The Best Coronavirus Prevention

Hello friends, I'm very thankful that we can come to you with this special presentation.

Neil Nedley, who is the president of the Weimar Institute, as well as an internist and a specialist in how to prevent getting disease and build up your immune system.

It's been ubiquitous, talking about the coronavirus and the COVID-19.

And people are wondering, you know, what can they do?

It doesn't look like it's leaving the news cycle because new cases are being found.

As of the time of this recording, a school just south of us here in Sacramento was closed down, even though there were no local cases.

There may be still millions quarantined in China.

The word we're hearing is that folks might just expect that it's going to continue to spread.

So I want to thank you for joining us today but if if I'm correct there is at this point no imminent vaccine or no immediate vaccine available.

So yeah, unlike the flu virus, nothing you can do to get vaccinated on this 1.

Just covering some of the common questions that are coming in, this is a similar virus to a flu virus.

I guess it comes from a family of viruses that are of similar nature.

But would you say that the COVID-19 is more or less contagious than the common flu?

You know, the average individual with the flu will transmit it to a little more than 1 person on average and the average person with coronavirus is transmitting it a little more than 2 so it makes it a little more transmissible probably double the transmission rate.

Now if I understand right you and I were talking off-air you said that part of that might be because some people have it and they're not showing serious symptoms, but they are carrying it and they don't know.

Exactly, and that's what, this is why this virus is going to spread.

You know, unlike SARS or Ebola, where virtually everybody got sick and you could contain it and contain those sick people, 80% of people getting this virus are not really getting that sick.

Maybe a mild cold, maybe a sore throat and it goes away, or maybe no symptoms at all.

A lot of people with healthy immune systems, they have no symptoms at all, but yet they're transmitting the virus unknowingly.

Only less than 20% actually get sick enough to seek care and go to a hospital, and those are individuals normally that have the pneumonia, and that's of course much more serious, because the pneumonia can go into acute respiratory distress syndrome, and that's why the deaths are occurring.

And then the, from what I've seen is, compared to, I know a lot of people every year die from the common flu because it's pretty much everywhere but with the Coronavirus they say it may be as high as like 2.3 percent or 3 percent.

They're still gathering figures Death rate, right?

Yeah, and it's probably gonna be less than that because that's figures on the ones that are known cases.

Just like I mentioned since so many are not actually coming down with many symptoms and they haven't been tested, the death rate of coronavirus is probably going to be less than that.

But we do think at this time that the death rates are probably higher than the flu.

Now since there is no immediate cure or vaccine for this, people are wondering, well if it comes to a neighborhood near you, which what I'm hearing is they're figuring eventually it is going to continue to spread.

That if it comes to a neighborhood near you, which what I'm hearing is they're figuring eventually it is going to continue to spread.

That if it comes to a neighborhood near you, you know, what can you do?

Well, For 1 thing, will the summer season help slow this spread, as flu season I guess is typically worse in the winter?

We expect it will probably slow in the summer because of the heat and all of the sunlight.

Sunlight is antiviral, and of course, sunlight helps our immune system with vitamin D.

And just like the flu goes away in the summertime, many experts are thinking this will likely occur.

Although, since it's a novel virus, we're not absolutely sure until time does occur.

Your specialty is at the Institute teaching a program that's world-famous right now called NewSTART which is talking about certain natural things a person can do to improve their immunity and improve their health overall.

Well, New START is an acronym that WMAR has trademarked, and it's very easy to remember these 8 principles that have been shown to be very immune enhancing.

The W is water, which is being talked a lot about in the coronavirus.

That means avoiding things that are harmful to the immune system, like alcohol and tobacco.

The A is air, and of course, fresh air is a great way not to get the virus.

There's virtually no cases spread outdoors.

And then R is rest, proper rest, which means getting enough sleep.

And then T is trust and divine power, which is actually shown to also be immune enhancing.

So if we have 8 of these principles together, we can expect that our immune system will make us 1 of the ones, if we're exposed to it, 1 of the ones with no symptoms or maybe just mild symptoms.

So there's a chance we could be in that 70 or 80 percent that may be exposed.

Now if a person is exposed to coronavirus and they're able to resist it, they're developing, if I'm not mistaken, certain antibodies that help prevent them in the future.

Exactly, yeah, those antibodies will be protective of them in the future and that's actually better than getting the vaccine when you've gotten the real thing and your body's fought it off.

Now we were talking some of these viruses that are spreading you know some folks are saying well was this you know a bioweapon that the Chinese or somebody was developing?

This has happened before with these viruses mutating and they're being caught from animals.

But not just any animals, typically animals the Bible would normally tell us are unclean animals.

Exactly, that's why God told us to stay away from these was to prevent epidemics in nations and throughout the world.

And so virtually every epidemic, whether it was the SARS virus, Ebola, AIDS, they all have the signature that they started from actually eating unclean meat.

And because we're an unclean animal, we spread that readily.

So this is why if we can get infection from a cow, we might die from that, but we're not going to spread it to other human beings.

And so eating unclean meat is really unresponsible, because if you get an infection from unclean meat, you're going to readily spread that to other humans who are actually innocent, you know, they're not eating that.

And of course, we can trace it to the actual supermarket and the person who first contracted this from unclean animals and in coronavirus case, it was a bat.

Now, when we talk about the, some of the things that people can do, you know, there's been some practical information given, of course, I guess the same things that you would follow when it comes to the common flu is be more careful with the washing, sanitizing, avoid certain congested places, especially if you're in an area that has been identified as where there's community spread.

But so there's things we can do to increase our immune system by following the New START principles?

Your high antioxidant foods in vegetables and in fruit will actually help us.

So these are your cruciferous vegetables, broccoli, brussel sprouts, and the greens are very potent in antioxidants.

Spinach, kale is the number 2 antioxidant vegetable, and the number 1 is garlic.

And garlic even has some very strong antiviral activity and can even take care of viruses itself, plus it can help our immune system with that.

And the fruits are going to be primarily your berries and the whole fruit that actually has the most antioxidants that are not berries is the simple plum.

And so these are things that can actually protect our immune system and help us fight these things off.

You know, I'm so glad that you've come in to share this with us.

There are a lot of different videos going out around about the coronavirus where people are selling health supplements and things at exorbitant prices, and we're doing this to let people know there's free things that you can do that God's provided in His Word.

Now you did say there's 1 thing you might buy over the counter at a typical drugstore that could help boost your immune system.

Yeah, a New England Journal did a study on the flu 3 weeks ago that was published, showing that if you take N-acetylcysteine, and of course this is a natural antioxidant that boosts our glutathione, it's very cheap, you can get it in any drug store or pharmacy, 2 of those pills a day, which is 1, 200 milligrams, if you're exposed to the flu, 3 out of 4 that were taking the NAC developed 0 symptoms and developed antibodies against it.

And That's off the charts in regards to anything else, in fact, better than the flu vaccine itself by helping our own immune system do that.

It raises our glutathione levels and helps us in other ways too.

And So what's the name of it again if they just go to the counter?

Yeah, N-acetylcysteine, it'll be called NAC, because that's what it stands for.
