May I ask if you had gut/intestine problems before?
- treeman79 4y agoYes. Had tons of random problems. Ended up being autoimmune Sjogrens and a clotting disorder. Diet changes and supplements are how I got thing under control for most issues. Blood thinners for Clotting since That’s way to dangerous, and no combination of anything else helped. LDN covers symptoms when I’m not strict about diet.
- mgraupner 4y agoInteresting. I had similar symptoms like migraine/brain fog, stiff neck and muscle tension as soon as October (winter in Central Europe) came. Tested for Vitamin D deficiency and had super low levels. Since taking supplements I feel good in winter for the first time in probably 5 years. I'm also a very outdoorsy person, so getting enough sun is not always a sure way wo have high levels of Vitamin D.
- jerf 4y ago"Sun" is definitely not sufficient. Vitamin D synthesis requires UVB exposure [1] and that plummets to effectively zero in the higher latitudes in the winter: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5037520/#sec3-nutrients-08-00533title https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5037520/#sec3-n... By "higher latitudes" I mean considered on a global scale; continental Europe is effectively all at these "higher latitudes".
