We all know that COVID-19 is present in our community and across the country. We now realize that for many, the lifestyle disruptions and stresses of our quarantine and shelter-in- place experiences may also be adversley affecting our immune systems.
The pandemic has forced upon us, without preparation, the need to establish entirely new lifestyle routines. And for many, the quarantine lifestyle is producing increases in blood sugar and inflammation – elevating their COVID-19 associated risks.
It is increasingly clear that a robust initial immune response appears to be the key to mild or asymptomatic (symptom-free) infection. This is where the Integrative, holistic approach to optimize physiology, excels.
The pandemic of 2020 has highlighted the importance of living a healthy lifestyle. Never before has it been more important to optimize your sleep, nutrition and stress management. Research has clearly demonstrated that there are numerous modifiable risk factors that can play a role in illness prevention as well as severity of illness.
While there are no definitive treatments for COVID-19 the benefits of simple, nutritional and lifestyle interventions on supporting immunity are well established. If you are on the front lines, or simply concerned about your exposure risk, please consider enrolling in my Immune Optimization Program.
We will work together to identify your current risk factors. This will be accomplished through a COVID specific Lifestyle questionaiire along with a home based blood testing program that looks at several important inflammatory blood markers (this testing kit will be mailed to your home and can be done with a simple finger stick!). Based upon this information, I will develop for you a customized nutrition plan and supplement program that lowers your inflammation and boosts your immunity.
