Re-posting at the request of an anon Patriot.
Here are the things anons have dug on that, based on preliminary research, seem to have some potential to reduce spike protein damage – either by protecting cells from the spikes, or by dissolving the spikes themselves.
A) SOURCES OF SHIKIMIC ACID (3)
- Pine needle tea
- Fennel tea (you know, the seeds they put in Italian sausage)
- Anise tea (the star-like things they use in Chinese cooking, taste like liquorice)
B) Bromelain (an extract made from pineapples) – often sold in 10mg tabs
C) Acetylcysteine (also called N-Acetylcysteine or NAC) – an amino acid often sold as 200mg tabs that the FDA suddenly wants to regulate now.
Academic research on why these things are thought to be effective against spike proteins:

I can't find NAC... Anyone know where its still available?
Wally World has it available online
Thanks
