Coronavirus

ok, I forgot to add that one.

An adequate vitamin A intake is required in early lung development, alveolar formation, tissue maintenance and regeneration. In fact, chronic VAD has been associated with histopathological changes in the pulmonary epithelial lining that disrupt the normal lung physiology predisposing to severe tissue dysfunction and respiratory diseases.

What about Vitamin Calcium and Vitamin Magnesium ? :grinning:

except in this case you have to load up on zinc so the virus can’t replicate. Go look up why the 2 medications they’re giving people are working. You’ll find that the zinc ion is having a chemical reaction, stripping chlorine atom (growing into a small mass) as it enters the cell. All the info is out there.

I keep posting the link to the paper on it. I guess no one reads it?

Ive posted this to many times

The zinc2+ atoms are using an ionophore to enter the cell… when the virus enters the cell and tries to replicate, the zinc destroys the RNA trying to build a new one by damaging it. The cell may die but probably lives through it and repairs the damage to itself. It’s why the people start feeling better. The disease is stopped and the body starts repairing itself.

How and why do you extrapolate results related to SARS-CoV to SARS-CoV-2 ?

How is your Zinc aided recovery going (if you don’t mind me asking) ?

Zinc oral lozenges may reduce symptom severity for the common cold, due to inhibiting viral replication at the back of your throat.[52][53][54] Swallowed tablets aren’t effective, and nasal spray may cause permanent adverse effects.[55] Zinc acetate lozenges may be a bit more effective than zinc gluconate lozenges, although perhaps not significantly so.[54][56] Note that the doses that showed efficacy (75–95 mg of zinc per day) are too high to be safe in the long run. Don’t take them for more than a couple of weeks.

Quinine toxicity.

Yep. Without the introduction of an ionophore the cells can only uptake the Zn+ via osmosis which is slow at best. the cells don’t get enough to have an effective change to stop the RNA replication. The Zn2+ attom/particle builds up in the interstitial fluid surrounding the cell becoming toxic. There is minimal zinc uptake so it’s effect is minimal.

Go look at EXACTLY how the chloroquine reaction with the Zn2+ enters the cell. It’s why Quinine works.

the combination creates ZnCl inside the cell. It doesn’t stay interstitialy like the lozzenges do. It doesn’t kill the virus outside the cell. It stops it from damaging the cell from the inside.

Doug, how is your Zinc aided recovery going (if you don’t mind me asking) ?

Remdesivir and chloroquine effectively inhibit the recently emerged novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) in vitro

Chloroquine is known to block virus infection by increasing endosomal pH required for virus/cell fusion, as well as **interfering with the glycosylation of cellular receptors of SARS-CoV.**10 Our time-of-addition assay demonstrated that chloroquine functioned at both entry, and at post-entry stages of the 2019-nCoV infection in Vero E6 cells (Fig. 1c, d). Besides its antiviral activity, chloroquine has an immune-modulating activity, which may synergistically enhance its antiviral effect in vivo.

Everything in bold doesn’t show the chemical reaction to increasing pH, attacking the infection RNA, and lastly highlighted it modulates the immune function of the cell.

None of this shows the chemical reaction. From what I saw regarding ZINC, it was in stable form not cation form. the cation form. I’ll have to look up the cation form of Zn (aq) but I believe it has something to do with an electrolyte which the chemical reaction would most likely form ZnCl which is a salt. Salts can act as a base and an acid. Cl is base and Zn2+ is an acid.

Now, I’ve already said that choroquine and hydroxyquine are ionophone’s. what’s spoken to at the top bolded says “increase in pH”. Only a base can do that. You’d need a salt though to keep from damaging the cell. if you look at the salt Zn2+ + Cl2- you would have a stable salt. Salts can be bases or acids (aq) and increasing pH would require a base where Zn2+ bonds with something else in a covalent bond leaving Cl2- to increase the pH.

This is a possible (I don’t have the exact chemical reaction) reaction between the ionophone of chloroquine and Zn2+.

If by ZINC they mean it has 0 charge in aquas solution then no, stable zinc wouldn’t work.

@Raven-Knightly
DAMN!!!
you made me read the whole thing didn’t you??? I’m guessing at the chemical reaction because I haven’t studied exactly how an ionophore works.

CRAP!!!
I don’t want to spend all night reading about ionophores. I also don’t want to find out how zinc gluconate when separated causes a cation…

As I said, follow what they tell you and if you want to try what I said to hopefully give you something against the virus… what can it hurt?

You still need d to help absorb c… and have a read for Magnesium, Raven :stuck_out_tongue:

@anon84779643
I see ya typing… lmao… I had ta…I had ta!!! lmao.
I just couldn’t resist!!
of course, I could be wrong obviously. I had to take chem 102 3 times to pass. I audited biochem 1 and decided to RUN afterwards but had I taken it for credit I would have gotten a C-.

ION CHANNEL GATING
Ion channels are named by their ion selectivity and by their opening/closing mechanism, which is also known as “gating” . Voltage-gated and ligand-gated ion channels are the most abundant and well-studied gating mechanisms, but there are also light-gated channels, mechanosensitive channels, second messenger channels, and others. Although there are some non-selective ion channels, most ion channels are selective for particular ions, allowing only ions of particular size and charge to pass through. All endogenously present ions pass in and out of cell membranes via ion channels including calcium, potassium, sodium, chloride, and hydrogen protons. In the human body, ionophores are closely connected with functions ranging from digestion to mental health. They are used for diagnostic radio imaging, they are components of many pharmaceuticals, and are used widely in research to increase or decrease ion concentration in solution. The ions transferred are usually metal ions, for example: lithium (Li+), sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), magnesium (Mg2+), and calcium (Ca2+); but there are ionophores that promote the transfer of other ions, such as ammonium (NH4+) amines of biological interest.

Calcitriol (manufactured in Kidneys, from Calcidiol manufactured in Liver, from dietary or UV activity on Cholesterols in human skin sourced Vitamin D), is a hormone that modulates absorption of the following minerals in the small intestine (in an order reflecting the magnitude of measured effects):

Calcium;
Phosphorous;
Magnesium.

Have been a Magnesium enthusiast for many years. “Raving Raven’s Mineral Water”:

Citric Acid (poor person’s Lime juice concentrate)

Sucralose (oh yeah, baby !)

Including small amounts per serving of:

Magnesium (as the Citrate, converted from the Hydroxide form)

Calcium (as the Citrate, converted from the Carbonate form)

Any internet reference links (to scientific/clinical research papers/findings) about D affecting Vitamin C ?
