Zinc
- Zinc is a key ingredient in Sun Protector Plus and it blocks both UVA and UVB sun rays to prevent apoptotic sunburn and protects you against skin cancer caused by sun damage. Your skin absorbs the zinc oxide in Moondust pleasant and easy glide on sunscreen well.
- Not only does it block coronavirus particles from replicating themselves, it is also helps the human body to detoxify from heavy metals It also has antiviral effects and performs a variety of antioxidant functions, while you have fun in the sun or go about your work outside.
- While it is easy to get zinc into your system, zinc deficiency may be present in 17% of the world’s population!
Vitamin D
- Mentioned in previous blogs and videos, Vitamin D continues to be a rock star supplement effective in preventing some elements of inflammation and increase anti-inflammatory activity in your body. This can help to reduce some of the lung damage associated with the virus, if you are exposed.
- Vitamin D deficiency is a world-wide problem, but is particularly pronounced in the elderly, who are at risk of contracting severe COVID-19 infection. This deficiency has been correlated with COVID-19 cases and an increased risk of mortality in a large European study and in a number of other recent studies
Vitamin C
- We all know by now that this vitamin is an essential anti-oxidant that even reduces free radical damage from our everyday breathing. It also plays a role in physiological reactions such as hormone production, collagen synthesis and immune potentiation.
- Eating vitamin C-rich foods is connected to controlling the level of oxidative DNA damage and it is also a known anti-viral agent that has been demonstrated to show anti-viral immune responses especially against influenza virus at the onset of infection.
- In some cases it may reduce respiratory infections from happening or dragging on. For some this means less time in a hospital or even on a ventilator. Vitamin C deficiency has been observed in many respiratory infections in patients worldwide.
