Today is Day 265 of my Daily Food Diary. Only 70 Days or 10 Weeks to go! I thought that by being mindful of what I ate each and every day, 2025 would pass by at an overall slower pace. But here we are, the year is almost over, and the days and weeks are flying by.
I am four nights into using our living room air purifier in our bedroom. This has proven itself helpful enough for keeping my sinuses and lungs clear at night that I ordered another air purifier last night – one that will live in our bedroom but that can be easily moved into the kitchen occasionally – if need be.
Every little thing helps or hurts when it comes to living with chronic health issues. With my lung issues diet, air quality, stress, sleep, and level of activity can mean the difference between a really good day or a struggle. Some things I can control, others I just have to deal with.
The worst thing these days is excess humidity. We can control that to a point with our dehumidifier but there’s not a lot I can do outdoors. If I avoid the outdoors, it means less fresh air and less activity. 🤷
The best thing these days is taking collagen supplements. They have been a gamechanger for me – strengthening and stabilizing my respiratory system and improving my health and wellbeing in general. 🤗
