GERD stands for gastroesophageal reflux disease. So how does long COVID lead to GERD? A new study published on January 12, 2024, reveals that the risk of severe digestive conditions persists for months after an active SARS-CoV-2 infection, the virus responsible for COVID-19. These findings add gastrointestinal dysfunction and GERD to the expanding list
Autoimmune hepatitis occurs when the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks your liver cells. Gene mutations or post-infectious autoimmune disorders can trigger this condition. Post-COVID-19 infection can cause it. The attack leads to inflammation, manifesting as redness, swelling, and pain (though you may not experience pain). It also results in damage to the liver and
Currently there are no clinic or laboratory tests that can definitively diagnose a patient with Long COVID. However, symptoms such as myalgia or lingering cough are possible indicators of the condition. These symptoms may persist 4 to 6 weeks following a COVID-19 infection. While many people can recover from COVID-19 in a few weeks,
Cancer is a complex illness. How did ancient medicine address it?

We believe that medical herbs can help in treating hepatitis for various reasons. Hepatitis A, B, or C, as well as COVID-19 and its variants, can cause a range of symptoms and damage multiple organs post-infection. The liver is particularly susceptible to damage, as indicated by elevated levels of the enzymes ALT and AST.
