How do you feel now, fully recovered?

So glad I stumbled upon this. I've watched many recovery videos. All good but this seemed to resonate with me. The excersize early on thing was so interesting. I was running ( and surfing) everyday. Maybe 50k weeks. Waited over 2 weeks after my initial infection , which was light then went for a light 4k run. Felt awful halfway through so walked home and lay down. Waited another week or so then went for a surf on a small day ( do not much paddling or hold downs etc). Got out after maybe half an hour. Walked home and slept for 2 hours. That was Nov 2020 and I'm still struggling. And uf anything it seems to have got a little worse since Xmas. Can I ask about the alcohol thing. I drink most fri or sat. Usually once a week. But I'll feel awful or at least not good all week. Have drinks , feel fairly boreal. Be a bit hungover the next day. Groggy and tired ( but not my usual long covid symptoms and fedlings( and then the next day they will return. Is the alcohol masking or inhibiting the symptoms and once it wears off they return. Or am I being somewhat naive. I may eat my own neck soon

Thanks Tom ❤️⭐👍

What was his reaction when he drank alcohol?

Every time I ask doctor about supplement he always said BIG NO. If i said I have Long Covid He looks the other way.

I would certainly say excercise is a big factor. I had glandular fever/mono in 2019 and was very careful with excercise. However, after a few months i tried running again and got the exact same PEM as I now get with long COVID. The difference is with glandular fever/mono is that I pulled back. When I got COVID I got back into training after 3 to 4 weeks and got PEM again. But this time I stupidly didnt pull back. Now i have long COVID and POTs.

So as usual, every time I see a 'full recovery' claim video they are selling something. Y'all are just as bad as those quacks who used to roll through towns with a wagon full of snake oil. It should be illegal.

Hello Tom. x Ive just stumbled across your videos about fasting x IM 24 hours in and feeling strong. Am aiming for 72 hours but will be kind and take it one day at a time x I have Lactobacillus ruteri and wondered if this would be useful to use x Thank you for all your work and sharing

How long did he have long Covid?

It does seem like endurance athletes, distance runners, cyclists, soccer players are coming down worse than others. Possible that it's ACE2 upregulation in these groups. To your continued good health, Cody.

Thank you Tom

Did you look at the success in the UK with “Your Gut Plus”?

I had mild cold symptoms for 3 days, didn't get tested. After 5 daysi felt ok so I went and lifted weights for an hour. The next day I had extreme fatigue. The next day my resting pulse rate was 115 beats per minute. I had to lift a heavy object for 10 seconds and my heart rate went through the roof. After many days of intense research I went on a high fat meat, fish and whole egg diet eating twice a day. Never eat 4 hours before bed. 20 thousand iu vit d3, 4, 180mg pills of tocatrenoils, 4 vit k2, 4 aged garlic tabs, 3 coq 10 , 2 magnesium tabs, 3, 500mg barberine a day. Nutritional yeast with every meal, 1 probiotic a day, I high quality fish oil a day, 2, 500 mg vit b food based source of vitamin C powder. 2 heaped teaspoons a day with water. Must be food based not synthetic. Not cheap. Do not exercise rigorously, brisk walk 20, 30 min. Some half push ups with you knees on the floor. Is enough. Do not stress and do not engage In rigorous activity of any sort even when you feel good. After 8 days my resting pulse has gone to an average of 88 from 115. Also use pure Virginia olive oil and butter, with cooking. Eliminate all sugar from diet including fruit. Dring 2 litres of purified water with half a teaspoon of Himalayan pink salt and a dash of lemon per litre. Never drink while eating and take small sips throughout the day.

Glad I had anxiety problems before I got long Covid because from anxiety I learned how to calm down not to overthink and just breathe I’m very good friends with anxiety and brain fog is like the same thing so I got over that pretty fast because I just let it happen I didn’t try to control it and just stay calm

Great video Tom! Your protocol was and is one of the reasons I have gotten back to 90%! I would love to do a video podcast or interview for your channel one day. Looking forward to learning more about your new study on autophagy as well. Thanks for all you do.

Interesting🤔🤔 The advice for M.E is small meals little and often. Are you assuming that virus is still active? I've found, anecdotally, that SARS2 reactivates herpes based viruses Eg EBV, Shingles etc. What about the theory that M.E/FMS, Acute Long Covid has DNA and Mitochondria damage? I've also heard that many vitamins can reactivate the SARS2 virus? Can you tell me how you came to these conclusions and methodologies please. 👍✌️😊

the mayo protocol is 20mg per kg, 2 -3 days a month.. what are your thoughts on that please?

“The ronacoaster,” I love that 😂.

Thanks Cody and Tom. Awesome!

Hey Tom I have had lc since sept 20. I can't shake the chronic fatigue. I take mitochondrial supplements, plus but D,and k2. Any suggestions?

It’s been 4 months , did you guys recover , in about to start mine

I like listening to this story to give me hope when im down. Good luck to everyone

Is there any consensus about whether vaccine injuries and covid long haul are the same thing? I’m a vax long hauler and the viral debris thing seems like it wouldn’t apply to people like me. Although the symptoms appear to be the same. Including duration.

