Pick up any dictionary and look up "peanut" to see said image.

...wait wut

100% real life though I tend to get massive bonrars when I'm conking out due to intense fatigue. It's like a penile myoclonic jerk.

All the same symptoms. And in fact I think I caught it again a day or so ago. But I just had it so, so far symptoms are very very mild. Almost not there. Well see. But I caught some weird white buildup on my tonsils and was feeling kinda rundown. Feel ok today but started taking zinc, vit d, and c with that queeratin chit.
Taking quercetin with the zinc is key. 2-3 times a day load up. Quercetin acts like a key letting more zinc into your cells than they would normally take in. The zinc then makes any virus harder to replicate itself (works on a specific enzyme), so the combination is universal for viral infections. I have quercetin in bulk powder, tastes gross and is chalky but that's what OJ or other juice is for.

OP, also after you're done recovering consider a water only fast for 3-5 days. Your immune system is slightly down during the fast but will be stronger afterward. It isn't some broscience crap, real research (and a few million years of evolution) behind it. Keep the fast to 5 days or less and you won't lose muscle either, since during a fast your GH levels skyrocket. To be fair you could lose like 1/8th of a pound of muscle in 5 days, but probably not even that. I haven't seen any strength loss after 3-4 day fasts, but keep workouts on fasting days short, as too much intensity could be counterproductive.
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!

Mentioned in a similar thread from a week or two ago. But in my house we take Vitamin D, zinc, magnesium. We add chaga extract to the kids' juice in the morning as well and occasionally take it ourselves. I take NAC religiously as well...every cold my 1st grader has brought home from school since the start has been fended off within a couple days. Srs.

Good stuff srs. I tried to forage for chaga this fall but couldn't find any.
