Covid and Long Covid treatment

Many of these treatments have already been featured but is worth repeating because Covid is not going away and variants are being spread by the vaccinated who are shedding. So both the virus and vaccinating can have long term effects.  We are not talking about a cold or flu but neurological complications, cancers and heart disease.  This compilation comes from Spartacus but is similar to ones that I have posted before.

Severe COVID-19 = viral vascular endotheliitis with thromboinflammatory response. Neutrophils go out of control and you end up with NETosis, lipid peroxidation, sepsis, DAMP formation, etc., in a runaway feedback loop. The virus’s proteins promote amyloid-fibrin clot formation, and the lungs start loading up with microclots and suffering transient ischemia, which leads to ischemia-reperfusion-like injury of the vital organs (which upsets the redox balance of the blood vessels and the tissues, leading to lipid peroxidation, ferroptosis, et cetera). Here’s how to treat it at home:

  • Vitamin C
  • Vitamin D
  • Vitamin K
  • Zinc
  • NAC
  • Selenium
  • NMN
  • Glycine
  • Quercetin
  • Curcumin
  • Kutki Powder
  • Natto-Serra
  • Melatonin
  • Famotidine
  • Diphenhydramine

What do all of these things have in common? They are all potent antioxidants. Vitamin C is an antioxidant. Vitamin D draws excess calcium out of cells by activating Ca2+ ATPase , which has an antioxidant effect. Zinc is not just an antiviral (especially when paired with an ionophore like quercetin), it’s also an antioxidant, inhibiting NADPH oxidase. NAC and selenium are precursors to the glutathione and the selenocysteine molecules that are necessary to the functioning of glutathione peroxidases, which are arguably your cells’ primary defense mechanism against oxidative death. NMN acts as a NAD precursor, preventing parthanatos. Glycine is also crucial in glutathione synthesis. Quercetin is a powerful antioxidant and augments the effect of zinc. It’s also anti-amyloid. Curcumin is a plant polyphenol and a powerful antioxidant, and is one of the main compounds found in turmeric. Kutki powder, made from the picrorhiza kurroa root, is rich in apocynin, an extremely potent antioxidant closely related to vanillin that inhibits myeloperoxidase without harming the ability of neutrophils to engage in phagocytosis. Nattokinase and serrapeptase are potent fibrinolytic enzymes that help break down amyloid-fibrin clots. Nattokinase also has known antioxidant effects. Melatonin is an antioxidant. Famotidine and diphenhydramine (Pepcid and Benadryl) are also antioxidants and inhibitors of ferroptosis.

This is supported by peer-reviewed papers. https://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8106523/ As a matter of fact, redox modulation should be the first-line treatment for any COVID-19 case.

Why isn’t it?

This from Walter Chestnut:

Other factors which influence autophagy are acute heat exposure, as one would experience in a sauna, flavonoid consumption, phenolic compounds, and coffee. Resveratrol can also induce fasting, as it acts as a protein restriction mimetic, and metformin, a diabetes medication, can influence autophagy signaling. Surprisingly, cold exposure, in addition to heat exposure, also increases autophagy. Hyperbaric oxygen and ozone therapy may also stimulate autophagy.

Lots of Parasites out there

Lots of Parasites out there

This has been tagged under health because I have a series of articles discussing medicines and supplements that can be useful in combating Covid.  These are supplements that you should stock in your medicine cabinets.  I am not a doctor and am not giving medical advice (…but then again I see a lot of qualified doctors deliberately giving wrong advice) simply directing you to information and primary sources where I can.  It is up to you to do your own research. 

Remember that there is no magic bullet and remember that supplements and even natural remedies can interact and do come with side effects.  That said, I have stocked my medicine cabinet.  We are engaged in a biological and psychological war and therefore we need to keep mind, body and spirit sound.  The biggest risk factor for covid is obesity and I am too fat. I think the stress and threatened food shortages is making me eat more and move less so I am on (another) diet but I just might have that extra mint.

Down the health rabbit hole

Before I go any further I want to take another look at Ivermectin (IVM) which seems to be doing really well in Africa and has been adopted in Japan.

 

The parasite problem

Of course,  big Pharma has discredited IVM and the media has made it a partisan issue.  It is “sheep” medicine and therefore Trump supporters are taking it (lolz).  They did the same with HCQ,  it is a well worn path and it works on the brainwashed masses.  Health should have nothing to do with politics, the treatment either benefits or it doesn’t. IVM has been banned in some countries.

When thinking about this I fell down the rabbit hole and I am going to send this article to a number of people who have a better insight into bio-chemistry than me. I worked as a Senior polymer-chemist and spent two years in a plant pathology lab (in the Netherlands) as a junior.  I refer to myself as a “bucket” chemist who worked in industry.  So here then come my questions and observations.   I came across the following tweet and it triggered something…my gut tells me there is something linking all this.

Wormwood

Artemisinin is sweet wormwood.  The Chinese are dispensing it with HCQ and IVM.  Artemisinin works against malaria.  What do all these drugs have in common?  They are all anti-parasitic.  Do the Chinese know something that we don’t?

For some reason when I looked into this before I got distracted with EBV or Epstein Barr Virus.  That is the problem with the internet…you jump from one thing to another and go down a rabbit hole and never come up for air.  But I know something is there….my gut tells me.  I need people with more expertise to join the dots.   Here goes then.

EBV is often asymptomatic and has recently been  linked with seven autoimmune diseases.  The British researcher Dr. Anthony Epstein first identified the virus that bears his name in tumor samples sent to him by Dr. Denis Burkitt, an Irish surgeon and missionary working in Uganda in the 1950s. The samples came from a rapidly fatal cancer of the immune system first described by Burkitt in 1958.

What is interesting is that not everyone that had EBV developed  cancer.  In fact, in the West EBV is known to cause  Glandular fever or “kissing disease” mainly characterized by fatigue and fever and common in teenagers etc. EBV has an interesting pathology  but it no longer (as far as I know) causes cancers such as Burkitt discovered in Africa:

"The geographical studies carried out by Burkitt and others suggested to most that the African lymphoma was a rare manifestation of a common virus infection transmitted by mosquitoes. The subsequent discovery of EBV seemed to confirm this. However, it is now known that EBV is not transmitted by mosquitoes, but via saliva....and...Overall, the evidence suggests that at least one mosquito-borne disease, most probably malaria, predisposes to the development of Burkitt lymphoma. Malaria causes profound hyperplasia (overgrowth) of B lymphocytes—the cell lineage from which Burkitt lymphoma is derived".

What I find even more interesting (Mark are you there?) is that the Hutch reckons to have developed a vaccine for EBV which sets more alarm bells ringing. Or is that just my tinnitus?  Perhaps I am clutching at straws?

Conclusion

The world is full of parasites. Some are microscopic some are large and bold with hair plugs.  I have ordered Artemisinin for my medicine cabinet.  I think I might start a naturopathic pharmacy and start grifting (lolz). Curcumin is another one to stock and I must get hold of some saffron. Nature has a wonderful medicine cabinet.
