    The ridiculous nutritional takes about COVID-19 are flying in, so let me remind you that it is not that plausible that ANY specific diet or food is magically protective from coronavirus

        Gummy bears, as usual, remain the exception to the rule in that they are magical (although unfortunately not protective)

        I’m a hospital molecular diagnostics and diagnostic immunology lab manager. Maybe I have Covid, or I had Covid but it really, really sucks we don’t have enough tests for me to know that. But I do have a stress fracture in my foot from literally RUNNING miles everyday at work.

        T nation the fitness magazine advertises their curcumin supplement as antiviral and immune boosting during a global pandemic. I got in a twitter row with them and I may or may not have called them snake oil merchants and boner pill salesmen.

        Omg yes. T-nation is all about their flavor of quackery. I love it when they and their quacks have a row (great word; am borrowing!) with the crossfit folks!!
