Skullcap and Green Tea
If you missed the stream with Dr Johanna Dienert then I highly recommend that you watch it. She is a virologist but also an MD who has treated Covid patients.
During the stream she mentioned Skullcap and Green tea as powerful antioxidants as well as other flavonoids. She has been censored from twitter but has started a sub-stack here; https://medicaloversight.substack.com/ Her website is here: https://johannabuchenau.wixsite.com/praxis-dr-deinert/home
Skullcap has many uses and Antidiabetic is only one of them.
Antidiabetic herbal medicines rebranded as dietary supplements

26.11.1 Significance of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi
Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi is a member of the Lamiaceae family indigenous to East Asian and Russian regions: from Southern Siberia to North Korea and Vietnam. Known by its local name huáng-qín, the dried roots of S. baicalesis constitute as one of the most important Chinese herbal medicines. It is claimed to be used for over 2000 years mostly as part of a polyherbal formula. The common English name of ‘baikal skullcap’ does not distinguish the plant from related species (e.g. S. lateriflora) that differ in their chemistry, pharmacology, and therapeutic relevance. The medicinal use of the plant (mainly the roots) range from common cold and respiratory infections to dysentery, hypertension, haemorrhages, insomnia, and inflammation. The plant is now widely used as a supplement including for its claimed antidiabetic and antiobesity effects (Fig. 26.29).

Making Kombucha and Water Kefir
My feet have been playing up again and a bit of redness and swelling around the toes (covid toe?) . I suspect my Fabry is triggered when I come into contact with the virus (the vaccinated are constantly shedding). So I have taken to making Kombucha using Green Tea and also making water Kefir. I will be bottling some tonight and probably starting a new batch of ginger water Kefir (Ginger Beer). I am also making milk Kefir now and Yogurt. Starting to streamline the process.

To D or not to D?
We looked at the question in a previous article:
Kevin answered a question about D supplementation during his previous stream but I would add the following (which I posted on the Discord):
Vitamin D does suppress immunity and does act like a hormone. It should be taken with K2 M-7 to stop calcium leeching.....but...but...but...the virus and the Spike protein (in the transfection) make the immune system and T cells hyperactive....so damping them down is a good thing....unless you want to exhaust your T cells. So I would say use with caution perhaps not as a prophylactic but when you suspect exposure?
