    Nigel Wright started the topic Covid 19 Millions Suffer but is it a Blessing in Disguise for PF Patients ? in the forum Join the Discussion: Welcome to all PF/IPF Patients 1 year, 5 months ago

    Research into PF & IPF is restricted by the lack of Funding and Resources due to the relative low numbers of sufferers and therefore classified as a Rare Disease.  Also when treatments are developed they tend to be very expensive and can cause patient distress. However with millions around the world now suffering from Covid 19 it is predicted…[Read more]

    Nigel Wright replied to the topic EGCG Green Tea Extract in the forum Clinical Trials 1 year, 10 months ago

    Green Tea extract is interesting and 600mg per day looks ok but it states on the jar take with food but other posts say better absorbed on an empty stomach ?
    Question is it safe to take 600mg at the same time or should you divide it morning and night and if taken in one go should it be on an empty stomach
