  3. Interesting article on Vitamin K-2.

    It is a vitamin most people do not get. It can prevent the build up of arteriosclerosis, even for people with low cholesterol and a genetic predisposition to arteriosclerosis. It also does a lot to promote bone health and the health of gums.

    There is only 1 vegan source with significant amounts. Natto. Natto is fairly disgusting and brands that are reliably vegan are expensive.

    Good news: you only need about 12 grams a day - about 1 heaping tablespoon. A $5 3.5 ounce container can last you a week.

  4. 1/2 - So, I've been treating my own #LongCovid with #TurmericMilk, #VitaminD3, and #probiotics from various food sources (some with #VitaminK2), and consumed with #fiber-rich #prebiotics. I noticed that in addition to an improvement in my symptoms, I noticed an improvement with my anxiety and depression. It seems science is catching up with what I surmised -- that Covid messes with one's microbiome, which in turn affects our brains and other systems!

    A new possible explanation for long COVID could lead to a simple treatment for some patients

    By Erin Prater, October 16, 2023

    "While it might seem logical that neurologic long COVID symptoms like brain fog, memory loss, and depression are caused by the presence of virus in the brain, researchers in Pennsylvania propose a different theory: that virus lingering in the gut causes such symptoms in a round-about way.

    It works like this: SARS-CoV-2 lingering in the gut causes persistent inflammation, which leads to reduced production of serotonin—a chemical that sends messages between the brain and other parts of the body. It also plays a key role in regulating sleep, mood, digestion, and blood clotting, among other bodily functions.

    A lack of serotonin, in turn, disrupts connectivity between the peripheral nervous system and the brain, causing neurologic symptoms."

  5. Jetzt für die dunkle Jahreszeit: #VitaminD3
    Meist in #Europa hergestellt aus dem Schweiß von Schafen (Wollwachs/Lanolin). Die Herstellung ist recht unkompliziert und mir ist kein Pestizidproblem bekannt. Auch die etwas aufwendigere Alternative in #vegan aus Flechten oder Algen sollten recht gut ohne Pestizide auskommen.

    Bei dem ergänzenden #VitaminK2 sieht es etwas anders aus. Der Rohstoff ist meist Geraniol/Farnesol (aus Rosen/Zitronengras mittels Synthese) oder Soja/Kichererbsen (Fermentation). Hier ist es nicht einfach ein pestizidfreies und regionales Mittel zu finden.

    Ich habe jetzt mal das probiert:
    frischnatto.de/
    Sieht sehr widerlich aus und riecht streng, ist aber recht neutral im Geschmack. (Gibt es auch als Kapseln)
    Fermentiert in Polen aus europäischen #bio Sojabohnen.
    Ich werde es wahrscheinlich nicht dauerhaft essen, da ich meine K2 Versorgung zumindestens teilweise über Sojajoghurt und Sauerkraut decken werde. Aber als Ergänzung finde ich es super.
