Nicotine and Toxins

 It has been suggested that covid acts on the nicotinic cholinergic system (NCS) as one means of creating damage. I first ran across this in writing on Parkinson's and learning that nightshade plants were protective against the disease. This included tobacco and tomatoes. This discovery is not new to the medical community. The following is just one quote on this research from a medical journal:

"Converging research efforts suggest that nicotine and other drugs that act at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) may be beneficial in the management of Parkinson’s disease. This idea initially stemmed from the results of epidemiological studies which demonstrate that smoking is associated with a decreased incidence of Parkinson’s disease."
Parkinson's has been associated with exposure to toxins including herbicides and pesticides. Some researchers are now suggesting that Covid contains snake venom toxins or peptides which are known to target the kidneys and lungs.
It appears that nicotine may provide some protection against Covid as well. One research paper states: "we observed a significantly lower proportion of COVID-19 patients with smoking history compared to what is expected, given the population average for each study’s geographic area."
My point is not to recommend smoking but to suggest that Covid does its damage as a toxin. Most of the treatments for Covid that actually provide protection are effective against toxins. This includes vitamins C and D, NAC, polyphenols, zinc, chloraquin, ivermectin, and monoclonal antibodies (which have been used to treat snake bite).
The question is why has the health establishment been working to block access to substances including nutrients which give every appearance of protecting from Covid? Monoclonal antibodies were pulled off the market. Ivermectin, NAC, and chloraquin have been attacked and made unavailable. Smokers are not allowed to smoke in the hospital so nicotine levels fall within hours. It is not unreasonable to think that the Covid bioweapon was developed using snake toxic peptides or that substances with anti-toxin properties are protective.

Prevention Protocol Viral Infections

 The following Covid-19 Prevention Protocol for a healthy person was published by the International Society for Orthomolecular Medicine (ISOM). This is in no way optimal nutritional intake but a bare minimum of nutrient intake to support an immune system to fight of viral infections. Censorship is heavy in this area. I have received notices that the connection is not secure. I highly recommend watching the video Living Proof which presents both sides of the argument for use of vitamin C.

.
• Vitamin-C -- 3,000 MG per day (SHOULD be divided into doses, at least 3 doses) as tolerated
• Magnesium -- 400 MG per day (ideally, divided into doses)
• Vitamin-D3 -- 2,000 IU per day
• Zinc -- 20 MG per day
• Selenium -- 100 MCG (micrograms) per day




Vitamin D and Covid

 A recent study found that exposure to sunlight that can increase vitamin D levels prior to infection with Covid-19 reduced risk of hospitalization and death from the virus. This is hardly surprising news as the benefits of vitamin D against influenza have been noted for years.


Skin Conditions

 The following appeared in the news recently:

"Aug 11 (Reuters) - Three new conditions reported by a small number of people after vaccination with COVID-19 shots from Pfizer (PFE.N) and Moderna (MRNA.O) are being studied to assess if they may be possible side-effects, Europe's drugs regulator said on Wednesday.
Erythema multiforme, a form of allergic skin reaction; glomerulonephritis or kidney inflammation; and nephrotic syndrome, a renal disorder characterized by heavy urinary protein losses, are being studied by the safety committee of the European Medicines Agency (EMA), according to the regulator."
This news item interested me because I read it just after getting off the phone with someone who was having apparent kidney problems after being vaccinated. Very few people would make a connection between the two in spite of the fact that spike protein is known to impact circulation which is very important to kidney function.

Infection Protects

 A recent study out of the Cleveland Clinic reported that if an individual had a previous infection with Covid-19 vaccination did not appear to provide any additional protection or benefit. The conclusion and summary of the research is as follows:

Conclusions 
Individuals who have had SARS-CoV-2 infection are unlikely to benefit from COVID-19 vaccination, and vaccines can be safely prioritized to those who have not been infected before.
Summary 
Cumulative incidence of COVID-19 was examined among 52238 employees in an American healthcare system. COVID-19 did not occur in anyone over the five months of the study among 2579 individuals previously infected with COVID-19, including 1359 who did not take the vaccine.

Efforts to immunize those who have recovered from the infection are motivated more by pharmaceutical profits than by science. The immune system of recovered individuals according to this analysis provides substantial protection against repeat infection.
