Follow the basics!

 Well it has been awhile since we updated the blog. Fighting to keep ourselves and families healthy these past 6 months has been a challenge. The most important thing we can stress is to maintain social distancing and make sure you take D3 vitamin daily. Studies show over 90% of fatality from Covid 19 and it's variants were folks with D3 deficiencies. A great booster for absorption of D3 is Zinc. We also recommend adding that to your daily diet. 

D3 will not prevent you from contracting Covid 19 but there is no need to panic. Using common sense and routine ritual should keep you safe.  

When in public, wear a mask - Not a loose fitting piece of cloth or a cheap disposable. Invest in a N95 mask that can better protect you from virus particles.  There was a big debate on the size of the virus particle versus the filtration ability of the mask, however, the virus particle is almost always attached to some other particle which actually makes it too large to pass thru the filter.  Confused?  Read this article from USA Today. Fact check: N95 filters are not too large to stop COVID-19 particles (usatoday.com)

Wash your hands frequently - This really is something we all have gotten away from over the years. Your hands bring everything you touch to your face! Carry hand wipes if you have no access to soap and water. Choose a wipe that is 75% or more alcohol which kills 99.7% of germs, virus or bacteria.

Eat at home - This does not mean you cannot support your local restaurants. Most establishments have carryout or curbside pickup! Please do not stop supporting small business, just practice good hygiene when dealing with them!  Re-plate the food from the take out container and wash your hands before you eat. It really is that simple! 

Get outside in the fresh air and sun - Avoid crowded venues but do take a walk, or sit outside your home. Remember the sun is the best provider of natural Vitamin D. 

Take daily supplements - Beyond the D3 and Zinc, add Vitamin C and melatonin to your diet. Do vitamin D, zinc, and other supplements help prevent COVID-19 or hasten healing? - Harvard Health

Routine Routine Routine - This is perhaps the hardest part!  Get up, take your supplements, wash those hands and avoid touching your mouth or mask when you wear one!  And... REPEAT! 

Stay healthy!
