I know it looks a little silly, but for those with hearing disabilities these Savewo Smile mask could be game changers. Hard to tell in pic, but I just had this in the freezer, breathing on it and no fogging. This get the mask nerd nod of approval. Breathability is still good!

Update on nattokinase (NK)-serrapeptase (SP)! Content warning, there is gross body stuff in this thread. #LongCovid
I've been on NK for 2 months. I was on NK-SP for 1 month, increasing by 1 pill/week to 8000 FU on Dr's Best brand, & switched to NK-only at the 2 month mark.

If you have ME/CFS or Long COVID, I really cannot recommend nattokinase highly enough. I’ve tried a zillion supplements and none of them every did shit for me, but it’s completely resolved my neuropathy – better than $400k/year IVIg, better even than prescription blood…

NATTOKINASE Survey Data💊 Interesting results! Efficacy appears to ⬆️ w total daily dose (TDD). While 2000-4000 FU TDD looks similar, efficacy appears to improve around ≥6000 FU TDD w/ most taking ≥4000 FU twice daily. Note no one reported feeling worse at ≥9000 FU TDD.🧵

N95? KN95? KF94? The best is whichever fits you. I have high cheekbones & most N95s leak at my upper face. All Kf94s & most KN95s fit me perfectly, though, & I tie knots in ear loops to tighten just right. @masknerd has a great video: Fit, Fit, Fit!!!
