The COVID-19 pandemic has changed a lot of our lives and put many of us in fear. "If you are prepared, you shall not fear". How do we prepare for this epidemic? The Covid-19 virus is coming to us sometime soon. How we prepare for it will determine how much it will affect each of us. I am not talking about your supply of toilet paper. What I am saying is that our immune systems need to be strengthen to make the exposure to the Corona virus less harmful to our health. The virus seems to more significantly affect people over 70 years old and those with other health problems like a weakened immune system. Each of us need to strengthen our immune systems. Any virus will take advantage of a weakened immune system whatever age we may be. Note that we are not trying to kill the virus but we are strengthening the immune system which will naturally do that job. Here are some simple ways to have a strong resistant immune system that will fight the virus:

1. Get plenty of quality sleep (8 hours)
2. Avoid eating processed sugar. It lowers your white blood cell's ability to fight the virus.
3. Exercise and get sunshine. It makes Vitamin D and reduces stress which strengthens your immune system.
4. Have proper nutrition to build your immune system. That means eating a balanced diet and also supplementing with immune enhancing supplements.
In our office, we have the following recommendation of supplements that come from Optimal Health Systems (OHS). These supplements are whole foods that have been predigested with enzymes which make them up to 300% more bio-available. That means that OHS supplements are more effective than most other supplements so that your body is able to utilize their nutrition more effectively.
There are a number of immune enhancing supplements that we have for you. The Natural Z Pack combines a number of these into one package that makes it convenient and less expensive. I will share information about how the Natural Z Pack can help strengthen our immune system in another post.
Healthfully Yours,
Dr Lloyd Nelson

I just got back from Phoenix, Arizona where I attended a Brimhall Homecoming Seminar. I learned a lot more about nutrition. Did you know that Melatonin has receptor sites on every cell in our bodies and that it affects every function within the cells? There are at least 13 things besides sleep that Melatonin can help with from Diabetic Retinopathy, to Hypertension to Pain Relief. I also had the opportunity to talk more with Dr Mark Harris about genetic SNPs. He was the instructor at the seminar in Las Vegas that I attended in September where I learned to test for these genetic defects and use nutrition to to effect epigenic changes to get the body working properly. We also learned more about Gut Flora and how it can make us crave the foods that we should avoid. We now have a program to help us change the bacterial gut flora so we can stop craving the bad foods and change habits so we can loose weight and become healthy! I am excited to be back in my office to help people with the new things I have learned.
