• Sense of smell is back, which is great news.
    Though straight after my chest infection, I got toothache (unrelated to Covid - though maybe forgetting to brush teeth because I was a disgusting slob might have contributed)

    So fun times.

    I do take daily cod liver oil, vitamin D and multi vitamin daily, now with an antihistamine as the sun has come up.

    Been very conscious of omega oils, glucosamine etc for joint health and reduced inflammation after years of martial arts and joint injuries.

  • All going well, then good stuff.

    "A disgusting slob" :)))

    My partner had sore teeth...teeth grinding which seems common ATM according to dentist.

    I've not tried Glucosamine yet, might look into it. Tx :)

    There is an article in this months Which magazine about supplements. They have a list of vitamins that are proven to work and ones that aren't proven by medical studies to work.

    Was suprised to see that there is no evidence that eating glucosamine supplements leads to more glucosamine being made available to joints. Loads of people swear by it but there is vanishingly little evidence to support efficacy.

    Edit: There was also a fairly sobering warning about taking too much Vitamin D. Aparently more than 100ug per day over a period if time can weaken bones and damage your heart and kidneys.
