The only Querticin I could find last year had Bromelain in it, so inadvertently I was taking Bromelian with my Zelenko protocol (C,D,Zinc,querticin(with Bromelain)). I had added NAC to it as well.
Anecdotal, sure, but my COVID symptoms were so mild I thought I was only cold from being outside. Knew I had COVID because I was taking care of a COVID sick person, and had to get tested for work.
I would like to add. COVID was so mild for me that I quit taking those supplements within days of catching covid, figuring I now had natural immunity. I lost my sense of smell and taste completely for over a month, then for almost a year everything bad smelling smelled like the sulfur in eggs. Armpits, using the bathroom, onions, eggs, chicken, soup, litter box… it all smelled identical… like eggs, and soda tasted like burnt rubber.
I ignored it for almost a year, but got so fed up, I went back on the zelenko protocol and within a few days my senses returned to normal.
Thank you so much for posting this comment. I also had a mild case of Covid, but have had a derange sense of smell since since last June. I thought that maybe I was a little bit crazy because everything smelled the same to me also, and it was not good!  Fresh pineapple also deserved a very large floater floater in my eye but I got after hugging and having cheek to cheek contact with a recently vaccinated person.
Antioxidant drugs, such as N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), were effective against all variants both in human lung cells, and in a humanised mouse model. Our study strongly supports the immediate use of available antioxidant drugs, such as NAC, as a general and effective anti-COVID-19 approach.
It bears mentioning there is a small subgroup of people prone to an allergic reaction to NAC. That is why it is advisable to have some antihistamines on hand with first use. I should even test it individually before there is an urgent need of use.
There are also ways to boost glutathione with food and berries/herbs - avocado, spinach, green beans, asparagus, or okra.
Schizandra has long been known as an antioxidant, a bioactive compound that helps protect our cells against damaging molecules such as free radicals and reactive oxygen species. A recent study analyzing 70 herbs for their antioxidant potential showed schizandra to be one of the strongest antioxidants. Traditionally, schisandra has been used to protect the liver and brain from toxic damage. It also improves liver function, particularly the pathways the liver uses to neutralize toxins in the body. Schisandra also appears to activate the enzymes in the liver that make glutathione, one of the body’s most important antioxidants. So not only does schisandra contain antioxidant compounds, but it also causes a cellular response that further increases our antioxidants.
Schisandra has many brain benefits in addition to protecting the brain from damaging free radicals. Schisandra may help reverse the effects of stress and anxiety. It has also been used for depression, irritability and even short-term memory problems. Schisandra was also traditionally employed to help expand awareness of the inner meaning of life. Schisandra is frequently used in herbal combinations for improving stamina, and it can also help some cases of insomnia. These two seemingly different effects are due to the fact that schizandra is an adaptogen, an herb used to modulate adrenal function. These adrenal nourishing herbs can help balance the output of cortisol, the stress hormone that in excess quantities can contribute to insomnia. Adaptogens are also used to help compensate for long-term stress and improve endurance, originally in athletes. These amazing qualities are combined with documented immune stimulating and inflammation fighting properties that make schisandra an incredible herbal ally.
Schisandra (Schisandra chinensis) has been revered for thousands of years as one of 50 “fundamental herbs” in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) because of its adaptogen and tonic effects on the body–effects that prove beneficial for male and female fertility health.
Schisandra is an all-powerful adaptogenic herb that blossoms from the Schisandra chinensis plant. This berry, which is indigenous to China and Russia, has been a part of Chinese medicine for centuries. Its flavor profile is comprised of all five taste sensations: sweet, salty, sour, spicy, and bitter! The best part is, schisandra has far-reaching health benefits that are due to its adaptogenic and anti-inflammatory properties.

I cannot tolerate 600mg at all. I have to build up slowly. The Sulphur in it caused huge gastro problems for me. I am going to try again at a lower dose maybe 300 mg and see if I can tolerate that then ramp it up slowly to 1000 mg (500 x2 a day).
" Covid" and "vaccine" injuries are actually damage caused by oxidative stress. Zinc prevents oxidative stress damage, but there is a catch. It needs an ionophore

Medicinal Herbal Compounds With the MPO-Inhibiting Activity Showing Antioxidant, Anti-Inflammation, and Neuroprotective Effects (A GREAT LIST OF NATURAL ANTIOXIDANTS!)
Zinc deficiency can increase bowel permeability, which may lead to a condition called Leaky Gut Syndrome (LGS).
A leaky gut can increase pyrroles in individuals who suffer from KPU.
Stress damages the intestinal wall and can trigger intestinal inflammation which can lead to LGS.
Stress can cause bad bacteria in the intestines to migrate to the brain via the vagus nerve and cross the blood-brain barrier, triggering aggressive behaviors, depression, anxiety, mood swings and other neurological symptoms.
Poor coping abilities and an inability to handle stress are major symptoms of KPU.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and digestive disorders such as gut dysbiosis and Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) in the intestinal tract may also increase HPL levels and can be major contributors to a leaky gut.
