It most likely isn’t shield and defend, but has anyone who has been taking this noticed any dizziness? It seems like everytime I stand up I feel a little dizzy. I know Quercetin In studies has been show to reduce blood pressure significantly, so I’m curious to know if since your body absorbs the Quercetin co crystals much better if that is dropping my blood Pressure in which is causing me dizziness.

Best way to find out is to check your blood pressure. The only side I have had from Shield and Defend was a little flushing the first time I took it. I have noticed allergies seem to be better when taking it too.

Only way to know is to test Blood pressure.
Ive been taking this stuff for months now and I also take a beta blocker to lower blood pressure and I havnt noticed anything.
Too much zinc can potentially do this but there is only 15mg. (not a super high dose). Are you taking anything else with zinc in it like a multivitamin or other supplements?

You don’t take an ace inhibitor anymore?

Ya I’m taking another immune support supp that has 25mg of zinc, so 40mg a day.

Also tested BP it was 127/79 so that’s pretty normal, but then again BP changes drastically throughout the day

Thats an exceptionally high dose. I wouldnt suggest 40mg daily. PLus Quercetin is a zinc ionophore so increases uptake.
No more than 15mg daily recommended.
My guess is you are overdosing on Zinc.
Particularly since BP is fine.

Always keep in mind that because some of something is good more is not always better. Especially with Metals like zinc, copper etc or non water soluble vitamins like D and A and E.

Yes sir.
In fact quercetin is also a senolytic so it has significant antiaging properties.
Plus is good for the heart and helps with allergies etc.
Great stuff.
Awesome. Keep it in production brother, and you've got a life long customer. Haha

Would love to hear the results of taking it as a staple over the course of a year, and seeing how one fairs during flu and cold season.
Same! The more I talk to people, the more and more people I find that have immune issues! I’m sure many people would benefit from taking it year around!

Just got my hand sanitizer In the mail, was pleasantly surprised to see a free bottle of amino infusion! Just about finished the other free bottle I got from shield and defend. Great Products, Great Company.
That is wonderful. Thank you.

And some of my immune issues are my own doing. Darn that blue Bell and chocolate chip cookies!

I've been finding that I've been feeling off a bit since starting Shield and Defend. I was taking a zma product before starting, so I adjusted that down to just one capsule per day instead of the usual 3 to keep my zinc levels within the recommended range of under 30 mg/day. However as the days have stretched into weeks on Shield and Defend I found that I was feeling adverse effects after taking the product, with a bit of light headedness and mild headache at times. After taking another look at the labels of all of my supplements I discovered that Evomuse Gut Health has 23 mg of zinc per capsule, so I've been taking a pretty high amount of zinc for several months now, as high as 53 mg/day. Gut Health is a year round staple for me, so it looks like I may have to half dose or even completely stop the Shield and Defend unfortunately.

Also quercetin is a zinc ionophore so it increases uptake and utilization of zinc.
I for sure dont recommended 50mg ever of zinc but especially with quercetin co crystals

Yesterday I was able to take one capsule of Shield and Defend in the morning and my daily dose of Gut Health in the evening with no issues. I suspect I'll continue to use the products in this fashion going forward.

Nobody I know.
Myself and everyone in my family and close friends take it daily.
Some work in hospitals or are first responders and so far so good.

Hypothetically, if you were to contract covid would you continue using FD2?

We have more material if people are interested.
I would be interested in more probably in the fall. I am on my third bottle right now. A pure quercetin-niacin co crystal product would be nice to. A lot of other products already have zinc in it and I worry that I might get too much.
For anyone interested Sunday is the last day of sale.
Just ordered a bottle of cbd to try. I have tried a lot of pure isolates and I want to compare. Also ordered 2 bottles of follidrone. With my gym currently closed I will be using it for general health and increasing endurance for hiking and biking.

I dont seem to see any benefit from isolate CBD products.
Full spectrum has been a world of difference. Youll see when you try.
