Took a day off the new supplements today because I've been suffering from shortness of breath, erratic heartbeat and nausea that this morning came to a head, shall we say, in spectacular fashion. The swollen throat also means I choke and cough when I lie down. Most of these symptoms are associated with salicylate overload and it's possible I've had too much fruit and veg lately. Silly me, trying to eat a bit more healthily within my limits, but it's mostly been "safe" stuff like potato, celery, and cabbage. Who knows what the supplements are doing to me.

I also had some Clinkers recently which was Very Naughty – food colouring and fruit flavours are definite no-nos. Worse, it was Bad Science to mess with too many variables at once. I have nerd shame.
