| 0:00.0 | Well, family, it's episode 186 of the Genius Life. Let's go. |
| 0:17.6 | What's going on, everybody? How you doing? Happy Wednesday. |
| 0:20.8 | It's good to be back with you guys. I am just finishing up day 10 |
| 0:27.0 | of my COVID-19 experience, which I'm sure you're familiar with. |
| 0:31.8 | Have you followed me on Instagram? It has not been a walk in the park. |
| 0:35.7 | Going to be totally honest with you guys. It caught me completely off card. |
| 0:39.4 | And yeah, I am very happy to be over with this stuff with this thing. |

| 1:41.1 | And I also took lots of fish oil, which I haven't seen on anybody's COVID |
| 1:46.1 | 19 protocols. But to me, it makes a lot of sense that fish oil would help in part |
| 1:51.3 | because of its inflammation, resolving abilities. But also because it's a blood |
| 1:56.6 | thinner. And we know that some people have been experiencing blood clots with COVID-19. |
| 2:02.2 | And yeah, other than that, I would say that my symptoms were on the mild to moderate side. |
| 2:09.5 | I really felt like crap the entire 10 days. I was dizzy. I was nauseous. |
