NEW STUDIES 1
The Kyolic Garlic & Aerobic Fitness Trial
Arterial stiffness is a cardiovascular risk factor, which increases naturally with age. Kyolic garlic has been shown to improve the flexibility of arteries, and slows down blood flow, which may improve oxygen uptake, associated with aerobic fitness.

Ried K, BinJemain T, Sali A (November 25, 2021). Therapies to Prevent Progression of COVID-19, Including Hydroxychloroquine, Azithromycin, Zinc, and Vitamin D3 With or Without Intravenous Vitamin C: An International, Multicenter, Randomized Trial. Cureus 13(11): e19902. link: doi:10.7759/cureus.19902
Abstract
Stage 1 of the study took place in seven participating hospitals in Turkey. A total of 237 hospitalized patients with COVID-19 aged 22-99 years (mean: 63.3 ± 15.7 years) were enrolled in the study. Almost all patients were vitamin D deficient (97%), 55% were severely vitamin D deficient (<25 nmol/L), and 42% were vitamin D deficient (<50 nmol/L); 3% had insufficient vitamin D levels (<75 nmol/L), and none had optimal vitamin D levels.
The study suggests that the treatment protocol of HCQ, AZM, and Zinc with or without vitamin C is safe and effective in the treatment of COVID-19, with high dose IV vitamin C leading to a significantly quicker recovery. The observed fatality rate of 0.4% (1/237) in our study stands in contrast to a 17% fatality rate of hospitalised COVID-19 patients receiving standard care, based on a meta-analysis of 33 international studies involving 13,400 patients.
In summary, the study confirms vitamin D deficiency to be a high-risk factor of severe COVID-19 disease and hospitalization. Furthermore, the study provides evidence for HCQ, AZM, zinc, with or without Intravenous Vitamin C to be a safe and effective in the treatment of COVID-19.
Investigators:
The Trial has ethics and TGA approval and is registered on the ANZ clinical trial registry (www.anzctr.org.au) ACTRN12620000557932.

Outpatient protocol:
If you don’t have any symptoms of COVID-19, but are interested in the benefits of Vitamin D, you are encouraged to
get your Vitamin D levels measured by your local GP (or via http://imedical.com.au -> private blood test)

Immunity
One of the most fundamental wellness strategies we can consider is the development and maintenance of a strong immune system. It is paramount to have a normal immune system for the maintenance of health. Especially in winter, with its typical increase in the incidence of colds and flus, we can be proactive with regards to our immunity.
