MHGinTN pointed out to me your info on Zinc Picolinate
I see in your comments: “Zinc Picolinate and Quercitin (Another Zinc tunnel maker like HCQ but not as potent) and vitamin D3 as my prophylaxis.”
Would really appreciate your perspective on this study which indicates that the supplement EGCG is an even more effective “Zinc tunnel maker”.
Wouldn’t it be amazing if we Freepers could arrive at an OTC version of the HCQ + Zpak + Zinc protocol, and that it approach that efficacy?!
I’m less than an hour N of New Orleans and lost an aunt there two weeks ago. She was 80 w many pre-existig conditions, but hadn’t left her house in several weeks. She was rushed to the hospital w breathing issues put on a vent and died days later. Several days after, the test came back that she was positive for COVID-19.
My parents are both in their late 80’s & are OK living alone in their own home. They’re near us, N of N.O. but my 2 sisters and I are now even more cautious when going over there.
Like everyone, we’re trying to learn whatever we can to fight this.
I drink 2 cups of Matcha tea a day because I like it so I have been covered on EGCG for a long time.
I haven’t come across a substitute for Z-pack’s mechanism, but I do think extra sleep, EGCG, Quercetin, and Zinc will do just fine.
Watch MedCram videos on YouTube. A hot bath, followed by cold air or cooler water, greatly enhances the “innate immune system,” which is the main part of our immune system that seems to get depressed by COVID.
That doctor shows how sleep and the hot/cold event each day can help deal with the hospital refusals to not take anyone until major issues occur or the 12th day of infection. These other supplements are additional icing on the cake.
It’s strange to know empty hospitals are refusing patients with COVID until they are in a very serious situation, meaning the drugs won’t likely be given until then.
