NAC (N-Acetyl-l-Cysteine) 600 mgPure Encapsulations·90 capsules
A precursor to glutathione, the body's primary antioxidant. NAC has a high affinity for lung tissue, where it acts as both a mucolytic and an antioxidant — helping thin mucus and buffer the oxidative stress that accompanies an acute respiratory infection.
How to take it: 1 capsule (600 mg) twice daily, between meals — 1,200 mg/day · 1 month

O.N.E.™ MultivitaminPure Encapsulations·120 capsules

How to take it: 1 capsule daily, with a meal in the morning · 1 monthDon't take it close to bedtime.

3
Melaton-3Thorne·60 capsule
Beyond its role in sleep, melatonin is an antioxidant and immune modulator. Sleep is one of the strongest levers on recovery during acute infection, and protecting it through the illness matters for how well you come out the other side.
How to take it: 1 capsule (3 mg), 30–60 minutes before bed · 1 monthIf you already take a sedating medication for sleep, skip melatonin to avoid excessive sedation.

4
NattokinaseOrtho Molecular·60 ct
A fibrinolytic enzyme derived from fermented soybeans that supports healthy circulation and balanced coagulation. Included because acute COVID drives a pro-clotting state, and microclotting is one of the mechanisms implicated in Long COVID.
How to take it: 2 capsules twice daily — 4,000 FU per dose, 8,000 FU/day · 1 month · optional 2nd monthTalk to your clinician first if you take blood thinners or have a bleeding disorder. At this dose a 60-count bottle lasts 15 days, so a full month takes two bottles.

5
Curcumin Phytosome 60sThorne·60 capsule
Curcumin promotes a healthy inflammatory response. The Phytosome delivery system binds curcumin to phospholipids, which substantially improves absorption over standard turmeric extracts.
How to take it: 1 capsule (500 mg) twice daily — 1,000 mg/day · 1 monthAsk your clinician first if you take blood thinners. Cut the dose in half if you notice loose stools or a yellow tint to your skin or eyes.

6
Alpha Lipoic Acid 600 mgPure Encapsulations·120 capsules
An antioxidant active in both water- and fat-soluble tissue, so it reaches essentially every cell. ALA also helps regenerate other antioxidants — including glutathione — extending the antioxidant capacity NAC helps build.
How to take it: 1 capsule (600 mg) three times daily with meals — 1,800 mg/day · Until symptoms resolveTake it with meals. Don't take it if you have a thyroid condition. ALA can lower blood sugar, which matters if metformin is also part of your plan.

7
Quercetin PhytosomeThorne·60 capsule
A flavonoid with antioxidant and immune-supporting properties, frequently paired with zinc in acute viral protocols. The Phytosome form addresses quercetin's notoriously poor absorption in its standard form.
How to take it: 1 capsule (250 mg) twice daily with meals — 500 mg/day · 1 month
