[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2229570, member: 493719"] Interesting and correct in what you say, [USER=57698]@lindisfel[/USER] [USER=44643]@Robinredbreast[/USER] and as the original post was asking for the Co-morbidity of Diabetics and the data sets very much suggest Diabetics and asthmatics along with age are at greater risk. So what CAN we do So for Diabetics the issues is the insulin, better management of symptoms does seem to point at better outlook with diabetes fewer complications etc. and for the flu and Covid the compromised airways of asthmatics does seem reasonable that it is [B]THAT[/B] reaction during infections that is a factor in the illness being more harmful For ME....LCHF has given me better lipids panels since Dx (very poor back in 2010-2018 DX) so that will continue. The Vit C (while intravenous ) as pointed out, does seem to offer some extra assistance if taken orally, (thank you [USER=160246]@Winnie53[/USER] ) so that is on my list. And for me..and this is purely anecdotal, Ginger has helped my asthma. (pre DX i was always getting colds, one led onto a scary asthma attack that shook me I googled and found Ginger offered properties that MAY help asthma and respiratory illnesses. which it did to my mind..no attacks and no colds.Win. So i will for the foreseeable future be upping my ginger intake and adding that to more dishes where appropriate and going back to making a daily pot of fresh ginger tea. So for me all of the Above and hoping EVERYONE follows the Guidelines re washing hands etc. be interested in what other might be doing. [/QUOTE]
