RATIONALE FOR MAINTAINING PEAK IMMUNITY
Methods and Supplements that may (potentially) Limit Exposure and Possibly Reduce Severity of Virus infections (flu, covid, etc)
On a priority 1-10 scale: This article is now a 10.
Why is this topic important today?
Answer: Everyone could benefit from utilizing this information. Even vaccinated people since the reality is the Covid-19 vaccines do not prevent one from getting the virus, they just attack the virus after it enters into the body and limits time for excessive replicative growth of virus and more severe symptoms. These nutritional aspects would complement and add further support.
Question: How might vitamins and other supplements impact viral diseases?
Here is information sheet (which says for health professionals, but everyone should read) from the NIH about possible actions for vitamins on viral loads such as Covid-19 <VERY IMPORTANT MUST READ from Government, in fact this is the best ever Government analysis for vitamins on disease. Plus, the latest from outside the USA on vitamin actions against COVID-19 here.
WHY DID THE CDC NOT MAKE A GREATER EFFORT TO PROMOTE THIS VITAL INFORMATION OTHER THAN ON THEIR WEBSITE TO INCREASE AWARENESS FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC TO HELP SURVIVE COVID-19?
Next is presented some of the Science that supports what the NIH says about vitamins and other nutrients on Sars-Cov-2 virus from their website.
NOTE: This next sentence is included for almost if not all of the nutrients mentioned:"Currently, data are insufficient to support a recommendation for or against the use of (nutrient or vitamin) supplementation to prevent or treat COVID-19." This is due to the fact that covid-19 is a rather new disease and studies take time to complete, but past studies against similar viruses do provide valuable insights. Notice the mention of ongoing studies. Not all the nutrients mentioned should be used for Scars-Cov-2. They are mentioned by the CDC since they have general immunity actions, but are more geared for bacterial infections or common cold viruses. Some of the nutrients stimulate immune actions from anti-oxidants that can be counter-productive for immune generated free radical virus destroyers.
The immune system is an important part of prevention or mitigation of viral infections. Some vitamin and herbal supplements have functions in building up immune system. ref ref ref ref Diet and lifestyle play a major role. The concept in play here is to build up a peak activity level of immune cell potential to prevent or reduce any viral loads attacking the body. Remember, a ratio between the different immune blood cells needs to be respected. Doctors measure this ratio to see how the immune system is operating. It is not higher numbers that is the goal, but rather the quick response and action potential of immune cells that is important. Here is the typical establishment view that vitamins might help according to how they function, but there is little if any scientific proof: article from Harvard Medical
IT IS VITAL TO SLOWLY BUILD UP LEVELS OF EFFECTIVE NUTRIENTS as starting to take nutrients at first sign of disease is often too late. These nutrients help to prevent and slow virus penetration and attachment before viral replication starts in cells. Here are some common sense proactive tips. ref First thing is to protect against exposure and begin building up the immune system. A peak immune system does not mean higher numbers, but more of a readiness to take action. ref Once an outbreak occurs in your area, put in place the following:
Of INTEREST: It is reported that one of the symptoms associated with COVID-19 disease is a loss of taste and small. These are classic signs of a zinc deficiency or zinc balance disruption. article SARS-CoV-2 viruses use zinc as part of their structure. ref Over time, the genetic code of many viruses have adapted to manipulate zinc balance so more is available for virus growth. article
Everything about viral attachments and more> ref
**Inflammation is one of the processes the immune system uses for healing. Unfortunately, inflammation can also be a factor in overwhelming body homeostasis leading to compromised immune states. ref ref ref
Be sure to notice that selenium is needed in a very narrow range of amounts in the last reference for proper immune system function. Both not enough or too much are negative for immune controls. It depends on the soil level of selenium in each area.
NOTE: There are many different kinds of viruses and they do not all process the same body pathways making it difficult to recommend one protocol for all types. The new SARS CoV-2 virus uses zinc as it's preferred metal ion to anchor the protein cap over the RNA coding material, the blueprint to make new viruses. Thus binding up zinc in cells helps slow down viral production. refThe bound form of zinc also helps stop the viruses, too.
