Stay healthy watch the air quality!

If you haven't noticed the sky or the news or you aren't sure how to best stay well or if this matters to you please read on...

Air quality is hazardously bad:
Please consider wearing a KN95 mask when you are outdoors (these are appropriate for very small particulate matter that is currently in the air).
Use Filters on air coming into your home.
Keep your antioxidants up (fruits and veggies).
In TCM: Almonds and peaches benefit our lungs.
Household supplements that can be a benefit include: Quercetin, NAc (or coQ10), and Vitamin C.

Please stay well, Dr. Gonick and Dr Palacios

Interesting article on research relating to EMF and methods to reduce your exposure.

YASAMAN TASALLOTI, ND Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been an increase in the utilization of technology to work, learn, and connect from home. To a great degree, this has been a welcomed solution in terms of convenience and the ability to resume daily life; however, the l...

Eat Right If you haven't already been working on it try to keep your blood sugar consistently healthy for both your mood and immune system. Exercise, avoiding sugar and alcohol and watching your carbohydrates especially if you have blood sugar problems are important.
Also certain foods are important to prime your immune system, especially for blood type A and AB. White button mushrooms, escargot, and organic fermented soy. To learn more schedule an appointment or free check in (https://square.site/appointments/book/7GPNQ3R659T1Y/generative-health-llc-lancaster-pa) .

Stay Well!

Here at Generative Health, we are cleaning and keeping up to date on the current recommendations both from the state, federal, and Chinese medicine community.

We are currently asking that you let us know ahead of time, if you have been exposed or have symptoms before coming in. We are offering current patients the opportunity to schedule short free Naturopathic phone consults (https://square.site/appointments/book/7GPNQ3R659T1Y/generative-health-llc-lancaster-pa) if they have concerns or need recommendations for immune support.

I have been getting a lot of questions about the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), and have been keeping uptodate with information for health care providers, so I am sending out a short note to my patients, feel free to pass it on.

What you can do

Wash your hands
Notice, I didn't say sanitize. Soap is amazing against viruses and the act of hand washing for 10-20s with soap is usually preferred over hand sanitizer. On the go, hand-wipe cloths with either soap or alcohol are better than gel alone.

If you need to or choose to make your own sanitizer or use alcohol directly on your skin, please use Ethanol (drinking alcohol), which is safer for your body. Commercial products do not use isopropanol (rubbing alcohol). Ethanol should be 60% or greater (120 proof) rum and grain alcohol are the most available. You can simple substitute this into one of the many recipes online. Consider adding a small amount of thyme essential oil if you have it, it is a strong antiviral, but not safe for digestion as an essential oil.

Know when to avoid contact
Avoid crowds and places with known cases
According to the state website (https://www.health.pa.gov/topics/disease/Pages/Coronavirus.aspx) , as of 3pm March 12th, in Pennsylvania (https://www.health.pa.gov/topics/disease/Pages/Coronavirus.aspx) the majority of confirmed cases are in Montgomery county surrounding areas (Bucks, Delaware, Monroe, Northampton, Philadelphia, Pike, Wayne). If you live in one of those areas be especially watchful for cold-like symptoms, and avoid going places unless necessary.
None in Lancaster county at the moment.

Zinc lozenges
These concentrate high doses of zinc in your upper respiratory region, and have been suggested to be of some use in reducing your risk of contracting COVID-19.
