I Have Not Taken Any Vaccination, Medication Or Supplements For Over Ten Years. And Not Been Sick Either.

I have not taken any vaccination, medication or supplements for over ten years. And not been sick either. But the Corona virus has me keen to get the vaccine. My parents got it and they had zero side effects. Did you know that you absolutely cannot get the Covid-19 virus from the vaccination? The greatest risk would be from side effects, but they have been statistically insignificant. It maybe because the ingredients in the vaccine are very simple. Take a look at our blog post as we delve deeper into the Covid-19 vaccine.

I got my first Covid-19 vaccination (Pfizer) two weeks ago and going for the second shot soon. As a consummate hypochondriac who has never had a flu shot or taken any medication for 11 years now, I don’t leave anything to chance. First, I exercised to get my body in supreme form but stopped a few days before the vaccine. This ensured the body was calm and not distracted rebuilding muscle tissue when the vaccine entered the body.  Alcohol and OTC pain medication dulls the immune response system. This can result in antibodies that are not as strong.  My fasting diet was halted and replaced with three full meals days prior to the vaccine including a nice breakfast a few hours before the vaccine. While fasting is good, when we begin to fast, the body initially breaks down a number of immune fighting white blood cells. I was building reserve fuel so my body had all the resources to build the best possible antibodies as soon the vaccine entered by body. The vaccine process was pretty simple. I was out of there in all of ten minutes. Wow. Did I tell you I hate needles? Of course, I took the opportunity to do some binge eating. I got myself a nice steak, a generous helping of vegetables, fries and bread. Got a large chocolate cake too. Yes, sugar is the fastest energy source. Admittedly it is a dirty fuel but, in this case, it gets the job done. It was only for a few days.  I really was tempted to pour myself a nice brandy to get the arm pain to go away. It would have gone down well with the steak. The next day the arm pain was a little worse. More irritating than painful. Again, I resisted the temptation to take some Ibuprofen or Advil. You see pain killers tell the body it’s not that serious. The higher the pain the better your body is triggered to mount a robust immune response and build antibodies that can machine gun any Covid-19 vermin that come its way in the wild. Get plenty of sleep. I took the opportunity to binge watch some movies and eat like a pig. It was rather fun. Anyway, that is the story of a hypochondriac getting a vaccine. But I am looking forward to another round of binge eating for the second shot. Apparently, you get the chills for 24 hours so the thermal blanket is ready. Besides I have my Cinnamon ginger tea which we know warms the body. So, all set.

The fears of the Covid vaccine is understandable. Marcus Aurelius the Roman emperor known as the good emperor said “It is not death that a man should fear, but never beginning to live”. We will all die, but should we live in such fear that we forget to live? The benefits of the Covid vaccine at least the Pfizer vaccine more than outweighs any risks. Getting together with family and friends becomes normal. Even the most reclusive of us need people. If there is an elderly relative or a young child you reduce the risk of infecting them if vaccinated. Wearing those troublesome masks will become a thing of the past. Many employers especially in critical industries will not offer you employment. You get to travel freely. If you are single you can date again with less fear. And should something go wrong the United States government has the Counter Measures Injury Compensation program that takes care of you for any possible side effects caused by a Covid vaccine. Now that is a good guarantee. We are so lucky to have the best vaccine and insurance while other countries are crying for any vaccine. I got mine and nothing has fallen off yet. I would rather live well than die slowly from fear. Sometimes we have to have a little courage and be pragmatic. Life never goes according to plan.

Had a little discussion with my cousin about cooking vegetables the other day. Many cultures seem to overcook their vegetables while the Chinese seem to be masters of steaming and stir frying their vegetables perfectly, retaining their nutrition. It took me years to steam broccoli just perfectly, retaining that color and firmness. My trick is to steam it covered for exactly 10 minutes starting with cold water although the Chinese blanche it in hot water for just a minute or so for stir fries. How do you make your vegetables? Boiling, roasting, cooking or steaming? The consensus seems to be steaming is better for the most part or at least not overcooking it.

When I used to live in Hong Kong and went to lunch with the office staff the custom was to always eat vegetables first, then protein and finally rice or noodles after a pause. The meal would last an hour at lunch and at dinner it would last maybe 2-3 hours. And each dish would come at intervals. And I used to never feel sleepy after the meal. It got me thinking. Should we save carbs for last and give it a 15-minute pause? A small study from Weil Cornell indicates glucose levels were 29%, 37% and 17% lower at the 30, 60 and 120-minute checks, compared with when carbohydrates were consumed first. They might be onto something. Give it a try and see if your food Coma is eliminated. And eat slowly. That could prevent the sudden rush of glucose. For diabetics this might be even more useful to control blood sugar levels. Apparently your body requires an acid base to digest proteins and an alkaline base to digest starches so keeping them separate might make even more sense.
