Man is this post workout drink good. The best thing I have done healthwise in years. The condition and count of one’s red blood cells, is central to one’s overall health.
In many ways I view health maintenance differently now than I did prior to Covid. In particular, the critical impact that fibrin has in terms of blood clotting and flow, has been an eye opener for me in terms of both Covid mortality as well as overall human health. Do not infer from your doctor’s lack of concern over anemia or excessive blood coagulopathy, that therefore these health impactors are of little importance. The condition and count of one’s red blood cells, is central to one’s overall health. Seventy five percent of all Covid mortality was associated with thromboembolic and endothelial coagulopathy (fibrin and blood vessel wall damage) – and the resulting sepsis and loss in red blood cells.1
As well, if you are homozygous C677T MTHFR (rs1801133: AA – 7.4% of the US population) in particular, both the red blood cell (RBC) count as well as coagulopathy state of your blood are critical metrics inside evaluating your overall health. The insoluble protein fibrin, that acts as a red blood cell coagulation first responder whenever your body is injured, can also present a grave threat when negatively impacting the circulatory as well as body-wide organ, structural, and nervous systems.
Rather than go into all the theory behind this, let me bury the lede no further, and outline for you what I have found to be a very effective post-Covid, post-workout supplement beverage in terms of red blood cell health – a supplement regimen (in addition to regular B, C, and D vitamins, copper, selenium, zinc, as well as other micronutrients) which targets specifically this major health-impacting issue. I have made major improvements in my post-Covid health by adding this beverage to my diet, after workout.

Mitochondrial health:
Your post workout formula is great 👍
Performance enhancing?
No Itien, LOL!! It is mostly a way to keep your body from going into mitochondrial suppression. :-)
That’s too bad. If this helps with blood flow, like sildenafil, then I assumed it could be a performance enhancer by increasing blood flow. I’m always looking for that performance edge. :)
My understanding was that the fibrinolytic properties of nattokinase and serrapeptidase only occur when ingested on an empty stomach?
Good point Mehen. I take another round of both during an empty stomach earlier in the day. I suppose it is the presence/type of protein in the food, since these catalyze fibrin proteins. The almond milk has some protein, as well as the coconut powder. I will have to research it some more.
Thank you. Essential knowledge, obfuscated by the Party.
Vitamin-D adequacy 9even optimization) is important for stabilization of clotting and reduction of endothelial inflammation. Levls of 30-100 are considered normal, but levels above 50-60 are likely ideal,especially for people with immune system dysfunction, like autoimmune disease (which COVID vaccination can induce). David Grimes MD is a medical expert on vitamin-D. Here is is site: http://www.drdavidgrimes.com/ His most recent post uses Public Health Canada cumulative data, subtracting one week from the succeeding week by groups, to determine: “Covid-19 deaths among the unvaccinated increased from 9511 to 9512, an increase during the week of just one. Only 1 of the 227… Read more »