The role of toxins:
Heavy metal and chemical exposures dramatically increase HPL in blood levels.
The enzymes needed to detoxify heavy metals are enzymes that are dependent on the heme synthesis.
Heavy metals will accumulate if heme synthesis is abnormal and if KPU causes the heme synthesis to be abnormal.
What Is Kryptopyrroluria?
Kryptopyrroluria (KPU) is a condition in which zinc and pyridoxine (vitamin B6) are excreted in high amounts into the urine.
Elevated kryptopyrroles (HPL) are found in the urine due to abnormality in the synthesis of heme (hemoglobin) in the body.
Hemoglobin is a protein in the red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body.
Pyrroles are chemicals that are made up of a five-membered aromatic ring and are the byproducts of the hemoglobin synthesis which have no known function, so they are usually just excreted into the urine.
Pyrroles have also been found to have an affinity to zinc and pyridoxine (vitamin B6) and may excrete these nutritional molecules into the urine in high amounts.
The excretion of zinc and pyridoxine (vitamin B6) can result in a severe deficiency of these two important nutrients in the body.
HPL may also bind to biotin, manganese, chromium, magnesium, omega 6s (arachidonic acid) and other important nutrients, excreting them from the body via the kidneys causing further nutrient deficiencies.
This condition can lead to a severe deficiency of nutrients throughout the body and may also result in poorly functioning enzymes.
A deficiency of these nutrients may contribute to symptoms associated with:
Neurological issues including:
Bipolar disorder
Other mood disorders
Autism
ADD/ADHD
Sensory Processing Disorder
PANS/PANDAS
Psychiatric symptoms
Reduced energy production
Mitochondrial dysfunction
Detoxification issues
Thyroid imbalances
Immune disorders
Musculoskeletal issues
Allergies
Food intolerances and sensitivities
Gynecological issues
Gastrointestinal issues
Blood sugar imbalances
Methylation issues
Pyrrole disorder can affect children and teenagers as well as adults.
Kryptopyrroluria has a variety of spellings and names that can be used interchangeably:
Pyrole disease (pyrrole disease)
Pyrole disorder (pyrrole disorder and pyrolle disorder)
Kryptopyrroles
Pyrroles or hydroxyhemophrrolin-2-one (HPL)
Kryptopyroluria (Kryptopyrroluria) (KPU)
Mauve factor
Hemopyrrollactamuria (HPU)
Hemepyrole (hemepyrrole, hemopyrrole, hemopyrole)
Negative effects of high pyrroles (HPL)
High pyrrole levels can:
Damage nerve cells
Decrease hemoglobin levels
Increase free radical damage because three major antioxidants (glutathione, catalase and superoxide dismutase) require zinc or vitamin B6 in their production process.
Reduce liver detoxification
Cause stress which increases HPL levels
Cause neuronal (nerve) cell death due to low levels of hemoglobin
Potentially cause cell mitochondrial death
Reduce hemoglobin levels due to deficiencies of vitamins B6, B7 (biotin) and zinc, which are required for hemoglobin production. Low levels of hemoglobin can result in an increased production of nitric oxide, a toxic free radical that can cause serious damage to brain tissue. This may play a role in schizophrenia, autism and Down syndrome.
Common Conditions and Disorders Associated with Kryptopyrroluria
So, the toxins block zinc uptake and then the cascade of damage begins.... It's a huge topic, but knowing the mechanisms is important, and the basics of prevention
“Everybody now has some level of chronic illness. It is getting worse every year. Based on my experience, the main cause of chronic illness is cardiovascular disease,” Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt reveals. “Although that decreased over the last few years because people learned that smoking is bad.”
He adds, “Then it was taken over by cancer. But now both cardiovascular disease and cancer have been taken over by neurological disease. And the death rate is still rising due to the presence of heavy metals in the brain.”
Harmful Heavy Metals
Now, what then is the most dangerous heavy metal? According to Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, the main danger comes from aluminum. What is more alarming is the fact that aluminum is in most vaccines, food, and drinking water. Apparently, it is also in the air! That's why doing a heavy metals detox is essential.
“Other things like glyphosate in our food chain is also something to watch out for. It is the primary herbicide used in the United States. And the U.S. by far has the highest use of glyphosate,” warns Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt.
Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt explains that glyphosate is a chelating agent. It binds all the trace minerals in the food. However, if it binds to aluminum, it eventually transports into the bloodstream and goes straight to the brain.
Why is it a cause for alarm? Well, for one thing, Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt says it decreases the minerals that we need. And it puts toxic elements into the spaces where the good minerals should be. Furthermore, Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt revealed that aluminum apparently also is the primary cause of Alzheimer's disease.
“In the U.S., when you eat organic food, it has 80% of the same amount of glyphosate as commercially grown food. So no matter how good you try to eat, you can't protect yourself unless you know what to do,” said Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt. “Eating organic food is 20% less toxic, and it's still a good number. But ideally, you want 90% clean food.”
