I’d love to see a study done on simple diet and exercise stuff and COVID-19 and not say it stops you from getting the virus but if this helps minimize your symptoms

I take zinc picolinate every day. Super protective. The picolinate form is more readily absorbed and also more expensive.

Diet and exercise can keep you healthy. You need to keep your immune system strong. Zinc picolinate, Vitamin C, D-3, A, and Iodine. Iodine is a bit challenging to find. Use iodized salt, of course, but too much salt is bad. I buy granulated kelp and sprinkle in in tomato juice with a slice of lemon, or on a salmon patty (Costco has great wild-caught Alaskan salmon patties at a reasonable price).

Interestingly, chloroquine — which some people suggested as a treatment option early on in the pandemic – increases the cells uptake of zinc, which may underlie some of its positive effects

Look for Democrats to introduce bills banning zinc as causing cancer in all sorts of mammals including Californians.

No wonder why I never really got sick last winter. I had enough Vitamins C, D3, E and zinc daily.

Zinc Picolinate + Quercetin. Quercetin is a zinc ionophore like HCQ/CQ.

500mg Quercetin + 50mg Zinc Picolinate + D3(2000-4000iu) is a good daily intake that may prevent people from getting CV19 in the first place. No one knows, it’s not tested, but all signs indicate it should at least make terrain hostile for this particular virus.

My Doc has given EVERY patient this list
1. 1000 mg Vitamin C
2. 500 mg. Zinc
3. 5000 mg Vitamin D3
4. 500 mg Quercetin
5. 600 mg N-A-C sustain (this gets the zinc into the cells)
My Doc also gave me a script for Hydrocloroquine and Zpack if by some RARE chance I should get a sore throat AND fever start taking the script immediately!!
