Gargle: Simple but Powerful

---

Glutathione is found in every single cell of your body. It's essential for detoxificaiton and immune health. Glutathione acts like your body's handyman, repairing cellular damage and removing toxins. In fact, one reason why all of the nutrient and oxygen therapies work so well is because in some way, they all support glutathione production, recycling, and utilization. There's so much to learn about glutathione, we've dedicated a full page to the subject.

Vitamin D

Vitamins D deficiency or insufficiency is now known to be a key factor that increases risk of infection and disease severity.

Lancet article: Vitamin-D and COVID-19: do deficient risk a poorer outcome?

Lancet article: Vitamin D for COVID-19: a case to answer?

J. Infect. Public Health: Role of vitamin D in preventing of COVID-19 infection, progression and severity

Click HERE for an excellent video about the importance of Vitamin D for COVID-19.

A vital paper titled Evidence Supporting a Phased Immuno-physiological Approach to COVID-19 From Prevention Through Recovery published in IMCJ Integrative Medicine – A Clinician’s Journal provides a comprehensive approach to preventing infection as well as addressing symptoms at varying stages, with nutrients and therapies that support optimal immune system function.

"When we are challenged with a viral infection, our need for vitamin C can rise dramatically, depending on the body's immune function, level of injury, infection, or environmental toxicity such as cigarette smoke. Ascorbate at sufficiently high doses can prevent viral disease and greatly speed recovery from an acute viral infection." SOURCE

"Vitamin C can be used as a stand-alone therapeutic agent to eradicate a viral/bacterial infection if given in high doses as constant infusions (Zabet et al. 2016).  Based on this mechanistic rationale explaining the therapeutic use of vitamin C to prevent inflammatory hyperactivation in myeloid and lymphoid cells we conclude that supplementation with high dose vitamin C appears to be able to both prevent and help treat respiratory and systemic infections. Ascorbate at sufficiently high doses can prevent viral disease and greatly speed recovery from an acute viral infection." SOURCE

Zinc is a mineral known to shut down viral replication and critical to resisting and recovering from infections. Drugs.com article: Does Zinc protect you from Covid-19 or boost your immune system? 

Many other nutrients, such as Vitamin A, are vital for the immune system and utilized in many protocols. Journal Nutrients: COVID-19: The Inflammation Link and the Role of Nutrition in Potential Mitigation

Melatonin

"There is significant data showing that melatonin limits virus-related diseases and would also likely be beneficial in COVID-19 patients." SOURCE

Hydrogen Peroxide

"Hydrogen Peroxide has been used for decades to conquer viral infections by thousands of doctors in thousands of patients all over the world. . . .Nebulization is a new way of administering hydrogen peroxide therapy that is almost as effective as the IV."LEARN MORE

Viral Pandemic: A Review of Integrative Medicine Treatment Considerations

ACIM Immune Support Protocol

"In this literature review, the environmental contributions to illness, immune responses, and treatment recommendations were reviewed with the intent of providing practitioners actionable information to effectively treat their patients as well as providing patients information that they can utilize to educate their health care practitioner. With the ample medical literature available, it is readily evident that there are many nutraceuticals that are effective for preventing and treating viruses in early stages of exposure. The modalities addressed in this article are directed towards therapies that may be administered at home. Integrative medicine has many other treatment modalities that can be used in a clinical setting that are not addressed in this article. There is ample medical literature demonstrating the capability of nutraceuticals to reduce viral morbidity and lower mortality."

This case series study of 107 successfully recovered patients represents one of a vast variety of natural approaches utilizing nutrient protocols, and ozone &  hydrogen peroxide therapies.  "Every substance used in our cohort is either an essential nutrient or an oxidant mediator actually manufactured by the body. Nothing foreign to the body was used, nor anything patentable." Recovery times were rapid. "Patients reported feeling completely better after 6.9 days." LEARN MORE

No treatment is more political right now than HCQ. But doctors across the United States and around the world have reported that when given at the appropriate time with zinc, and sometimes with azithromycin, it is capable of preventing infection or recovering patients.

Articles about HCQ from AAPS

A country-based analysis found a 77.8% lower death rate for the countries that adopted early HCQ treatment. See the analysis.

A growing list of studies on HCQ can be found at C19study.com

Quercetin is a natural alternative to HCQ. "Quercetin displays a broad range of antiviral properties which can interfere at multiple steps of pathogen virulence — virus entry, virus replication, protein assembly —and that these therapeutic effects can be augmented by the co-administration of vitamin C. Furthermore, due to their lack of severe side effects and low-costs, we strongly suggest the combined administration of these two compounds for both the prophylaxis and the early treatment of respiratory tract infections, especially including COVID-19 patients."

"The MATH+ Hospital Treatment Protocol for COVID-19 is a physiologic-based combination treatment regimen developed by leaders in critical care medicine. All component medicines are FDA-approved, inexpensive, readily available and have been used for decades with well-established safety profiles . . . [MATH+] is intended for use early in the hospitalization of patients presenting with states of respiratory distress requiring supplemental oxygen."
