Its why lifeguards dont get virus in their noses.
Lol!!
Green tea, eh? What else?
One very common one are the polyphenols in green tea.
That would be EGCG. You should get the good stuff from Japan, MATCHA green tea (the more expensive Japanese stuff, which has 18 times as much EGCG).
Then there is Quercetin. Well known for it’s zinc ionophore properties.

The quercetin is probably easier to deal with.

So are oysters!!
Good luck finding any
Vitamin C, D, Zinc are all cleaned out

And now Im having trouble finding famotidine (Pepcid), my go to acid reducer now that Zantac has been withdrawn from the market. Jeez, these pharmaceutical scientists are finding that all my favorite products may be good at fighting CoVID-19.

Zinc ascorbate, combines zinc and vitamin C
For years I’ve used zicam when I felt a cold coming on. Its zinc. It works great for me. Most of the time it stopped the cold from taking ahold.
Can’t find Zinc anywhere.
25 mg per tab.
going fast...

Vitacost.com
Avoid Amazon, for supplements.
Too many third party sellers.
Go to longtime supplement providers like Vitacost, Puritan’s Pride, Swanson, etc....or, directly to the manufacturer.
Standby for a run of zinc supplements at Amazon.
You can buy the green tea fat burner pills which contains elderberry and blueberry flavonoids. Quercetin will also help get zinc into cells.
Quercetin and EGCG.
I went through a zinc discussion on another thread and ended up getting some zinc liquid on Amazon, supposedly American supplied. Just received it today.
I was surprised the local health food store still had Vit D, which I take daily anyway.
IMO it’s the most important supplement I take.
I’m not taking any Vit C but drinking lemon water each AM and started adding in the lemon zest, too.
Exactly! At a minimum the use of HCQ while deliberately withholding Zinc to achieve a politically driven result is medical malpractice.
Some young quack doctor posted a YouTube video this week lamenting the “death of evidenced based medicine” . BS.
He was willing to withhold known cures from his patients until the perfect set of circumstances and trials were all completely done.
multivitamins are deceptive as regards zinc. The 11mg of zinc oxide is not effective in entering immunologically active cells, is poorly absorbed. My own opinion is that such an inactive zinc inclusion routinely in multivitamins is the greatest sustainer of zinc deficiency in the US. Zinc chelates such a the gluconate, citrate, acetate, picolinate, bisglycinate (the best for absorption)are all effective at enhancing intracellular zinc levels with routine use. Zinc oxide and sulfate are not.
Multivitamins should have one of the above chelates included instead of zinc oxide.