Aluminum, mercury, graphene, glyphosate, titanium.... 5G - all used for a purpose.
He had been researching this for many years, but now it all made sense. I had come to pretty much the same conclusions as him, except that I'm not a proponent of viruses.
I realized that the cause of most diseases is oxidative stress.
Thanks for sharing your experise, both wmc and outraged. Are there areas or countries which, generally speaking, have less of a glyphosate/pollution problem?
For those still suffering loss of taste and smell, Dr. Brian Ardis discovered that Nicotine restores these fairly quickly. He suggested using the gum that's for quitting smoking. He has a lot of recent info about the quackzine.
This showed up:, recent interview with Dr. Ardis: Stew Peters Presents: COVENOM-19 Series Vol. 1 (1-hr., 10-min. video): https://rumble.com/v26g9jm-stew-peters-presents-covenom-series-vol.-1.html “They Can’t Hide This Any Longer… Some COVID-19 Patients Have Deadly Venom In Them. // 36 different shellfish toxins and snake venom are showing up in COVID-19 patients… // How did this end up in their blood, feces, or urine? // Some experts believe this so-called “respiratory” disease is actually an envenomation from the vaccine.”
That is important info, thank you for sharing. I get tired of taking the supplements sometimes, but do notice differences when I stop. Glad you're well.
Supplements listed above remain the same, except dosage changes.
Glutathione, 2000 mg, 2 to 3 times per day
NAC, 1200 mg twice a day
Vitamin C, 2000 mg 3 times a day
Physician-prescribed ivermectin 0.2 mg/kg once a day for 10-14 days (Must be physician prescribed)
Dr. Horowitz’s comment on how the supplements work to treat and potentially prevent COVID
“Although anecdotal, I have heard from patients who were on NAC and glutathione when they were exposed to COVID-19, that they did not get sick or test positive for the virus, when others around them did. This can potentially be explained by the antiviral effects of NAC and glutathione, which have been published in the peer-reviewed medical literature, years before COVID was on the scene.
Supplements like NAC, alpha lipoic acid and glutathione also have anti-inflammatory effects. The way the viral machinery turns on is with oxidative stress, driving inflammation, and these supplements lower inflammation, by blocking a switch inside the nucleus called NF Kappa B. I have used this approach for over two decades, lowering cytokines and inflammation in Lyme disease patients.
Some of the same cytokines seen in COVID-19 are exactly the same cytokines seen in Lyme patients, especially during Herxheimer reactions, which is how I knew to use this approach, which has been effective. I also used to treat Babesia patients with shortness of breath with IV glutathione and would see similar results, i.e., improvement of shortness of breath.
So, all of my years of treating tick-borne diseases have given me a perspective that other doctors or researchers may not have regarding the efficacy of this approach. I would suggest however, until a randomized, controlled trial is done, that patients bring my articles to their doctor and speak to them about taking NAC, alpha lipoic acid and glutathione. I believe it will help protect them against the inflammatory effects of the virus.”
Dr. Horowitz’s comment on the use of hydroxychloroquine
“The hydroxychoroquine debate is a typical one in medicine. First a treatment is said to work, then it’s examined in greater detail in multiple studies, where there are conflicting results. Some older studies showed benefit. Others did not. One study resulted in a clinical benefit, if the patient was also taking zinc. Other studies showed no benefit and potential side effects (nausea, arrhythmias).
Didier Raoult in France, who is the French researcher who initiated the trial of HCQ/macrolide trials, still believes that the regimen is effective. I’m waiting to see how it all plays out, especially because the Lancet had to retract negative comments about the combo. In the meantime, in part to avoid the debate, and because there were some good studies showing the efficacy of ivermectin for COVID-19 (a drug I had a lot of experience using), I decided to use it for the treatment of COVID-19 along with nutritional support like NAC, ALA glutathione, and zinc.
We have seen success using ivermectin, where patients have reported improvements within hours of use. An in vitro study also showed efficacy of ivermectin in killing the virus in culture, with two clinical trials (one involved patients on respirators) showing some benefit. We still need better trials, but the basic science is there supporting its use, and as I said, I have seen patients respond positively within hours of taking it.”
Start lighty with fresh pineapple. To much all at once can cause you to have to find a bathroom pretty quick 12 hrs later. I secretely experimented on my family after dining out at Outback Steakhouse years ago. Afterwards I bought, prepared, and graciously shared fresh pineapple with my whole family (I'm a scientist btw). We were all staying in motel rooms. Low and behold, the very next morning, like clock work, we all had to use the bathrooms at about the same time. The plummer even had to be called to one room, lol, and kind of naughty of me, but oh well at least I found out it works great. (I also bought 10 bottles of NAC in April of 2020, just in case, and have made up numerous labeled pill pouches, with all the treatment supplements, for all my loved ones, for the past 2 years. I still have fresh frozen pineapple and wild grapes in my freezers from 3 years ago, lol).
