Vitamin C is especially important for humans. Unlike the rest of the animal kingdom, humans do not make Vitamin C. We need to take it in from food sources and supplements. What make Vitamin C so valuable right now? Vitamin C is an important anti-oxidant. This means it repairs tissues that have been damaged by a process called oxidation. Oxidation is what happens when metals rust. This same process happens in your body all the time. However, the healthy, colorful vegetables... in your diet counteract oxidation. Colorful vegetables are loaded with natural anti-oxidants. We are in unusual circumstances currently. If we become ill with the current virus our bodies will have huge amounts of oxidation taking place. This is called oxidative stress. If you normally have a healthy diet and lifestyle, you are better able to fight viral illnesses. Unfortunately, the current virus presents a challenge to our systems that is unlike anything we have encountered before. Vitamin C and zinc are the subjects of an important study going on at the Cleveland Clinic. They are going to study a fairly high dose Vitamin C and zinc. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of vitamin C and zinc in reducing duration of symptoms in patients diagnosed with COVID-19. We know that high dose Vitamin C helps our bodies fight oxidative stress which is why we are recommending extra Vitamin C in the form of supplements. It seems like the most protective way to take it is a powder dissolved in water and drink throughout the day. We are holding on to bags of Vitamin C Powder for you. Please call us at (562) 596-5196 or click the link to our website and find this on our Vitality Store

How Will the Stress of COVID-19 Affect Us Long-Term? The year 2020 will be forever remembered for unbelievable stress. Never have we been asked to make so many changes simultaneously in the way we live our lives; social distancing, sheltering in place, working from home, remote learning for the children, the list goes on and on. How does all this stress affect us? Stress is processed by the brain and translated into a fight and flight response. Our nervous system is geared ...into action and we release a stress hormone called cortisol. In the short-term, cortisol helps us focus and increases energy. Long-term stress and high cortisol, however, starts breaking down tissues, weakens the immune system and depletes nutrient resources the body needs function optimally. Symptoms of chronic stress include anxiety, decreased energy levels, frequent colds, gastrointestinal irritation and sleep disturbance. What can we do to decrease the effects of stress on our minds and our immune system? Covid Town Hall Meeting Monday May 4th at 6 p.m. Dr. Sklar and Dr. Nicole will be providing an update about Covid-19. This is an opportunity to ask your questions and learn about Covid-19 through the functional medicine perspective. We look forward to seeing you on Monday! Call our office to sign up to be there
