You can increase dosages to therapeutic levels but always under the guidance of your healthcare practitioner.
Along with the Prevention Stage, here's where you can boost your immune system using medicinal mushrooms as long as you don't have an overactive immune system or an autoimmune condition.

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 Stage.
