NAC is like carbocysteine a mucolytic you can get on prescription if needed,

Ginseng I don’t touch, it speeds,

I did a blood test and was given conventional vitamins like vitamin D from Solgar, and B12. Vitamin C helps too.

Regarding respiratory inflammation I have always believed in thyme. It was confiirmed by my ENT. She said I could even make a bottle put it in the fridge and gargle with it my larynx is so inflamed.,You can get it in tea bags nowadays but of course there is nothing like boiling the real herbs..

Don’t go over 3 cups a day for 5 weeks then you can try Rosemary and have s course of that.

Regarding minerals there is zinc which helps with the immune system.

And for food protein of course you should aim at 3 times a day it helps the body repair damaged tissues.

I had low blood protein.

So I went to a hospital nutritionist to balance my diet.

Breakfast milk or yogurt or a 30 gr piece of cheese

Break 5 to 8 almonds

Lunch and dinner:meat or fish, eggs twice a week

Good luck x

I have been taking NAC for a few years I swear by it but I also take Daliresp I haven't been to hospital in 4 years. My doc gives me antibiotics and steroids if I feel like I am getting sick.
