I'm no scienceologist but trying to figure out what zinc ionophores are. In one source I saw it seemed to indicate this is the form of zinc that's most effective.
I've tried DDG searching, found this which was interesting but not particularly helpful in what I'm looking for https://michaelsavage.com/foods-high-in-quercetin-epigallocatechin/
So I'm curious about this in relation to zinc supplements, I've noticed varieties in different brands and trying to determine of one variety/form is better than another as far as C19 is concerned, and what if anything ionophores have to do with it.
I'm preparing something for myself, but also to present to family/friends for supplements and foods helpful in prevention of, and treating C19.
At this point I'm just going on further unnecessarily w/o anything further really to say. Any input is appreciated, thanks!
Your best bet for substances you have access to, and can readily get is Quercetin. You should also try to use chelated zinc. Chelating is the bonding of elemental zinc to a molecule that allows the body to easier absorb the zinc.
I ended up going with zinc picolinate. I'm still doing further searching, one thing I saw suggests the picolinate is easier absorbed by the body. Maybe none of it really makes much of a difference as long as you're taking zinc, but I'd like to try and make sure.
picolinate is good form. but definitely take Quercetin. it's a bioflavonoid that works in many cellular processes, and in the case of Covid is demonstrably beneficial in both prophylaxis and treatment.
I posted this above, but posting here for your eyes only lol:

"But by far the richest source of quercetin is capers. Although they look like berries, capers are actually tiny flower buds that grow on shrubs throughout the Mediterranean region. According to data collected by the USDA, raw capers provide 234 milligrams of quercetin per 100 grams (3.5 ounces). Canned capers in brine — as they are commonly eaten — provide 173 milligrams of quercetin."
did not know about capers. always better to get nutrients in their natural state. thank you.
