Drama queens gotta be well dramatic. š
Great to hear about yr entire family and blessings from the author of blessings. If He May.
Yes, you said that before, that is why I pointed out that Dr. Z’s protocol is only 5 to 7 days. When I am only using for health maintenance I use a good one a day multi vitamin and mineral morning and evening which gives some zinc along with coppeer, also 2 cal/mag/zinc tablets a day, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D3 5000 IU with low sun, or less when lots of sun and I am outdoors. I also use a number of other supplements and have for many years. When I have a body problem I do a Google search of the problem and “nutrition and supplement problems to help.” Three years ago I hurt my knee while crawling out a small window to put a new roof on my porch. MSM, condroiton complex, and various colagin and sea creature supplements may have helped solve my knee issue. Two years ago I realized that I was having a cataract problem, but did not want surgery. I started taking 20 mg. Lutien and 4 mg. Astaxanthine morning and evening, and the cataract is less than 1/4th the severity it was before. I am now 82 and still spry and active.
I personally have not had any noticeable result with lutein, but will look into astaxanthin for its use in various aspects of tissue repair. Thanks.

Oh, I have already been taking it, a variation spelled as “zeaxanthin”.
Vitamin C needs are highly variable. Your body tends to run out of C after 5 or 6 hours. I have allergies to household dust, cool tempereature molds, and several others. My main symptom is nasal congestion. I have been taking 3 to 6 grams of C for over 45 years, usually spread over 3 or 4 times a day. When I am going to clean house I take 1 to 2000 mg before stiring up the dust. I have taken 20 grams of C in divided doses when sick with the flu. Needs are very individual. If you are taking too much you will get burning urine, acid farts or diarrhea, then reduce what you are taking. This is called taking to “bowel tolerance.” See Dr. Cathcart for more on Medicinal uses of C. I think that adequate Vitamin D is important in preventing the post Covid micro-bleeding events. Also very important for darker skinned people who have trouble absorbing D through their skin.
Also, I wanted to point out that, although Dr. Z stipulates a limited-duration regimen, many people will see 50 mg zinc and take that amount until it runs out.
Note that I have been taking 40 mg a day of Lutien for 2 years. Sometimes I have taken zeaxantine when I didnt fint astaxantine.
Just to clarify, Dr. Z said 220 mg zinc sulfate, one daily 5 to 7 days for treatment, a lot less for health maintenance. The 50 mg. ELEMENTAL ZINC was because there are a number of different forms of zinc, and I have not found zinc sulfate, so you have to calculate how much actual zinc is in each tablet. I have zinc oxide 50 mg, but it has a much smaller amount of elemental zinc, so I calculated I needed to take 5 of those tablets to get 50 mg. of elemental zinc, which I would only do if I thought I was sick with Covid. Currently I take one every other day along with what I mentioned taking before.
As I might have mentioned in this thread, I take 22 mg of the easily-absorbed zinc picolinate and deem it adequate. Quercetin bromelain also for ionophore function; itself a well-absorbed form.
Exactly! Who the heck wants to sneeze into a mask and then walk around with snot on your face? Yuck.
Except then you can wash your hands or dispose of the tissue. If you sneeze into your mask, yuck.
Same and same.
I won’t fly again until airlines drop the mask requirement.
And I won’t attend church in person until the mask requirement is dropped once we’re seated (socially distanced).
Thank you again for bring up astaxantin and the “z” variation. I actually quit taking the “z” this past spring when I didn’t feel it was doing anything and I started taking so many other supplements for covid defense and also other conditions. I had become vaguely aware that my skin seemed much more dry since about that time and was puzzled. Thinking it was one of the new supplements that was causing it. Well, it turns out that astaxantin creates a moisturizing effect on the skin, a fairly pronounced one, and withdrawing it should cause the opposite. I have re-commenced starting today and looking forward to the results!
Totally agree. I hate face diapers
I donāt care if you choose to wear a mask. It brightens my day to laugh at the idiots that do so when I see them. I get a kick out of the sheeple that willingly comply with Demwits. Have fun! I certainly will. ;)
Your post suggests otherwise.
What shameless lying:
ā...although there might be a symbolic effect,ā she wrote in an email, āthe effect of wearing a mask does not substantially reduce riskā
There was no statistically valid difference within the study between those wearing and not wearing masks, so the study doesn’t show any reduction of risk at all (and of course therefore no substantial reduction of risk).
They donāt do any good
thank you.
Way back in Jan of last year I said the same thing.
In fact there used to be the report/study from the 1918 pandemic that said as much too. Good luck finding it now!
People wonder why I love old books.
