Detecting is good for you!.:detecting: Lick your finds!

Aside from the thrill of the hunt, excitement, anticipation, excersize, and meditational aspects, theres a bacteria found in soil that once ingested, makes you less anxious and mentally/physically quicker!

I tripped across a research paper this week where this common dirt bacteria was fed to a study group of mice, and the results were amazing! Those mice were quicker through the maze, less anxious, over all happier/healthier than the mice that did not get it...also seems it has lasting effects, once ingested, its benefits continue for a time......truthfully..havnt we all experienced some weird great health benefits from this sport? Well know you know why, seems a little dirt is good for you in more ways than one.

Interesting info Mud. hang on, I'm going to go lick the dirt off my seated dime

It hasn't helped cattle or sheep and I'm sure they get plenty of it---still going to the killers..................

That study said you can also breath in these bacteria..so just being around fresh dirt is good for a person...I've heard old timers say they used to put a silver coin in the cistern or barrel to purify the water..said silver kills all sorts of microbes...

I also heard tell Roman soldiers used to swallow a silver coin when on a long march and drinking questionable water so they wouldnt get sick, then, once they passed the coin, they rinsed it off and swallowed it again! Im gonna try that with a Walker Half! That thing should make a nice 'clink' when it hits the bowl! Anyway, a guy should be able to tell upon exit for sure! I dont chew my food very well, and a dime could easily get missed.

Makes a guy wonder anyway, and something to think about the next time you are out rooting around in the dirt, like I was this am!, plus, a guy dont need a finds pouch anymore! Or a tumbler! Just pop those dirty pennys right in your piehole and go on about your merry way, cheeks stuffed full of clad like some sort of coin chipmunk!!

Your right Mud - many people still use silver today (Colloidal Silver ) to ward off a host of issues.

I nearly split my gut when I read about you ingesting the Walker Half and your piehole comment I needed a good laugh thank you!
