in this report it generally says it regulates bile acids. Rather then taking an antiparasitic drug the rest of your life. I would suggest lecithin it compensates for the loss of bile as you get older. I've been using the sesame seed liquid lecithin.
The antiparasitic drug ivermectin is a novel FXRligand that regulates metabolism.

"The baseline abundance of Coprobacillus, Clostridium ramosum, and Clostridium hathewayi correlated with COVID-19 severity; there was an inverse correlation between abundance of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii (an anti-inflammatory bacterium) and disease severity. Over the course of hospitalization, Bacteroides dorei, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, Bacteroides massiliensis, and Bacteroides ovatus, which downregulate expression of ACE2 in murine gut, correlated inversely with SARS-CoV-2 load in fecal samples from patients"

ThankQ. Just to clarify, I’m not planning on continnuing to take Ivermectin, although I think it’s a good idea for a household to keep some on hand for family members. Early treatment for Covid is best, and so far that applies to vaxxed and unvaxxed until I find research that says otherwise. :)
