Surviving Covid-19 this Winter

WHAT CAN I DO TO TAKE CARE OF MYSELF AND MY FAMILY IN THESE UNPRECEDENTED TIMES

 

Calming the panic and easing our fear is vital to keep our immune system strong during the Covid 19 pandemic and during the winter months ahead.

Remember to breathe deeply and exhale whenever anxiety or panic levels rise.

Here are a few tips to boost your immune system and keep your body healthy.

  1. Eat whole foods packed with nutrients โ€“ your immune system is counting on you to give it all the nutrients it needs to function at its best.
  2. Avoid sugars, refined starches and processed foods which create acidity and weaken the immune system
  3. Maintain an alkaline PH balance of 7.5 โ€“ this will enable the body to stay healthy, absorb efficiently and expel toxic waste.
  4. Bacteria and viruses do NOT thrive in an alkaline environment ,Coral Calcium Sachets are highly effective for reducing acidity.
  5. Keep hydrated โ€“ drinking 1-2 litres of filtered pure water daily is important for circulation , detoxification and energy.
  6. Supplement with a high quality multivitamin to ensure your body is getting the nutrients it needs.
  7. Also Include, Buffered Vitamin Cย  3000-5000 mg Daily , Vitamin D3 2000-5000 iu Daily, Zinc 20 mg Daily
  8. Gut health means immune health- Eat or drink fermented foods like kombucha, kefir or unsweetened plain full cream yoghurt. Consider a good probiotic if you donโ€™t favour these foods .
  9. Olive Leaf Extract is also a great Natural Supplement, now available as a mouth spray to help Kill Viruses and Bacteria.
  10. โ€ข ๐‚๐ฎ๐ซ๐œ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ข๐ง, a component of turmeric, has been used as a medicinal and herbal supplement and remedy for centuries. Modern studies have also tested its validity, and shown it to exhibit antiviral properties.
    โ€ข Specific compounds in ๐†๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ž๐ซ have been found to inhibit viral replication and stop viruses from accessing host cells.
    โ€ข ๐‚๐ข๐ง๐ง๐š๐ฆ๐จ๐ง is known to protect against infection, thanks to its antiviral properties.
    โ€ข The antiviral properties of ๐๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ค ๐๐ž๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ work to protect the immune system, and strengthen natural defences against virus-producing foreign invaders.
    The Golden Life Blend brings each of these 4 antiviral & antibacterial ingredients together in one powerful Immune Boosting Blend.

 

REMEMBER THAT SELF-CARE IS VITAL IN THESE CHALLENGING TIMES

 

 

Here are some practical ways to take care of yourself and your family.

 

  • Adequate sleep 7-8 hours keeps the immune system strong
  • Keep the body moving with moderate exercise daily
  • Limit watching TV news and cell phone use. Constant monitoring of the news will keep anxiety levels high.
  • Read a good novel, sit in the sun and listen to calming music
  • Mindfulness is calming- try some form meditation which is calming for the nervous system

 

Keep safe, stay home and maintain good hygiene practices.

Use the time to connect with friends and family by zoom or other online platforms

Become a helper to those that are struggling and living in isolation.

Be Kind.

WE WILL SURVIVE THIS PANDEMIC TOGETHER WITH PATIENCE,TRUST AND SELF-CARE…

How do I care for someone with Covid 19 symptoms at home?

Take note of these practical tips if someone in your household suspects they have coronavirus, or are waiting for test results, or have tested positive with mild symptoms.

  • Assign one person who is in good health to be the carer.
  • Isolate the patient for 14 days in a well ventilated room
  • Monitor the symptoms and take the temperature twice daily
  • Use separate linen and utensils for the patient
  • Wash the patients clothes, bed linen and towels separately at 60-90 degrees and dry thoroughly
  • Disinfect surfaces in the bedroom and bathroom daily and after bathroom use if it is a shared space.
  • Double bag waste and store for 5 days before disposal

If symptoms persist after 7 days get help from a healthcare provider or call the coronavirus health line โ€“ 021 9284102 for advice

Furthermore, get to know the most common symptoms , take practical steps to build your immune system and learn how to treat the patient if the need arises.

Symptoms can include a new continuous cough, fever, shortness of breath when moving around, loss of appetite , taste and smell.

If you have been diagnosed or have symptoms but canโ€™t get tested- ย the followingย  rules will apply.ย  STAY home for 14 days, STAY calm, STAY in touch with friends and family by phone or video call.ย  AVOID ย visitors or visiting, public transport, work and shopping.

Know the difference between Isolation and Quarantine.

Isolation is when you have tested positive or have symptoms โ€“ you need to avoid contact with people for 14 days

Qurantine is when you have been exposed to someone with the virus even if you donโ€™t have symptoms. The rules are the same ; avoid contact with people for 14 days.

Eat healthy meals, drink water (Hydrate) , sleep well and stay active.

Supplement with Vitamin D3 , Vitamin C, Zinc and Olive leaf tincture.

Take Panado for fever and pain

Drink warm water with lemon and honey

Gargle with warm salt waterย daily and steam with eucalyptus oil to improve breathing.

Avoid steroids and prescriptionย  drugs mentioned on social media unless advised by medical staff in hospital.
