How we are looking after ourselves

Published: Sat, 04/11/20

After my last email I was delighted to receive so many inspiring replies. Here I share some of the uplifting responses:

From Paul: I am a homeopathic practitioner with 31 years of experience and the right remedies are both protective and curative. I would add elderberry syrup and colloidal silver to the list at the first signs of illness.

From Barbara, (Age 80)

I cook with Turmeric whole as well as with ginger and garlic.

and I am taking Vit C and D with K2. Zinc and Astragalus as well.

I am Praying more than usual, meditating (hard for me) and QiGong as my exercise. If I miss for a day or two I notice...

Breathing properly is so important...

I am also doing my daily Qi Gong specific for keeping the immune system strong.

Anti-Viral properties of various herbs

Ayurveda and Covid 19

Due to the Covid-19 spread, I took some time to research specific anti-viral properties of Haritaki, Neem and Turmeric, to help you understand how various herbal supplements provide assistance in these circumstances.

Haritaki

I found a substantial amount of research into the anti-viral properties of Haritaki. 7 different studies at universities indicate that Haritaki reduces the impact of viruses on the immune system by strengthening the liver.

Neem

Research indicates that it is an effective prevention of viruses, but not a cure. The research indicates the Neem inhibits some of the DNA of the hepatitis B virus.

Turmeric

Research shows that turmeric showed antiviral properties against several viruses, including dengue virus and hepatitis C virus, among others.

Vitamin D

A number of doctors have advised me, without my prompting, to take Vitamin D. Medical study groups, such as Healthline, recommend Vitamin D as the #1 supplement to take.

Yes, I am wearing a mask when I go out.

The city where I live is under a mandatory order to wear masks and avoid being fined $1,000 and/or 90 days in jail.
