Immune Support - Helpful or Waste of Money?

[RedRoseActual]

Hey, MESO. I'll start off, no not for the intention of avoiding COVID, but more common illnesses such as your general cold and cough virus.

As of the last month I've been battling a nasty virus. I've been antibiotics, but when I kick it, I want something to help prevent. I haven't been able to workout for the last month due to coughing/breathing issues (No COVID, confirmed by three Doctor visits). I see a lot of new immune support supps and I'm curious if it's worth it.

There are some wonderful items that support the immune system
Zinc/Magnesium or even probiotics (healthy stomach flora has been shown to have a direct effect on our immune systems)

My suggestion would be to research and purchase them individually, as the "Immuno 10000 supplements) are typically overpriced

I try to keep a stock of the following:
-Liposomal or lypospheric vitamin c
-Liposomal or lypospheric glutathione ( I am planning on getting the injectible form)
-Zinc Piclonate
-Vitamin D3 drops
Whenever i get signs of flu/cold coming, I start dosing up on the above and It always helps me.
And lately, I take a teaspoon of curcumin powder to help with internal inflammation as inflammation is the cause of lot of diseases.

C and Zinc are in my daily protocol and have had a definite benefit in reduced illnesses over the years since I started supplementing. I'll typically do a zinc/mag tab AM and PM and 2g of C per day. If I feel something coming on, I'll boost C to 6g ED. Just make sure to split up C doses as it can cause the runs.
