In reference to your upcoming vaccination ...

Most people don't experience side effects, but
some do; young adults are the most often affected.

Apparently the spike proteins synthesized and
released into the bloodstream like to attach to
epithelial cells, particularly in ovaries and
artery walls, attracting unwelcome attention of
the immune system to those loci.

A paper published last week covered results of a
randomly-controlled-trial administering arginine
supplements along with vaccinations, that proved
to substantially reduce incidence of unwelcome
side effects.

The good news is you can buy arginine right off
the shelf, and cheaply. You might not find out
if you *would have* got those side effects, which
may be disappointing, but that is much better
than actually having them. If in fact you would
not have, the excess arginine is at absolute worst
totally harmless.

If you don't feel like buying arginine tablets,
you can fill up on walnuts, almonds, or even
peanuts, which all deliver a nice surplus of
arginine.

(This will be my only mention of vaccines here.
I hope the mention was not unwelcome.)
