Conquering Covidity the natural way | As a Naturopathic practitioner and Herbalist, I often get asked about how I would approach getting Covid 19. Like many people who go through a typical institutionalised education process, I too was subject to dogma and indoctrination, which imbued in me the belief that so-called western or mainstream medicine, the kind that is largely driven by pharmaceutical companies and their profit margin, was the most advanced form of medicine available, because indeed, we are supposedly on the cutting edge of progression, human evolution, and technological advancement. Or at least, that is what my education / indoctrination had led me to believe for the first 30 years of my life. My mother used to tell me that I was lucky to be brought up in a home where access to doctors and medical treatment was never an issue, and like many, I put unquestionable amounts of faith into western medicine and the breed of doctors and allopathic practitioners that came from University based medical schools. To this very day, my immediate family still believe in the virtues of modern / western medicine. For a great proportion of my life, I believed that mainstream medicine is the dominant and original form of medicine. However, this is untrue. In fact, natural based medicines are the majority of medicine world wide. In fact, mainstream / western medicine only originated in the last century, specifically after the second World War. Before then, what we consider as scientific medicine, did not exist. What most people think of as modern medicine, revolves around hospitals and pharmaceutical treatments. This does not include surgery, which is a practice that goes back thousands of years, and is included in all alternative systems of medicine. Surgery benefitted from some of the results of western medicine, such as anaesthetic, but surgical treatments have been a practice that has ensued for thousands of years.
How does it financially benefit the Modern Medical Industry to have only healthy people about?
The answer is simple:
It does not benefit them at all. A healthy population is of absolutely no benefit to Modern Medical Industry and the big pharmaceutical companies. Their focus is disease, not health. Indeed, the Modern Industrial Medical system, also henceforth referenced as “Big Pharma” are in business with disease. A healthy person/population does not make them money.
To be fair, there are useful aspects of the Modern Industrial Medical system, and many good people within that system. Some of the pharmaceuticals are useful, such as anaesthesia and analgesia. I personally am not against all mainstream medicine, as I try to remain objective about what is most useful for the individual patient in their particular circumstance. I also always advise anybody who has been taking pharmaceutical medication for a long period of time, to consult a Naturopathic Practitioner, before giving up your pharmaceutical drugs completely.
On the other side of the Great Medical Divide are the so called Alternative Medical Practitioners. On this side, all the disciplines and practices have a long history, and did not suddenly come into being after World War II. Alternative Medicine and therapies have a proven effect on the disease state, with a philosophy of treating the underlying cause of illness / disease, rather than the symptoms of said illness / disease, which is where the focus of the Modern Industrial Medical system lies. Another very interesting and relevant point regarding Alternative Medicine is that there is no big money to be made. Alternative Medicine is affordable and accessible.
My personal approach to treating Covid 19, is that I would NOT take a vaccine, but I am not in a position to tell anybody what to do. Each of us have to make up our own minds about what is right for us. But I must say that I have pretty good reason for not taking the vaccine, being a vaccine injury survivor myself, having lost total hearing in my right ear after the DTP vaccine I was injected with as a child. I am still totally deaf in my right ear, and although this handicap is not obvious, as I can still hear with my left ear, it affects me tremendously. For starters, I am not able to tell direction that sound is coming from. This causes me tremendous problems when trying to find a ringing mobile phone for example. It has caused me to nearly get run over in busy streets, and as a result, I do not navigate through busy cities without the company of my husband. Being deaf in my right ear has also cost me two jobs, and caused some awkward social situations, when I do not hear people talking to me, as they are on the wrong side of me. When talking with people, they always have to be on my left hand side or I can not hear them properly. As a performing arts student, I was unable to participate in dance, as my balance is off. I have been practicing yoga for years to assist in developing my natural balance.
TREATING COVID 19 THE NATURAL WAY
My approach would vary depending on age, whilst bearing in mind that if you are under the age of 60, you have a 95% chance of full recovery.
What I would not do is rush out and get a vaccine. Rather my training as a Naturopath is to work with my healing instincts, by boosting my immune system. If your immune system is optimal, your Covid 19 symptoms will be minimal and you will have a full recovery. Below are a few basic tips for boosting your immunity:
DETOX & DIET
The first thing that needs to be addressed when it comes to maintaining optimal health and super boosted immune system, is our food and lifestyle. I cover this in treat detail in my article called THE GREAT DETOX
VITAMIN C
Doctors have had great success treating symptoms of Covid 19 by administering Vitamin C intravenously. However, wishing to forgo invasive techniques such as needles in the arm, I recommend eating food rich in Vitamin C. Let food be your medicine. Almost every morning, I drink freshly squeezed orange juice which contains plenty of Vitamin C
VITAMIN D / SUNSHINE
I try to get sunshine as often as possible, even in winter. Just 15 minutes a day of sitting in the sunshine, with sun on your face and / or body will increase your body’s production of Vitamin D. An important tip to note is to get sunshine on your back. The elderly Portuguese people of the Algarve swear by this method, claiming if you get sun on your back, you don’t chest problems / infections / coughs / Bronchitis in winter.
ZINC
Zinc is a nutrient found throughout your body, and helps your immune system and metabolim function. Zinc is also important to wound healing and your sense of taste and smell.
