AVD: The Anti-Viral Diet: 2022: 1 (HEALTH)

“I quite agree with your idea of improving immunity through diet, the necessity of having adequate nutritional status for a sufficient response to the COVID vaccine.” - Prof. Margaret Rayman (BSc, DPhil [Oxon], RNutr.) Surrey Distinguished Chair - Professor of Nutritional Medicine, University of Surrey, UK MANY SCIENTISTS HAVE RECENTLY BEEN ENQUIRING: "DOES AN 'ANTI-VIRAL DIET' REALLY EXIST?" A wide number of investigations into thousands of different dietary ingredients have been pursued, trying to answer questions like: Can consumption of certain foods enable the body to deter some viruses? Can an 'anti-viral diet' increase vaccine efficacy and decrease side effect risks? Can the eating of specific foods improve the responsiveness of the immune system? Is following an 'anti-viral diet' possible for people with all types of allergies? This newly revised and enlarged Fourth Edition of 'AVD: The Anti-Viral Diet' [A Report on Phase 1 of the 'AVD Research Project'] presents the results of the most recent, cutting-edge scientific research into the anti-viral properties of widely available foods - as well as of some rarer ingredients. Most significantly, this report confirms - among other conclusions - that good nutritional status increases vaccine efficacy and decreases the probability of suffering the dangerous side effects of some vaccines. Up-to-date research, shared in this new edition for 2021-22, reveals the key breakthroughs made in Dietetics and Nutritional Science which confirm that inclusion of a specific combination of micronutrients in a person's diet increases immune system responsiveness to a wide variety of COVID-19 vaccines, whilst also decreasing the risk of severe adverse events, including death. Edouard d'Araille, project lead of theAVD Research Program[at 'The Academy of the Third Millennium' ]describes an 'Anti-Viral Diet' as:"A diet whose primary purpose is to counteract viral threats and to optimize the ability of our immune systems to fight off both viruses and viral diseases". This publication presents, not only a description of the general theory of an 'Anti-Viral Diet' but also the findings from over 2000 scientists and medical researchers confirming anti-viral and immunomodulatory properties of over 50 dietary ingredients. Citations and extracts from over 1000 research articles allows a broad range of scientists to speak in their own words about key discoveries in nutritional immunology and anti-viral dietetics. POSITIVE NEW FINDINGS in relation to HUMAN DIET & VIRUSES shared in 'AVD', include that: Scientific research shows that specific dietary ingredients deter viruses via a variety of biochemical mechanisms. Evidence proves that several ingredients increase the responsiveness of the immune system. Combinations of certain micronutrients increase vaccine efficacy and decrease the side effect risks. At the core of 'AVD' is a database of 52 Anti-Viral Dietary Ingredients with detailed specifications + 104 color photographs. Key info is provided on each of the identified ingredients, including against which viruses they have exhibited potent effects, how they 'boost' the Immune System, as well as key data about Recommended Daily Allowances. Every section includes research findings based on at least two dozen articles (mainly from peer-reviewed journals) in support of Anti-Viral and/or Immunomodulatory Qualities evidenced in that ingredient. Weblinks are provided to the online 'AVD Research Database' of The Academy of the Third Millennium and over 300 extra pages of research data is provided in this enlarged 4th Edition.
