    Hi Cindy – I’ll try to answer you but my answer has to start with “it depends”. Each of us is different and have different symptoms/needs. I try to watch my body closely but I know I miss the opportunity of being objective and I am not a health professional.  To determine what might work best for you  – and that needs frequent updating as our bodies change all the time – try adding something and carefully observe changes, then add the next item and so on. I believe the several supplements I take daily generally synergize but I have a couple underlying medical issues that might influence my response to these supplements.

    If you have a mucous issue I recommend serrapeptase but always list a MAJOR CAUTION – do not take it anywhere close ( 3+ hours before or after) to pills or food. I usually take it at night at least 4 hours after dinner as I want to maximize serrapeptase’s effectiveness.

    I had taken 4 months of the expensive Wei Laboratories products and they helped a lot. I needed a maintenance dose several months ago (March-April) but they could not ship here to me. So my cough was slowly getting worse from around January until a few months ago.

    I started but stopped N.A.C. in May but started it again several weeks ago. I started some strong cups of green tea because at first, I could not get the E.G.C.G. extract. Once I started EGCG and the NAC my cough got better in a few weeks. So much so a friend I talked to last week and had not talked to since March noticed my cough was much less.

    Between these 3, I might suggest EGCG first unless you have a serious mucous issue then serrapeptase first. I take the NAC because a couple here have mentioned it a long time ago and a recent video from a doctor I follow better explained why he takes it and he is definitely a physician/scientist at Loma Linda Hospital treating COVID 19 (ccp virus). Importantly food is a key ingredient to help mitigate your cough and I too try to avoid inflammatory foods but still love making homemade pizza – hahaha.

    Again I believe what I take all help:
    Nattokinase

    Serrapeptase

    D3 with K2m7

    B complex

    Fish oil

    Co-enzyme Q10

    EGCG

    NAC

    Metformin (for diabetes but it may help with some cancers (unknown))

    Zinc – caution

    Hope this answer will help you because I am reluctant to just state this or that is best for you or to anyone else.

    Stay well – Steve
