I wanted to give our customers an update, since we have been getting a lot of questions surrounding the Coronavirus situation. We here at Nootropics Depot are currently operating like normal. However, we are taking the situation seriously. Currently, orders are being processed and shipped out like you would normally expect. However, things can change rapidly. We have been using enhanced biological protections at our facility, along with having multiple non-essential employees work from home, in an effort to social distance in a responsible manner.

NAC supposedly inhibits cytokines / inflammation. However some sources state inhibiting inflammation is actually a bad thing. Rather confusing for idiots like myself.

I've made a few comments on the dual stage inflammatory response with COVID-19 on here you might be interested in.
So it is complicated on the inflammation thing. You want some inflammation in certain stages, then you want to limit it in others. My main goal for myself right now is blocking the spike proteins of the virus from binding to ACE2 to begin with. I think that, paired with zinc ionophore activities, are the best way to supplement for SARS-CoV-2 at the moment.