Maybe you would know the answer, or you could do some research on this.
But I’m wondering, with all these heart issues going on, if magnesium could be a benefit to combating some of these vaccine side effects, as I do know a lot of heartbeat issues can be traced back to lack of magnesium. Sleep issues as well, which also affects the heart.
We already use pineapple juice for my daughter’s asthmatic cough and we also use NAC. She recently has been experimenting and the pineapple juice stops her coughing faster than prescription cough syrup. Also, recently I choked on my drink and couldn’t get rid of the irritant and kept coughing. My daughter yelled out, “pineapple juice” so I tried it. The coughing stopped instantly. It’s amazing stuff. Also interesting, in my small town in Ontario, 2 grocery stores have stopped carrying the pressed pineapple juice in the carton, so it’s getting harder to find.
Enzyme activity is killed if any heat is applied... so anything canned/bottled will not work. That's why you can't use fresh pineapple to make jello or the jello won't set up.
Given the poor performance and advertising hype for the system, maybe it's not such a good thing to call it a Patriot Missile System?
Also, a concentration of 100 g/ml? Imagine how many pineapple cores a person needs to eat to achieve that! Tracking backwards to the cited study, it appears that should have been "100 μg/ml." (See: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.09.07.286906v2; "The combination of Bromelain and Acetylcysteine (BromAc) synergistically inactivates SARS-CoV-2," Akhter et al.)
Again also, I note they mention in that cited study: "Clinical testing through nasal administration in patients with early SARS-CoV-2 infection is imminent." Interesting, and a search of just Akhter's recent publications (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=Akhter+J%5Bau%5D&sort=date&size=20) shows studies of various ways BromAc (registered trademark goes here) works on cancers or tumor cells.
As I understand, the fda "removal" of NAC coincided with the publication of the first research showing its usefulness in the treatment of covid-19. Using the bogus? "reason" that it was first used as a prescription drug, hence under fda authority, and to return it to, profit for pharma, prescription status.
Some truth? or a cover in "their" campaign kill all real covid prevention and treatment options possible, to promote a "vaccine" only covid approach, to force, step by step, regulatory approval of Mrna as an approved platform technology without need for any more human testing "cover". Which " they" accomplished with the bivalent vaccines. BAMN! by any means necessary
BAMN! by any means necessary to have "their" fast cheap dirty Mrna platform approved and now being set with across the world manufacturing capability to "save us all" from the civilization killing created virus to come and of course MAKE BIG DOLLARS.
Covid kicked my tail. It was annoying, but mild, until day 8. Out-of-the-blue, pneumonia! I was admitted for 5 days. For the first 4 days, I craved and consumed pineapple. I never eat pineapple! I rarely eat fruit, period. I don’t like sweet stuff.
It always tickles me that our bodies have an innate understanding of what to do/eat. Like others, I supplement with both bromelain and NAC. Its so encouraging to find out that there is evidence to continue!
I've been taking quercitin, bromelain nac, c, d3 k2c and others for about 2 years now. Caught covid in Jan 22, lost smell and taste for a week and had a pink eye, also took ivermectin and zinc on top of the protocol. Very mild case.
An NAC researcher at Baylor advised to take NAC with a lot of water… If someone fails to do that, I wonder what could be the result? Kidney damage?? 😬🤔 I agree that NAC is proving VERY effective when taken at first signs of respiratory viruses … increasing glutathione levels may also have multiple benefits, so it is one tool in my toolkit… As a related side note, in one naturopath’s online presentation, she responded to my question in the chat, saying that she finds NAC on the “strong” side (I wonder why?) and she prefers something a bit weaker (I don’t remember exactly what she suggested, but maybe that was moreso a suggested option for those wanting a daily profilaxis that also increases glutathione?) Did I read somewhere that Milk Thistle might also increase glutathione? 🤔 . I know that it is a recommended supplement in multiple protocols…
I’ll try to pick up and incorporate pineapple more regularly—thanks for the tips, Walter!!
There may be the occasional allergic reaction to NAC in specific individuals, so it should be tested beforehand, with antihistamines at the ready. A naturopath worth her salt would likely be aware. https://www.drugs.com/sfx/nac-side-effects.html
I too heard it shouldn't be taking for long periods though, and I'm just reading about taking it with lots of water! Oops
I've been given NAC 15 yrs ago by a naturopathic doctor and never been warned of either.. it loosens phlegm too apparently and been given to folks with bronchitis but helps with inflammation etc
I've stopped it this week as taking since year during Covid and will only restart if get it again
All these "natural" supplements we are self medicating with can do who knows what else!
Few times a week maybe but I'm stopping this daily pill popping and eating healthy n staying active! Careful folks , I see natural medecine as also another big busine$$! You need this, and you need that, maybe if you are suffering some ailments but for generally healthy folk don't think all that needed either on daily basis anyway
Wow - seems like great news. I remember hearing about both of these a while back, but not together. Thanks so much for putting this out there and for the lessons on each NAC and bromelain! Have a great weekend!
