#Coronavirus #COVID19
There is a lot of information out there on the coronavirus, some of it miss-leading. But what do you really need to know? Here are the Coles Notes for the Corona Virus 2019 (COVID-19)
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
Due to the fact that the COVID-19 is a new strain of virus, there is limited research on therapeutic strategies. At this time there is no known treatment or anti-microbial for the Coronavirus. We recommend following strategies to reduce the risk of contracting the microbe (Germ Theory) and supporting your overall health and immunity (Host Theory).
1. Prevent Exposure: Reduce the risk of exposure by following the latest recommendations of the CDC and World Health Organization.
2. Wash Your Hands: Regular frequent hand washing is an important strategy for protecting against all types of infectious diseases. Coronaviruses can remain on inanimate surfaces like metal, glass, or plastic for up to nine days. The coronavirus can be inactivated within one minute through disinfection with 62-72% ethanol, 0.5% hydrogen peroxide, or 0.1% sodium hypochlorite (bleach).8 Research also shows that strategic use of alcohol-based surface disinfectants and hand sanitizers can reduce viral spread by 85-94%.9,10
3. Lifestyle: Optimal nutrition, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and stress management can contribute to healthy immune function.11
4. Zinc: Although there is no direct evidence at this time to suggest that using zinc lozenges can prevent or treat COVID-19 in people, zinc does have anti-viral properties and was shown in a laboratory study to inhibit the replication of the coronavirus in cells.13 The coronavirus is a respiratory disease and it is in the upper airway that zinc lozenges can have some activity. Those who may be at risk for being low in zinc include the elderly, vegetarians, and anyone takes medications that reduce stomach acid and ACE inhibitors on a long-term basis. Caution- recommended to use for up to a week, as excessive zinc can cause copper deficiency, can impair the absorption of antibiotics, and can reduce the sense of smell.
5. Deep Immune is a herbal combination that is immune enhancing (astragalus, reishi, schisandra); and adrenal and stress reducing (codonopsis, eleuthero, and licorice) that are adaptogens that push back against fatigue.
6. IV Therapy of vitamins and minerals supports overall health and immunity. Therapies tailored to you. IV therapy has been found to improve allergies, asthma, bronchitis, chronic hives, sinusitis, viral or bacterial infections. Key nutrients include high dose vitamin C, magnesium and B vitamins.18-31
