> Seems like an explanation for the body compensating for hypoxic-environments by changing its acid-base. But what is fundamentally causing these environments?

Damage to the lung tissue!



Or damage to microvasculature, whether in the lungs or elsewhere


I had weird cardiovascular issues (stuff that feels like microclotting after various type of efforts) and \i'm really curious about how to improve microvasculature (I altered my diet a lot but that's a bit of a blind shot). I thought it was out of reach of people today.


What has helped me is nattokinase, occasional aspirin, and plenty of nitric oxide foods / supplements. Very low risk and are generally found in natural foods. But I take these because I suspect I’ve had long Covid post my two infections.

There is also a triple anticoagulant therapy of clopidogrel, aspiring, and apixaban. Those studies are popular in South Africa.


Thanks, I'm gonna read about this. I didn't try microdosing aspirin, even though it's well known, because i'm too weak on biochemistry to avoid bleeding.

Really, thanks a lot, it's a damn burden when your cardiovascular system is feeble, you're constantly on the edge of a problem and have to monitor every effort (almost requiring a car for groceries because i'm not sure I can walk with a backpack multiple times a week).

ps: I've recently learned about the blood viscosity aspect and also red blood cell renewal through "blood donation", you red blood cells being more elastic, it's supposed to ensure better flow in microvasculature.


No idea. I've read stories about people getting CTs showing damage and others showing absolutely none. A very, very strange virus.
