Current guesses (borrowed from several articles, papers, and studies). I'm seeing a pattern. Comments?
Over the last few months, I've been noticing some trends, and as I spent another nearly sleepless night reading and watching videos, some of the pieces seem to be fitting together. In short, it seems that more and more theories and studies are focusing on mitochondria. In particular, a "biochemical defect

Tight chest, confusing Asthma like symptoms
Hi all, I had asthma as a child and practically grew out of it as an adult or rather it became very mild. I've always had a blue inhaler but would use it very infrequently. Around christmas time this year I caught a cold which then turned into a chest infection (numerous negative lateral flow covid tests

Natural Bone Supplement?
I'm looking to start a good calcium supplement. Which type of calcium is best? Calcium from the sea like "algae" ? I've heard "citrate" is better absorbed as you get older..? Also want Vit. K, boron, Vit. D, magnesium. Does anyone have a brand that has been recommended to you? Thanks!

Switch from Seretide to Fostair 100/6
Have other people had problems when switching from Seretide (which was very successful for me) to Fostair 100/6. I am finding it less effective and peak flow has fallen by about 20%

Naltrexone : for chronic inflammation, Hashimotos, etc
Low dose Naltrexone was introduced to me by one of the wisest ladies I know. Bolt, it is my hope sharing this will be a small way of reciprocating the things you have introduced to me. I think it will be of interest to you. Or maybe you already take it? I haven’t had time to read today but am posting