Oh so the part we throw out! Can that be juiced? Or better to take supplements .. do you take Nac every day for years? I've heard good to take a break from it?
As promising as this sounds, I would take it with a grain of salt until I know exactly who is behind the company that put this study together, Mucpharm. I have a lot of reservations about using a lot of recommended supplements. I think it's always best to opt for fresh organic foods. The only thing I think it is wise to get from a bottle is nicotinic acid.
My concern with NAC in particular is that a lot of folks have messed with their bodies and they may be throwing gasoline on a fire as far as promoting tumor growth. I'm really on the fence with this one, and as I've done with IVM, I've decided it's best not to put it in my body.
Interesting..I have stopped it now as read somewhere best to take a break from time to time. I too feel all these "natural" supplements are scary too.. who knows what they might be doing, interacting with. It's another busine$$ too..
I think I'll keep Vit D , magnesium , fish oil and eat healthy n active and keep other vitamins maybe few times week until more Covid info out, and daily if get Covid again..I wonder how all these " natural" drugs are doing to Kidney n liver..etc.. especially as most of us are self medicating !
This in my opinion is the crime of modern medicine. WE have to self medicate because the doctors are robots that go by 'cookbooks' rather than practice empirical individual hands on medicine. Hence the whole IVM, HCQ, Fenbendazole. (And yes in combo with ketogenic diet, and other supplements like bio available curcumin these old line safe drugs DO work on cancers. But oh, no we couldn't use this because? Cancer is a GIANT money maker for drug pushers... if it was eliminated a) people would live longer (a lot of them would), b) people would be healthier and happier (can't have that), c) there's be NO MONEY for the pharmas = and that will NEVER be allowed by the system..

This condition can lead to a severe deficiency of nutrients throughout the body and may also result in poorly functioning enzymes.
A deficiency of these nutrients may contribute to symptoms associated with:
Neurological issues including:
Bipolar disorder
Other mood disorders
Autism
ADD/ADHD
Sensory Processing Disorder
PANS/PANDAS
Psychiatric symptoms
Reduced energy production
Mitochondrial dysfunction
Detoxification issues
Thyroid imbalances
Immune disorders
Musculoskeletal issues
Allergies
Food intolerances and sensitivities
Gynecological issues
Gastrointestinal issues
Blood sugar imbalances
Methylation issues
Pyrrole disorder can affect children and teenagers as well as adults.
Kryptopyrroluria has a variety of spellings and names that can be used interchangeably:
Pyrole disease (pyrrole disease)
Pyrole disorder (pyrrole disorder and pyrolle disorder)
Kryptopyrroles
Pyrroles or hydroxyhemophrrolin-2-one (HPL)
Kryptopyroluria (Kryptopyrroluria) (KPU)
Mauve factor
Hemopyrrollactamuria (HPU)
Hemepyrole (hemepyrrole, hemopyrrole, hemopyrole)
Negative effects of high pyrroles (HPL)
High pyrrole levels can:
Damage nerve cells
Decrease hemoglobin levels
Increase free radical damage because three major antioxidants (glutathione, catalase and superoxide dismutase) require zinc or vitamin B6 in their production process.
Reduce liver detoxification
Cause stress which increases HPL levels
Cause neuronal (nerve) cell death due to low levels of hemoglobin
Potentially cause cell mitochondrial death
Reduce hemoglobin levels due to deficiencies of vitamins B6, B7 (biotin) and zinc, which are required for hemoglobin production. Low levels of hemoglobin can result in an increased production of nitric oxide, a toxic free radical that can cause serious damage to brain tissue. This may play a role in schizophrenia, autism and Down syndrome.

So, the toxins block zinc uptake and then the cascade of damage begins.... It's a huge topic, but knowing the mechanisms is important, and the basics of prevention
https://outraged.substack.com/p/big-pharmas-biggest-secret
Yes. Many medications and toxins can deplete zinc.
Also block its uptake (including environmental toxicity):

“Everybody now has some level of chronic illness. It is getting worse every year. Based on my experience, the main cause of chronic illness is cardiovascular disease,” Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt reveals. “Although that decreased over the last few years because people learned that smoking is bad.”
He adds, “Then it was taken over by cancer. But now both cardiovascular disease and cancer have been taken over by neurological disease. And the death rate is still rising due to the presence of heavy metals in the brain.”
Harmful Heavy Metals
Now, what then is the most dangerous heavy metal? According to Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, the main danger comes from aluminum. What is more alarming is the fact that aluminum is in most vaccines, food, and drinking water. Apparently, it is also in the air! That's why doing a heavy metals detox is essential.
“Other things like glyphosate in our food chain is also something to watch out for. It is the primary herbicide used in the United States. And the U.S. by far has the highest use of glyphosate,” warns Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt.
Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt explains that glyphosate is a chelating agent. It binds all the trace minerals in the food. However, if it binds to aluminum, it eventually transports into the bloodstream and goes straight to the brain.
Why is it a cause for alarm? Well, for one thing, Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt says it decreases the minerals that we need. And it puts toxic elements into the spaces where the good minerals should be. Furthermore, Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt revealed that aluminum apparently also is the primary cause of Alzheimer's disease.
“In the U.S., when you eat organic food, it has 80% of the same amount of glyphosate as commercially grown food. So no matter how good you try to eat, you can't protect yourself unless you know what to do,” said Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt. “Eating organic food is 20% less toxic, and it's still a good number. But ideally, you want 90% clean food.”
Aluminum, mercury, graphene, glyphosate, titanium.... 5G - all used for a purpose.
Mercola did a great interview with him recently on his podcast.
He had been researching this for many years, but now it all made sense. I had come to pretty much the same conclusions as him, except that I'm not a proponent of viruses.
I realized that the cause of most diseases is oxidative stress.
Thanks for sharing your experise, both wmc and outraged. Are there areas or countries which, generally speaking, have less of a glyphosate/pollution problem?
For those still suffering loss of taste and smell, Dr. Brian Ardis discovered that Nicotine restores these fairly quickly. He suggested using the gum that's for quitting smoking. He has a lot of recent info about the quackzine.
Nicotine gum didn’t work for me, not at all.
Sorry to hear that. Was there anything that did help?
I can’t pin down one thing, because I just shotgun blasted everything “healthy” so here goes
NAC
Zelenko protocol
Beet powder
Pomegranate powder
Turmeric in green tea
Teaspoon of cayenne pepper a day
Upped berry consumption via homemade smoothies
Melatonin
Aspirin
Hope that helps…
Super-nutrients! Glad you got improvements.
This showed up:, recent interview with Dr. Ardis: Stew Peters Presents: COVENOM-19 Series Vol. 1 (1-hr., 10-min. video): https://rumble.com/v26g9jm-stew-peters-presents-covenom-series-vol.-1.html “They Can’t Hide This Any Longer… Some COVID-19 Patients Have Deadly Venom In Them. // 36 different shellfish toxins and snake venom are showing up in COVID-19 patients… // How did this end up in their blood, feces, or urine? // Some experts believe this so-called “respiratory” disease is actually an envenomation from the vaccine.”
Stew Peters is a disinformation agent. It's the only explanation for the crap he puts out and how he appeared from nowhere, post vaccine release
That is important info, thank you for sharing. I get tired of taking the supplements sometimes, but do notice differences when I stop. Glad you're well.
Zelenko protocol , can u send me the link to that detailed protocol
Much appreciated
And:

Horowitz’s regimen for active infection
Supplements listed above remain the same, except dosage changes.
Glutathione, 2000 mg, 2 to 3 times per day
NAC, 1200 mg twice a day
Vitamin C, 2000 mg 3 times a day
Physician-prescribed ivermectin 0.2 mg/kg once a day for 10-14 days (Must be physician prescribed)
Dr. Horowitz’s comment on how the supplements work to treat and potentially prevent COVID
“Although anecdotal, I have heard from patients who were on NAC and glutathione when they were exposed to COVID-19, that they did not get sick or test positive for the virus, when others around them did. This can potentially be explained by the antiviral effects of NAC and glutathione, which have been published in the peer-reviewed medical literature, years before COVID was on the scene.
Supplements like NAC, alpha lipoic acid and glutathione also have anti-inflammatory effects. The way the viral machinery turns on is with oxidative stress, driving inflammation, and these supplements lower inflammation, by blocking a switch inside the nucleus called NF Kappa B. I have used this approach for over two decades, lowering cytokines and inflammation in Lyme disease patients.
Some of the same cytokines seen in COVID-19 are exactly the same cytokines seen in Lyme patients, especially during Herxheimer reactions, which is how I knew to use this approach, which has been effective. I also used to treat Babesia patients with shortness of breath with IV glutathione and would see similar results, i.e., improvement of shortness of breath.
So, all of my years of treating tick-borne diseases have given me a perspective that other doctors or researchers may not have regarding the efficacy of this approach. I would suggest however, until a randomized, controlled trial is done, that patients bring my articles to their doctor and speak to them about taking NAC, alpha lipoic acid and glutathione. I believe it will help protect them against the inflammatory effects of the virus.”
Dr. Horowitz’s comment on the use of hydroxychloroquine
“The hydroxychoroquine debate is a typical one in medicine. First a treatment is said to work, then it’s examined in greater detail in multiple studies, where there are conflicting results. Some older studies showed benefit. Others did not. One study resulted in a clinical benefit, if the patient was also taking zinc. Other studies showed no benefit and potential side effects (nausea, arrhythmias).
