Did you know that over 80 percent of your immune system is housed in your gut? The immune system comprises a complex network of organs, vessels, cells, and proteins. The skin and mucosal surfaces create a mechanical and functional barriers to protect against and eliminate environmental debris and foreign invaders. There are many myths on how to naturally strengthen your immune system which are compromised every day by stress, environment, lifestyles, medications, gut dysbiosis and many things we regularly eat.
Healthy lifestyle factors, including a diversified diet, limited consumption of processed and refined foods, and consumption of adequate dietary fiber, may all promote a healthy microbiomes. Foods and nutrients that potentially boost immune function also tend to promote gut health, once toxins are removed. For example, consuming a diverse array of fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory nutrients, and phytochemicals may reduce oxidative stress, support the liver to promote efficient biotransformation and continued detoxification, and boost overall immune system function.

Post-Covid conditions are being referred to by a wide range of names, including "Long Covid", post-acute Covid-19, and more. The term I prefer as it is used in active research is Post-Acute Sequalae of COV-19 Syndrome, or (PASCS).
About ten months ago, I introduced a new treatment program for those suffering from PASCS having personally experienced this condition. A syndrome - any syndrome, is a collection of symptoms, in any order or number, that is determined to result from a particular cause, toxin, or illness. In recent surveys nearly 100 different long-term symptoms have been reported weeks and even months after infection.

I am now scheduling PASCS clients for the second week in July for initial in-person assessments and follow up visits via tele-health.
One in four people are genetically susceptible to biotoxins or mold sensitivity. Serious illness can develop is left untreated or treated improperly.
Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS) occurs when the body’s immune system becomes hyperattentive to biotoxins or neurotoxin exposure.
Common exposure risks for CIRS:
Ingestion (Bacteria, Ciguatera)
Infection (Ticks or Spider bites)
Inhalation (VOCs, Water damaged buildings) and;
Contamination (Fungus, Toxic water)
