@anciendaze, I feel for you. My MIL and other in-laws live in Orlando, and we have other relatives in Tampa. My MIL encounters lots of people who don't wear masks, even in doctor's offices. I live in Austin, and although it's much more progressive than the rest of the state, we had a terribly...

I've stopped using ibuprofen at bedtime, replacing it with 20 MG of CBD oil. Wish I could take CBD during the day, but it makes me too sleepy.

Today's New York Times has an article written by Linsey C. Marr, an engineering professor. It's about growing evidence of COVID airborne transmission. The article endorses improving ventilation with functioning windows and updated filters...

I'd really like to see a study of how much protection a face shield adds when worn with a mask, as opposed to wearing a mask by itself. Maybe studies haven't been done on this because face shields aren't yet commonly worn in non-medical settings. But common sense tells me that an additional...

Thanks for posting this, @Keela Too. That wearing masks could mitigate the symptoms of the virus if you do get it is added incentive for us all to wear masks.

Since we now understand that the virus is more airborne than previously thought, I'd think more attention would be paid to the quality and circulation of inside air in buildings. At the very least, HVAC systems should be set to bring in some outside air instead of just circulating all inside...

What kind of visor are you wearing? Is it the same as a face shield? I've started wearing face shields to grocery stores, in addition to my mask. The only disadvantage I've found is that it's sometimes hard for people to hear me with both the mask and the shield in place. The other day I was at...

I live in Texas, where cases are skyrocketing. For months now, I've worn a mask every time I go out. In addition to my mask, I'm going to start wearing face shields in public. I'm sure I'll feel self conscious at first, but if it helps even a tiny bit, it will be worth it.

For inflammation, I find the Meriva form of curcumin really helpful as well as CBD oil capsules.

I use PEA Soothe Support capsules and find them helpful for pain. PEA is Palmitoylethanolamide. I take it in the evening because I find it too relaxing to take during the day. It's also available in a transdermal, but it didn't help me in that form...

I was getting a really bad slump around 4:00 in the afternoon, and my PA suggested that I eat breakfast earlier than I had been. I had been eating about an hour after I woke up. This late-afternoon slump stopped after I started eating breakfast earlier, but I don't remember the reasoning behind it.

I'm sure your improved eyesight could have any number of explanations, but google cataracts and second sight. Improved near vision can be sign of cataract onset, but I don't know if it can cause the perception of sharper colors. My eye doctor said if you have enough birthdays, you will get a...

Also, in the U.S., many young people are taking advantage of now cheap flights, not realizing they could more easily get the virus and/or spread it to someone else if they fly right now. An airplane is the last place I'd want to be. @Roy S, I think you're right about incorrect info being spread...

I managed to get some disposable gloves about 10 days ago. I use them for pumping gas and at the grocery store, when I absolutely have to go. I've also seen people invert a produce bag over their hands at the grocery store for a make-shift glove, which is better than nothing. I have a little...

@Jonathan Edwards, what does coffee pressure mean? When I googled it, all I came up with are descriptions of how espresso is made. Is this a British expression?

The Longvida form of curcumin helped me overcome a short-term memory problem, and I continue to take it. The Meriva form of curcumin helps me with inflammation and pain.

They are fantastic for plane travel. When I flew from Texas to Toronto, a guy in front of me talked NON-STOP to the poor woman beside him the entire time. (She did not get in a word edgewise.) Had I not had the headphones, I would have stabbed him with my fork.

I started off at 2 MG and slowly went up to 4 MG. I apply it in areas with more fat such as the inside of my thighs and the underside of the top of my arms. I was told to alternate sites so I apply LDN to one of those 4 areas before bedtime.

I use transdermal LDN from a compounding pharmacy and have never had any gastric symptoms.

I tried maca a long time ago, and it gave me terrible insomnia that night. I did have some good energy during the day, though.
