Natural Ways to Boost Your Immune System in light of COVID-19

Vitamin D is important to increase your levels with daily supplementation.  In an open letter send to world governments on December 21st, 120 health, science, and medical experts from the UK, US, and Europe say there is clear scientific evidence that Vitamin D reduces Covid-19 infections, hospitalizations, and deaths.

Vitamin C, we know it’s working well. There have been some studies on COVID where vitamin C has shown to have very good benefits in the outcome of an illness.

Zinc stops viral replication multiple ways, so it prevents the virus from hijacking your DNA, prevents the virus from replicating. It also prevents the virus from entering the cell, so zinc is very important right now.

Quercetin is what’s called a natural bioflavonoid. Quercetin opens up the cells in your body so that zinc can get inside your cells, where it works. As one natural health expert, Dr. Osborne says, “Think of quercetin as the key. Think of zinc as the repairman, that is allowed into the house, so-to-speak.” 

Studies and reports are also showing the benefits of Melatonin (1-3mg daily), Selenium (for cellular health), and Elderberry (for general immune boosting).

And finally, some interesting information about the Coronavirus from Dr Mercola…

  • According to bioweapons expert Francis Boyle, evidence suggests COVID-19 is a weaponized coronavirus originating from the Biosafety Level 4 facility in Wuhan City, China.
  • COVID-19 appears to be a chimera consisting of SARS (an already weaponized coronavirus), HIV genetic material, and influenza virus, designed with gain of function properties that allow it to spread a greater distance than normal.
  • Others research has suggested COVID-19 may involve Prevotella, a bacterium known to cause respiratory tract infections, and that this may explain some of the observed symptoms and how it can spread through feces.
