@fiesty76 My husband really is amazing. They are saying older people have less reaction to the vaccines because our immune systems are not as strong. Well, my husband was miserable for two days and even had a mild temperature! Go figure.
I started limiting salt years ago for some reason, I'm not sure why. Now if anything has much salt at all I can really taste it, as can my husband because he's used to my cooking of course. That does not diminish the love for salty snacks though!

That is really interesting, @contentandwell, because I'd heard the same and thought my older friend with the "deplorable diet" might have severe after vacc reactions but No! Not even a smidgen after either of the Modernas!
OTOH, a much younger, pre-diabetic friend who follows a "strict healthy only" diet, was the first I knew to have the Covid arm after her first vacc and was pretty miserable for 2-3 days following her second.
@contentandwell Hello JK. I'm the same as you about salt; don't even touch a salt shaker anymore. I had to cut it back due to high blood pressure and now really find salty foods quite intolerable. The same goes for sweets or milk chocolate ( Jake!). My preference these days is for no sweets, and (Jake!) 75% dark chocolate.
My best to you. Laurie

Healthy intestinal flora and not eating foods that have an inflammatory effect as well as avoiding medications or products (including skin) that are inflammatory affect also helps with resistance. As my teacher said ”on the body is in the body”
