Collection: Recovery Stage

In the Recovery Stage, your body may still have quite a bit of lingering inflammation and oxidative stress so the focus is on bringing your levels back to normal. Raised levels can result in fatigue and the possibility of slipping back into the Inflammation Stage. This will go a long way in ensuring the best possible outcome and a speedy Recovery Stage.   

Glutathione can be a great aid in the Recovery Stage as it is the most powerful antioxidant in the body, a cell energizer while not being a stimulant, and a potent detoxifier

Curcumin, omega 3 fish oil and SPM's help reduce inflammation and repair tissue damage leftover from the viral infection.

In the Recovery Stage, please do not take anything that might 'boost' the immune system - this includes medicinal mushrooms, Echinacea and certain botanicals, unless under the strict guidance of your healthcare practitioner. Immune Active, Ultra Potent-C, vitamin C, zincvitamin D3, glutathione, NAC are safe to use through all The 4 Stages of COVID.

In the Recovery Stage, you can take therapeutic dosages back to normal doses, always under the guidance of your healthcare practitioner.

Your foundation should always be your multivit and omega 3 fish oil. Omega 3 is very useful now to ensure your inflammation levels are as normal as possible before the virus finds you. It also acts as a blood thinner which could be useful for micro-coagulation that could potentially happen in the lungs during the Inflammation Phase.
