This is the time to bolster your immune defences, fill 3/4 of your plate with rainbow plant food 3 times a day, top up your tissue reserves of key nutrients, sleep well, exercise, keep inflammation, oxidative stress, blood sugar, blood pressure and weight within normal ranges. It is also the time to prime your immune system for a possible viral infection.
Your immune system has security guards and police. As a virus enters your bloodstream, the security guards detect it and call the police. Research is showing that SarsCoV-2 can sneak past the security guards in some instances which why some people only develop symptoms of infection up to 14 days after being exposed to the virus. Medicinal mushrooms (AHCC and ImmuCore) help boost the number of security guards and keep them on high alert for viral invaders.
Note: You should only 'prime' your immune system with medicinal mushrooms in the Prevention and Infection Stage. Please read the precautions before starting and check with your healthcare practitioner before starting any new supplement.

Your foundation should always be your multivit and omega 3 fish oil. Omega 3 is very useful now to ensure your inflammation levels are as normal as possible before the virus finds you. It also acts as a blood thinner which could be useful for micro-coagulation that could potentially happen in the lungs during the Inflammation Phase.
