An interesting and informative read.
This section stuck itself out at me:
I eat a lot of potatoes - Irish roots, and all that - but more interestingly, in the past 4 or 5 years, I've been drinking a lot of green tea as well. Makes me wonder how much that, in combination with my natural genetic resistance, played into the fact that I never suffered ANY detectable effects of my bout with covid.
I've also not got any access to a sauna - there probably ain't one within 200 miles of here, not even a home-built one in someone's back yard. I have a sneaky notion that a sweat lodge may serve the same purpose, though, so that's something to explore.

Quote:Serine protease is another enzyme that’s “responsible for the proteolytic cleavage of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, enabling host cell fusion of the virus.”19 Inhibiting serine protease may therefore prevent spike protein activation and viral entry into cells. WCH compiled several natural serine protease inhibitors, which include:
Green tea
Potato tubers
Blue green algae
Soybeans
N-acetyl cysteine (NAC)
Boswellia

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.’
