Spike Protein: What You Need To Know

Two days ago, I attended a webinar that I can’t stop thinking about. It wasn’t polished. It wasn’t cautious. But it was urgent, direct, and for many of my patients essential. If your child has PANS, PANDAS, long COVID, or sudden, unexplained neuropsychiatric symptoms, what was discussed needs to be on your radar.

The Spike Protein Isn’t Done With Us

Dr Tina Peers, who has worked in reproductive health and menopause for decades, now focuses on treating patients with MCAS, long COVID, and post-spike syndromes. She described a pattern we’re seeing across clinics: children and adults who were previously healthy are now chronically unwell. Some after infection. Some after immune-triggering exposures. And some after both.

Fabio, founder of the Zero Spike Project, brought the fire. He called the spike protein what it is –  toxic. Whether made by the virus or by the body post injection, it latches onto ACE2 receptors across the brain, heart, gut, reproductive organs, and endocrine system. The result A breakdown in regulation. Inflammation. Neurological chaos. And a healthcare system largely unprepared to deal with it.

Why This Matters for Families Dealing with Neuroimmune Disorders

If your child has PANS or PANDAS, you already know the immune system can turn on the brain. The idea that a single protein could continue to trigger that reaction even years later is not a stretch. It’s a biological reality.

This isn’t just theoretical. Dr Peers talked about the sheer volume of patients she’s seeing with mast cell activation, hormonal disruption, cardiac symptoms, suicidal ideation, autoimmune flares, and neurological damage. It’s not rare. It’s just rarely acknowledged.

What’s Being Used Augmented NAC

The main intervention discussed was Augmented NAC. Standard NAC (N acetylcysteine) is already known to support detoxification, break down mucus, and aid glutathione production. But the Zero Spike team has used quantum coherence technology (yes, it sounds bizarre no, it’s not magic) to alter the electromagnetic signature of the NAC molecule. According to their lab data, this enhanced form is able to detach spike protein from ACE2 receptors and denature it rendering it biologically inactive.

Dr Peers has seen rapid results with it, including in patients who had tried standard NAC with little benefit. She recommends a build up approach, especially for sensitive patients. She has used it with adults, children, and even toddlers, and reports improvements in energy, mood, neurological symptoms, and overall function. For most, the protocol for adults,  is three capsules a day for three months, then a maintenance dose of one or two daily.

Does It Work What Are We Seeing Clinically

Patients report less brain fog, more energy, improved sleep, better mood, reduced POTS symptoms, and even the lifting of long standing depression. Dr Peers herself described her own reaction to the second injection and how within 24 hours of starting Augmented NAC, her symptoms began to resolve.

But this isn’t just about recovery. It’s also about ongoing exposure. Repeated infections, environmental persistence, and possible transfer from close contacts were all raised as potential sources of continued spike protein burden. That’s why some are choosing to continue low dose Augmented NAC as part of their long term protocol.

What About Testing

Fabio’s team has developed a urine test for spike protein fragments currently available in Italy and launching soon in the US. It offers a non-invasive way to assess whether the body is actively clearing spike fragments – something we’ve also been able to explore through select blood testing in our clinic. These kinds of tools could become vital for tracking detox progress in individuals with persistent symptoms.

Is It All Too Much Possibly. But That Doesn’t Make It Wrong

This webinar wasn’t comfortable. It wasn’t politically neutral. But in clinic, we don’t have the luxury of waiting for consensus. When children are regressing, flaring, or stuck in a state of chronic inflammation, we act. We investigate. We listen. And if a tool helps reduce toxic burden and restore function, we use it.

I don’t align with every statement made in that webinar. But I don’t need to. I align with results. And if this intervention continues to show the kind of impact it’s had on the patients I trust and the clinicians I respect, we cannot afford to ignore it.

Spike injury is real. Persistence is real. And for some of our most complex children, this may be a missing piece.
