It sells a lot of newspapers: fear. We’re all going to die! Run to the hills! Or if you’re already on a hill, run from the hills! If you’re halfway up or halfway down, just run!
Aside from the panic, here is the problem as I see it. Mainstream medicine has what I regard as an obsession with fighting disease. Unfortunately mainstream medicine is focussed on fighting disease and almost completely ignores the concept of promoting health. The result is that microbial challenges are much more serious than they otherwise need to be. I watched the Andrew Marr show this morning, on which the Chinese ambassador said that so far 2% of those diagnosed with the virus in China had died, and (if I remember correctly), half of those diagnosed had been “cured” and released (which is itself a pretty weird claim, since there is no medical treatment for the virus, which is why people are being isolated in the first place), and the rest were in quarantine.
So we know that 2% died, or put another way, 2% probably had a weak immune system and were susceptible to death from viral infection. But is this really so unusual? My grandfather for example died of a cold, which is also a virus. This was shortly before his 91st birthday. The coroner wrote that the case of death was “old age”, which I think most people would agree was reasonable. But having lived a long and healthy life, I think its fair to say that the real cause of death was age related loss of immunity – not from the virus itself.
As for the immune system: I believe that if only they would immediately put those diagnosed with the corona virus on a high dosage of Vitamin C, which Dr Tomas Levy M.D. (author of the highly recommended book “Vitamin C and Infectious Diseases”) describes as “an absolute anti-viral” we’d be looking at a molehill, not a mountain. Whether one takes a good oral Vitamin C product like our best selling Tapioca Vitamin C, or for those who want absolute maximum absorption, Liposomal Vitamin C, or by the absolute medical gold standard, which is the direct IV (intravenous route) available at Health Fusion Clinic that alone would reduce the death rate to virtually zero. Linus Pauling, who won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry twice, but was then discredited by the establishment for daring to become interested in nutrition, biochemistry and health recommended taking 18g of Vitamin C per day as soon as you get the first signs of a cold or flu, and claimed it could usually be stopped dead in its tracks if you did this. Of course this isn’t going to happen, as mainstream medicine is not interested in building health, it’s dominated by a culture of fighting disease, and in a way that is financially supportive to some of the most powerful institutions in the world: big pharma. Call me Mr Cynical, but that’s my view.
Going back to the immune system: Those who are concerned could (and should) add selenium and zinc for extra measure for further certainty as these nutrients are both involved with preventing viral replication and those with immune system deficienices are notoriously low in these nutrients. Personally, if it were me, I’d take a robust dosage of Antioxidant Supreme which contains zinc and selenium together with all the other most fundamental nutrients needed to keep the immune system in a tip-top state.
It’s also interesting that these pandemics never seem to break out in July. It’s always in winter, and this is at least partly influenced by our low vitamin D levels (along with its sister nutrient K2) at this time of the year. So I’d recommend everyone to take our high strength Vitamin D3 with K2 tablet every day or Liposomal D3 / K2 for those who prefer a highly absorbable liquid, throughout the winter.
Finally, where it comes to anti-virals, I do have to mention the liquid oxygen products which we provide – Oxylift or the extremely similar Oxygen Elements Max, which is basic a rival brand product to Oxylift. From the small amount of research I have seen, conducted by Kappa Laboratories, in Miami Florida, these products also appear to be “absolute anti-microbials”. Here are the test results of Oxylift against 6 harmful micro-organisms over 14 days.
* Note: Please take Oxylift or Oxygen Elements Max at least two hours away from Vitamin C supplements for best results.
I’m not saying the above suggestions are the be all and end all, but the products above do provide a massive umbrella of protection for your immune system, and for your body to fight infection in a healthy and natural way.
