Update/BLIS k12 🧵
My experience with BLIS k12 has been extremely positive & I feel important to share. My families symptoms (sore throat, cough etc - see original 🧵) resolved/mostly resolved within 24hrs & turned a corner within 48hrs.
Now all 90-95% better. I have remained asymptomatic. All continue to test -ve. It was impressive to see the quick turn around of symptoms. We have been taking BLIS k12 4x day (packet says can take up to 4/day), the Italian study used two lozenges at night:

Zero of 33 children taking the BLIS K12 oral probiotic (two lozenges at night) tested positive, in the control arm (no oral probiotic) 24 out of 46 children tested positive (study link above)
Recent study shows BLIS K12 increases immune response to COVID in oral mucosa:

BLIS k12 is a special probiotic blend developed by a New Zealand microbiologist Prof John Tagg. BLIS is an acronym for a special type of anti-microbial peptide known as ‘Bacteriocin-Like Inhibitory Substances’.
It works by colonizing your respiratory tract so pathogens can’t stick and beefs up the oral immune response:

It is day 5 since the onset of symptoms, we will continue testing for a few more days but since symptoms have mostly resolved (by day 3) I’m not expecting any positive tests (there can be no ⬆️in viral load if symptoms have significantly improved).
I don’t know if we dodged COVID
or some other respiratory virus. All I know is symptom resolution was impressive. We did take several other supplements beside this one (Zinc, Vit D etc)
