READ THIS IF YOU DON'T WANT TO GET SICK THIS WINTER.

Here is the ULTIMATE PROTOCOL for preventing + curing your sickness this winter (& why it works):

1. VITAMIN C

◇ Improves immune clearance of pathogens
◇ Antioxidant protection
◇ Collagen production (forms physical barriers to infection)
◇ Vital for development of immune cell differentiation (gene regulation)

Vitamin C powerfully protects against common cold.

1-3g per day, reduces:

◇ Sick days
◇ Symptom severity - headache, fever, chills, cough
◇ Frequency of colds

Acerola cherry powder seems to be handled better in the gut than pure vitamin C.

2. ZINC LOZENGES

Sucking on zinc tablets, having them slowly dissolve, has strikingly beneficial effects for respiratory infections.

⇨ Direct antimicrobial
⇨ Immune cell differentiation
⇨ Improves pathogen clearance
⇨ Strengthens mucosal barriers

Zinc lozenges cuts cold symptoms in half.

⇨ ~20 mg zinc lozenge
⇨ Every 2 hours
⇨ Up to 8X daily

was shown to double the amount of people who recovered from common cold.

Zinc lozenges nearly reverse all cold symptoms.

⇨ Cough
⇨ Drainage
⇨ Congestion
⇨ Sore throat

& more.

Same protocol:

⇨ ~20 mg zinc lozenge
⇨ Every 2 hours
⇨ Up to 8X daily

these can be bought at most drug stores.

3. METHYLENE BLUE

MB is a direct and potent antiviral.

Especially if symptoms are mainly respiratory / throat, having 5-15 mg of methylene blue dissolved in water can quickly help lower the viral load.

4. GROUNDING

Surprisingly, grounding has actually been shown to improve recovery from COVID,

likely due to its antioxidant / anti-inflammatory benefits.

20 minutes daily, minimum, bare feet on the grass.

5. GLYCINE

Glycine mainly helps with immunity by aiding in the synthesis of collagen,

which helps form our physical barriers to pathogens.

Glycine also has a key anti-inflammatory and antioxidant roles.

Glycine dramatically reduces risk of flu and cold.

At 10g / day,

>80% of people reported NO flu or cold.

Prior to glycine, >80% DID get flu or colds.

Insane.

This is the glycine supplement we use personally and with clients: lifegivingstore.com/glycine-powder…

Glycine is found mainly in tendons, broths, and skin of animals, and can also be supplemented.

I would definitely include these foods for my illness diet.

6. RAW HONEY

Honey has tons of unique compounds that have:

◇ Antiviral
◇ Antibacterial
◇ Antifungal
◇ Antioxidant
◇ Anti-inflammatory

properties.

1 teaspoon of raw honey strikingly beneficial for cough.

Selecting the darkest variety, just this little bit of raw honey consistently improves all metrics of infectious cough.

You can have more though, no reason not to.

7. ASPIRIN

Not only does aspirin reduce inflammation,

it encourages the resolution of inflammation - the way that illness actually ends.

Other anti-inflammatories do not do the latter, so while they improve symptoms they don't help you get over the sickness.

Aspirin does.

Aspirin is a powerful antiviral.

Shown capacity to eliminate flu, cold, and other respiratory viruses.