With the current coronavirus crisis, here is a simple explanation about the strategy on lungs for proper immune functioning. ref
FYI:The above actions and nutrients will not prevent this disease if you are exposed to it. The goal or design is to give the body a chance to hopefully reduce the degree or severity of symptoms and allow a better fighting chance for survival. It is not necessary or advised to take all of these nutrients at same time. Many have similar functions. A rotational plan can pay dividends since body setpoints could be avoided. Setpoints may be reached if a nutrient is taken for too long of a time and the desired body reaction is either muted or changed as adaptations develop. At first a feather tickles, then it soon becomes an irritant, or how someone at sea level travels to high mountain elevations and lacks enough oxygen until the body acclimates over a period of time.
If you only want to do one thing to increase your odds of surviving Covid-19, Take Zinc at about 25 mg and Quercetin at about 500 mg. Quercetin acts as a zinc ionophore to get zinc into cells in the proper format so it can fight against virus duplication. Zinc also has anti-viral immune activity in the blood stream. Look at the date of this admission of hospital use. ref
Here is the what this reference found: "Conclusion. This study provides the first in vivo evidence that zinc sulphate may play a role in therapeutic management for COVID-19." (with a zinc ionophore) Even though the inorganic zinc sulphate is effective, a higher quality zinc form as zinc citrate, zinc gluconate, or zinc glycinate or the zinc amino acid chelate, or OptiZinc would be preferred.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: This new Covid-19 finding from Loma Linda Medical changes some directions. Microvessel blood clots are showing up in the small blood vessels around many different organs. Which organ exhibits the greatest damage determines what disease name is added in with Covid-19. Clots and viral infections overwhelm body defences. ref

Questions for future?
Do spike proteins built from vaccines migrate away from muscle injection site?
If so, (this is so) could they participate in microvessel damage?
Would this explain why a few young men exhibited myocarditis (inflammation of heart muscle) or pericarditis (inflammation around heart) right after vaccination? ref
Or is this just an allergic reaction to the vaccine?
Covid-19 disease often exhibits blood clots and / or cardiovascular damage. Is this damage a factor of spike proteins as the Salk Institute found?
Spike Proteins generated from vaccine may last in body for up to three weeks, a typical length of time for similar proteins. Clearance depends upon body conditions. One Scientist Doctor says spike proteins from vaccines do not get out of the cell they are built in except in pieces. This is completely different than what other Scientists are saying as well as what the Drug company says about using GMO mRNA so the spike proteins after they attach to ACE2 receptors will not be able to get into cells.
Spike proteins from mRNA vaccines are almost identical to ones on virus. They are genetically modified with the addition of two extra amino acids that stop the ability of the spike proteins to allow the virus (usually attached) to enter cells after the spike proteins attach to ACE2 receptors on cell wall. If, as one Doctor says, the spike proteins are destroyed by proteasomes before leaving the cell they are build in, why would the drug company go to all this GMO effort to make sure the spike proteins stay attached to ACE2 outside of cells??? and why would a prominent Doctor go to such a length to counter the durg companies own narrative?
If the spike proteins did get out of the arm muscles intact, enter into circulation and attach to an ACE2 receptor at the cell wall, they would then just stay on cell wall until enzymes in the blood can digest and eliminate them. This brings up many questions about observed actions. Could the thorny barbs while attached on the smooth wall veins rupture some red blood cells passing through? Is this one way some of the observations about cardiovascular damage and blood clots happen? Or is the fact that the ACE2 is destroyed after spike attachment and virus enters cell the heart damaging mechanism?
Why are Scientists and Doctors giving conflicting messages about what vaccine spike proteins do and where they go?
Because spike proteins would at most only last three weeks, any possible damage while they were there could be very limited to small areas of the body. These effects may not be noticeable in the vast majority of people. But certain organs or other smaller structures so damaged could yield observable actions at a later date. It might be difficult to work backwards to such a cause later.
THIS IS WHY BUILDING HEALTH AND MAINTAINING PEAK IMMUNITY SHOULD BE A TOP PRIORITY, just in case... At the very least, everyone should be on zinc (15-30mg.) and a zinc ionophore, like quercetin (500mg), plus some vitamin C (250-500 mg.) with vitamin D (500-1000 IUs.)
Here is vital info for latest strain, Omicron BA.1, which already has mutated into 2 and 3. These strains are finding ways to avoid both the vaccine immune system and natural immunity form past covid-19 infections.
