Dr. Dale D.C.'s - Coronavirus Update #3
Being Smart and Staying Healthy
Greetings!
Keep up the good work Santa Barbara. Continue to Be Smart, and Be Healthy. So far, our county's Coronavirus statistics are Stellar! Please forward this article to as many people as you can. There is some very important information below and you can help others reduce their risk and, at the same time, hopefully reduce their fear.
Product Updates
With the very high demand for Immune Support, all of my companies are having "back order" issues. I spend a significant amount of time each day figuring out our best alternatives based on what's available. The good news is that I use over 18 different professional companies, so I have a large number of products to draw from. We have very good alternatives in all areas of support and will continue to do our best to keep you supplied.

I have one very new product arriving any day now that is a great choice if someone is having significant lung congestion from any infection. This product is based on a new technology and has seen some impressive results with difficult lung challenges. This product will be available for those in need or those with a past history of lung problems.
Emergency Services: I have already been called on to help out with friends and families of patients who needed emergency interventions. Some of these have been severe persistent cases that were responding very slowly to medical care and some are critical Prevention Programs for those at high risk.

I will continue to provide this service for any of your friends or family as needed. As many of you know we ship daily all over the country, so we can help almost anyone in America.
If you have anyone in your circle that needs immune support or advice, please have them contact our office at 805-687-0533 ASAP.
Prevention is the Key, Be a Strong Host
My patient base is doing a great job of Preventing any serious infections from any source. As you already know, Prevention is critical toward warding off infections. As I wrote in my last newsletter; being a Strong Host is the smart thing to do.

We all have Trillions (approx. 30 - 50 trillion) of bacteria in our body. Research has shown that, on average, the body also carries 5-6 viruses as well, with some Americans having as many as 19.

With all of these "visitors", we can still be very healthy. The key here is how strong we, the host are at keeping the visitors from adversely affecting us. That job is left to our immune system, which is comprised of the healthy bacteria in our gut, the lining of the GI tract, the lymphatic system, lymph nodes, the thymus (which produces T-cells), bone marrow (which produces white blood cells and B-cells/antibodies) and the spleen and liver (which filter the blood).

Taking great care to optimize the function of these tissues is what creates a strong, healthy host. The Lifestyle keys to creating a strong, healthy host are:
  • Getting plenty of good quality sleep. 
  • Eating a high vegetable, moderate protein, blood sugar stabilizing diet that is low in sugars, carbs and milk products. Avoid spikes in blood sugar, which have an immune suppressive affect.
  • Getting your regular exercise. Exercise is very immune stimulating and supportive.
  • Taking a thorough supplement regime including some additional immune products.

Lifestyle actions that help reduce exposing yourself and others.
  • Wash your hands often, especially when coming in contact with surfaces where others have been. 
  • Cover your mouth (using your arm is best) when coughing or sneezing. 
  • Avoid close contact with others who are sick. 
  • Basically, pay attention to surfaces that someone else may have exposed via a cough or sneeze. If you come in contact with these objects, be sure to clean your hands thoroughly afterwards.
Fight Fear with Facts
First and Foremost , for those of us in S.B., the risk of this virus for any one individual is still very, very low. Our County has 32 Confirmed Coronavirus cases as of yesterday. Out of 446,000 people, that comes to 0.007%, or 1 case for every 13,937 county residents! This is a SHOCKINGLY low number!

Some people will argue,"but these are only the confirmed cases, many people have not been tested who may have The Virus". This is true. However, the statistics coming out of every other affected country in the world have these same short comings; many untested cases. This is the same with our Seasonal Flu. These numbers, although they will rise and we most likely will see our first death in SB County, are minuscule when it comes to infections of many kinds.

Even nationally, as our media and "health experts" make this a very scary scenario, there is a critical lack of perspective. Consider this: in the 10 weeks since the first COVID-19 case was confirmed in the U.S., just over 1,000 Americans have died. Most of these were over 70 years old and had chronic health challenges. In that same time, over 1,600 Americans have died due to sleep deprivation that caused an auto accident, most of these were much younger, and those numbers do not include others that were significantly injured by those same accidents. When was the last time we heard of this chronic health problem that continues to worsen annually?

These statistics are from the CDC's Official Website: From Oct. 1, 2019 - March 14, 2020, primarily reflecting the statistics on our Seasonal Flu . In less than 6 months, in the US there have been:

38,000,000 – 54,000,000 (yes that is millions) Flu Illnesses

17,000,000 – 25,000,000 Flu Medical Visits

390,000 – 710,000 Flu Hospitalizations

23,000 – 59,000 Flu Deaths!


These numbers are Huge compared to COVID-19.

