Pre-existing conditions affect your health and are risk factors for COVID-19. These underlying health conditions may negatively impact your physiological system by weakening its ability to fight off unwanted pathogens.
Optimize your body by understanding your health and potential risk factors. Give your body the best opportunity to fight illness, prevent and reverse chronic disease.
We are here for you. With early and proper

CONDITIONS THAT COMPROMISE YOUR HEALTH
Cancer
Cancer and treatments weaken the immune system, putting patients at risk for viral and bacterial infections. Cancer can weaken the immune system by spreading into the bone marrow.
Celiac Disease (and other gastrointestinal diseases)
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease that occurs in genetically predisposed people where the ingestion of gluten leads to damage in the small intestine and their body mounts an immune response that attacks the small intestine.
Chronic Fatigue
Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a debilitating long-term condition in which individuals experience exhaustion that is not helped by rest, as well as pain, mental fogginess and trouble with memory and sleep. Also known as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME). May be due to an immune dysfunction, triggered by an infection.
Crohn's Disease
Caused by a combination of factors like immune system dysregulation, genetics and environmental factors, causing chronic inflammation in the digestive system.
Diabetes
People with diabetes are more susceptible to developing infections, as high blood sugar levels can weaken the patient’s immune system defenses. Inflammation occurs as an immune response to high blood glucose, which further leads to damage of the pancreatic cells. Type I diabetes is autoimmune.
Fibromyalgia
A condition that causes pain all over the body (widespread pain), sleep problems, fatigue, and often emotional and mental distress.
Hashimoto's Thyroiditis
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, or inflammation of the thyroid gland, is an autoimmune disorder. It is caused by a malfunction in the immune system. Instead of protecting the thyroid tissue, the immune cells attack it, leading to hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid),, a goiter (enlarged thyroid), or both.
Heart Disease
May lead to problems like heart attacks and strokes, it’s the most common cause of death for both men and women in the United States. The damage caused by a heart attack triggers an inflammatory reaction which degrades the affected tissue.
Heavy Metal Toxicity
Heavy metals have a toxic and suppressive effect on the immune system. Mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic, nickel, and aluminum are poisonous heavy metals. Neurologically, mercury has been found to decrease the production of white blood cells, including T cells.
Hypertension
In hypertension, it is thought that initial tissue damage by elevated blood pressure releases cellular debris that signals a localized immune response. In genetically predisposed individuals, this initial immune priming may lead to a more potent immune response and additional organ damage and hypertension.
Hormonal Imbalance
Hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and cortisol all affect the immune system and its function.
Insomnia
Lack of sleep can affect your immune system. Studies show that people who don’t get quality sleep or enough sleep are more likely to get sick after being exposed to a virus, such as a common cold virus.
Irritable Bowel Disease (or IBS)
Affects the large intestine. Signs and symptoms include cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, gas, and diarrhea or constipation, or both. IBS is a chronic condition.
Lupus
Lupus is a long-term autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system becomes hyperactive and attacks normal, healthy tissue. Symptoms include inflammation, swelling, and damage to the joints, skin, kidneys, blood, heart, and lungs.
Lyme Disease
Lyme disease is a bacterial infection that’s caused by the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi. Untreated, Lyme disease may cause damage to your immune system and tissues.
Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease- the body’s immune system attacks its own body parts, such as tissue or nerves, instead of protecting them as it should. The immune system triggers MS activity because it causes inflammation, or swelling, in the central nervous system (CNS).
Psoriasis (skin rashes or other skin disorders)
Researchers agree that psoriatic disease is an autoimmune disease. That means that psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis are actually caused by an overactive immune system. In psoriatic disease, the immune system is targeting it’s own skin and joints.
Respiratory Conditions (asthma, emphysema, COPD)
Asthma and other respiratory diseases are often linked to the immune system and inflammation. This is because the immune system is thought to be a regulator of asthma and airways inflammation by producing too many immune factors in response to a stimuli that should not cause such a reaction.
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis develops when the immune system produces antibodies that attach to the linings of joints. Immune system cells then attack the joints, causing inflammation, swelling, and pain. If untreated, rheumatoid arthritis may gradually cause permanent joint damage.
Toxic Environment
Toxic effects of environmental chemicals impact the immune system.
“Your gastrointestinal tract houses 80% of your immune system.
Your microbiome matters. A healthy gut is paramount to good health.”
Optimizing Your Health
Will Keep You Healthy and Strong.
For your body’s health system to function well, it must act fast, be well controlled, not overreact and provide the body the protection it needs. Your body’s physiology requires certain resources to help it operate at its best.
Some of the ways we help your body is by bringing down inflammation, modulating the immune system, enhancing detoxification, boosting antioxidant status and fine-tuning nutrition.
The better your body functions, the better it may respond to possible infections.