Didier Raoult in France, who is the French researcher who initiated the trial of HCQ/macrolide trials, still believes that the regimen is effective. I’m waiting to see how it all plays out, especially because the Lancet had to retract negative comments about the combo. In the meantime, in part to avoid the debate, and because there were some good studies showing the efficacy of ivermectin for COVID-19 (a drug I had a lot of experience using), I decided to use it for the treatment of COVID-19 along with nutritional support like NAC, ALA glutathione, and zinc.
We have seen success using ivermectin, where patients have reported improvements within hours of use. An in vitro study also showed efficacy of ivermectin in killing the virus in culture, with two clinical trials (one involved patients on respirators) showing some benefit. We still need better trials, but the basic science is there supporting its use, and as I said, I have seen patients respond positively within hours of taking it.”

Thank you Walter for your persistence, diligence and compassion for others.
Amen!
I’ve been calling this the kitchen sink approach to bioweapon defense for nearly 3 years, and it’s absolutely necessary.
If we’d thrown the kitchen sink at covid in the first place it would have been far better than the experimental transfections!
Start lighty with fresh pineapple. To much all at once can cause you to have to find a bathroom pretty quick 12 hrs later. I secretely experimented on my family after dining out at Outback Steakhouse years ago. Afterwards I bought, prepared, and graciously shared fresh pineapple with my whole family (I'm a scientist btw). We were all staying in motel rooms. Low and behold, the very next morning, like clock work, we all had to use the bathrooms at about the same time. The plummer even had to be called to one room, lol, and kind of naughty of me, but oh well at least I found out it works great. (I also bought 10 bottles of NAC in April of 2020, just in case, and have made up numerous labeled pill pouches, with all the treatment supplements, for all my loved ones, for the past 2 years. I still have fresh frozen pineapple and wild grapes in my freezers from 3 years ago, lol).
Maybe you would know the answer, or you could do some research on this.
But I’m wondering, with all these heart issues going on, if magnesium could be a benefit to combating some of these vaccine side effects, as I do know a lot of heartbeat issues can be traced back to lack of magnesium. Sleep issues as well, which also affects the heart.
Magnesium is good to take in general as most are deficient in our generation with soil
N processed food etc ..so can't hurt..
We already use pineapple juice for my daughter’s asthmatic cough and we also use NAC. She recently has been experimenting and the pineapple juice stops her coughing faster than prescription cough syrup. Also, recently I choked on my drink and couldn’t get rid of the irritant and kept coughing. My daughter yelled out, “pineapple juice” so I tried it. The coughing stopped instantly. It’s amazing stuff. Also interesting, in my small town in Ontario, 2 grocery stores have stopped carrying the pressed pineapple juice in the carton, so it’s getting harder to find.
Enzyme activity is killed if any heat is applied... so anything canned/bottled will not work. That's why you can't use fresh pineapple to make jello or the jello won't set up.
Can still get the canned stuff.
Hello fellow ontarian! Which small town? I'm near our wonderful PM👌
Given the poor performance and advertising hype for the system, maybe it's not such a good thing to call it a Patriot Missile System?
Also, a concentration of 100 g/ml? Imagine how many pineapple cores a person needs to eat to achieve that! Tracking backwards to the cited study, it appears that should have been "100 μg/ml." (See: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.09.07.286906v2; "The combination of Bromelain and Acetylcysteine (BromAc) synergistically inactivates SARS-CoV-2," Akhter et al.)
Again also, I note they mention in that cited study: "Clinical testing through nasal administration in patients with early SARS-CoV-2 infection is imminent." Interesting, and a search of just Akhter's recent publications (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=Akhter+J%5Bau%5D&sort=date&size=20) shows studies of various ways BromAc (registered trademark goes here) works on cancers or tumor cells.
And YET another alternative treatment
Bromelain is found in good foods like Kefir, Sauerkraut, Avocados, Papaya, Banana, Honey and a LOT in pineapple
and of course ALL these foods are digestive enzymes and good for your gut.
I thought early on that this really is a gut (good bacteria) issue
Maybe this is why the want to take Acetylcysteine (NAC) off the shelves??
As I understand, the fda "removal" of NAC coincided with the publication of the first research showing its usefulness in the treatment of covid-19. Using the bogus? "reason" that it was first used as a prescription drug, hence under fda authority, and to return it to, profit for pharma, prescription status.
Some truth? or a cover in "their" campaign kill all real covid prevention and treatment options possible, to promote a "vaccine" only covid approach, to force, step by step, regulatory approval of Mrna as an approved platform technology without need for any more human testing "cover". Which " they" accomplished with the bivalent vaccines. BAMN! by any means necessary
BAMN! by any means necessary to have "their" fast cheap dirty Mrna platform approved and now being set with across the world manufacturing capability to "save us all" from the civilization killing created virus to come and of course MAKE BIG DOLLARS.
BAMN! - KILL PREVENTION - KILL TREATMENT - KILL MILLIONS - BAMN!
