During the 2020 primaries, he was sleepy and not with it in all the debates, but when it came time for the one-on-one debate with Bernie, all of a sudden he was "fiery" Joe.

The same thing happened at the state of the union. They literally hide him whenever they can, even to the point of him declining a pre-superbowl interview. And then all of a sudden he's "fiery" Joe again during the state of the union.

I have to believe that they are giving him some kind of concoction or drug or something, and I don't think it's conspiratorial to speculate that this is the case.

So to any biology/pharmacy/medical experts out there, what the hell is going on?

possibly dexamphetamines - commonly used for narcolepsy and ADHD. One time I took some of my mum's to perk me up on a tired morning before a cleaning job, and for the first time ever cleaning dust out of window crevices felt INCREDIBLE - like I was born to do it and I'd just realised my destiny.

Maybe Lithium - super strong stuff that they used to use for ADHD but now don't as often because it's so strong.

maybe farm stimulants

No. Lemme break down what's gonna kill you in there just for funsies.

In that 8oz bag, there's an absolute shitload of Vitamin A (retinol) and vitamin D~3~ (cholecalciferol). I'm not even gonna bother breaking down the other vitamins because these will kill you way before your body would really even notice the others, based on the amounts there. Chronic vitamin A poisoning causes liver toxicity in people taking more than around 25,000 IU daily over an extended time, about ten times that much will send you into acute vitamin A poisoning which causes excruciating pain, vomiting, drowsiness, increased intracranial pressure, and a skin-peeling rash.

Acute vitamin D poisoning causes hypercalcemia starting around 10,000 IU daily. Consuming 1% or more of this packet per day can result in both of these hypervitaminoses over a few months, consuming 10% in a day would kill you so hard you'd get your own chubbyemu video about how your liver shut down well before your bones dissolved and you pissed them out as rocks, and your skin rashed up and fell off so they had to keep the casket closed at your funeral.

For basically everything else there, the entire packet contains about the amount you'd get either from regular daily multivitamins or the amount of a safe megadose by a doctor, so your liver is going to kill you long before you'd even notice anything else is there.

Americans, I am legally not allowed to tell you that you can get dirt cheap antibiotics from most farm and veterinary supply stores without a prescription.

Your fish or goat will be good as new in no time...