QUININE
The pharmaceutical version of this is Hydroxychloroquine, which has been used by many doctors to successfully treat Covid 19 patients. However, you can find naturally occurring Quinine in Tonic water. I personally recommend FEVER TREE, which is a premium Tonic water which derives it Quinine from the deep forests of the Democratic Republic of Congo. If you cannot find Fever Tree, you can use almost any Tonic water, which derives it’s bitter taste from Quinine. I personally try to stay away from anything manufactured by Coca-Cola, as they are one of the biggest industrial polluters, both of the planet and of our bodies, but they do own Schweppes, which make an adequate Indian Tonic Water which contains Quinine. Growing up in South Africa, we were taught from a youth that a Gin and Tonic keep Malaria at bay, and indeed, Quinine is a recognised treatment for pathogenic illnesses such Malaria. It is also used to treat skin problems, Lupus and Arthritis.
COLLOIDAL SILVER
Colloidal Silver is my hero product. In fact I am so passionate about it, that I make sell / distribute my own brand of Colloidal Silver called LUNAR SILVER.
One of the most important aspects of SILVER, and indeed the most relevant, is its usage as a microbiocide. Often SILVER is added to bandages, wound dressings, catheters and other medical instruments with the purpose of acting as a disinfectant. To put it simply, it is very small particles of silver suspended in pure water. Based on an ancient alchemical formula, LUNAR SILVER is a solution of pure or distilled water, into which pure silver has been dissolved through a process of electrolysis. It beggars belief as to how mainstream education and media have gone to great lengths to push the Modern Industrial Medicine narrative, rather than giving homage to ancient remedies that have been around for thousands of years. Indeed, silver has been used as an antimicrobial since antiquity. Silver disrupts multiple bacterial cellular processes, including disulfide bond formation, metabolism, and iron homeostasis. These changes lead to increased production of reactive oxygen species, and increased membrane permeability of harmful microbes, bacteria and pathogenic and predatory micro-organisms. In ancient Egypt and Greece, water was kept in silver urns, as it was known, even back then, that these silver urns kept the water fresh, as no bacteria would form within the silver urn, which would normally cause water to go stagnant. In the Victorian Era, it was commonly acknowledged that sucking on a silver spoon could eradicate symptoms associated with colds. It was commonly known by dairy farmers, that putting a pure silver coin into milk, stopped it from going sour, as the silver coin inhibited the growth of bacteria that would cause the milk to ferment and spoil. In fact, the legendary power of silver is chronicled in mythological accounts, as a deterrent for predators such as werewolves and vampires. Probably one of our most versatile holistic product renderings, there is still a vast lack of knowledge about this amazingly effective ancient remedy, which should be in every home, if not, every handbag, cosmetics bag, suitcase, lunch box and office desk drawer. Through many occasions of emergency, I have come to know the power of this amazing remedy, which can be used to treat any infection on the body, both internal and external. LUNAR SILVER can be used as a natural way of treating my animals, by pouring the clear and relatively tasteless elixir, into their drinking water, which helps to treat and protect animals from inflammation, infections and many diseases. It is safe to use on animals and children, and is easily consumed due to the fact that it is relatively tasteless. LUNAR SILVER can be used as an all purpose disinfectant, replacing harsh, abrasive, toxic chemical sanitizers. Hospitals in the UK and in Europe put silver into paint that is used on hospital walls, to aid in stopping the spread of viruses and communicable diseases. LUNAR SILVER can be used to treat conjunctivitis, gum disease, acne, skin and nail fungal infections, bladder, infection, kidney infection, stomach “bugs”, Coronavirus, Tick Bite Fever, Necrotizing Fasciitis (flesh eating bacteria) and nearly all viral and bacterial infections. LUNAR SILVER is a natural remedy that would replace antibiotics, which often have an extensive list of side effects.
HAND SANITISER
LUNAR SILVER is extremely effective as a hand sanitiser, and in fact, is far more effective than alcohol rubs, which have the tendency to dehydrate the skin, causing microscopic fissures on the skin’s surface as it evaporates, which is where bacteria breeds and accumulates, thus making it rather counterproductive to the purpose of the usage of alcohol rubs, which is to disinfect from bacteria, not to incubate it in cracks on the skin, which is what happens with alcohol rubs. Furthermore, in order for alcohol rubs to disinfect hands, it needs to be applied repeatedly, as it is only effective before it evaporates. LUNAR SILVER on the other hand coats the hands with a protective layer of silver particles, which will continue to act as a protective barrier against germs / bacteria / viruses for several days after application*. The effectiveness of the application of LUNAR SILVER does not diminish the moment it evaporates. Unlike alcohol rubs, LUNAR SILVER is kinder on the skin, being non-abrasive, tasteless, and odourless.
*Silver particles remain on skin until rubbed off, washed off, or falls off due to continual skin cell renewal.
Taking responsibility for your own health is the most empowering thing you can do for your own life and wellbeing. Do not fall into the trap of running to the doctor every time you get a sniffle or a cough. I recommend that everyone do a basic course in Herbalism, and learn how to treat most common ailments and symptoms naturally, rather than relying on Big Pharma trained doctor / drug dealers, who most likely will write you a prescription as long as your arm, as they get incentivised by Pharmaceutical companies to sell their poisons.
