isnt it interesting that the Democrat party and "BIG" Business have become joined at the hip?

L-Lysine

You can buy a bottle of this stuff for less than $15 on amazon.
??????????????

This is far from a randomized, double blinded, prospective study.

This information is simply rubbish and shows what is wrong with non-peer reviewed "medical" information from some granola/vitamin magazine.

I don’t buy this at all. I need to see the results in an actual clinical trial. Some article from Whole Foods ain’t cutting it……..

If a well-conducted clinical trial trial is done that shows it’s effective, I will be the first to load up on it!

It is really impressive how quickly you recognize crackpot theory as it is related to COVID.

Excess amino acids cannot be stored in the body. What happens to them? They are metabolized in the liver and converted to nitrogenous waste and stored fats and glycogen.

If you want to increase the nitrogen content of your urine, consume more amino acids. You could urinate on your plants and provide them fertilizer.

I take glycine because it's not abundant in my or most people's diets... it's the anti-aging amino acid. That and/or collegian peptides. NAC would also fit into that list but most people aren't really deficient in NAC compared to glycine. If you eat meat, you don't need to supplement with lysine.

I was actually taking L-Lysine right up until the day I was infected with the Alpha variant in Feb 2020. Unfortunately L-Lysine alone won't protect against infection but perhaps it contributed to a less serious acute outcome.

L-Lysine should be used along with many other nutrients such as Vitamin D3, Magnesium and Omega 3s etc. No silver bullet unfortunately. Just like Zinc or Vitamin C alone won't make you impervious either.

My views are entirely consistent in all realms.

Covid conspiracies are crazy, as well as belief in ghosts, global warming, luck, astrology, herbal medicines, magic, space aliens, "the iluminati", medical benefits of pot, etc........... Pearl Harbor wasn't planned by the US or Brits. The space landings weren't faked. Elvis and Bin Ladin are dead. Hitler did not escape the bunker. There are no space aliens at area 51. Diversity weakens, and does not improve, a culture.

Unfortunately, hard data, math, and science are out of "vogue" now and emotion and conspiracy theories rule the day.

This is why I am perplexed on why the pneumonia vaccine booster isn't being promoted right now.

You are correct in that L-Lysine is more important in prevention but it cannot hurt to add now.
