Healing After Co-Vid with Leo Galland

In this episode, Donna is joined by Leo Galland, MD, a board-certified internist, and creator of the Coronavirus Guidebook. He explains the long-term impact CO-VID has on the body, in particular, the negative impact it has on ACE2 which plays a vital role in healing, and protecting the body and blood vessel health.

Leo explains how the circulatory system is impacted negatively, which in turn puts incredible stress on the brain, nerves, and other systems. He also shares the step-by-step approach he is using to enable people to fully recover from COVID.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Long-term inflammation after COVID is common. Some end up with long CoVid, while others have enough energy left to get through day-to-day life despite still being quite sick.
• Both long COVID and post-infection inflammation are treatable.
• The virus damages ACE2.
• ACE2 helps maintain blood vessels, so circulation can be inhibited, leading to brain fog, shortness of breath etc.
• The body takes in oxygen but cannot deliver it well via damaged blood vessels.
• Healing the gut microbiome helps enormously, it enables the huge number of ACE2 receptors that live there to reactivate.
• Which treatments work depends on the disease path.
• The virus and fragments hang out mainly in the GI tract, causing inflammation and preventing absorption of amino acids, which impacts the brain, the nervous system and other body systems.
• Fermented food strengthens T effector lymphocytes.

BEST MOMENTS

‘The gut has a major influence on long COVID.’

‘The full impact of COVID on our species – I think it’s going to be a long time before we know what that is.’
