As far as viral healing goes, to my knowledge it's not possible. There are thousands of viruses in the world and hundreds (if not thousands) that exist in our bodies all the time. So, as far as I know, the best thing we can do is keep our body in balance (physically, mentally, emotionally), to keep the virus' from flaring up. Is that your understanding, also?

It would be wonderful to target the virus where it resides, for instance in the brain as you mentioned, but that won't ultimately heal us completely, will it? That's why I always come back to diet, routine, stress reduction etc. But anything else you can share on this is appreciated!

No it's not my understanding that we can't heal viruses. We have anti-viral medical treatment. These are even more heavily in development now that so many emergent viruses have infected masses.
As far a healing people from effects of COVID, this is very serious business. This virus causes a multitude of very serious organ damage, short and long term, in many people. Most recently, the brain damage from this virus was shown to literally disconnect communication between some neurons in lab-brain-on-a-chip study. Not only does the virus itself need addressing, but Medicine is endeavoring to find treatments for the wide scope of damage or people are suffering from.
Just FYI, the therapeutic treatment for Vagus nerve correction from COVID virus disruption focuses on mild electrical stimulation.
In reading your input I feel it's important to distinguish between health maintenance vs disease and illness treatment. These are not equal.
Also, science and medicine strive to base treatments on empirical evidence. This means properly performed experiments. These get peer reviewed + then reproduced. And the process rests within the scientific/medically educated community for ongoing processing + feedback.
When I hear anecdotal claims such as healing one's blood brain barrier, I think "were there serial MRI 'S showing this?" " Were there lg + sm molecule penetration tests? " Etc Because when it comes to addressing true illnesses and diseases, unfounded claims are not a part of medical consideration.
I believe in the innate genetic programming blueprint that promotes healing in us. I believe there is value in non- medical approaches to healing. But in my view, significant illness or injury is best + foremost treated by the medical profession. Stress reduction, diet, etc are important in context for health. But they will not serve as a sole or primary treatment for true pathology.
I read what comes out of Mayo Clinic research + recommendations for the science and medical developments. They lead the pack. They are evidence based. They often arrive at conclusions early bc the community is so intelligent. They may extrapolate information from patients' open input. But they are not reviewing our comments, if they even do, because they think we know more than they do. LOL. And if people are showing up because they believe they need to teach Mayo Clinic something......no words for the absurdity of that scenario.