FEW DIE FROM COVID - MANY TORTURED AND MURDERED - BY FAILURE TO TREAT
Thank you, Walter. For all you do.
Huge thanks for the hope, Walter! Enjoy your well-earned weekend.
Covid kicked my tail. It was annoying, but mild, until day 8. Out-of-the-blue, pneumonia! I was admitted for 5 days. For the first 4 days, I craved and consumed pineapple. I never eat pineapple! I rarely eat fruit, period. I don’t like sweet stuff.
It always tickles me that our bodies have an innate understanding of what to do/eat. Like others, I supplement with both bromelain and NAC. Its so encouraging to find out that there is evidence to continue!
You are such a blessing, Walter!
Careful with NAC, I've heard shouldn't be taken for long periods of time.
I've been taking quercitin, bromelain nac, c, d3 k2c and others for about 2 years now. Caught covid in Jan 22, lost smell and taste for a week and had a pink eye, also took ivermectin and zinc on top of the protocol. Very mild case.
An NAC researcher at Baylor advised to take NAC with a lot of water… If someone fails to do that, I wonder what could be the result? Kidney damage?? 😬🤔 I agree that NAC is proving VERY effective when taken at first signs of respiratory viruses … increasing glutathione levels may also have multiple benefits, so it is one tool in my toolkit… As a related side note, in one naturopath’s online presentation, she responded to my question in the chat, saying that she finds NAC on the “strong” side (I wonder why?) and she prefers something a bit weaker (I don’t remember exactly what she suggested, but maybe that was moreso a suggested option for those wanting a daily profilaxis that also increases glutathione?) Did I read somewhere that Milk Thistle might also increase glutathione? 🤔 . I know that it is a recommended supplement in multiple protocols…
I’ll try to pick up and incorporate pineapple more regularly—thanks for the tips, Walter!!
Re. naturopath + strong side
There may be the occasional allergic reaction to NAC in specific individuals, so it should be tested beforehand, with antihistamines at the ready. A naturopath worth her salt would likely be aware. https://www.drugs.com/sfx/nac-side-effects.html
I too heard it shouldn't be taking for long periods though, and I'm just reading about taking it with lots of water! Oops
I've been given NAC 15 yrs ago by a naturopathic doctor and never been warned of either.. it loosens phlegm too apparently and been given to folks with bronchitis but helps with inflammation etc
I've stopped it this week as taking since year during Covid and will only restart if get it again
All these "natural" supplements we are self medicating with can do who knows what else!
Few times a week maybe but I'm stopping this daily pill popping and eating healthy n staying active! Careful folks , I see natural medecine as also another big busine$$! You need this, and you need that, maybe if you are suffering some ailments but for generally healthy folk don't think all that needed either on daily basis anyway
Wow - seems like great news. I remember hearing about both of these a while back, but not together. Thanks so much for putting this out there and for the lessons on each NAC and bromelain! Have a great weekend!
We were advocating bromelain / NAC / quercetin not long after wuhan started. Amongst many other things.
Btw, bromelain is primarily found in the core of the pineapple, not the flesh.
Oh so the part we throw out! Can that be juiced? Or better to take supplements .. do you take Nac every day for years? I've heard good to take a break from it?
As promising as this sounds, I would take it with a grain of salt until I know exactly who is behind the company that put this study together, Mucpharm. I have a lot of reservations about using a lot of recommended supplements. I think it's always best to opt for fresh organic foods. The only thing I think it is wise to get from a bottle is nicotinic acid.
Curiously, it gets no attention on social media. However a little searching reveals so many benefits. Have a look at this: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6412771/
My concern with NAC in particular is that a lot of folks have messed with their bodies and they may be throwing gasoline on a fire as far as promoting tumor growth. I'm really on the fence with this one, and as I've done with IVM, I've decided it's best not to put it in my body.
I think i remember seeing a warning regarding possible lung cancer stimulation … in a consumer lab report summary on NAC
Interesting..I have stopped it now as read somewhere best to take a break from time to time. I too feel all these "natural" supplements are scary too.. who knows what they might be doing, interacting with. It's another busine$$ too..
I think I'll keep Vit D , magnesium , fish oil and eat healthy n active and keep other vitamins maybe few times week until more Covid info out, and daily if get Covid again..I wonder how all these " natural" drugs are doing to Kidney n liver..etc.. especially as most of us are self medicating !
This in my opinion is the crime of modern medicine. WE have to self medicate because the doctors are robots that go by 'cookbooks' rather than practice empirical individual hands on medicine. Hence the whole IVM, HCQ, Fenbendazole. (And yes in combo with ketogenic diet, and other supplements like bio available curcumin these old line safe drugs DO work on cancers. But oh, no we couldn't use this because? Cancer is a GIANT money maker for drug pushers... if it was eliminated a) people would live longer (a lot of them would), b) people would be healthier and happier (can't have that), c) there's be NO MONEY for the pharmas = and that will NEVER be allowed by the system..
