An episode from The Holistic Navigator. This is not to diagnosis or treat any disease/illness. Consult your physician before taking supplements or medications OR before you stop taking medications. This is for entertainment/informational purposes only!

Infections, whether they’re viral or bacterial, are an unfortunate part of all of our lives. Every once in a while a new strain appears, sweeps across the population, and we’re often left with more questions than answers about how to protect ourselves. We want to help remedy that.

Meet Dr. Mike Smith:

On this week’s episode we’re speaking with Dr. Mike Smith. Dr. Mike is the director of education for Life Extension and one of our favorite people to speak with. Life Extension is the world’s leading organization dedicated to helping people stay healthy and live better, so to say that our missions align is a bit of an understatement. Dr. Mike walks us through his own personal immune boosting regimen, with the science and clinical evidence behind each one.

Some Topics We Discuss:

What do we need to do to arm ourselves against viral infection? (5:41)
How much Vitamin D should we take? (9:18)
When should you start taking nutrients if you’re feeling under the weather? (13:48)
What are some more specific supplements that are known to help with viral infections? (26:55)

Some Key Takeaways from this Episode:

Vitamin D is the orchestrator of our whole immune system. (7:48)
The minute you start feeling a little off, that’s when you need to start cranking up the nutrients. Don’t wait until you feel super sick. (14:00)
Lactoferrin can act as a frontline defense system for your immune system (15:03)
You need to look at labels as a guide for maintenance dosing. Do not be afraid of therapeutic doses. (18:42)