Yet it seems like, it feels like, those Americans and their families, affected by that virus, directly impacted by that virus, don't matter. They and the virus we live with all year, don't get the tiniest fraction of attention that the Coronavirus gets.

And this Virus that we live with year in and year out does not have us living in constant fear. It is a bit shocking to me when you look at the facts and then look at how our "experts" and our "officials" have scared us into the oddest behaviors.

Yes, of course we need to respect the Coronavirus as a very powerful virus, in it's ability to take the lives of those over 65 who also have a chronic health problem. " Other things being equal, those over age 70 appear at three times the mortality risk as those age 60 to 69, and those over age 80 at nearly twice the mortality risk of those age 70 to 79. This is a very dangerous virus to that group". However, for infants and children, pregnant women plus our elders, those most commonly affected by the seasonal flu, make up a combined group that is much larger and with a much greater mortality total. Our at risk patients for Coronavirus need a very high level of protection against being exposed to this virus. That is not a fear, that is a fact, and that is something we CAN accomplish.

Please Do Not Live in Fear. Fear is very unhealthy and very dangerous. Be respectful, be smart, don't be scared. Demand facts from your leaders. Fear produces poor decision making, demand more from your leaders. We can live more full lives and, at the same time, dramatically reduce COVID-19 deaths by aggressively protecting the at risk group.


PLEASE BE SURE TO READ THE ARTICLE BELOW BY DAVID KATZ, M.D., A TRULY INTELLIGENT, LOGICAL, BROAD MINDED EXPERT HAS WRITTEN.
The Most Impressive National Article on COVID-19 So Far.
This is a link to a NY Times article by Dr. David L. Katz, written on March 20th. This is by far the most intelligent article by a medical professional that I have seen to date. I am 100% confident that if we had followed Dr. Katz's approach, hundreds of American lives would have been saved as well as the economic crisis that is the by-product of a flawed approach to COVID-19, rather than the virus itself.
Foundational Nutrition for Immune Health
Having a strong healthy foundation is critical to health as it is to most things. Below are three key products that are foundational and provide generalized immune support through their contribution to all tissues in the body.

Primal Multi
Primal Multi is a first-of-its-kind multivitamin, mineral and phytonutrient blend specifically formulated to mimic the nutrient intakes found in an optimal evolutionary human diet. The ingredients in Primal Multi™ have been sourced to be naturally occurring and bio-identical. A broad spectrum of high quality vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients are critical to the overall health of your immune system. Don't have enough zinc, or vitamin A, or vitamin C and your immune systems potential will be compromised. Learn More

Omega Monopure
The importance of Omega-3 Fatty Acids EPA and DHA to our health can’t be stressed enough. High quality fish oil is one of the most critical health enhancing supplements one can take.  This single product, when taken at the right dosage, can save more lives than any other product . Regarding your immune health , high levels of EPA and DHA greatly enhance the health of every cell membrane. This improves both the improved transport of all other nutrients into your cells as well as the communication that is essential for optimal immune function from one cell to another. Learn More

RelaxMax
RelaxMax is an exciting product in the form of a cherry-flavored powdered drink mix. Containing a synergistic blend of ingredients, the formula aims to promote a calm, relaxed physiological and emotional state. RelaxMax also supports the long-term health of nerve cells, healthy blood pressure and the health of cell membranes, which is critical to many cellular functions.  Learn More
If you know a friend or family member that would like to consult with me on strengthening their immune resilience, please have them call the front desk at 805-687-0533 to schedule either an in-person appointment or phone consult.
Immune Protocols and Options
Important Note re: product availability. If we and the company are out of stock of any of the below, we will have back ups available with directions of how to take that product effectively..

A new batch of Humacel takes them weeks to finish with quality and safety testing being a very complex and time intensive process. Therefore we may have to put a 2 bottle purchase limit in place at times.

We have been overstocking on all products when they are available. Most importantly, I have many other anti-viral products on hand that are also excellent, so we will have other protocols for when we run out of anything.

Please note: below I have given you basic options and add-ons if you feel the need or fall into specific categories. If you have additional questions regarding any of this please call the office and they will get you an answer ASAP.

Some New Key Components for most patients:
Vit. D is always important when it comes to our Immune System and almost all of our bodily systems. Taking 1 D3 5000 per day is a sufficient dose, and for those over 40 K2D3 is preferable for other key benefits for our cardio-vascular and bone health.

At the onset of an infection it is beneficial to ramp up on Vit. D3 5000, by taking 3, 3 times per day for 4 days. Vit. D should always be taken with food.

