Quercetin, Bromelain and Zinc
#3
Bromeliane is effective against inflammations. It helps with things like joint pain caused by inflammation, so it may be working against inflamed nasal/sinus tissue to make breathing freer. It can be gotten from fresh pineapple, and some other members of the bromeliad family of plants.

I ran into some uses and indications for Quercetin a few weeks ago, but don't recall them at the moment, and will have to refresh on that substance. I do recall that it can be gotten from the bark of some particular trees.

Zinc I know practically nothing about, other than it is a metal, and is taken to alleviate colds and flus, which covid and presumable nasal/sinus trouble can sometimes mimic. Since I don't eat metals as a general rule, my zinc intake is probably not what it should be.

Here is some information on quercetin. As it turns out, my memory was faulty, and it can be got from quite  few sources. All I recalled was trees of the Quercus genus.

Quote:Quercetin is a plant pigment (flavonoid). It is found in many plants and foods, such as red wine, onions, green tea, apples, berries, Ginkgo biloba, St. John's wort, American elder, and others. Buckwheat tea has a large amount of quercetin. People use quercetin as a medicine.

...

Quercetin has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects which might help reduce inflammation, kill cancer cells, control blood sugar, and help prevent heart disease.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
