Mainstream PUZZLES over Long COVID… opening the door to alternatives?
Friend, I know you’re probably BURNED OUT over the news surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.
You’re probably thinking what we’re all thinking…
Isn’t this OVER yet???
And I’m never one to beat a dead horse. If I thought you’d already heard everything there was to hear about this virus… I wouldn’t WASTE your time retreading old ground.
But there’s something really intriguing that’s been bubbling under the surface…
And I think it’s about time it’s been brought to light.
It has to do less with active infections… hospitalizations… or deaths…
Or any of those other statistics that we’ve been HAMMERED with over the past two years.
But instead about the AFTER-EFFECTS in certain people who’ve technically RECOVERED from their infection…
And how it’s changing the way the mainstream looks at natural alternatives.
I’m talking about “Long COVID.”
Now, that’s not the most SCIENTIFIC term… but it’s become shorthand for the EXTENDED impact that a COVID-19 infection has had on some of its survivors.
They’re no longer CONTAGIOUS… and there may be ZERO sign of the active virus in their bodies.
In fact, they may show NO abnormal results in their bloodwork… or on ANY of the mainstream’s diagnostic tests!
But “Long COVID” patients could nevertheless FEEL exhausted… have TROUBLE concentrating or remembering… still be COUGHING… and more.
This gets worse…
Because not only are the fatigue… brain fog… and respiratory symptoms DEBILITATING…
But they could PERSIST for weeks or even months on end.
Regardless of their individual symptoms… “long-haulers” appear to share ONE thing in common.
Their quality of life is in the toilet!
These aren’t just a few isolated cases here and there… but an estimated 24 million Americans who are suffering from a “long haul” of post-infection complications!
And that’s enough for the mainstream to sit up and take notice… and try to actually DO something about it.
Only problem is, even after EXTENSIVE research… they’ve got NO CLUE as to what causes it!
And CONVENTIONAL therapies don’t seem to be helping patients feel much better. Not for MOST cases.
That may be the thing to SHATTER the establishment’s reliance on only mainstream medicine… and actually start EMBRACING natural approaches!
That’s right – the side that’s been so quick to slap a “fake news” label on any study that shows how a vitamin or herb might’ve helped BEAT BACK the virus or IMPROVE outcomes has now come to a RECKONING.
Left EMPTY-HANDED by mainstream treatments… they’re looking ELSWHERE.
In fact, an article that ran in the mainstream medical journal The BMJ earlier this year highlighted researchers who’ve admitted that a “holistic” approach to Long COVID may be best.
And that’s going to require a certain… openness. One that we haven’t really seen from the mainstream before.
Then again, we haven’t really faced something exactly like Long COVID before.
Friend, I don’t have the answers, either. I wish I could tell you that there’s a “silver bullet” for BANISHING the long-haul symptoms of COVID-19.
But I do think you’ve got a far better chance of feeling better if you consult a naturopathic doctor well-versed in integrative medicine… especially if your family doctor tells you there’s nothing he can do.
