隔離14日，我其實適應無難度，以前寫書，閉關唔出街係常態，有十年時間，我一年四次，每次兩個月，在家。

而家唔慣既反而喺，今次好似有一個期限，呢14日，千祈唔好喉嚨痛唔好咳唔好發燒。。。

但係，無癥狀又如何？最近有研究指，六成確診者無癥狀。咁係咪，無癥狀都唔值得慶幸？

又其實，我會關心我身邊既人多過自己，親人千祈唔好有事，同事唔好有事，朋友唔好有事，醫護唔好有事，香港人唔好有事，人人都唔好有事，貓狗獅子老虎都唔好有事。

諗到呢度，要深呼吸。

無論有無事，隔離緊或者返緊工，最重要係保持樂觀。

唔樂觀，過份憂慮，免疫力降低，等於自廢七成武功。

我的抗疫日常，對一般人來說可能有點繁重，
但我一直有服用營養補充品，是驗身後經醫生配方，按照我的體質需要，只供各位參考：

維他命C
維他命E
維他命D3
維他命B6 鎂
Omega 3
Milk Thistle　（護肝）
益生菌　（保持腸道暢通）
DHEA
月見草油

另外，
一個檸檬 (混和少許溫水)
雞蛋
一日三餐
盡量接觸陽光
八小時以上睡眠
保持樂觀，每天找朋友傾談
關心他人，每天最少找一位舊朋友向他問好
閱讀
工作
讀新聞
Plank – 隔日做三分鐘

還有，我服用：
Tru Niagen　（防腦退化）
薑王素　

早前看到香港和英國朋友轉來的短訊，不知來源及真偽，
但我覺得內容正常及可接受（即使不完全正確亦無害），
提供給大家參考：

據說來自醫院康復患者的短訊：

//我們每天都醫院裡：

服用Vit C-1000
服用維生素E
陽光下15-20分鐘。
雞蛋一隻
休息7-8小時
每天喝1.5升水
吃熱盤，避免凍飲凍食。

那就是我們在醫院所做的。

冠狀病毒的pH從5.5到8.5不等。

要戰勝冠狀病毒，我們需要食用比該病毒的pH值還高的鹼性食物，其中包括：
檸檬　
牛油果　
大蒜　
芒果　
橙　
菠蘿　

怎麼知道您患病？
喉嚨發癢
失聲
乾咳
發燒
呼吸急促
味覺和嗅覺流失

當您注意這些事項時，請迅速將暖開水混和檸檬汁一起喝。

不要將這些資訊留給自己。 給所有的家人和朋友。//

據說來自英國護士的短訊：

//Finally, some sensible advice. From a GP Nurse in the UK.

What I have seen a lot of are recommendations for how to try to avoid getting coronavirus:
• hand washing
• personal hygiene
• social distancing

If you get Covid-19
You basically just want to prepare as though you know you’re going to get a nasty respiratory bug, like bronchitis or pneumonia. You just have the foresight to know it might come your way!

Things you should actually prepare ahead of time:
• Kleenex,
• Paracetamol,
• whatever your generic, mucus thinning cough medicine of choice is (check the label and make sure you're not doubling up on Paracetamol)
• Honey and lemon can work just as well!
• Vicks vaporub for your chest is also a great suggestion.
• a humidifier would be a good thing to buy and use in your room when you go to bed overnight. (You can also just turn the shower on hot and sit in the bathroom breathing in the steam).
• If you have a history of asthma and you have a prescription inhaler, make sure the one you have isn’t expired and refill it/get a new one if necessary.
• Meals This is also a good time to meal prep: make a big batch of your favorite soup to freeze and have on hand.
• Hydrate (drink!) hydrate, hydrate! Stock up on whatever your favorite clear fluids are to drink - though tap water is fine you may appreciate some variety!

For symptom management and a fever over 38°c
• take Paracetamol rather than Ibuprofen
• Rest lots. You should not be leaving your house!
• Even if you are feeling better you may will still be infectious for fourteen days and older people and those with existing health conditions should be avoided!
• Wear gloves and a mask to avoid contaminating others in your house
• Isolate in your bedroom if not living alone, ask friends and family to leave supplies outside to avoid contact.
• Sanitize your bed linen and clothes frequently by washing and clean your bathroom with recommended sanitizers.

If you are worried or in distress or feel your symptoms are getting worse:

Preexisting risks If you have a pre-existing lung condition (COPD, emphysema, lung cancer) or are on immunosuppressants, now is a great time to talk to your Doctor or specialist about what they would like you to do if you get sick.

Children- One major relief to you parents is that kids do VERY well with coronavirus— they usually bounce back in a few days (but they will still be infectious), Just use pediatric dosing .

Be calm and prepare rationally and everything will be fine.

This is to inform us all that the pH for corona virus varies from 5.5 to 8.5.

All we need to do, to beat corona virus, we need to take more of an alkaline foods that are above the above pH level of the Virus.

Some of which are:
Lemon water
Lime water
Avocado
Garlic
Mango
Tangerine
Pineapple
Dandelion
Orange

How do you know you have coronavirus?
1. Itching in the throat
2. Dry throat
3. Dry cough
4. High temperature
5. Shortness of breath

So where you notice these things quickly take warm water with lemon and drink.

