Lately I have been getting many requests for what to take when one gets a Winter bug. I find it best to prevent a Winter bug, rather than have to treat it when you feel cr-ppy, so I prepared this IMW Winter Wellness Stack thru Fullscript. You can click on it to see the recommendations.

Besides the above, I also like to have Colostrum on hand, not only for its immune protection, but also to improve gut health and perhaps protect your gut from the after effects of any medications, especially antibiotics, that you may end up using.
Keep reading for my favorite brand of Colostrum that I have been using for almost 8 years. I do NOT stock it in my office but it is available online with the link below.
Colostrum from Sovereign Labs - GastroDefense - Click Here.
When ordering the GastroDefense get the Pro Colostrum-LD Powder for Professional Use.
How to Use:
Mix 1 teaspoon of GastroDefense with a few ounces of water on an empty stomach, usually best 1 hour before a meal OR 2 hours after a meal.
Swish it around in your mouth for a few seconds to help your oral cavity/dental inflammation/mouth/gums.
Then swallow it to help your GUT.
Helping the Gut often helps the immune system return to a healthy balance.
Be careful if you are dairy sensitive. If dairy sensitive contact me thru the Spruce app for a non-dairy alternative to Colostrum.
Perhaps for the first month use Colostrum twice a day, then reduce to once a day for maintenance.
You can return to twice a day for any reoccurrences of Gut or immune issues.
Any questions let me know.
As many professional sports teams like to say,
The best offense is a good defense
So let’s build up our defenses and be prepared if/when we get exposed.
Who was it that said?
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
