TWT: Is the New “Long Flu” Worse Than Covid Was?

We have heard about long-covid and long-haulers, but now there’s a new term emerging – long-flu.

While this may be a new term that is being shared I want you to know that it is nothing we haven’t seen before.

Similar to other post-viral inflammatory syndromes, we can uncover the root cause and work on restoring the body to equilibrium.

So on today’s #CabralConcept 2909, I want to go over what “long-flu” is, why we are hearing about it now, and what you can do to help your body overcome it. Enjoy the show and feel free to share your thoughts!

Show Highlights & Big Takeaways

1. What is The Long-Flu

Long flu is a combination of symptoms that are leftover once the body has fought off the flu virus. This might look like aches and pains, low energy, mold sensitivity, brain fog, and more.

2. Post Viral Inflammatory Syndrome

Long-flu, Long-covid, or Long-Haulers are just different names for the same thing, post viral inflammatory syndrome. The inflammation left in the body from fighting an illness or from antibiotics weakens the mitochondria which leaves you feeling lethargic and flu-like.

3. How to Overcome

In order to overcome post-viral inflammatory syndrome, we must first find the root cause and test to identify where your deficiencies are. Once we uncover this, we can build the body back up with an anti-inflammatory nutrition plan, focus on sleep, and incorporate gentle exercise.
