The symptoms of COVID-19 are scary enough. What I personally find even more terrifying, is the long-haulers syndrome so many people struggle with months after “recovering” from acute COVID. In many people, lingering symptoms are occurring 6 to 9 months after COVID infection, hence the term long-haulers syndrome. It comes with a slew of symptoms, from fatigue and body aches to difficulty breathing, racing heart, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and more. COVID-19 was originally viewed as a respiratory disease but we’ve now gained a new understanding of its impact on our blood vessels and how that affects the entire body.
There’s no better person to dig into the vascular nature of COVID with than today’s guest on The Doctor’s Farmacy, Dr. William Li. Dr. William Li is an internationally renowned physician, scientist and author of one of my favorite books, the New York Times bestseller Eat to Beat Disease: The New Science of How Your Body Can Heal Itself. His groundbreaking work has led to the development of more than 30 new medical treatments and impacted care for more than 70 diseases including cancer, diabetes, blindness, heart disease and obesity. His TED Talk, “Can We Eat to Starve Cancer?” has garnered more than 11 million views. Dr. Li has appeared on Good Morning America, CNN, CNBC, Live with Kelly & Ryan and the Dr. Oz Show, and he has been featured in USA Today, Time Magazine, The Atlantic, Parade and O Magazine. He is president and medical director of the Angiogenesis Foundation and is leading research into COVID-19.

Hayman sir plzz make a video on terrible bad breath due to gerd
Plzzzz/x
@Arbaaz Manjiyani Search in YouTube and find the cure, fix treatment, and causes. Try causes first though
@ET Himself tried it all
@Arbaaz Manjiyani It is generally caused by low stomach acid although there is a valve just above the stomach which may be damaged and etc acid up and outa stomach – surgery likely required for the valve thing. Go see your GP
@Arbaaz Manjiyani Also, what have you tried?
@Arbaaz Manjiyani It can also be caused by eating the wrong foods or to much of them
2,5 years ago shortly after I had been diagnosed with uncurable cancer in my lymphsystem indolent type that transfered to an aggresive type I saw dr W Li’s tedtalk “can you starve cancer”
Then I bought his book, eat to beat deasease .
I followed his book together with dr Walter Longo from the beginning of my treatment.
Today I am perfectly healty I did not feel bad at all during my chemo or during my immunoterapi that just ended.
Thanks a lot for your youtube channel it means a lot.
@ingearven This is great to hear, I have been following Dr, Li for a few years as well as Dr. Hyman. A great cancer prevention supplement is Quality Selenium at 200 mcg – 400 mcg/day
@ET Himself
Thanks I eat brazilnuts but I also have pills.
@ingearven Yea. By the way, what did you learn from Dr. Longo that for sure helped? I studied him although I am not 100% convinced with his protocols, yet anyway.
@ingearven Beware of Brazil Nuts as they can have as little as 15 mcg and up to 80 mcg/nut. Long story about this
@ET Himself
Thanks for the tips. What I do I fast 1 day before and the day after my treatment this idea comes from dr Longo.
And before and after I eat pommegranate which is good foor the gutbacteria akermansia that boost the effect of immunoterapi according to dr Li.
One aspect of the long haul scenario seems to be a cytokine trickle rather than a cytokine storm per the blood profile studies of pathologist Bruce Patterson. This may be due, as alluded to, residual immune hidden virus or dead particle stimulation. As much as I live and recommend a functional medicine lifestyle, I’ve seen long haul resolution from the interferon releasing effects and cytokine decrease with a few pulses of ivermectin in about 80% of the patients I have treated. A low dose pulse of prednisone, in addition, has helped.
Can you explain what a pulse dose is? I am not sure I can get my doc to go for it but it sounds promising. I had a spike in CPR and Sed Rate in Feb and have yet to bring that back down with diet, sleep, etc. Thanks.
Did Dr William say that high saturated fats are bad? Please Doctors Hyman and William, explain!
Can he recommend good treatment for severe dry eye? I’ve tried everything I can think of …Omega-3’s, warm compresses, obsessive eye drops… my eyes are perfectly healthy on scan other than the bad dry eye that gives me blurry vision especially at night and difficulty reading and driving with the sun and I am a student for RMT and it’s affecting my ability to study and manage long periods of intake of informations whether online or books.
Omega 7, less known but works wonderful on me! Had the same, couldnt open my eyes without drops. Sea Buckthorn Oil 🙂 Good luck
@Gayane Afsar thank you!!
Sir please make a video about tinnitus
Thank you! Can hidden reservoirs of virus still be there for long haulers??? Yes, indeed!!! Thank you so much Dr. Li!Please keep doing you groundbreaking research and spreading your message. People like me have suffered long before there ever was covid, but at least this mess may lead to some answers for all of us.
I didn’t have COVID but after my first shot, Pfizer, I said I felt like it was healing my body. I don’t understand it. I do have MS but I felt like I was having some healing going on. I can’t explain what is healed but I felt it.
Thank you!
Thank you both for giving us truth and hope!!!! Both of you have changed my life and health in the past 2 years!!!❤️
How about steroid treatment for Long Haulers? And What to do about postural tachycardia?
Would LDN be a possible treatment for some long haulers?
Please do one about those who suffer from long term effects of the vaccine.
Interesting interview. Which vaccine has shown to help healing if you have had COVID? Also, would HCQ or Ivermectin help to rid the body of long term effects of COVID?
Hi there. I think that sitting on the couch all day and not being in fresh air is probably not a good idea for boosting the immune system.isnt it true that the more we are exposed to germs and viruses the stronger we can fight a Variation of a virus? Thank you for sharing your experiences. Have learned a lot from your Chanel.
