I actually think I have had the virus, in January and then in February plus came into contact with it again recently. I'll describe why. I thought it was because of the bushfire smoke and couldn't breathe properly, very short of breath and with a dry cough, felt hot but it was the summer from hell so put it down to that. My digestive system wasn't too flash either. I actually went and bought Ventolin to help me breathe but I'm not asthmatic, just needed a bit of help, also got an expectorant to help clear my lungs. Felt much better after two weeks and.started going back to the gym. Got my fitness back by two weeks of that and felt awesome after a workout so went out for dinner and a stand-up comedy show, had a bit to drink and got sick again soon after with the same cough and shortness of breath, feels like a lot of fluid on the lungs but can't cough it up. Another two weeks off from the gym but didn't need the Ventolin. Then a whole month of excellent health, frequent gym and no alcohol and had an immune reaction on monday. Think I came across the virus again but I have immunity now, antibodies. I think this because it was a different reaction. Just a sore throat, swollen glands and stuffy nose. Felt poorly for three days and I'm not too bad now. No cough or shortness of breath this time, likely because I have antibodies now and the virus couldn't get a hold.
I take a lot of supplements, it's like a hobby. Go to the gym, eat well and research and experiment with supplements. This is what I found helped me the most:
N-acetylcysteine taken with glycine and glutamine. This is turned into glutathione by the liver which is the best thing for your health imo. It is the bodies major antioxidant and also supports and regulates the immune system. It's the best thing for your liver that you can do as well. Vitamin C. Eating things with vitamun E and A as well, like avocado, seeds and liver (Maggie Beer's pate for me).
Probiotics as well. Mutaflor, Perkii and I think it's called Nextra from Chemist Warehouse, it's a spore forming strain called bacillus coagulans. They fixed my digestive system. The Mutaflor is likely hostile to the virus, the Perkii increases immunity in the lungs and the coagulans is great for diarrhoea.
Highly recommend the N-acetylcysteine, you.can feel it working immediately, you feel really good straight away and your health continues to improve from that point on if you keep taking it.
Good luck, and look after yourselves
