do you have fatigue , muscle aches and shortness of breath?

With COVID and LC, I became habituated to staying it, not getting out to do anything other than switch from bed to sitting in front of computer, vegging. No energy to do anything else - the rut deepened.

Recently I learned from Dr. Andrew Huberman in interview with Shawn Ryan on YouTube that the single most important thing a person can do for their overall neuro-physical well-being is to get out into natural sunlight first thing in the day.

This triggers a cortisol response which, in turn, sets the biological clock for the release of melatonin at the right time for sleep. Within days, other changes gradually begin to occur. Those changes are defined clearly in the interview, and amount to a countdown of many of our symptoms!

I've been following this simple habit-change for less than a week - and I'm beginning to feel alive again, beginning to hope that I've turned a corner. I encourage you - look up the Shawn Ryan's interview (the whole version - not a clip or short) on YouTube - the interview is long and may take several sessions; have a pencil and pad handy. The first Q&A is short and to the point of morning sunlight and cortisol.

God bless - and let us all know how you do with this. OK?

Thank you for the information. I am excited to try any thing that is exercise, diet or natural remedy related to improve my health .

My pleasure and so glad I could help.

Like you and I suspect many of us, I'm more diet, exercise, and natural remedy oriented - to say nothing of my eroding confidence in trad medicine and the difficulty of finding providers who are at once good diagnosticians and willing to look toward the efficacy of other treatments.

I think people who are health-conscious have always been that way, to an extent, but mainstream medicine's treatment of COVID from start to the present time hasn't boosted our confidence in what trad med offers.

Sad to say, I've learned more about the effective treatmenty of my own LC symptoms here and through my own internet searches, word-of-mouth betwen friends, than I have though the entire medical comunity.

That is wrong.

Thankfully, through this forum we can help each other.

Amen.

Thanks for sharing, I will look at the posted program suggested .

I agree. I'm a health professional and always believed to blend natural remedies within my own practice and within my personal lifestyle.

During my own LC experience, I've experienced my confidence in this current medical system has also left me completely disappointed. I feel for anyone suffering LC symptoms who have no sort of a medical background in the finding any providers who are interested in helping or willing to look at other treatments, for those people, with this current health system lets them down greatly, as it doesn't encourage those services or providers to look out of the square, which is exactly what this LC experience is.

I haven't had any success with mainstream medicine's treatment of my COVID symptoms yet. And despite my focus and brain fog, I've still managed to fight for for some allied health services, which the current provider scroff at
when I requested referrals.

My current health issues include the ones mentioned above.
Due to LC I've found the traditional health care system and it's providers are very quick to script any medication more than likely by trial and error and yet they do not recognise the usefulness of the Allied Health Services and definitely do not encourage the use of natural services or resources .
All the best to all
