8 IMMUNOMODULATORY HERBS for VIRAL CYTOKINE STORMS — Ep. 150

In our earlier video on Medicinal Herbs for Viruses (https://youtu.be/fX9AYTmTuRM), we did a quick overview of cytokine storms, which seem to have lethal effects as it relates to the latest virus. I wanted to take the time to review what herbs specifically can be used to suppress certain cytokines that are implicated in said cytokine storms. This is in no way an exhaustive list, but a targeted one that hopefully sheds light for you on your proactive health journey. Additionally, keep in mind that I am in no way providing personalized medical advice. You should always consult with a trusted medical practitioner to find out what may work best for you. However, we hope this video can be of service in some way.
