Who Are We?
We are a group of long haulers who have spent years researching various routines, hacks, and supplements in an attempt to alleviate the debilitating symptoms of long COVID. Our experiences have been similar to those reported on Reddit, with temporary relief often followed by a complete relapse. Recently, we discovered two lesser-known, widely available food supplements that have shown consistent and significant results in reducing physical fatigue, depression/anhedonia, and brain fog within our small group. We have decided to conduct a survey to gather more data on the effectiveness of these supplements, with the ultimate goal of encouraging government and health officials to fund clinical trials if our findings are promising.
As an independent, self-funded group with no affiliation to any brands or manufacturers, we have no financial interest in the outcome of this survey. We would like to clarify that this study is not conducted by a licensed medical professional or institution. Participants will be asked to complete an initial questionnaire, purchase the recommended food supplement, take the supplement for at least five days, and then complete a follow-up questionnaire. Each survey should take about 10 minutes to complete. The supplements are generally recognized as safe, but participants should consult with a healthcare professional to ensure the supplement is appropriate for them. Participation is voluntary, and all information provided will be kept confidential but may be shared in an anonymized form in the future.

If you have any questions, you can contact us at longcovidwatch@gmail.com. Please note that this is an unpaid trial, and participants are responsible for purchasing their own supplements. However, these supplements are inexpensive and can be found over-the-counter in most countries.
We have already had 50 participants in the study, but participation is at your own risk. While we are not health professionals and cannot provide medical advice, we encourage you to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to ensure the supplement is right for you. Our primary objective is to determine whether these unknown supplements can relieve specific long-COVID symptoms and garner the attention of health officials and researchers for further investigation.
