🔥Understanding Types of Burns — and Why It Matters
In any emergency or survival situation, knowing how to identify the severity of a burn can help you respond quickly and correctly. This image shows how deeply each type of burn affects the skin and tissue layers.
Normal
Healthy, undamaged skin.
First-degree burn
Affects only the outer layer (epidermis). Skin appears red, dry, and painful — similar to a mild sunburn. Usually heals without lasting damage.
Second-degree burn
Reaches the dermis, the layer beneath the surface. Often causes blisters, swelling, and more intense pain. May require medical treatment, especially if large or located on sensitive areas.
Third-degree burn
Destroys all layers of the skin, often appearing white, charred, or leathery. May be painless due to nerve damage. Requires urgent medical care and likely skin grafts.
Fourth-degree burn
Extends beyond skin into muscle, fat, or even bone. Life-threatening and requires immediate, intensive medical intervention.

🧬 Lactose Intolerance Might Just Be a “Skill Issue”
Two major studies show your gut can adapt to lactose — if exposed daily:
🔗 1996 study: Just 10g of lactose/day doubled gut enzyme activity and halved symptoms
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8694025/
🔗 2023 study: Increased bifidobacteria & reduced gas in lactase-deficient adults

Turns out, ditching dairy might’ve been the wrong move.
