The ammo



Prednisone: corticosteroid which suppresses the production of antibodies by a body's immune system; it can reduce inflammation and swelling

Bactrim: prophylactic antibiotic; prevents infections like bacterial pneumonia — necessary when one is left hanging out in the breeze without a functioning immune system

Pantoprazole: proton-pump inhibitor which suppresses production of stomach acid since steroids are hard on the stomach

calcium citrate with vitamin D: because steroids suck calcium from the blood

CoQ10: supports muscle building

fish oil pills: good source of Omega-3 fatty acids which reduce inflammation, improve bone strength, improve sleep, and reduce risk of colon cancer

milk thistle: thought to reduce damage to the liver. My liver enzyme levels are high because it is having to process all the detritus from the dead and dying muscle cells, so it could use some support. 

turmeric: reduces inflammation and increases the antioxidant capacity of the body

stanky teas: various antioxidant tea blends containing green rooibos, ginseng, elderberry, dandelion root, chamomile, ginger, etc. Designed to support immune system, digestion, and mental vitality


Not pictured because they are gummies for kids and might make it look like I'm not taking this regimen seriously: iron, multivitamins, Vitamin C
