Most here should already know this because it has been posted numerous times beginning in March 2020, but you newbies should study up.

If you test positive for Covid, make sure you get Quercetn that absorbs. The study used a lipid base. We take 500 mg of nano-Quercetin.

I don’t think so. I’ve been taking Quercetin, zinc, vitamin D, quinine, resveratrol, etc and I got two colds after getting Covid. Did it help with Covid, I don’t know but I’m 53, in good shape and was in/out with Covid in 3 days.

Oh and I over dosed on “Airborne” as well. I think that helps too

Larger vitamin stores. Amazon. Online vitamin stores. It’s a food product made from onions.

Quercetin is a zinc ionophore, provides the same service as HCQ. Needs zinc to work. Zinc is actually doing the work of interfering with viral replication.

HCQ is a medicine and does have side effects. Quercetin is found in onions, safer and needs no scrip to buy.

SARS-2 is primarily cardiovascular. That’s been known for about two years now, virtually from the start. PubMed is filled with papers to that effect. Freepers don’t read PubMed, they prefer kook sites.

“I have been taking quercetin for more than forty years. It is commonly available in grocery stores”

Including the onion bin. IIRC red onion has a higher content.

“For now it is, until they start banning it’s sale.”

So Team Q believes that onions are on the hit list?

“Quercetin is contained in abundance in apples, honey, raspberries, onions, red grapes, cherries, citrus fruits, and green leafy vegetables. Among vegetables and fruits, quercetin content is highest in onions. The bulb color and type seems to be a determining factor for quercetin concentration in onions.”

I always did like onion soup. Now I’m going to go bonkers. As a fun side take I can go into the grocerie store and stand next to some Karen or Ken and cut a nice ripe one.

I have quercetin and am taking it.....

someday, when the world hopefully returns to sanity, we need to figure out how much fruit/veggies we need to eat to provide the same protection as our supplements....

I don't think COVID-19 is foremost a respiratory disease; it looks like an epithelial disease. The virus is bonding with the ACE2 receptors, which is interfering with the body's ability to keep free radicals in check. This is causing O2. to form, which is probably combining into H2O2, because the ACE2 enzymes are blocked from doing their job.

The Glutathione antioxidants are supposed to provide the missing electrons to the O2. or help reduce the hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water and replenish the body's supply of Glutathione, but the level of Glutathione in seniors can't keep up with the rapidity of the virus in blocking the ACE2 receptors from keeping the oxidation in check in the early stages. This is why it appears to affect seniors the most, because of their degraded ability to produce Glutathione.

Once the harmful O2. and H2O2 run wild, it presents itself as cardiovascular in the end as lung and blood issues. We know that by the time people have breathing problems and need ventilators, it's often too late.

But what this doctor is showing is what is going on before the onset of "long COVID." That's the window of opportunity to stop the oxidative distress by boosting Glutathione with IV NAC before it can do damage to the rest of the body.

MedCram is not a kook site. Watch the molecular biology videos by an MD professor and ICU doctor.

If you had been reading at PubMed you would have known all of this well over a year ago. It’s not new, except here at FR, where kook sites and talk radio are the primary source for covid info. Go over to PubMed and use the search function and you’ll be swamped with studies. eg:

PubMed Sept 2020:

“Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infects host cells through angiotensin converting enzyme 2 receptors, leading to coronavirus disease (COVID-19)-related pneumonia, and also causing acute cardiac injury and chronic damage to the cardiovascular system. “

Pubmed July 2020:

“Initially, SARS-CoV-2 infects cells in the respiratory system and causes inflammation and cell death. Subsequently, the virus spreads out and damages other vital organs and tissues, triggering a complicated spectrum of pathophysiological changes and symptoms, including cardiovascular complications. Acting as the receptor for SARS-CoV entering mammalian cells, angiotensin converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) plays a pivotal role in the regulation of cardiovascular cell function. Diverse clinical manifestations and laboratory abnormalities occur in patients with cardiovascular injury in COVID-19, characterizing the development of this complication, as well as providing clues to diagnosis and treatment.”

Get some oysters too and you’ll be set. High zinc content.

Quercetin:

“Fruits and vegetables are the primary dietary sources of quercetin, particularly citrus fruits, apples, onions, parsley, sage, tea, and red wine. Olive oil, grapes, dark cherries, and dark berries such as blueberries, blackberries, and bilberries are also high in quercetin and other flavonoids.”

zinc:

“Meat. Meat is an excellent source of zinc . ...
Shellfish. Shellfish are healthy, low-calorie sources of zinc. ...
Legumes. Legumes like chickpeas, lentils and beans all contain substantial amounts of zinc. ...
Seeds. ...
Nuts. ...
Dairy. ...
Eggs. ...
Whole Grains.

Are you just being snarky or do you see the sarcasm in the comment?

Are you aware that the FDA sent warning letters in July 2020 to companies selling NAC products (see here, here, here, here), declaring them to be illegal dietary supplements?

From the FDA letters:

Based on the product label on your website, it appears that you intend to market your Hangover Heaven Nightlife Prep Supplement product, which contains N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), as a dietary supplement. However, even if your product labeling did not have therapeutic claims that make your product an unapproved new drug, your product could not be a dietary supplement, because it does not meet the definition of dietary supplement under section 201(ff) of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 321(ff)]. FDA has concluded that NAC products are excluded from the dietary supplement definition under section 201(ff)(3)(B)(i) of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 321(ff)(3)(B)(i)]. Under this provision, if an article (such as NAC) has been approved as a new drug under section 505 of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 355], then products containing that article are outside the definition of a dietary supplement, unless before such approval that article was marketed as a dietary supplement or as a food. NAC was approved as a new drug under section 505 of the Act [21 U.S.C. § 355] on September 14, 1963. FDA is not aware of any evidence that NAC was marketed as a dietary supplement or as a food prior to that date.

Are you aware that this scared GNC into removing NAC supplements from their stores?

Are you aware that two nutrition groups petitioned the FDA to reverse their position that NAC is not a dietary supplement?

Can you see why people might be joking that Quercetin might be next if they believe that the FDA might be protecting the vaccines by suppressing potential COVID-19 readily available therapeutics?
