Summary
They had long COVID with about two years in remission before a stressful week in November 2025 brought their worst crash, which was still ongoing in March 2026. Nattokinase supplements caused discomfort, so they ate natto beans daily and felt energy improve after about two weeks, with muscle weakness improving over 30 days of daily packs.
