In today's video, I'm discussing how we can prevent or minimize the unwanted symptoms of norovirus.

First, it's important to recognize that norovirus relies on oxidative stress-induced cell damage to spread and replicate in the body. So anything we can do to decrease oxidative stress by improving the antioxidant status of our cells decreases the opportunity for viral activity in our body.

Norovirus also attacks and damages the intestinal lining, which is why vomiting and diarrhea are often a large part of the symptom picture. Making sure our gut health is on point is high value.

Nutrient Support⬇️

Support gut health integrity and cellular antioxidant status by using probiotics like lactobacillus and bifidobacterium species as well as one of my favorites, N-acetyl Cysteine or NAC. NAC increases our master antioxidant glutathione to reduce cell damage and promote a hostile environment for norovirus.

Vitamin C and selenium can also help in a similar fashion to NAC.

Plus I share how to properly hydrate if you are vomiting, why I use a throat spray, and how acid blockers (proton pump inhibitor and H2 blockers) can increase susceptibility to a norovirus infection.
