Dear Immune System,
Unfortunately we need to talk as things are not running smoothly between us and I am rather disappointed.
I remember the times when we where so aligned. We were tight. We worked hand in hand. And had amazing things happening to us. Remember the adventures? Not caring to spend all night hanging out with friends? The raspy throat we just ignored, disinfected with a vodka and next morning we were back in the office doing our job. What a life. We had each others back.
And I miss that. Why have you distanced yourself? Was it the pandemic when you felt neglected and lonely? I stayed home too much and you are not used to people and crowds anymore? Is that it? Or do you hold a grudge because I neglected our bond? Which would be a valid point. I haven’t taken care of our relationship all that much in the past decade. Didn’t care much for sport and my food choices probably didn’t help either.
But I have tried hard to reconnect in the last two years and especially in these past eleven months. I am running out of options here to get you back.
I kindly ask you to let me know what is missing in the following list as I am at the end of my wisdom:
- Started eating healthier
- Daily immun complex supplements for the past 3 months at least
- Daily magnesium supplements
- Daily Vitamin D supplements – granted only since last week
- A Covid shot
- A flu shot
- Drinking lots of herbal tea and hot ginger water
- Gurgling with salt water
- Taking it slow when I feel you are not up to speed
- Hot and cold showers
- Occasional sauna – this is something I could improve
- Regular lemon juice consumption
- Sanitizing my hand much more after leaving public places
- Always wearing some tank top underneath to cover my kidneys
- using salt water spray for my nasal muscoa.
So what is it? Help me out here. Please.
Thank you for reading and listening to my concerns. I would love for us to reconnect and have a balanced relationship again.
I am looking forward to you response.
See you soon hopefully
Tobia