Do not keep this information to yourself only. Pass it to all your family and friends. God bless you.//

使用營養食品導致急性肝衰竭而致命的案例。癌友在選用營養食品時，仍須謹慎小心，一般建議盡量攝取天然的食物即可。

<印度Herbalife(賀X芙)產品-和致命性急性肝衰竭有關-重金屬、毒性化合物、細菌污染和精神用藥>

這是一篇發表於2019年的case report。

一名24歲女性患有甲狀腺機能低下症，沒有其他慢性疾病，過去五年補充甲狀腺素（每天75mcg），在BMI為32.1時開始補充在當地營養俱樂部所販售的 Herbalife 產品。

在此期間，這名女性沒有服用任何其他藥物或補充和替代的藥物。兩個月後，他開始食慾下降長達一個禮拜，接著有黃疸和短暫的搔癢症出現。

初步的血液檢查顯示：
Total serum bilirubin level was 12.4 (upper limit of normal [ULN] 1.1 mg/dL); direct bilirubin, 9.9 (ULN 0.2 mg/dL); aspartate aminotransferase, 582 (ULN 36 U/L); alanine aminotransferase, 648 (ULN 45 U/L); alkaline phosphatase, 248 (ULN 120 U/L); gamma-glutamyl transferase level, 398 (ULN 35 U/L); albumin, 3 (ULN 5.5 g/dL) and international normalised ratio, 4.7 (normal < 1.2).

12天後，黃疸惡化(total bilirubin 28.6 mg/dL)，接著進展到第三級肝性腦病變。

▪️急性和慢性病毒性肝炎的血液檢查包括 herpes simplex and zoster virus, cytomegalovirus, parvovirus, human immunodeficiency virus and human T-cell lymphotropic virus and autoimmune hepatitis (antinuclear antibody, anti-liver kidney muscle antibody type 1,anti-smooth muscle antibody) 為陰性。
▪️Serum gamma globulins 升高 (2682 mg/dL, 正常 620–1400)。
▪️自身免疫性肝炎的評分（The simplified autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) score）為4分（ score <6 不太可能是AIH）。
▪️Serum ceruloplasmin ＆ iron studies 是正常的。
▪️腹部超音波顯示脂肪肝腫大、正常膽道和血管解剖，沒有門靜脈高壓。

👉評估 Herbalife 產品所造成肝臟之不良反應， Roussel Uclaf causality assessment method (RUCAM)評分為6分，表示可能有不良反應。

頸靜脈肝臟切片（transjugular liver biopsy）顯示 extensive periportal and perivenular bridging necrosis，伴隨中度到重度的發炎浸潤、介面性肝炎、膽管炎、膽汁淤積等......（圖1）。

這名女性被轉介到移植中心後，在等待候補名單時去世了。研究人員很難從失去親人的家庭中去取得相同的 Herbalife 產品，但可以從當初這位女性購買產品的店家去取得。這間營養俱樂部在沒有許可證的情況下，以健康和保健的名義來銷售 Herbalife 產品，最後已被政府下令關閉。

研究人員還從網路上去取得類似的 Herbalife 產品，並對其進行了重金屬分析、毒理學和細菌污染研究。分析結果如表1顯示。

研究人員在 Herbalife 的產品中發現了高濃度的重金屬和未公開的有毒化合物（75%的樣本中含有精神用藥）。在微生物分析中，從63%的樣品中分離出了細菌脫氧核糖核酸。16s RNA 分析顯示了Herbalife產品中的多種細菌群落，包括高致病性物種（圖2）。

【食材小知識】屬性平和食物多吃無妨

#身體陰陽平衡比較容易懷孕
#每人身體狀況不同建議諮詢醫師意見
#星期四食材

備孕宜吃平性食物
有說備孕時多吃酸性或鹼性的食物，就有助懷有男孩子或女孩子，根據中醫典籍，食物則著重按其屬性及食療價值分類。如想增加懷孕機率，建議多進食屬性平和的食物，因為任何體質均適合食用。而屬性寒涼的食物要少吃，因為「血遇寒則凝滯」，容易損傷身人體陽氣，導致女性子宮寒冷，難以受孕。

屬性平和的蔬菜：菜心、芥蘭、津白、椰菜、西蘭花、椰菜花、茼蒿、節瓜、佛手瓜、豆角、紅菜頭、紅蘿蔔、粟米、薯仔、蓮藕、番薯、芋頭、竹笙、木耳、雪耳/黃耳、蟲草花、淮山、百合、蓮子、茨實、猴頭菇、冬菇、紅豆、黃豆、扁豆、眉豆、赤小豆

屬性平和的水果：無花果、蘋果、木瓜、牛油果、紅/青葡萄、檸檬、李子、菠蘿、布冧

屬性平和的肉類：豬、烏雞、鵝、鵪鶉、鴿

屬性平和的海鮮：蠔、鮑魚、扇貝、鱸魚、鯽魚、鯉魚、魷魚、銀魚、鯪魚、鰻魚、沙甸魚、泥鰍、吞拿魚、三文魚

[米水常見問題]
問：備孕中可以飲米水嗎？米水中含有薏米啊！
答：我們建議備孕中的男女飲食均衡，以攝取多方面的營養，而米水在備孕期間仍然可以飲用，米水中加入適量薏米是取其健脾滲濕功效，整體配方屬性平和，養成每天飲用米水的習慣，更有助養好脾胃，脾胃好即擁有健康基礎，身體健康自然增加懷孕機會了。備孕更建議飲加了黑豆黑芝麻的夕米水，健脾胃之外更有補腎作用。
一旦確認懷孕了，就可以轉飲不含薏米的米水了！
