Friends, Important Information.

Besides, this coronavirus is a new kind of virus which belongs to a > mutated strain and our body cannot recognize it. > > No antibiotics have been proved to be 100% effective in treating viral > infection so far. The only effective way to get rid of it is by ourselves. > It likes a prolonged battle between the viruses and our immune response. In > fact, viruses couldn't kill all the immune cells in a healthy individual. > The stronger the immune function you have, the less the viral injury you > get. Therefore, the degree of sickness after infection and the rate of > recovery mainly depends on how strong your immune function is. > > You cannot avoid the infection unless you avoid from those infected > individuals/area.

The following suggestions aim to strengthen your immune > function within a short period of time. > > 1) Antioxidant nutraceuticals: Antioxidants are chemicals found in > foods which exert a great value in strengthening our immune system. Boost up > your immune function by taking a cocktail of antioxidant supplements. > - Vitamin E 1000 IU per day. Alpha-tocopherol is the > biological active form of vitamin E. There are two forms of it: d-tocopherol > and dl-tocopherol. d- is the natural form and dl- is the synthetic form. > Try to get the d- form because it is absorbed faster in our body. > - Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) 1000 milligram (mg) daily. Instead > of taking supplement, you can take 2 pieces of citrus fruits (e.g. orange) > a day to get the vitamin C. > - Beta-carotene, not more than 10000 IU daily > - Selenium, 200 microgram daily > - Zinc, not more than 500 milligram (mg) daily > - Lipoic acid, 50 mg daily > - Glutathione, 50 mg daily > No any adverse effects have been reported from the above suggested > supplementation dose. > > 2) Let green tea to be your daily beverage because it contains > tremendous amount of antioxidant flavonoid, catechins. > - Eat more tomatoes, broccoli or fruits and vegetables in red > and dark green color. They carry a huge amount of antioxidant carotenoids, > lycopene and carotene. > > 3) No intense physical activities during this critical period! It has > been shown that intense exercise will suppress your immune function (related > to the upper respiratory infection) even several days following your > workout. Instead of intense exercise, light-to-moderate workout helps if > you have been training regularly. > > 4) Make sure you get enough carbohydrate foods (e.g. rice, food > concentrated in starch... etc) because carbohydrate is the primary food for > immune cells. Do some Gatorade or Pocari if needed since they are both good > sources of carbohydrate. > > 5) Make sure you get enough sleep and don't make yourself so stressful! > Anxiety, depression, and tired will influence your body's stress hormones > (e.g. catecholamine and glucocorticoids) and so suppress your immune status. > > 6) Mouth-mask helps despite it is not 100% effective. But it can still > decrease the chance from infection. > > All the above information are supported by peer-reviewed biomedical > literatures, that means they are credible and reliable! God bless and I > really hope that none of you will get infected and I will pray for all of > you in every moment! > > Good luck and take extremely care. > Parco M.