I’m a long hauler of 19 months now. Mine was from the Pfizer vaccine. I tried fasting and the autophagy protocol but it severely aggravated my POTS. HBOT (hyperbaric oxygen) was the single most effective thing I’ve done. Must be a hard shelled chamber at 2 ATA of pressure. 20-40 sessions minimum.

Can you start with the 2-4 day fasting already in the acute phase of Long COVID(first month)? Or do you have to wait a few months first?

Good interview. I wouldn’t say LH recovery is rare. I’ve seen a lot of LH athletes return to sport symptom free. They just leave the FB groups so most recoveries are undocumented. I’m LH for 17 months but I’ve been very close to fully out in random months at times. And that’s with a lot of skiing and biking. It’ll happen.

Currently on my 4th day of a water fast to treat long covid. Been suffering from a very fatiqued depressed state for half year and also had some gut issues. My mood already enhanced a lot but from the third day on I experienced a thrust in fatique and also noticed my heartbeat in my stomach which is hopefully a sign of the autophagy fighting the remaining covid fragments. I‘m really hoping to see a good improvement of my symptoms. Also I will keep an anti-inflammatory diet after the fast to give my body the best possible opportunity to reproduce stem and immune cells. If there is any interest of an update after the fast let me know! Wishing all the long haulers a lot of energy to fight long covid!

does aspirin dissolve blood cloths? don't think so, but sure it can help you bleed in your stomach or intestines...

Why do athletes and fit people get long covid more?

Why are athletes more susceptible to getting long covid?

Bluberies help regulate,blood sugar levels,actualy a medicine named diavit , even healed in time people with diabetic problems or at least they imroved.This medicine is based on blueberies mostly.

Yes I’m a prisoner in the Covid brain and it’s hard to self talk in a positive way to pull your self out and if I didn’t have a relationship with the Lord I would have ended it all. This is how much it’s affected me😔🙇🏽‍♀️

I so wish to talk to you Cody everything you have expressed is exactly what I’m experiencing I’m still in the mist of this mysterious residue that lingers but this video gives me hope! & yes you may not have been hit as hard as others but you have been hit! & you lived it! You experienced it & we long Covid can relate. I so thank you for sharing your story. I’m getting close to 2 years & this does bring in a despair a depression that stocks a ambush of sudden exhaustion for I to have never experienced anything like this! All I know it’s real & I’m living it too😔

I got covid in May. Pretty bad for a month then gradually was able to walk 2,000 steps to 3k, to 7k, to 10k and 13k. I also did push ups, sit ups, weights by july. Now in August, I'm back to square one. Insane.

hey Tom why do you think it’s going to take months to know if lacto will be beneficial? When I learned about fasting from you, I knew that week that it was beneficial already lol

So- what was the duration of your entire journey?

I wonder if raw kefir has lactobacillus

Tom, does your current protocol include intermittent fasting or elongated fasting? Where can I view your current protocol? Thank you

Tom, does lactobacillus cross the blood brain barrier? How can we decrease the brain fog? Thank you.

i’m 21 i am struggling with this i have to work everyday so it makes it so much harder i have chronic fatigue, brain fog, no energyyyyy its so so hard i am taking b complex, d3, nac, lung support, tumeric / quecertin, b12, reservatrol, nothing is working

If you forget all the forums and youtube videos and read the scientific literature instead you will find that there is only one treatment for lc that has been shown to work in clinical trials. its called hbot.

Great discussion guys, I have had covid 3 times. My breathing is affected intermittently. I have fibromyalgia as well as recovering from a spontaneous vertebral artery dissection and strokes.

How about L-lysine? I have lingering shortness of breath, is there a specific supplement that helps with this?

Poll ----- "What are we waiting for?" Those who are in Long Covid ........ what are we waiting for? I've talked to so many doctors and no one seems to know for sure. Is it viral persistence? Is it a destruction or a disruption of the Metabolic Process? Is it Viral Debris? No one seems to know. I am 90% recovered -- 10 months. My remaining symptom is chronic fatigue. If I get moving, or have a work-out, the "fatigue" will go away. But it comes back every morning. I'm lifting weights again, but my endurance is horrible. My MAX strength is back to normal, but I can't hardly do anythign for any duration. If I work-out in the gym, I'm done for the day --- whereas before, I could work-out and then do yard work, run a chain saw, etc., etc. So, to me, it seems like my body is unable to produce enough ATP in a short time frame. But why? What are we waiting for?!!! Does our body simply need TIME to heal? Obviously Cody's body is healed. So encouraging to hear. I am 55. So I suspect it will take more time for myself. Last question/observation ---- any other modalities that have helped people? HBOT ....... NAD IV therapy ...... infared sauna ........ Besides supplements and a proper diet .................... just looking for other modalities that might help the healing process. Good luck to all Long Haulers. Hang in there. Be encouraged.

What is the long Covid group they are talking about?
