FLCCC I-Care Early Treatment Protocol (2023)

-

The Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care (FLCCC) Alliance was initially formed as a working group under “emergency” conditions of the early COVID-19 pandemic in response to multiple early reports of COVID patients with an inexplicably high need for prolonged mechanical ventilation and an excessive mortality associated with the prevailing “supportive care only” recommendations disseminated by the majority of national and international health care organizations.

Early treatment is critical and the most important factor in managing this disease. COVID-19 is a clinical diagnosis; a confirmed antigen or PCR test is not required. Treatment should be initiated immediately after the onset of flu-like symptoms. The multiple therapies and drugs in this protocol have different mechanisms of action and work synergistically during various phases of the disease.

About this Protocol

The information in this document is our recommended approach to COVID-19 based on the best (and most recent) literature. It is provided as guidance to healthcare providers worldwide on the early treatment of COVID-19. Patients should always consult with their provider before starting any medical treatment.

New medications may be added and/or changes made to doses of existing medications as further evidence emerges. Please be sure you are using the latest version of this protocol.


Update: The I-Care protocol has been updated several times. Please refer to their latest version: I-CARE protocol.


Ordinary Vitamin D3 Does not work in Acute Illness

According to this webinar (below) by Dr Pierre Kory and Dr. Keith Berkowitz:


Video time from 11:30 - 12:30: 

Vitamin D3 (ordinary form) does not work in acute illness. It doesn't become active for at least a week... Vitamin D3 is for prevention and you should continue to take it if your levels are below 50 ng/ml...

There is only one form of vitamin D that will have an acute impact and that is calcifediol (vitamin D3 analog).


d.velop Vitamin D Supplements 2400 IU, 20 mcg – High Potency Vitamin D3

Check Price on Amazon

Calcifediol, the form of vitamin D in d.velop, doesn’t need to be processed by the liver, it can be absorbed right into the bloodstream and throughout your body. That's why calcifediol is 3x more effective for raising vitamin D levels when compared to regular vitamin D on an equal microgram (mcg) basis.

Conclusion and Key Takeaway

If you are an average layperson, you will likely find this protocol overwhelming. This is a guide and may need to be personalized according to your unique situation. Always see or talk to your doctor before taking these drugs, supplements and over the counter products. 

Be aware that most of the 'treatment' doses for supplements are above the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) and therefore such doses should not be maintained on a long term basis. 

This guide may not be the answer to everything but it could be everything to you or your loved ones.

Notes:

  • Dosages for supplements: Be aware that most supplements have two categories of doses i.e. treatment (therapeutic dosages are normally higher than the RDA dosages) and 'maintenance' or 'preventive' doses that are based on the recommended daily value.
  • Duration for supplements: Most supplements (e.g. vitamin D, zinc, quercetin) for early treatment are given for 5 - 10 days. To continue for preventive purposes, dosages will need to be reduced as per the prevention or prophylaxis protocol.
  • You should ideally supplement your micro-nutrients from healthy and wholesome foods, fruits and vegetables.
  • Although ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine are relatively safe drugs, they are still synthetic chemicals that can have side effects. Vitamin D, C, Zinc and Quercetin are nutrients that your body require for optimal health. Nutrients are safer alternatives especially if your risk is low e.g. age below 50 and no other chronic illness. Discuss with your doctor on the benefit vs risk for each treatment. If you are on multiple medications, be aware of supplement-drug interactions that might enhance the possibilities of adverse effects.
  • Nutritional supplements are meant to tip the scales in favour of you in terms of your immune system and to improve your probability of a smooth recovery, if at all you do get COVID-19. 
Disclaimers: 
  • Please do not consider these protocols as personal medical advice, but as a recommendation for use by professional providers. Consult with your doctor, share the information on this website and discuss with her/him.
  • We are fans and affiliates of FLCCC. We do not represent FLCCC. Any opinions are our own.
  • Always see or talk to your doctor before taking these drugs, supplements and over the counter products. Be aware that most of the 'treatment' dosages are above the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) and therefore such dosages should not be maintained on a long term basis. 
  • The early treatment protocol protocol is a bridge to vaccines and a safety net for those who cannot or have not been vaccinated; or are vaccinated and have concerns regarding declining protection against emerging variants. Vaccines have shown efficacy in preventing the most severe outcomes of COVID-19 and are an important part of a multi-modal strategy that must also include early treatment. The decision to get a vaccine should be made in consultation with your health care provider. 
  • You still need to follow the advice given by CDC, WHO and your local authority in terms of local guidelines such as mask wearing, social distancing, vaccination and avoiding crowds. It's better to combine multiple strategies in order to defend yourself against this virus.
  • According to US NIH: "...Guidelines should not be considered mandates. The choice of what to do or not to do for an individual patient is ultimately decided by the patient and their provider."

