...actually there are some culture on this planet use them (SEEDS exclusively!) as anecdote for diahrea or ameoba, perhaps it might have the "organic-panacure®" fx on your torts? my other suggestions if your animals ALREADY addicted to them, squeeze the juice on their food, I often use this "TrojanHorse" methods on picky eaters to "smuggled" the occasion unappealing dietary supplements to their DT

Actually, none of my torts have ever had it, but I have heard about all the positive things it has on humans, so I was just curious if the juice might be good for torts.

I guess I will just put that one on the "no feed" list.

Thank you
