A new research study finds that the drug Fenofibrate — which is used to help keep cholesterol levels low — can potentially help treat patients suffering from the coronavirus. The study, which was recently highlighted by Knowridge, relays that the coronavirus typically impacts the body’s ability to burn carbohydrates. This, in turn, causes “large amounts of fat to accumulate inside lung cells, a condition the virus needs in order to reproduce.”...
...One of the study’s authors, Professor Yaakov Nahmias, adds:
We showed that the human lungs responded to the SARS-CoV-2 virus by completely changing their metabolism, causing a major buildup of fats in lung cells. Our findings show that this unhealthy fat buildup is a critical factor in COVID-19 patient’s deterioration....

"we show that PPARα-agonist fenofibrate reversed the metabolic changes induced by SARS-CoV-2 blocking viral replication. Taken together, our data suggest that elevated lipid metabolism may underlie aspects of COVID-19 pathogenesis, offering new therapeutic avenues in targeting this critical pathway on which the virus relies."

I take fenofibrate and atorvastatin for high cholesterol. So fenofibrate has been protecting me from the China virus? Who knew?!
How about telling people to cut,out carbs and refined sugars if they get it? Go keto to reduce this from being able to occur?
Nope we need yet another drug.
It’s not about healing or preventing, it’s about control. The elite ruling class have found their red herring that everyone will fall for. Screw the peasants, we are in control.
FYI - From GoodRX,as of Dec, 22, 2020 publish date, a list of what’s being used and what’s not being used to treat active covid.
In response to rumors that ivermectin is a treatment, please note the CDC warning the effective dose needed is 100x the toxic level for humans. Don’t be eating ivermectin

They never told them to build their immune system with Vit D3, the anti-viral black elderberry and myriad other nutrients so it’s not likely they’ll push keto. Maybe they really don’t want us getting better 🤔
She never did me no harm.
The hookah smoking caterpillar said go ask Alice.
I don’t know where you got that info, but the dosage of Ivermectin used in the Argentina study was *not* a toxic dose.
I don’t remember: Are eggs killing or saving me today?
Yeah it was writen sarcastically.
The whole time they’e crapped on safer alternatives/preventatives.
They had to, in order to get fast track status for their “vaccines”.
Yeah, well, now that biden is soon to be installed as dictator in chief, in order for him to miraculously cure COVID with his stellar handling of the situation, they have to come up,with something to make him look good.
I would not doubt that they have been holding out on us for that very reason, being willing to sacrifice untold lives to further their political agenda.
that’s from the goodrx article/link
Its always funny they think they’ll make it through all that unscathed
Rarely works out that way.
dictator sounds like an awfully harsh word. Thief in chief sounds better.
How about telling people to cut,out carbs and refined sugars if they get it? Go keto to reduce this from being able to occur?

Yup. Been on low carb for about a year. Lost 25 pounds and feel better.
Things that supposedly aid in Covid prevention.
Not vouching for any.
Melatonin
Famotidine
Zinc 50mg
