We’ve learned in previous pandemics that viruses spread from continent to continent, and we’re seeing the Coronavirus do just that. Take the following tips to protect you and your family:
- Avoid going in public if at all possible.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands.
- Wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
- Avoid traveling and using public transportation if at all possible.
- Keep packaged wipes with you to clean hands or surfaces that you must touch.
- Keep hand sanitizer in your car or on your person and use it after being out in public.
- Consider buying N95 masks to keep on hand.
- Natural antivirals are unproven, but may be effective: oregano oil with standardized cavracol, garlic, cinnamon with cinnaminoids, licorice capsules with glycyrrhizin, silver, iodine, vitamin C, probiotics. Do your homework as not all herbals/ vitamins are created equal.
- Remember that approximately 70% of the immune system is in the gut. Consider eating cultured vegetables such as kimchi, and drinking cultured beverages such as kefir and take a quality probiotic.
- Lysol has demonstrated some effectiveness similar to the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) on hard, non-porous surfaces. Example of a product that kills SARS related Coronavirus – Hard to Find Lysol Citrus Scent Antibacterial Kitchen Cleaner II – (must include the II on the end).You can shop for alternate products that state “virucidal” NOT “antibacterials.”
- Buy an emergency food supply to keep on hand in the event of a local or national quarantine.
I’m going to buy hand sanitizer and oregano oil.