FLCCC I-Recover Protocol: Post Vaccine Treatment Protocol (February 2023)

-
Image
Although no official definition exists for post-COVID-vaccine syndrome, a temporal correlation between a patient receiving a COVID-19 vaccine and beginning or worsening of clinical manifestations is sufficient to diagnose as a COVID-19 vaccine-induced injury, when the symptoms are unexplained by other concurrent causes. Note that there are significant overlaps between the symptoms and features of long COVID/ long-hauler syndrome  and post-vaccine syndrome. However, a number of clinical features appear to be characteristic of post-vaccine syndrome; most notably, severe neurological symptoms appear to be more common following vaccination. To complicate matters further, patients with long COVID are often also vaccinated, making the issue of definition more difficult. Since there are no published reports detailing the management of vaccine-injured patients, the FLCCC treatment approach is based on the postulated pathogenetic mechanism, clinical observation, and patient anecdotes.

20 Best Medical Cards in Malaysia 2023

-
Image
Private hospitals in Malaysia will normally require a deposit before they admit you. This can usually be paid by cash, debit card or credit card. However, if you have a medical card, most private hospitals will accept admission without the deposit (cashless admission), after receiving the guarantee letter from the medical insurance company. If you do not have a medical card, you might want to consider having one. Given the options available, it's not easy to decide which of these to choose from. We take a look at the most popular medical cards in Malaysia and try to assist you in deciding which gives you the best value.

I-CARE Insulin Resistance Protocol: Guide to Managing Insulin Resistance, Metabolic Syndrome and Type II Diabetes

-
Image
Insulin resistance has emerged in the last 50 years as the world’s most common disorder and the single largest cause of loss of life. Also known as ‘metabolic syndrome, it leads to conditions like high blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, and abnormal triglyceride and cholesterol levels. As this document makes clear, insulin resistance and type II diabetes are largely reversible through adopting healthy lifestyles. Treatments Intermittent fasting/time-restricted eating : This is the most efficient and effective way to lower insulin levels and restore insulin sensitivity. In addition, fasting has a profound benefit on the immune system, partly by stimulating the clearing of damaged cells (autophagy), damaged mitochondria (mitophagy), and misfolded and foreign proteins. Fasting also improves mitochondrial health and increases stem cell production, and is the most effective method to achieve sustained weight loss. Cautions and contraindications Avoid fasting

Glutathione vs NAD: What's the Difference?

-
Image
What's the difference between glutathione and NAD? We will cover the essentials and explain about each of these nutrients below.  What is Glutathione? Glutathione or GSH (tripeptide of glutamic acid, cysteine, and glycine) is referred to as the body’s “master antioxidant” or the “mother of all antioxidants” because it is your body’s primary and most prevalent protector, found in all mammalian tissue. Types of Glutathione There is a lot of confusion about GSH and what makes an effective glutathione supplement. There are different types, different formulas, and a lot of different companies saying different things. L-Glutathione or Reduced Glutathione because it is the most commonly found, least expensive, and the true core behind other forms you will find. There is some debate whether L-Glutathione alone can be effective taken orally. The theory being the enzymes in your stomach break it down before it can ever reach the blood stream and become useful. Some  evidence  suggests using

Dr Peter McCullough: Prescription and Over-the-Counter Treatments for Post-COVID Syndrome (2023)

-
Image
Over three years into the pandemic with nearly the entire country having become sick with SARS-CoV-2, a virus engineered to invade the body, there are millions suffering with long-hauler syndrome. Approximately half of patients admitted to the ICU with COVID-19 will have post-COVID syndrome which is now understood to be due to persistence of the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein within cells, tissues, and organs. Those vaccinated have been additionally loaded with Spike, so may have even a worse course with prolonged symptoms including fatigue, lethargy, brain fog, muscle loss, skin and hair changes, sleeplessness, and effort intolerance. The magnitude of the problem has driven an all-encompassing search for management strategies to resolve the syndrome(s). Hope is on the horizon with a preprint paper published by Halma et al summarizing the prescription drug and over-the-counter candidates for therapy. In my practice, I stylize the approach based on the patient and how recent the COVID-19 infe

7 Best Carbon Credit Cards for 2023: Reduce Your Carbon Footprint and Save Money

-
Image
As the world inches closer to crossing the 1.5 degrees Celsius temperature limit, it’s becoming clear that our consumption patterns play a pivotal role in influencing the direction of climate change. That’s because our individual actions contribute to our carbon footprint. What we eat, how we travel, and what we choose to buy daily all impact the environment and the planet’s available resources. We cannot rely on governments alone to take action – being conscious of where we spend our money can help us choose environmentally-friendly options that protect the planet from further damage. A recent innovation, sometimes called a ‘carbon credit card’, is a tool that helps mitigate the carbon footprint of an individual’s purchases, while still offering the many of the perks and services of regular credit cards. What is a carbon credit card? A carbon credit card is a credit card that helps the user mitigate their carbon footprint, like how Aspiration plants a tree for each purchase made using
