You can look in Pub Med. Beta Glucan is the active ingredient in these mushrooms. In order to narrow the search, you can use the term &#039;immunogenicity of beta glucan&#039;. also search for elderberry to see research articles.]]></description>

Probiotics are probably helpful in restoring a depleted gut flora but of no use whatever in fighting off a virus to which we have zero immunity. Bacteria do not &#039;compete&#039; with viruses for food in the gut or anywhere else for that matter. Viruses attack cells in the body. In the case of covid-19 the cells of the respiratory tract. There is no defence other than robust good health (and a strong immune system) and avoiding getting infected in the first place.
There is no evidence that L-lysine or zinc &#039;nullifies reproduction and multiplication&#039; of any virus.
This kind of ill-informed pseudoscience is at best a waste of time and money and at worst downright dangerous.]]></description>
