Arnold Schwarzenegger puts out a newsletter, 'Arnold's Pump Club.'

In this post there is a short article titled "A Good Reason For Bad Breath", reproduced here:
Cold season is just around the corner. Between back-to-school crowding, colder air, and everyone staying indoors together more often, upper respiratory infections tend to tick up during the fall and winter. Although there’s no cure for the common cold, scientists are always looking for an edge in preventing infections. Good news: a recent study showed that supplementing a combination of garlic powder and onion extract decreased the risk of upper respiratory tract infections, namely the common cold and the flu.
More research is needed to understand why onion and garlic supplements could help ward off the common cold, but their effects on the immune system could be the reason. Onions and garlic are rich in sulfur-containing compounds (like alliin, in garlic), which may improve the ability of white blood cells to fight off unwanted germs.

Additionally, the article links to these fairly shallow, yet insightful, articles:

.
Conclusion: According to Arnold, a former CA Governor and therefore a Genius Level Expert on Diseases and Climatology (by Liberal standards), Colds and the Flu (and therefore Covid due to the nature it is a flu variant) can be combatted with common seasonings such as Garlic and Onion.
Likewise, not only is Flu season NOT caused by Climate Change, Global Warming, or Global Cooling, we don't actually know what causes it, but we have some guesses based on LOGIC & FACTS.

UPDATE: This was not meant to support Arnold, but rather point out the irony of the newsletter's content, given his political position.
Unlikely, but I wonder why they left that in, even if it is recycled advice from the 90s.
I see. Also by the way the alliin in garlic also lowers blood pressure, studies found it to be as effective as many of the prescription drugs that they keep forcing people into. I my own experience I drop 8 points just from taking garlic extract at least twice a day. Beet root powder or extract has similar effects but since it uses a different pathway they stack.
That is good to hear. I've neglected research on it, but I know garlic has some amazing properties.
I have several people in my immediate circle that could benefit from this, I'll be sure to pass it on.
