Particularly during this time of year when flu runs rampant, vitamin D is a really big deal as it works with our immune systems to combat influenza. Sunlight is one of the best ways to take in vitamin D, but that's not always available for some climates. I try to get at least 30 minutes of sunlight per day. Short of that, there are vitamin D supplements. The old saying, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, is a true statement I think.  

Thank you so much Craig,    yep  I am  on a  yearly  uptake of vitamins   -  Vit C  1000mg  (I take  500mg  a  day  but have upped it to 1000mg  -  I  smash it up in a cup  and  take with  Lemsip  powders)   also   take  Vit D  1000mg  daily    Zinc   and   Hemp  capsules   all   to  try to build  up my Immune system.

Lack of fresh air  hasn't helped  as  its  been  very very wet   for the last  few weeks,   we  have  been  indoors  with  the  heating on  (I know  that  doesn't help much).

Try keeping a bedroom window open about 1 - 2 inches at night while you sleep regardless of outside temperatures.  Your bedroom should be cooler anyway while you sleep. Close the window when you awaken in morning.  I've been doing that for nearly 80 years and rarely do I get flu. My parents started me on that routine as a child.  I can’t stand sleeping in hotels/motels with their sealed windows. 

 

Get well soon.

Evening all,    I must be on the mend  mainly  just left  with a loss  of taste  and  a  bit  of  a  groggy head,   anyway  I managed to  do an hour  on the bench  adding a few  more  paint layers  on the  injured  bunch,     no pics  as  my  phone  was flat.

 

Good  to  be  back  on it  instead of feeling sorry  for  myself.

Evening all,   I decided  to  drag  myself  to  the  bench   and   do  a bit   -   I  found another  Frenchy  in my stash  so decided  to  make him as a  dissmounted  Cuirassier   (the  idea  is  -  he  has  lost  his  horse  and  Cuirass  and  using his  musket).

 

I have also  added  a  wash  to  my  injured.

 

Was   good  to   do  abit   great  how  you  transport  into another  world  while   modeling.

Your wounded look good. The washes really make them pop. The dismounted  Cuirassier looks to be an interesting project with his weapons and that helmet. looking forward to how this turns out. 😄
