I have been taking 5000 iu of D3 daily due to the pandemic.

I try to keep up with studies that indicate some potential to mitigate the deleterious effects of the disease.

I also have some melatonin on hand in case I show symptoms and I now take low-dosage aspirin daily based on some studies that indicate better results if for those who take that.

All of those are inexpensive and have a low toxicity.

Good idea. I like dark chocolate and I know the benefits, so I will also add that to my regime.

Fluoridate your water too, UK, in case that's not widespread there either!

It's been done in the USA since the 1930's, I think.

Lowered the cases of rickets among African Americans, among other things.
