Ladies and gentlemen, check this out:

There has been some hype about Nigella sativa as an ivermectin alternative. So I decided I wanted to figure out what was in it. Turns out we have a few exciting surprises!

Source research paper:

https://www.hindawi.com/journals/tswj/2021/6623609/

"HPLC-DAD identified gallic acid, hydroquinone, apigenin, naringenin, ascorbic acid, cysteine, rutin, quercetin, and kaempferol."

THERE YOU HAVE IT, FOLKS.

Rutin is a compound that I identified in a thread I posed the other day. It is a naturally occurring compound that functions as a protease inhibitor just like Ivermectin, and it's an over the counter supplement. There is some good research out there.

Gallic acid? Turns out, also a protease inhibitor.

Apigenin? Guess what? Also a fucking protease inhibitor.

Naringenin? Of course it's also a protease inhibitor. Listen, if you can't guess by now...

Ascorbic acid is Vitamin C, I'm sure you already know all about Vitamin C.

Can't find much on cytesine yet. N-acetyl citesine yes, but not regular citesine. Yet...

Quercetin I'm sure you all know about by now. It's a good alternative ionophore to pair with zinc supplements. I'm pleased to hear that quercetin is also present in this plant.

Kampferol? This one apparently binds to ACE2 receptors and might help prevent C19 virus particles from latching on.

Well, I'd say that's a fantastic list of ingredients. Any other plants we can name that have those?

I know Elder Flowers have gallic acid, rutin, quercetin, apigenin, naringerin, kampferol, and vitamin C.

I also know Ginkgo leaf has apigenin, naringerin, rutin, quercetin, kampferol, and gallic acid. Not as much vitamin C though.

Those have many of the same ingredients and I bet they'd work similarly.
