clean amazon basics mouse wheel

I followed the instructions in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGrURf2ws14 . I opened the mouse, cleaned the wheel shaft and assembly. But when I put everything back, the left mouse button stopped working. I am not sure what I did wrong.

I ended up buying Logitech precision pro mouse from Costco for $30. It is much better than the Amazonbasics mouse.

Vitamin C

  • Lack of vitamin C causes Scurvy.
  • While many animals produce their own vitamin C, humans and a few others do not.
    • The technical way of saying this is “humans are unable to metabolically synthesize vitamin C.”
    • guinea pigs, monkeys - examples of mammals that cannot produce Vitamin C on their own.
  • Sources of vitamin C in the food
    • fruits: citrus fruits, amla, guava, kiwifruit, lemons, limes, oranges, papaya, strawberries
    • vegetables: red peppers, bell peppers, chili peppers, broccoli, tomatoes, parsley, brussel sprouts, cabbage, potatoes, spinach, watercress
  • Cooking often decreases vitamin C in foods.
  • Pasteurized milk does not have vitamin C
    • Commercial milk is pasteurized
    • Pasteurization is a heating process.
      • It makes milk safer for infants to drink.
      • But it also destroys Vitamin C.
      • So to get vitamin C, supplement the infant's diet with onion juice or cooked potato.

deficiency diseases

  • Scurvy, beriberi and pellagra - examples of diseases caused by micronutrient deficiencies
