Top COVID Tips On Balancing Immunity & Cytokine Storm
Keeping calm and peaceful is super important at this time. A strong Immune system is directly proportional to how happy and positive we are and really this is the best muscle we can build now a healthy immune response. Flower remedies made from the Indian flowers including Brahmakamal, Lotus and many more are super important thing in boosting our immunity and preventing long term effects of the virus. Adequate timely treatment and rest combined with flower energies, Ayurveda and cytokine storm prevention or treatment is the game changer. This applies to asymptomatic people as well because long-term effects leg scarring in the lungs and cancers can be avoided by these flower energies, Ayurveda and eating fresh organic multicoloured vegetables. Fresh produce and seeds and nuts replenish the Vitamins and minerals including Zinc. 1 banana and 1 lemon a day are highly recommended. Don’t forget to spend an hour in the sun and have fun. Staying healthy is very easy. Your immune system is ancient and the virus is new so you can process it easily and emerge shining and strong.
Cytokine storm is the language of the immune system. This is not the first time we saw the cytokine storm,in the 1918 flu pandemic as well as the SARS outbreak in 2003 we dealt with same thing. Now with the COVID we had seen microthrombi of small clots which are been thrown. So what exactly is happening? Lot of the people have mutations in the PRF1 gene that mean there is something called perforin which is a protein.The moment the virus enters a cell this perforin secreted by the immune cells goes and pokes/perforate the cell and the virus is destroyed.The same thing with the cancer as well. How beautiful is are immune system but sometimes it’s like a snowball which is going down a mountain without control, where the viral load is more and perforin is not able to stop. So its banging it’s head continuously and then we have the Cytokine storm which produces all the complications.
So here the foods which reduce the Cytokine storm and are really important for us at this point. So what is the simple food we all have at home is the Garlic as it has the allicin which is very very important and helpful in reducing the cytokines. So don’t forget for patients they must have garlic in the food.
Vitamin C is super importance for patient. This is both preventive before as well as,if you have the COVID.
Green tea which also reduces the production of the Cytokines again super important especially the interleukin 1 and 6 and we want to monitor the interleukin-1 we want to monitor the interleukin-6,the CRP and ferritin level,to know what’s actually going on with the immune system of patients.
Curcumin: Which is from the Turmeric. Turmeric is alone the most important thing to stop the Cytokine storm(1 teaspoon of turmeric with a pinch of black pepper)
Tea tree oil: This also reduces TNFAlpha and inhaling with some salt turmeric and the tea tree oil really reducer viral load because it is the viral load versus the Immunity and you want to do everything to reduce it.
Sleep: Sleep is super important because it can do everything for you which even a million medicines cannot do and lying on your belly helps the lungs to open up completely again very very important.
Acetylcysteine: Which would prevent you can take it if you’re working with patients or anyone in your family has it or if you already have the COVID
infection is well.
Exercise: Don’t do any exercise . What not to do is very important no exercise of any sort just resting and allowing your body metabolism to stay low.
What should not be eaten: Is white sugar, honey and chocolate as well as absolute no no when you’re actually having the infection.
Vitamin D: It is really important because 90% of us in India they are deficient in Vitamin D. So make sure each of your patients each of your family should have adequate Vitamin D levels. So even if someone is very poor and living in a village make sure they spend at least 1 hour in the sun in the morning and again make sure they eat green leafy vegetables and whole grains and different vegetables.
