Treating a fever

Curious to know if there’s any peaty methods for treating a fever

antibiotics
Carbogen breathing. If not, drink carbonated water or take baking soda.
Thiamine intake, to reduce lactate levels in blood and as a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor.
Increasing availability of CO2 brings acid-base balance to optimal levels, by CO2 being a pH buffer as well as improving tissue oxygenation to bring the body back to producing energy via the oxidative respiratory pathway, thus producing energy needed for recovery maximally, and CO2 maximally as well.
Sunshine for vitamin D.
Gelatin and meat for providing glycine, cysteine and glutamic acid needed to make internal glutathione. To provide reduced glutathione needed to make sulfhydryl bonds for thin mucous to easily be used to wrap pathogens around for the killing, and easy expulsion of phlegm.

if its just a couple degrees up and for a few days it can be helpful so maybe best to let it run,
but if goes over generally mechanism of fever is IL-1b -> cox -> pge2 Or IL-1b -> glutamate in brain

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9565638/aspirin has antipyretic effect (through lowering pge2) , low dose can also lower il-1b but ive seen the opposite, maybe happens with higher dose idk https://bmcoralhealth.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12903-023-03243-0
paracetamol is effective but not exactly "peaty"
Ginger also works https://www.researchgate.net/publication/357002038_ANTI-INFLAMMATORY_ANALGESIC_AND_ANTIPYRETIC_ACTIVITIES_OF_GINGER_ZINGIBER_OFFICINALE
& stuff that lowers endotoxin (LPS from bacteria is 1 thing that creates fever, through il-1 in brain) -
