   Back when I used to look at ZH comments, a strange commenter — whether planted there or writing odd things for fun — wrote that people should look up what “dark winter” referred to in US military war games planning something like that from shortly after the turn of the century. I spent about 30 seconds looking it up. It was smallpox.

   Rumors of smallpox would be a dandy way of keeping people indoors, even those who had been vaccinated decades ago, no? Could it get William and Melinda giggling? I don’t think they are that extreme, are they?

   I am sorry to admit it, but I do still have that thought in mind however as I keep a decent supply of certain vitamins, quercetin, zinc, garlic/onions, etc etc just in case these things might help. Not to mention toilet paper.

     The source of this comment on ZH impressed me as a larp-troll type who researched and wrote carefully — didn’t just write any old thing to get the downvotes. In any case, the thought is hard to get out of my mind. At least for me it is hard to forget since “she” (for all I know the author was a he or a team) didn’t write “smallpox” but instead gave the tip to look it up and maybe even provided key words. Making me do some work probably made it stick in my mind all the more. Dark indeed.

   Who knows what they are injecting into the masses and what kind of trojan horse is being implanted into the populace. That might be the next ‘wave’ of illness when these folks start to get the cytokine storm of their own immune systems attacking itself.

   Anyway, eat one or two brazil nuts a day for the selenium mentioned. Take D with K2 to keep those levels high, Zinc good too.

   A good thing to have on hand is:

   ALLI-C Allicin with Vitamin C and Bioflavonoids – 30 Vegetarian Capsules Capture The Power of Garlic

   It’s a highly concentrated form of the thing in garlic that makes it such a great supplement

     I’m reluctant to state what I take since it’s not an area of formal expertise for me and I don’t want to mislead people. I take what a lot of people here take probably. I do believe that mushrooms have a fair amount of Se.

     A website that I like is whfoods.org. I have no connections with them. As I note, I do not have significant formal specialized expertise in nutrition though I know my way around a bit. Although their board of directors has people with unorthodox training I believe that their research is not just sound but reliable for what it states (also rather orthodox).

     It is quite possible — I suspect probable — that to have some of the ideal antiviral (or anti-aging etc) effects of some nutrients (if any) one may really have to take higher doses than one can get in foods. This site does not recommend supplements. For example, they’ll just have you eating lots of garlic and onions and tell you how to prepare them so as to maximize their antioxidant and antitumoral content etc when you eat them. Supplements or not, I suspect that if someone follows their advice — and uses their recipes — one gets a great balanced diet that tends to keep one healthy. Their listing of foods contains nutrients of each food listed, but you can get that at various sites. I also take supplements. Quite a lot in fact.

   I slice garlic liberally on my pizza. I use it in cooking and flavour salads with it. The health benefits are under rated.
   Garlic can even prevents pregnancy. (You feed a girl garlic and see who is going to get he pregnant)
   And bonus, I have never ever been bothered by vampires.
   Cheers.
