Trump doc reported THIS surprising ingredient in COVID-19 treatment
If you’re like most Americans, you were following President Trump’s recent battle with COVID-19 closely.
And I’m sure you noticed… no stone was left unturned!
I don’t mean the “experimental” treatments that POTUS received while receiving care for his COVID-19 diagnosis at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center right here in Maryland.
According to public statements made by White House physician Sean Conley, DO…
President Trump was also taking NATURAL therapies!
In addition to zinc and vitamin D … both of which are excellent at supporting healthy immunity… he was ALSO supplementing with something ELSE…
Something that could help MANY of us during this coronavirus pandemic… with or without a positive test result.
Secret weapon?
I’m talking about melatonin .
That’s right – the “sleep hormone”!
Now, Trump has been losing sleep over the coronavirus pandemic – as he admitted in an interview with ABC.
And he’s known to be a “short sleeper ”… staying up until the wee hours and often starting his work day as early as 6 a.m.
So, it comes as no surprise that his doc – a holistic-friendly doctor of osteopathic medicine – would report the use of a natural sleep superstar.
Now, we don’t know whether the melatonin was specifically prescribed AFTER the president’s coronavirus diagnosis… or exactly WHY he was taking it…
But it appears as though this substance COULD do more than help regulate sleep-wake cycles.
As USA Today reported, research suggests that this sleep aid could benefit COVID-19 patients by reducing inflammation .
And the inflammatory condition known as a “cytokine storm ” is one of the hallmarks of serious COVID-19 cases.
The connection is possible – enough to warrant clinical trials to try to flesh out how taking melatonin might impact COVID-19 symptoms, severity (as measured by hospitalization and ICU status), and mortality.
One study is even looking at the potential effects of high-dose, intravenous melatonin .
It will be some time before we know for sure what melatonin might do in human COVID-19 patients…
But the good news is that melatonin is safe for pretty much anyone to take… and on a NIGHTLY basis.
Listen, the coronavirus pandemic has taken a toll on ALL of us.
Many of us are missing out on restful sleep – the kind that’s CRUCIAL for keeping our moods and immune responses up to snuff.
Melatonin could help RESET your sleep patterns… and help you feel more RESTED and less STRESSED.
Who couldn’t use a bit of that these days?
Even better, melatonin has been shown to help OPTIMIZE the activity of vitamin D … which can also boost your mood and immune protection.
To not losing any more sleep,

P.S. In an ongoing trial out of Israel, THIS was 3X more effective than dexamethasone at inhibiting cytokine activity. And one of its ingredients has helped lots of folks cope with occasional bouts of stress… and even combat occasional sleeplessness.
