Comprehensive presentation. Thank you
What a GREAT Presentation! 👍👍👍
I think Intermittent and Prolonged Fasting is one of the most underreported and underutilized Lifestyle changes for the Treatment (and PREVENTION) of Long COVID, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ME, Fibromyalgia, Post Lyme Disease, POTS, and MCAS. As you discuss the multiple benefits of Fasting, it is a MULTI-FACTOR Solution to a Multi-Factor Disease.
Most importantly, you discuss how FASTING, like Exercise, is a Stress on the Body. You need to get yourself in a stable condition before you gradually Pace yourself back into Exercise and Fasting. I believe Long COVID, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ME, Fibromyalgia, Post Lyme Disease, POTS, and MCAS are ALL chronic dysfunctions of the Immune System brought on by Chronic STRESS. In the case of Long COVID, the acute infection of COVID-19 is merely a trigger to the Complete Breakdown of an ALREADY Compromised Immune System.
Chronic Stress is what brings the Long Hauler to Long COVID. This root cause is the FIRST thing that must be addressed. Reduction of Chronic Stress commonly involves a Change in Attitude. LifeWithKyle, JUST ROB, and Raelan Agle claim that an Attitude Adjustment was a Critical Breakthrough in their Recoveries. Once they TRULY Believed they could Heal, and set their Intention to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes, their Recovery began.
LifeWithKyle used Meditation during the onset of relapse symptoms to mentally examine his symptoms and, more importantly, how he felt about them. He decided to become more ACCEPTING, rather than FEARFUL of them. In a sense, he gave himself PERMISSION, rather than blaming himself, for being Sick. By CALMING his Nervous System, he found his relapse symptoms would Diminish, rather than being Exacerbated by Fear. This allowed him to gradually increase his Exercise, furthering his Recovery.
Eliminating CHRONIC STRESS with a Change in Attitude is the 1st Step, followed by becoming a Master Student of Managing Stress through Improving Sleep Habits. Deep Sleep is the ONLY Time the Waste Products of Inflammation and Normal Metabolism are removed from the Brain. You want to work towards getting the maximum amount of Deep Sleep. Becoming a Student of Stress Management through Meditation, Breathwork, and Light Yoga will help with the Goal of improving Sleep Habits, leading to a more Stable Condition.
Long Haulers have developed a number of Essential Nutrient and Antioxidant Deficiencies that led to their dysfunctional Immune Systems. Becoming a Student of Proper Nutrition by following a Healthy Ketogenic Diet with Intermittent and occasional Prolonged Fasting, along with Supplementation of Key Vitamins and Minerals critical to proper Immune System function, will help to speed Recovery.
Elite Athletes should recognize that OVERTRAINING is a Chronic Stress. By not allowing the Body to properly Recover after Exercise, it reduces your Athletic Performance as well as downregulates your Immune System, making you more susceptible to chronic dysfunctions like Long COVID. Once you become a Student of RECOVERY after Exercise, I believe you can not only return to your PRE-COVID Athletics, but will find yourself setting NEW Personal Records. 👍
What an amazing comment. I just subscribed to you, just in case, if you ever decide to put out content.
@@Wandering.Homebody - Thanks for your kind words, Stephanie! I attempted to reply with some additional content, but it was deleted by the YT Algorithm. 😔 I’m actually surprised my original post was left available for you to read.
Great advice! thanks, I am going to implement this
Long Covid causes a reaction that is the same as having T2 diabetes, and blood tests show it. But then it's a catch 22, you need to fast or exercise to prompt the body to repair it's self. LC and CFS is an issue with nervous system damage and fasting can promote healing, which will reduce the diabetes-like issues. So I think fasting has a lot of promise for LC/CFS, but maybe start with 16 hours, then 24, then longer, but it seems like 3 days is required for the maximum benefit.
Exceptional Presentation!🙏🏾👑🔥
3/11/21 JJ cov vax injured. Autoimmune phenomenon changed the trajectory of my entire life. Low dose naltrexone, augmented NAC, infrared red sauna and water fasting has made a difference. It’s been a long road with much more to travel. I’ve listened to your talk a couple times and greatly appreciate your knowledge and method of presentation. Thank you.
Where did you get the augmented NAC?
