18 Best Supplements to Reduce Cytokine Storm: Advanced Guide

By
Image
As of May 2024, there are more than 4,000 early treatment studies  that have been published and shared with the whole world. New ones are being added every day.  This is a review of the literature, covering multiple observational studies, randomized controlled trials and references related to natural supplements and cytokine storm with more than 300 studies and references. We know that while a large percentage of the population only experiences mild to moderate symptoms of COVID-19 and wonā€™t require hospitalization, others experience severe symptoms and complications, require hospitalization, or may even die.  It appears one of the differences between those who have a mild illness and severe illness is related to the body's ability to reduce the hyperimmune response that leads to a cytokine storm and the hyper-coagulability (tendency for blood clots) that often accompanies it. The cytokine storm may be one possible way to ex...

14 Best Baby Diapers of 2025 - Price, Reviews, Comparison

By Dr Frank Yap, MD
Image
  What Makes a Good Diaper? Babies go through a lot of wet and soiled diapers during those first few weeks. To prepare for this phenomenon, most parents build a stockpile of diapers before baby arrives. This can be an overwhelming task for both seasoned and first-time parents, and there are many factors to consider when stocking up, such as babyā€™s weight, diaper fit, and finances. a. Softness Baby skin is delicate and sensitive, especially during the newborn days. And your baby will have a diaper resting against their skin 24/7 for at least a few years. A good disposable should be made from materials that are as soft and comfortable as possible, both inside and out. b. Stretch Babies come in all different shapes and sizes. While you canā€™t fully control fit, a diaper that stretches to conform to the broadest range of babiesā€™ weights and sizes offers the best chance of a good fit and, ultimately, ...

9 Types of Zinc Supplementation and Absorption

By
Image
Zinc is a powerful immune nutrient known for its benefits for providing immune health support and inflammation reduction as well as for improving cold and respiratory symptoms, wound healing, acne reduction, and lowering the risk of age-related diseases. Research on atherosclerosis and diabetes mellitus suggests that zinc deficiency may contribute to low-grade systemic inflammation. Even more popular at the moment is the role of  zinc and the potential benefits against COVID-19 . This is probably one of the reasons that's driving the demand on zinc related products. In a  ConsumerLab survey  of 9,647 people who use dietary supplements shows that the supplements which experienced the greatest growth in popularity in 2020 were those being promoted to prevent or treat infection with SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19. Zinc supplements achieved the highest growth with 13.5% points. Does zinc help treat COVID 19? In order to answer that question, there are many z...

10 Best NMN Supplements (2025 Review)

By
Image
NMN stands for nicotinamide mononucleotide and is a precursor to NAD+, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. NMN is the direct precursor of the essential molecule nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and is considered a key component to increase NAD+ levels in cells. NAD+ is a critical molecule found in every cell of your body, but levels of NAD+ naturally fall with age, making it ā€” and NMN, as a result ā€” crucial. NMN is one of the most popular supplements in the anti aging community. The global Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) market was valued at US$ 98.5 million in 2019 and it is expected to reach US$ 296.5 million ( R ) by the end of 2026, growing at a CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of 7.3% during 2021-2026. The NAD story took off toward the end of 2013 with a  high-profile paper  by Harvard's David Sinclair and colleagues. Sinclair, recall, achieved fame in the mid-2000s for research on yeast and mice that suggested the red wine ing...

Dr. Zelenko's Z-Stack Vitamin Cocktail: Review 2024

By
Image
The  Zelenko COVID-19 Protocols  was developed by Dr Vladimir Zelenko. The protocol has as its centerpiece, but not exclusive piece, the combined use of Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and Zinc as a means by which a person can both help to prevent or mitigate the contraction of  COVID-19 , or can actually treat the disease once it has been diagnosed.  A  retrospective study  analyzing Dr Zelenko's patient data was accepted for publication after a rigorous peer review process. The study finds that early intervention and treatment of high-risk patients with COVID-19 resulted in significantly fewer hospitalizations and deaths. The treatment consisting of zinc, low-dose hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), and azithromycin, is also referred to as "The Zelenko Protocol." Dr Zelenko has since updated his protocols to incorporate new evidence. He has since evolved his protocols to include a quercetin, zinc, vitamin D and C protocol for low-ris...

Exosomes vs PRP Therapy vs Stem Cells: What's the Difference? (2025 Edition)

By
Image
In these past few years, stem cells, PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and exosomes have been hot topics among researchers and doctors. However, these forms of treatments are often mixed up and are confusing for most average consumers.  As of February 2025, there are  more than 300,000 studies  related to "stem cell",  more than 30,000 studies  published related to exosome and  more than 14,000 studies  related to PRP on PubMed (US NIH Library of Medicine Database).  Nevertheless, stem cell, PRP and exosome-related therapies are not yet established as standard treatments, given their relatively recent emergence. Regenerative medicine is also becoming a buzzword in the medical community. Why? Because the human body is specially equipped to heal itself, and regenerative therapies tap into this powerful ability. Regenerative medicine includes treatments like stem cell therapy, exosome therapy and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. Res...