Melatonin, for all patients over 50. The most beneficial article I have read since this outbreak was a very complex article based on much research following the SARS and MERS Coronavirus outbreaks. It very specifically outlined the pathways that clarified how Melatonin has a inhibitive affect on the severity of the viruses ability to impact us.

This has also been associated with the dramatically different levels of Melatonin as we age. Younger children can make up to 10x's the amount of melatonin each night that older healthy adults. Our production of Melatonin gets lower and lower as we age.

The benefit of melatonin in this situation is NOT related to improved sleep. It is a very specific pathway that helps our immune system in this battle and other immune battles.

Therefore I am recommending our 3 mg. capsule for all patients over 50 , taken at dinner or just before bed. I have taken Melatonin myself for many years now.

Additional Melatonin note: I recently listened to a Podcast for Medical Nerds, that was an interview with the top sleep expert possibly in the world. He was speaking about Melatonin and mentioned that the quality of Melatonin products in retail stores has been shown to vary tremendously. This is very common in retail nutritional products that have been tested. He stated that their levels have been shown to be 84% below what was listed and as much as 400% greater than what was listed. The good news is that our professional line product companies are very impressive in their quality control standards and have shown to be very reliable when analyzed.

My Standard Prevention program includes: 

  • Humacel: 2-3 caps upon arising 
  • Immune Balancing Complex: 2-3 caps with breakfast 
  • IG-26: 2-3 caps at breakfast
  • Vit. D5000 or K2D3 5000, 1 per day.
  • Over age 50, 1 3mg. Melatonin capsule at dinner or before bed.

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. 

Humacel is a patented anti-viral product that I have used for many years with many, many patients. Click Here for Humacel Product Information

See my notes on MonoLaurin and Silvercillin below as these can be used in place of Humacel when needed.

Immune Balancing Complex is a combination of immune supportive vitamins, glandulars and herbs, designed to support your immune system in fighting infections of all kinds. Click Here for Immune Balancing Product Information

IG-26 is a natural anti-bacterial formula rich in powerful antibodies.  Click Here for IG26 Product Information

Note : Although viruses do not respond to anti-bacterial formulas, viral infections disrupt our microbiome. This decreases our immune resistance, making a subsequent bacterial infection more likely, and demands more of our immune system's overall ability to respond to all infections.

Note #2: I use our water-based Silvercillin Liquid on a daily basis, swishing, gargling and swallowing a teaspoon or two, 1 - 2 x's per day. This is quite effective at killing many viruses and bacteria on contact. It also comes in a spray bottle.

Note #3: I take at least a preventative dose of Humacel every day of the year, first thing in the morning as a precaution.

Increased anti-viral preventative options:
If you want additional anti-viral/bacterial immune support, choose one of these:
  • MonoLaurin is a specific anti-viral extract of coconut that is used to fight many strong viruses. For prevention, take 1 cap at breakfast, or 1 cap at breakfast and dinner. Click Here for MonoLaurin Product Information
  • Silvercillin is a highly effective antimicrobial composed of pure silver complexed with purified water. Silvercillin utilizes a technological breakthrough allowing for the production of a silver particle small enough to enter a single red blood cell, enabling the silver to travel through capillaries, the tiniest blood vessels in the body, and inactivate viruses at the cellular level. Click Here for Silvercillin Product Tech-Sheet

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. 
  • Immune Balancing Complex: 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

Additional support for strong viruses or older and compromised individuals either:

  • MonoLaurin: 1 cap per meal, or
  • Silvercillin: 2 teaspoons, 3x's per day. Swish, Gargle deeply and swallow. 

If you are not noticing improvement within the first 4 days, call the office and let them know what your primary symptoms are. as We have many other immune products that may be necessary for you.  If necessary, we can set up a phone consult.

Children : The three best products for children, both preventatively and for treatment, are Humacel, Congplex Chewable, ImmunoBerry Liquid and Silvercillin. 

Congaplex Chewable is similar to Immune Balancing Complex, and you can literally have kids take some everyday. They like the taste of it also.

Children under 4 years
  • Congaplex Chewable 1-2 tabs/day, 2 x's 2 if active infection.
Children ages 4-8
  • Congaplex Chewable 2-4 tabs/day,2 x's per day if active infection
  • Humacel (if fever) 1-2 capsules, 2x/day (empty stomach)
Children ages 9-12 (Over 12 follow adult protocols above)
  • Immune Balancing ComplexWith food: 2-3 per day, if active infection 2 capsules, 3x/day,
  • Humacel (if fever) 3 capsule, 2x/day (empty stomach).

If we are out of Humacel or you want additional support, add in ImmunoBerry at 10 - 20 drops, 1 - 3x's per day (depending on the size of your child and the severity of symptoms. Or Silvercillin at a half teaspoon 1-3x's per day
