Antiviral Quick-Start Guide
Reigns MethodTM XII advanced therapy for acute and chronic viral infections is a specific program designed to starve viruses of their required foods, create an inhospitable home for the virus, strengthen your immune system, and rebuild your microbiome.
This is a suitable guide for all viral infections, both those you may already be dealing with, and those you wish to avoid. In this document, we will go through all of the “whys” behind the recommendations in the Method. You may commence with the Method as soon as you feel ready.
“There are over 400 different viruses that can affect your health, and over 200 viruses that can cause a common cold. No matter if you have the flu or another virus, there’s a LOT you can do to build your immune system and eat in ways that will clear a virus. Other virus-based illnesses include coronavirus, chicken pox, mumps, hepatitis, meningitis, pneumonia, herpes, mononucleosis, Epstein-Barr, and AIDS. It’s time to say good-bye to viruses!”
“Viruses require arginine (an amino acid) to replicate and thrive in your body. Depriving the virus of arginine is incredibly important.” - Mary Setchell Ruddick, Certified Nutritionist
A note on the immune system:
• 80% of the human immune system is developed within the gut lining. It is separated by your food intake by an absorptive membrane (epithelium) that is one cell thick. Your food can directly support or impair your immune function.
• The immune system has a primary food, and that food is saturated fat and cholesterol. Without ample saturated fat intake, the immune system cannot properly regenerate.
• Lectins (‘sticky’ proteins found within certain foods, especially plant matter) can damage the immune system.
• There are both toxic and non-toxic lectins within plants. Only lectins that are toxic to human are an issue with those with poor immune function, and these must be avoided. These are found in foods like tomatoes, beans, bell peppers, zucchini, sunflower seeds, and peanuts.
• Plants also contain other toxins, in particular saponins, oxalates, phytates and a large number of alkaloids that are poisonous or can build up in the body causing a wide range of effects, in particular related to poor immune function but also endocrine, metabolic and nervous system dysfunctions.
• The food list and preparation methods in this guide helps you avoid the worst of these and also takes into account high arginine foods.
• Lectins are blocked or partially blocked by glyconutrients (oligosaccharides and polysaccharides).
• Lectins can be reduced by certain fermentation and cooking methods, but even these methods are not permitted until one has been in full remission for a significant amount of time.
