@grok @ScrooogeUncle @SmartScience What do you recommend to remove microplastics from the human body?

No, the claim isn't accurate. Tarleton State University's research (from 2022 onward) shows tamarind polysaccharides can help remove microplastics from water as a natural flocculant—up to ~90% in freshwater lab tests alongside okra. It's for wastewater treatment, not the human body. No studies involve people eating tamarind extract and excreting more microplastics. This is a viral exaggeration of the water cleanup work.

A recent laboratory study suggests that tamarind, a fruit widely consumed in Asia and Africa, may help the body eliminate microplastics. Microplastics—tiny plastic particles now detected in human blood, organs, and even brain tissue—are difficult for the body to remove naturally and may pose long-term health risks. Researchers found that certain compounds in tamarind seeds can bind to microplastic particles, potentially helping the body gather and expel them. In controlled experimental settings, participants who consumed tamarind extract showed higher levels of microplastics in their waste compared to control groups. The study was conducted by researchers at Tarleton State University in Texas, who are investigating plant-based compounds that may help remove microplastics from biological systems.

@earthsukky @nahaa_a1 @CrimsonDesert_ Copy, thanks

@Reason2ReasonX @nahaa_a1 @CrimsonDesert_ You just use the whites of any shade and then change the material from default to shiny, no clue where he got white from though

The ultimate class. #CrimsonDesert

@iron_ulfhednar Of course!

@Reason2ReasonX Ty!

Black Dye Location in Crimson Desert!

@TeddyGMusic @WillJPowers How did you remove the two spears on the back?

@WillJPowers Im at the camp , giving a lot of provisions, but how do I start to recruit people for missions? Marius isn’t giving me missions to find certain people thanks so much! here’s a shot with my new armor set love the game!

The best advice I could give someone jumping in the game? Prioritize unlocking the camp (chapter 3), then just have fun. But tons of systems are tied to the camp, so get there ASAP! .... Then fill it with pets!

@Abhiraj_Singh17 @GHBSmith lol where did you find the elephant and does it become a companion?

@GHBSmith Finding something new every time.

The magic of Crimson Desert "Every day I find multiple new and surprising things. Every day I go online and I see the community has found some new obscure secret for some new badass piece of gear" There is something nostalgic about collective community discovery.

@GHBSmith @_ltchy_ @Mrme5 Thank you

@Reason2ReasonX @_ltchy_ @Mrme5 Use your lantern LB/L1

So @Mrme5 asked me to check something. He wanted me to go pickpocket some bunnies for gold bars... Obviously, with that level of ridiculousness involved, I went immediately. Can confirm there are visitors to the Demeniss Wildlife Park who frolic around carrying gold bars.

@GHBSmith @_ltchy_ @Mrme5 Another silly question but how do you scan? I’ve seen players can and a red circle reveals what everyone is holding loot-wise

@_ltchy_ @Mrme5 It's not an airhead question in a game that introduces nothing and hides everything lol Sprint into your target and bump them, this throws them off balance, then quickly hit Square (PS) or X (Xbox). PC, just look at the target when you bump them, should see a prompt appear

@GenePark @CrimsonDesert_ Yes please

hey @CrimsonDesert_ since you’re taking feedback: please let us unequip the shields so we can roleplay as Guts or Ryu

@paulbatistta @CrimsonDesert_

Pearl Abyss precisa, urgentemente, de um patch pra adicionar a opção de esconder o escudo. Tira toda a estética do set po @CrimsonDesert_

@shitpost_2049 @peta is this true?? :(

@iron_ulfhednar x.com/reason2reasonx… Here’s a gold reserve I found too

@iron_ulfhednar Once you get the dye do you have unlimited or do you have to keep making it?

@iron_ulfhednar Thanks

@Reason2ReasonX you have to consume it in the inventory and then its unlimited uses at the Dye npc

“You only have to play 8 hours before it gets good I swear” still worth it 😎

For those looking for the gold deposit in crimson desert here it is.

@STRIMANDO Found it. Looks like the only one

O cara achou uma caverna com ouro, infelizmente o meliante não passou as coordenadas quem souber Manda aqui.

@TANKONEXONLY @NikoMueller Thank you

@Reason2ReasonX @NikoMueller Yes it did also found more ore and magical ores

Review in progress: 🎮#CrimsonDesert I discovered a huge vein of gold in a cave in the middle of nowhere! I’m rich, baby! 😅 #XboxShare

@TANKONEXONLY @NikoMueller Thank you for the posts. Did that location work?

@NikoMueller Hope this works 😅💀

@codexeditor @TolkienWorldG I hope you’re right

@Reason2ReasonX @TolkienWorldG Colbert is one of the biggest Tolkien fans out there, and a sharp comedic mind. He's also a devout Catholic and 'gets' Tolkien and his message. I'm sure it will be great.
