virus defense strategy

protection starts with simple and affordable therapies

Do you and your family have a Viral Defense Strategy (VDS)?  If not, you need one now.  I developed a plan for my family almost three years ago when the influenza virus was causing chaos in South California.  Our very simple strategy of short term high doses of Vitamin D and Vitamin C was able to protect all of us even when we were exposed.  The strategies are not new, just some what forgotten in the world that is driven by vaccines.

Preparing your immune system to encounter virus loads above normal is our best sustainable defense strategy for all viruses:  Common Cold, Influenza, and even COVID-19.

Below you will find a compilation of the strategies that I have personally and have proven to be effective by myself and my family.  

Please note: I am not a doctor and the amounts listed below are just the amounts I have used personally and do not represent any form or recommendation for others.  Please consult your medical professional before starting any form of therapy or supplement program.

where do i start?
Know your risk - 2 min test

A quick online evaluation can help determine your risk factor when it comes to COVID exposure. 

are you at risk? digging deep into your numbers can help -time to make a plan
start below

Calculate your metabolic health

Best best defense is a great offense.  Going into battle with a compromised immune systems is a battle destine for a bad outcome.  Metabolic health is the first place to start when evaluating ones overall immune system.  A perfect score of 5 is when you are in range on all 5 test.  Subtract one for each test you are not in range.  A score of 3 or  less consult with your health care provider if you are not currently receiving quality care.

Metabolic Health Score:  5 excellent, 4 good, 3 fair, 2 bad, 1 very bad

 

 

HDL

40-60

TRIGLYCERIDES

<150

WAIST CIRCUMFERENCE

MALES <40” – FEMALES <35”

FASTING GLUCOSE/INSULIN

<100 mg/dL

BLOOD PRESSURE

< 130/85

Determine your complication risk factor

The evaluation of basic blood test below was developed at Mass General / Harvard Medical School in order to triage incoming COVID patients as to their risk of outcome.  The more test you score out of range on the test reflected in the chart below the higher risk you are of an unfavorable outcome when it comes to COVID.  The purpose of the evaluation it to help individuals to identify risk early and engage in active modifications that will minimize their specific outcome once they are exposed to the COVID virus.  

 

Vitamin D

< 60.0

#1 - Start Supplementing with Vitamins

Preventative

Here is what I and my family have used when we have actively encountering infected people or visited places of high risk

Vitamin A

Vitamin B6, B12, B Complex with Niacin

Vitamin C – 2 grams per day

Vitamin D w/ K2 – Maintain Level above 60 – everyone is different to test – dose – test

Zinc Supplement – 30 mcg in order to maintain plasma levels > 50 mcg/dl

Evidence Regarding Vitamin D and Risk of COVID-19 and Its Severity

When ordering remember empty capsules & capsule filler

Active – We use the following the moment we notice any change in our vitals:  Throat, Temperature, gut 

Vitamin D – 75,000 – 150,000 IU per day x 3 days then 5,000 – 10,00-0 IU in order to maintain levels

Vitamin C – Oral 2 – 10 grams per day depending on bowel tolerance or Intravenous up to 24 grams per day

Niacin – 500 mg 2-3 times a day depending on flushing 

Zinc – 75 mg over 24 hr period

#2 - Get GOOD Sleep & good Breath

Proper breathing and good sleep are critical in ones defense against viruses. Most Americans suffer from improper breathing, mouth, and poor sleep. From mouth taping to sleep hygene, there are a lot that can be done to improve our response to viral attacks.

#3 - Change your diet - remove all processed vegetable oils, start fasting and implement a Ketogenic diet

Only 12% of Americans are metabolically healthy and much of it stems from the fact we are no longer metabolically flexible. Metabolic flexibility is key to minimizing the effects of virus infections. What is metabolic flexibility? It is when you body is able to operate on sugar (glucose) and fat (ketones) efficiently. 

REMOVE PROCESSED VEGETABLE OILS

Processed vegetable oils high in omega 6 fatty acids have proven to be toxic to our mitochondria and the root of most chronic conditions that ails western society. These highly refined oils can be found in most processed foods (any food like substance that comes in a box, bag, or container) labeled as cottonseed oil, soybean oil, palm oil, corn oil, canola oil, peanut oil and any other oil other than olive oil, avocado oil or coconut oil.

CONTROL YOU SUGAR INTAKE

Since 1973 we have known sugar is toxic when consumed your white blood cells are “deactivated” for up to 5 hours allowing for viruses to multiply unchecked to a point where they can over power the bodies immune system. If you are immunocompromised you are even more at risk of obtaining COVID while consuming sugar.

FASTING AND MEAL TIMING FOR METABOLIC HEALTH

How do you know if you are metabolically flexible? Can you go most of the day without eating and not feel like you are starving or even hungry? Can you maybe go 24-48 hrs without food? If you said no to the above your body is metabolically inflexible or in simple terms not able to burn fat for fuel efficiently. Fasting from 36 to 60 hrs significantly increases the phagocytic index.  Meal timing is another important strategy to improving metabolic health.  Restricted eating window (time restricted eating) window timing (no late night) both help improve MH.

 

ketogenic diet will improve your metabolic health, metabolic flexibility and help protect you from viruses:  (cold, influenza, COVID)

#4 Nebulize with food grade Hydrogen Peroxide when in contact with others or in high risk areas

Pre-emptive – Best done if working in area with known infected people

Nebulize end of shift / 10-15 min / 0.1% food grade hydrogen peroxide w saline

Active – 2-4 times per day till condition resides 2-3 days
