Ask HN: Effective Biohacks for Long Covid?

#1
I've been having palpitation, hair loss, headaches, and elevated BP since April when I had asymptomatic COVID-19 (I found out later with a antibody test, which showed declining BAUs). I'm eating well and I've been following a normal anti-inflammation supplementation for years. I've seen a cardiologist and there's nothing particularly wrong with my heart and there's been no dietary or lifestyle changes for years, yet, based on the symptoms and antibody tests, it fits into the symptomatic of long covid. I would like to hear things that worked for others and the labs done to confirm and see the main culprit of this unpleasant disorder.

Perhaps research this further... "In conclusion, the Mediterranean diet may represent a potential strategic therapeutic approach to address both short- and long-term conditions associated with COVID-19 infection and severity and improve mortality and the overall well-being of affected populations." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7833284/

My dad’s lost his sense of taste and smell for 2.5 years now. I’d love to know anything and everything to help him :( Watching him be sad about food and coffee and cut grass is awful

Probably not applicable here and poses risks on its own but there are anecdotes online of people who have regained their sense of smell lost due to COVID-19, after taking normal dose of LSD, 100ug. Don't ask me how I know

You are being chronically poisoned by snake venom peptides produced by lab-modified E Coli/yeast that have taken hold in the body. This is what "long covid" is.

You can megadose Vitmain C or find a service offering EDTA chelation therapy (or Vit C IV). This restores the condition of the blood, the body removing the peptide-producing organisms on its own. If they have taken hold in the gut, other modalities will likely be necessary. You may also experience temporary relief by using nicotine patches (this occupies nicotinic acetylcholine receptors targeted by the peptides).

If think the idea of _in vivo envenomation_ being "long covid" is absurd, then I DARE you get a simple toxicological test done on your blood, testing for venom.

I’ve heard even a small dose of magic truffles (few g) can also help. I know someone very well who regained their sense of taste this way

I thought it was some crazy stuff, but seems not to be the case [0] entirely.

Just being curious, how can you know with an antibody test that you had asymptomatic covid on a particular time period, and not, say, as a result of vaccination.

Different antibody types maybe?

And are you sure it is long covid? Your symptoms don't look very specific, and the risk of long covid is usually proportional to symptoms (with no symptoms being the lowest risk). I say that because I had somewhat similar symptoms (very non-specific) and it wasn't covid (antibody test negative, blood test normal, it was before the vaccine), but if it was I would certainly have blamed it. It took time but it went away, I will probably never know what it was, my doctor couldn't tell either, and since I could handle it, I didn't want to get lost in tests and trying remedies. Maybe hormonal or something.
