Hi, thanks to you all for this topic.

I too am very interested and have been following these studies.  My son is a chemistry professor and has been assisting me by reviewing clinical studies of natural readily available products that would be safe for me. I am currently taking several products that have been referenced with positive results in research related to IPF: Idebenone, Teavig0 (94% Egg), SMChelated Zinc Glycinate and HPN S sirtuin Booster as well as NAD+ Nicotinamide Riboside chloride. I also provided my pulmonologist with a list of everything prior to beginning them to make certain they were safe and work with Esbriet.  I am currently able to exercise daily (Oxygen was just added at a low rate) in my home gym and take 30-40 minute walks at least 3-4 times a week.  Thank you all for following these studies; as mentioned in the thread it’s so frustrating to think we may not be around long enough to benefit with the slow pace of it all.
