I took three naps today and hardly did anything except sip green smoothies made from papaya leaves and pineapples. I'm up and feeling all new and shiny. My husband is still sleeping, he calls my green smoothies, "Hulk poop." I secretly think I'm better and he isn't because of me drinking hulks poop....hahaha!!!
I probably wouldn't be able to get that smoothie down either. I didn't know you could use papaya leaves. I'm not that fond of papaya, which is unfortunate because it's cheap and plentiful where I've lived the last six years. The trees grow amazingly fast, and I love the little cream-colored blooms.

After extract administration the patient blood was rechecked for platelets counts again for five consecutive days. After which ..." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3614241/

Thanks for the info. I have lived in dengue fever country.
That's cool that you're growing the trees in Oklahoma.
