Likewise, SARS-Cov-2 infection and acute COVID-19 are accompanied by an inflammatory response [29], increased MPO activity [45], indicants of oxidative damage [46,47,48] and increased NO production including increased levels of nitrotyrosine [49], and lowered antioxidant defenses (ANTIOX) as indicated by reduced TAC levels [45, 49], Gpx [50], and zinc [51]
We also know prolonged use of SSRIs 10,11,16 creates serotonin deficiencies that can result in lingering and debilitating withdrawal symptoms
Glutathione has been proposed as a potential treatment for COVID-19 to prevent the severe inflammatory process triggered by the virus, but more research is needed to look into whether it can really help
Nonetheless, PUFAs (such as arachidonic acid and epinephrine) are vulnerable to the Fenton reaction, which produces excessive peroxides that impair the phospholipid bilayer structure, thereby compromising cell membrane function [29,30,31]
When independent researchers went looking for the gene that would build it in the human genome, in gut bacteria they could not find it
