This is my 9th Newsletter on Coronavirus and I am sorry to say that
we are going backwards Santa Barbara and are in danger of reversing our opening.
So,
please do me a favor and forward this article to as many people as you can.
There is very important and updated information below.
By sharing this you can help others reduce their risk and at the same time, reduce their fear, and hopefully keep Santa Barbara open for business.
Please see more specific information below regarding the situation in Santa Barbara. The good news is that I continue to be very proud of my patients. With their great efforts of taking care of themselves,
I have seen no significant infections in my existing patients since early January!
Thanks to my caring patients that referred friends or loved ones,
I have been fortunate to assist 5 Covid 19 patients who have responded to our nutritional support in extremely rapid fashion.
Even I have been surprised how quickly their recoveries have been. If you know someone who is sick and wants immune help, please have them call the office ASAP. The sooner they get proper support the better off they will be.
This is my 36 Years in Practice Anniversary and my 34 practicing in Santa Barbara!
I am fortunate and proud to say I have patients in SB who have continued to be patients since the first few months that I moved here. I am fortunate to have found such a fulfilling career and wonderful group of patients to care for. Thank You!!

We have
Humacel
in stock
and plenty of it. So, if you want to be prepared come and get it! Our only Immune product that is still on backorder is Immune Balancing Complex and we have no concrete date on when it will be back. We are using
Herbal Biotic
as the replacement, which is an exceptional product that I have used for 19 years.
I have had to use our new product,
MuSolve, now in 6 persistent lung infections, 4 being new patients who called needing help fighting the Coronavirus. So far it has been extremely impressive
, getting dramatic results within 5 days that were confirmed with measured Oxygen impro
vements. It is a sophisticated product specifically for someone having significant lung congestion from any infection, or difficulty breathing. In my 36 years of nutritional practice I have never s
een any lung product come close to the results of MuSolve. This product is now available for those in need or those with a past history of lung problems.
My Current Prevention Program:
- Humacel: 2-3 caps upon arising. If Humacel is on Back Order, then CompliVir at the same dosage.
- Herbal Biotic: 2-3 caps with breakfast
- IG-26: 2-3 caps at breakfast
- Vit. D5000 or K2D3 5000, 1 per day.
Over Age 50, Add:
- Melatonin capsule (3mg) at dinner or before bed.
- Stellar C: 1 lunch and 1 dinner.
If you are someone who gets sick often or more severely, use our powder version of IG-26 and take 2 scoops per day. This is very effective at decreasing infection frequency and severity.
My Active Viral Infection Protocol
The key here is to
be prepared
, have these on hand and ramp up as soon as you feel something coming on.
- Humacel: 3 caps, 3x’s per day away from food. Upon arising, mid-morning and late in the day. If we are out of Humacel the best back up is CompliVir at the same dosage as Humacel.
- Herbal Biotic: 4 caps, 3x’s per day with food, for 4 days then 3, 3x’s per day.
- IG-26: 2 caps, 3x’s per day
If Covid-19 is even suspected, add in QuercisorbSR (2 breakfast, 2 dinner), this product can be very beneficial for fighting Cytokine storms and please contact me right away so I can monitor your progress via text images of your Oxygen levels.
If compromised breathing, or severe cough add in MuSolve (2 upon arising and 2 late afternoon).

Please Don't Wear Masks......
|
|
When:
- you are driving in your car alone, or with someone you have regularly been exposed to (like your spouse).
- you are exercising, or going for a walk outdoors.
- you are working in your yard alone or with a family member you are living with.
- you are in your house.
- you are parked on the side of the road looking at a beautiful sunset and no one is near you.
- you are outdoors eating or having a glass of wine with friends and you are properly distancing.
Research has shown that your Oxygen levels are compromised if you have a mask on for an extended period of time and you are breathing in higher levels of Carbon Dioxide. Neither of these situations are ideal.
Please be aware, the experts agree that the primary purpose of wearing masks is to decrease the risk of you infecting someone else.
It is considered less effective at reducing your risk of exposure if you you are exposed in a meaningful way. It does not prevent viral transmission 100% in either instance, it reduces the transmission.
Exceptions to Not Wearing a Mask:
If you are exercising outdoors, just make sure you are not exercising right next to or running directly behind someone (your risk) or in front of someone (their risk).
If you are in your house and you have guests, and can't keep a very safe distance.
If you are taking an indoor exercise class, with other people in the same room, unless the room is very, very well ventilated I would recommend against it, rather than exercising with a mask on. Find an outdoor exercise class for now, keep a proper distance and exercise without a mask. Or take a class via Zoom.
The key regarding airborne exposure
, which is by far the greatest cause of getting Covid 19, is to not end up in a room for an extended period of time with someone who could be carrying the virus and does not have a mask on. Outdoors is still far safer, but not if people near you are shouting, speaking loudly, singing, coughing or sneezing! Masks are critical in this situation and may not even be enough to protect you, or them from you.
Please review the information below our graphs in the next article regarding other critical information.

