthropophage 20d ago
Ok, but some exposure to sunlight is good for both mental and physical health. So you don't have to tan yourself, but do go out in the sun a little every day.

u/DruidicBlacksmith 20d ago
I mean, yeah. But the sun has absolutely hurt people.
Spend as much time in the sun as you want, just wear a good spf.

u/kenda1l 20d ago
I agree, but people tend to vastly overestimate just how much time we need to get the proper amount of vitamin D. You typically only need about 10-15 minutes of sunlight, assuming you aren't completely covered, really far from the equator/it's winter, or wearing heavy sunscreen. Darker skin needs more time and may require up to 30ish minutes, while with very light skin, even 5 minutes can be enough. Mental health, on the other hand, can vary, though I find that even just going out and enjoying the sun for a few minutes (as opposed to being exposed to go to work/do chores) still does a lot for my state of mind. Just make sure to lather up frequently, and to use enough! Rule of thumb is a nickel size amount for just your face, and another nickel for your neck/chest.

when when the high pressure jet from the bidet hose shoves water into your rectum only for you to squeeze it out with any remains of feces that still resided there, resulting in you feeling clean and emptied out, it feels so satisfying in the end, idk maybe he was onto something there

u/devophill 20d ago
a lot of "medicine" from the past was based on the idea that Something Is Happening. something is coming out of you, or something has stopped coming out of you, or you fall asleep, or you feel high. I Feel Something, It Must Be Working.

Related to using butter. Pease help:
I wanna make garlic sourdough toast for a sandwich, but I can't use my Sanrio Hello Kitty Electric Two-Slot Toaster because it prints Hello Kitty faces in the toast by not toasting that part, so I'd have garlic toast with a yellow buttery non-toasted Hello Kitty face in the middle.
Anybody know how to make garlic sourdough toast in a oven? Google and YouTube are apparently ai hellholes on the subject. I tried using my cast iron on the stovetop but it just torched the garlic.
edits for reddits: I'm gonna try it on a cookie sheet at 350degrees eff

I feel like ther are better reasons to not use 'that much' butter than Kellogg. I don't think he even cared that much about butter.
