Just started, one dose on day one and one on day 3, then once a week for two weeks. After that one dose every two weeks if you want for prophylactic use. So far no issues at all. We take 50mg of Zinc, 5000IU of D3, Quercetin 500mg w/ Vitamin C 1400 every morning just to help build up our immune systems. I will leave out the Zinc and Quercetin after a month or so and add back if I feel we need it, but think I might continue the Ivermectin every two weeks for awhile. You need to take Ivermectin w/ food. The other vitamins are better taken on empty stomach in the morning.
Not Zinc, always take that with food otherwise you will feel like your going to throw up.
Oh definitely this... I always take zinc on a full stomach
Really, so if quercetin is the vehicle for the zinc and it's to be taken in the am on empty stomach how does that work exactly or am I misunderstanding something?
I have no idea what you just said to be honest, I only know from experience of taking zinc on an empty stomach it makes you want to puke. Last time I did that I was able to eat some grapes and the nausea went away.
Since I suck at explaining things:) I found where it discusses this in Dr. Zelenko's protocol:
"Quercetin helps zinc by acting as a zinc ionophore (PubMed 2014), the same mechanism of action that hydroxychloroquine has via helping zinc pass the cell wall where it might halt viral replication.
This zinc ionophore activity of quercetin facilitates the transport of zinc across the cell membrane. It is known that zinc will slow down the replication of coronavirus through inhibition of enzyme RNA polymerase (PubMed 2010)."
So this is why I was wondering the above. I take them together on an empty stomach in the morning and have not had any issues so far. I guess a protein drink or something, even a couple of saltines might help someone if it bothers their stomach.
Also, make sure you get a teensy bit of copper now and then - necessary with the zinc. Sorry, cannot recall why ;-)
Zinc and copper need to be in balance. Too much zinc and you can deplete copper and vice versa. I buy a Zinc/Copper capsule which has the correct zinc/copper ratio so I don't have too worry about that.
I told some friends about that, and they went and checked their multivitamins. Neither had zinc in them which is BIZARRE, and only one had copper.
