LONG COVID

We are seeing more and more people struggling with Long Covid, with the majority having had a history of poor gut health (loose stools, constipation, IBS..see Research: Make-up of gut microbiome may be linked to long COVID risk). 70% of our immune system lies in our gut, so if our gut isn't working well, then our immune system is already compromised. As we have done previously working with many with Post Viral Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, it is essential to focus on the gut health as a priority, restore micronutrient deficiencies (due to the gut being unable to absorb key nutrients) and recommend the most therapeutic diet for the individual depending on their symptoms and history.
