THE SHORT ANSWER

Do not use exosome products as a COVID-19 or flu prevention strategy. FDA has warned about unapproved regenerative products and unsupported treatment claims.

What is useful to understand?

For seasonal illness, focus on established public-health measures and advice tailored to your age, health and exposure. A wellness product should not delay recommended vaccination discussions, testing or prompt medical care when you are ill.

What can you ask or do next?

  1. Review respiratory prevention guidance.
  2. Ask your clinician which immunizations fit your situation.
  3. Make a plan for testing and early treatment if you are high risk.

One more question

Does the word regenerative imply stronger immunity?

No. A marketing term does not show that a product prevents infection.
