Among other things, I'm taking a capsule of apo-lactoferrin.

It has antiviral properties. It chelates iron, which is a growth factor for covid 19.

There are tests being done to see if it is effective against covid 19.

It's still speculative.

Beryl,

All studies show that melatonin has an excellent safety profile, but as with anything, some people do not tolerate it well, but the main intolerability issue is the next day drowsiness, making it no doable for some people, however in the case of Covid-19, a life threatening health issue, next day tiredness is not an issue, because if you have Covid-19 the only place you will be is in bed, not out and about. Covid-19 is well noted for disrupting sleep, so something that helps you sleep is likely to be quite useful as the body does some of its healing during REM sleep and melatonin promotes REM sleep and in fact is a frontline treatment for REM Behavior Disorder (RBD).

Melatonin is also useful for preventing long hauler after effects from Covid-19. So it seems that it may be worth it for some people to find out if they tolerate melatonin or not.

In any case there are two things that are definitely worth considering when you are going to be in crowded areas, colloidal silver and Xlear Nasal Spray. I wrote about Xlear Nasal Spray for Covid-19 here :

Here is a link to a study that clearly shows that Colloidal Silver Nanoparticles destroy SARS CoV-2 :

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/articles/PMC7645297/

Here is a quote from this study :

>>> ' We present a series of three mild-moderate risks, symptomatic, COVID-19 patients, treated with the intranasal combination, as an adjuvant to their ongoing treatment, with rapid clinical improvement and shorten time to negativization on repeat intranasal swab test via PCR. No safety issues were noted during the course of treatment. Xlear nasal spray, containing xylitol plus GSE, given its established safety profile and compelling clinical results described here, could be a potential adjunct treatment option in mild-moderate COVID-19 cases. ' <<<

These are 3 supplements I will definitely use to fight Covid-19 and its variants, of which there is a newly discovered and rapidly spreading one named Omicron in addition to the Delta variant.

Here is a link to the Nasal Spray :

Earth Clinic is now selling Colloidal Silver Nanoparticles (yellow AgNPs) because of increasing requests for availability of a quality AgNP product.

With the yellow AgNPs, I put these in a small two ounce spray bottle that can be carried in pocket or purse for disinfecting hands, surfaces that you may have to touch that may be contaminated such as door handles, shopping carts or restaurant table tops and for spraying in each nostril and the mouth to destroy pathogens of multiple types including SARS CoV-2. I also find it useful to disinfect cuts and scrapes It can also be consumed orally at suggested doses from the large bottle.

Another consideration is the over 130 remedies listed on EC here:

Good luck!

I don't think you can prevent it, its in the air.

A few things of the top of my head to stop it:

Anti-viral nose spray. Some brands good at killing it up to 4-5 hrs (providone iodine based might get you 4-5 hrs of killing action)

Mouthwash several times per day (listerine or colgate peroxyl is good)

Vitamin D3+K2 (extra dosage)

Vitamin C (extra dosage)

pH above 6-6.5

Zinc up to 30mg with quercetin as the carrier

NAC 1200mg per day

Thank you very much Art for the comprehensive answer to my question as to whether there is anything I can take to help prevent Covid 19, and for yours too, Betty.

I'd already ordered some colloidal silver from Amazon before I posted on Earth Clinic, can this be made into a spray for the throat, or does it have to be swallowed? And I shall certainly purchase some of the recommended nasal spray.

As Betty says, it is in the air all around us, and we can only do our best to help prevent it.

Ivermectin - 12 mg daily

Artemisia Annua herb - 1 capsule daily.

Make sure you maintain high levels of vitamin D, vitamin C and zinc by supplementing.

Gargle morning and evening with 1% iodine solution.
