Words of Caution
The dietary and lifestyle strategies given in this book are aimed towards improving your immune health, but because of their direct impact on other health components, they are also very effective at improving various underlying health conditions. If you are taking any medication, especially medication for diabetes or high blood pressure, do not make dietary changes without the assistance of a physician, as your medication will require adjustment to prevent excessive lowering of your blood pressure and blood sugar levels. This could otherwise lead to dangerous situations. Therefore, any medication you take for either of these conditions will need to be adjusted and, with time, maybe discontinued.
The health message in this book empowers you to take control of your own health. However, the nature of immune health is a sensitive topic. Thats because we are led to believe by many of our leaders and people in powerful positions that vaccines are the only solution in the protection against infectious diseases like COVID-19. Although the message in this book doesnt oppose vaccines per se (see Preface), it does oppose the belief that they are our only hope. The danger of this belief is that it ignores the science that can make a significant contribution to our immune health and wellbeing. Some of the information presented, no matter how deeply rooted in science, may therefore hurt those in powerful economic positions who are ignorant of the scientific evidence regarding naturally strengthening our immune system, or choose to ignore it for economic reasons, or otherwise.
Some of the information in this book may also upset anyone who has strong food preferences, food addictions and deep-rooted beliefs about health. Our attachments to food can result in strong opposition and disbelief, regardless of the evidence presented. It may be that some topics will resonate with you, and some wont. I hope that you can keep an open mind and explore all options before you reach a conclusion. In the end, we all share a common goal. We all want to be healthy and happy.
If I can make even the slightest contribution to your journey of happiness and wellbeing, I am deeply grateful.

Preface
C OVID-19 is not our enemy. In fact, it is an opportunity wrapped in disguise.
Right. Try and tell that to the people who have been infected with COVID-19, or lost somebody close to them. Tell it to the person who suddenly lost his or her job. Explain it to someone whose happiness and wellbeing took a nosedive and was replaced by stress and anxiety.
The global pandemic of COVID-19 has made a big impact on all of us. If the virus infection hasnt affected us directly, it surely has made an impact indirectly because of governments imposed restrictions and regulations. As a result, a large number of people have experienced fear over the possibility of getting infected with COVID-19. They feel vaccines are the only way to keep them safe. After all, what if more future waves hit?
Anna, a friend of mine, has expressed to me how the lockdown affected her. She wanted to go outside, but decided not to because of her fear and anxiety. She and her husband had recently welcomed a baby girl to the family, so her concerns extended to their newborn daughter. She hoped a vaccine would come out soon to protect her and her family, so their lives could return to normal.
Unfortunately, Anna and her family are not the only ones who feel like this.
If theres one thing that debilitates people, its fear. Maybe you can relate to Anna? If not to her situation, then surely to how fear can affect your decision-making and wellbeing. The U.S. Senator of Minnesota, Scott Jensen, knows this very well:
Fear is a great way to control people, and sometimes peoples abilities to think for themselves is paralyzed if theyre frightened enough. Thats not what I want people to be. I want people to say: Were gonna get through this, Im gonna use my head, Im gonna go to different sources, Im gonna listen to different sources and Im gonna think for myself.
Senator Jensen really hits the nail on the head here. Fear disturbs our entire creative process and our rational thought process. Fear drains us of our energy. Can a vaccine really fix all of that?
A vaccine cant save us from our own mental prison, and it will be far from a lifesaver. In fact, it is dishonest to state that a vaccine would be our only hope. Why?
The vast majority of us will only have mild-to-moderate symptoms. It is true, however, that a minority group is at an increased risk for complications, as a study in one of the worlds most respected scientific journals confirmed earlier this year. Yet, this minority group shows not only the problem, but also the solution.
