If You Get COVID 19: Optimize Immune System (Vitamin D, Monoclonal Antibodies, NAC, Quercetin, etc.)

​

Professor Roger Seheult, MD gives practical strategies if you test positive for COVID-19 (or are in contact with someone who tests positive) including:

• Use of a pulse oximeter at home to monitor oxygen saturation
• Who qualifies for monoclonal antibodies (bamlanivimab, casirivimab, and imdevimab from Lily and Regeneron)?
• Vitamins that may boost immune function: Vitamin D, NAC, Vitamin C, Quercetin, Zinc
• The importance of adequate sleep (Melatonin discussed)
• Core body temperature elevation (the data on hydrotherapy and sauna use)
• Isolation strategies at home: ventilation, HEPA filtration, mask-wearing

Roger Seheult, MD is the co-founder and lead professor at https://www.medcram.com
He is an Associate Professor at the University of California, Riverside School of Medicine and Assistant Prof. at Loma Linda University School of Medicine.