COVID-19 and Santa Barbara: Critical Keys and Facts
|
|
The numbers for this Edition are based on the 6.29.20 Public Health Dept. report.
Santa Barbara County has seen a sharp increase in virtually all Coronavirus-related statistics over the past weeks. Daily New Cases, %-Positive Tests, Hospitalizations, ICU Beds and Deaths have all increased significantly since my last update on May 25th, so let's have a look at the numbers.
- South County is currently averaging 16.2 new cases per day, up from 1.2 in my last update. That's a 1,250% increase.
- North County is averaging 39.6 new cases per day (up from 7.1 a month ago), giving us a 458% increase.
- Test results are coming back positive 5.7% of the time, a significant jump over the 1.9% average positive rate we saw on May 25th.
- To Date, 1,850 county residents have tested positive (prison excluded), a 223% increase over the 573 positive cases from a month ago.
- There are currently 60 patients hospitalized, with 21 in the ICU. A month ago we had about half that: 27 hospitalizations with 10 in the ICU.
To better illustrate these trends, please see the graphs below.

Critical Key #1
:
This is a Dangerous Virus for a small percentage of our population,
those with chronic health challenges.
This Virus is minimally dangerous for a large percentage of our population
, most of those with no chronic health problems.
Low Risk vs. High Risk:
We have 2 very distinct risk groups and this is our key. Those over 65 comprise about 12.5% of the total population, and the group most at risk is only portion of that. However, this age group makes up 80% of the deaths from Covid-19. If we include our 55 and over age group
with chronic health problems
then we have 92% of U.S. Covid-19 deaths.
The Key to minimizing deaths and re-closure is the Protection of individuals that are most at risk
. We know who these individuals are. The are mostly over 65 and in the vast majority of cases have at least one chronic health condition, often two or more. The majority being lung or heart issues, but pretty much any chronic health condition increases an individuals risk, even for the young.
From the beginning, this at risk group should have been where we, as a nation, directed 95% of our focus
. My personal opinion since the beginning on this issue is that
had
our leaders across the board, put the
time,
attention and resources
on this group we would have had far less deaths and we could have avoided shutting down our economy.
It is far easier for everyone to focus on a small group (12.5%) that is at high risk, rather than trying to manage a much larger group, meaning everyone. Especially when most of the much larger group are at very low to zero risk of dying from the Virus.

Summer cleansing in this context is all about your body and mind, not your home or closets. It is a one to two week process of cleansing the body of biochemical toxins. This type of cleanse is referred to as Biochemical Detoxification. Many of my patients over the last 36 years have found this process simple and rewarding.
Why cleanse?
The diversity and quantity of biochemical toxins found in the bodies of almost all Americans are shocking. Literally tens of thousands of man-made chemicals can be found. A very short list includes: lead, mercury, DDT and many other pesticides, PCBs, and perchlorate (a toxic component of rocket fuel). Many toxins originate in all kinds of household products and include chemicals from plastics, flame retardants, cigarette smoke, carpets, and plywood glues. Outside, we are exposed to exhaust fumes along with the byproducts that escape our factories.
Besides the toxins we breathe, eat or drink, there are many that are created in our own bodies everyday that are poisonous and need to be processed.
The problem
is that our bodies’ detoxification systems can only do so much in a 24-hour period, if they are fully functional in the first place. When we can’t process all the chemicals, they are stored in many different cells of our bodies, especially fat cells. Some of these chemicals pose well-documented disease risks. For others, there is much more research to be done. Most, if not all, of these chemicals can be found in each and every one of us.
The seasonal solution
to this problem is a 7–14 day cleanse (length of time varies depending on the individual). A cleanse will support your body’s detoxification pathways, decreasing your toxic burden.
This is also an excellent way of interrupting any bad dietary habits that have developed over time, and for most people will result in some weight loss.
The cleanse is quite simple. It involves replacing two meals a day with a drink that is specifically designed to support your detoxification pathways and “cleanse” your body of biochemical toxins, and at the same time serve as a meal. Your third meal is a feast of very healthy foods. Snacking on fresh fruits and raw veggies between meals is fine.
If you are ready to feel better, and be cleaner and healthier, just let me know. We will set you up with everything you need, including specific instructions and you’ll be ready to go!

I am very hopeful that one outcome of this catastrophe is that our country shifts from a focus of treating disease to Preventing Disease, Creating Health and Very Strong Hosts.
Additionally, I am very optimistic that this catastrophe will move our federal government to return to the investment into a national pandemic branch of the public health department that the most successful countries had in place when this crisis began.
This could be the beginning of a major positive change for our country that will improve the quality of life for many, save many lives, and save many national resources that can be used for other important causes.
