Keep writing. Layperson here and I doubt taking in more black tea, zinc, and eating beetroot will harm anyway. Also it appears to make sense that increasing the amount of a molecule that allows for better circulation, and thus more oxygen flowing, could potentially help.

Actually it could be bad. I AM JUST TALKING. It could be that increasing NOS at the wrong time might make it harder to get oxygen. It might be beneficial at the begining of the infection but bad if you already have pulmonary vasodilation. There is a huge blood pressure drop when things get bad so more NO might make it worse. But thanks.

  > It could be that increasing NOS at the wrong time might make it harder to get oxygen Then FFS STOP TALKING! Useful advice is only useful if it's useful. If it's not useful (AKA 'just talking') it's useless. Unless it has another purpose, which I am starting to suspect is to make you feel good. I don't mind informed speculation but this is not how you are presenting it. If you admit you don't know if it could be beneficial or harmful, why are you spouting it here?

    I was not giving advice. You are taking it as advice. That is stupid. Talking is by no means useless, what an odd thing to say!

  Gotcha - well either way I am not going to experiment on myself with the gas, but as i said, drink black tea instead of coffee and add beetroot to my diet. I think presenting both pros and cons of an idea is a must in any debate.

  A doctor told me this when i relayed your comments: They noticed: “oxygen does not enter molecules because of virus toxins, and instead of capturing 4 molecules the hemoglobin only captures one”. He did not have an opinion on wether nox can have a benefit but indeed it appears that people can breathe but the oxygen is not delivered. Very interesting.