Also, May You be Blessed On Your Journey Back To Total Wellness 🙏🏾
@@coryrussum9286 link may have been removed. Google augmented Nac. Imported from Italy and sold by a couple apothecaries in USA. They recently changed by adding lemon essential oil to combat the sulfur smell. Wish they wouldn’t have changed the formula but many were turned off by the scent.
This is very informative - thank you very much. As much as I love eating, including inflammatories such as sugar and salt, I’m going to have to try reducing all food intake and/or fasting, as this Long Covid is crippling.
Sadly I fasted and keto-ed myself into complete burnout, having a LOT of stress in my life at the same time. And now I have long Covid as a result...😢
Brilliant talk. Very thorough. Thank you
Superb! thank you very much.
Thank you for a great presentation, Jamie! Very informative.
Thank you Donika!
Thank you for the tips.
long covid ??? 😅😅😅 just because the covid marketing team stuck with the name doesn't mean it's the sane exact virus..It's already mutated a number of times just as every good corona virus does each end every year since humans started getting the sniffles and should have been renamed to reflect that just as we have done for hundreds of years...Quit fostering hysteria and quit taking 50K per reported covid case and we can talk...
Thank you! My daughter’s boyfriend is having g a really hard time with long Covid and this will be very helpful. I am fasting and loving it
Hope it helps him Angela, and glad to hear that it is giving you some benefit aswel!
Do you have any views with regard to continuing to take supplements like NAC/glycine, serrapeptase, nattokinase and DLPA etc.. while fasting?
Hi! Taking nutritional based supplements while doing extended fasting can be done - the individual who completed one of the longest known fast of around 12 months did it using a multivit alongside other things, so I think things like NAC and glycine would be fine, however, you would need to check this and do some research for more active products like nattokinase and get advise from your doctor with prescriptive medication..
I suspect I have long Covid. Before Covid I already had autoimmune disorders, but since Covid everything has become much worse. My food sensitivities have gone crazy. I am desperate to get my issues under better control. Diet alone hasn't helped. The last fast I tried, I started really bottoming out at three days and had to quit. Would a 4 or 5 day fast with bone broth added be enough to reset my immune system and accomplish some autophagy? I do not need need to lose weight so I am concerned about not having reserves for a longer fast. I feel like the bone broth would help me get through a longer fast, but I don't want to do that if it will compromise the healing effects.
I have long Covid and fasted in Ramadan felt a much better
@@ghayahyousef1649 good to know
Why did all of my Covid symptoms appear back about 40 hours into a water fast (with snake juice)? I couldn’t continue and had to break it as it made me feel terrible. Been suffering with long Covid for 1.5 years. Symptoms slowly getting better.
Sorry to read you had this experience. Symptoms and progress are really mysterious with this disease. Glad you make progress slow as it is. Hang in there!
You were doing a Prolonged Fast correctly by taking Electrolytes. But you may have attempted too much too soon. Like Exercise, Fasting is a Stress on the Body. Too much may bring on a relapse. Take your time and ease into Fasting gradually. You might try some Meditation with Breathwork to calm your Nervous System. Being calm may help to diminish the symptoms, rather than exacerbate them by becoming anxious.
I recommend starting with Intermittent Fasting (Time Restricted Eating), where you eat multiple meals every day within a comfortable single feeding window and work towards reducing it to 8 hours. Once you are comfortable at that pace, you can then attempt a 24 hour Prolonged Fast. When you refeed, you can go back to your previous feeding window prior to the 24 hour Fast.
Good Luck on your Journey to Recovery!
LifeWithKyle and Positively COVID offer Long COVID-specific Guided Meditations. The Physiological Sigh is a useful Breathing Technique. Do not be concerned if you end a Fast early. There is always tomorrow!
Have you had an EBV panel done? My Long Covid is from the EBV becoming reactivated...
No talk of metals, mycotoxins or biofilms that I heard.
Oh right 😮😮😮
This too long for us LC sufferers. Please provide an index and timestamps.
40 minutes is NOTHING when you truly care, are suffering and want to improve the situation
@@justinduffer9500you're assuming this is the only video and website people are looking at. There's 99% useless videos so it's not a bad idea to timestamp this to help people out.
And vaccine injury
