Synergistic Therapy for COVID-19
First on the list will always be vitamin D3. When I had a clinic in central Washington state, I would routinely check my patients Hydroxy vitamin D level once a year. I can only recall two patients who didn't require supplementation. (As compared to about 50% in Northern California– secondary to latitude). The only way to really determine how much you need, is to have the blood test. Most labs have the minimal level around 30 ng. You actually want it in the 50 – 60 ng level if you want to prevent a visit to the ICU, without getting paid. People with a cancer concern, should have their levels around 100 ng. There has never been complications with people with levels up to 140 ng..
Prescription vitamin D3 comes in only the 50,000 unit dose, (375 units – 10,000 units over-the-counter) and typically given once a week. Most of my patients did well on one dose at 50,000 units a week, with a few requiring a biweekly dosage. I did have one patient on 50,000 units a day who had transferred to my clinic and had been under the care of an endocrinologist. I refilled her prescriptions with caution and with frequent labs. Fortunately her blood levels remained around 50 ng.
I usually take about 10,000 units a day for well over 15 years. My blood levels are usually just above 50 ng. I have always sunburnt very easily and therefore avoid sun exposure. Depending on your sun exposure, I would recommend 5000 – 10,000 units a day, depending on your sun exposure (time of year) if you are unable to have the blood tests.
Anyone on calcium or vitamin D supplementation should take daily vitamin K 2. This vitamin prevents the calcium from collecting in your arteries and soft tissues, and moves it into the bones.
The next important supplement would be zinc. Most people are deficient, therefore considering a higher dose for a few weeks to elevate your levels, then dropping the dosage to a lower daily supplementation. (Consider elevating the dosage again if you are approaching an increased risk of viral/bacterial exposure situation). Zinc works intercellular, and slows down the replication of viruses, bacteria and parasites. Whenever you take zinc, make sure your supplement also contains a small amount of copper, to prevent a copper deficiency, from the zinc. I believe zinc comes in dosages from about 15 – 50 mg.. I assume that the zinc lozenges would give you quicker blood levels.
Now you'll need a "Zinc ionnofor" which transports the zinc into the cell. The video recommends quercetin 600 mg b.i.d.. I just happen to take quercetin in another supplement. But other zinc transporters would be green tea extract, hydroxychloroquine or quinine. For the past year I have been enjoying my "nightly cocktail," of organic Concorde grape juice mixed with "Fever Tree" brand quinine water. (I like their water that comes with "cucumber." If that's not available, I get it with lemon juice.).
Vitamin C 1000 mg QD/b.i.d. is also recommended for prevention. Higher doses are recommended at first sign of inflammation. You take vitamin C according to "bowel tolerance." (Until you get diarrhea.) The kidneys can only handle about 2400 mg of vitamin C at a time, before it starts to back up in the intestine. Bowel tolerance can be put off by taking one or 2 g of vitamin C every one – two hours. A better method would be to take liposomal vitamin C, though more expensive. This is metabolized through the liver, which avoids the problem. I have taken 3 g of liposomal vitamin C, every 30 minutes, for a total of 30 g, without any problems. (note: I only have one kidney secondary to a stage III carcinoma.). They are giving over 100 g of IV vitamin C without problems. And surprisingly, some studies have shown that about 60 – 80 g of liposomal vitamin C, is as good/or better than 100 g of IV vitamin C.. Start taking the vitamin C, as soon as you develop any type of inflammation.
N- acetylcholine (NAC) daily has always been important for strengthening your immune system. I have been taking 600 mg a day for about two decades. The short video above recommends 600 mg NAC b.i.d.
I also have a portable near infrared sauna which works great for both prevention and treatment of many diseases. For every 1°F you raise your core body temperature, you'll increase your white cell production fourfold. (this includes exercise). Saunas and sweat lodges have been successfully used for centuries. Many studies at the Mayo Clinic showed that the infrared saunas reduce hypertension, heart disease, a-fib and tacky arrhythmias.
I'm sure I'm missing many other things. But these are definitely the first things to consider.

Here is a good immune boosting regimen from a PA friend of mine. I am going shopping to check this out.

Wow! Looks fantastic. I’m going to copy it to the Suppressed Covid Information thread; I’m putting gathered information there so I know where to find it for the next updated version of the thread.

Thanks!
*PING* to little jeremiah for your natural healing list?
Thanks, norsky!
Is that info from a med professional by chance?
Thanks, norsky. (bookmarking: Synergistic Therapy for COVID-19)
Norsky - would you like to post that info on the Natural Health thread? I have a ping list someplace and later today I’ll ping it so people will see.
